NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

1.

INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The condensed financial statements of CPI Aerostructures, Inc. (the “Company”) as of September 30, 2018 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading.

The condensed balance sheet at December 31, 2017 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. 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 condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. 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.

The Company maintains its cash in two financial institutions. The balances are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. From time to time, the Company’s balances may exceed these limits. As of September 30, 2018, the Company had $748,470 of uninsured balances. The Company limits its credit risk by selecting financial institutions considered to be highly creditworthy.

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”) using the modified retrospective method for all of its contracts. ASC 606 requires sales and gross profit to be recognized over the contract period as work is performed based on the relationship between actual costs incurred and total estimated costs at the completion of the contract. Recognized revenues that will not be billed under the terms of the contract until a later date are recorded as an asset captioned “Contract assets.” Contracts where billings to date have exceeded recognized revenues are recorded as a liability captioned “Contract liabilities.” Changes to the original estimates may be required during the life of the contract. Estimates are reviewed monthly and the effect of any change in the estimated gross margin percentage for a contract is reflected in revenue in the period the change becomes known. ASC 606 involves considerable use of estimates in determining revenues, costs and profits and in assigning the amounts to accounting periods. As a result, there can be a significant disparity between earnings (both for accounting and tax purposes) as reported and actual cash received during any reporting period. The Company continually evaluates all of the issues related to the assumptions, risks and uncertainties inherent with the process; however, it cannot be assured that estimates will be accurate. If estimates are not accurate or a contract is terminated, the Company is required to adjust revenue in later periods. Furthermore, even if estimates are accurate, there may be a shortfall in cash flow and the Company may need to borrow money, or seek access to other forms of liquidity, to fund its work in process or to pay taxes until the reported earnings materialize as actual cash receipts.

| 7 |

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

When changes are required for the estimated total revenue on a contract, these changes are recognized with an inception-to-date effect in the current period. Also, when estimates of total costs to be incurred exceed estimates of total revenue to be earned, a provision for the entire loss on the contract is recorded in the period in which the loss is determined.

Following the adoption of ASC 606, the Company’s revenue recognition for all of its contracts remained materially consistent with historical practice and there was no material impact in the nine months ended September 30, 2018 condensed financial statements upon adoption.

In compliance with ASC 606, costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts, on the December 31, 2017 condensed balance sheet, have been reclassified to contract assets. Additionally, billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts and contract losses, on the December 31, 2017 condensed balance sheet, have been combined and reclassified to contract liabilities.

aCCOUNTING STANDARDS

Recently Issued but not Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” The updated guidance requires lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for most operating leases. In addition, the updated guidance requires that lessors separate lease and non-lease components in a contract in accordance with the new revenue guidance in ASC 606. ASU 2016-02 will be effective January 1, 2019, although early adoption is permitted. On July 30, 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, which, among other things, allows companies to elect an optional transition method to apply the new lease standard through a cumulative-effect adjustment in the period of adoption. We expect to adopt the standard on January 1, 2019 using the optional transition method. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of adopting ASU 2016-02 and expect to have an estimate of the impact of ASU 2016-02 on the Company’s financial position during the fourth quarter of 2018. Topic ASU 2016-02 also requires expanded disclosure regarding the amounts, timing and uncertainties of cash flows related to a company’s leases. The Company is evaluating these disclosure requirements and are incorporating the collection of relevant data into our processes.

3.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

The majority of the Company’s revenues are from long-term contracts with the U.S. government and commercial contractors. The contracts with the U.S. government typically are subject to the Federal Acquisition Regulation (“FAR”) which provides guidance on the types of costs that are allowable in establishing prices for goods and services provided under U.S. government contracts. The pricing for commercial contractors are based on the specific negotiations with each customer.

The Company accounts for a contract when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable.

To determine the proper revenue recognition method, the Company evaluates whether two or more contracts should be combined and accounted for as one single contract and whether the combined or single contract should be accounted for as more than one performance obligation. This evaluation requires significant judgment and the decision to combine a group of contracts or separate the combined or single contract into multiple performance obligations could change the amount of revenue and profit recorded in a given period.

| 8 |

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

All of the Company’s current long-term contracts have a single performance obligation as the promise to transfer the goods or services is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contracts and, therefore, not distinct. The Company’s contracts are often modified to account for changes in contract specifications and requirements. The Company considers contract modifications to exist when the modification either creates new or changes the existing enforceable rights and obligations. All of the Company’s contract modifications are for goods or services that are not distinct from the existing contract due to the significant integration service provided in the context of the contract and are accounted for as if they were part of that existing contract. The effect of a contract modification on the transaction price and the measure of progress for the performance obligation to which it relates, is recognized as an adjustment to revenue (either as an increase in or a reduction of revenue) on a cumulative catch-up basis.

Revenues for the Company’s long-term contracts are recognized over time as the Company performs its obligations because of continuous transfer of control to the customer. The continuous transfer of control to the customer is supported by clauses in contracts that either allow the customer to unilaterally terminate the contract for convenience, pay the Company for costs incurred plus a reasonable profit and the products and services have no alternative use or the customer controls the work in progress.

Because of control transferring over time, revenue is recognized based on the extent of progress towards completion of the performance obligation. The selection of the method to measure progress towards completion requires judgment and is based on the nature of the products or services to be provided. The Company uses the cost-to-cost input method to measure progress for its contracts because it best depicts the transfer of assets to the customer which occurs as the Company incurs costs on its contracts.

In applying the cost-to-cost input method, the Company compares the actual costs incurred relative to the total estimated costs to determine its progress towards contract completion and to calculate the corresponding amount of estimated revenue and estimated gross profit recognized. For any costs incurred that do not contribute to a performance obligation, the Company excludes such costs from its input methods of revenue recognition as the amounts are not reflective in transferring control of the asset to the customer. Costs to fulfill include labor, materials and subcontractors’ costs, other direct costs and an allocation of indirect costs.

Changes to the original estimates may be required during the life of the contract. Estimates are reviewed monthly and the effect of any change in the estimated gross margin for a contract is reflected in revenue in the period the change becomes known. Contract estimates involve considerable use of estimates in determining revenues, costs and profits and in assigning the amounts to accounting periods. As a result, there can be a significant disparity between earnings (both for accounting and tax purposes) as reported and actual cash received during any reporting period. The Company continually evaluates all of the issues related to the assumptions, risks and uncertainties inherent with the application of the cost-to-cost input method; however, it cannot be assured that estimates will be accurate. If estimates are not accurate or a contract is terminated, the Company is required to adjust revenue in later periods. Furthermore, even if estimates are accurate, there may be a shortfall in cash flow and the Company may need to borrow money, or seek access to other forms of liquidity, to fund its work in process or to pay taxes until the reported earnings materialize as actual cash receipts.

For the Company’s uncompleted contracts, contract assets include unbilled amounts and when the estimated revenues recognized exceeds the amount billed to the customer and right to payment is not just subject to the passage of time. Amounts may not exceed their net realizable value. Contract assets are classified as current. The Company’s contract liabilities consist of billings in excess of estimated revenues recognized and contract losses. Contract liabilities are classified as current. The Company’s contract assets and liabilities are reported in a gross position at the end of each reporting period.

Revenue recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, that was included in the contract liabilities at July 1, 2018 and January 1, 2018 was $151,109 and $399,381, respectively.

The Company’s remaining performance obligations represents the transaction price of its long-term contracts for which work has not been performed. As of September 30, 2018, the aggregate amount of transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations was $77,440,322. The Company estimates that it expects to recognize approximately 31% of its remaining performance obligations in 2018 and 69% in 2019.

In addition, the Company recognizes revenue for parts supplied for certain maintenance repair and overhaul (“MRO”) contracts at a point in time following the transfer of control to the customer, which typically occurs upon shipment or delivery depending on the terms of the underlying contract.

Revenue from long-term contracts transferred to customers over time and revenue from MRO contracts transferred at a point in time accounted for approximately 95% and 5%, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Revenue by long-term contract type for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 is as follows:

Derivative Instruments and Fair Value

Our use of derivative instruments has been to hedge interest rates. These derivative contracts are entered into with a financial institution. We do not use derivative instruments for trading purposes and we have procedures in place to monitor and control their use.

We record these derivative financial instruments on the condensed balance sheets at fair value. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.

Any ineffective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument for a cash flow hedge is recorded in the results of operations immediately. For derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments, the gain or loss is recognized in the results of operations immediately.

In May 2016, the Company entered into an interest rate swap with the objective of reducing its exposure to cash flow volatility arising from interest rate fluctuations associated with certain debt. The notional amount, maturity date, and currency of this contract match those of the underlying debt. The Company has designated this interest rate swap contract as a cash flow hedge. The Company measures ineffectiveness by comparing the cumulative change in the forward contact with the cumulative change in the hedged item.

Fair Value

At September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the fair values of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximated their carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

|  | September 30, 2018 |
|  | Carrying Amount |  |  | Fair Value |
Debt |  |  |  |  |  |
Short-term borrowings and long-term debt |  | $ | 35,694,028 |  |  | $ | 35,694,028 |

|  | December 31, 2017 |
|  | Carrying Amount |  |  | Fair Value |
Debt |  |  |  |  |  |
Short-term borrowings and long-term debt |  | $ | 31,893,894 |  |  | $ | 31,893,894 |

We estimated the fair value of debt using market quotes and calculations based on market rates.

| 12 |

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

The following table presents the fair values of those financial liabilities measured on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2017:

|  |  |  |  | Fair Value Measurements December 31, 2017 |
Description |  | Total |  |  | Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) |  |  | Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) |  |  | Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) |
Interest Rate Swap, net |  | $ | 18,781 |  |  |  | — |  |  | $ | 18,781 |  |  |  | — |
Total |  | $ | 18,781 |  |  |  | — |  |  | $ | 18,781 |  |  |  | — |

The fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap was determined by comparing the fixed rate set at the inception of the transaction to the “replacement swap rate,” which represents the market rate for an offsetting interest rate swap with the same notional amounts and final maturity date. The market value is then determined by calculating the present value of the interest differential between the contractual swap and the replacement swap.

As of December 31, 2017, $18,781 was included in other liabilities related to the fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap $15,000, net of tax of approximately $4,000, respectively, was included in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

During the month of June, the interest rate swap matured and the Company realized a net gain of approximately $7,000.

| (1) | On January 1, 2018, as a result of the adoption of ASC 606, the Company reclassified costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts to contract assets and billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts to contract liabilities.

| 13 |

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

The increase or decrease in the Company’s net contract assets (liabilities) from January 1, 2018 to September 30, 2018 was primarily due to costs incurred on newer programs, like the new design of the HondaJet engine inlet ($2.4 million increase), for which the Company has not begun billing on a steady rate. Additionally, we experienced some delays in shipping on the G650 program which increased contract assets by $5.8 million. This has been offset by a decrease in contract assets on our E-2D program ($4.2 million decrease) which is shipping on a regular schedule.

U.S. government contracts includes contracts directly with the U.S. government and government subcontractors.

Revisions in the estimated gross profits on contracts and contract amounts are made in the period in which the circumstances requiring the revisions occur. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the effect of such revisions in total estimated contract profits resulted in a decrease to the total gross profit to be earned on the contracts of approximately $683,000 from that which would have been reported had the revised estimates been used as the basis of recognition of contract profits in prior years. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the effect of such revisions was a decrease to total gross profit of approximately $1.7 million.

Although management believes it has established adequate procedures for estimating costs to uncompleted open contracts, it is possible that additional significant costs could occur on contracts prior to completion.

7.

income PER COMMON SHARE

Basic income per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted income per common share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding adjusted for the incremental shares attributed to outstanding options to purchase common stock, as well as unvested RSUs. Incremental shares of 49,641 were used in the calculation of diluted income per common share in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. Incremental shares of 43,064 were not used in the calculation of diluted income per common share in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, as their exercise price was in excess of the Company’s average stock price for the respective period and, accordingly, these shares are not assumed to be exercised for the diluted earnings per share calculation, as they would be anti-dilutive. Incremental shares of 74,168 were used in the calculation of diluted income per common share in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017. Incremental shares of 89,466 were not used in the calculation of diluted income per common share in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, as their exercise price was in excess of the Company’s average stock price for the respective period and, accordingly, these shares are not assumed to be exercised for the diluted earnings per share calculation, as they would be anti-dilutive.

Legal Proceedings

On July 5, 2018, the Company filed a complaint in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, against Air Industries Group (“Air Industries”) relating to the previously announced Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 21, 2018 (the “Agreement”) between the Company and Air Industries, pursuant to which Air Industries agreed to sell to us all of the shares of capital stock of its subsidiary, Welding Metallurgy, Inc. (“WMI”). The complaint alleges, among other things, that Air Industries willfully breached its contractual obligation to provide financial information required to fulfill key conditions for closing under the Agreement. Air Industries’ answer and counterclaims, filed on July 30, 2018, denies the allegations made by the Company in the complaint and alleges that the Company breached the Agreement and the covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

On July 31, 2018, the Company filed a motion for preliminary injunction against Air Industries. The motion argued that the failure by Air Industries to provide financial data and other information necessary to close the transaction contemplated by the Agreement would cause irreparable injury to the Company. The Company sought an order directing Air Industries to furnish the Company with all previously requested financial, operating, and other data and information relating to WMI.

See Note 12 Subsequent Events for further information subsequent to September 30, 2018 related to this litigation. In addition, for a discussion of the risks and uncertainties associated with this litigation and with the acquisition of WMI.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Litigation

On October 2, 2018, the Company entered into a court-ordered stipulation (the “Stipulation and Order”) with Air Industries with respect to the litigation discussed above in Note 11 Legal Proceedings.

As part of the Stipulation and Order, Air Industries has withdrawn its purported termination of the Agreement. Among other things, the Stipulation and Order requires Air Industries to deliver to the Company within 45 days audited, unqualified financial statements of WMI for 2017 certified by Air Industries’ auditor. Subject to fulfillment of other conditions to closing set forth in the Agreement, the parties agreed that the acquisition will close within three weeks after the Company receives the audited financial statements. The Company also agreed to promptly amend the Agreement to reflect the terms of the Stipulation and Order. The Court will retain jurisdiction of the case for all purposes, including enforcing the terms of the Stipulation and Order.

On November 9, 2018, the Court ordered an amendment to the Agreement (the “Amendment”). The Amendment provides that Rotenberg Meril Solomon Bertiger Gutilla, P.C. (“RM”) will replace CohnReznick LLP as auditors of WMI’s financial statements, consisting of the balance sheet as at December 31, 2017 and the related statements of income, retained earnings, stockholder’s equity, and cash flows for the year then ended. The Amendment provides that RM’s auditor’s report shall be delivered on or before November 16, 2018, and shall be unqualified in all respects, except that a “going concern” opinion will be considered unqualified. The Company and Air Industries agreed to share equally all fees and expenses charged by RM and all fees and expenses previously charged by CohnReznick LLP.

Public Offering

On October 19, 2018 the Company completed an underwritten public offering of 2,760,000 shares of its common stock, including 360,000 shares pursuant to the underwriters’ full exercise of their over-allotment option, at a public offering price of $6.25 per share. The Company’s net proceeds from the offering, after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions, and other offering expenses, were approximately $16.10 million. The Company anticipates using the net proceeds for general corporate purposes, which may include working capital, capital expenditures, debt repayment, or strategic acquisitions.

On October 19, 2018, the Company used $4.1 million of the net offering proceeds for prepayments of loans under the BankUnited Facility, as amended, including $1.2 million applied to the term loan and $2.9 million applied to the revolving line of credit.

BankUnited Facility

On November 9, 2018, BankUnited, N.A., as Sole Arranger, Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, and Lender, and Citizens Bank, N.A., as Lender, agreed to waive the Company’s non-compliance with the leverage ratio financial covenant of the BankUnited Facility as of September 30, 2018.

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, each of which speaks only as of the date made. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical earnings and those presently anticipated or projected. The risks are included in Item 1A - Risk Factors of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 and Item 2 - Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in this Form 10-Q.

Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Backlog

We produce custom assemblies pursuant to long-term contracts and customer purchase orders. Backlog consists of aggregate values under such contracts and purchase orders, excluding the portion previously included in operating revenues pursuant to ASC 606, and including estimates of future contract price escalation. Substantially all of our backlog is subject to termination at will and rescheduling, without significant penalty. Funds are often appropriated for programs or contracts on a yearly or quarterly basis, even though the contract may call for performance that is expected to take a number of years. Therefore, our funded backlog does not include the full value of our contracts. Our total backlog as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was as follows:

Backlog (Total) |  | September 30, 2018 |  |  | December 31, 2017 |
Funded |  | $ | 71,814,000 |  |  | $ | 71,059,000 |
Unfunded |  |  | 370,420,000 |  |  |  | 317,667,000 |
Total |  | $ | 442,234,000 |  |  | $ | 388,726,000 |

Approximately 83% of the total amount of our backlog at September 30, 2018 was attributable to government contracts. Our backlog attributable to government contracts at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was as follows:

Backlog (Government) |  | September 30, 2018 |  |  | December 31, 2017 |
Funded |  | $ | 64,097,000 |  |  | $ | 58,919,000 |
Unfunded |  |  | 302,234,000 |  |  |  | 242,367,000 |
Total |  | $ | 366,331,000 |  |  | $ | 301,286,000 |

Our backlog attributable to commercial contracts at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was as follows:

Backlog (Commercial) |  | September 30, 2018 |  |  | December 31, 2017 |
Funded |  | $ | 7,717,000 |  |  | $ | 12,140,000 |
Unfunded |  |  | 68,186,000 |  |  |  | 75,300,000 |
Total |  | $ | 75,903,000 |  |  | $ | 87,440,000 |

Our unfunded backlog is primarily comprised of the long-term contracts for the G650, E-2D, F-16, T-38, F-35, HondaJet Light Business Jet, Bell AH-1Z, Sikorsky S-92 and Embraer Phenom 300. These long-term contracts are expected to have yearly orders, which will be funded in the future.

The low level of funded backlog on commercial programs is the result of customers placing funded orders based upon expected lead time. These programs are under long-term agreements with our customers, and as such, we are protected by termination liability provisions.

Critical Accounting Policies

Revenue Recognition

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”) using the modified retrospective method for all of its contracts. ASC 606 requires sales and gross profit to be recognized over the contract period as work is performed based on the relationship between actual costs incurred and total estimated costs at the completion of the contract. Recognized revenues that will not be billed under the terms of the contract until a later date are recorded as an asset captioned “Contract assets.” Contracts where billings to date have exceeded recognized revenues are recorded as a liability captioned “Contract liabilities.” Changes to the original estimates may be required during the life of the contract. Estimates are reviewed monthly and the effect of any change in the estimated gross margin percentage for a contract is reflected in cost of sales in the period the change becomes known. ASC 606 involves considerable use of estimates in determining revenues, costs and profits and in assigning the amounts to accounting periods. As a result, there can be a significant disparity between earnings (both for accounting and tax purposes) as reported and actual cash received during any reporting period. The Company continually evaluates all of the issues related to the assumptions, risks and uncertainties inherent with the process; however, it cannot be assured that estimates will be accurate. If estimates are not accurate or a contract is terminated, the Company is required to adjust revenue in later periods. Furthermore, even if estimates are accurate, there may be a shortfall in cash flow and the Company may need to borrow money, or seek access to other forms of liquidity, to fund its work in process or to pay taxes until the reported earnings materialize as actual cash receipts.

When changes are required for the estimated total revenue on a contract, these changes are recognized with an inception-to-date effect in the current period. Also, when estimates of total costs to be incurred exceed estimates of total revenue to be earned, a provision for the entire loss on the contract is recorded in the period in which the loss is determined.

Following the adoption of ASC 606, the Company’s revenue recognition for all of its contracts remained materially consistent with historical practice and there was no impact in the nine months ended September 30, 2018 condensed financial statements upon adoption.

In compliance with ASC 606, costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts, on the December 31, 2017 condensed balance sheet, have been reclassified to contract assets. Additionally, billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts and contract losses, on the December 31, 2017 condensed balance sheet, have been combined and reclassified to contract liabilities.

Results of Operations

Revenue

Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was $19,944,558 compared to $20,706,460 for the same period last year, a decrease of $761,902 or 3.7%. This decrease is predominantly the result of the wind-down of our current Northrop Grumman E-2D multi-year program as we begin transitioning to a new multi-year contract, partially offset by increased revenue from our prime contracts direct with the U.S. Government for F-16 components and T-38 kits..

Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $58,397,420 compared to $57,471,112 for the same period last year, an increase of $926,308 or 1.6%. This increase is predominantly the result of ramping up of the next generation jammer pod program and the production of T-38 kits, offset by a normal cyclical decrease in revenue on the Company’s E-2D programs for both domestic and foreign sales.

Revenue from government subcontracts was $9,516,799 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $10,766,036 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, a decrease of $1,249,237 or 11.6%. The decrease in revenue is predominantly the result of a normal cyclical decrease in revenue on the Company’s E-2D programs for both domestic and foreign sales, offset by the ramping up of the next generation jammer pod program.

Revenue from government subcontracts was $28,228,457 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $33,018,118 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, a decrease of $4,789,661 or 14.5%. The decrease in revenue is predominantly the result of a normal cyclical decrease in revenue on the Company’s E-2D programs for both domestic and foreign sales, offset by the ramping up of the next generation jammer pod program.

Revenue from direct military was $2,891,062 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $2,567,947 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $323,115. The increase in revenue is primarily driven by an increase in revenue from T-38 kits.

Revenue from direct military was $7,804,984 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $2,973,927 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $4,831,057. The increase in revenue is primarily driven by an increase in revenue from T-38 kits.

Revenue from commercial subcontracts was $7,536,697 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $7,372,477 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $164,220 or 2.2%.

Revenue from commercial subcontracts was $22,363,979 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $21,479,067 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $884,912 or 4.1%.

Inflation historically has not had a material effect on our operations.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 was $15,146,080 and $15,794,024, respectively, a decrease of $647,944 or 4.1%. This decrease is the result of the comparable decrease in revenue.

Cost of sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 was $44,964,256 and $44,337,414, respectively, an increase of $626,842 or 1.4%. This increase is the result of the comparable increase in revenue.

| 21 |

Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The components of the cost of sales were as follows:

|  | Three Months Ended |  |  | Nine Months Ended |
|  | September 30, 2018 |  |  | September 30, 2017 |  |  | September 30 2018 |  |  | September 30, 2017 |
Procurement |  | $ | 9,606,143 |  |  | $ | 10,709,002 |  |  | $ | 28,551,130 |  |  | $ | 28,613,115 |
Labor |  |  | 1,490,227 |  |  |  | 1,666,176 |  |  |  | 4,737,522 |  |  |  | 5,252,745 |
Factory overhead |  |  | 4,100,162 |  |  |  | 3,766,974 |  |  |  | 11,729,044 |  |  |  | 11,554,680 |
Other contract costs |  |  | (50,452 | ) |  |  | (348,128 | ) |  |  | (53,440 | ) |  |  | (1,083,126 | )
Cost of Sales |  | $ | 15,146,080 |  |  | $ | 15,794,024 |  |  | $ | 44,964,256 |  |  | $ | 44,337,414 |

Other contract costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 were $(53,440) compared to $(1,083,126), an increase of $1,029,686. Other contract costs for the three months ended September 30, 2018 were $(50,452) compared to $(348,128), an increase of $297,676. Other contract costs relate to expenses recognized for changes in estimates and expenses predominately associated with loss contracts. In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, other contract costs are a credit, as we have incurred actual expenses on our A-10 program that had been previously recognized as part of the change in estimate charge.

Procurement for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $28,551,130 compared to $28,613,115, a decrease of $61,985. This decrease is a result of a $5.2 million decrease in procurement on our E-2D program, as we are shipping parts from stock and lowering inventory on this program. This was offset by a $3.4 million increase in procurement related to the production of T-38 kits and a $1.5 million increase in procurement on the Bell AH-1Z cowl program, as these are newer programs and are beginning to transition into full production. Procurement for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was $9,606,143 compared to $10,709,002 a decrease of $1,102,859 or 10.3%. The decrease in procurement for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was a result of the same programs as described above.

Labor costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 were $4,737,522 compared to $5,252,745, a decrease of $515,223 or 9.8%. Labor costs for the three months ended September 30, 2018 were $1,490,227 compared to $1,666,176, a decrease of $175,949 or 10.6%. The decrease is the result of more activity on kitting programs, such as T-38 and E-2D, as compared to assembly programs, which require more direct labor.

Factory overhead for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $11,729,044 compared to $11,554,680, a increase of $174,364 or 1.5%. Factory overhead for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was $4,100,162 compared to $3,766,974, an increase of $333,188 or 8.8%. The increase in factory overhead is predominately the result of the timing of expenses incurred for factory supplies and employee benefits as the year to date total for factory overhead has remained consistent.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $13,433,164 compared to $13,133,698 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $299,466 or 2.3%, predominately the result of higher volume.

Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was $4,798,478 compared to $4,912,436 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, a decrease of $113,958 or 2.3%, predominately the result of lower volume.

Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Favorable/Unfavorable Adjustments to Gross Profit (Loss)

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, circumstances required that we make changes in estimates to various contracts. Such changes in estimates resulted in decreases in total gross profit as follows:

|  | Nine Months Ended
|  | September 30, 2018 |  | September 30, 2017
Favorable adjustments |  | $ | 249,000 |  |  | $ | 381,000 |
Unfavorable adjustments |  |  | (932,000 | ) |  |  | (2,065,000 | )
Net adjustments |  | $ | (683,000 | ) |  | $ | (1,684,000 | )

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018 we had one contract which had approximately a $240,000 unfavorable adjustment caused by changing estimates on a long-term program, that we are working with the customer to agree to contract extensions and are adjusting our long-term margin estimates. Also, we had one contract that had a $193,000 unfavorable adjustment caused by excess overhead and material costs incurred. In addition, we had one contract that had a $188,000 unfavorable adjustment caused by excess overhead and material costs incurred. There were no other material changes favorable or unfavorable during the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we had three contracts which had approximately $910,000, $506,000 and $436,000 of unfavorable adjustments caused by changing estimates on a long-term program; we are working with the customer to agree to contract extensions and expect to have to decrease our selling price. Additionally, we had one contract that had a gap in production, as well as a smaller than expected order quantity. The gap in production and low quantity has resulted in an unfavorable adjustment of approximately $508,000. There were no other material changes favorable or unfavorable during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2018 were $2,584,560 compared to $2,044,304 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $540,256, or 26.4%. This change was predominately the result of an increase of approximately $315,000 in professional fees, predominately related to legal fees for the WMI litigation, an increase of $141,000 in salaries, and an increase of $81,000 in computer expenses.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 were $7,192,159 compared to $6,210,380 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $981,779 or 15.8%. This change was predominately the result of an increase of approximately $540,000 in professional fees, an increase of $220,000 in salaries, an increase of $111,000 in employee benefits and an increase of $121,000 in computer expenses. The increase in professional fees is the result of work performed on due diligence, contract work and litigation related to the potential acquisition of WMI. Additionally, legal services were provided for the Company’s amended bank agreement. The increase in salaries was the result of hiring additional business development personnel to increase new business wins. The increase in accrued bonus is the result of additional executives included in the bonus pool. The increase in employee benefits is a result of increased costs related to increased healthcare rates.

Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Income Before Provision for Income Taxes

Income before provision for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was $1,639,153 compared to $2,465,513 for the same period last year, a decrease of $826,360 or 33.5%, predominately the result of higher selling, general and administrative expenses. Income before provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $4,802,143 compared to $5,664,461 for the same period last year, a decrease of $862,318 or 15.2%, predominately the result of higher selling, general and administrative expenses.

Provision for Income Taxes

Provision for income taxes was $311,000 and $960,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, compared to provision for income taxes of $770,000 and $1,954,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 respectively. The effective tax rate at September 30, 2018 and 2017 was 20% and 35%, respectively.

In accordance with the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act that was enacted on December 22, 2017 (“U.S. Tax Reform”), corporate tax rates were reduced from the historical rates and thus the effective tax rate has changed significantly during the quarter ended September 30, 2018. The provision for income taxes for the interim quarters of 2017 were calculated under the old tax laws and as such are not comparable to the 2018 effective rates. The impact of the U.S. Tax Reform is primarily from revaluing our U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the rates at which they are expected to reverse in the future. Additionally, we have an AMT tax credit which will lower our effective rate below the federal statutory rate. For U.S. federal purposes the corporate statutory income tax rate was reduced from 35% to 21%, effective for our 2018 tax year. The provisional impact of the U.S. Tax Reform is our current best estimate based on the preliminary review of the new law and is subject to revision based on our existing accounting for income taxes policy as further information is gathered and interpretation and analysis of the tax legislation evolves. The Securities and Exchange Commission has issued rules allowing for a measurement period of up to one year after the enactment date of the U.S. Tax Reform to finalize the recording of the related tax impacts. Any future changes to our provisional estimated impact of the U.S. Tax Reform will be included as an adjustment to the provision for income taxes in the tax provision for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Net Income

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was $1,328,153 or $0.15 per basic share, compared to $1,695,513 or $0.19 per basic share, for the same period last year. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $3,842,143 or $0.43 per basic share, compared to $3,710,461 or $0.42 per basic share, for the same period last year. Diluted income per share was $0.15 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 calculated utilizing 8,977,075 weighted average shares outstanding. Diluted income per share was $0.43 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 calculated utilizing 8,951,640 weighted average shares outstanding. Diluted income per share was $0.19 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 calculated utilizing 8,872,810 weighted average shares outstanding. Diluted income per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was $0.42, calculated utilizing 8,841,397 average shares outstanding as adjusted for the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options and RSUs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

At September 30, 2018, we had working capital of $81,485,900 compared to $78,137,801 at December 31, 2017, an increase of $3,348,099 or 4.3%.

Cash Flow

A large portion of our cash flow is used to pay for materials and processing costs associated with contracts that are in process and which do not provide for progress payments. Costs for which we are not able to bill on a progress basis are components of “Contract Assets” on our condensed balance sheets and represent the aggregate costs and related earnings for uncompleted contracts for which the customer has not yet been billed. These costs and earnings are recovered upon shipment of products and presentation of billings in accordance with contract terms.

| 24 |

Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Because our revenue recognition policy requires us to use estimates in determining revenue, costs and profits and in assigning the amounts to accounting periods, there can be a significant disparity between earnings (both for accounting and tax purposes) as reported and actual cash that we receive during any reporting period. Accordingly, it is possible that we may have a shortfall in our cash flow and may need to borrow money, or to raise additional capital, until the reported earnings materialize into actual cash receipts.

At September 30, 2018, we had a cash balance of $828,594 compared to $1,430,877 at December 31, 2017.

Our contract assets increased by approximately $2.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Several of our programs require us to expend up-front costs that may have to be amortized over a portion of production units. In the case of significant program delays and/or program cancellations, we could be required to bear impairment charges which may be material, for costs that are not recoverable. Such charges and the loss of up-front costs could have a material impact on our liquidity.

We continue to work to obtain better payment terms with our customers, including accelerated progress payment arrangements, as well as exploring alternative funding sources.

We believe that our existing resources, together with the availability under our credit facility, will be sufficient to meet our current working capital needs for at least 12 months from the date of this filing.

Credit Facilities

Credit Agreement and Term Loan

On March 24, 2016, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement with BankUnited, N.A. as the sole arranger, administrative agent and collateral agent and Citizens Bank, N.A. (the “BankUnited Facility”). The BankUnited Facility provides for a revolving credit loan commitment of $30 million (the “Revolving Loan”) and a $10 million term loan (“Term Loan”). The Revolving Loan bears interest at a rate based upon a pricing grid, as defined in the agreement.

On August 15, 2018, the Company entered into a Third Amendment and Waiver to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) with the Lenders named therein and BankUnited, N.A., as Sole Arranger, Agent, and Collateral Agent, dated as of March 24, 2016, as amended by the First Amendment and Waiver to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of May 9, 2016, as further amended by the Second Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of July 13, 2017 (collectively, the “Credit Agreement”).

Under the Amendment, the parties amended the Credit Agreement by, among other things, (i) extending the maturity date of the Company’s existing $30 million Revolving Loan and its existing $10 million Term Loan to June 30, 2020, (ii) amending the leverage ratio covenant, (iii) amending the interest rates corresponding to the leverage ratio, (iv) waiving non-compliance with the leverage ratio covenant for the trailing four fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2018 and June 30, 2018, and (v) amending provisions relating to the consummation of a public offering of common stock so that if an offering results in gross proceeds of $7 million or more, (A) the Company will prepay the loans in an amount equal to 25% of net proceeds of the offering (with $1.2 million applied to the Term Loan and the remainder applied to the Revolving Loan) and (B) the Company will maintain a minimum of $3 million in either unrestricted cash in an account with BankUnited, N.A., or in availability under the Revolving Loan.

As of September 30, 2018, the Company was not in compliance with the leverage ratio financial covenant contained in the BankUnited Facility, as amended. The Bank has waived the provisions of this covenant as of September 30, 2018.

As of September 30, 2018, the Company had $27.5 million outstanding under the Revolving Loan bearing interest at 5.75%.

The BankUnited Revolving Facility is secured by all of our assets.

Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The Term Loan had an initial amount of $10 million, payable in monthly installments, as defined in the agreement, which matures on June 30, 2020. The maturities of the Term Loan are included in the maturities of long-term debt.

In May 2016, the Company entered into an interest rate swap with the objective of reducing its exposure to cash flow volatility arising from interest rate fluctuations associated with certain debt. The notional amount, maturity date, and currency of this contract match those of the underlying debt. The Company has designated this interest rate swap contract as a cash flow hedge. During the month of June, the interest rate swap matured and the Company realized a net gain of approximately $7,000.

Contractual Obligations

Not applicable.

Item 4 – Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management has established disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information it is required to disclose in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. Such disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information the Company is required to disclose in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Based on an evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2018 made by management, under the supervision and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act) were effective as of September 30, 2018.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2018 that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II: Other Information

Item 1 – Legal Proceedings

Reference is made to the section titled “Legal Proceedings” in Note 11 to our unaudited condensed financial statements included in this quarterly report for a discussion of current legal proceedings, which discussion is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 1A – Risk Factors

The pendency of and uncertainty surrounding the proposed acquisition of Welding Metallurgy, Inc. could adversely affect our business.

On July 2, 2018, we received notice from Air Industries Group (“Air Industries”) that claimed to terminate the Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) between the Company and Air Industries, pursuant to which Air Industries agreed to sell to the Company all of the shares of capital stock of its subsidiary, Welding Metallurgy, Inc. (“WMI”).

On July 5, 2018, we filed a complaint in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York (“Court”), against Air Industries alleging, among other things, that Air Industries willfully breached its contractual obligation to provide financial information required to fulfill key conditions for closing under the Agreement. Air Industries’ answer and counterclaims, filed on July 30, 2018, denies the allegations made by us in the complaint and alleges that we breached the Agreement and the covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

On July 31, 2018, we filed a motion for preliminary injunction against Air Industries. The motion argued that the failure by Air Industries to provide financial data and other information necessary to close the transaction contemplated by the Agreement would cause irreparable injury to us. We sought an order directing Air Industries to furnish us with all previously requested financial, operating, and other data and information relating to WMI.

On October 2, 2018, we entered into a court-ordered stipulation (the “Stipulation and Order”) with Air Industries. As part of the Stipulation and Order, Air Industries has withdrawn its purported termination of the Agreement. Among other things, the Stipulation and Order requires Air Industries to deliver to us within 45 days audited, unqualified financial statements of WMI for 2017 certified by Air Industries’ auditor. Subject to fulfillment of other conditions to closing set forth in the Agreement, the parties agreed that the acquisition will close within three weeks after we receive the audited financial statements. We also agreed to promptly amend the Agreement to reflect the terms of the Stipulation and Order. The Court will retain jurisdiction of the case for all purposes, including enforcing the terms of the Stipulation and Order.

On November 9, 2018, the Court ordered an amendment to the Agreement (the “Amendment”). The Amendment provides that Rotenberg Meril Solomon Bertiger Gutilla, P.C. (“RM”) will replace CohnReznick LLP as auditors of WMI’s financial statements, consisting of the balance sheet as at December 31, 2017 and the related statements of income, retained earnings, stockholder’s equity, and cash flows for the year then ended. The Amendment provides that RM’s auditor’s report shall be delivered on or before November 16, 2018, and shall be unqualified in all respects, except that a “going concern” opinion will be considered unqualified. The Company and Air Industries agreed to share equally all fees and expenses charged by RM and all fees and expenses previously charged by CohnReznick. The foregoing summary of the Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, a copy of which is filed with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

We remain committed to completing the acquisition of WMI as soon as practicable, and believe that the Stipulation and Order and the Amendment will allow us to do so. However, if the WMI acquisition is not consummated as originally proposed, we may not realize any potential benefits of the acquisition. Additionally, our inability to consummate the WMI acquisition could create uncertainty with respect to our business, delay us from pursuing other strategic opportunities, or otherwise adversely affect our business, financial results, and operations. It is uncertain whether the acquisition will be consummated.

We have diverted, and will continue to divert, management resources towards the proposed acquisition. Also, we have incurred and will continue to incur significant transaction costs with respect to the proposed acquisition, including legal and other costs. The litigation is ongoing and the Court has retained jurisdiction of this matter. In the event that we and Air Industries are not able to close the transaction expeditiously, we may incur substantial additional legal fees. Litigation of this nature may be lengthy and may not lead to a successful result. Even though we have obtained favorable rulings thus far, they may not be predictive of the ultimate resolution of the matter. The incurrence of legal and other costs could adversely affect our business, financial results, and operations. Finally, any binding or non-binding decision of the Court that delays or eliminates our ability to consummate the WMI acquisition could create uncertainty with respect to our business, delay or prevent us from pursuing other strategic opportunities or otherwise adversely affect our business, financial results, and operations.
