Pattern Detected

Earnings and related announcements have usually seen modest, mixed reactions, with prior earnings often sold despite operational improvements. Today’s positive move contrasts with the slightly negative average move on past earnings headlines.

Recent Company History

Across recent earnings-related events in 2025, Allegiant reported volatile GAAP results but steadily improving adjusted airline performance and strong operational metrics. Q1 2025 delivered positive GAAP EPS, Q2 and Q3 showed GAAP losses with meaningful special charges, and Q3 guidance targeted a Q4 margin recovery. Calling and reporting dates themselves drew relatively small moves. Today’s Q4/FY25 results, with positive GAAP EPS in Q4 and higher full-year adjusted EPS, extend that progression toward cleaner profitability.

Average Historical Move earnings

In the past year, ALGT’s 5 earnings-related releases averaged a -0.24% move. Today’s +1.89% reaction to Q4/FY25 results is modestly stronger and tilts more positive than its typical earnings response.

Earnings across 2025 moved from strong Q1 profitability to Q2–Q3 GAAP losses driven by special charges, with guidance pointing to a Q4 margin rebound. The new Q4/FY25 release confirms that rebound with positive GAAP EPS in Q4 and higher full-year adjusted EPS.

Analysis

The stock moved +7.6% in the session following this news. A strong positive reaction aligns with improving fundamentals highlighted in Q4/FY25, including Q4 GAAP EPS of $1.73 and full-year adjusted EPS of $3.80. Historically, ALGT’s earnings moves averaged about -0.24%, so a larger gain would stand out. Investors may weigh sustainability of margins, planned 2026 CAPEX, and integration risk from the Sun Country deal when assessing how durable any outsized move might be.

Key Terms

gaap, non-gaap, ebitda, casm, +4 more
8 terms
gaap financial
"Fourth quarter 2025 GAAP diluted earnings per share of $1.73"
GAAP, or Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, are a set of standardized rules and guidelines that companies follow when preparing their financial statements. They ensure consistency, transparency, and comparability across different companies, making it easier for investors to understand and compare financial information accurately. This helps investors make informed decisions based on trustworthy and uniform financial reports.
non-gaap financial
"(1) Denotes a non-GAAP financial measure. Refer to the Non-GAAP Presentation"
Non-GAAP refers to financial measures that companies use to show their earnings or performance without including certain expenses or income that are often added back to give a different picture. It matters because it can make a company's results look better or more favorable, but it may also hide important costs, so investors need to look at both GAAP (official rules) and non-GAAP numbers to get a full understanding.
ebitda financial
"Adjusted airline-only EBITDA,(1)(2) of $143.1M, yielding an adjusted EBITDA margin"
EBITDA stands for earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. It measures a company's profitability by focusing on the money it makes from its core operations, ignoring expenses like taxes and accounting adjustments. Investors use EBITDA to compare how well different companies are performing financially, as it provides a clearer picture of operational success without the influence of financial structure or accounting choices.
casm financial
"Adjusted airline-only operating CASM, excluding fuel(2) of 8.01 ¢, down 3.4 percent"
CASM is the average operating cost to carry one available seat one mile on an airline, found by dividing total operating expenses by the number of seats flown multiplied by miles. Think of it like the cost to run one seat on a bus for one mile. Investors watch CASM because it shows how efficiently an airline controls costs and how much margin exists between ticket prices and operating expenses, affecting profitability and competitiveness.
available seat miles technical
"Available seat miles per gallon of fuel of 86.4, up 2.6 percent year-over-year"
Available seat miles measure the total capacity of an airline to carry passengers, calculated by multiplying the number of seats available on all flights by the distance those flights cover. It indicates how much space an airline has to generate revenue from passenger travel. For investors, higher available seat miles generally suggest a larger operation and potential for increased earnings.
rpm technical
"December RPMs rose 3.4% to 1,490,748 (000). For 4Q25, passengers increased"
Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) is the use of digital tools to collect health data from patients outside a clinic—such as blood pressure, glucose, or weight—and send it to clinicians for ongoing review. For investors, RPM signals a shift toward continuous, outpatient care that can create steady, recurring revenue, reduce hospital visits, and attract reimbursement from payers; adoption rates and regulatory support influence the growth and profitability of companies offering RPM solutions.
adjusted operating margin financial
"expect a 13.5 percent adjusted operating margin in the first quarter"
Adjusted operating margin shows how much profit a company makes from its core business activities, after removing unusual or one-time costs and income. It helps investors see the company's true profitability by providing a clearer picture, similar to removing unexpected expenses to understand the regular performance. This metric is useful for comparing companies or tracking performance over time, as it highlights consistent earning power.
share count financial
"Share count (thousands) | | 18,200"
The share count is the total number of a company’s outstanding shares—individual ownership pieces that investors can buy, sell or hold. It matters because metrics like earnings per share and ownership percentage are calculated using this number; changing the share count is like changing how many slices a pizza is cut into, which alters the size of each investor’s slice and can dilute or concentrate the value they own.

LAS VEGAS, Feb. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Allegiant Travel Company (NASDAQ: ALGT) today reported the below financial results for fourth quarter and full-year 2025, as well as comparisons to the prior year.

"We closed out 2025 with meaningful momentum, and I'm extremely proud of how the team executed," stated Gregory Anderson, chief executive officer of Allegiant Travel Company. "We delivered a 12.9 percent adjusted airline-only operating margin in the fourth quarter, exceeding our initial guidance, despite the impact of the government shutdown. Demand accelerated sharply in December, driving a nearly six-point sequential improvement in year-over-year unit revenue versus the third quarter. At the same time, our relentless focus on efficiency produced more than a six percent reduction in unit costs for the full year, which we believe led the industry.

"Team Allegiant's performance truly stands out. In 2025, we led the industry with a controllable completion factor of 99.9 percent. That commitment to running a safe, reliable operation shows up in our high customer satisfaction scores and was recognized externally as well with the Wall Street Journal naming Allegiant one of the Top U.S. Airlines of 2025, a true testament to the work our people do every day.

"As we enter 2026, the positive trends continue. We're seeing strong demand to start the year and expect a 13.5 percent adjusted operating margin in the first quarter, representing more than a four-point improvement over the prior year. The commercial and operational initiatives we've discussed over the past several quarters, including the expansion of Allegiant Extra, ongoing technology modernization, and the growing contribution from our MAX aircraft, are now contributing meaningfully to our results. These efforts position us to generate full-year adjusted earnings per share of more than $8, an increase of 60 percent year-over-year.

"I am energized about the long-term trajectory of the company. Our recently announced agreement to acquire Sun Country represents an important step toward building the leading leisure carrier in the U.S., enhancing our position and accelerating our long-term value creation strategy."

Guidance, subject to revision

Certain forward-looking financial information in the following tables is not presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP"). Non-GAAP financial figures may be useful to stakeholders, but should not be considered a substitute for GAAP figures. In reliance on the 'unreasonable efforts' exception in Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of SEC Regulation S-K, a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP financial measure is not provided for adjusted earnings per share and adjusted operating margin. The Company is not able to reconcile these Non-GAAP financial figures without unreasonable effort because the special charge adjustments will not be known until the end of the indicated future periods and any range of projected values would be too broad to be meaningful. As a result, this information would not be significant to investors.

Important risk factors that could cause our results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements generally may be found in our periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission at www.sec.gov. These risk factors include, without limitation, regulatory reviews of, and production limits on, Boeing impacting our aircraft delivery schedule, an accident involving, or problems with, our aircraft, public perception of our safety, our reliance on our automated systems, our reliance on Boeing 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 in connection with our fleet and network, the effect of economic conditions on leisure travel, debt covenants and balances, the impact of government regulations on the airline industry, the ability to finance aircraft to be acquired, the ability to obtain necessary government approvals to prepare to offer international service, terrorist attacks, risks inherent to airlines, our competitive environment, our reliance on third parties who provide facilities or services to us, the impact of the possible loss of key personnel, economic and other conditions in markets in which we operate, increases in maintenance costs and availability of outside maintenance contractors to perform needed work on our aircraft on a timely basis and at acceptable rates, cyclical and seasonal fluctuations in our operating results, and the perceived acceptability of our environmental, social and governance efforts, the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the right of one or both of Allegiant or Sun Country to terminate the definitive merger agreement for the Sun Country acquisition; the risk that potential legal proceedings may be instituted against Allegiant or Sun Country and result in significant costs of defense, indemnification or liability; the possibility that the Sun Country acquisition does not close when expected or at all because required stockholder approvals, required regulatory approvals or other conditions to closing are not received or satisfied on a timely basis or at all (and the risk that such regulatory approvals may result in the imposition of conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the proposed transaction); the risk that the combined company will not realize expected benefits, cost savings, accretion, synergies and/or growth from the Sun Country acquisition or that any of the foregoing may take longer to realize or be more costly to achieve than expected; disruption to the parties' businesses as a result of the announcement and pendency of the Sun Country acquisition; the costs associated with the anticipated length of time of the pendency of the Sun Country acquisition, including the restrictions contained in the definitive merger agreement on the ability of each of Sun Country and Allegiant to operate their respective businesses outside the ordinary course consistent with past practice during the pendency of the Sun Country acquisition; the diversion of Allegiant's and Sun Country's respective management teams' attention and time from ongoing business operations and opportunities on acquisition-related matters; the risk that the integration of Sun Country's operations will be materially delayed or will be more costly or difficult than expected or that Allegiant is otherwise unable to successfully integrate Sun Country's businesses into its businesses; the possibility that the Sun Country acquisition may be more expensive to complete than anticipated, including as a result of unexpected factors or events; reputational risk and potential adverse reactions of Allegiant's or Sun Country's customers, suppliers, employees, labor unions or other business partners, including those resulting from the announcement or completion of the Sun Country acquisition; and the dilution caused by Allegiant's issuance of additional shares of its common stock in connection with the consummation of the Sun Country acquisition.

Any forward-looking statements are based on information available to us today and we undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of future events, new information or otherwise.

Appendix A
Non-GAAP Presentation
Three and Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2025 and 2024
(Unaudited)

We present adjusted consolidated operating expense and adjusted consolidated operating income (loss), which exclude special charges related to (i) the impact of losses and insurance recoveries incurred primarily as the result of hurricanes and other insured events at Sunseeker Resort, (ii) a writedown loss and other charges related to the sale of Sunseeker, and (iii) the airline special charges listed in the table below. We also present adjusted consolidated interest expense, adjusted consolidated income (loss) before income taxes, adjusted consolidated net income (loss), and adjusted consolidated diluted earnings (loss) per share, which exclude the special charges described above and losses on extinguishment of debt. 

We present adjusted airline-only operating expense, adjusted airline-only operating income (loss), adjusted airline-only income (loss) before income taxes, adjusted airline-only net income (loss), and adjusted airline-only diluted earnings (loss) per share which exclude special charges and other costs related to (i) aircraft accelerated depreciation on early retirement of certain airframes, (ii) corporate restructuring costs (iii) the flight attendant ratification bonus, and (iv) accelerated amortization and disposal of software identified to be redeveloped, (v) costs related to the Sun Country acquisition, and (vi) losses on extinguishment of debt.

All of the measures described above are non-GAAP financial measures. We believe the presentation of these measures is relevant and useful for investors because it allows them to better gauge the performance of the airline and to compare our results to other airlines. Management believes the exclusion of these items enhances comparability of financial information between periods.

We also present adjusted airline-only CASM, which excludes aircraft fuel expense and special charges. Fuel price volatility impacts the comparability of year over year financial performance as do the airline special charges. We believe the adjustments for fuel expense and airline special charges allow investors to better understand our non-fuel costs and related performance.

Consolidated and airline-only earnings (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("Consolidated EBITDA" and "Airline EBITDA"), adjusted Consolidated EBITDA, adjusted Airline EBITDA, estimated adjusted earnings per share, as presented in this press release, are supplemental measures of our performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). These are not measurements of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.

We define "EBITDA" as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. The adjusted EBITDA measures also exclude special charges and losses on the extinguishment of debt. We caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with this definition may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other issuers, because not all issuers and analysts calculate EBITDA in the same manner.

We use EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to evaluate our operating performance and liquidity, and these are among the primary measures used by management for planning and forecasting of future periods. We believe these presentations of EBITDA are relevant and useful for investors because they allow investors to view results in a manner similar to the method used by management and make it easier to compare our results with other companies that have different financing and capital structures. EBITDA has important limitations as an analytical tool. These limitations include the following:

  • EBITDA does not reflect our capital expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments to purchase capital equipment;
  • EBITDA does not reflect interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service principal or interest payments on our debt;
  • although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets that we currently depreciate and amortize will likely have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA does not reflect the cash required to fund such replacements; and
  • other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Presented below is a quantitative reconciliation of these adjusted numbers (other than the estimated earnings per share figures) to the most directly comparable GAAP financial performance measure.

The SEC has adopted rules (Regulation G) regulating the use of non-GAAP financial measures. Because of our use of non-GAAP financial measures in this press release to supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, Regulation G requires us to include in this press release a presentation of the most directly comparable GAAP measures, which are operating expenses, operating income (loss), interest expense, income (loss) before income taxes, net income (loss), and earnings (loss) per share, and a reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measure. Our utilization of non-GAAP measurements is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating expenses, operating income (loss), interest expense, income (loss) before income taxes, net income (loss), earnings (loss) per share, or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our use of these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies in the airline and travel industry. The reconciliation of each of these measures to the most comparable GAAP measure for the periods is indicated below.
