Forward guidance

Allegiant updated its full-year guidance and estimates a full-year, airline-only earnings per share of roughly $11. The increase is driven by a reduction in estimated fuel cost per gallon offset slightly by a two-and-a-half point reduction in full-year capacity.

  • Booking data continues to reflect a strong demand environment, particularly during peak summer travel periods.
  • Remain on track to open Sunseeker Resort in mid-October.
  • Team continues to attract high-quality group business with over $12 million in contracted future bookings.

Headwinds

  • Two-and-a-half point reduction in full-year capacity.
  • Industry continues to experience challenges from supply chain delays to ATC constraints.
  • Expect the final capital expenditure budget for Sunseeker Resort to be $695 million due to inflationary pressures and supply chain issues.
