Item 8.01. Other Events
On May 6, 2025, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of SkyWest, Inc. (the “Company”) approved a $250 million increase to its existing share repurchase plan. The Company is authorized to repurchase such shares of common stock at prevailing market prices in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or by other means in accordance with federal securities laws. Depending on market conditions and other factors, such repurchases may commence or be suspended from time to time by management without prior notice. The actual timing, number and value of shares repurchased will be determined by the Company’s management in its discretion. There is no expiration date for the repurchase plan. This authorization supplements the Board’s previous share repurchase plan approved in May 2023, which authorized the repurchase of up to $250 million of the Company’s common stock, of which approximately $22 million remained after approximately $12 million was repurchased in April 2025. Following such increase, SkyWest is authorized to repurchase up to approximately $272 million of SkyWest’s common stock. On May 7, the Company issued a press release announcing the new share repurchase plan. A copy of the press release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
