Revenue Environment
The Company's overall operating revenue for the second quarter

its freighter operations.

Economic
Fuel Expense (unaudited)
The Company believes that economic fuel expense is a good
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
losses/(gains) realized through actual cash (receipts)/payments
received from or paid to hedge counterparties for fuel hedge
derivative contracts settled during the period.

Table 4.
Hawaiian Holdings, Inc.
Non-GAAP
Financial Reconciliation (unaudited)
The Company evaluates its financial performance utilizing
various GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted
net loss, adjusted diluted EPS, adjusted pre-tax margin, adjusted
EBITDA, and adjusted operating cost per ASM (CASM excluding fuel
and non-recurring items). Pursuant to Regulation G, the Company has
included the following reconciliation of reported non-GAAP
financial measures to comparable financial measures reported on a
GAAP basis. The adjustments are described below:
- CBA related expense. In February 2023, pilots represented by the Air Line
Pilots Association (ALPA) ratified a new four-year CBA, which
included, amongst other things, a signing bonus, pay scale
increases across all fleet types, improved health benefits and cost
sharing, and enhancements to the Company's postretirement and
disability plans. In connection with the ratification, the Company
recorded a signing bonus and vacation liability true-up of
$17.7 million which were recorded in
wages and benefits during the quarter ended March 31, 2023.
- Contract termination amortization. In
December 2022, the Company entered
into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with one of its
third-party service providers to early terminate its Amended and
Restated Complete Fleet Services Agreement (Amended CFS) covering
A330-200 aircraft. The Amended CFS was originally scheduled to run
through December 2027, but was
terminated in April 2023. During the
three and six months ended June 30,
2023, the Company recognized approximately $6.0 million and $24.1
million, respectively in amortization within Maintenance,
materials and repairs in the Consolidated Statements of
Operations.
- Special items. During the three and six months
ended June 30, 2024, the Company
recorded $6.5 million and
$15.0 million, respectively in
Special items as a result of expenses related to its merger with
Alaska, primarily consisting of
legal, advisory, and other fees.
- Loss on sale of aircraft. During the three months ended
June 30, 2023, the Company completed
the sale of one ATR-42 aircraft and recognized a loss of
approximately $0.4 million in
other operating expense.
- Gain on sale of commercial real estate. In
February 2023, the Company entered
into an agreement for the sale of its commercial real estate and
recognized a gain on sale of $10.2
million, which was recorded in Other operating expense in
the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
- Interest income on federal tax refund. In
March 2023, the Company received
$4.7 million in interest income in
connection with a $66.8 million
federal tax refund received related to fiscal year 2018. The
interest income received was recorded in Interest income in the
Consolidated Statements of Operations.
- Changes in fair value of fuel derivative
contracts. Changes in fair value of fuel derivative
contracts, net of tax, are based on market prices for open
contracts as of the end of the reporting period and include the
unrealized amounts of fuel derivatives (not designated as hedges)
that will settle in future periods and the reversal of prior period
unrealized amounts.
- Unrealized gain on foreign debt. Unrealized
gain on foreign debt is based on fluctuation in exchange rates and
the measurement of foreign-denominated debt to the Company's
functional currency.
- Unrealized (gain) loss on equity securities.
Unrealized (gain) loss on equity securities is driven by changes in
market prices and currency fluctuations, which is recorded in Other
nonoperating expense in the Consolidated Statements of
Operations.
The Company believes that adjusting for the impact of the
changes in fair value of equity securities and fuel derivative
contracts, fluctuations in exchange rates on debt instruments
denominated in foreign currency, and non-recurring expenses and
income/gains (including CBA-related, contract termination
amortization, special items, interest income on federal tax refund,
gain or loss on sale of aircraft, and gain on sale of commercial
real estate), helps investors better analyze the Company's
operational performance and compare its results to other airlines
in the periods presented.

Adjusted EBITDA
The Company believes that adjusting earnings for interest,
taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-recurring operating
expenses (such as changes in unrealized gains and losses on
financial instruments) and one-time charges helps investors better
analyze the Company's financial performance by allowing for
company-to-company and period-over-period comparisons that are
unaffected by company-specific or one-time occurrences.
The Company reclassified prior period EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
to conform to the current period presentation.

Operating Costs per Available Seat Mile (CASM)
The Company has separately listed in the table below its fuel
costs per ASM and non-GAAP unit costs, excluding fuel and
non-recurring items. These amounts are included in CASM, but for
internal purposes the Company consistently uses cost metrics that
exclude fuel and non-recurring items (if applicable) to measure and
monitor its costs.
