SKY HARBOUR GROUP CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2024

(in thousands, except share data)

 

 

1.

Organization and Business Operations

 

Sky Harbour Group Corporation (“SHG”) is a holding company organized under the laws of the State of Delaware and, through its main operating subsidiary, Sky Harbour LLC and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Sky”), is an aviation infrastructure development company that develops, leases and manages general aviation hangars for business aircraft across the United States. Sky Harbour Group Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the “Company.”

 

The Company is organized as an umbrella partnership-C corporation, or “Up-C”, structure in which substantially all of the operating assets of the Company are held by Sky and SHG’s only substantive assets are its equity interests in Sky (the “Sky Common Units”). As of September 30, 2024, SHG owned approximately 37.6% of the Sky Common Units and the prior holders of Sky Common Units (the “LLC Interests”) owned approximately 62.4% of the Sky Common Units and control the Company through their ownership of the Company's Class B Common Stock, $0.0001 par value (“Class B Common Stock”).

Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and the related notes (the “Financial Statements”) have been prepared in conformity with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) requirements for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, and consequently exclude certain disclosures normally included in audited consolidated financial statements prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).These Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, which includes additional disclosures and a summary of the Company's significant accounting policies. In the Company’s opinion, these Financial Statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring items, considered necessary by management to fairly state the Company’s results of operation, financial position, and cash flows.

 

Certain historical amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Such estimates include assumptions used within impairment analyses, estimated useful lives of depreciable assets and amortizable costs, estimates of inputs utilized in determining the fair value of financial instruments such as warrants, estimates and assumptions related to right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities, and estimates and assumptions used in the determination of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the business combination. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The Company’s operations have been limited to-date. For most of its history, the Company has been engaged in securing access to land through ground leases and developing and constructing aviation hangars. The major risks faced by the Company is its future ability to obtain additional tenants for the facilities that it constructs, and to contract with such tenants for rental income in an amount that is sufficient to meet the Company’s financial obligations, including increasing construction costs due to inflation and increased borrowing costs to the extent that the Company incurs additional indebtedness.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As a result of ongoing construction projects and business development activities, including the development of aircraft hangars and the leasing of available hangar space, the Company has incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from operating activities since its inception. The Company expects to continue to invest in such activities and generate operating losses in the near future.

 

The Company obtained long-term financing through bond and equity offerings to fund its construction, lease, and operational commitments, and believes its liquidity is sufficient to allow continued operations for more than one year after the date these financial statements are issued.

Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Consolidation

 

SHG is deemed to have a controlling interest of Sky through its appointment as the Managing Member of Sky, in which SHG has control over the affairs and decision-making of Sky. The interests in Sky not owned by the Company are presented as non-controlling interests. Sky’s ownership percentage in each of its consolidated subsidiaries is 100%, unless otherwise disclosed.

 

Cost of Construction

 

Cost of construction on the consolidated balance sheets is carried at cost. The cost of acquiring an asset includes the costs necessary to bring a capital project to the condition necessary for its intended use. Costs are capitalized once the construction of a specific capital project is probable. Construction labor and other direct costs of construction are capitalized. Professional fees for engineering, procurement, consulting, and other soft costs that are directly identifiable with the project and are considered an incremental direct cost are capitalized. Activities associated with internally manufactured hangar buildings, including materials, direct manufacturing labor, and manufacturing overhead directly identifiable with such activities are allocated to our construction projects and capitalized. The Company allocates a portion of its internal salaries to both capitalized cost of construction and to general and administrative expense based on the percentage of time certain employees worked in the related areas. Interest, net of the amortization of debt issuance costs and premiums, and net of interest income earned on bond proceeds, is also capitalized until the capital project is completed.

 

Once a capital project is complete, the Company begins to depreciate the constructed asset on a straight-line basis over the lesser of the life of the asset or the remaining term of the related ground lease, including expected renewal terms. 

 

Leases

 

The Company accounts for leases under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842, Leases. The Company determines whether a contract contains a lease at the inception of the contract. ASC Topic 842 requires lessees to recognize lease liabilities and right-of-use (“ROU”) assets for all operating leases with terms of more than 12 months on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company has made an accounting policy election to not recognize leases with an initial term of 12 months or less on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and will result in recognizing those lease payments in the consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the lease term. When management determines that it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise its options to renew the leases, the renewal terms are included in the lease term and the resulting ROU asset and lease liability balances.

 

The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components; the Company has elected the accounting policy to not separate lease and non-lease components for all underlying asset classes. The Company has not elected to capitalize any interest cost that is implicit within its operating leases into cost of construction on the consolidated balance sheet, but instead, expenses its ground lease cost as a component of operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.

 

Warrants liability

 

The Company accounts for its Warrants (as defined in Note 10 — Warrants) in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”), under which warrants that do not meet the criteria for equity classification and must be recorded as derivative liabilities. Accordingly, the Company classifies the Warrants as liabilities carried at their fair value and adjusts the warrants to fair value at each reporting period. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until the warrants are exercised or expire, and any change in fair value is recognized in the consolidated statement of operations.

 

8

 

Revenue recognition

 

The Company leases the hangar facilities that it constructs to third parties. The lease agreements are either on a month-to-month basis or have a defined term and may have options to extend the term. Some of the leases contain options to terminate the lease by either party with given notice. There are no options given to the lessee to purchase the underlying assets. Rental revenue is recognized in accordance with ASC Topic 842, Leases (see Note 8 — Leases) and includes fixed payments of cash rents, which represents revenue each tenant pays in accordance with the terms of its respective lease and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Rental revenue and the corresponding rent and other receivables are recorded net of any concessions and uncollectible tenant receivables for all periods presented. The Company evaluates the collectability of tenant receivables for payments required under the lease agreements. If the Company determines that collectability is not probable, the Company recognizes any difference between revenue amounts recognized to date under ASC 842 and payments that have been collected from the lessee, including any additional rent or lease termination fees, as a current period adjustment to rental revenue.

 

Variable lease payments consist of tenant reimbursements for common area maintenance, utilities, and operating expenses of the property, and various other fees, including fees associated with the delivery of aircraft fuel, late fees, and lease termination fees. Variable lease payments are charged based on the terms and conditions included in the respective tenant leases and are recognized in the same period as the expenses are incurred. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, rental revenue includes $817 and $1,870 of variable lease payments, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, rental revenue includes $920 and $1,224 of variable lease payments, respectively.

 

As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the deferred rent receivable included in prepaid expenses and other assets was $501 and $367, respectively. Rent received in advance represents tenant payments received prior to the contractual due date, and is included in accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other liabilities. Rent received in advance consisted of $297 and $241 as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

 

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 the Company did not derive 10% of its revenue from any single tenant. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 the Company derived approximately 46% and 38% of its revenue from two tenants, respectively.

 

Income Taxes

 

SHG is classified as a corporation for Federal income tax purposes and is subject to U.S. Federal and state income taxes. SHG includes in income, for U.S. Federal income tax purposes, its allocable portion of income from the “pass-through” entities in which it holds an interest, including Sky. The “pass-through” entities, are not subject to U.S. Federal and certain state income taxes at the entity level, and instead, the tax liabilities with respect to taxable income are passed through to the members, including SHG. As a result, prior to the Yellowstone Transaction, Sky was not subject to U.S. Federal and certain state income taxes at the entity level.

 

The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. This method gives consideration to the future tax consequences associated with the differences between the financial accounting and tax basis of the assets and liabilities as well as the ultimate realization of any deferred tax asset resulting from such differences, as well as from net operating losses and other tax-basis carryforwards. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized. When a valuation allowance is increased or decreased, a corresponding tax expense or benefit is recorded.

 

The Company recorded income tax expense of $0 and the effective tax rate was 0.0% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. The effective income tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 differs from the federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to a full valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets as it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized due to the cumulative losses sustained by the Company to date.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Rapidbuilt Acquisition

 

On  May 12, 2023 (the “Option Exercise Date”), Sky exercised its option to acquire a 51% equity interest in Overflow Ltd., a Texas limited partnership (“Overflow”), and its wholly-owned operating subsidiary, Rapidbuilt, Inc., a Texas corporation (“Rapidbuilt”), for nominal consideration (the “Rapidbuilt Acquisition”). As a result of the Rapidbuilt Acquisition, Weatherford Steel Buildings Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of Sky (“WSBH”), owns a 50% limited partnership interest in Overflow, and Weatherford Steel Buildings GP LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of Sky (“WSB GP”), owns a 1% general partnership interest in Overflow. 

 

Rapidbuilt is a manufacturer of pre-engineered steel buildings that previously entered into a supplier arrangement with Sky. Rapidbuilt and Sky’s strategic partnership has resulted in a standard set of proprietary prototype hangar designs, which are intended to deliver high-quality business aviation facilities, lower construction costs, minimize development risk, expedite permit issuance, and facilitate the implementation of refinements across Sky’s portfolio. The Company had pre-existing relationships with Rapidbuilt through a vendor agreement entered into in  July 2022 to acquire construction materials related to the Company's development projects (the “Rapidbuilt Vendor Agreement”) and a revolving line of credit loan and security agreement (the “Rapidbuilt Loan Agreement”) to fund the working capital requirement of Rapidbuilt. These pre-existing relationships were effectively settled in the acquisition and the net receivable balance of $44 is included within the consideration transferred. No gain or loss was recognized in the effective settlement of the Rapidbuilt Vendor Agreement and the Rapidbuilt Loan Agreement.

 

The total cash purchase consideration was nominal. The Company accounted for the acquisition using the acquisition method of accounting, whereby the total purchase price was allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on respective estimated fair values.

 

The following tables summarize the allocation of the purchase price to the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed for the Rapidbuilt Acquisition:

 

  

May 12, 2023

 

Cash

 $293 
Restricted Cash  1,500 

Long-lived assets

  10,752 
Total assets  12,545 
     
Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities  1,427 

Loans payable and finance lease liabilities

  11,074 
Total liabilities  12,501 
Total fair value of net assets acquired  44 
     
Effective settlement of net receivable from Rapidbuilt  44 

Total consideration transferred

 $44 

 

Following the Rapidbuilt Acquisition, substantially all of Overflow and Rapidbuilt's activities relate to the manufacturing of pre-engineering hangar structures for Sky's hangar development projects. As such, the pro-forma effect of this acquisition on revenues and earnings was not material.

 

 

 

4.

Investments and Restricted Investments

 

Investments of the Company's cash in various U.S. Treasury securities have been classified as available-for-sale and are carried at estimated fair value utilizing Level 1 inputs as determined based upon quoted market prices.

 

Pursuant to provisions within the Master Indenture of the Series 2021 Bonds, as defined in Note 9 — Bonds payable, loans payable, and interest, the Company invests the funds held in the restricted trust bank accounts in various U.S. Treasury securities. Therefore, such investments are reported as “Restricted investments” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Unrealized losses on certain of the Company's investments and restricted investments are primarily attributable to changes in interest rates. The Company does not believe the unrealized losses represent impairments because the unrealized losses are due to general market factors. The Company has not recognized an allowance for expected credit losses related to its investments or restricted investments as the Company has not identified any unrealized losses attributable to credit factors during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. The held-to-maturity restricted investments are carried on the consolidated balance sheet at amortized cost. As of September 30, 2024, the Company has the ability and intent to hold these restricted investments until maturity, and as a result, the Company would not expect the value of these investments to decline significantly due to a sudden change in market interest rates. The fair value of the Company’s restricted investments is estimated utilizing Level 1 inputs including prices for U.S. Treasury securities with comparable maturities on active markets.

 

The following tables set forth summaries of the amortized cost, unrealized gains, unrealized losses, and fair value by investment type as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

The Company’s ground leases at airports are classified as operating leases under ASC Topic 842. Management has determined that it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise its options to renew the leases, and therefore the renewal options are included in the lease term and the resulting ROU asset and operating lease liability balances. As the Company’s lease agreements do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate, nor is the rate available to the Company from its lessors, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of the lease payments. In addition to the Company’s ground leases, the Company has operating leases for office space and ground support vehicles, and finance leases for vehicles supporting operations at Rapidbuilt.

 

The Company’s lease population does not include any residual value guarantees. The Company has operating leases that contain variable payments, most commonly in the form of common area maintenance and operating expense charges, which are based on actual costs incurred. These variable payments were excluded from the calculation of the ROU asset and operating lease liability balances since they are not fixed or in-substance fixed payments. These variable payments were not material in amount for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. Some of the leases contain covenants that require the Company to construct the hangar facilities on the leased grounds within a certain period and spend a set minimum dollar amount. For one of the leases, the shortfall (if any) must be paid to the lessor. See Note 15 — Commitments and Contingencies.

 

The Company’s ground leases have remaining terms ranging between 16 to 73 years, including options for the Company to extend the terms. These leases expire between 2040 and 2097, which include all lease extension options available to the Company. Certain of the Company's ground leases contain options to lease additional parcels of land at the Company's option within a specified period of time.

 

In March 2024, the Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a ground lease agreement (the “SJC Lease”) at SJC with the City of San Jose. The SJC Lease covers approximately 7 acres of property that contains an approximately 38,000 square foot hangar, approximately 19,000 square feet of office space, and approximately 108,000 square feet of apron and ramp space. The property at SJC includes additional land on which the Company intends to develop approximately 28,000 square feet of additional hangar space. The initial term of the SJC Lease will be 20 years from  May 1, 2024, and contains a mutual option to extend the SJC Lease an additional 5 years following the expiration of the initial term.

 

In March 2024, the Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a ground lease agreement (the “ORL Lease”) at ORL with the Greater Orlando Aviation Authority (“GOAA”). The ORL Lease covers a parcel containing approximately 20 acres of land at ORL. The initial term of the ORL Lease will be 30 years from expiration of construction period, with lease payments commencing contemporaneously with the term. The ORL Lease contains options exercisable by the Company to extend the ORL Lease an additional 20 years based on the Company's total expenditures in subsequent phases at ORL.

 

In May 2024, the Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a ground lease agreement (the “IAD Lease”) at IAD with the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority (“MWAA”). The IAD Lease covers approximately 18 acres of property at IAD. The initial term of the IAD Lease will be approximately 50 years and expire on March 31, 2074, and contains an option exercisable by the Company to extend the IAD Lease an additional 10 years following the expiration of the initial term. The property covered by the IAD Lease is split between two parcels, with rent payments associated with the first parcel (“IAD Phase I”) commencing the earlier of certificate of occupancy or 36 months from the issuance of permits for IAD Phase I, and rent payments associated with the second parcel (“IAD Phase II”) commencing the earlier of issuance of permits for IAD Phase II or five years from certificate of occupancy associated with IAD Phase I. The IAD Lease requires the Company to commence construction related to IAD Phase II within five years of the receipt of the certificate of occupancy for IAD Phase I.

 

In August 2024, the Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a ground lease agreement (the “SLC Lease”) at Salt Lake City International Airport (“SLC”) with the Salt Lake City Corporation. The SLC Lease covers approximately 8.4 acres of property at SLC. The initial term of the SLC Lease will be 30 years from the earlier of certificate of occupancy or 24 months from the expiration of the diligence period, as defined in the SLC Lease, with lease payments commencing contemporaneously with the term. The SLC Lease contains two options exercisable by the Company to extend the SLC Lease for an additional 20 years following the expiration of the initial term.

Lessor

 

The Company leases the hangar facilities that it constructs or rents from municipal landlords to third-party tenants. These leases have been classified as operating leases. The Company does not have any leases classified as sales-type or direct financing leases. Lease agreements with tenants are either on a month-to-month basis or have a defined term with an option to extend the term. The defined term leases vary in length from one to ten years with options to renew for additional term(s) given to the lessee. There are no options given to the lessee to purchase the underlying assets.

 

The leases may contain variable fees, most commonly in the form of tenant reimbursements, which are recoveries of the common area maintenance and operating expenses of the property and are recognized as income in the same period as the expenses are incurred. The leases did not have any initial direct costs. The leases do not contain any restrictions or covenants to incur additional financial obligations by the lessee.

Bonds payable, loans payable, and interest

 

Bonds payable

 

On May 20, 2021, Sky formed a new wholly-owned subsidiary, Sky Harbour Capital LLC (“SHC”), as a parent corporation to its wholly-owned subsidiaries that operate each of the aircraft hangar development sites under its ground leases. SHC and these subsidiaries form an Obligated Group (the “Obligated Group” or the “Borrowers”) under a series of bonds that were issued in September 2021 with a principal amount of $166.3 million (the “Series 2021 Bonds”). The members of the Obligated Group are jointly and severally liable under the Series 2021 Bonds. SHG and its other subsidiaries are not members of the Obligated Group and have no obligation to repay the bonds.

 

The Series 2021 Bonds are payable pursuant to a loan agreement dated September 1, 2021 between the Public Finance Authority (of Wisconsin) and the Borrowers. The payments by the Borrowers under the loan agreement are secured by a Senior Master Indenture Promissory Note, Series 2021-1 issued by the Obligated Group under an indenture (the “Master Indenture”). The obligations of the Borrowers are collateralized by certain leasehold and subleasehold deeds of trust or mortgages on the Borrowers’ interests in the development sites and facilities being constructed at each airport where the Borrowers hold ground leases. In addition, the Borrowers have assigned, pledged and granted a first priority security interest in all funds held under the Master Indenture and all right, title and interest in the gross revenues of the Borrowers. Furthermore, Sky, Sky Harbour Holdings LLC and SHC have each pledged as collateral its respective ownership interest in any of the Borrowers.

 

The Series 2021 Bonds have principal amounts, interest rates, and maturity dates as follow: $21.1 million bearing interest at 4.00%, due July 1, 2036; $30.4 million bearing interest at 4.00%, due July 1, 2041; and $114.8 million bearing interest at 4.25%, due July 1, 2054. The Series 2021 Bond that has a maturity date of July 1, 2036 was issued at a premium, and the Company received bond proceeds that were $0.2 million above its face value. The bond premium is being amortized as a reduction of interest expense over the life of the bond. Interest is payable on each January 1 and July 1, commencing January 1, 2022. Principal repayments due under the Series 2021 Bonds are paid annually, commencing July 1, 2032.

 

On  March 22, 2023, SHC elected to modify the scope of the Series 2021 Bonds pursuant to the terms of the Master Indenture, in order to reallocate a portion of the proceeds of the Series 2021 Bonds to its project site located at ADS (the “ADS Project”) . In connection with the election to modify the scope of the Series 2021 PABs to include the ADS Project, (i) Addison Hangars LLC (“Sky Harbour Addison”) and OPF Hangars Landlord LLC (“OPF Hangars”) joined as members of the Obligated Group, (ii) Sky Harbour Holdings LLC contributed its membership interest in OPF Hangars to SHC, (iii) SHC pledged its equity interest in each of Sky Harbour Addison and OPF Hangars to the Master Trustee as security for the obligations under the Series 2021 Bonds, (iv) Sky Harbour Addison granted to the Master Trustee a mortgage on its leasehold interest in the real property comprising the ADS Project, (v) OPF Hangars granted the Master Trustee a mortgage on its leasehold interest in the real estate comprising the project located in Opa Locka, Florida, and (vi) Sky Harbour Services LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, has agreed to waive all management fees and development fees during the construction period of the projects associated with the Series 2021 Bonds.

 

As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair value of the Company’s Series 2021-1 Bonds was approximately $141.5 million and $116.5 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair value of the Company’s bonds is estimated utilizing Level 2 inputs including prices for the bonds on inactive markets.

Warrants

 

SHG's legal predecessor, Yellowstone Acquisition Company (“YAC”), issued to third-party investors 6,799,439 warrants which entitled the holder to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share (the “Public Warrants”). In addition, 7,719,779 private placement warrants were sold to BOC Yellowstone LLC (the “Sponsor”). Each Private Warrant allows the Sponsor to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share. The Public Warrants and Private Warrants remain outstanding under the same terms and conditions to purchase shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock. The terms of the Private Warrants are identical to those of the Public Warrants, except for that so long as the Private Warrants are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees, they  may be exercised on a cashless basis.

 

In connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Private Placement Purchase Agreement”) entered into on November 1, 2023 with certain investors, the Company issued to third-party investors 1,541,600 warrants (the “PIPE Warrants”, and together with the Public Warrants and the Private Warrants, the “Warrants”). The PIPE Warrants are equivalent in form and substance to the Company’s Public Warrants. 

 

The Warrants contain an exercise price of $11.50 per share and expire on  January 25, 2027. The Company determined the fair value of its Public Warrants and PIPE Warrants based on the publicly listed trading price as of the valuation date. Accordingly, these warrants are classified as Level 1 financial instruments. As the terms of the Private Warrants are identical to those of the Public Warrants, the Company determined the fair value of its Private Warrants based on the publicly listed trading price of the Public Warrants as of the valuation date and have classified the Private Warrants as Level 2 financial instruments.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, 257,342 Warrants were exercised, resulting in approximately $3.0 million of proceeds. There were no warrants exercised during the three months ended September 30, 2024. As of  September 30, 2024, 15,803,001 Warrants remain outstanding. 

 

The closing price of the Warrants was $2.25 and $0.75 per warrant on  September 30, 2024 and  December 31, 2023, respectively. The aggregate fair value of the outstanding Warrants was approximately $35.6 million and $12.0 million as of  September 30, 2024 and  December 31, 2023, respectively. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recorded an unrealized loss associated with the change in fair value of the Warrants of approximately $16.0 million. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded an unrealized gain of approximately $1.6 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded unrealized losses associated with the change in fair value of the Warrants of approximately $23.9 million and $0, respectively.

Equity

 

Common Equity

 

As of September 30, 2024, there were 25,326,328 and 42,046,356 shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock outstanding, respectively. Holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to the stockholders for their vote or approval, except as required by applicable law. Holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters submitted to the stockholders for their vote or approval.

 

The holders of Class A Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends, as and if declared by the Company’s Board of Directors out of legally available funds. With respect to stock dividends, holders of Class A Common Stock must receive Class A Common Stock. The holders of Class B Common Stock do not have any right to receive dividends other than stock dividends consisting of shares of Class B Common Stock, as applicable, in each case paid proportionally with respect to each outstanding share of Class B Common Stock.

 

At-the-Market Facility

 

On March 27, 2024, the Company entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “ATM Agreement”) with B. Riley Securities, Inc. (“B. Riley”) with respect to an “at the market” offering program (the “ATM Facility”), under which the Company  may, from time to time, at its sole discretion, issue and sell through B. Riley, acting as sales agent, up to $100 million of shares of Class A Common Stock. Pursuant to the ATM Agreement, the Company may sell the shares through B. Riley by any method permitted that is deemed an “at the market” offering as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. B. Riley will use commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices to sell the shares from time to time, based upon instructions from the Company, including any price or size limits or other customary parameters or conditions the Company may impose. The Company will pay B. Riley a commission of 3.0% of the gross sales price per share sold under the ATM Agreement, subject to certain reductions. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company sold no shares of Class A Common Stock under the ATM Facility. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company sold 7,407 shares of Class A Common Stock under the ATM Facility at a weighted-average sales price of $12.42.

 

The Company is not obligated to sell any shares under the ATM Agreement. The offering of shares pursuant to the ATM Agreement will terminate upon the earlier to occur of (i) the issuance and sale, through B. Riley, of all of the shares subject to the ATM Agreement and (ii) termination of the ATM Agreement in accordance with its terms.

 

In connection with entering into the ATM Agreement, on March 27, 2024, the Company and B. Riley terminated (the “B. Riley Termination”) the Common Stock Purchase Agreement (the “B. Riley Stock Purchase Agreement”) dated August 18, 2022. As a result of the B. Riley Termination, the Company recognized approximately $0.1 million of expense associated with the write-off of deferred equity issuance costs.

As of September 30 2024, there are approximately 958,707 unvested RSUs outstanding with a weighted average grant date fair value of $9.76. The unrecognized compensation costs associated with all unvested RSUs at September 30, 2024 was approximately $7.6 million that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average future period of 2.7 years.

 

Non-qualified Stock Options (“NSOs”)

 

In February 2024, the Company granted to certain employees options to purchase 438,781 shares of Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.63 under the Company's 2022 Incentive Award Plan. The NSOs vest ratably over a four-year period beginning on the sixth anniversary of the grant date and have a term of 10 years. The options were valued at $7.32 using a Black -Scholes pricing model. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recognized stock compensation expense of approximately $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, associated with all NSO awards. The unrecognized compensation costs associated with all unvested NSOs at September 30, 2024 was approximately $3.0 million that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average future period of 8.4 years.

Earnings (loss) per Share

 

Basic earnings (loss) per share of Class A Common Stock is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to SHG by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share of Class A Common Stock is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to SHG, adjusted for the assumed exchange of all potentially dilutive securities, by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding adjusted to give effect to potentially dilutive shares using the treasury stock or if-converted method as appropriate. Shares of the Company’s Class B Common Stock do not participate in the earnings or losses of the Company and are therefore not participating securities. As such, separate presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share of Class B Common Stock under the two-class method has not been presented.

Commitments and Contingencies

 

In addition to the lease payment commitments discussed in Note 8 —  Leases, the ground leases to which the Company is a party contain covenants that require the Company to conduct construction of hangar facilities on the leased grounds within a certain period and in some cases, to spend a minimum dollar amount.

 

The APA Lease requires the Company to improve the property in accordance with a development plan included in the lease and to complete such improvements within 24-months of the issuance of permitting documents. Construction began on the APA Phase I project in October 2022.

 

The DVT Lease requires approximately $15.3 million and $14.6 million of improvements to be made for Phase I and for Phase II, if such option is exercised, respectively, within 12-months after receiving permitting documents for each Phase, but in no event later than May 2026. Construction began on the DVT Phase I project in December 2022.

 

The Company has committed to spend $10.0 million in capital improvements on the ADS construction project. If this amount is not expended, the Company is subject to a reduction of the term of the lease.

 

The PWK Lease contains a requirement that the Company must commence construction within six months of the issuance of permits and must complete construction within 18 months of construction commencement. If the Company is unable to adhere to the prescribed timeline and unable to receive an extension from PWK, the PWK Lease is subject to termination.

 

The SJC Lease contains customary milestones by which the Company must complete additional construction.

 

The ORL Lease requires that the Company construct $30 million of improvements in its initial phase of construction within 24 months of the effective date of the lease. The ORL Lease contains other customary milestones by which the Company must commence and complete subsequent phases of construction.

 

The SLC Lease requires that the Company make minimum capital improvements of $40 million.

 

The Company has contracts for construction of the APA Phase I, DVT Phase I, and ADS Phase I projects. The Company  may terminate any of the contracts or suspend construction without cause. There are no termination penalties under the construction contracts.

 

In addition to the matters described in this note, the Company is involved is various legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of its business. Although the Company cannot predict with certainty the ultimate resolution of these matters, which involve judgements that are inherently subjective, the Company does not expect that the ultimate disposition of such other contingencies or matters will materially affect its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Subsequent Events

 

Private Placement and Securities Purchase Agreement

 

On October 25, 2024, the Additional Investors each executed a joinder to the 2024 Private Placement Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which the Additional Investors agreed to purchase, and the Company agreed to sell, an aggregate of 603,684 Additional PIPE Shares (together with the Initial PIPE Shares, the “First Closing PIPE Shares”) for an aggregate purchase price of $5.7 million. The Initial Closing of the PIPE Financing occurred on October 25, 2024, and 3,955,790 First Closing PIPE Shares were issued to the Investors for an aggregate purchase price of $37.6 million, on October 25, 2024 (the “Initial Closing Date”).

 

The Investors have the option to purchase up to an aggregate of 3,955,790 Second Closing PIPE Shares for an aggregate purchase price of up to $37.6 million at the Second Closing. Each Investor has the option to purchase in the Second Closing up to a number of Second Closing PIPE Shares equal to the number of such Initial Investor’s Initial PIPE Shares purchased in the Initial Closing, at the same purchase price of $9.50 per share. The amount of Second Closing PIPE Shares, if any, to be issued at the Second Closing will be determined by each Investor in its sole discretion pursuant to each of their allocations, and the Second Closing will occur, if at all, at the sole discretion of the Investors, on or before December 20, 2024 (the “Second Closing Date”), subject to customary closing conditions. To the extent any Investor does not elect to purchase its full allocation of Second Closing PIPE Shares, such Second Closing PIPE Shares (the “Shortfall Shares” and, together with the First Closing PIPE Shares and the Second Closing PIPE Shares, the “PIPE Shares”) may be purchased by other Investors who have elected to purchase their full allocation of Second Closing PIPE Shares (the “Full Option Investors”). Any Shortfall Shares will be divided among the Full Option Investors on a pro rata basis based on the Initial PIPE Shares to be purchased by such Full Option Investors in the Initial Closing. To the extent any Full Option Investor does not elect to purchase its full allocation of Shortfall Shares, such Shortfall Shares may be purchased by Altai Capital Management, L.P. or its affiliates, as it may designate in its sole discretion.

 

On the Initial Closing Date, the Investors entered into a customary lock-up agreement that restricts sales of shares of Class A Common Stock by the Investors for a period of six months beginning on the Initial Closing Date, subject to certain exceptions. 

 

Pursuant to the terms of the 2024 Private Placement Purchase Agreement, on the Initial Closing Date, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “2024 PIPE Registration Rights Agreement”) with the Investors. Pursuant to the 2024 PIPE Registration Rights Agreement, the Investors are entitled to certain customary registration rights, and the Company is required to prepare and file a resale registration statement with the SEC to register the resale of the PIPE Shares and to use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective by the SEC by the earlier of (i) the later of (x) the 180th calendar day following the Initial Closing Date, or on the next succeeding business day if such date falls on a day that is not a business day and (y) the 15th calendar day following the Second Closing Date, if any, or on the next succeeding business day if such date falls on a day that is not a business day, and (ii) the 5th business day after the date the Company is notified (orally or in writing whichever is earlier) by the SEC that such registration statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review; provided, however, that the Company shall have 10 additional business days if required to update for a quarterly filing.

 

POU Ground Lease Extension

 

On November 7, 2024, the Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, executed an amendment to its ground lease agreement at Hudson Valley Regional Airport (“POU”) with the County of Duchess, New York (the “Amended POU Lease”). The Amended POU Lease extended the term of such ground lease from 15 year to 40 years from the completion of construction, with lease payments commencing upon the earlier of completion of construction or December 2025. The Amended POU Lease contains an option exercisable by the Company to extend the Amended POU Lease an additional 10 years following the expiration of the initial term.

 

 

 

 

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Form 10-Q”), as well as the information contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 27, 2024 (the “Form 10-K”), which is accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

 

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, including the words “believes,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “may,” “might,” “will,” “potential,” “projects,” “predicts,” “continue,” or “should,” or, in each case, their negative or other variations or comparable terminology. There can be no assurance that actual results will not materially differ from expectations. These statements are based on management’s current expectations, but actual results may differ materially due to various factors, including, but not limited to:

 

 

expectations regarding the Company’s strategies and future financial performance, including the Company’s future business plans or objectives, prospective performance and commercial opportunities and competitors, services, pricing, marketing plans, operating expenses, market trends, revenues, liquidity, cash flows and uses of cash, capital expenditures, and the Company’s ability to invest in growth initiatives;

   

 

 

the effects of general economic conditions, including inflation, rising interest rates, and availability of construction materials and labor for our development projects;

   

 

 

our limited operating history makes it difficult to predict future revenues and operating results;

   

 

 

our ability to implement our construction costs mitigation strategies;

   

 

 

changes in applicable laws or regulations;

   

 

 

the possibility that the Company may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; and

   

 

 

our financial performance.

 

The forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on us. Future developments affecting us may not be those that we have anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) and other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those factors described under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Form 10-K. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws. These risks and others described in the Form 10-K may not be exhaustive.

 

By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. We caution you that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and that our actual results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and developments in the industry in which we operate may differ materially from those made in or suggested by the forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus. In addition, even if our results or operations, financial condition and liquidity, and developments in the industry in which we operate are consistent with the forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus, those results or developments may not be indicative of results or developments in subsequent periods.

 

Overview and Background

 

We are an aviation infrastructure development company building the first nationwide network of home basing hangar campuses for business aircraft. We develop, lease, and manage general aviation hangars across the United States, targeting airfields in markets with significant aircraft populations and high hangar demand. Our home basing hangar campuses feature exclusive private hangars and a full suite of dedicated services specifically optimized for home-based, versus transient, aircraft.

 

The physical footprint of the U.S. business aviation fleet grew by almost 28 million square feet in the ten years preceding the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, with hangar supply lagging dramatically, especially in key growth markets. As the fleet of private jets in the United States continues to grow, with recent new aircraft deliveries exceeding retirements, demand for hangar space is at a premium in part because new jets require more square footage of hangar space and the pace of new hangar construction has lagged behind the demand. The cumulative square footage of the business aircraft fleet in the United States increased 50% between 2010 and 2021. Moreover, over that same period, there was an 81% increase in the square footage of larger private jets – those with greater than a 24-foot tail height. A recent study conducted by a business aircraft manufacturer forecasted that business aircraft will only continue to grow in the next ten years, with up to 8,500 new business jet deliveries worth over $275 billion expected to be delivered between 2024 and 2033, further supported by data from the major business aviation manufacturers that suggest the current order backlog for new business aviation aircraft is over $49 billion.

 

These larger footprint aircraft do not fit in much of the existing hangar infrastructure and impose stacking challenges and constraints in the traditional shared or community hangars operated by FBOs. The addition of winglets (the vertical extensions on aircraft wingtips) on most modern business jets inhibits wing-over-wing storage. Aircraft hangars are in high demand and short supply, with some airports compiling waiting lists that can exceed several years.

 

 

We believe our scalable, real estate-centric business model is uniquely optimized to capture this market opportunity and address the increased imbalance between the supply and demand for private jet storage. We intend to capitalize on the existing hangar supply constraints at major U.S. airports by targeting high-end tenants in markets where there is a shortage of private and FBO hangar space, or where such hangars are or are becoming obsolete.

 

We expect to realize economies of scale in construction through a prototype hangar design replicated at our hangar campuses across the United States. This allows for centralized procurement, straightforward permitting processes, efficient development processes, and the best hangar in business aviation. Unlike a service company, our revenues are mostly derived from long-term rental agreements, offering stability and forward visibility of revenues and cash flows. This allows the Company to fund its development through the public bond market, providing capital efficiency and mitigating refinance risk.

 

We seek to develop our home basing hangar campuses on long-term ground leases (or sub-leases thereof) at airports with suitable infrastructure serving metropolitan centers across the United States. We lease each of our properties under long-term ground leases.

(1)

Our projections associated with the commencement and completion of construction, estimated total construction cost, hangars, and rentable square footage of our properties in development are inherently subjective and require judgement to estimate. We believe that our estimates of construction costs and timelines are subject to variability based on various factors including, but not limited to, changes in anticipated site plans, hangar mix, hangar specifications, executed guaranteed maximum price construction contracts, and general market conditions.

  (2) We have not yet formed preliminary estimates regarding the projected construction timeline, total construction costs, or hangar mix associated with our POU Phase II development project.

 

 

Recent Developments

 

In August 2024, we entered into the SLC Lease at SLC with the Salt Lake City Corporation. The SLC Lease covers approximately 8.4 acres of property at SLC. The initial term of the SLC Lease will be 30 years from the earlier of certificate of occupancy or 24 months from the expiration of the diligence period, as defined in the SLC Lease, with lease payments commencing contemporaneously with the term. The SLC Lease contains two options exercisable by us to extend the SLC Lease for an additional 20 years following the expiration of the initial term. Under the terms of the SLC Lease, we are required to make minimum capital improvements of $40 million.

 

In September 2024, we entered into the 2024 Private Placement Purchase Agreement with the Initial Investors, pursuant to which, among other things, we agreed to sell and issue to the Initial Investors at an initial closing an aggregate of 3,352,106 Initial PIPE Shares for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $31.8 million. In October 2024, the Additional Investors each executed a joinder to the 2024 Private Placement Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which the Additional Investors agreed to purchase, and the Company agreed to sell, an aggregate of 603,684 additional shares of Class A Common Stock at the Initial Closing for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $5.7 million.  The Initial Closing of the 2024 Private Placement Purchase Agreement occurred in October 2024, and we sold 3,955,790 First Closing PIPE Shares to the Investors at an aggregate purchase price of approximately $37.6 million.

 

Factors That May Influence Future Results of Operations

 

Revenues

 

Our revenues are derived from rents we earn pursuant to the lease agreements we enter into with our tenants. Our ability to expand through new ground leases and tenant leases at airports is integral to our long-term business strategy and requires that we identify and consummate suitable new ground leases or investment opportunities in real estate properties for our portfolio that meet our investment criteria and are compatible with our growth strategy. Our ability to enter into new ground leases and tenant leases on favorable terms, or at all, may be adversely affected by a number of factors. We believe that the business environment of the industry segments in which our tenants operate is generally positive for tenants. However, our existing and potential tenants are subject to economic, regulatory and market conditions that may affect their level of operations and demand for hangar space, which could impact our results of operations. For example, during the year ended December 31, 2023, a tenant renting two hangars at OPF made the determination that it was necessary to change its business plans in the greater Miami market, which ultimately resulted in the negotiated settlement of the tenant’s lease with us and their exit from our OPF hangar campus. Accordingly, we actively monitor certain key factors, including changes in those factors (fuel prices, new aircraft deliveries, hangar rental rates) that we believe may provide early indications of conditions that may affect the level of demand for new leases and our lease portfolio. See “—Risks Related to our Business and Operations” within the Form 10-K for more information about the risks related to our tenants and our lease payments.

 

Ground Lease Expense

 

One of our largest expenses is the lease payments under our ground leases. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, our operating lease expense for ground leases was $6.0 million and $2.8 million, respectively. We elect to expense rather than capitalize ground lease expense incurred at hangar campus sites under development and will incur expense under U.S. GAAP regardless of whether our ground leases defer cash rent payments until completion of construction. As we enter into new ground leases at new airport sites, our ground lease expense and associated cash payments to airport landlords will ultimately continue to increase into the future. If airport landlords increase the per acre cost of the ground lease of our target campuses, the operating margins at potential target developments may be impacted negatively.

 

Interest Expense

 

Economic conditions and actions by policymaking bodies contributed to rising interest rates, which, along with increases in our borrowing levels, could increase our future borrowing costs. While benchmark interest rates have been reduced and additional reductions are expected in the coming quarters, we do not yet know the level of such reductions and the ultimate impact on our borrowing costs. We expect to issue additional debt to finance future site developments and elevated interest rates would impact our overall economic performance. In addition, we are subject to credit spreads demanded by fixed income investors. As a non-rated issuer, increases in general of credit spreads in the market, or for us, may result in a higher cost of borrowing in the future. We intend to access the bond market on an opportunistic basis. In addition, we may hedge against rising benchmark interest rates by entering into hedging strategies with high quality counterparties.

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

The general and administrative expenses reflected in our statement of operations are reflective of the professional, legal and consulting fees, payroll costs, and other general and administrative expenses, including those necessary to support our business as a public company such as expenses associated with corporate governance, SEC reporting, and other compliance matters. While we expect that our general and administrative expenses will rise in some measure as our portfolio of campuses grows, we expect that such expenses as a percentage of our portfolio will decrease over time due to efficiencies, economies of scale, insourcing of job functions, and cost control measures.

 

 

Construction Material Costs and Labor

 

When constructing our home basing hangar campuses, we use various materials, assemblies, and labor components. We contract for our materials and labor with various general contractors under guaranteed maximum price (GMP) contracts upon receipt of building permits. This allows us to mitigate certain inflationary pressures associated with increases in certain building materials and labor costs between the time construction begins at a hangar campus and the time it is completed. Typically, the materials and most of the components used to construct our hangar campuses are readily available in the United States. We continue to monitor the supply markets and ensure robust competition to achieve the best prices available. Typically, the price changes that most significantly influence our operations are price increases in steel, concrete, and labor. We believe that recent inflationary pressures and market conditions will lead to continued increases in construction costs and market rental rates for hangars within our development projects. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to increase the lease rates for the hangars within our hangar campuses to absorb these increased costs and/or delays, if at all.

 

In May 2023, we acquired a controlling interest in Rapidbuilt, a metal building and hangar door manufacturer, that we expect will ultimately result in an increase in quality and a reduction in the overall cost of the metal building and hangar door components at future development projects. We expect that over time this vertical integration will enable us to deliver metal buildings to most of our development sites in shorter times as compared to the anticipated lead times associated with conventional metal building fabricators. We believe internal building fabrication will provide us opportunities to aggressively target continued schedule compression at most of our development projects in the future. In December 2023, we engaged several structural engineering firms to perform an independent peer review of the hangar buildings designed for our DVT Phase I and APA Phase I development projects. The independent peer reviews determined a significant design defect existed within our prototype hangar building designs that requires retrofitting to both meet and exceed our standards and the respective local building codes. The anticipated retrofitting efforts are also expected to be applied to ADS Phase I, and we project that the aggregate additional cost of such retrofits could total between $26 to $28 million and require an additional three to five months of construction duration for each project impacted. Given the planned design enhancements at our APA Phase I, DVT Phase I, and ADS Phase I development projects, we anticipate that our total construction costs for these projects to each be greater than our original estimates, and outside of the scope of the guaranteed maximum price construction contracts. In March 2024, we funded the increase in estimated costs by contributing $27 million of our corporate cash holdings to SHC, thereby restricting the use of such cash to the project scope of the Series 2021 Bonds.

 

Our projections associated with the commencement and completion of construction, estimated total construction cost, hangars, and rentable square footage of our properties in development are inherently subjective and require judgement to estimate. We believe that our estimates of construction costs and timelines are subject to variability based on various factors including, but not limited to, changes in anticipated site plans, hangar mix, hangar specifications, executed guaranteed maximum price construction contracts, and general market conditions. In May 2024, we updated many of our preliminary estimates based on our intention to begin incorporating a larger hangar prototype into our home basing hangar campuses, which is intended to provide an increase in rentable square footage of hangar, office, and lounge space upon completion. This larger hangar prototype requires an increase in construction materials and components, and we expect its incorporation into multiple future development projects will ultimately result in cost savings through the realization of economies of scale. Our updated estimates of total construction costs do not include projections of potential cost reductions due to such efficiencies. We intend to continue to aggressively mitigate inflationary pressures, reduce construction costs to the greatest extent possible, and pursue compressed development schedules. We currently structure our guaranteed maximum price construction contracts with shared savings clauses to incentivize the general contractors to reduce construction costs.  No assurance can be given that our cost mitigation strategies will be successful, the costs of our ongoing and future projects will not exceed budgets or the guaranteed maximum price for such projects, or that the completion will not be delayed beyond the projected completion dates.

 

Current Capital Requirements and Future Expenditures for Expansion

 

We previously funded SHC with over $200 million to fund the two phases at our initial five ground leased airport locations. We maintain the ability to include up to $50 million in new projects outside the original five locations to be funded with a portion of the existing proceeds held by the trustee as long as certain approvals and supplemental consultant reports are provided showing that such new project would result in better coverage of debt service than previously contemplated projects. We exercised this ability utilizing approximately $26 million of the $50 million available and received the requisite approvals and reports in March 2023 with respect to our ADS Phase I development project.

 

We previously raised equity capital, along with potential future debt and further equity issuances, including the 2024 Private Placement Purchase Agreement and 2023 Private Placement Purchase Agreement entered into on September 16, 2024 and November 1, 2023, respectively, see Liquidity and Capital Resources — Private Placement and Securities Purchase Agreement below, to begin to fund additional airport campuses and reach up to 20 airport campuses over the next several years. We also have the ability to access the capital markets through our ATM Facility and through our effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3. On average, each future campus is anticipated to be composed of 200,000 rentable square feet and is expected to cost approximately $55 million per campus, with 65% or more to be funded with additional private activity bonds or other indebtedness. All future hangar campus projects are discretionary and require us to identify the appropriate airports with the target hangar demand economics, secure required ground leases and permits, and complete future construction at such sites.

 

The cumulative 20 airport site business plan is estimated to cost approximately $1.2 billion, with approximately 65% to 75% anticipated from private activity bonds and the balance with equity or equity-linked financing. Our ability to raise additional equity and/or debt financing will be subject to a number of risks, including our ability to obtain financing upon reasonable terms, if at all, costs of construction, delays in constructing new facilities, operating results, and other risk factors. In the event that we are unable to obtain additional financing, we may be required to raise additional equity capital, creating additional dilution to existing stockholders. There can be no assurance that we would be successful in raising such additional equity capital on favorable terms, if at all.  Even if we can obtain such additional equity financing if needed, there can be no assurance that we would be successful in raising such additional financing on favorable terms, if at all.

 

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have identified the following as our critical accounting policies:

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Such estimates include assumptions used within impairment analyses, estimated useful lives of depreciable assets and amortizable costs, estimates of inputs utilized in determining the fair value of financial instruments such as warrants, estimates and assumptions related to right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities, and estimates and assumptions used in the determination of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the business combination. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

 

Cost of Construction

 

Cost of construction on the consolidated balance sheets is carried at cost. The cost of acquiring an asset includes the costs necessary to bring a capital project to the condition necessary for its intended use. Costs are capitalized once the construction of a specific capital project is probable. Construction labor and other direct costs of construction are capitalized. Professional fees for engineering, procurement, consulting, and other soft costs that are directly identifiable with the project and are considered an incremental direct cost are capitalized. We allocate a portion of our internal salaries to both capitalized cost of construction and to general and administrative expense based on the percentage of time certain employees worked in the related areas. Interest costs on the loans and bonds used to fund the capital projects are also capitalized until the capital project is completed. Once a capital project is complete, the cost of the capital project is reclassified to Constructed Assets on the accompanying balance sheet and we begin to depreciate the constructed asset on a straight-line basis over the lesser of the life of the asset or the remaining term of the related ground lease, including expected renewal terms.

 

Leases

 

We account for leases under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842, Leases. We determine whether a contract contains a lease at the inception of the contract. ASC Topic 842 requires lessees to recognize operating lease liabilities and right-of-use (“ROU”) assets for all leases with terms of more than 12 months on the consolidated balance sheets. We have made an accounting policy election that will keep leases with an initial term of 12 months or less off our consolidated balance sheets and will result in recognizing those lease payments in the consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the lease term. When management determines that it is reasonably certain that we will exercise our options to renew the leases, the renewal terms are included in the lease term and the resulting ROU asset and operating lease liability balances. We have elected to not capitalize any interest cost that is implicit within our operating leases into cost of construction on the consolidated balance sheet, but instead, we expense our ground lease cost in the consolidated statements of operations. 

 

We have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components; we have elected the accounting policy to not separate lease and non-lease components for all underlying asset classes.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We lease hangar facilities that we construct to third parties. The lease agreements are either on a month-to-month basis or have a defined term and may have options to extend the term. Some of the leases contain options to terminate the lease by either party with given notice. There are no options given to the lessee to purchase the underlying assets. Rental revenue is recognized in accordance with ASC Topic 842, Leases, and includes (i) fixed payments of cash rents, which represents revenue each tenant pays in accordance with the terms of its respective lease and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease and (ii) variable payments of tenant reimbursements, which are recoveries of all or a portion of the common area maintenance and operating expenses of the property and are recognized in the same period as the expenses are incurred.

 

The Company evaluates the collectability of tenant receivables for payments required under the lease agreements. If the Company determines that collectability is not probable, the Company recognizes any difference between revenue amounts recognized to date under ASC 842 and payments that have been collected from the lessee, including any additional rent or lease termination fees, as a current period adjustment to rental revenue.

Revenues

 

Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were approximately $4.1 million, compared to approximately $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The $1.6 million, or 64%, increase was primarily the result of the commencement of operations at SJC during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and the impact of increased occupancy at our BNA and OPF hangar campuses, offset by approximately $0.4 million of net non-recurring adjustments to revenue recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2023, primarily associated with a negotiated lease termination fee from a former tenant of two hangars at OPF. Revenue associated with our delivery of aircraft fuel increased approximately $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023. 

 

Operating Expenses

 

Operating expenses increased approximately $2.0 million, or 120%, for the three months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in operating expense is primarily reflective of increased ground lease expense, which increased approximately $1.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in ground lease expense was driven primarily by a full quarter of expense associated with the ground and hangar lease signed at SJC during the three months ended March 31, 2024. The increase in ground lease expense was also driven by the ground leases signed at PWK, BDL, and POU during the three months ended December 31, 2023, ORL during the three months ended March 31, 2024, IAD during the three months ended June 30, 2024, and SLC during the three months ended September 30, 2024. Salaries, wages, and benefits associated with our campus personnel increased by approximately $0.2 million, primarily driven by a headcount increase associated with the commencement of operations at our SJC hangar campus. Other operating expenses increased by approximately $0.2 million, primarily driven by increased utility, insurance, and other start-up expenses associated with the commencement of operations at our SJC hangar campus. 

 

Depreciation Expense

 

Depreciation expense remained materially consistent for the three months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023. 

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, general and administrative expenses were approximately $4.6 million and $3.6 million, respectively. The approximately $1.0 million, or 30%, increase was primarily due to an approximately $0.7 million increase in salaries, wages, and other benefits, driven by an increase in corporate headcount and expense recognized associated with our equity compensation programs. Headcount and compensation expenses increased approximately $0.4 million and non-cash equity compensation expense increased approximately $0.3 million. Marketing and other pursuit costs increased by approximately $0.2 million, reflecting our growth strategy in securing airport site acquisitions and potential tenants.

 

Other (Income) Expense

 

Other expense increased from approximately $1.4 million of income for the three months ended September 30, 2023, to approximately $15.8 million of expense for the three months ended September 30, 2024. This increase was primarily due to an approximately $17.6 million difference in the mark-to-market adjustment of the outstanding warrants at September 30, 2024 as compared to September 30, 2023. The increase was also partially offset by an approximately $0.3 million increase in other income, primarily due to interest earned on our investments in U.S. Treasuries classified as available for sale.

Revenues

 

Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 were approximately $10.1 million, compared to approximately $5.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The $4.8 million, or 90%, increase was primarily the result of the commencement of operations at our SJC hangar campus and the cumulative impact of certain additional tenant leases in place at our BNA and OPF hangar campuses as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The commencement of operations at our SJC hangar campus together with the increase in occupancy at our OPF and BNA hangar campuses for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to September 30, 2023 resulted in increased rental revenues of approximately $3.8 million. Revenue associated with our delivery of aircraft fuel increased approximately $1.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Operating expenses increased approximately $3.9 million, or 76%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in operating expense is primarily reflective of increased ground lease expense, which increased by approximately $3.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in ground lease expense was driven primarily by two full quarters of operating lease expense associated with the ground and hangar lease signed at SJC during the three months ended March 31, 2024. The increase in ground lease expense was also driven by new ground leases signed at PWK, BDL, and POU during the three months ended December 31, 2023 and at ORL, IAD, and SLC during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.  Salaries, wages, and benefits associated with our campus personnel increased by approximately $0.4 million, primarily driven by a headcount increase associated with the commencement of operations at our SJC hangar campus in April 2024.

 

Depreciation Expense

 

Depreciation increased approximately $0.3 million, or 16%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase reflects a full nine months of depreciation associated with our OPF hangar campus, which opened during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase was also partially driven by the placement of additional ground support equipment into service throughout 2023 and 2024 and a full nine months of depreciation related to Rapidbuilt, which was acquired during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, general and administrative expenses were approximately $14.1 million and $10.8 million, respectively. The approximately $3.3 million, or 30%, increase was primarily due to an approximately $3.0 million increase in salaries, wages, and other benefits, driven by an increase in corporate headcount and expense recognized associated with our equity compensation programs. Headcount and compensation expenses increased approximately $1.6 million, and non-cash equity compensation expense increased approximately $1.4 million.

 

Other (Income) Expense

 

Other expense increased from approximately $0.1 million to approximately $22.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023. This increase was primarily due to an approximately $23.9 million difference in the mark-to-market adjustment of the outstanding warrants at September 30, 2024 as compared to September 30, 2023. The increase was also partially offset by an approximately $1.5 million increase in other income, primarily due to interest earned on our investments in U.S. Treasuries classified as available for sale.

 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Overview

 

Liquidity is a measure of our ability to meet potential cash requirements, including ongoing commitments to repay borrowings, fund the construction of new assets, fund working capital and other general business needs. Our primary sources of cash include the potential issuance of equity and debt securities and rental payments from tenants. Our long-term liquidity requirements include lease payments under our ground leases with airport authorities, repaying principal and interest on outstanding borrowings, funding the construction costs of our hangar campus development projects (see “— Construction Material Costs and Labor”), funding for operations, and paying accrued expenses. 

 

We believe that we have access to multiple sources of capital to fund our long-term liquidity requirements, including the incurrence of additional private activity bonds and other debt and the issuance of additional equity securities. We also have the ability to utilize our $100 million ATM Facility or otherwise utilize our shelf registration statement on Form S-3 to access the capital markets. However, as we have recently become a publicly-traded company, we cannot assure you that we will have access to these sources of capital or that, even if such sources of capital are available, that these sources of capital will be available on favorable terms. Our ability to incur additional debt will depend on multiple factors, including our degree of leverage, the value of our unencumbered assets and borrowing restrictions that are or may be imposed by future lenders. Our ability to access the equity and debt capital markets will depend on multiple factors as well, including general market conditions for real estate companies, our degree of leverage, the trading price of our common stock and debt and market perceptions about our Company.

 

Our cash deposits may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits. Generally, these deposits may be redeemed upon demand and the majority are maintained with a major financial institution with reputable credit. Our restricted cash is held in trust at a major financial institution pursuant to the Series 2021 Bonds indenture. We monitor the relative credit standing of financial institutions with whom we transact and limit the amount of credit exposure with any one entity. Our portfolio of investments and restricted investments is composed entirely of U.S. Treasury securities as of September 30, 2024.

2024 Private Placement and Securities Purchase Agreement

 

On September 16, 2024, we entered into the 2024 Private Placement Purchase Agreement with the Initial Investors relating to, among other things, the issuance and sale to the Initial Investors at an initial closing an aggregate of 3,352,106 Initial PIPE Shares of our Class A Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $31.8 million. On October 25, 2024, the Additional Investors each executed a joinder to the 2024 Private Placement Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which the Additional Investors agreed to purchase, and we agreed to sell, an aggregate of 603,684 additional shares of First Closing PIPE Shares for an aggregate purchase price of $5.7 million. The Initial Closing under the 2024 Private Placement Purchase Agreement occurred on October 25, 2024, and 3,955,790 First Closing PIPE Shares were issued to the Investors for an aggregate purchase price of $37.6 million.

 

The Investors have the option to purchase up to an aggregate of 3,955,790 shares of Second Closing PIPE Shares for an aggregate purchase price of up to $37.6 million. Each Investor has the option to purchase in the Second Closing up to a number of Second Closing PIPE Shares equal to the number of such Initial Investor’s Initial PIPE Shares purchased in the Initial Closing, at the same purchase price of $9.50 per share. The amount of Second Closing PIPE Shares, if any, to be issued at the Second Closing will be determined by each Investor in its sole discretion pursuant to each of their allocations, and the Second Closing will occur, if at all, at the sole discretion of the Investors, on or before the Second Closing Date, subject to customary closing conditions. 

 

2023 Private Placement and Securities Purchase Agreement

 

On November 1, 2023, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “2023 Private Placement Purchase Agreement”) with certain investors (collectively, the “2023 Investors”), pursuant to which we (i)  sold and issued to the 2023 Investors on November 2, 2023 an aggregate of 6,586,154 shares (the “2023 Initial PIPE Shares”) of our Class A Common Stock and accompanying warrants to purchase up to 1,141,600 shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Initial PIPE Warrants”), for an aggregate purchase price of $42.8 million (the “2023 Initial Financing”), and (ii) sold and issued to the 2023 Investors on November 29, 2023 an aggregate of 2,307,692 shares of our Class A Common Stock (the “2023 Additional PIPE Shares” and, together with the 2023 Initial PIPE Shares, the “2023 PIPE Shares”) and accompanying warrants to purchase an aggregate of 400,000 shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Additional PIPE Warrants” and, together with the Initial PIPE Warrants, the “PIPE Warrants”) for an aggregate purchase price of $15.0 million. Together with the 2023 Initial Financing, the aggregate PIPE financing through the 2023 Private Placement Purchase Agreement totaled approximately $57.8 million.

 

 

At-the-Market Facility

 

On March 27, 2024, we entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “ATM Agreement”) with B. Riley Securities, Inc. (“B. Riley”) with respect to an “at the market” offering program (the “ATM Facility”), under which we may, from time to time, at our sole discretion, issue and sell through B. Riley, acting as sales agent, up to $100 million of shares of Class A Common Stock. Pursuant to the ATM Agreement, we may sell the shares through B. Riley by any method permitted that is deemed an “at the market” offering as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act. B. Riley will use commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices to sell the shares from time to time, based upon instructions from us, including any price or size limits or other customary parameters or conditions we may impose. We will pay B. Riley a commission of 3.0% of the gross sales price per share sold under the ATM Agreement, subject to certain reductions. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, we sold no shares of Class A Common Stock under the ATM Facility. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we sold 7,407 shares of Class A Common Stock under the ATM Facility at a weighted-average sales price of $12.42.

 

We are not obligated to sell any shares under the ATM Agreement. The offering of shares pursuant to the ATM Agreement will terminate upon the earlier to occur of (i) the issuance and sale, through B. Riley, of all of the shares subject to the ATM Agreement and (ii) termination of the ATM Agreement in accordance with its terms. We have made limited sales under the ATM Facility to date and will only do so when our stock price is at prices our board of directors deems appropriate.

 

Private Activity Bonds

 

On September 14, 2021, SHC completed an issuance through the Public Finance Authority (Wisconsin) of $166.3 million of Senior Special Facility Revenue Bonds (Aviation Facilities Project), Series 2021 (the “PABs”). The PABs are comprised of three maturities: $21.1 million bearing interest at 4.00%, due July 1, 2036; $30.4 million bearing interest at 4.00%, due July 1, 2041; and $114.8 million bearing interest at 4.25%, due July 1, 2054. The Series 2021 Bond that has a maturity date of July 1, 2036 was issued at a premium, and Sky received bond proceeds that were $0.2 million above its face value. The net proceeds from the issuance of the PABs proceeds are being used to (a) finance or refinance the construction of various aviation facilities consisting of general aviation aircraft hangars and storage facilities located and to be located on the SGR site, the OPF site, the BNA site, the APA site, and the DVT site; (b) fund debt service and other operating expenses such as ground lease expense during the initial construction period; (c) fund deposits to the Debt Service Reserve Fund; and (d) pay certain costs of issuance related to the PABs.

 

Debt Covenants

 

The PABs contain financial and non-financial covenants, including a debt service coverage ratio, a restricted payments test and limitations on the sale, lease, or distribution of assets. To the extent that SHC does not comply with these covenants, an event of default or cross-default may occur under one or more agreements, and we or our subsidiaries may be restricted in our ability to pay dividends, issue new debt or access our leased facilities. The PABs are collateralized on a joint and several basis with the property and revenues of all SHC subsidiaries and their assets financed or to be financed from the proceeds of the PABs.

 

Covenants in the PABs require SHC to maintain a debt service coverage ratio (as defined in the relevant documents) of at least 1.25 for each applicable test period, commencing with the quarter ending December 31, 2024. The PABs are subject to a Continuing Disclosure Agreement whereby SHC is obligated to provide electronic copies of (i) monthly construction reports, (ii) quarterly reports containing quarterly financial information of SHC and (iii) annual reports containing audited consolidated financial statements of SHC to the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board. As of September 30, 2024, we were in compliance with all debt covenants.

Cash Flows

Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities

    169       (510 )

Cash and restricted cash at end of period

  $ 74,167     $ 36,760  

 

Operating Activities

 

Cash provided by operating activities is significantly influenced by the amount of cash we invest in personnel and infrastructure to support the anticipated growth of our business. Our working capital consists primarily of cash, receivables from tenants, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued compensation, accrued other expenses, and lease liabilities. The timing of collection of our tenant receivables, and the timing of spending commitments and payments of our accounts payable, accrued expenses, accrued payroll and related benefits, all affect these account balances.

 

 Net cash used in operating activities was approximately $6.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to cash used in operating activities of approximately $6.2 million for the same period in 2023. The $0.4 million increase in cash used in operating activities was primarily attributable to an approximately $2.5 million unfavorable change in the Company's working capital position, which was primarily driven by the timing of vendor payments and tenant receipts. The change in working capital position was offset by an approximately $2.1 million decrease in net loss, net of non-cash adjustments. The decrease in net loss, net of non-cash adjustments was primarily driven by an increase in rental revenue and the impact of increases in non-cash operating lease expense and equity-based compensation expense.

 

Investing Activities

 

Our primary investing activities have consisted of payments related to the cost of construction at our various hangar campus development projects and investment in U.S. Treasury Securities. As our business expands, we expect to continue to invest in our current and anticipated future portfolio of hangar campus development projects.

 

 Net cash provided by investing activities was approximately $8.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to cash provided by investing activities of approximately $2.1 million for the same period in 2023. The increase of approximately $6.3 million of cash provided by investing activities was driven primarily by an increase of approximately $185.1 million in proceeds received from the Company's available-for-sale investments, and a decrease of approximately $104 million of purchases of held-to-maturity investments. These increases were offset by an increase of approximately $201.5 million of available-for-sale U.S. Treasury purchases for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Proceeds received from the Company's held-to-maturity investments decreased by approximately $67.0 million and capital expenditures increased by approximately $14.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

 

Financing Activities

 

Our primary financing activities have consisted of capital raised to fund the growth of our business and proceeds from debt obligations incurred to finance our hangar campus development projects. We expect to raise additional equity capital and issue additional indebtedness as our business grows.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $0.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to net cash used in financing activities of approximately $0.5 million for the same period in 2023. The approximately $0.7 million increase in net cash provided by financing activities was primarily driven by $2.9 million of proceeds received from the exercise of Warrants during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, offset by increases of approximately $1.1 million, $0.8 million, and $0.4 million in payments associated with vested equity awards, loan principal payments, and equity issuance costs, respectively.

Except for as provided in Section 28.8, Nothing contained in this Section 10 shall be construed as conferring any benefit on any person not a party to this Lease, nor as creating any right in any person not a party to this Lease to enforcement of any obligation created under this Lease, or waiver of Landlord’s or Tenant’s rights with respect to any third party.

 

27

If Tenant’s remediation will leave Hazardous Materials in the soil or groundwater at the Airport prior to completion of the remediation, the Tenant shall obtain the Landlord’s written determination that such Hazardous Materials will not interfere with any reuse of the Premises reasonably contemplated or anticipated by the Landlord. If the Landlord does not make such a determination, Tenant will perform the remedial activities necessary to avoid interference with future reuse of the Premises (“Remediation for Reuse”). In the event Tenant fails to perform Tenants’ Remediation or Remediation for Reuse, the Landlord may conduct such reasonable investigation or remediation after providing Tenant with a written notice thirty (30) days in advance and Tenant does not diligently commence and pursue such actions. If the Landlord incurs such costs, Landlord may invoice one hundred and ten percent (110%) of reasonable and documented costs to Tenant.

Tenant acknowledges further that it may be necessary to undertake such actions to minimize the exposure of stormwater to “significant materials” generated, stored, handled or otherwise used by Tenant, as such term may be defined by applicable stormwater rules and regulations, by implementing and maintaining “best management practices” as that term may be defined in applicable stormwater rules and regulations.

 

28

 

11.2.3    Landlord may provide Tenant with written notice of any stormwater discharge permit requirements applicable to Tenant and with which Tenant may be obligated to comply from time-to-time, including but not limited to: certification of non-stormwater discharges; collection of stormwater samples specific to that Tenant’s operations; preparation of stormwater pollution prevention or similar plans; implementation of best management practices; and maintenance of necessary records. Such written notice shall include applicable deadlines. Tenant agrees that within thirty (30) days of receipt of such written notice it shall notify Landlord in writing if it disputes any of the stormwater permit requirements it is being directed to undertake. If Tenant does not provide such timely notice, Tenant will be deemed to assent to undertake such stormwater permit requirements applicable to Tenant’s operations. In that event, Tenant agrees to undertake, at its sole expense, unless otherwise agreed to in writing between Landlord and Tenant, those stormwater permit requirements that specifically apply to Tenant’s operations and can reasonably be complied with by a single tenant (as opposed to requiring broader cooperation and expense among several parties) for which it has received written notice from Landlord, and Tenant agrees that it will hold harmless and indemnify Landlord for any violations or non-compliance with any such permit requirements.

13.1.6    Certificates of Insurance.

 

Prior to execution of this Lease by Landlord, the Tenant shall provide City with certificates evidencing the coverage described above in a form acceptable to City Attorney’s Office. All certificates of insurance shall list Salt Lake City Corporation as Certificate Holder.

13.1.12    Waiver of Subrogation.

 

Notwithstanding any other provisions contained in this Lease, Tenant hereby waives any rights it may have against Landlord on account of any loss or damage to its property including the Premises and its contents, which arises from any risk generally covered by the insurance or any other insurance required to be carried hereunder, whether or not such other party may have been negligent or at fault in causing such loss or damage. Tenant shall obtain a clause or endorsement in the policies of such insurance which it obtains in connection with the Premises or other area at the Airport to the effect that the insurer waives, or shall otherwise be denied, the right of subrogation against Landlord for any loss covered by such insurance.

 

33

 

13.1.13    Adequacy of Coverage.

 

Property Insurance means fire and property insurance and builder’s risk insurance sufficient to avoid co-insurance, with “ordinance or law” coverage. Such insurance may contain a deductible clause.

To the extent customary for like properties at similar airports in the United States, such insurance shall include coverage for explosion of steam and pressure boilers and similar apparatus located on the Premises; coverage for terrorism; an “increased cost of construction” endorsement; and an endorsement covering demolition and cost of debris removal. Premises Insurance shall also include rental or business interruption insurance in an amount at least equal to twelve times annual Rent and Real Estate Taxes and providing for a 6-month extended period of indemnity. The insurance coverage shall be for not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the full replacement value of the Improvements and Building. Throughout the Term of this Lease, Landlord and Tenant shall periodically (but not more often than once per calendar year) determine a reasonable amount clause for the full replacement value of the Improvements and Building. The payment of deductibles under any insurance policy required by this Lease shall be made solely by the Tenant, and the Landlord shall not have any liability for payment thereof. Landlord and Tenant will agree upon a reasonable and customary deductible on said Improvements and Building in light of the creditworthiness and use of the Premises of the new Tenant. Such amount is subject to the final approval by Landlord in Landlord’s sole discretion. Landlord maintains property insurance that covers the Airport, but will not cover any Improvements made by Tenant to the Premises.

 

13.1.14    Builders Risk Insurance.

 

During any construction activity, Tenant shall obtain and maintain for the benefit of Landlord “special peril” Builder’s Risk insurance equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the value of Tenant’s Improvement project. Coverage shall also include: (a) form work in place; (b) form lumber on site; (c) temporary structures; (d) equipment; and (e) supplies related to the work while at the site. In the event Tenant fails to maintain such insurance, Landlord may, at its option and upon notice to Tenant, arrange therefor, and any premium incurred shall be reimbursed by Tenant to Landlord upon demand.

 

13.1.15    Pollution Liability Insurance.

 

Tenant shall obtain and maintain a Pollution Legal Liability Insurance with a limit of not less than $5,000,000 each occurrence or claim, protecting Tenant from and against liability for bodily injury, property damage, personal injury, environmental site restoration, and clean-up costs, including fines and penalties in accordance with applicable EPA and State regulations. This insurance may not exclude coverage for mold and legionella. Tenant must maintain such coverage for a period of five (5) years after the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease. If this insurance contains a general aggregate limit, it must apply separately to operations under this Lease.

 

13.1.16    Hangarkeepers Liability Insurance.

 

Tenant shall insure for any and all Tenant controlled aircraft on the Leased Premises. Such insurance shall have limits of no less than $5,000,000 each occurrence or claim.

14.2

Duty to Repair and Replace.

 

If less than 30% of the square footage of the Premises (including the Improvements thereon) are damaged by a Casualty, then such damage is deemed an immaterial loss (“Immaterial Loss”) and Tenant shall, at its own cost and expense, promptly repair, replace, and rebuild the Premises and the Improvements, at least to the extent of the value and as nearly as practicable to the character of Improvements existing immediately prior to such occurrence, and in accordance with the procedures for Landlord’s advance review and approval of plans, etc.

 

 

14.3

Substantial Casualty.

 

If 30% or more of the square footage of the Premises (including the Improvements thereon) are damaged by a Casualty, then such damage is deemed a substantial casualty (“Substantial Casualty”) and Tenant will have the option within a period of thirty (30) days of the date of such Substantial Casualty to elect to terminate the Lease by giving Landlord written notice thereof. If Tenant does not exercise this option, Tenant will promptly repair, replace, and rebuild as set forth in Section 13.2 above. If Tenant does not elect to repair, replace, and rebuild, then the Landlord may request that Tenant demolish the Improvements and return the Premises to substantially the same condition as at the Effective Date.

 

 

14.4

Adjustment of Claims; Use of Property Insurance Proceeds.

 

Unless Tenant has validly elected to terminate the Lease due to a Substantial Casualty, Tenant shall have the sole right and authority to adjust any insurance claim. Property insurance proceeds shall be disbursed: (a) in the case of an Immaterial Loss, to Tenant, to be held in trust to be applied first for restoration; and (b) in the case of any other Casualty, to Tenant for the sole purpose of restoration of the Premises in accordance with Section 13.2 above.

15.1

Utility Easements.

 

Landlord reserves to itself and the right to grant to others in the future nonexclusive utility easements (including easements for construction, maintenance, repair, replacement and reconstruction) over, under, through, across or on the Premises in locations that will not unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s use thereof. Landlord also reserves to itself, and the right to grant to others in the future, nonexclusive easements for purposes of access to adjacent Airport property or other property adjacent to the Premises in which Landlord has rights over, under, through, across or on the Premises in locations that will not unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s use thereof. Tenant shall not be obligated to maintain or repair facilities constructed by or on behalf of others under authority granted to them by Landlord and located on the Premises, unless the need for repair is caused by Tenant’s negligence or other wrongful conduct. Any interference as a result of any such easements shall be temporary, and all work on the Premises shall proceed expeditiously and in a manner so to not unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s operations on the Premises. Tenant shall be given reasonable notice before commencement of any work on the Premises. Such work shall not result in the closure of any business on the Premises. In the event the installation or maintenance of such future utility lines in such easements causes any damage to the Premises, or any portion thereof, including but not limited to pavement, curbs and sidewalks, the same shall be repaired by Landlord at its expense, if not so repaired by the party installing and maintaining the line.

 

 

15.2

Landlords Operational Rights.

 

Landlord reserves to itself a nonexclusive operational easement (including easements for installation, construction, maintenance, repair, replacement and reconstruction) over, under, through, across or on the Premises in locations that will not unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s use thereof to install items related to the operation of the Airport as well as the provision of safety and security for the Airport or as required by law, including without limitation the installation of security cameras and antennas on the roof of any Building that may be constructed on the Premises as well as related facilities and equipment. Tenant shall not be obligated to maintain or repair facilities or equipment constructed or installed under the terms of the aforementioned easement, unless the need for repair is caused by Tenant’s negligence or other wrongful conduct. Any interference as a result of any such easements shall be temporary, and all work on the Premises shall proceed expeditiously and in a manner so as to minimize unreasonable interference with Tenant’s operations. Tenant shall be given reasonable notice before commencement of any work on the Premises. Such work shall not result in the permanent closure of any business on the Premises. In the event any installation or maintenance as permitted under this Section 14.2 causes any damage to the Premises, or any portion thereof, the same shall be repaired by Landlord at its expense.

 

 

15.3

Upon at least twenty-four (24) months’ prior Notice to the Tenant, Landlord shall have the right to relocate, at Landlord’s expense, any portion of Tenant’s facilities located on the Premises and the Improvements constructed thereon at Landlord’s sole cost and expense. Landlord shall relocate the Premises and the Improvements constructed thereon to another comparable location at the Airport, in which event the “Premises” shall be revised to include the new location of such relocated facilities and not to include the former location(s), as appropriate. Except as otherwise agreed between the parties, the Improvements to be constructed by Landlord on the relocated Premises will be of equal or better quality. Landlord agrees to use all reasonable efforts to minimize interference with Tenant’s operations at the Premises in connection with any such relocation.

19.6

Accord and Satisfaction; Partial Payments.

Tenant shall be responsible for payment of all of Landlord’s costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, incurred in reviewing any proposed Approved Leasehold Mortgage hereunder.

 

29.2         If an Approved Leasehold Mortgagee gives Landlord written notice of such Approved Leasehold Mortgagee’s interest in the Premises and such notice contains the address to which notices to such Approved Leasehold Mortgagee are to be sent, Landlord will thereafter send such Approved Leasehold Mortgagee, at the address given, and in the manner set forth in Section 20 of this Lease, a copy of any notice of default which Landlord may thereafter deliver or send to Tenant. Within the time permitted for the curing or commencing the curing of any default under this Lease, such Approved Leasehold Mortgagee, at its option, may pay any amount due or do any other act or thing required of Tenant by the terms of this Lease, and all amounts so paid or other acts so done by Approved Leasehold Mortgagee shall be effective to cure such default as the same would have been if paid or done by Tenant. Landlord shall have no liability or obligation to either Tenant or an Approved Leasehold Mortgagee to provide notice of a Tenant default or liability for failure to provide such notice if Tenant or Approved Leasehold Mortgagee does not provide written notice, with affirmative written confirmation of receipt from Landlord, of such notice address to Landlord.

 

29.3.         An Approved Leasehold Mortgagee shall not become liable for Tenant’s obligations under this Lease unless and until such Approved Leasehold Mortgagee becomes the owner of the leasehold estate established hereby by foreclosure, assignment in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, or if such Approved Leasehold Mortgagee gives notice to Landlord that such Approved Leasehold Mortgagee will assume Tenant’s obligations under this Lease. An Approved Leasehold Mortgagee shall remain liable for the obligations of Tenant under this Lease only for so long as it remains the owner of the leasehold estate established hereby.

 

56

 

29.4         If any default or event of default occurs under an Approved Leasehold Mortgage, the Approved Leasehold Mortgagee and Tenant shall immediately, and in no event later than five (5) business days of learning thereof, notify Landlord of the same in writing.

 

29.5         If a non-monetary default by Tenant under this Lease is susceptible of being cured by an Approved Leasehold Mortgagee only after such Approved Leasehold Mortgagee has obtained possession of the Premises, then an Approved Leasehold Mortgagee shall have an additional period not to exceed thirty (30) days to cure a non-monetary default after obtaining possession of the Premises; provided, however, that (i) such Approved Leasehold Mortgagee initiated all necessary actions to obtain possession of the Premises, including the initiation of foreclosure proceedings under its Approved Leasehold Mortgage, within ninety (90) days after the earlier of the date on which such Approved Leasehold Mortgagee became aware of such non-monetary default or the date on which such Approved Leasehold Mortgagee received notice from Landlord of such non-monetary default; (ii) such Approved Leasehold Mortgagee shall have pursued such actions with reasonable diligence; (iii) such Approved Leasehold Mortgagee, within any applicable cure period provided in this Lease, shall have paid all Rent and other sums then due to Landlord under this Lease; and (iv) such Approved Leasehold Mortgagee shall have cured any other defaults by Tenant under this Lease that are susceptible of being cured by such Approved Leasehold Mortgagee without obtaining possession of the Premises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the rights granted to an Approved Leasehold Mortgagee in this Article shall not impair any right granted to Landlord in this Lease (a) to perform any obligations under this Lease that Tenant is required, but fails, to perform, and (b) to obtain reimbursement from Tenant of Landlord’s costs and expenses incurred in so performing and, subject to rights granted to an Approved Leasehold Mortgagee, to declare an Event of Default if Tenant fails so to reimburse within any applicable cure period.

 

29.6         Tenant shall be permitted to finance the design, construction and operation of the Tenant Improvements through the issuance of Private Activity Bonds (“PAB”), provided, however, Landlord shall have the right to review and approve (which approval shall not be unreasonably conditioned, delayed or withheld) all instruments and documents to be executed by, or binding upon, Tenant in connection with the issuance of such PABs. Tenant must submit drafts of the PAB financing documents to Landlord for review and approval at least 30 days in advance of Tenant’s execution of such documents. Subject to Landlord’s rights to review and approve any leasehold mortgage and PAB financing documents. Landlord shall provide customary consents and all related approvals required in connection with a PAB issuance and leasehold mortgage as part of the PAB financing program, which will be provided at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Any lien created to secure such financing or any other debt undertaken by Tenant shall be secured by Tenant’s leasehold interest in the Lease and the Tenant Improvements and shall not be secured by the fee interest in the Premises. IT IS UNDERSTOOD AND AGREED THAT TENANT’S FINANCING OF THE TENANT IMPROVEMENTS THROUGH THE ISSUANCE OF PABS IS SOLELY THE DEBT OF TENANT AND SHALL NOT RESULT IN ANY FINANCIAL BURDEN OR OBLIGATION OF LANDLORD IN ANY MANNER, INCLUDING ANY COST OR EXPENSE ASSOCIATED WITH THE TEFRA HEARING OR ANY OTHER CONSENT OR APPROVAL REQUIRED TO BE PROVIDED BY LANDLORD. To the extent that the financing document(s) with respect to the Approved Leasehold Mortgage, provide for a lien on any revenues of the Tenant that are available to make lease payments due under this lease, such financing documents(s) shall require that such revenues be used to make the required lease payments hereunder prior to being used to pay debt service to the Approved Leasehold Mortgagee. Lienholders through PAB financing described herein shall be included within the definition of Approved Leasehold Mortgagee.

 

57

 

29.7         If this Lease is terminated for Tenant’s breach before the end of the Term, for any reason other than a default that has not been cured by Tenant or Approved Leasehold Mortgagee within the period specified, including, without limitation, as a result of a rejection or disaffirmation of the Lease in a bankruptcy, insolvency or other proceeding affecting creditor’s rights then Landlord shall provide a copy of the termination notice to the Approved Leasehold Mortgagee. Upon the written request of Approved Leasehold Mortgagee made any time within thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notice from Landlord, Landlord shall agree to enter into a new lease of the Premises with Approved Leasehold Mortgagee for the remainder of the Term of the Lease upon the same covenants, conditions, limitations and agreements contain in the Lease, except for such provisions which must be modified to reflect any such termination, and the passage of time, provided, that, in the event of any such termination, Approved Leasehold Mortgagee (or such successor or assign) (A) shall pay to Landlord, simultaneously with the delivery of such new lease, all unpaid amounts due under the Lease up to and including the date of the commencement of the term of such new lease and all reasonable and substantiated expenses incurred by Landlord to prepare such new lease, and (B) otherwise shall cure all other defaults under the Lease promptly and with due diligence after the delivery of such new lease. If Landlord does not enter into a new lease with the Approved Leasehold Mortgagee, the Improvements shall immediately vest with the City and then the Approved Leasehold Mortgagee shall immediately remove all trade fixtures and other personal property from the Premises and repair to Landlord’s reasonable satisfaction, any damage caused to the Premises by the removal. The Approved Leasehold Mortgagee shall not remove or tamper with any improvement on the Premises.

 

29.8         Tenant’s present and future Approved Leasehold Mortgagee and any present and future approved mortgagees for which Landlord has received written notice and described under Section 20 and Section 29.2 are intended third party beneficiaries to this Article. As third-party beneficiaries, they are entitled to the applicable rights under and may enforce the provisions of this Article of the Lease as if they were parties thereto. Nothing contained herein shall release Tenant from any of its obligations under this Lease that may not have been discharged or fully performed by an Approved Leasehold Mortgagee.

 

29.9         Nothing contained herein shall release Tenant from any of its obligations under this Lease that may not have been discharged or fully performed by an Approved Leasehold Mortgagee.

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and the related notes (the “Financial Statements”) have been prepared in conformity with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) requirements for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, and consequently exclude certain disclosures normally included in audited consolidated financial statements prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).These Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, which includes additional disclosures and a summary of the Company's significant accounting policies. In the Company’s opinion, these Financial Statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring items, considered necessary by management to fairly state the Company’s results of operation, financial position, and cash flows.

 

Certain historical amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Such estimates include assumptions used within impairment analyses, estimated useful lives of depreciable assets and amortizable costs, estimates of inputs utilized in determining the fair value of financial instruments such as warrants, estimates and assumptions related to right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities, and estimates and assumptions used in the determination of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the business combination. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The Company’s operations have been limited to-date. For most of its history, the Company has been engaged in securing access to land through ground leases and developing and constructing aviation hangars. The major risks faced by the Company is its future ability to obtain additional tenants for the facilities that it constructs, and to contract with such tenants for rental income in an amount that is sufficient to meet the Company’s financial obligations, including increasing construction costs due to inflation and increased borrowing costs to the extent that the Company incurs additional indebtedness.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As a result of ongoing construction projects and business development activities, including the development of aircraft hangars and the leasing of available hangar space, the Company has incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from operating activities since its inception. The Company expects to continue to invest in such activities and generate operating losses in the near future.

 

The Company obtained long-term financing through bond and equity offerings to fund its construction, lease, and operational commitments, and believes its liquidity is sufficient to allow continued operations for more than one year after the date these financial statements are issued.

 

Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Consolidation

 

SHG is deemed to have a controlling interest of Sky through its appointment as the Managing Member of Sky, in which SHG has control over the affairs and decision-making of Sky. The interests in Sky not owned by the Company are presented as non-controlling interests. Sky’s ownership percentage in each of its consolidated subsidiaries is 100%, unless otherwise disclosed.

 

Cost of Construction

 

Cost of construction on the consolidated balance sheets is carried at cost. The cost of acquiring an asset includes the costs necessary to bring a capital project to the condition necessary for its intended use. Costs are capitalized once the construction of a specific capital project is probable. Construction labor and other direct costs of construction are capitalized. Professional fees for engineering, procurement, consulting, and other soft costs that are directly identifiable with the project and are considered an incremental direct cost are capitalized. Activities associated with internally manufactured hangar buildings, including materials, direct manufacturing labor, and manufacturing overhead directly identifiable with such activities are allocated to our construction projects and capitalized. The Company allocates a portion of its internal salaries to both capitalized cost of construction and to general and administrative expense based on the percentage of time certain employees worked in the related areas. Interest, net of the amortization of debt issuance costs and premiums, and net of interest income earned on bond proceeds, is also capitalized until the capital project is completed.

 

Once a capital project is complete, the Company begins to depreciate the constructed asset on a straight-line basis over the lesser of the life of the asset or the remaining term of the related ground lease, including expected renewal terms. 

 

Leases

 

The Company accounts for leases under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842, Leases. The Company determines whether a contract contains a lease at the inception of the contract. ASC Topic 842 requires lessees to recognize lease liabilities and right-of-use (“ROU”) assets for all operating leases with terms of more than 12 months on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company has made an accounting policy election to not recognize leases with an initial term of 12 months or less on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and will result in recognizing those lease payments in the consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the lease term. When management determines that it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise its options to renew the leases, the renewal terms are included in the lease term and the resulting ROU asset and lease liability balances.

 

The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components; the Company has elected the accounting policy to not separate lease and non-lease components for all underlying asset classes. The Company has not elected to capitalize any interest cost that is implicit within its operating leases into cost of construction on the consolidated balance sheet, but instead, expenses its ground lease cost as a component of operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.

 

Warrants liability

 

The Company accounts for its Warrants (as defined in Note 10 — Warrants) in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”), under which warrants that do not meet the criteria for equity classification and must be recorded as derivative liabilities. Accordingly, the Company classifies the Warrants as liabilities carried at their fair value and adjusts the warrants to fair value at each reporting period. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until the warrants are exercised or expire, and any change in fair value is recognized in the consolidated statement of operations.

 

Revenue recognition

 

The Company leases the hangar facilities that it constructs to third parties. The lease agreements are either on a month-to-month basis or have a defined term and may have options to extend the term. Some of the leases contain options to terminate the lease by either party with given notice. There are no options given to the lessee to purchase the underlying assets. Rental revenue is recognized in accordance with ASC Topic 842, Leases (see Note 8 — Leases) and includes fixed payments of cash rents, which represents revenue each tenant pays in accordance with the terms of its respective lease and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Rental revenue and the corresponding rent and other receivables are recorded net of any concessions and uncollectible tenant receivables for all periods presented. The Company evaluates the collectability of tenant receivables for payments required under the lease agreements. If the Company determines that collectability is not probable, the Company recognizes any difference between revenue amounts recognized to date under ASC 842 and payments that have been collected from the lessee, including any additional rent or lease termination fees, as a current period adjustment to rental revenue.

 

Variable lease payments consist of tenant reimbursements for common area maintenance, utilities, and operating expenses of the property, and various other fees, including fees associated with the delivery of aircraft fuel, late fees, and lease termination fees. Variable lease payments are charged based on the terms and conditions included in the respective tenant leases and are recognized in the same period as the expenses are incurred. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, rental revenue includes $817 and $1,870 of variable lease payments, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, rental revenue includes $920 and $1,224 of variable lease payments, respectively.

 

As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the deferred rent receivable included in prepaid expenses and other assets was $501 and $367, respectively. Rent received in advance represents tenant payments received prior to the contractual due date, and is included in accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other liabilities. Rent received in advance consisted of $297 and $241 as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

 

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 the Company did not derive 10% of its revenue from any single tenant. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 the Company derived approximately 46% and 38% of its revenue from two tenants, respectively.

 

Income Taxes

 

SHG is classified as a corporation for Federal income tax purposes and is subject to U.S. Federal and state income taxes. SHG includes in income, for U.S. Federal income tax purposes, its allocable portion of income from the “pass-through” entities in which it holds an interest, including Sky. The “pass-through” entities, are not subject to U.S. Federal and certain state income taxes at the entity level, and instead, the tax liabilities with respect to taxable income are passed through to the members, including SHG. As a result, prior to the Yellowstone Transaction, Sky was not subject to U.S. Federal and certain state income taxes at the entity level.

 

The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. This method gives consideration to the future tax consequences associated with the differences between the financial accounting and tax basis of the assets and liabilities as well as the ultimate realization of any deferred tax asset resulting from such differences, as well as from net operating losses and other tax-basis carryforwards. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized. When a valuation allowance is increased or decreased, a corresponding tax expense or benefit is recorded.

 

The Company recorded income tax expense of $0 and the effective tax rate was 0.0% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. The effective income tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 differs from the federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to a full valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets as it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized due to the cumulative losses sustained by the Company to date.

Rapidbuilt Acquisition

 

On  May 12, 2023 (the “Option Exercise Date”), Sky exercised its option to acquire a 51% equity interest in Overflow Ltd., a Texas limited partnership (“Overflow”), and its wholly-owned operating subsidiary, Rapidbuilt, Inc., a Texas corporation (“Rapidbuilt”), for nominal consideration (the “Rapidbuilt Acquisition”). As a result of the Rapidbuilt Acquisition, Weatherford Steel Buildings Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of Sky (“WSBH”), owns a 50% limited partnership interest in Overflow, and Weatherford Steel Buildings GP LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of Sky (“WSB GP”), owns a 1% general partnership interest in Overflow. 

 

Rapidbuilt is a manufacturer of pre-engineered steel buildings that previously entered into a supplier arrangement with Sky. Rapidbuilt and Sky’s strategic partnership has resulted in a standard set of proprietary prototype hangar designs, which are intended to deliver high-quality business aviation facilities, lower construction costs, minimize development risk, expedite permit issuance, and facilitate the implementation of refinements across Sky’s portfolio. The Company had pre-existing relationships with Rapidbuilt through a vendor agreement entered into in  July 2022 to acquire construction materials related to the Company's development projects (the “Rapidbuilt Vendor Agreement”) and a revolving line of credit loan and security agreement (the “Rapidbuilt Loan Agreement”) to fund the working capital requirement of Rapidbuilt. These pre-existing relationships were effectively settled in the acquisition and the net receivable balance of $44 is included within the consideration transferred. No gain or loss was recognized in the effective settlement of the Rapidbuilt Vendor Agreement and the Rapidbuilt Loan Agreement.

 

The total cash purchase consideration was nominal. The Company accounted for the acquisition using the acquisition method of accounting, whereby the total purchase price was allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on respective estimated fair values.

 

The following tables summarize the allocation of the purchase price to the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed for the Rapidbuilt Acquisition:

Following the Rapidbuilt Acquisition, substantially all of Overflow and Rapidbuilt's activities relate to the manufacturing of pre-engineering hangar structures for Sky's hangar development projects. As such, the pro-forma effect of this acquisition on revenues and earnings was not material.

Investments and Restricted Investments

 

Investments of the Company's cash in various U.S. Treasury securities have been classified as available-for-sale and are carried at estimated fair value utilizing Level 1 inputs as determined based upon quoted market prices.

 

Pursuant to provisions within the Master Indenture of the Series 2021 Bonds, as defined in Note 9 — Bonds payable, loans payable, and interest, the Company invests the funds held in the restricted trust bank accounts in various U.S. Treasury securities. Therefore, such investments are reported as “Restricted investments” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Unrealized losses on certain of the Company's investments and restricted investments are primarily attributable to changes in interest rates. The Company does not believe the unrealized losses represent impairments because the unrealized losses are due to general market factors. The Company has not recognized an allowance for expected credit losses related to its investments or restricted investments as the Company has not identified any unrealized losses attributable to credit factors during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. The held-to-maturity restricted investments are carried on the consolidated balance sheet at amortized cost. As of September 30, 2024, the Company has the ability and intent to hold these restricted investments until maturity, and as a result, the Company would not expect the value of these investments to decline significantly due to a sudden change in market interest rates. The fair value of the Company’s restricted investments is estimated utilizing Level 1 inputs including prices for U.S. Treasury securities with comparable maturities on active markets.

 

The following tables set forth summaries of the amortized cost, unrealized gains, unrealized losses, and fair value by investment type as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

The Company’s ground leases at airports are classified as operating leases under ASC Topic 842. Management has determined that it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise its options to renew the leases, and therefore the renewal options are included in the lease term and the resulting ROU asset and operating lease liability balances. As the Company’s lease agreements do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate, nor is the rate available to the Company from its lessors, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of the lease payments. In addition to the Company’s ground leases, the Company has operating leases for office space and ground support vehicles, and finance leases for vehicles supporting operations at Rapidbuilt.

 

The Company’s lease population does not include any residual value guarantees. The Company has operating leases that contain variable payments, most commonly in the form of common area maintenance and operating expense charges, which are based on actual costs incurred. These variable payments were excluded from the calculation of the ROU asset and operating lease liability balances since they are not fixed or in-substance fixed payments. These variable payments were not material in amount for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. Some of the leases contain covenants that require the Company to construct the hangar facilities on the leased grounds within a certain period and spend a set minimum dollar amount. For one of the leases, the shortfall (if any) must be paid to the lessor. See Note 15 — Commitments and Contingencies.

 

The Company’s ground leases have remaining terms ranging between 16 to 73 years, including options for the Company to extend the terms. These leases expire between 2040 and 2097, which include all lease extension options available to the Company. Certain of the Company's ground leases contain options to lease additional parcels of land at the Company's option within a specified period of time.

 

In March 2024, the Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a ground lease agreement (the “SJC Lease”) at SJC with the City of San Jose. The SJC Lease covers approximately 7 acres of property that contains an approximately 38,000 square foot hangar, approximately 19,000 square feet of office space, and approximately 108,000 square feet of apron and ramp space. The property at SJC includes additional land on which the Company intends to develop approximately 28,000 square feet of additional hangar space. The initial term of the SJC Lease will be 20 years from  May 1, 2024, and contains a mutual option to extend the SJC Lease an additional 5 years following the expiration of the initial term.

 

In March 2024, the Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a ground lease agreement (the “ORL Lease”) at ORL with the Greater Orlando Aviation Authority (“GOAA”). The ORL Lease covers a parcel containing approximately 20 acres of land at ORL. The initial term of the ORL Lease will be 30 years from expiration of construction period, with lease payments commencing contemporaneously with the term. The ORL Lease contains options exercisable by the Company to extend the ORL Lease an additional 20 years based on the Company's total expenditures in subsequent phases at ORL.

 

In May 2024, the Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a ground lease agreement (the “IAD Lease”) at IAD with the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority (“MWAA”). The IAD Lease covers approximately 18 acres of property at IAD. The initial term of the IAD Lease will be approximately 50 years and expire on March 31, 2074, and contains an option exercisable by the Company to extend the IAD Lease an additional 10 years following the expiration of the initial term. The property covered by the IAD Lease is split between two parcels, with rent payments associated with the first parcel (“IAD Phase I”) commencing the earlier of certificate of occupancy or 36 months from the issuance of permits for IAD Phase I, and rent payments associated with the second parcel (“IAD Phase II”) commencing the earlier of issuance of permits for IAD Phase II or five years from certificate of occupancy associated with IAD Phase I. The IAD Lease requires the Company to commence construction related to IAD Phase II within five years of the receipt of the certificate of occupancy for IAD Phase I.

Bonds payable, loans payable, and interest

 

Bonds payable

 

On May 20, 2021, Sky formed a new wholly-owned subsidiary, Sky Harbour Capital LLC (“SHC”), as a parent corporation to its wholly-owned subsidiaries that operate each of the aircraft hangar development sites under its ground leases. SHC and these subsidiaries form an Obligated Group (the “Obligated Group” or the “Borrowers”) under a series of bonds that were issued in September 2021 with a principal amount of $166.3 million (the “Series 2021 Bonds”). The members of the Obligated Group are jointly and severally liable under the Series 2021 Bonds. SHG and its other subsidiaries are not members of the Obligated Group and have no obligation to repay the bonds.

 

The Series 2021 Bonds are payable pursuant to a loan agreement dated September 1, 2021 between the Public Finance Authority (of Wisconsin) and the Borrowers. The payments by the Borrowers under the loan agreement are secured by a Senior Master Indenture Promissory Note, Series 2021-1 issued by the Obligated Group under an indenture (the “Master Indenture”). The obligations of the Borrowers are collateralized by certain leasehold and subleasehold deeds of trust or mortgages on the Borrowers’ interests in the development sites and facilities being constructed at each airport where the Borrowers hold ground leases. In addition, the Borrowers have assigned, pledged and granted a first priority security interest in all funds held under the Master Indenture and all right, title and interest in the gross revenues of the Borrowers. Furthermore, Sky, Sky Harbour Holdings LLC and SHC have each pledged as collateral its respective ownership interest in any of the Borrowers.

 

The Series 2021 Bonds have principal amounts, interest rates, and maturity dates as follow: $21.1 million bearing interest at 4.00%, due July 1, 2036; $30.4 million bearing interest at 4.00%, due July 1, 2041; and $114.8 million bearing interest at 4.25%, due July 1, 2054. The Series 2021 Bond that has a maturity date of July 1, 2036 was issued at a premium, and the Company received bond proceeds that were $0.2 million above its face value. The bond premium is being amortized as a reduction of interest expense over the life of the bond. Interest is payable on each January 1 and July 1, commencing January 1, 2022. Principal repayments due under the Series 2021 Bonds are paid annually, commencing July 1, 2032.

 

On  March 22, 2023, SHC elected to modify the scope of the Series 2021 Bonds pursuant to the terms of the Master Indenture, in order to reallocate a portion of the proceeds of the Series 2021 Bonds to its project site located at ADS (the “ADS Project”) . In connection with the election to modify the scope of the Series 2021 PABs to include the ADS Project, (i) Addison Hangars LLC (“Sky Harbour Addison”) and OPF Hangars Landlord LLC (“OPF Hangars”) joined as members of the Obligated Group, (ii) Sky Harbour Holdings LLC contributed its membership interest in OPF Hangars to SHC, (iii) SHC pledged its equity interest in each of Sky Harbour Addison and OPF Hangars to the Master Trustee as security for the obligations under the Series 2021 Bonds, (iv) Sky Harbour Addison granted to the Master Trustee a mortgage on its leasehold interest in the real property comprising the ADS Project, (v) OPF Hangars granted the Master Trustee a mortgage on its leasehold interest in the real estate comprising the project located in Opa Locka, Florida, and (vi) Sky Harbour Services LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, has agreed to waive all management fees and development fees during the construction period of the projects associated with the Series 2021 Bonds.

 

As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair value of the Company’s Series 2021-1 Bonds was approximately $141.5 million and $116.5 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair value of the Company’s bonds is estimated utilizing Level 2 inputs including prices for the bonds on inactive markets.

Warrants

 

SHG's legal predecessor, Yellowstone Acquisition Company (“YAC”), issued to third-party investors 6,799,439 warrants which entitled the holder to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share (the “Public Warrants”). In addition, 7,719,779 private placement warrants were sold to BOC Yellowstone LLC (the “Sponsor”). Each Private Warrant allows the Sponsor to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share. The Public Warrants and Private Warrants remain outstanding under the same terms and conditions to purchase shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock. The terms of the Private Warrants are identical to those of the Public Warrants, except for that so long as the Private Warrants are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees, they  may be exercised on a cashless basis.

 

In connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Private Placement Purchase Agreement”) entered into on November 1, 2023 with certain investors, the Company issued to third-party investors 1,541,600 warrants (the “PIPE Warrants”, and together with the Public Warrants and the Private Warrants, the “Warrants”). The PIPE Warrants are equivalent in form and substance to the Company’s Public Warrants. 

 

The Warrants contain an exercise price of $11.50 per share and expire on  January 25, 2027. The Company determined the fair value of its Public Warrants and PIPE Warrants based on the publicly listed trading price as of the valuation date. Accordingly, these warrants are classified as Level 1 financial instruments. As the terms of the Private Warrants are identical to those of the Public Warrants, the Company determined the fair value of its Private Warrants based on the publicly listed trading price of the Public Warrants as of the valuation date and have classified the Private Warrants as Level 2 financial instruments.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, 257,342 Warrants were exercised, resulting in approximately $3.0 million of proceeds. There were no warrants exercised during the three months ended September 30, 2024. As of  September 30, 2024, 15,803,001 Warrants remain outstanding. 

 

The closing price of the Warrants was $2.25 and $0.75 per warrant on  September 30, 2024 and  December 31, 2023, respectively. The aggregate fair value of the outstanding Warrants was approximately $35.6 million and $12.0 million as of  September 30, 2024 and  December 31, 2023, respectively. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recorded an unrealized loss associated with the change in fair value of the Warrants of approximately $16.0 million. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded an unrealized gain of approximately $1.6 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded unrealized losses associated with the change in fair value of the Warrants of approximately $23.9 million and $0, respectively.

Earnings (loss) per Share

 

Basic earnings (loss) per share of Class A Common Stock is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to SHG by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share of Class A Common Stock is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to SHG, adjusted for the assumed exchange of all potentially dilutive securities, by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding adjusted to give effect to potentially dilutive shares using the treasury stock or if-converted method as appropriate. Shares of the Company’s Class B Common Stock do not participate in the earnings or losses of the Company and are therefore not participating securities. As such, separate presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share of Class B Common Stock under the two-class method has not been presented.

The APA Lease requires the Company to improve the property in accordance with a development plan included in the lease and to complete such improvements within 24-months of the issuance of permitting documents. Construction began on the APA Phase I project in October 2022.

 

The DVT Lease requires approximately $15.3 million and $14.6 million of improvements to be made for Phase I and for Phase II, if such option is exercised, respectively, within 12-months after receiving permitting documents for each Phase, but in no event later than May 2026. Construction began on the DVT Phase I project in December 2022.

 

The Company has committed to spend $10.0 million in capital improvements on the ADS construction project. If this amount is not expended, the Company is subject to a reduction of the term of the lease.

 

The PWK Lease contains a requirement that the Company must commence construction within six months of the issuance of permits and must complete construction within 18 months of construction commencement. If the Company is unable to adhere to the prescribed timeline and unable to receive an extension from PWK, the PWK Lease is subject to termination.

 

The SJC Lease contains customary milestones by which the Company must complete additional construction.

 

The ORL Lease requires that the Company construct $30 million of improvements in its initial phase of construction within 24 months of the effective date of the lease. The ORL Lease contains other customary milestones by which the Company must commence and complete subsequent phases of construction.

 

The SLC Lease requires that the Company make minimum capital improvements of $40 million.

 

The Company has contracts for construction of the APA Phase I, DVT Phase I, and ADS Phase I projects. The Company  may terminate any of the contracts or suspend construction without cause. There are no termination penalties under the construction contracts.

 

In addition to the matters described in this note, the Company is involved is various legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of its business. Although the Company cannot predict with certainty the ultimate resolution of these matters, which involve judgements that are inherently subjective, the Company does not expect that the ultimate disposition of such other contingencies or matters will materially affect its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Subsequent Events

 

Private Placement and Securities Purchase Agreement

 

On October 25, 2024, the Additional Investors each executed a joinder to the 2024 Private Placement Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which the Additional Investors agreed to purchase, and the Company agreed to sell, an aggregate of 603,684 Additional PIPE Shares (together with the Initial PIPE Shares, the “First Closing PIPE Shares”) for an aggregate purchase price of $5.7 million. The Initial Closing of the PIPE Financing occurred on October 25, 2024, and 3,955,790 First Closing PIPE Shares were issued to the Investors for an aggregate purchase price of $37.6 million, on October 25, 2024 (the “Initial Closing Date”).

 

The Investors have the option to purchase up to an aggregate of 3,955,790 Second Closing PIPE Shares for an aggregate purchase price of up to $37.6 million at the Second Closing. Each Investor has the option to purchase in the Second Closing up to a number of Second Closing PIPE Shares equal to the number of such Initial Investor’s Initial PIPE Shares purchased in the Initial Closing, at the same purchase price of $9.50 per share. The amount of Second Closing PIPE Shares, if any, to be issued at the Second Closing will be determined by each Investor in its sole discretion pursuant to each of their allocations, and the Second Closing will occur, if at all, at the sole discretion of the Investors, on or before December 20, 2024 (the “Second Closing Date”), subject to customary closing conditions. To the extent any Investor does not elect to purchase its full allocation of Second Closing PIPE Shares, such Second Closing PIPE Shares (the “Shortfall Shares” and, together with the First Closing PIPE Shares and the Second Closing PIPE Shares, the “PIPE Shares”) may be purchased by other Investors who have elected to purchase their full allocation of Second Closing PIPE Shares (the “Full Option Investors”). Any Shortfall Shares will be divided among the Full Option Investors on a pro rata basis based on the Initial PIPE Shares to be purchased by such Full Option Investors in the Initial Closing. To the extent any Full Option Investor does not elect to purchase its full allocation of Shortfall Shares, such Shortfall Shares may be purchased by Altai Capital Management, L.P. or its affiliates, as it may designate in its sole discretion.

 

On the Initial Closing Date, the Investors entered into a customary lock-up agreement that restricts sales of shares of Class A Common Stock by the Investors for a period of six months beginning on the Initial Closing Date, subject to certain exceptions. 

 

Pursuant to the terms of the 2024 Private Placement Purchase Agreement, on the Initial Closing Date, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “2024 PIPE Registration Rights Agreement”) with the Investors. Pursuant to the 2024 PIPE Registration Rights Agreement, the Investors are entitled to certain customary registration rights, and the Company is required to prepare and file a resale registration statement with the SEC to register the resale of the PIPE Shares and to use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective by the SEC by the earlier of (i) the later of (x) the 180th calendar day following the Initial Closing Date, or on the next succeeding business day if such date falls on a day that is not a business day and (y) the 15th calendar day following the Second Closing Date, if any, or on the next succeeding business day if such date falls on a day that is not a business day, and (ii) the 5th business day after the date the Company is notified (orally or in writing whichever is earlier) by the SEC that such registration statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review; provided, however, that the Company shall have 10 additional business days if required to update for a quarterly filing.

 

POU Ground Lease Extension

 

On November 7, 2024, the Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, executed an amendment to its ground lease agreement at Hudson Valley Regional Airport (“POU”) with the County of Duchess, New York (the “Amended POU Lease”). The Amended POU Lease extended the term of such ground lease from 15 year to 40 years from the completion of construction, with lease payments commencing upon the earlier of completion of construction or December 2025.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and the related notes (the “Financial Statements”) have been prepared in conformity with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) requirements for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, and consequently exclude certain disclosures normally included in audited consolidated financial statements prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).These Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, which includes additional disclosures and a summary of the Company's significant accounting policies. In the Company’s opinion, these Financial Statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring items, considered necessary by management to fairly state the Company’s results of operation, financial position, and cash flows.

 

Certain historical amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation.

 

Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Such estimates include assumptions used within impairment analyses, estimated useful lives of depreciable assets and amortizable costs, estimates of inputs utilized in determining the fair value of financial instruments such as warrants, estimates and assumptions related to right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities, and estimates and assumptions used in the determination of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the business combination. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

 

Risks and Uncertainties [Policy Text Block]

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The Company’s operations have been limited to-date. For most of its history, the Company has been engaged in securing access to land through ground leases and developing and constructing aviation hangars. The major risks faced by the Company is its future ability to obtain additional tenants for the facilities that it constructs, and to contract with such tenants for rental income in an amount that is sufficient to meet the Company’s financial obligations, including increasing construction costs due to inflation and increased borrowing costs to the extent that the Company incurs additional indebtedness.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources [Policy Text Block]

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As a result of ongoing construction projects and business development activities, including the development of aircraft hangars and the leasing of available hangar space, the Company has incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from operating activities since its inception. The Company expects to continue to invest in such activities and generate operating losses in the near future.

 

The Company obtained long-term financing through bond and equity offerings to fund its construction, lease, and operational commitments, and believes its liquidity is sufficient to allow continued operations for more than one year after the date these financial statements are issued.

 

Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Basis of Consolidation

 

SHG is deemed to have a controlling interest of Sky through its appointment as the Managing Member of Sky, in which SHG has control over the affairs and decision-making of Sky. The interests in Sky not owned by the Company are presented as non-controlling interests. Sky’s ownership percentage in each of its consolidated subsidiaries is 100%, unless otherwise disclosed.

 

Cost of Construction [Policy Text Block]

Cost of Construction

 

Cost of construction on the consolidated balance sheets is carried at cost. The cost of acquiring an asset includes the costs necessary to bring a capital project to the condition necessary for its intended use. Costs are capitalized once the construction of a specific capital project is probable. Construction labor and other direct costs of construction are capitalized. Professional fees for engineering, procurement, consulting, and other soft costs that are directly identifiable with the project and are considered an incremental direct cost are capitalized. Activities associated with internally manufactured hangar buildings, including materials, direct manufacturing labor, and manufacturing overhead directly identifiable with such activities are allocated to our construction projects and capitalized. The Company allocates a portion of its internal salaries to both capitalized cost of construction and to general and administrative expense based on the percentage of time certain employees worked in the related areas. Interest, net of the amortization of debt issuance costs and premiums, and net of interest income earned on bond proceeds, is also capitalized until the capital project is completed.

 

Once a capital project is complete, the Company begins to depreciate the constructed asset on a straight-line basis over the lesser of the life of the asset or the remaining term of the related ground lease, including expected renewal terms. 

 

Lessee, Leases [Policy Text Block]

Leases

 

The Company accounts for leases under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842, Leases. The Company determines whether a contract contains a lease at the inception of the contract. ASC Topic 842 requires lessees to recognize lease liabilities and right-of-use (“ROU”) assets for all operating leases with terms of more than 12 months on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company has made an accounting policy election to not recognize leases with an initial term of 12 months or less on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and will result in recognizing those lease payments in the consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the lease term. When management determines that it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise its options to renew the leases, the renewal terms are included in the lease term and the resulting ROU asset and lease liability balances.

 

The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components; the Company has elected the accounting policy to not separate lease and non-lease components for all underlying asset classes. The Company has not elected to capitalize any interest cost that is implicit within its operating leases into cost of construction on the consolidated balance sheet, but instead, expenses its ground lease cost as a component of operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.

 

Derivatives, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Warrants liability

 

The Company accounts for its Warrants (as defined in Note 10 — Warrants) in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”), under which warrants that do not meet the criteria for equity classification and must be recorded as derivative liabilities. Accordingly, the Company classifies the Warrants as liabilities carried at their fair value and adjusts the warrants to fair value at each reporting period. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until the warrants are exercised or expire, and any change in fair value is recognized in the consolidated statement of operations.

 

Revenue [Policy Text Block]

Revenue recognition

 

The Company leases the hangar facilities that it constructs to third parties. The lease agreements are either on a month-to-month basis or have a defined term and may have options to extend the term. Some of the leases contain options to terminate the lease by either party with given notice. There are no options given to the lessee to purchase the underlying assets. Rental revenue is recognized in accordance with ASC Topic 842, Leases (see Note 8 — Leases) and includes fixed payments of cash rents, which represents revenue each tenant pays in accordance with the terms of its respective lease and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Rental revenue and the corresponding rent and other receivables are recorded net of any concessions and uncollectible tenant receivables for all periods presented. The Company evaluates the collectability of tenant receivables for payments required under the lease agreements. If the Company determines that collectability is not probable, the Company recognizes any difference between revenue amounts recognized to date under ASC 842 and payments that have been collected from the lessee, including any additional rent or lease termination fees, as a current period adjustment to rental revenue.

 

Variable lease payments consist of tenant reimbursements for common area maintenance, utilities, and operating expenses of the property, and various other fees, including fees associated with the delivery of aircraft fuel, late fees, and lease termination fees. Variable lease payments are charged based on the terms and conditions included in the respective tenant leases and are recognized in the same period as the expenses are incurred. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, rental revenue includes $817 and $1,870 of variable lease payments, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, rental revenue includes $920 and $1,224 of variable lease payments, respectively.

 

As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the deferred rent receivable included in prepaid expenses and other assets was $501 and $367, respectively. Rent received in advance represents tenant payments received prior to the contractual due date, and is included in accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other liabilities. Rent received in advance consisted of $297 and $241 as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

 

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 the Company did not derive 10% of its revenue from any single tenant. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 the Company derived approximately 46% and 38% of its revenue from two tenants, respectively.

 

Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Income Taxes

 

SHG is classified as a corporation for Federal income tax purposes and is subject to U.S. Federal and state income taxes. SHG includes in income, for U.S. Federal income tax purposes, its allocable portion of income from the “pass-through” entities in which it holds an interest, including Sky. The “pass-through” entities, are not subject to U.S. Federal and certain state income taxes at the entity level, and instead, the tax liabilities with respect to taxable income are passed through to the members, including SHG. As a result, prior to the Yellowstone Transaction, Sky was not subject to U.S. Federal and certain state income taxes at the entity level.

 

The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. This method gives consideration to the future tax consequences associated with the differences between the financial accounting and tax basis of the assets and liabilities as well as the ultimate realization of any deferred tax asset resulting from such differences, as well as from net operating losses and other tax-basis carryforwards. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized. When a valuation allowance is increased or decreased, a corresponding tax expense or benefit is recorded.

 

The Company recorded income tax expense of $0 and the effective tax rate was 0.0% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. The effective income tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 differs from the federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to a full valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets as it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized due to the cumulative losses sustained by the Company to date.
