ITEM 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure
     On January 9, 2006, UAL Corporation (the “Company”) will provide information to certain lenders and potential lenders in connection with a presentation regarding the credit facility that the Company anticipates entering into upon its exit from Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. Certain information about the Company that will be disclosed at this presentation is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
     Certain statements throughout the exhibit to this report are forward-looking and thus reflect our current expectations and beliefs with respect to certain current and future events and financial performance. Such forward-looking statements are and will be subject to many risks and uncertainties relating to our operations and business environment that may cause actual results to differ materially from any future results expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements. Words such as “expect,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “indicates,” “believes,” “forecast,” “guidance,” “outlook” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Additionally, forward-looking statements include statements which do not relate solely to historical facts, such as statements which identify uncertainties or trends, discuss the possible future effects of current known trends or uncertainties or which indicate that the future effects of known trends or uncertainties cannot be predicted, guaranteed or assured. All forward-looking statements in this report are based upon information available to us on the date of this report. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events, changed circumstances or otherwise.
     Our actual results could differ materially from these forward-looking statements due to numerous factors including, without limitation, the following: our ability to continue as a going concern; our ability to comply with the terms of our credit facility or negotiate modifications or amendments thereto as necessary; our ability to successfully renegotiate aircraft financings under Section 1110 of the Bankruptcy Code; our ability to obtain court approval with respect to motions in the Chapter 11 proceeding prosecuted by us from time to time; our ability to develop, prosecute, confirm and consummate one or more plans of reorganization with respect to the Chapter 11 cases; risks associated with third parties seeking and obtaining court approval to terminate or shorten our exclusive period to propose and confirm one or more plans of reorganization; the potential adverse impact of the Chapter 11 cases on our liquidity or results of operations; the appointment of a Chapter 11 trustee or conversion of the cases to Chapter 7; the application of fresh-start accounting principles; the costs and availability of financing; our ability to execute our business plan; our ability to utilize our net operating losses; our ability to attract, motivate and/or retain key employees; our ability to attract and retain customers; demand for transportation in the markets in which we operate; general economic conditions (including interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, crude oil prices and refining capacity in relevant markets); the effects of any hostilities or act of war or any terrorist attack; the ability of other air carriers with whom we have alliances or partnerships to provide the services contemplated by the respective arrangements with such carriers; the costs and availability of aircraft insurance; the costs of aviation fuel and our ability to cost-effectively hedge against increases in the price of aviation fuel; the costs associated with security measures and practices; labor costs; competitive pressures on pricing (particularly from lower-cost competitors) and on demand; capacity decisions of our competitors, U.S. or foreign governmental legislation, regulation and other actions; our ability to maintain satisfactory labor relations; any disruptions to operations due to any potential actions by our labor groups; weather conditions; and other risks and uncertainties set forth from time to time in the reports we file with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Consequently, the forward-looking statements should not be regarded as representations or warranties by the Company that such matters will be realized. We disclaim any intent or obligation to update or revise any of the forward-looking statements, whether in response to new information, unforeseen events, changed circumstances or otherwise.
     The financial projections included in the exhibit were not prepared to comply with the guidelines for prospective financial statements published by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities Exchange Commission. The Company’s independent accountants have neither examined nor compiled the accompanying financial projections and accordingly do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect to the financial projections, assume no responsibility for the financial projections and disclaim any association with the financial projections. The Company does not regularly publish projections of its anticipated financial position or results of operations and does not commit to update or

 


Table of Contents

otherwise revise these financial projections to reflect events or circumstances existing or arising after the date of this document or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. The financial projections are based on estimates and assumptions, including those set forth in the preceding paragraph, that may not be realized. These estimates and assumptions are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are outside the Company’s control. No representations can be or are made as to whether the actual results will be within the range set forth in the financial projections. Therefore, although the projections are necessarily presented with numerical specificity, the actual results of operations achieved during the projection period will vary from the projected results. These variations may be material. Accordingly, no representation can be made or is being made with respect to the accuracy of the financial projections or the ability of the Company to achieve the financial projections. Some assumptions inevitably will not materialize, and events and circumstances occurring subsequent to the date on which the financial projections were prepared may be different from those assumed, or may be unanticipated, and therefore may affect financial results in a material and possibly adverse manner. Persons or entities reviewing the exhibit and the financial projections must make their own determination as to the reasonableness of the assumptions and the reliability of the financial projections.

Projection overview
The financial projections contained in this Current Report were initially completed in August 2005 and have since been updated with actual results through October 2005. They include consolidated results for the Company's domestic and international operations (together, "Mainline"), regional feeder service ("United Express") and ancillary activities. The financial projections provide consolidated income statements, balance sheets, and cash flow statements, and were initially based on actual results through June 2005 and projected results for the balance of 2005 through 2010 (the "Projection Period").
The financial projections for the Projection Period resulted from a rigorous, "bottoms-up" planning process. Based on the operating statistics developed by United's Planning Group in conjunction with the fleet and capacity plan, the individual operating divisions of the Company developed the detailed forecasts of revenue and operating expenses. These detailed forecasts were reviewed by senior management to ensure that assumptions with respect to expense drivers, inflation expectations, and cost initiatives were appropriate and properly represented in the forecasts. The approved division forecasts were combined to create the Gershwin 6 Financial Model ("G6").
In addition to the operating assumptions, the financial projections assumed confirmation of the Company's Plan of Reorganization and exiting bankruptcy on February 1, 2006 and reflected the various restructuring initiatives that the Company has accomplished while in bankruptcy. Further, the financial projections do not necessarily reflect GAAP, and in particular do not include non-cash, stock-based compensation. In addition, as discussed herein, the financial projections contain certain assumptions with respect to the adoption of Fresh Start Reporting. These assumptions and the associated adjustments may differ materially from those actually incorporated into the Company's financial records. Variations in these assumptions may impact the Company's reported earnings, primarily on a non-cash basis.
Key assumptions
The following are key assumptions driving the projected financials:
§   Mainline PRASM growth is projected to be 5.2% in 2005, 2.6% in 2006, 2.2% in 2007, 2.2% in 2008, 2.1% in 2009 and 2.1% in 20101
 
§   Mainline available seat miles (“ASM”s), revenue passenger miles (“RPM”s) and load factor remain substantially constant through 2010
 
§   Crude oil prices forecasted to be $50 per barrel during projection period
  §   $6.72 per barrel crack spread
 
  §   $150 million of annual fuel hedging expense (effectively increases fuel expense by $2.50 per barrel)
§   Costs savings initiatives, primarily consisting of Business Improvement Initiatives and Resource Optimization, continue to ramp-in through 2010
Fresh start reporting
Fresh start reporting adjustments have been made to the balance sheet to reflect the estimated adjustments necessary to adopt fresh start reporting in accordance with American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position 90-7, Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code ("SOP 90-7"). Fresh start reporting requires an allocation of the reorganization value of the reorganized company to the entity's assets in conformity with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, Business Combinations ("SFAS 141"). SOP 90-7 also requires that all liabilities, other than deferred taxes, should be stated at present values of the amounts to be paid determined at appropriate current interest rates. In essence, fresh-start reporting treats the reorganized company as if it was a newly acquired company and requires adjustments to (i) record tangible and identified intangible assets at fair market value, (ii) reflect new debt structure at present value, (iii) reflect new basis of assets and liabilities in deferred taxes, and (iv) determine new equity value. The Company has made an initial high-level estimate of the reorganization value, which results in negative goodwill (i.e. the aggregate fair market value of the Company's tangible and identified intangible assets is greater than the high-level assumption of reorganization value). In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting No. 142 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, this negative goodwill has been allocated among the Company's tangible and identified intangible assets, reducing their carrying value below fair market value.
The fair values for all assets and liabilities included in G6 represented the Company's best estimates based upon preliminary valuations, industry trends, reference to market rates and transactions and current estimates regarding values distributed in settling pre-petition obligations. The estimates of plan distributions and fair value are under continued review and refinement, and as a result are subject to change. There can be no assurances that the estimates, assumptions, and values reflected herein will not differ from the values ultimately reflected as of the date of emergence.
Updates to G6
As highlighted above, the Company completed the financial projections in August 2005 based upon actual results through June 2005. The Company has since incorporated actual results through October 2005 into the financial projections presented herein. In addition, it updated certain balance sheet assumptions to reflect the terms of the Facility. The Company has not, however, amended any of its operating assumptions for the balance of 2005 and beyond. Nonetheless, small variances between the financial projections herein and those published with the Company's Amended Disclosure Statement that has been filed with the bankruptcy court can be noted, which result from those incurred through October 2005.
 
1   Excludes a small percentage of mainline revenue related to the reclassification of a portion of revenue from United’s Mileage Plus program in accordance with the accounting change discussed in the Form 10-Q for the period ending March 31, 2005 under the heading “UAL Loyalty Services, LLC.”

Fuel assumptions
United’s long-term fuel forecast is based on a combination of information sources. The primary sources of information include a monthly forecast prepared by PIRA energy consulting group, the forward curve for NYMEX oil and heating oil futures and United’s read on the overall market performance and direction. United assumes a long-term crude oil price of $50 per barrel for 2006 to 2010, or an equivalent of jet fuel price of $1.48 per gallon (before hedging expenses).
In recent months, the cost of jet fuel has increased dramatically due to increased crude oil prices and Hurricane Rita’s effect on refinery capacity and, hence, crack spreads. For the third quarter of 2005, crude oil prices averaged $63.19/bbl. While crack spreads averaged approximately 20% of crude prices through August, they spiked to 43% and 80% on average for September and October, respectively. As a result, fuel expense for United for the third quarter of 2005 was $301 million higher when compared to fuel expense for the third quarter of 2004, representing a 37.4% increase, or $592 million higher when compared to fuel expense for the third quarter of 2003, representing a 115% increase.
United has been able to recover significant portions of the higher than forecasted fuel prices with higher than forecasted fare levels as evidenced in the following exhibit. United believes that historical data supports a direct correlation between fuel prices and ticket prices when crude oil prices exceed $50 per barrel, and the Company estimates that United can recover approximately 60% of the higher fuel cost through higher fares.
The chart below sets forth fuel price as compared to average ticket prices in 2005:
Fuel prices (¢/gallon jet fuel) vs. average ticket price
(GRAPH CHART)

 


 

United has provided a sensitivity analysis which assumes a price of $2.00 per gallon1 of jet fuel. The increase in fuel price assumption causes mainline and UAX fuel cost (excluding hedging) to increase by approximately $1,360 million, or 35%, over the Company’s financial projections. Based on the 60% fuel cost recovery rate, the sensitivity case incorporates approximately $820 million of incremental passenger revenue. The sensitivity case also assumes the elimination of the $150 million hedging expense, and a net positive impact of $25 million driven by higher cargo revenue, higher revenue related costs and lower profit sharing expenses.
As a result, the Company estimates the impact on projected earnings of this hypothetical increase in projected fuel price at approximately $365 million in 2006. In this scenario the Company remains in compliance with its fixed charge coverage ratio.
