PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Overview

Global Crossing Airlines Group Inc. (“GlobalX” or the “Company”) operates a US Part 121 domestic flag and supplemental airline using the Airbus A320 family of aircraft (“A320”). GlobalX’s business model is to (1) provide services on an Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance and Insurance (“ACMI”) using wet lease contracts to airlines and non-airlines, and (2) on a Full Service (“Charter”) basis whereby we provide passenger aircraft charter services to customers by charging an “all-in” fee that includes fuel, insurance, landing fees, navigation fees and most other operational fees and costs. GlobalX operates within the United States, Europe, Canada, Central and South America. GlobalX began operating the Airbus A321 freighter (“A321F”) during the first quarter of 2023 after completing all FAA certification requirements with the A321F.

The Company was originally incorporated in British Columbia, Canada on September 2, 1966 under the name Shasta Mines & Oil Ltd. On February 4, 1975, the Company changed its name to International Shasta Resources Ltd. On May 20, 1994, the Company changed its name to Consolidated Shasta Resources Inc. On November 23, 1994, the Company changed its name again to Lima Gold Corporation and on September 21, 1999, the Company again changed its name to International Lima Resources Corp. On March 1, 2004, the Company changed its name to Crosshair Exploration & Mining Corp. On June 1, 2004 the Company transitioned (from a provincially incorporated entity to a federally incorporated entity) under the Business Corporation Act (British Columbia) (BCBCA). On October 28, 2011, the Company changed its name to Crosshair Energy Corporation. On September 17, 2013, the Company changed its name to Jet Metal Corp. On February 28, 2017, the Company continued as a corporation governed by the Canada Business Corporations Act and changed its name to Canada Jetlines Ltd.

On June 23, 2020, the Company (at the time named Canada Jetlines Ltd.) consummated a business combination with Global Crossing Airlines, Inc.

On December 22, 2020, the Company changed its jurisdiction of incorporation from the Province of British Columbia, Canada to the State of Delaware (the “U.S. Domestication“). In connection with the U.S. Domestication, the Company changed its name to “Global Crossing Airlines Group Inc.”

Operations

GlobalX operates a US Part 121 domestic flag and supplemental airline using the Airbus A320 family of aircraft. GlobalX will remain competitive by providing services on an Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance and Insurance basis (“ACMI”) along all in charter contracts to airlines operating within the United States and throughout North and South America, develop aircraft interchanges with leading European charter/tour operators, and ad-hoc and track charters for non-airline customers.

GlobalX has completed the FAA regulatory certification process and received DOT approval. We are led by an operating team with a combined 190 years of Airline experience.

GlobalX’s passenger aircraft fleet is built on the Airbus A320-200 fleet family. GlobalX started operations with one leased A320 in 2021 and it has a fleet of eight aircraft as of December 31, 2022 with plans to increase to 22 within the next 12 months.

GlobalX’s cargo aircraft fleet is based on the Airbus A321 aircraft type. GlobalX started operations with one lease A321F aircraft in January 2023 and plans to increase to six A321F aircraft by the fourth quarter of 2023.

Location of Operations Bases

GlobalX will initially operate from one primary geographic base:

GlobalX also maintains two additional crew bases at the following locations:

Employees

GlobalX had approximately 400 and 200 full time employees as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Government Regulation

Aviation Regulation

The airline industry is heavily regulated, especially by the federal government. Two of the primary regulatory authorities overseeing air transportation in the United States are the U.S. Department of Transportation (the “DOT”) and the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (the “FAA”) . The DOT has authority to issue certificates of public convenience and necessity, exemptions and other economic authority required for airlines to provide domestic and foreign air transportation. International routes and international code-sharing arrangements are regulated by the DOT and by the governments of the foreign countries involved. A U.S. airline’s ability to operate flights to and from international destinations is subject to the air transport agreements between the United States and the foreign country and the carrier’s ability to obtain the necessary authority from the DOT and the applicable foreign government.

The U.S. government has negotiated “open skies” agreements with many countries, which allow unrestricted access between the United States and the applicable foreign country and to points beyond the foreign country on flights serving the foreign country. With certain other countries, however, the United States has a restricted air transportation agreement.

The FAA is responsible for regulating and overseeing matters relating to the safety of air carrier flight operations, including the control of navigable air space, the qualification of flight personnel, flight training practices, compliance with FAA airline operating certificate requirements, aircraft certification and maintenance requirements and other matters affecting air safety. The FAA requires each commercial airline to obtain and hold an FAA air carrier certificate. We currently hold an FAA air carrier certificate.

GlobalX has a Part 121 Air Carrier Certification from the FAA. The FAA uses the process to ensure that the applicant (also referred to as Certificate Holder) is able to design, document, implement, and audit safety critical processes that do two things: (1) Comply with regulations and safety standards; and (2) manage hazard-related risks in the operating environment.

The purpose of the Process is to determine whether an applicant can conduct business in a manner that complies with all applicable regulations and safety standards and allows the applicant to manage the hazard-related risks in its operating systems and environment. The Process is designed to preclude the certification of applicants who are unwilling or unable to comply with regulations or to conform to safe operating practices.

The Process assures that the applicant’s processes, programs, systems, and intended methods of compliance are thoroughly reviewed, evaluated, and tested. Once completed, the Process provides confidence that the applicant’s infrastructure (programs, methods, and systems) results in continued compliance and provides the applicant with the ability to manage hazard related risks in its operating systems and environment.

The FAA will not issue an air carrier certificate until the Safety Analysis and Promotion Division management, the Certification and Evaluation Program Office (CEPO) management, and Air Carrier Safety Assurance (ACSA) Management are confident and agree that the prospective certificate holder is able to provide service at the highest possible degree of safety in the public interest.

As Title 49 of the United States Code states below, safety is both a priority and a legal responsibility of the Certificate Holder. It is up to the FAA to ensure that the Certificate Holder understands and accepts this duty prior to issuing the Air Carrier Certificate. The FAA receives its authority from:

In order to assure that the policies listed above are followed, the FAA:

Consumer Protection Regulation

The DOT also has jurisdiction over certain economic issues affecting air transportation and consumer protection matters, including unfair or deceptive practices and unfair methods of competition, lengthy tarmac delays, airline advertising, denied boarding compensation, ticket refunds, baggage liability, contracts of carriage, customer service commitments, consumer notices and disclosures, customer complaints and transportation of passengers with disabilities. The DOT frequently adopts new consumer protection regulations, such as rules to protect passengers addressing lengthy tarmac delays, chronically delayed flights, codeshare disclosure and undisclosed display bias. They also have adopted, and do adopt, new rules on airline advertising and marketing practices. The DOT also has authority to review certain joint venture agreements, marketing agreements, code-sharing agreements (where an airline places its designator code on a flight operated by another airline) and wet-leasing agreements (where one airline provides aircraft and crew to another airline) between carriers and regulates other economic matters such as slot transactions.

Security Regulation

The U.S. Transportation Security Administration (the “TSA”) and the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”), each a division of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, are responsible for certain civil aviation security matters, including passenger and baggage screening at U.S. airports, and international passenger prescreening prior to entry into or departure from the United States. International flights are subject to customs, border, immigration and similar requirements of equivalent foreign governmental agencies. We are currently in compliance with all directives issued by such agencies.

Environmental Regulation

We are subject to various federal, state, foreign and local laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment and affecting matters such as air emissions (including GHG emissions), noise emissions, discharges to surface and subsurface waters, safe drinking water, and the use, management, release, discharge and disposal of, and exposure to, materials and chemicals.

We are also subject to environmental laws and regulations that require us to investigate and remediate soil or groundwater to meet certain remediation standards. Under certain laws, generators of waste materials, and current and former owners or operators of facilities, can be subject to liability for investigation and remediation costs at locations that have been identified as requiring response actions. Liability under these laws may be strict, joint and several, meaning that we could be liable for the costs of cleaning up environmental contamination regardless of fault or the amount of wastes directly attributable to us.

GHG Emissions

Concern about climate change and greenhouse gases has resulted, and is expected to continue to result, in additional regulation or taxation of aircraft emissions in the United States and abroad. In particular, on March 6, 2017, the ICAO an agency of the United Nations established to manage the administration and governance of the Convention on International Civil Aviation, adopted new carbon dioxide, or CO2 certification standards for new aircraft beginning in 2020. The new CO2 standards will apply to new aircraft type designs from 2020, and to aircraft type designs already in production as of 2023. In-production aircraft that do not meet the standard by 2028 will no longer be able to be produced unless their designs are modified to meet the new standards. In August 2016, the EPA made a final endangerment finding that GHG emissions cause or contribute to air pollution that may reasonably be anticipated to endanger public health or welfare, which obligates the EPA under the Clean Air Act to set GHG emissions standards for aircraft. In August 2020, the EPA issued a proposed rule regulating GHG emissions from aircraft that largely conforms to the March 2017 ICAO standards. However, on January 20, 2021, the new presidential administration, which is expected to promote more aggressive policies with respect to climate change and carbon emissions, including in the aviation sector, announced a freeze with respect to all pending rulemaking. Accordingly, the outcome of this rulemaking may result in stricter GHG emissions standards than those contained in the proposed rule.

Noise

Federal law recognizes the right of airport operators with special noise problems to implement local noise abatement procedures so long as those procedures do not interfere unreasonably with interstate and foreign commerce and the national air transportation system, subject to FAA review under the Airport Noise and Control Act of 1990. These restrictions can include limiting nighttime operations,

5

directing specific aircraft operational procedures during take-off and initial climb and limiting the overall number of flights at an airport. While we have had sufficient scheduling flexibility to accommodate local noise restrictions in the past, our operations could be adversely impacted if ICAO or locally imposed regulations become more restrictive or widespread.

Other Regulations

Airlines are also subject to various other federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations. For example, the U.S. Department of Justice has jurisdiction over certain airline competition matters. The privacy and security of passenger and employee data is regulated by various domestic and foreign laws and regulations.

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Our Operations

The COVID-19 pandemic (the “Pandemic”) has created an unprecedented opportunity for GlobalX. When looking to launch an airline there are three primary barriers to entry; certification, access to airplanes and access to crew. The Pandemic has caused immense harm to the existing airline business, tens of thousands of people have been laid off and thousands of planes have been moved to long term storage. This has created an opportunity for GlobalX to hire highly experienced and qualified staff in addition to acquiring planes at rates more than half of those required before the Pandemic. Combine these two elements and it is our belief that GlobalX is positioned to secure a substantial cost advantage over existing competition in the near term.

Effect of the Pandemic on aircraft availability. Due to the downturn caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the lease terms to GlobalX for the aircraft it has leased and plans to lease have been favorably impacted by: (1) greater availability of aircraft in the required time frame; (2) lower lease cost; (3) a greater willingness for lessors to provide GlobalX, as a start-up airline, aircraft without onerous aircraft deposit and security conditions; (4) lessened impact of a licensing delay or other start-up delays on the cost of leased aircraft not flying; and (5) sister ship availability, which is desirable because such aircraft are configured similarly reduces the complexity of maintenance and the availability of spare parts inventory.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Risks Related to Our Business

We have a limited operating history, which makes it difficult to forecast our revenue and evaluate our business and future prospects.

GlobalX is and will be for the near future, in the build-out stage of the airline and as a result, investors are unable to review and consider any operational history to evaluate future viability or profitability. GlobalX will be subject to the risks, difficulties and uncertainties associated with a start-up airline. The likelihood of GlobalX’s success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays frequently encountered in connection with the expansion of a business, operation in a competitive industry and the development of a customer base. GlobalX could also sustain material losses in the future. GlobalX’s future performance will depend upon a number of factors, including its ability to:

6

We have a history of net losses, we anticipate increasing operating expenses in the future, and we may not be able to achieve and, if achieved, maintain profitability.

GlobalX is generating operating revenue and has negative cash flow from operating activities. It is anticipated that GlobalX will continue to have negative cash flow in the foreseeable future. If our revenue does not increase to offset the expected increases in our operating expenses, we will not be profitable in future periods. Continued losses may have the following consequences:

Our ability to lease aircraft on favorable terms will have a significant impact on our operating performance, need for capital and profitability.

To operate in accordance with its business plan, GlobalX will need to acquire or lease additional aircraft. At present, GlobalX has not acquired any aircraft. However, GlobalX has entered into lease agreements and taken delivery, as lessee, eight Airbus A320 family of Aircraft. While GlobalX does not anticipate any difficulties in entering into satisfactory leasing arrangements for additional aircraft, there is no guarantee that we will be able to enter into leases for additional aircraft on terms satisfactory to it, or at all.

The terms of GlobalX’s leasing arrangements will impact the potential profitability of GlobalX’s business. If we are unable to acquire or lease additional aircraft on satisfactory terms, we will be unable to operate in accordance with its business plan. GlobalX’s ability to pay any fixed costs associated with aircraft lease or purchase contractual obligations will depend on GlobalX’s operating performance, cash flow, its ability to secure adequate financing, whether fuel prices continue at current price levels and/or further increase or decrease, further weakening or improvement in the United States economy, as well as general economic and political conditions and other factors that are, to a large extent, beyond GlobalX’s control.

Our business has grown rapidly, and we may fail to manage our growth effectively.

GlobalX may be subject to growth-related risks including capacity constraints and pressure on its internal systems and controls. The ability of GlobalX to manage growth effectively will require it to continue to implement and improve its operations and financial systems and to expand, train, and manage its employee base. The inability of GlobalX to deal with potential growth could result in a material adverse effect.

Any expansion of operations GlobalX may undertake will entail risks; such actions may involve specific operational activities, which may negatively impact the profitability of GlobalX. Consequently, shareholders must assume the risk that: (i) such expansion may ultimately involve expenditures of funds beyond the resources available to GlobalX at that time; and (ii) management of such expanded operations may divert management’s attention and resources away from any other operations, all of which factors may result in a material adverse effect.

If we fail to implement our business strategy successfully, our business, results of operations and financial condition will be materially adversely affected.

The viability of GlobalX’s business model and its ability to implement this model is dependent on a number of inputs and assumptions, including:

7

Should one or more of these inputs and assumptions be incorrect or fail to occur as anticipated, there is a risk that GlobalX’s business model may not be implemented as anticipated and GlobalX may suffer a material adverse effect.

In addition, in order to successfully implement our growth strategy, we will require access to an additional number of airport gates and other services at airports we currently serve or may seek to serve. We believe there are currently significant restraints on gates and related ground facilities at many of the most heavily utilized airports in the United States. As a result, if we are unable to obtain access to a sufficient number of slots, gates or related ground facilities at desirable airports to accommodate our growing fleet, we may be unable to compete in those markets, our aircraft utilization rate could decrease, and we could suffer a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Our Airport Use Agreement with Miami International Airport does not guarantee availability of boarding gates or landing slots at that airport.

Our reputation and business could be adversely affected in the event of an emergency, accident or similar public incident involving our aircraft or personnel.

A major safety incident involving GlobalX’s aircraft during operations would likely incur substantial repair or replacement costs to the damaged aircraft and a disruption in service. GlobalX could also incur potentially significant claims relating to injured passengers and parties, along with a significant negative impact on GlobalX’s reputation for safety, adversely affecting GlobalX’s ability to attract and retain passengers.

We may face unanticipated obstacles to execution of GlobalX’s business plan.

GlobalX’s business plans may change significantly. The execution of GlobalX’s business plan is capital intensive and may become subject to statutory or regulatory requirements. GlobalX may need to make significant modifications to any of GlobalX’s stated strategies depending on future events.

We may require additional capital, which may not be available on terms acceptable to us or at all.

The ability of GlobalX to execute its build-out and growth strategy and achieve operations will depend on acquiring substantial additional financing through debt financing, equity financing or other means. Failure to obtain such financing may result in the delay or indefinite postponement of such growth strategy or even impact the ability of GlobalX to continue as a going concern.

There can be no assurance that additional capital or other types of financing will be available if needed or that, if available, the terms of such financing will be favorable to GlobalX. If additional financing is raised by GlobalX through the issuance of its securities, shareholders may suffer significant dilution. If additional financing is not available, or if available, not available on satisfactory terms, this could result in a material adverse effect or could require GlobalX to reduce, delay, scale back or eliminate portions of its actual or proposed operations or could prevent GlobalX from continuing as a going concern.

GlobalX may also need to raise capital by incurring long-term or short-term indebtedness in order to fund its business objectives. This could result increased interest expense and decreased net income. Investors are cautioned that there can be no assurance as to the terms of such financing and whether such financing will be available. The level of GlobalX’s indebtedness could impair its ability to obtain additional financing in the future on a timely basis to take advantage of business opportunities that may arise.

We rely on third-party specialists and other commercial partners to perform functions integral to our operations.

GlobalX is expected to secure goods and services from a number of third party suppliers. Any significant interruption in the provision of goods and services from any such key suppliers, some of which would be beyond GlobalX’s control, or any significant increase in price of such goods and services, could have a material adverse effect. GlobalX will be reliant upon providers of aircraft, such as Airbus and other third party leasing companies, which will make GlobalX susceptible to any problems connected with aircraft or engines or

8

components, including defective materials, mechanical problems or negative perceptions in the traveling community. The delay or inability of any provider of aircraft to deliver aircraft or engines or components as GlobalX requires could negatively impact GlobalX’s growth strategy and could result in a material adverse effect.

Our limited fleet size could prevent us from replacing aircraft that face unscheduled maintenance.

Given the limited number of aircraft GlobalX intends to operate, if one or more aircraft becomes unavailable due to unscheduled maintenance, repairs or other reasons, GlobalX could suffer material adverse financial and reputational impacts.

Our business has been and in the future may be materially adversely affected by the price and availability of aircraft fuel. Unexpected increases in the price of aircraft fuel or a shortage or disruption in the supply of aircraft fuel could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

GlobalX will be dependent on fuel to operate its business, and therefore, will be exposed to the risk of volatile fuel prices. Fuel prices are impacted by a host of global actors outside of GlobalX’s control, such as significant weather events, market speculation, geopolitical tensions, refinery capacity, government taxes and levies, and GlobalX demand and supply. GlobalX’s fuel costs are expected to make up one of the largest anticipated expenses of GlobalX. A significant change in the price of fuel would materially affect GlobalX’s projected operating results and growth strategy. A fuel supply shortage or significantly higher fuel prices could result in a curtailment of GlobalX’s planned scheduled service. There can be no assurance that increases in the price of fuel can be offset by fuel surcharges or any potential hedging transactions.

We operate a single aircraft type.

Critical to GlobalX’s business model is a supply of modern and cost-effective aircraft that can service the various sectors required to fly GlobalX’s planned route network. Should the A320 family of aircraft not be available in accordance with GlobalX growth strategy or should the aircraft lease or maintenance costs increase drastically there could be a material impact on GlobalX’s growth strategy, cost structure and potential profitability. In addition, a switch to a different family of aircraft could have a material adverse effect on our cost structure.

A critical cost-saving element of our business strategy is to operate a single-family aircraft fleet; however, our dependence on the A320 family of aircraft for all of our aircraft makes us vulnerable to any design defects or mechanical problems associated with this aircraft type or these engines. In the event of any actual or suspected design defects or mechanical problems with this family of aircraft, whether involving our aircraft or that of another airline, we may choose or be required to suspend or restrict the use of our aircraft. Our business could also be materially adversely affected if the public avoids flying on our aircraft due to an adverse perception of our plane type or engine type, whether because of safety concerns or other problems, real or perceived, or in the event of an accident involving such aircraft or engine.

Our intellectual property rights, particularly our branding rights, are vulnerable, and any inability to protect them may adversely affect our business and financial results.

We consider our intellectual property rights, particularly our branding rights such as our trademark applicable to our airline, to be a significant and valuable aspect of our business. We aim to protect our intellectual property rights through a combination of trademark, copyright and other forms of legal protection, contractual agreements and policing of third-party misuses of our intellectual property, but cannot guarantee that such efforts will be successful. Our failure to obtain or adequately protect our intellectual property or any change in the law that lessens or removes the current legal protections of our intellectual property may diminish our competitiveness and adversely affect our business and financial results. Any litigation or disputes regarding intellectual property may be costly and time-consuming and may divert the attention of our management and key personnel form our business operations, either of which may adversely affect our business and financial results.

Our quarterly results of operations fluctuate due to a number of factors, including seasonality.

The charter airline industry is seasonal. The demand for and the pricing of charter services does fluctuate throughout the year, as it does with most air travel industries. Historically, demand for air travel is higher in the second and third quarters, driving higher revenues, than in the first and fourth quarters, which are periods of lower travel demand. In so much as GlobalX has fixed costs relating to air crews, insurance, leases, rent and other payments, lower periods of demand, combined with lower prices, could lead to negative cash flow and earnings for a given period.

Threatened or actual terrorist attacks or security concerns involving airlines could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

9

The September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks and subsequent terrorist activity have caused uncertainty in the minds of the traveling public. The occurrence of a major terrorist attack or attempted terrorist attack (whether domestic or international and whether involving GlobalX or another carrier or no carrier at all) and additional restrictive security measures that are implemented in response could have a material adverse effect on passenger demand for air travel and on the number of passengers traveling on GlobalX’s flights. It could also lead to a substantial increase in insurance, airport security and other costs. Any resulting reduction in passenger revenues and/or increases in insurance, security or other costs could result in a material adverse effect.

The COVID-19 pandemic and other localized epidemics could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

A widespread outbreak of influenza or any other similarly communicable illness occurring in the United States, Canada, or the Caribbean, or a World Health Organization travel advisory primarily relating to those countries or regions could affect GlobalX’s ability to continue full operations and could materially adversely affect GlobalX’s customer demand for air travel. The current outbreak COVID-19 has led to measures such as “shelter in place” or quarantine requirements, international and domestic travel restrictions or advisories, limitations on public gatherings, social distancing recommendations, remote work arrangements and closures of tourist destinations and attractions, as well as consumer perceptions of the safety, ease and predictability of air travel, and these measures have contributed to a precipitous decline in passenger demand and bookings for both business and leisure travel. The continuation of the COVID-19 pandemic and any future emergence and spread of similar pathogens, could have a material adverse effect on GlobalX due to the impacts of the aforementioned various measures that are implemented in response. This may adversely impact our business and results of operations and the operations of our suppliers, contractors and service providers, and the demand for our passenger charter flights.

General economic conditions may reduce the demand for our services.

The financial success of GlobalX may be sensitive to adverse changes in general economic conditions in the United States such as war, terrorist attacks, recession, inflation, labor disputes, demographic changes, pandemics, weather or climate changes, unemployment and interest rates. Such changing conditions could reduce demand in the marketplace for GlobalX’s services.

We may become involved in litigation that may materially adversely affect us.

GlobalX may be subject to litigation arising out of its operations. Damages claimed under such litigation may be material or may be indeterminate, and the outcome of such litigation may materially impact GlobalX’s business, results of operations, or financial condition. While GlobalX will assess the merits of any lawsuit and defend itself accordingly, it may be required to incur significant expense or devote significant financial resources to defending itself against such litigation. In addition, the adverse publicity surrounding such claims may result in a material adverse effect.

Increased labor costs, union disputes, employee strikes and other labor-related disruption, may adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

GlobalX intends to have a non-unionized workforce. In the event that unionization activities occur with its workforce, GlobalX will incur increased labor costs. Increased labor costs will negatively impact upon GlobalX’s cost structure and will adversely affect GlobalX’s ability to operate an airline.

Many factors could affect our ability to control our costs and to maintain a low cost structure.

We have limited control over many of our costs. For example, we have limited control over the price and availability of aircraft fuel, aviation insurance, airport and related infrastructure taxes, the cost of meeting changing regulatory requirements and our cost to access

capital or financing. We cannot guarantee we will be able to maintain a cost advantage over our future competitors. If our cost structure increases and we are no longer able to maintain a cost advantage over our competitors, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our proposed fuel hedging strategy may not reduce our fuel costs.

There can be no assurance that we will be able to enter into fuel hedge contracts now or in the future. Our liquidity and general level of capital resources impacts our ability to hedge our fuel requirements. Even if we are able to hedge portions of our future fuel requirements, we cannot guarantee that our hedge contracts will provide sufficient protection against increased fuel costs or that our counterparts will be able to perform under our hedge contracts, such as in the case of a counterpart's insolvency. Furthermore, our ability to react to the

10

cost of fuel absent hedging, is limited since we set the price of charters in advance of incurring fuel costs. Our ability to pass on any significant increases in aircraft fuel costs through fare increases could also be limited.

The airline industry is exceedingly competitive, and we compete against new entrants, legacy network airlines and cargo carriers; if we are not able to compete successfully in our markets, our business will be materially adversely affected.

GlobalX faces competition from exclusively charter airlines as well as traditional scheduled-service airlines, both ultra-low cost carriers and legacy carriers, that operate charters as a secondary line of business. In addition, our competitors may choose to commence or expand their existing charter operations, which could adversely impact our ability to obtain or renew charter contracts. This could result in decreases in our charter services market share and reduced profitability for our charter operations, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. All of our competitors have greater financial resources, are larger than us in terms of numbers of aircraft, and are more fully developed in their corporate infrastructure, which could negatively affect our ability to compete and which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

The charter airline industry is particularly susceptible to price discounting when competing for customers. This may be mitigated to a certain extent by the aircraft type, on-board seat comfort levels and amenities GlobalX plans to operate. Nevertheless, price-sensitive charter customers may favor price over comfort, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial performance.

The ultra-competitive nature of the airline industry could prevent us from achieving the performance metrics and milestones in our business plan necessary to sustain profitable operations in new and existing markets and could impede our growth strategy, which could negatively impact our operating results.

Airlines are often affected by factors beyond their control.

Like other airlines, we will be subject to delays caused by factors beyond our control, including air traffic congestion at airports, air traffic control inefficiencies, adverse weather conditions, increased security measures, new travel related taxes and the outbreak of disease. Delays frustrate passengers and increase costs, which in turn could adversely affect profitability. The federal government singularly controls all U.S. airspace, and airlines are completely dependent on the FAA to operate that airspace in a safe, efficient and affordable manner. The U.S. air traffic control system, which is operated by the FAA, faces challenges in managing the growing demand for U.S. air travel. U.S. and foreign air-traffic controllers often rely on outdated technologies that routinely overwhelm the system and compel airlines to fly inefficient, indirect routes resulting in delays. Other countries employ their own air traffic management systems, and similar factors, outside of our control, would exist for our international service to foreign countries. Adverse weather conditions and natural disasters can cause flight cancellations or significant delays. Cancellations or delays due to weather conditions or natural disasters, air traffic control problems, breaches in security or other factors could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition. Similarly, outbreaks of pandemic or contagious diseases, such as avian flu, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and H1N1 (swine) flu, and COVID-19 could result in significant decreases in passenger traffic and the imposition of government restrictions in service and could have a material adverse impact on the airline.

Our business plan is heavily reliant on our ability to primarily base our operations at, and fly out of, Miami International Airport, and if we are unable to secure operating capacity at this airport, our business will be substantially harmed.

Our business plan calls for our operations to be based at MIA, which we expect to be our central hub, with the vast majority of our projected flights consisting of daily round trips departing from and returning to MIA, initially to Havana. If we are unable to secure operating capacity at MIA or Havana either for our initial operations or planned expansion our business will be substantially harmed. And, assuming that we do obtain operating capacity at MIA, there is no guarantee that the fees and other costs related to operating out of MIA will not increase. Our operating performance and results of operations could be harmed by any such increase in fees or costs charged by the airport.

We will rely heavily on technology and automated systems to operate our business and any failure of these technologies or systems or failure by their operators could harm our business.

We will need to put in place a significant amount of information technology and automated systems to operate our business. The functionality and implementation of these systems will be one of the keys to achieving low operating costs. These systems are expected to include a computerized airline reservation system, flight operations system, financial planning, management and accounting systems, telecommunications systems, website, maintenance systems and check-in kiosks. An inability to implement these systems in a timely fashion could result in delays in the start of our operations. In addition, in order for our operations to work efficiently, our website and reservation system will need to be able to accommodate a high volume of traffic, maintain secure information and deliver flight information. Substantially all of our tickets are expected to be issued to passengers as electronic tickets. We intend for our reservation

11

system to be hosted and maintained under a long term contract by a third-party service provider and we plan to rely on this reservation system to issue, track and accept electronic tickets. If we are unable to contract with the third party service provider or otherwise are unable to implement our reservation system or our reservation system fails or experiences interruptions, and we are unable to book seats for any period of time, we could lose a significant amount of revenue as customers book seats on competing airlines.

Unauthorized breach of our information technology infrastructure could compromise the personally identifiable information of our passengers, prospective passengers or personnel and expose us to liability, damage our reputation and have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our anticipated processing, storage, use and disclosure of personal data could give rise to liabilities as a result of government regulation or a significant data breach may adversely affect the Company’s business. In our regular business operations, we collect, transmit, process and store sensitive data, including personal and financial information of our customers and employees such as payment processing information and information of our business partners. GlobalX depends on the ability to use information we collect to provide our services and operate our business.

GlobalX must manage increasing legislative, regulatory and consumer focus on privacy issues and data security. For example, in May 2018, the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation became effective, which imposes significant privacy and data security requirements, as well as potential for substantial penalties for non-compliance. Recent penalties imposed by regulators have resulted in substantial adverse financial consequences to those companies. Also, some of GlobalX’s commercial partners, such as credit card companies, have imposed data security standards that GlobalX must meet. These standards continue to evolve. GlobalX will continue its efforts to meet its privacy and data security obligations; however, it is possible that certain new obligations or customer expectations may be difficult to meet and could increase GlobalX’s costs.

Additionally, GlobalX must manage evolving cybersecurity risks. Our network systems and storage applications, and those systems and storage and other business applications maintained by our third-party providers, may be subject to attempts to gain unauthorized access, breach, malfeasance or other system disruptions. In some cases, it is difficult to anticipate or to detect immediately such incidents and the damage caused thereby. In addition, as attacks by cybercriminals become more sophisticated, frequent and intense, the costs of proactive defense measures may increase. While we continually work to safeguard our internal network systems, including through risk assessments, system monitoring, information security policies and employee awareness and training, and review and validate our third-party security standards, there is no assurance that such actions will be sufficient to prevent cyber-attacks or data breaches.

The loss, disclosure, misappropriation of or access to customers’, employees’ or business partners’ information or GlobalX’s failure to meet its obligations could result in legal claims or proceedings, penalties and remediation costs. A significant data breach or GlobalX’s failure to meet its obligations may adversely affect GlobalX’s reputation, relationships with our business partners, business, operating results and financial condition.

We intend to rely on third-party distribution channels to distribute a portion of our airline tickets, which presents challenges in terms of our ability to maintain a competitive cost structure.

We intend to rely on third-party distribution channels, including those provided by or through global distribution systems or GDSs (e.g., Amadeus, Galileo, Sabre and Worldspan), conventional travel agents and online travel agents or OTAs (e.g., Orbitz, Priceline, Expedia and Travelocity), to distribute a portion of our airline tickets.

These distribution channels are expected to be more expensive than those we intend to operate ourselves. Certain of these distribution channels also are expected to effectively restrict the manner in which we distribute our products generally. To remain competitive, we will need to manage successfully our distribution costs and rights, and improve the functionality of third party distribution channels, while maintaining an industry-competitive cost structure. Negotiations with key GDSs and OTAs designed to manage our costs, increase our distribution flexibility and improve functionality could be contentious, could result in diminished or less favorable distribution of our tickets, and may not provide the functionality we require to maximize ancillary revenues. Any inability to manage our third-party distribution costs, rights and functionality at a competitive level or any material diminishment in the distribution of our tickets could have a material adverse effect on our competitive position and our results of operations.

Failure to comply with applicable environmental regulations could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We expect to be subject to increasingly stringent federal, state, local and foreign laws, regulations and ordinances relating to the protection of the environment, including those relating to emissions to the air, discharges to surface and subsurface waters, safe drinking water, and the management of hazardous substances, oils and waste materials. Compliance with all environmental laws and regulations can require significant expenditures and any future regulatory developments in the U.S. and abroad could adversely affect operations

12

and increase operating costs in the airline industry. For example, climate change legislation was previously introduced in Congress and such legislation could be re-introduced in the future by Congress and state legislatures, and could contain provisions affecting the aviation industry, compliance with which could result in the creation of substantial additional costs to us. Similarly, the Environmental Protection Agency issued a rule that regulates larger emitters of greenhouse gases. Future operations and financial results may vary as a result of such regulations. Compliance with these regulations and new or existing regulations that may be applicable to us in the future could increase our cost base and could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Governmental authorities in several U.S. and foreign cities are also considering or have already implemented aircraft noise reduction programs, including the imposition of nighttime curfews and limitations on daytime take-offs and landings, which could adversely affect our operations going forward, particularly if locally-imposed regulations become more restrictive or widespread.

We have a significant amount of aircraft-related fixed obligations that could impair our liquidity and thereby harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We expect to lease all of our aircraft. Our ability to pay the fixed costs associated with our contractual obligations under these leases will depend on our operating performance and cash flow, which will in turn depend on, among other things, the success of our current business strategy, whether fuel prices continue at current price levels and/or further increase or decrease, further weakening or improving in the U.S. economy, as well as general economic and political conditions and other factors that are, to some extent, beyond our control. The amount of our aircraft related fixed obligations could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Rising maintenance and repair costs could adversely affect cash flow and results of operation.

As we anticipate ordering all new aircraft our initial maintenance costs will in all likelihood be lower at the beginning of the aircraft lease. Our fleet will require more maintenance as it ages and our maintenance and repair expenses for each of our aircraft will likely be incurred at approximately the same intervals. Moreover, because we anticipate that our current fleet will be acquired over a relatively short period, significant maintenance that is scheduled on each of these planes will likely occur at roughly the same time, meaning we will likely incur our most expensive scheduled maintenance obligations, known as heavy maintenance, across our present fleet around the same time. These more significant maintenance activities could result in out-of-service periods during which our aircraft are dedicated to maintenance activities and unavailable to generate revenue. In addition, we anticipate that the terms of our lease agreements will require us to pay supplemental rent, also known as maintenance reserves, to be paid to the lessor in advance of the performance of major maintenance, resulting in our recording significant prepaid deposits on our balance sheet. We expect scheduled and unscheduled aircraft maintenance expenses to increase as a percentage of our revenue over the next several years. Any significant increase in maintenance and repair expenses would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We may face difficulties in recruiting and hiring our workforce.

From time to time, the airline industry has experienced a shortage of personnel licensed by the FAA, especially pilots and mechanics. We expect to compete against the major U.S. and foreign flag airlines for labor in these highly-skilled positions. Major U.S. airlines may offer wage and benefit packages that exceed our wage and benefit packages. If we are unable to hire, train and retain qualified employees at its anticipated costs, we may be unable to successfully execute our business plan. Moreover, in the future, we may have to increase wages and benefits to attract and retain qualified personnel or risk considerable employee turnover.

The airline industry is particularly sensitive to changes in economic conditions.

Negative economic conditions or a recurrence of such conditions would negatively impact our business, results of operations and financial condition. Our business and the airline industry in general are affected by many changing economic conditions beyond our control, including, among others:

13

These factors can adversely affect the results of our operations, our ability to obtain financing on acceptable terms, and our liquidity generally. Unfavorable general economic conditions, such as higher unemployment rates, a constrained credit market, housing-related pressures and increased focus on reducing business operating costs can reduce spending for leisure, visiting friends and relatives, and business travel. For many travelers, in particular the leisure and visiting friends and relatives travelers we serve, air transportation is a discretionary purchase that they can eliminate from their spending in difficult economic times. Unfavorable economic conditions could also affect our ability to raise prices to counteract increased fuel, labor or other costs, resulting in a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Risks associated with our presence in international emerging markets, including political or economic instability, and failure to adequately comply with existing legal requirements, may materially adversely affect us.

Some of our target growth markets include countries with less developed economies, legal systems, financial markets and business and political environments are vulnerable to economic and political disruptions, such as significant fluctuations in gross domestic product, interest and currency exchange rates, civil disturbances, government instability, nationalization and expropriation of private assets, trafficking and the imposition of taxes or other charges by governments. The occurrence of any of these events in markets served by us now or in the future and the resulting instability may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We will emphasize compliance with all applicable laws and regulations and will implement and refresh policies, procedures and certain ongoing training of our employees, third-party specialists and partners with regard to business ethics and key legal requirements; however, we cannot assure you that our employees, third-party specialists or partners will adhere to our code of ethics, other policies or other legal requirements. If we fail to enforce our policies and procedures properly or maintain adequate recordkeeping and internal accounting practices to record our transactions accurately, we may be subject to sanctions. In the event we believe or have reason to believe our employees, third-party specialists or partners have or may have violated applicable laws or regulations, we may incur investigation costs, potential penalties and other related costs which in turn may have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business, results of operations and financial condition.

We face limits on foreign ownership and control.

To comply with restrictions imposed by federal law on foreign ownership of U.S. airlines, we will restrict voting of shares of capital stock by non-U.S. citizens. The restrictions imposed by federal law currently require that no more than 25% of our stock be voted or controlled, directly or indirectly, by persons who are not U.S. citizens and that our president and at least two-thirds of the members of our board of directors be U.S. citizens.

To be considered a U.S. citizen, you must be: (1) individual who is a citizen of the U.S.; (2) a partnership each of whose partners is an individual who is a citizen of the U.S.; or (3) a corporation or association organized under the laws of the U.S. or a state, the District of Columbia, or a territory or possession of the U.S., of which the president and at least two-thirds of the board of directors and other managing officers are citizens of the U.S., which is under the actual control of citizens of the U.S., and in which at least 75 percent of the voting interest is owned and controlled by persons that are citizens of the U.S.

No shares of stock may be voted by or at the direction of non-U.S. citizens unless such shares are registered on a separate stock record, which is referred to as the foreign stock record. Further, no shares of its capital stock will be registered on the foreign stock record if the amount so registered would exceed the foreign ownership restrictions imposed by federal law.

We are subject to extensive regulation by the FAA, the DOT, the TSA, CBP and other U.S. and foreign governmental agencies, compliance with which could cause us to incur increased costs and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Airlines are subject to extensive regulatory and legal compliance requirements, both domestically and internationally, that involve significant costs. In the last several years, Congress has passed laws, and the DOT, FAA and TSA have issued regulations, relating to the operation of airlines that have required significant expenditures. We expect to continue to incur expenses in connection with complying with government regulations. Additional laws, regulations, taxes and airport rates and charges have been proposed from time to time that could significantly increase the cost of airline operations or reduce the demand for air travel. If adopted, these measures could have the effect of raising charter prices, reducing revenue and increasing costs.

We cannot assure you that these and other laws or regulations enacted in the future will not harm our business. Our ability to operate as an airline is dependent on our maintaining certifications issued to us by the DOT and the FAA. The FAA has the authority to issue mandatory orders relating to, among other things, the grounding of aircraft, inspection of aircraft, installation of new safety-related items and removal and replacement of aircraft parts that have failed or may fail in the future. A decision by the FAA to ground, or require

14

time consuming inspections of or maintenance on, our aircraft, for any reason, could negatively affect our business and financial results. Federal law requires that air carriers operating large aircraft be continuously “fit, willing and able” to provide the services for which they are licensed. Our “fitness” is monitored by the DOT, which considers factors such as unfair or deceptive competition, advertising, baggage liability and disabled passenger transportation.

While the DOT has seldom revoked a carrier’s certification for lack of fitness, such an occurrence would render it impossible for us to continue operating as an airline. The DOT may also institute investigations or administrative proceedings against airlines for violations of regulations.

International routes are regulated by treaties and related agreements between the United States and foreign governments. Our ability to operate international routes is subject to change because the applicable arrangements between the United States and foreign governments may be amended from time to time. Our access to new international markets may be limited by our ability to obtain the necessary certificates to fly the international routes. In addition, our operations in foreign countries are subject to regulation by foreign governments and our business may be affected by changes in law and future actions taken by such governments, including granting or withdrawal of government approvals and restrictions on competitive practices. We are subject to numerous foreign regulations in countries outside the United States where we hope to provide service to as a US Flag Carrier. If we are not able to comply with the regulatory regime in such countries, our ability to grow the business could be significantly harmed.

We have limits on our fleet expansion.

We must obtain the approval of the FAA and the DOT to operate aircraft internationally. We intend to apply for the right to fly internationally. This application will be based on a demonstration of our financial and managerial fitness and safety compliance for expanded operations. There can be no assurance that such authorization will be granted. The failure of the FAA and the DOT to grant approval to operate additional aircraft would materially restrict our ability to grow.

Risk Factors Relating to Ownership of Our Common Stock and Class B Non-Voting Common Stock

We do not know whether an active, liquid and orderly market will develop for our common stock or what the market price of our common stock will be, and, as a result, it may be difficult for you to sell your shares of our common stock.

Our common stock currently trades on the OTCQB and NEO and our Class B Non-Voting Common Stock trades on the NEO, each with very limited daily trading volume. The market price of our common stock and our Class B Non-Voting Common Stock may fluctuate significantly in response to numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, including:

Until our common stock is listed on a qualified national securities exchange or our common stock price exceeds $5 per share, our common stock will be considered a “penny stock” and will not qualify for exemption from the “penny stock” restrictions, which may make it more difficult for you to sell your shares.

Our common stock has traded on the OTCQB at a price of less than $5.00 per share and, as a result, is considered a “penny stock” by the SEC and subject to rules adopted by the SEC regulating broker- dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks.” The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define a “penny stock” to be any equity security that is not listed on a qualified national securities exchange and that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, these rules require delivery, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule relating to the penny stock market. Disclosure is also required to be made about current quotations for the securities and commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative. Finally, broker-dealers must send monthly statements to purchasers of penny stocks disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held

15

in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks. As a result of our common stock being subject to the rules on penny stocks, the liquidity of our common stock may be adversely affected.

We will require additional capital in the future and raising additional capital may cause dilution to our existing stockholders, restrict our operations or require us to relinquish rights to our business assets.

We will require additional capital in the future and we may seek additional capital through a combination of public and private equity offerings, debt financing, working capital lines of credit and potential licenses and collaboration agreements. We, and indirectly, our stockholders, will bear the cost of issuing and servicing such securities. Because our decision to issue debt or equity securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing or nature of any future offerings. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or debt securities, your ownership interest will be diluted, and the terms may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect your rights as a stockholder. The occurrence of indebtedness would result in increased fixed payment obligations and could involve restrictive covenants, such as limitations on our ability to incur additional debt, limitations on our ability to acquire additional aircraft and other operating restrictions that could adversely impact our ability to conduct our business. Additionally, any future collaborations we enter into with third parties may provide capital in the near term but limit our potential cash flow and revenue in the future.

If securities analysts do not publish research or reports about our business or if they publish negative evaluations of our stock, the price of our stock could decline.

The trading market for our common stock and our Class B Non-Voting Common Stock will rely in part on the research and reports that industry or financial analysts publish about us or our business. We do not currently have and may never obtain research coverage by industry or financial analysts. If no or few analysts commence coverage of us, the trading price of our stock could decrease. Even if we do obtain analyst coverage, if one or more of the analysts covering our business downgrade their evaluations of our stock, the price of our stock could decline. If one or more of these analysts cease to cover our stock, we could lose visibility in the market for our stock and our Class B Non-Voting Common Stock, which in turn could cause our stock price to decline.

Insiders will continue to have substantial influence over us, which could limit your ability to affect the outcome of key transactions, including a change of control.

Our directors, executive officers, holders of more than 5% of our outstanding stock and their respective affiliates will beneficially own shares representing approximately 31% of our outstanding common stock and the total voting power of our capital stock. As a result, these stockholders, if they act together, will be able to influence our management and affairs and all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. This concentration of ownership may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of our company and might affect the market price of our common stock and our Class B Non-Voting Common Stock.

We will register the shares of common stock issuable under our equity compensation plans and the sale of such shares could affect our market price. If any of these additional shares are sold, or if it is perceived that they will be sold, in the public market, the market price of our common stock could decline.

Our corporate charter and bylaws include provisions limiting voting and ownership by non-U.S. citizens.

To comply with restrictions imposed by federal law on foreign ownership of U.S. airlines, our certificate of incorporation and bylaws restrict voting of shares of our common stock by non-U.S. citizens. The restrictions imposed by federal law currently require that no more than 24.9% of our stock be voted, directly or indirectly, by persons who are not U.S. citizens, that no more than 49.9% of our outstanding stock be owned (beneficially or of record) by persons who are not U.S. citizens and that our president and at least two-thirds of the members of our board of directors and senior management be U.S. citizens. Our amended and restated bylaws provide that the failure of non-U.S. citizens to register their shares on a separate stock record, which we refer to as the “foreign stock record,” would result in a suspension of their voting rights in the event that the aggregate foreign ownership of the outstanding common stock exceeds the foreign ownership restrictions imposed by federal law. Our bylaws also provide that any transfer or issuance of our stock that would cause the amount of our stock owned by persons who are not U.S. citizens to exceed foreign ownership restrictions imposed by federal law will be void and of no effect.

Our bylaws further provide that no shares of our common stock will be registered on the foreign stock record if the amount so registered would exceed the foreign ownership restrictions imposed by federal law. If it is determined that the amount registered in the foreign stock record exceeds the foreign ownership restrictions imposed by federal law, shares will be removed from the foreign stock record in reverse chronological order based on the date of registration therein, until the number of shares registered therein does not exceed the foreign ownership restrictions imposed by federal law. We are currently in compliance with these ownership restrictions.

16

We are an “emerging growth company” and a “smaller reporting company” and the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies may make our common stock less attractive to investors.

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act. For so long as we remain an emerging growth company, we are permitted and plan to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies. These exemptions include, but are not limited to: (i) exemption from compliance with the auditor attestation requirements pursuant to SOX; (ii) exemption from compliance with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements; (iii) reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements; and (iv) exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

We will continue to remain an emerging growth company until the earliest of the following: (i) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the completion of our offering; (ii) the last day of the fiscal year in which our total annual gross revenue is equal to or more than $1.07 billion; (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in nonconvertible debt during the previous three years; or (iv) the date on which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer under the rules of the SEC.

In addition, we are currently a “smaller reporting company,” as defined in the Exchange Act and have elected to take advantage of certain of the scaled disclosures available to smaller reporting companies. To the extent that we continue to qualify as a “smaller reporting company” as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, after we cease to qualify as an emerging growth company, certain of the exemptions available to us as an “emerging growth company” may continue to be available to us as a “smaller reporting company,” including exemption from compliance with the auditor attestation requirements pursuant to SOX and reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements. We will continue to be a “smaller reporting company” until we have $250 million or more in public float (based on our outstanding capital stock) measured as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter or, in the event we have no public float (based on our outstanding capital stock) or a public float (based on our outstanding capital stock) that is less than $700 million, annual revenues of $100 million or more during the most recently completed fiscal year.

As a result, the information we provide stockholders will be different than the information that is available with respect to other public companies. We have not included all of the executive compensation related information that would be required if we were not an emerging growth company, nor have we included all of the quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk that would be required if we were not a smaller reporting company. We cannot predict whether investors will find our stock less attractive if we rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our stock, and our stock price may be more volatile.

In addition, the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. This allows an emerging growth company to delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have opted to take advantage of this extended transition period for the adoption of certain accounting standards.

We will incur increased costs as a result of operating as a public company, and our management will be required to devote substantial time to new compliance initiatives and corporate governance practices.

As a public company, and particularly after we are no longer an emerging growth company, we will incur significant legal, accounting, and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. SOX, the Dodd- Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, the listing requirements of Nasdaq, and other applicable securities rules and regulations impose various requirements on public companies, including establishment and maintenance of effective disclosure and financial controls and corporate governance practices. We expect that we will need to hire additional accounting, finance, and other personnel in connection with our efforts to comply with the requirements of being, a public company, and our management and other personnel will need to devote a substantial amount of time towards maintaining compliance with these requirements. These requirements will increase our legal and financial compliance costs and will make some activities more time- consuming and costly. For example, we expect that the rules and regulations applicable to us as a public company may make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, which could make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified members of our board of directors. We are currently evaluating these rules and regulations and cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs. These rules and regulations are often subject to varying interpretations, in many cases due to their lack of specificity, and, as a result, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory and governing bodies. This could result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and higher costs necessitated by ongoing revisions to disclosure and governance practices.

17

Pursuant to Section 404 of SOX, we are required to furnish a report by our management on our internal control over financial reporting on Form 10-K with the SEC. However, while we remain an emerging growth company or smaller reporting company, we will not be required to include an attestation report on internal control over financial reporting issued by our independent registered public accounting firm. To achieve compliance with Section 404 of SOX within the prescribed period, we will be engaged in a process to document and evaluate our internal control over financial reporting, which is both costly and challenging. In this regard, we will need to continue to dedicate internal resources, potentially engage outside consultants, adopt a detailed work plan to assess and document the adequacy of internal control over financial reporting, continue steps to improve control processes as appropriate, validate through testing that controls are functioning as documented, and implement a continuous reporting and improvement process for internal control over financial reporting. Despite our efforts, there is a risk that we will not be able to conclude, within the prescribed timeframe or at all, that our internal control over financial reporting is effective as required by Section 404 of SOX. If we identify one or more material weaknesses, it could result in an adverse reaction in the financial markets due to a loss of confidence in the reliability of our financial statements.

We do not expect to pay any dividends for the foreseeable future. Investors may never obtain a return on their investment.

You should not rely on an investment in our stock to provide dividend income. We do not anticipate that we will pay any dividends to holders of our common stock or Class B Non-Voting Common Stock in the foreseeable future. Instead, we plan to retain any earnings to maintain and expand our existing operations. In addition, any future credit facility we enter into, or debt instrument that we issue, may contain terms prohibiting or limiting the amount of dividends that may be declared or paid on our common stock or Class B Non-Voting Common Stock. Accordingly, investors must rely on sales of their common stock or Class B Non-Voting Common Stock after price appreciation, which may never occur, as the only way to realize any return on their investment. As a result, investors seeking cash dividends should not purchase our common stock or Class B Non-Voting Common Stock.

Holders of Class B Non-Voting Common Stock have no voting rights. As a result, holders of Class B Non- Voting Common Stock will not have any ability to influence stockholder decisions.

Class B Non-Voting Common Stockholders have no voting rights, unless required by Delaware law. As a result, all matters submitted to stockholders will be decided by the vote of holders of the common stock. Unlike holders of voting shares, holders of nonvoting shares cannot vote on: (1) the election or removal of directors; (2) the approval of extraordinary transactions, such as mergers, (3) significant asset sales, or dissolution, (4) amendments to the certificate of incorporation, which is the legal document setting forth the terms of each class of stock, except that holders of nonvoting shares are entitled to vote on amendments that would (a) unless otherwise provided in the certificate of incorporation, increase or decrease the aggregate number of authorized shares, (b) increase or decrease the par value of the shares, or (c) adversely alter or change the powers, preferences, or special rights of the shares; and (5) other corporate governance matters, including say-on-pay votes and bylaw amendments put to a stockholder vote.

Our disclosure controls and procedures may not prevent or detect all errors or acts of fraud.

We will become subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to reasonably assure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act are accumulated and communicated to management, and recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. We believe that any disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls and procedures, no matter how well-conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.

These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by an unauthorized override of the controls. Accordingly, because of the inherent limitations in our control system, misstatements or insufficient disclosures due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

18

The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of their business. We believe that our current proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity or results of operations. We record a liability when a loss is considered probable, and the amount can be reasonably estimated.

Current Proceedings

On October 1, 2021, GEM Yield Bahamas Limited (“GEM”) commenced an action in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County Of New York against the Company (the “GEM Litigation”). GEM claims the Company breached a May 4, 2020 promissory note (the “Note”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to make certain payments to GEM in an aggregate amount of CDN $2,000,000 (the “Fee”) in consideration for GEM and GEM Global Yield LLC SCS (collectively the “GEM Parties”) entering into a share subscription agreement (the “SSA”) providing for the GEM Parties to purchase up to CDN$100,000,000 worth of common shares in the Company upon the occurrence of certain events. GEM claims that the Company failed to pay the first installment of the Fee on May 4, 2021 as due and that the full CDN$2,000,000 of the Fee is accelerated and due now.

The Company claims that the GEM Parties breached the SSA by, among other things, selling the Company’s common shares when prohibited from doing so pursuant to the SSA, as part of a stock manipulation scheme, and that such breach excuses the Company from paying the Fee. The Company is opposing the relief GEM seeks and cross-moving to stay the GEM Litigation on several bases including that (i) the parties agreed to arbitrate any dispute, (ii) GEM’s suit is procedurally improper, and (iii) the GEM Parties’ breach of the SSA excuses the Company from paying the Fee. The Company’s opposition papers were filed on November 19, 2021, at which point GEM had an opportunity to file reply papers. On January 18, 2023 the Court granted summary judgment in favor of GEM. GEM subsequently filed a motion seeking $2,000,000 CAD, plus interest totaling $218,493.87, with an additional $506.02 accruing each day after January 30, 2023 until entry of judgment. GEM also seeks $112,584.50 in attorneys fees and $4,884.86 in costs. GlobalX has contested these costs and awaits final judgment to be filed. GlobalX is evaluating its options which do include filing an appeal.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this report.

Business Overview

Global Crossing Airlines Group Inc. operates a US Part 121 domestic flag and supplemental airline using the Airbus A320 family of aircraft. GlobalX’s business model is to (1) provide services on an Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance and Insurance using wet lease contracts to airlines and non-airlines, and (2) on a Full Service basis whereby we provide passenger aircraft charter services to customers by charging an “all-in” fee that includes fuel, insurance, landing fees, navigation fees and most other operational fees and costs. GlobalX operates within the United States, Europe, Canada, Central and South America. GlobalX began operating the Airbus A321 freighter during the first quarter of 2023 after completing all FAA certification requirements with the A321F.

Focused on becoming a Market leader with differentiated, value-creating solutions

GlobalX intends to become the best-in-class U.S. narrow-body, ACMI charter airline, operating both passenger and cargo charter aircraft while recruiting and maintaining a dynamic team of customer-centric flight crews, ground and maintenance teams and management staff.

GlobalX operates its A320 family aircraft for airlines, tour operators, college and professional sports teams, incentive groups, resorts and casino groups and government agencies. It is our goal to deliver best in class on time performance and dispatch reliability; Expand existing relationships and develop additional relationships with leading charter/our operators to provide aircraft during their peak seasons; and provide ad-hoc and track charter programs for non-airline customers, including hotels, casinos, cruise ship companies, tour operators.

Cargo charter flights with A321P2F (Passenger to Freighter)

GlobalX added A321F (passenger to freighter) aircraft to its operating certificate and into the fleet during Q1 2023, and cargo is an integral part of the GlobalX business. GlobalX operates its A321Fs under ACMI charter operations with major package operators and major freight and logistics companies. Under these arrangements, customarily, these operators will take the commercial risk associated with the selling of the cargo and provide all ground handling and cargo-specific operations, with GlobalX assuming the operational risk of providing a functional aircraft, trained crew, in a safe and on time manner as the ACMI operator.

Location of Operations Bases

GlobalX will initially operate from one primary geographic base:

GlobalX also maintains two additional crew bases at the following locations:

Reducing Operational Costs

To control costs and maintain a competitive cost per Block Hour flown, GlobalX:

21

Marketing Plan

GlobalX plans to achieve its revenue goals by flying charter operations for a variety of client groups:

GlobalX Aircraft Fleet

Critical to GlobalX’s business model is a fleet of modern and cost-effective aircraft. To achieve this objective, GlobalX has selected what it believes is the best overall single-aisle aircraft family to operate. This approach differs from traditional airlines, which purchase a variety of aircraft, often from different manufacturers, to achieve their operational flight sectors, resulting in increased training, operating and spare part costs. GlobalX conducted research to determine the best aircraft to fly in competition with other narrow-body charter airlines in the single-aisle seat market and GlobalX selected the A320 aircraft family.

The following factors support GlobalX’s choice to operate the Airbus A320 and A321 aircraft versus the Boeing family of aircraft:

Cost and Operating factors: lower fuel burn, and better aircraft and cockpit crew pool availability.

Operational Capability: the A320 has a range advantage over the 737-800 and can fly non-stop from Miami to selected airports in North America, South America, the Caribbean, and between most major destinations in Europe. The A320 has excellent maintenance dispatch reliability and strong availability of spare parts and components, making the A320, in management’s estimation, the most popular aircraft among low-cost airlines.

Passenger comfort: better seat width, cargo bin volume for carry-on baggage and cargo hold volume.

Aircraft Maintenance

Heavy maintenance checks are expected to be sourced out to FAA-approved service providers. The "6Y" and "12Y" checks will be primarily paid for using funds from the accrued maintenance reserves paid to lessors under operating leases.

Strategy to Address Competitive Response

We expect the existing charter operators based in the U.S. to respond to GlobalX’s entry into the market by lowering their pricing to customers. The expected competitive response typically includes lowered ACMI rates for key contracts. We believe GlobalX’s existing relationships with potential customers and the underserved demand in the U.S., coupled with our newer planes allowing for a more cost-efficient operation, will allow us to address any competitive pressure and grow as anticipated.

GlobalX Charter Service

GlobalX is a charter provider that currently focuses exclusively on providing customized, non-scheduled passenger air transport services with narrow-body Airbus A320 and A321 aircraft. Our primary line of business and focus is commercial charter services from MIA to destinations throughout North and South America and the Caribbean, with established scheduled airlines that need additional air lift to supplement their own, and established tour and travel operators that sell tour packages in and between these markets.

We provide our services through two contract structures: (1) ACMI and (2) Charter

We believe operating charter flights will largely insulate our expected profitability from fluctuations in jet fuel prices, which are typically the largest and most volatile expense for an air carrier. Under the vast majority of our commercial passenger charter arrangements, our

22

customers bear 100% of the cost of jet fuel. In addition, consistent with industry practice, we plan for those customers to pay us our contract price approximately two weeks in advance of their flights.

Because we expect that our ACMI customers would be responsible for fuel costs, our expected commercial ACMI revenues would not be affected directly by fuel price changes. However, a significant increase in fuel prices would likely have an adverse effect on demand for the use of our aircraft, which could have a material adverse effect on our profitability and financial position.

Experienced management team

Our management team has extensive operating and leadership experience in the airfreight, airline, and aircraft leasing, maintenance, and management industries at companies such as Republic Airways, Eastern Airlines, JetBlue Airways, Virgin America, Hawaiian Airlines, American Airlines, US Airways, Atlas Air, Breeze Airways, Emirates, North American Airlines, Miami Air, AAR, Continental Airlines, Pan Am, Atlantic Coast Airlines, and Flair Airlines, as well as the United States Army, and Air Force. In addition, our management team has a diversity of experience from other industries at companies such as KBR, Teladoc, The Home Depot, Halliburton, Lehman Brothers, and the Burger King Corporation.

Business Strategy

GlobalX seeks to become the best-in-class U.S. narrow-body, ACMI and Full Contract charter airline, operating both passenger and cargo charter aircraft while recruiting and maintaining a dynamic team of customer-centric flight crews, ground teams and management staff.

In launching a US 121 Flag and Supplemental charter airline in the United States, GlobalX has done, or plans to do, the following:

Operate passenger charter flights with A320/A321 all passenger aircraft

GlobalX operates its A320 family aircraft under ACMI/Full Contract charter operations for major airlines, tour operators, college and professional sports teams, incentive groups, major resorts and casino groups.

Operate cargo charter flights with A321P2F (Passenger to Freighter)

GlobalX added A321F (passenger to freighter) aircraft to its operating certificate and into the fleet during Q1 2023. Cargo is an important revenue stream for airlines and it is an integral part of the GlobalX operation.

GlobalX intends to operate its A321Fs under ACMI/Wet Lease charter operations with major package operators and major freight and logistics companies. Under these arrangements, customarily, these operators will take the commercial risk associated with the selling of the cargo capacity and provide all ground handling and cargo-specific operations, with GlobalX assuming the operational risk of providing a functional aircraft, trained crew, in a safe and on time manner as the ACMI operator.

Business Developments

Our results for 2021 and 2022 were impacted by the following:

Years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021

Operating Statistics

The following table compares our Operating Fleet (average aircraft equivalents during the period) and total Block Hours operated:

Fleet & Block Hours

Operating Revenue

The following table compares our Operating Revenue (in dollars):

Operating revenue increased $82.8 million or 579.5% due to a full year of revenue operations in 2022. Block Hours increased 6,987, or 416%, also as a direct result of delivery of aircraft during 2022 and of full year of revenue in 2022.

Maintenance, materials and repairs increased by $3.5 million, or 426%, driven by full year of revenue service in 2022.

Depreciation and amortization increased by $575 thousand, or 1,677%, driven by assets acquired to support our FAA certification and of full year of revenue service in 2022.

Contracted ground and aviation services increased by $12.3 million, or 368%, driven by full year of revenue service in 2022.

Travel increased $4.1 million, or 423%, driven by full year of revenue service in 2022 and by efforts required to gain our FAA certification.

Insurance increased $1.9 million, or 109%, driven by the delivery of aircraft during 2022 and full year of revenue service in 2022.

Other increased by $2.4 million, or 32%, driven by full year of revenue service in 2022, the delivery of aircraft during 2022, and FAA certification.

Non-operating Expenses (Income)

The following table compares our Non-operating Expenses (Income) :

Loss (Gain) on Warrant Valuation decreased $2.6 million driven by the reclassification of warrants during 2021 from a liability to equity.

Unrealized Loss (Gain) on Financial Instruments decreased $250 thousand driven by foreign exchange impacts.

Other non-operating expenses increased by $ 3 million due to the write off the deferred costs incurred in connection with GEM line of credit, as discussed in note 9 of the consolidated financial statements.

Interest expense, net increased $1.6 million driven mainly by the interest in the debentures issued in 2022.

Income From Discontinued Operations decreased by $178 thousand dollars as a result of the spin-off of Canada Jetlines.

Income taxes. Our effective income tax rates were 0% for 2022 and 2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The most significant liquidity events during 2022 were as follows:

25

Operating Activities. For 2022, Net cash used in operating activities decreased from $10.8 million to $6.9 million, consisting primarily of $15.8 million of Net Loss, $1.9 million of increase in Accounts receivable, $1.3 million of increase in Prepaid expenses and other current assets, and $3.5 million of increase in Operating lease obligations. These were partially offset by noncash adjustments of $6.0 million for depreciation and amortization of fixed assets, operating lease right of use assets and debt issue costs, $1.4 million for Share-based payments, $9.3 million of Accounts payable and Accrued and other liabilities, and $219.8 thousand of Bad debt expense.

For 2021, Net cash used for investing activities was $652.7 thousand, consisting of $652.7 thousand of Purchases of property and equipment.

Financing Activities. For 2022, net cash provided by financing activities decreased from $18.9 million to $6.2 million, consisting primarily of $5.9 million of Note Payable, and $802.3 thousand in Proceeds from issuance of units, partially offset by $501.2 thousand in Principal payments of finance leases. For 2021, net cash provided by financing activities was $18.9 million, which primarily reflected $19.0 million in Proceeds from issuance of units.

We may access external sources of capital from time to time depending on our cash requirements, assessments of current and anticipated market conditions, and the after-tax cost of capital. Our access to capital markets can be adversely impacted by prevailing economic conditions and by financial, business and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. Additionally, our borrowing costs are affected by market conditions and may be adversely impacted by a tightening in credit markets.

We do not expect to pay any significant U.S. federal income tax in 2022.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Global Crossing Airlines Group Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Global Crossing Airlines Group Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two year period ended December 31, 2022, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two year period ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has a working capital deficiency and retained deficit as of December 31, 2022. Management’s evaluation of the events and conditions and management’s plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
