Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods indicated. Results of operations for the periods presented herein are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for the entire year. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of AMR Corporation (AMR or the Company) and its wholly owned subsidiaries, including (i) its principal subsidiary American Airlines, Inc. (American) and (ii) its regional airline subsidiary, AMR Eagle Holding Corporation and its primary subsidiaries, American Eagle Airlines, Inc., Executive Airlines, Inc. and AMR Leasing Corporation (collectively, AMR Eagle). For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the AMR Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 (2004 Form 10-K). 2.The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation plans in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB 25) and related Interpretations. Under APB 25, no compensation expense is recognized for stock option grants if the exercise price of the Company's stock option grants is at or above the fair market value of the underlying stock on the date of grant. The Company has adopted the pro forma disclosure features of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" (SFAS 123), as amended by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure." The following table illustrates the effect on net earnings (loss) and earnings (loss) per share amounts if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123 to stock-based employee compensation (in millions, except per share amounts): Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, 2005 2004 2005 2004 Net earnings (loss), as reported $ 58 $ 6 $(104) $(160) Add: Stock-based employee compensation expense included in reported net earnings (loss) 11 6 18 17 Deduct: Total stock-based employee compensation expense determined under fair value based methods for all awards (27) (22) (48) (49) Pro forma net earnings (loss) $ 42 $ (10) $(134) $(192) Earnings (loss) per share: Basic - as reported $ 0.35 $ 0.04 $(0.64) $(1.00) Diluted - as reported $ 0.30 $ 0.03 $(0.64) $(1.00) Basic - pro forma $ 0.26 $(0.06) $(0.83) $(1.20) Diluted - pro forma $ 0.23 $(0.06) $(0.83) $(1.20) -4- AMR CORPORATION NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (Unaudited) In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment" (SFAS 123(R)). SFAS 123(R) requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values. SFAS 123(R) is effective January 1, 2006 for AMR. Under SFAS 123(R), the Company will recognize compensation expense for the portion of outstanding awards for which service has not yet been rendered, based on the grant-date fair value of those awards calculated under SFAS 123 for pro forma disclosures. The Company has not completed its evaluation of the impact of SFAS 123(R) on its financial statements. 3.As of June 30, 2005, the Company had commitments to acquire: two Embraer regional jets in July 2005; two Boeing 777-200ERs in 2006; and an aggregate of 47 Boeing 737-800s and seven Boeing 777- 200ERs in 2013 through 2016. Future payments for all aircraft, including the estimated amounts for price escalation, will approximate $35 million during the remainder of 2005, $101 million in 2006 and an aggregate of approximately $2.8 billion in 2011 through 2016. The Company has pre-arranged financing or backstop financing for all aircraft deliveries in 2005 and 2006. In 2003, the Company reached concessionary agreements with certain lessors. Certain of these agreements provide that the Company's obligations under the related leases will revert to the original terms if certain events occur prior to December 31, 2005, including: (i) an event of default under the related lease (which generally occurs only if a payment default occurs); (ii) an event of loss with respect to the related aircraft; (iii) rejection by the Company of the lease under the provisions of Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code; or (iv) the Company's filing for bankruptcy under Chapter 7 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. If any one of these events were to occur, the Company would be responsible for approximately $113 million in additional operating lease payments and $119 million in additional payments related to capital leases as of June 30, 2005. These amounts will decrease by approximately $3 million prior to the expiration of the provision on December 31, 2005. These amounts are being accounted for as contingent rentals and will only be recognized if they become payable. 4.Accumulated depreciation of owned equipment and property at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004 was $10.0 billion and $9.6 billion, respectively. Accumulated amortization of equipment and property under capital leases at both June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004 was $1.0 billion. Effective January 1, 2005, in order to more accurately reflect the expected useful life of its aircraft, the Company changed its estimate of the depreciable lives of its Boeing 737-800, Boeing 757- 200 and McDonnell Douglas MD-80 aircraft from 25 to 30 years. As a result of this change, Depreciation and amortization expense was reduced by approximately $27 million and $54 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005. Also, year over year net earnings for the second quarter 2005 increased $0.13 per diluted share and the net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2005 decreased $0.33 per share. 5.As discussed in Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements in the 2004 Form 10-K, the Company has a valuation allowance against the full amount of its net deferred tax asset. The Company's deferred tax asset valuation allowance increased $6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2005 to $839 million as of June 30, 2005. As a result of historical and current losses, the Company did not provide for a net tax benefit associated with its loss in the six month period ended June 30, 2005. 6.During the six-month period ended June 30, 2005, AMR Eagle borrowed approximately $287 million (net of discount), under various debt agreements, related to the purchase of regional jet aircraft. These debt agreements are secured by the related aircraft, have an effective interest rate of 5.0 percent, are guaranteed by AMR and mature over various periods of time through 2021. -5- AMR CORPORATION NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (Unaudited) As of June 30, 2005, AMR has issued guarantees covering approximately $928 million of American's tax-exempt bond debt and American's fully drawn $819 million credit facility. American has issued guarantees covering approximately $1.3 billion of AMR's unsecured debt. In addition, as of June 30, 2005, AMR and American have issued guarantees covering approximately $447 million of AMR Eagle's secured debt and AMR has issued guarantees covering an additional $2.9 billion of AMR Eagle's secured debt. 7.The following tables provide the components of net periodic benefit cost for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 (in millions): Pension Benefits Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, 2005 2004 2005 2004 Components of net periodic benefit cost Service cost $ 93 $ 90 $ 185 $ 179 Interest cost 153 141 305 283 Expected return on assets (164) (142) (329) (284) Amortization of: Prior service cost 4 3 8 7 Unrecognized net loss 13 15 26 29 Net periodic benefit cost $ 99 $ 107 $ 195 $ 214 Other Postretirement Benefits Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, 2005 2004 2005 2004 Components of net periodic benefit cost Service cost $ 19 $ 19 $ 37 $ 38 Interest cost 49 50 99 101 Expected return on assets (4) (3) (7) (6) Amortization of: Prior service cost (3) (2) (5) (5) Unrecognized net loss 1 2 1 4 Net periodic benefit cost $ 62 $ 66 $125 $132 The Company expects to contribute approximately $310 million to its defined benefit pension plans in 2005. This estimate reflects the provisions of the Pension Funding Equity Act of 2004, which deferred (to 2006 and later years) a portion of the minimum required contributions that would have been due for the 2004 and 2005 plan years. Of the $310 million the Company expects to contribute this year, the Company contributed $213 million during the six months ended June 30, 2005. -6- AMR CORPORATION NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (Unaudited) 8.As a result of the events of September 11, 2001, the depressed revenue environment, high fuel prices and the Company's restructuring activities, the Company has recorded a number of special charges during the last few years. The following table summarizes the changes since December 31, 2004 in the accruals for these charges (in millions): Aircraft Facility Employee Charges Exit Costs Charges Total Remaining accrual at December 31, 2004 $ 129 $ 26 $ 36 $ 191 Payments (10) (3) (31) (44) Remaining accrual at June 30, 2005 $ 119 $ 23 $ 5 $ 147 Cash outlays related to these accruals, as of June 30, 2005, for aircraft charges, facility exit costs and employee charges will occur through 2014, 2018 and 2005, respectively. 9.The Company includes changes in the fair value of certain derivative financial instruments that qualify for hedge accounting, changes in minimum pension liabilities and unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities in comprehensive income (loss). For the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, comprehensive income was $70 million and $6 million, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, comprehensive loss was $(47) million and $(177) million, respectively. The difference between net earnings (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 is due primarily to the accounting for the Company's derivative financial instruments. -7- AMR CORPORATION NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (Unaudited) 10.The following table sets forth the computations of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share (in millions, except per share data): Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, 2005 2004 2005 2004 Numerator: Net earnings (loss) - numerator for basic earnings (loss) per share $ 58 $ 6 $(104) $(160) Interest on senior convertible notes 6 - - - Net earnings (loss) adjusted for interest on convertible debt - numerator for diluted earnings (loss) per share $ 64 $ 6 $(104) $(160) Denominator: Denominator for basic earnings (loss) per share - weighted- average shares 163 160 162 160 Effect of dilutive securities: Senior convertible notes 32 - - - Employee options and shares 40 42 - - Assumed treasury shares purchased (19) (19) - - Dilutive potential common shares 53 23 - - Denominator for diluted earnings (loss) per share - adjusted weighted-average shares 216 183 162 160 Basic earnings (loss) per share $0.35 $0.04 $(0.64) $(1.00) Diluted earnings (loss) per share $0.30 $0.03 $(0.64) $(1.00) Approximately 28 million shares related to employee stock options were not added to the denominator for the three months ended June 30, 2005 because the options' exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares. Approximately 61 million shares issuable upon conversion of the Company's convertible notes, employee stock options and deferred stock were not added to the denominator for the three months ended June 30, 2004. The inclusion of such shares would be antidilutive. For the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, approximately 29 million shares related to employee stock options were not added to the denominator because the options' exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares. Additionally, approximately 51 million and 57 million shares issuable upon conversion of the Company's convertible notes, employee stock options and deferred stock were not added to the denominator because inclusion of such shares would be antidilutive. -8- Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Forward-Looking Information Statements in this report contain various forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which represent the Company's expectations or beliefs concerning future events. When used in this document and in documents incorporated herein by reference, the words "expects," "plans," "anticipates," "indicates," "believes," "forecast," "guidance," "outlook" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward- looking statements. Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, the Company's expectations concerning operations and financial conditions, including changes in capacity, revenues and costs, future financing plans and needs, overall economic conditions, plans and objectives for future operations, and the impact on the Company of its results of operations in recent years and the sufficiency of its financial resources to absorb that impact. Other forward-looking statements include statements which do not relate solely to historical facts, such as, without limitation, statements which discuss the possible future effects of current known trends or uncertainties or which indicate that the future effects of known trends or uncertainties cannot be predicted, guaranteed or assured. All forward-looking statements in this report are based upon information available to the Company on the date of this report. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of factors that could cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from the Company's expectations. The following factors, in addition to other possible factors not listed, could cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements: changes in economic, business and financial conditions; the Company's substantial indebtedness; continued high fuel prices and the availability of fuel; further increases in the price of fuel; the impact of events in Iraq; conflicts in the Middle East or elsewhere; the highly competitive business environment faced by the Company, characterized by increasing pricing transparency and competition from low cost carriers and financially distressed carriers; historically low fare levels and fare simplification initiatives (both of which could result in a further deterioration of the revenue environment); the ability of the Company to reduce its costs further without adversely affecting operational performance and service levels; uncertainties with respect to the Company's international operations; changes in the Company's business strategy; actions by U.S. or foreign government agencies; the possible occurrence of additional terrorist attacks; another outbreak of a disease (such as SARS) that affects travel behavior; uncertainties with respect to the Company's relationships with unionized and other employee work groups; the inability of the Company to satisfy existing financial or other covenants in certain of its credit agreements; the availability and terms of future financing; the ability of the Company to reach acceptable agreements with third parties; and increased insurance costs and potential reductions of available insurance coverage. Additional information concerning these and other factors is contained in the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission filings, including but not limited to the 2004 Form 10-K. Overview The Company recorded net earnings of $58 million during the second quarter of 2005 compared to $6 million in the same period last year. The Company's second quarter 2005 results were impacted by the continuing increase in fuel prices, offset by an improvement in unit revenues (passenger revenue per available seat mile) and a $27 million decrease in depreciation expense related to a change in the depreciable lives of certain aircraft types described in Note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Fuel price increases resulted in a year-over-year increase of 52.8 cents per gallon for the second quarter. This price increase negatively impacted fuel expense by $434 million during the quarter based on fuel consumption of 823 million gallons. Continuing high fuel prices, additional increases in the price of fuel, and/or disruptions in the supply of fuel would further adversely affect the Company's financial condition and its results of operations. -9- Mainline passenger unit revenues increased 7.0 percent for the second quarter due to a 3.8 point load factor increase and a 1.9 percent increase in passenger yield (passenger revenue per passenger mile) compared to the same period in 2004. Although load factor performance continues to show significant year-over-year improvement, passenger yield remains depressed by historical standards. The Company believes this depressed passenger yield is due in large part to a corresponding decline in the Company's pricing power. The Company's reduced pricing power is the product of several factors, including: greater cost sensitivity on the part of travelers (particularly business travelers); greater competition from low-cost carriers and from carriers that have recently reorganized or are reorganizing, including under the protection of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code; significant increases in overall capacity during 2004 and continuing into 2005 that exceeded economic growth; and, more recently, fare simplification efforts by certain carriers. The Company believes that its reduced pricing power will persist indefinitely and possibly permanently. The Company continues to work - under the basic tenets of the Turnaround Plan - with its unions and employees to identify and implement additional initiatives designed to increase efficiencies and revenues and reduce costs. During the second quarter, the Company's numerous network, product and other initiatives implemented during the past several years continued to benefit its financial results. In addition, its employees showed a remarkable ability to efficiently and courteously handle the record load factors during the quarter. The Company will continue to work with its labor unions and employees as its business partners on the need for continuous improvement under the Turnaround Plan. The Company's ability to become profitable and its ability to continue to fund its obligations on an ongoing basis will depend on a number of factors, some of which are largely beyond the Company's control. Some of the risk factors that affect the Company's business and financial results are referred to under "Forward-Looking Information" above and are discussed in the Risk Factors listed in Item 7 (on pages 35-38) in the 2004 Form 10-K. As the Company seeks to improve its financial condition, it must continue to take steps to generate additional revenues and to significantly reduce its costs. Although the Company has a number of initiatives underway to address its cost and revenue challenges, the adequacy and ultimate success of these initiatives is not known at this time and cannot be assured. It will be very difficult, absent continued restructuring of its operations, for the Company to continue to fund its obligations on an ongoing basis or to become profitable if the overall industry revenue environment does not improve and fuel prices remain at historically high levels for an extended period. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Significant Indebtedness and Future Financing The Company remains heavily indebted and has significant obligations (including substantial pension funding obligations) due in 2005 and thereafter, as described more fully under Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in the 2004 Form 10-K. The Company believes it should have sufficient liquidity to fund its operations for the foreseeable future, including repayment of debt and capital leases, capital expenditures and other contractual obligations. Nonetheless, to maintain sufficient liquidity as the Company continues to implement its restructuring and cost reduction initiatives, the Company will need access to additional funding. The Company's possible financing sources primarily include: (i) a limited amount of additional secured aircraft debt (a very large majority of the Company's owned aircraft, including virtually all of the Company's Section 1110-eligible aircraft, are encumbered) or sale-leaseback transactions involving owned aircraft; (ii) debt secured by new aircraft deliveries; (iii) debt secured by other assets; (iv) securitization of future operating receipts; (v) the sale or monetization of certain assets; (vi) unsecured debt; and (vii) equity and/or equity-like securities. However, the availability and level of these financing sources cannot be assured, particularly in light of the Company's and American's reduced credit ratings, high fuel prices, the historically weak fare environment and the financial difficulties being experienced in the airline industry. The inability of the Company to obtain additional funding would have a material negative impact on the ability of the Company to sustain its operations over the long-term. -10- The Company's substantial indebtedness could have important consequences. For example, it could: (i) limit the Company's ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and general corporate purposes, or adversely affect the terms on which such financing could be obtained; (ii) require the Company to dedicate a substantial portion of its cash flow from operations to payments on its indebtedness, thereby reducing the funds available for other purposes; (iii) make the Company more vulnerable to economic downturns; (iv) limit its ability to withstand competitive pressures and reduce its flexibility in responding to changing business and economic conditions; and (v) limit the Company's flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in its business and the industry in which it operates. Credit Facility Covenants American has a credit facility (the Credit Facility) consisting of a fully drawn $570 million senior secured revolving credit facility with a final maturity on June 17, 2009 and a fully drawn $248.5 million term loan facility with a final maturity on December 17, 2010. The Credit Facility contains a covenant (the Liquidity Covenant) requiring American to maintain, as defined, unrestricted cash, unencumbered short term investments and amounts available for drawing under committed revolving credit facilities of not less than $1.5 billion for each quarterly period through September 30, 2005 and $1.25 billion for each quarterly period thereafter. American was in compliance with the Liquidity Covenant as of June 30, 2005 and expects to be able to continue to comply with this covenant. In addition, the Credit Facility contains a covenant (the EBITDAR Covenant) requiring AMR to maintain a ratio of cash flow (defined as consolidated net income, before interest expense (less capitalized interest), income taxes, depreciation and amortization and rentals, adjusted for certain gains or losses and non-cash items) to fixed charges (comprising interest expense (less capitalized interest) and rentals). The required ratio was 0.85 to 1.00 for the four quarter period ending June 30, 2005 and will increase gradually to 1.50 to 1.00 for the four quarter period ending March 31, 2008 and for each four quarter period ending on each fiscal quarter thereafter. AMR was in compliance with the EBITDAR covenant as of June 30, 2005 and expects to be able to continue to comply with this covenant in the near term. Given the historically high price of fuel and the volatility of fuel prices and revenues, it is difficult to assess whether AMR and American will be able to continue to comply with the Liquidity Covenant and in particular the EBITDAR Covenant, and there are no assurances that AMR and American will be able to do so. Failure to comply with these covenants would result in a default under the Credit Facility which - - if the Company did not take steps to obtain a waiver of, or otherwise mitigate, the default - - could result in a default under a significant amount of the Company's other debt and lease obligations. Pension Funding Obligation The Company expects to contribute approximately $310 million to its defined benefit pension plans in 2005. This estimate reflects the provisions of the Pension Funding Equity Act of 2004. Due to uncertainties regarding significant assumptions involved in estimating future required contributions to its defined benefit pension plans, such as interest rate levels, the amount and timing of asset returns, and the impact of proposed legislation (discussed further below), the Company is not able to reasonably estimate its future required contributions beyond 2005. However, based on the current regulatory environment and market conditions, the Company expects that its 2006 minimum required contributions will exceed its 2005 expected contributions. Of the $310 million the Company expects to contribute to its defined benefit pension plans in 2005, the Company contributed $213 million during the first six months of 2005. Various defined benefit pension reform proposals are currently under consideration by the Government, which could have a significant - - positive or negative - - impact on the Company's future required pension contributions. The likely outcome of these proposals is currently unclear. -11- Cash Flow Activity At June 30, 2005, the Company had $3.4 billion in unrestricted cash and short-term investments, an increase of $470 million from December 31, 2004. Net cash provided by operating activities in the six-month period ended June 30, 2005 was $1.1 billion, an increase of $331 million over the same period in 2004. The increase was primarily the result of an increase in the Air traffic liability due to a modest improvement in the revenue environment, offset to a certain degree by the $213 million pension contribution. Capital expenditures for the first six months of 2005 were $484 million and included the acquisition of 18 Embraer 145 aircraft and the cost of improvements at New York's John F. Kennedy airport. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2005, AMR Eagle borrowed approximately $287 million (net of discount), under various debt agreements, related to the purchase of regional jet aircraft. These debt agreements are secured by the related aircraft, have an effective interest rate of 5.0 percent, are guaranteed by AMR and mature over various periods of time through 2021. On July 1, 2005, American completed the re-marketing of $198 million of DFW-FIC Series 2000A Unsecured Revenue Refunding Bonds in three subseries which mature May 1, 2029. Certain municipalities originally issued these special facility revenue bonds primarily to improve airport facilities that are leased by American and accounted for as operating leases. They were acquired by American in 2003 under a mandatory tender provision; thus, American received the proceeds from the remarketing in July and recorded the obligation in Other liabilities, deferred gains and deferred credits. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 Revenues The Company's revenues increased approximately $479 million, or 9.9 percent, to $5.3 billion in the second quarter of 2005 from the same period last year. American's passenger revenues increased by 9.5 percent, or $369 million, on a capacity (available seat mile) (ASM) increase of 2.3 percent. American's passenger load factor increased 3.8 points to 79.5 percent and passenger revenue yield per passenger mile increased by 1.9 percent to 11.91 cents. This resulted in an increase in American's passenger revenue per available seat mile (RASM) of 7.0 percent to 9.47 cents. Following is additional information regarding American's domestic and international RASM and capacity: Three Months Ended June 30, 2005 RASM Y-O-Y ASMs Y-O-Y (cents) Change (billions) Change Domestic 9.48 8.0% 29.4 (1.6)% International 9.47 5.1 15.6 10.7 Latin America 8.95 4.7 7.4 9.4 Europe 10.39 8.3 6.4 7.6 Pacific 8.36 (4.9) 1.8 30.5 Regional affiliates' passenger revenues, which are based on industry standard proration agreements for flights connecting to American flights, increased $56 million, or 11.1 percent, to $561 million as a result of increased capacity and load factors. Regional affiliates' traffic increased 24.8 percent to 2.3 billion revenue passenger miles (RPMs), while capacity increased 20.5 percent to 3.2 billion ASMs, resulting in a 2.5 point increase in the passenger load factor to 72.2 percent. Cargo revenues increased 1.3 percent, or $2 million, due to a 3.3 percent increase in cargo revenue yield per ton miles somewhat offset by a 1.6 percent decrease in cargo ton miles. -12- Operating Expenses The Company's total operating expenses increased 9.6 percent, or $446 million, to $5.1 billion in the second quarter of 2005 compared to the second quarter of 2004. American's mainline operating expenses per ASM in the second quarter of 2005 increased 5.6 percent compared to the second quarter of 2004 to 10.03 cents. These increases are due primarily to a 46.9 percent increase in American's price per gallon of fuel in the second quarter of 2005 relative to the second quarter of 2004. The Company's operating and financial results are significantly affected by the price of jet fuel. Continuing high fuel prices, additional increases in the price of fuel, or disruptions in the supply of fuel, would further adversely affect the Company's financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the Company recorded an adjustment of approximately $31 million in Special charges in the second quarter of 2004 (see explanation below).

(b)Depreciation and amortization expense decreased primarily due to a change in the estimate of the depreciable lives of the Company's Boeing 737-800, Boeing 757-200 and McDonnell Douglas MD-80 aircraft from 25 to 30 years, which decreased depreciation and amortization expense by approximately $27 million in the three months ended June 30, 2005. (c)Special charges for 2004 included the reversal of reserves previously established for (i) aircraft return costs of $20 million and (ii) employee severance of $11 million. Other Income (Expense) Other income (expense), historically a net expense, decreased $19 million due primarily to an increase in interest income of $15 million which resulted from increases in interest rates and short-term investments. Income Tax The Company did not record a net tax provision associated with its second quarter 2005 and 2004 earnings due to the Company providing a valuation allowance, as discussed in Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. -13- Operating Statistics The following table provides statistical information for American and Regional Affiliates for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004. Three Months Ended June 30, 2005 2004 American Airlines, Inc.

Of the operating aircraft listed above, 18 McDonnell Douglas MD-80s - - 11 owned, five operating leased and two capital leased - - were in temporary storage as of June 30, 2005. -14- Owned and leased aircraft not operated by the Company at June 30, 2005, included: American Airlines Aircraft AMR Eagle Aircraft Boeing 767-200 2 Embraer 145 10 Boeing 767-200 Extended Range 3 Saab 340B/340B Plus 60 Fokker 100 4 Total 70 McDonnell Douglas MD-80 7 Total 16 As part of the Company's fleet simplification initiative, American has agreed to sell certain aircraft. As of June 30, 2005, remaining owned aircraft to be delivered under these agreements include two Boeing 767- 200 Extended Range and two Boeing 767-200 aircraft. AMR Eagle has leased its 10 owned Embraer 145s that are not operated by AMR Eagle to Trans States Airlines, Inc. For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 Revenues The Company's revenues increased approximately $717 million, or 7.7 percent, to $10.1 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2005 from the same period last year. American's passenger revenues increased by 7.0 percent, or $533 million, on a capacity (ASM) increase of 1.5 percent. American's passenger load factor increased 4.0 points to 77.5 percent while passenger revenue yield per passenger mile remained constant at 11.90 cents. This resulted in an increase in American's passenger RASM of 5.4 percent to 9.22 cents. Following is additional information regarding American's domestic and international RASM and capacity: Six Months Ended June 30, 2005 RASM Y-O-Y ASMs Y-O-Y (cents) Change (billions) Change Domestic 9.18 6.0% 57.7 (2.9)% International 9.31 4.2 30.2 11.0 Latin America 9.20 2.4 15.4 11.1 Europe 9.77 8.9 11.5 7.0 Pacific 8.23 (4.2) 3.3 27.8 Regional affiliates' passenger revenues, which are based on industry standard proration agreements for flights connecting to American flights, increased $87 million, or 9.4 percent, to $1.0 billion as a result of increased capacity and load factors. Regional affiliates' traffic increased 23.7 percent to 4.2 billion RPMs, while capacity increased 19.7 percent to 6.1 billion ASMs, resulting in a 2.3 point increase in the passenger load factor to 68.6 percent. Cargo revenues increased 1.7 percent, or $5 million, due to a 0.9 percent increase in cargo ton miles in addition to a 0.9 percent increase in cargo revenue yield per ton mile. -15- Operating Expenses The Company's total operating expenses increased 7.7 percent, or $703 million, to $9.8 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to the same period in 2004. American's mainline operating expenses per ASM in the six months ended June 30, 2005 increased 4.5 percent compared to the same period in 2004 to 9.92 cents. These increases are due primarily to a 41.4 percent increase in American's price per gallon of fuel in the first half of 2005 relative to the same period in 2004, including the impact of a $55 million fuel excise tax refund received in March 2005. (in millions) Six Months Ended Change Percentage Operating Expenses June 30, 2005 from 2004 Change Wages, salaries and benefits $ 3,315 $ (28) (0.8)% Aircraft fuel 2,448 723 41.9 (a) Other rentals and landing fees 619 13 2.1 Depreciation and amortization 576 (70) (10.8) (b) Commissions, booking fees and credit card expense 557 (18) (3.1) Maintenance, materials and repairs 492 16 3.4 Aircraft rentals 295 (11) (3.6) Food service 252 (24) (8.7) Other operating expenses 1,253 71 6.0 Special charges - 31 NM (c) Total operating expenses $ 9,807 $ 703 7.7% (a)Aircraft fuel expense increased primarily due to a 41.4 percent increase in American's price per gallon of fuel (including the benefit of a $55 million fuel excise tax refund received in March 2005 and the impact of fuel hedging) offset by a 1.7 percent decrease in American's fuel consumption. (b)Depreciation and amortization expense decreased primarily due to a change in the estimate of the depreciable lives of the Company's Boeing 737-800, Boeing 757-200 and McDonnell Douglas MD-80 aircraft from 25 to 30 years, which decreased depreciation and amortization expense by approximately $54 million in the six months ended June 30, 2005. (c)Special charges for 2004 included the reversal of reserves previously established for (i) aircraft return costs of $20 million and (ii) employee severance of $11 million. Other Income (Expense) Other income (expense), historically a net expense, decreased $42 million due primarily to the following: Interest income increased $36 million due primarily to a $14 million interest refund related to the fuel excise tax refund discussed above and increases in interest rates and short-term investments. Interest expense increased $28 million due primarily to increases in variable interest rates. Miscellaneous- net decreased $25 million, due primarily to the accrual during the first quarter of 2004 of a $23 million award rendered by an independent arbitrator and relating to a grievance filed by the Allied Pilots Association. Income Tax The Company did not record a net tax benefit associated with its losses for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 due to the Company providing a valuation allowance, as discussed in Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. -16- Operating Statistics The following table provides statistical information for American and Regional Affiliates for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004. Six Months Ended June 30, 2005 2004 American Airlines, Inc. Mainline Jet Operations Revenue passenger miles (millions) 68,123 63,613 Available seat miles (millions) 87,872 86,594 Cargo ton miles (millions) 1,098 1,088 Passenger load factor 77.5% 73.5% Passenger revenue yield per passenger mile (cents) 11.90 11.90 Passenger revenue per available seat mile (cents) 9.22 8.75 Cargo revenue yield per ton mile (cents) 28.08 27.83 Operating expenses per available seat mile, excluding Regional Affiliates (cents) (*) 9.92 9.49 Fuel consumption (gallons, in millions) (**) 1,478 1,503 Fuel price per gallon (cents) 150.2 106.2 Regional Affiliates Revenue passenger miles (millions) 4,202 3,396 Available seat miles (millions) 6,126 5,118 Passenger load factor 68.6% 66.3% (*) Excludes $1.2 billion and $1.0 billion of expense incurred related to Regional Affiliates in 2005 and 2004, respectively. (**) Includes the benefit of the 3.7 cents per gallon impact of a $55 million fuel excise tax refund in 2005. Outlook The Company currently expects third quarter 2005 mainline unit costs to be approximately 10.37 cents and full year 2005 mainline unit costs to be approximately 10.20 cents, including the impact of the $55 million fuel excise tax refund received in March 2005. Capacity for American's mainline jet operations is expected to increase about 2.7 percent in the third quarter of 2005 compared to the third quarter of 2004 and about 2.4 percent for the full year 2005 compared to 2004. -17- Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk Except as discussed below, there have been no material changes in market risk from the information provided in Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk of the Company's 2004 Form 10-K. The risk inherent in the Company's fuel related market risk sensitive instruments and positions is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in the price of fuel. The sensitivity analyses presented do not consider the effects that such adverse changes may have on overall economic activity, nor do they consider additional actions management may take to mitigate the Company's exposure to such changes. Therefore, actual results may differ. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. Aircraft Fuel The Company's earnings are affected by changes in the price and availability of aircraft fuel. In order to provide a measure of control over price and supply, the Company trades and ships fuel and maintains fuel storage facilities to support its flight operations. The Company also manages the price risk of fuel costs primarily by using jet fuel, heating oil, and crude oil hedging contracts. Market risk is estimated as a hypothetical 10 percent increase in the June 30, 2005 cost per gallon of fuel. Based on projected 2005 and 2006 fuel usage through June 30, 2006, such an increase would result in an increase to aircraft fuel expense of approximately $514 million in the twelve months ended June 30, 2006, inclusive of the impact of fuel hedge instruments outstanding at June 30, 2005, and assumes the Company's fuel hedging program remains effective under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". Comparatively, based on projected 2005 fuel usage, such an increase would have resulted in an increase to aircraft fuel expense of approximately $377 million in the twelve months ended December 31, 2005, inclusive of the impact of fuel hedge instruments outstanding at December 31, 2004. The change in market risk is primarily due to the increase in fuel prices. As of June 30, 2005, the Company had hedged an insignificant percentage of its estimated 2005, 2006 and 2007 fuel requirements with option contracts. Item 4. Controls and Procedures The term "disclosure controls and procedures" is defined in Rules 13a- 15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act. This term refers to the controls and procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission. An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2005. Based on that evaluation, the Company's management, including the CEO and CFO, concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2005. During the quarter ending on June 30, 2005, there was no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting. -18- PART II: OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceedings On July 26, 1999, a class action lawsuit was filed, and in November 1999 an amended complaint was filed, against AMR Corporation, American Airlines, Inc., AMR Eagle Holding Corporation, Airlines Reporting Corporation, and the Sabre Group Holdings, Inc. in the United States District Court for the Central District of California, Western Division (Westways World Travel, Inc. v. AMR Corp., et al.). The lawsuit alleges that requiring travel agencies to pay debit memos to American for violations of American's fare rules (by customers of the agencies): (1) breaches the Agent Reporting Agreement between American and AMR Eagle and the plaintiffs; (2) constitutes unjust enrichment; and (3) violates the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act of 1970 (RICO). On July 9, 2003, the court certified a class that included all travel agencies who have been or will be required to pay money to American for debit memos for fare rules violations from July 26, 1995 to the present. On February 24, 2005, the court decertified the class. The remaining two plaintiffs seek to enjoin American from enforcing the pricing rules in question and to recover the amounts paid for debit memos, plus treble damages, attorneys' fees, and costs. The Company is vigorously defending the lawsuit. Although the Company believes that the litigation is without merit, a final adverse court decision could impose restrictions on the Company's relationships with travel agencies, which could have an adverse impact on the Company. Between April 3, 2003 and June 5, 2003, three lawsuits were filed by travel agents some of whom opted out of a prior class action (now dismissed) to pursue their claims individually against American Airlines, Inc., other airline defendants, and in one case against certain airline defendants and Orbitz LLC. (Tam Travel et. al., v. Delta Air Lines et. al., in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California - San Francisco (51 individual agencies), Paula Fausky d/b/a Timeless Travel v. American Airlines, et. al, in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio Eastern Division (29 agencies) and Swope Travel et al. v. Orbitz et. al. in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas Beaumont Division (6 agencies)). Collectively, these lawsuits seek damages and injunctive relief alleging that the certain airline defendants and Orbitz LLC: (i) conspired to prevent travel agents from acting as effective competitors in the distribution of airline tickets to passengers in violation of Section 1 of the Sherman Act; (ii) conspired to monopolize the distribution of common carrier air travel between airports in the United States in violation of Section 2 of the Sherman Act; and that (iii) between 1995 and the present, the airline defendants conspired to reduce commissions paid to U.S.-based travel agents in violation of Section 1 of the Sherman Act. These cases have been consolidated in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio Eastern Division. American is vigorously defending these lawsuits. A final adverse court decision awarding substantial money damages or placing restrictions on the Company's distribution practices would have an adverse impact on the Company. On August 19, 2002, a class action lawsuit seeking monetary damages was filed, and on May 7, 2003, an amended complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (Power Travel International, Inc. v. American Airlines, Inc., et al.) against American, Continental Airlines, Delta Air Lines, United Airlines, and Northwest Airlines, alleging that American and the other defendants breached their contracts with the agency and were unjustly enriched when these carriers at various times reduced their base commissions to zero. The as yet uncertified class includes all travel agencies accredited by the Airlines Reporting Corporation "whose base commissions on airline tickets were unilaterally reduced to zero by" the defendants. The case is stayed as to United Airlines, since it filed for bankruptcy. American is vigorously defending the lawsuit. Although the Company believes that the litigation is without merit, a final adverse court decision awarding substantial money damages or forcing the Company to pay agency commissions would have an adverse impact on the Company. -19- Miami-Dade County (the County) is currently investigating and remediating various environmental conditions at the Miami International Airport (MIA) and funding the remediation costs through landing fees and various cost recovery methods. American and AMR Eagle have been named as potentially responsible parties (PRPs) for the contamination at MIA. During the second quarter of 2001, the County filed a lawsuit against 17 defendants, including American Airlines, Inc., in an attempt to recover its past and future cleanup costs (Miami-Dade County, Florida v. Advance Cargo Services, Inc., et al. in the Florida Circuit Court). The Company is vigorously defending the lawsuit. In addition to the 17 defendants named in the lawsuit, 243 other agencies and companies were also named as PRPs and contributors to the contamination. The case is currently stayed while the parties pursue an alternative dispute resolution process. The County has proposed draft allocation models for remedial costs for the Terminal and Tank Farm areas of MIA. While it is anticipated that American and AMR Eagle will be allocated equitable shares of remedial costs, the Company does not expect the allocated amounts to have a material adverse effect on the Company. Four cases (each being a purported class action) have been filed against American arising from the disclosure of passenger name records by a vendor of American. The cases are: Kimmell v. AMR, et al. (U. S. District Court, Texas), Baldwin v. AMR, et al. (U. S. District Court, Texas), Rosenberg v. AMR, et al. (U. S. District Court, New York) and Anapolsky v. AMR, et al. (U.S. District Court, New York). The Kimmell suit was filed in April 2004. The Baldwin and Rosenberg cases were filed in May 2004. The Anapolsky suit was filed in September 2004. The suits allege various causes of action, including but not limited to, violations of the Electronic Communications Privacy Act, negligent misrepresentation, breach of contract and violation of alleged common law rights of privacy. In each case plaintiffs seek statutory damages of $1000 per passenger, plus additional unspecified monetary damages. The Court dismissed the cases but allowed leave to amend, and the Kimmell and Rosenberg cases have been refiled. The Company is vigorously defending these suits and believes the suits are without merit. However, a final adverse court decision awarding a maximum amount of statutory damages would have an adverse impact on the Company. American is defending three lawsuits, filed as class actions but not certified as such, arising from allegedly improper failure to refund certain governmental taxes and fees collected by the Company upon the sale of nonrefundable tickets when such tickets are not used for travel. The suits are: Coleman v. American Airlines, Inc., No. 101106, filed December 31, 2002, pending (on appeal) before the Supreme Court of Oklahoma. The Coleman Plaintiffs seek actual damages (not specified) and interest. Hayes v. American Airlines, Inc., No. 04-3231, pending in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, filed July 2, 2004. The Hayes Plaintiffs seek unspecified damages, declaratory judgment, costs, attorneys' fees, and interest. Harrington v. Delta Air Lines, Inc., et. al., No. 04- 12558, pending in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts, filed November 4, 2004. The Harrington plaintiffs seek unspecified actual damages (trebled), declaratory judgment, injunctive relief, costs, and attorneys' fees. The suits assert various causes of action, including breach of contract, conversion, and unjust enrichment. The Company is vigorously defending the suits and believes them to be without merit. However, a final adverse court decision requiring the Company to refund collected taxes and/or fees could have an adverse impact on the Company. On March 11, 2004, a patent infringement lawsuit was filed against AMR Corporation, American Airlines, Inc., AMR Eagle Holding Corporation, and American Eagle Airlines, Inc. in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas (IAP Intermodal, L.L.C. v. AMR Corp., et al.). The case was consolidated with eight similar lawsuits filed against a number of other unaffiliated airlines, including Continental, Northwest, British Airways, Air France, Pinnacle Airlines, Korean Air and Singapore Airlines (as well as various regional affiliates of the foregoing). The plaintiff alleges that the airline defendants infringe three patents, each of which relates to a system of scheduling vehicles based on freight and passenger transportation requests received from remote computer terminals. The plaintiff is seeking past and future royalties of over $30 billion dollars, injunctive relief, costs and attorneys' fees. Although the Company believes that the plaintiff's claims are without merit and is vigorously defending the lawsuit, a final adverse court decision awarding substantial money damages or placing material restrictions on existing scheduling practices would have an adverse impact on the Company. -20- On July 12, 2004, a consolidated class action complaint, that was subsequently amended on November 30, 2004, was filed against American Airlines, Inc. and the Association of Professional Flight Attendants (APFA), the Union which represents the Company's flight attendants (Ann M. Marcoux, et al., v. American Airlines Inc., et al. in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York). While a class has not yet been certified, the lawsuit seeks on behalf of all of American's flight attendants or various subclasses to set aside, and to obtain damages allegedly resulting from, the April 2003 Collective Bargaining Agreement referred to as the Restructuring Participation Agreement (RPA). The RPA was one of three labor agreements the Company successfully reached with its unions in order to avoid filing for bankruptcy in 2003. In a related case (Sherry Cooper, et al. v. TWA Airlines, LLC, et al., also in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York), the court denied a preliminary injunction against implementation of the RPA on June 30, 2003. The Marcoux suit alleges various claims against the Union and American relating to the RPA and the ratification vote on the RPA by individual Union members, including: violation of the Labor Management Reporting and Disclosure Act (LMRDA) and the APFA's Constitution and By-laws, violation by the Union of its duty of fair representation to its members, violation by the Company of provisions of the Railway Labor Act through improper coercion of flight attendants into voting or changing their vote for ratification, and violations of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act of 1970 (RICO). Although the Company believes the case against it is without merit and both the Company and the Union are vigorously defending the lawsuit, a final adverse court decision invalidating the RPA and awarding substantial money damages would have an adverse impact on the Company. -21- Item 4.

Other Information The 1999 Stock Appreciation Rights Plan for Directors grants annually to each outside Director 1,185 stock appreciation rights (SARs)(the "SAR Plan"). This SARs grant is a component of an outside Director's compensation. As noted in the Company's 2005 proxy statement (page 13, the "Proxy Statement"), the American Jobs Creation Act has called into doubt the viability of the SAR Plan. The Board has determined to terminate the SAR Plan. In lieu of the annual grant of 1,185 SARs, Directors will receive annually an additional grant of units under the 2004 Directors Unit Incentive Plan (the "DUIP"). The DUIP, as amended, is attached as Exhibit 10.5 to this Form 10-Q. An attachment to the DUIP notes the 2005 awards. As discussed in the Proxy Statement, the Compensation Committee of the Board annually conducts a comprehensive review of compensation for the officers and other key employees. At its July meeting the Compensation Committee approved the following compensation initiatives (effective July 25, 2005): - The form of stock option agreement under the 1998 Long Term Incentive Plan, as amended.
