    Shannon Doherty's questions to MESA AIR GROUP (MESA) leadership

    Shannon Doherty's questions to MESA AIR GROUP (MESA) leadership • Q2 2023

    Question

    Shannon Doherty of Deutsche Bank inquired about the reasons for E-Jet utilization remaining under six hours despite improvements in pilot attrition. She also asked about the potential for Mesa to return to mid-teen operating margins and what steps would be necessary to achieve pre-pandemic profitability levels.

    Answer

    Chairman and CEO Jonathan Ornstein explained that the low utilization is a temporary issue related to the time required to ramp up pilot training, which takes three to four months. He highlighted that pilot attrition is at a record low and training output is now producing a net gain of nearly 40 pilots per month. Regarding profitability, Ornstein stated that once the fleet reaches full utilization of over 10-10.5 hours per day, the company believes it can achieve consistent operating margins between 5% and 8%. He noted this could take another year to achieve and that there may be further cost-saving opportunities once operations stabilize.
