Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company

 

We are not subject to the ongoing reporting requirements of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) because we are not registering our securities under the Exchange Act. Rather, we will be subject to the more limited reporting requirements under Regulation A, including the obligation to electronically file:

 

  annual reports (including disclosure relating to our business operations for the preceding three fiscal years, or, if in existence for less than three years, since inception, related party transactions, beneficial ownership of the issuer’s securities, executive officers and directors and certain executive compensation information, management’s discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) of the issuer’s liquidity, capital resources, and results of operations, and two years of audited financial statements),

 

  semiannual reports (including disclosure primarily relating to the issuer’s interim financial statements and MD&A) and

 

  current reports for certain material events.

 

In addition, at any time after completing reporting for the fiscal year in which our offering statement was qualified, if the securities of each class to which this offering statement relates are held of record by fewer than 300 persons and offers or sales are not ongoing, we may immediately suspend our ongoing reporting obligations under Regulation A.

If and when we become subject to the ongoing reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, as an issuer with less than $1.07 billion in total annual gross revenues during our last fiscal year, we will qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) and this status will be significant. An emerging growth company may take advantage of certain reduced reporting requirements and is relieved of certain other significant requirements that are otherwise generally applicable to public companies. In particular, as an emerging growth company we:

 

  will not be required to obtain an auditor attestation on our internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002;

 

  will not be required to provide a detailed narrative disclosure discussing our compensation principles, objectives and elements and analyzing how those elements fit with our principles and objectives (commonly referred to as “compensation discussion and analysis”);

 

  will not be required to obtain a non-binding advisory vote from our stockholders on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements (commonly referred to as the “say-on-pay,” “say-on-frequency” and “say-on-golden-parachute” votes);

 

  will be exempt from certain executive compensation disclosure provisions requiring a pay-for-performance graph and CEO pay ratio disclosure;

 

  may present only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, or MD&A; and

 

  will be eligible to claim longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards.

 

We intend to take advantage of all of these reduced reporting requirements and exemptions, including the longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards under Section 107 of the JOBS Act. Our election to use the phase-in periods may make it difficult to compare our financial statements to those of non-emerging growth companies and other emerging growth companies that have opted out of the phase-in periods under Section 107 of the JOBS Act.

 

Under the JOBS Act, we may take advantage of the above-described reduced reporting requirements and exemptions for up to five years after our initial sale of common equity pursuant to a registration statement declared effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or such earlier time that we no longer meet the definition of an emerging growth company. Note that this offering, while a public offering, is not a sale of common equity pursuant to a registration statement, since the offering is conducted pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements. In this regard, the JOBS Act provides that we would cease to be an “emerging growth company” if we have more than $1.07 billion in annual revenues, have more than $700 million in market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates, or issue more than $1 billion in principal amount of non-convertible debt over a three-year period.

 

Certain of these reduced reporting requirements and exemptions are also available to us due to the fact that we may also qualify, once listed, as a “smaller reporting company” under the Commission’s rules. For instance, smaller reporting companies are not required to obtain an auditor attestation on their assessment of internal control over financial reporting; are not required to provide a compensation discussion and analysis; are not required to provide a pay-for-performance graph or CEO pay ratio disclosure; and may present only two years of audited financial statements and related MD&A disclosure.

SUMMARY

 

Our Company

 

Our business strategy combines concepts from fractional jet membership programs with lessons learned from building blockchains and their communities. We believe the tokenization of flight hours and fractional membership programs offers the possibility of reduced transaction costs and, through the evolution of a marketplace, higher industry fleet utilization. Our purposeful enhancement of price discovery and reduced entry price have the potential to produce fairer and more inclusive results for aircraft owners and travelers alike.

 

We formed our company on June 4, 2018 and are currently operating as a charter broker. We developed and, in September 2019, launched our booking platform represented by our iOS app JetToken (the “App”). The current version of our App currently functions as a prospecting and quoting platform to arrange private jet travel with third party carriers. Users of our App can research and chose a flight and then contact us via the App to request a firm quote. We then confirm and process payment for the user manually. We launched version 2.0 of our App in February 2021. Version 2.0 enables users to make payment directly through our App. Our App is directly connected via API to Avinode, the major centralized database in private aviation. Through Avinode we electronically and automatically correspond with operators of private jets who have posted their aircraft for hire. We currently accept both cash and blockchain currency, which our payment processor promptly converts to fiat currency prior to confirming a booking.

 

We have also entered into a Purchase Agreement with Honda Aircraft Company for the acquisition of the first aircraft in a multi-aircraft deal for the HondaJet HA-420 aircraft (the “HondaJet Elites”). Per the agreement, we expect to take delivery of one jet per quarter in each of the four quarters of 2021, starting in the first quarter of 2021. We intend to finance the purchase of these HondaJet Elites through a capital lease facility that we are in the final stages of negotiating. Delivery of our first aircraft would only occur following our finalization of financing arrangements. We have also entered into an Executive Aircraft Management and Charter Services Agreement with Great Western Air, LLC (DBA Cirrus Aviation Services, LLC) (“Cirrus”) pursuant to which Cirrus has agreed to provide for the management, operation, and maintenance of our HondaJet Elites. Cirrus Aviation Services has sent three pilots to train on the HondaJet Elite at the Flight Safety facility on the Honda Aircraft Company campus in Greensboro, NC. A representative of our company was present to observe the first few days of training. As of January 21, 2021, all three pilots have successfully completed training, consistent with the anticipated delivery of our aircraft.

 

We expect to further develop our App to facilitate our own fleet utilization on our leased HondaJet Elites by enabling clients who have purchased a package of flight hours to view their balances and apply amounts in their accounts to book time on either our HondaJet Elites or third party charters. Ultimately, we expect to expand our App functionality, with specific focus on the integration of a closed Ethereum based blockchain network (the “Network”), enabling clients to access the Jet Tokens in their digital wallets maintained on our Network until clients redeem their Jet Tokens for travel.

 

In addition to servicing members and third-party charter clients, our HondaJet Elites would be available to address unexpected cancellations or delays on brokered charters. Unlike most of our brokerage competitors, as well as many business jet management companies which require owner approval before their aircraft can be used for third party charter, we believe maintaining a fleet of readily available aircraft to back fill third party charter services provides more reliability and will be an attractive selling point for potential clients. Cirrus may also be able to provide substitute aircraft at competitive rates in periods of excess demand for our HondaJet Elites.

 

We ultimately intend to issue and sell Jet Tokens on our closed blockchain Network that would be redeemable for time on our HondaJet Elites as well as for private jet travel and ancillary services with third party carriers. We are currently developing and testing our Jet Tokens and formalizing the rules of their use on our platform. Digital assets such as our proposed Jet Token, depending on their structure and rules of use, may be considered a security and the issuance and sale may be subject to registration under the Securities Act. We plan to structure our Jet Token to be in compliance with applicable law, including the federal securities laws. Specifically, we intend to structure Jet Tokens in such a way that they are not treated as securities.

We envision a time in which a client purchases from us a jet hour card using cash or blockchain currency and in return receives Jet Tokens redeemable for travel, or maintains funds in a wallet on our platform for purchase of travel, on our fleet, with third party jet operators or on commercial airlines. Through our App the client would seamlessly access their Jet Token balance in their Wallet on the Network; Jet Tokens would be one payment option on the App alongside fiat currency, bitcoin and other blockchain currencies. We also envision a time when our App offers an integrated marketplace for private jet and commercial jet travel (arrivals, departures, aircraft description, aircraft photos, taxes, prices) that has the potential to offer improved access to services for aircraft operators and travelers. We believe aircraft operators would achieve higher revenue per seat mile by filling an otherwise empty plane, and travelers would achieve access to on-demand travel at a lower average cost because of greater market transparency and improved price discovery.

 

We believe our strategy of combining, in a searchable instant booking platform, availability of private jet carriers, commercial airline flights and private jet owners underutilized flight time increases the efficiency and optimizes the cost to our clients of getting from point A to point B on their own terms.

Selected Risks Associated with Our Business

 

Our business is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including those highlighted in the section titled “Risk Factors” immediately following this summary. These risks include, but are not limited to, the following:

 

We have a limited operating history; we have not launched our Jet Token platform in its fully automated form and we may not be able to do so.
  
Demand for our product and services may decline due to factors beyond our control.

 

Our business model depends on linking our Jet Token to the Ethereum blockchain and any problems experienced by Ethereum could damage our business and reputation.

 

New or different regulations governing digital assets, like our Jet Token, may have a material impact on our ability to operate our business.

 

If we are unable to structure our Jet Tokens to be in compliance with applicable law, including the federal securities laws, we may not be able to proceed with our business as planned.

 

Fluctuations in the price of blockchain currencies and digital assets generally could materially and adversely affect our business.

 

Our business and reputation rely on, and will continue to rely on, third parties and any failure on their part may damage our reputation and business.

 

We face a high level of competition with numerous market participants having greater financial resources and operating experience than us.

 

Our failure to attract and retain highly qualified personnel in the future could harm our business.

 

We may not have enough funds to sustain the business until it becomes profitable and we may need to raise additional capital through equity and/or debt offerings to support our working capital requirements and operating losses if that becomes necessary.

 

Investors will be minority holders of Non-voting Common Stock with limited ability to influence our policies or any significant corporate matter

 

We have issued Preferred Stock that has greater rights and preferences than shares of Common Stock.

 

This offering involves "rolling closings." Because we are an early stage company our business is changing rapidly, which may mean that earlier investors may not have the benefit of information that later investors have.

RISK FACTORS

 

The Commission requires the company to identify risks that are specific to its business and its financial condition. The company is still subject to all the same risks that all companies in its business, and all companies in the economy, are exposed to. These include risks relating to economic downturns, political and economic events and technological developments (such as hacking and the ability to prevent hacking). Additionally, early-stage companies are inherently riskier than more developed companies. You should consider general risks as well as specific risks when deciding whether to invest.

 

Risks Related to our Operating Environment

 

Demand for our product and services may decline due to factors beyond our control. Demand for private jet charters may be negatively impacted by factors affecting air travel generally, such as adverse weather conditions, an outbreak of a contagious disease and other natural events, terrorism and increased security screening requirements.

 

In particular, the recent coronavirus pandemic and resulting recommended travel restrictions have resulting in a sharp decline in transportation generally, including demand for private aviation globally. There is significant uncertainty regarding when these restrictions will ease and whether, thereafter, travel in general will resume at normal levels. While we believe that commercial airline travel poses an increased risk of the spread of virus and bacteria generally compared to private aviation travel and that private airline travel may resume to a greater degree and sooner than commercial travel, we cannot assure you of this given the uncertainty in the travel industry overall. If travel remains in a general decline for a significant period of time, we may be unable to compete with more established operators and may not be able to achieve profitability in the medium term or at all.

 

More broadly, business jet travel is highly correlated to the performance of the economy and an economic downturn, such as the current economic environment resulting from the coronavirus related shutdowns of most businesses, is likely to have a direct impact on the use of business jets, which may be intensified when combined with a sensitive political environment. For example, beginning in 2008 and in connection with weakened macroeconomic conditions, the corporate and executive jet aviation industry, and companies that utilize corporate jets, experienced intensified political and media scrutiny. It is likely that the current economic downturn will impact demand for private jet travel for some time even following the easing of stay-at-home protocols and business re-openings.

 

Any of these factors that cause the demand for private jet travel may result in delays that could reduce the attractiveness of private air charter travel versus other means of transportation, particularly for shorter distance travel, which represents our target market. Delays also frustrate passengers, affecting our reputation and potentially reducing fleet utilization and charter bookings as a result of flight cancellations and increase costs. We may experience decreased demand, as well as a loss of reputation, in the event of an accident involving one of our aircraft or an aircraft booked through our platform or any actual or alleged misuse of our platform or aircraft by customers in violation of law. Demand for our product and services may also decline due to actions that increase the cost of private air charter travel versus other forms of transportation, particularly efforts aimed at addressing climate change such as carbon tax initiatives or other actions. Any of the foregoing circumstances or events which reduced the demand for private jet charters could negatively impact our ability to establish our business and achieve profitability.

 

We face a high level of competition with numerous market participants having greater financial resources and operating experience than us. The private air travel industry is extraordinarily competitive. We plan to compete against private jet charter and fractional jet companies as well as business jet charter companies. All compete for passengers with a variety of pricing plans, aircraft types, blackout periods, booking terms and other products and services. Both the private jet charter companies and the business jet charter companies have numerous competitive advantages that enable them to attract customers. Our access to a smaller aircraft fleet and regional focus puts us at a competitive disadvantage, particularly with respect to our appeal to business travelers who want to travel overseas.

 

The fractional private jet companies and many of the business jet charter companies have access to larger fleets of aircraft and have greater financial resources, which would permit them to more effectively service customers. Due to our relatively small size, we are more susceptible to their competitive activities, which could prevent us from attaining the level of sales required to sustain profitable operations.

Recently consolidation in the industry, such as VistaJet’s acquisitions of XOJET and JetSmarter and Wheels Up’s acquisition of Delta Private Jets as well as Gama Aviation, a business jet services company, and increased consolidation in the future could further intensify the competitive environment we face. These competitive factors may make it difficult for us to establish and sustain a profitable business.

 

The demand for our services is subject to seasonal fluctuations. Demand for our services will fluctuate over the course of the year and is higher in the summer season and during holiday periods. During periods of higher demand, our ability to provide agreed upon levels of service to our customers may deteriorate, which could have a negative impact on our reputation and our ability to succeed.

 

Our ability to sell our product or service may be adversely affected by changes in government regulation. Our business is subject to significant regulation by the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration), the TSA (Transportation Security Administration) as well as “know your customer” obligations and other laws and regulations. The laws and regulations concerning the selling of our product or services may change and if they do then the selling of our product or service may no longer be possible or profitable.

 

We have not launched a version of our App that would integrate client Jet Token balances held in wallets on the Network and there is a risk that we may not be able to do so or, if we do, that we will be able to establish and grow our client base. We have not yet launched a version of our App that will integrate client Jet Token balances held in wallets on the Network. We cannot assure you that we will be able to do so. If and when we do, there are no guarantees that we will attract a sufficient client base who use our booking services to charter flights. If we fail to develop and launch these more enhanced versions of our App or fail to attract a sufficient client base, we may determine to discontinue our business and you could lose all of your investment.

 

Our failure to attract and retain highly qualified personnel in the future could harm our business. We believe that our future success will depend in large part on our ability to retain or attract highly qualified management, technical and other personnel. We may not be successful in retaining key personnel or in attracting other highly qualified personnel. If we are unable to retain or attract significant numbers of qualified management and other personnel, we may not be able to grow and expand our business.

 

Risks Related to our Business

 

We are an early stage company with a limited operating history. Our company was formed on June 4, 2018. Accordingly, we have a limited history upon which an investor can evaluate our performance and future prospects. The company has a short history, few customers, and effectively no revenue prior to June 30, 2020. Our current and proposed operations are subject to all business risks associated with new enterprises. These include likely fluctuations in operating results as we react to developments in our markets, difficulty in managing our growth and the entry of competitors into the market. We have incurred net losses to date and our financial statements do not reflect any operating revenues. We cannot assure you that we will be profitable in the foreseeable future or generate sufficient profits to pay dividends to the holders of the shares.

 

If we are not able to structure our Jet Token in accordance with applicable law, including federal securities laws, we may not be able to proceed with our business as planned. A significant element of our strategy is to issue and sell Jet Tokens redeemable for time on our HondaJet Elites as well as for private jet travel with third party carriers, which we expect to provide us with significant competitive advantages such as significantly reduced financial transaction costs and increased efficiencies in the delivery of air charter services. We plan to structure our Jet Token to be in compliance with applicable law, including the federal securities laws. This will require us, among other things, to structure our Jet Tokens so that they are not treated as securities for purposes of federal securities laws. If we are not able to structure our Jet Tokens as we intend, we may not be able to operate our business as planned. Specifically, we would lose the competitive advantages tokenization provides which may impair our profitability. In addition, to the extent that investors view our ability to create and sell our Jet Tokens as contributing to the value of our Company as a whole and, in particular, to the value of our Non-voting Common Stock, our failure to structure Jet Tokens in compliance with applicable laws may cause the value of the Non-voting Common Stock to decline.

Our business strategy includes creating and linking our Jet Token to the Ethereum blockchain and any problems experienced by Ethereum could damage our business and reputation. Although we intend to create and issue Jet Tokens on our Network compatible with the Ethereum blockchain, and later intend to establish one or more smart contracts on the Ethereum blockchain and act as gatekeeper for our clients and their ownership and use of our Jet Tokens, ultimately our ability to do so is dependent on the sound functioning of the Ethereum blockchain. Blockchain technology is still relatively new and there are a number of different networks that have been and likely will be established. It is uncertain which will have longevity and which may become obsolete. In addition, blockchains by design maintain each transaction in a secure “block” or ledger, which is chained together, with cryptography, to all prior transaction “blocks” involving the same digital assets. This requires a significant and ever-expanding amount of data storage and it is uncertain at this time whether there is a limit to any blockchain’s ability to maintain the integrity of this data in the long term. Blockchain technology is also founded on the principal of immutable transaction records, which, while providing strong data integrity and security, may also make it difficult for us to make adjustments in response to client concerns or problems and cause damage to our reputations and the loss of clients. In addition, there have been a number of hacking attacks targeting blockchains, in particular the “51% attack” against Ethereum Classic, i.e. a type of hack in which a person or persons gains control of a majority of the network's mining power and can defraud other users by sending them payments and then creating an alternative version of the blockchain in which the payments never happened. These events indicate that, despite the design of blockchains to create immutable transaction records, blockchains are susceptible to hacking attacks. Any disruption in, or problem with the Ethereum blockchain, hacking activity that distorts our smart contract or transaction data, or the inflexibility to address our client needs, could cause significant disruption in our operations and harm our business.

 

Changes in the regulatory environment governing digital assets could make it difficult or impracticable to create and sell our Jet Token which may have a material impact on our revenues or the value of the shares of Non-voting Common Stock. The regulatory environment governing digital assets, like our Jet Token is relatively new and changing rapidly. In addition to the federal securities laws discussed above, digital assets may also be subject to commodities laws, trade sanctions, and banking laws, among others. Changes to the regulatory environment affecting our business could materially impair our ability to create and sell Jet Tokens. If we are unable to create and sell our Jet Tokens, our platform may lose what potential clients view as a competitive advantage and cause our revenues to decline. In addition, to the extent that Investors view our ability to create and sell our Jet Tokens as contributing to the value of our Company as a whole and, in particular, to the value of our Non-voting Common Stock, our failure to do so may cause the value of the Non-voting Common Stock to decline.

 

If we cannot finance our aircraft purchases, we may not succeed. As is customary in the aviation industry, we are reliant on external financing for the acquisition of our aircraft and are likely to need additional financing in the future in order to grow our fleet. If we do not have access to such external financing, for whatever reason, including reasons relating to our business or prospects or the broader economy, we may not be in a position to grow and/or survive. If we manage to raise only a minimum amount of financing, we will have to find other sources of funding for future aircraft acquisitions.

 

We may not have enough capital as needed and may be required to raise more capital and the terms of subsequent financings may adversely impact your investment. We anticipate needing access to credit in order to support our working capital requirements as we grow. Although interest rates are low, it is still a difficult environment for obtaining credit on favorable terms. If we cannot obtain credit when we need it, we may issue debt or equity securities to raise funds, modify our growth plans, or take some other action. Interest on debt securities could increase costs and negatively impact operating results and convertible debt securities could result in diluting your interest in the company. Issuance of preferred stock, in addition to diluting your interests in the company, may be done on terms more advantageous to those investors than to the holders of shares of Non-voting Common Stock. If we are unable to find additional capital on favorable terms, then it is possible that we will choose to cease our sales activity. In that case, the only asset remaining to generate a return on your investment could be our intellectual property. Even if we are not forced to cease our sales activity, the unavailability of capital could result in our performing below expectations, which could adversely impact the value of your investment.

We are dependent on our information systems which may be vulnerable to cyber-attacks or other events. Our operations are dependent on our information systems and the information collected, processed, stored, and handled by these systems. We rely heavily on our computer systems to manage our client account balances, booking, pricing, processing and other processes. We receive, retain and transmit certain confidential information, including personally identifiable information that our clients provide to us. In addition, for these operations, we depend in part on the secure transmission of confidential information over public networks to charter operators. Our information systems are subject to damage or interruption from power outages, facility damage, computer and telecommunications failures, computer viruses, security breaches, including credit card or personally identifiable information breaches, coordinated cyber-attacks, vandalism, catastrophic events and human error. More specifically, our clients will maintain wallets on our platform representing the value of their investment in Jet Tokens and, if issued, the ownership of those Jet Tokens. If our platform is hacked, these funds could be at risk of being stolen which would damage our reputation and likely our business. Any significant disruption or cyber-attacks on our information systems, particularly those involving confidential information being accessed, obtained, damaged, or used by unauthorized or improper persons, could harm our reputation and expose us to regulatory or legal actions and impair our ability to operate our business and our financial results.

 

The prices of blockchain currencies that we accept as payment are extremely volatile. Fluctuations in the price of blockchain currencies and digital assets generally could materially and adversely affect our business. We accept blockchain currencies, like Bitcoin, as payment and the market value of these blockchain currencies is highly volatile. Though we promptly exchange blockchain currencies for fiat currencies to limit direct exposure to this volatility, we believe our services have a competitive advantage due to our acceptance of blockchain currencies as payment vis-a-vis our competitors. To the extent that this high level of volatility decreases the general use of blockchain currencies, we may lose this competitive advantage and our results may suffer. Furthermore, a decrease in the price of a single blockchain asset may cause volatility in the entire blockchain asset industry and may affect other blockchain assets including our Jet Tokens. For example, a security breach that affects investor or user confidence in Bitcoin, or Ethereum may also cause the demand for our Jet Tokens, if issued, to diminish in value.

 

Our business and reputation rely on, and will continue to rely on, third parties. We have relied on a third-party app developer to develop our initial platform design and although we have recently opened an office in Tel Aviv Israel in furtherance of internalizing our app development, we may continue to rely on third parties for future development of our App. We also expect to rely heavily on Cirrus to maintain and operate our leased aircraft for charter services and we will rely on third party operators when our clients book flights through our platform with those operators. The failure of these third parties to perform these roles properly may result in damage to our reputation, loss of clients, potential litigation and other costs. We may also experience delays, defects, errors, or other problems with their work that could have an adverse effect on our results and our ability to achieve profitability.

 

We may be unable to adequately protect our intellectual property interests or may be found infringing on intellectual property interests of others. We use a combination of trademarks, domain names and other measures to protect our intellectual property. We believe that our trademarks and domain names play an important role in protecting our brand name and marketing of our services. We have registered our trademarks and domain names that we currently use in the United States. We may be subject to claims by other parties asserting interests in such trademarks and domain names or infringement of their intellectual property rights. In addition, our business is subject to the risk of third parties infringing our trademarks. We may not always be successful in securing protection for, or stopping infringements of, our trademarks and we may need to resort to litigation in the future to enforce our rights in this regard. Any such litigation could result in significant costs and a diversion of resources. We may not have the funds to adequately protect our intellectual property rights, which may undermine the credibility of our intellectual property, reducing our ability to enter into sub-licenses and weakening our attempts to prevent competitors from entering the market.

 

We may not have enough funds to sustain the business until it becomes profitable. Even if we raise funds through this offering, we may not accurately anticipate how quickly we may use the funds and whether these funds are sufficient to bring the business to profitability.

Risks Related to the Securities and the Offering

 

Any valuation at this stage is difficult to assess. The valuation for the offering was established by the company. Unlike listed companies that are valued publicly through market-driven stock prices, the valuation of private companies, especially startups, is difficult to assess and you may risk overpaying for your investment.

 

Shares of Non-voting Common Stock only convert into voting Common Stock in limited circumstances, which may not occur, and investors should be prepared to hold shares of Non-voting Common Stock indefinitely. Shares of Non-voting Common Stock convert automatically and solely upon the closing of an initial public offering of voting Common Stock or the merger of the company into another entity. We cannot assure you that either of these events will occur and as a result, investors should expect to hold shares of Non-voting Common Stock indefinitely.

 

Investors will be minority holders of Non-voting Common Stock and we have issued Preferred Stock that has greater rights and preferences than shares of Common Stock. The shares of Non-voting Common Stock are non-voting and voting control is in the hands of a few large stockholders. Therefore, investors in this offering will have a limited ability to influence our policies or any other corporate matter, including the election of directors, changes to our company’s governance documents, expanding the employee option pool, and any merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of our assets, or other major action requiring stockholder approval. Holders of Series Seed Preferred Stock, in addition to having voting rights on an as converted basis with our voting Common Stock, have veto rights over some corporate actions that holders of Non-voting Common Stock do not have. Furthermore, in the event of a liquidation of our company, you will only be paid out if there is any cash remaining after all of the creditors of our company have been paid and after payment to the holders of our Series Seed Preferred Stock and our Series CF Preferred Stock.

 

This offering involves "rolling closings," which may mean that earlier investors may not have the benefit of information that later investors have. We may request that StartEngine Primary instruct the escrow agent to disburse offering funds to us at any time. At that point, investors whose subscription agreements have been accepted will become our stockholders. In light of our early stage of development, our business is likely to change significantly during the offering period. We will file supplements to our Offering Circular reflecting material changes and investors whose subscriptions have not yet been accepted will have the benefit of that additional information. These investors may withdraw their subscriptions and get their money back. Investors whose subscriptions have already been accepted, however, will already be our stockholders and will have no such right.

 

Using a credit card to purchase shares may impact the return on your investment as well as subject you to other risks inherent in this form of payment. Investors in this offering have the option of paying for their investment with a credit card, which is not usual in the traditional investment markets. Transaction fees charged by your credit card company (which can reach 5% of transaction value if considered a cash advance) and interest charged on unpaid card balances (which can reach almost 25% in some states) add to the effective purchase price of the shares you buy. See “Plan of Distribution and Selling Securityholders.” The cost of using a credit card may also increase if you do not make the minimum monthly card payments and incur late fees. Using a credit card is a relatively new form of payment for securities and will subject you to other risks inherent in this form of payment, including that, if you fail to make credit card payments (e.g. minimum monthly payments), you risk damaging your credit score and payment by credit card may be more susceptible to abuse than other forms of payment. Moreover, where a third-party payment processor is used, as in this offering, your recovery options in the case of disputes may be limited. The increased costs due to transaction fees and interest may reduce the return on your investment.

 

The SEC’s Office of Investor Education and Advocacy issued an Investor Alert dated February 14, 2018 entitled: Credit Cards and Investments – A Risky Combination, which explains these and other risks you may want to consider before using a credit card to pay for your investment.

 

This investment is illiquid. There is no currently established market for reselling these securities. If you decide that you want to resell these securities in the future, you may not be able to find a buyer.

 

The value of your investment may be diluted if the company issues additional options. The company has options exercisable for 23.3 million shares of voting Common Stock outstanding under its 2018 Stock Plan and 1.7 million shares of voting Common Stock and 5 million shares of Non-voting Common Stock remaining for future grants. The company may increase the number of shares reserved for issuance under the plan. The issuance of additional option or stock grants under the plan or other stock-based incentive program may dilute the value of your holdings. The company views stock-based incentive compensation as an important competitive tool, particularly in attracting both managerial and technological talent.

Certain investors are entitled to pay a lower price for our Non-Voting Common Stock. We and the selling stockholder are offering shares of our Non-voting Common Stock at a per share price of $0.75. As described in “Plan of Distribution – Discounted Price for StartEngine OWNers,” certain individuals who are members of the StartEngine OWNers bonus program (“StartEngine OWNers”) will be entitled to receive Bonus Shares, effectively reducing the per share price they pay to $0.68 per share. The purchase of Non-voting Common Stock by StartEngine OWNers will have the effect of immediately diluting the  investment of other investors in this offering.

 

The subscription agreement has a forum selection provision that requires disputes be resolved in state or federal courts in the State of New York, regardless of convenience or cost to you, the investor.  In order to invest in this offering, investors agree to resolve disputes arising under the subscription agreement in state or federal courts located in the State of New York, other than those arising under federal securities laws. This forum selection provision may limit your ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us.   Alternatively, if a court were to find the provision inapplicable to, or unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such matters in other jurisdictions, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.

DILUTION

 

Dilution means a reduction in value, control or earnings of the shares the investor owns.

 

Immediate dilution

 

An early-stage company typically sells its shares (or grants options over its shares) to its founders and early employees at a very low cash cost, because they are, in effect, putting their “sweat equity” into the company. When the company seeks cash investments from outside investors, like you, the new investors typically pay a much larger sum for their shares than the founders or earlier investors, which means that the cash value of your stake is diluted because all the shares are worth the same amount, and you paid more than earlier investors for your shares.

 

The following table demonstrates the price that new investors are paying for their shares of Non-voting Common Stock with the effective cash price paid by existing stockholders. The table presents shares and pricing as issued and reflects all transactions since inception. The share numbers and amounts in this table assume conversion of all outstanding options into shares of Common Stock at their exercise price. The dilution disclosures contained in this section are based upon the instruments issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2020.

  (5) The Company issued 1,000,000 shares of its non-voting Series CF Preferred Stock to an individual in partial payment for marketing services he performed for us, which we valued those at $60,000, or $0.06 per share.

  (6) Does not include up to 3,333,333 Bonus Shares that may be issued in this offering. The Bonus Shares will be issued without any additional consideration received by the company. If we issue all Bonus Shares in this offering, the effective cash price per share paid by investors in this offering would be $0.68. Also does not include up to 666,667 shares of Non-voting Common Stock to be issued to StartEngine Primary in connection with this offering. See “Plan of Distribution and Selling Securityholders.”

 

Future dilution

 

Another important way of looking at dilution is the dilution that happens due to future actions by the company. The investor’s stake in a company could be diluted due to the company issuing additional shares. In other words, when the company issues more shares, the percentage of the company that you own will go down, even though the value of the company may go up. You will own a smaller piece of a larger company. This increase in number of shares outstanding could result from a stock offering (such as an initial public offering, another Regulation A round, a venture capital round, angel investment), employees exercising stock options, or by conversion of certain instruments (e.g. convertible bonds, preferred shares or warrants) into stock.

 

If the company decides to issue more shares, an investor could experience value dilution, with each share being worth less than before, and control dilution, with the total percentage an investor owns being less than before. There may also be earnings dilution, with a reduction in the amount earned per share (though this typically occurs only if the company offers dividends, and most early stage companies are unlikely to offer dividends, preferring to invest any earnings into the company).

 

The type of dilution that hurts early-stage investors most occurs when the company sells more shares in a “down round,” meaning at a lower valuation than in earlier offerings. An example of how this might occur is as follows (numbers are for illustrative purposes only):

 

  In June 2020 Jane invests $20,000 for shares that represent 2% of a company valued at $1 million.

 

  In December the company is doing very well and sells $5 million in shares to venture capitalists on a valuation (before the new investment) of $10 million. Jane now owns only 1.3% of the company but her stake is worth $200,000.

 

  In June 2021 the company has run into serious problems and in order to stay afloat it raises $1 million at a valuation of only $2 million (the “down round”). Jane now owns only 0.89% of the company and her stake is worth only $26,660.

 

This type of dilution might also happen upon conversion of convertible notes into shares. Typically, the terms of convertible notes issued by early-stage companies provide that in the event of another round of financing, the holders of the convertible notes get to convert their notes into equity at a “discount” to the price paid by the new investors, i.e., they get more shares than the new investors would for the same price. Additionally, convertible notes may have a “price cap” on the conversion price, which effectively acts as a share price ceiling. Either way, the holders of the convertible notes get more shares for their money than new investors. In the event that the financing is a “down round” the holders of the convertible notes will dilute existing equity holders, and even more than the new investors do, because they get more shares for their money. Investors should pay careful attention to the number of shares of Common Stock underlying convertible notes that the company may issue in the future, and the terms of those notes.

 

If you are making an investment expecting to own a certain percentage of the company or expecting each share to hold a certain amount of value, it’s important to realize how the value of those shares can decrease by actions taken by the company. Dilution can make drastic changes to the value of each share, ownership percentage, voting control, and earnings per share.

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We estimate that, at a per share price of $0.75, the net proceeds from the sale by us of the 29,173,333 shares in this offering will be approximately $18,891,900, after deducting the estimated offering expenses of approximately $2,988,100. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares by the selling stockholder, from the issuance of Bonus Shares or from the issuance of shares as compensation to StartEngine Primary.

 

The following table below sets forth the uses of proceeds assuming the sale of 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% of the securities offered for sale in this offering by us.

THE COMPANY’S BUSINESS

 

Overview

 

Our business strategy combines concepts from fractional jet membership programs with lessons learned from building blockchains and their communities. We believe the tokenization of flight hours and fractional membership programs offers the possibility of reduced transaction costs and, through the evolution of a marketplace, higher industry fleet utilization. Our purposeful enhancement of price discovery and reduced entry price have the potential to produce fairer and more inclusive results for aircraft owners and travelers alike. 

 

We formed our company on June 4, 2018 and are currently operating as a charter broker. We developed and, in September 2019, launched our booking platform represented by our iOS app JetToken (the “App”). The current version of our App currently functions as a prospecting and quoting platform to arrange private jet travel with third party carriers. Users of our App can research and chose a flight and then contact us via the App to request a firm quote. We then confirm and process payment for the user manually. We launched version 2.0 of our App in February 2021.  Version 2.0 enables users to make payment directly through our App. Our App is directly connected via API to Avinode, the major centralized database in private aviation. Through Avinode we electronically and automatically correspond with operators of private jets who have posted their aircraft for hire. We currently accept both cash and blockchain currency, which our payment processor promptly converts to fiat currency prior to confirming a booking.

 

We have also entered into a Purchase Agreement with Honda Aircraft Company for the acquisition of the first aircraft in a multi-aircraft deal for the HondaJet HA-420 aircraft (the “HondaJet Elites”). Per the agreement, we expect to take delivery of one jet per quarter in each of the four quarters of 2021, starting in the first quarter of 2021. We intend to finance the purchase of these HondaJet Elites through a capital lease facility that we are in the final stages of negotiating. Delivery of our first aircraft would only occur following our finalization of financing arrangements. We have also entered into an Executive Aircraft Management and Charter Services Agreement with Great Western Air, LLC (DBA Cirrus Aviation Services, LLC) (“Cirrus”) pursuant to which Cirrus has agreed to provide for the management, operation, and maintenance of our HondaJet Elites. Cirrus Aviation Services has sent three pilots to train on the HondaJet Elite at the Flight Safety facility on the Honda Aircraft Company campus in Greensboro, NC. A representative of our company was present to observe the first few days of training. As of January 21, 2021, all three pilots have successfully completed training, consistent with the anticipated delivery of our aircraft.

 

Strategy

 

We expect to further develop our App to facilitate our own fleet utilization on our leased HondaJet Elites by enabling clients who have purchased a package of flight hours to view their balances and apply amounts in their accounts to book time on either our HondaJet Elites or third party charters. Ultimately, we expect to expand our App functionality, with specific focus on the integration of a closed Ethereum based blockchain network (the “Network”), enabling clients to access the Jet Tokens in their digital wallets maintained on our Network until clients redeem their Jet Tokens for travel.

 

We have recently engaged Brenda Paauwe-Navori, a member of our Board of Advisors, to lead the effort in selling fractional interests in our HondaJet Elites. Our HondaJet Elite fleet sales efforts will focus on a one year 25-hour jet card membership, a continually refillable jet debit card membership, and a five year, 75-hour per year fractional ownership interest, respectively. Our marketing effort will combine lessons learned from our online and national television campaigns, respectively, with Ms. Paauwe-Navori’s direct relationships and knowledge of select channels that reach existing private travelers and corporate flight departments.

 

In addition to servicing members and third-party charter clients, our HondaJet Elites would be available to address unexpected cancellations or delays on brokered charters. Unlike most of our brokerage competitors, as well as many business jet management companies which require owner approval before their aircraft can be used for third party charter, we believe maintaining a fleet of readily available aircraft to back fill third party charter services provides more reliability and will be an attractive selling point for potential clients. Cirrus may also be able to provide substitute aircraft at competitive rates in periods of excess demand for our HondaJet Elites.

 

19 

 

 

We ultimately intend to issue and sell Jet Tokens on our closed blockchain Network that would be redeemable for time on our HondaJet Elites as well as for private jet travel and ancillary services with third party carriers. We are currently developing and testing our Jet Tokens and formalizing the rules of their use on our platform. Digital assets such as our proposed Jet Token, depending on their structure and rules of use, may be considered a security and the issuance and sale may be subject to registration under the Securities Act. We plan to structure our Jet Token to be in compliance with applicable law, including the federal securities laws. Specifically, we intend to structure Jet Tokens in such a way that they are not treated as securities.

 

We envision a time in which a client purchases from us a jet hour card using cash or blockchain currency and in return receives Jet Tokens redeemable for travel, or maintains funds in a wallet on our platform for purchase of travel, on our fleet, with third party jet operators or on commercial airlines. Through our App the client would seamlessly access their Jet Token balance in their Wallet on the Network; Jet Tokens would be one payment option on the App alongside fiat currency, bitcoin and other blockchain currencies. We also envision a time when our App offers an integrated marketplace for private jet and commercial jet travel (arrivals, departures, aircraft description, aircraft photos, taxes, prices) that has the potential to offer improved access to services for aircraft operators and travelers. We believe aircraft operators would achieve higher revenue per seat mile by filling an otherwise empty plane, and travelers would achieve access to on-demand travel at a lower average cost because of greater market transparency and improved price discovery.

 

We believe our strategy of combining, in our searchable instant booking platform, availability of private jet carriers, commercial airline flights and private jet owners underutilized flight time increases the efficiency and optimizes the cost to our clients of getting from point A to point B on their own terms.

 

Marketing and Promotion

 

Our marketing and advertising efforts are focused on high net worth individuals and corporate flight departments. We have observed that many first-time private flyers have come to market in 2020 in an effort to avoid commercial travel and thereby curtail their prospective exposure to COVID-19. We intend to continue to expand our marketing and advertising through the following channels: online marketing, television advertising and event marketing. Paid social media advertising will drive our online marketing. We have launched 15 and 30 second advertising spots that are targeted at high net worth individuals and corporate executives through a number of channels, including CNBC, Fox Business, and The Golf Channel, as well as online through Facebook. We intend to expand these efforts going forward. Jet Token Inc. and Honda Aircraft Company, LLC announced that they will collaborate in marketing efforts to create joint promotion for the HondaJet Elite and the Jet Token brand. For example, Honda Aircraft Company, LLC has agreed that in certain permitted instances we may use the tag line “POWERED BY HONDAJET” and a related logo in connection with promoting our business. With respect to event marketing we intend to have a presence at both blockchain and business jet industry gatherings.

 

Market Opportunity

 

Over the past 30 years, the market for private jet travel has transformed significantly. First the model of full aircraft ownership transformed into fractional ownership with companies such as NetJets and FlexJet. This was followed by operators offering jet cards and on-demand service through their fleet of aircraft. The latest iteration of private jet travel provides even more flexibility by providing an on-demand service to travelers while leveraging the flight availability of one or more third party carriers. The result of this transformation is a highly segmented industry with numerous market participants offering varying levels of ownership.

 

According to National Business Aviation Association, the business jet industry contributes $150 billion dollars per year to the US economy. In 2018, there were 14,888 business jets in the US fleet that generated 3.9 million flight hours per year, and only 2,748 of the 14,888 total business jets in the United States actually flew charter. Numerous charter brokers and centralized databases each attempt to improve the allocation of that capacity in return for a fee.

 

20 

 

 

Business jet charter operators (those operating under a Part 135 license from the Federal Aviation Administration) logged over a million landings in the US during 2019 according to ARGUS International, Inc., a leading providers of aviation services, including statistical data and ratings. The average flight lasts 1.5 hours with 2-3 passengers, and we estimate the average cost to operate a US business jet at $5,000 per hour. Most charters include the cost of the empty return leg so a 1.5-hour trip typically translates to 3 hours of billed time, or approximately $15,000. As a result, one million landings per year at $7,500 per landing ($15,000 round trip) equals $7.5 billion of revenues in charter landings alone. That's approximately 2,740 charter landings per day at any one of 5,000 private airports or 500 commercial airports.

 

While the current pandemic has had a significant negative impact on the travel industry more broadly, according to the December 17, 2020 issue of JETNET iQ Pulse, takeoffs and landings of Part 135 operated small and medium-sized charter jets in the fourth quarter of 2020 are relatively flat compared to the fourth quarter of 2019 and distances flown have increased by 35.8% for small charter jets and 5.7% for medium-sized charter jets. This compares favorably to both the commercial jet and larger sized charter jet markets.

 

Furthermore, for the other 12,140 business jets that do not fly charter, we believe many private plane owners do not seek FAA certification and special insurance to permit third parties to pay to fly on their planes partly because there is no practical way to source and process vetted, willing, passengers. These owners are permitted under FAA rules to offset only their cost by allowing others to use their aircraft. There is currently no electronic marketplace geared toward aircraft owners seeking systematic recruitment of unrelated “at cost” passengers with an eye toward defraying the expense of jet ownership and operation.

 

We believe that by combining the private jet on-demand model with commercial airline flight availability and prospectively the underutilized flight hours of private jet operators, our company will be positioned to provide optimum flexibility and cost efficiency for our clients. Moreover, we believe that the Jet Tokens, operating on an Ethereum compatible blockchain network (discussed below), will offer a superior and lower cost allocation mechanism of resources in private jet services.

 

The Blockchain Technology

 

We plan to create a closed blockchain based on the Ethereum network to facilitate charter bookings and payments through the mechanism of Jet Tokens, if issued. The payment mechanism with Jet Tokens, if issued, involves the use of an ERC-20 compatible wallet address on our private Ethereum blockchain. The wallet would be accessible via our App and users would be able to view their Jet Token balance and to choose to select some or all of that balance as a means of payment. For example, upon processing fiat or blockchain currency payment for a new 25 hour jet card member, we would deposit Jet Tokens into the wallet of that member corresponding to 25 hours of travel on our fleet. Via the App, the member would then book travel, either on our fleet or on third party aircraft, and redeem Jet Tokens to pay for such travel.

 

The payment mechanism without tokens involves the use of white label solutions from two nationally recognized payment processors. One processor is dedicated to accepting various forms of virtual currency and the other is dedicated to accepting fiat payment through such payment methods as ACH, wire transfer, credit card, Apple Pay and many other domestic and international payment processors.

 

If issued, Jet Tokens will be issued electronically on the ERC20 standard consisting of software code and managed by us through our private Ethereum-based blockchain Network. ERC-20 defines a common list of rules for Ethereum tokens to follow within the larger Ethereum ecosystem, allowing developers to accurately predict interaction between tokens. These rules include how the tokens are transferred between addresses and how data within each token is accessed. Transactions on this network are automatically updated and recorded in an open and distributed ledger known as the Ethereum Blockchain. This means that there is no single entity governing content or prices of goods and services that may be purchased or sold.

 

The advantages of utilizing blockchain technology for air charter services payment settlement include a significant reduction in financial transaction costs that financial institutions charge in payment settlement for air charter services. For example, private blockchain transaction costs are set at the discretion of the owner of the chain and may be as low as a fraction of a cent, representing minimal costs of electricity and processing power. In comparison, credit card fees may range between 1% and 4% of the transaction value, which can be significant in absolute dollar terms given the high level of expense associated with some private jet charters. Financial institutions may also charge significant wire transfer fees and, in the case of international wire transactions in U.S. or non-U.S. currency, correspondence bank charges and bank imposed exchange rates are typically built in to produce an additional profit margin for the financial institution, further increasing transaction expenses.

 

21 

 

 

Transferring funds, or if created and sold Jet Tokens, using blockchain technology may significantly increase efficiencies in the delivery of air charter services. For example, use of blockchain technology will enable us to deliver service in exchange for payment or, if issued, upon redemption of Jet Tokens, on evenings, weekends and holidays when banks are closed. We anticipate that we will also be able to deliver services on a same day basis against payment. This travel may not have otherwise taken place, for want of payment technology. Other forms of payment may not clear on the same day or could be delayed if exceeding a client’s credit card limit. International wires can take from one to four business days to clear as they must often transit from a foreign bank, through a domestic correspondent bank and then finally to a domestic recipient bank. These improved efficiencies and rapid settlement of large transactions that are typical in the air charter services industry may in turn allow for faster booking confirmation of air charter flights, particularly on weekends and holidays coincident with periods of peak travel demand.

 

Our platform is currently directly connected via API to Avinode, the major centralized database in private aviation. Through Avinode we electronically and automatically correspond with operators of private jets who have already posted their aircraft for hire. We depend on the cooperation and collaboration of third-party air charter services in that we would expect their timely reply to inbound charter pricing requests, and their willingness to confirm bookings and accept payments from us. We currently expect to engage with them as middle-men, selling access to their aircraft. Most third-party air charter service providers already contribute substantial data on their aircraft and aircraft availability to Avinode. Generally, these third-party air charter service providers provide updated information on a daily basis and we do not expect them to deviate from their current business practices in their cooperation / collaboration with us. We intend to pay third party air charter service providers (and airlines) on a timely basis and in fiat currency.

 

If we create and issue Jet Token, customers would be able through our App to redeem Jet Tokens for flight time on our fleet, for a third party jet operator or for commercial airline travel. These Jet Tokens would be held in custody in the client’s wallet. The wallet would be integrated with the App and would enable direct booking and payment. The customer may transfer their Jet Tokens to another customer but that customer would also be required to maintain their Jet Tokens in a wallet on our platform. We would burn (i.e., remove from circulation) any Jet Tokens that have been redeemed. We currently contemplate that, through our private, Ethereum-based, blockchain Network, we know the identity of each App user and restrict transfer of our ERC-20 compatible tokens to wallets accessible via the App.

 

Today we have a smart contract on the Ethereum network running for demonstration purposes (PPJC). Our founder, Mike Winston, together with a developer, successfully executed a separate blockchain project and for this reason we have confidence around sourcing the blockchain development talent to build out the Jet Token blockchain functionality.

 

Our Aircraft

 

We have also entered into a Purchase Agreement with Honda Aircraft Company for the acquisition of the first aircraft in a multi-aircraft deal for the HondaJet HA-420 aircraft (the “HondaJet Elites”). Per the agreement, we are scheduled to take delivery of one jet per quarter in each of the four quarters of 2021, starting in the first quarter of 2021. We intend to finance the purchase of these HondaJet Elites through a capital lease facility that we are in the final stages of negotiating. Delivery of our first aircraft would only occur following our finalization of financing arrangements. HondaJet Elites are ideally suited for trips under 2 hours carrying 2-4 passengers plus two pilots. We believe the HondaJet Elite is one of the most spacious and cost-efficient light jets on the market with ample baggage and interior room (including an enclosed lavatory). The wing mounted engines allow for a tranquil, spacious interior. Engines on the wings mean less weight on the tail and more room in the cabin.

 

22 

 

 

 

 

We currently intend to base the fleet in Las Vegas, NV, a top ten private jet destination and may relocate the fleet based on seasonal travel patterns and the travel patterns of our membership.

 

We estimate that thirty calendar days per year (holidays, major sporting events etc.) it's difficult, if not impossible, to fly private without the guaranteed access provided by a jet membership program such as ours. The ability to safely offer guaranteed capacity, on demand, is one of the most important features one can deliver in private aviation. Also, our aircraft give us the ability to attract online visitors with dynamically priced offers. Additionally, the prospective terms of our aircraft leases allow us to make very low minimum payments, significantly reducing the monthly burn rate associated with most private aviation startups.

 

We have also entered into an Executive Aircraft Management and Charter Services Agreement with Cirrus pursuant to which Cirrus has agreed to provide for the management, operation, and maintenance of our HondaJet Elites. Cirrus Aviation Services has sent three pilots to train on the HondaJet Elite at the Flight Safety facility on the Honda Aircraft Company campus in Greensboro, NC. A representative of our company was present to observe the first few days of training. As of January 21, 2021, all three pilots have successfully completed training, consistent with the anticipated delivery of our aircraft.

 

Cirrus is the largest private jet charter company based in Las Vegas. The Cirrus team has been managing and operating aircraft – commercially and privately – for more than 40 years. In addition, Cirrus is:

 

·FAA Eligible On-Demand Approved
·ARG/US Platinum Rated
·Wyvern Recommended

 

Cirrus will maintain, service and operate our HondaJet Elites on our behalf and in compliance with all applicable FAA regulations and certification requirements. Cirrus has the capability to provide substitute aircraft at competitive rates in periods of excess demand for our HondaJet Elites.

Competition

 

The private air travel industry is extraordinarily competitive. We will compete against private jet charter and fractional jet companies. Established private jet brokerage and fractional companies include but are not limited to, NetJets/MarquisJets, FlexJet, VistaGlobal (including JetSmarter powered by XO), SentientJet, WheelsUp, JetSuite, Flight Options, Nicholas Air, Jet Alliance, Executive Air Share, Plane Sense, One Sky Jets, StarJets, Jet Aviation, and Luxury Aircraft Solutions. All compete for passengers with a variety of pricing plans, aircraft types, blackout periods, booking terms, flyer programs and other products and services, including seating, food, entertainment and other on-board amenities.

 

Both the private jet charter companies and the legacy airlines and low-cost carriers have numerous competitive advantages that enable them to attract both business and leisure travelers. Our competitors may have corporate travel contracts that direct large numbers of employees to fly with a preferred carrier. The enormous route networks operated by our competitors, combined with their marketing and partnership relationships with regional airlines and international alliance partner carriers, allow them to generate increased passenger traffic from domestic and international cities. Our access to smaller aircraft fleet networks and lack of connecting traffic and marketing alliances puts us at a competitive disadvantage, particularly with respect to our appeal to higher-fare business travelers.

 

The fractional private jet companies and the legacy airlines and low-cost carriers each operate larger fleets of aircraft and have greater financial resources, which would permit them to add service in response to our entry into new markets. Due to our relatively small size, we are more susceptible to a fare wars or other competitive activities, which could prevent us from attaining the level of traffic or maintaining the level of sales required to sustain profitable operations.

 

In 2018 and 2019, respectively, VistaJet acquired XOJET and JetSmarter, combining its heavy jet subscription-based service targeting multinational corporations and ultra-high net worth individuals with XOJET’s super-midsize jet on demand service and JetSmarter’s digital booking platform for business aviation. In addition, during 2020 Wheels Up acquired Delta Private Jets as well as Gama Aviation, a business jet services company. Increased consolidation in our industry could further intensify the competitive environment we face.

 

Intellectual Property

 

We have filed an application to register our brand name, Jet Token, and our logo, with the United States Patent and Trademark Office.  We have also purchased our domain name, jettoken.com and operate our website under that domain.  We are the sole owner of the copyrights in and to the software code underlying our App. 

 

Employees

 

In light of our early stage of development, we have 3 full-time employees, our Executive Chairman and Treasurer, our Chief Executive Officer and President and a marketing staff person. In addition, we have recently engaged Brenda Paauwe-Navori, a member of our Board of Advisors, to lead the effort in selling fractional interests in our HondaJet Elites.

   

Regulation

 

Know your Customer / Anti-money Laundering Regulations

 

Each person or entity that establishes a wallet on our platform and purchases Jet Tokens will be subject to identity screening and background checks in compliance with Transportation Security Administration (“TSA”) regulations (discussed below) and federal law regarding anti-money laundering and know your customers (“AML/KYC”) obligations. Jet Tokens may only be redeemed by our clients who have a wallet on our platform and are subject to these identity screening requirements. To establish a wallet on our platform for the purchase of Jet Tokens, all users must agree to the representations, terms and conditions regarding disclosure of their identity. In addition, prior to redemption and use of the Jet Tokens, all transferees of Jet Tokens must be approved members of our platform which is only possible after going through our application process, including stringent AML/KYC background checks and TSA anti-terrorism watch list checks.

 

24 

 

 

Regulations Applicable to the Ownership and Operation of Our Aircraft

 

Once we have leased our aircraft, Cirrus, which will maintain and manage our aircraft, is subject to a high degree of regulation that affects our business, including regulations governing aviation activity, safety standards and environmental standards.

 

U.S. Department of Transportation (“DOT”)

 

The DOT primarily regulates economic issues affecting air transportation such as the air carrier’s financial and management fitness, insurance, consumer protection and competitive practices. The DOT has the authority to investigate and bring proceedings to enforce its regulations and may assess civil penalties, revoke operating authority and seek criminal sanctions. Our operating as an air charter carrier is regulated and certificated by the DOT. The DOT authorizes the carrier to engage in on-demand air transportation within the United States, its territories and possessions. The DOT can suspend or revoke that authority for cause, essentially stopping all operations.

 

Federal Aviation Administration (“FAA”)

 

The FAA primarily regulates flight operations, in particular matters affecting air safety, such as airworthiness requirements for aircraft and pilot, mechanic, dispatcher and flight attendant certification. The FAA regulates:

 

  aircraft and associated equipment (and all aircraft are subject to ongoing airworthiness standards),

 

  maintenance and repair facility certification

 

  certification and regulation of pilots and cabin crew, and

 

  management of airspace.

 

In order to engage in air transportation for hire, each air carrier is required to obtain an FAA operating certificate authorizing the airline to operate using specified equipment in specified types of air service. In the case of our leased aircraft, it is a Part 135 license. The FAA has the authority to modify, suspend temporarily or revoke permanently the authority to provide air transportation for failure to comply with FAA regulations. The FAA can assess civil penalties for such failures or institute proceedings for the imposition and collection of monetary fines for the violation of certain FAA regulations. The FAA can revoke authority to provide air transportation on an emergency basis, without notice and hearing, where significant safety issues are involved. The FAA monitors compliance with maintenance, flight operations and safety regulations, maintains onsite representatives and performs inspections of a carrier’s aircraft, employees and records.

 

The FAA also has the authority to issue maintenance/airworthiness directives and other mandatory orders relating to aircraft and engines, fire retardant and smoke detection devices, collision and windshear avoidance systems, navigational equipment, noise abatement and the mandatory removal and replacement of aircraft parts that have failed or may fail in the future. FAA enforcement authority over aircraft includes the power to ground aircraft or limit their usage.

 

Transportation Security Administration

 

The TSA is responsible for oversight of passenger and baggage screening, cargo security measures, airport security, assessment and distribution of intelligence and security research and development. Air carriers are subject to TSA mandates and oversight in connection with screening passenger identities and screening baggage. TSA regulations governing passenger identification, which we will apply at the time of Jet Token purchase as well as at the time of travel, requires all passengers to provide identification using a valid verifying identity document. In addition, all passengers must provide their full name, date of birth, and gender, which is screened against the travel ban watch list in effect at the time of initial screening and at the time of travel.

 

25

 

 

All air carriers are also subject to certain provisions of the Communications Act of 1934 because of their extensive use of radio and other communication facilities and are required to obtain an aeronautical radio license from the Federal Communications Commission, or the FCC.

 

THE COMPANY’S PROPERTY

 

We lease space for our corporate headquarters, consisting of our office space and the use of shared conference facilities. We also lease a 4-person office space in Tel Aviv to facilitate our technology development work.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes included in this report. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates, and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Unless otherwise indicated, the latest results discussed below are as of June 30, 2020. The financial statements included in this filing as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2020 are unaudited, and may not include year-end adjustments necessary to make those financial statements comparable to audited results, although in the opinion of management all adjustments necessary to make interim statements of operations not misleading have been included.

 

Overview

 

We intend to combine concepts from fractional jet membership programs with lessons learned from building blockchain currencies. We believe the tokenization of flight hours and fractional membership programs offers the possibility of reduced transaction costs and, through the evolution of a marketplace, higher industry fleet utilization. We believe our purposeful enhancement of price discovery and reduced entry price have the potential to produce fairer and more inclusive results for aircraft owners and travelers alike.

 

Our company was formed on June 4, 2018 (“Inception”) and we have limited significant operating history, and no revenue generating activity through June 30, 2020. During the next twelve months, we intend to fund our operations with capital raised from this offering and our recent offering of Non-voting Common Stock and potentially future debt or equity financing.  We cannot assure you that in the future we will be able to raise capital on acceptable terms or at all.  If we are unable to obtain sufficient amounts of additional capital, we may be required to reduce the scope of our planned development and operations, which could harm our business, financial condition and operating results.

Our expenses consist of operating costs for ongoing operations. Expenses related to our Regulation A and Regulation Crowdfunding offerings discussed below have been included, as a deduction, in additional paid in capital on our balance sheet. Our ongoing operating costs reflect staffing, office rent, utilities and other reasonable and customary overhead expense. The increase in general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 reflect primarily expenses related to the hiring of our Chief Executive Officer in September 2019, non-cash stock option expense and professional service fees. Expenses for professional services providers totaled approximately $25,375 during the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to approximately $61,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2019. Within the professional services cost for the six months ended June 30, 2019, was $20,000 for Sutton View Advisors LLC, a related party, for financial advisory services under an agreement entered into in October of 2018 and terminated effective December 31, 2019.

Our general and administrative expenses for the period from Inception to December 31, 2018 consist primarily of $24,500 in payments made to Sutton View Advisors LLC in connection with the management of our company, legal and professional service expense and expenses associated with participation in the Hive Ashdod by Gvahim accelerator program. General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2019 consist primarily of operating costs for ongoing operations. Our operating costs in 2019 reflect staffing, office rent, utilities and other reasonable and customary overhead expense. Expenses for professional services providers totaled approximately $201,000 during the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to approximately $31,000 during the stub period from Inception to December 31, 2018. Within the professional services cost for the year ended December 31, 2019, was $75,000 for fees paid to a recruiter, approximately $86,000 in legal and accounting fees and $40,000 for Sutton View Advisors LLC, a related party, for financial advisory services under an agreement entered into in October of 2018 and terminated effective December 31, 2019. We also incurred research and development expenses in 2019 for the development of our App, as well as marketing expenses to primarily to promote the launch of our App.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of June 30, 2020, our cash and equivalents were $1,107,160 compared to $95,886 as of December 31, 2019, reflecting primarily the proceeds of our Regulation A offering of $1,426,231 through June 30, 2020, net of offering costs, less ongoing operating expenses. We are a “development stage company” and have only recently begun generating revenue. Our cash utilization rate was approximately $20,000 per month in 2019 through September, increasing to approximately $45,000 per month for the remainder of the year reflecting the hiring of our Chief Executive Officer and President as of September 2019. In September 2020, we entered into a consulting agreement with Brenda Paauwe-Navori, a member of the Company’s Board of Advisors, to lead the effort in selling fractional interests in our HondaJet Elites in return for payment of $12,500 per month in addition to equity-based compensation. As a result, our cash utilization rate increased to $57,500 per month.

 

To date, we funded our operations primarily through the issuance of equity securities and to a lesser extent, a loan under the Paycheck Protection Program. In 2018, we concluded our sale of Series Seed Preferred Stock, issuing 1,799,999 shares for gross proceeds of $54,000, of which 816,666 shares were redeemed by us, in accordance with their terms, at the redemption price of $0.30 per share. In February 2019, we commenced an offering under Regulation Crowdfunding and completed the offering in July 2019. In this offering, we issued 17,826,385 shares of non-voting Series CF Preferred Stock for gross proceeds of approximately $1,069,583. In September 2019, we issued an additional 1,000,000 shares of non-voting Series CF Preferred Stock to a single individual as partial payment for marketing services provided.

 

In February 2020, we commenced an offering under Regulation A for a maximum offering amount of $10,000,000, which terminated on December 31, 2020 (the “Initial Regulation A Offering”). We issued 32,097,160 shares of Non-voting Common Stock representing approximately $10 million in gross proceeds. In March 2020, our Founder and Executive Chairman, Mike Winston, advanced $70,000 to the company in the form of a non-interest-bearing loan, which has subsequently been repaid in full.  

 

In May 2020, we received a loan in the amount of $121,000 pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act which has been forgiven in its entirety.  See Note 4 to our unaudited financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2020 for a description of this loan.

 

Plan of Operation 

 

To date, we have entered into a Purchase Agreement with Honda Aircraft Company for the acquisition of the first aircraft in a multi-aircraft deal for the HondaJet HA-420 aircraft (the “HondaJet Elites”). Per the agreement, we are scheduled to take delivery of one jet per quarter in each of the four quarters of 2021, starting in the first quarter of 2021. We intend to finance the purchase of these HondaJet Elites through a capital lease facility that would provide for a 5-year capital lease for each aircraft at the time of its delivery. We are in the final stages of negotiating this facility. Delivery of our first aircraft would only occur following our finalization of financing arrangements. Capital leases under this facility will be reflected as debt on our balance sheet . We have also entered into an Executive Aircraft Management and Charter Services Agreement with Cirrus pursuant to which Cirrus has agreed to provide for the management, operation, and maintenance of our HondaJet Elites. In addition, we have retained Ms. Paauwe-Navori to lead the effort in selling fractional interests in our HondaJet Elites and expect to hire an individual to support our sales and marketing efforts following delivery of our aircraft.

 

Our strategy includes offering private jet time in a tokenized format through our Jet Token, if issued, and incorporating commercial flight booking as a complement to private jet charters into our App and we estimate that the additional cost of incorporating this functionality into our App could cost up to an additional $400,000 in 2021. We have continued to engage a third-party software developer based in Israel on a limited basis. In furtherance of our internal software development we have opened an office in Tel Aviv, Israel. In the new office we plan to hire a small staff tasked with building familiarity with the third party App code and with developing that code consistent with the company’s aforementioned objectives (private/commercial booking and tokenization).

 

29

 

 

Assuming we raise the maximum amount in this offering, we intend to complete our development plan for the app as described above and to acquire four additional HondaJet Elite aircraft, in addition to those covered by our existing Purchase Agreement with Honda Aircraft Company, provided we can match customers to those aircraft as we acquire them. Setting aside our revenue expectations for purposes of discussion, we estimate that the total cost of financing and management of our first 4 HondaJet Elites, including payments to Cirrus and our overhead, will be $9.2 million on an annual basis, assuming a utilization rate of our aircraft of 600 hours per year. We further estimate our annual breakeven utilization to be approximately 427 hours per year at a total cost of approximately $8.3 million. Generally, payments to both Honda Aircraft Company and to Cirrus will vary depending on the number of aircraft leased and utilization rate of the aircraft.

 

Assuming we raise the maximum amount in this offering and that the costs associated with financing and management of any additional HondaJet Elites are generally the same as for our initial aircraft, in a worst-case scenario where we are unable to generate any revenue whatsoever, i.e. a zero utilization of our aircraft and no third party charter bookings, the proceeds of the offering, together with existing working capital, would fund these costs plus our ongoing operating costs and App development costs discussed above for two and a half years.

 

Assuming we raise 50% of the amount of the offering, we intend to complete our development plan for the app as described above and to acquire two additional HondaJet Elite aircraft provided we can match customers to those aircraft as we acquire them. In a worst case scenario of no revenue, the proceeds of 50% of this offering would fund these costs plus our ongoing operating costs and App development costs discussed above for four and a half years.

 

We estimate our breakeven point for our first 4 HondaJet Elites at 427 hours per year at our presently negotiated cost structure and currently estimated ongoing operating costs. While we hope to reach that level of utilization within the first year following delivery of the aircraft, to the extent that we do not, we may need to raise additional capital to continue funding our operations.

 

We also contemplate acquiring addition aircraft in the future to grow our business and we currently anticipate financing the acquisition of such aircraft through the sale of fractional interests, debt/lease financing and advanced sales of flight time, rather than through additional equity capital raising.

 

Trend Information 

 

Our business and operations are sensitive to general business and economic conditions in the U.S. and worldwide along with local, state, and federal governmental policy decisions. A host of factors beyond our control could cause fluctuations in these conditions. Adverse conditions may include but are not limited to: changes in the airline industry, blockchain asset regulations by authorities, fuel and operating costs, changes to corporate governance best practices for executive flying, general demand for private jet travel, market acceptance of our business model and COVID-19 issues more fully described below. These adverse conditions could affect our financial condition and the results of operations.

 

On January 30, 2019, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 coronavirus outbreak a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern” and on March 10, 2020, declared it to be a pandemic. Actions taken around the world to help mitigate the spread of the coronavirus include restrictions on travel, and quarantines in certain areas, and forced closures for certain types of public places and businesses. The COVID-19 coronavirus and actions taken to mitigate it have had and are expected to continue to have an adverse impact on the economies and financial markets of many countries, including the geographical area in which the Company operates. While it is unknown how long these conditions will last and what the complete financial effect will be to us, it is known that the travel industry in which we operate has been severely impacted.

 

While Covid-19 has negatively impacted aviation as a whole, we believe the light business jet sector has been less effected as people who previously had not used business jets are utilizing light jets like our HondaJet Elites for safety reasons and people who previously had used larger, more expensive, business jets but have felt the effects of the current business environment, are downsizing to smaller jets for economic reasons. Private jet charter hours, a key measure for our sub-segment of air travel, dropped sharply in mid-March but have steadily risen since that time. For example, hours flown in the two-week period that includes the last week of June and the first week of July are only down 10% versus the same period in 2019. We are monitoring the situation and exploring opportunities with respect to travel behavior for when travel restrictions ease.

Holders of Series Seed Preferred Stock will receive a liquidation preference equal to the greater of (i) the original issue price of such shares plus any dividends declared but unpaid thereon, or (ii) such amount per share as would have been payable had all shares of Series Seed Preferred Stock been converted into voting Common Stock immediately prior to such liquidation, dissolution, winding up or Deemed Liquidation Event.

 

If, upon such liquidation, dissolution, or winding up or Deemed Liquidation Event, the funds and assets that are distributable to the holders of Series Seed Preferred Stock are insufficient to permit the payment to such holders of the full amount of their respective liquidation preference, then all of such funds will be distributed ratably among the holders of the Series Seed Preferred Stock in proportion to the full amounts to which they would otherwise be entitled to receive.

 

Conversion Rights

 

Shares of Series Seed Preferred Stock are convertible, at the option of the holder, at any time, into fully paid and nonassessable shares of the company’s voting Common Stock at the then-applicable conversion rate.

 

Additionally, each share of Series Seed Preferred Stock will automatically convert into voting Common Stock:

 

40 

 

 

  upon the closing of the sale of shares of voting Common Stock to the public in a firm commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or

  upon the vote or written consent of the holders of at least majority of the then outstanding shares of Series Seed Preferred Stock.

 

The conversion rate is currently one share of voting Common Stock per share of Series Seed Preferred Stock. The conversion rate is subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, reverse stock splits, the issuance of a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of voting Common Stock, certain consolidations or mergers, recapitalizations, reclassifications or other similar events affecting the voting Common Stock.

 

Distributions of Company Securities

 

In the event of a dividend or other distribution on voting Common Stock payable in additional securities of the company (other than shares of voting Common Stock), the company will make a dividend or other distribution to the holders of the Series Seed Preferred Stock in an amount equal to the amount of securities as the holders of the Series Seed Preferred Stock would have received on an as converted basis. 

 

Series Seed Preferred Stock Protective Provisions

 

So long as at least 25% of the originally issued shares of Series Seed Preferred Stock are outstanding, the company will not, either directly or indirectly by amendment, merger, consolidation or otherwise, do any of the following without (in addition to any other vote required by law or the Restated Certificate) the written consent or affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series Seed Preferred Stock, voting on an as converted basis:

 

  alter the rights, powers or privileges of the Series Seed Preferred set forth in the Restated Certificate or bylaws, as then in effect, in a way that adversely affects the Series Seed Preferred;

 

  issue any new class or series of capital stock at a price less than the original issue price of the Series Seed Preferred having rights, powers, or privileges that are senior to or on a parity with the Series Seed Preferred;

 

  redeem or repurchase any shares of voting Common Stock (other than pursuant to employee or consultant agreements giving the company the right to repurchase shares upon the termination of services pursuant to the terms of the applicable agreement); or

 

  declare or pay any dividend or otherwise make a distribution to holders of Series Seed Preferred or voting Common Stock.

 

Redemption

 

Unless prohibited by Delaware law governing distributions to stockholders, the company has the right to redeem some or all of the outstanding shares of Series Seed Preferred at a price per share equal to the greater of the original issue price or the latest issue price of capital stock of the company. Redemption is not required to be ratable among all holders of the Series Seed Preferred.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION AND SELLING SECURITYHOLDERS

 

Plan of Distribution

 

The company is offering up to 29,173,333 shares of Non-voting Common Stock (not including up to 666,667 shares issuable as compensation to StartEngine Primary as discussed below), plus up to 3,333,333 additional shares of Non-Voting Common Stock eligible to be issued as Bonus Shares to certain investors as described below, and the selling stockholder is offering a maximum of 4,160,000 shares of Non-voting Common Stock, in each case at a price of $0.75 per share on a “best efforts” basis. No additional consideration will be received by the company for the issuance of Bonus Shares and the company will absorb the cost of the issuance of the Bonus Shares. The Non-voting Common Stock converts into voting Common Stock of the company automatically upon the occurrence of an initial public offering or a merger of the company into another entity. As such, the company is also qualifying up to 37,333,333 shares of voting Common Stock under the Offering Statement of which this Offering Circular is part, including the maximum amount of Bonus Shares and shares issuable as compensation to StartEngine Primary.

 

The company has engaged StartEngine Primary, LLC (“StartEngine Primary”) as its placement agent to assist in the placement of its securities in those states it is registered to undertake such activities, including soliciting potential investors on a best efforts basis. As such, StartEngine Primary is an "underwriter" within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act. StartEngine Primary is under no obligation to purchase any securities or arrange for the sale of any specific number or dollar amount of securities. Persons who desire information about the offering may find it at www.startengine.com. This Offering Circular will be furnished to prospective investors via download 24 hours per day, 7 days per week on the startengine.com website.

(1) The company will not receive any proceeds from the issuance of Bonus Shares or shares issuable as compensation to StartEngine Primary, nor pay any commissions with respect to those shares. As a result, they are not reflected in the above total amounts.

 

The company will also be required to issue to StartEngine Primary shares of our Non-voting Common Stock equal to two percent of the gross proceeds raised through StartEngine Primary in this offering (excluding Bonus Shares), rounded to the nearest whole share. The shares will not be sold during the offering, or sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, or hypothecated, or be the subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put, or call transaction that would result in the effective economic disposition of the securities by any person for a period of 180 days immediately following the date of qualification or commencement of sales of the public offering pursuant to which the warrants were issued, except as provided in FINRA Rule 5110(g)(2).

 

Other Terms

 

StartEngine Primary has also agreed to perform the following services in exchange for the compensation discussed above:

 

  design, build, and create our campaign page,

  provide us with a dedicated account manager and marketing consulting services,

  provide a standard purchase agreement to execute between us and investors, which may be used at our option and
  design, with our approval, the digital ads and manage the digital advertising platform accounts for us and

42 

 

 

In addition to the commission described above, the company will also pay a $15,000 advance fee to StartEngine Primary for accountable out of pocket expenses. Any portion of this amount not expended and accounted for will be returned to the company.

 

StartEngine Primary or its affiliates may, among other things, introduce the company to potential target businesses or assist the company in raising additional capital, as needs may arise in the future. If StartEngine Primary or its affiliates provides services to the company after this offering, the company may pay StartEngine Primary or its affiliates fair and reasonable fees that would be determined at that time in an arm’s length negotiation.

 

StartEngine Primary intends to use an online platform provided by StartEngine Crowdfunding, Inc. (“StartEngine”), an affiliate of StartEngine Primary, at the domain name www.startengine.com (the “Online Platform”) to provide technology tools to allow for the sales of securities in this offering. In addition, StartEngine will assist with the facilitation of credit and debit card payments through the Online Platform. Fees payable with respect to the use of credit cards to purchase the shares are for the account of the company and we have agreed to reimburse StartEngine for any such fees incurred.

 

We have also agreed that 6% of the total funds committed in this offering will be held back as a deposit hold in case of any ACH refunds or credit card chargebacks. The hold will remain in effect for 180 days following the close of the offering. 75% of this hold back will be released after 60 days and the remaining 25% shall be held for the remaining 120 days.

 

Subscription Procedure

 

After the Offering Statement has been qualified by the Securities and Exchange Commission, we will accept tenders of funds to purchase the Non-voting Common Stock. The company may close on investments on a “rolling” basis (so not all investors will receive their shares on the same date).

 

Initially, all of the shares sold under this offering will be sold by the Company until the company has sold 26,666,667 shares. Thereafter, at each closing 37.6% of the shares sold to investors will be newly issued shares sold by us and 62.4% will be shares sold by the selling stockholder until all of the shares offered by the selling stockholder have been sold.

 

Investors may subscribe by tendering funds by wire, credit or debit card or ACH transfer to the escrow account to be setup by the Escrow Agent. Tendered funds will remain in escrow until a closing has occurred. StartEngine Crowdfunding will assist with the facilitation of credit and debit card payments through the Online Platform. The company estimates that processing fees for credit card subscriptions will be approximately 3.5% of total funds invested per transaction, although credit card processing fees may fluctuate. The company intends to pay these fees and will reimburse StartEngine Crowdfunding for transaction fees and return fees that it incurs for returns and chargebacks. The company estimates that approximately 70% of the gross proceeds raised in this offering will be paid via credit card. This assumption was used in estimating the payment processing fees included in the total offering expenses set forth in “Use of Proceeds.” Upon closing, funds tendered by investors will be made available to the company and the selling stockholder, as applicable, subject to the 6% hold back described above.

 

The minimum investment in this offering is $99, or 135 shares of Non-voting Common Stock. 

 

In order to invest, you will be required to subscribe to the offering via the Online Platform and will agree to the terms of the offering, the Subscription Agreement and any other relevant exhibit attached thereto.  Investors will be required to complete a subscription agreement in order to invest. The subscription agreement includes a representation by the investor to the effect that, if the investor is not an “accredited investor” as defined under securities law, the investor is investing an amount that does not exceed the greater of 10% of his or her annual income or 10% of your net worth (excluding the investor’s principal residence).

 

The company has entered into an Escrow Services Agreement with Prime Trust, LLC (the “Escrow Agent”) and StartEngine Primary. Investor funds will be held by the Escrow Agent pending closing or termination of the offering. All subscribers will be instructed by the company or its agents to transfer funds by wire, credit or debit card, or ACH transfer directly to the escrow account established for this offering. The company may terminate the offering at any time for any reason at its sole discretion. Investors should understand that acceptance of their funds into escrow does not necessarily result in their receiving shares; escrowed funds may be returned.

 

43 

 

 

Prime Trust, LLC is not participating as an underwriter or placement agent or sales agent of this Offering and will not solicit any investment in the company, recommend the company’s securities or provide investment advice to any prospective investor, and no communication through any medium, including any website, should be construed as such, or distribute this Offering Circular or other offering materials to investors. The use of Prime Trust, LLC’s technology should not be interpreted and is not intended as an endorsement or recommendation by it of the company or this Offering. All inquiries regarding this Offering or escrow should be made directly to the company.

 

For its services, Escrow Agent will receive fees of approximately $750,000, assuming the maximum amount of $25 million is raised in this offering.

 

StartEngine Secure LLC, an affiliate of StartEngine Primary, will serve as transfer agent to maintain stockholder information on a book-entry basis. We will not issue shares in physical or paper form. Instead, our shares will be recorded and maintained on our stockholder register.

 

Forum Selection Provision 

 

The subscription agreement provides that state or federal courts located in the State of Delaware are the exclusive forum for all actions or proceedings relating to the subscription agreement. However, this exclusive forum provision does not apply to actions arising under the federal securities laws.

 

Selling Stockholder

 

Mr. Winston, the selling stockholder, will sell up to a maximum of 4,160,000 shares of Non-voting Common Stock, representing 10.7% of our outstanding shares of Non-voting Common Stock, after giving effect to the share exchange described below.

 

Subsequent to December 31, 2020, we entered into a share exchange agreement with Mr. Winston pursuant to which we agreed to issue to Mr. Winston 6,646,667 shares of Non-voting Common Stock in exchange for 6,646,667 shares of voting Common Stock held by him, effective immediately prior to the qualification of the Offering Statement of which this Offering Circular is a part. After giving effect to this share exchange, the outstanding shares of Non-voting Common Stock would have been 38,743,827 shares. Pursuant to an irrevocable power of attorney, the selling stockholder has agreed to the allocation of shares as between him and the company as described above and has appointed Mr. Murnane as his attorney in fact to sell his shares of Non-voting Common Stock in this offering and to remit the proceeds from such sale to him less commissions, subject to the 6% holdback described above.

 

The following table, which reflects the effect of the share exchange, sets forth the name of the selling stockholder, the number of shares of voting Common Stock and Non-voting Common Stock beneficially owned by him prior to this offering, the number of shares of Non-Voting Common Stock being offered by him in this offering and the number of shares and percentage of outstanding shares of both voting Common Stock and Non-voting Common Stock to be beneficially owned by him after this offering, assuming that all of his shares are sold in the offering.

 

We expect to pay all of the expenses of the offering (other than the 7% commissions charged by StartEngine Primary and payable with respect to the selling stockholder shares sold in the offering) but will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of selling stockholder shares in the offering.

Discounted Price for StartEngine OWNers

 

Certain investors in this offering are entitled to 10% Bonus Shares of our Non-Voting Common Stock (effectively a discount on the price paid per share). For example, anyone who is a member of the StartEngine OWNers bonus program will receive 110 shares for every 100 shares they purchase in the offering. Fractional shares will not be distributed and share bonuses will be determined by rounding down to the nearest whole share. The general public can become members of the StartEngine OWNers bonus program on StartEngine's website for $275 per year.  Membership will auto renew every year. A member of the program can cancel their renewal at any time. Once the individual cancels, their membership will expire on the next anniversary of their membership. With the OWNer’s Bonus, the investor will earn 10% bonus shares on all investments they make in participating campaigns on StartEngine.  StartEngine Crowdfunding, Inc. will determine whether an investor qualifies as a StartEngine OWNer.

Independent Auditor’s Report

To the shareholders and the board of directors of Jet Token Inc.

 

Report on the Financial Statements

 

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Jet Token Inc. (the "Company") as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the related statement of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2019 and the period June 4, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018 and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements").

 

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

Auditor’s Responsibility

 

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.

 

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

 

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

 

Opinion

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2019 and the period June 4, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018.

The Company believes the tokenization of flight hours and (as the enterprise matures) fractional membership programs offers the possibility of reduced transaction costs and, through the evolution of a marketplace, higher industry fleet utilization. The Company’s purposeful enhancement of price discovery and reduced entry price have the potential to produce fairer and more inclusive results for aircraft owners and travelers alike.

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Going Concern and Management Plans

The Company has only recently been formed, has limited operating history, and no revenue generating activity to date. These above matters raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  During the next twelve months, the Company intends to fund its operations with the remaining capital from its Regulation Crowdfunding campaign, a Paycheck Protection Plan Loan, the Economic Injury Disaster Loan Emergency Advance and the Company’s current Regulation A offering. The Company also has the ability to reduce cash burn to preserve capital. Accordingly, management believes that substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern has been alleviated.  There are no assurances, however, that management will be able to raise capital on terms acceptable to the Company.  If the Company is unable to obtain sufficient amounts of additional capital, the Company may be required to reduce the near-term scope of its planned development and operations, which could delay implementation of the Company’s business Plan and harm its business, financial condition and operating results. The balance sheets do not include any adjustments that might result from these uncertainties.

 

Basis of Presentation

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”).

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates. It is reasonably possible that changes in estimates will occur in the near term.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. Applicable accounting guidance provides an established hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions about the factors that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

 

 F-7 

 

 

JET TOKEN, INC.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Level 1 - Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 - Include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.

  

The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The Company does not have any financial instruments as of December 31, 2019.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company has a limited operating history and has not generated revenue from intended operations. The Company's business and operations are sensitive to general business and economic conditions in the U.S. and worldwide along with local, state, and federal governmental policy decisions. A host of factors beyond the Company's control could cause fluctuations in these conditions. Adverse conditions may include but are not limited to: changes in the airline industry, blockchain asset regulations by authorities, fuel and operating costs, changes to corporate governance best practices for executive flying, general demand for private jet travel, market acceptance of the Company’s business model and COVID-19 issues more fully described below. These adverse conditions could affect the Company's financial condition and the results of its operations.

 

On January 30, 2019 the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 coronavirus outbreak a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern” and on March 10, 2020, declared it to be a pandemic. Actions taken around the world to help mitigate the spread of the coronavirus include restrictions on travel, and quarantines in certain areas, and forced closures for certain types of public places and businesses. The COVID-19 coronavirus and actions taken to mitigate it have had and are expected to continue to have an adverse impact on the economies and financial markets of many countries, including the geographical area in which the Company operates. While it is unknown how long these conditions will last and what the complete financial effect will be to the Company, it is known that the travel industry in which we operate has been severely impacted. The Company is monitoring the situation and exploring opportunities in regards to travel behavior for when travel restrictions ease.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purpose of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

Offering Costs

The Company complies with the requirements of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC 340”) with regards to offering costs. Prior to the completion of an offering, offering costs will be capitalized as deferred offering costs on the balance sheet. The deferred offering costs will be charged to stockholders’ deficit upon the completion of an offering or to expense if the offering is not completed

  

Research and Development

We incur research and development costs during the process of researching and developing our technologies and future offerings. Our research and development costs consist primarily of payments for third party software development that is not capitalizable. We expense these costs as incurred until the resulting product has been completed, tested, and made ready for commercial use.

 

Stock Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock options issued to employees under ASC 718 Share-Based Payment. Under ASC 718, share-based compensation cost to employees is measured at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite vesting period. The fair value of each stock option or warrant award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model.

 

 F-8 

 

 

JET TOKEN, INC.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

The Company measures compensation expense for its non-employee stock-based compensation under ASC 505 Equity. The fair value of the option issued or committed to be issued is used to measure the transaction, as this is more reliable than the fair value of the services received. The fair value is measured at the value of the Company’s common stock on the date that the commitment for performance by the counterparty has been reached or the counterparty’s performance is complete. The fair value of the equity instrument is charged directly to stock-based compensation expense and credited to additional paid-in capital.

 

Income Taxes

The Company applies ASC 740 Income Taxes (“ASC 740”).  Deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial statement reported amounts at each period end, based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The provision for income taxes represents the tax expense for the period, if any and the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

 

ASC 740 also provides criteria for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of uncertain tax positions.  A tax benefit from an uncertain position is recognized only if it is “more likely than not” that the position is sustainable upon examination by the relevant taxing authority based on its technical merit.

 

As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company had deferred tax assets of approximately $126,000 and $17,000, respectively, primarily from net operating losses of approximately $601,000 and $82,000. The Company maintains a full valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2019 and 2018. The valuation allowance increased by $92,000 and $17,000 during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Deferred tax assets after 2018 has no expiration.

 

The Company is subject to tax in the United States (“U.S.”) and files tax returns in the U.S. Federal jurisdiction and Nevada state jurisdiction.  The Company is subject to U.S. Federal, state and local income tax examinations by tax authorities for all periods since Inception.  The Company currently is not under examination by any tax authority.

 

Loss per Common Share

 

The Company presents basic loss per share (“EPS”) and diluted EPS on the face of the statements of operations. Basic loss per share is computed as net loss divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. For periods in which we incur a net loss, the effects of potentially dilutive securities would be antidilutive and would be excluded from diluted EPS calculations. For the year ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, there were 5,4000,000 and 0 options, respectively, excluded.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company maintains its cash with a major financial institution located in the United States of America which it believes to be creditworthy.  Balances are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000.  At times, the Company may maintain balances in excess of the federally insured limits.

 

New Accounting Standards

 

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), specifying the accounting for leases, which supersedes the leases requirements in Topic 840, Leases. The objective of Topic 842 is to establish the principles that lessees and lessors shall apply to report useful information to users of financial statements about the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from a lease. Lessees are permitted to make an accounting policy election to not recognize the asset and liability for leases with a term of twelve months or less. Lessors’ accounting is largely unchanged from the previous accounting standard. In addition, Topic 842 expands the disclosure requirements of lease arrangements. Lessees and lessors will use a modified retrospective transition approach, which includes several practical expedients. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company has reviewed the provisions of the new standard, but it is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company.

 

 F-9 

 

 

JET TOKEN, INC.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued guidance that sets forth a current expected credit loss impairment model for financial assets, which replaces the current incurred loss model, and in 2018 and 2019 issued amendments and updates to the new standard. This model requires a financial asset (or group of financial assets), including trade receivables, measured at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected with an allowance for credit losses deducted from the amortized cost basis. The allowance for credit losses should reflect management’s current estimate of credit losses that are expected to occur over the remaining life of a financial asset. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within those annual periods using a modified retrospective transition method. The Company has reviewed the provisions of the new standard, but it is not expected to have any impact on the Company at this time.

 

In December 2019, the FASB issued guidance that simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions in existing guidance and improves consistency in application by clarifying and amending existing guidance. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those annual periods, where the transition method varies depending upon the specific amendment. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period. An entity that elects to early adopt the amendments in an interim period should reflect any adjustments as of the beginning of the annual period that includes that interim period, and all amendments must be adopted in the same period. The Company has reviewed the provisions of the new standard, but it is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company.

 

The FASB issues ASUs to amend the authoritative literature in ASC. There have been several ASUs to date, including those above, that amend the original text of ASC. Management believes that those issued to date either (i) provide supplemental guidance, (ii) are technical corrections, (iii) are not applicable to us or (iv) are not expected to have a significant impact our consolidated financial statements.

 

NOTE 3 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

The Company is currently not involved with or know of any pending or threatening litigation against the Company or any of its officers.

 

NOTE 4 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY / (DEFICIT)

 

Preferred Stock

The Company has authorized the issuance of 50,000,000 shares of its preferred stock with par value of $0.0000001. Of the authorized number of preferred shares, 10,000,000 shares have been designated as Series Seed Preferred Stock, 25,000,000 have been designated Series CF Non-Voting Preferred Stock (“Series CF”), and 15,000,000 are undesignated. Each share of preferred stock can be converted to one share of common stock.

 

During the period ended December 31, 2018, the Company sold 1,799,999 shares of Series Seed Preferred Stock under a private placement for proceeds of $54,000 at $0.03 per share.

 

 F-10 

 

 

JET TOKEN, INC.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

In February 2019, the Company undertook a Regulation Crowdfunding campaign to raise up to $1,070,000 through the issuance of Series CF stock, which was completed during 2019. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company issued 17,826,385 shares of Series CF Non-Voting Preferred Stock under the Regulation Crowdfunding campaign for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,069,583 and a lesser amount of net proceeds pending release of final funds from escrow. As of December 31, 2019, amounts in escrow totaled $58,216.

 

In August 2019, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of Series CF Non-Voting Preferred Stock to a vendor for marketing and advertising services related to the offering. The shares were valued at $60,000 based on the share price being sold in the Regulation Crowdfunding campaign noted above. As this was a cost of the Regulation Crowdfunding Offering, the value both increased and decreased the value shown in the Series CF Non-Voting Preferred Stock account in the accompanying balance sheets for no net effect.

 

Common Stock

Upon Inception, the Company authorized the issuance of 150,000,000 shares of its common stock with par value of $0.0000001. Upon Inception, the Company’s founder received 85,000,000 shares of common stock for $9 of consideration. See Note 6 for amendments to capital stock authorized.

 

On October 8, 2019, the Company amended the articles of articles of incorporation to increase the shares of stock authorized. The Company increased the common stock authorized from 150,000,000 to 500,000,000, of which 300,000,000 are designated as common stock and 200,000,000 are non-voting common stock, all par value of $0.0000001. Shares of Non-voting Common Stock will convert automatically into fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Company’s voting Common Stock upon the closing of the sale of shares of voting Common Stock to the public in a firm commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or upon the merger of the Company with and into another entity. The conversion rate is currently one share of voting common stock per share of Non-voting common stock.

  

Stock Options

On June 4, 2018, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted the Jet Token, Inc. 2018 Stock Option and Grant Plan (the “2018 Plan”).  The 2018 Plan provides for the grant of equity awards to employees, and consultants, to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock.  Up to 5,000,000 shares of its common stock may be issued pursuant to awards granted under the 2018 Plan. The 2018 Plan is administered by the Company’s Board of Directors. In 2019 the number of shares issuable under the 2018 Plan was increased to 15,000,000.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company granted 5,400,000 stock options to purchase common stock pursuant to an employment contract with the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (Note 5). The options have a ten-year life and are exercisable at $0.06. Of the total grant, 2,700,000 stock options had a grant date fair value of approximately $96,000 and vest monthly over three years. The remaining 2,700,000 options are subject to raising funds as described in Note 5. The Company has determined that it is not yet probable that these options will vest and accordingly, have not recorded expense related to these options.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

A summary of our stock option activity for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, is as follows:

 

   Number of Shares   Weighted Average Exercise Price   Weighted average Remaining Contractual Term 
Inception   -   $-    - 
Granted   -    -    - 
Exercised   -    -    - 
Expired/Cancelled   -    -    - 
Outstanding at December 31, 2018   -   $-    - 
Granted   5,400,000    0.06    - 
Exercised   -    -    - 
Expired/Cancelled   -    -    -

Exercisable at December 31, 2018   -   $-    - 
Exercisable at December 31, 2019   225,000   $0.06    9.7 

 

The Company estimates the fair value of stock options that contain service and/or performance conditions using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The range of input assumptions used by the Company were as follows:

 

   December 31,
2019
 
Expected life (years)   6.0 
Risk-free interest rate   1.59%
Expected volatility   65%
Annual dividend yield   0%

 

The Company recognizes stock option forfeitures as they occur as there is insufficient historical data to accurately determine future forfeitures rates.

 

The risk-free interest rate assumption for options granted is based upon observed interest rates on the United States government securities appropriate for the expected term of the Company’s stock options.

 

The expected term of stock options is calculated using the simplified method which takes into consideration the contractual life and vesting terms of the options.

 

The Company determined the expected volatility assumption for options granted using the historical volatility of comparable public company’s common stock. The Company will continue to monitor peer companies and other relevant factors used to measure expected volatility for future stock option grants, until such time that the Company’s common stock has enough market history to use historical volatility.

 

The dividend yield assumption for options granted is based on the Company’s history and expectation of dividend payouts. The Company has never declared or paid any cash dividends on its common stock, and the Company does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

JET TOKEN, INC.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

 

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

Jet Token Inc. was formed on June 4, 2018 (“Inception”) in the State of Delaware.  The financial statements of Jet Token Inc. (the “Company”) are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The Company is headquartered in Nevada.

 

The Company intends to combine concepts from fractional jet membership programs with lessons learned from building blockchain currencies. The Company believes the tokenization of flight hours and (as the enterprise matures) fractional membership programs offers the possibility of reduced transaction costs and, through the evolution of a marketplace, higher industry fleet utilization. The Company’s purposeful enhancement of price discovery and reduced entry price have the potential to produce fairer and more inclusive results for aircraft owners and travelers alike.

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). Certain information and disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of these unaudited interim financial statements have been included. Such adjustments consist of normal recurring adjustments. These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2019. The results of operations for the six-months ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates. It is reasonably possible that changes in estimates will occur in the near term.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. Applicable accounting guidance provides an established hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions about the factors that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

 

Level 1 - Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 - Include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.

 

F-20

 

 

JET TOKEN, INC.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

 

The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The Company does not have any financial instruments as of June 30, 2020.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company has a limited operating history and has not generated revenue from intended operations. The Company's business and operations are sensitive to general business and economic conditions in the U.S. and worldwide along with local, state, and federal governmental policy decisions. A host of factors beyond the Company's control could cause fluctuations in these conditions. Adverse conditions may include but are not limited to: changes in the airline industry, blockchain asset regulations by authorities, fuel and operating costs, changes to corporate governance best practices for executive flying, general demand for private jet travel, market acceptance of the Company’s business model and COVID-19 issues more fully described below. These adverse conditions could affect the Company's financial condition and the results of its operations.

 

On January 30, 2019, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 coronavirus outbreak a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern” and on March 10, 2020, declared it to be a pandemic. Actions taken around the world to help mitigate the spread of the coronavirus include restrictions on travel, and quarantines in certain areas, and forced closures for certain types of public places and businesses. The COVID-19 coronavirus and actions taken to mitigate it have had and are expected to continue to have an adverse impact on the economies and financial markets of many countries, including the geographical area in which the Company operates. While it is unknown how long these conditions will last and what the complete financial effect will be to the Company, it is known that the travel industry in which we operate has been severely impacted. The Company is monitoring the situation and exploring opportunities in regards to travel behavior for when travel restrictions ease.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purpose of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

Offering Costs

The Company complies with the requirements of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC 340”) with regards to offering costs. Prior to the completion of an offering, offering costs will be capitalized as deferred offering costs on the balance sheet. The deferred offering costs will be charged to stockholders’ equity upon the completion of an offering or to expense if the offering is not completed

 

Internal Use Software

The Company incurs software development costs to develop software programs to be used solely to meet its internal needs and cloud-based applications used to deliver its services. In accordance with ASC 350-40, Internal-Use Software, the Company capitalizes development costs related to these software applications once a preliminary project stage is complete, funding has been committed, and it is probable that the project will be completed, and the software will be used to perform the function intended. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company has capitalized $33,000 and $0, respectively, of internal software related costs, which is included in intangible assets in the accompanying balance sheets. Amortization will begin once the software has been placed into service.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock awards under ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. Under ASC 718, share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite vesting period and over the nonemployee’s period of providing goods or services. The fair value of each stock option or warrant award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model.

 

Loss per Common Share

The Company presents basic loss per share (“EPS”) and diluted EPS on the face of the statements of operations. Basic loss per share is computed as net loss divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. For periods in which we incur a net loss, the effects of potentially dilutive securities would be antidilutive and would be excluded from diluted EPS calculations. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, there were 13,400,000 options and 20,626,384 convertible preferred shares excluded. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, there were 5,582,658 convertible preferred shares excluded.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company maintains its cash with a major financial institution located in the United States of America which it believes to be creditworthy.  Balances are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000.  At times, the Company may maintain balances in excess of the federally insured limits.

 

New Accounting Standards

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), specifying the accounting for leases, which supersedes the leases requirements in Topic 840, Leases. The objective of Topic 842 is to establish the principles that lessees and lessors shall apply to report useful information to users of financial statements about the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from a lease. Lessees are permitted to make an accounting policy election to not recognize the asset and liability for leases with a term of twelve months or less. Lessors’ accounting is largely unchanged from the previous accounting standard. In addition, Topic 842 expands the disclosure requirements of lease arrangements. Lessees and lessors will use a modified retrospective transition approach, which includes several practical expedients. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted. The Company has reviewed the provisions of the new standard, but it is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company.

 

In December 2019, the FASB issued guidance that simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions in existing guidance and improves consistency in application by clarifying and amending existing guidance. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those annual periods, where the transition method varies depending upon the specific amendment. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period. An entity that elects to early adopt the amendments in an interim period should reflect any adjustments as of the beginning of the annual period that includes that interim period, and all amendments must be adopted in the same period. The Company has reviewed the provisions of the new standard, but it is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company.

 

The FASB issues ASUs to amend the authoritative literature in ASC. There have been several ASUs to date, including those above, that amend the original text of ASC. Management believes that those issued to date either (i) provide supplemental guidance, (ii) are technical corrections, (iii) are not applicable to us or (iv) are not expected to have a significant impact our consolidated financial statements.

 

NOTE 3 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

The Company is currently not involved with or know of any pending or threatening litigation against the Company or any of its officers.

NOTE 4 – NOTE PAYABLE

 

In May 2020, the Company received a loan in the amount of $121,000 pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act.  Subject to the terms of the Note, the PPP Loan bears interest at a fixed rate of one percent (1%) per annum, with the first six months of interest and principal payments deferred, has an initial term of two years, and is unsecured and guaranteed by the Small Business Administration. The Company may apply to the Lender for forgiveness of the PPP Loan, with the amount which may be forgiven equal to the sum of payroll costs, covered rent, and covered utility payments incurred by the Company during the 24-week period beginning on April 13, 2020, calculated in accordance with the terms of the CARES Act. The Note provides for customary events of default including, among other things, cross-defaults on any other loan with the Lender. The PPP Loan may be accelerated upon the occurrence of an event of default.  The PPP loan proceeds were used for payroll, covered rent and other covered payments and is expected to be forgiven based on current information available.

 

NOTE 5 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

Preferred Stock

The Company has authorized the issuance of 50,000,000 shares of its preferred stock with par value of $0.0000001. Of the authorized number of preferred shares, 10,000,000 shares have been designated as Series Seed Preferred Stock, 25,000,000 have been designated Series CF Non-voting Preferred Stock (“Series CF”), and 15,000,000 are undesignated. Each share of preferred stock can be converted to one share of common stock.

 

In February 2019, the Company undertook a Regulation Crowdfunding campaign to raise up to $1,070,000 through the issuance of Series CF stock, which was completed during 2019. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company issued 17,826,385 shares of Series CF Non-Voting Preferred Stock under the Regulation Crowdfunding campaign for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,069,583 and a lesser amount of net proceeds pending release of final funds from escrow. As of December 31, 2019, amounts in escrow totaled $58,216. This was received during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

 

Common Stock

Upon Inception, the Company authorized the issuance of 150,000,000 shares of its common stock with par value of $0.0000001.

 

On October 8, 2019, the Company amended the articles of articles of incorporation to increase the shares of stock authorized. The Company increased the common stock authorized from 150,000,000 to 500,000,000, of which 300,000,000 are designated as common stock and 200,000,000 are non-voting common stock, all par value of $0.0000001. Shares of Non-voting Common Stock will convert automatically into fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Company’s voting Common Stock upon the closing of the sale of shares of voting Common Stock to the public in a firm commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or upon the merger of the Company with and into another entity. The conversion rate is currently one share of voting common stock per share of Non-voting common stock.

 

In February 2020, the Company undertook a Regulation A, Tier 2 offering for which it is selling up to 33,333,333 non-voting common stock at $0.30 per share for a maximum of $10,000,000. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company issued 10,427,303 shares of non-voting common stock under the Regulation A, Tier 2 campaign for aggregate gross proceeds of $3,128,191, with $188,532 of these proceeds pending release from escrow. In connection with the offering the Company agreed StartEngine Primary, LLC (“StartEngine”) to act as its placement agent. For such, StartEngine will receive 7% commissions on proceeds from the offering and the Company will issue warrants to StartEngine up to 5% of the non-voting common stock sold through StartEngine at an exercise price of $0.30 per share. As of June 30, 2020, these warrants had not yet been issued. However, the Company estimates that a total of 521,365 warrants are owed based on the gross proceeds raised through June 30, 2020.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

 

The warrants will have an exercise price of $0.30 and a term of ten years. The warrants allow for adjustments to the exercise price and number of shares based on future stock dividends, stock splits, and subsequent non-exempt equity sales. The Company accounts for these warrants in accordance with ASU 2017-11, which changes the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) with down round features. Accordingly, the value of these warrants is contained within equity, both increasing and decreasing additional paid-in capital for a net zero effect. The Company valued the warrants earned during the six months ended June 30, 2020 at approximately $97,000, using the Black-Scholes model, with similar inputs to those disclosed in the stock option section above, with the exception that the expected life was 10 years.

 

Stock Options

On June 4, 2018, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted the Jet Token, Inc. 2018 Stock Option and Grant Plan (the “2018 Plan”).  The 2018 Plan provides for the grant of equity awards to employees, and consultants, to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock and is administered by the Company’s Board of Directors.  Up to 15,000,000 shares of its common stock may be issued pursuant to awards granted under the 2018 Plan.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company granted 5,400,000 stock options to purchase common stock pursuant to an employment contract with the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (Note 5). The options have a ten-year life and are exercisable at $0.06. Of the total grant, 2,700,000 stock options had a grant date fair value of approximately $96,000 and vest monthly over three years. The remaining 2,700,000 options are subject to raising funds as described in Note 6. As a result of the Regulation A, Tier 2 offering that began in 2020 as discussed above, the Company has determined that it is now probable that these options will vest by the end of the year, and accordingly, recorded expense related to these options beginning in March 2020.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company granted a total of 8,000,000 stock options to purchase common stock to four Advisory Board Members pursuant to their agreements. The options have a ten-year life and are exercisable at $0.30. The options vest in monthly tranches through December 31, 2022. The options had a grant date fair value of approximately $1,210,000, which will be recognized over the vesting period.

 

The Company estimates the fair value of stock options that contain service and/or performance conditions using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The range of input assumptions used by the Company were as follows:

 

   June 30, 2020   December 31, 2019 
Expected life (years)   6    6 
Risk-free interest rate   0.31%   1.59%
Expected volatility   55%   65%
Annual dividend yield   0%   0%

 

The Company recognizes stock option forfeitures as they occur as there is insufficient historical data to accurately determine future forfeitures rates.

 

F-24

 

 

JET TOKEN, INC.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

 

The risk-free interest rate assumption for options granted is based upon observed interest rates on the United States government securities appropriate for the expected term of the Company’s stock options.

 

The expected term of stock options is calculated using the simplified method which takes into consideration the contractual life and vesting terms of the options.

 

The Company determined the expected volatility assumption for options granted using the historical volatility of comparable public company’s common stock. The Company will continue to monitor peer companies and other relevant factors used to measure expected volatility for future stock option grants, until such time that the Company’s common stock has enough market history to use historical volatility.

 

The dividend yield assumption for options granted is based on the Company’s history and expectation of dividend payouts. The Company has never declared or paid any cash dividends on its common stock, and the Company does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, stock-based compensation expense of $89,152 and $0, respectively, was recognized for the vesting of these options. As of June 30, 2020, there was approximately $1,304,000 in unrecognized stock-based compensation, which will be recognized through December 31, 2022.

 

NOTE 6 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

In October 2018, the Company entered into an agreement with Sutton View Advisors LLC, and entity owned and operated by the Company’s founder. The agreement is for financial advisory, financial advisory services as specified in the agreement. The agreement calls for $2,700 upon signing the agreement, $10,000 per quarter as a retainer fee on professional services, and expense reimbursement not to exceed certain limits. The agreement terminated effective December 31, 2019. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company has paid Sutton View Advisors LLC $0 and $20,000, respectively.

 

In July 2019, the Company entered into an employment offer letter with its Chief Executive Officer with an effective start date in September 2019. Included in the employment offer letter was 2,700,000 options to purchase common stock at $0.06 per share. The options vest monthly over three years. The offer included an additional 2,700,000 options to purchase common stock at $0.06 per share, contingent on the Company undertaking a qualified offering which results in proceeds of at least $10,000,000. See Note 5 for option related disclosures.

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, $515 and $0 was due to a related party related to such advances.

 

NOTE 7 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

In July 2020, the Company redeemed 816,666 shares of its outstanding Series Seed Preferred Stock for a total purchase price of approximately $245,000.

 

Subsequent to June 30, 2020, the Company issued an additional 4,871,137 shares of non-voting common stock at a price of $0.30 per share under the Regulation A, Tier 2 offering discussed in Note 5 for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,461,341.
