<p class="has-drop-cap">Delta Air Lines (NYSE: DAL) reported <a href="https://tokenist.com/delta-air-lines-misses-revenue-expectations-in-q2-eps-in-line/" rel="dofollow" class="deco-link">mixed second-quarter results</a> and a disappointing third-quarter forecast on Thursday, sending shockwaves through the airline industry. The news comes as U.S. carriers grapple with excess capacity and pricing pressures, leading to a broad selloff in airline stocks.</p> 
<h3 id="delta-s-third-quarter-forecast-fell-short-of-wall-street-estimates">Delta’s Third-Quarter Forecast Fell Short of Wall Street Estimates</h3> 
<p>Delta Air Lines posted record second-quarter operating revenue of $16.7 billion, with adjusted operating revenue reaching $15.4 billion, slightly below analyst expectations of $15.47 billion. <br><br>The company’s adjusted earnings per share of $2.36 met expectations, while operating income stood at $2.3 billion with a 14.7% operating margin. Delta also reported strong cash flow, with $2.5 billion from operations and $1.3 billion in free cash flow.</p> 
<p>However, Delta’s third-quarter forecast fell short of Wall Street estimates. The airline projects <a href="https://tokenist.com/investing/how-to-value-a-stock/" rel="dofollow" class="deco-link">earnings per share</a> between $1.70 and $2.00, below analyst expectations of $2.05. Revenue growth is anticipated to be 5% to 7% year-over-year, with an operating margin forecast of 11% to 13%. <br><br>The company cited several factors for the lower outlook, including discounting pressure in the low-end market, reduced transatlantic bookings due to travelers avoiding Paris during the Olympic Games, and increased non-fuel operating costs from moderated capacity growth.</p>

<p>The disappointing forecast from Delta triggered a broader selloff in airline stocks.
