credit / rates affecting interest expense

SkyWest Leasing profit increased $7.8 million, or 10.7%, for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025 , primarily due to an increase in revenue earned under our capacity purchase agreements attributed to the ownership of new E175 aircraft acquired since June 30, 2025, a decrease in incremental maintenance services provided to third parties, which offset the increase in operating revenue and contributed to the reduction in aircraft maintenance, materials and repair expense, and a decrease in interest expense due to a decrease in outstanding debt from June 30, 2025 to June 30, 2026.

SKYW 10-Q · 2026-07-24
demand / volume affecting revenue

Future increases in prorate revenue is based on several factors subject to change including, but not limited to, passenger demand on prorate routes, approval of new routes with our major airline partners, maintenance required to return parked aircraft for service and labor availability.

SKYW 10-K · 2026-02-17
demand / volume

These aircraft were previously retired in 2020 as a result of the decline in demand for air travel due to the COVID-19 pandemic. (4) Regional operating special items, net for 2024 included a $33 million non-cash write down of regional aircraft resulting from the decision to permanently park 43 Embraer ERJ145 aircraft.
