Gogo Inc.

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of December 31, 2024. Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2024 due to material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, as described below.

Notwithstanding the ineffective disclosure controls and procedures due to the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, our Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that that the consolidated financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

(b) Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The management of Gogo Inc. is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a – 15(f) and 15d – 15(f) under the Exchange Act and based upon the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“the COSO framework”). Gogo’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation and fair presentation of its published financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The management of Gogo, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have assessed the effectiveness of Gogo’s internal control over financial reporting based on the COSO framework. Based on our assessment, the Company’s management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2024, due to the material weaknesses described below.

Our assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024 excludes the acquisition of Satcom Direct which was acquired on December 3, 2024, and whose financial statements constitute approximately 46% of total assets and 9% of total revenue of the consolidated financial statement amounts of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Despite the exclusion of Satcom Direct from our assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, we identified a material weakness in controls over the financial close and reporting process and controls over purchase accounting as a result of the Satcom Direct acquisition. Specifically, there were insufficient effective controls in place to ensure the completeness and accuracy of Satcom Direct’s financial reporting information that is consolidated into Gogo’s financial statements. This material weakness was due to the following deficiencies at Satcom Direct:

•

Satcom Direct had ineffective general information technology controls (“GITCs”) over relevant information technology (“IT”) systems. Specifically, Satcom Direct management did not design and maintain effective GITCs for information systems and applications that are relevant to the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. Specifically, they did not design and maintain: (i) sufficient user access controls to ensure appropriate segregation of duties and adequately restrict user and privileged access to financial applications, programs and data to appropriate company personnel and (ii) program change management controls to ensure that information technology, or IT, program and data changes affecting financial IT applications and underlying accounting records are identified, tested, authorized and implemented appropriately with appropriate segregation of duties.

•

Satcom Direct’s management did not design and implement control activities necessary to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements.

We also identified a material weakness in controls over the accounting for the Satcom Direct acquisition. Specifically, management had designed control activities over the accounting for the acquisition and related preliminary purchase price allocation for the acquired assets and liabilities performed by third-party specialists, however, management did not effectively implement them due to the timing of the acquisition.

Deloitte & Touche LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, has issued an attestation report on our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, which report is included on Page 102 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K under the caption entitled “Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.”

Remediation Plan for Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Remediation of the identified material weaknesses and strengthening our internal control environment will require a substantial effort throughout 2025. Management has commenced its remediation efforts over the material weaknesses described above as follows:

•

Designing and implementing controls over Satcom Direct’s GITCs relating to user access and program change management over certain IT systems that support financial reporting processes at Satcom Direct.

•

Designing and implementing internal controls over financial reporting for processes specific to Satcom Direct.

•

Implementing the controls the Company has designed related to complex accounting transactions, including those related to acquisitions, such as, the review of third-party specialists’ work and the reasonableness of key assumptions, methodologies, and underlying data used in the accounting and purchase price allocation.

•

Recruiting additional qualified personnel with expertise in public company financial reporting, accounting and internal controls to strengthen our accounting function.

While we believe the steps taken to date and those planned for implementation will improve the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, we have not completed all remediation efforts identified herein. Accordingly, as we continue to monitor the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting in the areas affected by the material weaknesses described above, we have performed and will continue to perform additional procedures and to employ additional appropriate tools and resources.

We will test the ongoing operating effectiveness of the new and existing controls in future periods. The material weaknesses cannot be considered completely remediated until the applicable controls have been implemented and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively.

(c) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Except for the identification of the material weaknesses described above, there have been no changes to our internal control over financial reporting in connection with the evaluation required by Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
