Against this backdrop, let us take a look at the factors that might have shaped the company’s June-quarter performance.

We expect scheduled service revenues to have decreased in the to-be-reported quarter from a year ago, primarily due to the elimination of unprofitable routes and a brief interruption of service earlier this year. On-Demand service revenues are also likely to have decreased year over year due to the company’s focus on charter profitability. The company expects June quarter revenues in the $23.5-$26.5 million band.

Low technology, as well as compensation costs, are expected to have aided the bottom-line performance in the to-be-reported quarter. The company’s efforts to optimize its airline plans are also expected to aid results. SRFM has been driving efficiencies from SurfOS, an AI-enabled software platform for the regional air mobility industry, developed with Palantir Technologies PLTR. An update on the same is expected on the second-quarter conference call.
