Item 1A. Risk Factors
We have evaluated our risk factors and determined there are no changes to those set forth in Part I, Item 1A. of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, and filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on February 29, 2024.
, other than the following risk factor:
Labor actions at Boeing will likely delay its production schedule, which could impact us as delivery delays may result in lower profitability than expected and delayed growth.
We are relying on Boeing to deliver our new 737 MAX aircraft to support airline growth and to replace aircraft we have designated for retirement.
In addition to the regulatory issues Boeing is facing, its machinists began to strike on September 13, 2024, which ended on November 5, 2024. The strike will likely further delay aircraft deliveries to us, and it is not possible to predict for what period our deliveries will be further delayed. Any further delays might disproportionately affect us as we expect to rely on these new aircraft for operating efficiencies and to augment our fleet as well as to replace aircraft to be retired.
