AMERICAN AIRLINES, INC.

1. Basis of Presentation

(a)Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of American Airlines, Inc. (American) should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements contained in American’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. American is the principal wholly-owned subsidiary of American Airlines Group Inc. (AAG). All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

Management believes that all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of results, consisting of normally recurring items, have been included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the interim periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most significant areas of judgment relate to passenger revenue recognition, the loyalty program, deferred tax assets, as well as pension and retiree medical and other postretirement benefits.

(b)Operating Property and Equipment

Effective January 1, 2025, American adjusted the estimated useful lives of its mainline and regional aircraft, engines and related rotable parts bythree years to align with the extended lives of aircraft included in American’s long-term fleet plan. In conjunction with this change, American also reduced the salvage values for most of these assets from 10% to 5% of original cost to more closely reflect the estimated value at the end of the useful life. Accordingly, the estimated useful lives for the principal property and equipment classification are as follows:

The effect of these changes did not have a material impact to depreciation and amortization expense in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.

(c) Construction Projects

American’s improvements to the overhaul and maintenance base at Tulsa International Airport (Tulsa Maintenance Base) include the design, construction and renovation of various facilities at the Tulsa Maintenance Base. The Tulsa Maintenance Base is American’s largest maintenance facility and is an integral part of operating its mainline fleet. American has concluded that it does not control the underlying assets being constructed, and therefore, it recognizes operating lease liabilities with corresponding right-of-use assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as individual project stages are completed and leases commence.

In May 2025, the Tulsa Municipal Airport Trust (TMAT) issued $400 million aggregate principal amount of special facility revenue bonds on behalf of American, with $300 million maturing on December 1, 2035 and $100 million maturing on December 1, 2040 (collectively, the 2025 TMAT Bonds). The 2025 TMAT Bond due December 1, 2035 was priced at 109% of par value and the 2025 TMAT Bond due December 1, 2040 was priced at 107% of par value. The gross proceeds from the issuance of the 2025 TMAT Bonds were approximately $432 million. Of this amount, $104 million was used to fund the redemption of the aggregate principal amount of TMAT’s outstanding 2015 special facility revenue bonds (the 2015 TMAT Bonds) and the remaining $328 million will be used to finance the cost of improvements at the Tulsa Maintenance Base. The net proceeds received from the 2025 TMAT Bonds, offset by related project spend, are reflected within other investing activities in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.

The 2025 TMAT Bonds bear interest at 6.25% per annum commencing on May 8, 2025, until the day preceding the applicable maturity date, on which date the bonds will be subject to mandatory tender for purchase by American. American is required to pay rent equal to the annual principal and interest requirement on the 2025 TMAT Bonds through payments under a sublease agreement with TMAT (as amended), and AAG guarantees the 2025 TMAT Bonds. American’s obligations under both the sublease agreement with TMAT and the 2025 TMAT Bonds are secured by a leasehold mortgage on American’s lease of the Tulsa Maintenance Base.

2. Special Items, Net

Special items, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations consisted of the following (in millions):

(1)Labor contract expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2025 included a one-time charge for adjustments to vacation accruals resulting from pay rate increases effective January 1, 2025, related to the ratification of the contract extension in the fourth quarter of 2024 with American’s mainline maintenance and fleet service team members.

Labor contract expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 included one-time charges resulting from the ratification of a new collective bargaining agreement with American’s mainline passenger service team members, including a one-time signing bonus.

(2)Mark-to-market adjustments on equity investments, net included unrealized gains and losses associated with certain equity investments.

3. Revenue Recognition

Revenue

The following are the significant categories comprising American’s operating revenues (in millions):

(1)Loyalty revenue included in passenger revenue is principally comprised of mileage credit redemptions, which were earned from travel or co-branded credit card and other partners.

The following is American’s total passenger revenue by geographic region (in millions):

American attributes passenger revenue by geographic region based upon the origin and destination of each flight segment.

Contract Balances

American’s significant contract liabilities are comprised of (1) outstanding loyalty program mileage credits that may be redeemed for future air travel, non-air travel and other awards, reported as loyalty program liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and (2) ticket sales for transportation that has not yet been provided, reported as air traffic liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The balance of the loyalty program liability fluctuates based on seasonal patterns, which impact the volume of mileage credits issued through travel or sold to co-branded credit card and other partners (deferral of revenue) and mileage credits redeemed (recognition of revenue). Changes in loyalty program liability are as follows (in millions):

(1)Principally relates to revenue recognized from the redemption of mileage credits for air travel, non-air travel and other awards. Mileage credits are combined in one homogenous pool and are not separately identifiable. As such, the revenue is comprised of mileage credits that were part of the loyalty program deferred revenue balance at the beginning of the period, as well as mileage credits that were issued during the period.

(2)Mileage credits can be redeemed at any time and generally do not expire as long as the AAdvantage member has any type of qualifying activity at least every 24 months or if the AAdvantage member is the primary holder of a co-branded credit card. As of June 30, 2025, American’s current loyalty program liability was $3.7 billion and represents American’s current estimate of revenue expected to be recognized in the next 12 months based on historical trends, with the balance reflected in long-term loyalty program liability expected to be recognized as revenue in periods thereafter.

The air traffic liability principally represents tickets sold for future travel on American and partner airlines. The balance in American’s air traffic liability also fluctuates with seasonal travel patterns. The contract duration of passenger tickets is generallyone year. Accordingly, any revenue associated with tickets sold for future travel will be recognized within 12 months. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, $4.8 billion of revenue was recognized in passenger revenue that was included in American’s air traffic liability at December 31, 2024.

4. Debt

Long-term debt included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets consisted of (in millions):

(1)Collectively referred to as the AAdvantage Financing.

As of June 30, 2025, the maximum availability under American’s revolving credit and other facilities is as follows (in millions):

(1)On April 21, 2025, the aggregate revolving commitments under the 2013, 2014 and 2023 Revolving Facilities were increased from $2.9 billion to $3.0 billion upon the upsize of commitments by certain existing lenders. No other terms were changed and there areno borrowings outstanding under the facilities.

(2)Includes a revolving credit facility that provides for borrowing capacity of up to $350 million, maturing in March 2027 with an option to extend for an additional year. Additionally, American currently has $50 million of available borrowing base under a cargo receivables facility that is set to expire in December 2025. There areno amounts drawn under these facilities.

Secured financings, including revolving credit and other facilities, are collateralized by assets, consisting primarily of aircraft, engines, simulators, airport gate leasehold rights, route authorities, airport slots, certain receivables, certain intellectual property and certain loyalty program assets.

AAdvantage Term Loan Facilities

On March 24, 2025, American and AAdvantage Loyalty IP Ltd. (the Borrowers) entered into a second amendment to the term loan credit and guaranty agreement dated March 24, 2021 (the Second Amendment). As a result of the Second Amendment, the term loans outstanding with a principal amount of approximately $2.3 billion (the 2021 AAdvantage Term Loan Facility) were replaced with new term loans in the same principal amount. The terms of the new term loans are substantially similar to the prior term loans; however, the new term loans bear interest at a base rate (subject to a floor of 0.00%) plus an applicable margin of 1.25% per annum or, at the Borrowers’ option, the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) for a tenor of three months (subject to a floor of 0.00%), plus an applicable margin of 2.25% per annum. Additionally, the scheduled quarterly principal amortization amount was reduced to 0.25% of the principal amount of term loans outstanding as of March 24, 2025 (approximately $6 million each quarter), payable beginning in July 2025, and the remaining balance is due at maturity in April 2028. Pursuant to the Second Amendment, the new term loans are not subject to a cost spread adjustment.

On May 28, 2025, the Borrowers entered into a third amendment to the term loan credit and guaranty agreement dated March 24, 2021 (the Third Amendment). As a result of the Third Amendment, the Borrowers incurred $1.0 billion of incremental term loans (the 2025 AAdvantage Term Loan Facility) due on May 28, 2032. The terms of the 2025 AAdvantage Term Loan Facility are substantially similar to the 2021 AAdvantage Term Loan Facility; however, the 2025 AAdvantage Term Loan Facility bears interest at a base rate (subject to a floor of 0.00%) plus an applicable margin of 2.25% per annum or, at the Borrowers’ option, the SOFR rate for a tenor of three months (subject to a floor of 0.00%), plus an applicable margin of 3.25% per annum. Additionally, the scheduled quarterly principal amortization amount is equal to 0.25% of the original aggregate principal amount of the 2025 AAdvantage Term Loan Facility (approximately $3 million each quarter), payable beginning in July 2025, and the remaining balance is due at maturity in May 2032. Pursuant to the Third Amendment, the 2025 AAdvantage Term Loan Facility is not subject to a cost spread adjustment. The net proceeds from the 2025 AAdvantage Term Loan Facility were used to repay near term maturities, including the 6.50% convertible senior notes described in Note 5 to AAG’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1A.

Equipment Loans and Other Notes Payable Issued in 2025

During the first six months of 2025, American entered into agreements under which it borrowed $712 million in connection with the financing of certain aircraft. Debt incurred under these agreements matures in 2036 through 2037 and bears interest at variable rates (comprised of SOFR plus an applicable margin) averaging 6.29% as of June 30, 2025.

Other Financing Activities

During the first six months of 2025, American prepaid $487 million of the outstanding principal amounts of equipment notes issued under EETCs, and these amounts were applied to repay the related trust certificates. Additionally, American prepaid $308 million toward portions of the outstanding principal amounts of the 10.75% senior secured IP notes and 10.75% senior secured LGA/DCA notes.

5. Income Taxes

At December 31, 2024, American had approximately $12.8 billion of gross federal net operating losses (NOLs) and $4.2 billion of other carryforwards available to reduce future federal taxable income, of which $2.9 billion will expire beginning in 2033 if unused and $14.1 billion can be carried forward indefinitely. American is a member of AAG’s consolidated federal and certain state income tax returns. American also had approximately $5.0 billion of NOL carryforwards to reduce future state taxable income at December 31, 2024, which will expire in taxable years 2024 through 2044 if unused.

American’s ability to use its NOLs and other carryforwards depends on the amount of taxable income generated in future periods. American provides a valuation allowance for its deferred tax assets, which include its NOLs and other carryforwards, when it is more likely than not that some portion, or all of its deferred tax assets, will not be realized. American considers all available positive and negative evidence and makes certain assumptions in evaluating the realizability of its deferred tax assets. Many factors are considered that impact American’s assessment of future profitability, including conditions which are beyond its control, such as the health of the economy, the availability and price volatility of aircraft fuel and travel demand. American has determined that positive factors outweigh negative factors in the determination of the realizability of its deferred tax assets.

American has historically calculated the provision for income taxes during interim reporting periods by applying an estimate of the annual effective tax rate for the full year to income or loss for the reporting period. American has changed to use the discrete method to calculate taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. At this time, American believes that the use of the discrete method for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 is more appropriate than the estimated annual effective tax rate method due to the fact that small changes in projected full year income could cause material fluctuations in American’s annual effective tax rate applied during each quarter.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, American recorded an income tax provision of $267 million and $123 million, respectively, which was substantially non-cash due to the utilization of the NOLs described above. Substantially all of American’s income before income taxes is attributable to the United States.

On July 4, 2025, H.R. 1, the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” (the OBBBA) was signed into law in the U.S. Among other changes, the OBBBA modifies key business tax provisions, including by restoring 100% bonus depreciation under Section 168(k), reverting to the higher, EBITDA-based, business interest expense limitation under Section 163(j) and changing the computation of taxes related to international operations. Based on American’s current analysis of these provisions, American does not believe these provisions will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

6. Fair Value Measurements

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

American utilizes the market approach to measure the fair value of its financial assets. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets. American’s short-term investments, restricted cash and restricted short-term investments classified as Level 2 utilize significant observable inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, for valuation of these securities. No changes in valuation techniques or inputs occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below (in millions):

(1)All short-term investments are classified as available-for-sale and stated at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss at each reporting period. There were no credit losses.

(2)American’s short-term investments mature in one year or less.

(3)Restricted cash and short-term investments primarily include collateral held to support workers’ compensation obligations, collateral associated with the payment of interest for the AAdvantage Financing and money market funds to be used to finance the cost of improvements at the Tulsa Maintenance Base. Restricted short-term investments mature in one year or less except for $157 million as of June 30, 2025.

(4)Long-term investments primarily include American’s equity investment in China Southern Airlines Company Limited (China Southern Airlines). See Note 7 for further information on American’s equity investments.

Fair Value of Debt

The fair value of American’s long-term debt was estimated using quoted market prices or discounted cash flow analyses based on American’s current estimated incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

The carrying value and estimated fair value of American’s long-term debt, including current maturities, were as follows (in millions):

7. Investments

To help expand American’s network and as part of its ongoing commitment to sustainability, American enters into various commercial relationships or other strategic partnerships, including equity investments, with other airlines and companies. American’s equity investments are reflected in other assets on its condensed consolidated balance sheets. American’s share of equity method investees’ financial results and changes in fair value are recorded in nonoperating other income (expense), net on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

American’s equity investment ownership interests and carrying values are as follows:

(1)Primarily includes American’s investment in JetSMART Holdings Limited, which is accounted for under the equity method.

8. Employee Benefit Plans

The following table provides the components of net periodic benefit cost (income) (in millions):

Effective November 1, 2012, substantially all of American’s defined benefit pension plans were frozen.

The service cost component of net periodic benefit cost (income) is included in operating expenses and the other components of net periodic benefit cost (income) are included in nonoperating other income (expense), net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

During the first six months of 2025, American made required contributions of $221 million to its defined benefit pension plans.

9. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

The components of accumulated other comprehensive loss (AOCI) are as follows (in millions):

(1)Relates principally to pension, retiree medical and other postretirement benefits obligations that will not be recognized in net income until the obligations are fully extinguished.

(2)Relates to pension, retiree medical and other postretirement benefits obligations and is recognized within the income tax provision on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Reclassifications out of AOCI are as follows (in millions):

10. Regional Expenses

American’s regional carriers provide scheduled air transportation under the brand name “American Eagle.” The American Eagle carriers include AAG’s wholly-owned regional carriers as well as third-party regional carriers. American’s regional carrier arrangements are principally in the form of capacity purchase agreements. Expenses associated with American Eagle operations are classified as regional expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Regional expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 include $72 million and $69 million of depreciation and amortization, respectively, and each includes $2 million of aircraft rent. Regional expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 include $141 million and $138 million of depreciation and amortization, respectively, and $5 million and $4 million of aircraft rent, respectively.

During the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, American recognized $174 million and $150 million, respectively, of expense under its capacity purchase agreement with Republic Airways Inc. (Republic). During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, American recognized $342 million and $299 million, respectively, of expense under its capacity purchase agreement with Republic. American holds a 25% equity interest in Republic Airways Holdings Inc., the parent company of Republic.

11. Transactions with Related Parties

(1)The net payable to AAG’s wholly-owned subsidiaries consists primarily of amounts due under regional capacity purchase agreements with AAG’s wholly-owned regional airlines operating under the brand name of American Eagle.

12. Legal Proceedings

Government Antitrust Action Related to the Northeast Alliance. On September 21, 2021, the United States Department of Justice, joined by Attorneys General from six states and the District of Columbia, filed an antitrust complaint against AAG and JetBlue Airways Corporation (JetBlue) in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts alleging that AAG and JetBlue violated U.S. antitrust law in connection with the previously disclosed Northeast Alliance arrangement (NEA). On May 19, 2023, the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts issued an order permanently enjoining AAG and JetBlue from continuing and further implementing the NEA. Following JetBlue’s notice of termination of the NEA, effective July 29, 2023, the airlines conducted a wind-down of the NEA. AAG filed a notice of appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit on September 25, 2023. The First Circuit affirmed the District Court’s decision on November 8, 2024. AAG filed a petition for writ of certiorari to the U.S. Supreme Court on February 27, 2025. On June 30, 2025, the U.S. Supreme Court denied the petition for writ of certiorari.

Private Party Antitrust Actions Related to the Northeast Alliance. On December 5, 2022 and December 7, 2022, two private party plaintiffs filed putative class action antitrust complaints against AAG and JetBlue in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York alleging that AAG and JetBlue violated U.S. antitrust law in connection with the previously disclosed NEA. These actions were consolidated on January 10, 2023. The private party plaintiffs filed an amended consolidated complaint on February 3, 2023. On February 2, 2023 and February 15, 2023, private party plaintiffs filedtwo additional putative class action antitrust complaints against AAG and JetBlue in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts and the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York, respectively. In March 2023, AAG filed a motion in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts case asking to transfer the case to the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York and consolidate it with the cases pending in that venue. The U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts granted that motion. The remaining cases were consolidated with the other actions in the Eastern District of New York. In June 2023, the private party plaintiffs filed a second amended consolidated complaint, followed by a third amended complaint filed in August 2023. In September 2023, AAG, together with JetBlue, filed a motion to dismiss the third amended complaint. In September 2024, the court denied that motion. AAG and JetBlue filed answers to the private party plaintiffs’ third amended complaint in October 2024, and the parties are now engaged in discovery. AAG believes these lawsuits are without merit and is defending against them vigorously.

Securities and Stockholder Derivative Litigation. On July 18, 2024, AAG and certain of its current and former officers were named as defendants in a putative class action lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas, captioned Qawasmi v. American Airlines Group Inc., et al. The Qawasmi plaintiff purports to represent investors who acquired AAG securities between January 25, 2024 and May 28, 2024. On August 28, 2024, AAG and certain of its current and former officers were named as defendants in a second putative class action lawsuit filed in the same court, captioned Thornburg v. American Airlines Group Inc., et al. The Thornburg plaintiff purports to represent investors who acquired AAG securities between July 20, 2023 and May 28, 2024. Both the Qawasmi and Thornburg complaints assert violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act based on allegations that, during the relevant periods, AAG misrepresented and/or omitted material facts related to its financial outlook and certain commercial initiatives. On September 16, 2024, certain purported AAG investors moved for consolidation of the Qawasmi and Thornburg actions as well as appointment as lead plaintiff. On November 22, 2024, the Qawasmiand Thornburg complaints were consolidated into a single action bearing the caption In re American Airlines Group Inc. Securities Litigation. The court also appointed co-lead plaintiffs and lead counsel to represent the putative class in the consolidated action. Plaintiffs filed a consolidated complaint on January 21, 2025, and an amended consolidated complaint on March 19, 2025. The consolidated complaint makes similar factual allegations to the prior complaints regarding AAG’s financial outlook and certain commercial initiatives. AAG and the individual defendants filed a joint motion to dismiss on March 21, 2025 that was fully submitted on May 23, 2025. That motion is currently pending.

Additionally, on September 19, 2024, certain of AAG’s current and former directors and officers were named as defendants in a shareholder derivative lawsuit (in which AAG is a nominal defendant) filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas, captioned Hollin v. Isom, et al. The Hollin complaint asserts violations of Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act, breach of fiduciary duty, and claims for unjust enrichment and corporate waste. On September 26, 2024, a second derivative complaint was filed in the same court, similarly naming certain of AAG’s current and former directors and officers (as well as AAG as a nominal defendant), captioned Leon v. Isom, et al. The Leon complaint asserts violations of Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act, breaches of fiduciary duty, claims of unjust enrichment, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, waste of corporate assets, and a claim for contribution. The Hollinand Leon complaints generally allege the same purported misconduct as alleged in the securities class actions. On November 25, 2024, the Hollinand Leon complaints were consolidated into a single action bearing the caption In re American Airlines Group Inc. Stockholder Derivative Action. The derivative actions are currently stayed pending resolution of the securities class action. AAG believes both the securities class action and shareholder derivative lawsuit are without merit and intends to defend against them vigorously.

General. In addition to the specifically identified legal proceedings, American and its subsidiaries are also engaged in other legal proceedings from time to time. Legal proceedings can be complex and take many months, or even years, to reach resolution, with the final outcome depending on a number of variables, some of which are not within American’s control. Therefore, although American will vigorously defend itself in each of the actions described above and such other legal proceedings, their ultimate resolution and potential financial and other impacts on American are uncertain but could be material.
