Heisann!

Da starter jeg dagen med gode nyheter fra 3 kvartal!

HOUSTON, Oct. 18, 2007 – Continental Airlines (NYSE: CAL) today reported third quarter 2007 net income of $241 million ($2.15 diluted earnings per share). Excluding a special charge of $12 million for pilot pension plan settlement charges, Continental recorded net income of $253 million ($2.25 diluted earnings per share), an improvement of 73 percent compared to the same period last year.

During the quarter, revenue grew 8.6 percent compared to the third quarter 2006, to a record $3.8 billion. Continental’s operating income increased 45.8 percent over the same period last year, to a third quarter record of $280 million.

“Our success is due to the hard work and dedication of my co-workers,” said Larry Kellner, Continental’s chairman and chief executive officer. “Their commitment to great service has enabled us to record the highest quarterly revenue in our company’s history.”

Through Sept. 30, 2007, the company has accrued $157 million for its current year profit sharing, a $59 million increase over the same nine-month period last year. The actual amount of profit sharing that the company will be able to distribute to employees in February 2008, could increase or decrease depending on the company’s fourth quarter financial results. Employees have also benefited from stock option appreciation. At yesterday’s closing stock price of $36.23 per share, the realized and unrealized gains from their options were approximately $200 million.

Tallene kommer inn! Her er Southwest!

DALLAS (AP) - Southwest Airlines today reports its third-quarter profit more than tripled from last year's quarter because its packing its planes fuller amid strong demand.

Net income for the three months ended September 30th rose to 162 million dollars, or 22 cents per share. Analysts polled by Thomson Financial had been expecting earnings averaging 21 cents per share.

The earnings figures include the effect of a 25 million-dollar charge to cover early retirement payments for about 7 percent of employees. They also include an 11 million-dollar charge related to Illinois state taxes. Southwest said the charges, which amounted to about 3 cents per share in total, weren't included in analysts' estimates.

Revenue increased almost 11 percent to 2.59 billion dollars. Analysts had predicted revenue of 2.58 billion dollars.

The Dallas-based airline says its load factor, which measures how many seats are filled by paying customers, rose to a record 76.6 percent during the quarter.

Og her er United som også begynner å gjøre det bra (Netto $334mill)

http://ir.united.com/phoenix.zhtml?c=83680&p=irol-newsArticle&ID=1065956&highlight=

Men med muligheter for å sammenligne epler mot pærer akkurat nå (har en mistanke om at jeg gjør det siden jeg ikke er sikker på om alle tallene er net income after tax) så er dette status for de amerikanske til nå i 3. kvartal

American - $175 million - $5.9 billion revenue
United - $334 million - $5.53 billion revenue
Delta - $363 million - $5.2 billion revenue
Continental - $241 million - $3.82 billion revenue
Southwest - $162 million - $2.59 billion revenue

US og NW har ikke sluppet sine tall ennå

Og den var de som produserer flyene også ute med resultatene. $1,1 milliard i overskudd for Boeing i 3. kvartal.


Andre ting de nevnte er at de nå har en ordre reserve på neste $300 millarder, men at de skrur ned forventningene til omsetningen i 2008 pga forsinkelser med 787.

Heisann!

Da viser NW gode resultater!

Northwest Airlines earned $244 million in net income for the third quarter, its first full reporting period out of bankruptcy protection, significantly reversing a net loss of $1.2 billion in the year-ago quarter when it was operating under Chapter 11.

President and CEO Doug Steenland hailed the "remarkable turnaround" and said the "strong performance makes it possible for us to continue to invest in the airline so that we can enhance shareholder value." One possible way of growing shareholder value, he said, is to spin off the WorldPerks frequent-flier program.

"Clearly this is worthy of further analysis," he told analysts and reporters yesterday. "You would only spin it off if you came to the conclusion that it would not hurt the airline. . .If you look at the results of [Air Canada's] Aeroplan and what Qantas is considering, it clearly does drive value. We're giving [it] a look" (ATWOnline, Aug. 15).

Third-quarter revenue dropped 0.9% to $3.38 billion owing to a planned reduction in flying to cope with operational challenges as well as problems in the cargo sector. Expenses decreased 4% to $2.92 billion, producing operating income of $459 million, a 25.4% increase over $366 million in the year-ago quarter. NWA said its third-quarter net income excluding reorganization items and taxes was $405 million, up 57% over $258 million earned on similar basis in the 2006 quarter.

Mainline traffic was flat at 19.2 billion RPMs on a 0.9% dip in capacity to 22.03 million ASMs, producing a load factor of 87.2%, up 1 point. Passenger yield improved 0.6% to 13.41 cents as PRASM lifted 1.9% to 11.7 cents and CASM fell 2% to 10.76 cents. CASM ex-fuel was flat at 7.3 cents.

Executives said there is room for improvement in NWA's cargo business, which saw a 16.5% decline in revenue to $212 million in the quarter. It is the only US international carrier operating freighters, with 12 747-200Fs focused mainly on transpacific activity. It is taking "very substantial actions" including opening an "in-route" line maintenance facility in Anchorage, and said it is "evaluating an alternative freighter solution" that may comprise either new or converted aircraft.
