Equipment Leases
The Company leases equipment to third parties, primarily through Contrail. Leases for aircraft and engines to aviation customers typically have terms ranging from 1 and 4 years under operating lease agreements. The Company depreciates aircraft and engines on a straight-line basis over the assets' useful life from the acquisition date to an estimated residual value.
For the assets currently on lease, there are no options for the lessees to purchase the assets at the end of the lease term. Depreciation expense relating to equipment leases during the nine months ended December 31, 2025 was $0.7 million, and wasimmaterial during the three months ended December 31, 2025. Depreciation expense relating to equipment leases for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2024 was $0.6 million and $0.9 million, respectively.
Future minimum undiscounted rental payments to be received do not include contingent rentals that may be received under certain leases because amounts are based on usage. Earned contingent rent on equipment leases totaled approximately $0.5 million during the nine months ended December 31, 2025, and wasimmaterial during the three months ended December 31, 2025. Earned contingent rent on equipment leases during both the three and nine months ended December 31, 2024 totaled approximately $0.7 million.
Office leases
The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Wolfe Lake, leases offices to third parties with lease terms between 5 and 29 years under operating lease agreements. For the offices currently on lease, there are no options for the lessees to purchase the spaces at the end of the leases. Our contractual obligations for offices currently on lease can include termination and renewal options. We utilize the reasonably certain threshold criteria in determining which options our customers will exercise. The Company depreciates the assets on a straight-line basis over the assets' useful life. During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, depreciation expense relating to office leases wasimmaterial.
For each of the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized rental and other revenues related to operating lease payments of $0.4 million, of which variable lease payments were $0.2 million. For each of the nine months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized rental and other revenues related to operating lease payments of $1.3 million, of which variable lease payments were $0.5 million and $0.6 million, respectively. Future minimum rental payments to be received do not include variable lease payments that may be received under certain leases because amounts are based on usage. The following table sets forth the undiscounted cash flows for future minimum base rents to be received from customers for office leases in effect as of December 31, 2025:

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

- Financing Arrangements
Borrowings of the Company and its subsidiaries are summarized below at December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025, respectively.
In connection with the acquisition of Royal on May 15, 2025, the Air'Zona, CSA, GGS, MAC, WASI, Worthington, Jet Yard, Jet Yard Solutions, and Royal ("the Alerus Loan Parties") under the Revolving Credit Agreement with Alerus entered into Amendment No. 4 to Credit Agreement and Consent and Term Loan C with Alerus in the amount of $1.1 million. The purpose of the Amendment and Term Note was to provide a term loan to finance the full purchase price of the acquisition, to add Royal as an Alerus Loan Party to the Alerus credit agreement, as amended and to memorialize Alerus’ consent to the Royal acquisition. The new term loan matures May 15, 2030 and bears interest at the greater of 5.00% or the CME one-month term SOFR rate plus 2.25%. Monthly payments on Term Note C commenced June 15, 2025 and are equal to $12.5 thousand plus accrued interest. The term loan is secured by the terms of the Security Agreement dated as of August 29, 2024.
On May 30, 2025, the Company, along with AAM 24-1 (the "Issuer"), entered into new transaction documents withtwo Institutional Investors that replaced the Second Note Purchase Agreement ("Second NPA") transaction documents. Pursuant to the Third Note Purchase Agreement ("Third NPA") with the Institutional Investors, the Issuer agreed to issue and sell a Multiple Advance Senior Secured Note in an aggregate principal amount of up to $100.0 million (the “Multiple Advance Note”). For purposes of clarity and the avoidance of doubt, as of the closing date, the Institutional Investors advanced an additional $10.0 million to the Issuer and have collectively advanced under the Multiple Advance Note to the Issuer the aggregate amount of $40.0 million. Provided no default or event of default of the Issuer exists, and subject to satisfaction of all requirements for any closing as set forth in the Third NPA, the Investors are obligated to advance to the Issuer an additional aggregate $60.0 million in $10.0 million increments, each on or within fifteen days of the following dates:
| September 30, 2025 | $10.0 million |
|---|---|
| January 30, 2026 | $10.0 million |
| May 30, 2026 | $10.0 million |
| September 30, 2026 | $10.0 million |
| January 30, 2027 | $10.0 million |
| May 30, 2027 | $10.0 million |
The Multiple Advance Note bears annual interest at a rate of 8.5% which is computed on the basis of a 30/360-day year and actual days elapsed and is payable semi-annually in arrears, pursuant to the terms of the Multiple Advance Note. The maturity date of the Multiple Advance Note is May 31, 2035. The Multiple Advance Note contains standard and customary events of default including, but not limited to, failure to make payments when due under the Multiple Advance Note, failure to comply with certain covenants contained in the Multiple Advance Note, or bankruptcy or insolvency of, or certain monetary judgments against the Issuer or the Company. The prior notes were cancelled and replaced by the Multiple Advance Note. Funds advanced under the Multiple Advance Note may be reinvested for a period ofsix years from the date of closing.
The Issuer may prepay all or a portion of the outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest at any time, provided that (i) if the Issuer prepays all or any portion of the Multiple Advance Note withinone year from the Issue Date, the Issuer is required to pay the Investors a prepayment premium equal to 2.0% of the amount being prepaid, and (ii) if the Issuer prepays all or any portion of the Multiple Advance Note after the first anniversary of the Issue Date but on or prior to the second anniversary of the Issue Date, the Issuer is required to pay the Investors a prepayment premium equal to 1.0% of the amount being prepaid. If the Issuer elects to prepay a portion of the outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest, then in no event can such prepayment be for an amount less than $1.0 million.
The various equity interests that were assigned by the Company to the Issuer on or about the closing date of the original financings continue to serve as collateral for the repayment of the Multiple Advance Note as do all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Issuer owned by the Company, and the 320,000 Trust Preferred Securities, held by the Issuer.
On September 3, 2025, the Alerus Loan Parties under the Revolving Credit Agreement with Alerus entered into Amendment No. 5 to Credit Agreement, the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Note, and the Amended and Restated Term Note A.
Pursuant to Amendment No. 5 to Credit Agreement, the Overline Note provisions and note were eliminated.
Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Note, the revolving credit commitment to make revolving credit loans and to issue letters of credit was increased to an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $20.0 million. The interest rate on the Revolving Credit Note was decreased to the greater of 5.00% or 1-month SOFR plus 1.90%. The maturity date was extended to August 28, 2027. The financial covenants are to be measured semi-annually at December and March of each year and the Alerus Loan Parties are to deliver quarterly financial statements to Alerus.
Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Term Note A, Term Note A was amended and restated by the Alerus Loan Parties in the principal amount of $9.2 million. The maturity date remains August 15, 2029. The Term Note A interest rate was revised to 1-month SOFR plus 2.00%.
Pursuant to Amendment No. 5 to Credit Agreement, the Alerus Loan Parties must maintain a debt service coverage ratio of at least 1.25 to 1.00 measured on December 31 and March 31 of each year and a leverage ratio not to exceed 3.00 to 1.00 measured annually on March 31.
On November 24, 2025, Air T Acquisition 22.1, LLC ("ATA 22.1") entered into a $6.0 million term loan with Alerus. The loan proceeds were used to repay amounts due on the $3.5 million term loan from Bridgewater Bank. The new term loan is due on or before November 24, 2032 and has an interest rate of the greater of 5.00% or 1-month SOFR plus 1.90%. Interest on the outstanding principal amount of the loan is due on the 15th day of each month and annual principal payments are due on September 30th of each year, commencing September 2026. The loan may be prepaid at any time without penalty. The loan is secured by all the assets and membership interests of ATA 22.1 and 200,000 shares of TruPs owned by ATA 22.1, as well as an investment account of Air T. Events of default of the loan are enumerated in the loan agreement, including, among other events, the failure to pay an amount due timely or a change of control transaction. The loan requires ATA 22.1 to maintain marketable securities pledged as collateral in an amount that is at all times not less than the outstanding principal amount of the term loan, measured as of the end of each calendar month. Additional covenants include: (i) affirmative covenants such as notice, reporting and financial statement delivery requirements, inspection rights, compliance with environmental laws, performance of contracts and a liquidity requirement of not less than $0.4 million; and, (ii) negative covenants such as a limitation on debt and liens, merger or change of control and limitations on investments, dispositions, sales/leasebacks, restricted payments, prepayments or amendments of debt and transactions with affiliates and restrictive agreements.
On November 24, 2025, Contrail entered into a Master Loan Agreement and Supplement No. 1 to Master Loan Agreement (collectively the “Master Loan Agreement”) with Alerus. The agreement provides for a $15.0 million revolving loan facility that is evidenced by a Promissory Note Revolving Note dated November 24, 2025 in the principal amount of $15.0 million. The funds are to be used for the purchases of engines and working capital needs. The revolving loan carries interest at the rate of 1-month SOFR plus 3.11% and the loan requires payments of interest only until maturity at November 24, 2027. There is no penalty on prepayment and the loan includes a 30 day resting period requirement if Contrail’s debt service coverage ratio exceeds 1.25 to 1.00, at any time during each annual period ending on the anniversary of the date of the revolving loan. The loan contains normal and customary default provisions and is secured by a security interest in all of Contrail’s assets. In addition, the loan is secured by a payment guaranty of Air T, in an aggregate amount not to exceed $2.0 million plus collection and collateral recovery costs. The Master Loan Agreement contains additional terms regarding the transaction, including affirmative covenants such as maintaining, as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, a quarterly rolling cash flow coverage ratio of not less than 1.25 to 1.00; maintaining a tangible net worth of at least $15.0 million at all times; a requirement related to the delivery of annual audited and quarterly unaudited financial statements of Contrail and Air T; the right to inspect, examine and appraise collateral; insurance requirements as well as negative covenants such as making restricted payments other than permitted redemptions, indebtedness, mergers and acquisitions, investments, lines of business and transactions with affiliates as well as change of control restrictions.
On December 15, 2025, the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary Air T Acquisition 25.1, LLC ("ATA 25.1"), entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) withtwo Institutional Investors (the "Investors"), which Investors had previously entered into the Third Note Purchase Agreement with the Company. Pursuant to the Agreement, ATA 25.1 issued to the Investors a 11.5% Senior Secured Note due December 15, 2031 in the aggregate principal amount of $40.0 million (the “Investor Note”). The loan proceeds were made immediately available to ATA 25.1’s wholly-owned subsidiary Air T Lending 25.1, LLC, (“ATL 25.1”) and used to provide financing to Rex pursuant to the Syndicated Loan Note Subscription Agreement – Project Mustang dated December 17, 2025 between and among ATL 25.1, Rex and additional parties (the “New Cap Note Facility”). The New Cap Note Facility provides a A$50.0 million line of credit, matures on December 15, 2030, and bears interest at 12.0% per annum. Interest on the New Cap Note Facility must be paid equally between cash and capitalization (i.e., paid-in-kind through the issuance of additional debt), during the initial period, as defined in the Intercreditor Deed (i.e., the period commencing on December 17, 2025 and ending on the earlier of the date the applicable availability period in the New Facility Agreement (as defined below) has ended and the facilities under such loan agreement are fully drawn). Interest under the New Cap Note Facility is first payable on December 31, 2025, and such interest is payable quarterly thereafter. The New Cap Note Facility further permits the Rex Companies to incur other unsecured financial indebtedness up to an aggregate limit of A$10.0 million.
Interest on the Investor Note accrues commencing on April 10, 2026 at the rate of 11.5% per annum on the basis of a 30/360-day year (and actual days elapsed) and is payable quarterly in arrears. The Investor Note matures on December 15, 2031 and may not be prepaid, in whole or in part, prior to June 15, 2027 unless the prepayment premium specified therein has been paid. The Investor Note is secured by a pledge of all equity interests of ATA 25.1 and is guaranteed by the Company, which guarantee generally covers 25% of principal and interest due under the Investor Note and related documents. The Agreement includes customary covenants and events of default and restricts, among other things, change of control transactions, dividends and other restricted payments by ATA 25.1.
In connection with the Investor Note, the Company, ATA 25.1, Air T Rex, as defined in Note 2, and the Investors entered into a Contingent Payment Agreement that provides the Investors with the right to receive up to A$8.0 million (the "Maximum Contingent Payment Amount") of contingent payments after the Investor Note has been repaid in full, based on the gross revenues of Air T Rex and its direct and indirect subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. Upon full repayment of the Investor Note, ATA 25.1 shall pay the Investors contingent payments equal to 0.5% of the aggregate gross revenue of Air T Rex and its direct and indirect subsidiaries for each fiscal year beginning with the year the Investor Note has been repaid in full and continuing until the Investors have received an aggregate of the Maximum Contingent Payment Amount. Each annual payment is capped at A$2.0 million, with any excess above the cap treated as a rollover amount that carries forward to subsequent years until the Maximum Contingent Payment amount is reached. The Company determined the fair value of the Contingent Payment Agreement using a Monte Carlo simulation to estimate the potential contingent payments. As of December 31, 2025, the carrying value of the Contingent Payment Agreement was $1.1 million.
On December 17, 2025, as part of the Company's acquisition of Rex, further discussed in Note 2, the Company assumed approximately $71.2 million in liabilities associated with the Commonwealth Facility Agreement originally dated November 11, 2024, with the Commonwealth. The Company determined the fair value of the CFA Debt using a discounted cash flow approach, consistent with market practice and applicable accounting standards for valuing long-dated, non-tradeable debt instruments. As of December 31, 2025, the carrying value of the CFA Debt was $22.5 million.
On December 17, 2025, Rex and the Commonwealth entered into (i) an amendment and restatement of the Commonwealth Facility Agreement originally dated November 11, 2024 (the “Perpetual Facility Agreement”), and (ii) a new facility agreement (the “New Facility Agreement” and, together with the Perpetual Facility Agreement, the “Commonwealth Facilities”).
The Perpetual Facility Agreement is for an initial term of 30 years and permits extension of the termination date by up to an additional 20 years (intwo 10‑year increments) subject to specified conditions and require mandatory prepayments from Excess Cash Flow in accordance with the Intercreditor Deed. The Perpetual Facility Agreement does not bear interest, provided that if Rex fails to maintain compliance with certain ‘Rex Regional Commitments’ (and a resulting event of default date occurs), interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal at a rate of 2.00% per annum during the period of such non-compliance.
The fair value of the Perpetual Facility Agreement on December 17, 2025 was approximately $22.5 million, estimated using a DCF approach, consistent with market practice and applicable accounting standards for the valuation of long-dated, non-tradeable debt instruments, and is considered a Level 3 fair value measurement. The DCF values the forecasted cash flows that related to Rex operations that are required to be used to prepay the note over its term. The fair value of the debt would have been different if there was a significant change to the cash flows for prepayment and the discount rate applied to the cash flows. The range of inputs for the valuation of the discount rate were between 12% and 18%, and the weighted average discount rate was 15%. The carrying value exceeded the estimated fair value primarily due to the Perpetual Facility Agreement bearing no contractual interest.
The New Facility Agreement bears interest at 12.0% per annum (which rate shall increase by 2.00% per annum if the Rex Companies fail to maintain compliance with certain “Rex Regional Commitments” regarding flight service levels and route profitability). The interest rate applicable to the New Facility Agreement is subject to adjustment from time to time in accordance with the Intercreditor Deed to match the interest rate applicable to the New Cap Note Facility. The New Facility Agreement matures on December 17, 2032 and provides for differing availability periods: (i) athree-year availability period for the A$40.0 million facility for engine care and maintenance; and (ii) atwo-year availability period for the A$20.0 million business operations facility.
The Commonwealth Facilities are secured by general security deeds and certain real property and aircraft‑related security and, among other things: (i) include a financial covenant requiring the Rex Companies to maintain a minimum cash balance of A$5.0 million at all times until the New Cap Note Facility is fully drawn, (ii) require application of Excess Cash Flow as mandatory prepayments pursuant to the Intercreditor Deed, (iii) under the New Facility Agreement, provide for mandatory prepayments from asset sale proceeds, insurance proceeds not applied to repair or replacement, and Excess Cash Flow, (iv) restrict the sale or disposal of assets outside the ordinary course of business, subject to a basket for disposals where the market value or consideration does not exceed A$1.0 million in any financial year; and (v) under the Perpetual Facility Agreement, require mandatory prepayments from Excess Cash Flow in accordance with the Intercreditor Deed. Excess Cash Flow is calculated as available cash flow for that relevant period less required debt payments for that relevant period (excluding capitalized interest).

- EMPLOYEE AND NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR STOCK OPTIONS
Air T, Inc. maintains the 2020 Omnibus Stock and Incentive Plan for the benefit of certain eligible employees and directors. Compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period for stock options which are expected to vest based on their grant-date fair values. The Company uses either the Black-Scholes option pricing model or Monte Carlo simulations to value stock options the Company grants. The key assumptions for the valuation methodologies include the expected term of the option, stock price volatility, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. Many of these assumptions are judgmental and highly sensitive in the determination of compensation expense.
On December 29, 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors unanimously approved the Omnibus Stock and Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), which was subsequently approved by the Company's stockholders at the August 18, 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The total number of shares authorized under the Plan is 420,000. Through December 31, 2025, options to purchase up to 399,300 shares have been granted under the Plan. Of the shares granted under the Plan,349,800 vest annually over a period often years based on a specified service condition ("vested awards") and expireten years after vesting. However, the ability to exercise vested awards, occurring at the conclusion of each annual vesting period, is contingent upon the Company's stock price meeting predetermined milestones outlined in the options agreements (the "market condition"). If the market condition is not fulfilled at the annual vesting period on June 30 of every year, the vested awards may not be exercisable at any subsequent point. On the preceding four vesting dates, June 30, 2025, 2024, 2023 and 2022, a total of 129,050 shares satisfied the service condition; however, they did not meet the market condition to become exercisable. For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2025, no unvested shares were forfeited due to employee departures. As of December 31, 2025, there were 195,250 granted options that may become exercisable on future vesting dates under the Plan. No options were exercisable as of December 31, 2025.
On August 5, 2025, Air T granted 49,500 options under the Plan with a different vesting schedule. Beginning August 6, 2026 and each anniversary date thereafter through August 6, 2035,10% of the granted options will vest. For all the options granted, half will have a strike price of $30 and the other half will have a strike price of $50. Should a grantee quit or services cease being provided, any options that have not vested will be forfeited. Options that vest each August 6 will be exercisable for a period often years after they become vested, meaning vested options that were not exercised will expire from August 6, 2036 through August 6, 2045. Management valued the granted options using the Monte Carlo Simulation method, noting the fair value on August 5, 2025 was $0.8 million. Expenses are recognized based on a straight-line basis.
For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2025, total compensation cost recognized under the Plan was $48.0 thousand and $129.0 thousand.
- Shares Repurchased
On May 14, 2014, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had authorized a program to repurchase up to 750,000 (retrospectively adjusted to 1,125,000 after the stock split on June 10, 2019) shares of the Company’s common stock from time to time on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, in compliance with SEC Rule 10b-18, over an indefinite period. No shares were repurchased by the Company during the nine months ended December 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2025,752,228 shares may be repurchased pursuant to this program.

- Segment Information
Air T's portfolio of businesses are managed on a highly decentralized basis. These businesses are aggregated into operating segments in a manner that reflects how Air T views the business activities. The Company's chief operating decision maker is the Chief Executive Officer. The Chief Executive Officer is ultimately responsible for significant capital allocation decisions and evaluating operating performance. In assessing performance for the Company's businesses, the chief operating decision maker ("CODM") reviews operating income and Adjusted EBITDA. Certain operating segments are aggregated into reportable segments.
Effective as of the third quarter of fiscal year 2026, the Company introduced a new reportable segment named, "Regional Airline". This new segment includes all reportable activity as it relates to the operating business of Rex, the business acquired by the Company as discussed in Note 2.
Effective as of the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025, the Company renamed the ground equipment sales segment to ground support equipment and renamed the commercial jet engines and parts segment to commercial aircraft, engines and parts to better align the descriptions of the segments with their activities.
Additionally, the Company elected to separately disclose the digital solutions segment, as of the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025, to align presentation in the financial statements with a key anticipated long-term growth area for the Company. Digital solutions was previously classified as part of insignificant business activities. As a result of this change, prior period segment information has been recast to conform to our current presentation in our financial statements.
The Company'sfive business segments are as follows:
| Reportable Segment | Principal Business Activities |
|---|---|
| Overnight Air Cargo | Overnight Air Cargo primarily operates under its relationship with FedEx spanning over 40 years and represent MAC and CSA, which are two of eight companies in the U.S. that have North American feeder airlines under contract with FedEx. MAC and CSA operate and maintain Cessna Caravan, Sky Courier, ATR-42 and ATR-72 aircraft that fly daily small-package cargo routes throughout the eastern United States and upper Midwest, and in the Caribbean. |
| Commercial Aircraft, Engines and Parts (formerly known as Commercial Jet Engines and Parts) | The Commercial Aircraft, Engines and Parts segment manages and leases aviation assets; supplies surplus and aftermarket commercial jet engine components; provides commercial aircraft disassembly/part-out services; commercial aircraft parts sales; procurement services and overhaul and repair services to airlines. |
| Ground Support Equipment (formerly known as Ground Support Sales) | Ground Support Equipment manufactures and provides mobile deicers and other specialized equipment products to passenger and cargo airlines, airports, the military and industrial customers. |
| Digital Solutions | Digital Solutions develops and provides digital aviation and other business services to customers within the aviation industry to generate recurring subscription revenues. Until the fourth quarter of the fiscal year 2025, Digital Solutions had been reported as part of the central corporate function referred to as Corporate and Other. |
| Regional Airline | The Regional Airline segment's primary operations focus on sustaining and growing essential regional passenger and cargo air connectivity. The segment consists of Regional Express Airlines, which operates a fleet of Saab 340 aircraft that provide vital connections between Australia's regional centers and capital cities for its customers |
The information that follows shows data of Air T's reportable segments reconciled to amounts reflected in our Consolidated Financial Statements. Intersegment eliminations are included to reconcile segment totals to consolidated amounts.
The cost and expense information presented below is based on the information regularly provided to the CODM. Further, asset information is not included in the information regularly provided to the CODM as it is not a key determining factor in the performance of the Company's reportable segments.
The Company also has a "Corporate and Other" category which includes unallocated Air T holding company costs that are not directly attributable to the ongoing operating activities of our reportable segments in addition to revenues and expenses for non-reportable operating businesses and investments.

Put/Call Options and Earnout
Contrail entered into an Operating Agreement (the “Contrail Operating Agreement”) in connection with the acquisition of Contrail providing for the governance of and the terms of membership interests in Contrail and including put and call options with the Seller to require Contrail to purchase all of the Seller’s equity membership interests in Contrail, such options commencing on the fifth anniversary of the acquisition, which occurred on July 18, 2021. On May 30, 2024, Contrail entered into a Membership Interest Redemption and Earnout Agreement (the "Redemption Agreement") with the Seller. Pursuant to the Redemption Agreement, Contrail agreed to purchase and redeem from the Seller,16% of its 21% interest in Contrail, with the earnout period being retroactive to April 1, 2024. The purchase price for the redeemed interest is $4.6 million in the form of a secured, subordinated promissory note, plus an earnout amount valued at $1.1 million. Under the Redemption Agreement, the Seller is entitled to an annual earnout payment equal to 9.14% of Contrail's adjusted EBITDA over $7.0 million in each fiscal year beginning on March 31, 2025 and continuing through March 31, 2029. Pursuant to the Redemption Agreement, Contrail is required to calculate the earnout payments annually within 30 days following the completion of the annual audits of the Company and Contrail and payment of any amount due is required following satisfaction of a procedure to address any objections to the calculated amount. The earnout pursuant to the Redemption Agreement is a Level 3 fair value measurement that is valued at $0.4 million as of December 31, 2025. For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2025, no change in fair value and a gain on the decrease in fair value of the liability of $0.7 million was recognized, respectively.
In connection with the Redemption Agreement, the parties agreed to certain technical amendments to the First Amended and Restated Operating Agreement of Contrail and entered into a new Put and Call Agreement with respect to the remaining 5% interest in Contrail held by the Seller. Pursuant to the new Put and Call Agreement, commencing April 1, 2026 and at any time thereafter, either Contrail or the Seller has the option to elect by written notice to purchase or sell all of the remaining 5% interest in Contrail held by the Seller. The purchase price for the 5% interest is equal to 5% of the Contrail Equity Value, which is defined as an amount equal tonine times the average Adjusted EBITDA of Contrail's most recent three completed fiscal years at the time an option notice is delivered. The purchase price for the 5% interest is to be paid in equal quarterly installments over athree-year period, together with interest at the then currentten-year Treasury bond yield plus 2.5% adjusted annually. The Company has presented this redeemable non-controlling interest in Contrail ("Contrail RNCI") between the liabilities and equity sections of the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. In addition, the Company has elected to recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the greater of fair value on the date of the agreement, adjusted for allocable income and loss, or the redemption value at the end of each reporting period.
In February 2022, in connection with the Company's acquisition of GdW, a consolidated subsidiary of Shanwick, the Company entered into a shareholder agreement with the 30.0% non-controlling interest owners of Shanwick, providing for the governance of and the terms of membership interests in Shanwick. The shareholder agreement includes the Shanwick Put/Call Option with regard to the 30.0% non-controlling interest. The non-controlling interest holders are the executive management of the underlying business. The Shanwick Put/Call Option grants the Company an option to purchase the 30.0% interest at the call option price that equals the average EBIT over the three Financial Years prior to the exercise of the Call Option multiplied byeight. In addition, the Shanwick Put/Call Option also grants the non-controlling interest owners an option to require the Company to purchase from them their respective ownership interests at the Put Option price, that is equal to the average EBIT over the three Financial Years prior to the exercise of the Put Option multiplied by seven and one-half. The Call Option and the Put Option may be exercised at any time from the fifth anniversary of the shareholder agreement and then only at the end of each fiscal year of Air T ("Shanwick RNCI").
The Company has presented the Shanwick RNCI between the liabilities and equity sections of the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. In addition, the Company has elected to recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the estimated redemption value at the end of each reporting period. As the Shanwick RNCI will be redeemed at established multiples of EBIT, it is considered redeemable at other than fair value. Changes in its estimated redemption value are recorded on our consolidated statements of operations within non-controlling interests.
The Shanwick RNCI and Contrail RNCI are measured at the higher of their carrying value or their redemption value. As of December 31, 2025, the balances were comprised of the following (in thousands):

Any investment returns on CAM’s investor interests are shared pro-rata between the Company and MRC for each individual investment at the CJVII Series. Per its Operating Agreement, CAM is comprised of only two Series: the Onshore and the Offshore Series. Participation in each is determined solely based on whether a potential investment at the CJVII Series is a domestic (Onshore) or international (Offshore) investment.

The Company fulfilled its Investment Function initial commitment to CAM in fiscal year 2023.
In connection with the formation of CAM, MRC has a fixed price put option of $1.0 million to sell its common equity in CAM to the Company at each of the first three (3) anniversary dates. At the later of (a) five (5) years after execution of the agreement and (b) distributions to MRC per the waterfall equal to their capital contributions, Air T has a call option and MRC has a put option on the MRC common interests in CAM ("secondary put and call option"). If either party exercises the option, the exercise price will be fair market value if Air T pays in cash at closing or 112.5% of fair market value if Air T opts to pay in three (3) equal annual installments after exercise.
