U.S. airlines are beginning to emerge from the pandemic-induced crisis that has opened doors for carriers catering to domestic leisure travel, which is rebounding quicker than business and international travel, particularly as more people receive COVID-19 vaccines.
Budget carriers are also expected to bounce back quicker than larger rivals, thanks to their lower-cost structures and focus on domestic leisure travel.
Frontier, which withdrew listing plans in July, filed again this month, while Apollo Global Management-backed Sun Country Airlines made its successful stock market debut.
Frontier plans to sell 30 million shares priced between $19 and $21 per share, aiming to raise about $630 million.
Denver, Colorado-based Frontier, which is owned by private equity firm Indigo Partners, flies to more than 100 destinations in the United States, Mexico and the Caribbean and operates 100-plus Airbus A320 family aircrafts.
Citigroup (NYSE:C), Barclays (LON:BARC), Deutsche Bank (DE:DBKGn) Securities, Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS) and Evercore ISI are the lead underwriters for Frontier’s offering.
Frontier will list its stock on the Nasdaq under the symbol “ULCC”.
