Interim Financial Statements of Icelandair Group hf. 30 June 2021


ICELANDAIR GROUP

Endorsement and Statement by the Board of Directors and the CEO

The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements of Icelandair Group hf. for the period from 1 January to 30 June 2021 have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) for Interim Financial Statements (IAS 34). The Interim Financial Statements comprise the Consolidated Interim Financial Statements of Icelandair Group hf. (the "Company") and its subsidiaries together referred to as the "Group". All amounts are stated in thousands of USD.

According to the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, loss for the period from 1 January to 30 June 2021 amounted to USD 85.0 million. Total comprehensive loss for the period was USD 69.0 million. Equity at 30 June 2021 amounted to USD 163.8 million, including share capital in the amount of USD 213.0 million, according to the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. Reference is made to the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity regarding information on changes in equity.

Statement by the Board of Directors and the CEO

The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements for the six months ended 30 June 2021 have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the EU and additional Icelandic disclosure requirements for Consolidated Financial Statements of listed companies. The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements have neither been audited nor reviewed by the Company's independent auditors.

The second quarter of 2021 showed the first signs of a turnaround in international passenger travel although the increase in production is starting later than projected at the beginning of the year. This is explained by vaccination delays, a surge in virus cases in certain markets, that have led to delays in the easing of border and social restrictions, and new variants of the virus. Nonetheless May and June saw a meaningful increase in the flight schedule with both destinations and frequency being added weekly. Icelandair's flight schedule in the second quarter translated to 15% of ASK compared to Q2 2019.

Despite clear signs of a turnaround Icelandair continues to be committed to safeguarding its strong financial and liquidity position. The Group's total liquidity, including assets held for sale and revolving credit facilities, amounted to USD 362 million at 30 June 2021. The prioritization of a strong liquidity and financial position throughout the pandemic has been instrumental in the Company's ability to effectively and efficiently ramp up production as demand has picked up. The Group will continue to closely monitor its cash burn and overall liquidity as markets continue to gradually recover.

The opening of the Icelandic borders to vaccinated travelers from both within and outside Schengen continued to have a positive impact on Icelandair's passenger booking inflow in the quarter. Thus far the recovery is most heavily felt in the TO and FROM segments as the US borders are still closed with poor visibility as to when they might open. While the opening of many European borders to vaccinated US travelers has translated to VIA bookings from the US side the trend suggests that Europeans wishing to travel to the US are opting to hold off on booking their tickets until the opening is announced. Icelandair expects to accelerate its ramp-up in the third quarter and based on current status of the COVID pandemic in key markets and demand, Icelandair expects the capacity in the fourth quarter 2021 to reach 70-80% of the company's 2019 production. Decisions to increase capacity will only be made giving due consideration of the development of the pandemic and changes in travel restrictions in the Company's markets. The flight schedule is thus subject to continuous iteration.

As part of the share offering completed on 17 September 2020 the Company issued warrants to investors that purchased shares. The warrants, which have been listed on the Nasdaq Iceland main market, are in three classes the first of which will be exercisable in August 2021. If all warrant holders in the ICEAIRW130821 warrant class opt to exercise their warrants the total amount of shares subsequently issued would be 1,916,666,667 and the total proceeds to the Company would be ISK 2,165,833,334.

The Company took delivery of three Boeing 737 MAX ("the MAX aircraft") in the quarter and thus has a total of nine MAX aircraft in its fleet, seven of which are in service with the two remaining ones expected to enter service by late August. The aircraft is even more technically reliable and fuel efficient than originally anticipated with a payload range exceeding prior expectations making its suitability for Icelandair's route network outstanding. The aircraft moreover supports the Group's environmental strategy, which is focused on reducing carbon emissions, ensuring responsible environmental management, and driving sustainable procurement. The Group will take delivery of three additional MAX aircraft in winter 2021/2022. Favorable post-COVID market conditions may result in further additions to the fleet the feasibility of which is currently being explored.

Statement by the Board of Directors and the CEO, contd.:

As part of its fleet renewal strategy the Group announced a sale of three of its Boeing 757-200 aircraft ("the 757 aircraft") in Q4 2020 two of which were delivered to its new owner in the second quarter.

On 24 June 2021 the Company announced that it had entered a binding agreement with Bain Capital whereby the Blue Issuer Designated Activity Company ("BIDAC") on Bain Capital's behalf, will acquire 5,659,094,470 new shares in the Company for a total consideration of ISK 8,092,505,092 which will represent a 16.6% stake in the Company. The transaction is subject to a Shareholders' Meeting approval and further conditioned upon BIDAC's representative being elected to the Board of Directors. A Shareholders' Meeting has been called for 23 July 2021. Ülfar Steindörsson, the Chairman of the Board of Icelandair Group, has announced that he will step down as a Board Member at the Shareholders' Meeting subject to the transaction being approved. BIDAC's holdings are subject to a 180-day lock-up period that will commence on the date that the new shares are admitted to trading.

In addition to the new shares, BIDAC will receive a warrant for subscription rights amounting to 25% of the number of new shares now purchased. The warrant will be exercisable during a ten-day period immediately following the publishing of the Company's Q2 2022 results. The warrant allows BIDAC to purchase new ordinary shares in the Company at a price equaling the price per share of the new shares plus 15% annual interest.

On 11 June 2021 the Company signed a share purchase agreement with Nordic Visitor for the latter's acquisition of Iceland Travel, the Company's inbound travel operator. The enterprise value of Iceland Travel amounts to ISK 1,400 million of which ISK 350 million are subject to certain performance metrics over the years 2022 and 2023. The sale is subject to general conditions, among them approval of the Icelandic Competition Authority. The shares will be delivered against payment once all conditions precedent have been fulfilled.

The Company reached an agreement in February 2021 with its co-owner Berjaya Property Ireland Limited on the sale of its remaining 25% equity share in Icelandair Hotels. Delivery of the shares is expected in Q3 2021 following fulfillment of all conditions precedent.

The decision to sell these two entities is in line with the Group's strategy to focus on its core business, aviation and related services.

According to our best knowledge it is our opinion that the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements give a true and fair view of the financial performance of the Group for the six month period ended 30 June 2021, its assets, liabilities and consolidated financial position as at 30 June 2021 and its consolidated cash flows for the period then ended.

Further, in our opinion, the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements and the Endorsement of the Board of Directors and the CEO give a fair view of the development and performance of the Group's operations and its position and describes the principal risks and uncertainties faced by the Group.

The Board of Directors and the CEO have today discussed the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements of Icelandair Group hf. for the period from 1 January to 30 June 2021 and confirm them by means of their signatures.

Notes

1. Reporting entity

Icelandair Group hf. (the "Company") is a public limited liability company incorporated and domiciled in Iceland. The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements of the Company as at and for the six months ended 30 June 2021 comprise the Company and its subsidiaries, together referred to as the "Group" and individually as "Group entities" and the Group's interests in associates. The Group primarily operates in the airline and tourism sectors. The Company is listed on the Nasdaq Main Market Iceland.

The Group's audited Consolidated Financial Statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2020 are available upon request from the Company's registered office at Reykjavíkurflugvöllur in Reykjavík, Iceland or at its website address, www.icelandairgroup.is and at The Icelandic Stock Exchange website address, http://www.nasdaqomxnordic.com.

2. Basis of accounting

The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements for the six months ended 30 June 2021 have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as adopted by the EU and additional Icelandic disclosure requirements for Consolidated Financial Statements of listed companies. These Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting. The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for financial assets and liabilities, which are valued at fair value through other Comprehensive Income. They do not include all the information required for a complete set of IFRS financial statements. However, selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in the Group's financial position and performance since the last annual Consolidated Financial Statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2020.

The accounting policies and methods of computation applied in these Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements are the same as those applied by the Group in its Consolidated Financial Statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2020.

These Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements are presented in U.S. dollars (USD), which is the Group's functional currency. All financial information presented in USD has been rounded to the nearest thousand, except when otherwise indicated.

These Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements were approved for issue by the Board of Directors on 22 July 2021.

These Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements are prepared on a going concern basis. Despite substantial uncertainty the Board of Directors believes that it is appropriate to prepare these Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements on a going concern basis given actions already taken to strengthen the Group's financial standing and liquidity.

3. Use of judgements and estimates

In preparing these Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements, management has made judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to estimates are recognized prospectively. Due to COVID-19, the aviation and travel industries continue to face uncertainty. Travel and/or social restrictions are still in place in many of the Group's important geographical segments. Uncertainty further remains as to when demand for travel will return to more normal levels, i.e. as they were prior to COVID-19. In preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements, management adjusted its estimations and assumptions towards the current circumstances.

The remaining significant judgements made by management in applying the Group's accounting policies and the key sources of estimations of uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2020.

4. Changes in accounting policies

A number of new standards are effective for annual periods beginning after 1 January 2021 and earlier application is permitted; however, the Group has not early adopted the new or amended standards in preparing these Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements and they are not considered to have significant impact on the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements.

5. Operating segments

Segment information is presented in the Condensed Consolidated Iterim Financial Statements in respect of the Group's business segments, which are the primary basis of segment reporting.

The business segment reporting format reflects the Group's management and internal reporting structure. Segment results include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis. Inter-segment pricing is determined on an arm's length basis.

Each entity operates as a single business unit and the management of Icelandair Group assesses performance based on measures including operating profit, and makes resource allocation decisions for the entities based on various performance metrics. The objective in making resource allocation decisions is to optimize consolidated financial results.

Passenger and cargo operations

The largest entity of the Group, the international and domestic passenger airline Icelandair ehf., including its subsidiary Icelandair Cargo, has been identified for financial reporting purposes as a reportable operating segment. Iceland's unique geographical position provides Icelandair with significant strategic advantages. This is encapsulated in Icelandair's ability to serve four markets simultaneously (to, from, via and within Iceland). Icelandair Cargo offers freight services by utilizing the capacity within the aircraft of the Icelandair passenger network as well as with their own freighters.

The parent, Icelandair Group hf., is listed on the Nasdaq Iceland stock exchange and is the holding company. Iceeignir, a real estate company that holds the real estate of Icelandair Group, IceCap, a captive insurance company and A320, a dormant, are platform functions of the business that primarily support the Group entities in this segment and are therefore classified within this segment.

Other group entities

Loftleidir Icelandic, which offers aircraft leasing and consulting services to international passenger airlines and tour operators and Feria, which operates under the name VITA as an outgoing tour operator are also operating segments but do not exceed the quantitative thresholds to be reportable and management has concluded that there are currently no other reasons why they should be separately disclosed.

Iceland Travel is classified as an asset held for sale. A share purchase agreement has been signed that awaits the approval of the Icelandic Competition Authority. Once that along with other conditions precedent have been fulfilled the shares will be delivered against payment.

In Q1 2020 Icelandair Hotels was also classified within this segment. From 3 April 2020, remaining 25% equity of Icelandair Hotels are classified as an investment in associates.

The warrants liabilities are considered Level 2 liabilities on the fair value hierarchy as the determination of fair value includes various assumptions about the future activities and the Company's share price and historical volatility as inputs. No warrants were exercised during the period ending 30 June 2021.

15. Deferred income

Sold unused tickets, fair value of unutilized frequent flyer points and other prepayments are presented as deferred income in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.

Deferred income is specified as follows: 30.6.2021 31.12.2020
Sold unused tickets and vouchers 257,387 157,753
Frequent flyer points 22,063 20,641
Other prepayments 21,772 9,008
Total deferred income 301,222 187,402

The amount allocated to sold unused tickets and vouchers is the book value of fares and fuel surcharges that the Group has collected and is liable for to passengers. Thereof sold tickets with known future travel dates amounted to USD 168.4 million and vouchers amounted to USD 89.0 million. The vouchers are generally valid for 3 years from the date of issuance.

The amount allocated to frequent flyer points is estimated by reference to the fair value of the discounted services for which they could be redeemed, since the fair value of the points themselves is not directly observable. The fair value of the discounted services for which the points, granted through a customer loyalty program, can be redeemed takes into account the expected redemption rate and the timing of such expected redemptions. That amount is recognized as deferred income.

16. Financial instruments and fair values

The fair values of financial assets and liabilities, together with the carrying amounts shown in the Statement of Financial Position, are as follows. The table does not include fair value information for financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value if the carrying amount is a reasonable approximation of fair value:

17. Capital commitments

In 2013, the Group and the Boeing Company signed an agreement for the purchase of sixteen Boeing 737 MAX8 / MAX9 aircraft with an option to purchase an additional eight aircraft. The Group has taken delivery of nine aircraft.

In December 2018 the Group secured a Pre-Delivery Payment (PDP) financing agreement with BOC Aviation (BOCA) for eleven undelivered B737 MAX aircraft. The agreement with BOCA secured financing of PDP's for all undelivered aircraft under the Boeing agreement, as well as a sale and leaseback of two aircraft, which have both been delivered.

In August 2020, the Group reached a settlement with Boeing on compensation for the damages caused by the 22 month long MAX grounding. The total number of aircraft under the purchase agreement from 2013 was reduced from sixteen to twelve, of which three aircraft remain undelivered. The PDP financing agreement with BOCA was amended accordingly and furthermore provides a backstop financing option in the form of sale and leaseback for the remaining unfinanced aircraft.
