Not picking a fight here, but Inc is profitable and your subsidiary is not. Taking cuts isn't "for nothing".

Up until this point the only answer I've heard is "we were profitable until SkyWest bought us and agreed to a crap CPA with UA". Maybe so. But this doesn't change the fact the business is loosing money! I guess they could renegotiate with UA. Or you could make a few efficiency changes (not pay cuts) and live to fight to the next CPA.
