SAKER AVIATION SERVICES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 -
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements of Saker Aviation Services, Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements
and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required
by GAAP for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related footnotes included
in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.
The condensed consolidated balance sheet and statements of cash
flows as of June 30, 2016 and the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016
and 2015 have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all necessary adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) have been included to make the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2016
and its results of operations and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 not misleading. The results of operations
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any full year
or any other interim period.
NOTE 2 –
Liquidity
As of June 30, 2016, we had cash and cash equivalents of $1,337,004
and a working capital surplus of $2,504,309. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, we generated revenue from continuing operations
of $7,031,568 and had net income from continuing operations before taxes of $782,368. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, cash
flows included net cash provided by operating activities of $1,045,662, net cash provided by investing activities of $14,055, and
net cash used in financing activities of $137,374.
On May 17, 2013, we entered into a loan agreement with PNC Bank
(the “PNC Loan Agreement”). The PNC Loan Agreement contained three components: (i) a $2,500,000 non-revolving acquisition
line of credit (the “PNC Acquisition Line”); (ii) a $1,150,000 working capital line (the “PNC Working Capital
Line”); and (iii) a $280,920 term loan (the “PNC Term Loan”).
Proceeds of the PNC Acquisition Line were able to be dispersed,
based on parameters defined in the PNC Loan Agreement, until May 17, 2014 (the “Conversion Date”). As of the Conversion
Date, there was $1,350,000 outstanding under the PNC Acquisition Line. The payment terms provided that 30 days following the Conversion
Date, and continuing on the same day of each month thereafter, we are required to make equal payments of principal over a 60 month
period. Interest on the outstanding principal continues to accrue at a rate equal to one-month LIBOR plus 275 basis points (3.18%
as of June 30, 2016). As of June 30, 2016, there was $787,500 outstanding under the PNC Acquisition Line.
The PNC Working Capital was to have been dispersed for working
capital and general corporate purposes. Interest on outstanding principal accrued at a rate equal to daily LIBOR plus 250 basis
points. The PNC Working Capital Line expired on December 31, 2015, with $0 outstanding.
The PNC Term Loan was utilized to retire our previously outstanding
miscellaneous debt of the same amount. Interest on outstanding principal accrued at a rate equal to one-month LIBOR plus 275 basis
points and principal and interest payments were to be made over a thirty-four month period. At December 31, 2015, all amounts under
the PNC Term loan have been repaid.
The Company is party to a concession agreement, dated as of
November 1, 2008, with the City of New York for the operation of the Downtown Manhattan Heliport (the “Concession Agreement”).
Pursuant to the terms of the Concession Agreement, the Company must pay the greater of 18% of the first $5,000,000 in program year
gross receipts and 25% of gross receipts in excess of $5 million or minimum annual guaranteed payments. The Company paid the City
of New York $1,200,000 in the first year of the term and minimum payments were scheduled to increase to approximately $1,700,000
in the final year of Concession Agreement which now, in accordance with an agreement (the “Agreement”) between the
Company and the New York City Economic Development Corporation (“NYCEDC”), expires on April 30, 2021. In addition to
the extended base term, the City of New York has two one year options to further extend the Concession Agreement. The Agreement
also calls for certain reductions in air tour activity at the Heliport as well as reductions to the Company’s minimum annual
guaranteed payments, which are further detailed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 11, 2016. During the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, we incurred
approximately $1,416,000 and $1,024,000, respectively, in concession fees which are recorded in the cost of revenue.
SAKER AVIATION SERVICES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
On July 13, 2016, the Franchise and Concession Review Committee
of New York City approved an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Concession Agreement between the Company and the City
of New York. The Amendment, which memorializes the Agreement, is filed as an exhibit with this report. In addition to elements
described above, the Amendment redefines the plan year as well as the applicable minimum annual guaranteed payments through the
extended base term and option periods.
The air tour reductions articulated in the Agreement are expected
to negatively impact the Company’s business and financial results as well as those of the Company’s management company
at the Heliport, Empire Aviation which, as previously disclosed, is owned by the children of Alvin Trenk, our CEO and a member
of our Board of Directors. The Company incurred management fees with Empire Aviation of approximately $648,000 and $486,000
during the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, which is recorded in administrative expenses. The Company
and Empire have also contributed to the Helicopter Tourism and Jobs Council (“HTJC”), an association that lobbies on
behalf of the helicopter air tour industry, and which had engaged in discussions with the Mayor’s office in connection with
the Agreement. Mr. Trenk is also an active participant with HJTC, which is managed by his grandson.
As disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the
SEC on July 6, 2015, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement, dated June 30, 2015, by and between the Company and Warren
A. Peck (the “Stock Agreement”). The details of the Stock Agreement are included in that Current Report as well as
in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on April 11, 2016.
On September 30, 2015, the Company and Mr. Peck executed a Closing
Cash Agreement (“the “Closing Agreement”), which was filed with the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2015. The Closing Agreement provided for Mr. Peck to sign over to the Company title to
an aircraft to defer the $250,000 cash consideration due at closing. As further described in the Closing Agreement, the Company
is to receive the $250,000 closing cash payment, plus other identified costs, when the aircraft is subsequently sold. On June 13,
2016, the Company entered into a sale agreement (the “Sale Agreement”) with an unrelated third party to acquire the
aircraft subject to the Closing Agreement. Under the terms of the Sale Agreement, the Company received a down-payment of $30,000,
which was credited against the $250,000 cash consideration owed by Mr. Peck. In addition, the Company will receive monthly payments
of at least $28,000 to satisfy the remainder of the $250,000 cash consideration and $50,000 of the Note owed by Mr. Peck. The $220,000
remaining balance of closing cash consideration, plus receivables associated with the Note, are reflected as a Note Receivable
as of June 30, 2016.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
the Company and our wholly-owned subsidiaries, FirstFlight Heliports, LLC (“FFH”), our FBO at Garden City (Kansas)
Regional Airport (“FBOGC”) and Phoenix Rising Aviation, Inc. (“PRA”), see Note 5, Discontinued Operations.
All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications were made to prior year amounts to
conform to the current year presentation. None of the reclassifications affected the Company’s net income in any period.
Net Income Per Common Share
Net income was $386,868 and $291,117 for the six months ended
June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Basic net income per share applicable to common stockholders is computed based on the weighted
average number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding during the periods presented. Diluted net income per share
reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other instruments to issue common stock were exercised or converted
into common stock. Potentially dilutive securities, consisting of options and warrants, are excluded from the calculation of the
diluted income per share when their exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common stock during the period.

Stock Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation expense for all share-based payment
awards are based on the grant-date fair value. The Company recognizes these compensation costs over the requisite service period
of the award, which is generally the option vesting term. For the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company incurred
stock-based compensation costs of $16,998. Such amounts have been recorded as part of the Company’s selling, general and
administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2016, the unamortized
fair value of the options totaled $8,000.
Option valuation models require the input of highly subjective
assumptions, including the expected life of the option. In management's opinion, the use of such option valuation models does not
necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of the Company’s employee stock options. Management holds
this view partly because the Company's employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded
options and also because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In April 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No.
2014-08 “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant and Equipment (Topic 360) – Reporting
Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity” (ASU 2014-08) which requires entities to
change the criteria for reporting discontinued operations and enhance convergence of the FASB’s and International Accounting
Standard Board’s (IASB) reporting requirements for discontinued operations so as not to be overly complex or difficult to
apply to stakeholders. Only those disposals of components of an entity that represent a strategic shift that has (or will have)
a major effect on the entity’s operations and financial results will be reported as discontinued operations in the financial
statements. ASU 2014-08 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2014 and interim periods thereafter. ASU
2014-08 is effective for the Company’s financial statements for fiscal years beginning January 1, 2015. Based on the Company’s
evaluation of ASU 2014-08, the adoption of this statement on January 1, 2015 did not have a material impact on the Company’s
financial statements.
NOTE 4 -
Inventories
Inventories consist primarily of aviation fuel which the Company
sells to its customers. The Company also maintains fuel inventories for commercial airlines, to which it charges into-plane fees
when servicing commercial aircraft. A summary of inventories as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 is set forth in the table

Item 2 - Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion
should be read together with the accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements and related notes in this report. This
Item 2 contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Undue reliance should not be placed on these forward-looking
statements, which speak only as of the date of this report. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied
in such forward-looking statements. Factors which could cause actual results to differ materially are discussed throughout this
report and include, but are not limited to, those set forth at the end of this Item 2 under the heading "Cautionary Statement
Regarding Forward Looking Statements." Additional factors are under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Company’s
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.
The terms “we,” “us,”
and “our” are used below to refer collectively to the Company and the subsidiaries through which our various businesses
are actually conducted.
OVERVIEW
Saker Aviation Services,
Inc. (“we”, “us”, “our”) is a Nevada corporation. Our common stock, $0.001 par value per share
(the “common stock”), is publicly traded on the OTCQB Marketplace (“OTCQB”) under the symbol “SKAS”.
Through our subsidiaries, we operate in the aviation services segment of the general aviation industry, in which we serve as the
operator of a heliport, a fixed base operation (“FBO”), and as a consultant for a seaplane base that we do not own.
FBOs provide ground-based services, such as fueling and aircraft storage for general aviation, commercial and military aircraft,
and other miscellaneous services.
We were formed on January
17, 2003 as a proprietorship and were incorporated in Arizona on January 2, 2004. We became a public company as a result of a reverse
merger transaction on August 20, 2004 with Shadows Bend Development, Inc., an inactive public Nevada corporation, and subsequently
changed our name to FBO Air, Inc. On December 12, 2006, we changed our name to FirstFlight, Inc. On September 2, 2009, we changed
our name to Saker Aviation Services, Inc.
Our business activities
are carried out as the operator of the Downtown Manhattan (New York) Heliport, as an FBO at the Garden City (Kansas) Regional Airport,
as a consultant to the operator of a seaplane base in New York City, and prior to our divestiture, as an MRO at the Bartlesville
(Oklahoma) Municipal Airport.
The Garden City facility
became part of our company as a result of our acquisition of the FBO assets of Central Plains Aviation, Inc. (“CPA”)
in March 2005.
Our business activities
at the Downtown Manhattan (New York) Heliport facility (the “Heliport”) commenced as a result of the Company’s
award of the Concession Agreement by the City of New York to operate the Heliport, which we assigned to our subsidiary, FirstFlight
Heliports, LLC d/b/a Saker Aviation Services (“FFH”). See Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements
included in Item 1. of this report.
The Bartlesville facility
became part of our company as a result of our acquisition of all of the outstanding stock of Phoenix Rising Aviation, Inc. (“PRA”)
on August 15, 2013.
The FBO segment of
the general aviation industry is highly fragmented. According to the National Air Transportation Association (“NATA”),
there are over 3,000 FBOs that serve customers at one or more of over 3,000 airport facilities across the country that have at
least one paved 3,000-foot runway. The vast majority of these entities are single location operators. NATA characterizes companies
with operations at three or more airports as “chains.” An operation with FBOs in at least two distinctive regions of
the country is considered a “national” chain while an operation with FBOs in multiple locations within a single region
is considered a “regional” chain.
As described in greater
detail below in Liquidity and Capital Resources, upcoming reductions to the number of air tours emanating from the Heliport is
expected to have a negative impact on our operations. The first stage of these reductions was initiated on June 1, 2016.
REVENUE AND OPERATING RESULTS
Comparison of Continuing Operations
for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015.
REVENUE
Revenue from continuing operations decreased
by 10.8 percent to $4,064,488 for the three months ended June 30, 2016 as compared with corresponding prior-year period revenue
of $4,557,736.
For the three months
ended June 30, 2016, revenue from continuing operations associated with the sale of jet fuel, aviation gasoline and related items
decreased by 5.8 percent to approximately $1,663,000 as compared to approximately $1,766,000 in the three months ended June 30,
2015. The decrease was largely attributable to a lower volume of gallons, particularly gallons associated with fueling at our Heliport
operation. This decrease was related to both the initiation of air tour reductions on June 1, 2016 and to the timing of the Easter
holiday, which fell in the first quarter of 2016 but the second quarter of 2015.
For the three months
ended June 30, 2016, revenue from continuing operations associated with services and supply items decreased by 13.6 percent to
approximately $2,385,000 as compared to approximately $2,760,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2015. The decrease was attributable
to same factors identified above.
For the three months
ended June 30, 2016, all other revenue from continuing operations decreased by 48.0 percent to approximately $16,000 as compared
to approximately $31,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2015. The decrease was largely attributable to a decrease in miscellaneous
revenue generated by our Heliport compared to the same period last year.
Revenue from continuing
operations decreased by 0.2 percent to $7,031,568 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 as compared with corresponding prior-year
period revenue of $7,044,851.
For the six months ended June 30, 2016,
revenue from continuing operations associated with the sale of jet fuel, aviation gasoline and related items decreased by 0.1 percent
to approximately $2,778,000 as compared to approximately $2,781,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2015.
For the six months
ended June 30, 2016, revenue from continuing operations associated with services and supply items increased by 1.0 percent to approximately
$4,223,000 as compared to approximately $4,179,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2015.
For the six months
ended June 30, 2016, all other revenue from continuing operations decreased by 64.4 percent to approximately $30,000 as compared
to approximately $84,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2015. The decrease was largely attributable to a decrease in miscellaneous
revenue generated by our Heliport compared to the same period last year.
GROSS PROFIT
Total gross profit
from continuing operations decreased 23.7 percent to $2,092,527 in the three months ended June 30, 2016 as compared with the three
months ended June 30, 2015. Gross margin decreased to 51.5 percent in the three months ended June 30, 2015 as compared to 60.1
percent in the same period in the prior year. The decrease in gross profit and gross margin is related to lower levels of gross
profit in our fuel sales, as well as lower levels of activity at our Heliport operation in the three months ended June 30, 2016
as compared to the prior year.
Total gross profit
from continuing operations decreased 3.8 percent to $3,794,217 in the six months ended June 30, 2016 as compared with the six months
ended June 30, 2015. Gross margin decreased to 54.0 percent in the six months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to 56.0 percent in
the same period in the prior year. The decrease in gross profit is related to lower levels of gross profit in our fuel sales, as
well as lower levels of activity, at our Heliport operation in the six months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to the prior year.
OPERATING EXPENSE
Selling, General and Administrative
Total selling, general
and administrative expenses, or SG&A, from continuing operations were approximately $1,668,000 in the three months ended June
30, 2016, representing a decrease of approximately $271,000 or 14.0 percent, as compared to the same period in 2015. Total selling,
general and administrative expenses, or SG&A, from continuing operations were $ 2,997,000 in the six months ended June 30,
2016, representing a decrease of approximately $62,000 or 2.0 percent, as compared to the same period in 2015.
SG&A associated
with continuing operations of our aviation services operations were approximately $1,543,000 in the three months ended June 30,
2016, representing a decrease of approximately $305,000 or 16.5 percent, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2015. SG&A
associated with our continuing FBO operations, as a percentage of revenue, was 38.0 percent for the three months ended June 30,
2016, as compared with 40.6 percent in the corresponding prior year period. The decreased operating expenses were largely attributable
to reduced costs related to the lower levels of activity in our Heliport operations.
SG&A associated with continuing operations
of our aviation services operations were approximately $2,764,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2016, representing a decrease
of approximately $114,000 or 4.0 percent, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2015. SG&A associated with our continuing
FBO operations, as a percentage of revenue, was 39.3 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2016, as compared with 40.9 percent
in the corresponding prior year period. The decreased operating expenses were largely attributable to reduced costs related to
the lower levels of activity in our Heliport operations.
Corporate SG&A
was approximately $125,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2016, representing an increase of approximately $35,000 as compared
with the corresponding prior year period. Corporate SG&A was approximately $232,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2016,
representing an increase of approximately $52,000 as compared with the corresponding prior year period.
OPERATING INCOME
Operating income from
continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 was $424,351 and $797,429, respectively, as compared to
operating income of $802,236 and $886,745, in the three and six months ended June 30, 2015. The decrease on a year-over-year basis
was driven by lower levels of gross margin and gross profit offset by lower SG&A expenses.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization was approximately $238,000 and
$304,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Interest Income/Expense
Interest income for
the six months ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015 was $0. Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was approximately
$15,000 as compared to approximately $12,000 in the same period in 2015.
Income Tax
Income tax expense
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 was $216,000 and $395,500, respectively, as compared to approximately $456,000
for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2015. The decrease is attributable to lower pre-tax income in the six months
ended June 30, 2016 as compared to the same period in 2015.
Net Income Per Share
Net income was $386,868 and $291,117 for
the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The increase in net income is an outcome of the factors described above.
Basic and diluted net income per share for the six month periods
ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 was $0.01.
LIQUIDITY
AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of June 30, 2016,
we had cash and cash equivalents of $1,337,004 and a working capital surplus of $2,504,309. We generated revenue from continuing
operations of $7,031,568 and had net income from continuing operations before taxes of $782,368 for the six months ended June 30,
2016. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, cash flows included net cash provided by operating activities of $1,045,662, net
cash provided by investing activities of $14,055, and net cash used in financing activities of $137,374.
On May 17, 2013, we
entered into a loan agreement with PNC Bank (the “PNC Loan Agreement”). The PNC Loan Agreement contained three components:
(i) a $2,500,000 non-revolving acquisition line of credit (the “PNC Acquisition Line”); (ii) a $1,150,000 working capital
line (the “PNC Working Capital Line”); and (iii) a $280,920 term loan (the “PNC Term Loan”).
Proceeds of the PNC
Acquisition Line were able to be dispersed, based on parameters defined in the PNC Loan Agreement, until May 17, 2014 (the “Conversion
Date”). As of the Conversion Date, there was $1,350,000 outstanding under the PNC Acquisition Line. The payment terms provided
that 30 days following the Conversion Date, and continuing on the same day of each month thereafter, we are required to make equal
payments of principal over a 60 month period. Interest on the outstanding principal continues to accrue at a rate equal to one-month
LIBOR plus 275 basis points (3.18% as of June 30, 2016). As of June 30, 2016, there was $ 787,500 outstanding under the PNC Acquisition
Line.
The PNC Working Capital
was to have been dispersed for working capital and general corporate purposes. Interest on outstanding principal accrued at a rate
equal to daily LIBOR plus 250 basis points. The PNC Working Capital Line expired on December 31, 2015, with $0 outstanding.
The PNC Term Loan was
utilized to retire our previously outstanding miscellaneous debt of the same amount. Interest on outstanding principal accrued
at a rate equal to one-month LIBOR plus 275 basis points and principal and interest payments were to be made over a thirty-four
month period. At December 31, 2015, all amounts under the PNC Term loan have been repaid.
The Company is party to a concession agreement,
dated as of November 1, 2008, with the City of New York for the operation of the Downtown Manhattan Heliport (the “Concession
Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Concession Agreement, the Company must pay the greater of 18% of the first $5,000,000
in program year gross receipts and 25% of gross receipts in excess of $5 million or minimum annual guaranteed payments. The Company
paid the City of New York $1,200,000 in the first year of the term and minimum payments were scheduled to increase to approximately
$1,700,000 in the final year of Concession Agreement which now, in accordance with an agreement (the “Agreement”) between
the Company and the New York City Economic Development Corporation (“NYCEDC”), expires on April 30, 2021. In addition
to the extended base term, the City of New York has two one year options to further extend the Concession Agreement. The Agreement
also calls for certain reductions in air tour activity at the Heliport as well as reductions to the Company’s minimum annual
guaranteed payments, which are further detailed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 11, 2016. During the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, we incurred
approximately $1,416,000 and $1,024,000, respectively, in concession fees which are recorded in the cost of revenue.
On July 13, 2016, the Franchise and Concession
Review Committee of New York City approved an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Concession Agreement between us and
the City of New York. The Amendment, which memorializes the Agreement, is filed as an exhibit with this report. In addition to
elements described above, the Amendment redefines the plan year as well as the applicable minimum annual guaranteed payments through
the extended base term and option periods.
The air tour reductions
articulated in the Agreement are expected to negatively impact the Company’s business and financial results as well as those
of the Company’s management company at the Heliport, Empire Aviation which, as previously disclosed, is owned by the children
of Alvin Trenk, our CEO and a member of our Board of Directors. The Company incurred management fees with Empire Aviation
of approximately $648,000 and $486,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, which is recorded in administrative
expenses. The Company and Empire have also contributed to the Helicopter Tourism and Jobs Council (“HTJC”), an
association that lobbies on behalf of the helicopter air tour industry, and which had engaged in discussions with the Mayor’s
office in connection with the Agreement. Mr. Trenk is also an active participant with HJTC, which is managed by his grandson.
As disclosed in a Current
Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on July 6, 2015, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement, dated June 30, 2015,
by and between the Company and Warren A. Peck (the “Stock Agreement”). The details of the Stock Agreement are included
in that Current Report as well as in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on April 11,
2016.
On September 30, 2015,
we and Mr. Peck executed a Closing Cash Agreement (“the “Closing Agreement”), which was filed with our Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2015. The Closing Agreement provided for Mr. Peck to sign over to the Company
title to an aircraft to defer the $250,000 cash consideration due at closing. As further described in the Closing Agreement, we
were to receive the $250,000 closing cash payment, plus other identified costs, when the aircraft was subsequently sold. On June
13, 2016, the Company entered into an agreement (the “Sale Agreement”) with an unrelated third party to acquire the
aircraft subject to the Closing Agreement. Under the terms of the Sale Agreement, we received a down-payment of $30,000, which
was credited against the $250,000 cash consideration owed by Mr. Peck. In addition, we will receive monthly payments of at least
$28,000 to satisfy the remainder of the $250,000 cash consideration and $50,000 of the Note owed by Mr. Peck. The $220,000 remaining
balance of closing cash consideration, plus receivables associated with the Note, are reflected as a Note Receivable as of June
30, 2016.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In April 2014, the
FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-08 “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant
and Equipment (Topic 360) – Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity”
(ASU 2014-08) which requires entities to change the criteria for reporting discontinued operations and enhance convergence of the
FASB’s and International Accounting Standard Board’s (IASB) reporting requirements for discontinued operations so as
not to be overly complex or difficult to apply to stakeholders. Only those disposals of components of an entity that represent
a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on the entity’s operations and financial results will be reported
as discontinued operations in the financial statements. ASU 2014-08 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December
15, 2014 and interim periods thereafter. ASU 2014-08 will be effective for the Company’s financial statements for fiscal
years beginning January 1, 2015. Based on the Company’s evaluation of ASU 2014-08, the adoption of this statement on January
1, 2015 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
