His resignation is effective on April 20th, 2026.

 

“Alex Malfitani is one of Azul’s founders and has been truly instrumental in shaping the company we are today. He played a pivotal role in building our financial and strategic foundation and was behind several of our most meaningful initiatives. We are profoundly grateful to Alex for his exceptional leadership, his unwavering dedication, and the many lasting contributions he has made throughout Azul’s history. His legacy is deeply woven into Azul’s culture and will continue to guide who we are,” says John Rodgerson, Azul’s CEO.

 

With the resignation of Alex Malfitani, the Company announces that Mr. Antonio Carlos Garcia ("Antonio Garcia") will be appointed as Vice-President, Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and Investor Relations Officer (IRO), effective April 20th, 2026, subject to the approval of the Company’s Board of Directors.

Previously, he built a solid global career at ThyssenKrupp, working in Germany as the global CFO of the Forged Technologies business unit. He also held notable positions at the ZF Group in Brazil and at Siemens Group, where he worked across various business segments.

Antônio will bring additional strength to our leadership team and play a key role in helping us navigate and accelerate the next phase of the new Azul,” says John Rodgerson, Azul’s CEO.
