Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and include the accounts of Frontier Group Holdings, Inc. (“FGHI” or the “Company”) and its wholly-owned direct and indirect subsidiaries, including Frontier Airlines Holdings, Inc. (“FAH”) and Frontier Airlines, Inc. (“Frontier”). All wholly-owned subsidiaries are consolidated, with all intercompany transactions and balances being eliminated.

The Company is an ultra low-cost, low-fare airline headquartered in Denver, Colorado that offers flights throughout the United States and to select international destinations in the Americas, serving approximately 90 airports.

The Company is managed as a single business unit that provides air transportation for passengers. Management has concluded there is only one reportable segment.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and reflect all normal recurring adjustments which management believes are necessary to fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the respective periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for Form 10-Q. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, which was filed with the SEC on February 22, 2023 (the “2022 Annual Report”).

The interim results reflected in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for other interim periods or for the full year. The air transportation business is subject to significant seasonal fluctuations and is volatile and highly affected by economic cycles and trends.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2. Revenue Recognition

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s air traffic liability balance was $356 million and $328 million, respectively, which includes amounts classified in other long-term liabilities. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, 89% of the air traffic liability as of December 31, 2022 was recognized as passenger revenue within the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. Of the air traffic liability balances as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $72 million and $60 million, respectively, was related to unearned membership fees.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized $10 million, $20 million, $23 million and $45 million, respectively, in passenger revenues within the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations, related to expected and actual expiration of customer rights to book future travel.

Operating revenues are comprised of passenger revenues, which includes fare and non-fare passenger revenues, and other revenues. Disaggregated operating revenues are as follows (in millions):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2023		2022		2023		2022
Passenger revenues:
Fare	$	361	$	420	$	664	$	649
Non-fare passenger revenues:
Service fees	245		201		462		363
Baggage	232		186		453		316
Seat selection	74		68		146		122
Other	33		15		50		28
Total non-fare passenger revenue	584		470		1,111		829
Total passenger revenues	945		890		1,775		1,478
Other revenues	22		19		40		36
Total operating revenues	$	967	$	909	$	1,815	$	1,514

The Company is managed as a single business unit that provides air transportation for passengers. Operating revenues by principal geographic region, as defined by the U.S. Department of Transportation (the “DOT”), are as follows (in millions):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2023		2022		2023		2022
Domestic	$	877	$	819	$	1,658	$	1,365
Latin America	90		90		157		149
Total operating revenues	$	967	$	909	$	1,815	$	1,514

The Company attributes operating revenues by geographic region based upon the origin and destination of each passenger flight segment. The Company’s tangible assets consist primarily of flight equipment, which are mobile across geographic markets. Accordingly, assets are not allocated to specific geographic regions.

Frequent Flyer Program

The Company’s Frontier Miles frequent flyer program provides frequent flyer travel awards to program members based on accumulated mileage credits. Mileage credits are generally accumulated as a result of travel, purchases using the co-branded credit card and purchases from other participating partners. The Company defers revenue for mileage credits earned by passengers under its Frontier Miles program based on the equivalent ticket value a passenger receives by redeeming mileage credits for a ticket rather than paying cash.

The Company has a credit card affinity agreement with its credit card partner, Barclays Bank Delaware (“Barclays”), through 2029, which provides for joint marketing, grants certain benefits to co-branded credit cardholders (“Cardholders”) and allows Barclays to market using the Company’s customer database. Cardholders earn mileage credits under the Frontier Miles program and the Company sells mileage credits at agreed-upon rates to Barclays and earns fees from Barclays for the acquisition, retention and use of the co-branded credit card by Cardholders.

Derivative instruments	5		24

Total other current assets	$	78	$	114

4. Financial Derivative Instruments and Risk Management

The Company may be exposed to interest rate risk through aircraft and spare engine lease contracts for the time period between agreement of terms and commencement of the lease, when portions of rental payments can be adjusted and become fixed based on the swap rate. As part of its risk management program, the Company enters into contracts in order to limit the exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. During each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company did not enter into any swaps and, therefore, paid no upfront premiums. During each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company paid upfront premiums of $9 million for the option to enter into and exercise cash-settled swaps with a forward starting effective date for seven of the Company’s future aircraft deliveries. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had hedged the interest rate exposure on $295 million of total aircraft and spare engine rent for seven aircraft and two engines to be delivered by the end of 2023.

Additionally, the Company is exposed to credit losses in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to its derivative instruments but does not presently expect that any of its counterparties will fail to meet their respective obligations. The amount of such credit exposure is generally the fair value of the Company’s outstanding contracts in a receivable position. To manage credit risks, the Company selects counterparties based on credit assessments and monitors the market position with each counterparty.

The assets associated with the Company’s derivative instruments are presented on a gross basis and include upfront premiums paid. These assets are recorded as a component of other current assets on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. There were $5 million and $24 million of assets outstanding as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

__________________

(a)The Company, through an affiliate, entered into the pre-delivery payment (“PDP”) facility with Citibank, N.A., as facility agent, in December 2014 (as amended from time to time, the “PDP Financing Facility”). The PDP Financing Facility is primarily collateralized by the Company’s purchase agreement for Airbus A320 family aircraft deliveries (see Note 9) through the term of the facility, which extends through December 2025. As of June 30, 2023, the PDP Financing Facility allows for total commitments of up to $270 million.

Interest is paid every 90 days based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus a margin for each individual tranche. The PDP Financing Facility consists of separate loans for each PDP aircraft. Each separate loan matures upon the earlier of (i) delivery of that aircraft to the Company by Airbus, (ii) the date one month following the last day of the scheduled delivery month of such aircraft and (iii) if there is a delay in delivery of aircraft, depending on the cause of the delivery delay, up to six months following the last day of the scheduled delivery month of such aircraft. The PDP Financing Facility will be repaid periodically according to the preceding sentence, with the last scheduled delivery of aircraft expected to be in the fourth quarter of 2025.

(b)Represents a note with a commercial bank related to the Company’s headquarters building. Under the terms of the note, the Company began repaying the outstanding principal balance with quarterly payments beginning in January 2022 and continuing until the maturity date in December 2023. On the maturity date, one final balloon payment will be made to cover all unpaid principal, accrued unpaid interest and other amounts due. The interest rate of one-month SOFR plus a margin is payable monthly.

(c)The Company entered into an agreement with Barclays in 2003 which, as amended, provides for joint marketing, grants certain benefits to Cardholders and allows Barclays to market using the Company’s customer database, through 2029. Cardholders earn mileage credits under the Frontier Miles program and the Company sells mileage credits at agreed-upon rates to Barclays and earns fees from Barclays for the acquisition, retention and use of the co-branded credit card by Cardholders. In addition, Barclays will pre-purchase miles if the Company meets certain conditions precedent. The pre-purchased miles facility amount is to be reset on January 15 of each calendar year through, and including, January 15, 2028, based on the aggregate amount of fees payable by Barclays to the Company on a calendar year basis, up to an aggregate maximum facility amount of $200 million. The Company pays interest on a monthly basis, which is based on a one-month Effective Federal Funds Rate ("EFFR") plus a margin. Beginning March 31, 2028, the facility is scheduled to be repaid in 12 equal monthly installments.

(d)As a result of the Company’s participation in the payroll support programs offered by the U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”), the Company obtained a series of 10-year, low-interest loans from the Treasury (collectively, the “PSP Promissory Notes”) that are due between 2030 to 2031. The PSP Promissory Notes include an annual interest rate of 1.00% for the first five years and the SOFR plus 2.00% in the final five years, with bi-annual interest payments. The loans can be prepaid at par at any time without incurring a penalty.

In connection with the term loan facility entered into with the Treasury on September 28, 2020 (the “Treasury Loan”), which was repaid in full on February 2, 2022, and the PSP Promissory Notes, the Company issued to the Treasury warrants to purchase 3,117,940 shares of FGHI common stock at a weighted-average price of $6.95 per share. The Treasury has not exercised any warrants as of June 30, 2023.

Cash payments for interest related to debt were $12 million and $5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

The Company has caused standby letters of credit and surety bonds to be issued to various airport authorities and vendors that are collateralized by a portion of the Company’s property and equipment and, as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company did not have any outstanding letters of credit that were drawn upon.

As of June 30, 2023, future maturities of debt are payable as follows (in millions):

	June 30, 2023
Remainder of 2023	$	102
2024	163
2025	22
2026	—
2027	—
Thereafter	146
Total debt principal payments	$	433

The Company continues to monitor covenant compliance with various parties, including, but not limited to, its lenders and credit card processors, and as of June 30, 2023, the Company was in compliance with all of its covenants.

7. Operating Leases

The Company leases property and equipment under operating leases. For leases with initial terms greater than 12 months, the related operating lease right-of-use asset and corresponding operating lease liability are recorded at the present value of lease payments over the term on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. Some leases include rental escalation clauses, renewal options, termination options and/or other items that cause variability that are factored into the determination of lease payments, when appropriate. The Company does not separate lease and non-lease components of contracts, except for certain flight training equipment, for which consideration is allocated between lease and non-lease components.

Aircraft

As of June 30, 2023, the Company leased 126 aircraft with remaining terms ranging from one month to 12 years, all of which are under operating leases and are included within operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. In addition, as of June 30, 2023, the Company leased 32 spare engines which are all under operating leases, with the remaining term ranging from one month to 12 years. As of June 30, 2023, the lease rates for 13 of the engines depend on usage-based metrics which are variable and, as such, these leases are not recorded on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets as operating lease right-of-use assets or as operating lease liabilities.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company executed sale-leaseback transactions with third-party lessors for one, four, three and five new Airbus A320neo family aircraft, respectively, and also entered into direct leases for two and five new Airbus A320neo family aircraft during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. The Company did not enter into any direct leases during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. Additionally, the Company completed sale-leaseback transactions for one and two engines during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, and two engines for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. All of the leases from the sale-leaseback transactions are accounted for as operating leases. The Company recognized net sale-leaseback gains from those sale-leaseback transactions of $17 million, $57 million, $21 million and $28 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, which are included as a component of other operating expenses within the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Aircraft Rent Expense and Maintenance Obligations

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, aircraft rent expense was $148 million, $279 million, $133 million and $261 million respectively. Aircraft rent expense includes supplemental rent, which is made up of maintenance reserves paid or to be paid that are not probable of being reimbursed and probable lease return condition obligations. Supplemental rent expense (benefit) for maintenance-related reserves that were deemed non-recoverable, and any impact from changes in those estimates, was ($2 million) for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and ($1 million) for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. The portion of supplemental rent expense related to probable lease return condition obligations was $22 million, $24 million, $18 million and $33 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s total leased aircraft return cost liability was $58 million and $102 million, respectively, which are reflected in other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities within the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Additionally, certain of the Company’s aircraft lease agreements require the Company to pay maintenance reserves to aircraft lessors to be held as collateral in advance of the Company’s required performance of major maintenance activities. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had aircraft maintenance deposits that are expected to be recoverable of $109 million and $117 million, respectively, on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets, of which $24 million and $12 million, respectively, are included in accounts receivable, net on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets as the eligible maintenance has been performed. The remaining $85 million and $105 million are included within aircraft maintenance deposits on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

A majority of these maintenance reserve payments are calculated based on a utilization measure, such as flight hours or cycles. Maintenance reserves collateralize the lessor for maintenance time run off the aircraft until the completion of the maintenance of the aircraft. As of June 30, 2023, fixed maintenance reserve payments for aircraft and spare engines, including estimated amounts for contractual price escalations, were expected to be $2 million for the remainder of 2023, $3 million per year for 2024 through 2026, $4 million for 2027 and $5 million thereafter, before consideration of reimbursements.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company extended the term for certain aircraft operating leases that were slated to expire in the fourth quarter of 2023. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded an $18 million benefit to aircraft rent in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations related to previously accrued lease return costs that were variable in nature and associated with the anticipated utilization and condition of the airframes and engines at original return date. Given the extension of these aircraft operating leases, such variable return costs are no longer probable of occurring.

Airport Facilities

The Company’s facility leases are primarily for space at approximately 90 airports that are primarily located in the United States. These leases are classified as operating leases and reflect the use of airport terminals, ticket counters, office space and maintenance facilities. Generally, this space is leased from government agencies that control the use of the airport. The majority of these leases are short-term in nature and renew on an evergreen basis. For these leases, the contractual term is used as the lease term. As of June 30, 2023, the remaining lease terms vary from one month to 12 years. At the majority of the U.S. airports, the lease rates depend on airport operating costs or use of the facilities and are reset at least annually, and because of the variable nature of the rates, these leases are not recorded on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities.

Other Ground Property and Equipment

The Company leases certain other assets such as flight training equipment, building space and various other equipment. Certain of the Company’s leases for other assets are deemed to contain fixed rental payments and, as such, are classified as operating leases and are recorded on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets as a right-of-use asset and liability. The remaining lease terms ranged from one month to nine years as of June 30, 2023.

Lease Costs

The table below presents certain information related to lease costs for operating leases during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 (in millions):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2023		2022		2023		2022
Operating lease cost(a)	$	131	$	118	$	258	$	235
Variable lease cost(a)	70		64		144		119
Total lease costs	$	201	$	182	$	402	$	354

______________

(a)    Expenses are included within aircraft rent, station operations, maintenance, materials and repairs and other operating within the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company acquired, through new or modified operating leases, operating lease assets totaling $107 million, $338 million, $87 million and $148 million, respectively, which are included in operating lease right-of-use assets on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company paid cash of $130 million, $257 million, $119 million and $236 million, respectively, for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities.

8. Stock-Based Compensation

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized $3 million, $7 million, $4 million and $7 million, respectively, in stock-based compensation expense, which is included as a component of salaries, wages and benefits within the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Stock Options and Restricted Awards

There were no stock options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2023. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, 2,057,123 vested stock options were exercised with a weighted-average exercise price of $0.32 per share. As of June 30, 2023, the weighted-average exercise price of outstanding options was $2.60 per share.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, 1,507,011 restricted stock units were issued with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $11.86 per share. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, 1,162,274 restricted stock units vested, of which 417,894 restricted stock units were withheld to cover employees’ tax withholding obligations, with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $11.88 and $12.32 per share, respectively.

Phantom Equity Awards

On December 3, 2013, to give effect to the reorganization of the Company’s corporate structure, an agreement was reached to amend and restate a phantom equity agreement with the Company’s pilots. Under the terms of this agreement, when an amendment to the underlying collective bargaining agreement was approved, the Company’s pilots employed in June 2011 (the “Participating Pilots”), through their agent, FAPAInvest, LLC, received phantom equity units. Each unit represented the right to receive common stock or cash in connection with certain events, including a qualifying initial public offering, such stock to be distributed or cash paid to the Participating Pilots in 2020 and 2022 based on a predetermined formula. In accordance with the amended and restated phantom equity agreement, the obligation became fixed as of December 31, 2019 and was no longer subject to valuation adjustments. As of December 31, 2021, the remaining liability was $26 million and presented within other current liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the $26 million was fully paid.

Stockholders’ Equity

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had authorized common stock (voting), common stock (non-voting) and preferred stock of 750,000,000, 150,000,000 and 10,000,000 shares, respectively, of which only common stock (voting) were issued and outstanding. All classes of equity have a par value of $0.001 per share.

9. Commitments and Contingencies

Flight Equipment Commitments

As of June 30, 2023, the Company’s firm aircraft and engine purchase orders consisted of the following:

	A320neo	A321neo	Total Aircraft(a)	Engines
Year Ending
Remainder of 2023	—	7	7	2
2024	—	24	24	2
2025	17	24	41	4
2026	19	22	41	4

Thereafter	10	52	62	2
Total	67	150	217	17

__________________

(a)    While the schedule presented reflects the contractual delivery dates as of June 30, 2023, the Company has recently experienced modest delays in the deliveries of Airbus aircraft which may persist in future periods.

The Company is party to certain aircraft purchase agreements with Airbus (as amended from time to time, the “Airbus Purchase Agreements”) pursuant to which, as of June 30, 2023, the Company had commitments to purchase an aggregate of 67 A320neo and 150 A321neo aircraft, with deliveries expected through 2029 per the latest delivery schedule. The Company has the option to convert 18 A320neo family aircraft to A321XLR family aircraft under certain terms and conditions. Since the option has not been exercised, this conversion right is not reflected in the table above.

The Airbus Purchase Agreements also provide for, among other things, varying purchase incentives for each aircraft type (e.g., A320neo versus A321neo), which are allocated proportionally by aircraft type over the remaining aircraft to be delivered so that each aircraft’s capitalized cost upon induction would be equal. Therefore, as cash paid for deliveries is greater than the capitalized cost due to the allocation of these purchase incentives, a deferred purchase incentive is recognized within other assets on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets, which will ultimately be offset by future deliveries of aircraft with lower cash payments than their associated capitalized cost.

In April 2022, the Company’s agreement with Pratt & Whitney, the provider of engines for certain of the Company’s undelivered aircraft order book, was amended to include additional spare engine commitments and adjust the timing of remaining deliveries, which has been reflected in the table above.

As of June 30, 2023, purchase commitments for these aircraft and engines, including estimated amounts for contractual price escalations and PDPs, consisted of the following:

(in millions)	Total
Remainder of 2023	$	417
2024	1,448
2025	2,437
2026	2,357
2027	2,447
Thereafter	3,757
Total	$	12,863

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had signed lease agreements with two of its leasing partners to add ten additional A321neo aircraft through direct leases. Five of the aircraft have been delivered, with two such direct lease deliveries having occurred in the second quarter of 2023, and the remaining five continuing into the third quarter of 2023, based on the latest delivery schedule. None of these five undelivered aircraft are reflected in the table above given these are not purchase orders.

Litigation and Other Contingencies

The Company is subject to commercial litigation claims and to administrative and regulatory proceedings and reviews that may be asserted or maintained from time to time. The Company regularly evaluates the status of such matters to assess whether a loss is probable and reasonably estimable in determining whether an accrual is appropriate. Furthermore, in determining whether disclosure is appropriate, the Company evaluates each matter to assess if there is at least a reasonable possibility that a loss or additional losses may have been incurred and whether an estimate of possible loss or range of loss can be made. The Company believes the ultimate outcome of such lawsuits, proceedings and reviews will not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on its condensed consolidated financial position, liquidity or results of operations and that the Company’s current accruals cover matters where loss is deemed probable and can be reasonably estimated.

The ultimate outcome of legal actions is unpredictable and can be subject to significant uncertainties, and it is difficult to determine whether any loss is probable or even possible. Additionally, it is also difficult to estimate the amount of loss and there may be matters for which a loss is probable or reasonably possible but not currently estimable. Thus, actual losses may be in excess of any recorded liability or the range of reasonably possible loss.

Employees

The Company has seven union-represented employee groups that together represented approximately 86% of all employees as of June 30, 2023. The table below sets forth the Company’s employee groups and status of the collective bargaining agreements as of June 30, 2023:

			Percentage of Workforce
Employee Group	Representative	Amendable Date(a)	June 30, 2023
Pilots	Air Line Pilots Association (ALPA)	January 2024	31%
Flight Attendants	Association of Flight Attendants (AFA-CWA)	May 2024	49%
Aircraft Technicians	International Brotherhood of Teamsters (IBT)	May 2025	4%
Aircraft Appearance Agents	IBT	October 2023	1%
Dispatchers	Transport Workers Union (TWU)	December 2021(b)	1%
Material Specialists	IBT	March 2022(b)	<1%
Maintenance Controllers	IBT	October 2023	<1%

__________________

(a)    Subject to standard early opener provisions.

(b)    The Company’s collective bargaining agreements with its dispatchers and material specialists, represented by TWU and IBT, respectively, were still amendable as of June 30, 2023 and negotiations are ongoing; however, each agreement is operating under its current arrangement until an amendment has been reached.

The Company is self-insured for health care claims, subject to a stop-loss policy, for eligible participating employees and qualified dependent medical and dental claims, subject to deductibles and limitations. The Company’s liabilities for claims incurred but not reported are determined based on an estimate of the ultimate aggregate liability for claims incurred. The estimate is calculated from actual claim rates and adjusted periodically as necessary. The Company had accrued $6 million and $5 million for health care claims estimated to be incurred but not yet paid, as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, which are included as a component of other current liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

General Indemnifications

The Company has various leases with respect to real property as well as various agreements among airlines relating to fuel consortia or fuel farms at airports. Under some of these contracts, the Company is party to joint and several liability regarding environmental damages. Under others, where the Company is a member of an LLC or other entity that contracts directly with the airport operator, liabilities are borne through the fuel consortia structure.

The Company’s aircraft, services, equipment lease and sale and financing agreements typically contain provisions requiring the Company, as the lessee, obligor or recipient of services, to indemnify the other parties to those agreements, including certain of those parties’ related persons, against virtually any liabilities that might arise from the use or operation of the aircraft or such other equipment. The Company believes that its insurance would cover most of its exposure to liabilities and related indemnities associated with the commercial real estate leases and aircraft, services, equipment lease and sale and financing agreements described above.

Certain of the Company’s aircraft and other financing transactions include provisions that require payments to preserve an expected economic return to the lenders if that economic return is diminished due to certain changes in law or regulations. In certain of these financing transactions and other agreements, the Company also bears the risk of certain changes in tax laws that would subject payments to non-U.S. entities to withholding taxes.

Certain of these indemnities survive the length of the related financing or lease. The Company cannot reasonably estimate the potential future payments under the indemnities and related provisions described above because it cannot predict (i) when and under what circumstances these provisions may be triggered, and (ii) the amount that would be payable if the provisions were triggered because the amounts would be based on facts and circumstances existing at such time.

10. Net Earnings (Loss) per Share

Basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share are computed pursuant to the two-class method. Under the two-class method, the Company attributes net income to common stock and other participating rights (including those with vested share-based awards). Basic net earnings per share is calculated by taking net income, less earnings allocated to participating rights, divided by the basic weighted-average common stock outstanding. Net loss per share is calculated by taking net loss divided by basic weighted-average common stock outstanding as participating rights do not share in losses. In accordance with the two-class method, diluted net earnings per share is calculated using the more dilutive impact of the treasury-stock method or from reducing net income for the earnings allocated to participating rights.

The following table sets forth the computation of net earnings (loss) per share on a basic and diluted basis pursuant to the two-class method for the periods indicated (in millions, except for share and per share amounts):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2023		2022		2023		2022
Basic:
Net income (loss)	$	71	$	13	$	58	$	(108)
Less: net income attributable to participating rights	(2)		—		(2)		—
Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders	$	69	$	13	$	56	$	(108)
Weighted-average common shares outstanding, basic	219,402,647		217,602,480		218,792,850		217,438,904
Net earnings (loss) per share, basic	$	0.32	$	0.06	$	0.26	$	(0.49)
Diluted:
Net income (loss)	$	71	$	13	$	58	$	(108)
Less: net income attributable to participating rights	(2)		—		(2)		—
Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders	$	69	$	13	$	56	$	(108)
Weighted-average common shares outstanding, basic	219,402,647		217,602,480		218,792,850		217,438,904
Effect of dilutive potential common shares	1,023,012		1,334,065		1,430,423		—
Weighted-average common shares outstanding, diluted	220,425,659		218,936,545		220,223,273		217,438,904
Net earnings (loss) per share, diluted	$	0.31	$	0.06	$	0.26	$	(0.49)

Approximately 2,886,151 and 2,264,024 shares were excluded from the computation of diluted shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, due to antidilutive effects. Approximately 2,284,417 shares were excluded from the computation of diluted shares for the three months ended June 30, 2022 due to antidilutive effects. Due to the net loss incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2022, diluted weighted-average shares outstanding are equal to basic weighted-average shares outstanding because the effect of all equity awards is anti-dilutive.

11. Fair Value Measurements

Under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, disclosures relating to how fair value is determined for assets and liabilities are required, and a hierarchy for which these assets and liabilities must be grouped is established, based on significant levels of inputs, as follows:

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2—Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company utilizes several valuation techniques in order to assess the fair value of its financial assets and liabilities.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash are comprised of liquid money market funds, time deposits and cash, and are categorized as Level 1 instruments. The Company maintains cash with various high-quality financial institutions and holds restricted cash to secure medical claims paid. Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash are carried at cost, which management believes approximates fair value. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had less than $1 million of restricted cash.

Interest Rate Derivative Contracts

Interest rate derivative contracts are valued under an income approach based on data either readily observable in public markets, derived from public markets or provided by counterparties who regularly trade in public markets and, therefore, they are classified as Level 2 inputs. Given the swaptions will be cash-settled upon exercise and that the market value will be determined using overnight indexed swap (“OIS”) discounting, OIS discounting is applied to the income approach valuation.

Debt

The estimated fair value of the Company’s debt agreements has been determined to be Level 3 measurement, as certain inputs used to determine the fair value of these agreements are unobservable. The Company utilizes a discounted cash flow method to estimate the fair value of the Level 3 debt.

In August 2018, the Company and Volaris began operating scheduled codeshare flights. The codeshare agreement provides for codeshare fees and revenue sharing for the codeshare flights. Each party bears its own costs and expenses of performance under the agreement, is required to indemnify the other party for certain claims and losses arising out of or related to the agreement and is responsible for complying with certain marketing and product display guidelines. The codeshare agreement also establishes a joint management committee, which includes representatives from both parties and generally oversees the management of the transactions and relationships contemplated by the agreement. The codeshare agreement is subject to automatic renewals and may be terminated by either party at any time upon the satisfaction of certain conditions.

13. The Proposed Merger with Spirit Airlines, Inc. (“Spirit”)

On February 5, 2022, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Top Gun Acquisition Corp. (“Merger Sub”), a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and Spirit. The Merger Agreement provided that, among other things, the Merger Sub would be merged with and into Spirit (the “Merger”), with Spirit surviving the Merger and continuing as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. On July 27, 2022, the Company and Spirit mutually terminated the Merger Agreement.

The Company recorded less than $1 million and $1 million in expenses related to the proposed Merger within transaction and merger-related costs in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, which represented merger-related retention bonus expense for all eligible employees who were subject to CARES Act compensation restrictions. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded $9 million and $20 million, respectively, of expenses related to the proposed Merger within transaction and merger-related costs in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations. These costs included $4 million and $12 million, respectively, related to transaction costs, which include banking, legal and accounting fees, among others, charged in connection with the Merger, and $5 million and $8 million, respectively, of retention bonus expenses.

In the event that Spirit, within twelve months following the termination of the Merger Agreement, consummates an acquisition with another acquiror or enters into a definitive written agreement providing for an acquisition with another acquiror, which is ultimately consummated, the Company will be owed an additional $69 million, as provided for in the Merger Agreement.

Overview

Frontier Airlines, Inc. (“Frontier”) is an ultra low-cost carrier whose business strategy is focused on Low Fares Done Right. We are headquartered in Denver, Colorado and offer flights throughout the United States and to select near international destinations in the Americas. Our unique strategy is underpinned by our low-cost structure and superior low-fare brand.

The following table provides select financial and operational information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively:

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2023		2022		2023		2022
	(in millions)				(in millions)
Total operating revenues	$	967	$	909	$	1,815	$	1,514
Total operating expenses	$	888	$	902	$	1,761	$	1,660
Income (loss) before income taxes	$	88	$	8	$	71	$	(153)
Available seat miles (“ASMs”)	9,337		7,594		18,112		15,036

Total operating revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 totaled $967 million and $1,815 million, respectively, an increase of 6% and 20% compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. This was primarily due to an increase in capacity, as measured by ASMs, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2022, along with an increase in ancillary revenue per passenger, partially offset by a decrease in fare revenue per passenger.

24

Total operating expenses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 totaled $888 million and $1,761 million, respectively, resulting in a cost per available seat mile (“CASM”) of 9.51¢ and 9.72¢, compared to 11.87¢ and 11.04¢ for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. Fuel expense was 27% lower and 3% lower during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. The $91 million and $14 million decrease in fuel expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in 2022, are primarily driven by a 39% and 18% decrease in fuel rates, partially offset by the 19% and 18% increase in fuel gallons consumed during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, as a result of the 23% and 20% increase in capacity, respectively. Our non-fuel expenses increased by 14% and 10% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to the corresponding prior year periods, driven primarily by higher capacity and a larger fleet size and the resulting increase in operations during these same periods. CASM (excluding fuel), a non-GAAP measure, decreased 8% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to 6.90¢, as compared to the corresponding period in 2022, as a result of the increase to capacity and was also favorably impacted by station costs due mainly to lower passenger reaccomodation costs, the fixed nature of aircraft rent expense, insignificant transaction and merger-related costs and lower sales and marketing costs, which was partially offset by higher maintenance, material and repair costs. CASM (excluding fuel), a non-GAAP measure, decreased 8% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to 6.77¢, as compared to the corresponding period in 2022, as a result of the increase to capacity and was also favorably impacted by lower aircraft rent including the reversal of $18 million of previously accrued lease return costs, higher sale-leaseback gains, lower transaction and merger-related expenses and the semi-fixed nature of certain airport costs, partially offset by higher maintenance, material and repair costs. Adjusted (non-GAAP) CASM (excluding fuel) decreased from 7.24¢ for the three months ended June 30, 2022 to 6.90¢ for the three months ended June 30, 2023. For the three months ended June 30, 2022, this excludes the impact of $9 million in transaction and merger-related costs, $7 million in asset impairment charges and $1 million in collective bargaining contract ratification costs. There were no adjustments for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Adjusted (non-GAAP) CASM (excluding fuel) decreased from 7.19¢ for the six months ended June 30, 2022 to 6.76¢ for the six months ended June 30, 2023. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, this excludes the impact of $20 million in transaction and merger-related costs, $7 million in asset impairment charges and $1 million in collective bargaining contract ratification costs. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, this excludes the impact of $1 million in transaction and merger-related costs. For the reconciliation to corresponding generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) measures, see “Results of Operations—Reconciliation of CASM to CASM (excluding fuel), Adjusted CASM (excluding fuel), Adjusted CASM, Adjusted CASM including net interest and CASM including net interest.”

We generated net income of $71 million and $58 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to net income of $13 million and a net loss of $108 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. Considering these aforementioned non-GAAP adjustments and the related tax impacts, our adjusted (non-GAAP) net income was $71 million and $59 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to an adjusted (non-GAAP) net income of $20 million and a net loss of $89 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. For the reconciliation to corresponding GAAP measures, see “Results of Operations—Reconciliation of Pre-Tax Income (Loss) to Adjusted Pre-Tax Income (Loss), Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and to EBITDA, EBITDAR, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDAR.”

As of June 30, 2023, our total available liquidity was $780 million, made up of cash and cash equivalents. On February 2, 2022, we repaid the $150 million outstanding under our term loan facility (the “Treasury Loan”) with the U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”). The repayment of this loan unencumbered our co-branded credit card program and related brand assets that secured the Treasury Loan obligation.

Total operating revenue increased $58 million, or 6%, during the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022, as we experienced increased demand for leisure travel. Revenue was favorably impacted by a 23% capacity growth, as measured by ASMs, during the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022. This was driven by a 12% increase in average aircraft in service during the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022, as well as a 6% increase in average daily aircraft utilization to 11.5 hours per day for the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to 10.9 hours per day for the corresponding prior year period. Revenue was unfavorably impacted by the 14% decline in RASM due to the 9% decline in revenue per passenger mainly caused by moderation of fare revenue per passenger and the 8% increase in average stage length, partially offset by a 6% increase in total ancillary revenue per passenger and increased load factors during the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022.

(a)Cost per ASM figures may not recalculate due to rounding.

(b)CASM (excluding fuel) and Adjusted CASM (excluding fuel) are included as supplemental disclosures because we believe that excluding aircraft fuel is useful to investors as it provides an additional measure of management’s performance excluding the effects of a significant cost item over which management has limited influence. The price of fuel, over which we have limited control, impacts the comparability of period-to-period financial performance, and excluding the price of fuel allows management an additional tool to understand and analyze our non-fuel costs and core operating performance, and increases comparability with other airlines that also provide a similar metric. CASM (excluding fuel) and Adjusted CASM (excluding fuel) are not determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

(e)Represents $1 million of costs related to the collective bargaining contract ratification costs earned through May 2023 and committed to by us as part of an agreement with the union representing our aircraft technicians that was ratified and became effective in May 2022.

(f)Adjusted CASM is included as supplemental disclosure because we believe it is a useful metric to properly compare our cost management and performance to other peers, as derivations of Adjusted CASM are well-recognized performance measurements in the airline industry that are frequently used by our management, as well as by investors, securities analysts and other interested parties in comparing the operating performance of companies in the airline industry. Additionally, we believe this metric is useful because it removes certain items that may not be indicative of base operating performance or future results. Adjusted CASM is not determined in accordance with GAAP, may not be comparable across all carriers and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

(g)Adjusted CASM including net interest and CASM including net interest are included as supplemental disclosures because we believe they are useful metrics to properly compare our cost management and performance to other peers that may have different capital structures and financing strategies, particularly as it relates to financing primary operating assets such as aircraft and engines. Additionally, we believe these metrics are useful because they remove certain items that may not be indicative of base operating performance or future results. Adjusted CASM including net interest and CASM including net interest are not determined in accordance with GAAP, may not be comparable across all carriers and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

28

Aircraft Fuel. Aircraft fuel expense decreased by $91 million, or 27%, during the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to a 39% decrease in fuel rates partially offset by a 19% increase in fuel gallons consumed due to increased capacity.

Salaries, Wages and Benefits. Salaries, wages and benefits expense increased by $37 million, or 21%, during the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to higher crew costs, primarily from pilots, driven by elevated credit hours and other benefit costs, as well as increased headcount of salaried support staff.

Aircraft Rent. Aircraft rent expense increased by $15 million, or 11%, during the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to a larger fleet and higher costs associated with anticipated lease returns.

Station Operations. Station operations expense increased by $4 million, or 3%, during the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to a 17% and 11% increase in passengers and departures, respectively, as well as higher station agent commission costs partially offset by lower passenger reaccommodation expenses.

Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expense decreased by $2 million, or 4%, during the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to a reduction in media advertising expense and lower booking fees, partially offset by higher credit card fees resulting from the 6% increase in revenue. The following table presents our distribution channel mix:

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Change
Distribution Channel	2023		2022		2023 vs. 2022
Our website, mobile app and other direct channels	71	%	68	%	3	pts
Third-party channels	29	%	32	%	(3)	pts

Maintenance, Materials and Repairs. Maintenance, materials and repair expense increased by $21 million, or 68%, during the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022. This was primarily due to more average aircraft in service and higher average daily utilization per aircraft, which resulted in higher maintenance costs, including higher aircraft materials and airframe check expenses, as well as associated contract labor costs.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $3 million, or 20%, during the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to a loss on asset disposal during the comparable period, partially offset by an increase in capital maintenance.

Transaction and Merger-Related Costs. Transaction and merger-related costs decreased by $9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022, as the Merger Agreement was terminated on July 27, 2022.

Other Operating Expenses. Other operating expenses increased by $14 million, or 36%, during the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was primarily driven by increased administrative costs, including IT and professional services as well as higher travel expenses relating to crew accommodations, driven by an increase in capacity. These increases were partially offset by lower gains on sale-leaseback transactions compared to the corresponding prior period.

Other Income (Expense). Other income increased by $8 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022. Higher interest rates and increased balances in our interest-bearing cash accounts contributed to an increase in interest income. Additionally, higher interest rates contributed to greater capitalized interest which was partially offset by interest expense as a result of rate increases on our variable rate debt.

29

Income Taxes. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was an expense of 19.3%, compared to a benefit of 62.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was lower than the statutory rate primarily due to excess tax benefits associated with our stock-based compensation arrangements. The increase in the estimated annual tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the estimated annual effective rate for the first quarter of 2022, resulted in an income tax benefit for the three months ended June 30, 2022.

Total operating revenue increased $301 million, or 20%, during the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, as we experienced increased demand for leisure travel. Revenue was favorably impacted by 20% capacity growth, as measured by ASMs, during the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. This was driven by an 11% increase in average aircraft in service during the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, as well as a 6% increase in average daily aircraft utilization to 11.4 hours per day for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to 10.8 hours per day for the corresponding prior year period. RASM remained consistent for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, as load factor increased 4.9 pts. and ancillary revenue per passenger increased 10%, partially offset by a 7% increase in average stage length and a 1% decrease in total revenue per passenger.

(a)Cost per ASM figures may not recalculate due to rounding.

(b)CASM (excluding fuel) and Adjusted CASM (excluding fuel) are included as supplemental disclosures because we believe that excluding aircraft fuel is useful to investors as it provides an additional measure of management’s performance excluding the effects of a significant cost item over which management has limited influence. The price of fuel, over which we have limited control, impacts the comparability of period-to-period financial performance, and excluding the price of fuel allows management an additional tool to understand and analyze our non-fuel costs and core operating performance, and increases comparability with other airlines that also provide a similar metric. CASM (excluding fuel) and Adjusted CASM (excluding fuel) are not determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

(c)Represents $1 million in employee retention costs incurred in connection with the terminated Merger with Spirit for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Represents $12 million in transaction costs, including banking, legal and accounting fees, and $8 million in employee retention costs incurred in connection with the terminated Merger with Spirit for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

(d)Represents a write-off of $7 million in capitalized software development costs as a result of a termination of a vendor arrangement.

(e)Represents $1 million of costs related to a one-time contract ratification incentive, plus payroll-related taxes earned through May 2023 and committed to by us as part of an agreement with the union representing our aircraft technicians that was ratified and became effective in May 2022.

(f)Adjusted CASM is included as supplemental disclosure because we believe it is a useful metric to properly compare our cost management and performance to other peers, as derivations of Adjusted CASM are well-recognized performance measurements in the airline industry that are frequently used by our management, as well as by investors, securities analysts and other interested parties in comparing the operating performance of companies in the airline industry. Additionally, we believe this metric is useful because it removes certain items that may not be indicative of base operating performance or future results. Adjusted CASM is not determined in accordance with GAAP, may not be comparable across all carriers and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

32

(g)On February 2, 2022, we repaid the Treasury Loan, which resulted in a one-time write-off of the remaining $7 million in unamortized deferred financing costs related to the Treasury Loan. This amount is a component of interest expense.

(h)Adjusted CASM including net interest and CASM including net interest are included as supplemental disclosures because we believe they are useful metrics to properly compare our cost management and performance to other peers that may have different capital structures and financing strategies, particularly as it relates to financing primary operating assets such as aircraft and engines. Additionally, we believe these metrics are useful because they remove certain items that may not be indicative of base operating performance or future results. Adjusted CASM including net interest and CASM including net interest are not determined in accordance with GAAP, may not be comparable across all carriers and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Aircraft Fuel. Aircraft fuel expense decreased by $14 million, or 3%, during the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to an 18% decrease in fuel rates, partially offset by the 18% increase in gallons consumed, driven by our higher capacity.

Salaries, Wages and Benefits. Salaries, wages and benefits expense increased by $68 million, or 20%, during the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to higher crew costs, primarily from pilots, driven by elevated credit hours and other benefit costs, and an increased headcount of salaried support staff for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Aircraft Rent. Aircraft rent expense increased by $18 million, or 7%, during the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to a larger fleet, partially offset by the reversal of $18 million of previously accrued lease return costs due to a four-year lease extension of two of our aircraft.

Station Operations. Station operations expense increased by $23 million, or 10%, during the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to a 21% and 11% increase in passengers and departures, respectively, as well as higher station agent commissions costs partially offset by lower passenger reaccommodation expenses.

Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expense increased by $6 million, or 8%, during the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to higher credit card fees resulting from the 20% increase in revenue, partially offset by a reduction in media advertising. The following table presents our distribution channel mix:

	Six Months Ended June 30,				Change
Distribution Channel	2023		2022		2023 vs. 2022
Our website, mobile app and other direct channels	71	%	69	%	2	pts
Third-party channels	29	%	31	%	(2)	pts

Maintenance, Materials and Repairs. Maintenance, materials and repair expense increased by $32 million, or 49%, during the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. This was primarily due to more average aircraft in service and higher average daily utilization per aircraft, which resulted in higher maintenance costs, including higher aircraft materials and airframe check expenses, as well as associated contract labor costs.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $5 million, or 18%, during the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to a loss on asset disposal during the six months ended June 30, 2023, partially offset by an increase in capital maintenance.

Transaction and Merger-Related Costs. Transaction and merger-related costs decreased by $19 million, or 95%, during the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, as the Merger Agreement was terminated on July 27, 2022.

33

Other Operating Expenses. Other operating expenses decreased by $8 million, or 9%, during the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily driven by $29 million in additional sale-leaseback gains, partially offset by increases to supplies and general and administrative costs, including IT and professional services, as well as increases to travel expenses relating to crew accommodations, driven by an increase in capacity.

Other Income (Expense). Other income increased by $24 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. Higher interest rates and increased balances in our interest-bearing cash accounts contributed to an increase in interest income. Additionally, higher interest rates contributed to greater capitalized interest which was partially offset by interest expense as a result of rate increases on our variable rate debt, and during the six months ended June 30, 2022, there was a $7 million loss from the extinguishment of debt related to the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs associated with the Treasury Loan.

Income Taxes. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was an expense of 18.3%, compared to a benefit of 29.4% for six months ended June 30, 2022. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was lower than the statutory rate primarily due to excess tax benefits associated with our stock-based compensation arrangements. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2022 is higher than the statutory rate due to the non-deductibility of certain executive compensation costs and other employee benefits.

__________________

(a)Adjusted pre-tax income (loss), adjusted net income (loss), EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are included as supplemental disclosures because we believe they are useful indicators of our operating performance. Derivations of pre-tax income, net income and EBITDA are well-recognized performance measurements in the airline industry that are frequently used by our management, as well as by investors, securities analysts and other interested parties in comparing the operating performance of companies in our industry.

Adjusted pre-tax income (loss), adjusted net income (loss), EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools. Some of the limitations applicable to these measures include: adjusted pre-tax income (loss), adjusted net income (loss), EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the impact of certain cash charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations; adjusted pre-tax income (loss), adjusted net income (loss), EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our indebtedness or possible cash requirements related to our warrants; although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; and other companies in our industry may calculate adjusted pre-tax income (loss), adjusted net income (loss), EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. Because of these limitations, adjusted pre-tax income (loss), adjusted net income (loss), EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation from or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because derivations of adjusted pre-tax income (loss), adjusted net income (loss), EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are not determined in accordance with GAAP, such measures are susceptible to varying calculations and not all companies calculate the measures in the same manner. As a result, derivations of pre-tax income (loss), net income (loss) and EBITDA, including adjusted pre-tax income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted EBITDA, as presented may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies.

For the foregoing reasons, each of adjusted pre-tax income (loss), adjusted net income (loss), EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA has significant limitations which affect its use as an indicator of our profitability. Accordingly, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on this information.

(b)EBITDAR and adjusted EBITDAR are included as a supplemental disclosure because we believe them to be useful solely as valuation metrics for airlines as their calculations isolate the effects of financing in general, the accounting effects of capital spending and acquisitions (primarily aircraft, which may be acquired directly, directly subject to acquisition debt, by capital lease or by operating lease, each of which is presented differently for accounting purposes), and income taxes, which may vary significantly between periods and for different airlines for reasons unrelated to the underlying value of a particular airline. However, EBITDAR and adjusted EBITDAR are not determined in accordance with GAAP, are susceptible to varying calculations and not all companies calculate the measure in the same manner. As a result, EBITDAR and adjusted EBITDAR, as presented, may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. In addition, EBITDAR and adjusted EBITDAR should not be viewed as a measure of overall performance since they exclude aircraft rent, which is a normal, recurring cash operating expense that is necessary to operate our business. Accordingly, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on this information.

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Financial Position

Overview

As of June 30, 2023, we had $780 million in total available liquidity, made up of cash and cash equivalents. We had $430 million of total debt, net, of which $237 million is short-term. Our total debt, net is comprised of our $270 million pre-delivery payment (“PDP”) facility (“PDP Financing Facility”), $80 million pre-purchased miles facility with Barclays Bank Delaware (“Barclays”), $66 million in 10-year, low-interest loans from the Treasury (the “PSP Promissory Notes”) and $17 million in secured indebtedness for our headquarters building, partially offset by $3 million in deferred debt acquisition costs and other discounts.

On February 2, 2022, we repaid the Treasury Loan, which included the $150 million principal balance along with accrued interest and associated fees of $1 million. As a result, we recognized a $7 million non-cash charge from the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs associated with the Treasury Loan for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

In connection with the PSP Promissory Notes and Treasury Loan, we issued to the Treasury warrants to purchase 3,117,940 shares of our common stock at a weighted-average price of $6.95 per share. We have the intent and ability to settle the warrants issued to the Treasury in common shares and we have classified the warrant liability to additional paid-in-capital on our condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Treasury has not exercised any warrants as of June 30, 2023.

We continue to monitor our covenant compliance with various parties, including, but not limited to, our lenders and credit card processors. As of the date of this report, we are in compliance with all of our covenants.

Use of Cash and Future Obligations

We expect to meet our cash requirements for the next twelve months through use of our available cash and cash equivalents, our PDP Financing Facility and cash flows from operating activities. We expect to meet our long-term cash requirements with cash flows from operating and financing activities, including, but not limited to, potential future borrowings on our PDP Financing Facility and/or potential issuances of debt or equity. Our primary uses of cash are for working capital, aircraft PDPs, debt repayments and capital expenditures.

Our single largest capital commitment relates to the acquisition of aircraft. As of June 30, 2023, we operated all of our 126 aircraft under operating leases. PDPs relating to future deliveries under our agreement with Airbus are required at various times prior to each aircraft’s delivery date. As of June 30, 2023, we had $380 million of PDPs held by Airbus which have been partially financed by our PDP Financing Facility. As of June 30, 2023, our PDP Financing Facility, which allows us to draw up to an aggregate of $270 million, had $270 million outstanding. As of June 30, 2023, we had a firm obligation to purchase 217 A320neo family aircraft and 17 additional spare engines to be delivered by 2029. Of our aircraft commitments, four had committed operating leases for 2023 deliveries, and we are evaluating financing options for the remaining aircraft. As of June 30, 2023, we had signed lease agreements with two of our leasing partners to add ten additional A321neo aircraft through direct leases. Five deliveries occurred in the six months ended June 30, 2023, with the remaining five deliveries continuing into the third quarter of 2023, based on the latest delivery schedule. These direct lease aircraft are not included in the 217 aircraft subject to the purchase agreements with Airbus discussed above.

Additionally, we are required by some of our aircraft lease agreements to pay maintenance reserves to our respective aircraft lessors in advance of the performance of major maintenance activities; these payments act as collateral for the lessors to ensure aircraft are returned in the agreed upon condition at the end of the lease period. Qualifying payments that are expected to be recovered from lessors are recorded as aircraft maintenance deposits on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we made $9 million and $10 million, respectively, in maintenance deposit payments to our lessors. As of June 30, 2023, we had $109 million in recoverable aircraft maintenance deposits on our condensed consolidated balance sheet, of which $24 million was included in accounts receivable because the eligible maintenance had been performed and the remaining $85 million was included within aircraft maintenance deposits.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, net cash used in operating activities totaled $34 million, which was driven by $79 million of outflows from changes in operating assets and liabilities and non-cash adjustments totaling $13 million, partially offset by $58 million of net income.

The $79 million of outflows from changes in operating assets and liabilities include:

•$93 million increase in other long-term assets driven by increases in capitalized maintenance, prepaid maintenance, prepaid bonuses and capitalized interest;

•$60 million decrease in other liabilities driven primarily by leased aircraft return payments and decreased return costs, and other related accruals; and

•$9 million increase in aircraft maintenance deposits; partially offset by

•$40 million increase in our air traffic liability;

•$28 million decrease in accounts receivable due to station and credit card receivables;

•$9 million decrease in supplies and other current assets; and

•$6 million increase in accounts payable.

Our net income of $58 million was also adjusted by the following non-cash items to arrive at cash used in operating activities:

•$57 million gain recognized on sale-leaseback transactions; partially offset by

•$23 million depreciation and amortization;

•$13 million deferred tax expense;

•$7 million stock-based compensation expense; and

•$1 million in amortization of swaption cash flow hedges, net of tax.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, net cash used in operating activities totaled $67 million, which was driven by a $108 million net loss and non-cash adjustments totaling $30 million, partially offset by inflows from changes in operating assets and liabilities of $71 million.

The $71 million of inflows from changes in operating assets and liabilities include:

•$99 million increase in our air traffic liability as a result of increased bookings;

•$56 million increase in other liabilities driven by growth in the business, reflected primarily through increases in our accrued fuel of $30 million, leased aircraft return costs of $30 million and passenger tax accounts of $26 million, partially offset by a $26 million payment to FAPAInvest LLC for their phantom equity units; and

41

•$8 million increase in accounts payable; partially offset by

•$42 million increase in other long-term assets driven by increases in deferred taxes and prepaid maintenance;

•$34 million increase in supplies and other current assets driven by growth in the business, including increased fuel balances;

•$10 million increase in aircraft maintenance deposits; and

•$6 million increase in accounts receivable driven by increases in bookings.

Our net loss of $108 million was also adjusted by the following non-cash items to arrive at cash used in operating activities:

•$45 million deferred tax benefits; and

•$28 million gain recognized on sale-leaseback transactions; partially offset by

•$28 million depreciation and amortization;

•$7 million losses from the extinguishment of debt;

•$7 million stock-based compensation expense; and

•$1 million in amortization of swaption cash flow hedges, net of tax.

As of June 30, 2023, we did not have any other off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

•$9 million net outflows for PDP activity; and

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, net cash used in investing activities totaled $57 million, driven by:

•$41 million net payments for pre-delivery deposit activity;

•$14 million cash outflows for capital expenditures; and

•$2 million cash outflows relating to other investing activity.

Financing Activities

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, net cash provided by financing activities was $86 million, primarily driven by:

•$89 million cash inflows from sale-leaseback transactions related to A320neo family aircraft and spare engines delivered during the six months ended June 30, 2023; and

•$52 million cash proceeds from debt issuances, consisting of $44 million draws on our PDP Financing Facility and $9 million draws on our Barclays facility, net of issuance costs; partially offset by

•$51 million cash outflows from principal repayments on our PDP Financing Facility; and

•$5 million cash outflows for payments related to minimum tax withholdings of share-based awards.

42

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, net cash used in financing activities was $28 million, primarily driven by:

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are subject to market risks in the ordinary course of our business. These risks include commodity price risk, with respect to aircraft fuel, as well as interest rate risk, specifically with respect to our floating rate obligations and interest rate swaps. The adverse effects of changes in these markets could pose a potential loss as discussed below. The sensitivity analysis provided does not consider the effects that such adverse changes may have on overall economic activity, nor does it consider additional actions we may take to mitigate our exposure to such changes. Actual results may differ.

Aircraft Fuel. Our results of operations can vary materially due to changes in the price and availability of aircraft fuel and are also impacted by the number of aircraft in use and the number of flights we operate. Aircraft fuel represented approximately 27%, 30%, 37% and 33% of total operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Unexpected changes in the pricing of aircraft fuel or a shortage or disruption in the supply could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Based on our fuel consumption for the 12 months ended June 30, 2023, a hypothetical 10% increase in the average price per gallon of aircraft fuel would have increased aircraft fuel expense by approximately $115 million.

Interest Rates. We are subject to market risk associated with changing interest rates, due to Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) based interest rates on our PDP Financing Facility and our floating rate building note and Effective Federal Funds Rate ("EFFR") based interest rates on our affinity card advance purchase of mileage credits. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, as applied to our average debt balances, a hypothetical increase of 100 basis points in average annual interest rates on our variable-rate debt would have increased our annual interest expense by $4 million.

We are exposed to interest rate risk through aircraft lease contracts for the time period between agreement of terms and commencement of the lease, where portions of the rental payments are adjusted and become fixed based on swap rates. As part of our risk management program, we enter into contracts in order to limit the exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we did not enter into any swaps and, therefore, paid no upfront premiums for options. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we paid upfront premiums of $9 million for the option to enter into and exercise cash-settled swaps with a forward starting effective date for seven of our future aircraft deliveries. As of June 30, 2023, we had hedged $295 million in aircraft rent payments for seven aircraft and two engines to be delivered by the end of 2023.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2023. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, refers to the controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on such evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

46

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the three months ended June 30, 2023, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

47

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We believe the ultimate outcome of such lawsuits, proceedings and reviews is not reasonably likely, individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

There have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" contained in our 2022 Annual Report. Investors are urged to review such risk factors carefully.

(h)    For the avoidance of doubt: (i) if multiple Members are Parties to the Agreement, termination or expiration of the Agreement with respect to one Member will not automatically result in termination of the Agreement with respect to other Members; (ii) if Elavon is a Party to the Agreement, termination or expiration of the Agreement with respect to Professional Services will not automatically result in termination of the Agreement with respect to Processing Services; and (iii) if Elavon is a Party to the Agreement, termination or expiration of the Agreement with respect to Processing Services will result in automatic termination of the Agreement with respect to all Professional Services.

(i)    Provider may modify the Services (other than Processing Services) or particular components of the Services (other than Processing Services) from time to time and will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify Company of any material modifications.

14.    Disclaimer of Warranties. THIS AGREEMENT IS A SERVICE AGREEMENT, AND EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY STATED IN THE AGREEMENT, (A) THE SERVICES AND PROVIDER MATERIALS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS,” (B) COMPANY AND PROVIDER DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER RESPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, AND ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES REGARDING THE SERVICES, PROVIDER MATERIALS, EQUIPMENT, SOFTWARE, DOCUMENTATION, AND COMPANY’S USE OF THIRD-PARTY SERVICES, EQUIPMENT, SOFTWARE, OR DATA TRANSMITTED IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, ACCURACY, SATISFACTORY QUALITY, TITLE, SECURITY, NONINFRINGEMENT, UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE USE, AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY ARISING FROM COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, COURSE OF DEALING, USAGE OR TRADE.

15.    Limitation of Liability.

15.1.    Neither party or its agents, officers, directors, or employees will be liable to the other party for indirect, exemplary, punitive, special, consequential or other speculative damages in connection with the Agreement under any theory of law or equity (whether in contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, by statute, or otherwise); provided, that nothing in this Section 15.1 shall limit Company’s liability for any Early Termination Fee.

15.2.    Company acknowledges that fees for the Services are very small in relation to the funds conditionally credited to Company for Transactions, and, consequently, Provider’s willingness to provide these Services is based on the liability limitations contained in the Agreement. Therefore, Provider’s aggregate liability for any Losses, regardless of the form of action, arising out of the Agreement or Provider’s performance or non-performance of Services under any theory of law or equity (whether in contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, by statute, or otherwise), will not exceed, in the aggregate, the greater of (a) [***], and (b) [***].

15.3.    Notwithstanding the limitations set forth in Section 15.2 and the disclaimers in Section 15.1, Provider will be liable to Company for Company’s documented and incurred Provider Data Breach Losses, up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the greater of (a) [***], and (b) [***]. The foregoing limitation will not apply to Losses arising out of Elavon’s gross negligence, willful misconduct, or fraud. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING IN THE AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, SECTION 7.2(c) AND THIS SECTION 15.3 SET FORTH COMPANY’S EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AND THE SOLE AND COMPLETE LIABILITY OF PROVIDER WITH RESPECT TO DAMAGES, PENALTIES, COSTS, EXPENSES, OR LOSSES ARISING FROM A DATA BREACH.

Master Services Agreement (v.1.27.22) 21

or other authority, unless otherwise required by law.

Calculation and payment of amounts paid or reimbursed by Company under this Section 17.6 shall be included in the determination of Net Activity.

17.7.    Provider may debit amounts due from Company to Provider hereunder from the Settlement Account. If such debit does not fully reimburse Provider for the amount owed, Company will promptly pay Provider such amount upon demand.

17.8.    Each Provider shall have the right to deduct, set off against, or recoup from the amount of any reimbursement to such Provider hereunder from any payment otherwise due to Company from any Provider under the Agreement, regardless of whether the amount of such reimbursement and the amount of such payment are denominated in the same currency. If Provider is unable to so collect such amount, Company shall pay Provider on demand, the full amount or any undisputed and uncollected part thereof. Provider, at its option, may apply, set off against or recoup from the Deposit amount (if any) such amount necessary to satisfy Company’s obligations hereunder, regardless of whether the Company’s obligations are owed to the Provider that established or maintains the Deposit and regardless of whether the Deposit or any portion thereof are denominated in the same currency. Where any deduction, recoupment or set off requires the conversion of one currency into another, Provider shall be entitled to effect such conversion in accordance with its prevailing practice and Company shall bear all exchange risks, losses, commissions and other bank charges which may thereafter arise. In the case of any payment made to a third party for which Company reimbursed Provider, Company may choose to recover the amount involved or otherwise resolve the cause of the reimbursement in its sole discretion; provided, that, Provider shall have no obligation to recover such amount or take any other actions relating thereto. Without limiting the foregoing, Company acknowledges that Reserved Funds are funds provisionally credited to Provider pursuant to the Payment Network Regulations, subject to Chargeback as provided therein, and that pursuant to the Exposure Protection Schedule such funds will not be credited (provisionally or otherwise) to Company but will be held by Provider subject to subsequent credit as provided in the Exposure Protection Schedule and are subject to Chargeback in accordance with the Payment Network Regulations as such Payment Network Regulations may be applied by the applicable Payment Network.

(c)    Sales Records submitted to Provider will be credited to Net Activity only after expiration of the Settlement Period, if any, for such Sales Records.

(d)    Subject to any rights of Provider to retain and hold funds pursuant to the Agreement (including, without limitation, pursuant to the Exposure Protection Schedule), Provider will deposit, or cause to be deposited, on each Business Day, via electronic funds transfer or any other form of funds transfer acceptable to Provider in its sole discretion, into the applicable Settlement Account for each applicable currency, an amount equal to the amount of Net Activity relating to such currency for each Business Day.

(e)    At any time that the aggregate amount of Net Activity results in an amount due to Provider, the aggregate amount due may be deducted, recouped or set off from amounts subsequently payable to Company under the Agreement on account of Sales Records irrespective of the currency in which payment to Company is to be made; provided, that, Provider may, at its option (i) require an immediate wire transfer from Company in the amount due, or (ii) apply, set off against or recoup from any Deposit maintained pursuant to the Agreement the amount due from Company under the Agreement. Company acknowledges that the Agreement is a “net payment agreement” and that the right of Provider to net out obligations due from Company under the Agreement from amounts payable to Company hereunder (including from or as represented by the Deposit amount) is a right of recoupment. Company further acknowledges that Provider has entered into the Agreement in reliance upon such right.

(f)    Amounts deposited in a Settlement Account or otherwise credited to Company (including, without limitation, amounts credited against Company’s obligations to Provider for fees, costs and expenses hereunder) in respect of any Sales Record pursuant to the Agreement and Company’s right to payment of Reserved Funds shall be provisional until the payment made to Provider by the Card Network in respect of such Sales Record shall become final (i.e., all rights of Chargeback or other rights of the Cardholder or Issuer to obtain reimbursement of such payment from Provider shall have expired).

Company may designate a third person as its agent to deliver to Provider or directly to Card Networks Transactions captured at the point of sale by such agent. If Company elects to designate such an agent, Company must provide Provider prior written notice of such election. Company understands and agrees that Provider is responsible to make payment to Company for only those Transaction amounts delivered by such agent to the Card Networks, less amounts withheld by Provider pursuant to the Agreement, and Company is responsible for any failure by such agent to comply with any Payment Network Regulations, including any such failure that results in a Chargeback.

33.1.    When Sales Records and Credit Records are submitted to Provider, other than Sales Records and Credit Records originating from Terminals, and processed by Provider’s Terminal processor, such Sales Records and Credit Records shall be submitted to Provider by means of a summary of all Travel Costs by electronic transmission compatible with the computer system of Provider and shall comply with Section 32.2 of the Agreement. Each such electronic transmission shall be made in the form of the Settlement File or any other format acceptable to Provider in its sole discretion. Company agrees that: (i) Company will not (and will ensure any third party services providers it uses with respect to data capture, electronic submission or authorization will not) change the method or format of electronic submissions (including without limitation the code or data value types associated with electronic submission) without first providing written notice to Provider of the same and obtaining Provider’s prior consent and (ii) if Company requests a change in the method or format with respect to such electronic submissions, Provider may require regression testing or other testing of such electronic submissions (in the requested format) prior to consenting to such change in format, and Company will be responsible for Provider’s costs and expenses (including fees for Provider’s employees at their standard rates) in connection therewith; provided that such testing shall not constitute consent to such format change and shall not in any way limit Provider’s right to withhold consent with respect to such format change.

If an electronic transmission of Travel Costs does not meet the requirements of the approved format, Provider shall use reasonable efforts to advise Company within eight hours of receipt of same, provided that with respect to electronic transmissions that do not meet the requirements of the approved format due to Company’s failure to comply with its obligations in Section 33.1 regarding changes to the method or format of electronic transmission, Provider shall only be required to use reasonable efforts to advise Company of same promptly after Provider becomes aware that electronic transmissions that do not meet the requirements of the approved format. Any electronic transmission that does meet the requirement of the approved format shall be deemed accepted by Provider.

33.2.    Any acceptance by Provider of an electronic transmission of Travel Costs that does not comply with the appropriate format or, if in the appropriate format, does not contain the information in respect to each Travel Cost summarized therein required by the terms of the Agreement, shall not constitute a waiver of, or preclude Provider from exercising, the right of Chargeback.

34.    Returned Unused Travel Costs; Credit Adjustment.

34.1.    Company will maintain and apply on a consistent basis a policy for the return or exchange of tickets or other Travel Costs for credit adjustments that Company, in its reasonable discretion, deems to be fair and uniform.

34.2.    Company will make no cash refunds in connection with such credit adjustments, except to the extent it is required to effect a cash refund pursuant to the requirements of Laws.

35.3.    So long as a Chargeback claim is in the process of dispute resolution pursuant to the Payment Network Regulations, Company shall not make any other claim or take any proceedings against the Cardholder in relation to the related Transaction or the underlying contract of sale or service.

35.4.    In connection with the processing of Chargeback claims, Provider shall be entitled to rely and act on any agreements, requests, instructions, permissions, approvals, demands or other communications given on behalf of Company (whether orally, via email or in writing) and Provider shall not be liable to Company for any loss or damage incurred or suffered by it as a result of such action.

35.5.    Subject to compliance with any applicable data processing laws and Section 7.2(d), Provider may provide Cardholder’s name and address for each Chargeback when it is included in the Cardholder’s documentation received by Provider.

35.6.    Company acknowledges and agrees that the “Chargeback Handling Fee” described in the Fee Schedule constitutes reasonable compensation to Provider for the services provided by Provider in connection with the handling of Chargebacks, taking into account, among other things, the costs

Master Services Agreement (v.1.27.22) 29

and expenses, whether direct or indirect, and whether out-of-pocket or attributable to an increased administrative burden, incurred or suffered by Provider as a result of such Chargeback activity.

36.    Submission Currency, Settlement Currency. All Transactions under the Agreement shall be submitted to Provider in a Submission Currency acceptable to the Provider and the applicable Card Network, and all settlements with respect to such Transactions shall be in the Submission Currency, unless Multi-Currency Conversion or another currency conversion agreement applies. If Multi-Currency Conversion or another currency conversion agreement applies, Company may request that Provider permit that Applicable Transactions be settled with a different Settlement Currency and such Transactions will only be settled in a different Settlement Currency if Provider is able to accommodate such request and affirmatively agrees to such settlement process.

37.    Currency Conversion. If the Provider permits settlement with a Settlement Currency that is different than the Submission Currency, Company acknowledges and agrees that a currency conversion would be required for such Transactions and that for each such currency conversion, in addition to all other processing fees payable for such Transaction: (1) for any Transaction for which Multi-Currency Conversion services are provided, if any, Provider will employ the methodology described in the schedule regarding Multi-Currency Conversion; (2) for any other Transaction, Provider will employ its then applicable exchange rate methodology in making any such currency conversion and the costs associated with such conversion would be passed on to Company.

Master Services Agreement (v.1.27.22) 34

Company to reflect in its system any change to Company’s PAD Account. If Company changes the PAD Account, Company agrees that it is responsible for all costs Provider incurs in connection with Company’s decision to change the PAD Account. Company may revoke the PAD authorization upon [***] prior written notice to Provider, but any such revocation will constitute a material breach of the Agreement.

Company has certain recourse rights if any debit does not comply with the Agreement.

To obtain more information on Company’s recourse rights, Company may contact its financial institution or visit www.payments.ca.

44.4.    In addition to Company’s other termination rights in the Agreement, the Agreement may be terminated by Company without penalty if Provider notifies Company of a fee increase, the introduction of a new fee or a reduction in applicable interchange rates; provided that Company may not terminate the Agreement in connection with new fees or fee increases made in accordance with pre-determined fee schedules, if any.

If any such tax (other than taxes based on Provider’s income) is found to be applicable, the appropriate amount of tax shall be added to and shall be payable by Company to Provider at the same time and upon the same terms as apply to the fees and other charges.

44.6.    The Parties hereby acknowledge that they have required the Agreement and all related documents to be drawn up in the English language. Les parties reconnaissent avoir demandé que le présent contrat ainsi que tous les documents qui s’y rattachent soient rédigés en langue anglaise.

6.    Company shall: (a) provide Provider reasonable and monitored access to ticketing and other agreed internal administration systems to support Provider’s provision of Chargeback Services, provided Provider and Company may alter or enhance system access and processes to support the Chargeback Services from time to time by mutual agreement; (b) configure access rights for Provider Chargeback Services team to Company’s ticketing and other systems to permit chargeback resolution and representment processes to take place; (c) ensure systems are consistently available to Provider employees and agents providing the Chargeback Services; and (d) ensure system access rights are defined in a manner to permit access to travel data for all card products (e.g. VISA and MasterCard) supported by the Chargeback Services.

7.    Company shall pay Provider its fees and reimburse it for its expenses in providing the Chargeback Services in immediately available funds when such amounts are assessed. [***]

8.    Except for services performed by Company itself, as long as Chargeback Services are provided by Provider, Provider shall be the exclusive provider of such services to Company, and Company shall not enter into arrangements to acquire the same or substantially similar services from other third parties. Company may in any event utilize any provider of digital identity services that is not directly involved with chargeback disputes, e.g. Visa Verifi or Mastercard Ethoca). For the avoidance of doubt, Company may perform its own chargeback services. Notwithstanding the aforesaid, Provider reserves the right to enter into arrangements to provide the same, competing or different services to other customers, including competitors of Company.

9.    Notwithstanding the foregoing, Company shall have the right to terminate the Chargeback Services provided by Provider on [***] prior written notice to Company; provided, however, that any such notice shall be provided by Company’s Chief Financial Officer or Treasurer.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and include the accounts of Frontier Group Holdings, Inc. (“FGHI” or the “Company”) and its wholly-owned direct and indirect subsidiaries, including Frontier Airlines Holdings, Inc. (“FAH”) and Frontier Airlines, Inc. (“Frontier”). All wholly-owned subsidiaries are consolidated, with all intercompany transactions and balances being eliminated.

The Company is an ultra low-cost, low-fare airline headquartered in Denver, Colorado that offers flights throughout the United States and to select international destinations in the Americas, serving approximately 90 airports.

The Company is managed as a single business unit that provides air transportation for passengers. Management has concluded there is only one reportable segment.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and reflect all normal recurring adjustments which management believes are necessary to fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the respective periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for Form 10-Q. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, which was filed with the SEC on February 22, 2023 (the “2022 Annual Report”).

The interim results reflected in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for other interim periods or for the full year. The air transportation business is subject to significant seasonal fluctuations and is volatile and highly affected by economic cycles and trends.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]

Revenue Recognition

Revenue RecognitionAs of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s air traffic liability balance was $356 million and $328 million, respectively, which includes amounts classified in other long-term liabilities. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, 89% of the air traffic liability as of December 31, 2022 was recognized as passenger revenue within the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. Of the air traffic liability balances as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $72 million and $60 million, respectively, was related to unearned membership fees.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized $10 million, $20 million, $23 million and $45 million, respectively, in passenger revenues within the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations, related to expected and actual expiration of customer rights to book future travel.

Operating revenues are comprised of passenger revenues, which includes fare and non-fare passenger revenues, and other revenues. Disaggregated operating revenues are as follows (in millions):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2023		2022		2023		2022
Passenger revenues:

The Company is managed as a single business unit that provides air transportation for passengers. Operating revenues by principal geographic region, as defined by the U.S. Department of Transportation (the “DOT”), are as follows (in millions):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2023		2022		2023		2022

Latin America	90		90		157		149
Total operating revenues	$	967	$	909	$	1,815	$	1,514

The Company attributes operating revenues by geographic region based upon the origin and destination of each passenger flight segment. The Company’s tangible assets consist primarily of flight equipment, which are mobile across geographic markets. Accordingly, assets are not allocated to specific geographic regions.

Frequent Flyer Program

The Company’s Frontier Miles frequent flyer program provides frequent flyer travel awards to program members based on accumulated mileage credits. Mileage credits are generally accumulated as a result of travel, purchases using the co-branded credit card and purchases from other participating partners. The Company defers revenue for mileage credits earned by passengers under its Frontier Miles program based on the equivalent ticket value a passenger receives by redeeming mileage credits for a ticket rather than paying cash.

The Company has a credit card affinity agreement with its credit card partner, Barclays Bank Delaware (“Barclays”), through 2029, which provides for joint marketing, grants certain benefits to co-branded credit cardholders (“Cardholders”) and allows Barclays to market using the Company’s customer database. Cardholders earn mileage credits under the Frontier Miles program and the Company sells mileage credits at agreed-upon rates to Barclays and earns fees from Barclays for the acquisition, retention and use of the co-branded credit card by Cardholders.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Financial Derivative Instruments and Risk Management

Financial Derivative Instruments and Risk Management

The Company may be exposed to interest rate risk through aircraft and spare engine lease contracts for the time period between agreement of terms and commencement of the lease, when portions of rental payments can be adjusted and become fixed based on the swap rate. As part of its risk management program, the Company enters into contracts in order to limit the exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. During each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company did not enter into any swaps and, therefore, paid no upfront premiums. During each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company paid upfront premiums of $9 million for the option to enter into and exercise cash-settled swaps with a forward starting effective date for seven of the Company’s future aircraft deliveries. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had hedged the interest rate exposure on $295 million of total aircraft and spare engine rent for seven aircraft and two engines to be delivered by the end of 2023.

Additionally, the Company is exposed to credit losses in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to its derivative instruments but does not presently expect that any of its counterparties will fail to meet their respective obligations. The amount of such credit exposure is generally the fair value of the Company’s outstanding contracts in a receivable position. To manage credit risks, the Company selects counterparties based on credit assessments and monitors the market position with each counterparty.

The assets associated with the Company’s derivative instruments are presented on a gross basis and include upfront premiums paid. These assets are recorded as a component of other current assets on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. There were $5 million and $24 million of assets outstanding as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

The following table summarizes the effect of interest rate derivative instruments reflected in aircraft rent expense within the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations (in millions):

__________________

(a)The Company, through an affiliate, entered into the pre-delivery payment (“PDP”) facility with Citibank, N.A., as facility agent, in December 2014 (as amended from time to time, the “PDP Financing Facility”). The PDP Financing Facility is primarily collateralized by the Company’s purchase agreement for Airbus A320 family aircraft deliveries (see Note 9) through the term of the facility, which extends through December 2025. As of June 30, 2023, the PDP Financing Facility allows for total commitments of up to $270 million.

Interest is paid every 90 days based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus a margin for each individual tranche. The PDP Financing Facility consists of separate loans for each PDP aircraft. Each separate loan matures upon the earlier of (i) delivery of that aircraft to the Company by Airbus, (ii) the date one month following the last day of the scheduled delivery month of such aircraft and (iii) if there is a delay in delivery of aircraft, depending on the cause of the delivery delay, up to six months following the last day of the scheduled delivery month of such aircraft. The PDP Financing Facility will be repaid periodically according to the preceding sentence, with the last scheduled delivery of aircraft expected to be in the fourth quarter of 2025.

(b)Represents a note with a commercial bank related to the Company’s headquarters building. Under the terms of the note, the Company began repaying the outstanding principal balance with quarterly payments beginning in January 2022 and continuing until the maturity date in December 2023. On the maturity date, one final balloon payment will be made to cover all unpaid principal, accrued unpaid interest and other amounts due. The interest rate of one-month SOFR plus a margin is payable monthly.

(c)The Company entered into an agreement with Barclays in 2003 which, as amended, provides for joint marketing, grants certain benefits to Cardholders and allows Barclays to market using the Company’s customer database, through 2029. Cardholders earn mileage credits under the Frontier Miles program and the Company sells mileage credits at agreed-upon rates to Barclays and earns fees from Barclays for the acquisition, retention and use of the co-branded credit card by Cardholders. In addition, Barclays will pre-purchase miles if the Company meets certain conditions precedent. The pre-purchased miles facility amount is to be reset on January 15 of each calendar year through, and including, January 15, 2028, based on the aggregate amount of fees payable by Barclays to the Company on a calendar year basis, up to an aggregate maximum facility amount of $200 million. The Company pays interest on a monthly basis, which is based on a one-month Effective Federal Funds Rate ("EFFR") plus a margin. Beginning March 31, 2028, the facility is scheduled to be repaid in 12 equal monthly installments.

(d)As a result of the Company’s participation in the payroll support programs offered by the U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”), the Company obtained a series of 10-year, low-interest loans from the Treasury (collectively, the “PSP Promissory Notes”) that are due between 2030 to 2031. The PSP Promissory Notes include an annual interest rate of 1.00% for the first five years and the SOFR plus 2.00% in the final five years, with bi-annual interest payments. The loans can be prepaid at par at any time without incurring a penalty.

In connection with the term loan facility entered into with the Treasury on September 28, 2020 (the “Treasury Loan”), which was repaid in full on February 2, 2022, and the PSP Promissory Notes, the Company issued to the Treasury warrants to purchase 3,117,940 shares of FGHI common stock at a weighted-average price of $6.95 per share. The Treasury has not exercised any warrants as of June 30, 2023.

Cash payments for interest related to debt were $12 million and $5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

The Company has caused standby letters of credit and surety bonds to be issued to various airport authorities and vendors that are collateralized by a portion of the Company’s property and equipment and, as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company did not have any outstanding letters of credit that were drawn upon.

As of June 30, 2023, future maturities of debt are payable as follows (in millions):

Operating Leases

Leases [Abstract]

Operating Leases

Operating Leases

The Company leases property and equipment under operating leases. For leases with initial terms greater than 12 months, the related operating lease right-of-use asset and corresponding operating lease liability are recorded at the present value of lease payments over the term on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. Some leases include rental escalation clauses, renewal options, termination options and/or other items that cause variability that are factored into the determination of lease payments, when appropriate. The Company does not separate lease and non-lease components of contracts, except for certain flight training equipment, for which consideration is allocated between lease and non-lease components.

Aircraft

As of June 30, 2023, the Company leased 126 aircraft with remaining terms ranging from one month to 12 years, all of which are under operating leases and are included within operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. In addition, as of June 30, 2023, the Company leased 32 spare engines which are all under operating leases, with the remaining term ranging from one month to 12 years. As of June 30, 2023, the lease rates for 13 of the engines depend on usage-based metrics which are variable and, as such, these leases are not recorded on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets as operating lease right-of-use assets or as operating lease liabilities.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company executed sale-leaseback transactions with third-party lessors for one, four, three and five new Airbus A320neo family aircraft, respectively, and also entered into direct leases for two and five new Airbus A320neo family aircraft during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. The Company did not enter into any direct leases during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. Additionally, the Company completed sale-leaseback transactions for one and two engines during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, and two engines for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. All of the leases from the sale-leaseback transactions are accounted for as operating leases. The Company recognized net sale-leaseback gains from those sale-leaseback transactions of $17 million, $57 million, $21 million and $28 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, which are included as a component of other operating expenses within the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Aircraft Rent Expense and Maintenance Obligations

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, aircraft rent expense was $148 million, $279 million, $133 million and $261 million respectively. Aircraft rent expense includes supplemental rent, which is made up of maintenance reserves paid or to be paid that are not probable of being reimbursed and probable lease return condition obligations. Supplemental rent expense (benefit) for maintenance-related reserves that were deemed non-recoverable, and any impact from changes in those estimates, was ($2 million) for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and ($1 million) for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. The portion of supplemental rent expense related to probable lease return condition obligations was $22 million, $24 million, $18 million and $33 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s total leased aircraft return cost liability was $58 million and $102 million, respectively, which are reflected in other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities within the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Additionally, certain of the Company’s aircraft lease agreements require the Company to pay maintenance reserves to aircraft lessors to be held as collateral in advance of the Company’s required performance of major maintenance activities. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had aircraft maintenance deposits that are expected to be recoverable of $109 million and $117 million, respectively, on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets, of which $24 million and $12 million, respectively, are included in accounts receivable, net on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets as the eligible maintenance has been performed. The remaining $85 million and $105 million are included within aircraft maintenance deposits on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

A majority of these maintenance reserve payments are calculated based on a utilization measure, such as flight hours or cycles. Maintenance reserves collateralize the lessor for maintenance time run off the aircraft until the completion of the maintenance of the aircraft. As of June 30, 2023, fixed maintenance reserve payments for aircraft and spare engines, including estimated amounts for contractual price escalations, were expected to be $2 million for the remainder of 2023, $3 million per year for 2024 through 2026, $4 million for 2027 and $5 million thereafter, before consideration of reimbursements.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company extended the term for certain aircraft operating leases that were slated to expire in the fourth quarter of 2023. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded an $18 million benefit to aircraft rent in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations related to previously accrued lease return costs that were variable in nature and associated with the anticipated utilization and condition of the airframes and engines at original return date. Given the extension of these aircraft operating leases, such variable return costs are no longer probable of occurring.

Airport Facilities

The Company’s facility leases are primarily for space at approximately 90 airports that are primarily located in the United States. These leases are classified as operating leases and reflect the use of airport terminals, ticket counters, office space and maintenance facilities. Generally, this space is leased from government agencies that control the use of the airport. The majority of these leases are short-term in nature and renew on an evergreen basis. For these leases, the contractual term is used as the lease term. As of June 30, 2023, the remaining lease terms vary from one month to 12 years. At the majority of the U.S. airports, the lease rates depend on airport operating costs or use of the facilities and are reset at least annually, and because of the variable nature of the rates, these leases are not recorded on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities.

Other Ground Property and Equipment

The Company leases certain other assets such as flight training equipment, building space and various other equipment. Certain of the Company’s leases for other assets are deemed to contain fixed rental payments and, as such, are classified as operating leases and are recorded on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets as a right-of-use asset and liability. The remaining lease terms ranged from one month to nine years as of June 30, 2023.

Lease Costs

The table below presents certain information related to lease costs for operating leases during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 (in millions):

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company acquired, through new or modified operating leases, operating lease assets totaling $107 million, $338 million, $87 million and $148 million, respectively, which are included in operating lease right-of-use assets on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company paid cash of $130 million, $257 million, $119 million and $236 million, respectively, for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, 2,057,123 vested stock options were exercised with a weighted-average exercise price of $0.32 per share. As of June 30, 2023, the weighted-average exercise price of outstanding options was $2.60 per share.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, 1,507,011 restricted stock units were issued with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $11.86 per share. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, 1,162,274 restricted stock units vested, of which 417,894 restricted stock units were withheld to cover employees’ tax withholding obligations, with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $11.88 and $12.32 per share, respectively.

Phantom Equity Awards

On December 3, 2013, to give effect to the reorganization of the Company’s corporate structure, an agreement was reached to amend and restate a phantom equity agreement with the Company’s pilots. Under the terms of this agreement, when an amendment to the underlying collective bargaining agreement was approved, the Company’s pilots employed in June 2011 (the “Participating Pilots”), through their agent, FAPAInvest, LLC, received phantom equity units. Each unit represented the right to receive common stock or cash in connection with certain events, including a qualifying initial public offering, such stock to be distributed or cash paid to the Participating Pilots in 2020 and 2022 based on a predetermined formula. In accordance with the amended and restated phantom equity agreement, the obligation became fixed as of December 31, 2019 and was no longer subject to valuation adjustments. As of December 31, 2021, the remaining liability was $26 million and presented within other current liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the $26 million was fully paid.

Stockholders’ Equity

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had authorized common stock (voting), common stock (non-voting) and preferred stock of 750,000,000, 150,000,000 and 10,000,000 shares, respectively, of which only common stock (voting) were issued and outstanding. All classes of equity have a par value of $0.001 per share.

__________________

(a)    While the schedule presented reflects the contractual delivery dates as of June 30, 2023, the Company has recently experienced modest delays in the deliveries of Airbus aircraft which may persist in future periods.

The Company is party to certain aircraft purchase agreements with Airbus (as amended from time to time, the “Airbus Purchase Agreements”) pursuant to which, as of June 30, 2023, the Company had commitments to purchase an aggregate of 67 A320neo and 150 A321neo aircraft, with deliveries expected through 2029 per the latest delivery schedule. The Company has the option to convert 18 A320neo family aircraft to A321XLR family aircraft under certain terms and conditions. Since the option has not been exercised, this conversion right is not reflected in the table above.

The Airbus Purchase Agreements also provide for, among other things, varying purchase incentives for each aircraft type (e.g., A320neo versus A321neo), which are allocated proportionally by aircraft type over the remaining aircraft to be delivered so that each aircraft’s capitalized cost upon induction would be equal. Therefore, as cash paid for deliveries is greater than the capitalized cost due to the allocation of these purchase incentives, a deferred purchase incentive is recognized within other assets on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets, which will ultimately be offset by future deliveries of aircraft with lower cash payments than their associated capitalized cost.

In April 2022, the Company’s agreement with Pratt & Whitney, the provider of engines for certain of the Company’s undelivered aircraft order book, was amended to include additional spare engine commitments and adjust the timing of remaining deliveries, which has been reflected in the table above.

As of June 30, 2023, purchase commitments for these aircraft and engines, including estimated amounts for contractual price escalations and PDPs, consisted of the following:

(in millions)	Total
Remainder of 2023	$	417
2024	1,448
2025	2,437
2026	2,357
2027	2,447
Thereafter	3,757
Total	$	12,863

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had signed lease agreements with two of its leasing partners to add ten additional A321neo aircraft through direct leases. Five of the aircraft have been delivered, with two such direct lease deliveries having occurred in the second quarter of 2023, and the remaining five continuing into the third quarter of 2023, based on the latest delivery schedule. None of these five undelivered aircraft are reflected in the table above given these are not purchase orders.

Litigation and Other Contingencies

The Company is subject to commercial litigation claims and to administrative and regulatory proceedings and reviews that may be asserted or maintained from time to time. The Company regularly evaluates the status of such matters to assess whether a loss is probable and reasonably estimable in determining whether an accrual is appropriate. Furthermore, in determining whether disclosure is appropriate, the Company evaluates each matter to assess if there is at least a reasonable possibility that a loss or additional losses may have been incurred and whether an estimate of possible loss or range of loss can be made. The Company believes the ultimate outcome of such lawsuits, proceedings and reviews will not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on its condensed consolidated financial position, liquidity or results of operations and that the Company’s current accruals cover matters where loss is deemed probable and can be reasonably estimated.

The ultimate outcome of legal actions is unpredictable and can be subject to significant uncertainties, and it is difficult to determine whether any loss is probable or even possible. Additionally, it is also difficult to estimate the amount of loss and there may be matters for which a loss is probable or reasonably possible but not currently estimable. Thus, actual losses may be in excess of any recorded liability or the range of reasonably possible loss.

Employees

The Company has seven union-represented employee groups that together represented approximately 86% of all employees as of June 30, 2023. The table below sets forth the Company’s employee groups and status of the collective bargaining agreements as of June 30, 2023:

			Percentage of Workforce
Employee Group	Representative	Amendable Date(a)	June 30, 2023
Pilots	Air Line Pilots Association (ALPA)	January 2024	31%
Flight Attendants	Association of Flight Attendants (AFA-CWA)	May 2024	49%
Aircraft Technicians	International Brotherhood of Teamsters (IBT)	May 2025	4%
Aircraft Appearance Agents	IBT	October 2023	1%
Dispatchers	Transport Workers Union (TWU)	December 2021(b)	1%
Material Specialists	IBT	March 2022(b)	<1%
Maintenance Controllers	IBT	October 2023	<1%

__________________

(a)    Subject to standard early opener provisions.

(b)    The Company’s collective bargaining agreements with its dispatchers and material specialists, represented by TWU and IBT, respectively, were still amendable as of June 30, 2023 and negotiations are ongoing; however, each agreement is operating under its current arrangement until an amendment has been reached.

The Company is self-insured for health care claims, subject to a stop-loss policy, for eligible participating employees and qualified dependent medical and dental claims, subject to deductibles and limitations. The Company’s liabilities for claims incurred but not reported are determined based on an estimate of the ultimate aggregate liability for claims incurred. The estimate is calculated from actual claim rates and adjusted periodically as necessary. The Company had accrued $6 million and $5 million for health care claims estimated to be incurred but not yet paid, as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, which are included as a component of other current liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

General Indemnifications

The Company has various leases with respect to real property as well as various agreements among airlines relating to fuel consortia or fuel farms at airports. Under some of these contracts, the Company is party to joint and several liability regarding environmental damages. Under others, where the Company is a member of an LLC or other entity that contracts directly with the airport operator, liabilities are borne through the fuel consortia structure.

The Company’s aircraft, services, equipment lease and sale and financing agreements typically contain provisions requiring the Company, as the lessee, obligor or recipient of services, to indemnify the other parties to those agreements, including certain of those parties’ related persons, against virtually any liabilities that might arise from the use or operation of the aircraft or such other equipment. The Company believes that its insurance would cover most of its exposure to liabilities and related indemnities associated with the commercial real estate leases and aircraft, services, equipment lease and sale and financing agreements described above.

Certain of the Company’s aircraft and other financing transactions include provisions that require payments to preserve an expected economic return to the lenders if that economic return is diminished due to certain changes in law or regulations. In certain of these financing transactions and other agreements, the Company also bears the risk of certain changes in tax laws that would subject payments to non-U.S. entities to withholding taxes.

Certain of these indemnities survive the length of the related financing or lease. The Company cannot reasonably estimate the potential future payments under the indemnities and related provisions described above because it cannot predict (i) when and under what circumstances these provisions may be triggered, and (ii) the amount that would be payable if the provisions were triggered because the amounts would be based on facts and circumstances existing at such time.

Net Earnings (Loss) per Share

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Net Earnings (Loss) per Share

Net Earnings (Loss) per Share

Basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share are computed pursuant to the two-class method. Under the two-class method, the Company attributes net income to common stock and other participating rights (including those with vested share-based awards). Basic net earnings per share is calculated by taking net income, less earnings allocated to participating rights, divided by the basic weighted-average common stock outstanding. Net loss per share is calculated by taking net loss divided by basic weighted-average common stock outstanding as participating rights do not share in losses. In accordance with the two-class method, diluted net earnings per share is calculated using the more dilutive impact of the treasury-stock method or from reducing net income for the earnings allocated to participating rights.

The following table sets forth the computation of net earnings (loss) per share on a basic and diluted basis pursuant to the two-class method for the periods indicated (in millions, except for share and per share amounts):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,

Weighted-average common shares outstanding, basic	219,402,647		217,602,480		218,792,850		217,438,904

Effect of dilutive potential common shares	1,023,012		1,334,065		1,430,423		—
Weighted-average common shares outstanding, diluted	220,425,659		218,936,545		220,223,273		217,438,904
Net earnings (loss) per share, diluted	$	0.31	$	0.06	$	0.26	$	(0.49)

Approximately 2,886,151 and 2,264,024 shares were excluded from the computation of diluted shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, due to antidilutive effects. Approximately 2,284,417 shares were excluded from the computation of diluted shares for the three months ended June 30, 2022 due to antidilutive effects. Due to the net loss incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2022, diluted weighted-average shares outstanding are equal to basic weighted-average shares outstanding because the effect of all equity awards is anti-dilutive.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

Under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, disclosures relating to how fair value is determined for assets and liabilities are required, and a hierarchy for which these assets and liabilities must be grouped is established, based on significant levels of inputs, as follows:

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2—Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company utilizes several valuation techniques in order to assess the fair value of its financial assets and liabilities.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash are comprised of liquid money market funds, time deposits and cash, and are categorized as Level 1 instruments. The Company maintains cash with various high-quality financial institutions and holds restricted cash to secure medical claims paid. Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash are carried at cost, which management believes approximates fair value. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had less than $1 million of restricted cash.

Interest Rate Derivative Contracts

Interest rate derivative contracts are valued under an income approach based on data either readily observable in public markets, derived from public markets or provided by counterparties who regularly trade in public markets and, therefore, they are classified as Level 2 inputs. Given the swaptions will be cash-settled upon exercise and that the market value will be determined using overnight indexed swap (“OIS”) discounting, OIS discounting is applied to the income approach valuation.

Debt

The estimated fair value of the Company’s debt agreements has been determined to be Level 3 measurement, as certain inputs used to determine the fair value of these agreements are unobservable. The Company utilizes a discounted cash flow method to estimate the fair value of the Level 3 debt.

The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company’s debt are as follows (in millions):

	June 30, 2023				December 31, 2022
	Carrying Value		Estimated Fair Value		Carrying Value		Estimated Fair Value
Secured debt:
PDP Financing Facility	$	270	$	272	$	277	$	277
Floating rate building note	17		17		17		17
Unsecured debt:
Affinity card advance purchase of mileage credits	80		77		71		66
PSP Promissory Notes	66		55		66		52
Total debt	$	433	$	421	$	431	$	412

The tables below present disclosures about the fair value of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets (in millions):

		Fair Value Measurements as of June 30, 2023
Description	Balance Sheet Classification	Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Cash and cash equivalents	Cash and cash equivalents	$	780	$	780	$	—	$	—

Cash and cash equivalents	Cash and cash equivalents	$	761	$	761	$	—	$	—
Interest rate derivative contracts	Other current assets	$	24	$	—	$	24	$	—

The Company had no transfers of assets or liabilities between fair value hierarchy levels between December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2023.

The Proposed Merger with Spirit Airlines, Inc. (“Spirit”)

The Proposed Merger with Spirit Airlines, Inc. (“Spirit”)

On February 5, 2022, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Top Gun Acquisition Corp. (“Merger Sub”), a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and Spirit. The Merger Agreement provided that, among other things, the Merger Sub would be merged with and into Spirit (the “Merger”), with Spirit surviving the Merger and continuing as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. On July 27, 2022, the Company and Spirit mutually terminated the Merger Agreement.

The Company recorded less than $1 million and $1 million in expenses related to the proposed Merger within transaction and merger-related costs in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, which represented merger-related retention bonus expense for all eligible employees who were subject to CARES Act compensation restrictions. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded $9 million and $20 million, respectively, of expenses related to the proposed Merger within transaction and merger-related costs in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations. These costs included $4 million and $12 million, respectively, related to transaction costs, which include banking, legal and accounting fees, among others, charged in connection with the Merger, and $5 million and $8 million, respectively, of retention bonus expenses.

In the event that Spirit, within twelve months following the termination of the Merger Agreement, consummates an acquisition with another acquiror or enters into a definitive written agreement providing for an acquisition with another acquiror, which is ultimately consummated, the Company will be owed an additional $69 million, as provided for in the Merger Agreement.

Basis of PresentationThe condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”)

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and include the accounts of Frontier Group Holdings, Inc. (“FGHI” or the “Company”) and its wholly-owned direct and indirect subsidiaries, including Frontier Airlines Holdings, Inc. (“FAH”) and Frontier Airlines, Inc. (“Frontier”). All wholly-owned subsidiaries are consolidated, with all intercompany transactions and balances being eliminated.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Frequent Flyer Program

Frequent Flyer Program

The Company’s Frontier Miles frequent flyer program provides frequent flyer travel awards to program members based on accumulated mileage credits. Mileage credits are generally accumulated as a result of travel, purchases using the co-branded credit card and purchases from other participating partners. The Company defers revenue for mileage credits earned by passengers under its Frontier Miles program based on the equivalent ticket value a passenger receives by redeeming mileage credits for a ticket rather than paying cash.

The Company has a credit card affinity agreement with its credit card partner, Barclays Bank Delaware (“Barclays”), through 2029, which provides for joint marketing, grants certain benefits to co-branded credit cardholders (“Cardholders”) and allows Barclays to market using the Company’s customer database. Cardholders earn mileage credits under the Frontier Miles program and the Company sells mileage credits at agreed-upon rates to Barclays and earns fees from Barclays for the acquisition, retention and use of the co-branded credit card by Cardholders.

Operating Leases

The Company leases property and equipment under operating leases. For leases with initial terms greater than 12 months, the related operating lease right-of-use asset and corresponding operating lease liability are recorded at the present value of lease payments over the term on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. Some leases include rental escalation clauses, renewal options, termination options and/or other items that cause variability that are factored into the determination of lease payments, when appropriate. The Company does not separate lease and non-lease components of contracts, except for certain flight training equipment, for which consideration is allocated between lease and non-lease components.

Fair Value Measurement

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company utilizes several valuation techniques in order to assess the fair value of its financial assets and liabilities.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash are comprised of liquid money market funds, time deposits and cash, and are categorized as Level 1 instruments. The Company maintains cash with various high-quality financial institutions and holds restricted cash to secure medical claims paid. Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash are carried at cost, which management believes approximates fair value. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had less than $1 million of restricted cash.

Interest Rate Derivative Contracts

Interest rate derivative contracts are valued under an income approach based on data either readily observable in public markets, derived from public markets or provided by counterparties who regularly trade in public markets and, therefore, they are classified as Level 2 inputs. Given the swaptions will be cash-settled upon exercise and that the market value will be determined using overnight indexed swap (“OIS”) discounting, OIS discounting is applied to the income approach valuation.

Debt

The estimated fair value of the Company’s debt agreements has been determined to be Level 3 measurement, as certain inputs used to determine the fair value of these agreements are unobservable. The Company utilizes a discounted cash flow method to estimate the fair value of the Level 3 debt.

__________________

(a)The Company, through an affiliate, entered into the pre-delivery payment (“PDP”) facility with Citibank, N.A., as facility agent, in December 2014 (as amended from time to time, the “PDP Financing Facility”). The PDP Financing Facility is primarily collateralized by the Company’s purchase agreement for Airbus A320 family aircraft deliveries (see Note 9) through the term of the facility, which extends through December 2025. As of June 30, 2023, the PDP Financing Facility allows for total commitments of up to $270 million.

Interest is paid every 90 days based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus a margin for each individual tranche. The PDP Financing Facility consists of separate loans for each PDP aircraft. Each separate loan matures upon the earlier of (i) delivery of that aircraft to the Company by Airbus, (ii) the date one month following the last day of the scheduled delivery month of such aircraft and (iii) if there is a delay in delivery of aircraft, depending on the cause of the delivery delay, up to six months following the last day of the scheduled delivery month of such aircraft. The PDP Financing Facility will be repaid periodically according to the preceding sentence, with the last scheduled delivery of aircraft expected to be in the fourth quarter of 2025.

(b)Represents a note with a commercial bank related to the Company’s headquarters building. Under the terms of the note, the Company began repaying the outstanding principal balance with quarterly payments beginning in January 2022 and continuing until the maturity date in December 2023. On the maturity date, one final balloon payment will be made to cover all unpaid principal, accrued unpaid interest and other amounts due. The interest rate of one-month SOFR plus a margin is payable monthly.

(c)The Company entered into an agreement with Barclays in 2003 which, as amended, provides for joint marketing, grants certain benefits to Cardholders and allows Barclays to market using the Company’s customer database, through 2029. Cardholders earn mileage credits under the Frontier Miles program and the Company sells mileage credits at agreed-upon rates to Barclays and earns fees from Barclays for the acquisition, retention and use of the co-branded credit card by Cardholders. In addition, Barclays will pre-purchase miles if the Company meets certain conditions precedent. The pre-purchased miles facility amount is to be reset on January 15 of each calendar year through, and including, January 15, 2028, based on the aggregate amount of fees payable by Barclays to the Company on a calendar year basis, up to an aggregate maximum facility amount of $200 million. The Company pays interest on a monthly basis, which is based on a one-month Effective Federal Funds Rate ("EFFR") plus a margin. Beginning March 31, 2028, the facility is scheduled to be repaid in 12 equal monthly installments.

(d)As a result of the Company’s participation in the payroll support programs offered by the U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury”), the Company obtained a series of 10-year, low-interest loans from the Treasury (collectively, the “PSP Promissory Notes”) that are due between 2030 to 2031. The PSP Promissory Notes include an annual interest rate of 1.00% for the first five years and the SOFR plus 2.00% in the final five years, with bi-annual interest payments. The loans can be prepaid at par at any time without incurring a penalty.

In connection with the term loan facility entered into with the Treasury on September 28, 2020 (the “Treasury Loan”), which was repaid in full on February 2, 2022, and the PSP Promissory Notes, the Company issued to the Treasury warrants to purchase 3,117,940 shares of FGHI common stock at a weighted-average price of $6.95 per share. The Treasury has not exercised any warrants as of June 30, 2023.
