AIR T, INC. FY23 Financial Highlights (For the Twelve-Month Period Ended 3/31/23) 10 FY Results ■ FY23 saw a 40% revenue increase across all segments. This includes a $44.0M increase in Commercial Jet Engines and Parts, which was driven by higher component sales due to more activity in the aviation industry. Overnight Air Cargo increased by $16.1M, mainly due to higher pass-through revenues and admin fees. A higher volume of trucks to the military and commercial customers led to Ground Equipment Sales increase by $6.2M. ■ FY23 operating income decreased by $13.1M. The decrease was primarily driven by $9.1M of ERC credits received in FY22 and increases of $7.0M in inventory write-downs and impairment. Overnight Air Cargo increased $1.3M year-over- year due to higher revenues offset by higher pilot salaries and aircraft lease costs. In addition, Commercial Jet Engines and Parts increased by $2.0M (excluding the inventory write-down and impairment) due to high component sales. FY23 FY22 FY21 FY20 Revenue $247.3M $177.1M $175.1M $236.8M Operating Income ($4.4M) $8.8M ($9.2M) $7.3M Adjusted EBITDA* $6.0M $11.4M ($1.3M) $9.0M *See Adjusted EBITDA reconciliation on slide 32

AIR T, INC. FY24 Q1 Financial Highlights (For the Three-Month Period Ended 6/30/23) 11 FY Results ■ FY24 Q1 saw a 40% revenue increase compared to FY23 Q1 year across all segments. This includes a $7.0M increase in Commercial Jet Engines and Parts, which was driven by higher component sales due to more activity in the aviation industry. Overnight Air Cargo increased by $7.2M, mainly due to higher pass-through revenues, admin fees and the addition of WASI to the segment. A higher volume of deicers to commercial customers led to Ground Equipment Sales increase by $6.0M. ■ FY24 Q1 operating income overall decreased by $0.1M to the comparable quarter of prior year. Overnight Air Cargo increased $0.9M year-over-year due to the higher revenues. However, these increases were offset by a $0.2M decrease in Ground Equipment Sales due to increased direct and overhead costs. Also, Commercial Jet Engines and Parts decreased by $1.6M due to lower margins from the teardowns of higher than historically priced aircraft.

Theoretical Toy Model Public Company versus Private Equity Fund 31 TOY MODEL ASSUMPTIONS Annual Return on Investment 5% Taxes Paid by PE Fund @ 7-year Intervals 30% Year Public Company $1 Private Equity Fund $1 Taxes Paid 0 $1.00 $1.00 $0.00 7 $1.34 $1.24 $0.10 14 $1.89 $1.59 $0.15 21 $2.65 $2.04 $0.19 28 $3.73 $2.63 $0.25 35 $5.25 $3.38 $0.32 42 $7.39 $4.34 $0.41 49 $10.40 $5.57 $0.53 Total $1.96 Question: Does a permanent capital vehicle like a public company have a structural advantage compared to a 7-year PE fund vehicle? Hypothesis: For the straightforward reason that PE funds trade assets every 7 years, the public companies tend to have a significant structural advantage at every timescale. Complicating Factors: • Do annual corporate tax burdens of a public C- corporation differ from a company owned by a public company? • Does the inherent churn of buying and selling businesses within a public company overstate the advantage vs PE Fund? • Theoretically, the public company can buy and sell assets without regards to the calendar, therefore at better prices. • Cost and burden of being a public company. Note: In this model we assume that assets are sold by the private equity fund every seven years and reinvested after paying capital gains taxes on the gain on the sale. It is also assumed that the Public Company does not sell the assets and therefore does not pay capital gains tax. The model does not consider taxes paid on operational results. This projection, forecast or estimate is a forward-looking statement and is based upon certain assumptions which are speculative in nature and may vary materially from actual results.

APPENDIX Risk Factors 36

SUMMARY RISK FACTORS 37 For more detail and explanation, please see the Company’s public filings including its Form S-3 and prospectus supplements filed with the SEC. The purchase of securities of Air T, Inc., the “Company,” is highly speculative and involves a very high degree of risk. An investment in the Company is suitable only for persons who can afford the loss of their entire investment. Accordingly, in making an investment decision with respect to the Company’s securities, investors should carefully consider all material risk factors, including the risks, uncertainties and additional information set forth below as well as set forth in (i) our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Currents Reports on Form 8-K, and our definitive proxy statements, all which are filed with the SEC, and (ii) our prospectus, filed as a part of our Registration Statement on Form S-3, which is filed with the SEC, and any supplement to the prospectus, including information in any documents subsequently incorporated by reference into the prospectus. Additional risks not presently known or are currently deemed immaterial could also materially and adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, business and prospects. General Business Risks ● Market fluctuations may affect our operations. ● Rising inflation may result in increased costs of operations and negatively impact the credit and securities markets generally, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and the market price of our common stock. ● We could experience significant increases in operating costs and reduced profitability due to competition for skilled management and staff employees in our operating businesses. ● Legacy technology systems require a unique technical skillset which is becoming scarcer. ● Security threats and other sophisticated computer intrusions could harm our information systems, which in turn could harm our business and financial results. ● We may not be able to insure certain risks adequately or economically. ● Legal liability may harm our business. ● Our business might suffer if we were to lose the services of certain key employees. ● Our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected by global public health issues or similar events. ● A pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of a contagious disease in the markets in which we operate or that otherwise impacts our centers could adversely impact our business.

Risks Related to Our Segment Operations ● The operating results of our four segments may fluctuate, particularly our commercial jet engine and parts segment. ● Our Air Cargo Segment is dependent on a significant customer. ● Our dry-lease agreements with FedEx subject us to operating risks. ● Because of our dependence on FedEx, we are subject to the risks that may affect FedEx’s operations. ● A material reduction in the aircraft we fly for FedEx could materially adversely affect our business and results of operations. ● Sales of deicing equipment can be affected by weather conditions. ● We are affected by the risks faced by commercial aircraft operators and MRO companies because they are our customers. ● Our engine values and lease rates, which are dependent on the status of the types of aircraft on which engines are installed, and other factors, could decline. ● Upon termination of a lease, we may be unable to enter into new leases or sell the airframe, engine or its parts on acceptable terms. ● Failures by lessees to meet their maintenance and recordkeeping obligations under our leases could adversely affect the value of our leased engines and aircraft which could affect our ability to re-lease the engines and aircraft in a timely manner following termination of the leases. ● We may experience losses and delays in connection with repossession of engines or aircraft when a lessee defaults. ● Our commercial jet engine and parts segment and its customers operate in a highly regulated industry and changes in laws or regulations may adversely affect our ability to lease or sell our engines or aircraft. ● Our aircraft, engines and parts could cause damage resulting in liability claims. ● We have risks in managing our portfolio of aircraft and engines to meet customer needs. ● Liens on our engines or aircraft could exceed the value of such assets, which could negatively affect our ability to repossess, lease or sell a particular engine or aircraft. ● In certain countries, an engine affixed to an aircraft may become an addition to the aircraft and we may not be able to exercise our ownership rights over the engine. ● Higher or volatile fuel prices could affect the profitability of the aviation industry and our lessees’ ability to meet their lease payment obligations to us. ● Interruptions in the capital markets could impair our lessees’ ability to finance their operations, which could prevent the lessees from complying with payment obligations to us. For more detail and explanation, please see the Company’s public filings including its Form S-3 and prospectus supplements filed with the SEC. SUMMARY RISK FACTORS 38

Risks Related to Our Segment Operations (continued) ● Our lessees may fail to adequately insure our aircraft or engines which could subject us to additional costs. ● If our lessees fail to cooperate in returning our aircraft or engines following lease terminations, we may encounter obstacles and are likely to incur significant costs and expenses conducting repossessions. ● If our lessees fail to discharge aircraft liens for which they are responsible, we may be obligated to pay to discharge the liens. ● If our lessees encounter financial difficulties and we restructure or terminate our leases, we are likely to obtain less ● favorable lease terms. ● Withdrawal, suspension or revocation of governmental authorizations or approvals could negatively affect our business. Risks Related to Our Structure and Financing/Liquidity Risks ● Our holding company structure may increase risks related to our operations. ● A small number of stockholders has the ability to control the Company. ● Although we do not expect to rely on the “controlled company” exemption, we may soon become a “controlled company” within the meaning of the Nasdaq listing standards, and we would qualify for exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements. ● An increase in interest rates or in our borrowing margin would increase the cost of servicing our debt and could reduce our cash flow and negatively affect the results of our business operations. ● Our inability to maintain sufficient liquidity could limit our operational flexibility and also impact our ability to make payments on our obligations as they come due. ● Future cash flows from operations or through financings may not be sufficient to enable the Company to meet its obligations. ● A large proportion of our capital is invested in physical assets and securities that can be hard to sell, especially if market conditions are poor. ● To service our debt and meet our other cash needs, we will require a significant amount of cash, which may not be available. ● If our cash flows and capital resources are insufficient to fund our debt service obligations, we may be forced to seek alternatives. ● The transition away from LIBOR may adversely affect our cost to obtain financing and may potentially negatively impact our interest rate swap agreements. ● Despite our substantial indebtedness, we may incur significantly more debt, and cash may not be available to meet our financial obligations when due or enable us to capitalize on investment opportunities when they arise. 39 For more detail and explanation, please see the Company’s public filings including its Form S-3 and prospectus supplements filed with the SEC. SUMMARY RISK FACTORS

Risks Related to Our Structure and Financing/Liquidity Risks (continued) ● Our current financing arrangements require compliance with financial and other covenants and a failure to comply with such covenants could adversely affect our ability to operate. ● Future acquisitions and dispositions of businesses and investments are possible, changing the components of our assets and liabilities, and if unsuccessful or unfavorable, could reduce the value of the Company and its securities. ● We face numerous risks and uncertainties as we expand our business. ● Our business strategy includes acquisitions, and acquisitions entail numerous risks, including the risk of management diversion and increased costs and expenses, all of which could negatively affect the Company’s ability to operate profitably. ● Strategic ventures may increase risks applicable to our operations. ● Rapid business expansions or new business initiatives may increase risk. ● Our policies and procedures may not be effective in ensuring compliance with applicable law. ● Compliance with the regulatory requirements imposed on us as a public company results in significant costs that may have an adverse effect on our results. ● Deficiencies in our public company financial reporting and disclosures could adversely impact our reputation. Risks Related to Environmental, Social, and Governance Issues ● Climate change, related legislative and regulatory responses to climate change, and the transition to a lower carbon economy may adversely affect our business. ● We are subject to risks from natural disasters such as earthquakes and severe weather (the frequency and severity of which may be impacted by climate change), which may include more frequent or severe storms, extreme temperatures and ambient temperature increases, hurricanes, flooding, rising sea levels, shortages of water, droughts and wildfires, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition. ● Environmentally hazardous conditions could potentially adversely affect us. ● We are subject to increasing scrutiny from investors and others regarding our environmental, social, governance, or sustainability responsibilities, which could result in additional costs or risks and adversely impact our reputation, associate retention, and ability to raise capital from such investors. 40 For more detail and explanation, please see the Company’s public filings including its Form S-3 and prospectus supplements filed with the SEC.
