NOTES TO UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE A – DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS

 

Organization

 

AerSale Corp. (the “Company” or “AerSale”) is a Delaware holding company that conducts business through its wholly owned subsidiaries. Effective November 25, 2019, the Company restated its certificate of incorporation to amend its name from AerSale Holdings, Inc. to AerSale Corp. and its subsidiaries are the primary operating companies of AerSale Corp. The Company’s corporate headquarters are based in Miami, Florida, with additional offices, hangars and warehouses located throughout the world.

 

New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 Leases (Topic 842), which generally requires companies to recognize operating and financing lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use assets on the balance sheet. In July 2018, FASB issued ASU No. 2018-10, “Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases” and ASU No. 2018-11, “Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements.” Topic 842 will be effective for the Company during the first quarter of 2022 on a modified retrospective basis. Although early adoption is permitted, we plan to adopt Topic 842 during the first quarter of 2022. We are currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 (“ASU 2016-13”), “Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” In November 2018, FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses,” which amends the scope and transition requirements of ASU 2016-13. Topic 326 requires a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The measurement of expected credit losses is based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. Topic 326 will become effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2023, with early adoption permitted, on a modified retrospective basis. We are currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

NOTE B – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Interim Financial Statements

 

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared from the books and records of the Company in accordance with Accounting Principles Generally Accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), which permits reduced disclosures for interim periods. Although these interim consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required for complete annual consolidated financial statements, management believes all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and statements of operations and comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity and cash flows have been made. Unaudited interim results of operations and cash flows are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. Unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes included elsewhere in this proxy/prospectus statement, wherein a more complete discussion of significant accounting policies and certain other information can be found.

Revenue Recognition

 

Products – Used Serviceable Material Sales (“USM”)

 

Revenues from sales of USM are measured based on consideration specified within customer contracts, and excludes any sales commissions and taxes collected and remitted to government agencies. We recognize revenue when performance obligations are satisfied by transferring control of a product or service to a customer. The parts are sold at a fixed price with no right of return. In determining the performance obligation, management has identified the promise in the contract to be the shipment of the spare parts to the customer. Title passes to the buyer when the goods are shipped, the buyer is responsible for any loss in transit and the Company has a legal right to payment for the spare parts once shipped. We generally sell our USM products under standard 30-day payment terms, subject to certain exceptions. Customers neither have the right to return products nor do they have the right to extended financing. The Company has determined physical acceptance of the spare parts to be a formality in accordance with ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” Additionally, there is no impact to the timing and amounts of revenues recognized for spare part sales related to the implementation of ASC 606.

 

Spare parts revenue is based on a set price for a set number of parts as defined in the purchase order. The performance obligation is completed once the parts have shipped and as a result, all of the transaction price is allocated to that performance obligation. The Company has determined that it is appropriate to recognize spare parts sales at a point in time (i.e., the date the parts are shipped) in accordance with ASC 606.

 

Products – Whole Asset Sales

 

Revenues from whole asset sales are measured based on consideration specified in the contract with the customer. The Company and customer enter into an agreement which outlines the place and date of sale, purchase price, condition of the whole asset, bill of sale and the assignment of rights and warranties from the Company to the customer. The Company believes the whole asset holds standalone value to the customer as it is not dependent on any other services for functionality purposes and therefore is distinct within the context of the contract and as described in ASC 606-10. Accordingly, the Company has identified the transfer of the whole asset as the performance obligation. The transaction price is set at a fixed dollar amount per fixed quantity (number of whole assets) and is explicitly stated in each contract. Whole asset sales revenue is based on a set price for a set number of assets, which is allocated to the performance obligation discussed above, in its entirety. The Company has determined the date of transfer to the customer is the date the customer obtains control over the asset and would cause the revenue recognition. Payment is required in full upon customer's acceptance of the whole asset on the date of the transfer. As such, there is no impact to the timing and amounts of revenue recognized for whole asset sales related to the implementation of ASC 606.

 

Leasing Revenues

 

The Company leases flight equipment under operating leases that contain monthly base rent and reports rental income straight line over the life of the lease as it is earned. Additionally, the Company’s leases provide for supplemental rent, which is calculated based on actual hours or cycles of utilization and, for certain components, based on the amount of time until maintenance of that component is required. In certain leases, the Company records supplemental rent paid by the lessees as maintenance deposit payment liabilities in recognition of the Company’s contractual commitment to reimburse qualifying maintenance. Reimbursements to the lessees upon receipt of evidence of qualifying maintenance work are charged against the existing maintenance deposit payments liabilities. In leases where the Company is responsible for performing certain repairs or replacement of aircraft components or engines, supplemental rent is recorded as revenue in the period earned. In the event of premature lease termination or lessee default on the lease terms, revenue recognition will be discontinued when outstanding balances are beyond the customers’ deposits held. Payment terms for leased flight equipment is due upon receipt.

Service Revenues

 

Service revenues are recognized as performance obligations are fulfilled and the benefits are transferred to the customer. At contract inception, we evaluate if the contract should be accounted for as a single performance obligation or if the contract contains multiple performance obligations. In some cases, our service contract with the customer is considered one performance obligation as it includes factors such as the good or service being provided is significantly integrated with other promises in the contract, the service provided significantly modifies or customizes the other good or service or the goods or services are highly interdependent or interrelated with each other. If the contract has more than one performance obligation, the Company determines the standalone price of each distinct good or service underlying each performance obligation and allocates the transaction price based on their relative standalone selling prices. The transaction price of a contract, which can include both fixed and variable amounts, is allocated to each performance obligation identified. Some contracts contain variable consideration, which could include incremental fees or penalty provisions related to performance. Variable consideration that can be reasonably estimated based on current assumptions and historical information is included in the transaction price at the inception of the contract but limited to the amount that is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur. Variable consideration that cannot be reasonably estimated is recorded when known.

 

For most service contracts, performance obligations are satisfied over time as work progresses based on transfer of control of products and services to our customers. We receive payments from our customers based on billing schedules or contract terms.

 

For performance obligations that are satisfied over time, we measure progress in a manner that depicts the performance of transferring control to the customer. As such, we utilize the input method of cost-to-cost to recognize revenue over time as this depicts when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to the customer. Revenue is recognized based on the relationship of actual costs incurred to date to the estimated total cost at completion of the performance obligation. We are required to make certain judgments and estimates, including estimated revenues and costs, as well as inflation and the overall profitability of the arrangement. Key assumptions involved include future labor costs and efficiencies, overhead costs and ultimate timing of product delivery. Differences may occur between the judgments and estimates made by management and actual program results. Under most of our Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (“MRO”) contracts, if the contract is terminated for convenience, we are entitled to payment for items delivered, fair compensation for work performed, the costs of settling and paying other claims and a reasonable profit on the costs incurred or committed.

 

Changes in estimates and assumptions related to our arrangements accounted for using the input method based on labor hours are recorded using the cumulative catchup method of accounting. These changes are primarily adjustments to the estimated profitability for our long term programs where we provide MRO services.

 

We have elected to use certain practical expedients permitted under ASC 606. Shipping and handling fees and costs incurred associated with outbound freight after control over a product has transferred to a customer are accounted for as a fulfillment cost, are included in cost of sales in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and are not considered a performance obligation to our customers. Our reported sales on our condensed consolidated statements of operations are net of any sales or related non income taxes. We also utilize the “as invoiced” practical expedient in certain cases where performance obligations are satisfied over time and the invoiced amount corresponds directly with the value we are providing to the customer.

 

CARES Act

 

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) was signed into law on March 27, 2020 and was intended to assist the economy by issuing a relief package to preserve jobs in industries adversely impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak. On June 8, 2020, we entered into an agreement with the U.S. Department of the Treasury to receive $12,693,000 in emergency relief through the CARES Act payroll support program to be paid in installments through September 30, 2020. The proceeds of the grant are recorded within accrued expenses when received and are recognized as CARES Act proceeds in the statement of operations over the periods that the funds are intended to compensate. As of September 30, 2020, we received $12,693,000 in grant proceeds under the CARES Act payroll support program and the full amount has been recognized as CARES Act proceeds in the statement of operations.

 

-7-

 

 

In connection with this financial assistance, we are required to comply with certain provisions of the CARES Act, including the requirement that funds provided pursuant to the program be used exclusively for the continuation of payment of employee wages, salaries and benefits; the requirement against involuntary terminations and furloughs and reductions in employee pay rates and benefits from the signing date of the agreement through September 30, 2020, for which the Company is in compliance. In addition, the Company is subject to provisions prohibiting the repurchase of common stock and the payment of common stock dividends through September 30, 2021, and limitations on the payment of certain employee compensation through March 24, 2022. These restrictions may affect the Company’s operations and if the Company does not comply with these provisions, it may be required to reimburse up to 100% of the relief funds. If that is the case, the Company may take actions to mitigate the impact.

 

NOTE C – SIGNIFICANT RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

 

Impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19)

 

COVID-19 has been declared a global health pandemic by the World Health Organization. COVID-19 has impacted nearly all regions of the world, which has driven the implementation of significant, government-imposed measures to prevent or reduce its spread, including travel restrictions, the closing of borders, “shelter in place” orders and business closure. As a result, commercial airlines have experienced a decline in demand for air travel. The reduced number of aircraft in service and corresponding flying hours negatively impacts the demand for AerSale’s services, and prolonged reduction could materially and adversely affect AerSale’s business, operating results, financial condition, and liquidity.

 

An extended pandemic, or the threat thereof, could result in employee absenteeism leading to lower productivity in AerSale’s service locations, temporary closure of AerSale’s offices and facilities, travel restrictions for AerSale’s workforce and other voluntary actions that may result in business disruptions.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

Flight equipment held for operating leases is subject to fluctuations in value based on commercial aircraft and engines supply and demand. A material decrease in aircraft or engine values could have a downward impact on lease rentals and residual values and may require impairments to be taken on such assets. Additionally, impairment charges may be required to reduce the carrying value of inventory.

 

The nature of the Company’s business is capital intensive and demands significant capital requirements. To meet the Company’s current purchase commitments and future aircraft and engine acquisitions, the Company may need to (i) access committed debt facilities, and/or (ii) secure additional financing, and/or (iii) use existing available cash balances.

 

The Company is also subject to regulation by various governmental agencies with responsibilities over civil aviation. Increased regulations imposed by organizations such as the Federal Aviation Administration (“FAA”) may significantly affect industry operations.

 

The Company conducts business in certain foreign countries, some of which are politically unstable or subject to military or civil conflicts. Consequently, the Company is subject to a variety of risks such as civil strife, political risk, import and export regulations, compliance with foreign laws, treaties, regulations, uncertainties arising from foreign local business practices, cultural considerations, restriction on fund transfers and exposure to U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and other anti-bribery laws.

 

The Company periodically reviews the carrying values of trade receivables, inventory, long lived assets, the recoverable value of deferred tax assets, and the sufficiency of accruals and provisions, substantially all of which are sensitive to the above risks and uncertainties.

NOTE D – REVENUE

 

The timing of revenue recognition, customer billings and cash collections results in a contract asset or contract liability at the end of each reporting period. Contract assets consist of unbilled receivables or costs incurred where revenue recognized over time exceeds the amounts billed to customers. Contract liabilities include advance payments and billings in excess of revenue recognized. Certain customers make advance payments prior to the satisfaction of performance obligations on the contract. These amounts are recorded as contract liabilities until such performance obligations are satisfied. Contract assets and contract liabilities are determined on a contract by contract basis.

 

Contract assets are as follows:            
   September 30, 2020   December 31, 2019   Change 
Contract asset   $15,120,000   $7,925,000   $7,195,000 

 

Contract assets are reported within accounts receivable on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Changes in contract assets primarily results from the timing difference between our performance of services. Contract liabilities are reported as deferred revenue on our condensed consolidated balance sheets and amounted to $7,709,000 as of December 31, 2019, of which $7,213,000 was related to contract liabilities for services performed. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we recognized as revenue $7,138,000 of our contract liabilities for services performed as the timing between customer payments and our performance of the services is a short period of time and generally no longer than six months.

NOTE F – INTANGIBLE ASSETS

 

In accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other, goodwill and other intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are not amortized, but are subject to annual impairment tests. We review and evaluate our goodwill and indefinite life intangible assets for potential impairment at a minimum annually or more frequently if circumstances indicate that a potential impairment may have occurred.

 

We determined the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed using a variety of methods. An income approach based on discounted cash flows was used to determine the values of our trademarks, certifications, customer relationships and FAA certificates. The assumptions we used to estimate the fair value of our reporting units are based on historical performance, as well as forecasts used in our current business plan and require considerable management judgment

 

The Company’s goodwill and intangible assets as defined by ASC 350 is related to our subsidiaries, AerSale Component Solutions (ACS), Avborne Component Solutions (Avborne), and the newly acquired Aircraft Composite Technologies (ACT), which are included in the TechOps segment, as well as Qwest Air Parts, which is included under the Asset Management Solutions segment.

Such obligations are also secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company.

 

The interest rate applicable to loans outstanding on the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement is a floating rate of interest per annum of LIBOR plus a margin. In addition, a commitment fee applies to the unused portion of the commitments under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.

NOTE L – BUSINESS SEGMENTS

 

Consistent with how our chief operating decision maker (Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer) evaluates performance and utilizes gross profit as a profitability measure, we report our activities in two business segments:

 

Asset Management Solutions – comprised of activities to extract value from strategic asset acquisitions through leasing, trading, or disassembling for product sales
TechOps – comprised of MRO activities; and product sales of internally developed engineered solutions and other serviceable products.

 

The Asset Management Solutions segment provides short-term and long-term leasing solutions of aircraft and jet engines to passenger and cargo operators with activities around the globe. Assets considered to be at or near the end of their useful lives, as supplied by our leasing portfolio or acquisitions, are analyzed for return maximization to assess whether they will be traded as whole assets or disassembled and sold as individual spare parts and components.

 

The TechOps segment consists of aftermarket aviation support providing maintenance support for aircraft and aircraft components, as well as through sale of engineered solutions. Our MRO business also engages in longer term projects such as aircraft modifications, cargo conversions and aircraft storage. The segment also includes MRO of landing gear, thrust reversers and other components. Cost of services consists principally of the cost of product, direct labor and overhead. Our TechOps division will engage in the repair and sale of used serviceable materials through their ability to overhaul existing inventory. Our engineered solutions revenues consist of sales of internally developed products through the issuance of Supplemental Type Certificates (“STC”) by the FAA. These products are proprietary in nature and function as non-OEM solutions to Airworthiness Directives and other technical challenges for operators. In order to develop these products, we engage in research and development activities which are expensed as incurred.

 

The accounting policies for the segments are the same as those described in Note B. Gross profit is calculated by subtracting cost of sales from revenue. The assets and certain expenses related to corporate activities are not allocated to the segments. Our reportable segments are aligned principally around the differences in products and services. The segment reporting excludes the allocation of selling, general and administrative expenses, interest expense and income tax expense. Gross profit reported includes an additional inventory reserve of $12,888,000 and $4,619,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively (Note E); and an impairment of leased assets in the amount of $3,036,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 (Note H).

8.65% Cumulative Preferred Shares

 

The preferred stock was issued at a purchase price of $1,000 per share and ranks senior to common stock. The preferred stock has an initial liquidation preference equal to its $1,000 per share purchase price and accrues dividends at an annual rate of 8.65%. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up of the Company, the holders of the preferred stock will be entitled to receive, out of assets available for distribution to our stockholders and before any distribution of assets to our common stockholders, an amount equal to the then-current liquidation preference, which includes accrued and unpaid dividends. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, accrued dividends were $18,582,000 and $27,138,000, respectively. Effective July 31, 2020, all holders of the issued and outstanding 8.65% cumulative preferred shares agreed to waive $73,175,000 of liquidation preference. Through September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, cumulative, the aggregate liquidation preference was $239,182,000 and $293,775,000, respectively.
