1 February 20, 2015 Southwest Airlines Co. Current Recommendation Prior Recommendation Neutral Date of Last Change 05/18/2014 Current Price (02/19/15) $43.76 Target Price $53.00 OUTPERFORM SUMMARY (LUV-NYSE) Southwest Airlines posted strong fourth-quarter 2014 results wherein both the top and bottom line surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate. Several strategies like fleet restructuring, introduction of international services and capacity management are poised to drive Southwest Airlines top and bottom line higher. Moreover, the successful integration of AirTran Airways, lower fuel prices, high air travel demand, the winning of slots and expansion of operations at the Reagan and LaGuardia airports are likely to act as tailwinds going forward. Additionally, Southwest Airlines continues to boost shareholders return through dividends and share buybacks. Considering these favorable factors, we maintain our Outperform recommendation on the stock.

2 OVERVIEW Based in Dallas, TX, Southwest Airlines Co. (LUV) is a passenger airline that provides scheduled air transportation in the United States. It primarily provides short-haul, high frequency, point-to-point and low-fare services. Southwest Airlines is a leisure-oriented point-to-point carrier largely in Las Vegas, Chicago (Midway) and Phoenix. The company s point-to-point route structure include services to and from many secondary or downtown airports such as Dallas Love Field, Houston Hobby, Chicago Midway, Baltimore-Washington International, Burbank, Manchester, Oakland, San Jose, Providence, Ft. Lauderdale/Hollywood, and Long Island Islip airports. Southwest Airlines is one of the world s most profitable low-cost airlines that consistently offers the lowest fares. The company sells frequent flyer credits and related services to companies participating in its Rapid Rewards frequent flyer program, including credit card companies, hotels, telecommunication companies and car rental agencies. In May 2011, Southwest Airlines completed the acquisition of AirTran Holdings, which now operates as a wholly owned subsidiary under the name AirTran Airways. REASONS TO BUY Successful execution of strategic initiatives has allowed Southwest Airlines to generate record profits for seven successive quarters with airline traffic increasing 4.3% year over year to billion in the fourth quarter. Also, passenger revenue per available seat mile (PRASM) increased 2.6% year over year. The carrier expects first-quarter 2015 revenues to expand mainly on rising travel demand across the globe. Management also decided to retain 6% expansion of capacity in 2015, in order to meet rising demand. The successful integration of AirTran Airways has not only allowed Southwest Airlines to take over routes formerly operated by AirTran but also operate new flights to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic and Mexico City. The incorporation also aided Southwest Airlines in generating operating synergies of $500 million in The merger may also drive freight revenues by nearly 6% in the first quarter of 2015 in comparison with the last-year quarter. Southwest Airlines has also sought permission from the U.S. Department of Transportation for operating flights to six Latin American destinations from Houston s Hobby airport. In line with its expansion plans, Southwest Airlines stated that it intends to flag off daily nonstop flights to Belize City from Oct 2015 as it ramps up its international service. Furthermore, Southwest Airlines looks to offer daily non-stop services to four destinations in Mexico (Cancun, Mexico City, Puerto Vallarta, and San Jose del Cabo/Los Cabos) starting October The carrier also intends to initiate flights to the Costa Rican capital of San Jose from the same. Moreover, the recent agreement between the U.S. and China governments, to extend the validity of short-term visas for visitors between both nations for up to ten years followed with the extension of student exchange visas from one to five years, will considerably benefit airline companies going forward. Southwest Airlines has introduced a number of initiatives that will boost its performance level in The company has expanded its modern fleet size with new 33 Dash 800s from Boeing and Equity Research LUV Page 2
3 has also sidelined most of the AirTran 717s from the operation. Earlier, it has acquired 12 pairs of slots at New York s LaGuardia (LGA) international airport and in the process has secured permanency for its previously owned 10 slots. The company has also won bids for 27 additional pairs of slots at Washington s Reagan airport (DCA), subject to approval from the U.S. Department of Justice. However, the company is returning a pair of slots at DCA as it did not fit its flight schedule. Southwest has decided to extend daily departures from DCA to 44 from the current 17, thus increasing its operations from the airport more than 2.5 times. Apart from expanding Southwest Airlines reach to 14 destinations, the new low-fare, non-stop services from DCA will strengthen its operations in the capital city. The new flights from Love Field, DCA and LGA coupled with upgradation of fleet will boost the carrier s capacity in 2015 by 2-3%. The company also started offering Beats Music service to flyers on Wi-Fi which we believe will further enrich the in-flight entertainment quotient. Southwest Airlines exited the fourth quarter of 2014 with nearly $3 billion in cash and short-term investments and $1 billion remaining in revolving credit facilities. The company expects to slash debt by $182 million and maintain capital expenditure in between $1.6 billion and $1.7 billion in In the reported quarter, S&P raised its previous rating on Southwest Airlines to BBB. Meanwhile, the carrier maintained $2.7 billion cash flow despite incurring $1.3 billion capital expenditure in the reported quarter. Southwest generated 17.1% pre-tax return on invested capital in the last one year and expects a 15% return (before tax) on its invested capital for the full year. Further, Southwest Airlines is the first low-cost carrier to pay dividend to its shareholders. The company has been paying uninterrupted dividends for the last 153 quarters. Earlier, the airline s board of directors approved a $1 billion share buyback program and also raised its $0.04 quarterly dividend by 50% to $0.06 per share. In the fourth quarter of 2014, the company bought back $200 million worth of shares. Both the actions strongly reflect the company s commitment to enhance shareholder value. RISKS RECENT NEWS Recently, Southwest Airlines signed a four-year employee-friendly deal with its customer service agents and customer representatives. The new agreement is aimed at improving employee welfare by including provisions for pay raise and performance-related bonus payments. In the reported quarter, salaries and wages which form an important component of operating expenses increased 8.3% year over year. Hence, signing of such deals in the future will further drive operating expenses. The airline industry is both capital intensive and labor intensive. Most of the employees at Southwest Airlines are unionized, depending on various U.S. labor organizations. The relation between airlines and labor unions are governed by the Railway Labor Act, which states that a collective bargaining agreement between an airline and a labor union does not expire; instead it becomes amendable as of a stated date. Failure to amend terms and conditions suitably may lead to work stoppages or strikes, and thereby hamper operations. This will lead us to revisit our recommendation on the stock. Southwest Outperforms in Q4 Jan 22, 2015 Southwest Airlines reported earnings of $0.59 a share, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $0.54. This also marks the carrier s sixth consecutive quarter of record profits, achieved on the back of successful execution of its strategic initiatives. Quarterly revenues moved up 4.5% year over year to $4,628 million, ahead of the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $4,590 million. On a year-over-year basis, Passenger and Freight revenues increased 5.1% and 12.2%, respectively, while Other revenues fell 8.9%. Equity Research LUV Page 3
4 Operating Statistics Airline traffic, measured in billions of revenue passenger miles, rose 4.3% year over year to billion in the fourth quarter. Capacity or available seat miles decreased 2.4% to billion, while load factor (percentage of seats filled with passengers) stood at 82% against 80.4% in the year-ago quarter. Meanwhile, passenger revenue per available seat mile (PRASM) increased 2.6% year over year to $ Operating Expenses & Operating Income In the fourth quarter, adjusted operating income scaled up to $621 million from $386 million a year ago, reflecting an operating margin of 13.4%. Total adjusted operating expenses fell 0.9% year over year to $4,007 million. Fuel price (economic) stood at $2.62 per gallon, down from $3.05 a year ago. Consolidated unit cost or cost per available seat mile (CASM), excluding fuel and special items, increased 2.3% year over year to $ Liquidity At the end of the fourth quarter, Southwest Airlines had $2,988 million in cash and short-term investments against $3,152 million in the year-ago quarter. The company had long-term debt (including current portion) of $2,434 million against $2,191 million in the last-year quarter. Southwest Airlines generated operating cash flow of $203 million in the quarter while capital expenditures totaled $467 million. VALUATION Southwest Airlines is currently trading at 12.8x our 2015 earnings estimate. This is at a discount to both the industry average and the S&P 500. With respect to our 2016 earnings estimate, the sock is trading at 12.2x, which is at a premium to the industry average but at a discount to the S&P 500. We believe that Southwest Airlines is committed to sustain its brand and operational excellence based on its strategic initiatives, expected launch of international services, increased ancillary product offering and an improving domestic economy. Further, slot pair wins, leverage from Rapid Rewards program and healthy shareholders return bode well for Southwest Airlines. Hence, we maintain our Outperform rating on the company with a target price of $53.The price target is based on 15.5x our earnings estimate for Equity Research LUV Page 4
