In 2024 and 2023, we
recognized as special charges the full amount of estimated property
damage to Sunseeker Resort due to weather and other insured events
less the amount of recognized insurance recoveries through the end
of the applicable period (sometimes referred to as the Sunseeker
special charges). In 2024, we also recognized special charges for
aircraft accelerated depreciation related to our revised fleet plan
and for a ratification bonus paid to flight attendants in
connection with our new collective bargaining agreement. The
accelerated depreciation and ratification bonus are sometimes
referred to as the airline special charges. We sometimes refer to
all special charges as "specials" in this earnings
release.

"We finished the quarter with diluted earnings per share,
excluding special charges, of $1.77,"
stated Maurice J. Gallagher, Jr.,
chairman and CEO of Allegiant Travel Company. "Peak period demand
trends across our airline business remained strong during the
quarter and notably, ancillary outperformed. We achieved
$75.34 per passenger in total
ancillary, a five percent increase over the prior year, driven by
strength in seats, bags and cobrand. As we head into the third
quarter, we expect a modest growth profile of just over one percent
year-over-year with that growth coming in peak July and early
August. Based on seasonal norms and consistent with how our model
has historically operated, off-peak September capacity represents
roughly half the capacity flown in July.
"As others have noted, this summer experienced increased
capacity across the industry. While this has affected yields
overall, our unique network structure has provided us with a layer
of insulation. As I have mentioned before, we operate in our own
swim lane with 75 percent of our routes facing no nonstop, direct
competition. This number has remained virtually unchanged for over
a decade and our expected growth profile maintains this
non-competitive landscape."
"I want to thank our team members for another quarter of strong
operational performance, yielding a near-industry leading
controllable completion of 99.7 percent for the quarter," stated
Gregory Anderson, president and
incoming CEO of Allegiant Travel Company. "Financially, I am
pleased with the progress we made during the second quarter, with
the airline generating an adjusted operating margin of 10.3 percent
for the quarter. Peak June utilization increased six percent from
the prior year.
"We have two weeks remaining in our peak-summer period, and our
operational performance has been terrific, with July utilization up
roughly five percent over the prior year. Like many in the
industry, we were challenged with a vendor technology outage that
temporarily paused our flying. Full operations resumed less than 12
hours later. I am incredibly grateful with how Team Allegiant came
together and quickly responded, ensuring the successful
continuation of hundreds of flights on one of our highest scheduled
flying days in our history. Since then we have run a 99.4 percent
controllable completion factor – one of the best among impacted
airlines. We expect the total financial impact from the outage will
be approximately $15 million.
"Looking forward to 2025, we are on track to both return to
pre-pandemic utilization levels and reduce operating inefficiencies
related to Boeing's delivery delays. We now expect to receive our
first aircraft in September. Near-term increases in utilization are
expected to be accomplished with roughly the same number of
aircraft and same size infrastructure, which should have the dual
benefit of increased revenues and lower unit costs. We also look
forward to a full-year benefit from our recently installed
Navitaire reservation system. We expect our enhanced Navitaire
improvements to be a significant boost to the bottom line in
2025.
"Regarding Sunseeker, we continue to believe this one-of-a-kind
resort holds greater value than currently reflected. To realize its
full potential, however, we have engaged Prospect Hotel Advisors to
conduct a strategic review of the property. Additionally, we now
expect to receive up to $10 million
of business interruption insurance for the full year 2024 due to
delays in opening the resort. This will offset our expected
full-year EBITDA loss of $25 million,
reducing our cash loss estimate to approximately $15 million.
"The combination of increased utilization during our peak demand
periods, the addition of our Boeing aircraft, the optimization of
Navitaire and the benefits from Prospect Advisors should position
us for a much-improved 2025 and beyond."

Guidance, subject to revision
Certain forward-looking financial information in the
following tables is not presented in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP"). Non-GAAP
financial figures may be useful to stakeholders, but should not be
considered a substitute for GAAP figures. In reliance on the
'unreasonable efforts' exception in Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of SEC
Regulation S-K, a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP
financial measure is not provided for airline-only loss per share,
excluding special charges, consolidated loss per share, excluding
special charges, and Sunseeker EBITDA, excluding special charges.
The Company is not able to reconcile these Non-GAAP financial
figures without unreasonable effort because the special charge
adjustments will not be known until the end of the indicated future
periods and any range of projected values would be too broad to be
meaningful. As a result, this information would not be significant
to investors.

Appendix A
Non-GAAP
Presentation
Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2024
(Unaudited)
Airline operating expense, airline income before income taxes,
airline net income, and airline diluted earnings per share all
eliminate the effects of non-airline activity as such activity is
not reflective of airline operating performance. We also present
these airline-only metrics excluding special charges related to
aircraft accelerated depreciation on early retirement of certain
airframes and a ratification bonus for the new collective
bargaining agreement for our flight attendants. Management believes
the exclusion of these special charges enhances comparability of
financial information between periods. Airline earnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("Airline EBITDA")
eliminates the effects of non-airline operating activity and other
items. As such, all of these are non-GAAP financial measures. We
believe the presentation of these measures is relevant and useful
for investors because it allows them to better gauge the
performance of the airline and to compare our results to other
airlines.
We also present both operating expense and CASM excluding
aircraft fuel expense and excluding the ratification bonus to our
flight attendants. Fuel price volatility impacts the comparability
of year over year financial performance as does the one-time
payment of the ratification bonus. We believe the adjustments for
fuel expense and ratification bonus allow investors to better
understand our non-fuel costs and related performance.
We present consolidated operating income, EBITDA, and diluted
earnings per share excluding Sunseeker special charges, net of
recoveries, and airline special charges, to exclude the impact of
losses and insurance recoveries incurred primarily as the result of
hurricanes and other insured events at Sunseeker and to exclude
aircraft accelerated depreciation on early retirements of certain
airframes and the ratification bonus to our flight attendants.
Management believes these measures enhance comparability of
financial information between periods.
Consolidated EBITDA, Consolidated EBITDA excluding special
charges, Airline EBITDA excluding special charges, estimated
airline only and consolidated earnings (loss) per share excluding
special charges, and Sunseeker estimated EBITDA, as presented in
this press release, are supplemental measures of our performance
that are not required by, or presented in accordance with,
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). These are not
measurements of our financial performance under GAAP and should not
be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income or
any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or
as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a
measure of our liquidity.
We define "EBITDA" as earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization. We also adjust EBITDA within this
release to exclude non-airline activity and special charges. We
caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with this
definition may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by
other issuers, because not all issuers and analysts calculate
EBITDA in the same manner.
We use EBITDA and Airline EBITDA to evaluate our operating
performance and liquidity, and these are among the primary measures
used by management for planning and forecasting of future periods.
We believe these presentations of EBITDA are relevant and useful
for investors because they allow investors to view results in a
manner similar to the method used by management and make it easier
to compare our results with other companies that have different
financing and capital structures. EBITDA has important limitations
as an analytical tool. These limitations include the following:
- EBITDA does not reflect our capital expenditures, future
requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments to
purchase capital equipment;
- EBITDA does not reflect interest expense or the cash
requirements necessary to service principal or interest payments on
our debt;
- although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges,
the assets that we currently depreciate and amortize will likely
have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA does not reflect the
cash required to fund such replacements; and
- other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA
differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative
measure.
Presented below is a quantitative reconciliation of these
adjusted numbers to the most directly comparable GAAP financial
performance measure.
The SEC has adopted rules (Regulation G) regulating the use of
non-GAAP financial measures. Because of our use of non-GAAP
financial measures in this press release to supplement our
consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis,
Regulation G requires us to include in this press release a
presentation of the most directly comparable GAAP measure, which is
operating revenue, operating expenses, operating income, income
before income taxes, net income, and net income per share and a
reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP
measure. Our utilization of non-GAAP measurements is not meant to
be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating
expenses, income before income taxes, net income, earnings per
share, or other measures of financial performance prepared in
accordance with GAAP. Our use of these non-GAAP measures may not be
comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies
in the airline and travel industry. The reconciliation of each of
these measures to the most comparable GAAP measure for the periods
is indicated below.

In 2024 and 2023, we
recognized as special charges the full amount of estimated property
damage to Sunseeker Resort due to weather and other insured events
less the amount of recognized insurance recoveries through the end
of the applicable period (sometimes referred to as the Sunseeker
special charges). In 2024, we also recognized special charges for
aircraft accelerated depreciation related to our revised fleet plan
and for a ratification bonus paid to flight attendants in
connection with our new collective bargaining agreement. The
accelerated depreciation and ratification bonus are sometimes
referred to as the airline special charges. We sometimes refer to
all special charges as "specials" in this earnings
release.
