American Airlines (AAL) reported record second-quarter 2026 revenue of $16.7 billion and adjusted earnings of $0.15 per share, but a sharp jump in fuel costs pressured profits. The carrier said fuel expense surged 83% year over year to more than $2.2 billion, contributing to a steep drop in net income. American also slashed its third-quarter and full-year guidance, narrowing its 2026 adjusted EPS range to a loss of $0.65 to a profit of $0.65. Shares fell 8.4% after the release as investors focused on cost pressures outweighing near-term demand strength.
