Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
We are furnishing herewith information being presented by one of our executive officers on February 2, 2005 at the JP Morgan Annual High Yield Conference. The presentation information is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
The information presented contains forward-looking statements that are not limited to historical facts, but reflect the Company's current beliefs, expectations or intentions regarding future events. All forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. For examples of such risks and uncertainties, please read the risk factors set forth in the Company's 2003 10-K and its other securities filings, which identify important risks and uncertainties such as the consequences of failing to obtain the $500 million reduction in annual payroll and benefit costs by February 28, 2005, terrorist attacks, domestic and international economic conditions, the significant cost of aircraft fuel, labor costs, competition and industry conditions including the demand for air travel, airline pricing environment and industry capacity decisions, regulatory matters and the seasonal nature of the airline bu siness. In addition to the foregoing risks, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve the needed cost savings and revenue enhancements and payroll and benefits reductions discussed in the presentation, which will depend, among other matters, on successful discussions with employees and their representatives, and other third parties. We undertake no duty or obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that may arise after the date of this report.
