Liquidity
The Company ended the quarter with $5.1 million in current assets, an increase of $2 million compared to December 31, 2022. The increase is mainly due to the increase in cash balance.
Current liabilities increased from $8.2 million at December 31, 2022 to $13.1 million, mainly due to an increase of $0.8 million in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. In addition, there is a $4 million increase in deferred revenue for cash collected in terms of future flying.
Based on the Company’s working capital position, the Company will need to raise additional capital to support its business plan. The Company is seeking additional capital in the form of debt, convertible debt or equity in order to further invest in the business and facilitate the continued growth of the fleet, including the acquisition of additional leased aircraft, as well as additional working capital.
