"We are pleased to report second quarter 2019 net income of $741 million,” said Gary Kelly, CEO of Southwest Airlines. “Our financial and operational performance was remarkably strong considering the impact of the grounding of the Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft (MAX), which reduced operating income an estimated $175 million in second quarter, alone.”

Southwest Airlines shares were trading down 5% at $51.98 in Thursday’s pre-market session. The stock has a 52-week high of $64.02 and a 52-week low of $44.28.
