Ticker: HA Current Price: $32.44 Prepared By MyMoneyTrainer On: 2/20/19 Name: Hawaiian Holdings Inc Shares Outstanding 48,420,000 Industry: Airlines Market Cap $1,570,744,800 Write Up I purchased this stock back in November 2017 @ $37.89. These are my thoughts after reviewing this when I completed my initial purchase in 2017: PRO #1 - Great airline that is well run. Has not always been the case. PRO #2 - Has 80-90%% market share on interisland travel (25% of revenue). Their one competitor (Island Air) went bankrupt. PRO #3 - Has diversified out of simply interisland flights and US to HA flights (50% of revenue) to capture intercontinental traffic from other areas (25% of revenue). CON #1 - CEO just retired (planned). This is the CEO that has gotten the company in the good shape it is in today. CON #2 - Debt to equity is a bit high but it has been dropping like a rock (and is down to 53% in most recent quarter). Their quality score that I’m calcing is better than the other airlines (even those with lower debt ratios). So they are focused on it and improving it so I’ll take a chance on it continuing (although it will slow with buybacks and dividends…and cap ex). CON #3 - Other airlines are adding routes from US to Hawaii. 1) Southwest says they are adding routes to Hawaii in 2018-19 (and maybe interisland too). 2) United Continental said they would enter market too. 3) The threat of competition has been on the table for a while but hasn’t become official yet. I'm using very conservative earnings estimates in my analysis (which is why some of my very important tests are showing low certainty--especially Test #0 and Test #4). Additionally, these are also skewed to be very low because the free cash flow is non-existent at the moment (which is basically making the DCF show zilch). I do consider this a very real and pertinent risk in this company. The free cash flow is currently low to negative because they are investing heavily in cap ex. This could be a short-term problem or it could be an ongoing problem. There is a pretty famous quote that says the best way to "become a millionaire is to invest $2 million dollars in an airline". Warren Buffett said (in his 2007 shareholder letter) "The worst sort of business is one that grows rapidly, requires significant capital to engender the growth, and then earns little or no money. Think airlines. Here a durable competitive advantage has proven elusive ever since the days of the Wright Brothers. Indeed, if a farsighted capitalist had been present at Kitty Hawk, he would have done his successors a huge favor by shooting Orville down." So over the past 10 years the average FCFPS for Hawaiian Airlines is $.72 but it has swung wildly from big negatives to big positives. Hence the joy of owning a cyclical. The question is will it improve over time. One thing that has changed a bit in the airline industry over the years is there are only a few players and the industry is regulated heavily. It is decently hard to be in the airline business. It is not a monopoly/duopoly but it does have some characteristics of this. The players are competitive but over the years they have stopped price wars for the most part where they lose money to gain share and coexist much more than in the past. This could change at any time. Hawaiian definitely has semi monopoly characteristics in that they basically own certain routes in their market. Competition is coming and will impact their business (this is/has been a known threat for some time). It is actually happening right now as Southwest is finalizing approval to fly US to HA. One thing I was surprised by (and that actually supports the thesis that airlines aren't so bad anymore...particularly this one) is the very decent return on invested capital. It hasn't always been high as over the past 5 years (the 5 years prior to that were lower). But the average is 16.5% and it is currently a bit ahead of that value. This airline is fairing even better than its peers in that respect. It seems they are making prudent investments as they allocate capital. Debt has decreased dramatically over the past 10 years (and is below the industry average), shares outstanding has decreased fairly dramatically from the all-time high (down 23%). The Free Cash Flows are very choppy (which leads to almost non-existent FCF) and so are the Cap Ex investments. Regardless, if they are able to invest this cash flow and earn a high return on it that is a good sign long term. I am hopeful that their seemingly great capital allocation will play out in their current very high Cap Ex number and that this investment will lead to good future results. I have no reason to doubt management in this respect at this point. So, what am I doing? I'm not going to sell this stock right now (but also not going to add to my position either). There might be better things to invest in and I will look for those and if anything comes up I'll reassess then. Until then I don't expect this stock to rise dramatically to new highs but I also don't see terrible downside risk (barring some sort of overall collapse/recession). If that happens then this cyclical company will likely fall much further. I expect it to probably just hold its own and trade fairly sideways for some time and if things improve beyond the very conservative estimates that I've used to value this business I'll be nicely surprised. Not a bad company at all and one I won't mind owning. I’m sharing my analysis here. If you have thoughts on it I’d love to hear them hit me up on Twitter @mymoneytrainer

    Write Up

    I purchased this stock back in November 2017 @ $37.89. These are my thoughts after reviewing this when I completed my initial purchase in 2017:

    PRO #1 - Great airline that is well run. Has not always been the case.PRO #2 - Has 80-90%% market share on interisland travel (25% of revenue). Their one competitor (Island Air) went bankrupt.PRO #3 - Has diversified out of simply interisland flights and US to HA flights (50% of revenue) to capture intercontinental traffic from other areas (25% of revenue). CON #1 - CEO just retired (planned). This is the CEO that has gotten the company in the good shape it is in today.CON #2 - Debt to equity is a bit high but it has been dropping like a rock (and is down to 53% in most recent quarter). Their quality score that I’m calcing is better than the other airlines (even those with lower debt ratios). So they are focused on it and improving it so I’ll take a chance on it continuing (although it will slow with buybacks and dividends…and cap ex).CON #3 - Other airlines are adding routes from US to Hawaii. 1) Southwest says they are adding routes to Hawaii in 2018-19 (and maybe interisland too). 2) United Continental said they would enter market too. 3) The threat of competition has been on the table for a while but hasn’t become official yet.

    I'm using very conservative earnings estimates in my analysis (which is why some of my very important tests are showing low certainty--especially Test #0 and Test #4). Additionally, these are also skewed to be very low because the free cash flow is non-existent at the moment (which is basically making the DCF show zilch). I do consider this a very real and pertinent risk in this company. The free cash flow is currently low to negative because they are investing heavily in cap ex.

So over the past 10 years the average FCFPS for Hawaiian Airlines is $.72 but it has swung wildly from big negatives to big positives. Hence the joy of owning a cyclical. The question is will it improve over time.

    One thing that has changed a bit in the airline industry over the years is there are only a few players and the industry is regulated heavily. It is decently hard to be in the airline business.

    Used $4.46 EPS in my original analysis. The average analyst (13 of them) right now for the next two years is $4.27 and $4.21 respectively. So not terribly off.

    Regardless, I'm not in the business of using averages anymore. I like to use the worst estimates available in my planning. I'm going to use the average of the low estimates for the upcoming 2 years (which are substantially lower than the current average).

    Hurdle Returns (vs. Risk Free)

    The analyst estimate I'm using is the average low which is 38% lower than the current average. This should be a safe number to use. This also produces an 8% return which is not horrible compared against the overall market. The DCF a mess right now because they are investing the free cash flow into CapEx right now (not necessarily a negative).

    Certainty Rating

    Cyclical company that doesn't stack up well against the broad market in a few ways. In general it looks good against other airlines. So the low quality score is impacted due to that.

    Excluded negative year's PE. Currently at 7x which is closer to the average high of 8.3x than the average low of 4.0x. All time low is 1x and all time high is 12.8x so seeing a 7x seems low against most of the market but not really. This is a cyclical business.

    So at 12% this is a good scenario. The FCF is abnormally low at the moment due to high Cap Ex (which could continue or could be outsized for a bit). It is fine that these balance out.

    Used $4.46 EPS in my original analysis. The average analyst (13 of them) right now for the next two years is $4.27 and $4.21 respectively. So not terribly off.

    For this case I'm using the average.

    Sales have grown considerably over the ten years. But it has slowed recently. As competition enters market will sales remain consistent? Or will they fall? Can they offset any losses by continuing international route expansion?

    Earnings growth has slowed (and actually have fallen from 2016 levels).

    Free Cash Flow

    Free Cash Flow - Is 1) Consistent, 2) Strong, and 3) Growing At A Steady Rate.

    Currently at near all time highs as a percentage of sales and coming off near all time lows. Pretty choppy. If we are going into a recession the current high level of investment might not fair too well

    The high values from 2014-2015 are mainly due to low cap ex investment (which is being paid for now).

    Cap Ex - Is Consistent.

    Debt To Equity - Is 1) Consistent, and 2) Low (and/or Lowering Quickly).

    Debt To Equity

    The company's debt picture has stabilized recently and stabilized at near all time lows for the company. I have not issues really with anything going on here. They are seemingly taking on a bit more debt right now to do share buybacks (and seem to be active doing this now). There debt level is better than the industry as a whole already/still.

    Dividend Sustainability

    Payout Ratio

    They just started paying a dividend and the payout ratio is low. So no issues here.

    Current Buyback Program

    I'm not sure exactly what the current buyback program is but the current shares outstanding are below one of my current datasets (which tells me they are buying back stock actively). The shares are pretty depressed right now in price so probably not a bad investment of capital. Shares outstanding are down 23% from all time highs.

    There is actually some insider ownership showing on the chart (1%ish). Not bad. Director bought back in March at $37.79 to increase his shares by 1/3rdish.

    Explanation: Oversold back in last October 2017 (about where I bought it). Nearly now.

    MACD (Crossing?)

    Money Flow (Oversold?)

    Just crossed the 200 day…not good.

    NA

    No realy trend/turn here to reverse down/flat trend.

    No real trend in P&F chart.

    The stock was trending up strongly over 2015-2017 (and was bouncing along overbought every step of the way). It reset in Oct 2017 and moved into oversold territory and then traded pretty sideways for the remainder of the year. It dipped again early this year and got near oversold territory again. There is a lot of price support at current levels even dating back to 2015. The 50/200 cross that recently occurred is not welcome news (and points towards the sideways/downtrend remaining in place). I don't expect this stock to take off to new highs anytime soon but I also don't anticipate sharp losses/drawdowns (without a major recession...which could obviously happen).
