SkyWest reported Q3 2026 net income of $120 million, or $3.08 per diluted share, up from $116 million and $2.81 a year ago, on revenue of $1.12 billion, up 6% year-over-year. Pre-tax income rose to $159 million from $157 million in Q3 2025, though results were pressured by higher prorate fuel costs. SkyWest also revised the estimated useful life of its E175 fleet to 30 years, reducing depreciation expense. The company repurchased 738,000 shares for roughly $75 million in the quarter, leaving about $238 million under its buyback program.
