Alaska Air Group expects third quarter 2024 results to be on “the better end of a previously guided EPS range," it said in a stock filing on October 21, 2024.
The company said it expects to “report the industry's best adjusted pre-tax margin performance for the quarter” both on Alaska Airlines and on a consolidated basis.
“Earnings per share and margin performance was driven by strong Alaska results, with positive revenue and cost performance in the quarter,” the company said.
The company closed its acquisition of Hawaiian Airlines late into the third quarter.
The group added: “Revenue trends experienced throughout the third quarter are continuing into the fourth quarter, with strong advanced booking performance for both the Alaska and Hawaiian networks.”
Alaska is expected to post its consolidated results on October 31, 2024.
