Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On November 1, 2022, Sun Country Airlines Holdings, Inc. issued a press release announcing its financial results for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2022. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
The information contained in this Item 2.02, including Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filings, unless expressly incorporated by specific reference in such filing.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
On October 31, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program pursuant to which the Company may purchase up to $50.0 million of its Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Common Stock”). The Company may purchase shares of its Common Stock on a discretionary basis from time-to-time through open market repurchases, privately negotiated transactions, or other means, including through Rule 10b5-1 trading plans. The Company’s intent in the near term is to enter into a $25.0 million Accelerated Share Repurchase (“ASR”) agreement with our brokering bank to allow the rapid retirement of acquired shares of Common Stock. Whether any repurchases are made, and the timing and actual number of any shares repurchased, will be determined by management depending on a variety of factors, including stock price, trading volume, market conditions and other general business considerations. The stock repurchase program has no expiration date and may be modified, suspended, or terminated at any time. Any repurchases made under this program will be funded from the Company’s existing cash flows, or future cash flows. The Company has been advised by SCA Horus Holdings, LLC, which is an affiliate of certain investment funds managed by affiliates of Apollo Global Management, Inc., that it does not intend to sell any shares of Common Stock to the Company in connection with the Company’s stock repurchase program.
