Delta Air Lines Just Announced a Smart Idea, and Yes, You Should Definitely Copy It  I sense a trend. And a lesson.

BY BILL MURPHY JR.,

A university student went to the dean with a complaint. 

·       "I can't believe you're treating me like this!" the student said. "I'm your customer!"

·       "No you're not," the dean replied. "You're the product."

It's a funny line, right? Mostly because it rings true. Also, if a university student is the product, then who's the actual customer? 

Mostly likely, the customers are the employers that support the school and depend on it for a never-ending line of potential new employees.

With that, let's talk about Delta Air Lines, which announced this week that it's launching a new flight academy program to train the next generation of pilots. It's pretty smart.

Delta says it's teamed up with Skyborne Airline Academy, a flight school in Florida, and will convert a 12,000-square-foot facility into the Delta Propel Flight Academy, complete with classrooms and study areas.

Why You Should Retain Delta Air (DAL) Stock in Portfolio Now

Tue, March 21, 2023 at 8:26 AM EDT

Delta Air Lines, Inc. (DAL) is benefiting from its strong liquidity position and the buoyant air travel demand scenario. However, escalating fuel cost is worrisome.

Factors Favoring DAL

Driven by buoyant demand, Delta Air generated a double-digit operating margin in the second, third and fourth quarters of 2022. In the December quarter, adjusted operating margin was 10.9%

The buoyant air-travel demand scenario is also evident from the fact that total operating revenues increased 8% in 2022 from 2019 (pre-coronavirus) actuals. Given this buoyant air-travel demand, Delta Air expects total revenues (adjusted) for 2023 to increase in the 15-20% range on a year-over-year basis.

Delta Air’s liquidity position is encouraging. The airline ended 2022 with cash and cash equivalents of $6,534 million, much higher than the current maturities of debt and financial lease of $2,534 million. This implies that the company has sufficient cash to meet its current debt obligations. DAL's efforts to repay its debts are encouraging too.

Key Risk

Escalating fuel costs pose a threat to Delta Air’s bottom line. Oil price is moving north primarily because of supply concerns due to Russia's invasion of Ukraine. In fourth-quarter 2022, average fuel price per gallon (adjusted) increased 61% from fourth-quarter 2019 actuals to $3.20. Management expects fuel price per gallon in the $3.05-$3.25 range in the March quarter.

Zacks Rank & Key Picks

Delta Air currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).
