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, 2019. The results of operations for the period ended September 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period amounts to conform to the current presentation.

Discontinued Operations

On September 30, 2019, the Company completed the sale of Global Aviation Services, LLC ("GAS"). The results of operations of GAS are reported as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. Refer to Foot n ote 4 - "Discontinued Operations" for additional information. Unless otherwise indicated, the disclosures accompanying the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the Company's continuing operations.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) as amended by multiple standards updates. The new standard provides that a lessee should recognize the assets and the liabilities that arise from leases, including operating leases. Under the new requirements, a lessee will recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and the right-of-use asset representing the right to the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of twelve months or less, the lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities.

The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within such fiscal year, with early adoption permitted. Topic 842 permits two transition methods: (1) a modified retrospective transition method requiring retrospective adjustment of each comparative presented with an adjusting entry at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented and (2) a modified retrospective approach with no restatement of prior periods and an adjusting entry as of the effective date. Under both transition methods, entities may elect certain transition practical expedients that would be required to be applied to all leases.

The Company adopted the standard in the fiscal year beginning April 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective transition method that does not require retrospective adjustment of the comparative periods. The Company reviewed existing leases to determine the impact of the adoption of the standard on its consolidated financial statements. Implementation had an immaterial cumulative effect on retained earnings. Adoption resulted in the recognition of right-of-use assets of approximately $10.7 million, and lease liabilities of approximately $11.2 million.

Upon adoption, the Company elected practical expedients related to a) short term lease exemption b) not separate lease and non-lease components c) not reassess whether expired or existing contracts contain leases, d) not reassess lease classification for existing or expired leases and e) not consider whether previously capitalized initial direct costs would be appropriate under the new standard.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2018, the FASB updated the Consolidation (Topic 810): Targeted Improvements to Related Party Guidance for Variable Interest Entities of the Accounting Standards Codification. The amendments in this update affect reporting entities that are required to

determine whether they should consolidate a legal entity under the guidance within the Variable Interest Entities Subsections of Subtopic 810-10, Consolidation—Overall. Indirect interests held through related parties in common control arrangements should be considered on a proportional basis for determining whether fees paid to decision makers and service providers are variable interests.

The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. 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 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 enhancing an asset that the customer controls as repair work, such as labor hours are incurred, and parts installed, is being performed. 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.

3. Business Combinations

Acquisition of Worthington Aviation Parts, Inc.

On May 4, 2018, Air T, Inc. completed the acquisition (the “Transaction”) of substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Worthington Aviation Parts, Inc. (“Worthington”), pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated as of April 6, 2018, by and among the Company, Worthington, and Churchill Industries, Inc., as guarantor of Worthington’s obligations as disclosed in the Purchase Agreement.

Worthington is primarily engaged in the business of operating, distributing and selling airplane and aviation parts along with repair services. The Company agreed to acquire the assets and liabilities in exchange for payment to Worthington of $50,000 as earnest money upon execution of the Agreement and a cash payment of $3,300,000 upon closing. Total consideration is summarized in the table below (in thousands):


Earnest money	$	50
Cash consideration	3,300
Cash acquired	(24)
Total consideration	$	3,326

The Transaction was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC Topic 805 "Business Combinations." Assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at their estimated fair values as of May 4, 2018, with the excess of fair value of net assets acquired recorded as a bargain purchase gain. The most significant asset acquired was Worthington’s inventory. The following table outlines the consideration transferred and purchase price allocation at the respective estimated fair values as of May 4, 2018 (in thousands):


	May 4, 2018

ASSETS
Accounts receivable	$	1,929
Inventories	4,564
Other current assets	150
Property and equipment	392
Other assets	189
Intangible assets - tradename	138
Total assets	7,362

LIABILITIES
Accounts payable	1,289
Accrued expenses	175
Deferred tax liability	589
Total liabilities	2,053


Net assets acquired	5,309

Consideration paid	3,350
Less: Cash acquired	(24)
Bargain purchase gain	$	1,983

The transaction resulted in a bargain purchase gain because Worthington was a non-marketed transaction and in financial distress at the time of the acquisition. The seller engaged in a formal bidding process and determined Air T was the best option for Worthington. The tax impact related to the bargain purchase gain was to record a deferred tax liability and record tax expense against the bargain purchase gain of approximately $589,000. The resulting net bargain purchase gain after taxes was approximately $1,983,000. Total transaction costs incurred in connection with this acquisition were approximately $83,000.

Pro forma financial information is not presented as the results are not material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

4. Discontinued Operations

On September 30, 2019, the Company completed the sale of 100% of the equity ownership in the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Global Aviation Services, LLC ("GAS") to PrimeFlight Aviation Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation. The agreement includes a purchase price of $21 million as well as an earn-out provision of $4 million if certain performance metrics are achieved by March 31, 2020. The Company received approximately $20.5 million of total proceeds at closing after the initial net working capital adjustment. The Company recognized a pre-tax gain on the sale of GAS of approximately $10.8 million with tax impact of $2.4 million for a net of tax gain of $8.4 million in the second quarter of 2019. The gain is subject to change pending final settlement statement, final transaction costs and net working capital adjustments.

Summarized results of operations of GAS for the three and six months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 through the date of disposition are as follows (in thousands):

5. Income Taxes

During the three-month period ended September 30, 2019, the Company recorded $296,000 in income tax benefit from continuing operations at an effective rate ("ETR") of 12.2%. The Company records income taxes using a discrete, year-to-date tax expense calculation 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 September 30, 2019 were the change in valuation allowance related to Delphax, the estimated expense for the exclusion of loss for the Company's captive insurance company subsidiary under Section 831(b), the estimated deduction for Foreign-Derived Intangible Income, and the exclusion from the tax provision of the minority owned portion of the pretax income of Contrail Aviation Support, LLC. During the three month period ended September 30, 2018, the Company recorded $300,000 in income tax benefit from continuing operations at an ETR of 27.8%. The primary factors contributing to the difference between the federal statutory rate and the Company's effective tax rate for the three-month period ended September 30, 2018 were the estimated benefit for the exclusion of income for the Company's captive insurance company subsidiary under Section 831(b), the presentation of the tax impact of the bargain purchase gain and state income tax expense.

During the six-month period ended September 30, 2019, the Company recorded $668,000 in income tax benefit from continuing operations at an ETR of (55.6)%. The Company records income taxes using a discrete, year-to-date tax expense calculation 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 six-month period ended September 30, 2019 were the change in valuation allowance related to Delphax, the estimated expense for the exclusion of loss for the Company's captive insurance company subsidiary under Section 831(b), the estimated deduction for Foreign-Derived Intangible Income, and the exclusion from the tax provision of the minority owned portion of the pretax income of Contrail Aviation Support, LLC. During the six-month period ended September 30, 2018, the Company recorded $117,000 in income tax expense from continuing operations at an ETR of 4.4%. The primary factors contributing to the difference between the federal statutory rate and the Company's effective tax rate for the six-month period ended September 30, 2018 were related to the estimated benefit for the exclusion of income for the Company's captive insurance company subsidiary afforded under Section 831(b), the change in valuation allowance and the presentation of the tax impact of the bargain purchase gain.

For the three and six months ended September 30, 2019, the ETR in discontinued operations is 73.7% and 89.7%, respectively. The ETR is impacted by the effect of the release of the valuation allowance recorded in fiscal year 2019 against the $2 million impaired reinsurance contracts. For the three and six months ended September 30, 2018, the ETR in discontinued operations is 12.6% and 14.8%, respectively. The ETR is impacted by permanent, non-deductible items for tax.

6. Net Earnings 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 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. There were 3,151 anti-dilutive securities as of September 30, 2019. The computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share is as follows (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended September 30,						Six Months Ended September 30,

On June 10, 2019, the Company effected a three-for-two stock split of its common stock in the form of a 50% stock dividend to shareholders of record as of June 4, 2019. All share and earnings per share information have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the stock split and the incremental par value of the newly-issued shares was recorded with the offset to additional paid-in capital.

With respect to our September 30, 2019 Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the effect of the stock split was recognized retroactively in the stockholders’ equity accounts in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and in all share data in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

All investments in marketable securities are priced using publicly quoted market prices and are considered Level 1 fair value measurements.

8. 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. At September 30, 2019, the Company held approximately 3.5 million shares of Insignia’s common stock representing approximately 29% of the outstanding shares. For the quarter ended September 30, 2019, the Company recorded approximately $142,196 as its share of Insignia’s net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2019 along with a basis difference adjustment of approximately $24,032. In addition, due to the adverse financial results as reported in Insignia's Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 in addition to consideration of analyst reports and other qualitative factors, the Company determined that it has suffered from an other-than-temporary impairment in its investment in Insignia . As such, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $395,031 during the quarter ended September 30, 2019. After the impairment, the Company's net investment basis in Insignia is $3,439,547 as of September 30, 2019.

Summarized unaudited financial information for Insignia for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 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 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 and six months ended September 30, 2019 are as follows (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended September 30, 2019		Six Months Ended September 30, 2019

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). See Footnote 6 for discussion.

•The Company issued and distributed to existing common shareholders 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). The Warrants are exercisable for one year from issuance.

The issuance of the TruPs and Warrants on June 10, 2019 is disclosed on our consolidated statements of equity as well as within the supplemental non-cash disclosure of the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows. As of September 30, 2019, 2,252,797 Warrants have been exercised. As a result, the amount outstanding on the Company's Debt - Trust Preferred Securities is $9,632,243 as of September 30, 2019.

At September 30, 2019, the Company had Warrants outstanding and exercisable to purchase 6,147,203 shares of its TruPs at an exercise price of $2.40 per share, which represents a discount to the $2.50 face value of each Trust Preferred Security. The Warrants will expire on June 7, 2020 or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.


	Fair Value Measurement as of September 30, 2019
Warrant liability (Level 2)	$	614,720

As of September 30, 2019, the Warrants are recorded within "Other non-current liabilities" on our 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 August 16, 2019, Contrail entered into a term loan agreement with to borrow $13 million at the interest rate of LIBOR plus 3.75% per annum. The maturity date of the term loan is August 1, 2024.

On September 24, 2019, Air T amended the MBT revolver ("Air T Revolver") to temporarily increase the borrowing commitment from $17 million to $20 million. All other terms of the credit agreement remain unchanged. As noted in Footnote 17 - Subsequent Events, on November 8, 2019, Air T extended the maturity date of the Air T Revolver to February 28, 2020. The principal amount reverted back to $17 million. Concurrently, the Company also extended the maturity date of the AirCo MBT revolver ("AirCo Revolver") to February 28, 2020. Principal amount and terms of the AirCo Revolver remained unchanged.

The Company assumes various financial obligations and commitments in the normal course of its operations and financing activities. Financial obligations are considered to represent known future cash payments that the Company is required to make under existing contractual arrangements such as debt and lease agreements.

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.

As of August 1, 2018, these swap contracts were designated as cash flow hedging instruments and qualified as effective hedges in accordance with ASC 815-30. The effective portion of changes in the fair value on these instruments is recorded in other comprehensive income and is reclassified into the consolidated statement of income as interest expense in the same period in which the underlying hedge transaction affects earnings. As of September 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019, the fair value of the interest-rate swap contracts was a liability of $570,069 and $227,000, respectively, which is included within other non-current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. During the three months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recorded a loss of approximately $88,000, net of tax, in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income (loss) for changes in the fair value of the instruments.

12. Variable Interest Entities

A variable interest entity ("VIE") is an entity that either (i) has insufficient equity to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, or (ii) has equity investors who lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. Under ASC 810 - Consolidation, an entity that holds a variable interest in a VIE and meets certain requirements would be considered to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE and required to consolidate the VIE in its consolidated financial statements. In order to be considered the primary beneficiary of a VIE, an entity must hold a variable interest in the VIE and have both:

•the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE; and

•the right to receive benefits from, or the obligation to absorb losses of, the VIE that could be potentially significant to the VIE.

The Company concluded that its investments in Delphax’s equity and debt, and its investment in the Delphax warrant, each constituted a variable interest. In addition, the Company concluded that it became the primary beneficiary of Delphax on November 24, 2015. The Company consolidated Delphax in its consolidated financial statements beginning on that date.

The following table sets forth the carrying values of Delphax’s assets and liabilities as of September 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019 (in thousands):

Upon petition by the Company, on August 8, 2017 the Ontario Superior Court of Justice in Bankruptcy and Insolvency adjudged Delphax Canada to be bankrupt. As a result, Delphax Canada ceased to have capacity to deal with its property, which then vested in the trustee in bankruptcy of Delphax Canada subject to the rights of secured creditors. As of June 30, 2019, the bankruptcy proceedings were finalized in accordance with Canadian law and, therefore, Delphax Canada was legally discharged of its liabilities. The conclusion of the bankruptcy proceedings also resulted in the dissolution of Delphax Canada. In addition, on June 11, 2019, the Company has also fully dissolved Delphax UK. As such, the only Delphax entity that remains in existence as of September 30, 2019 is Delphax France. The Company extinguished the assets and liabilities of Delphax Canada and Delphax UK during the quarter ended June 30, 2019 and recognized a gain on dissolution of entities of $4,509,302.

Delphax’s revenues and expenses are included in our consolidated financial statements beginning November 24, 2015 through September 30, 2019. Revenues and expenses prior to the date of initial consolidation were excluded. We have determined that the attribution of Delphax net income or loss should be based on consideration of all of Air T’s investments in Delphax and Delphax Canada. The Delphax warrant ("Delphax warrant") provides that in the event that dividends are paid on the common stock of Delphax, the holder of the Delphax warrant is entitled to participate in such dividends on a ratable basis as if the Delphax warrant had been fully exercised and the shares of Series B Preferred Stock acquired upon such exercise had been converted into shares of Delphax common

stock. This provision would have entitled Air T, Inc. to approximately 67% of any Delphax dividends paid, with the remaining 33% paid to the non-controlling interests. We concluded that this was a substantive distribution right which should be considered in the attribution of Delphax net income or loss to non-controlling interests. We furthermore concluded that our investment in the debt of Delphax should be considered in attribution. Specifically, Delphax’s net losses are attributed first to our Series B Preferred Stock and Delphax warrant investments and to the non-controlling interest (67%/33%) until such amounts are reduced to zero. Additional losses are then fully attributed to our debt investments until they too are reduced to zero. This sequencing reflects the relative priority of debt to equity. Any further losses are then attributed to Air T and the non-controlling interests based on the initial 67%/33% share. Delphax net income is attributed using a backwards-tracing approach with respect to previous losses.

As a result of the application of the above-described attribution methodology, for the quarters ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018 the attribution of Delphax losses to non-controlling interests was 33% and 33%, respectively.

The following table sets forth the revenue and expenses of Delphax prior to intercompany eliminations that are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of income for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 (in thousands):

16. Commitments and Contingencies

Contrail Aviation Support, LLC (“Contrail Aviation”), a subsidiary of the Company, completed the purchase of all of the assets owned by Contrail Aviation Support, Inc. (the “Seller”) in July 2016. As part of this purchase, Contrail Aviation agreed to pay contingent additional deferred consideration of up to a maximum of $1,500,000 per year and $3,000,000 in the aggregate. The Company has paid

in full the contingent consideration as of September 30, 2019 and there is no remaining liability as of September 30, 2019.

Contrail Aviation entered into an Operating Agreement (the “Operating Agreement”) with the Seller providing for the governance of and the terms of membership interests in Contrail Aviation and including put and call options (“Put/Call Option”). 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 is on July 18, 2021. The Company has presented this redeemable non-controlling interest in Contrail Aviation between the liabilities and equity sections of the accompanying 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 $6,000,000. The net change in the redemption value compared to March 31, 2019 is an increase of $524,000, of which $203,858 was related to the net change in fair value during the six months ended September 30, 2019, which is reflected on our consolidated statements of equity.

17. Subsequent Events

Management performs an evaluation of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before consolidated financial statements are issued for potential recognition or disclosure of such events in its consolidated financial statements.

The borrowing capacity returned to $17 million from a temporary increase to $20 million on September 24, as mentioned in Footnote 12, Fi nancing Arrang ements. Concurrently, the Company also extended the maturity date of the AirCo Revolver to February 28, 2020. Principal amount remained at $10 million. All other terms for both agreements remained unchanged.

On November 8, 2019, the Company purchased a 19.90% interest in Cadillac Castings, Inc, a Michigan corporation (“Cadillac”). The purchase price for the interest acquired approximated $3,000,000. Cadillac is a full-service ductile iron foundry located in Cadillac, Michigan.

Second Quarter Fiscal 2020 Compared to Second Quarter Fiscal 2019

Consolidated revenue increased by $9,826 or 24% to $50,693 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2019 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 September 30, 2019 compared to the same quarter in the prior fiscal year (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended September 30,						Change
	2019		2018
Overnight Air Cargo	$	19,745	$	17,064	$	2,681	16	%
Ground Equipment Sales	12,741		12,838		(97)		(1)	%

Commercial Jet Engines and Parts	17,801		10,643		7,158		67	%
Printing Equipment and Maintenance	249		139		110		79	%
Corporate and other	157		183		(26)		(14)	%
	$	50,693	$	40,867	$	9,826	24	%

Revenues from the air cargo segment increased by $2,681 (16%) compared to the second quarter of the prior fiscal year. The increase was principally attributable to higher administrative fees and pass-through revenues to FedEx and higher sales to maintenance customers outside of FedEx.

The ground equipment sales segment contributed approximately $12,741 and $12,838 to the Company’s revenues for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 respectively, representing a $97 (1)% decrease in the current quarter. At September 30, 2019, the ground equipment sales segment’s order backlog was $36.2 million compared to $30.6 million at September 30, 2018.

The commercial jet engines and parts segment contributed $17,801 of revenues in the quarter ended September 30, 2019 compared to $10,643 in the comparable prior year quarter which is an increase of $7,158 or 67%. The increase was primarily driven by Contrail's higher aircraft and component sales as well as higher lease revenue in the current quarter.

Following is a table detailing operating income (loss) by segment during the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same quarter in the prior fiscal year (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended September 30, 2019						Change
	2019		2018
Overnight Air Cargo	$	254	$	198	$	56	28	%
Ground Equipment Sales	1,221		696		525		75	%

Commercial Jet Engines and Parts	1,083		575		508		88	%
Printing Equipment and Maintenance	(300)		(413)		113		(27)	%
Corporate and other	(1,791)		(1,935)		144		(7)	%
	$	467	$	(879)	$	1,346	n/m

Consolidated operating income for the quarter ended September 30, 2019 was $467, an increase of $1,346 from the operating loss of $879 in the comparable quarter of the prior year.

The ground equipment sales segment operating income increased by $525 (75%) to $1,221. This increase was primarily attributable to the fact that sales in the current quarter contained higher margin orders when compared to prior quarter sales that included broader product mix with lower margin orders.

The commercial jet engines and parts segment generated an operating income of $1,083 in the current-year quarter compared to an operating income of $575 in the prior-year quarter. The change was due to Contrail's higher margin aircraft and component sales, offset by higher medical claims costs at other companies in the same segment.

Consolidated operating expenses increased by $8,482 or 20% to $50,227 in the current year quarter. The increase in operating expenses was primarily driven by the commercial jet engines and parts segment and the ground equipment sales segment. The higher operating expenses was a direct result of increased sales in these two segments.

Following is a table detailing non-operating income (loss) during the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same quarter in the prior fiscal year (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended September 30,						Change
	2019		2018
Other-than-temporary impairment loss on investments	$	(395)	$	—	$	(395)
Interest expense	(2,047)		(714)		(1,333)
Gain on settlement of bankruptcy	18		—		18

Income (Loss) from equity method investments	(34)		160		(194)
Other	(440)		354		(794)
	$	(2,884)	$	(200)	$	(2,684)

The Company had net non-operating loss of $(2,884) for the quarter ended September 30, 2019, an increase of $(2,684) from $(200) in the prior-year quarter, principally due to an impairment loss in the investment of Insignia of $(395) and an increase in interest expense of $(1,333) generated by increased debt activities as detailed in Foot note 11.

Pretax loss from continuing operations for the three-month period ended September 30, 2019 was $(2,418) compared to $(1,079) in the prior year comparable period, which was primarily attributable to the increase in non-operating loss of $(2,684), offset by increase in operating income of $1,346 as explained above.

During the three-month period ended September 30, 2019, the Company recorded $296 in income tax benefit at an effective rate of 12.24%. The Company records income taxes using a discrete, year-to-date tax expense calculation for interim reporting. The primary factors contributing to the difference between the federal statutory rate of 21% and the Company's effective tax rate for the three-month period ended September 30, 2019 were the change in valuation allowance related to Delphax, the estimated expense for the exclusion of loss for the Company's captive insurance company subsidiary under Section 831(b), the estimated deduction for Foreign-Derived Intangible Income, and the exclusion from the tax provision of the minority owned portion of the pretax income of Contrail Aviation Support, LLC. During the three month period ended September 30, 2018, the Company recorded $300 in income tax benefit

which resulted in an effective tax rate of 27.80%. The primary factors contributing to the difference between the federal statutory rate and the Company's effective tax rate for the three-month period ended September 30, 2018 were the estimated benefit for the exclusion of income for the Company's captive insurance company subsidiary under Section 831(b), the presentation of the tax impact of the bargain purchase gain and state income tax expense.

First Six Months of Fiscal 2019 Compared to First Six Months of Fiscal 2018

Following is a table detailing revenue by segment (in thousands):


	Six Months Ended September 30,								Change
	2019		2018		6 mos

Overnight Air Cargo	$	38,064	$	34,705	$	3,359	10	%
Ground Equipment Sales	24,991		19,224		5,767		30	%
Printing Equipment and Maintenance	313		439		(126)		(29)	%
Commercial Jet Engines and Parts	34,128		37,963		(3,835)		(10)	%
Corporate	385		356		29		8	%
	$	97,881	$	92,687	$	5,194	6	%

Revenues from the air cargo segment increased by $3,359 or 10% compared to the six months ended September 30, 2018. The increase was principally attributable to higher administrative fees and pass-through revenues to FedEx and higher sales to maintenance customers outside of FedEx.

The ground equipment sales segment contributed approximately $24,991 and $19,224 to the Company’s revenues for the six-month periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 respectively, representing a $5,767 or 30% increase in the current six-month period. The increase was due to increased orders of commercial and military deicers in addition to new customers.

The commercial jet engines and parts segment contributed $34,128 of revenues in the six months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $37,963 in the comparable prior year six months. The decrease was primarily driven by the fact that Contrail sold four whole engines in May 2018 totaling $17.4 million, which did not recur in 2019. This decrease was slightly offset by higher component and lease revenues in the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018.

Following is a table detailing operating income (loss) by segment during the six months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same six months in the prior fiscal year (in thousands):


	Six Months Ended September 30,								Change

Corporate	(3,663)		(3,666)		3		—	%
	$	1,465	$	1,812	$	(347)	(19)	%

Consolidated operating income for the six months ended September 30, 2019 was $1,465, a decrease of $347 from operating income of $1,812 for the comparable six months of prior year.

Operating income for the air cargo segment decreased by $984 (78)% due primarily to higher pilot salaries and increased pilot headcount.

The ground equipment sales segment operating income increased by $1,479 (136%) to $2,568 in the six-month period ended September 30, 2019. This increase was primarily attributable to increased sales volume as well as higher margin product mix.

The commercial jet engines and parts segment generated an operating income of $2,971 in the current-year six months compared to an operating income of $3,788 in the prior-year six months. The decrease corresponded to the decrease in sales in this segment in addition to higher medical claim costs when compared to prior year six months.

Consolidated operating expenses increased by $5,541 or 6% to $96,416 in the six months ended September 30, 2019. The increase in operating expenses was primarily driven by the increases in the overnight air cargo segment due to higher pilot salaries and the ground equipment sales segment (higher operating expenses as a result of increased sales), offset by the decrease in the commercial jet engines and parts segment as a result of decreased sales at Contrail and higher medical claims costs at other companies in the same segment.

Following is a table detailing non-operating income (loss) during the six months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same six months in the prior fiscal year (in thousands):

The Company had net non-operating loss of $(265) for the six months ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of $(1,131) from net non-operating income of $866 in the prior-year six-month period, principally due to an impairment loss in the investment of Insignia of $(1,210), an increase in interest expense of $(1,650) generated by increased debt activities as detailed in Footnote 11, a decrease in bargain purchase acquisition gain of $(1,935) offset by the $4,527 gain on settlement of bankruptcy related to Dephax Canada and UK.

Pretax income from continuing operations for the six-month period ended September 30, 2019 was $1,200 compared to $2,678 in the prior year comparable period, which was primarily attributable to the decrease in non-operating loss of $(1,131) in addition to decrease in operating income of $(347) as explained above.

During the six-month period ended September 30, 2019, the Company recorded $668 in income tax expense at an effective rate of 55.65%. The Company records income taxes using a discrete, year-to-date tax expense calculation for interim reporting. The primary factors contributing to the difference between the federal statutory rate of 21% and the Company's effective tax rate for the six-month period ended September 30, 2019 were the change in valuation allowance related to Delphax, the estimated expense for the exclusion of loss for the Company's captive insurance company subsidiary under Section 831(b), the estimated deduction for Foreign-Derived Intangible Income, and the exclusion from the tax provision of the minority owned portion of the pretax income of Contrail Aviation Support, LLC. During the six-month period ended September 30, 2018, the Company recorded $117 in income tax benefit which resulted in an effective tax rate of 4.37%. The primary factors contributing to the difference between the federal statutory rate and the Company's effective tax rate for the six-month period ended September 30, 2018 were related to the estimated benefit for the exclusion of income for the Company's captive insurance company subsidiary afforded under Section 831(b), the change in valuation allowance and the presentation of the tax impact of the bargain purchase gain.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company’s significant accounting policies are fully described in Note 1 to the 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, 2019. The preparation of the Company’s 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 September 30, 2019.

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 are not susceptible to material seasonal trends.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2019, the Company held approximately $27,536 in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. The Company also held $1,018 in restricted investments held as statutory reserve of SAIC and the remaining $102 of restricted investments pledged to secure SAIC’s participation in certain reinsurance pools. The Company has approximately $4,862 of marketable securities as of September 30, 2019.

As of September 30, 2019, the Company’s working capital amounted to $42,955, an increase of $24,401 compared to September 30, 2018.

As of September 30, 2019, the exercise of Warrants to purchase TruPs issued on June 10, 2019 has generated cash proceeds of $5,407, which is disclosed in the financing section on our consolidated statements of cash flows.

On August 16, 2019, Contrail entered into a term loan agreement with Old National Bank to borrow $13 million at the interest rate of LIBOR plus 3.75% per annum. The maturity date of the term loan is August 1, 2024.

On September 24, 2019, Air T amended the MBT revolver to temporarily increase the borrowing commitment from $17 million to $20 million. All other terms of the credit agreement remain unchanged.

The revolving lines of credit at both Air T and AirCo have due dates or expire within the next twelve months, as does some term debts within various business units. On November 8, 2019, we entered into agreements with MBT ("extension agreements") to extend the maturity date of the Air T Revolver and AirCo Revolver to February 28, 2020. As part of the extension agreement, the Air T revolver's borrowing capacity was also returned to $17 million. We are currently seeking to refinance these obligations prior to February 28,

2020; however, there is no assurance that we will be able to execute this refinancing or, if we are able to refinance these obligations, that the terms of such refinancing would be as favorable as the terms of our existing credit facility.

As of September 30, 2019, the Company had sufficient capital resources to cover contractual financing obligations due by September 30, 2020. Cash flows from operations, cash and cash equivalents, and the other sources of liquidity described above are expected to be available and sufficient to meet foreseeable cash requirements.

The Company’s Credit Agreement with MBT (the Air T debt in Footnote 11 to the financial statements) includes several covenants that are measured once a year as of March 31, including but not limited to a negative covenant requiring a debt service coverage ratio of 1.25. The Company is working with its operating subsidiaries to assure compliance with the MBT covenants at March 31, 2020. However, there is no assurance that the Company will meet each covenant at March 31, 2020 and in such event the Company will work with MBT to seek a waiver and/or undertake other actions to avoid an event of non-compliance.

Cash Flows

Following is a table of changes in cash flow for the six months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 (in thousands):


	Six Months Ended September 30,
	2019	2018

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities	603	14,871
Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Investing Activities	1,933	(27,576)
Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities	12,327	13,258
Effect of foreign currency exchange rates on cash and cash equivalents	26	5

Net Increase in Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash	14,889	558

Net cash provided by operating activities was $603 for the six-month period ended September 30, 2019 compared to the net cash provided by operating activities of $14,871 in prior year period. The primary drivers in the decrease in cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended September 30, 2019 was the increase in accounts receivable at GGS due to significant increase in commercial deicer sales as well as increased inventory levels at Contrail due to two engines coming off lease into inventory and at GGS due to significant backlog and production requirements in the current quarter.

Net cash provided by investing activities for the six-month period ended September 30, 2019 was $1,933 compared to net cash used in investing activities of $(27,576) in prior year period. The primary driver in generating cash from investing activities was the lower cash used in business combinations, purchases of marketable securities as well as lower capital expenditures, and cash provided by the sale of GAS.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the six-month period ended September 30, 2019 was $12,327 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $13,258 in the prior year period. The slight decrease was primarily driven by lower net cash proceeds from lines of credit and term loans, in addition to cash proceeds from exercise of Warrants to purchase TruPs.

Impact of Inflation

The Company believes that inflation has not had a material effect on its operations, because increased costs to date have generally been passed on to its customers. Under the terms of its overnight air cargo business contracts the major cost components of this business’ operations, consist principally of fuel, and certain other direct operating costs, and certain maintenance costs that are reimbursed by its customer. Significant increases in inflation rates could, however, have a material impact on future revenue and operating income.

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 provides for the use of derivative instruments to provide protection against rising interest rates on variable rate debt.

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 September 30, 2019. 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 September 30, 2019 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
