American Airlines Group Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAL#NASDAQ">AAL</a>), Alaska Air Group Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALK#NYSE">ALK</a>) and Southwest Airlines Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LUV#NYSE">LUV</a>) reported their quarterly results broadly in-line with the tone set by Delta Air Lines Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DAL#NYSE">DAL</a>) and United Airlines Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>), according to JPMorgan.
The Airlines Analyst: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/58485285ee7bf6000154d235/jamie-baker">Analyst Jamie Baker</a> maintained ratings, while cutting price targets.
<ul>
<li>American Airlines: Overweight, price target reduced from $26 to $19</li>
<li>Alaska Air Group: Overweight, price target cut from $89 to $73</li>
<li>Southwest Airlines: Underweight, price target trimmed from $30 to $23</li>
</ul>
"Low-end domestic demand is under significant pressure, premium and international remain the bright spots for now, and loyalty returns continue to help cushion the aggregate impact to earnings," Baker said in a note.

American: The company reported adjusted loss of 59 cents per share, slightly better than consensus of 69 cents per share, the analyst stated. "Passenger revenue was roughly flat, on capacity down 1pt YoY," he added. While American Airlines continue to make progress in recapturing its historical share of indirect revenue by yearend, its margin performance has been flat, Baker said.
Alaska Air Group: The company's adjusted loss came in at 77 cents per share, worse than its January guidance of between 70 and 50 cents per share, the analyst stated. "Management cited a 3pt top-line disruption from demand softness during the quarter, which (all things being equal) would have placed the company comfortably ahead of its guidance," he wrote.
Southwest: The company reported an adjusted loss of 13 cents per share. That&#8217;s better than the consensus of 18 cents per share. Total EBIT minus cost of initiatives implies an EBIT loss of $100 million — $447 million worse than in 2024, Baker said.
Price Action: At the time of publication on Friday, shares of:
<ul>
<li>American Airlines had risen by 0.30% to $9.64</li>
<li>Alaska Air had risen by 1.13% to $41.98</li>

Airlines Face 'Significant Pressure': Analysts Adjust Expectations After Q1 Results

The airline industry is back in the headlines, though not in a way that would make investors cheer. Another batch of earnings releases from large U.S. carriers—American Airlines (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAL#NASDAQ">AAL</a>), Southwest Airlines (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LUV#NYSE">LUV</a>), and Alaska Air (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALK#NYSE">ALK</a>)—has brought a somber message: the skies are cloudy for forward-looking guidance. As these airlines take back their 2025 outlooks in response to escalating macroeconomic uncertainty, investors holding <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">airline-themed ETFs</a> are replanning their altitude.
ETFs In Focus
These are the three most susceptible ETFs most exposed to the turbulence shaking up the skies:
U.S. Global Jets ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JETS#NYSE">JETS</a>)
This is the most widely held airline ETF among most investors, providing access to a portfolio of global airline shares, with a heavy U.S. bias. JETS has large stakes in Delta Air Lines (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DAL#NYSE">DAL</a>), United Airlines (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NYSE">UAL</a>), American, and Southwest—all of which have watched their share prices spiral downward more than 20% on an average so far into 2025. Needless to say, JETS has declined sharply year to date, almost 23%, both as a result of weaker domestic demand and increasing economic headwinds.

iShares Transportation Average ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IYT#BATS">IYT</a>)
Although not airline-centric, IYT does have high exposure to airlines, along with freight and logistics stocks. The fund has been stressed by weakness within the passenger air travel component, as air travel demand between the U.S. and other countries especially Canada, has been affected due to tariffs and is susceptible to additional challenges if the slowdown permeates to cargo and global travel.
SPDR S&amp;P Transportation ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XTN#NYSE">XTN</a>)
XTN provides equal-weighted exposure to the wider transportation space, including regional carriers. It&#8217;s more attuned to under-the-radar participants such as Alaska Air, which have fallen harder than their big-cap peers because they&#8217;ve been more dependent on domestic routes—now the weakest part of the market.
Guidance Cuts
Although first-quarter results were largely better than projected, the actual theater of action is in the empty forecast columns.
American Airlines topped revenue expectations and reported a smaller-than-expected Q1 loss, but <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44982328/american-airlines-flies-into-uncertainty-q1-revenue-miss-2025-outlook-pulled-but-debt-plan-on-track">withdrew its full-year forecast</a>, stating visibility is limited and clouds are dense.
Southwest seconded that view, regardless of record Q1 revenue, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/travel/25/04/44968055/southwest-airlines-tosses-out-profit-guidance-amid-macroeconomic-uncertainty-shares-slide-despite-better-than-expected-q1-results">withdrawing earnings guidance for 2025 and 2026</a> after experiencing demand weaken over the course of the quarter.
Alaska Air fell <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44976464/alaska-air-hit-by-demand-dip-in-q1-loss-skips-fy25-guidance-update-amid-uncertainty">short on revenue and sharply reduced Q2 expectations</a>, stating it is anticipating a 6 percentage point revenue hit from soft demand.
If investors were expecting clarity, they received fog instead.
Macro Headwinds And Tariff Crosswinds
Aside from consumer demand, geopolitics and trade tensions are also blowing fiercely. Tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump have contributed to growing economic uncertainty, with spillovers affecting airline sentiment. 
Boeing, meanwhile, is seeking to reroute dozens of undeliverable planes originally destined for Chinese customers. &#8220;We have many customers who want near-term deliveries, so we plan to redirect the supply to the stable demand. And we are not going to continue to build aircraft (and ship it) to customers who will not take them,&#8221; Boeing CEO Kelly Ortberg explained <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/44970516/boeing-adjusts-strategy-amid-trump-tariff-fallout-ceo-kelly-ortberg-says-wont-build-aircraft-for-customers-who-will-not-take-them-as-china-halts-deliveries">in the earnings call.</a>
So far this year, American Airlines has fallen 43%, Southwest is down 22%, Delta and United have slid 30% and 28%, respectively.
The domestic demand drag is evident across the board. Airlines are hoping that international and premium segments, currently holding up, don't catch the same cold, as expressed by TD Cowen analyst Tom Fitzgerald, <a href="https://www.barrons.com/articles/american-southwest-airlines-earnings-stock-price-498f8b9c">cited </a>by Barron&#8217;s. But that's a risky bet in a macro environment where clarity is more elusive than a free in-flight upgrade.
What's Next For Airline ETFs?
Investors are struggling with mixed signals: strong near-term performance in certain segments vs. gigantic uncertainty to come. Fitzgerald warned that airline stocks are likely to remain range-bound until more definitive economic data are available, citing risks to second-half 2025 and 2026 earnings estimates.
While airline ETFs might still be a long-term bargain—currently, investors are in a holding pattern. Until economic skies brighten, it may be best to have that seatbelt tightly buckled.

Airline Stocks Hit Headwinds As Carriers Cut Guidance, ETFs Enter Turbulence

United Airlines Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>) is expanding its push toward sustainable aviation with a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/04/n44976628/united-invests-in-next-generation-blended-wing-aircraft-start-up-jetzero">strategic investment in aerospace</a> startup JetZero, through its venture arm, United Airlines Ventures. 
The investment includes a potential deal to acquire as many as 200 futuristic aircraft featuring a "blended wing body" (BWB) configuration, engineered to remarkably cut emissions and boost fuel economy.
JetZero's Z4 aircraft concept, currently under development, integrates the wings and fuselage into a single aerodynamic structure, reducing drag and potentially halving fuel use per passenger mile. 
The project has also attracted U.S. military interest, with a $235 million contract from the U.S. Air Force helping to boost the prototype's development timeline.

JetZero plans to launch its full-size prototype by 2027. Should the project achieve its development goals, United may move forward with a purchase of 100 planes, with an additional 100 as an option. 
&#8220;If successful, JetZero has the potential to evolve our core mainline business by developing aircraft with a bigger, more comfortable cabin experience for our customers while increasing fuel efficiency across our network,&#8221; said Andrew Chang, head of United Airlines Ventures.
The aircraft is built to seat about 250 people and can operate on traditional jet fuel or sustainable alternatives.
The proposed Z4 cabin would offer wider seats, flexible configurations and increased overhead storage for every passenger. It's also expected to improve boarding with a broader entryway and multiple aisle paths to help passengers find their seats faster. It is engineered to fit seamlessly into existing airport gates and taxiways.
The aircraft's performance at higher cruising altitudes and its efficient aerodynamics are expected to reduce operational costs. For instance, a transatlantic flight from New York/Newark to Spain could burn 45% less fuel than current twin-aisle jets. 
The financial details of the investment were not disclosed.
UAL Price Action: United Airlines shares are trading lower by 0.54% at $68.68 at publication Friday.

Select Sector SPDR-Consumer Discretionary

Shares of companies in the broader consumer discretionary sector are trading higher after President Trump indicated tariffs against China will be lowered and trade tensions may de-escalate. Tariff concerns have weighed on the sector this year due to their expected impact on consumer spending.

TD Cowen analyst Tom Fitzgerald maintains United Airlines Holdings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>) with a Buy and raises the price target from $73 to $88.

TD Cowen Maintains Buy on United Airlines Holdings, Raises Price Target to $88

Two prominent Fed voiced issued strong public defenses of the central bank&#8217;s independence on Monday, calling out President Donald Trump&#8216;s attacks on Chair Jerome Powell as politically <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/jerome-powell">dangerous and economically destabilizing.</a>
Speaking Monday on CNBC, Richard Fisher, former president of the Dallas Fed, warned that Trump's repeated attacks on Powell could inflict serious long-term damage on the credibility of the Federal Reserve and the broader U.S. economy.
"The one thing you don't want to have happen is for the Fed to become politicized," Fisher said.
Fisher added that even if Trump could fire Powell, which remains legally uncertain, it would be a self-defeating move.
"I don't think it's in the president's interest to sack him. The markets would react extremely negatively," he said.
Fisher also highlighted that current uncertainty has already paralyzed corporate decision-making, referencing companies like United Airlines Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>), which recently offered dual earnings forecasts due to macroeconomic unpredictability.
"I think the president, frankly, is undermining his own case." "No business can make a decision here," Fisher said. "That uncertainty has been generated by the executive branch."
When asked whether Trump could legally demote or remove Powell, Fisher pointed to historical precedent—most notably in 1979, when President Jimmy Carter reassigned then-Fed Chair G. William Miller to Treasury Secretary after a period of poor economic performance and appointed Paul Volcker in his place. 
"I hope it doesn't come to push and shove," he said. "If it does, we're going to see further spread widening, higher interest rates and pressure that damages long-term confidence in the economy."
Fisher also pushed back on the assumption that Fed rate cuts would lower market interest rates, pointing out that recent episodes of easing were followed by yield spikes in longer-term bonds.
"After they cut 50 basis points and then did three more cuts, yields went up—not down. The 10-year rose by 100 basis points," Fisher said. "So even if you force cuts, the market may not respond how you think."
Ultimately, Fisher painted a picture of a market hamstrung by political volatility and a Fed cornered by noise from the White House.
&#8220;Forget about the stock market, the FED will always act if the credit markets become dysfunctional.&#8221;
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Goolsbee: Interference Means &#8216;Higher Inflation, Worse Growth&#8217;</h3>
Echoing Fisher's concerns, Austan Goolsbee, President of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, said earlier on <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/04/21/chicago-feds-goolsbee-says-fed-independence-is-critically-important-for-its-inflation-fight.html">CNBC's Squawk Box</a> that interfering with the Fed's independence would erode the institution's credibility and lead to long-term economic pain.
"Fed independence is critically important," Goolsbee said. "When there is interference over the long run, it's going to mean higher inflation, worse growth and higher unemployment."
Although Goolsbee declined to comment directly on Trump's statements, his message was clear: monetary credibility depends on political neutrality, especially when inflation-fighting resolve is needed.
"Just look at the countries where they don't have Fed independence. Inflation is higher, unemployment is higher, growth is worse," he added.
U.S. financial markets came under heavy pressure Monday, with stocks, bonds and the dollar falling in unison, a rare and unsettling signal of deepening investor distrust.
The U.S. Dollar Index (DXY), tracked by the Invesco DB USD Index Bullish Fund ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UUP#NYSE">UUP</a>), slid to its lowest level since April 2022.
The S&amp;P 500, mirrored by the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), sank 3.3% in one of its steepest single-day drops of the year.

United Airlines Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>) shares <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/UAL/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">traded lower on Wednesday.</a>
On Tuesday, the company reported first-quarter revenue of $13.21 billion, missing<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/travel/25/04/44826858/united-airlines-stock-takes-off-on-q1-earnings-strong-q2-forecast-fy-guidance-for-stable-and-recessionary-environments-impossible-to-predict" rel="noreferrer noopener">&nbsp;analyst estimates of $13.25 billion.</a> United estimated second-quarter adjusted earnings in the range of $3.25 to $4.25 per share.
Here are the key analyst takes on the stock, shared on Wednesday:
<ul>
<li>BofA Securities analyst Andrew G. Didora reiterated the Buy rating on the stock, with a price forecast of $100.</li>
<li>Goldman Sachs analyst Catherine O'Brien reiterated the Buy rating on United Airlines, with a price forecast of $92.</li>
</ul>
BofA Securities: Didora noted that, like Delta Air Lines, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DAL#NYSE">DAL</a>), United Airlines has not experienced any further decline in bookings in recent weeks.
This stability allowed the company to provide a strong second-quarter 2025 earnings guidance.

The analyst described the quarter as well-executed and expressed confidence in United&#8217;s potential to outperform moving forward, citing its strong revenue from premium offerings, a robust loyalty program, and a healthy balance sheet as key drivers of its competitive edge.
The analyst suggested that United Airlines likely began reducing costs when it noticed weakening demand in early February, coinciding with the DOGE fare cuts.
The cost-cutting measures appear to have focused on improving operational efficiency, adjusting maintenance schedules, and speeding up the retirement of older aircraft.
These strategic moves likely served as key levers to manage expenses and preserve margins in response to softening market conditions, Didora adds.
The analyst noted that while a holiday shift may have slightly boosted booking numbers, the performance still appears strong—especially as investors closely watch for potential weakness in international demand due to tariff-related concerns.
Goldman Sachs: O'Brien pointed out that, amid growing investor concern around full-year earnings guidance due to an uncertain demand outlook, many expected airlines to either withdraw or significantly lower their forecasts.
However, United Airlines took a different route by presenting two potential scenarios.
In one case, where bookings remain consistent with recent weaker trends, the company is sticking with its original 2025 EPS forecast of $11.50 to $13.50.
In a more cautious, recessionary scenario, United expects earnings between $7.00 and $9.00, which is still above Goldman Sachs&#8217; illustrative estimate of $6.20 for a downturn.
These ranges compare to the current Street consensus of $10.52 and Goldman's estimate of $9.75.
O'Brien highlighted several key risks, including the possibility that increased competition could offset the benefits of United&#8217;s network restructuring plans.
There's also concern about potential further delays in aircraft deliveries and the chance that demand in the Asia-Pacific region may recover more slowly than expected, the analyst writes.
Price Action: UAL shares ended Wednesday down 0.01% at $66.99.

United Airlines Holds The Line On Bookings—Analysts See Strength Beneath The Surface

U.S. major indices traded lower at midday Wednesday, pressured by sharp declines in tech and semiconductor stocks after Washington tightened chip <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/china">export restrictions to China.</a>
The U.S. government has barred Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) from selling its H20 chips to China — a move that could wipe out an estimated $5.5 billion from the company's projected quarterly revenue. Nvidia shares slid nearly 7%.
Other chipmakers also felt the heat. Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>) dropped 6% as its MI308 chips fall under the new licensing requirements.
The iShares Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOXX#NASDAQ">SOXX</a>) sank 3.4%, extending the sector&#8217;s losses. Adding to the drag, Dutch chip equipment giant ASML Holding N.V. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>) missed quarterly revenue estimates, sending its shares down 5%.
On the macro front, March retail sales surprised to the upside, rising 1.4% month-over-month — topping forecasts of 1.3% and marking the strongest monthly <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44837237/march-retail-sales-post-highest-surge-in-over-two-years-as-us-consumers-anticipate-tariff-jitters">gain since January 2023.</a>
Meanwhile, the U.S. dollar saw renewed selling pressure, with the dollar index dipping back below 100. Treasury yields were little changed, with the 10-year yield holding steady near 4.33%.
Gold continued its stellar run, surging 2.5% to a fresh record high of $3,320 per ounce as demand for safe-haven assets remains robust.
In commodities, oil prices rebounded sharply, with WTI crude climbing 2% to $62 a barrel. Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) also edged up 1.3% to around $84,500.
All eyes are now on Fed Chair Jerome Powell, who is set to speak at the Economic Club of Chicago later this afternoon.

Nvidia Drags Wall Street Down, Gold Defies Gravity Ahead Of Powell Remarks: What's Driving Markets Wednesday?

Delta Air Lines Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DAL#NYSE">DAL</a>) shares were trading higher by 2.1% to $41.67 at Wednesday&#8217;s open, before pulling back. The stock was potentially moving higher in early trading in sympathy with peer United Airlines Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>) after the company reported <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/travel/25/04/44826858/united-airlines-stock-takes-off-on-q1-earnings-strong-q2-forecast-fy-guidance-for-stable-and-recessionary-environments-impossible-to-predict">better-than-expected</a> first-quarter EPS results and guidance.
What To Know: Despite United narrowly missing revenue estimates, its earnings per share of 91 cents surpassed forecasts, driven by double-digit gains across premium cabin, cargo and loyalty revenue.
For Delta, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/travel/25/04/44833164/united-airlines-to-cut-back-on-flights-this-summer-as-it-anticipates-decline-in-demand">United's performance</a> points to positive industry-wide trends, particularly in high-margin segments where Delta is a market leader. United's growth in premium and business travel—up 9.2% and 7.4% respectively—indicates corporate demand recovery, a critical revenue stream for Delta's flagship transcontinental and international routes.

Additionally, United's improved cost efficiency, highlighted by a 3.4% decline in CASM, bodes well for Delta, which has aggressively managed expenses amid rising capacity.
Strong free cash flow and confident 2025 earnings guidance—$11.50–$13.50 per share in a stable economy—further suggest resilient travel demand. Investors are likely extrapolating similar tailwinds for Delta, whose financials and customer loyalty programs often outperform peers.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy DAL Stock</h2>
By now you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for Delta Air Lines &#8211; be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy &#8220;fractional shares,&#8221; which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share.
In the case of Delta Air Lines, which is trading at $41.18 as of publishing time, $100 would buy you 2.43 shares of stock.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to &#8220;go short&#8221; a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading &#8211; either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, DAL has a 52-week high of $69.98 and a 52-week low of $34.74.

What's Going On With Delta Air Lines (DAL) Shares?

In the current market session, United Airlines Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>) share price is at $68.88, after a 2.81% increase. Moreover, over the past month, the stock decreased by 7.46%, but in the past year, spiked by 33.96%. Shareholders might be interested in knowing whether the stock is overvalued, even if the company is performing up to par in the current session.

<h3>Comparing United Airlines Holdings P/E Against Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
United Airlines Holdings has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 11.56 of the Passenger Airlines industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1744815624_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.

Market-Moving News for April 16th

United Airlines Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>) said it will roll back its flight operations this summer as the company readies itself for a decline in air travel.
What Happened: In a full-year forecast released by the company, United Airlines announced it will cut its flight schedule by 4% starting in July, owing to softer customer demand.
The airline also announced it will retire 21 older aircraft from its fleet as well as scale back on off-peak flights on days with lower demand for air travel, which the company says is part of ‘prudent adjustments to the utilization rate of its fleet'.
The airlines also offered two forecasts — one scenario outlined a stable economy whilst the other outlined a ‘recessionary environment'. United said it earned $0.91 per share in Q1 2025.
Why It Matters: The news comes in as United recorded <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/travel/25/04/44826858/united-airlines-stock-takes-off-on-q1-earnings-strong-q2-forecast-fy-guidance-for-stable-and-recessionary-environments-impossible-to-predict">over $13.21 billion</a> in revenue for the quarter, amid uncertainty as Donald Trump's tariffs wreak havoc in the global markets.
Delta Airlines <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/travel/25/04/44671680/which-us-airline-is-facing-the-strongest-industry-tailwinds">being the leader</a> in the sector, experienced a surge in stock value after the Donald Trump administration announced a 90-day halt on all tariffs, which had cast doubts over the company's 2025 plans.
However, the aviation industry in the U.S. faces uncertainty with China imposing a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/04/44831116/kimbal-musk-warns-of-boeings-decline-amid-us-china-decoupling-fewer-planes-pricier-parts-and-lost-jobs-as-airbus-gains-ground">halt on all imports </a>of aircraft made by manufacturer Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) into the country.
Boeing could face another challenge as it grapples with a potential <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44811150/faulty-bathroom-latches-could-cost-boeing-34-million-following-faa-directive">$3.4 million in modification costs</a> to its fleet as the FAA proposes an airworthiness report after it reviewed an incident involving a Boeing aircraft where a passenger got stuck in the onboard lavatory.
Price action: UAL stock experienced a 29.79% YTD in value and currently trades for $67.00 on the NASDAQ, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>.

12 Industrials Stocks Moving In Tuesday's After-Market Session

United Airlines Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>) reported first-quarter financial results after the market close on Tuesday. Here&#8217;s a look at the key metrics from the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/04/n44825487/united-airlines-reports-best-first-quarter-financial-performance-in-five-years-despite-challenging">airline company&#8217;s report</a>.
Q1 Earnings: United Airlines reported first-quarter revenue of $13.21 billion, missing&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">analyst estimates</a>&nbsp;of $13.25 billion. The company reported adjusted first-quarter earnings of 91 cents per share, beating estimates of 76 cents per share, according to&nbsp;<a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro</a>.
Here&#8217;s a breakdown of year-over-year revenue growth by category:
<ul>
<li>Premium Cabin revenue: up 9.2% </li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Business revenue: up 7.4%</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Basic Economy revenue: up 7.6%</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Cargo revenue: up 9.7%</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Loyalty revenue: up 9.4%</li>
</ul>
Capacity was up 4.9% on a year-over-year basis. TRASM (total revenue per available seat mile) was up 0.5% while CASM (cost per available seat mile) declined 3.4%. Average fuel price per gallon was $2.53 during the quarter.
United said it generated $3.7 billion of operating cash flow and $2.3 billion of free cash flow in the period. The company ended the quarter with $18.3 billion in total liquidity and $27.7 billion in total debt, finance lease obligations and other financial liabilities.
&#8220;Our strategy coming out of the COVID pandemic was simple: Build the best airline in the world to attract brand-loyal customers. The people of United Airlines have executed and built that airline,&#8221; said&nbsp;Scott Kirby, CEO of United Airlines. 
&#8220;United Next is on track and we will continue to execute our multiyear plan that has allowed United to thrive in any demand environment. It has given us industry-leading margins in the good times and we expect to expand our lead further in challenging economic times.&#8221;

Guidance: United estimated second-quarter adjusted earnings in the range of $3.25 to $4.25 per share.
The airline company sees its ability to win brand-loyal customers as a competitive advantage that will allow it to remain "resilient" in any economic environment.
The company noted that it expects resilient earnings in both the second quarter and full-year 2025.
In response to the current demand environment, United plans to remove four percentage points of scheduled domestic capacity beginning in the third quarter. The company will also make &#8220;prudent&#8221; adjustments to its fleet rate utilization and retire aircraft earlier than planned, as previously announced.
United also provided two sets of guidance for full-year 2025. The company anticipates full-year 2025 adjusted earnings of $11.50 to $13.50 per share in a &#8220;stable environment.&#8221; United expects full-year earnings of $7 to $9 per share in a &#8220;recessionary environment.&#8221;
&#8220;The Company's outlook is dependent on the macro environment, which the Company believes is impossible to predict this year with any degree of confidence,&#8221; United said in an investor update.
United Airlines executives will further discuss the quarter on a call with investors and analysts Wednesday morning at 10:30 a.m. ET.
