NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2026
NOTE 1 –ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Volato Group, Inc. (“we”, “us”, “the Company”, or “Volato”) is a holding company for several wholly owned subsidiaries, including Volato, Inc., Fly Vaunt, LLC, Gulf Coast Aviation, LLC (f/k/a Gulf Coast Aviation, Inc.), Parslee, LLC and Modern Aero Charter, LLC. The Company’s primary operating subsidiary was founded in 2021. That year, the Company entered the private jet charter and fractional ownership market with its Part 135 HondaJet ownership program, taking delivery of its first jet in August 2021 and completing its first Part 135 charter flight in October of 2021. In March 2022, the Company acquired Gulf Coast Aviation, Inc. (n/k/a Gulf Coast Aviation, LLC), owner of GC Aviation, Inc., a Part 135 air carrier certificate holder. In March 2022, the Company placed orders forfour Gulfstream G280s for delivery in 2024 and 2025. In September 2022, the Company started internal development on its full suite Flight Management Software platform Mission Control, in the fourth quarter of 2023 the Company commercially launched Vaunt, our proprietary consumer facing empty leg platform, and in the fourth quarter of 2025 the Company commercially launched Parslee, our AI based document intelligence platform.
In September 2024, the Company entered into an agreement with flyExclusive, Inc., (“flyExclusive”) a leading provider of private jet charter services, to transition the management of its aircraft ownership fleet operations to flyExclusive. This move was intended to bring substantial cost savings and allow Volato to focus on its potential high-growth areas, including aircraft sales and proprietary software products. The Company has continued to generate revenue from its proprietary software, including the Vaunt platform, its empty leg consumer app. In the fourth quarter of 2024, we transferred our aircraft lease agreements to flyExclusive and have no further obligations under the aircraft lease agreements or control over flight operations. The Company has retained insider card liabilities of $0.1 million as of June 30, 2026.
On February 24, 2025, the Company effected a reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding Class A common stock (also referred to as “common stock” in this Quarterly Report), at a ratio of 1-for-25 (the “Reverse Stock Split”) with no change in par value. All share amounts have been retroactively adjusted to account for the split as if it occurred at inception.
On March 20, 2025, the Company sold its former subsidiary GC Aviation, Inc., which held the FAA Part 135 certificate for $2.0 million, of which $1.8 million is a note receivable. The Company is currently accruing interest on the note.
On July 28, 2025, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) with Volato Merger Subsidiary, Inc., a Nevada corporation and then wholly-owned subsidiary of Volato (“Merger Sub”), and M2i Global, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“M2i”), pursuant to which Merger Sub was to merge with and into M2i, with M2i surviving the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Volato (together with all other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the “Merger”). On June 4, 2026, the Company delivered written notice to M2i terminating the Merger Agreement and abandoning the transactions contemplated thereby.
In July 2025, the Company began development of an Artificial Intelligence based software platform designed to enhance the reliability of leading large language models when analyzing contracts, SEC filings and reports, and other structured documents.
On October 1, 2025, the Company entered into a Fourth Amendment (the “Amendment”) to Aircraft Management Services Agreement (as amended the “Agreement”) with flyExclusive to bring the Agreement in line with Company’s anticipated shift in operations, new business directives, and to better accommodate the contemplated Merger with M2i. The Amendment served to (i) modify the term of the Agreement; (ii) grant flyExclusive, subject to certain terms and conditions, the right to purchase certain aviation-related assets from the Company and assume certain obligations of the Company (the “flyExclusive Asset Option”); (iii) grant the Company, subject to certain terms and conditions, the right to sell certain aviation-related assets to flyExclusive and assign certain obligations of the Company to flyExclusive (the “Company Asset Option,” and collectively with the flyExclusive Asset Option, the “Asset Options”); (iv) obligate flyExclusive to pay the Company $100,000 upon execution of the Amendment as settlement of net payables owed by flyExclusive to the Company under the terms of the Agreement (the “Net Payables Obligation”); and (v) modify the material terms of flyExclusive’s right to cause the Company to merge with and into a wholly owned subsidiary of flyExclusive (the “flyExclusive Merger Option”), including that the flyExclusive Merger Option is to be only exercisable in the event that the Company and M2i terminate the Merger Agreement. flyExclusive paid the Net Payables Obligation by issuing the Company 20,576 shares of Class A common stock.
As consideration for the execution of the Amendment, flyExclusive agreed to pay $2,000,000 to the Company, in cash or shares of flyExclusive Class A common stock, in exchange for the right to receive either (i) the net proceeds that the Company receives from the sale of a certain G280 aircraft, or (ii) if, and only if, Gulfstream provides written consent, assignment of the G280 Agreement from the Company to flyExclusive subject to the execution of an asset purchase agreement relating solely to the transfer of the G280 Agreement. The G280 aircraft was later delivered to the Company pursuant to an existing agreement (the “G280 Agreement”) with Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation (“Gulfstream”). flyExclusive elected to pay all of the $2,000,000 in shares of its Class A common stock and issued an aggregate of 411,523 shares of its Class A common stock to the Company, which occurred in the fourth quarter of 2025.
In January 2026, the Company paid a dividend of 432,099 shares of Class A common stock of flyExclusive to Volato shareholders.
On March 6, 2026, the Company signed amendment number five to the Agreement with flyExclusive, pursuant to which the Company sold certain unused intellectual property assets for $1.3 million payable in cash or shares of flyExclusive’s Class A common stock. Such assets represent a portion of the total assets which were anticipated to be sold under one of the Asset Options as described above. flyExclusive issued an aggregate of 451,901 shares of its Class A common stock to the Company in March 2026 which is recorded as Investment in flyExclusive on the consolidated balance sheets. With the sale of the asset, the Company recorded a gain on the sale of the asset of $0.8 million which is recorded in Other Income on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Following the sale of the intellectual property assets pursuant to the fifth amendment, there is $700,000 in remaining assets that may be sold to flyExclusive under the terms of the Agreement, as amended.
NOTE 2 –SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Going concern, liquidity, and capital resources
The Company has limited operating history, the Company realized net loss of approximately $4.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and the Company has an accumulated deficit of approximately $105.5 million as of June 30, 2026.
These above matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. During the next twelve months, the Company intends to fund its operations through the issuance of financial instruments including debt or equity securities and revenues from operations.
Accordingly, management believes that its current cash position, along with its proceeds from future debt and/or equity financings, when combined with prudent expense management, will allow the Company to continue as a going concern and to fund its operations for at least one year from the date of issuance of these financial statements. There are no assurances, however, that management will be able to raise capital or debt on terms acceptable to the Company. If the Company is unable to obtain sufficient additional capital or debt on terms acceptable to the Company, the Company may be required to reduce the near-term scope of its planned development and operations, which could delay implementation of the Company’s business plan and harm its business, financial condition, and operating results. The balance sheets do not include any adjustments that might result from these uncertainties.
Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP” or “GAAP”) on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business and following the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements are condensed and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual audited 2025 condensed consolidated financial statements, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 12, 2026. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026 or for any other future annual or interim period.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in 2026 have been reclassified to conform with the current period’s presentation to properly reflect discontinued operations.
Principles of consolidation
The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the Company’s accounts and the accounts of its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Such estimates include:
| ● | Useful lives of property, plant, and equipment. |
| ● | Assumptions used in valuing debt or equity instruments. |
| ● | Deferred income taxes and related valuation allowance. |
| ● | Assessment of long-lived assets impairment. |
| ● | Assumptions used in the aviation asset put/call option. |
| ● | Accrual and legal estimates |
Cash
Cash consists primarily of cash on hand and bank deposits. The Company maintains cash deposits with financial institutions that may exceed federally insured limits at times. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company hadno cash equivalents besides what was in the cash balance as of those dates. The Company hadno restricted cash at June 30, 2026, and December 31, 2025, respectively.
Accounts receivable
Accounts receivable are reported on the consolidated balance sheets at the outstanding principal amount adjusted for any allowance for credit losses and any charge offs. The Company provides an allowance for credit losses to reduce trade receivables to their estimated net realizable value equal to the amount that is expected to be collected. This allowance is estimated based on historical collection experience, the aging of receivables, specific current and expected future macro-economic and market conditions, and assessments of the current creditworthiness and economic status of customers. The Company considers a receivable delinquent if it is unpaid after the term of the related invoice has expired. Balances that are still outstanding after management has used reasonable collection efforts are written off. The Company reviews its allowance for credit losses on a quarterly basis.
During the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recognized $6 thousand and $123 thousand of bad debt expense, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recognized $7 thousand and $148 thousand of bad debt expense, respectively.
Fixed assets
Fixed assets are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, which range from three to seven years:
| Classification | Life |
|---|---|
| Machinery and equipment | 3-7 years |
| Automobiles | 5 years |
| Computer and office equipment | 5 years |
| Website development costs | 3 years |
Computer software development
Software development costs are accounted for in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350-40,Internal Use Software. Internal software development costs are capitalized from the time the internal use software is considered probable of completion until the software is ready for use. Business analysis, system evaluation and software maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. The capitalized computer software development costs are reported under the section “Property and equipment, net” in the consolidated balance sheets and are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the software, generally three years from when the asset is placed in service. The Company capitalized $346 thousand andzero of internal software development costs during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The Company recognized $42 thousand and $48 of amortization expense related to computer software development during the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The Company recognized $69 thousand and $96 thousand of amortization expense related to computer software development during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The Company also expenses internal costs related to minor upgrades and enhancements, as it is impractical to separate these costs from normal maintenance activities. During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company reduced the value of software development cost by $32 thousand and $54 thousand, related to a non-monetary exchange with a third party and their use of our mission control software. This software development cost was originally related to software developed for internal use, which was licensed to a third party in a non-monetary transaction and was subsequently sold to the same third-party in March 2026.
Website development cost
The costs incurred for activities during the website application and infrastructure development stage are capitalized in accordance with the guidance on internal-use software in FASB ASC 350-40. The Company capitalized no website development costs during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The Company recognized $24 thousand and $24 thousand of amortization expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The company recognized $40 thousand and $48 thousand of amortization expense during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Valuation of long-lived assets
In accordance with FASB ASC 360, property, plant, and equipment, and long-lived assets are analyzed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. The Company evaluates at each balance sheet date whether events and circumstances have occurred that indicate possible impairment. If there are indications of impairment, the Company uses future undiscounted cash flows of the related asset or asset grouping over the remaining life in measuring whether the assets are recoverable. In the event such cash flows are not expected to be sufficient to recover the recorded asset values, the assets are written down to their estimated fair value. No impairment was recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Fair value of financial instruments
The Company adopted the provisions of FASB ASC 820 (the “Fair Value Topic”) which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under U.S. GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.
The Company measures fair value under a framework that utilizes a hierarchy prioritizing the inputs to relevant valuation techniques. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of inputs used in measuring fair value are:
| ■ | Level 1: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company as the ability to access. |
| ■ | Level 2: Inputs to the valuation methodology include: |
| ● | Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets. |
| ● | Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets. |
| ● | Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability. |
| ● | Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market date by correlation or other means. |
| ● | If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. |
| ■ | Level 3: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. |
In December 2024, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (“2024 Securities Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company may issue a series of convertible notes for an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $36.0 million. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company issued a single convertible note in the principal amount of $4.5 million, (the “2024 Convertible Note”), of which $4.1 million was funded as of December 31, 2024, representing an original issue discount of ten percent. The Company elected the fair value guidance under ASC 825-10 and the 2024 Convertible Note was recognized at initial fair value as of the issuance date. The value of the 2024 Convertible Note at issuance approximated fair value as of December 31, 2024. Any issuances of additional convertible notes are subject to the terms and conditions of the 2024 Security Purchase Agreement (see Note 8).
On September 30, 2025, the Company, entered into Share Exchange Agreements (the “Share Exchange Agreements”), with two investors. The investors are shareholders of M2i, whose common stock is publicly quoted on the OTCQB Venture Market of OTC Markets Group, Inc. under the symbol “MTWO”. Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreements, the Company agreed to issue an aggregate of 1,197,604 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock to the investors in exchange for an aggregate of 16,000,000 shares of M2i common stock (the “Investment in M2i”). At the date of the exchange, the Company recognized a loss of $115 thousand in “Loss from change in fair value of financial instruments” on the consolidated statement of operations for the difference between the fair value of the Company’s common stock that were issued and the fair value of the Investment in M2i.
On April 16, 2026, the Company entered into two additional Share Exchange Agreements, and on April 17, 2026 the Company entered into a final Share Exchange Agreement with investors who are M2i shareholders. Pursuant to the additional Share Exchange Agreements, the Company agreed to issue an aggregate 5,407,499 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock in exchange for an aggregate of 48,044,912 shares of M2i common stock. At the date of exchange, the Company recognized a loss of $80 thousand for the difference between the fair value of the shares of the Company’s common stock that were issued and the fair value of the Investment in M2i.
On June 28, 2026, the Company entered into a mutual termination and release agreement with one of the M2i Investors because the investor failed to transfer and deliver 27,902,467 M2i shares to the Company as required by the Share Exchange Agreements. In addition, the Company filed suite with another of the M2i Investors because the investor failed to transfer and deliver 4,000,000 M2i Shares to the Company as required by the Share Exchange Agreements. In conjunction with the mutual termination and release agreement and suite filed, the Company cancelled 3,258,886 shares of Company common stock that were previously issued to the investors. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recorded a gain of $959 thousand due to unwind of the terminated agreements.
Pursuant to ASC 321, the Investment in M2i is measured at fair value each reporting period, with unrealized gain or loss recognized in earnings. The Investment in M2i is classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820, as it is based on quoted prices for identical assets in inactive markets. The inputs are obtained from OTC quoted prices for level II. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recorded a net loss of $450 thousand related to the change in fair value of the remaining Investment in M2i.
On October 1, 2025, the Company entered into the Amendment with flyExclusive, as described in Note 1. As part of the amendment, flyExclusive agreed to pay $2.1 million in cash or shares of common stock to the Company for the net payables option and the proceeds from the sale of the fourth G280. flyExclusive issued the Company 432,099 shares of Class A common stock (the “Investment in flyExclusive”) in the fourth quarter of 2025. At the date of the exchange, the Company recognized a loss of $6.1 million in Other Expense in the consolidated statements of operations. In January 2026, the Company effected a divided of the shares of flyExclusive stock it previously held to its shareholders. With the issuance of the dividend the Company recorded a loss of $101 thousand on the loss of the settlement of shares during the three months ended March 31, 2026.
On March 6, 2026, the Company signed amendment number five to the Agreement with flyExclusive, and sold certain unused intellectual property assets for $1.3 million payable in cash or shares of flyExclusive’s Class A common stock. Such assets represent a portion of the total assets which were anticipated to be sold under one of the Asset Options as described above. flyExclusive issued an aggregate of 451,901 shares of its Class A common stock to the Company in March 2026 and is recorded as Investment in flyExclusive on the consolidated balance sheets. During the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recorded a loss of $54 thousand related to the change in fair value of the Investment in flyExclusive. During the six months ended the Company recorded a loss of $128 thousand related to the change in fair value of the Investment in flyExclusive.
Pursuant to ASC 321, the Investment in flyExclusive is measured at fair value each reporting period, with unrealized gain or loss recognized in earnings. The Investment in flyExclusive is classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820, as it is traded in an active market.
Additionally, with the signing of the Amendment with flyExclusive, as described in Note 1, it granted flyExclusive the right to purchase certain aviation-related assets from the Company and assume certain Company obligations (the “Call Option”) and granted the Company the right to sell certain obligations of the Company to flyExclusive (the “Put Option”). The fair value of the Company’s recorded Aviation Asset Option was determined based on unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data, which require a Level 3 classification. A Black-Scholes model was used to determine the fair value as of December 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2025, the Company fair valued the aviation asset and recorded a gain on the asset of $324 thousand. In March of 2026, the Company determined that the exercise of the Call Option and Put Option prior to the expiration of the Agreement was not probable and as such the value of the aviation asset was reduced tozero and a loss of $324 thousand was recorded in gain (loss) on change in financial instruments in the consolidated statements of operations.
On June 7, 2026, under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company delivered to the lead investor 451,901 shares of FlyExclusive, Inc. common stock, previously held by the Company, which resulted in the Company ceasing to hold any shares of FlyExclusive common stock.

There were no transfers between fair value levels during the period. There were no gains and losses attributable to changes in instrument specific credit risk as the Company determined the likelihood of an event of default to be de minimus. The carrying amount of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, accounts receivable, prepaid and other assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses, deposits, and members’ deposits approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments. The Company’s credit facility, convertible notes and other loans approximate the fair value of such liabilities based upon management’s best estimate of interest rates that would be available to the Company for similar financial arrangements and due to the short-term maturity of these instruments at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
Commitments and contingencies
The Company follows subtopic 450-20 of the FASB ASC to report accounting for contingencies. Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred, and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated.
Warrants
The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in FASB ASC 480Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and FASB ASC 815,Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own common stock, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent reporting period end date while the warrants are outstanding. All of the Company’s warrants have met the criteria for equity treatment.
Revenue recognition
Revenues are recognized on a gross basis and presented on the consolidated statements of operations net of rebates, discounts, and taxes collected concurrent with revenue-producing activities. The transaction price in the Company’s contracts with its customers is fixed at the time control of goods and services are transferred to the customer. Therefore, the Company does not estimate variable consideration or perform a constraint analysis for our contracts.
The Company determines revenue recognition pursuant to ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, through the following steps:
| 1. | Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer. |
| 2. | Identification of the performance obligation(s) in the contract. |
| 3. | Determination of the transaction price. |
| 4. | Allocation of the transaction to the performance obligation(s) in the contract. |
| 5. | Recognize revenue when or as the entity satisfies a performance obligation. |
The Company has generated revenue primarily through: (i) the sale of aircraft, and (ii) our Vaunt software-as-a-subscription product. Revenue is recognized when control of the promised service is transferred to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services. At contract inception, the Company assesses the goods and services promised in its contracts with customers and identifies, as a performance obligation, each promise to transfer a good or service to a customer that is distinct. To identify its performance obligations, the Company considers all of the goods and services promised in the contract regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or are implied by customary business practices.
For each revenue stream, we evaluate whether our obligation is to provide the good or service itself, as the principal or to arrange for the good or service to be provided by the other party, as the agent, using the control model. In such circumstances, the Company is primarily responsible for satisfying the overall performance obligation with the customer and is considered the principal in the relationship.
Revenue from aircraft sales is recognized upon the delivery of the aircraft.
The Company generated revenue during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, broken down as follows, in thousands:
| Three Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026 | 2025 | 2026 | 2025 | |
| Aircraft sales | $— | $24,500 | $— | $49,600 |
| Subscription | 965 | 355 | 1,967 | 738 |
| Total | $965 | $24,855 | $1,967 | $50,338 |
Revenue from the sales of our Vaunt Software-as-a-subscription is deferred and recognized over the subscription term of the software and is included in deferred revenue and customer deposits on the consolidated balance sheets. Additionally, in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 we recognized revenue of $152 thousand related to mission control and the third-party non-monetary transaction.
The following table provides a rollforward of deferred revenue, recorded in deferred revenue and customer deposits in the consolidated balance sheets, for the six months ended June 30, 2026, in thousands:

Assets Recognized from the Costs to Obtain Revenue Contracts
We recognize an asset for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a client if we expect the amortization period to be longer than one year, such costs are specifically identifiable, generate or enhance resources used to satisfy future performance obligations, and are expected to be recovered. We have determined the costs incurred are incremental and recoverable and are subject to capitalization and amortization under ASC 340-40. The capitalized costs relate to revenue share with Vaunt operators and Vaunt sales commissions. The assets are capitalized and amortized ratably over the expected period of the benefit, which is currently estimated at 14 months. In April, after the sale of mission control to flyExclusive, the Company wrote off $264 thousand of the remining amount of the flyExclusive amortization and is recorded in gain on sale of asset in the consolidated statements of operations as of June 30, 2026.

Income taxes
The Company follows Section 740-10-30 of the FASB ASC, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the fiscal year in which the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Company follows the guidance of 740-10-25 of the FASB ASC (“Section 740-10-25”) with regards to uncertainty in income taxes. Section 740-10-25 addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under Section 740-10-25, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent (50%) likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Section 740-10-25 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim periods and requires increased disclosures. The Company had no material adjustments to its assets and/or liabilities for unrecognized income tax benefits according to the provisions of Section 740-10-25.
The Company is subject to tax in the United States (“U.S.”) and files tax returns in the U.S. Federal jurisdiction, and state jurisdictions. The Company is subject to U.S. Federal, state, and local income tax examinations by tax authorities. The Company currently is not under examination by any tax authority.
Stock-based compensation
The Company accounts for equity-based compensation using the fair value method as set forth in the ASC 718,Compensation—Stock Compensation, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all stock-based payment awards based on estimated fair values. This method requires companies to estimate the fair value of stock-based compensation on the date of grant using an option pricing model. The Company estimates the fair value of each equity-based payment award on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes pricing model.
The Black-Scholes model determines the fair value of equity-based payment awards based on the fair value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant and requires the use of estimates and assumptions, including the fair value of the Company’s common stock, exercise price of the stock option, expected volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate and dividend rate. The Company estimates the expected volatility of its stock options by taking the average historical volatility of a group of comparable publicly traded companies over a period equal to the expected life of the options; it is not practical for the Company to estimate its own volatility due to the lack of historical prices. The expected term of the options is determined in accordance with existing equity agreements as the underlying options are assumed to be exercised upon the passage of time. The risk-free interest rate is the estimated average interest rate based on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon notes with terms consistent with the expected life of the awards. The expected dividend yield is zero as the Company does not anticipate paying any recurring cash dividends in the foreseeable future. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur.
Net income (loss) per share
The Company computes basic and diluted earnings per share amounts pursuant to section 260-10-45 of FASB ASC. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders, by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, excluding the effects of any potentially dilutive securities. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares of common stock during the period. The diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted as of the first day of the year for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. In periods in which a net loss has been incurred, all potentially dilutive common shares are considered anti-dilutive and thus are excluded from the calculation. Securities that are excluded from the calculation of weighted average dilutive common shares because their inclusion would have been antidilutive for the six months ended June 30, 2026, include stock options, restricted stock units and warrants.
The Company had 16,509 and 17,857 outstanding stock options to purchase an equivalent number of shares of common stock at June 30, 2026, and 2025, respectively.
The Company had 10,964 and 15,706 outstanding restricted stock units to purchase an equivalent number of shares of common stock at June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
The Company also had 1,161,195 outstanding warrants to purchase an equivalent number of shares of common stock as of June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively at a weighted average strike price of $287.50.
Concentration of credit risk
The Company maintains its cash with a major financial institution located in the United States of America which it believes to be creditworthy. Balances are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. At times, the Company may maintain balances in excess of the federally insured limits. As of June 30, 2026 the Company had approximately $8.2 million in excess of FDIC-insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to significant credit risk on cash.
Intangible assets
Intangible assets other than goodwill consisted of acquired finite-lived customer relationships and acquired indefinite-lived Part 135 air carrier certificate. At initial recognition, intangible assets acquired in a business combination were recognized at their fair value as of the date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, finite-lived intangible assets were carried at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses, if any, and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset, which was determined based on management’s estimate of the period over which the asset will contribute to our future cash flows.
The Company reviewed the intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis or if events or changes in circumstances indicate it is more likely than not that they are impaired. These events could include a significant change in the business climate, legal factors, a decline in operating performance, competition, sale, or disposition of a significant portion of the business, or other factors. If the review indicated the impairment, an impairment loss would be recorded for the difference of the value recorded and the fair value. There was no impairment loss for the three months ended June 30, 2026 or 2025, respectively.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the aggregate purchase price paid over the fair value of the net assets acquired in our business combinations. Goodwill is not amortized and is tested for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Events or changes in circumstances that could trigger an impairment review include a significant adverse change in business climate, an adverse action or assessment by a regulator, unanticipated competition, a loss of key personnel, significant changes in the manner of our use of the acquired assets or the strategy for our overall business, significant negative industry or economic trends, or significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future results of operations. The Company has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, including goodwill.
If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, the Company determines that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, additional impairment testing is not required. The Company tests for goodwill impairment annually during its fourth quarter. In March 2025, the Company sold GC Aviation, Inc. which held the Part 135 air carrier certificate. In connection with that sale, the Company recorded an impairment on goodwill of $35 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The loss is recorded in other income, net in the consolidated statements of operations. There wasno impairment loss recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2026.
Segment reporting
The Company identifies operating segments as components of the Company for which discrete financial information is available and is regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), or decision-making group, in making decisions regarding resource allocation and performance assessment. The CODM is the chief executive officer. We determined that the Company operates in a single operating and reportable segment, private aviation services, and the CODM reviews financial information including total assets from continuing operations and net income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of making operating decisions, allocating resources, and assessing performance. Substantially all of our long-lived assets are located in the U.S.
Cost of revenue
Cost of revenue includes costs that are directly related to the related revenue streams – aircraft sales and subscription based revenue. Aircraft sales cost of revenue is our purchase price of the aircraft. Subscription costs includes costs of our proprietary software, the Vaunt platform.
Advertising costs
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of operations. Such advertising amounted to $255 thousand and $207 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Advertising amounted to $525 thousand and $344 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Leases
ASC Topic 842, “Leases” (“ASC 842”) requires lessees to recognize most leases on the balance sheet with a corresponding right-of-use asset (“ROU asset”). ROU asset represents the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liability represents the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. The right-of-use asset and lease liability are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present value of fixed lease payments over the lease term. ROU asset is evaluated for impairment using the long-lived asset impairment guidance. Leases will be classified as financing or operating, which will drive the expense recognition pattern. The Company elects to exclude short-term leases when recording a ROU asset and lease liability if and when the Company has them.

NOTE 13 –COMMITMENT AND CONTINGENCIES
Facilities
Our facilities leases are for space at airports throughout the south with remaining terms ranging from one toeleven months. These leases consist of office space. The leases have lease terms of 12 months or less. Accordingly, the Company has not recognized ROU assets or lease liabilities related to these lease agreements pursuant to the short-term lease election. The Company has made a policy election to not separate lease and non-lease components for these facility leases. Short term lease costs related to these leases were zero and $3 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
In January 2024, the Company began leasing space for aircraft with a term of 5 years with fixed lease payments. The Company recognized an operating lease liability in the amount of the net present value of the future minimum lease payments, and a ROU asset. The discount rate used for this lease was 12%, which was determined to be the incremental borrowing rate based on comparative secured financing in the marketplace at the inception of the fixed lease payments.
Legal Contingencies
From time to time, the Company receives claims of and becomes subject to consumer protection, employment, intellectual property and other commercial litigation related to the conduct and operation of the Company’s business. In connection with such litigation, the Company may be subject to significant damages. We may also be subject to equitable remedies and penalties. Such litigation could be costly and time consuming and could divert or distract Company management and key personnel from its business operations. The Company is currently the defendant in suits brought by vendors, customers and suits related to the transfer of the flight operations and leases to flyExclusive and does not currently believe that any of its outstanding litigation will have a material adverse effect on its financial statements or business. However, due to the uncertainty of litigation and depending on the amount and the timing, an unfavorable resolution of some or all of these matters could materially affect the Company’s business, results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.
In the Tampa Division of the U.S. District Court, in and for the Middle District of Florida on September 12, 2024, Joshua G. Newsteder, LouAnn Gray, and those similarly situated (the “Plaintiffs”) filed suit against the Volato Group, Inc. and Volato, Inc. (together, the “Defendants”) citing various allegations including that the termination of employment of 230 employees that occurred on August 30, 2024 violated requirements of the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act of 1988, 29 U.S.C. § 2101 et. seq. Plaintiffs are seeking unpaid wages or salary, benefits and other relief deemed by the court as just and proper. The Defendants deny all allegations. Current range of loss cannot be estimated.
NOTE 14 –SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company has one reportable segment, private aviation services, managed on a consolidated basis by the CEO who is the CODM. The private aviation services segment provides airplane sales and software-as-a-service subscriptions. The Company derives revenue primarily in North America and manages the business activities on a consolidated basis.
The accounting policies of the segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The CODM assesses performance and decides how to allocate resources based on net income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes that is also reported on the consolidated statements of operations. The measure of segment assets is reported on the consolidated balance sheets as consolidated total assets.
The CODM allocates resources and evaluates performance based on net income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes, which is the Company’s measure of segment profit or loss. The CODM considers year-over-year variances for net income (loss) from continuing operations before taxes when making decisions about how to utilize the Company’s resources.
