Highlights Of The Financial And Operational
Mesa Air (MESA) reported total operating revenue of $131.6 million and net income of $11.7 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, during the second quarter of its fiscal year 2024. Its operational effectiveness and financial health have significantly improved as a result of these results, which highlight the successful restructuring efforts made over the previous 18 months.
Enhanced block-hour rates for E-175 operations, along with initiatives to phase out surplus CRJ assets, enabled Mesa Air to achieve its first GAAP and adjusted net profits in eleven quarters, marking its best adjusted EBITDAR performance during this period. Additionally, Mesa Air has significantly reduced its total debt by $221.5 million, or 36%, over the past year.
Strategic Transition And Future Outlook
With an optimized asset base, a shift towards higher-margin E-175 flying, and a decline in pilot attrition bolstered by a strong pilot pipeline, Mesa Air is optimistic about returning to consistent profitability in the near future.
Operational Excellence And Contractual Commitments
Mesa Air reported a controllable completion factor of 99.85% for its operations with United Airlines during Q2 2024, an improvement from the 99.63% recorded in Q2 2023. This metric excludes cancellations due to weather and air traffic control issues.
In Q2 2024, approximately 98% of Mesa's total revenue was derived from its contract with United Airlines, which includes 80 large jets (a mix of E-175s and CRJ-900s). The fleet composition for Q2 2024 included 56 E-175s and 24 CRJ-900s.
Lease And Asset Management
During the reported period, Mesa Air successfully closed on five additional engines associated with the RASPRO finance lease and renegotiated operating leases on two CRJ aircraft into a fully amortized buyout lease.
This renegotiation reduced payments by $9.5 million over the life of the lease, demonstrating Mesa Air's effective asset and financial management strategies.

財務和運營要點
梅薩航空(MESA)報告稱,其2024財年第二季度的總營業收入爲1.316億美元,淨收入爲1170萬美元,攤薄每股收益爲0.28美元。由於這些業績,其運營效率和財務狀況得到了顯著改善,這凸顯了過去18個月中成功的重組努力。
E-175 運營的區塊時段費率的提高,以及逐步淘汰剩餘的 CRJ 資產的舉措,使梅薩航空得以在十一個季度內實現其首個 GAAP 和調整後的淨利潤,這是其在此期間調整後息稅折舊攤銷前利潤的最佳表現。此外,在過去的一年中,梅薩航空已將其總債務大幅減少了2.215億美元,下降了36%。
戰略轉型和未來展望
隨着資產基礎的優化、利潤率更高的 E-175 飛行轉向以及強勁的試點渠道推動的飛行員流失率下降,梅薩航空對在不久的將來恢復穩定的盈利能力持樂觀態度。
卓越運營和合同承諾
梅薩航空報告稱,其在2024年第二季度與聯合航空的業務的可控完成率爲99.85%,較2023年第二季度的99.63%有所改善。該指標不包括由於天氣和空中交通管制問題而取消的航班。
在2024年第二季度,梅薩總收入中約有98%來自其與聯合航空的合同,其中包括80架大型飛機(E-175和CRJ-900的混合體)。2024 年第二季度的機隊構成包括 56 架 E-175 和 24 架 CRJ-900。
租賃和資產管理
在本報告所述期間,梅薩航空成功關閉了與RASPRO融資租賃相關的另外五臺發動機,並將兩架CRJ飛機的運營租約重新談判爲全額攤銷的收購租約。
這次重新談判使租賃期內的付款減少了950萬美元,表明了梅薩航空有效的資產和財務管理策略。
