01—Abstract
Summary
Summary of the 8-K/A filed April 25, 2025. Cited figures are marked; the original filing is the authoritative source.
Delta Air Lines, Inc. filed this Form 8-K/A-style amendment on April 25, 2025 under Item 5.02 (Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers).
The filing amends two prior Current Reports on Form 8-K, filed December 13, 2024 and January 15, 2025, which reported the election of Christophe Beck and Judith McKenna to Delta's Board of Directors. Those earlier filings were made before the Board had determined committee assignments for the two new directors. The amendment states that, as of April 23, 2025, the Board of Directors appointed both Mr. Beck and Ms. McKenna to serve on the Board's Audit Committee and Safety & Security Committee.
The filing is administrative in nature and does not report any financial results, guidance, transactions, or compensation arrangements. For investors, the key takeaway is governance-related: Delta's Board has completed committee assignments for two recently elected directors, placing both on the Audit Committee, which oversees financial reporting and controls, and on the Safety & Security Committee.
The filing is signed by Peter W. Carter, Executive Vice President – Chief External Affairs Officer.
