Economic Moat
Evidence of durable competitive advantage in the filed financials (10 years of history).
Profit margins and economic moats, explainedThe filed history looks like a business competitors struggle to attack: high and steady margins, revenue that grows through cycles, and strong returns on capital.
46.9% average over the last 3 years
±5.4 pts around 46.9% across 10 years
grew in 8 of the last 9 year-over-year periods
positive in 10 of 10 years
45.0% latest fiscal year
A moat can't be proven by numbers alone — this scores the evidence a durable advantage leaves behind (pricing power, consistency, returns on capital), computed the same way for every stock. Pair it with the business overview before concluding anything.
Technical Analysis (Educational)
Technical analysis reads price and volume to judge momentum and timing. It complements the fundamentals above — it does not replace them. Here is what PAC's chart says today, with each tool explained.
Trend — moving averages. A moving average is the average closing price over a window, which smooths out daily noise. PAC trades near $200.92, below its 50-day average ($245.44) and 200-day average ($246.87). Price below both averages is a downtrend — momentum is against buyers for now.
Momentum — RSI. The Relative Strength Index runs 0–100 and measures how strong recent gains are versus losses. Above 70 is "overbought", below 30 "oversold". At 70 it is overbought — the recent rally is stretched and can cool off.
MACD. MACD compares two moving averages to flag shifts in momentum. Its histogram is currently positive — short-term momentum is improving.
Volatility — ATR. Average True Range is the typical daily move. PAC's is $7.90 (~3.9% of price), so swings of about that size each day are normal — handy for setting a stop that isn't too tight.
Support & resistance. In the month to Jul 6, 2026, PAC found buyers near $220.82 (support) and sellers near $259.09 (resistance); its 52-week range then was $206.91–$300.41. A decisive break beyond either edge often marks the next move.
Volume. The latest session traded 0.3× the 20-day average — lighter than usual, so the move carries less conviction. Rising volume on up-days suggests real buying; on down-days, real selling.

Educational scenario model, not a forecast or investment advice. It starts from the latest annual revenue in SEC filings. By default, growth is trailing revenue growth (held between 3% and 45% a year), the net margin is the latest one (held between 3% and 50%, so a loss-making company is modeled with a small profit), and the Base case P/E runs from 60% to 100% of today's. Carrying recent growth forward five years can miss badly in either direction. Outputs are only as good as the assumptions.
Bull Case
The case for PAC:
- Revenue is growing 15.3% a year, a sign of real demand.
- High net margins (24.0%) point to pricing power or efficiency.
- Strong return on equity (45.5%) shows capital is put to work well.
- Healthy free-cash-flow yield (~9.1%) funds buybacks and dividends.
- Pays a 3.7% dividend on top of any price gains.
- Our model's overall read is Favorable (70/100).
Bear Case
The case against PAC:
- Elevated leverage (debt/equity 2.4x) adds financial risk.
- Like any single stock, it is exposed to competition, the economic cycle, and shifts in its end markets.
Key Risks
Balance-sheet risk — debt/equity of 2.4x magnifies the impact of higher rates or weaker earnings.
Market risk — sector rotation, the economic cycle, and broad sentiment move the stock regardless of fundamentals.
Investment Thesis
On balance, the fundamentals screen favourably: Grupo Aeroportuario del Pacifico SAB de CV is a large-cap transportation infrastructure business still growing nicely, with solid profitability, and a heavier debt load to watch. It trades at 18.9x earnings, which our model scores Favorable (70/100). Weigh this against your own goals and time horizon — this is educational information, not a recommendation.
