Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated financial statements of SkyWest, Inc. (“SkyWest” or the “Company”), its operating subsidiary SkyWest Airlines, Inc. (“SkyWest Airlines”), its leasing subsidiary SkyWest Leasing, Inc. (“SkyWest Leasing”) and its charter service subsidiary SkyWest Charter, LLC (“SWC”) included herein have been prepared, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Company formed SWC in 2022, with the intent to offer on-demand charter service and public charter service to underserved communities in the United States. Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the following disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the results of operations for the interim periods presented. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature, unless otherwise disclosed. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. Due in part to the uncertain rate of recovery from workforce shortages, in addition to other factors, the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates and assumptions.
