"Risk Factors” within the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
NOTE 1. GENERAL AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization and basis of presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Alaska Air Group (Air Group, or "the Company"), and its primary subsidiaries, Alaska Airlines, Inc. (Alaska), Horizon Air Industries, Inc. (Horizon), and, beginning September 18, 2024, Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. (Hawaiian). The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements also include McGee Air Services (McGee), a ground services subsidiary of Alaska, and other immaterial business units. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") for interim financial information. Consistent with these requirements, this Form 10-Q does not include all the information required by GAAP for complete financial statements. It should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. In the opinion of management, all adjustments have been made that are necessary to fairly present the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2025 and the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. Such adjustments were of a normal recurring nature. Certain rows, columns, figures, or percentages may not recalculate due to rounding.
In preparing these statements, the Company is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses, including impairment charges. Due to seasonal variations in the demand for air travel, the volatility of aircraft fuel prices, changes in global economic conditions, changes in the competitive environment, and other factors, operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the entire year.
NOTE 2. ACQUISITION OF HAWAIIAN HOLDINGS, INC.
On September 18, 2024, the Company completed its acquisition of Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. The Company paid shareholders $18.00 per share, or approximately $936 million in cash for 52 million outstanding voting shares of Hawaiian. An additional $41 million was paid in cash for change in control payments and settlement of accelerated and vested awards, resulting in total consideration of $977 million. The combination brings together two complementary networks and expands consumer choice across Hawai'i, the West Coast, and international destinations. Along with enhanced network utility, the combined carriers' diversified product offerings and focus on high quality service and operational performance enhance Air Group's competitive position.
Fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed
The transaction has been accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires, among other things, that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized on the balance sheet at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were determined using a market basis, relief from royalty, or multi-period excess earnings approach. As of March 31, 2025, the determination of fair values of property and equipment, certain liabilities included in other accrued liabilities and other liabilities, goodwill, intangible assets, and deferred income taxes was substantially complete, but is still considered provisional. Management will evaluate estimates and assumptions utilized to calculate fair value as new information is received, and will adjust amounts recorded as necessary up to one year following transaction close. There were no fair value adjustments made in the three months ended March 31, 2025.

NOTE 4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
In determining fair value, there is a three-level hierarchy based on the reliability of the inputs used.
Level 1 refers to fair values based on quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2 refers to fair values estimated using significant other observable inputs such as similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instrument in markets that are not active. Fair values for Level 2 instruments are determined using standard valuation models that incorporate inputs such as quoted prices for similar assets, interest rates, benchmark curves, credit ratings, and other observable inputs or market data.
Level 3 refers to fair values estimated using significant unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data and that are significant to the fair value of the assets. Fair values for Level 3 instruments are determined using future cash flows and discount rates, which include information obtained from third-party valuation sources and other market sources, including recent offers from potential buyers.
Fair value of financial instruments measured on a recurring basis
As of March 31, 2025, cost basis and fair value for marketable securities were $1.4 billion. Differences in cost basis and fair value of marketable securities are primarily a result of changes in interest rates and general market conditions. The Company does not believe any unrealized losses are the result of credit quality based on its evaluation of industry and duration exposure, credit ratings of the securities, liquidity profiles, and other observable information as of March 31, 2025.

Contingencies
The Company is a party to routine litigation matters incidental to its business and with respect to which no material liability is expected. Liabilities for litigation related contingencies are recorded when a loss is determined to be probable and estimable.
As part of the 2016 acquisition of Virgin America, Alaska assumed responsibility for the Virgin trademark license agreement with the Virgin Group. In 2019, pursuant to that agreement's venue provision, the Virgin Group sued Alaska in England, alleging that the agreement requires Alaska to pay $8 million per year as a minimum annual royalty through 2039, adjusted annually for inflation and irrespective of Alaska's actual use (or non-use) of the mark. Alaska stopped making royalty payments in 2019 after ending all use of the Virgin brand. On February 16, 2023, the commercial court issued a ruling adopting Virgin Group’s interpretation of the license agreement. The Company appealed the decision. On June 11, 2024, the appellate court issued a final decision affirming the lower court ruling in favor of the Virgin Group. Alaska also commenced a separate claim for breach of the agreement against the Virgin Group that may affect the Company’s total liability in the matter. Alaska holds an accrual for $57 million in Other accrued liabilities in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, representing the expenses associated with the trademark license agreement incurred through March 31, 2025, and management's current estimate of the amount due to the Virgin Group.

Credit card agreements
Alaska and Hawaiian have agreements with certain credit card companies to process the sale of tickets and other services. Under these agreements, there are material adverse change clauses that, if triggered, could result in the credit card companies holding back a reserve of up to 100% of the credit card receivable balance associated with that processor, which would result in a restriction of cash. For example, certain agreements require Alaska to maintain a reserve if Air Group's credit rating is downgraded to or below a rating specified by the agreement or if its cash and marketable securities balance fell below $500 million. The Company is not currently required to maintain any reserve under these agreements. If Air Group were unable to obtain a waiver of, or otherwise mitigate the increase in the restriction of cash, it could have a material impact on the Company's operations, business or financial condition.
NOTE 8. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
Common stock repurchase
In December 2024, the Board of Directors authorized a $1 billion share repurchase program. Under this program, the Company repurchased 1.8 million shares for $107 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025. As of March 31, 2025, the program has $893 million remaining.
CARES Act warrant issuances
As taxpayer protection required under the Payroll Support Program (PSP) under the CARES Act, the Company granted the U.S. government a total of 1,455,437 warrants to purchase ALK common stock in 2020 and 2021. An additional 427,080 warrants were issued in conjunction with a draw on the CARES Act Loan in 2020. The value of the warrants was estimated using a Black-Scholes option pricing model and was recorded in stockholders' equity at issuance. These warrants are non-voting, freely transferable, may be settled as net shares or in cash at the Company's option, and have a five-year term. In 2024, the warrants were sold at auction to a third party investor. The sale had no impact to the amount held on the Company's balance sheet.
In the first quarter of 2025, 1,660,705 of the warrants were exercised, with an exercise price of $31.61 for 1,355,206 warrants and $52.25 for 305,499 warrants, in a net share settlement for 809,768 shares of ALK common stock. As of March 31, 2025, there were 221,812 warrants outstanding, at an exercise price of $66.39.

NOTE 11. OPERATING SEGMENT INFORMATION
Alaska Air Group has three operating airlines – Alaska, Hawaiian, and Horizon. Each is regulated by the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Federal Aviation Administration. Alaska has CPAs for regional capacity with Horizon and SkyWest.
Air Group's Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) is its President and CEO. In the third quarter of 2024, the CODM began to review financial results for Hawaiian to assess performance and make resource allocation decisions for Air Group. As a result, the Company determined Hawaiian was an operating and reportable segment.
Air Group's network and schedules are centrally managed for all its operating airlines and CPA flying. Managing the business in an integrated manner enables the Company to leverage its comprehensive network, route scheduling system, and fleet as a single business. The CODM makes resource allocation decisions to deliver optimized consolidated financial results, regardless of the profitability of an individual segment. Air Group intends to combine Alaska and Hawaiian under a single operating certificate in the near term. At that time, management anticipates the discrete information provided to the CODM will similarly be combined. Management is considering other changes to internal reporting that may impact the discrete information provided to the CODM to better align with the way the business is managed. These changes may have an impact on the Company's reportable segments once finalized.
The CODM reviews financial performance information as part of three reportable operating segments which are described above:
•Alaska Airlines - includes scheduled air transportation on Alaska's Boeing aircraft for passengers and cargo.
•Hawaiian Airlines - includes scheduled air transportation on Hawaiian's Boeing and Airbus aircraft for passengers and cargo.
•Regional - includes Horizon's and other third-party carriers’ scheduled air transportation on E175 aircraft for passengers under CPAs. This segment includes the actual revenue and expenses associated with regional flying, as well as an allocation of corporate overhead incurred by Air Group on behalf of the regional operations.
The below tables present segment revenue and expenses for Air Group's reportable segments. Air Group's measure of segment profit or loss is pretax profit, which is used by the CODM to evaluate financial results. Additionally, reconciliations of the pretax profit of all reportable segments to Air Group's consolidated income before income tax are provided.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW
The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) is intended to help the reader understand our company and the present business environment. MD&A is provided as a supplement to – and should be read in conjunction with – our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. All statements in the following discussion that are not statements of historical information or descriptions of current accounting policy are forward-looking statements. Please consider our forward-looking statements in light of the risks referred to in this report’s introductory cautionary note and the risks mentioned in Item 1A. "Risk Factors" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. This overview summarizes the MD&A, which includes the following sections:
•First Quarter Review - highlights from the first quarter of 2025 outlining some of the major events that occurred during the period, as well as forward-looking statements.
•Results of Operations - an in-depth analysis of our financial and operational results for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
•Liquidity and Capital Resources - an overview of our financial position, analysis of cash flows, and relevant material cash commitments.
•GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations and Operating Statistics - reconciliations of reported non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial measures reported on a GAAP basis, as well as operating statistics we use to measure operating performance.
Dollar amounts in the MD&A are generally rounded to the nearest million. As a result, a manual recalculation of certain figures using these rounded amounts may not agree directly to our actual figures presented in the tables below.
Items affecting comparability
As Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. was acquired by Air Group on September 18, 2024, its financial results were not reflected in reported figures in the periods preceding the acquisition date. Due to the size of the two companies prior to the acquisition, the reported results for 2025 and 2024 are not comparable. To assist with the discussion of 2025 and 2024 results on a comparable basis and provide more meaningful discussion, certain supplemental unaudited pro forma income statement information is provided for the first quarter of 2024. Pro forma historical results were included with the Form 8-K filed on January 22, 2025. This information does not purport to reflect what our financial and operational results would have been had the acquisition been consummated at the beginning of the periods presented.
FIRST QUARTER REVIEW
Overview
We reported a loss before income tax under GAAP for the first quarter of 2025 of $233 million, compared to $178 million for the first quarter of 2024. On a pro forma basis, the pretax loss for the first quarter of 2024 was $343 million. Refer below for a more detailed discussion of the items impacting these results.
Labor update
In the first quarter, Alaska flight attendants, represented by the Association of Flight Attendants (AFA), ratified a new three-year Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) that includes wage increases and other improvements to benefits. Horizon is in negotiations with its pilots, represented by International Brotherhood of Teamsters (IBT), and its flight attendants, represented by AFA, for updated CBAs.
Subsequent to quarter end, Horizon technicians, represented by the Aircraft Mechanics Fraternal Association (AMFA) ratified a four-year CBA and Hawaiian flight attendants, represented by AFA, ratified a three-year extension of their existing CBA.
23

Alaska and Hawaiian are working towards joint collective bargaining agreements (JCBA) for workgroups represented by common unions. Alaska and Hawaiian have Transition and Process Agreements for certain workgroups which define the process for negotiating JCBAs and set forth interim agreements until a JCBA is reached.
Outlook
We remain focused on the successful integration of Hawaiian into Air Group. Looking ahead to the second quarter, on a pro forma basis, we anticipate capacity growth of 2% to 3%. We anticipate the percent change in unit revenue to be flat to down low single digits and the percent change in unit cost to be up mid to high single digits. Given recent economic uncertainty and volatility, we are not providing an update to our full year 2025 guidance. We are assessing a variety of scenarios, and expect to be profitable in 2025 even if revenue remains pressured throughout the second half of the year. Despite the softer macroeconomic outlook, areas of our business within our control are performing well and in line with our prior expectations.

The table below presents total operating revenue by principal geographic region (as defined by the U.S. Department of Transportation) and the percentage of change of certain operational results on a pro forma basis for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

| Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 |  | % Change vs. Pro forma Prior Year
(in millions) | Total Operating Revenue |  | Passenger Revenue |  | RPMs |  | ASMs |  | Yield |  | PRASM
Domestic | $ | 2,742 |  |  | 9% |  | 5% |  | 5% |  | 4% |  | 3%
Latin America | 242 |  |  | 8% |  | (1)% |  | (1)% |  | 9% |  | 9%
Pacific | 153 |  |  | 1% |  | —% |  | (7)% |  | —% |  | 7%
Total | $ | 3,137 |  |  | 9% |  | 4% |  | 4% |  | 5% |  | 5%

Passenger revenue
On a pro forma basis, Passenger revenue increased $223 million, or 9%, as traffic increased by 4% and yield grew by 5%. Hawaiian passenger revenue has improved meaningfully compared to 2024, driven by the integration of its operations into Air Group's combined network and increased asset utilization. Prior year results were negatively impacted by $150 million due to the B737-9 grounding in the first quarter of 2024.
Loyalty program other revenue
On a pro forma basis, Loyalty program other revenue increased $14 million, or 7%, due to higher commission revenue from bank card and third party partners driven by increased consumer spend. Incremental credit card acquisitions of the Alaska Airlines Visa Signature and Hawaiian Airlines World Elite Mastercard co-branded credit cards also contributed to the increase.
Cargo and other revenue
On a pro forma basis, Cargo and other revenue increased $23 million, or 23%, driven by an additional B737-800F aircraft in Alaska's cargo fleet and six additional A330-300F aircraft in Hawaiian's cargo fleet, utilized under the ATSA with Amazon, since the first quarter of 2024.
PRO FORMA OPERATING EXPENSES
On a pro forma basis, total operating expenses increased $132 million, or 4%. The changes, including the reconciliation of the impact of Hawaiian on the combined results, are summarized below. We believe it is useful to summarize operating expenses as follows, which is consistent with the way expenses are reported internally and evaluated by management:

Fuel expense
Aircraft fuel expense includes raw fuel expense plus the effect of mark-to-market adjustments to our fuel hedge portfolio as the value of that portfolio increases and decreases. Our aircraft fuel expense can be volatile because it includes these gains or losses in the value of the underlying instrument as crude oil prices increase or decrease. Raw fuel expense is defined as the price that we generally pay at the airport, or the “into-plane” price, including taxes and fees. Raw fuel prices are impacted by world oil prices and refining costs, which can vary by region in the U.S. Raw fuel expense approximates cash paid to suppliers and does not reflect the effect of our fuel hedges.
Alaska's fuel hedge program was suspended in 2023 and all remaining positions were settled as of March 31, 2025. Hawaiian's fuel hedge program, which uses crude oil call options, was suspended in the first quarter of 2025, and has open positions, based in Brent crude oil, that will settle through the third quarter of 2025. The call options are designed to effectively cap the cost of the crude oil component of our jet fuel purchases. With call options, we are hedged against volatile crude oil price increases and, during a period of decline in crude oil prices, we only forfeit cash previously paid for hedge premiums.
A summary of Hawaiian's Brent crude positions is provided below:

| Approximate % of Hawaiian's Expected Fuel Requirements |  | Weighted-Average Crude Oil Price per Barrel |  | Average Premium Cost per Barrel
Hawaiian: |  |  |  |  |
Second Quarter of 2025 | 19 | % |  | $93 |  | $2
Third Quarter of 2025 | 5 | % |  | $91 |  | $2

We evaluate economic fuel expense, which we define as raw fuel expense adjusted for the cash we receive from hedge counterparties for hedges that settle during the period and for the premium expense that we paid for those contracts. A key difference between aircraft fuel expense and economic fuel expense is the timing of gain or loss recognition on our hedge portfolio. Economic fuel expense includes gains and losses only when they are realized for those contracts that were settled during the period based on their original contract terms. We believe this is the best measure of the effect that fuel prices are currently having on our business as it most closely approximates the net cash outflow associated with purchasing fuel for our operations. Accordingly, many industry analysts evaluate our results using this measure, and it is the basis for most internal management reporting and incentive pay plans.

Fuel gallons |  |  | 262 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | 256 |

On a pro forma basis, aircraft fuel expense decreased $78 million, or 10%. Raw fuel expense decreased by 10%, primarily driven by lower refining margins associated with the conversion of crude oil to jet fuel, as well as lower per gallon costs on crude oil. Decreases were partially offset by higher fuel consumption consistent with increased capacity.
Losses recognized for hedges that settled during the first quarter were $3 million in 2025, compared to losses of $15 million in 2024. These amounts represent cash paid for premium expense, offset by any cash received from those hedges at settlement.

Non-fuel expense
The table below summarizes our operating expense line items, excluding fuel and other special items, on a pro forma basis. Generally, increases to these expenses are driven by capacity increases and growth of the Company's operations. Significant or unusual changes compared to 2024 on a pro forma basis are more fully described below.

Wages and benefits
The primary components of wages and benefits, including a reconciliation of 2024 on a pro forma basis, are shown in the following table:

| Three Months Ended March 31, |  | Change
(in millions) | 2025 |  | 2024 As Reported |  | 2024 Hawaiian Airlines |  | 2024 Pro forma |  | $ Change |  | % Change

Payroll taxes | 65 |  |  | 44 |  |  | 19 |  |  | 63 |  |  | 2 |  |  | 3%
Total Wages and benefits | $ | 1,127 |  |  | $ | 804 |  |  | $ | 257 |  |  | $ | 1,061 |  |  | $ | 66 |  |  | 6%

On a pro forma basis, wages and benefits increased by $66 million, or 6%, driven by higher wage rates across multiple labor groups since the first quarter of 2024. Increases were partially offset by nonrecurring wages from irregular operations following the B737-9 grounding in the first quarter of 2024.
Variable incentive pay
On a pro forma basis, variable incentive pay increased $13 million, or 27%, due to the inclusion of Hawaiian employees in the Company's Performance-Based Pay program in 2025, as well as an increased wage base.
Aircraft maintenance
On a pro forma basis, aircraft maintenance increased $22 million, or 11%, driven by higher rates for outside maintenance work, additional maintenance projects, and the addition of certain E175 engines to Horizon's power-by-the-hour contract since the first quarter of 2024.
27

Landing fees and other rentals
On a pro forma basis, landing fees and other rentals increased $30 million, or 14%, driven by increased volume of departures and landed weight. Increases to terminal rents were driven by higher rates and growth throughout the combined network.
Contracted services
On a pro forma basis, contracted services increased $16 million, or 12%, driven by higher rates charged by vendors as well as increased passengers throughout our combined network.
Depreciation and amortization
On a pro forma basis, depreciation and amortization increased $15 million, or 8%, primarily due to the addition of 20 owned aircraft to our airlines' fleets since the first quarter of 2024. Incremental depreciation on ground service and other equipment also contributed to the increase.
Third-party regional carrier expense
Third-party regional carrier expense, which represents payments made to SkyWest under the CPA with Alaska, increased $10 million, or 19%, driven by incremental departures and block hours operated by SkyWest.
Special items - operating
On a pro forma basis, special items increased $49 million, or 117%, driven by contractual changes to Alaska flight attendants' sick leave benefits and additional integration costs associated with the acquisition of Hawaiian Airlines. Fleet transition costs in the first quarter of 2024 did not recur in 2025.
Additional Segment Information
Refer to Note 11 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for a detailed description of each segment and a reconciliation of segment results to consolidated Air Group results. Below is a summary of each segment's results for the first quarter of 2025.
Alaska Airlines
Alaska Airlines reported a pretax loss, excluding special items and other adjustments, of $55 million in the first quarter of 2025, compared to a loss of $162 million in the same period in 2024. The $107 million improvement was primarily due to lost revenue and additional operational costs resulting from the B737-9 grounding in the first quarter of 2024. Growth in departures and revenue passengers also contributed to the increase. The improvement was partially offset by an increase in non-fuel operating expenses, driven largely by higher wages and variable costs associated with increased capacity.
Hawaiian Airlines
Hawaiian Airlines reported a pretax loss, excluding special items and other adjustments, of $88 million in the first quarter of 2025, compared to a loss on a pro forma basis of $173 million in the first quarter of 2024. Improved results were primarily driven by incorporating Hawaiian into Air Group's combined network, improved asset utilization, and lower fuel costs per gallon.
Regional
Regional reported a pretax loss of $10 million, excluding special items and other adjustments, in the first quarter of 2025, compared to a loss of $2 million in the same period in 2024. Higher operating expenses associated with increased capacity were partially offset by higher passenger revenue consistent with the increase in traffic.
28

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of March 31, 2025, we had cash and marketable securities of $2.5 billion. Our airlines have 113 unencumbered aircraft, which can be financed if necessary, and an $850 million bank line-of-credit facility with no outstanding borrowings. We expect our current cash and marketable securities balance, combined with our available sources of liquidity, are sufficient to fund our liquidity needs for the next 12 months. We expect to meet our liquidity needs for the foreseeable future using cash flows from our operations, our available sources of liquidity, and future financing arrangements. We discuss our sources and uses of cash in more detail below.
Operating cash flows
Cash provided by operating activities was $459 million during the first three months of 2025. Advance ticket sales and our co-branded credit card agreements are the primary sources of our operating cash flow. Our primary use of operating cash flow is for operating expenses, including payments for employee wages and benefits, aircraft fuel, payments to suppliers for goods and services, payments to lessors and airport authorities for leased aircraft, rents, and landing fees, and interest expense for our debt obligations. Additionally, we paid more than $300 million to employees in recognition of their 2024 Performance-Based Pay program achievements.
Investing cash flows
Capital expenditures to acquire aircraft, flight equipment, and other property and equipment are the primary purpose of our investing cash flow. We plan to incur approximately $1.4 billion to $1.6 billion in capital expenditures for 2025. We discuss our aircraft-related commitments in more detail below.
Cash used in investing activities was $381 million during the first three months of 2025. Property and equipment expenditures were $238 million, driven by the addition of one B787-9 aircraft as well as other flight equipment and ground equipment purchases. Net purchases of marketable securities were $134 million in 2025.
Financing cash flows
Cash provided by new financing arrangements is the primary source of our financing cash flow. Our primary uses of financing cash flow are payments of our debt and finance lease obligations, as well as share repurchases. Refer to Note 5 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for a detailed discussion of our debt balances, including a schedule outlining the time period of future payments.
Cash used in financing activities was $236 million during the first three months of 2025. Debt payments in the quarter were $156 million and cash paid for share repurchases was $105 million.

Debt-to-capitalization ratio, including leases | 58 | % |  | 58 | % |  | — pts

Material cash commitments
We have various contractual obligations that require material future outlays of cash. These obligations include the purchase of aircraft and other flight equipment, payments for Alaska's CPA with SkyWest, debt service payments, lease payments for aircraft and other property and equipment, costs for aircraft and engine maintenance, sponsorship and license agreements, and other miscellaneous agreements for services associated with operating and marketing our airlines. We also anticipate we may have material cash outlays associated with new technologies for the future of the business. Currently, Alaska and Hawaiian have agreements to purchase sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) to be delivered in the coming years. These agreements are dependent on suppliers' ability to obtain all required governmental and regulatory approvals, achieve commercial operation, and produce sufficient quantities of SAF.
We expect to satisfy these obligations using cash flows from our operations, our available sources of liquidity, and future financing arrangements. Within the notes accompanying our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, refer to Note 5 for discussion of scheduled debt obligations and Note 7 for discussion of aircraft-related purchase commitments and CPA obligations.
As of March 31, 2025, Alaska had firm orders to purchase 70 B737 aircraft with deliveries expected between 2025 and 2029. Alaska also had rights for 100 additional B737 aircraft through 2030. Hawaiian had firm orders to purchase 9 B787-9 aircraft with deliveries expected between 2025 and 2028. Horizon had firm orders to purchase 5 E175 aircraft with deliveries between 2025 and 2026.
Boeing has communicated that certain B737 and B787-9 aircraft are expected to be delivered later than the contracted delivery timing. For Alaska, this includes certain B737-9 aircraft contracted for delivery in 2024 that have moved to 2025, certain B737-8 aircraft contracted for delivery in 2024 and 2025 that have moved later in the contracted year or into the year following the contracted delivery, and certain B737-10 aircraft contracted for delivery in 2025 and 2026 that have moved to 2026 or 2027, pending certification of the aircraft type. For Hawaiian, this includes certain B787-9 aircraft contracted for delivery between 2024 and 2026 that have been moved later into the contracted year or into the year following the contracted delivery. Management expects that other Boeing aircraft deliveries could be delayed beyond the contractual delivery. The table below summarizes our fleet plan, reflecting Boeing's communications and management's internal expectations.

GAAP TO NON-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS AND OPERATING STATISTICS
We are providing reconciliations of reported non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable financial measures reported on a GAAP basis. We believe that consideration of these non-GAAP financial measures may be important to investors for the following reasons:
•By excluding certain costs from our unit metrics, we believe that we have better visibility into the results of operations. Our industry is highly competitive and is characterized by high fixed costs, so even a small reduction in non-fuel operating costs can result in a significant improvement in operating results. We believe that all U.S. carriers are similarly impacted by changes in jet fuel costs over the long run, so it is important for management and investors to understand the impact of company-specific cost drivers which are more controllable by management. We adjust for expenses related directly to our freighter aircraft operations, including those costs incurred under the ATSA with Amazon, to allow for better comparability to other carriers that do not operate freighter aircraft. We also exclude certain special charges as they are unusual or nonrecurring in nature and adjusting for these expenses allows management and investors to better understand our cost performance.
•CASMex is one of the most important measures used by management and by the Air Group Board of Directors in assessing cost performance. CASMex is also a measure commonly used by industry analysts, and we believe it is the basis by which they have historically compared our airline to others in the industry. The measure is also the subject of frequent questions from investors.
•Adjusted pretax income is an important metric for the employee incentive plan, which covers the majority of Air Group employees.
31

•Disclosure of the individual impact of certain noted items provides investors the ability to measure and monitor performance both with and without these special items. We believe that disclosing the impact of these items as noted above is important because it provides information on significant items that are not necessarily indicative of future performance. Industry analysts and investors consistently measure our performance without these items for better comparability between periods and among other airlines.
•Although we disclose our unit revenue, we do not, nor are we able to, evaluate unit revenue excluding the impact that changes in fuel costs have had on ticket prices. Fuel expense represents a large percentage of our total operating expenses. Fluctuations in fuel prices often drive changes in unit revenue in the mid-to-long term. Although we believe it is useful to evaluate non-fuel unit costs for the reasons noted above, we would caution readers of these financial statements not to place undue reliance on unit costs excluding fuel as a measure or predictor of future profitability because of the significant impact of fuel costs on our business.
Although we are presenting these non-GAAP amounts for the reasons above, investors and other readers should not consider them a substitute for GAAP figures.
