CPI AEROSTRUCTURES INC

Basis of Presentation

The Company consists of CPI Aerostructures, Inc. (“CPI”), Welding Metallurgy, Inc. (“WMI”) and Compac Development Corporation (“Compac”), a wholly owned subsidiary of WMI (collectively the “Company”).

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Company as of March 31, 2026 and for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and notes normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2025 has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP. The Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

All adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation for the periods presented have been reflected. Such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the “Form 10-K”). The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year or any other interim period.

An operating segment, in part, is a component of an enterprise whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (the “CODM”) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance. Operating segments may be aggregated only to a limited extent. The Company’s CODM, the Chief Executive Officer, reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of making operating decisions and assessing financial performance. The Company has determined that it has a single operating and reportable segment.

The Company maintains its cash in multiple financial institutions. The balances are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to the limit of $250,000. From time to time, the Company’s balances may exceed these limits. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had $603,375 of uninsured balances. The Company limits its credit risk by selecting financial institutions considered to be highly credit worthy.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards – Not Adopted

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software (“ASU 2025-06”). This guidance removes all references to prospective and sequential stages (referred to as “project stages”) throughout ASC 350-40 and clarifies the threshold entities apply to begin capitalizing costs. Under ASU 2025-06, cost capitalization should only commence when both management has authorized and committed to funding a software project and it is probable the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. ASU 2025-06 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027 and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Entities may apply the guidance using a prospective, modified transition or retrospective approach. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the preferred transition approach and assessing the impact of the ASU on our disclosures and financial statements, including the timing of adoption.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220- 40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires disclosure in the notes to the financial statements of specified information about certain costs and expenses. In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date, which amends the effective date of ASU 2024-03 to clarify that all public business entities are required to adopt the guidance in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, which will be our interim period beginning January 1, 2028. Early adoption of ASU 2024-03 is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of these standards on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220- 40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires disclosure in the notes to the financial statements of specified information about certain costs and expenses. In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Ef ective Date, which amends the effective date of ASU 2024-03 to clarify that all public business entities are required to adopt the guidance in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, which will be our interim period beginning January 1, 2028. Early adoption of ASU 2024-03 is permitted. We are evaluating the impact of ASU 2025-01 in conjunction with ASU 2024-03.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The following tables present the Company’s revenue disaggregated by contract type and revenue recognition method:

Favorable/(Unfavorable) Adjustments to Gross Profit

We review our Estimates at Completion (“EAC”) at least quarterly. Due to the nature of the work required to be performed on many of the Company’s performance obligations, the estimation of total revenue and cost at completion is complex, subject to many inputs, and requires significant judgment by management on a contract-by-contract basis. As part of this process, management reviews information including, but not limited to, any outstanding key contract matters, progress towards completion and the related program schedule, identified risks and opportunities, and the related changes in estimates of revenues and costs. The risks and opportunities relate to management’s judgment about the ability and cost to achieve the schedule, consideration of customer-directed delays or reductions in scheduled deliveries, technical requirements, customer activity levels, and related variable consideration. Management must make assumptions and estimates regarding contract revenue and costs, including estimates of labor productivity and availability, the complexity and scope of the work to be performed, the availability and cost of materials including any impact from changing costs or inflation, the length of time to complete the performance obligation, the availability and timing of funding from our customer, and overhead cost rates, among others.

Changes in estimates of net sales, cost of sales, and the related impact to operating profit on contracts recognized over time are recognized on a cumulative catch-up basis, which recognizes the cumulative effect of the profit changes on current and prior periods based on a performance obligation’s percentage-of-completion in the current period. A significant change in one or more of these estimates could affect the profitability of one or more of our performance obligations. Our EAC adjustments also include the establishment of, and changes to, loss provisions for our contracts accounted for on a percentage-of-completion basis.

Net EAC adjustments had the following impact on our gross profit during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:

The net adjustment of $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 is driven primarily by an unfavorable adjustment on our Embraer Phenom-300 Engine Inlet Assemblies program.

Transaction Price Allocated to Remaining Performance Obligations

As of March 31, 2026, the aggregate amount of transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations was approximately $96.1 million. This represents the amount of revenue the Company expects to recognize in the future on contracts with unsatisfied or partially satisfied performance obligations as of March 31, 2026.

Contract assets represent revenue recognized on contracts in excess of amounts invoiced to the customers and the Company’s right to consideration is conditional on something other than the passage of time. Amounts may not exceed their net realizable value. Under the typical payment terms of our government as well as military contractor contracts, the customer retains a portion of the contract price until completion of the contract, as a measure of protection for the customer. Our government and military contract or contracts therefore typically result in revenue recognized in excess of billings, which we present as contract assets. Contract assets are classified as current assets. The Company’s contract liabilities represent customer payments received or due from the customer in excess of revenue recognized. Contract liabilities are classified as current liabilities.

Revenue recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 that was included in the contract liabilities balance as of January 1, 2026 and 2025, respectively, was approximately $1.2 million and $0.7 million, respectively.

The components of inventory consisted of the following:

In 2009, the Company adopted the Performance Equity Plan 2009 (the “2009 Plan”). The 2009 Plan reserved 500,000 common shares for issuance. The 2009 Plan provides for the issuance of either incentive stock options or nonqualified stock options to employees, consultants or others who provide services to the Company. The Company has 2,364 shares available for grant under the 2009 Plan as of March 31, 2026.

In 2016, the Company adopted the 2016 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”). The 2016 Plan reserved 600,000 common shares for issuance, provided that, no more than 200,000 common shares be granted as incentive stock options. Awards may be made or granted to employees, officers, directors and consultants in the form of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other stock based awards. Any shares of common stock granted in connection with awards other than stock options and stock appreciation rights are counted against the number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2016 Plan as one and one-half shares of common stock for every one share of common stock granted in connection with such award. Any shares of common stock granted in connection with stock options and stock appreciation rights are counted against the number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2016 Plan as one share for every one share of common stock issuable upon the exercise of such stock option or stock appreciation right awarded. In the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company added 800,000 shares to the 2016 Plan, which increased the number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2016 Plan to 1,400,000 shares. In the second quarter of 2023, the Company added an additional 800,000 shares to the 2016 Plan, which increased the number of shares for reserved for issuance under the 2016 Plan to 2,200,000 shares. The Company has 214,967 shares available for grant under the 2016 Plan as of March 31, 2026.

On June 24, 2025, the shareholders of the Company approved the 2025 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2025 Plan”) at the Company’s 2025 annual meeting of shareholders. The 2025 Plan had previously been approved by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) on April 28, 2025, upon the recommendation of the Company’s Compensation and Human Resources Committee, subject to shareholder approval. The 2025 Plan is intended to advance the Company’s interests by providing equity-based incentives to attract, retain, and motivate employees, officers, directors, and consultants. The plan authorizes the issuance of up to 800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and allows for a variety of award types, including stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares, and other stock-based awards. The 2025 Plan is administered by the Company’s Compensation and Human Resources Committee, which has broad authority to determine the terms of individual awards, including eligibility, size, vesting conditions, performance criteria, and other terms. Awards may generally not be transferred and are subject to forfeiture under certain conditions. The Company had 656,885 shares available for grant under the 2025 Plan as of March 31, 2026.

Stock-based compensation expense for restricted stock in the consolidated statements of operations is summarized as follows:

The Company grants restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to its board of directors as partial compensation. The 2026 RSUs vest annually. and are expensed on a straight-line basis. These RSUs will fully vest on January 10, 2027.

The following table summarizes activity related to outstanding RSUs for the three months ended March 31, 2026:

The Company grants shares of common stock (“Restricted Stock Awards” or “RSAs”) to select employees. These shares have various vesting dates, ranging from vesting on the grant date to as late asfour years from the date of grant. In the event that the employee’s employment is voluntarily terminated prior to certain vesting dates, portions of the shares may be forfeited. At March 31, 2026, the weighted average remaining amortization period was 2.2 years.

The following table summarizes activity related to outstanding Restricted Stock Awards for the three months ended March 31, 2026:

The Company grants shares of common stock (“Performance Restricted Stock Awards” or “PRSAs”) to select officers as part of our long-term incentive program that will result in that number of PRSAs being paid out if the target performance metric is achieved. The award vesting is based on specific performance metrics related to accounts payable delinquency, debt, and net income during the performance period. The PRSAs vest at 0% or 100% and all three metrics must be met to vest at 100%. The PRSAs granted under this program will vest on the fourth anniversary of the grant date, subject to the aforementioned performance criteria. At March 31, 2026, the weighted average remaining amortization period was 1.6 years.

The following table summarizes activity related to outstanding PRSAs for the three months ended March 31, 2026:

The fair value of all RSUs, PRSAs and RSAs is based on the closing price of our common stock on the grant date. All RSUs, PRSAs, and Restricted Stock Awards vest and settle in common stock (on a one-for-one basis).

As of March 31, 2026, unamortized stock-based compensation costs related to restricted share arrangements was $516,599.

Basic and diluted income(loss) per common share for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 iscomputed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding adjusted for the effect of unvested RSUs. Incremental shares of 177,769 were used in the calculation of diluted income per common share for the three months ended March 31, 2026. Incremental shares of 171,048 were not used in the calculation of diluted loss per common share for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as these shares were considered anti-dilutive.

On December 12, 2025, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan and Security Agreement”) with Western Alliance Bank (the “Bank”). The Loan and Security Agreement provides for a revolving line of credit in the maximum principal amount of $10,000,000 (the “Revolving Line”) and a term loan in the original principal amount of $10,000,000 (the “Term Loan” and, together with the Revolving Line, the “Credit Facilities”). WMI and Compac, have guaranteed the Company’s obligations under the Loan and Security Agreement.

Borrowings under the Credit Facilities bear interest at a variable rate equal to the 1-month Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus an applicable margin as set forth in the Loan and Security Agreement. During the continuance of an event of default, all outstanding obligations bear interest at a rate equal to 5% above the rate otherwise applicable.

The SOFR Rate was 3.7% as of March 31, 2026 and as such, the Company’s interest rate on the Revolving Line and Term Loan was 6.2% as of March 31, 2026.

The Credit Facilities mature on December 12, 2030. The Term Loan was funded in full on the closing date and is repayable in scheduled quarterly installments beginning on April 5, 2026. Maturities on long term debt are as follows:

Borrowings under the Revolving Line may be made, repaid and reborrowed from time to time before the maturity date, subject to the other conditions set forth in the Loan and Security Agreement. Voluntary prepayments of the Credit Facilities are permitted at any time without premium or penalty, other than customary breakage amounts, and the Loan and Security Agreement requires mandatory prepayments in certain circumstances.

The Loan and Security Agreement requires the Company to pay an unused commitment fee equal to 0.40% per annum on the unused portion of the Revolving Line and to pay fees and charges in connection with any letters of credit and any cash management services provided by the Bank and to reimburse the Bank’s expenses as provided in the Loan and Security Agreement.

The Company’s obligations under the Loan and Security Agreement, and the guaranties of WMI and Compac, are secured by a first-priority security interest in substantially all of the personal property assets of the Company and the guarantors, in each case subject to permitted liens and customary exclusions as set forth in the Loan and Security Agreement and related security documents.

The Loan and Security Agreement contains customary affirmative, negative and financial covenants. Among other things, these covenants impose limitations, subject to agreed exceptions, on the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, grant liens, make certain investments, dispose of assets, pay dividends and other restricted payments, enter into certain transactions with affiliates and effect certain mergers or other fundamental changes. The Loan and Security Agreement also includes quarterly tested financial covenants, including a minimum Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.25 to 1.00 and a maximum Funded Leverage Ratio that is initially 3.75 to 1.00 through December 31, 2026 and is reduced to 3.50 to 1.00 from January 1, 2027 onward, in each case as defined in and calculated under the Loan and Security Agreement.

The Loan and Security Agreement includes customary events of default, including payment defaults, covenant defaults, certain cross-defaults, certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, certain unsatisfied judgments, certain ERISA events and certain change-of-control events. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the Bank may, subject to the terms of the Loan and Security Agreement, declare all or a portion of the outstanding obligations under the Credit Facilities to be immediately due and payable, terminate the commitments and exercise other rights and remedies available to it, including with respect to the collateral.

On May 7, 2025, the Company submitted to The Boeing Company a Request for Equitable Pricing Adjustment on the Boeing A-10 program addressing higher manufacturing costs on its 2019 firm fixed price contract. Subsequently, on July 14, 2025, the Company received a Termination Notice from The Boeing Company with respect to the Boeing A-10 program directing the Company to scrap and return materials and tooling to the Air Force prior to August 15, 2025 when funding would no longer be available, as well as a claim for damages incurred by Boeing as a result of the alleged contract default. The Company continues to have correspondence with the Boeing Company over the termination of the Boeing A10 program. In light of these events, and in conjunction with the Air Force’s decision to accelerate the retirement of the Boeing A-10 fleet, the Company evaluated the situation and recognized an adjustment to its contract revenues and costs to address the contract termination during the quarter ended June 30, 2025. The Company will continue to evaluate the customers claim and will recognize any contingent losses, if required, in the period in which additional losses become both probable, and reasonably estimable.

The Company may be involved in various claims, suits, assessments, investigations, and legal proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of its business. The Company accrues a liability when it is both probable a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company reviews these accruals at least quarterly and adjusts them to reflect ongoing negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other relevant information. To the extent new information is obtained and the Company’s views on the probable outcomes of claims, suits, assessments, investigations, or legal proceedings change, changes in the Company’s accrued liabilities would be recorded in the period such determination is made. For some matters, the amount of liability is not probable or the amount cannot be reasonably estimated and, therefore, accruals have not been made.

Our CODM is our Chief Executive Officer, Dorith Hakim. The CODM reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of making operating decisions including the allocation of resources and assessing financial performance.

As the Company has onlyone operating segment and is managed on a consolidated basis, the measure of profit or loss is consolidated net income or loss, which include all significant expenses and assets as presented in the consolidated financial statements which is consistent with the information provided to the CODM. Refer to the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the financial information with respect to the Company’s single operating segment for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

New or increased economic and trade sanctions, including tariffs, may create economic and political uncertainties and could potentially impact the cost of our raw materials and subassemblies having an adverse effect on our business, operations and profitability. Although our supply chain predominantly consists of US based suppliers, and our material costs are established on issued purchase orders, future procurements may be impacted by economic and political uncertainties including tariffs, and may directly affect the Company’s profitability on previously negotiated Firm Fixed Price contracts.
