Atlas Air Worldwide Holdings, Inc. Reports Sharply Higher Third-Quarter Earnings, On Pace for Record Year
3Q10 Net Income Increases 130% to $33.8 Million, $1.29 per Share
Improved Demand, Tight Supply, High ACMI Aircraft Utilization, Robust Commercial Charter Volumes and Rates
Full-Year 2010 Adjusted EPS Expected to Exceed $5.40 per Share, Including $0.30 Impact For 4Q10 Additional Investment in 747-200 Maintenance Costs To Meet Anticipated Demand
PURCHASE, N.Y.,November 1, 2010 –Atlas Air Worldwide Holdings, Inc. (AAWW) (Nasdaq: AAWW), a leading global provider of air cargo assets and outsourced aircraft operating solutions, today announced sharply higher revenues and earnings for the third quarter of 2010, reflecting strong commercial airfreight demand; tight supply of wide-body, long-haul freighter aircraft; continued high ACMI aircraft utilization; and a significant increase in Commercial Charter volumes and rates.
For the three months ended September 30, 2010, AAWW’s net income rose 130% to $33.8 million, or $1.29 per diluted share, on revenues of $326.7 million and pretax earnings of $55.2 million. Solid operating and financial results for the quarter compared with net income of $14.7 million, or $0.70 per diluted share, on revenues of $255.5 million and pretax earnings of $21.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, AAWW recorded net income of $100.3 million, or $3.85 per diluted share, on revenues of $978.1 million and pretax earnings of $170.8 million. In 2009, AAWW’s nine-month net income totaled $49.4 million, or $2.35 per diluted share, on revenues of $740.0 million and pretax earnings of $78.0 million.
Excluding one-time items, adjusted net income in the first nine months of 2010 increased 167% to $108.7 million, or $4.17 per diluted share, compared with $40.8 million, or $1.94 per diluted share, in the first nine months of 2009. Pretax earnings for the first nine months of 2010 included a net expense of $16.2 million for legal settlements, partly offset by an $8.8 million litigation settlement receipt and a gain of $3.5 million on disposal of aircraft assets. Pretax earnings for the first nine months of 2009 included benefits of $10.0 million for the effective early termination of a contract, $2.7 million for a gain on the early extinguishment of debt, and $1.0 million on the disposal of aircraft assets.
“We expect 2010 to be a record year for the Company and for commercial airfreight demand,” said William J. Flynn, President and Chief Executive Officer of AAWW.
“Our third-quarter results and our outlook for a record full year reflect the strategic actions we have taken to transform our business, reduce our commercial and operational risk, increase sustainable core earnings, and improve the quality of our cash flows. They also highlight our leading industry position, our global business focus and customer base, our innovative customer solutions, and our ability to leverage the global scale and scope of our business to quickly capitalize on changing market demand.
“Shipments of high-tech products, pharmaceuticals, automotive parts used in global manufacturing, as well as inventory replenishment and just-in-time inventory management practices by manufacturers and retailers, are contributing to the strength in demand for airfreight. In addition, as we have noted previously, tight supply in the wide-body, long-haul, heavy-freighter space has contributed to a significant improvement in rates.
“Reflecting the encouraging demand and improved yields for airfreight, our ACMI customers continued to fly above their minimum contractual block hours during the latest quarter, averaging 10% above minimums for the period. Our Commercial Charter volumes and rates also strengthened considerably compared with the third quarter of 2009. These factors more than offset the anticipated moderation in AMC Charter contribution compared with the third quarter of 2009 and the first half of 2010.
“Our third-quarter results also include the first full quarter of outsourced, passenger-CMI service for SonAir, using two customer-owned 747-400 aircraft. In addition, our quarterly results include the startup of CMI flying for Boeing, with all four of Boeing’s modified 747-400 Dreamlifter aircraft now on our operating certificate. Each of these opportunities is expected to have a tangible impact on our results beginning in 2011.
“We expect our fourth-quarter results to reflect seasonally strong commercial airfreight demand and continuing tight supply in wide-body, long-haul markets.
“Heading into the fourth quarter, we moved two of our 747-400F aircraft from charter service into ACMI, following new contracts with Panalpina, a leading global freight forwarder, and TNT Express, a major international express package provider. With these placements, we now have 19 of our 22 747-400 freighter aircraft in our wet-lease segment.
“In Commercial Charter, we expect to benefit from continuing demand and tightness of supply during the fourth quarter. We believe average charter-market yields in the fourth quarter of 2010 will be in line with average yields in the fourth quarter of 2009, although we anticipate that the highest spot rates in the fourth quarter may not match those that we saw in the fourth quarter of 2009.
“In AMC Charter, we continue to anticipate that demand and block-hour rates will moderate compared with the fourth quarter of 2009 and first half of 2010. We currently anticipate that AMC demand will total more than 18,000 block hours in 2010, and will total approximately 17,000 block hours in 2011.
“Based on our assumptions for the balance of 2010, we expect to report record adjusted EPS of more than $5.40 per diluted share this year. Our outlook includes an expense of $0.30 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2010 to perform previously unplanned maintenance on our 747-200 freighters to meet anticipated levels of demand in 2011.
“We own our 747-200 freighters outright, and we manage them opportunistically. We see this investment in our 747-200s as an excellent opportunity to earn a swift payback on these aircraft. This investment is similar to the very profitable investment we made in the fourth quarter of 2009 to support growth in 2010.”

3Q10 Performance versus 3Q09
Revenues, operating expenses, and operating statistics in the third quarter and first nine months of 2010 reflect the consolidation of GSS, for financial reporting purposes, that began on April 8, 2009. As a result, block hours and associated block-hour revenues generated by aircraft supporting GSS since that date have been included in ACMI operations rather than in the previously reported Dry Leasing segment.
Operating revenues totaled $326.7 million in the third quarter of 2010, an increase of $71.2 million, or 28%, compared with the year-earlier period, driven primarily by stronger ACMI and Commercial Charter volumes as well as stronger Commercial Charter revenue per block hour.
Total block hours increased 18% (33,277 block hours versus 28,273) compared with the third quarter of 2009. Average operating aircraft, excluding Dry Leasing aircraft, increased 5% (29.2 compared with 27.8), reflecting the addition of customer-owned CMI passenger and freighter 747-400 aircraft to the Company’s operating certificate. Average utilization of operating aircraft, excluding Dry Leasing aircraft, totaled approximately 12.4 hours per aircraft per day during the quarter, up 11.7% compared with 11.1 hours in the third quarter of 2009, driven by a substantial increase in flying activity by ACMI and Commercial Charter customers compared with the third quarter of 2009.
In ACMI, revenues of $144.7 million increased $23.2 million, or 19%, as an increase in block-hour volumes (24,251 versus 19,812) was partially offset by a reduction in average ACMI revenue per block hour ($5,966 versus $6,131). Higher ACMI block-hour volumes largely reflected the continuing improvement in airfreight demand during the quarter, which led ACMI customers to fly above contractual minimums, as well as the startup of ACMI flying for TNT in mid-September, CMI passenger service for SonAir, and CMI Dreamlifter service for Boeing.
Revenue per block hour during the quarter primarily reflected the effects of above-minimum-guarantee flying by ACMI customers, in contrast with the third quarter of 2009, when below-minimum-guarantee flying by customers resulted in substantially higher average revenue per block hour. In addition, CMI average revenue per block hour will typically be lower than ACMI revenue per block hour, as CMI does not include a component for aircraft ownership cost.
For the quarter, an average of 19.0 aircraft (19.0 Boeing 747-400s and zero Boeing 747-200s) supported the Company’s ACMI operations, compared with an average of 17.4 aircraft (17.3 Boeing 747-400s and 0.1 Boeing 747-200s) in the third quarter of 2009.
AMC Charter revenues of $72.5 million decreased $6.1 million, or 8%, in the latest quarter, reflecting a reduction in block-hour volumes (3,729 block hours versus 5,023) in support of U.S. military activity in Afghanistan, partially offset by higher block-hour rates. Block-hour rates increased 24% ($19,444 versus $15,651), reflecting the impact of a higher “pegged” fuel price paid by the U.S. military ($2.68 per gallon versus $1.55).
An average of 4.3 aircraft (0.6 Boeing 747-400s and 3.7 Boeing 747-200s) supported the Company’s AMC Charter operations during the quarter, compared with an average of 6.6 aircraft (2.1 Boeing 747-400s and 4.5 Boeing 747-200s) in the third quarter of 2009.
In Commercial Charter, revenues of $104.0 million increased $51.8 million, or 99%, during the quarter. Revenues were driven by an increase in block-hour volumes (5,090 versus 3,361) and an increase in block-hour rates ($20,441 versus $15,557). Block-hour volumes primarily reflected the increase in demand in Commercial Charter and an increase in 747-400 charter service to and from South America. Block-hour rates during the quarter reflected a significant increase in demand for airfreight out of Asia compared with the third quarter of 2009, coupled with a tight supply in global wide-body freighter capacity.
For the quarter, an average of 5.9 aircraft (3.7 Boeing 747-400s and 2.2 Boeing 747-200s) supported the Company’s Commercial Charter operations, compared with an average of 3.8 aircraft (2.6 Boeing 747-400s and 1.2 Boeing 747-200s) in the third quarter of 2009.
Dry Leasing revenues of $2.2 million in the third quarter of 2010 were $1.8 million, or 544%, higher than in the third quarter of 2009, primarily due to an increase in revenue from the lease of a 757-200F acquired in the first quarter of 2010 and nine spare engine leases outstanding during the quarter.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses in the third quarter of 2010 totaled $271.8 million, an increase of $44.9 million, or 20%, compared with the same quarter in 2009, largely reflecting the increase in block-hour volumes, partly offset by Continuous Improvement achievements focused on cost savings and productivity enhancements.
Aircraft fuel expense of $74.2 million increased 56%, or $26.7 million, during the quarter. Approximately $21.2 million of the increase was due to higher fuel prices and approximately $5.5 million related to an increase in fuel gallons consumed.
Maintenance expense of $44.7 million increased $7.2 million, or 19%, during the quarter, primarily due to a $5.5 million increase in line and other non-heavy maintenance expense driven by higher rates and increased block-hour volumes, as well as a $2.5 million increase in heavy airframe check expense.
Heavy maintenance activity during the quarter included one C Check and two D Checks on 747-400 aircraft compared with three 747-400 C Checks and one 747-400 D Check in the third quarter of 2009. In addition, there were six engine overhauls during the period compared with seven in the third quarter of 2009.
Labor expenses of $56.2 million increased $4.0 million, or 8%, compared with the 2009 third quarter. Labor expenses during the quarter were primarily driven by the increase in block-hour volumes and increases in profit sharing expenses for our crewmembers resulting from better performance against Company objectives.
Ground handling and landing fees of $17.9 million during the quarter were $2.5 million, or 16%, higher than in the third quarter of 2009, primarily due to the increase in Commercial Charter block-hour volumes as well as flying to more costly locations.
Travel expense of $8.9 million during the quarter was $3.0 million, or 50%, higher than during the third quarter of 2009, reflecting an increase in crew travel related to higher block-hour volumes and an increase in ground-staff travel related to the startup of CMI service for SonAir and Boeing.
Other operating expenses totaled $22.7 million during the quarter, an increase of $1.6 million, or 8%, versus the third quarter of 2009, primarily due to an increase in outside services and an increase in freight related to the movement of 747-200 spare parts and engines utilized on aircraft in lieu of incurring more costly repairs.
Net Interest and Other Non-Operating Expenses
Net interest expense totaled $0.3 million during the quarter, a decrease of $7.4 million, or 96%, compared with the third quarter of 2009, reflecting a higher level of interest income and a lower level of outstanding debt.
Interest income during the quarter benefited from the Company’s long-term investments in Pass-through Trust Certificates that relate to Enhanced Equipment Trust Certificates (EETCs) issued by the Company to finance 12 of the Company’s 747-400 freighter aircraft.
Income Taxes
Third-quarter results included an income tax expense of $21.2 million compared with an income tax expense of $7.6 million in the third quarter of 2009, which resulted in an effective income tax rate of 38.4% versus a rate of 35.1%.
The difference between the effective rate and the statutory rate for the three months ended September 30, 2010, was primarily attributable to an increase in nondeductible items during the period. For the three-month period ended September 30, 2009, the effective tax rate reflected a one-time benefit related to the recovery of the Company’s investment in a foreign subsidiary.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
At September 30, 2010, AAWW’s cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled $570.0 million, compared with $636.3 million at December 31, 2009.
Operating activities generated $214.1 million of cash during the nine months ended September 30, 2010, partially offsetting $150.3 million of net cash used for investing activities and $132.3 million of net cash used for financing activities.
In September 2010, AAWW repaid $119.5 million of pre-delivery payment (PDP) borrowings under PDP financing facilities related to the first two aircraft in the Company’s order for 12 Boeing 747-8F aircraft, utilizing the Company’s strong short-term cash position to realize a net cash savings over the remaining six-month term of the borrowings.
Outstanding Debt
At September 30, 2010, AAWW’s balance sheet debt totaled $437.8 million, including the impact of $57.8 million of unamortized discount.
The face value of AAWW’s debt at September 30, 2010, totaled $495.6 million, compared with $627.3 million on December 31, 2009.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
EBITDAR, as adjusted for gains on asset sales, totaled $101.9 million in the third quarter of 2010 compared with $75.7 million in the third quarter of 2009. For the first nine months of 2010, EBITDAR, as adjusted for gains on asset sales and net expense for legal settlements, totaled $320.2 million compared with $234.6 million in 2009.
EBITDA, as adjusted for gains on asset sales, totaled $63.1 million in the latest reporting period compared with $37.7 million in the third quarter of 2009. EBITDA, as adjusted for gains on asset sales and net expense for legal settlements, for the first nine months of 2010 was $205.1 million compared with $121.4 million for the prior-year period.

AAWW uses an economic performance metric, Direct Contribution, to show the profitability of each of its segments after allocation of direct ownership costs. AAWW currently has the following reportable segments: ACMI, AMC Charter, Commercial Charter, and Dry Leasing. Each segment has different operating and economic characteristics, which are separately reviewed by senior management.
Direct Contribution consists of income (loss) before taxes, excluding special charges, special nonrecurring items, gains on the sale of aircraft, and unallocated fixed costs.
Direct costs include crew costs, maintenance costs, fuel, ground operations, sales costs, aircraft rent, interest expense related to aircraft debt and aircraft depreciation.
Unallocated fixed costs are administrative costs including operations administration, finance, human resources, information technology, non-aircraft depreciation, and other non-operating costs.
