Q1 2025 Earnings — Results of Operations
Filed April 9, 2025
March quarter EPS of $0.46 (adjusted) held flat year-over-year, but Delta is pulling back hard on the throttle — cutting second-half capacity growth to flat year-over-year and withdrawing full-year guidance amid trade-driven economic uncertainty. The airline is guiding Q2 operating margin of 11%–14% with EPS of $1.70–$2.30, leaning on premium revenue (up 7%), record AmEx remuneration (up 13%), and falling fuel prices to protect profitability while domestic and main cabin demand softens.
