Skywest Inc: what insiders have been doing
Skywest Inc, founded in 2005, is a Industrials company based in St. George, United States. Its directors and officers file their transactions with SEC (Form 4). The last twelve months, up to 18 October 2026, brought 29 filings signed by 12 insiders.
All open-market trades in the period are sales: 11 sales worth €13.5M, by 5 insiders, with no purchase on record. Childs Russell A filed the largest sale, €3.6M, on 30 July 2026, which represents 0.10% of the company's market value.
The median gap between a trade and its publication by SEC (Form 4) is 2 days. US insiders must file a Form 4 within two business days of a trade. Sales are harder to read than purchases, since they often meet personal needs such as tax or diversification.
With 29 filings in twelve months, the company is more active than the median of 19 filings across the 5,814 companies we follow on the same exchange. Since 2016, the database holds 2 purchases and 37 sales by insiders of the company. For the fiscal year to 31 December 2025, the annual 10-K puts revenue at 4.06 bn USD and net income at 428.3 m USD.

About Skywest Inc
SkyWest, Inc. (ticker: SKYW) is a U.S.-listed transport company traded on NASDAQ in the United States. For French-speaking investors, it should be viewed primarily as a regional aviation platform and an outsourced capacity provider to major U.S. airlines rather than a classic consumer-facing airline. The group operates under capacity purchase agreements and flies regional routes on behalf of large network carriers, making it an important link in the North American air-transport value chain. ([inc.skywest.com](https://inc.skywest.com/corporate-information/who-we-are/?utm_source=openai))
Founded in 1972, SkyWest operated its first flight on June 19, 1972. Its corporate headquarters are in St. George, Utah, in the United States. The company is the holding entity for SkyWest Airlines, SkyWest Charter (SWC), and SkyWest Leasing, giving it a broader structure than a pure airline operator. This mix combines regional flying, charter services, and an aircraft-leasing component, which can help diversify earnings drivers and support capital allocation flexibility over time.

Operationally, SkyWest Airlines partners with United Airlines, Delta Air Lines, American Airlines, and Alaska Airlines. The company reported carrying more than 46 million passengers in 2025, serving 255 cities, and operating a fleet of 487 aircraft at year-end 2025, mainly CRJ and Embraer E175 aircraft. For investors, that scale matters: it underlines SkyWest’s competitive position as one of the most relevant regional operators in the U.S., with meaningful network importance and a large installed operating base. ([inc.skywest.com](https://inc.skywest.com/corporate-information/who-we-are/?utm_source=openai))
SkyWest’s business model is built on operational reliability, fleet availability, and service quality for airline partners. Its geographic footprint is wide, with crew domiciles, maintenance bases, and line stations across the U.S., plus service to select Canadian provinces and Mexican cities. This footprint strengthens its strategic role for major U.S. carriers, especially where regional connectivity feeds major hub traffic and supports schedule density. ([inc.skywest.com](https://inc.skywest.com/corporate-information/who-we-are/?utm_source=openai))
Recent developments have been constructive. In January 2026, SkyWest reported full-year 2025 net income of $428 million, up year over year, and announced multi-year contract extensions with United Airlines and Delta Air Lines for E175 aircraft. The company also disclosed additional E175 deliveries in late 2025 and a share repurchase authorization in 2025. Taken together, these updates point to improving earnings momentum, solid contract visibility, and a shareholder-return mindset, all of which are important for assessing an airline-related name with cyclical exposure.
