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.

财务和运营要点
梅萨航空(MESA)报告称,其2024财年第二季度的总营业收入为1.316亿美元,净收入为1170万美元,摊薄每股收益为0.28美元。由于这些业绩,其运营效率和财务状况得到了显著改善,这凸显了过去18个月中成功的重组努力。
E-175 运营的区块时段费率的提高,以及逐步淘汰剩余的 CRJ 资产的举措,使梅萨航空得以在十一个季度内实现其首个 GAAP 和调整后的净利润,这是其在此期间调整后息税折旧摊销前利润的最佳表现。此外,在过去的一年中,梅萨航空已将其总债务大幅减少了2.215亿美元,下降了36%。
战略转型和未来展望
随着资产基础的优化、利润率更高的 E-175 飞行转向以及强劲的试点渠道推动的飞行员流失率下降,梅萨航空对在不久的将来恢复稳定的盈利能力持乐观态度。
卓越运营和合同承诺
梅萨航空报告称,其在2024年第二季度与联合航空的业务的可控完成率为99.85%,较2023年第二季度的99.63%有所改善。该指标不包括由于天气和空中交通管制问题而取消的航班。
在2024年第二季度,梅萨总收入中约有98%来自其与联合航空的合同,其中包括80架大型飞机(E-175和CRJ-900的混合体)。2024 年第二季度的机队构成包括 56 架 E-175 和 24 架 CRJ-900。
租赁和资产管理
在本报告所述期间,梅萨航空成功关闭了与RASPRO融资租赁相关的另外五台发动机,并将两架CRJ飞机的运营租约重新谈判为全额摊销的收购租约。
这次重新谈判使租赁期内的付款减少了950万美元,表明了梅萨航空有效的资产和财务管理策略。
