Exhibit 99.1
WHEELS UP EXPERIENCE INC.
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
On September 30, 2023 (the “Closing Date”), Wheels Up Partners Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“WUP”) and a direct subsidiary of Wheels Up Experience Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company” or “Wheels Up”), completed the disposition of 100% of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Circadian Aviation LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Circadian”) and a direct subsidiary of WUP (such disposition, the “Circadian Sale”), pursuant to an Equity Purchase Agreement, dated as of the Closing Date (the “Purchase Agreement”), by and between WUP and Executive AirShare LLC (the “Purchaser”). Concurrently with entering into the Purchase Agreement: (i) WUP entered into a transition services agreement with Circadian, pursuant to which WUP will provide Circadian certain specified services on a temporary basis; (ii) Wheels Up Partners LLC, an indirect subsidiary of the Company (“WUP LLC”), entered into a master operating agreement with Circadian, pursuant to which Circadian will conduct certain on-demand charter operations for certain of WUP LLC’s owned aircraft after the Closing Date while such aircraft are transitioned from a U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (“FAA”) operating certificate held by Circadian to the Company’s subsidiaries, and WUP LLC will provide certain maintenance, pilots services, management and other related services for WUP LLC’s owned aircraft during the transition period; and (iii) certain of the Company’s subsidiaries entered into fleet management agreements with Circadian, pursuant to which Circadian will provide certain maintenance, pilots services, management and other related services for managed aircraft after the Closing Date while they are transitioned from a FAA operating certificate held by the applicable Company subsidiary to Circadian. The Circadian Sale, when taken together with certain post-closing agreements and covenants, including those in the preceding sentence, resulted in the disposition of the Company’s non-core aircraft management business (the “Aircraft Management Business” and such transactions, collectively the “Divestiture”).
As of the Closing Date, the fair value of the aggregate consideration transferred was $19.1 million and was subject to a post-closing final working capital adjustment under the terms of the Purchase Agreement. The $19.1 million of consideration was comprised of $13.2 million of cash received on the Closing Date, contingent consideration with a fair value of $4.8 million, an escrow receivable of $0.6 million and a non-contingent consideration receivable of $0.5 million. The fair value of the contingent consideration for the Divestiture was deemed to be the approximate contract value as of the Closing Date.
The Company determined that the Divestiture is considered a disposition of a significant business under Rule 1-02(w) of Regulation S-X and does not meet the criteria requiring discontinued operations presentation in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are based on the historical consolidated financial statements of the Company, and in the opinion of management, all adjustments and disclosures have been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. All adjustments shown are transaction accounting adjustments and do not reflect the potential uses of proceeds, synergies, and or dis-synergies that may be derived in future periods.
The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2023, has been prepared as if the Divestiture, as described in the notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements included herein, had occurred on June 30, 2023. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and for the year ended December 31, 2022, have been prepared as if the Divestiture occurred on January 1, 2022, in that they reflect the removal of the Aircraft Management Business for all periods presented.
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information reflects certain assumptions, estimates and accounting adjustments that the Company’s management believes are reasonable under the circumstances and necessary to present fairly the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2023, and the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2022, in each case as of the date of the Current Report on Form 8-K to which this unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information is filed as Exhibit 99.1. Certain amounts presented herein are estimates or involve subjective or complex judgments, which required the Company’s management to make assumptions with respect to values or conditions, including regarding the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain, in accordance with the Company’s accounting policies. Such assumptions, estimates and accounting adjustments are described in the accompanying notes, which should be read together with the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information.
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information has been provided for informational purposes only and does not purport to project the future or historical financial position or results of operations of the Company, Circadian or the Aircraft Management Business on a stand-alone basis. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information presented herein is not necessarily indicative of the Company’s future consolidated results of operations, cash flows, liquidity or financial condition. The actual results of the Company may differ significantly from those reflected herein.
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information and the accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the Company's historical financial statements and accompanying notes included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2023.

NOTES TO THE PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1.BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements give effect to the pro forma adjustments necessary to reflect the Divestiture as if the transaction had occurred on June 30, 2023 for the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet and as of January 1, 2022 for each of the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and year ended December 31, 2022.
2.PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS
(a)To reflect adjustments to remove the historical results of the Aircraft Management Business, assuming the Divestiture occurred on June 30, 2023.
(b)To adjust for the fair value of the aggregate consideration transferred as of the Closing Date inclusive of working capital adjustments and net of transaction and other associated costs incurred by Wheels Up pursuant to the Divestiture that are not already reflected in the historical results. The use of the proceeds from the Divestiture is not reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet, because such uses are not contractually committed or estimable.
(c)To adjust for the transaction and other associated costs incurred by Wheels Up pursuant to the Divestiture that are not already reflected in the historical results. All such costs were incurred and included and reflected in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended September 30, 2023.
(d)To remove the estimated pre-tax gain resulting from the Divestiture of $0.4 million, which is subject to customary closing adjustments under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, as well as the effect of the transaction accounting adjustments, as noted herein.
(e)To reflect adjustments to remove the historical results of the Aircraft Management Business, assuming the Divestiture occurred on January 1, 2022.
(f)To adjust for the estimated pre-tax gain resulting from the Divestiture, which is subject to customary closing adjustments under the terms of the Purchase Agreement.
(g)There are no income tax impacts related to the pro forma adjustments reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022. Wheels Up, the United States legal entity holding the divested entity, has sufficient current year losses and net operating loss carryforwards available to allow us to fully offset the estimated gain for tax purposes.
