The reasons Delta uses these measures are described below. Reconciliations may not calculate due to rounding. Delta sometimes uses information ("non-GAAP financial measures") that is derived from the Consolidated Financial Statements, but that is not presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP"). Under the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules, non-GAAP financial measures may be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results. The tables below show reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures used in this presentation to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Forward Looking Projections. While we are able to reconcile forward looking non-GAAP financial measures related to 2019, we do not reconcile future period measures (i.e., beyond 2019) because the adjusting items such as those used in the reconciliations below will not be known until the end of the period and could be significant. ▲ DELTA 81#82Non-GAAP Reconciliations Pre-Tax Income and Net Income, Adjusted We adjust pre-tax income and net income for the following items to determine pre-tax income and net income, adjusted for the reasons described below. We include the income tax effect of adjustments when presenting net income, adjusted. MTM adjustments and settlements. Mark-to-market ("MTM") adjustments are defined as fair value changes recorded in periods other than the settlement period. Such fair value changes are not necessarily indicative of the actual settlement value of the underlying hedge in the contract settlement period. Settlements represent cash received or paid on hedge contracts settled during the period. Equity investment MTM adjustments. We record our proportionate share of earnings/loss from our equity investments in Virgin Atlantic and Aeroméxico in non-operating expense. We adjust for our equity method investees' hedge portfolio MTM adjustments to allow investors to better understand and analyze our core operational performance in the periods shown. Unrealized gain/loss on investments. We record the unrealized gains/losses on our equity investments in GOL, China Eastern, Air France-KLM and Korean Air, which are accounted for at fair value in non-operating expense. Adjusting for these gains/losses allows investors to better understand and analyze our core operational performance in the periods shown. Restructuring and other and Loss on extinguishment of debt. Because of the variability from period to period, the adjustments for these items are helpful to investors to analyze the company's core operational performance in the periods shown. (Projected) Year Ended (Projected) Year Ended December 31, 2019 December 31, 2019 (in billions) GAAP Adjusted for: Pre-Tax Income Income Tax Net Income Net Income Per Diluted Share $ 6.1 $ 1.4 $ 4.7 $ ~ $6.90 $7.40 Unrealized gain/loss on investments Non-GAAP $ (0.1) 6.0 (0.1) ~ (0.15) $ 1.4 $ 4.6 $ ~ $6.75 - $7.25 Free cash flow to net income conversion - 80% - 90% (in billions) GAAP Adjusted for: MTM adjustments and settlements Equity investment MTM adjustments Restructuring and other Loss on extinguishment of debt Total adjustments Non-GAAP Year Ended December 31, 2017 Year Ended December 31, 2010 Pre-Tax Income Pre-Tax Income $ 5.5 $ 0.6 (0.3) 0.1 0.5 0.4 15 (0.2) 0.9 5.3 $ 5415 ▲ DELTA 82#83Non-GAAP Reconciliations Operating Revenue, Adjusted We adjust operating revenue for refinery sales to third parties to determine operating revenue, adjusted because refinery sales to third parties are not related to our airline segment. Operating revenue, adjusted therefore provide a more meaningful comparison of revenue from our airline operations to the rest of the airline industry. Because we sold DAL Global Services, LLC ("DGS") in December 2018, we have excluded the impact of DGS from 2018 results for comparability. We do not present reconciliations for the years ended December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 as the adjusted operating revenue in these years is the same as the GAAP operating revenue. (in millions) Operating revenue Third-party refinery sales DGS sale adjustment Operating revenue, adjusted $ (Projected) Year Ended December 31, 2019 Year Ended December 31, 2018 Change ~46,850 $ ~(150) 44,438 (548) (244) -46,700 $ 43,645 ~7% ADELTA 83#84Non-GAAP Reconciliations Free Cash Flow We present free cash flow because management believes this metric is helpful to investors to evaluate the company's ability to generate cash that is available for use for debt service or general corporate initiatives. Adjustments include: Net purchases (redemptions) of short-term investments. Net redemptions of short-term investments represent the net purchase and sale activity of investments and marketable securities in the period, including gains and losses. We adjust for this activity to provide investors a better understanding of the company's free cash flow generated by our operations. Net cash flows related to certain airport construction projects and other. Cash flows related to certain airport construction projects are included in our GAAP operating activities and capital expenditures. We have adjusted for these items, which were primarily funded by cash restricted for airport construction, to provide investors a better understanding of the company's free cash flow and capital expenditures that are core to our operational performance in the periods shown. Hedge deferrals. During the March 2016 quarter, we deferred settlement of a portion of our hedge portfolio until 2017 by entering into transactions that, excluding market movements from the date of inception, would provide approximately $300 million in cash receipts during the second half of 2016 and require approximately $300 million in cash payments in 2017. Free cash flow is adjusted to include the impact of these deferral transactions in order to allow investors to understand the net impact of hedging activities in the period shown. 2017 pension plan contribution. In 2017, we contributed $2 billion to our pension plans using net proceeds from our debt issuance. We adjusted free cash flow to exclude this contribution to allow investors to understand the cash flows related to our core operations in the periods shown. Strategic Investments. Cash flows related to our investment in Grupo Aeroméxico and Air France-KLM, are included in our GAAP investing activities. We adjust free cash flow for this activity because it provides a more meaningful comparison to the airline industry. (in billions) Net cash provided by operating activities Net cash used in investing activities Adjustments: Net purchases (redemptions) of short-term investments Net cash flows related to certain airport construction projects and other Hedge deferrals 2017 pension plan contribution Strategic investments Total free cash flow (Projected) Year Ended December 31, 2019 Year Ended December 31, 2018 Year Ended December 31, 2017 $ -9 ~(5) $ 7.0 $ 5.0 (4.4) (5.3) (0.6) 0.4 0.4 0.1 (0.2) 2.0 1.2 4 2.4 3.2 ADELTA 84#85Non-GAAP Reconciliations Capital Expenditures, Net We present core capital spending which includes proceeds for sales of E190 aircraft because management believes investors should be informed that these proceeds effectively offset the cash paid for these aircraft earlier in the year. Management believes investors should be informed that reimbursements for build-to-suit leased facilities effectively reduce net cash provided by operating activities. (in billions) (Projected) Year Ended December 31, 2019 Year Ended December 31, 2018 Year Ended December 31, 2017 Year Ended December 31, 2016 Flight equipment, including advance payments $ ~3.4 3.7 $ 2.7 2.6 Ground property and equipment, including technology ~1.7 1.5 1.2 0.8 Net cash flows related to certain airport construction projects Proceeds from sale of E190 aircraft ~(0.6) (0.5) (0.2) (0.2) Capital expenditures, net Operating revenue Capital expenditures, net to operating revenue SS ~4.5 $ 4.6 $ 3.7 ~47 $ 44 41 SASA $ 3.2 $ -10% 11% 9% 39 8% ADELTA 85#86Non-GAAP Reconciliations Operating Cash Flow, Adjusted We present operating cash flow, adjusted because management believes adjusting for the following items provides a more meaningful measure for investors. We do not present reconciliations for the years ended December 31, 2019 (Projected) and December 31, 2010 as the adjusted net cash provided by operating activities in these years is the same as the GAAP net cash provided by operating activities. Adjustments include: Reimbursements from third parties related to build-to-suit facilities and other. Management believes investors should be informed that these reimbursements for build-to-suit leased facilities effectively reduce net cash provided by operating activities and related capital expenditures. 2017 pension plan contribution. In 2017, we contributed $2 billion to our pension plans using net proceeds from our debt issuance. We adjusted operating cash flow to exclude this contribution to allow investors to understand the cash flows related to our core operations in the periods shown. Pension plan cash contributions. Operating cash flow is adjusted for our cash contributions to the pension plan as we believe this adjustment allows investors to better understand the cash flows related to our core operations in the periods shown. This adjustment includes the 2017 pension plan contribution of $2 billion. (in billions) Net cash provided by operating activities Adjustments: Reimbursements from third parties related to build-to-suit facilities and other 2017 pension plan contribution Net cash provided by operating activities, adjusted $ (in billions) Net cash provided by operating activities Adjustments: Pension plan cash contributions Net cash provided by operating activities, adjusted, excluding pension plan cash contributions Year Ended December 31, 2017 5.0 (0.2) 2.0 6.8 (Projected) Years Ended December 31, 2010 to December 31, 2019 $ 54 10 64 ADELTA 86#87Non-GAAP Reconciliations After-Tax Return on Invested Capital We present after-tax return on invested capital as management believes this metric is helpful to investors in assessing the company's ability to generate returns using its invested capital as a measure against the industry. Return on invested capital is tax-effected adjusted total pre-tax income divided by average adjusted invested capital. Average adjusted invested capital represents the sum of the adjusted book value of equity at the end of the last five quarters, adjusted for pension and fuel hedge impacts within other comprehensive income. Average adjusted gross debt is calculated using amounts as of the end of the last five quarters. All adjustments to calculate ROIC are intended to provide a more meaningful comparison of our results to the airline industry. (in billions) Pre-tax income Adjusted for: Restructuring and other Interest expense, net and interest expense included in aircraft rent Pre-tax adjusted income Tax effect Tax-effected adjusted total pre-tax income Adjusted book value of equity Average adjusted gross debt Averaged adjusted invested capital After-tax return (Tax-effected adjusted total pre-tax income) Change year-over-year Change year-over-year in invested capital (Projected) Last Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2019 Last Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2010 -6 $ 1 1 ~1 1 EA ~7 $ 3 ~(2) SA ~5 (1) 2 $ ~22 $ 9 ~12 16 $ ~34 $ 17 SA $ -15% -400 bps ~17 -11% ADELTA 87
