ALLEGIANT TRAVEL COMPANY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
Note 1 —
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Allegiant Travel Company (the “Company”) and its majority-owned operating subsidiaries. The Company's investments in unconsolidated affiliates, which are 50 percent or less owned, are accounted for under the equity or cost method, and are insignificant to the consolidated financial statements. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
These unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments which management believes are necessary to present fairly 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 consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") have been omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for Form 10-Q. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company and notes thereto included in the annual report of the Company on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
On December 18, 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The standard simplifies the accounting and disclosure requirements for income taxes by clarifying existing guidance to improve consistency in application of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 740. The standard also removes the requirement to calculate income tax expense for the stand-alone financial statements of wholly-owned subsidiaries. The standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted in any interim period within that year. The Company adopted this accounting standard prospectively as of January 1, 2021, and it did not have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Note 2 —
Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic
The rapid spread of COVID-19 and the related government restrictions, social distancing measures, and consumer fears have impacted flight loads, resulted in unprecedented cancellations of bookings and substantially reduced demand for new bookings throughout the airline industry. Starting in March 2020, the Company experienced a severe reduction in air travel, which continued through the first quarter of 2021. Demand in the foreseeable future will continue to be affected by fluctuations in COVID-19 cases, variants, hospitalizations, deaths, treatment efficacy and the availability of vaccines. The Company is continuously reevaluating flight schedules and adjusting capacity based on demand trends.
On December 27, 2020, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 (the "Payroll Support Program Extension") was signed into law. This Payroll Support Program Extension provides an additional $
15.0
billion in support to the airline industry. On January 15, 2021, the Company through its airline operating subsidiary Allegiant Air, LLC entered into a Payroll Support Program Extension Agreement (the “PSP2”) with the Treasury and received $
91.8
million under the Payroll Support Program Extension. The funds were used exclusively for wages, salaries and benefits.
In April 2021, the Company received $
13.8
million in additional funds related to the PSP2 which included a loan of $
1.7
million. In consideration for these additional funds, the Company issued additional warrants ( the "PSP2 Warrants") to the Treasury to acquire
924
shares of common stock at a price of $
179.23
per share (based on the price of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on December 24, 2020).
In April 2021, the Company through its airline operating subsidiary Allegiant Air, LLC entered into a Payroll Support Program 3 Agreement (the "PSP3") with the Treasury under section 7301 of the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021. The Company received a total of $
98.4
million in second quarter 2021. The funds must be used exclusively for wages, salaries and benefits.
Based on the Company's assumptions about the future impact of COVID-19 on travel demand, which could be materially different due to the inherent uncertainties of the current operating environment, the Company expects to meet its cash obligations as well as remain in compliance with the debt covenants in its existing financing agreements for the next 12 months based on its current level of unrestricted cash and short-term investments, its anticipated access to liquidity and tax refunds, and projected cash flows from operations.

$

$

$
700,441
$
495,431
Sales of passenger tickets not yet flown are recorded in air traffic liability. Passenger revenue is recognized when transportation is provided or when ticket voucher breakage occurs, to the extent different from estimated breakage. As of June 30, 2021, approximately
69.8
percent of the air traffic liability balance was related to forward bookings, with the remaining
30.2
percent related to credit vouchers for future travel.
The normal contract term of passenger tickets is
12 months
and revenue associated with future travel will principally be recognized within this time frame. $
150.4
million of the $
307.5
million that was recorded in the air traffic liability balance as of December 31, 2020 was recognized into passenger revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2021.
In 2020, the Company announced that credits issued for canceled travel beginning in January 2020 would have an extended expiration date of
two years
from the original booking date. This policy continued for bookings through June 30, 2021. This change has been considered in estimating the future breakage rate, which represents the value of credit vouchers that are not expected to be redeemed prior to their contractual expiration date. Estimates of revenue to be recognized from air traffic liability for credit vouchers may be subject to variability and differ from historical experience due to the change in contract duration and uncertainty regarding demand for future air travel. Effective July 1, 2021, vouchers issued have an expiration date of
one year
from the original booking date.
Co-brand redemptions
In relation to the travel component of the co-branded credit card contract with Bank of America, the Company has a performance obligation to provide cardholders with points to be used for future travel award redemptions. Therefore, consideration received from Bank of America related to the travel component is deferred based on its relative selling price and is recognized into passenger revenue when the points are redeemed and the transportation is provided.
The following table presents the activity of the co-brand point liability for the periods indicated:

Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility
In March 2021, the Company entered into a new revolving credit facility under which it is entitled to borrow up to $
50.0
million. The facility has a term of
24
months and the borrowing ability is based on the value of the Airbus A320 series aircraft placed into the collateral pool. The notes for amounts borrowed under the facility bear interest at a floating rate based on LIBOR and are due in March 2023. As of June 30, 2021,
no
aircraft collateral had been added to the collateral pool and the facility was undrawn.
13
Note 6 —
Income Taxes
The Company recorded an effective tax rate of
22.5
percent and
36.4
percent for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2021 differed from the statutory Federal income tax rate of
21.0
percent primarily due to state income taxes and the impact of ASU 2016-09 related to share-based payments. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2020 differed from the statutory federal income tax rate of
21.0
percent primarily due to the tax accounting impact of the CARES Act which allowed the Company to carryback the 2020 net operating loss at the
35.0
percent rate applicable in earlier years. While the Company expects its effective tax rate to be fairly consistent in the near term, it will vary depending on recurring items such as the amount of income earned in each state and the state tax rate applicable to such income. Discrete items during interim periods may also affect the Company's tax rates.
The Company recorded an effective tax rate of
22.4
percent and
54.5
percent for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 differed from the statutory Federal income tax rate of
21.0
percent primarily due to state income taxes and the impact of ASU 2016-09 related to share-based payments. The
54.5
percent effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2020 differed from the statutory federal income tax rate of
21.0
percent primarily due to the tax accounting impact of the CARES Act which included a $
39.6
million discrete federal income tax benefit related to the full utilization of 2018 and 2019 net operating losses as well as the ability to carryback the 2020 net operating loss at a
35.0
percent rate applicable in earlier years.
14
Note 7 —
Leases
The Company evaluates all operating leases and they are measured on the balance sheet with a lease liability and right-of-use asset (“ROU”) at inception. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make scheduled lease payments. Airport terminal leases mostly include variable lease payments outside of those based on a fixed index, and are therefore not recorded as ROU assets.
The following table summarizes the Company's total assets and liabilities related to leases as of the dates indicated:

Sale-Leaseback Transaction
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company entered into a sale-leaseback transaction involving
three
aircraft and generating $
105.0
million of proceeds. The lease was classified as a finance lease and as a result, the transaction did not qualify as a sale. The aircraft were not removed from property and equipment in the Company's balance sheet and the Company recorded a financial liability in the amount of $
105.0
million. The proceeds from this transaction are treated as cash inflows from finance lease obligations and reported in financing activities on the statement of cash flows.

Note 8 —
Fair Value Measurements
The Company utilizes the market approach to measure the fair value of its financial assets. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets. The assets classified as Level 2 primarily utilize quoted market prices or alternative pricing sources including transactions involving identical or comparable assets and models utilizing market observable inputs for valuation of these securities. No changes in valuation techniques or inputs occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

None of the Company's debt is publicly held and as a result, the Company has determined the estimated fair value of these notes to be Level 3. Certain inputs used to determine fair value are unobservable and, therefore, could be sensitive to changes in inputs. The Company utilizes the discounted cash flow method to estimate the fair value of Level 3 debt.
Carrying value and estimated fair value of long-term debt, including current maturities and without reduction for related costs, are as follows:

Due to their short-term nature, the carrying amounts of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value.

Note 9 —
Earnings (Loss) per Share
Basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share are computed pursuant to the two-class method. Under this method, the Company attributes net income (loss) to two classes: common stock and unvested restricted stock. Unvested restricted stock awards granted to employees under the Company’s Long-Term Incentive Plan are considered participating securities as they receive non-forfeitable rights to cash dividends at the same rate as common stock.
Diluted net income per share is calculated using the more dilutive of the two methods. Under both methods, the exercise of employee stock options is assumed using the treasury stock method. The assumption of vesting of restricted stock, however, differs:
1.
Assume vesting of restricted stock using the treasury stock method.
2.
Assume unvested restricted stock awards are not vested, and allocate earnings to common shares and unvested restricted stock awards using the two-class method.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the second method was used because it was more dilutive than the first method.
The following table sets forth the computation of net income (loss) per share, on a basic and diluted basis, for the periods indicated (share count and dollar amounts other than per-share amounts in the table are in thousands):

NETWORK
As of June 30, 2021, we were selling 607 routes versus 519 as of the same date last year and 459 as of June 30, 2019, which represents a 17.0 and 32.2 percent increase, respectively. Our total number of origination cities and leisure destinations (for operating routes) were 97 and 32, respectively, as of June 30, 2021.
Our unique model is predicated around expanding and contracting capacity to meet seasonal travel demands. We maintained a broad network and selling presence during the pandemic and have grown our network as air travel is recovering. We consistently monitor flights to assess for cash profitability.
23
TRENDS
The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted our operating results for the three and six months ending June 30, 2021 and may continue to do so into the future. Our load factors are down significantly as a result. We cannot predict when air travel will return to customary levels or at what pace. In the meantime, our revenues will be adversely affected. We believe that demand in the foreseeable future will continue to fluctuate in response to fluctuations in COVID-19 cases, variants of the virus, hospitalizations, deaths, treatment efficacy, the availability of vaccines, CDC recommendations, and government restrictions.
Despite the pande
mic and airline industry challenges, since the beginning of 2021 and through June 30, 2021, we have announced service on 95 new routes and to eight new cities, in
cluding seasonal and temporary routes. We will continue to manage capacity to meet demand, which we believe is a core strength of our business model.
We plan to continue to grow our aircraft fleet and route network and have executed agreements to acquire 21 incremental aircraft year-to-date. Our future profitability will be affected by the success of our growth initiatives.
Noncontrollable and controllable factors have contributed to a higher than normal level of cancellations during peak periods during and after second quarter 2021 and have resulted in increased irregular operations costs. The noncontrollable factors include weather, TSA delays generally and particularly at smaller airports and airport overcrowding. Controllable issues relate to various aspects of our operations as we had to readjust to providing peak capacity during the summer while also facing a number of external issues as indicated above. We believe many airlines are suffering from these problems at this time. We are working to resolve the controllable issues, but if these problems persist, we may suffer reputational damage and incur higher costs for irregular operations.
We have announced the recommencement of the construction of its Sunseeker Resort in Southwest Florida. We expect to finance the balance of the construction cost and complete the Resort by early 2023.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Comparison of three months ended June 30, 2021 to three months ended June 30, 2020
As comparisons of our 2021 results to periods during 2020 reflect disproportionate changes due to the impact of the pandemic on air travel, we have also provided analysis of certain revenue and expense line items to 2019 results where helpful to understand trends in our performance.
Operating Revenue
Passenger revenue
.
For the second quarter 2021, passenger revenue increased 280.8 percent compared to the same period in 2020. This increase was due to a significant decline in passenger demand related to COVID-19 during the second quarter 2020. Revenue in the second quarter 2021 was favorably impacted by estimates of breakage on vouchers whose expiration was extended as a result of the pandemic. Scheduled service passengers were up 190.7 percent and scheduled service average base fare was up 54.7 percent.
Passenger revenue for the second quarter 2021, as compared to second quarter 2019, decreased by 2.4 percent, as load factor decreased by 13 percentage points resulting in a 10.9 percent decline in scheduled service passengers. The impact of lower loads was partially offset by a 7.2 percent increase in average base fare over the same period in 2019.
Air ancillary average fare for the second quarter 2021 increased by 12.5 percent when compared to 2020 and 12.2 percent when compared to 2019.
Third party products revenue.
Third party products revenue for the second quarter 2021 increased 172.4 percent compared to the second quarter 2020 and 26.3 percent compared to the second quarter 2019. The increase from 2020 is primarily the result of greater travel demand for rental cars and hotels than during the early part of the pandemic. The increase from 2019 is attributable to increased rental car rates and growth in our co-branded credit card revenues.
Fixed fee contract revenue.
Fixed fee contract revenue for the second quarter 2021 increased 58.6 percent compared to the same period in 2020 as a result of a 21.8 percent increase in related departures due to increased charter activity.
Fixed fee contract revenue for the second quarter 2021, as compared to 2019, decreased by 58.9 percent due to continuing depressed demand for group charters resulting from the pandemic.
Other revenue.
Other revenue decreased 89.3 percent for the second quarter 2021 from the same period in 2020. The decrease was due to decreased activity in the non-airline subsidiaries.
Operating Expenses
We primarily evaluate our expense management by comparing our costs per available seat mile (ASM) across different periods, which enables us to assess trends in each expense category. The following table presents unit costs on a per ASM basis, or CASM, for the indicated periods. Excluding fuel on a per ASM basis provides management and investors the ability to measure and monitor our cost performance absent fuel price volatility. Both the cost and availability of fuel are subject to many economic and political factors beyond our control.

Salary and benefits expense.
Salary and benefits expense increased $27.1 million, or 28.6 percent, for the second quarter 2021 when compared to the same period in 2020. Although the average number of full time equivalent employees decreased 5.6 percent year over year, overall expense increased due to temporary voluntary leave programs offered to employees, voluntary pay reductions, and suspension of the bonus accrual during the second quarter 2020.
When compared to the same period in 2019, salaries and benefits expense increased by $8.3 million or 7.3 percent on a relatively flat number of full time equivalent employees year over two year. On a per ASM basis, salary and benefits expense increased only 3.92 percent. The per ASM cost increase relates to annual increases in crew pay.
Aircraft fuel expense.
Aircraft fuel expense increased $82.1 million, or 300.1 percent, for the second quarter 2021 compared to second quarter 2020. This is primarily due to the recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic driving increased capacity resulting in a 119.7 percent increase in fuel gallons consumed on a 108.8 percent increase in departures and an 82.0 percent increase in average fuel cost per gallon which was depressed during the pandemic.
When compared to the same period in 2019, aircraft fuel expense decreased by 8.8 percent, which is in line with the decrease in average fuel cost per gallon of 9.0 percent.
Station operations expense.
Station operations expense for the second quarter 2021 increased $29.8 million, or 108.8 percent compared to the same period in 2020 primarily due to increased departures of 108.8 percent.
Compared to the same period in 2019, station operations expense increased by $11.3 million or 24.7 percent. This increase is due an increase in departures of 3.1 percent and increased costs associated with irregular operations.
Depreciation and amortization expense
.
Depreciation and amortization expense for the second quarter 2021 increased by 2.8 percent as compared to the second quarter 2020 as the average number of aircraft in service increased 12.2 percent year over year.
Maintenance and repairs expense
.
Maintenance and repairs expense for the second quarter 2021 increased $9.6 million, or 73.4 percent, compared to the same period in 2020. Routine maintenance costs increased as aircraft utilization was up 97.4 percent during the quarter and we incurred incremental costs preparing our fleet to operate at full capacity again.
Compared to the same period in 2019, maintenance and repairs expense increased by $1.7 million or 8.2 percent primarily due to incremental costs preparing our fleet to operate at full capacity, and the maintenance and repairs on additional aircraft purchased over the past two years.
Sales and marketing expense.
Sales and marketing expense for the second quarter 2021 increased by 97.9 percent compared to the same period in 2020, due to a increase in net credit card fees as a result of a 280.8 percent increase in passenger revenue year-over-year as well as reduced advertising spend in 2020 during the pandemic.
Compared to the same period in 2019, sales and marketing expense decreased by 14.2 percent due to efforts to more adeptly deploy advertising spend.
Other operating expense.
Other expense decreased $8.3 million compared to the second quarter 2020, mostly due to decreased activity in our non-airline subsidiaries.
Payroll Support Programs grant recognition
. We received a total of $112.2 million in funds during the second quarter 2021 through the payroll support programs. Of the total, $110.4 million of these funds represent direct grants, and will be recognized as a credit to operating expense on our statement of income, over the periods for which the funds were intended to compensate. We recognized $61.2 million as an offset to operating expense on our statement of income during the second quarter of 2021.
During 2020, we received $176.9 million in funds through the payroll support program and recognized a $74.5 million offset to operating expense on our statement of income for the second quarter 2020.
Special charges.
Special charges of $0.9 million were recorded within operating expenses for the second quarter 2021 compared to $81.2 million for the same period in 2020. The special charges relate to expenses that were unique and specific to COVID-19. These charges in 2021 include accelerated depreciation on airframes and engines resulting from an accelerated retirement plan, and losses within our non-airline subsidiaries. Special charges recorded in the second quarter 2020 included accelerated depreciation on airframes and engines resulting from an accelerated retirement plan, a loss on a sale-leaseback transaction which we would not likely have transacted absent cash conservation efforts as a result of COVID, salaries and benefits expense, and a non-cash impairment charge for an investment in a third party. See Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) for further information.
26
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 increased by $2.7 million, or 19.0 percent over second quarter 2020, due to increased market rates for the fixed rate debt entered into during the pandemic offset by lower interest rates on our variable debt.
Income Tax Expense
Our effective tax rate was 22.5 percent and 36.4 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2021 differed from the statutory federal income tax rate of 21.0 percent primarily due to state income taxes and the impact of ASU 2016-09 related to share-based payments. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily due to the tax accounting impact of the CARES Act which allowed the Company to carryback the 2020 net operating loss at the 35.0 percent rate applicable in earlier years.
27
Comparison of six months ended June 30, 2021 to six months ended June 30, 2020
Operations during the six months ended June 30, 2021 consisted of two months of pre-pandemic activity and the period from March 2020 through June 2020 which was substantially impacted by the pandemic. The comparisons below of the results for the six month periods ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020 should be read with this in mind.
As comparisons of our 2021 results to periods during 2020 reflect disproportionate changes due to the impact of the pandemic on air travel, we have also provided analysis of certain revenue and expense line items to 2019 results where helpful to understand trends in our performance.
Operating Revenue
Passenger revenue
.
For the six months ended June 30, 2021, passenger revenue increased 41.4 percent compared with the same period in 2020. Revenue in the second quarter 2021 was favorably impacted by estimates of breakage on vouchers whose expiration was extended as a result of the pandemic. The increase is primarily attributable to the effects of COVID-19 in 2020, where a significant decline in passenger demand impacted operations from March to June 2020. Scheduled service passengers and base fares in the current period are up 35.8 percent and 6.4 percent, respectively, over the same period in 2020.
As compared to the same period in 2019, passenger revenue decreased by 19.9 percent, as a 24.1 percent decline in scheduled service load factor was partially offset by a 3.9 percent increase in capacity.
Air ancillary average fare for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased by 1.7 percent when compared to 2020 and 6.5 percent when compared to 2019.
Third party products revenue.
Third party products revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased 50.0 percent over the same period in 2020 and 3.6 percent when compared to 2019. The increase from 2020 is primarily the result of greater travel demand for rental cars and hotels than the early part of the pandemic. The increase from 2019 is attributable to growth in our co-branded credit card revenues.
Fixed fee contract revenue.
Fixed fee contract revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased 5.5 percent compared with the same period in 2020. This is primarily due to an 11.2 percent increase in related departures due to increased charter activity. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, ad-hoc charters increased by 217.6 percent over 2020 levels and we benefited from March Madness flying which did not occur in the prior year due to the pandemic.
Fixed fee contract revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the same period in 2019, decreased by 44.4 percent due to continuing depressed demand for group charters since the onset of the pandemic.
Other revenue.
Other revenue decreased by 84.2 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2021, when compared to the same period in 2020. The decrease is due to decreased activity in the non-airline subsidiaries, including the closure of the family entertainment centers.

28
by 5.6 percent year over year, expense increased due to temporary voluntary leave programs offered to employees, voluntary pay reductions, and suspension of the bonus accrual during the six months ended June 30, 2020.
Salary and benefits expense increased by $6.9 million or 2.9% as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. Although the average number of full time equivalent employees decreased by 1.8 percent, overall expense increased due to annual increases in crew pay.
Aircraft fuel expense.
Aircraft fuel expense increased $76.1 million, or 65.5 percent, for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020. This is primarily due to the recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic as departures increased by 38.1 percent resulting in an increase of 36.7 percent in fuel gallons consumed. The increase is also partially driven by an increase in fuel expense per ASM of 20.5 percent due to an increase in fuel prices.
Aircraft fuel expense decreased by $27.4 million or 12.5 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2019. This is primarily driven by a decrease in average fuel cost per gallon of 10.6 percent.
Station operations expense.
Station operations expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased $31.9 million or 46.6 percent primarily due to a 61.8 percent increase in airport and landing fees as a result of an increase in travel demand and
a 38.1 percent increase in departures.
As compared to the six month period ended June 30, 2019, station operations expense increased by $15.5 million or 18.2 percent due to a 2.6 percent increase in departures, increased costs associated with irregular operations and airports fees.
Maintenance and repairs expense
.
Maintenance and repairs expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased by $11.1 million or 32.0 percent compared to the same period in 2020. This is primarily due to the increase in aircraft utilization and incremental costs preparing our fleet to operate at full capacity again.
As compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019, maintenance and repairs expense increased by $2.3 million or 5.2 percent as the number of aircraft in service increased by 20.9 percent.
Depreciation and amortization expense
. Depreciation and amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 remained relatively flat as compared to the same period in 2020. Although the average number of aircraft in service increased by 8.0 percent, a majority of the increase was due to aircraft on operating lease.
When compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019, depreciation and amortization expense increased 17.4 percent as the average number of aircraft in service during the period increased 20.9 percent.
Sales and marketing expense.
Sales and marketing expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased 6.9 percent compared to the same period in 2020. In 2020, advertising spend was intentionally pulled back beginning in March due to the pandemic. There was also an increase in net credit card fees in the current year as a result of a 41.4 percent increase in passenger revenue year over year.
As compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019, sales and marketing expense decreased by 29.5 percent due to our efforts to more adeptly deploy advertising spend.
Other expense.
Other expense decreased by $17.2 million or 34.1 percent year over year, due to decreased activity in our non-airline subsidiaries.
Payroll Support Programs grant recognition.
We received a total of $203.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021 through the payroll support programs. The direct grants were recognized as a credit to operating expense on our statement of income, over the periods for which the funds were intended to compensate.
During 2020, we received $176.9 million in funds through the payroll support program and recognized a $74.5 million offset to operating expense on our statement of income for the six months ended June 30, 2020.
Special charges.
Special charges of $2.6 million were recorded within operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The special charges relate to expenses that were unique and specific to COVID-19. This includes accelerated depreciation on four airframes and six engines resulting from an accelerated retirement plan, a loss on the sale-leaseback transaction we would not likely have transacted absent cash conservation efforts as a result of COVID, salary and benefits expense, and other various expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2020.
29
Non-operating special charges.
Special charges of $26.6 million were recorded within non-operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020. We did not have any special charges for the same period in 2021. Of these special charges in 2020, $19.8 million relates to the termination of the loan agreement with Sixth Street Partners (formerly TSSP) intended to finance the development of Sunseeker Resorts Charlotte Harbor. The remaining $6.8 million relates to impairment charges for Sunseeker Resort during the first quarter 2020. These charges were reclassified from operating special expense to non-operating special expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020.
Income Tax Expense
We recorded a $29.3 million tax expense (22.4 percent effective tax rate) compared to a ($151.0 million) tax benefit (54.5 percent effective tax rate) for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 respectively. The 22.4 percent effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 differed from the statutory federal income tax rate of 21.0 percent primarily due to state income taxes and the impact of ASU 2016-09 related to share-based payments. The 54.5 percent effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2020 differed from the statutory federal income tax rate of 21.0 percent primarily due to the tax accounting impact of the CARES Act which includes a $39.6 million discrete federal income tax benefit related to the full utilization of 2018 and 2019 net operating losses as well as the ability to carryback the 2020 net operating loss at a 35.0 percent rate applicable in earlier years.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Current liquidity
Cash, cash equivalents and investment securities (short-term and long-term) increased to $1.2 billion at June 30, 2021, from $685.2 million at December 31, 2020. Investment securities represent highly liquid marketable securities which are available-for-sale.
Restricted cash represents escrowed funds under fixed fee contracts, escrowed project funds and cash collateral against letters of credit required by hotel properties for guaranteed room availability, airports and certain other parties. Under our fixed fee flying contracts, we require our customers to prepay for flights to be provided by us. The prepayments are escrowed until the flight is completed and are recorded as restricted cash with a corresponding amount reflected as air traffic liability.
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we received a total of $203.9 million in assistance through the payroll support programs.
We suspended share repurchases and our quarterly cash dividend, as part of cash conservation efforts in response to the effects of COVID-19 on our business. In connection with our receipt of financial support under the payroll support program, we agreed not to repurchase shares or pay cash dividends through September 30, 2022.
We believe we have more than adequate liquidity resources through our cash balances, operating cash flows, borrowings and expected tax refunds, to meet our future contractual obligations. We will continue to consider raising funds through debt financing on an opportunistic basis.
Debt
Our debt and finance lease obligations balance, without reduction for related issuance costs, decreased from $1.68 billion as of December 31, 2020 to $1.60 billion as of June 30, 2021. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we borrowed $122.1 million and we made principal payments of $199.6 million, including $53.9 million on our senior secured revolving credit facility that matured on March 31, 2021 and a $57.0 million prepayment of debt secured by aircraft.
Despite substantially lower revenues caused by the pandemic compared to pre-pandemic periods, our total debt and finance lease obligations declined by 4.6 percent from December 31, 2020 to June 30, 2021.
Sources and Uses of Cash
Operating Activities.
Operating cash inflows are primarily derived from providing air transportation and related ancillary products and services to customers. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, our operating activities provided $405.0 million of cash compared to $276.7 million during the same period of 2020. This change is mostly attributable to a $228.0 million increase in net income offset by changes in special charges and current assets and liability accounts.
Investing Activities.
Cash used in investing activities was $369.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $158.6 million for the same period in 2020. The change is due to an increase of $199.1 million of purchases of investment securities, net of maturities, and a decrease of $48.0 million related to proceeds from sale-leaseback transactions during the six months ended June 30, 2020. Purchases of property and equipment were $36.2 million less in the current year.
Financing Activities.
Cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $245.5 million, compared to $32.8 million for the same period in 2020. The year-over-year change is mostly due to the equity offering completed on May 10, 2021 which resulted in the receipt of $335.1 million in cash. This was offset by the net effect of debt activity, as principal payments and debt issuance costs exceeded debt proceeds by $93.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $74.7 million of debt proceeds (net of related costs) in excess of principal payments during the same period in 2020. Additionally, there were no share repurchases or dividends paid in the first half of 2021, where there was $33.8 million and $11.4 million of such activity, respectively, in the same period of 2020.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
We have made forward-looking statements in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, and in the section entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” that are based on our management’s beliefs and assumptions, and on information currently available to our management. Forward-looking statements include our statements regarding number of contracted aircraft to be placed in service in the future, the development and financing of our Sunseeker Resort, as well as other information concerning future results of operations, business strategies, financing plans, competitive position, industry environment, potential growth opportunities, the effects of future regulation and the effects of competition. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts and can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as the words "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "estimate," “project,” “hope” or similar expressions.
Forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements. Important risk factors that could cause our results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements may be found in our periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission at
www.sec.gov
. These risk factors include, without limitation, the impact and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic on airline travel and the economy, liquidity issues resulting from the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, restrictions imposed on us a result of accepting government grants under the Payroll Support Programs, an accident involving, or problems with, our aircraft, public perception of our safety, our reliance on our automated systems, our reliance on third parties to deliver aircraft under contract to us on a timely basis, risk of breach of security of personal data, volatility of fuel costs, labor issues and costs, the ability to obtain regulatory approvals as needed, the effect of economic conditions on leisure travel, debt covenants and balances, the ability to finance aircraft to be acquired, terrorist attacks, risks inherent to airlines, our competitive environment, our reliance on third parties who provide facilities or services to us, the possible loss of key personnel, economic and other conditions in markets in which we operate, the ability to successfully develop and finance a resort in Southwest Florida, governmental regulation, increases in maintenance costs and cyclical and seasonal fluctuations in our operating results.
Any forward-looking statements are based on information available to us today and we undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of future events, new information or otherwise.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
There have been no material changes to our critical accounting estimates during the six months ended June 30, 2021. For information regarding our critical accounting policies and estimates, see disclosures in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes contained in our 2020 Form 10-K, and in Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited).
34
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are subject to certain market risks, including commodity prices (specifically aircraft fuel). The adverse effects of changes in these markets could pose potential losses 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 be significantly impacted by changes in the price and availability of aircraft fuel. Aircraft fuel expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 represented 32.7% of our total operating expenses. Increases in fuel prices, or a shortage of supply, could have a material impact on our operations and operating results. Based on our fuel consumption for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, a hypothetical ten percent increase in the average price per gallon of fuel would have increased fuel expense by approximately $10.8 million and $19.7 million respectively. We have not hedged fuel price risk for many years.
Interest Rates
As of June 30, 2021, we had $0.98 billion of variable-rate debt, including current maturities and without reduction for $15.2 million in related costs. A hypothetical 100 basis point change in interest rates would have affected interest expense on variable rate debt by approximately $5.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
35
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
As of June 30, 2021, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer ("CEO") and chief financial officer (“CFO”), we evaluated the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, management, including our CEO and CFO, has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed, and are effective, to give reasonable assurance that the information we are required to disclose is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the CEO and the CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ending June 30, 2021, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
36
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are subject to certain legal and administrative actions we consider routine to our business activities. We believe the ultimate outcome of any pending legal or administrative matters will not have a material adverse impact on our financial position, liquidity or results of operations.
37
Item 1A. Risk Factors
We have evaluated our risk factors and determined there are no changes to those set forth in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and filed with the Commission on March 1, 2021.
