When does United Airlines Holdings, Inc. (UAL) report earnings? After the close in 12 of its last 12 reports
Of its last 12 earnings announcements: 12 after the close. Each one comes from the 8-K with item 2.02 that United Airlines filed with the SEC, paired with the 10-Q or 10-K for that same quarter: 65 quarters since Jul 20, 2010, and every row links to its filing.
Next date: UAL does not appear in the announced-earnings calendar this site covers (Oct 21, 2026 to Nov 24, 2026). When the company announces the day it will show up here; until then there is no date, and an estimate of ours would not be one.
The latest, still without a report
- Oct 20, 2026, Tuesday at 20:00 New York time (after the close). see the 8-K
It is this company's most recent 8-K with item 2.02 and it does not yet have its 10-Q or 10-K behind it, so there is no way to say which quarter it belongs to: it does not enter the figures above or the table, and for the same reason it might not be an earnings announcement at all (some companies use this same item for production figures or monthly sales).
The last 20 quarters, one by one
"Lead": trading sessions between the announcement and the full quarterly report to the SEC (10-Q, or 10-K at fiscal year end). For United Airlines, a median of 1 session over the last 12 quarters.

Where each number comes from
From the 8-K with item 2.02 ("Results of Operations and Financial Condition") that United Airlines filed on EDGAR, the SEC's public database; only those with their 10-Q or 10-K behind them count, so other 8-Ks with the same item (production figures, monthly sales) stay out. The time is converted to New York time using this specific company's stamp convention (its EDGAR stamp arrives in UTC), and it is not assumed: it is derived from the hours in which EDGAR accepts filings. In 1 of this company's 65 quarters the date comes from the EDGAR acceptance day rather than the 8-K cover box, and it is flagged with an asterisk in the table.
What this data does not know
- The exact time of the press release: the 8-K reaches EDGAR minutes or hours later, so United Airlines's median 20:00 is an upper bound. The session says which one the news landed in, not what minute it was said.
- Nothing before Jul 20, 2010: it is United Airlines's oldest quarter with announcement and report paired in the file.
- What will happen. Every date on the page already happened. United Airlines reporting after the close 42 quarters in a row does not say the next one will be the same.
- United Airlines's identity is its SEC CIK (0000100517), not its symbol: symbols get recycled and renamed.

What is behind these dates
The concepts on this page, explained from scratch in the Academy. Free, no account.
- Guessing next quarter's earnings gives no edgeWhy knowing a quarter's earnings in advance is not enough to make money: what moves the price is the gap against what was expected.
- Supply, demand and price: why it rises and falls constantlyWhat happens to the price on announcement day, and why excellent results can leave the stock falling.
- The three financial statements of a companyWhat is inside the 10-Q and the 10-K whose lag behind the announcement this page measures.
- Point-in-time data and look-ahead biasWhy the date a figure became public matters as much as the figure, which is exactly the distinction behind the two date columns above.
