NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1.    Financial Statement Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements of Air T, Inc. (“Air T”, the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”) have been prepared, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the following disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented have been made.

These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2021. The results of operations for the period ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

Formation of new entities

On May 5, 2021, the Company formed a new aircraft asset management business called Contrail Asset Management, LLC (“CAM”), and a new aircraft capital joint venture called Contrail JV II LLC (“CJVII”). The Company and Mill Road Capital (“MRC”) have agreed to become common members in CAM. CAM will serve two separate and distinct functions: 1) to direct the sourcing, acquisition and management of aircraft assets owned by CJVII (“Asset Management Function”), and 2) to directly invest into CJVII alongside other institutional investment partners (“Investment Function”). For the Asset Management Function, CAM will receive origination fees, management fees, consignment fees (where applicable) and a carried interest. For its Investment Function, CAM has an initial commitment to CJVII of approximately $53 million, which is comprised of an $8 million initial commitment from the Company and an approximately $45 million initial commitment from MRC. Any investment returns will be shared pro-rata between the Company and MRC.

COVID-19 Pandemic

COVID-19 and its impact on the current financial, economic and capital markets environment, and future developments in these and other areas present uncertainty and risk with respect to our financial condition and results of operations. Each of our businesses implemented measures to attempt to limit the impact of COVID-19 but we still experienced a substantial number of disruptions, and we experienced and continue to experience a reduction in demand for commercial aircraft, jet engines and parts compared to historical periods. Many of our businesses may continue to generate reduced operating cash flow and may operate at a loss during at least the first half of fiscal 2022. We expect that the impact of COVID-19 will continue to some extent. The fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the ultimate adverse impact of COVID-19 on economic and market conditions and our businesses in particular, and, as a result, present material uncertainty and risk with respect to us and our results of operations.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2020, the FASB updated the Investments—Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)—Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815. The amendments clarify that an entity should consider observable transactions that require it to either apply or discontinue the equity method of accounting for the purposes of applying the measurement alternative in accordance with Topic 321 immediately before applying or upon discontinuing the equity method. The Company adopted this amendment on April 1, 2021. As of June 30, 2021, the amendments did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04- Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. The amendments in this Update provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments in this Update apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The expedients and exceptions provided by the amendments do not apply to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022, except for hedging relationships existing as of December 31, 2022, that an entity has elected certain optional expedients for and that are retained through the end of the hedging relationship. The amendments are effective for all entities from the beginning of an interim period that includes the issuance date of this ASU. An entity may elect to apply the amendments prospectively through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this amendment on our contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform.

In July 2021, the FASB updated the Leases (Topic 842): Lessors—Certain Leases with Variable Lease Payments. The amendments in this Update address stakeholders’ concerns by amending the lease classification requirements for lessors to align them with practice under Topic 840. Lessors should classify and account for a lease with variable lease payments that do not depend on a reference index or a rate as an operating lease if both of the following criteria are met:

1.The lease would have been classified as a sales-type lease or a direct financing lease in accordance with the classification criteria in paragraphs 842-10-25-2 through 25-3.

2.The lessor would have otherwise recognized a day-one loss.

When a lease is classified as operating, the lessor does not recognize a net investment in the lease, does not derecognize the underlying asset, and, therefore, does not recognize a selling profit or loss. The leased asset continues to be subject to the measurement and impairment requirements under other applicable GAAP. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, for all entities, and interim periods within those fiscal years for public business entities. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this amendment on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

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, printing 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, printer 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):

	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2021		2020

4.    Income Taxes

During the three-month period ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded $5.0 thousand in income tax benefit at an effective tax rate ("ETR") of (1.6)%. The Company records income taxes using an estimated annual effective tax rate 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, 2021 were the change in valuation allowance related to the Company's subsidiaries in the corporate and other segment, Delphax Solutions, Inc. and Delphax Technologies, Inc. (collectively known as "Delphax") and other capital losses, the estimated benefit for the exclusion of income for the Company's captive insurance company subsidiary ("SAIC") under Section 831(b), and the exclusion from the tax provision of the minority owned portion of the pretax income of Contrail.

During the three-month period ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded $0.3 million in income tax benefit at an ETR of 23.9%. 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, 2020 were the change in valuation allowance related to Delphax, the estimated benefit for the exclusion of income for SAIC under Section 831(b) and the exclusion from the tax provision of the minority owned portion of the pretax income of Contrail.

5.    Net Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings 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):

	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2021		2020
Net income (loss)	$	327	$	(956)
Net (income) loss attributable to non-controlling interests	(38)		115
Net income (loss) attributable to Air T, Inc. Stockholders	289		(841)
Income (Loss) per share:

6.    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. These swap contracts are designated as effective cash flow hedging instruments in accordance with ASC 815. The effective portion of changes in the fair value on these instruments is recorded in other comprehensive income and is reclassified into the condensed consolidated statement of income (loss) as interest expense in the same period in which the underlying hedged transaction affects earnings. The interest rate swaps are considered Level 2 fair value measurements. As of June 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, the fair value of the interest-rate swap contracts was a liability of $0.6 million, which is included within other non-current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the three months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, the Company recorded a gain of approximately $11.0 thousand and a loss of approximately $26.0 thousand, net of tax, in the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income (loss) for changes in the fair value of the instruments.

The Company may, from time to time, employ trading strategies designed to profit from market anomalies and opportunities it identifies. Management uses derivative financial instruments to execute those strategies, which may include options, and futures contracts. These derivative instruments are priced using publicly quoted market prices and are considered Level 1 fair value measurements. During the three months ended June 30, 2021, related to these derivative instruments, the Company did not record any gain or loss. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, related to these derivative instruments, the Company had a gross gain aggregating to $0.4 million and no gross loss.

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. During the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company had a gross unrealized gain aggregating to $0.4 million and a gross unrealized loss aggregating to $49.0 thousand. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company had a gross unrealized gain aggregating to $0.6 million and a gross unrealized loss aggregating to $0.4 million. These unrealized gains and losses are included in Other Income (Loss) on the condensed consolidated statement of income (loss).

The market value of the Company’s equity securities and cash held by the broker are periodically used as collateral against any outstanding margin account borrowings. As of June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $0 and $2.4 million under its margin account, respectively, which is reflected in accrued expenses and other on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company had cash margin balances related to exchange-traded equity securities and securities sold short of $22.0 thousand and $3.0 million, respectively, which is reflected in other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

7.    Equity Method Investments

The Company’s investment in Insignia Systems, Inc. (“Insignia”) is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The Company has elected a three-month lag upon adoption of the equity method. As of June 30, 2021, the number of Insignia's shares owned by the Company was 0.5 million, representing approximately 28% of the outstanding shares. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021, due to loss attributions and impairments taken in prior fiscal years, the Company's net investment basis in Insignia was reduced to $0. As such, the Company did not record any additional share of Insignia's net loss as of June 30, 2021.

The Company's 18.98% 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 at cost, with a basis difference of $0.3 million. The Company recorded a loss of $0.3 million as its share of CCI's net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2021, along with a basis difference adjustment of $12.0 thousand. The Company's net investment basis in CCI is $3.5 million as of June 30, 2021.

9.     Leases

The Company has operating leases for the use of real estate, machinery, and office equipment. The majority of our leases have a lease 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, 2021 and 2020 are as follows (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2021		2020

10.    Financing Arrangements

The Company’s Credit Agreement with Minnesota Bank & Trust, a Minnesota state banking corporation (“MBT”) includes several covenants that are measured once a year at March 31, including, but not limited to, a financial covenant requiring a debt service coverage ratio of 1.25.

AirCo 1, LLC ("AirCo 1") and Contrail Aviation Support, LLC ("Contrail") are subsidiaries of the Company in the Commercial Jet Engines and Parts segment. The AirCo 1 Credit Agreement contains an affirmative covenant relating to collateral valuation. The Contrail Credit Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that restrict the ability of Contrail and its subsidiaries to, among other things, incur or guarantee indebtedness, incur liens, dispose of assets, engage in mergers and consolidations, make acquisitions or other investments, make changes in the nature of its business, and engage in transactions with affiliates. The Contrail Credit Agreement also contains quarterly financial covenants applicable to Contrail and its subsidiaries, including a minimum debt service coverage ratio of 1.25 to 1.0 and a minimum tangible net worth ("TNW") of $15 million.

On September 25, 2020, Contrail entered into a Third Amendment to Supplement #2 to Master Loan Agreement dated June 24, 2019 with Old National Bank ("ONB"). The material changes within the Third Amendment are: (a) to extend the date for compliance with the provision where Contrail is required to pay down the total outstanding principal balance of its revolver to $0 for at least thirty consecutive days to September 5, 2021; and (b) to extend the date for compliance with the required quarterly debt service coverage ratio covenant such that Contrail shall commence compliance with the covenant commencing on March 31, 2022 and on the last day of each fiscal quarter thereafter.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company, AirCo 1 and Contrail were in compliance with all financial covenants.

The revolving line of credit at Air T with MBT has a due date or expires within the next twelve months. We are currently seeking to refinance this obligation prior to August 31, 2021; 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.

Contrail and ONB are also in discussions to reduce the minimum TNW covenant to $8 million, in exchange for certain amendments to its credit agreement, including renewing its revolving line of credit at a lower amount than the current agreement. However, there is no assurance that Contrail will be successful in reducing the minimum TNW financial covenant.

On April 13, 2020, the Company entered into a loan with MBT in a principal amount of $8.2 million pursuant to the Payroll Protection Program ("PPP Loan"), backed by the Small Business Administration ("SBA"), under the CARES Act. The PPP Loan is evidenced by a promissory note (“Note”). The Note provides for customary events of default including, among other things, cross-defaults on any other loan with MBT. The PPP Loan may be accelerated upon the occurrence of an event of default.

The PPP Loan is unsecured and guaranteed by the United States Small Business Administration ("SBA"). The Company has applied to the SBA for forgiveness of the PPP Loan, with the amount which may be forgiven equal to the sum of payroll costs, covered rent and mortgage obligations, and covered utility payments incurred by the Company during the 24-week period beginning on April 13, 2020, calculated in accordance with the terms of the CARES Act. The PPP Loan bears interest at a fixed annual rate of one percent (1%). Once the forgiveness determination is made, the Company will be required to make repayments plus interest on any unforgiven amount. As of June 30, 2021, the Company has used the funds received from the PPP loan on eligible expenses as outlined in the CARES Act.

The following table provides certain information about the current financing arrangements of the Company's and its subsidiaries as of June 30, 2021:

1 Pursuant to The Paycheck Protection Flexibility Act of 2020, P.L. 116-142, the SBA extended the deferral period for loan payments to either (1) the date that SBA remits the borrower’s loan forgiveness amount to MBT or (2) if Air T does not apply for loan forgiveness, 10 months after the end of Air T’s loan forgiveness covered period, calculated as 24-week period beginning on April 13, 2020. SBA does not require a formal modification to the original promissory note agreement.

On June 10, 2019, the Company completed a transaction with all holders of the Company’s Common Stock to receive a special, pro-rata distribution of three securities as enumerated below:

•A dividend of one additional share for every two shares already held (a 50% stock dividend, or the equivalent of a 3-for-2 stock split).

•The Company issued and distributed to existing common stockholders an aggregate of 1.6 million trust preferred capital security ("TruPs") shares (aggregate $4.0 million stated value) and an aggregate of 8.4 million warrants ("Warrants") (representing warrants to purchase $21.0 million in stated value of TruPs).

On January 14, 2020, Air T effected a one-for-ten reverse split of its TruPs. As a result of the reverse split, the stated value of the TruPs will be $25.00 per share. Further, each Warrant conferred upon its holder the right to purchase one-tenth of a share of TruPs for $2.40, representing a 4% discount to the new stated value of $2.50 for one-tenth of a share. As of June 30, 2021, 4.1 million Warrants have been exercised. At June 30, 2021, the Company had 4.3 million Warrants outstanding and exercisable to purchase shares of its TruPs at an exercise price of $2.40 per one-tenth of a share. On January 11, 2021, the Company announced the extension of the expiration date of the Warrants, previously scheduled to expire on January 15, 2021, to August 30, 2021 or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. On June 23, 2021, the Company announced that it will not extend the expiration date of its Warrants beyond August 30, 2021.

	Fair Value Measurement as of June 30, 2021
Warrant liability (Level 2)	180,000

As of June 30, 2021, the Warrants are recorded within "Other non-current liabilities" on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Fair value measurement was based on market activity and trading volume as observed on the NASDAQ Global Market. The liability is classified as Level 2 in the hierarchy (Level 2 is defined as quoted prices in markets that are not active or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability).

On May 14, 2021, the Company entered into an At the Market Offering Agreement (the “ATM Agreement”) with Ascendiant Capital Markets, LLC (the “sales agent” or “Ascendiant”), pursuant to which it may sell and issue its TruPs having an aggregate offering price of up to $8 million from time to time. The Company has no obligation to sell any TruPs, and may at any time suspend offers under the ATM Agreement or terminate the ATM Agreement. As of June 30, 2021, the Company has sold 184.0 thousand shares of TruPs under the ATM agreement for net proceeds of $4.4 million.

The amount outstanding on the Company's Debt - Trust Preferred Securities is $18.6 million as of June 30, 2021.

13.    Commitments and Contingencies

Contrail Aviation entered into an Operating Agreement (the “Contrail Operating Agreement”) in connection with the acquisition of Contrail Aviation in 1996 providing for the governance of and the terms of membership interests in Contrail Aviation and including put and call options with the Seller of Contrail (“Contrail Put/Call Option”). The Contrail Put/Call Option permits the Seller to require Contrail Aviation to purchase all of the Seller’s equity membership interests in Contrail Aviation commencing on the fifth anniversary of the acquisition, which was on July 18, 2021. The Company has presented this redeemable non-controlling interest in Contrail Aviation ("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 redemption value at the end of each reporting period. The fair value of the redeemable non-controlling interest is $7.0 million as of June 30, 2021. The change in the redemption value compared to March 31, 2021 is an increase of $0.4 million. The increase was driven by $0.3 million of contributions made from the non-controlling interest and $0.2 million of the net change in fair value, partially offset by $0.1 million of net loss attributable to the non-controlling interest during the three months ended June 30, 2021.

As of the date of this filing, neither the Seller nor Air T has indicated the intent to exercise the put and call options. If either side were to exercise the option, the Company anticipates that the price would approximate the fair value of the Contrail RNCI, as determined on the transaction date. The Company currently expects that it would fund any required payment from cash provided by operations.

On May 5, 2021, the Company formed a new aircraft asset management business called CAM, and a new aircraft capital joint venture called CJVII. The new venture will focus on acquiring commercial aircraft and jet engines for leasing, trading and disassembly. CJVII will target investments in current generation narrow-body aircraft and engines, building on Contrail Aviation’s origination and asset management expertise. CAM will serve two separate and distinct functions: 1) to direct the sourcing, acquisition and management of aircraft assets owned by CJVII, and 2) to directly invest into CJVII alongside other institutional investment partners. CAM has an initial commitment to CJVII of approximately $53 million, which is comprised of an $8 million initial commitment from the Company and an approximately $45 million initial commitment from MRC. As of June 30, 2021, CAM's unfunded capital commitments are approximately $6.9 million from the Company and $43.9 million from MRC. The increase in the fair value of the Contrail RNCI is primarily attributable to the value associated with the Contrail Aviation's investment in CJVII.

Item 2.    Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Overview

Air T, Inc. (the “Company,” “Air T,” “we” or “us”) is a holding company with a portfolio of operating businesses and financial assets. Our goal is to prudently and strategically diversify Air T’s earnings power and compound the growth in its free cash flow per share over time.

We currently operate in four industry segments:

•Overnight air cargo, which operates in the air express delivery services industry;

•Ground equipment sales, which manufactures and provides mobile deicers and other specialized equipment products to passenger and cargo airlines, airports, the military and industrial customers;

•Commercial aircraft, engines and parts, which manages and leases aviation assets; supplies surplus and aftermarket commercial jet engine components; provides commercial aircraft disassembly/part-out services; commercial aircraft parts sales; procurement services and overhaul and repair services to airlines and,

•Corporate and other, which acts as the capital allocator and resource for other consolidated businesses. Further, Corporate and other also comprises of insignificant businesses that do not pertain to other reportable segments.

Each business segment has separate management teams and infrastructures that offer different products and services. We evaluate the performance of our business segments based on operating income and Adjusted EBITDA. 

Due to insignificance, the Company combined the previous printing and equipment segment into corporate and other during the quarter ended September 30, 2020. We have presented prior periods based on the current presentation.

Results of Operations

Outlook

COVID-19 and its impact on the current financial, economic and capital markets environment, and future developments in these and other areas present uncertainty and risk with respect to our financial condition and results of operations. Each of our businesses implemented measures to attempt to limit the impact of COVID-19 but we still experienced a substantial number of disruptions, and we experienced and continue to experience a reduction in demand for commercial aircraft, jet engines and parts compared to historical periods. Many of our businesses may continue to generate reduced operating cash flow and may operate at a loss during at least the first half of fiscal 2022. We expect that the impact of COVID-19 will continue to some extent. The fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the ultimate adverse impact of COVID-19 on economic and market conditions and our businesses in particular, and, as a result, present material uncertainty and risk with respect to us and our results of operations.

First Quarter Fiscal 2022 Compared to First Quarter Fiscal 2021

Consolidated revenue for the three-month period ended June 30, 2021 was relatively flat 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, 2021 compared to the same quarter in the prior fiscal year (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Change
	2021		2020
Overnight Air Cargo	$	18,851	$	16,171	$	2,680	17	%
Ground Equipment Sales	8,182		15,828		(7,646)		(48)	%
Commercial Jet Engines and Parts	9,594		4,693		4,901		104	%
Corporate and Other	341		278		63		23	%
	$	36,968	$	36,970	$	(2)	—	%

Revenues from the air cargo segment for the three-month period ended June 30, 2021 increased by $2.7 million (17%) compared to the first quarter of the prior fiscal year. The increase was principally attributable to higher pass-through revenue from FedEx as a result

23

of increased business activity versus the prior year quarter as well as higher maintenance revenue from customers outside of FedEx.

The ground equipment sales segment contributed approximately $8.2 million and $15.8 million to the Company’s revenues for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 respectively, representing a $7.6 million (48%) decrease in the current quarter. The decrease was primarily driven by a lower volume of commercial truck sales and ultimate deicers this quarter compared to prior year comparable quarter. At June 30, 2021, the ground equipment sales segment’s order backlog was $7.1 million compared to $48.7 million at June 30, 2020. GGS had a contract to supply deicing trucks to the United States Air Force ("USAF"), which expired on July 13, 2020. GGS has submitted its bid for contract renewal. As of June 30, 2021, the USAF has not yet responded to the bid.

The commercial jet engines and parts segment contributed $9.6 million of revenues in the quarter ended June 30, 2021 compared to $4.7 million in the comparable prior year quarter which is an increase of $4.9 million (104%). The increase is primarily attributable to the fact that all the companies within this segment had higher component sales as the aviation industry started to see more activity in the current year quarter as COVID-19 related restrictions continued to loosen.

Following is a table detailing operating income (loss) by segment during the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same quarter in the prior fiscal year (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Change
	2021		2020
Overnight Air Cargo	$	732	$	555	$	177
Ground Equipment Sales	1,423		2,216		(793)
Commercial Jet Engines and Parts	(238)		(902)		664
Corporate and Other	(1,921)		(2,135)		214
	$	(4)	$	(266)	$	262

Consolidated operating loss for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 was $4.0 thousand, compared to an operating loss of $0.3 million in the comparable quarter of the prior year.

The ground equipment sales segment operating income for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 decreased by $0.8 million from the prior year comparable quarter to $1.4 million. This decrease was primarily attributable to the decreased sales noted in the segment revenue discussion above.

The commercial jet engines and parts segment generated an operating loss of $0.2 million in the current-year quarter compared to an operating loss of $0.9 million in the prior-year quarter. The change was primarily attributable to the increased component sales at the companies within this segment as explained in the segment revenue discussion above.

Following is a table detailing non-operating income (loss) during the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same quarter in the prior fiscal year (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Change
	2021		2020
Interest expense	(939)		(1,161)		222
Gain (Loss) from equity method investments	83		(558)		641
Other	1,182		729		453
	$	326	$	(990)	$	1,316

The Company had a net non-operating income of $0.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, compared to a net non-operating loss of $1.0 million in the prior-year quarter. In the first quarter 2020, the Company recorded $0.6 million of net loss pick-up from the investments of Insignia and CCI whereas in the current quarter, we only recorded $0.3 million of net loss pick-up from these investments. Further, in the current quarter, the Company recorded $0.2 million of gain from fair value adjustment related to our Warrants, and $0.5 million of gain from the liquidation of Delphax France, a subsidiary of Delphax Technologies, Inc., in June 2021.

During the three-month period ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded $5.0 thousand in income tax benefit at an effective tax rate ("ETR") of (1.6)%. The Company records income taxes using an estimated annual effective tax rate 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, 2021 were the change in valuation allowance related to Delphax and other capital losses, the estimated

24

benefit for the exclusion of income for the Company's captive insurance company subsidiary ("SAIC") under Section 831(b) and the exclusion from the tax provision of the minority owned portion of the pretax income of Contrail.

During the three-month period ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded $0.3 million in income tax benefit at an ETR of 23.9%. 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, 2020 were the change in valuation allowance related to Delphax, the estimated benefit for the exclusion of income for SAIC under Section 831(b) and the exclusion from the tax provision of the minority owned portion of the pretax income of Contrail.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company’s significant accounting policies are fully described in Note 1 to the condensed consolidated financial statements and in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2021. The preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires the use of estimates and assumptions to determine certain assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Management bases these estimates and assumptions upon the best information available at the time of the estimates or assumptions. The Company’s estimates and assumptions could change materially as conditions within and beyond our control change. Accordingly, actual results could differ materially from estimates. There were no significant changes to the Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates during the three-months ended June 30, 2021.

Seasonality

The ground equipment sales segment business has historically been seasonal, with the revenues and operating income typically being lower in the first and fourth fiscal quarters as commercial deicers are typically delivered prior to the winter season. Other segments have typically not experienced material seasonal trends.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2021, the Company held approximately $11.4 million in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, $4.1 million of which related to restricted cash collateralized for Air T OZ 1, LLC, Air T OZ 2, LLC, and Air T OZ 3, LLC (the "Opportunity Zone Funds"), each a Minnesota limited liability company and a subsidiary of the Company. The Company also held $1.0 million in restricted investments held as statutory reserve of SAIC. The Company has approximately $2.4 million of marketable securities and an aggregate of $54.5 million in available funds under its lines of credit as of June 30, 2021.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company’s working capital amounted to $79.2 million, an increase of $1.6 million compared to March 31, 2021. 

The Company’s Credit Agreement with MBT includes several covenants that are measured once a year at March 31, including, but not limited to, a financial covenant requiring a debt service coverage ratio of 1.25. The AirCo 1 Credit Agreement contains an affirmative covenant relating to collateral valuation. The Contrail Credit Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that restrict the ability of Contrail and its subsidiaries to, among other things, incur or guarantee indebtedness, incur liens, dispose of assets, engage in mergers and consolidations, make acquisitions or other investments, make changes in the nature of its business, and engage in transactions with affiliates. The Contrail Credit Agreement also contains quarterly financial covenants applicable to Contrail and its subsidiaries, including a minimum debt service coverage ratio of 1.25 to 1.0 and a minimum TNW of $15 million.

On September 25, 2020, Contrail entered into a Third Amendment to Supplement #2 to Master Loan Agreement dated June 24, 2019 with ONB. The material changes within the Third Amendment are: (a) to extend the date for compliance with the provision where Contrail is required to pay down the total outstanding principal balance of its revolver to $0 for at least thirty consecutive days to September 5, 2021; and (b) to extend the date for compliance with the required quarterly debt service coverage ratio covenant such that Contrail shall commence compliance with the covenant commencing on March 31, 2022 and on the last day of each fiscal quarter thereafter.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company, AirCo 1 and Contrail were in compliance with all financial covenants.

The revolving line of credit at Air T with MBT has a due date or expires within the next twelve months. We are currently seeking to refinance this obligation prior to August 31, 2021; 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.

25

Contrail and ONB are also in discussions to reduce the minimum TNW covenant to $8 million, in exchange for certain amendments to its credit agreement, including renewing its revolving line of credit at a lower amount than the current agreement. However, there is no assurance that Contrail will be successful in reducing the minimum TNW financial covenant.

In April 2020, the Company obtained loans under the PPP loan, backed by the SBA, as authorized by the CARES Act, of $8.2 million to help pay for payroll costs, mortgage interest, rent and utility costs. As of June 30, 2021, the Company has applied to the SBA for forgiveness of the PPP Loan; however, forgiveness is not fully assured.

As mentioned in Note 13 of Notes to condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included under Part I, Item 1 of this report, in 2016, Contrail entered into an Operating Agreement with the Seller providing for the put and call options with regard to the 21% non-controlling interest retained by the Seller. The Seller is the founder of Contrail and its current Chief Executive Officer. The Put/Call Option permits the Seller to require Contrail Aviation to purchase all of the Seller’s equity membership interests in Contrail Aviation commencing on the fifth anniversary of the acquisition, which was on July 18, 2021. As of the date of this filing, neither the Seller nor Air T has indicated the intent to exercise the put and call options. If either side were to exercise the option, the Company anticipates that the price would approximate the fair value of the Contrail RNCI, as determined on the transaction date. The Company currently expects that it would fund any required payment from cash provided by operations.

As mentioned in Note 13 of Notes to condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included under Part I, Item 1 of this report, on May 5, 2021, the Company formed a new aircraft asset management business called CAM and a new aircraft capital joint venture called CJVII. The new venture will focus on acquiring commercial aircraft and jet engines for leasing, trading and disassembly. CJVII will target investments in current generation narrow-body aircraft and engines, building on Contrail Aviation’s origination and asset management expertise. CAM will serve two separate and distinct functions: 1) to direct the sourcing, acquisition and management of aircraft assets owned by CJVII, and 2) to directly invest into CJVII alongside other institutional investment partners. CAM has an initial commitment to CJVII of approximately $53 million, which is comprised of an $8 million initial commitment from the Company and an approximately $45 million initial commitment from MRC. As of June 30, 2021, CAM's unfunded capital commitments are approximately $6.9 million from the Company and $43.9 million from MRC. CJVII will initially be capitalized with up to $408 million of equity from the Company and three institutional investor partners, consisting of $108 million in initial commitments and $300 million in upsize capacity, contingent on underwriting and transaction appeal. As of the date of this filing, no capital has been deployed to CJVII and the timing of capital deployment is not yet known at this time.

The Company believes it is probable that the cash on hand (including that obtained from the PPP and other current financings), net cash provided by operations from its remaining operating segments, together with its current revolving lines of credit, as amended or replaced, will be sufficient to meet its obligations as they become due in the ordinary course of business for at least 12 months following the date these financial statements are issued.

Cash Flows

Following is a table of changes in cash flow for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2021	2020
Net Cash Used in Operating Activities	(8,821)	(3,335)
Net Cash Used in Investing Activities	(1,449)	(548)
Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities	5,819	5,040
Effect of foreign currency exchange rates on cash and cash equivalents	(49)	(72)
Net (Decrease) Increase in Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash	(4,500)	1,085

Net cash used in operating activities was $8.8 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2021 compared to net cash used in operating activities of $3.3 million in the prior year three-month period. The change in net cash used in operating activities was primarily driven by a net change in accounts receivable of ($7.3 million), partially offset by $1.3 million of change in net income (loss). In the current quarter, the Company had a net increase in accounts receivable of $4.7 million compared to a net decrease of $2.6 million in the prior quarter. In addition, the Company had a net income of $0.3 million in the current quarter and a net loss of $1 million in the prior quarter. Both the increase in accounts receivable and net income in the current quarter are attributable to increased sales in the commercial jet engines and parts segment and the air cargo segment as a result of increased activity in the aviation industry due to loosen COVID-19 related restrictions.

26

Net cash used in investing activities for the three-month period ended June 30, 2021 was $1.4 million compared to net cash used in investing activities of $0.5 million in the prior-year period. Cash was used in the current-year period primarily to invest in CAM, the Company's new aircraft asset management business.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the three-month period ended June 30, 2021 was $5.8 million compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $5.0 million in the prior-year period. The increase was primarily driven by higher net cash proceeds from the Company's lines of credit and issuance of TruPs, partially offset by lower net cash proceeds from the Company's term loans.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses adjusted earnings before taxes, interest, and depreciation and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA"), a non-GAAP financial measure as defined by the SEC, to evaluate the Company's financial performance. This performance measure is not defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and should be considered in addition to, and not in lieu of, GAAP financial measures.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before taxes, interest, and depreciation and amortization, adjusted for specified items. The Company calculates Adjusted EBITDA by removing the impact of specific items and adding back the amounts of interest expense and depreciation and amortization to earnings before income taxes. When calculating Adjusted EBITDA, the Company does not add back depreciation expense for aircraft engines that are on lease, as the Company believes this expense matches with the corresponding revenue earned on engine leases. Depreciation expense for leased engines totaled $0.1 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure of the Company's performance because it provides investors additional information about the Company's operations allowing better evaluation of underlying business performance and better period-to-period comparability. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to replace or be an alternative to operating income (loss), the most directly comparable amounts reported under GAAP.

The tables below provide a reconciliation of operating loss to Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA by segment for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands):

	Three months ended
	6/30/2021		6/30/2020

Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

The Company is exposed to various risks, including interest rate risk. As interest rates are projected to increase and can be volatile, the Company has designated a risk management policy which permits the use of derivative instruments to provide protection against rising interest rates on variable rate debt.

27

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, referred to collectively herein as the Certifying Officers, are responsible for establishing and maintaining our disclosure controls and procedures. The Certifying Officers have reviewed and evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 240.13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of June 30, 2021. Based on that review and evaluation, which included inquiries made to certain other employees of the Company, the Certifying Officers have concluded that the Company’s current disclosure controls and procedures, as designed and implemented, are effective in ensuring that information relating to the Company required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, including ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving the stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.

There has not been any change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) under the Exchange Act that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2021 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
