Delta posts $1.11 billion profit for third quarter and sees strong holiday bookings_我的网站

一 |     Planes packed with summer travelers boosted Delta Air Lines to a $1.11 billion profit in the third quarter, and the carrier said Thursday that it expects revenue to keep rising into the holiday season.Profit was up 59% from a year earlier, as strong ticket sales — especially for premium seats and international flights — helped Delta shrug off higher labor costs.The Atlanta-based airline predicted ranges for fourth-quarter and full-year profit that mostly exceed Wall Street expectations.“I think we’re closing the year strong, and the holiday bookings that we see right now are pretty good,” CEO Ed Bastian said in an interview. “Domestic (travel) is solid, and international is really strong.”U.S. airlines are flying high as the travel recovery that began last year shows few signs of slowing down.Delta increased its passenger-carrying capacity an aggressive 16% and was able to fill all those extra seats. Travelers flew 64 billion miles on the airline in the quarter, a 17% increase, and they filled 88% of the seats on the average flight, a point higher than last summer.Revenue from ticket sales in the main cabin grew 12% — and 17% for premium seating. Money from Delta’s loyalty program soared 21%.The program, called SkyMiles, has become so popular that there are far more passengers hoping for upgrades to better seats than available seats. Lines can grow long at Delta lounges at busy airports like Atlanta and New York’s JFK.But when Delta announced changes to deal with the overcrowding last month — including basing elite frequent-flyer status purely on spending, and limiting lounge access for holders of Delta credit cards — the reaction from longtime customers was quick and brutal. Some vowed to switch airlines. Alaska Airlines and JetBlue fished for disgruntled Delta members by promising elite status in their programs. Even Bastian admitted the airline “ probably went too far.” Bastian has promised to modify the unpopular changes, but he hasn’t given any details yet.“We are working on that. We’ll be announcing something in the coming days,” Bastian said in the interview. He said he has received “a lot of feedback – everyone had their own ideas as to how we might restructure the program. Almost universally, people acknowledged that we needed to do something.” Delta's third-quarter profit, adjusted to exclude one-time items, was $2.03 per share, 8 cents better than forecast by analysts in a FactSet survey. Revenue rose 11% to $15.49 billion, also beating expectations.For the fourth quarter, Delta said revenue will rise as much as 11% from a year ago and it will earn between $1.05 to $1.30 per share. Analysts expected $1.09.The airline predicted that full-year profit will land between $6 and $6.25 per share after saying in June it would be at the top end of a $5-to-$6 range. The short-term outlook would be rosier if not for a recent pickup in jet fuel prices — although fuel is still much cheaper than it was a year ago. Bastian expressed confidence that Delta and other carriers can raise prices enough to cover any increase in fuel expense. Shares of Delta were virtually flat in morning trading.。    SK海力士明确否认正在推进收购英特尔俄亥俄州半导体园区的报道，但该公司赴美建厂的大方向已基本明朗。         韩国《中央日报》7月22日援引匿名知情人士报道称，SK海力士正与英特尔就收购俄亥俄州半导体园区展开谈判，目标是在五年内于美国本土生产存储芯片。         该报道随即引发市场广泛关注。同日，SK海力士发布澄清公告，明确表示"没有推进或决定收购英特尔俄亥俄州地块及晶圆厂（Fab）的事实"，但同时承认"持续评估各类投资和收购机会"。

二 |          尽管收购传闻遭到否认，SK海力士扩大美国本土生产布局的压力仍在持续。

三 | 该公司财务负责人金宇铉（김우현）签署了上述澄清公告。         报道称谈判进行中，SK海力士予以否认          韩媒报道援引"熟悉SK海力士内部情况的匿名人士"称，与英特尔的收购谈判已进入实质阶段，"内部审查和政府审批程序正在推进"，收购金额与时间尚在协商中。         英特尔俄亥俄州园区位于纽阿尔巴尼市，于2022年破土动工，目前已完成混凝土浇筑和钢结构等主要基础施工，规划总面积约404万平方米，可建设8座晶圆厂，全面开发预计耗资约1000亿美元。英特尔原计划在第一阶段投入约280亿美元、于2025年完工"Fab 27"和"Fab 28"两座工厂，但受代工业务客户拓展不利及资金压力影响，工厂投产时间已推迟至2030至2031年。

四 |          针对上述报道，SK海力士在韩国交易所澄清公告平台发布声明，明确否认了收购推进或决策的存在，但措辞留有余地，未排除未来进行相关评估的可能性。         美国施压在先，赴美建厂方向已定          否认收购传闻的背景下，SK海力士赴美扩产的战略意图已通过高层表态公开确认。SK集团会长崔泰源7月15日在济州岛大韩商工会议所夏季论坛上表示，"目前存储芯片价格异常偏高，需要扩大供应、压低价格"，并明确提出"不仅要在湖南，也要在美国建设半导体工厂，现在正在寻找地点，需要尽快推进"。         来自美国政府的压力是重要背景。

五 | 美国商务部长Howard Lutnick本月10日出席美光纽约工厂活动时表示，希望"召唤三星电子和SK海力士来美国建设生产设施"。半导体业界普遍将这一表态解读为，美方要求已从封装后道工序延伸至DRAM等存储芯片前道工序的本土化生产。

六 |          目前，SK海力士正在印第安纳州投资约38.7亿美元建设高带宽存储器（HBM）封装生产基地，预计2028年投产。三星电子则正在德克萨斯州泰勒市推进约370亿美元的先进代工厂及研发设施建设项目。
