This news release supersedes Hawaiian Holdings Reports 2010 Second Quarter Financial Results, issued July 27, 2010 by Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. This release corrects Table 4 to properly incorporate the tax effect of the economic fuel expense, as well as the following changes:
-- The second bullet point of “Second Quarter Highlights,” which originally stated, “Adjusted net income of $12.6 million, or $0.24 per diluted share reflecting economic fuel expense” should read “Adjusted net income of $11.0 million, or $0.21 per diluted share reflecting economic fuel expense”
-- The last sentence of the first paragraph, which originally stated, “Adjusted net income reflecting economic fuel expense of $12.6 million or $0.24 per share compares to $20.8 million or $0.40 per share in the prior year period.” should read “Adjusted net income reflecting economic fuel expense of $11.0 million or $0.21 per share compares to $20.8 million or $0.40 per share in the prior year period.”

HONOLULU, July 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: HA) ("Holdings" or the "Company"), parent company of Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. ("Hawaiian"), today reported consolidated net income for the three months ended June 30, 2010 of $9.0 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, on total operating revenue of $315.9 million. This result compares with net income of $27.5 million, or $0.53 per diluted share, on total operating revenue of $292.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. Year ago quarterly results benefitted from materially lower fuel costs and a lower effective tax rate. Adjusted net income reflecting economic fuel expense of $11.0 million or $0.21 per share compares to $20.8 million or $0.40 per share in the prior year period.
"Hawaiian reported its ninth consecutive quarterly profit, a winning streak unrivaled amongst its major competitors," commented Mark Dunkerley, the Company's president and chief executive officer. "Our Company has built a foundation of sustained profitability amidst continuing competitive challenges and uncertain economic conditions.
"The introduction of the A-330 to our fleet marks the beginning of a new era in our Company's history. Later this year, we will further expand our horizons with the introduction of Hawaiian's award winning service to Tokyo, and in early 2011 we will launch our first flights to mainland Asia with new service to South Korea. Coupled with our leading position in Interisland and Transpacific travel, our business is well positioned to remain the leader in Hawaii aviation," concluded Mr. Dunkerley.
Second Quarter Financial Results
The Company reported operating income of $24.0 million in the second quarter of 2010 compared with $31.7 million in the prior year period.
Second quarter 2010 operating revenue was $315.9 million, an 8.2% increase compared with the second quarter of 2009. Capacity for the quarter increased 1.1% year over year to 2.5 billion available seat miles (ASMs), resulting in operating revenue per ASM (RASM) of 12.83 cents, up 7.0% from the second quarter a year ago. Second quarter passenger load factor increased 1.4 percentage points to 85.6% compared to the same period a year ago, while passenger yield (passenger revenue per revenue passenger mile) increased 5.3% to 13.17 cents. Selected Statistical Data is included in Table 2 below.
Total operating expenses for the second quarter of 2010 increased 12.1% year over year to $291.9 million, resulting in an operating cost per available seat mile (CASM) of 11.85 cents, up 10.9% versus the same period a year ago. Excluding fuel, second quarter CASM increased to 8.66 cents, up 2.5% compared to the same period a year ago. A reconciliation of the GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures is included in Table 6.
Aircraft fuel costs increased 43.8% year over year in the second quarter to $78.6 million and represented 26.9% of operating expenses. Hawaiian's average cost per gallon of jet fuel increased 44.0% year over year in the second quarter to $2.29 (including taxes and delivery). The financial impact of hedging activities is included in non-operating income/expenses, and as such is not reflected in fuel expense. Non-operating expenses in the second quarter reflect $4.8 million in net expense from Hawaiian's fuel hedging activity.
The Company believes that economic fuel expense is the best measure of the effect of fuel prices on its business as it most closely approximates the net cash outflow associated with the purchase of fuel for its operations in a period. The Company defines economic fuel expense as GAAP fuel expense plus (gains)/losses realized through actual cash (receipts)/payments received from or paid to hedge counterparties for fuel hedge derivative contracts settled during the period. For the three months ended June 30, 2010, economic fuel expense was $79.8 million ($2.33 per gallon), compared with $54.9 million ($1.60 per gallon) in the prior year period. An analysis of economic fuel expense for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 and a pro-forma net income and diluted net income per share reflecting economic fuel expense is included in Tables 3 and 4.
The Company recorded a $1.6 million credit to operating expense (aircraft and passenger servicing), as a result of a refund due from the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) for overcharges of aviation security fees since 2005.
Second quarter 2010 non-operating expense totaled $8.1 million, compared with non-operating income of $5.6 million in the second quarter of 2009. During the second quarter of 2010, the Company recognized a non-operating loss totaling $4.8 million related to fuel hedging activities compared with a non-operating gain of $6.5 million during the prior year period. During the second quarter of 2010, fuel hedging losses included $1.2 million of realized losses on derivative contracts settling in the quarter, the reversal of $0.2 million of previously recorded losses on these same contracts, and $3.8 million in unrealized losses related to fuel derivative contracts settling in future periods.
Liquidity, Capital Resources and Fuel Hedging
- As of June 30, 2010, the Company had:
- Unrestricted cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $314 million, and $37 million in restricted cash.
