Sky Harbour Group (NYSE:SKYH) Posts Earnings Results, Misses Estimates By $0.01 EPS

Sky Harbour Group (NYSE:SKYH – Get Free Report) posted its quarterly earnings results on Tuesday. The company reported ($0.11) earnings per share (EPS) for the quarter, missing the consensus estimate of ($0.10) by ($0.01), Zacks reports. Sky Harbour Group had a return on equity of 6.45% and a net margin of 2.73%. The company had revenue of $8.36 million during the quarter, compared to the consensus estimate of $10.55 million.

Here are the key takeaways from Sky Harbour Group’s conference call:

  • Q3 revenue increased 45% year over year and 7% sequentially, while completed and in-progress construction reached a record $439 million. Management attributed revenue growth to new campus openings and higher occupancy and rents.
  • The company lowered its year-end Adjusted EBITDA run-rate outlook to break-even to $4 million, from $4 million to $6 million, citing delayed Addison 2 revenue and startup costs at Bradley. Q3 Adjusted EBITDA was approximately negative $0.5 million, as operating expenses rose ahead of campus openings.
  • Sky Harbour reported nearly $200 million in cash and Treasuries, plus about $130 million available under its committed bank facility. Management said its debt is fixed-rate and expects Public Warrant exercises could provide more than $90 million in equity capital.
  • The company added Van Nuys to its airport pipeline, expanded plans at Dulles, and announced three third-party construction contracts representing about $38 million in revenue. Management said its in-house steel manufacturing and general contracting capacity could support this business, though it did not disclose expected profitability.
  • Leasing remains a key execution challenge, with about 826,000 square feet to fill and management acknowledging that it expanded the leasing team more slowly than it should have. Denver and Phoenix are taking longer to lease than hoped, while construction costs face pressure from steel and labor inflation.
