Southwest Airlines is dealing with several challenges and opportunities. There's a
$100 million lawsuit over paychecks, while the company's stock, under ticker LUV, is potentially outpacing its transportation peers.
Everence Capital Management Inc. has reduced its stake in the airline. LUV is the target of activist hedge funds and is unveiling a transformational plan titled '
Southwest. Even Better'. LUV's Q3 2024 earnings results are expected next week, as it faces investor pressure. It has unveiled enhanced customer experience strategies and named new board chair,
Rakesh Gangwal. The airline has made appointments of six independent directors and other strategic leadership moves. Additionally, flight schedules are extended into early June 2025. However, Southwest's profit has fallen 46%, and there are mixed fundamentals for the stock. Specifically, Southwest Airlines warns of 'tough decisions' needed to restore profits, while also announcing new sales promotions and clearing regulator safety tests.
