$13.9B – $14.2B Total Revenue ($B) 2% – 4% YoY 11% – 13% Operating Margin $1.60 – $1.85 Earnings Per Share 3% – 4% ASMs YoY Approx. 3% CASM - Ex YoY $2.20 – $2.40 Fuel Price ($/gal) December Quarter 2024 1 Supplemental Financial Information October 10, 2024 (1) Non - GAAP measures (except ASMs YoY); Refer to Non - GAAP reconciliations for historical comparison figures Profit Sharing Delta’s broad - based employee profit sharing program pays 10% of the company’s adjusted annual profit to all eligible employees up to $2.5 billion and 20% above that amount. Delta incurs employer taxes and other costs which add 2% to 2.5% at the 10% level and 3% to 4% at the 20% level. Adjusted annual profit is calculated as the company’s annual pre - tax income before profit sharing expense, special items, and certain other items. Profit sharing expense is accrued at a blended rate based on the company’s estimated profitability for the full year , weighted by each period's relative profit. Any losses must be fully recovered before profit sharing expense begins accruing.

Non - GAAP Reconciliations Non - GAAP Financial Measures Delta sometimes uses information ("non - GAAP financial measures") that is derived from the Consolidated Financial Statements, but that is not presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”). Under the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules, non - GAAP financial measures may be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results. The tables below show reconciliations of the non - GAAP financial measures used in this update to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. The reconciliations may not calculate due to rounding. Delta is not able to reconcile certain forward looking non - GAAP financial measures without unreasonable effort because the adjusting items such as those used in the reconciliations below will not be known until the end of the indicated future periods and could be significant. Adjustments . The following reconciliations include certain adjustments to GAAP measures that are made to provide comparability between the reported periods, if applicable, and for the reasons indicated below: Third - party refinery sales . Refinery sales to third parties, and related expenses, are not related to our airline segment. Excluding these sales therefore provides a more meaningful comparison of our airline operations to the rest of the airline industry. Aircraft fuel and related taxes . The volatility in fuel prices impacts the comparability of year - over - year financial performance. The adjustment for aircraft fuel and related taxes allows investors to better understand and analyze our non - fuel costs and year - over - year financial performance. Profit sharing . We adjust for profit sharing because this adjustment allows investors to better understand and analyze our recurring cost performance and provides a more meaningful comparison of our core operating costs to the airline industry.
