FOR RELEASE: Thursday, July 24, 2025
AMERICAN AIRLINES REPORTS SECOND-QUARTER 2025 FINANCIAL RESULTS
FORT WORTH, Texas — American Airlines Group Inc. (NASDAQ: AAL) today reported its second-quarter 2025 financial results, including:
•Record quarterly revenue of $14.4 billion
•Second-quarter GAAP net income of $599 million, or $0.91 per diluted share
•Excluding net special items1, second-quarter net income of $628 million, or $0.95 per diluted share
•Second-quarter operating margin of approximately 8%
•Ended the quarter with $12 billion of total available liquidity
“American delivered record revenue in an evolving demand environment in the second quarter thanks to the hard work and dedication of our team,” said American’s CEO Robert Isom. “We remain confident that the actions we have taken over the past several years to refresh our fleet, manage costs and strengthen our balance sheet position us well for the future. The investments we have made toward achieving our revenue potential, including bolstering our network, customer experience and loyalty program, are paying off, and the team remains focused on delivering on our long-term strategy.”
Revenue performance
American produced record quarterly revenue of $14.4 billion. The company continued the restoration of revenue from indirect channels, driven by a faster-than-expected recovery in leisure channels, further solidifying its plan to return to historical share of indirect channel revenue exiting this year. American saw continued strength in premium cabin demand in the second quarter, particularly to long-haul international destinations. All international entities delivered positive unit revenue growth year over year, with Atlantic passenger unit revenue up 5%. These results contributed to American’s industry-leading passenger unit revenue year-over-year improvement for the fourth consecutive quarter.
AAdvantage program and co-branded credit card performance
American continues to see strong engagement with its industry-leading AAdvantage® loyalty program, with active accounts up 7% year over year. Spending on co-branded credit cards increased 6% year over year as customers continue to value earning rewards for future travel with American.
Customer experience
American’s new Customer Experience organization continues to make meaningful progress in elevating the travel journey. In the second quarter, American introduced the ability for customers to use miles as a form of payment for instant upgrades and announced plans to open a new Flagship® lounge and nearly double the amount of lounge space at Miami International Airport.

American also debuted its new Flagship Suite®, an elevated premium inflight experience that is expected to expand to more destinations this winter.
Operational performance
The American team delivered a resilient operation in the second quarter, which had a 36% increase in disruptive operational events year over year primarily driven by increased storm activity at the airline’s hubs in Dallas-Fort Worth, Chicago, Washington, D.C., and the Northeast. American continues to demonstrate its ability to quickly recover from irregular operations, and its investments in technology are driving additional enhancements to both reliability and the customer experience.
Balance sheet and liquidity
The company’s operating cash flow of $3.4 billion and free cash flow2 generation of $2.5 billion in the first half of 2025 enabled further strengthening of its balance sheet. The company ended the second quarter with $38 billion of total debt3 and $29 billion of net debt4. The company ended the second quarter with $12 billion of total available liquidity, comprised of cash and short-term investments plus undrawn capacity under revolving credit and other facilities.
Guidance and investor update
Based on its current booked revenue, expectations of future demand trends and fuel price, and excluding the impact of special items, the company expects a third-quarter 2025 adjusted loss per diluted share5 to be between ($0.10) and ($0.60). Based on recent booking trends, American expects its full-year adjusted earnings (loss) per diluted share5 to be between ($0.20) and $0.80, with a mid-point of $0.30. The company believes the top end of the range is achievable if demand in the domestic market continues to strengthen and only expects to be at the bottom end of the range if there were to be macro weaknesses that are not seen today.
For additional financial forecasting detail, please refer to the company’s investor update, furnished, together with this press release, with the SEC on a current report on Form 8-K. This filing is also available at aa.com/investorrelations.
Conference call and webcast details
The company will conduct a live audio webcast of its financial results conference call at 7:30 a.m. CT today. The call will be available to the public on a listen-only basis at
aa.com/investorrelations. An archive of the webcast will be available through Aug. 24, 2025.
Notes

Reconciliation of GAAP Financial Information to Non-GAAP Financial Information
American Airlines Group Inc. (the Company) sometimes uses financial measures that are derived from the condensed consolidated financial statements but that are not presented in accordance with GAAP to understand and evaluate its current operating performance and to allow for period-to-period comparisons. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures may also provide useful information to investors and others. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP measures of other companies, and should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, any measure of performance, cash flow or liquidity prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company is providing a reconciliation of reported non-GAAP financial measures to their comparable financial measures on a GAAP basis.
The tables below present the reconciliations of the following GAAP measures to their non-GAAP measures:
–Operating Income (GAAP measure) to Operating Income Excluding Net Special Items (non-GAAP measure)
–Operating Margin (GAAP measure) to Operating Margin Excluding Net Special Items (non-GAAP measure)
–Pre-Tax Income (GAAP measure) to Pre-Tax Income Excluding Net Special Items (non-GAAP measure)
–Pre-Tax Margin (GAAP measure) to Pre-Tax Margin Excluding Net Special Items (non-GAAP measure)
–Net Income (GAAP measure) to Net Income Excluding Net Special Items (non-GAAP measure)
–Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share (GAAP measure) to Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share Excluding Net Special Items (non-GAAP measure)
Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate the Company's current operating performance and to allow for period-to-period comparisons. As net special items may vary from period-to-period in nature and amount, the adjustment to exclude net special items provides management with an additional tool to understand the Company’s core operating performance.
Additionally, the tables below present the reconciliations of total operating costs (GAAP measure) to total operating costs excluding net special items and fuel (non-GAAP measure) and total operating costs per ASM (CASM) to CASM excluding net special items and fuel. Management uses total operating costs excluding net special items and fuel and CASM excluding net special items and fuel to evaluate the Company's current operating performance and for period-to-period comparisons. The price of fuel, over which the Company has no control, impacts the comparability of period-to-period financial performance. The adjustment to exclude fuel and net special items provides management with an additional tool to understand and analyze the Company’s non-fuel costs and core operating performance.

Free Cash Flow
The Company's free cash flow summary is presented in the table below, which is a non-GAAP measure that management believes is useful information to investors and others in evaluating the Company's ability to generate cash from its core operating performance that is available for use to reinvest in the business or to reduce debt. The Company defines free cash flows as net cash provided by operating activities less net cash used in investing activities, adjusted for (1) net purchases of short-term investments and (2) change in restricted cash. We believe that calculating free cash flow as adjusted for these items is more useful for investors because short-term investment activity and restricted cash are not representative of activity core to our operations.
This non-GAAP measure may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP measures of other companies, and should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, any measure of performance, cash flow or liquidity prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our calculation of free cash flow is not intended, and should not be used, to measure the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures because, among other things, it excludes mandatory debt service requirements and certain other non-discretionary expenditures.

CASM-ex is cost per available seat mile excluding fuel and net special items and is a non-GAAP measure.

GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation Reconciliation of GAAP Financial Information to Non-GAAP Financial Information American Airlines Group Inc. (the Company) sometimes uses financial measures that are derived from the condensed consolidated financial statements but that are not presented in accordance with GAAP to understand and evaluate its current operating performance and to allow for period-to-period comparisons.

As net special items may vary from period-to-period in nature and amount, the adjustment to exclude net special items provides management with an additional tool to understand the Company’s core operating performance. Additionally, the tables below present the reconciliations of total operating costs (GAAP measure) to total operating costs excluding net special items and fuel (non- GAAP measure) and total operating costs per available seat mile (CASM) to CASM excluding net special items and fuel. Management uses total operating costs excluding net special items and fuel and CASM excluding net special items and fuel to evaluate the Company's current operating performance and for period-to-period comparisons. The price of fuel, over which the Company has no control, impacts the comparability of period-to-period financial performance. The adjustment to exclude fuel and net special items provides management with an additional tool to understand and analyze the Company’s non-fuel costs and core operating performance. 14

Free cash flow reconciliation The Company's free cash flow summary is presented in the table below, which is a non-GAAP measure that management believes is useful information to investors and others in evaluating the Company's ability to generate cash from its core operating performance that is available for use to reinvest in the business or to reduce debt. The Company defines free cash flows as net cash provided by operating activities less net cash used in investing activities, adjusted for (1) net purchases of short-term investments and (2) change in restricted cash. We believe that calculating free cash flow as adjusted for these items is more useful for investors because short-term investment activity and restricted cash are not representative of activity core to our operations. This non-GAAP measure may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP measures of other companies, and should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, any measure of performance, cash flow or liquidity prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our calculation of free cash flow is not intended, and should not be used, to measure the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures because, among other things, it excludes mandatory debt service requirements and certain other non-discretionary expenditures. 3 Months Ended June 30, 2025 6 Months Ended June 30, 2025 (in millions) Net cash provided by operating activities $ 963 $ 3,419 Adjusted net cash used in investing activities (1) (172) (917) Free cash flow $ 791 $ 2,502 (1) The following table provides a reconciliation of adjusted net cash used in investing activities: Net cash used in investing activities $ (1,274) $ (2,478) Adjustments: Net purchases of short-term investments 1,104 1,561 Change in restricted cash (2) - Adjusted net cash used in investing activities $ (172) $ (917) 17


 
Adjusted EBITDAR margin reconciliation The Company's adjusted EBITDAR and adjusted EBITDAR margin are presented below, which are non-GAAP measures that management uses to evaluate the Company's current operating performance. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP measures of other companies, and should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, any measure of performance, cash flow or liquidity prepared in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDAR is defined as earnings excluding the impact of net special items before net interest and other nonoperating expenses, taxes, depreciation, amortization and aircraft rent. 3 Months Ended Adjusted EBITDAR June 30, 2025 (in millions) Operating income as reported $ 1,135 Adjustments: Aircraft rent (1) 305 Depreciation and amortization (1) 557 EBITDAR 1,997 Operating special items, net 47 Adjusted EBITDAR $ 2,044 Calculation of Adjusted EBITDAR Margin Adjusted EBITDAR $ 2,044 Total operating revenues as reported $ 14,392 Adjusted EBITDAR margin 14.2% (1) Includes amounts associated with regional operations that are reflected in regional expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. 18


 
Total debt and net debt reconciliation The Company's total debt and net debt are presented below, which are non-GAAP measures that management believes are useful for assessing the Company's debt profile. Total debt is defined as debt, finance and operating lease liabilities and pension obligations, and net debt is defined as total debt, net of unrestricted cash and short-term investments. Total Debt and Net Debt (at end of period) June 30, 2025 (in millions) Debt and finance leases $ 29,881 Operating lease liabilities 7,320 Pension obligations 775 Total debt 37,976 Less: cash and short-term investments 8,573 Net debt $ 29,403

Exhibit 99.3
Financial Update
July 24, 2025
General Overview
Capacity - The company expects its third-quarter capacity to be up approximately 2.0% to 3.0% versus the third quarter of 2024.
Total revenue - Third-quarter total revenue is expected to be down approximately 2.0% to up approximately 1.0% versus the third quarter of 2024.
CASM-ex1 - The company expects its third-quarter CASM-ex to be up approximately 2.5% to 4.5% versus the third quarter of 2024.
Adjusted operating margin1 - Based on current assumptions, the company expects its third-quarter adjusted operating margin to be approximately (1.0%) to 2.0%.
Third-quarter taxes - The company expects a benefit for income taxes at an estimated effective tax rate of approximately 20% for the third quarter, which is expected to be substantially non-cash.
Adjusted third-quarter EPS1 - Based on the assumptions outlined above, the company expects its third-quarter adjusted loss per diluted share to be between ($0.10) and ($0.60) based on an expected share count of 660.4 million shares2.
Adjusted full-year EPS1 - Based on recent booking trends, the company expects its full-year adjusted earnings (loss) per diluted share to be between ($0.20) and $0.80, with a mid-point of $0.30. The company believes the top end of the range is achievable if demand in the domestic market continues to strengthen and only expects to be at the bottom end of the range if there were to be macro weaknesses that are not seen today.
Full-year taxes - At the mid-point of guidance, the company anticipates a full-year tax rate of approximately 35%. This rate is sensitive to fluctuations in pre-tax earnings due to certain permanent book differences that are not tax deductible.
Free cash flow3 - Based on the assumptions outlined above, the company expects to generate positive free cash flow for the year.

Notes:
1.
Includes guidance on certain non-GAAP measures, which exclude, among other things, net special items. CASM-ex is cost per available seat mile (CASM) excluding fuel and net special items and is a non-GAAP measure. All adjusted operating margin and adjusted earnings (loss) per diluted share guidance excludes the impact of net special items and are non-GAAP measures. The company is unable to reconcile certain forward-looking information to GAAP as the nature or amount of net special items cannot be determined at this time. Numbers may not recalculate due to rounding.
2. Shares outstanding are based upon several estimates and assumptions, including average per share stock price and stock award activity. The number of shares in actual calculations of earnings (loss) per share will likely be different from those set forth above.
3. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less net cash used in investing activities, adjusted for (1) net purchases of short-term investments and (2) change in restricted cash.
4. Interest addback applicable for the full year earnings per diluted share calculation for 6.5% convertible note settled July 1, 2025, net of estimated profit sharing and tax effects.
