ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Results of Operations
Third Quarter 1997 Compared with Third Quarter
Net income for the third quarter of 1997 was $40.2 million compared with a
net income of $31.5 million in 1996. Operating income for the third
quarter of 1997 was $69.3 million compared to $57.0 million for 1996. The
larger operating income reflects higher passenger yields and lower fuel
prices. Airline financial and statistical data is shown following the
financial statements. A discussion of this data follows.
Operating income increased 21.6% to $69.3 million, resulting in a 16.5%
operating margin as compared to a 14.9% margin in 1996. Operating revenue
per available seat mile (ASM) increased 7.7% to 10.06 cents while operating
expenses per ASM increased 5.7% to 8.40 cents.
The increase in revenue per ASM was due to a 9.0% increase in system
passenger yield, offset by a modest decrease in passenger load factor.
Most markets experienced increases in yields, including the three largest
(Southern California, Seattle-Anchorage and Northern California). The
higher load factor in 1996 was due to extremely low fares available in
certain markets during 1996.
Other-net revenues increased 6.3% primarily due to increased revenues from
Alaska's frequent flyer program.
The table below shows the major operating expense elements on a cost per
ASM basis for Alaska for the third quarters of 1996 and 1997.
Alaska Airlines Operating Expenses Per ASM (In Cents)
1996 1997 Change % Change
Wages and benefits 2.44 2.67 .23 9

Alaska Airlines Total 7.95 8.40 .45 6
NM = Not Meaningful
Alaska's higher unit costs were primarily due to increased labor and
aircraft maintenance costs. Significant unit cost changes are discussed
below.
Employees increased 8.3% (primarily in reservations and customer service
positions) to improve on-time performance, which improved from 73% on-time
in 1996 to 78% on-time in 1997. Excluding profit sharing, average wages
and benefits per employee were up 2.8% primarily due to higher pilot wage
rates and higher health insurance costs. The net effect was that wages and
benefits expense increased more than the ASM growth, resulting in a 9%
increase in cost per ASM.
Effective for 1997, Alaska changed its profit sharing program so that
eligible employees will receive their pro rata share of 10% of Alaska's
adjusted pre-tax profits. Actual profit sharing is based on full year
results and will be calculated and paid in early 1998.
Fuel expense per ASM decreased 14%, due to a 14% decrease in the price of
fuel.
Maintenance expense per ASM increased 34% because Alaska performed more
repair work that is expensed currently and less major airframe and engine
overhaul work which is capitalized.
Commission expense per ASM increased 14%, in line with the 11% increase in
passenger revenues.
Other expense per ASM increased 9%. The increase is primarily due to
higher costs related to property taxes, flight crew hotels, employee hiring
and communications.
Other Income (Expense) Non-operating expense decreased $2.4 million to
$1.7 million primarily due to smaller average debt balances and lower
interest rates on variable interest rate debt.
Nine Months 1997 Compared with Nine Months 1996
Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 was $61.5 million,
compared with a net income of $45.3 million in 1996. Operating income for
the first nine months of 1997 increased 20.8% to $109.9 million, resulting
in a 10.0% operating margin as compared to a 9.1% margin in 1996.
Operating revenue per ASM increased 7.6% to 9.47 cents while operating
expenses per ASM increased 6.4% to 8.53 cents. The increase in revenue per
ASM was due to a 2.2 point improvement in system passenger load factor
combined with a 5.1% increase in system passenger yield.
Unit costs increased 6.4% due to a 9.0% increase in employees, increased
pilot wage rates, $2.1 million more profit sharing expense, higher ground
handling and security costs, increased aircraft maintenance expense and
costs associated with higher load factors.
Income Tax Expense Accounting standards require the Company to provide for
income taxes each quarter based on its estimate of the effective tax rate
for the full year. The volatility of air fares and the seasonality of the
Company's business make it very difficult to estimate full-year pretax
results. In addition, a relatively small change in pretax results can
cause a significant change in the effective tax rate due to the magnitude
of nondeductible expenses, such as goodwill amortization and employee per
diem costs. In estimating the 40.7% tax rate for the first nine months of
1997, the Company considered a variety of factors, including the U.S.
federal rate of 35%, estimates of nondeductible expenses and state income
taxes, and the 38.8% tax rate used for full year 1996. This rate is
evaluated each quarter and adjustments are made if necessary.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The table below presents the major indicators of financial condition and
liquidity.
Dec 31, 1996 Sep 30, 1997 Change
(In millions, except debt-to-equity)
Cash and marketable securities $101.6 $191.5 $89.9
Working capital (deficit) (152.0) (97.1) 54.9
Long-term debt and
capital lease obligations 217.8 225.3 7.5
Shareholders' equity 357.0 418.5 61.5
Debt-to-equity 38%:62% 35%:65% NA
The Company's cash and marketable securities portfolio increased by $90
million during the first nine months of 1997. Operating activities
provided $227 million of cash during this period. Additional cash was
provided by the sale and leaseback of four B737-400 aircraft ($124 million)
and issuance of long-term debt ($28 million). Cash was used for $225
million of capital expenditures including the purchase of two new MD-83
aircraft, three new B737-400 aircraft, a previously leased B737-200C
aircraft, flight equipment deposits and airframe and engine overhauls, net
repayment of short-term borrowings ($47 million) and the repayment of debt
($16 million).
In June 1997, Standard & Poors revised its outlook on Alaska to positive
from stable, citing a stabilized competitive position and improving
financial profile.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings
In October 1991, Alaska gave notice of termination of its code sharing and
frequent flyer relationship with MarkAir, an airline based in the state of
Alaska. Both companies have filed suit against one another in connection
with that termination alleging breach of contract and other causes of
action under state law. In June 1992, MarkAir filed for protection under
Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and ceased operations in 1995. In
June 1997 MarkAir claimed damages of $57 million (later revised to $70
million) in connection with Alaska's actions. If MarkAir were to prevail,
the after-tax effect would be to reduce shareholders' equity by
approximately $42 million or 10%. However, the Company believes that it
has adequate defenses and is vigorously defending itself against the
lawsuit.
ITEM 5. Other Information
The U.S. 10% passenger ticket tax, the 6.25% cargo waybill tax and the $6
per passenger international departure tax expired on December 31, 1996, and
were all reinstated for the period March 7, 1997 through September 30,
1997. As part of the Taxpayer Relief Act, the cargo waybill tax was
extended in its current form and the other taxes in revised forms through
September 30, 2007. The passenger ticket tax was replaced with a new
system that combines a percentage tax with a per passenger segment fee.
For sales and travel beginning October 1, 1997, the ticket tax is 9% plus
$1 per segment. The percentage tax is scheduled to decrease over time and
the segment fee is scheduled to increase. The $6 international departure
tax has increased to $12 and a new $12 international arrival tax has been
added. However, the Act retains the $6 rate for travel between Alaska and
the U.S. mainland. This tax and the international taxes will be indexed to
the CPI beginning January 1, 1999.
The Taxpayer Relief Act also included these items that will affect the
Company and the airline industry: (a) a new tax of 7.5% on payments to air
carriers for the sale of miles in frequent flyer programs; (b) a phased-in
increase from 50% to 80% for the deductible percentage of per diems paid to
flight crews; and (c) faster cost recovery for alternative minimum tax
purposes of aircraft purchased in 1999 and later years.
In September 1997, the union contract governing approximately 1,800
Mechanic, Rampservice and related classifications at Alaska Airlines became
amendable. The union and Alaska have begun negotiating a new contract.
During October 1997, the Airline Pilots Association and Alaska agreed on a
new 5 and 1/2 year contract (amendable in May 2002) covering Alaska's 1,075
pilots.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS THAT HAVE CHANGED SIGNIFICANTLY DURING THE
NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1997
Alaska Airlines, Inc.
Note 1. Summary of Significant Policies (See Note 1 to Financial
Statements at December 31, 1996)
Basis of presentation
Effective with the second quarter 1997, three new line items have been
added to the statement of income to provide more details of operating
expenses. Contracted services includes the expenses for aircraft ground
handling, security, temporary employees and similar outside services.
Other selling expenses includes computerized reservations systems (CRS)
charges, credit card commissions, advertising and promotional costs.
Property, Equipment and Depreciation
Effective January 1, 1997, the estimated salvage value of B737-400 flight
equipment was changed to 10% from 20%. The new estimate was adopted to
recognize the lower expected salvage values for this aircraft type. The
annual effect of the change will be to increase depreciation expense $0.5
million and decrease net income $0.3 million.
Note 2. Commitments (See Note 6 to Financial Statements at December 31,
1996)
During the first nine months of 1997, Alaska's lease commitments increased
approximately $200 million due to the sale and leaseback of four B737-400
aircraft under 18-year operating leases.
