NEWS RELEASE

Global Crossing Airlines, the Nation’s Fastest Growing Charter Airline, Achieves Record Annual Revenues

March 6 2024

MIAMI, FL (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Global Crossing Airlines Group, Inc. (JET: Cboe CA; JET.B: Cboe CA; JETMF: OTCQB) (the “Company” or “GlobalX”) today reported fourth quarter and 2023 annual financial results, which saw record revenue for Q4 of $53.5M and $160M for the year. All figures are in United States dollars and prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Annual 2023 Highlights and Financial Results

• Annual Revenues of $160.1 Million

• EBITDAR⁽¹⁾ of $20 Million, a fourfold increase over 2022

• Block Hours flown more than doubled

• Aircraft Utilization jumps 26.3%

• Pilot count more than doubles

• Fleet size grows to 14 aircraft

“As we reflect on a year marked by unprecedented growth, we remain steadfast in our commitment to charting a course towards sustained profitability and operational excellence. With a relentless focus on industry-leading on-time performance, we are expecting demand for passenger charters to soar in 2024. Looking ahead, we are strategically sourcing aircraft to bolster our capacity and optimize revenue-earning opportunities over the next two quarters,” said Chris Jamroz, Executive Chairman of GlobalX.

GlobalX operated 18,072 block hours in 2023 more than doubling the 8,666 block hours operated in 2022. Annual Net Income was ($21) million, EBITDAR⁽¹⁾ on an unadjusted basis was $20 million and EPS was $(0.37).

“The increase in revenue and total block hours flown was attributed to several factors”, added Ryan Goepel, GlobalX President and CFO. “The Company’s average fleet increased from 7 in 2022 to 11 in 2023 increasing its capacity while strong passenger demand drove not only increased activity but higher rates for charter contracts. Continued focus on efficiency and benefits of a larger scale operation enabled a 15% improvement in operating performance. Going forward, the Company continues to grow its revenue faster than its cost structure, as the airline works toward achieving scale and sustained profitability.”

During Q4 the Company continued to invest in growing the cadre of pilots, having invested approximately $7 million in training and adequate staffing in anticipation of new aircraft deliveries in the first half of 2024.

Liquidity

GlobalX ended the year with $17.7M in cash and restricted cash which is up 31% as compared to December 31, 2022. The Company has also reached an agreement with GEM to extend the existing facility agreement for another twelve months.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company evaluates its financial performance utilizing various accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted operating expenses, adjusted operating income (loss), Adjusted operating margin, adjusted pre-tax income (loss), Adjusted pre-tax margin, Adjusted net income (loss), Adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDAR. These non-GAAP financial measures are provided as supplemental information to the financial information presented in this press release that is calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP and these non-GAAP financial measures are presented because management believes that they supplement or enhance management’s, analysts’ and investors’ overall understanding of the Company’s underlying financial performance and trends and facilitate comparisons among current, past and future periods.

Because the non-GAAP financial measures are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, they should not be considered superior to and are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP financial measures presented in the press release and may not be the same as or comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies due to possible differences in the method of calculation and in the items being adjusted. We encourage investors to review our financial statements and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.

The information below provides an explanation of certain adjustments reflected in the non-GAAP financial measures and shows a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures reported in this press release (other than forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures) to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. Within the financial tables presented, certain columns and rows may not add due to the use of rounded numbers. Per unit amounts presented are calculated from the underlying amounts.

EBITDAR which is defined Operating income (loss), plus depreciation, amortization, interest, taxes and aircraft rent is an important metric to be considered to allow investors to compare results across different airlines regardless of how the airlines acquired their aircraft. This distinction is important when comparing the operational results of an airline leasing its aircraft versus an airline purchasing its aircraft. Specifically, the airline leasing aircraft would see the costs relating to those aircraft flow through aircraft rent, while an airline that owns their aircraft would see their costs for those aircraft flow through depreciation and amortization. In order to compare the operating results of the two airlines an investor needs to look at EBITDAR which is why it is presented.
