LATAM Airlines stock gained 2.77 percent to USD 52.20 on the NYSE on October 6, 2026, at 1:43 p.m. EDT. The move came as Delta and LATAM marked a four-year joint venture milestone with higher capacity and 17.4 million customers carried through July.
Delta partnership expands capacity
According to Delta Air Lines on October 5, 2026, the carriers operated 83,000 flights and offered 20.8 million seats between October 2022 and July 2026. Combined capacity increased 31 percent since 2023, giving LATAM a measurable international growth driver beyond its domestic markets.
Q2 results beat estimates
MarketBeat reported that LATAM posted USD 0.44 in Q2 2026 EPS against a USD 0.41 consensus estimate. Q2 revenue reached USD 4.12 billion versus USD 4.06 billion expected, a comparison that puts the latest operating performance ahead of forecasts.
MarketBeat also cited a Moderate Buy consensus from eight research firms, with six Buy ratings and two Holds. The average 12-month target of USD 66.27 lies 27.0 percent above the October 6 price of USD 52.20, although that target is a consensus measure rather than a single firm's forecast.
November brings the next test
According to LATAM Airlines Group in its October 2, 2026 release, third-quarter results will be published on November 3, 2026, after the market close. The company scheduled its results call for November 4, 2026, at 8:00 a.m. ET, making fuel costs, load factors and the capacity response central checkpoints for the next report.
