2. Revenue Recognition
Substantially all of the Company’s non-lease revenue is derived from contracts with an initial expected duration of one year or less. As a result, the Company has applied the practical expedient to exclude consideration of significant financing components from the determination of transaction price, to expense costs incurred to obtain a contract, and to not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations.
The following is a description of the Company’s performance obligations:
| | | | | |
Type of Revenue | Nature, Timing of Satisfaction of Performance Obligations, and Significant Payment Terms |
Product Sales | The Company generates revenue from sales of various distinct products such as parts, aircraft equipment, jet engines, airframes, and scrap metal to its customers. A performance obligation is created when the Company accepts an order from a customer to provide a specified product. Each product ordered by a customer represents a performance obligation.
The Company recognizes revenue when obligations under the terms of the contract are satisfied; generally, this occurs at a point-in-time upon shipment or when control is transferred to the customer. Transaction prices are based on contracted terms, which are at fixed amounts based on standalone selling prices. While the majority of the Company's contracts do not have variable consideration, for the limited number of contracts that do, the Company records revenue based on the standalone selling price less an estimate of variable consideration (such as rebates, discounts or prompt payment discounts). The Company estimates these amounts based on the expected incentive amount to be provided to customers and reduces revenue accordingly. Performance obligations are short-term in nature and customers are typically billed upon transfer of control. The Company records all shipping and handling fees billed to customers as revenue.
The terms and conditions of the customer purchase orders or contracts are dictated by either the Company’s standard terms and conditions or by a master service agreement or by the contract. |
Support Services | The Company provides a variety of support services such as aircraft maintenance and short-term repair services to its customers. Additionally, the Company operates certain aircraft routes on behalf of FedEx. A performance obligation is created when the Company agrees to provide a particular service to a customer. For each service, the Company recognizes revenues over time as the customer simultaneously receives the benefits provided by the Company's performance. This revenue recognition can vary from when the Company has a right to invoice to the output or input method depending on the structure of the contract and management’s analysis.
For repair-type services, the Company records revenue over-time based on an input method of costs incurred to total estimated costs. The Company believes this is appropriate as the Company is performing labor hours and installing parts to enhance an asset that the customer controls. The vast majority of repair-services are short term in nature and are typically billed upon completion of the service.
Some of the Company’s contracts contain a promise to stand ready as the Company is obligated to perform certain maintenance or administrative services. For most of these contracts, the Company applies the 'as invoiced' practical expedient as the Company has a right to consideration from the customer in an amount that corresponds directly with the value of the entity's performance completed to date. A small number of contracts are accounted for as a series and recognized equal to the amount of consideration the Company is entitled to less an estimate of variable consideration (typically rebates). These services are typically ongoing and are generally billed on a monthly basis. |
In addition to the above type of revenues, the Company also has Leasing Revenue, which is in scope under Topic 842 (Leases) and out of scope under Topic 606 and Other Revenues (Freight, Management Fees, etc.) which are immaterial for disclosure under Topic 606.
The following table summarizes disaggregated revenues by type (in thousands):

4. Income Taxes
During the three-month period ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded $71.0 thousand in income tax expense at an effective tax rate ("ETR") of 68.9%. The Company has computed the provision for income taxes based on the estimated annual effective tax rate excluding loss jurisdictions with no tax benefit and the application of discrete items, if any, for interim reporting. The primary factors contributing to the difference between the federal statutory rate of 21.0% and the Company's effective tax rate for the three-month period ended June 30, 2024 were the valuation allowance related to the Company's U.S. consolidated group, Delphax Technologies, Inc. (“DTI”), Landing Gear Support Services PTE LTD (“LGSS”), Delphax Solutions, Inc. (“DSI”) and BCCM Advisors (Kenya) Limited (“BCCM Kenya”), and the foreign rate differentials for Air T’s operations located in the Netherlands and Puerto Rico.
During the three-month period ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded $0.2 million in income tax expense at an ETR of 114.7%. The primary factors contributing to the difference between the federal statutory rate of 21.0% and the Company's effective tax rate for the three-month period ended June 30, 2023 were the change in valuation allowance related to the Company’s U.S. consolidated group, DTI, LGSS, DSI, the estimated benefit for the exclusion of income for the Company's captive insurance company subsidiary ("SAIC") under Section 831(b), the exclusion from the tax provision of the minority owned portion of the pretax income of Contrail, and the foreign rate differentials for Air T’s operations located in the Netherlands, Puerto Rico, and Singapore.
5. Net Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share has been calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to Air T, Inc. stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. For purposes of calculating diluted earnings (loss) per share, shares issuable under stock options were considered potential common shares and were included in the weighted average common shares unless they were anti-dilutive.
The computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share is as follows (in thousands, except for per share figures):

7. Investments in Securities and Derivative Instruments
As part of the Company’s interest rate risk management strategy, the Company, from time to time, uses derivative instruments to minimize significant unanticipated earnings fluctuations that may arise from rising variable interest rate costs associated with existing borrowings (Air T Term Note A and Term Note D). To meet these objectives, the Company entered into interest rate swaps with notional amounts consistent with the outstanding debt to provide a fixed rate of 4.56% and 5.09%, respectively, on Term Notes A and D. The swaps mature in January 2028.
On August 31, 2021, Air T and Minnesota Bank & Trust ("MBT") refinanced Term Note A and fixed its interest rate at 3.42%. As a result of this refinancing, the Company determined that the interest rate swap on Term Note A was no longer an effective hedge. The Company will amortize the fair value of the interest-rate swap contract included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) associated with Term Note A at the time of de-designation into earnings over the remainder of its term. In addition, any changes in the fair value of Term Note A's swap after August 31, 2021 are recognized directly into earnings. The remaining swap contract associated with Term Note D is designated as an effective cash flow hedging instrument in accordance with ASC 815.
On January 7, 2022, Contrail completed an interest rate swap transaction with Old National Bank ("ONB") with respect to the $43.6 million loan made to Contrail in November 2020 pursuant to the Main Street Priority Loan Facility as established by the U.S. Federal Reserve ("Contrail - Term Note G"). The purpose of the floating-to-fixed interest rate swap transaction was to effectively fix the loan interest rate at 4.68%. As of February 24, 2022, this swap contract has been designated as a cash flow hedging instrument and qualified as an effective hedge in accordance with ASC 815. During the period between January 7, 2022 and February 24, 2022, the Company recorded a loss of approximately $0.1 million in the consolidated statement of income (loss) due to the changes in the fair value of the instrument prior to the designation and qualification of this instrument as an effective hedge. After it was deemed an effective hedge, the Company recorded changes in the fair value of the instrument in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income (loss). On March 30, 2023, Contrail made a prepayment of $6.7 million on Contrail - Term Note G. As a result of this prepayment, the Company determined that the interest rate swap on Contrail - Term Note G was no longer an effective hedge. The Company will amortize the fair value of the interest-rate swap contract included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) associated with Contrail - Term Note G at the time of de-designation into earnings over the remainder of its term. In addition, any changes in the fair value of Contrail - Term Note G's swap after March 30, 2023 are recognized directly into earnings.
For the swap related to Air T Term Note D, the effective portion of changes in the fair value on this instrument is recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and is reclassified into the consolidated statement of income (loss) as interest expense in the same period in which the underlying hedged transactions affect earnings. The changes in the fair value of the instruments during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were not material. The interest rate swaps are considered Level 2 fair value measurements. As of June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, the fair value of these interest-rate swap contracts was an asset of $1.7 million and $1.9 million, respectively, which is included within other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. We estimate that $0.8 million of net unrealized gains related to the interest rate swaps included in accumulated other comprehensive loss will be reclassified into earnings within the next twelve months.
The Company also invests in exchange-traded marketable securities and accounts for that activity in accordance with ASC 321, Investments- Equity Securities. Marketable equity securities are carried at fair value, with changes in fair market value included in the determination of net income. The fair market value of marketable equity securities is determined based on quoted market prices in active markets and are therefore, considered Level 1 fair value measurements. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company had a gross unrealized gain in the fair value of marketable equity securities aggregating to $0.2 million and a gross unrealized loss aggregating to $0.3 million. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company had a gross unrealized gain in the fair value of marketable securities aggregating to $0.5 million and a gross unrealized loss aggregating to $0.7 million. These unrealized gains and losses are included in other income (loss) on the condensed consolidated statement of income (loss). As of June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, the fair value of these marketable equity securities was an asset of $1.6 million and $1.9 million, respectively, which is included within restricted investments and other current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
8. Equity Method Investments
The Company’s investment in Lendway, Inc. - NASDAQ: LDWY ("Lendway"), formerly Insignia Systems, Inc. ("Insignia"), is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The Company elected a three-month lag upon adoption of the equity method. On August 2, 2023, Insignia reincorporated in the state of Delaware as Lendway, Inc. Subsequent to reincorporation, Lendway sold its legacy business on August 4, 2023 and pivoted the business towards specialty agricultural finance. On February 26, 2024, Lendway acquired Bloomia B.V. ("Bloomia"), marking its first investment in specialty agriculture and underscoring its strategy of targeting high-quality agricultural assets and enterprises. As of June 30, 2024, the Company owned 0.5 million Lendway shares, representing approximately 27.9% of Lendway's outstanding shares.
The Company's 20.1% investment in Cadillac Casting, Inc. ("CCI") is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Due to the differing fiscal year-ends, the Company has elected a three-month lag to record the CCI investment, with a basis difference decrease of $0.3 million. The Company recorded a basis difference adjustment of $12.0 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2024.
CCI and Lendway's combined summarized unaudited financial information for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 is as follows (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| March 31, 2024 | | March 31, 2023 |
Revenue | $ | 45,757 | | | $ | 51,157 | |
Gross Profit | 6,006 | | | 7,803 | |
Operating income | 1,206 | | | 5,261 | |
Net income | $ | 1,102 | | | $ | 5,116 | |
On May 5, 2021, the Company formed an aircraft asset management business called Contrail Asset Management, LLC ("CAM"), and an aircraft capital joint venture called Contrail JV II LLC ("CJVII"). The venture focuses on acquiring commercial aircraft and jet engines for leasing, trading and disassembly. The joint venture, CJVII, was formed as a series LLC ("CJVII Series"). It consists of several individual series that target investments in current generation narrow-body aircraft and engines, building on Contrail’s origination and asset management expertise. CAM was formed to serve two separate and distinct functions: 1) to direct the sourcing, acquisition and management of aircraft assets owned by CJVII Series as governed by the Management Agreement between CJVII and CAM (“Asset Management Function”), and 2) to directly invest into CJVII Series alongside other institutional investment partners (“Investment Function”).
CAM has two classes of equity interests: 1) common interests and 2) investor interests. Neither interest votes as the entity is operated by a Board of Directors. The common interests of CAM relate to its Asset Management Function. The investor interests of CAM relate to the Company’s and Mill Road Capital’s (“MRC”) investments through CAM into CJVII (the Investment Function) and ultimately into the individual CJVII Series. With regard to CAM’s common interests, the Company currently owns 90% of the economic common interests in CAM, and MRC owns the remaining 10%. MRC invested $1.0 million directly into CAM in exchange for 10% of the common interests. For the Asset Management Function, CAM receives origination fees, management fees, consignment fees (where applicable) and a carried interest from the direct investors into each CJVII Series. Such fee income and carried interest will be distributed to the Company and MRC in proportion to their respective common interests.
The Company determined that CAM is a variable interest entity and that the Company is not the primary beneficiary. This is primarily the result of the Company's conclusion that it does not control CAM’s Board of Directors, which has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of CAM. Accordingly, the Company does not consolidate CAM and has determined to account for this investment using equity method accounting. The Company accounts for its investment in CAM using the hypothetical liquidation at book value ("HLBV") method without a reporting lag. The HLBV method uses a balance sheet approach to capture changes in the Company's claim on CAM's net assets from a period-end hypothetical liquidation at book value. This approach provides a more accurate reflection of the Company's investment in CAM, compared to recording its proportionate share of income or loss.
CAM's summarized unaudited financial information, including both common interests and investor interests, for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 is as follows (in thousands):

10. Leases
The Company has operating leases for the use of real estate, machinery, and office equipment. The majority of our leases have a term of 2 to 5 years; however, we have certain leases with longer terms of up to 30 years. Many of our leases include options to extend the lease for an additional period.
The lease term for all of the Company’s leases includes the non-cancellable period of the lease, plus any additional periods covered by either a Company option to extend the lease that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise, or an option to extend the lease controlled by the lessor that is considered likely to be exercised.
Payments due under the lease contracts include fixed payments plus, for some of our leases, variable payments. Variable payments are typically operating costs associated with the underlying asset and are recognized when the event, activity, or circumstance in the lease agreement on which those payments are assessed occurs. Our leases do not contain residual value guarantees.
The Company has elected to combine lease and non-lease components as a single component and not to recognize leases on the balance sheet with an initial term of one year or less.
The interest rate implicit in lease contracts is typically not readily determinable, and as such the Company utilizes the incremental borrowing rate to calculate lease liabilities, which is the rate incurred to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment.
The components of lease cost for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 are as follows (in thousands):

11. Financing Arrangements
Borrowings of the Company and its subsidiaries are summarized below at June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively.
On May 30, 2024, Contrail, a majority-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a Membership Interest Redemption and Earnout Agreement (the “Redemption Agreement”) with OCAS, Inc., a corporation owned by the Chief Executive Officer of Contrail, Joe Kuhn (the “Seller”). Pursuant to the Redemption Agreement, Contrail agreed to purchase and redeem from the Seller, 16% of its 21% interest in Contrail, effective as of April 1, 2024. The purchase price for the redeemed interest is $4.6 million, plus an earnout amount. The cash purchase price is payable pursuant to a secured, subordinated promissory note ("OCAS Loan"), payable beginning on May 1, 2024 and monthly thereafter for a 12-month period of interest payments only with the outstanding balance amortized and paid over the following 3 years. Interest accrues on the principal amount at an annual rate equal to the 10-year Treasury bond yield plus 375 basis points, compounded monthly. The rate adjusts on each anniversary date of the note. The payment obligation under the note may be deferred if Contrail’s forecast indicates that any payment following the first 12-month period would cause a loan default or a loan default exists. Initially, the payment obligation would revert back to interest only, unless a default exists, in which case no payment would be required. If Contrail is unable to make a payment for 12 months, then interest shall cease to accrue. The note is expressly subordinated to the payment in full of all indebtedness of Contrail on or prior to the date of the note or thereafter created. The OCAS Loan is classified as related party debt on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet. As a result, it is excluded from the tables of current financing arrangements and contractual financing obligations below.
The revolving line of credit at Air T with MBT ("Revolver - MBT") has $4.4 million outstanding as of June 30, 2024 and matures on August 31, 2024. We are currently seeking to refinance the Revolver - MBT prior to its maturity date; however, there is no assurance that we will be able to execute this refinancing or, if we are able to refinance this obligation, that the terms of such refinancing would be as favorable as the terms of our existing credit facility.

12. Shares Repurchased
On May 14, 2014, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had authorized a program to repurchase up to 750,000 (retrospectively adjusted to 1,125,000 after the stock split on June 10, 2019) shares of the Company’s common stock from time to time on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, in compliance with SEC Rule 10b-18, over an indefinite period. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company repurchased 13,348 shares at an aggregate cost of $0.3 million. All of these repurchased shares were recorded as treasury shares as of June 30, 2024.
On August 16, 2022, President Biden signed the Inflation Reduction Act ("IRA") into law. The IRA enacted a 15% corporate minimum tax rate, a 1% excise tax on share repurchases made after December 31, 2022 (subject to certain thresholds being met), and created and extended certain tax-related energy incentives.
As a result of the IRA's enactment into law, the Company is now subject to a 1% excise tax on share repurchases, effective for share repurchases made after December 31, 2022. This excise tax may be reduced for the value of certain share issuances. The excise tax incurred in connection with the Company's stock repurchases during the three months ended June 30, 2024 was not material.

15. Commitments and Contingencies
Put/Call Options and Earnout
Contrail entered into an Operating Agreement (the “Contrail Operating Agreement”) in connection with the acquisition of Contrail providing for the governance of and the terms of membership interests in Contrail and including put and call options with the Seller to require Contrail to purchase all of the Seller’s equity membership interests in Contrail commencing on the fifth anniversary of the acquisition, which occurred on July 18, 2021. On May 30, 2024, Contrail entered into a Membership Interest Redemption and Earnout Agreement (the "Redemption Agreement") with the Seller. Pursuant to the Redemption Agreement, Contrail agreed to purchase and redeem from the Seller, 16% of its 21% interest in Contrail, with the earnout period being retroactive to April 1, 2024. The purchase price for the redeemed interest is $4.6 million in the form of a secured, subordinated promissory note, plus an earnout amount valued at $1.1 million. Under the Redemption Agreement, the Seller is entitled to an annual earnout payment equal to 9.14% of Contrail's adjusted EBITDA over $7.0 million in each fiscal year beginning on March 31, 2025 and continuing through March 31, 2029. Pursuant to the Redemption Agreement, Contrail is required to calculate the earnout payments annually within 30 days following the completion of the annual audits of the Company and Contrail and payment of any amount due is required following satisfaction of a procedure to address any objections to the calculated amount. The earnout pursuant to the Redemption Agreement is a Level 3 fair value measurement that is valued at $1.1 million as of June 30, 2024 with a decrease in value from the effective date of April 1, 2024 in the amount of $20.0 thousand included as part of other non-operating income in the condensed consolidated statements of income (loss).
In connection with the Redemption Agreement, the parties agreed to certain technical amendments to the First Amended and Restated Operating Agreement of Contrail and entered into a new Put and Call Agreement with respect to the remaining 5% interest in Contrail held by the Seller. Pursuant to the new Put and Call Agreement, commencing April 1, 2026 and at any time thereafter, either Contrail or the Seller has the option to elect by written notice to purchase or sell all of the remaining 5% interest in Contrail held by the Seller. The purchase price for the 5% interest is equal to 5% of the Contrail Equity Value, which is defined as an amount equal to nine times the average Adjusted EBITDA of Contrail's most recent three completed fiscal years at the time an option notice is delivered. The purchase price for the 5% interest is to be paid in equal quarterly installments over a three-year period, together with interest at the then current ten-year Treasury bond yield plus 2.5% adjusted annually. The Company has presented this redeemable non-controlling interest in Contrail ("Contrail RNCI") between the liabilities and equity sections of the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. In addition, the Company has elected to recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the greater of fair value on the date of the agreement, adjusted for allocable income and loss, or the redemption value at the end of each reporting period.
In February 2022, in connection with the Company's acquisition of GdW, a consolidated subsidiary of Shanwick, the Company entered into a shareholder agreement with the 30.0% non-controlling interest owners of Shanwick, providing for the governance of and the terms of membership interests in Shanwick. The shareholder agreement includes the Shanwick Put/Call Option with regard to the 30.0% non-controlling interest. The non-controlling interest holders are the executive management of the underlying business. The Shanwick Put/Call Option grants the Company an option to purchase the 30.0% interest at the call option price that equals to the average EBIT over the 3 Financial Years prior to the exercise of the Call Option multiplied by 8. In addition, the Shanwick Put/Call Option also grants the non-controlling interest owners an option to require the Company to purchase from them their respective ownership interests at the Put Option price, that is equal to the average EBIT over the 3 Financial Years prior to the exercise of the Put Option multiplied by 7.5. The Call Option and the Put Option may be exercised at any time from the fifth anniversary of the shareholder agreement and then only at the end of each fiscal year of Air T ("Shanwick RNCI").
The Company has presented the Shanwick RNCI between the liabilities and equity sections of the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. In addition, the Company has elected to recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the estimated redemption value at the end of each reporting period. As the Shanwick RNCI will be redeemed at established multiples of EBIT, it is considered redeemable at other than fair value. Changes in its estimated redemption value are recorded on our consolidated statements of operations within non-controlling interests.
The Shanwick RNCI and Contrail RNCI's estimated redemption values as of June 30, 2024 were comprised of the following (in thousands):

Contrail Asset Management, LLC and CJVII, LLC
For CAM's Investment Function, as described in Note 8, CAM's initial commitment to CJVII was approximately $51.0 million. The Company and MRC have commitments to CAM in the respective amounts of $7.0 million and $44.0 million. These represent the investor interests of CAM, separate and distinct from the common interests. Any investment returns on CAM’s investor interests are shared pro-rata between the Company and MRC for each individual investment at the CJVII Series. Per its Operating Agreement, CAM is comprised of only two Series: the Onshore and the Offshore Series. Participation in each is determined solely based on whether a potential investment at the CJVII Series is a domestic (Onshore) or international (Offshore) investment. As of June 30, 2024, for its Investment Function, the Company has contributed $10.6 million to CAM’s Offshore Series and $1.0 million to CAM’s Onshore Series. The Company fulfilled its Investment Function initial commitment to CAM in fiscal year 2023. In connection with the formation of CAM, MRC has a fixed price put option of $1.0 million to sell its common equity in CAM to the Company at each of the first three (3) anniversary dates. At the later of (a) five (5) years after execution of the agreement and (b) distributions to MRC per the waterfall equal to their capital contributions, Air T has a call option and MRC has a put option on the MRC common interests in CAM ("secondary put and call option"). If either party exercises the option, the exercise price will be fair market value if Air T pays in cash at closing or 112.5% of fair market value if Air T opts to pay in three (3) equal annual installments after exercise. With respect to the secondary put and call option, as it is priced at fair value, the Company determined that there is no potential loss or gain upon exercise that would need to be recognized.
2020 Omnibus Stock and Incentive Plan
On December 29, 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors unanimously approved the Omnibus Stock and Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), which was subsequently approved by the Company's stockholders at the August 18, 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The total number of shares authorized under the Plan is 420,000. Through June 30, 2024, options to purchase up to 326,000 shares have been granted under the Plan. The options vest annually over a period of ten years based on a specified service condition ("vested awards") and expire ten years after vesting. However, the ability to exercise vested awards, occurring at the conclusion of each annual vesting period, is contingent upon the Company's stock price meeting predetermined milestones outlined in the options agreements (the "market condition"). If the market condition is not fulfilled at the annual vesting period on June 30 of every year, the vested awards may not be exercisable at any subsequent point. On the preceding two vesting dates, June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, a total of 97,000 shares satisfied the service condition; however, they did not meet the market condition to become exercisable. On April 30, 2024, 2,000 vested shares that did not meet the market condition and 8,000 unvested shares were forfeited due to employee termination. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, total compensation cost recognized under the Plan was $42.0 thousand. As of June 30, 2024, options to purchase up to 221,000 shares are outstanding under the Plan. No options were exercisable as of June 30, 2024.
16. Guarantees
Nonfinancial Guarantees
From time to time, we may issue guarantees or indemnifications to third parties assuring performance of lease agreements pertaining to aircraft assets owned by certain CJVII Series ("nonfinancial guarantees"). Air T's performance under these guarantees would be triggered by failure of the series to perform in accordance with the terms stated in the lease agreements.
Nonfinancial guarantees and indemnifications are recorded at fair value at their inception. We regularly review our performance risk under these arrangements, and in the event it becomes probable that we will be required to perform under a guarantee or indemnity, the amount of probable payment will be recorded.
The maximum potential payments for nonfinancial guarantees were $5.1 million and $10.1 million at June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively. The reduction in the maximum potential payments required for nonfinancial guarantees this quarter, compared to March 31, 2024, stems from a strategic decision to sell the aircraft instead of maintaining it on lease, thereby mitigating future payment obligations for the underlying asset. The carrying value of recorded liabilities related to nonfinancial guarantees was $0 at both June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024.
17. Subsequent Events

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This section entitled "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" (“MD&A”) is intended to provide a reader of our financial statements with a narrative from the perspective of management on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, and certain other factors that may affect our future results. The MD&A provides a narrative analysis explaining the reasons for material changes in the Company’s (i) financial condition during the period from the most recent fiscal year-end, March 31, 2024, to and including June 30, 2024 and (ii) results of operations during the current fiscal period(s) as compared to the corresponding period(s) of the preceding fiscal year.
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the MD&A, contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “project,” “should,” "will," "continue" and similar expressions are intended to identify “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

Any or all of our forward-looking statements in this report and in any public statements we make could be materially different from actual results. Accordingly, we wish to caution investors that any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of us are subject to uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from such statements, because of, among other things, potential risks and uncertainties, such as:
•An inability to finance our operations through bank or other financing or through the sale of issuance of debt or equity securities;
•Economic and industry conditions in the Company’s markets;
•The risk that contracts with FedEx could be terminated or adversely modified;
•The risk that the number of aircraft operated for FedEx will be reduced;
•The risk that GGS customers will defer or reduce significant orders for deicing equipment;
•The impact of any terrorist activities on United States soil or abroad;
•The Company’s ability to manage its cost structure for operating expenses, or unanticipated capital requirements, and match them to shifting customer service requirements and production volume levels;
•The Company's ability to meet debt service covenants and to refinance existing debt obligations;
•The risk of injury or other damage arising from accidents involving the Company’s overnight air cargo operations, equipment or parts sold and/or services provided;
•Market acceptance of the Company’s commercial and military equipment and services;
•Competition from other providers of similar equipment and services;
•Changes in government regulation and technology;
•Changes in the value of marketable securities held as investments;
•Mild winter weather conditions reducing the demand for deicing equipment;
•Market acceptance and operational success of the Company’s commercial jet engines and parts segment or its aircraft asset management business and related aircraft capital joint venture; and
•Despite our current indebtedness levels, we and our subsidiaries may still be able to incur substantially more debt, which could further exacerbate the risks associated with our substantial leverage.
We also wish to caution investors that other factors might in the future prove to be important in affecting our results of operations. New factors emerge from time to time; it is not possible for management to predict all of such factors, nor can it assess the impact of each such factor on the business or the extent to which any factor, or a combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.
We undertake no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Our MD&A should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes included in Item 1 of Part 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024 (including the information presented therein under Risk Factors), as well other publicly available information.

Results of Operations
First Quarter Fiscal 2025 Compared to First Quarter Fiscal 2024
Consolidated revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2024 decreased by $5.0 million (7.0%) compared to the same quarter in the prior fiscal year.
Following is a table detailing revenue by segment, net of intercompany during the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same quarter in the prior fiscal year (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended June 30, | | Change |
| 2024 | | 2023 | | |
Overnight Air Cargo | $ | 30,383 | | | $ | 27,728 | | | $ | 2,655 | | 9.6 | % |
Ground Equipment Sales | 7,354 | | | 11,787 | | | (4,433) | | (37.6) | % |
Commercial Jet Engines and Parts | 26,250 | | | 29,846 | | | (3,596) | | (12.0) | % |
Corporate and Other | 2,424 | | | 2,070 | | | 354 | | 17.1 | % |
| $ | 66,411 | | | $ | 71,431 | | | $ | (5,020) | | (7.0) | % |
Revenues from the air cargo segment for the three months ended June 30, 2024 increased by $2.7 million (9.6%) compared to the first quarter of the prior fiscal year. The increase was principally attributable to higher administrative fees due to increased fleet of 105 aircraft in the current year quarter compared to 85 aircraft in the prior year quarter, partially offset by lower pass-through revenues from FedEx due to initial provisioning for new aircraft in the prior year that did not recur in the current year quarter.
The ground equipment sales segment contributed approximately $7.4 million and $11.8 million to the Company’s revenues for the three month ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 respectively, representing a $4.4 million (37.6%) decrease in the current fiscal quarter. The decrease was primarily driven by the lower number of deicing trucks sold offset by a slight increase in catering truck sales in the current year quarter compared to the prior year's fiscal comparable quarter. At June 30, 2024, the ground equipment sales segment’s order backlog was $9.9 million compared to $13.7 million at June 30, 2023.
The commercial jet engines and parts segment contributed $26.3 million of revenues in the quarter ended June 30, 2024 compared to $29.8 million in the comparable prior year quarter, which is a decrease of $3.6 million (12.0%). The decrease was primarily driven by lower component part sales at Contrail in the current quarter compared to the prior year comparable quarter.
Revenues from the corporate and other segment for the three months ended June 30, 2024 increased by $0.4 million (17.1%) compared to the first quarter of the prior fiscal year. The increase was primarily attributable to more subscriptions sales at Shanwick.
Following is a table detailing operating income (loss) by segment during the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same quarter in the prior fiscal year (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended June 30, | | Change |
| 2024 | | 2023 | | |
Overnight Air Cargo | $ | 1,839 | | | $ | 1,935 | | | $ | (96) | |
Ground Equipment Sales | (775) | | | (85) | | | (690) | |
Commercial Jet Engines and Parts | 1,095 | | | 1,478 | | | (383) | |
Corporate and Other | (2,736) | | | (2,670) | | | (66) | |
| $ | (577) | | | $ | 658 | | | $ | (1,235) | |
Consolidated operating loss for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 was $0.6 million, compared to an operating income of $0.7 million in the comparable quarter of the prior year.
The air cargo segment's operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was relatively flat compared to the first quarter of the prior fiscal year.
The ground equipment sales segment's operating loss for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 was $0.8 million compared to the prior year comparable quarter's operating loss of $0.1 million. This change was primarily attributable to the decrease in sales noted above.
The commercial jet engines and parts segment generated operating income of $1.1 million in the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2024 compared to operating income of $1.5 million in the prior year comparable quarter. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower sales at Contrail mentioned above partially offset by higher gross profit margins in the current year quarter's sales compared to the prior year's comparable quarter.
