Phoenix Rising: Latam Airlines’ $530M Leap Back to NYSE
In a bold resurgence, Latam Airlines is set to relist on the New York Stock Exchange next Thursday, aiming to raise over $530 million.
Emerging from a challenging bankruptcy, Latin America’s largest airline’s anticipated market value stands at a robust $8.5 billion.
The public offering involves 19 million American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), each representing 2,000 shares. Market dynamics could trigger the release of an additional 2.85 million shares.
Key stakeholders include Sixth Street Funds, Marathon Funds, and Olympus Peak Funds, showcasing strong investor confidence.
The move was formalized last Thursday when Latam filed its prospectus with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
This step concluded months of meticulous planning and signaled Latam’s renewed commitment to enhancing its global presence.
Latam’s journey has been arduous. After filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in May 2020, similar to Gol’s current restructuring, the NYSE removed Latam.
By 2022, the airline had navigated through these challenges, ready to soar under the new ticker symbol “LTM”.
Shares will also become available in Chile, thereby enhancing Latam’s visibility on the Santiago Stock Exchange.
A consortium of leading banks, including Goldman Sachs, Barclays, and JP Morgan, spearheads the offering.
The syndicate extends to Citigroup, Santander US, Deutsche Bank, and others, emphasizing the scale and international interest in Latam’s relaunch.

This strategic decision coincides with a receptive American market, increasingly open to foreign enterprises.
Notably, companies from Peru, Mexico, and even Brazilian firm Moove have sought to capitalize on this trend, underscoring a global shift towards U.S. financial venues.
Latam’s return to the NYSE is not just a business maneuver; it reflects a broader narrative of recovery and ambition in post-pandemic global markets.
As Latam ascends again, it inspires global industries, showing that with the right strategy, companies can overcome challenges and thrive.
