Hawaiian Airlines, Inc.

Notes to Condensed Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

1.             Business and Basis of Presentation

 

Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. (“Hawaiian” or the “Company”) was incorporated in January 1929 under the laws of the Territory of Hawaii and, based on operating revenues, is the largest airline headquartered in Hawaii. The Company is engaged primarily in the scheduled transportation of passengers, cargo and mail. The Company’s passenger airline business is its chief source of revenue. The Company provides daily passenger and cargo service from Hawaii, principally Honolulu to Las Vegas, Nevada, and the five key United States (“U.S.”) West Coast gateway cities of Los Angeles, San Diego and San Francisco, California, Seattle, Washington and Portland, Oregon (“transpacific”).  The Company also provides daily service among the six major islands of the State of Hawaii (“interisland”), and weekly service to each of Pago Pago, American Samoa and Papeete, Tahiti in the South Pacific (“south pacific”). Charter service is provided from Honolulu to Las Vegas and Anchorage, Alaska (“overseas charter”).  The Company uses 13 new Boeing 717-200 aircraft to service the interisland routes.  From the fourth quarter of 2001 through the second quarter of 2003, the Company plans to replace the DC-10 aircraft used on the transpacific, south pacific and overseas charter routes with sixteen Boeing 767-300ER aircraft.  The Company took delivery of two Boeing 76-300ER aircraft in the first quarter of 2002 and three new Boeing 767-300ER aircraft in the fourth quarter of 2001.

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements and notes to the financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, interim financial information pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these interim financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto contained in Hawaiian Airlines’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.

 

Operating results for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 are not normally indicative of the results that may be expected for the twelve months ending December 31, 2002.

 

2.             New Accounting Pronouncements

 

Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”.  Under SFAS No. 142, goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives will no longer be amortized but will be subject to annual impairment tests in accordance with SFAS No. 142.  Other intangible assets will continue to be amortized over their useful lives.  As of January 1, 2002, the Company had no recorded intangible assets apart from goodwill of $28.3 million, net of accumulated amortization. Application of the non-amortization provisions of SFAS No. 142 is expected to result in an increase in net earnings of $2.3 million per year.  The Company will complete the impairment analysis for its goodwill during the second quarter of 2002 and record an impairment adjustment at that time, if necessary.

 

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations” (effective for the Company on January 1, 2003).  SFAS No. 143 addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs.  The Company is in the process of evaluating the financial statement impact of SFAS No. 143.

 

5



 

 

In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.”  This Statement supersedes SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of” and the portion of Accounting Principle Board Opinion No. 30  that deals with disposal of a business segment.  Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 144, which did not have an effect on our results of operations.

 

3.             Comprehensive Income (Loss)

 

The Company's balance sheet includes in other comprehensive income (loss) changes in minimum pension liabilities and changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments that qualify for hedge accounting.  During the first quarter of 2002, the Company recorded other comprehensive losses of $2.5 million related to a change in minimum pension liabilities and other comprehensive income of $6.1 million related to changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments associated with the Company's fuel hedging program.

 

4.             Subsequent Events

 

Termination of Merger with Aloha and TurnWorks.  When it became clear that the April 18, 2002 outside date in the Company’s merger agreement with Aloha Airgroup, Inc. and TurnWorks, Inc. would not be met, the Company was asked by TurnWorks to extend that date.  After discussions with the other parties about potential revisions to the merger as a condition to any extension, the Company decided and announced that it would not agree to an extension.  Subsequently, Aloha and TurnWorks announced they would no longer pursue the merger, and the parties effectively treated the merger agreement as terminated.  To avoid any doubt on the matter, on April 18, 2002, the Company formally terminated the merger agreement, while reserving its position that the merger agreement had been effectively terminated prior to that date.

 

Stock Repurchase Program.  On April 19, 2002, after the formal termination of the merger agreement, the Company began repurchasing its common stock under the stock repurchase program that was authorized by the board of directors in March 2002.  The program authorizes the Company to repurchase up to 5 million shares of the Company’s common stock from time to time in the open market or privately negotiated transactions.  As of May 10, 2002, under this program, the Company has repurchased approximately 990,700 shares.

 

Corporate Restructuring.  On May 3, 2002, a Registration Statement on Form S-4 was filed by “Hawaiian Holdings, Inc.” with the Securities and Exchange Commission that relates to a proposed restructuring of the Company to form a holding company, to be called “Hawaiian Holdings, Inc.”  Under the corporate restructuring, the Company would become a wholly owned subsidiary of Hawaiian Holdings, Inc.  The shareholders of the Company would become shareholders of Hawaiian Holdings, Inc., owning the same number of shares and having the same relative ownership percentage of Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. as they have of the Company common stock immediately prior to the completion of the restructuring.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

 

 

As used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the terms “Hawaiian”, “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our” and similar terms refer to Hawaiian Airlines, Inc., unless the context indicates otherwise.

 

Forward-Looking Statements

 

Certain statements contained herein and throughout that are not related to historical results, including, without limitation, statements regarding the Company’s business strategy and objectives, future financial position and estimated cost savings, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Safe Harbor Provisions of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that may impact the actual results of operations. In some cases, identification of forward-looking statements can be made through use of terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” or “continue” or the negative of such terms and other comparable terminology.  Although the Company believes that the assumptions on which any forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, there can be no assurance that such assumptions will prove to be accurate and actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements.

 

It is not reasonably possible to itemize all of the many factors and specific events that could affect an airline operating in the global economy. Some factors that could significantly impact results are capacity, load factors, revenues, expenses and cash flows, the airline pricing environment, fuel costs, labor union situations both at the Company and other carriers, low-fare carrier expansion, capacity decisions of other carriers, actions of the U.S. and foreign governments, foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, inflation, the general economic environment and other factors, some of which are discussed herein.

 

Developments in any of these areas, as well as other risks and uncertainties detailed from time to time in the Company’s Securities and Exchange Commission filings, could cause the Company’s results to differ from results that have been or may be projected by or on behalf of the Company. The Company cautions that the foregoing list of important factors is not exclusive. The Company will not undertake and expressly disavows any obligations to update any forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q.

 

Segment Information

 

Principally all of our flight operations either originate or end in the State of Hawaii.  The management of our operations is based on a system-wide approach due to the interdependence of our route structure in the various markets that we serve.  We operate as a matrix form of organization as we have overlapping sets of components for which managers are held responsible.  Managers report to our chief operating decision-maker on both our geographic components and our product and service components, resulting in components based on products and services constituting one operating segment.  As we offer only one service (i.e., air transportation), management has concluded that we have only one segment of business.

Results of Operations

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2002, we reported an operating and net loss of $18.6 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2001, we reported an operating income of $0.7 million and a net income of $0.2 million.

 

Operating Revenue.  Operating revenues totaled $138.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002, compared to $148.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001, a decrease of $9.9 million, or 6.7%, primarily due to a decline in charter revenues resulting from the events of September 11th, 2001. Significant quarter-to-quarter variances were as follows:

 

                    Scheduled passenger revenues totaled $113.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002, a decrease of $0.8 million, or 0.7%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2001. First quarter year-to-year changes in revenue, passengers and resulting yields from our scheduled operations were as follows:

On September 25, 2001, a major source of our overseas charter revenues, Renaissance Cruises, Inc. filed for bankruptcy under Chapter 11 and ceased operations, resulting in the termination of our Los Angeles to Papeete, Tahiti charter service.  The loss of revenues from this charter service was partially offset by small increases in our Honolulu to Las Vegas and Honolulu to Anchorage charter service.

 

                    Cargo revenue totaled $4.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002, a decrease of $1.3 million, or 21.7%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2001.  As a result of the events of September 11, 2001, the implementation of new security regulations impacted our vendors and restricted our market to certain vendors, resulting in lower freight and mail volume.

 

                    Other operating revenues totaled $6.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002, an increase of $1.1 million, or 18.2%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2001. The increase resulted primarily from increases in frequent flyer miles revenue, ground handling revenue and the sale of jet fuel.

 

Operating Expenses.  Operating expenses totaled $156.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 compared to $147.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001, an increase of $9.5 million, or 6.4%.  Significant quarter-to-quarter variances were as follows:

 

                    Wages and benefits totaled $52.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002, an increase of $8.2 million, or 18.8%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2001. For the three months ended March 31, 2002, we incurred wage and benefit increases primarily related to the new collective bargaining agreements with our pilots, flight attendants and IAM employees that went into effect during 2001. Additionally, we incurred training costs during the first quarter 2002 associated with the introduction of the B767-300ER aircraft into the fleet.

 

                    Aircraft fuel costs, including taxes and oil, totaled $20.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002, a decrease of $9.6 million, or 31.6%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2001.  For the three months ended March 31, 2002, fuel consumption costs decreased $5.8 million, or 20.9%, compared to the same period in 2001 as a result of the decrease in available seat miles and introduction of more fuel-efficient aircraft. In addition to the decrease in fuel consumption, the average cost of aircraft fuel per gallon decreased 27.1%, resulting in a $6.0 million decrease in fuel cost. These cost savings were offset by a $2.9 million loss from our fuel-hedging programs.

 

                    Maintenance materials and repairs totaled $21.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002, a decrease of $4.0 million, or 15.8%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2001. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease of $2.9 million in DC-9-50

                        maintenance costs resulting from the replacement of the DC-9-50 fleet and a decrease of $5.5 million related to the DC-10 aircraft.  The cost savings were offset by increases of $2.7 million in Boeing 717-200 maintenance expense resulting from the introduction of Boeing 717-200 aircraft in 2001, and $1.7 million in Boeing 767-300ER maintenance expense from the operation of Boeing 767-300ER in 2002.

 

                    Aircraft rentals and landing fees totaled $22.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002, an increase of $9.9 million, or 81.3%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2001. The majority of the increase was due to an increase in aircraft rent resulting from the replacement of DC-9 and DC-10 aircraft with Boeing 717-200 and Boeing 767-300ER aircraft in 2001 and 2002. For the three months ended March 31, 2002, landing fees decreased $1.6 million compared to the same period in 2001 as a result of the State of Hawaii moratorium on landing fees which was effective September 19, 2001 through March 31, 2002.

 

                    Sales commissions totaled $4.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002, an increase of $1.7 million, or 57.6%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2001, primarily due to an adjustment in 2001 relating to prepaid commissions and an increase in wholesaler incentive commissions.

 

                    Depreciation and amortization expense totaled $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002, a decrease of $1.6 million, or 45.0%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2001.  Depreciation expense decreased $1.2 million as a result of the replacement of DC-9 aircraft in 2001. Additionally, commencing in 2002, SFAS No. 142  “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” required a change in accounting method; effective January 1, 2002, the Company discontinued amortization of Excess Reorganization Value and as a result no expense was recorded for the amortization of goodwill in the three months ended March 31, 2002 as compared to $0.6 million for the same period in 2001.

 

      Other expenses totaled $34.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002, an increase of $1.2 million, or 3.8%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2001.  Increases in merger related legal and consulting fees, insurance and security costs were offset by decreases in interrupted trips and passenger food expense.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our unrestricted cash and cash equivalents totaled $93.6 million at March 31, 2002.  Additionally, we had restricted cash of $22.0 million at March 31, 2002, comprised primarily of $20.4 million in escrow deposits held by a credit card processor and a $1.6 million deposit securing outstanding letters of credit.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2002, cash flows from operating activities used $6.9 million of cash.  Our net loss of $18.6 million was mainly offset by an increase in advance ticket sales of $12.7 million.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2002, our investment activities used $1.7 million of cash, primarily due to capital expenditures related to acquisition of equipment.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2002, financing activities used $0.6 million in cash.  Our primary cash outflow from financing activities included $0.3 million used in repayments of debt and $0.4 million in payments under capital lease obligations.

 

On April 19, 2002, after the formal termination of the merger agreement, we began repurchasing our common stock under the stock repurchase program that was authorized by the board of directors in March 2002.  The program authorizes the repurchase of up to 5 million shares of our common stock from time to time in the open market or privately negotiated transactions.  We used approximately $3.1 million to purchase 990,700 shares of common stock since April 19, 2002.

 

We currently have $0.4 million available under our revolving credit facility with CIT (the “Credit Facility”). CIT has extended the maturity of the Credit Facility to June 30, 2002, which may be automatically renewed for successive one-month terms thereafter unless terminated by the Company or CIT with 15 days written notice prior to the end of the term.

We continue to incur significant additional expenses resulting from the events of September 11th, 2001, primarily relating to increased security costs and increased aviation insurance costs which we expect will continue for an indefinite period of time. Based on current trends we cannot determine at this time the continuing effects of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks and the resulting impact on our future profitability.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

We utilize heating oil forward contracts to manage market risks and hedge our financial exposure to fluctuations in our aircraft fuel costs. We employ a strategy whereby heating oil contracts may be used to hedge up to 50% of our anticipated aircraft fuel needs. The contracts are exchange traded with counterparties of high credit quality. Therefore, the risk of nonperformance by the counterparties is considered to be small.

 

As of January 1, 2001, we adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” which establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities. SFAS No. 133 requires an entity to recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair value. We measure fair value of our derivatives based on quoted market prices.  Derivatives that are not hedges must be adjusted to fair value through income. If the derivative is a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivatives will be either offset against the change in the fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities, or firm commitments through earnings or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair value will be immediately recognized in earnings.

 

We are required to account for our fuel-hedging program under SFAS No. 133. For the three month period ended March 31, 2002, realized net losses on liquidated contracts of $2.9 million are included as a component of aircraft fuel cost. Based upon our derivative positions, unrealized gains of $1.8 million have been recognized as other comprehensive income on the balance sheet as of March 31, 2002 related to hedging instruments included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness. We expect to reclassify income on derivative instruments from accumulated other comprehensive income to operations during the next twelve months when the hedged fuel expenses are recognized.
