NOTE 1 - Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Saker Aviation Services, Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by GAAP for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related footnotes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

 

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2022 and the condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all necessary adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) have been included to make the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2022 and its results of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 not misleading. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any full year or any other interim period.

 

The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the global and United States economies. Federal, state, and local governments implemented certain travel restrictions, “stay-at-home” orders, and social distancing initiatives which negatively impacted our operations and those of our customers. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, on March 17, 2020 all sightseeing tour operations at the Downtown Manhattan Heliport ceased. On July 20, 2020, New York City started Phase 4 of the city’s reopening. Sightseeing tour operators at the heliport restarted operations under this phase.

 

For the period July 20, 2020 through March 31, 2022, sightseeing tour operators experienced much lower demand for tours as compared to pre-pandemic levels of activity. Beginning in April 2022, sightseeing tour operators have seen an increase in activity and a much higher demand for tours. There can be no assurance that this increased activity will continue as demand for sightseeing tours will depend on future developments in the COVID-19 pandemic, including the duration and spread and related travel advisories and restrictions and the impact on overall demand for air travel. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a less substantial impact on our operations at our Kansas FBO and MRO.
