Delta Air Lines (NYSE: DAL ) cranked up cargo revenue in the fourth quarter to $204 million, a 10% gain over the same period a year ago and a big improvement from the prior two quarters. Overall, the company met Wall Street expectations with an adjusted pretax loss of $2.1 billion on $4 billion in revenue. The pretax loss of $2.53 per share came in slightly higher than the consensus among analysts of $2.50 and revenue was also above the estimate of $3.6 billion. In the third quarter, Delta’s pretax loss was $2.6 billion. Fourth-quarter revenue was 69% below the 2019 period and the carrier operated at 38% of its seat capacity. Delta projects it will stop burning cash reserves in the spring, but how it gets there remains unclear. It reported an average cash burn of $12 million per day in the fourth quarter and shows no improvement in that area for the first quarter of 2021 ($10 million to $15 million daily). The burn rate is about 90% better, however, than it was at the start of the pandemic in March.
