Current SNCY holders are forcibly converted, lose SNCY liquidity, and will receive ALGT shares (and cash), which materially increases ALGT’s outstanding shares and changes ownership and liquidity profiles.

The merger closed May 13, 2026; SNCY ceased trading May 12 and will be suspended May 14. Each SNCY share converts into $4.10 cash plus 0.1557 of an ALGT share, removing SNCY tradability and replacing it with ALGT exposure and cash.

  • ALGT will issue a material number of shares, diluting existing ALGT holders.
  • Fractional-share treatment or cash‑in‑lieu may reduce value for small holders.
