Item 2.01 |
Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets. |
Through wholly-owned subsidiaries, Allegiant Travel Company (the Company) has entered into separate agreements to acquire the ownership interests in twelve special purpose companies each owning one Airbus A320 series aircraft currently on lease to a European carrier until 2018 (the SPC Aircraft Acquisitions). Each contract to purchase the equity interest in these special purpose companies is with the particular owner or ownership group for such company. Neither the Company nor any of its affiliates had any material relationship with any of the sellers or special purpose companies prior to these transactions. All of these transactions were arranged through KGAL GmbH and Co. KG.
The purchase price for all of these special purpose companies is estimated to be approximately $236.1 million of which approximately $142.0 million will be by assumption of debt secured by the aircraft. The closing of each of the acquisitions is not conditioned upon the closing of the other acquisitions and such closings will occur on different dates. The total purchase price for the SPC Aircraft Acquisitions and the respective amounts to be paid in cash or through debt assumption will be subject to adjustment based on the timing of each of the transactions.
As of June 18, 2014, the Company has closed the purchase of five of these special purpose companies representing a total purchase price of $97.5 million including the assumption of $58.3 million of debt secured by the five aircraft owned by these entities.
The Company intends to bring these aircraft into its operating fleet upon the expiration of the current leases in 2018.
The closings of the remaining seven special purpose companies under purchase agreements are subject to customary closing conditions, which may not be satisfied.
Item 2.03 |
Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant. |
As of June 18, 2014, the twelve special purpose companies being acquired by the Company in the SPC Aircraft Acquisitions described in Item 2.01 have debt with an aggregate principal balance of approximately $142.0 million. The Company will assume the debt associated with each special purpose company upon the closing of each purchase (which closings will occur on different dates). As of June 18, 2014, the Company has closed the purchase of five of these special purpose companies and in connection therewith, assumed $58.3 million of debt secured by the five aircraft owned by these entities. All of the debt bears interest at a floating rate based on LIBOR and is payable in installments through the lease term of each individual aircraft owned by each special purpose company. The debt matures at expiry of the lease in 2018, at which time a balloon payment is due and is subject to a mandatory prepayment in the event of a loss of the aircraft. The assumed debt is secured by the Airbus A320 series aircraft owned by that company.
