Item 8.01 Other Events
On March 25, 2020, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) issued an order (the "SEC Order") under Section 36 (Release No. 34-88465) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), granting exemptions from specified provisions of the Exchange Act and certain rules thereunder. The SEC Order provides conditional relief to public companies that are unable to timely comply with their filing obligations as a result of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) outbreak. The SEC Order provides that a registrant subject to the reporting requirements of Exchange Act Section 13(a) or 15(d), and any person required to make any filings with respect to such registrant, is exempt from any requirement to file or furnish materials with the Commission under Exchange Act Sections 13(a), 13(f), 13(g), 14(a), 14(c), 14(f), 15(d) and Regulations 13A, Regulation 13D-G (except for those provisions mandating the filing of Schedule 13D or amendments to Schedule 13D), 14A, 14C and 15D, and Exchange Act Rules 13f-1, and 14f-1, as applicable, if certain conditions are satisfied.
During the COVID-19 outbreak, Allegiant Travel Company (the “Company” or “we”) has taken steps to reduce the number of personnel physically present at our corporate headquarters and management attention has been focused on cash conservation efforts, transition plans to deal with the massively reduced demand for air service, pursuit of financing alternatives and personnel coordination stemming from these factors. The extraordinary circumstances are also presenting atypical accounting issues which are taking longer to address in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. As a result of these factors and in reliance on the SEC Order, we will file our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter ended March 31, 2020 within 45 days after the May 11, 2020 date when this report would have otherwise been due. We currently expect to be able to file the Form 10-Q by May 31, 2020.
Please see our current report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on April 27, 2020 for risk factors regarding COVID-19 that our shareholders and potential investors should consider with respect to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and results of operations.
