7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations.
The following discussion
includes certain forward-looking statements within the
meaning of the safe harbor protections of Section 27A of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Statements that
include words such as "believe," "expect," "should," intend,"
"may," "anticipate," "likely," "contingent," "could," "may,"
or other future-oriented statements, are forward-looking
statements. Such forward-looking statements include, but are
not limited to, statements regarding our business plans,
strategies and objectives, and, in particular, statements
referring to our expectations regarding our ability to
continue as a going concern, generate increased market
awareness of, and demand for, our service, realize
profitability and positive cash flow, and timely obtain
required financing. These forward-looking statements involve
risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to
differ from anticipated results. The forward-looking
statements are based on our current expectations and what we
believe are reasonable assumptions given our knowledge of the
markets; however, our actual performance, results and
achievements could differ materially from those expressed in,
or implied by, these forward-looking statements.
Our fiscal year ends on
December 31. References to a fiscal year refer to the
calendar year in which such fiscal year ends.
OVERVIEW
The Company was organized in
the State of New York on August 24, 1989. Its objective is to
provide scheduled air transportation from the U.S. to Russia,
and former Soviet Union countries.
Baltia is currently in Phase
II of the FAA Air Carrier Certification process. Upon
completion of the Air Carrier Certification, Baltia intends
to commence scheduled non-stop service from its Base of
Operations at Terminal 4, JFK Int'l Airport in New York to
Pulkovo II Int'l Airport of St. Petersburg.
Baltia intends to provide
full service, i.e. passenger, cargo and mail, and will not be
dependent upon one or a few major customers. Baltia has two
registered trademarks "BALTIA" and "VOYAGER CLASS" and five
trademarks subject to registration.
The accompanying
consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a
going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of
assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal
course of business. The Company has capital which management
believes is sufficient to start revenue operations on the
JFK-St. Petersburg route. The Company's operational success
may be dependent upon its timely procuring significant
external debt and/or equity financing to fund its immediate
and nearer-term operations, and subsequently realizing
operating cash flows from ticket sales sufficient to sustain
its longer-term operations and growth initiatives.
PLAN OF OPERATION
We believe that we have
financial capability to commence revenue flight operations.
During 2012 and into 2013 we continued to finance our
operations through the issuance of our common stock. Until
revenue operations begin, our monthly expenditures for
administrative and regulatory compliance can be controlled at
about $200,000-$400,000. Approximately $1,500,000 is budgeted
for certification tasks, and $500,000 for general and
administrative expenses. At the time flight service is
inaugurated the Company plans to have approximately 20
management and 45 staff personnel.
There can be no assurance
that additional financing will be available on terms
favorable to us or at all. If adequate funds are not
available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may
not be able to fund operations.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
Our discussion and analysis
of our financial condition and results of operations are
based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the U.S. The preparation of our financial statements
requires us to make certain estimates, judgments and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Our estimates, judgments and
assumptions are continually re-evaluated based upon available
information and experience. Because of the use of estimates
inherent in the financial reporting process, actual results
could differ from those estimates. Areas in which significant
judgment and estimates are used include, but are not limited
to, valuation of long-lived assets and deferred income
taxes.
Valuation of Long-Lived
Assets: We review the recoverability of our long- lived
assets, including buildings, equipment and intangible assets,
when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate
that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable.
The assessment of possible impairment is based on our ability
to recover the carrying value of the asset from the expected
future pre-tax cash flows (undiscounted and without interest
charges) of the related operations. If these cash flows are
less than the carrying value of such asset, an impairment
loss is recognized for the difference between estimated fair
value and carrying value. Our primary measure of fair value
is based on discounted cash flows. The measurement of
impairment requires management to make estimates of these
cash flows related to long-lived assets, as well as other
fair value determinations.
We amortize the costs of
other intangibles (excluding goodwill) over their estimated
useful lives unless such lives are deemed indefinite.
Amortizable intangible assets are tested for impairment based
on undiscounted cash flows and, if impaired, written down to
fair value based on either discounted cash flows or appraised
values. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested
for impairment, at least annually, and written down to fair
value as required.
The Company complies with
FASB ASC Topic 718 "Compensation - Stock Compensation," which
establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in
which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or
services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity
incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are
based on the fair value of the entity's equity instruments or
that may be settled by the issuance of those equity
instruments. FASB ASC Topic 718 focuses primarily on
accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains
employee services in share-based payment transactions. FASB
ASC Topic 718 requires an entity to measure the cost of
employee services received in exchange for an award of equity
instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award
(with limited exceptions). That cost will be
recognized
over the period during which
an employee is required to provide service in exchange for
the award the requisite service period (usually the vesting
period). No compensation costs are recognized for equity
instruments for which employees do not render the requisite
service. The grant-date fair value of employee share options
and similar instruments will be estimated using
option-pricing models adjusted for the unique characteristics
of those instruments (unless observable market prices for the
same or similar instruments are available). If an equity
award is modified after the grant date, incremental
compensation cost will be recognized in an amount equal to
the excess of the fair value of the modified award over the
fair value of the original award immediately before the
modification.
Our primary type of
share-based compensation consists of stock-based awards. We
use the fair value method in accordance with ASC 718. We also
may use stock options. We use the Black-Scholes option
pricing model in valuing options. The inputs for the
valuation analysis of the options include the market value of
the Company's common stock, the estimated volatility of the
Company's common stock, the exercise price of the warrants
and the risk free interest rate.

Income taxes: The Company
accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC Topic
740 "Income Taxes," which requires accounting for deferred
income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred
income tax asset and liabilities are computed for difference
between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and
liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts
in the future based on the enacted tax laws and rates
applicable to the periods in which the differences are
expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are
established, when necessary, to reduce the deferred income
tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
The determination of the
Company's provision for income taxes requires significant
judgment, the use of estimates, and the interpretation and
application of complex tax laws. Significant judgment is
required in assessing the timing and amounts of deductible
and taxable items and the probability of sustaining uncertain
tax positions. The benefits of uncertain tax positions are
recorded in the Company's financial statements only after
determining a more-likely-than-not probability that the
uncertain tax positions will withstand challenge, if any,
from tax authorities. When facts and circumstances change,
the Company reassesses these probabilities and records any
changes in the financial statements as appropriate.
In accordance with GAAP, the
Company is required to determine whether a tax position of
the Company is more likely than not to be sustained upon
examination by the applicable taxing authority, including
resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes,
based on the technical merits of the position. The tax
benefit to be recognized is measured as the largest amount of
benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being
realized upon ultimate settlement. De-recognition of a tax
benefit previously recognized could result in the Company
recording a tax liability that would reduce stockholders
equity. This policy also provides guidance on thresholds,
measurement, de-recognition, classification, interest and
penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and
transition that is intended to provide better financial
statement comparability among different entities.
Management's conclusions regarding this policy may be subject
to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors
including, but not limited to, on-going analyses of and
changes to tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.
Generally, the tax filings are no longer subject to income
tax examinations by major taxing authorities for years before
2007. Any potential examinations may include questioning the
timing and amount of deductions, the nexus of income among
various tax jurisdictions and compliance with U.S. federal,
state and local tax laws. The Company's management does not
expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits
will materially change over the next twelve months.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
We had no revenues during
the fiscal years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, because
(1) we did not fly aircraft in passenger, charter, or freight
service, and (2) we could not sell tickets for those
services.
Our general and
administrative expenses decreased by $13,197,702 to
$11,125,526 during fiscal year ended December 31, 2012
as compared to an increase of $5,762,390 during the fiscal
year ended December 31,2011. This decrease resulted from the
reduction in costs in connection with air carrier
certification.
Primarily as a result of air
carrier certification, we incurred a net loss of $13,623,873
during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 as compared to
a net loss of $25,075,497 during the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2011.
Our future ability to
achieve profitability in any given future fiscal period
remains highly contingent upon us beginning flight
operations. Our ability to realize revenue from flight
operations in any given future fiscal period remains highly
contingent upon us obtaining significant equity infusions
and/or long-term debt financing sufficient to fund initial
operations. Even if we were to be successful in procuring
such funding, there can be no assurance that we will be
successful in commencing revenue operations or, if commenced,
that such operations would be profitable.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL
RESOURCES
Since our inception, we have
incurred substantial operating and net losses, as well as
negative operating cash flows. As of December 31, 2012, we
had cash of $12,326, decrease of $45,064 from the cash
balance of $57,390 reported at December 31,2011. Our
stockholders' equity was $147,187 at December 31, 2012, a
decrease of $2,321,403 from the balance of $2,457,590
reported at December 31, 2011.
Our operating activities
utilized $3,683,065 in cash during the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2012, a decrease of $3,540,116 from the
$7,223,181 in cash utilized during the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2011.
Our financing activities
provided $3,626,882 and $7,807,242 in cash during the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Cash flows through investing
activities was $11,119 for the year ended December 31, 2012,
an increase of $590,629 from the net cash used by investing
activities for the year ended December 31, 2011. The
increase is attributable to the proceeds of $144,164 received
from the sale of a used 747 aircraft, partially offset by
$133,045 used for the purchase of equipment.
Off-Balance Sheet
Arrangements: We do not have any off-balance sheet
arrangements which have, or are reasonably likely to have, an
effect on our financial condition, financial statements,
revenues or expenses.

Evaluation of Disclosure
Controls and Procedures. As of the end of the period covered
by this report, we conducted an evaluation under the
supervision and with the participation of our chief executive
officer and chief financial officer of our disclosure
controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and
Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based upon this
evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial
officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures
are effective to ensure that information required to be
disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under
the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported, within the time periods specified in the
Commission's rules and forms.
Management's Annual Report
on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our management
is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate
internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule
13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over
financial reporting is a process designed to provide
reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial
reporting and the preparation of financial statements for
external purposes of accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States.
Because of its inherent
limitations, internal control over financial reporting may
not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those
systems determined to be effective can provide only
reasonable assurance of achieving their control
objectives.
Our management evaluated the
effectiveness of our internal control over financial
reporting as of December 31, 2012. Based on this
evaluation, our management concluded that, as of December 31,
2012, our internal control over financial reporting was
effective.
This annual report does not
include an attestation report of our registered public
accounting firm regarding internal control over financial
reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation
by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to
temporary rules of the SEC that permit the company to provide
only management's report in this annual report.
Changes in Internal Control
Over Financial Reporting. There was no change in our internal
controls or in other factors that could affect these controls
during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected,
or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal
control over financial reporting. While existing controls may
be adequate at present, upon the commencement of flight
revenue service we intend to implement controls appropriate
for airline operations.

* These columns represent
the grant date fair value of the awards as calculated in
accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718,
Compensation
– Stock Compensation.
The fair value of these equity
awards on the date of grant was approximately
$5,131,000 and $12,714,000 for stock awards for the
years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011. The fair value was
estimated using the Black-Sholes option pricing model with
the following assumptions: risk free interest rate of 3.0%
and 4.4%, for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011,
respectively, no dividend yield, expected lives between one
and five years, and volatility of 200%. The expected term of
the equity instruments granted is based on the
“simplified method for “plain vanilla”
options discussed in SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin
(“SAB”) No. 107, as amended by SAB No. 110. The
expected volatility is derived from historic volatility of
the Company’s stock on the OTCBB for a period that
matches the expected term of the equity award. The risk-free

REPORT OF
INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Years Ended December 31, 2012 and
2011
Board of Directors and
Shareholders Baltia Air Lines, Inc. New York, NY
I have audited the
accompanying balance sheets of Baltia Air Lines, Inc. ("the
Company") as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 and the statements
of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the
years then ended and for the period from January 1, 2008 to
December 31, 2012. The financial statements for the period
from inception to December 31, 2007 were audited by other
auditors whose reports included an explanatory paragraph that
expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability
to continue as a going concern. My opinion on the
statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit and
cash flows for the period from inception to December 31,
2007, insofar as it relates to amounts for prior periods
through December 31, 2007, is based solely on the report of
the other auditors. These financial statements are
the responsibility of the Company's management. My
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on my audit.
I conducted my audits in
accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards
require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatements. I was not engaged to
perform an audit of its internal control over financial
reporting. My audits included consideration of internal
control over financial reporting as a basis for designing
audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances,
but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Company's internal control over
financial reporting. Accordingly, I express no such opinion.
An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management,
as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. I believe that my audits provide a reasonable
basis for my opinion. In my opinion, these financial
statements present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of Baltia Air Lines, Inc. as of December
31, 2012 and 2011 and the results of its operations and its
cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States.
In my opinion, the financial
statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Baltia Air Lines, Inc. as
of December 31, 2012 and the results of its operations and
its cash flows for the year period ended December 31, 2012 in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States.
The accompanying financial
statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will
continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 9 of the
financial statements, the Company has incurred a deficit
during its development stage of approximately $88 million and
consumed approximately $24 million of cash due to its
operating activities. The Company may not have adequate
readily available resources to fund operations through
December 31, 2012. This raises substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
Management's plans in regard to these matters are also
described in Note 9. The financial statements do not include
any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis
of Presentation
: The financial statements have been
presented in a “development stage” format. Since
inception, our primary activities have been raising of
capital, obtaining financing and of obtaining route authority
and approval from the DOT and the FAA. We have not commenced
our principal revenue producing activities.
Use
of Estimates:
The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles requires our management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statement and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from the
estimates.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents:
For financial statement
presentation purposes, we consider those short-term, highly
liquid investments with original maturities of three months
or less to be cash or cash equivalents. There are no cash
equivalents at December 31, 2012 and 2011.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments:
FASB ASC 825, “
Financial
Instruments
,”
requires entities to disclose the fair value of financial
instruments, both assets and liabilities recognized and not
recognized on the balance sheet, for which it is practicable
to estimate fair value. FASB ASC 825 defines fair value of a
financial instrument as the amount at which the instrument
could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing
parties. At December 31, 2012 and 2011, the carrying
value of certain financial instruments (cash and cash
equivalents, accounts payable and accrued expenses.)
approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the
instruments or interest rates, which are comparable with
current rates.
Fair
Value Measurements:
FASB ASC 820 defines fair value
and establishes a framework for measuring fair value and
establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the
inputs to the inputs to the valuation techniques. Fair value
is the price that would be received to sell an asset or
amount paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date. A fair
value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the
asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal
market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a
principal market, the most advantageous market. Valuation
techniques that are consistent with the market, income or
cost approach, as specified by FASB ASC 820, are used to
measure fair value.
Fair
Value Hierarchy:
FASB
ASC 820 specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based
upon whether the inputs to those valuation techniques reflect
assumptions other market participants would use based upon
market data obtained from independent sources (observable
inputs), or reflect the Company’s own assumptions of
market participant valuation (unobservable inputs). In
accordance with FASB ASC 820, these two types of inputs have
created the following fair value hierarchy:
-
Level 1 – Quoted
prices in active markets that are unadjusted and
accessible at the measurement date for identical,
unrestricted assets or liabilities.
-
Level 2 – Quoted
prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets
that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets
and liabilities in active markets or financial
instruments for which significant inputs are
observable, either directly or indirectly.
-
Level 3 – Prices
or valuations that require inputs that are both
significant to the fair value measurement and
unobservable.
FASB ASC 820 requires the
use of observable market data if such data is available
without undue cost and effort.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Measurement of Fair
Value
The Company
measures fair value as an exit price using the procedures
described below for all assets and liabilities measured at
fair value. When available, the Company uses unadjusted
quoted market prices to measure fair value and classifies
such items within Level 1. If quoted market prices are not
available, fair value is based upon internally developed
models that use, where possible, current market-based or
independently-sourced market parameters such as interest
rates and currency rates. Items valued using internally
generated models are classified according to the lowest level
input or value driver that is significant to the valuation.
Thus, an item may be classified in Level 3 even though there
may be inputs that are readily observable. If quoted market
prices are not available, the valuation model used generally
depends on the specific asset or liability being valued. The
determination of fair value considers various factors
including interest rate yield curves and time value
underlying the financial instruments.
Property
and Equipment:
Property and equipment are
recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
assets, generally 5-15 years. Expenditures for renewals and
betterments are capitalized. Expenditures for minor items,
repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as
incurred. Gain or loss upon sale or retirement due to
obsolescence is reflected in the operating results in the
period the event takes place.
Valuation
of Long-Lived Assets:
We review the recoverability of
our long-lived assets, including buildings, equipment and
intangible assets, when events or changes in circumstances
occur that indicate that the carrying value of the asset may
not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is
based on our ability to recover the carrying value of the
asset from the expected future pre-tax cash flows
(undiscounted and without interest charges) of the related
operations. If these cash flows are less than the carrying
value of such asset, an impairment loss is recognized for the
difference between estimated fair value and carrying value.
Our primary measure of fair value is based on discounted cash
flows. The measurement of impairment requires management to
make estimates of these cash flows related to long-lived
assets, as well as other fair value determinations.
We amortize the costs of other
intangibles (excluding goodwill) over their estimated useful
lives unless such lives are deemed indefinite. Amortizable
intangible assets are tested for impairment based on
undiscounted cash flows and, if impaired, written down to
fair value based on either discounted cash flows or appraised
values. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested
for impairment, at least annually, and written down to fair
value as required.
Stock-Based
Compensation Plans:
Stock-based awards are accounted
for using the fair value method in accordance with ASC
718,
Share-Based
Payments.
Our
primary type of share-based compensation consists of stock
options. We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model in
valuing options. The inputs for the valuation analysis of the
options include the market value of the Company’s
common stock, the estimated volatility of the Company’s
common stock, the exercise price of the warrants and the risk
free interest rate.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Earnings
per Common Share:
Basic earnings per share is
computed by dividing income available to common shareholders
(the numerator) by the weighted-average number of common
shares outstanding (the denominator) for the period. Diluted
earnings per share assume that any dilutive convertible
securities outstanding were converted, with related preferred
stock dividend requirements and outstanding common shares
adjusted accordingly. It also assumes that outstanding common
shares were increased by shares issuable upon exercise of
those stock options for which market price exceeds the
exercise price, less shares which could have been purchased
by us with the related proceeds. In periods of losses,
diluted loss per share is computed on the same basis as basic
loss per share as the inclusion of any other potential shares
outstanding would be anti-dilutive. All options have
either expired or been cancelled during 2012. No adjustment
has been made to the weighted-average number of shares
outstanding in the calculation of earnings per share. For
2011, the earnings per share calculation excluded options of
5,556,818 because they were anti-dilutive.
Income
Taxes:
We have
adopted ASC 740,
Accounting for
Income Taxes.
Pursuant to ASC 740, we are
required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating
losses carried forward. The potential benefits of net
operating losses have not been recognized in these financial
statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more
likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses
carried forward in future years.
We must make certain
estimates and judgments in determining income tax expense for
financial statement purposes. These estimates and judgments
occur in the calculation of certain tax assets and
liabilities, which arise from differences in the timing of
recognition of revenue and expense for tax and financial
statement purposes.
Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are determined based on the differences between
financial reporting and the tax basis of assets and
liabilities using the tax rates and laws in effect when the
differences are expected to reverse. ASC 740 provides for the
recognition of deferred tax assets if realization of such
assets is more likely than not to occur. Realization of our
net deferred tax assets is dependent upon our generating
sufficient taxable income in future years in appropriate tax
jurisdictions to realize benefit from the reversal of
temporary differences and from net operating loss, or NOL,
carryforwards. We have determined it more likely than not
that these timing differences will not materialize and have
provided a valuation allowance against substantially all of
our net deferred tax asset. Management will continue to
evaluate the realizability of the deferred tax asset and its
related valuation allowance. If our assessment of the
deferred tax assets or the corresponding valuation allowance
were to change, we would record the related adjustment to
income during the period in which we make the determination.
Our tax rate may also vary based on our results and the mix
of income or loss in domestic and foreign tax jurisdictions
in which we operate.
Effective
January 1, 2007, the Company adopted FASB guidelines that
address the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or
expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in
the financial statements. Under this guidance, we may
recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only
if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be
sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on
the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits
recognized in the financial statements from such a position
should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a
greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon
ultimate settlement. This guidance also provides guidance on
derecognition, classification, interest and penalties on
income taxes, accounting in interim periods and requires
increased disclosures. At the date of adoption, and as of
December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company did not have a
liability for unrecognized tax benefits, and no adjustment
was required at adoption.
The
Company’s policy is to record interest and penalties on
uncertain tax provisions as income tax expense. As of
December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company has not accrued
interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.
Additionally, tax years 2007 through 2012 remain open to
examination by the major taxing jurisdictions to which the
Company is subject.
Upon the
attainment of taxable income by the Company, management will
assess the likelihood of realizing the tax benefit associated
with the use of the carryforwards and will recognize a
deferred tax asset at that time.

Recent
Accounting Pronouncements:
Recently
Adopted Standards
In December 2011, the FASB
issued ASU No. 2011-11, “Balance Sheet (Topic 210):
Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and
Liabilities.” This ASU
requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting
and related arrangements to enable users of its financial
statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on
its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 will be applied
retrospectively and is effective for annual and interim
reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The
Company does not expect adoption of this standard to have a
material impact on its results of operations, financial
condition, or liquidity.
Other recent accounting
pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging
Issues Task Force), the AICPA, and the Securities Exchange
Commission (the "SEC") did not or are not believed by
management to have a material impact on the Company's present
or future financial statements.

Organization and Operations
The Company
was formed as a U.S. airline on August 24, 1989 in the State
of New York. Our objective is to provide scheduled air
transportation from the U.S. to Russia, the Baltic States and
Ukraine. In 1991, the Department of Transportation (DOT)
granted the Company routes to provide non-stop passenger,
cargo and mail service from JFK to St. Petersburg and from
JFK to Riga, with online service to Minsk, Kiev and Tbilisi
as well as back up service to Moscow. We have two registered
trademarks "BALTIA" and "VOYAGER CLASS," and five trademarks
subject to registration. Our activities to date have been
devoted principally to raising capital, obtaining route
authority and approval from the DOT and the FAA, training
crews, and conducting market research to develop the
Company's marketing strategy.
Regulatory
Compliance
We intend to
operate as a Part 121 carrier, a heavy jet operator. As such,
following certification we will be required to maintain our
air carrier standards as prescribed by DOT and FAA regulation
and as specified in the FAA approved Company manuals. As part
of its regulatory compliance we will be required to submit
periodic reports of our operations to the DOT.

Stockholders' Equity
Description of
Securities
Common
Stock:
We have
2,850,000,000 authorized shares of Common Stock at
$.0001 par value per share. As of December 31, 2012, a total of
2,464,456,384 shares of Common Stock were issued and outstanding and held by
over 1000 shareholders. Holders of Common Stock are entitled
to receive dividends, when and if declared by
the board of directors, subject to prior rights of holders of
any Preferred Stock then outstanding and to share ratably in
the net assets of the company upon liquidation. Holders of
Common Stock do not have preemptive or other rights to
subscribe for
additional shares. The Certificate of Incorporation does not
provide for cumulative voting. Shares of Common Stock have equal voting,
dividend, liquidation and other rights, and have no
preference, exchange or appraisal rights.
Preferred
Stock:
We are
authorized to issue up to a maximum of 2 million shares
(66,500 shares outstanding) of Preferred Stock. We can issue
these shares as our board of directors shall from time to
time fix by resolution. Our Preferred Stock is not entitled
to share in any dividends declared on the Common Stock and
has no voting rights. Each share is convertible in to 3
shares of Common. The liquidation preference is set by this
conversion formula and results in a pro rata claim on the
Company’s assets based upon the underlying common
shares issuable (199,500) upon conversion.
Recent
Issuance of Unregistered Securities
2012:
Stock Issued
for Cash
We issued 271,270,882 shares
of our common stock in exchange for receiving a total of
$3,626,882 in cash net of offering expenses. The shares were
deemed to have been issued pursuant to an exemption provided
by Section 4(2) of the Act, which exempts from registration
“transactions by an issuer not involving any public
offering.”
Stock
Issued for Services
We issued 329,248,482 shares
of our common stock in exchange for services. The shares were
valued at $7,686,588 or about $0.023 per share which
reflected the weighted average market value at the time of
issuance. 158,100,000 of the shares valued at approximately
$3,888,000 were issued to Igor Dmitrowsky our
president.
2011:

5. Income
Taxes
The Company has
approximately $30.8 million in available net operating loss
carryovers available to reduce future income taxes. These
carryovers expire at various dates through the year 2032. The
Company has adopted ASC 740,
Accounting for
Income Taxes
which
provides for the recognition of a deferred tax asset based
upon the value the loss carry-forwards will have to reduce
future income taxes and management's estimate of the
probability of the realization of these tax benefits. We have
determined it more likely than not that these timing
differences will not materialize and have provided a
valuation allowance against our entire net deferred tax asset
of approximately $6.1 million.
Utilization of federal and
state NOL and tax credit carry-forwards may be subject to a
substantial annual limitation due to the ownership change
limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended, and similar state provisions. The annual limitation
may result in the expiration of NOL and tax credit
carry-forwards before full utilization.
6.
Commitments and Contingencies
Facilities:
The Company leases office
space for its administrative offices, under three month to
month agreements, at a combined monthly rental of
approximately $27,000. In 2012 and 2011 expense was $618,544
and $336,979 respectively.
7.
Long-Term Debt-Related Party:
On December 1, 2010, the
Company entered into a loan arrangement with a company owned
or controlled by one of our directors for a total amount of
$1,150,000. The Company issued a note bearing interest at 9%
per annum payable quarterly and a maturity date of March 31,
2013. The Company will be obligated to repay the note prior
to the maturity date upon raising $4 million or from the
proceeds of operating revenue. As a loan inducement the
Company issued 6.8 million shares of common stock and 3.4
million warrants. A placement fee of $50,000 was paid from
the proceeds of this loan. The note is secured by both
aircraft up to a limit of $2.9 million.
The
Company recorded the relative fair value of the shares and
warrants of $294,297 as additional paid-in capital and
established a discount on the debt. The discount is being
amortized over the life of the note (27 months) at an
effective rate of 14.98%. The note is carried net of the
discount.
8.
Management's Plan of Operation
We believe we currently have
sufficient capital to commence revenue flight operations and
to maintain our current level of operations. During 2012 and
into 2013 we continue to finance our operations through the
issuance of our common stock and the continued exercise of
warrants. Until revenue operations begin, our monthly
expenditures for administrative and regulatory compliance can
be controlled at about $200,000-$400,000. Based on
current reserves we have sufficient capital to support our
development stage operations through the most of 2013.
In 2012 we raised $3.6
million in a private placement in order to start revenue
flight operations. Based on our prior experience with
certification and current preparations the management
believes that the launch budget, previously reviewed by the
DOT, will be adequate to complete certification and to
commence flight service. Approximately $300,000 is budgeted
for aircraft, $450,000 for certification tasks, and $300,000
for general and administrative expenses. At the time flight
service is inaugurated the company plans to have
approximately 15 management and 45 staff
personnel.
Management has considered
the overall pipeline effect that enhances the initial cash
position of a startup carrier. It is the industry practice
for passengers to purchase tickets in advance of their
flights while service vendors bill the carrier later.

BALTIA
AIR LINES, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER

8.
Management's Plan of Operation (continued)
In order that a new airline
would not fly empty on day one, approximately 30 days prior
to the expected inaugural date the DOT authorizes sales of
tickets and cargo. Such funds from advance sales, estimated
at approximately $3 mm for the company, accumulate in an
escrow account, and are released upon the issuance of the air
carrier certificate.
There can be no assurance
that additional financing will be available on terms
favorable to us or at all. If adequate funds are not
available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may
not be able to fund expansion.
9. Going
Concern
The accompanying financial
statements have been prepared assuming that the company will
continue as a going concern, which contemplates the
recoverability of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities
in the normal course of business. Currently, the Company has
a minimum cash balance available for the payment of ongoing
operating expenses, and its operations has not of yet
produced any revenue, which would allow it to cover its
operational costs and allow it to continue as a going
concern. Since inception, the Company has incurred a deficit
during its development stage of approximately $88.0 million
and consumed approximately $21.0 million. The continued
operations of the Company is dependent upon implementing
airline service that would generate profits and raising
sufficient capital through placement of its common stock or
issuance of debt securities, which would enable the Company
to carry out its business plan.
In the event we do not
generate sufficient funds from revenues or financing through
the issuance of our common stock or from debt financing, we
may be unable to fully implement our business plan and pay
our obligations as they become due, any of which
circumstances would have a material adverse effect on our
business prospects, financial condition, and results of
operations. The accompanying financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might be required should the
Company be unable to recover the value of its assets or
satisfy its liabilities.
During 2012 and into 2011,
we continue to finance our operations through the issuance of
our common stock and the continued exercise of warrants.
Until revenue operations begin, our monthly expenditures for
administrative and regulatory compliance can be controlled at
about $200,000-$400,000.
In 2012, we raised $3.6
million a private placement in order to start revenue flight
operations. Revenue services did not start in 2011 as
planned, and, as of April 15, 2013, we still have not
implemented revenue producing services. At the time flight
service is inaugurated, the company plans to have
approximately 15 management and 45 staff personnel.
Management has considered
the overall pipeline effect that enhances the initial cash
position of a startup carrier. It is the industry practice
for passengers to purchase tickets in advance of their
flights while service vendors bill the carrier later.
In order that a new airline
would not fly empty on day one, approximately 30 days prior
