We are subject to certain market risks, including commodity prices (specifically aircraft fuel). The adverse effects of changes in these markets could pose potential losses as discussed below. The sensitivity analysis provided does not consider the effects that such adverse changes may have on overall economic activity, nor does it consider additional actions we may take to mitigate our exposure to such changes. Actual results may differ.
Aircraft Fuel
Our results of operations can be significantly impacted by changes in the price and availability of aircraft fuel. Aircraft fuel expense for the six months ended June 30, 2026 represented 31.0 percent of our total operating expenses. Increases in fuel prices, or a shortage of supply, could have a material impact on our operations and operating results. Based on our fuel consumption for the six months ended June 30, 2026, a hypothetical ten percent increase in the average price per gallon of fuel would have increased fuel expense by approximately $48.7 million. We do not hedge fuel price risk.
Interest Rates
As of June 30, 2026, we had $930.1 million of variable-rate debt, including current maturities, and without reduction for $11.3 million in related costs. A hypothetical 100 basis point change in interest rates would have affected interest expense on variable rate debt by approximately $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026.
