“We are pleased to be at the finish line for closing of the merger of Mesa with Republic,” said Jonathan Ornstein, Mesa Chairman and CEO. “I want to thank all of the people and partners that have supported Mesa for the past four decades as well as helped us reach this outcome today. Our recent results have demonstrated a stabilized operating and financial position, driven by our efforts to enhance utilization and block-hour production, sell surplus assets, and repay over two-thirds of our debt principal over the past year. With the start of the new and enhanced capacity purchase agreement with United Airlines that will run for the next ten years, I look forward to legacy Mesa operations supporting day-one benefits and long-run value creation for the newly combined company.”
Mesa Quarter ended September 30, 2025 Details
Total operating revenues for the September 2025 quarter were $90.7 million, lower by $24.6 million, or 21.3%, compared to $115.3 million for the September 2024 quarter. Contract revenue was $66.0 million, lower by $27.8 million, or 29.6%, compared to $93.8 million in the September 2024 quarter. These decreases were driven by the reduction in contractual aircraft with United Airlines, Inc. (“United”). In addition, the disposition of certain Embraer 175 aircraft contributed to lower aircraft ownership revenue.
Pass-through revenue increased by $3.2 million, or 14.9%, driven primarily by higher pass-through maintenance expense. Mesa’s September 2025 quarter results include, per GAAP, the recognition of $1.4 million of previously deferred revenue, versus the deferral of $2.8 million of revenue in the September 2024 quarter.
Total operating expenses in the September 2025 quarter were $99.9 million, a decrease of $32.4 million, or 24.5%, versus the September 2024 quarter. Compared to the September 2024 quarter, the decrease primarily reflects asset impairment expenses that were $15.2 million lower, as well as lower depreciation and amortization expense, primarily due to the retirement and sale of CRJ aircraft and engines, in addition to lower maintenance, rent, and flight operations expenses tied to operating a smaller contractual fleet.
Mesa’s September 2025 quarter results reflect a net loss of $14.1 million, or $(0.34) per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $24.9 million, or $(0.60) per diluted share, for the September 2024 quarter. Mesa’s September 2025 quarter adjusted net loss was $2.1 million, or $(0.05) per diluted share, versus an adjusted net loss of $0.1 million, or $(0.00) per diluted share, in the September 2024 quarter.
Mesa’s adjusted EBITDA1 for the September 2025 quarter was $3.3 million, compared to adjusted EBITDA of $14.7 million for September 2024 quarter. Adjusted EBITDAR was $3.7 million for the September 2025 quarter, compared to adjusted EBITDAR of $18.2 million for the September 2024 quarter.
Mesa September 2025 Quarter Operating Performance
Operationally, the Company reported a controllable completion factor of 100.00% for United during the September 2025 quarter. This is compared to a controllable completion factor of 99.88% for United during the September 2024 quarter. Controllable completion factor excludes cancellations due to weather and air traffic control.
For the September 2025 quarter, the Company operated 60 large (70/76 seats) E-175 jets under its CPA with United.
Balance Sheet and Liquidity
Mesa ended the September 2025 quarter with $38.7 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $95.2 million in total debt, secured primarily with aircraft and engines, compared to a balance of $315.2 million as of September 30, 2024. During the quarter, the Company paid $18.5 million in debt, comprised of payments related to CRJ asset sale transactions and scheduled obligations.

Reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measure
Adjusted EBITDA is a financial performance measure that is not calculated in accordance with GAAP. This non-GAAP financial measure should not be viewed as a substitute for GAAP financial measures and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Furthermore, there are limitations inherent in non-GAAP financial measures because they exclude charges and credits that are required to be included in a GAAP presentation. Accordingly, these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered together with, and not as an alternative to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
