Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation (a) Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of American Airlines Group Inc. (we, us, our and similar terms, or AAG) should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of AAG and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. AAG’s principal subsidiary is American Airlines, Inc. (American). All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated. Management believes that all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of results, consisting of normally recurring items, have been included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the interim periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most significant areas of judgment relate to passenger revenue recognition, the loyalty program, deferred tax assets, as well as pension and retiree medical and other postretirement benefits. (b) Labor Negotiations In May 2023, American and the Allied Pilots Association (APA), the union representing our approximately 13,900 mainline pilots, reached an agreement in principle on a new collective bargaining agreement. In July 2023, a tentative agreement was approved by the APA Board of Directors and is subject to ratification by American’s pilots through a vote that is presently scheduled to close on August 7, 2023. Upon pilot ratification, the ratified agreement will include a provision for a one-time payment of approximately $750 million and provisions for other benefit-related items. Since the tentative agreement has not yet been ratified and there is uncertainty about the outcome of that process, we have not accrued for the one-time payment or the other benefit-related expenses as of June 30, 2023.

The following is our total passenger revenue by geographic region (in millions): Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Domestic $ 9,195 $ 9,120 $ 17,232 $ 15,180 Latin America 1,640 1,534 3,555 2,761 Atlantic 1,888 1,481 2,819 1,947 Pacific 255 88 475 153 Total passenger revenue $ 12,978 $ 12,223 $ 24,081 $ 20,041 We attribute passenger revenue by geographic region based upon the origin and destination of each flight segment. Contract Balances Our significant contract liabilities are comprised of (1) outstanding loyalty program mileage credits that may be redeemed for future travel and other non-air travel awards, reported as loyalty program liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and (2) ticket sales for transportation that has not yet been provided, reported as air traffic liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. June 30, 2023 December 31, 2022 (In millions) Loyalty program liability $ 9,376 $ 9,145 Air traffic liability 8,530 6,745 Total $ 17,906 $ 15,890 The balance of the loyalty program liability fluctuates based on seasonal patterns, which impact the volume of mileage credits issued through travel or sold to co-branded credit card and other partners (deferral of revenue) and mileage credits redeemed (recognition of revenue). Changes in loyalty program liability are as follows (in millions): Balance at December 31, 2022 $ 9,145 Deferral of revenue 2,002 Recognition of revenue (1) (1,771) Balance at June 30, 2023 (2) $ 9,376 (1) Principally relates to revenue recognized from the redemption of mileage credits for both air and non-air travel awards. Mileage credits are combined in one homogenous pool and are not separately identifiable. As such, the revenue is comprised of mileage credits that were part of the loyalty program deferred revenue balance at the beginning of the period, as well as mileage credits that were issued during the period. (2) Mileage credits can be redeemed at any time and generally do not expire as long as that AAdvantage member has any type of qualifying activity at least every 24 months or if the AAdvantage member is the primary holder of a co-branded credit card. As of June 30, 2023, our current loyalty program liability was $3.5 billion and represents our current estimate of revenue expected to be recognized in the next 12 months based on historical as well as projected trends, with the balance reflected in long-term loyalty program liability expected to be recognized as revenue in periods thereafter. The air traffic liability principally represents tickets sold for future travel on American and partner airlines. The balance in our air traffic liability also fluctuates with seasonal travel patterns. The contract duration of passenger tickets is one year. Accordingly, any revenue associated with tickets sold for future travel will be recognized within 12 months. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, $4.7 billion of revenue was recognized in passenger revenue that was included in our air traffic liability at December 31, 2022. Substantially all tickets issued in 2022 and thereafter are no longer subject to change fees which provides more flexibility for customers to change travel plans. Given this new flexibility offered to our customers, our estimate of revenue that will be recognized from the air traffic liability for future flown or unused tickets may be subject to variability and differ from historical experience.

The following is American’s total passenger revenue by geographic region (in millions): Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Domestic $ 9,195 $ 9,120 $ 17,232 $ 15,180 Latin America 1,640 1,534 3,555 2,761 Atlantic 1,888 1,481 2,819 1,947 Pacific 255 88 475 153 Total passenger revenue $ 12,978 $ 12,223 $ 24,081 $ 20,041 American attributes passenger revenue by geographic region based upon the origin and destination of each flight segment. Contract Balances American’s significant contract liabilities are comprised of (1) outstanding loyalty program mileage credits that may be redeemed for future travel and other non-air travel awards, reported as loyalty program liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and (2) ticket sales for transportation that has not yet been provided, reported as air traffic liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. June 30, 2023 December 31, 2022 (In millions) Loyalty program liability $ 9,376 $ 9,145 Air traffic liability 8,530 6,745 Total $ 17,906 $ 15,890 The balance of the loyalty program liability fluctuates based on seasonal patterns, which impact the volume of mileage credits issued through travel or sold to co-branded credit card and other partners (deferral of revenue) and mileage credits redeemed (recognition of revenue). Changes in loyalty program liability are as follows (in millions): Balance at December 31, 2022 $ 9,145 Deferral of revenue 2,002 Recognition of revenue (1) (1,771) Balance at June 30, 2023 (2) $ 9,376 (1) Principally relates to revenue recognized from the redemption of mileage credits for both air and non-air travel awards. Mileage credits are combined in one homogenous pool and are not separately identifiable. As such, the revenue is comprised of mileage credits that were part of the loyalty program deferred revenue balance at the beginning of the period, as well as mileage credits that were issued during the period. (2) Mileage credits can be redeemed at any time and generally do not expire as long as that AAdvantage member has any type of qualifying activity at least every 24 months or if the AAdvantage member is the primary holder of a co-branded credit card. As of June 30, 2023, American’s current loyalty program liability was $3.5 billion and represents American’s current estimate of revenue expected to be recognized in the next 12 months based on historical as well as projected trends, with the balance reflected in long-term loyalty program liability expected to be recognized as revenue in periods thereafter. The air traffic liability principally represents tickets sold for future travel on American and partner airlines. The balance in American’s air traffic liability also fluctuates with seasonal travel patterns. The contract duration of passenger tickets is one year. Accordingly, any revenue associated with tickets sold for future travel will be recognized within 12 months. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, $4.7 billion of revenue was recognized in passenger revenue that was included in American’s air traffic liability at December 31, 2022. Substantially all tickets issued in 2022 and thereafter are no longer subject to change fees which provides more flexibility for customers to change travel plans. Given this new flexibility offered to its customers, American’s estimate of revenue that will be recognized from the air traffic liability for future flown or unused tickets may be subject to variability and differ from historical experience.

The Seventh Amendment also amended certain other terms of the 2013 Credit Agreement, including the interest rate and amortization schedule for the 2013 Term Loan Facility, the requirements for delivery of appraisals and certain covenants relating to dispositions of collateral. Additionally, the Seventh Amendment transitioned the benchmark interest rate from LIBOR to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR). As a result, the 2013 Term Loan Facility bears interest at a base rate (subject to a floor of 1.00%) plus an applicable margin of 1.75% or, at American’s option, the SOFR rate for a tenor of one, three or six months, depending on the interest period selected by American (subject to a floor of 0.00%), plus the SOFR adjustment applicable to such interest period and an applicable margin of 2.75%. In March 2023, American and AAG entered into the Eighth Amendment to the 2013 Credit Agreement, pursuant to which American extended the maturity of certain commitments under the 2013 Revolving Facility. The Eighth Amendment also amended certain other terms of the 2013 Credit Agreement, including certain covenants and transitioned the benchmark interest rate from LIBOR to SOFR. T he 2013 Revolving Facility bears interest at a base rate (subject to a floor of 1.00%) plus an applicable margin of 2.25%, 2.50% or 2.75%, depending on AAG’s public corporate rating, or, at American’s option, the SOFR rate for a tenor of one, three or six months, depending on the interest period selected by American (subject to a floor of 0.00%), plus the SOFR adjustment applicable to such interest period plus an applicable margin of 3.25%, 3.50% or 3.75%, depending on AAG’s public corporate rating. Additionally, as a result of the Eighth Amendment, through October 11, 2024, the aggregate commitments under the 2013 Revolving Facility will be $736 million, and thereafter through October 13, 2026, such aggregate commitments will decrease to $563 million. 7.25% Senior Secured Notes On February 15, 2023, as part of the 2013 Term Loan Facility Refinancing, American issued $750 million aggregate principal amount of 7.25% senior secured notes due 2028 (the 7.25% Senior Secured Notes) in a private offering. The 7.25% Senior Secured Notes were issued at par and bear interest at a rate of 7.25% per annum (subject to increase if the collateral coverage ratio described below is not met). Interest on the 7.25% Senior Secured Notes is payable semiannually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year, beginning on August 15, 2023. The 7.25% Senior Secured Notes will mature on February 15, 2028. The obligations of American under the 7.25% Senior Secured Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by AAG. American used the proceeds from the offering of the 7.25% Senior Secured Notes, together with cash on hand, to repay a portion of the term loans then outstanding under the 2013 Term Loan Facility and to pay related fees and expenses. The 7.25% Senior Secured Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of February 15, 2023 (the 7.25% Senior Secured Notes Indenture), by and among American, AAG and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee and collateral agent. The 7.25% Senior Secured Notes are American’s senior secured obligations and are secured on a first lien basis by security interests in certain assets, rights and properties that American uses to provide non-stop scheduled air carrier services between (a) certain airports in the United States and (b) airports in countries in South America (which comprises Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Guyana, Paraguay, Peru, Suriname, Uruguay and Venezuela but does not include territories subject to the sovereignty, control or jurisdiction of a country not otherwise listed herein) and New Zealand (collectively, the 7.25% Senior Secured Notes Collateral). The 7.25% Senior Secured Notes Collateral also secures, on a first lien, pari passu basis with the 7.25% Senior Secured Notes, the 2013 Credit Facilities under the 2013 Credit Agreement. American may redeem the 7.25% Senior Secured Notes, in whole at any time or in part from time to time prior to February 15, 2025, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 7.25% Senior Secured Notes to be redeemed, plus a “make-whole” premium, plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon to but excluding the date of redemption. At any time on or after February 15, 2025, American may redeem all or any of the 7.25% Senior Secured Notes in whole at any time, or in part from time to time, at the redemption prices described in the 7.25% Senior Secured Notes Indenture, plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon to but excluding the date of redemption. In addition, at any time prior to February 15, 2025, American may redeem up to 40% of the original aggregate principal amount of the 7.25% Senior Secured Notes (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of additional notes) with the net cash proceeds of certain equity offerings, at a redemption price equal to 107.250% of the aggregate principal amount of the 7.25% Senior Secured Notes to be redeemed, plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon to but excluding the date of redemption. Further, if certain change of control transactions occur, each holder of 7.25% Senior Secured Notes may require American to repurchase the 7.25% Senior Secured Notes in whole or in part at a repurchase price of 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but not including the repurchase date. Twice per year, American is required to deliver an appraisal of the 7.25% Senior Secured Notes Collateral and an officer’s certificate demonstrating the calculation of a collateral coverage ratio in relation to the 7.25% Senior Secured Notes Collateral (the 7.25% Senior Secured Notes Collateral Coverage Ratio) as of the date of delivery of the appraisal for the applicable period. If the 7.25% Senior Secured Notes Collateral Coverage Ratio is less than 1.6 to 1.0 as of the date of delivery of the appraisal for the applicable period, then, subject to a cure period in which additional collateral can be provided or debt repaid such that American meets the required 7.25% Senior Secured Notes Collateral Coverage Ratio, American will be required to pay special interest in an additional amount equal to 2.0% per annum of the principal amount of the 7.25% Senior Secured Notes until the 7.25% Senior Secured Notes Collateral Coverage Ratio is established to be at least 1.6 to 1.0. 2014 Credit Facilities In March 2023, American and AAG entered into the Ninth Amendment to the 2014 Credit Agreement, pursuant to which American extended the maturity of certain commitments under the 2014 Revolving Facility. The Ninth Amendment also amended certain other terms of the 2014 Credit Agreement including the requirements for delivery of appraisals and certain other covenants and transitioned the benchmark interest rate for the 2014 Revolving Facility and the 2014 Term Loan Facility from LIBOR to SOFR. T he 2014 Revolving Facility bears interest at the same base rate and applicable margin as the 2013 Revolving Facility, as noted above in “ 2013 Credit Facilities.” The 2014 Term Loan Facility bears interest at a base rate (subject to a floor of 1.00%) plus an applicable margin of 1.75% or, at American’s option, the SOFR rate for a tenor of one, three or six months, depending on the interest period selected by American (subject to a floor of 0.00%), plus the SOFR adjustment applicable to such interest period plus an applicable margin of 0.75%. Additionally, a s a result of the Ninth Amendment, through October 11, 2024, the aggregate commitments under the 2014 Revolving Facility will be $1.6 billion, and thereafter through October 13, 2026, such aggregate commitments will decrease to $1.2 billion. April 2016 Revolving Facility In March 2023, American and AAG entered into the Sixth Amendment to the April 2016 Credit Agreement, pursuant to which American extended the maturity of certain commitments under the April 2016 Revolving Facility. The Sixth Amendment also amended certain other terms under the April 2016 Credit Agreement including the requirements for delivery of appraisals and certain other covenants and transitioned the benchmark interest rate for the April 2016 Revolving Facility from LIBOR to SOFR. The April 2016 Revolving Facility bears interest at the same base rate and applicable margin as the 2013 Revolving Facility, as noted above in “ 2013 Credit Facilities.” Additionally, a s a result of the Sixth Amendment, through October 11, 2024, the aggregate commitments under the April 2016 Revolving Facility will be $446 million, and thereafter through October 13, 2026, such aggregate commitments will decrease to $342 million. AAdvantage Term Loan Facility In June 2023, American and AAdvantage Loyalty IP Ltd. entered into the First Amendment to the AAdvantage Term Loan Facility pursuant to which the benchmark interest rate transitioned from LIBOR to SOFR, effective July 1, 2023. As a result, the AAdvantage Term Loan Facility bears interest at a base rate (subject to a floor of 0.00%) plus an applicable margin of 3.75% or, at American’s option, the SOFR rate for a tenor of three months (subject to a floor of 0.75%), plus a 0.26161% credit spread adjustment and an applicable margin of 4.75%. Other than the foregoing, the terms of the AAdvantage Term Loan Facility remain substantially unchanged. Equipment Loans and Other Notes Payable Issued in 2023 During the first six months of 2023, American entered into agreements under which it borrowed $480 million in connection with the financing of certain aircraft. Debt incurred under these agreements matures in 2032 through 2035 and bears interest at fixed and variable rates (comprised of SOFR plus an applicable margin) averaging 6.63% as of June 30, 2023.

The April 2016 Revolving Facility bears interest at the same base rate and applicable margin as the 2013 Revolving Facility, as noted above in “ 2013 Credit Facilities.” Additionally, a s a result of the Sixth Amendment, through October 11, 2024, the aggregate commitments under the April 2016 Revolving Facility will be $446 million, and thereafter through October 13, 2026, such aggregate commitments will decrease to $342 million. AAdvantage Term Loan Facility In June 2023, American and AAdvantage Loyalty IP Ltd. entered into the First Amendment to the AAdvantage Term Loan Facility pursuant to which the benchmark interest rate transitioned from LIBOR to SOFR, effective July 1, 2023. As a result, the AAdvantage Term Loan Facility bears interest at a base rate (subject to a floor of 0.00%) plus an applicable margin of 3.75% or, at American’s option, the SOFR rate for a tenor of three months (subject to a floor of 0.75%), plus a 0.26161% credit spread adjustment and an applicable margin of 4.75%. Other than the foregoing, the terms of the AAdvantage Term Loan Facility remain substantially unchanged.

Income Taxes	Income Taxes At December 31, 2022, we had approximately $16.2 billion of gross federal net operating losses (NOLs) and $4.3 billion of other carryforwards available to reduce future federal taxable income, of which $5.9 billion will expire beginning in 2024 if unused and $14.6 billion can be carried forward indefinitely. We also had approximately $6.0 billion of NOL carryforwards to reduce future state taxable income at December 31, 2022, which will expire in taxable years 2022 through 2042 if unused. Our ability to use our NOLs and other carryforwards depends on the amount of taxable income generated in future periods. We provide a valuation allowance for our deferred tax assets, which include our NOLs, when it is more likely than not that some portion, or all of our deferred tax assets, will not be realized. We consider all available positive and negative evidence and make certain assumptions in evaluating the realizability of our deferred tax assets. Many factors are considered that impact our assessment of future profitability, including conditions which are beyond our control, such as the health of the economy, the availability and price volatility of aircraft fuel and travel demand. We have determined that positive factors outweigh negative factors in the determination of the realizability of our deferred tax assets. There can be no assurance that an additional valuation allowance on our net deferred tax assets will not be required. Such valuation allowance could be material. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded an income tax provision of $425 million and $431 million, respectively.

AMR Corporation, et al., was filed in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (Bankruptcy Court). The complaint named as defendants US Airways Group, US Airways, Inc., AMR Corporation and American, alleged that the effect of the merger of US Airways Group and AMR Corporation (the Merger) may be to create a monopoly in violation of Section 7 of the Clayton Antitrust Act, and sought injunctive relief and/or divestiture. On November 27, 2013, the Bankruptcy Court denied plaintiffs’ motion to preliminarily enjoin the Merger. On August 29, 2018, the Bankruptcy Court denied in part defendants’ motion for summary judgment, and fully denied plaintiffs’ cross-motion for summary judgment. The parties’ evidentiary cases were presented before the Bankruptcy Court in a bench trial in March 2019 and the parties submitted proposed findings of fact and conclusions of law and made closing arguments in April 2019. On January 29, 2021, the Bankruptcy Court published its decision finding in our favor. On March 25, 2022, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York entered judgment affirming the Bankruptcy Court’s decision. On April 21, 2022, plaintiffs appealed that decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. On March 20, 2023, the Second Circuit affirmed in full the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York’s decision. On June 20, 2023, plaintiffs filed a petition seeking a writ of certiorari to the U.S. Supreme Court, which was docketed on June 22, 2023. Our brief in opposition, if any, is due July 24, 2023. We believe this lawsuit is without merit and intend to continue to vigorously defend against any further appeals by the plaintiffs. Government Antitrust Action Related to the Northeast Alliance. On September 21, 2021, the United States Department of Justice (DOJ), joined by Attorneys General from six states and the District of Columbia, filed an antitrust complaint against American and JetBlue Airways Corporation (JetBlue) in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts alleging that American and JetBlue violated U.S. antitrust law in connection with the previously disclosed Northeast Alliance arrangement (NEA). The parties presented their respective cases in a bench trial that commenced on September 27, 2022. The parties presented closing arguments on November 18, 2022. On May 19, 2023, the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts issued an order permanently enjoining American and JetBlue from continuing and further implementing the NEA. The parties submitted respective proposals regarding the timing and terms of the final injunction order on June 9, 2023, and the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts scheduled a hearing for July 26, 2023 to discuss the proposals. The injunction will take effect 21 days after the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts issues a final judgment and permanent injunction. American plans to appeal the final judgment to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit. Private Party Antitrust Actions Related to the Northeast Alliance. On December 5, 2022 and December 7, 2022, two private party plaintiffs filed putative class action antitrust complaints against American and JetBlue in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York alleging that American and JetBlue violated U.S. antitrust law in connection with the previously disclosed NEA. These actions were consolidated on January 10, 2023. The private party plaintiffs filed an amended consolidated complaint on February 3, 2023. On February 2, 2023 and February 15, 2023, private party plaintiffs filed two additional putative class action antitrust complaints against American and JetBlue in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts and the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York, respectively. On May 12, 2023 and May 24, 2023, respectively, the complaint filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York was consolidated with the other actions and the complaint filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts was transferred to the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York. On June 23, 2023, the private party plaintiffs filed a second amended consolidated complaint. We believe these lawsuits are without merit and are defending against them vigorously. General. In addition to the specifically identified legal proceedings, we and our subsidiaries are also engaged in other legal proceedings from time to time. Legal proceedings can be complex and take many months, or even years, to reach resolution, with the final outcome depending on a number of variables, some of which are not within our control. Therefore, although we will vigorously defend ourselves in each of the actions described above and such other legal proceedings, their ultimate resolution and potential financial and other impacts on us are uncertain but could be material.

On April 21, 2022, plaintiffs appealed that decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. On March 20, 2023, the Second Circuit affirmed in full the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York’s decision. On June 20, 2023, plaintiffs filed a petition seeking a writ of certiorari to the U.S. Supreme Court, which was docketed on June 22, 2023. American’s brief in opposition, if any, is due July 24, 2023. American believes this lawsuit is without merit and intends to continue to vigorously defend against any further appeals by the plaintiffs. Government Antitrust Action Related to the Northeast Alliance. On September 21, 2021, the United States Department of Justice (DOJ), joined by Attorneys General from six states and the District of Columbia, filed an antitrust complaint against American and JetBlue Airways Corporation (JetBlue) in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts alleging that American and JetBlue violated U.S. antitrust law in connection with the previously disclosed Northeast Alliance arrangement (NEA). The parties presented their respective cases in a bench trial that commenced on September 27, 2022. The parties presented closing arguments on November 18, 2022. On May 19, 2023, the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts issued an order permanently enjoining American and JetBlue from continuing and further implementing the NEA. The parties submitted respective proposals regarding the timing and terms of the final injunction order on June 9, 2023, and the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts scheduled a hearing for July 26, 2023 to discuss the proposals. The injunction will take effect 21 days after the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts issues a final judgment and permanent injunction. American plans to appeal the final judgment to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit. Private Party Antitrust Actions Related to the Northeast Alliance. On December 5, 2022 and December 7, 2022, two private party plaintiffs filed putative class action antitrust complaints against American and JetBlue in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York alleging that American and JetBlue violated U.S. antitrust law in connection with the previously disclosed NEA. These actions were consolidated on January 10, 2023. The private party plaintiffs filed an amended consolidated complaint on February 3, 2023. On February 2, 2023 and February 15, 2023, private party plaintiffs filed two additional putative class action antitrust complaints against American and JetBlue in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts and the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York, respectively. On May 12, 2023 and May 24, 2023, respectively, the complaint filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York was consolidated with the other actions and the complaint filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts was transferred to the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York. On June 23, 2023, the private party plaintiffs filed a second amended consolidated complaint. American believes these lawsuits are without merit and is defending against them vigorously. General. In addition to the specifically identified legal proceedings, American and its subsidiaries are also engaged in other legal proceedings from time to time. Legal proceedings can be complex and take many months, or even years, to reach resolution, with the final outcome depending on a number of variables, some of which are not within American’s control. Therefore, although American will vigorously defend itself in each of the actions described above and such other legal proceedings, their ultimate resolution and potential financial and other impacts on American are uncertain but could be material.

Management believes that all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of results, consisting of normally recurring items, have been included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the interim periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

In July 2023, a tentative agreement was approved by the APA Board of Directors and is subject to ratification by American’s pilots through a vote that is presently scheduled to close on August 7, 2023. Upon pilot ratification, the ratified agreement will include a provision for a one-time payment of approximately $750 million and provisions for other benefit-related items.
