Grupo Aeroportuario del Pacífico
Mexican airport manager Grupo Aeroportuario del Pacifico, S.A.B. de C.V. ("Pacific Airports Group, LLC") is based in Guadalajara, Mexico. It runs 12 airports in the western states of Mexico and 2 in Jamaica, including those serving the popular tourist destinations of Los Cabos and Puerto Vallarta as well as two major towns in Mexico, Guadalajara and Tijuana. According to the number of passengers, it is Mexico's second-largest airport services provider. Only the operator of Mexico City International Airport handles more passengers than the airport's roughly 27 million annual travelers.
Since 2011, there has been a disagreement between GAP and one of its key owners, Grupo México, which owns more than 20% of the company and indicated plans to buy at least 30% of the company. According to GAP bylaws, shareholders cannot own more than 10% of the company's stock. Grupo México announced in 2015 that it had reduced its interest in GAP, but not to the extent required by GAP bylaws.
Since 2006, GAP has been listed on the Mexican Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange through ADRs. It is a component of the IPC, the Mexican Stock Exchange's primary benchmark index.
