Operating Segments
Operating segments are components of a company for which separate financial and operating information is regularly evaluated and reported to the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"), and is used to allocate resources and analyze performance. The Company's CODM is the CEO, who assesses segment performance and makes resource allocation decisions using information about each operating segment's operating income and pretax income.

During 2025, the CODM reviewed separate financial information and made resource allocation decisions for the Company's two operating segments: Airline and Sunseeker Resort. Subsequent to the sale of Sunseeker Resort in September 2025, the Company is managed as a single Airline operating segment.

Airline Segment

The Airline segment operates as a single business unit and includes all scheduled service air transportation, ancillary air-related products and services, third party products and services, fixed fee contract air transportation and other airline-related revenue. Scheduled service and fixed fee air transportation services have similar operating margins, economic characteristics, and production processes (check-in, baggage handling and flight services) which target the same class of customers, and are subject to the same regulatory environment. As a result, the Company believes its airline activities operate under one reportable segment and does not separately track expenses for scheduled service and fixed fee air transportation services.

Sunseeker Resort Segment

The Company's consolidated financial statements include the operating results of Sunseeker Resort through the completion of the sale of the Resort's assets on September 4, 2025. The Sunseeker Resort segment was operated as a single business unit and included hotel rooms and suites for occupancy, group meeting facilities, food and beverage options, Aileron Golf Course and other Resort amenities.

Segment profit or loss, revenues, significant segment expenses, and other required financial information for each of the Company's operating segments are set forth below:

About Segments Disclosures

Segment disclosures break a company into its reportable operating units, revealing revenue, profit, and asset allocation that consolidated financial statements obscure. Under ASC 280, segments must match how the chief operating decision maker views the business, providing a window into internal management structure and resource allocation priorities.

Key signals: compare segment margins to identify which units drive profitability and which destroy value. Watch for changes in the number of reportable segments — segment aggregation or disaggregation often coincides with strategic shifts or attempts to obscure declining performance. Intersegment elimination patterns reveal internal pricing practices. The reconciliation between segment totals and consolidated figures exposes corporate overhead allocation and unallocated items. Geographic revenue concentration highlights regulatory and currency exposure. Compare segment-level capital expenditure against segment revenue to assess where management is investing for future growth versus harvesting existing assets.
