(2) Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act
of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the
registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed? If answer is no,
identify report(s). [X] Yes [ ] No
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
(3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from
the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the
earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion
thereof? [X] Yes [ ] No
If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively
and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable
estimate of the results cannot be made.
The Registrant anticipates it will report net income of approximately $23.5
million for the year ended December 31, 1999 as compared with net income of
$16.6 million for 1998. Revenues for 1999 were approximately $731.3 million as
compared to $703.9 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998. The
increase in revenues is primarily due to additional activity in the Company's
scheduled freight division and air logistics division. The Company increased the
number of flights and price structure for the scheduled freight division
resulting in an increase in revenues of $50.3 million. The air logistics
revenues increased $27.6 million due to an increase in number of trips flown and
the average revenue per trip. These increases were offset by a $45.5 million
decrease in the Company's air freight carrier revenues due primarily to the
elimination of the passenger charter services provided prior to January 1, 1999.
Total costs and expenses for 1999 were $619.2 million as compared to $596.5
million for 1998. The increase in expenses is due to an increase in depreciation
expense due to $306.7 million of capital expenditures during 1998 and 1999, an
increase in the Company's flight expense due to increase revenue for 1999 and an
increase in fuel prices and gallons of fuel consumed. The Company experienced a
decrease in its maintenance expense due to retiring 13 aircraft during 1999 and
selling seven aircraft during the year.
