Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
1. Business and Basis of Presentation
Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. (the Company or Holdings) is a holding company incorporated in the State of Delaware. The Companys primary asset is its sole ownership of all issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. (Hawaiian). The accompanying unaudited financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, these interim financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements contain all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the Companys results of operations and financial position for the periods presented. Due to seasonal fluctuations, among other factors common to the airline industry, the results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the entire year. The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes of the Company included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
In October 2013, Hawaiian entered into a co-branded credit card agreement, which provides for the sale of frequent flyer miles to Barclays Bank Delaware (Barclays) beginning in 2014. The agreement is a new multiple element arrangement subject to Accounting Standards Update 2009-13, Multiple Deliverable Revenue Arrangements A consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force (ASU 2009-13), which is effective for new and materially modified revenue arrangements entered into by the Company after January 1, 2011. ASU 2009-13 requires the allocation of the overall consideration received to each deliverable using the estimated selling price. The objective of using estimated selling price based methodology is to determine the price at which the Company would transact a sale if the product or service were sold on a stand-alone basis.
The following four deliverables or elements were identified in the agreement: (i) travel miles; (ii) use of the Hawaiian brand and access to member lists; (iii) advertising elements; and (iv) other airline benefits including checked baggage services and travel discounts. The Company determined the relative fair value of each element by estimating the selling prices of the deliverables by considering discounted cash flows using multiple inputs and assumptions, including: (1) the expected number of miles to be awarded and redeemed; (2) the estimated weighted average equivalent ticket value, adjusted by a fulfillment discount; (3) the estimated total annual cardholder spend; (4) an estimated royalty rate for the Hawaiian portfolio; and (5) the expected use of each of the airline benefits. The overall consideration received is allocated to each deliverable based on their relative selling prices. The transportation element will be deferred and recognized as passenger revenue over the period when the transportation is expected to be provided (22 months). The other elements will generally be recognized as other revenue when earned.
In the previous co-branded credit card agreement, the estimated fair value of the transportation element was deferred and recognized as passenger revenue over a period of 22 months. Amounts received in excess of the transportations estimated fair value were recognized immediately as other revenue.
The impact of applying the new accounting method for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was immaterial to the Companys unaudited consolidated financial statements.
3. Short-term investments
Debt securities that are not classified as cash equivalents are classified as available-for-sale investments and are stated at fair value. Realized gains and losses on sales of investments are reflected in nonoperating income (expense) in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations. Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are reflected as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss.

5. Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share, which excludes dilution, is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.
Diluted loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.

In March 2011, the Company entered into a Convertible Note transaction which included the sale of convertible notes, purchase of call options and sale of warrants. The Companys 5% Convertible Notes due in 2016 with a current principal amount of $86.25 million can be redeemed with either cash or the Companys common stock, or a combination thereof, at the Companys option. The 10.9 million shares into which the Convertible Notes could be converted will not impact the dilutive earnings per share calculation in the current and future periods under the if-converted method, as the Company has the intent and ability to redeem the principal amount of these notes with cash. Although the average share price of the Companys common stock during the quarter ended March 31, 2014 exceeded the conversion price of $7.88 per share, shares related to the conversion premium of the Convertible Note (for which share settlement is assumed for EPS purposes) are not included in the Companys computation of diluted earnings per share as the Company is in a net loss position for the period and the effect would be antidilutive. However, the shares required to settle the conversion premium of the Convertible Note could be dilutive in future periods.
In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes, the Company entered into separate call option transactions and separate warrant transactions with certain financial investors to reduce the potential dilution of the Companys common stock and to offset potential payments by the Company to holders of the Convertible Notes in excess of the principal of the Convertible Notes upon conversion.
The call options to repurchase the Companys common stock will always be antidilutive and, therefore, will have no effect on diluted earnings per share and are excluded from the table above.
Although the average share price of the Companys common stock during the quarter ended March 31, 2014 exceeded the warrant strike price of $10.00 per share, the assumed conversion of the warrants are not included in the Companys computation of diluted earnings per share as the Company is in a net loss position for the period and the effect would be antidilutive. However, the warrants could be dilutive in future periods.
6. Fair Value Measurements
ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (ASC 820) clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
Level 1 Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term for the assets or liabilities; and
Level 3 Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The tables below present the Companys financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Cash equivalents. The Companys cash equivalents consist of money market securities, U.S. agency bonds, foreign and domestic corporate bonds, and commercial paper. The instruments classified as Level 2 are valued using quoted prices for similar assets in active markets.
Restricted cash. The Companys restricted cash consist of money market securities.
Short-term investments. Short-term investments include U.S. government notes and bonds, U.S. agency bonds, variable rate corporate bonds, asset backed securities, foreign and domestic corporate bonds, municipal bonds, and commercial paper. These instruments are valued using quoted prices for similar assets in active markets or other observable inputs.
Fuel derivative contracts. The Companys fuel derivative contracts consist of heating oil puts and swaps, and Brent crude oil call options and collars (a combination of purchased call options and sold put options of crude oil) which are not traded on a public exchange. The fair value of these instruments is determined based on inputs available or derived from public markets including contractual terms, market prices, yield curves and measures of volatility among others.
Foreign currency derivatives. The Companys foreign currency derivatives consist of Japanese Yen, Korean Won, Australian Dollar and New Zealand Dollar forward contracts and are valued based primarily on data available or derived from public markets.
Interest rate derivative. The Companys interest rate derivative consists of an interest rate swap and is valued based primarily on data available or derived from public markets.
Negative arbitrage derivative. The Companys negative arbitrage derivative represents the net interest owed to the trusts that issued the Companys enhanced equipment trust certificates during the periods prior to the issuance of the related equipment notes, and is valued based primarily on the discounted amount of future cash flows using the appropriate rate of borrowing. Changes to those discount rates would be unlikely to cause material changes in the fair value of the negative arbitrage derivative (refer to Notes 7 and 10 for more information).

The fair value estimates of the Companys debt were based on either market prices or the discounted amount of future cash flows using the Companys current incremental rate of borrowing for similar liabilities.
The carrying amounts of cash, other receivables and accounts payable approximate their fair value due to its short-term nature.
7. Financial Derivative Instruments
The Company uses derivatives to manage risks associated with certain assets and liabilities arising from the potential adverse impact of fluctuations in global fuel prices, interest rates and foreign currencies.
In addition, in 2013, the Company recognized in its Consolidated Balance Sheets the financial effect of the net interest owed to the trusts that issued the Companys enhanced equipment trust certificates. The characteristics of the net interest obligation resulted in the obligation meeting the definition of a derivative instrument under ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815).
Fuel Risk Management
The Companys operations are inherently dependent upon the price and availability of aircraft fuel. To manage economic risks associated with fluctuations in aircraft fuel prices, the Company periodically enters into derivative financial instruments. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company primarily used heating oil puts and swaps to hedge its aircraft fuel expense. These derivative instruments were not designated as hedges under ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815), for hedge accounting treatment. As a result, any changes in fair value of these derivative instruments are adjusted through other nonoperating income (expense) in the period of change.
The following table reflects the amount of realized and unrealized gains and losses recorded as nonoperating income (expense) in the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Interest Rate Risk Management
The Company is exposed to market risk from adverse changes in interest rates associated with its long-term debt obligations. Market risk associated with fixed-rate and variable-rate long-term debt relates to the potential reduction in fair value and negative impact to future earnings, respectively, from an increase in interest rates.
To limit the Companys exposure to interest rate risk inherent in one of its variable-rate debt, which was used to finance an aircraft delivered in 2013, the Company entered into a forward starting interest rate swap agreement. The interest rate swap agreement is designated as a cash flow hedge under ASC 815.
The effective portion of the gain or loss is reported as a component of AOCI and reclassified into earnings in the same period in which interest is accrued. The effective portion of the interest rate swap represents the change in fair value of the hedge that offsets the change in the fair value of the hedged item. To the extent the change in the fair value of the hedge does not perfectly offset the change in the fair value of the hedged item, the ineffective portion of the hedge is immediately recognized in nonoperating income (expense).
The Company believes that its derivative contracts will continue to be effective in offsetting changes in cash flow attributable to the hedged risk. The Company reclassified net losses from AOCI to interest expense of $0.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2014. The Company expects to reclassify a net loss of approximately $0.8 million into earnings over the next 12 months from AOCI based on the values at March 31, 2014.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk Management
The Company is subject to foreign currency exchange rate risk due to revenues and expenses denominated in foreign currencies, with the primary exposures being the Japanese Yen and Australian Dollar. To manage exchange rate risk, the Company executes its international revenue and expense transactions in the same foreign currency to the extent practicable.
The Company enters into foreign currency forward contracts, designated as cash flow hedges under ASC 815, to further manage the effects of fluctuating exchange rates. The effective portion of the gain or loss is reported as a component of AOCI and reclassified into earnings in the same period in which the related sales are recognized as passenger revenue. The effective portion of the foreign currency forward contracts represents the change in fair value of the hedge that offsets the change in the fair value of the hedged item. To the extent the change in the fair value of the hedge does not perfectly offset the change in the fair value of the hedged item, the ineffective portion of the hedge is immediately recognized as nonoperating income (expense).
The Company believes that its foreign currency forward contracts will continue to be effective in offsetting changes in cash flow attributable to the hedged risk. The Company reclassified gains from AOCI to passenger revenue of $3.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2014. The Company expects to reclassify a net gain of approximately $4.7 million into earnings over the next 12 months from AOCI based on the values at March 31, 2014.
Negative Arbitrage Derivative
In 2013, the Company created two pass-through trusts, which issued $444.5 million aggregate principal amount of EETCs. See Note 10 for further information related to the EETCs. In accordance with the related agreements, the Company is obligated to pay the interest that accrues on the proceeds and is also entitled to the benefits of the income generated from the same proceeds. The difference between the interest owed to the pass-through trusts and the interest generated from the proceeds introduces an element of variability that could cause the associated cash flows to fluctuate. This variability requires the Companys obligation to the trusts to be recognized as a derivative in the Companys unaudited consolidated financial statements. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, approximately $9.2 million of the derivative was reduced in connection with the first interest payment made to the trusts.
The following tables present the gross fair value of asset and liability derivatives that are designated as hedging instruments under ASC 815 and derivatives that are not designated as hedging instruments under ASC 815, as well as the net derivative positions and location of the asset and liability balances within the unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Risk and Collateral
The financial derivative instruments expose the Company to possible credit loss in the event the counterparties to the agreements fail to meet their obligations. To manage such credit risks, the Company (1) selects its counterparties based on past experience and credit ratings, (2) limits its exposure to any single counterparty, and (3) periodically monitors the market position and credit rating of each counterparty. Credit risk is deemed to have a minimal impact on the fair value of the derivative instruments as cash collateral would be provided to or by the counterparties based on the current market exposure of the derivative. The Company is also subject to market risk in the event these financial instruments become less valuable in the market. However, changes in the fair value of the derivative instruments will generally offset the change in the fair value of the hedged item, limiting the Companys overall exposure.
ASC 815 requires a reporting entity to elect a policy of whether to offset rights to reclaim cash collateral or obligations to return cash collateral against derivative assets and liabilities executed with the same counterparty under a master netting agreement, or present such amounts on a gross basis. The Companys accounting policy is to present its derivative assets and liabilities on a net basis, including any collateral posted with the counterparty. The Company had no collateral posted with its counterparties as of March 31, 2014 or December 31, 2013.
8. Debt
As of March 31, 2014, the expected maturities of long-term debt over the next five years, and thereafter, were as follows (in thousands):

During the quarter ended March 31, 2014 a condition for conversion of the Convertible Note was satisfied, which permits holders of the Convertible Notes to put their notes for conversion during the quarter ending June 30, 2014. Since the Company has the intent and ability to redeem the principal amount of these notes with cash, as of March 31, 2014, the carrying value of $77.5 million is reflected as a current liability in the unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets.

* See below for a detailed discussion of the committed financings Hawaiian has received for its upcoming capital commitments for aircraft deliveries.
Enhanced Equipment Trust Certificates (EETC)
In 2013, Hawaiian consummated an EETC financing, whereby it created two pass-through trusts, one of which issued $328.2 million aggregate principal amount of Class A pass-through certificates with a stated interest rate of 3.9% and the second of which issued $116.3 million aggregate principal amount of Class B pass-through certificates with a stated interest rate of 4.95%. The proceeds of the issuance of the Class A and Class B pass-through certificates were to be used to purchase equipment notes to be issued by Hawaiian to finance the purchase of six (6) new Airbus aircraft scheduled for delivery from November 2013 through October 2014. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company received $147.8 million in proceeds from the issuance of the equipment notes, which it used to fund a portion of the purchase price of two Airbus aircraft. The remaining proceeds will be used to purchase equipment notes to be issued by Hawaiian to finance the purchase of three (3) new Airbus aircraft scheduled for delivery through October 2014. The equipment notes are secured by a lien on the aircraft, and the payment obligations of Hawaiian under the equipment notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company. The Company issues the equipment notes to the trusts as aircraft are delivered to Hawaiian. Hawaiian records the debt obligation upon issuance of the equipment notes rather than upon the initial issuance of the pass-through certificates. In connection with consummation of the EETC financing transaction, Hawaiian was required to deposit $16.0 million into a collateral account, of which $0.6 million was released during the quarter. The funds held in this account are under the control of a third party. Accordingly, these funds are classified as restricted cash in the Companys unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The Company evaluated whether the pass-through trusts formed are variable interest entities (VIEs) required to be consolidated by the Company under applicable accounting guidance, and determined that the pass-through trusts are VIEs. The Company determined that it does not have a variable interest in the pass-through trusts. Neither the Company nor Hawaiian invested in or obtained a financial interest in the pass-through trusts. Rather, Hawaiian has an obligation to make interest and principal payments on its equipment notes held by the pass-through trusts, which will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company. Neither the Company nor Hawaiian intends to have any voting or non-voting equity interest in the pass-through trusts or to absorb variability from the pass-through trusts. Based on this analysis, the Company determined that it is not required to consolidate the pass-through trusts.
Litigation and Contingencies
The Company is subject to legal proceedings arising in the normal course of its operations. Management does not anticipate that the disposition of any currently pending proceeding will have a material effect on the Companys operations, business or financial condition.
General Guarantees and Indemnifications
In the normal course of business, the Company enters into numerous aircraft financing and real estate leasing arrangements that have various guarantees included in the contract. It is common in such lease transactions for the lessee to agree to indemnify the lessor and other related third-parties for tort liabilities that arise out of or relate to the lessees use of the leased aircraft or occupancy of the leased premises. In some cases, this indemnity extends to related liabilities arising from the negligence of the indemnified parties, but usually excludes any liabilities caused by their gross negligence or willful misconduct. Additionally, the lessee typically indemnifies such parties for any environmental liability that arises out of or relates to its use of the real estate leased premises. The Company believes that it is insured (subject to deductibles) for most tort liabilities and related indemnities described above with respect to the aircraft and real estate that it leases. The Company cannot estimate the potential amount of future payments, if any, under the foregoing indemnities and agreements.
Credit Card Holdback
Under the Companys bank-issued credit card processing agreements, certain proceeds from advance ticket sales may be held back to serve as collateral to cover any possible chargebacks or other disputed charges that may occur. These holdbacks, which are included in restricted cash in the Companys unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets, totaled $5.0 million at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.
In the event of a material adverse change in the business, the holdback could increase to an amount up to 100% of the applicable credit card air traffic liability, which would also cause an increase in the level of restricted cash. If the Company is unable to obtain a waiver of, or otherwise mitigate the increase in the restriction of cash, it could also cause a covenant violation under other debt or lease obligations and have a material adverse impact on the Company.
11. Condensed Consolidating Financial Information
The following condensed consolidating financial information is presented in accordance with Regulation S-X paragraph 210.3-10 because, in connection with the issuance by two pass-through trusts formed by Hawaiian (which is also referred to in this Note 11 as Subsidiary Issuer / Guarantor) of pass-through certificates, as discussed in Note 10, the Company (which is also referred to in this Note 11 as Parent Issuer / Guarantor), is fully and unconditionally guaranteeing the payment obligations of Hawaiian, which is a 100% owned subsidiary of the Company, under equipment notes issued by Hawaiian to purchase new aircraft, and will fully and unconditionally guarantee those obligations in connection with the future issuance of equipment notes by Hawaiian.
Also, in accordance with Regulation S-X paragraph 210.5-04 (c), the Company is required to report condensed financial information as a result of limitations on the ability of Hawaiian to pay dividends or advances to the Company included in Hawaiians debt agreements. The Companys condensed consolidating financial information satisfies this requirement.
Condensed consolidating financial statements are presented in the following tables:

Certain Restrictions on Subsidiary Distributions, Dividends and Repurchases
The Company and Hawaiian are party to an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (Credit Agreement), dated as of December 10, 2010, that provides for a Revolving Credit Facility. See further discussion of the Revolving Credit Facility at Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Companys Annual Report on form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. The Credit Agreement provides that, subject to certain exceptions, neither Hawaiian nor any other subsidiary of the Company will make any distribution or other payment on account of, or declare or pay any dividend on, or purchase, acquire, redeem or retire any stock issued by Hawaiian or any other subsidiary of the Company. The exceptions include (i) distributions by Hawaiian to the Company for the purpose of allowing the Company to pay federal and state income and franchise taxes, (ii) distributions by Hawaiian to the Company to pay customary costs and expenses of operating a publicly-traded company in an aggregate amount in any year not to exceed $10.0 million, and (iii) so long as no event of default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom, distributions by Hawaiian to the Company for the purpose of making regularly scheduled interest payments on specified indebtedness of the Company. In addition, the Credit Agreement restricts the ability of Hawaiian and the other subsidiaries of the Company from making loans or advances to the Company. The net assets of Hawaiian restricted under the Credit Agreement, defined as shareholders equity, totaled $306.3 million and $313.3 million as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

OVERVIEW
Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. (the Company, Holdings, we, us and our) is a holding company incorporated in the State of Delaware. The Companys primary asset is its sole ownership of all issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. (Hawaiian). Hawaiian was originally incorporated in January 1929 under the laws of the Territory of Hawaii and became the Companys indirect 100% owned subsidiary pursuant to a corporate restructuring that was consummated in August 2002. Hawaiian became a Delaware corporation and the Companys direct wholly-owned subsidiary concurrent with its reorganization in June 2005.
Our Business
We are engaged in the scheduled air transportation of passengers and cargo amongst the Hawaiian Islands (the Neighbor Island routes), between the Hawaiian Islands and certain cities in the U.S. mainland (the North America routes), and between the Hawaiian Islands and the South Pacific, Australia and Asia (the International routes), collectively referred to as our Scheduled Operations. In addition, we operate various charter flights. We are the largest airline headquartered in the State of Hawaii and the ninth largest domestic airline in the United States based on revenue passenger miles reported by the Research and Innovative Technology Administration Bureau of Transportation Statistics for the month of January 2014, the latest available data.
As of March 31, 2014, Hawaiian had 5,339 active employees.
General information about us is available at http://www.hawaiianairlines.com/aboutus. Information contained on our website is not incorporated by reference into, or otherwise to be regarded as part of, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q unless expressly noted. Our annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K, as well as any amendments and exhibits to those reports, are available free of charge through our website as soon as reasonably practicable after we file them with, or furnish them to, the SEC.
FIRST QUARTER REVIEW
Financial Highlights
· Operating income grew to $10.0 million in the first quarter compared to an operating loss of $11.9 million in the prior year period.
· GAAP net loss in the first quarter of $5.1 million or $0.10 per diluted share compared to a loss of $17.1 million in the prior year period or $0.33 per diluted share.
· Adjusted net loss, reflecting economic fuel expense, in the first quarter of $0.9 million or $0.02 per diluted share compared to $14.8 million in the prior year period of $0.29 per diluted share.
· Unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of $479 million compared to $438 million in the prior year period.
See Results of Operations below for further discussion of changes in revenue and operating expense. See Non-GAAP Financial Measures below for our reconciliation of non-GAAP measures.
During the quarter, we launched our Ohana by Hawaiian turboprop operations with three times daily service to Molokai and twice daily service to Lanai further expanding our Neighbor Island network. Also during the quarter we announced the suspension of our Taipei, Taiwan and Fukuoka, Japan routes with final flights in April and June 2014, respectively.
Outlook
We continue to expect our financial performance to improve in future periods as a result of increasing yields on our North America and Neighbor Island routes, the maturation of our international network, and our cost control efforts. Despite the announced suspension of our Taipei, Taiwan and Fukuoka, Japan routes, the Company expects available seat miles during the quarter ending June 30, 2014 to increase by 0.5% to 2.5% from the same prior year period, while passenger revenue per available seat mile is expected to increase by 3% to 6% from the same prior year period. The Company expects operating cost per available seat mile, excluding fuel, for the quarter ending June 30, 2014 to increase by 4% to 7% from the same prior year period.

(1) During the quarter ended March 2014, we took delivery of and placed into revenue service two Airbus A330-200 aircraft for service on our North America and International routes. Both of these aircraft were financed in part through proceeds from our EETC financing transaction. The increase in the number of owned Airbus A330-200 aircraft from 2014 to 2015 is due to
the planned delivery of four aircraft, three of which will be financed in part through proceeds from our EETC financing transaction. See Note 10 for further discussion regarding the EETC financing transaction.
(2) The decrease in the number of owned Boeing 767-300 aircraft from 2014 to 2015 is due to the planned retirement of two aircraft at the end of their estimated useful lives.
(3) Leased aircraft include both aircraft under capital and operating leases.
(4) The ATR42 aircraft are owned by Airline Contract Maintenance & Equipment, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
Results of Operations
For the three months ended March 31, 2014, we recorded a net loss of $5.1 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $17.1 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, for the same period in 2013.

North America
For the three months ended March 31, 2014, North America revenue increased by $27.4 million, as compared to the prior year period. Industry capacity growth stabilized from the prior year period and we experienced increased demand which resulted in an increase in average fares on these routes.
Neighbor Island
For the three months ended March 31, 2014, Neighbor Island revenue increased by $9.4 million, as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to higher average fares.
International
For the three months ended March 31, 2014, International revenue decreased by $8.7 million, as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to a decrease in yield. The average fares on these routes decreased due to unfavorable changes in the Japanese Yen and Australian Dollar exchange rates and the dilutive impact of certain new routes in their early stages of development.
Other Operating Revenue
Other operating revenue increased by $6.0 million, or 11.9%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014, as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to increased cargo revenue which was generated from an increase in the volume of cargo transported during the period. The increase in volume was the result of additional cargo capacity, the expansion of our network, and improved revenue generation on our existing routes.
Operating Expense
Operating expenses were $514.8 million and $502.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Increases (decreases) in operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the prior year period are detailed below:

Aircraft Fuel
Aircraft fuel expense decreased during the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to a decrease in the average fuel price per gallon, partially offset by an increase in fuel consumption as illustrated in the following table:

We believe economic fuel expense is the best measure of the effect of fuel prices on our business as it most closely approximates the net cash outflow associated with the purchase of fuel for our operations in a period and is consistent with how management manages our business and assesses our operating performance. We define economic fuel expense as raw fuel expense plus (gains)/losses realized through actual cash payments to/(receipts from) hedge counterparties for fuel hedge derivatives settled in the period inclusive of costs related to hedging premiums. Economic fuel expense is calculated as follows:
See Item 3, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, for additional discussion of our jet fuel costs and related derivative program.
Wages and Benefits
Wages and benefits expense increased by $4.8 million, or 4.6%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014, as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to a 7.6% increase in the number of employees as we continued to expand our operations with additional aircraft and new routes.
Maintenance materials and repairs
Maintenance materials and repairs expense increased by $3.1 million, or 5.5%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014, as compared to the prior year period, due to the increase in the number and utilization of Airbus A330-200 aircraft in our fleet.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $3.7 million, or 19.3%, for the three months ended March, 31, 2014, as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to the increase in the number of owned aircraft.
Other rentals and landing fees
Other rentals and landing fees expense increased by $1.4 million, or 7.4%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014, as compared to the prior year period, due to increased rates and landing frequencies on existing routes.
Other expense
Other expense increased by $3.6 million, or 8.4%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014, as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to costs incurred in connection with our new turboprop operations that began in March 2014.
Nonoperating Expense
Net nonoperating expense increased by $2.9 million, or 18.6%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014, as compared to the prior year period, primarily due to increased interest and amortization of debt discounts and issuance costs of $3.7 million, due to the additional financings we entered into subsequent to March 31, 2013.
In 2013, Hawaiian consummated an EETC financing, whereby it created two pass-through trusts, one of which issued $328.2 million aggregate principal amount of Class A pass-through certificates with a stated interest rate of 3.9% and the second of which issued $116.3 million aggregate principal amount of Class B pass-through certificates with a stated interest rate of 4.95%. We expect that the issuance of these equipment notes will significantly increase our interest expense in 2014, which is when all equipment notes are expected to be issued and outstanding.
Income Tax Benefit
We had effective tax rates of 38.8% and 37.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. We consider a variety of factors in determining the effective tax rate, including our forecasted full-year pretax results, the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35%, expected nondeductible expenses and estimated state taxes.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our liquidity is dependent on the cash we generate from operating activities and our debt financing arrangements. As of March 31, 2014, we had $335.0 million in cash and cash equivalents and $143.7 million in short-term investments, representing an increase of $55.3 million from December 31, 2013. Our restricted cash balance of $20.4 million and $19.4 million as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, consisted of cash held as collateral by entities that process our credit card transactions for advanced ticket sales and cash held as collateral for future interest payments owed in connection with the EETC financing which closed in 2013.
We have been able to generate sufficient funds from our operations to meet our working capital requirements and typically finance our aircraft through secured debt and lease financings. At March 31, 2014, Hawaiian had approximately $939.8 million of debt and capital lease obligations, including approximately $153.3 million classified as a current liability in the unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the quarter ended March 31, 2014 a condition for conversion of the Convertible Notes was satisfied, which permits holders of the Convertible Notes to put their notes for conversion during the quarter ending June 30, 2014. Since we have the intent and ability to redeem the principal amount of these notes with cash, as of March 31, 2014, the carrying value of $77.5 million is reflected as a current liability in the unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Hawaiian has a secured revolving credit facility (the Revolving Credit Facility) in an amount of up to $75.0 million, and as of March 31, 2014, we had no outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and $69.5 million available (net of various outstanding letters of credit).
See Note 10 for additional information on the EETC financing which closed in 2013. In addition, we have backstop financing available from aircraft and engine manufacturers, subject to certain customary conditions. Financing will be necessary to satisfy the Companys capital commitments for its firm order aircraft and other related capital expenditures. The Company can provide no assurance that any financing not already in place for aircraft and spare engine deliveries will be available to the Company on acceptable terms when necessary or at all.
Cash Flows
Net cash provided by operating activities was $89.5 million and $72.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to our improved financial performance from the prior year period, as we recorded a net loss of $5.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to a net loss of $17.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013.
Net cash used in investing activities was $313.3 million and $25.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The increase during the three months ended March 31, 2014 was due to an increase in purchases of property and equipment of $144.4 million and purchases of investments of $148.0 million.
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities was $135.5 million and $(14.4) million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The increase during the three months ended March 31, 2014 was primarily due to increases in long-term borrowings of $147.8 million.
In 2013, Hawaiian consummated an EETC financing, whereby it created two pass-through trusts, one of which issued $328.2 million aggregate principal amount of Class A pass-through certificates with a stated interest rate of 3.9% and the second of which issued $116.3 million aggregate principal amount of Class B pass-through certificates with a stated interest rate of 4.95%. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, $147.8 million of the proceeds from the EETC financing was used to finance a portion of the purchase price of two new Airbus aircraft. The remaining proceeds of the issuance of the Class A and Class B pass-through certificates will be used to purchase equipment notes to be issued by Hawaiian to finance the purchase of three (3) new Airbus aircraft scheduled for delivery through October 2014. Hawaiian issues the equipment notes to the trusts as aircraft are delivered to Hawaiian. Hawaiian records the debt obligation upon issuance of the equipment notes rather than upon the initial issuance of the pass-through certificates.

Committed expenditures for these aircraft, engines and related flight equipment approximates $254 million for the remainder of 2014, $244 million in 2015, $148 million in 2016, $494 million in 2017, $538 million in 2018 and $568 million thereafter.
For the remainder of 2014, we expect our other non-aircraft related capital expenditures, which include software, improvements and ramp and maintenance equipment to total approximately $45 million to $55 million.
In order to complete the purchase of these aircraft and fund related costs, we must secure acceptable financing. We are currently exploring various financing alternatives, and while we believe that such financing will be available to us, there can be no assurance that financing will be available when required, or on acceptable terms, or at all. The inability to secure such financing could have an impact on our ability to fulfill our existing purchase commitments and a material adverse effect on our operations.
We secured financing for a portion of the purchase price of three (3) upcoming Airbus A330-200 aircraft deliveries through October 2014 through the EETC financing which closed in 2013. In addition, we have backstop financing available from aircraft and engine manufacturers, subject to certain customary conditions. See Note 10 for further detail regarding the EETC financing.
Covenants under our Financing Arrangements
The terms of certain of our financing agreements restrict our ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, grant liens, merge or consolidate, dispose of assets, prepay indebtedness, make investments, make acquisitions, enter into certain transactions with affiliates, repurchase stock and, in the case of Hawaiian, pay dividends or make distributions to the Company. These agreements also require us to meet certain financial covenants. These financial tests include maintaining a minimum amount of unrestricted cash and achieving certain levels of fixed charge coverage. As of March 31, 2014, we were in compliance with these covenants. If we are not able to comply with these covenants in the future, our outstanding obligations under these facilities could be accelerated and become due and payable immediately.
Under our bank-issued credit card processing agreements, certain proceeds from advance ticket sales may be held back to serve as collateral to cover any possible chargebacks or other disputed charges that may occur. These holdbacks, which are included in restricted cash in our unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets set forth in the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, totaled $5.0 million as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.
In the event of a material adverse change in the business, the holdback could increase to an amount up to 100% of the applicable credit card air traffic liability, which would also result in an increase in the required level of restricted cash. If we are unable to obtain a waiver of, or otherwise mitigate the increase in the restriction of cash, it could also result in a covenant violation under other debt or lease requirements and have a material adverse impact on our operations.
Pension and Postemployment Benefit Plan Funding
We contributed $2.8 million to our defined benefit and other postretirement plans during the three months ended March 31, 2014, and expect to contribute an additional required minimum of $11.4 million during the remainder of 2014. Future funding requirements for our defined benefit plans are dependent upon many factors such as interest rates, funded status, applicable regulatory requirements and the level and timing of asset returns.
Contractual Obligations
Our estimated contractual obligations as of March 31, 2014 are summarized in the following table:

(1) Amounts represent contractual amounts due, including interest. Interest on variable-rate debt was estimated using rates in effect as of March 31, 2014. Amount reflects capital lease obligations for one Airbus A330-200 aircraft, two Boeing 717 aircraft and one A330 flight simulator.
(2) During the quarter ended March 31, 2014 a condition for conversion of the Convertible Note was satisfied, which permits holders of the Convertible Notes to surrender their notes for conversion during the quarter ending June 30, 2014. Therefore, the principal balance could be settled in as early as 2014 and is classified accordingly in the above table. However, the 5% interest-only, semiannual payments are excluded from the table.
(3) Amounts reflect leases for six Airbus A330-200 aircraft, six Boeing 767 aircraft, one Boeing 717 aircraft, three turbo-prop aircraft and aircraft-related equipment as of March 31, 2014.
(4) Amounts include our firm commitments for aircraft and aircraft related equipment including aircraft orders consisting of six wide-body Airbus A330-200 aircraft, 16 narrow-body Airbus A321neo aircraft, six Airbus A350XWB-800 aircraft, four Rolls Royce spare engines and two Pratt and Whitney spare engines. We have secured financing in the amount of $220.7 million from the EETC financing for a portion of the purchase price of three Airbus A330-200 aircraft deliveries through October 2014.
(5) Amounts include commitments for services provided by third-parties for aircraft maintenance for our Airbus fleet, accounting, IT and reservations. Total contractual obligations do not include long-term contracts where the commitment is variable in nature (with no minimum guarantee), such as aircraft maintenance deposits due under operating leases and fees due under certain other agreements such as aircraft maintenance power-by-the-hour, computer reservation systems and credit card processing agreements, or when the agreements contain short-term cancellation provisions.
(6) Amount includes our estimated contributions to our pension plans (based on actuarially determined estimates) and our pilots disability plan. Amounts are subject to change based on numerous factors, including interest rate levels, the amount and timing of asset returns and the impact of future legislation. We are currently unable to estimate the projected contributions beyond 2016.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We believe the disclosure of non-GAAP financial measures is useful information to readers of our financial statements because:
· We believe it is the basis by which we are evaluated by industry analysts and investors;
· These measures are often used in management and board of directors decision making analysis;
· It improves a readers ability to compare our results to those of other airlines; and
· It is consistent with how we present information in our quarterly earnings press releases.

Critical Accounting Policies
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and/or conditions.
Critical accounting policies and estimates are defined as those accounting policies and accounting estimates that are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties that potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. For a detailed discussion of the application of our critical accounting policies, see Critical Accounting Policies and Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to our Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2013 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Frequent Flyer Accounting
In October 2013, we entered into a co-branded credit card agreement, which provides for the sale of frequent flyer miles to Barclays Bank Delaware beginning in 2014. The agreement is a new multiple element arrangement subject to Accounting Standards Update 2009-13, Multiple Deliverable Revenue Arrangements A consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force (ASU 2009-13), which is effective for new and materially modified revenue arrangements entered into by the Company after January 1, 2011. ASU 2009-13 requires the allocation of the overall consideration received to each deliverable using the estimated selling price. The following four deliverables or elements were identified in the agreement: (i) travel miles; (ii) use of our brand and access to member lists; (iii) advertising elements; and (iv) other airline benefits including checked baggage services and travel discounts. The objective of using estimated selling price based methodology is to determine the price at which we would transact a sale if the product or service were sold on a stand-alone basis.
We are required to allocate the total arrangement consideration to each of the elements based on the relative fair values. We determined the relative fair value of each element by estimating the selling prices of the deliverables by considering discounted cash flows using multiple inputs and assumptions, including: (1) the expected number of miles to be awarded and redeemed; (2) the estimated weighted average equivalent ticket value that is adjusted by a fulfillment discount; (3) the estimated total annual cardholder spend; (4) an estimated royalty rate for our portfolio; and (5) the expected use of each of the airline benefits.
The assumptions used to determine the estimated selling prices of the deliverables are considered critical accounting estimates due to the level of subjectivity and judgment surrounding these assumptions, and the impact that these assumptions will have on the comparability of our financial results.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
We are subject to certain market risks, including commodity price risk (i.e. jet fuel prices), interest rate risk and foreign currency risk. We have market-sensitive instruments in the form of variable-rate debt and financial derivatives used to offset Hawaiians exposure to jet fuel price increases, and financial hedge instruments used to hedge Hawaiians exposure to variable interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange risk. The adverse effects of potential changes in these market risks are discussed below.
The sensitivity analyses presented do not consider the effects that such adverse changes may have on overall economic activity nor do they consider additional actions we might undertake to mitigate our exposure to such changes. Actual results may differ.
Aircraft Fuel Costs
Aircraft fuel costs constitute a significant portion of our operating expense. Fuel costs represented 33% of our operating expense for the three months ended March 31, 2014. Approximately 72% of our fuel is based on Singapore jet fuel prices, 27% is based on U.S. West Coast jet fuel prices and 1% on other jet fuel prices. Based on gallons expected to be consumed for the remainder of 2014, for every one cent increase in the cost of a gallon of jet fuel, our fuel expense would increase by approximately $2.0 million, excluding the results of our fuel hedge program.
We periodically enter into derivative financial instruments to manage our exposure to changes in the price of jet fuel. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, our fuel hedge program primarily consisted of heating oil puts and swaps. Put option contracts provide for a settlement in favor of the holder in the event the prices fall below a predetermined contractual level during a particular time period. Swaps provide for a settlement in our favor in the event the prices exceed a predetermined contractual level and are unfavorable in the event prices fall below a predetermined contractual level.
As of March 31, 2014, the Company hedged approximately 47% of its projected fuel requirements for the remainder of 2014 with heating oil puts and swaps. As of March 31, 2014, the fair value of these fuel derivative agreements reflected a net liability of $3.5 million that is recorded in other accrued liabilities in the unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets.
We expect to continue our program of offsetting some of our exposure to future changes in the price of jet fuel with a combination of fixed forward pricing contracts, swaps, calls, collars and other option-based structures.
We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
Interest Rates
Our results of operations are affected by fluctuations in interest rates due to our variable-rate debt and interest income earned on our cash deposits. Our variable-rate debt agreements include the Revolving Credit Facility and secured loan agreements, the terms of which are discussed in Note 7 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.
At March 31, 2014, we had $95.9 million of variable-rate debt indexed to the following interest rate:
Index |
|
Rate |
|
One-month LIBOR |
|
0.15 |
% |
Changes in market interest rates have a direct and corresponding effect on our pre-tax earnings and cash flows associated with our variable-rate debt and interest-bearing cash accounts. Based on the balances of our cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and variable-rate debt as of March 31, 2014, a change in interest rates is unlikely to have a material impact on our results of operations.
At March 31, 2014, we had $843.9 million of fixed-rate debt including aircraft capital lease obligations, a convertible note, facility agreements for aircraft purchases, and the outstanding equipment notes related to the EETC financing. Market risk for fixed-rate long-term debt is estimated as the potential increase in fair value resulting from a hypothetical 10% decrease in interest rates, and amounted to approximately $15.9 million as of March 31, 2014.
In 2013, we issued variable-rate debt to finance a portion of the purchase price of another Airbus A330-200 aircraft. The interest rate associated with this debt is based on a market index rate that resets every three months. To limit our exposure to significant increases in the applicable market index rates for this debt, we entered into a forward starting interest swap agreement.
Foreign Currency
We generate revenues and incur expenses in foreign currencies. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates impact our results of operations through changes in the dollar value of foreign currency-denominated operating revenues and expenses. Our most significant foreign currency exposures are the Japanese Yen and Australian Dollar. Based on expected remaining 2014 revenues and expenses denominated in Japanese Yen and Australian Dollars, a 10% strengthening in value of the U.S. dollar, relative to the Japanese Yen and Australian Dollar, would result in a decrease in operating income of approximately $14.0 million and $11.4 million, respectively, which excludes the offset of the hedges discussed below. This potential impact to the results of our operation is driven by the inherent nature of our international operations, which requires us to accept a large volume of sales transactions denominated in foreign currencies while few expense transactions are settled in foreign currencies. This disparity is the primary factor in our exposure to foreign currencies.
As of March 31, 2014, the fair value of our foreign currency forwards reflected a net asset of $3.4 million that is recorded in prepaid expenses and other, and $0.4 million recorded in long-term prepayments and other, and a net liability of $0.1 million recorded in other accrued liabilities and $0.2 million recorded in other liabilities and deferred credits reflected in the unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), performed an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, which have been designed to permit us to effectively identify and timely disclose important information. Based on that evaluation, our management, including our CEO and CFO, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2014 to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports it files under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Except as set forth below, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2014 which materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2014, we implemented new control activities in connection with the commencement of a new co-branded credit card agreement, which provides for the sale of frequent flyer miles to Barclays beginning in 2014. This new agreement required us to apply Accounting Standards Update 2009-13, Multiple Deliverable Revenue Arrangements A consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force to a material new agreement for the first time.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control systems objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, will be detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness of controls to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.
We are not a party to any litigation that is expected to have a significant effect on our operations or business.
See Part I, Item 1A., Risk Factors, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 for a detailed discussion of the risk factors affecting our business, results of operations and financial condition.
