MIAMI, FLORIDA, August 15, 2022 – Global Crossing Airlines Group, Inc. (JET: NEO; JET.B: NEO; JETMF: OTCQB) (the “Company” or “GlobalX”) today provided an update on its operations for second quarter of 2022 and a preview of Q3 2022. All dollar amounts are in United States dollars.

“Contrary to the second quarter typically being the weakest quarter for charters, GlobalX outperformed during the period with a 7% increase in revenue over Q1 2022 with the same number of aircraft,” said Ed Wegel, Chairman and CEO of GlobalX. “Our results included expenses related to C checks for three aircraft, as well as significant investments in pilot recruitment and training of approximately $2.7M in accordance with management’s decision to accelerate pilot hiring and training to maximize revenue in Q3 and Q4. We also continued to invest in our IT systems as part of our paperless airline initiative that is required to support future growth of approximately $1 million year to date.”

“We continued manuals and systems development needed for us to certify with the FAA to start flying revenue cargo charters with our A321 freighters in Q4 of this year. We continue to see intensely strong demand for this aircraft, and we will announce additional contracts in Q3 once finalized.”

“In Q3 we are continuing to make significant investments in additional aircraft, with one A321 and one A321F being added, and in crews and systems to facilitate this growth as we focus on the execution of our business plan for passenger charters, and soon to be launched cargo business.”

Mr. Wegel further added: “We project reaching operating profitability in Q3 and demand continues to increase for our product as we gain a reputation for on time and reliable service, as demonstrated by the contracting of several high-profile music tours being flown in Q3 2022. We will seek to continue acceleration of pilot recruiting and training to allow us to maximize revenue flight hours. In addition, the launch of our Cargo operation in Q4, powered by our A321F fleet which will all be delivered over the next 30 months, will drive sustained growth and profitability.”

Second Quarter 2022 Results

During first quarter of 2022, GlobalX operated a total 2,132 block hours with revenues of $17.4M. Revenue was impacted by a greater portion of flights operated on an ACMI basis versus full contract basis. For frame of reference, an ACMI hour generally generates 36% less revenue than a full contract hour, mainly due to the exclusion of fuel costs from an ACMI operated hour. The net loss for the quarter was $6.8 million, and GlobalX ended the quarter with $5.3 million in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash. Operating losses during the quarter were driven by the investments necessary to continue the scaling of flight operations. Due to planned maintenance GlobalX operated an average of 5.8 aircraft for a total of 527 aircraft days available for sale, which is a slight reduction from the Q1 aircraft days available for sale of 540.

2022 Outlook

Looking forward to the full year of 2022, GlobalX reaffirms its expectation to see over $90 Million in revenue as it adds additional aircraft and launches its cargo operations. GlobalX is expecting operating income to be positive in Q3 2022, subject to increased pilot hiring and training and systems development.

The foregoing guidance is based on management’s current views with respect to operating and market conditions and customer forecasts. Actual results may differ materially from what is provided here today as a result of, among other things, the factors described under “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” below.

For full details of the 2022 Q2 financial results, management’s discussion and analysis of financial results and consolidated financial statements and notes for the six months ended June 30^th, 2022, will be available in the Company’s Quarter Report on Form 10-Q that will be filed on EDGAR and under the Company’s SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP).
