Second quarter 2026 GAAP loss per share of $(0.21)(1)

Second quarter 2026 adjusted diluted earnings per share of $2.19(2)(3)(4), up 78.0 percent year-over-year

* Second quarter results include the financial performance of Sun Country only from and after the date the acquisition closed on May 13, 2026

LAS VEGAS., Aug. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Allegiant Travel Company (NASDAQ: ALGT) today reported the below financial results for second quarter 2026, as well as comparisons to the prior year.

"Our record quarterly revenue and strong second-quarter operating margin, achieved despite materially higher fuel costs, demonstrate the strength and resiliency of Allegiant's business model," stated Greg Anderson, chief executive officer of Allegiant Travel Company. "Despite a 6.8 percent capacity reduction, standalone Allegiant increased unit revenue 24.6 percent year over year and expanded adjusted operating margin 0.4 percentage points to 9.0 percent, keeping us on track to rank among the industry leaders in full-year operating margin.

"For the combined company, adjusted earnings per share of $2.19 were well above our guidance range. The upside was supported by strong operating results and approximately seven weeks of Sun Country earnings following our mid-May close. We are pleased with the pace of integration and are confident that we will achieve a minimum of $140 million in annual run-rate synergies within three years of close.

"Commercially, we are expanding customer choice through Allegiant First, which will debut on select aircraft next year; our new distribution agreement with Expedia, which is bringing in new customers to Allegiant; and our award-winning cobrand credit card, for which bank remuneration increased 23.6 percent year over year.

"Looking to the second half of 2026, leisure demand remains strong, and we expect the combined company's third-quarter unit revenue growth to be approximately in line with the 24.6 percent increase achieved by standalone Allegiant in the second quarter. Given fuel volatility, we will continue to trim off-peak flying while preserving the peak-period schedule. For the full year we are introducing combined-company adjusted earnings per share guidance of more than $6.00, reflecting the addition of Sun Country and current fuel prices.

"In closing, none of this happens without our team members, and I want to express my gratitude to Team Allegiant and Team Sun Country. We have never been better positioned, and I'm excited to build on this momentum in the quarters ahead as the leading leisure airline in the United States."

Comparability of consolidated figures to prior year performance is significantly impacted by the acquisition of Sun Country as of May 13, 2026, and by the sale of Sunseeker Resort in September 2025, as a result of which there were no operating revenues or operating expenses related to the Sunseeker segment after the sale.

In second quarter 2026, the Company incurred losses on debt extinguishment related to prepayment of debt facilities. These are added back, where appropriate, in our adjusted results.

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 adjusted earnings per share and adjusted operating margin in the table below. 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.

The below guidance is for the combined Allegiant and Sun Country entity.

Second quarter results include the financial performance of Sun Country only for the period from and after May 13, 2026.

(2) 

The Company's unvested restricted stock awards are considered participating securities as they receive non-forfeitable rights to cash dividends at the same rate as common stock. The basic and diluted earnings per share calculations for the periods presented reflect the two-class method mandated by ASC Topic 260, "Earnings Per Share." The two-class method adjusts both the net income and the shares used in the calculation. Application of the two-class method did not have a significant impact on the basic and diluted earnings per share for the periods presented.

(3) 

The number of shares used for the earnings per share calculations are significantly impacted by the issuance of shares in connection with the Sun Country acquisition and the period of time such shares were outstanding.

Appendix A
Non-GAAP Presentation
Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 and 2025
(Unaudited)

We present adjusted consolidated operating expense and adjusted consolidated operating income, which exclude special charges related to (i) the impact of losses and insurance recoveries incurred primarily as the result of hurricanes and other insured events at Sunseeker Resort, (ii) other charges related to the sale of Sunseeker, and (iii) the airline special charges listed in the table below. We also present adjusted consolidated interest expense, adjusted consolidated income before income taxes, adjusted consolidated net income, and adjusted consolidated diluted earnings per share, which exclude the special charges described above and losses on extinguishment of debt. 

We present adjusted airline-only operating expense, adjusted airline-only operating income, adjusted airline-only income before income taxes, adjusted airline-only net income, and adjusted airline-only diluted earnings per share which exclude special charges and other costs related to (i) aircraft accelerated depreciation on early retirement of certain airframes, (ii) accelerated amortization of software identified to be redeveloped, (iii) costs related to the Sun Country acquisition, (iv) a credit loss on a note receivable, and (v) losses on extinguishment of debt.

All of the measures described above 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 airlines and to compare our results to other airlines. Management believes the exclusion of these items enhances comparability of financial information between periods.

We also present adjusted airline-only CASM, which excludes aircraft fuel expense, special charges, and cargo expenses. Fuel price volatility impacts the comparability of year over year financial performance as do the airline special charges. Cargo expenses are excluded because they do not relate to available seat miles. We believe the adjustments for fuel expense, airline special charges, and cargo expenses allow investors to better understand our non-fuel costs and related performance.

Consolidated and airline-only earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("Consolidated EBITDA" and "Airline EBITDA"), adjusted Consolidated EBITDA, adjusted Airline EBITDA, and estimated adjusted earnings per share, 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. The adjusted EBITDA measures also exclude special charges and losses on the extinguishment of debt. 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 adjusted 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 (other than the estimated adjusted earnings per share and adjusted operating margin figures) 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 measures, which are operating expenses, operating income (loss), interest expense, income (loss) before income taxes, net income, and earnings 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, operating income (loss), interest expense, income (loss) before income taxes, net income (loss), earnings (loss) 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 2026 and 2025, we recognized certain expenses as special charges related to both: (1) Airline activities including accelerated depreciation on airframes identified for early retirement, accelerated amortization of software identified for redevelopment, costs related to the Sun Country Airlines acquisition, organizational restructuring, and a credit loss on a note receivable, and (2) Sunseeker Resort including costs related to the sale of the resort and weather-related damages (net of recoveries). For a listing of these charges, see the special charges table above. The adjusted numbers in this earnings release exclude the effect of these special charges.

(3) 

In 2026 and 2025, the Company incurred losses on debt extinguishment related to prepayment of debt facilities. These are added back, where appropriate, in our adjusted results.

(4) 

Results include the financial performance of Sun Country only for the period from and after May 13, 2026.

(5) 

Available seat miles do not include cargo.
