· | The Company's business plans and strategies, including its continued focus on acquiring used regional aircraft, any potential for acquiring and managing new types and models of regional aircraft, and its expectation that most of its future growth will be outside of North America; |
· | Matters related to the Company's proposed merger with JetFleet Holding Corp. ("JHC"), including: the Company's ability to obtain the approval of its stockholders to issue shares of its common stock as partial merger consideration; the ability to complete, and the timing of, the closing of the merger; and the anticipated impact of the merger (if completed) on the Company and its performance, including the amount and nature of merger expenses payable by the Company, certain losses and other accounting effects of the merger, any changes to the Company's risk profile after the Company internalizes the management services presently performed for the Company by JetFleet Management Corp.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
CEO and CFO Certifications. Attached as exhibits to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Report”) are certifications of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (the “CEO”) and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer(the “CFO”), which are required pursuant to Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Section 302 Certifications”). This section of the Report includes information concerning the evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures referred to in the Section 302 Certifications and this should be read in conjunction with the Section 302 Certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.
Evaluation of the Company’s Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Disclosure controls and procedures (“Disclosure Controls”) are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, such as this Report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
In the course of the review of the consolidated financial results of the Company for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2018, we identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting at June 30, 2018 related to the Company’s incorrect accounting for management fees and acquisition fees associated with the management agreement between JetFleet Holding Corp (“JHC”) and the Company.
Management has determined that this deficiency constitutes a material weakness as of June 30, 2018. Management is in the process of conducting the controls related to the acquisition accounting over the JHC Merger as the transaction has not been consummated and therefore the control has not been finalized. Management believes that it will operate effectively once the Merger is finalized and the material weakness relating to the recognition of expenses subject to the Waiver Agreement is included in management’s internal controls over the final acquisition accounting in future periods.
The Company’s management, with the participation of the CEO and CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s Disclosure Controls and concluded that the Company’s Disclosure Controls were not effective as of June 30, 2018 due to the material weakness described above.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Except for the material weakness note above, no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2018 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations of Disclosure Controls and Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. In designing its Disclosure Controls and internal control over financial reporting, the Company’s management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well-designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of the Company’s controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs. Because of these inherent limitations, the Company’s Disclosure Controls and internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all instances of fraud, misstatements or other control issues. In addition, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of disclosure or internal controls to future periods are subject to risks, including, among others, that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate.
