AIR INDUSTRIES GROUP
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. FORMATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Organization
Air Industries Group is a Nevada corporation (“AIRI”). As
of and for the three months ending March 31, 2022 and 2021, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements presented are
those of AIRI, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries; Air Industries Machining Corp. (“AIM”), Nassau Tool Works, Inc. (“NTW”),
and the Sterling Engineering Corporation (“Sterling”), (together, the “Company”).
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and with Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March
31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022. These unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included
in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission,
from which the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet dated December 31, 2021 was derived.
Effective with the Company’s first quarter
ended March 31, 2022, the Company is presenting its operations as one reportable operating segment. See Note 10 for further information.
Historically the Company operated its businesses and
reported its results as two separate segments with AIM and NTW comprising the Complex Machining segment (“CMS”) and SEC as
the Turbine & Engine Component segment (“TEC”). Our CMS segment specialized in flight critical components including flight
controls and landing gear. The TEC segment focused on manufacturing components for jet engines. Along with its operating subsidiaries,
the Company reported the results of its corporate division as an independent segment.
In recent years the Company integrated and consolidated
the business of AIM and NTW into one facility on Long Island and the operations of its CMS and TEC segments have become increasingly integrated.
The Company also made significant capital expenditures and all of its operations now share the same manufacturing facilities and use most,
if not all, of the same sales and marketing functions. The Company made these changes to take advantage of the long-term growth opportunities
we see in the aerospace and defense market. In early fiscal 2022, the Company further changed its management approach and is now making
decisions about resources to be allocated and assesses performance based on one integrated business rather than two reporting segments.
As such, effective with the first quarter ended March 31, 2022, the Company is presenting its operations as one reportable operating segment.
Subsequent Events
Management has evaluated subsequent events through
the date of this filing.

Note 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Inventory Valuation
For annual periods, the Company values inventory
at the lower of cost on a first-in-first-out basis or estimated net realizable value. The Company does not take physical inventories at
interim quarterly reporting periods. For interim periods, substantially all of the inventory value has been estimated using a gross profit
percentage based on the annual gross profit percentage of the immediately preceding year as applied to the net sales of the current period.
Adjustments to reconcile the annual physical inventory to the Company’s books are recorded in the fourth quarter.
Credit and Concentration Risks
There were three customers that represented 70.8 %
and 77.9 % of total net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. This is set forth in the table below.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
During the period, the Company had occasionally maintained balances
in its bank accounts that were in excess of the FDIC limit. The Company has not experienced any losses on these accounts.
Major Suppliers
The Company has several key sole-source suppliers
of various parts that are important for one or more of its products. These suppliers are its only source for such parts and, therefore,
in the event any of them were to go out of business or be unable to provide parts for any reason, its business could be severely harmed.
Leases
The Company accounts for leases under ASC 842,
“Leases.” All leases are required to be recorded on the balance sheet and are classified as either operating leases or finance
leases. The lease classification affects the expense recognition in the income statement. Operating lease charges are recorded entirely
in operating expenses. Finance lease charges are split, where amortization of the right-of- use asset is recorded in operating expenses
and an implied interest component is recorded in interest expense. See Note 4.
8
Earnings (Loss) per share
Basic earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”)
is computed by dividing the net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock
outstanding for the period.
For purposes of calculating diluted earnings per
common share, the numerator includes net income plus interest on convertible notes payable assumed converted as of the first day of the
period. The denominator includes both the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period and the number
of common stock equivalents if the inclusion of such common stock equivalents is dilutive. Dilutive common stock equivalents potentially
include stock options and warrants using the treasury stock method and convertible notes payable using the if-converted method.
The following securities have been excluded from
the calculation as the exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common stock:

The following securities have been excluded from
the calculation even though the exercise price was less than the average market price of the common shares because the effect of including
these potential shares was anti-dilutive due to the net loss incurred during that period:

Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation
in accordance with FASB ASC 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation.” Under the fair value recognition provision of
the ASC, stock-based compensation cost is estimated at the grant date based on the fair value of the award. The Company estimates the
fair value of stock options and warrants granted using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. Stock based compensation expense
for employees amounted to $ 66,000 and $ 157,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Stock compensation expense
for directors amounted to $ 54,000 and $ 52,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Stock compensation expenses
for employees and directors were included in operating expenses on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the acquisition
cost of businesses over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. The goodwill amount of $ 163,000 at both March 31, 2022
and December 31, 2021 relates to the acquisition of NTW.
9
Goodwill is not amortized, but is tested at least
annually for impairment, or if circumstances occur that more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying
amount.
The Company has determined that there has been
no impairment of goodwill at March 31, 2022 and 2021.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Effective January 1, 2022, the Company adopted
ASU No. 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in
Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) (“ASU 2020-06), which is intended to address issues identified as a result of the complexity
associated with applying GAAP for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. For convertible instruments,
ASU 2020-06 reduces the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock, and enhances information
transparency by making targeted improvements to the disclosures for convertible instruments and earnings-per-share guidance on the basis
of feedback from financial statement users. The adoption of ASU 2020-06 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial
statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial
Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326) (“ASU 2016-13”), which significantly changes how entities will account for credit
losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. ASU 2016-13 replaces
the existing incurred loss model with an expected credit loss model that requires entities to estimate an expected lifetime credit loss
on most financial assets and certain other instruments. Under ASU 2016-13 credit impairment is recognized as an allowance for credit losses,
rather than as a direct write-down of the amortized cost basis of a financial asset. The impairment allowance is a valuation account deducted
from the amortized cost basis of financial assets to present the net amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. Once the
new pronouncement is adopted by the Company, the allowance for credit losses must be adjusted for management’s current estimate
at each reporting date. The new guidance provides no threshold for recognition of impairment allowance. Therefore, entities must also
measure expected credit losses on assets that have a low risk of loss. For instance, trade receivables that are either current or not
yet due may not require an allowance reserve under currently generally accepted accounting principles, but under the new standard, the
Company will have to estimate an allowance for expected credit losses on trade receivables under ASU 2016-13. ASU 2016-13 is effective
for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2022 for smaller reporting companies.
Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact ASU 2016-13 will have on its consolidated financial statements.
The Company does not believe that any other recently
issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying condensed consolidated
financial statements.

to the Loan and Security Agreement which increased the Term Loan to $5,685,000 and required the Company to make monthly principal installments
in the amount of $67,679 beginning on December 1, 2020. Other minor modifications were made and the Company paid an amendment fee of $20,000.

In June 2021, the Company entered into the Second
Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement, which clarified the definition and calculation of Excess Cash Flow, and to confirm the due
date of required payment of the Excess Cash Flow payment. For so long as the Webster term loan remains outstanding, if Excess Cash Flow
(as defined) is a positive number for any fiscal year the Company shall pay to Webster an amount equal to the lesser of (i) twenty-five
percent (25%) of the Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year and (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the term loan. Such payment shall
be made to Webster and applied to the outstanding principal balance of the term loan, on or prior to the close of the fiscal year immediately
following such fiscal year. The Company made Excess Cash Flow payments of $558,750 in 2021 (for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020)
and paid $854,000 in April 2022 (for fiscal year ended December 31, 2021). In connection with these changes, the Company paid an amendment
fee of $10,000.
On December 7, 2021, the Company entered into the
Third Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement (“Third Amendment”). The purpose of the amendment was to provide a maturity
date for the Webster Facility of December 30, 2025 as compared to the original maturity date of December 30, 2022. Such amendment also
increased the Revolving Line of Credit to its current limit of $20,000,000 (up from the original $16,000,000) and also provided for a
similar increase in the inventory sublimit to $14,000,000 (up from the original $11,000,000). The Third Amendment, also allows the Company,
subject to certain limitations, to begin amortizing a portion of its subordinated debt. In connection with these changes, the Company
paid an amendment fee of $75,000.
Under the terms of the Webster Facility, both
the Webster revolving line of credit and the Webster term loan will bear an interest rate equal to the greater of (i) 3.50% and (ii) a
rate per annum equal to the rate per annum published from time to time in the “Money Rates” table of the Wall Street Journal
(or such other presentation within The Wall Street Journal as may be adopted hereafter for such information) as the base or prime rate
for corporate loans at the nation’s largest commercial bank, less sixty-five hundredths (-0.65%) of one percent per annum. The average
interest rate charged during both of the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was 3.5%.
All amendment fees paid in connection with the Webster Facility are
included in Deferred Financing Costs, Net, Deposits and Other Assets, in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and are
amortized over the term of the loan.
In connection with the Webster Facility, the Company
is required to maintain a defined Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.25 to 1.00 at the end of each Fiscal Quarter. The Webster Facility
limits the amount of Capital Expenditures and dividends the Company can pay to its stockholders. Substantially all of the Company’s
assets are pledged as collateral under the Webster Facility.

Right”). To the extent the Purchasers exercise their Put Right, the remaining payments from Meyer will be retained by the Company.

a leased property not occupied by the Company. As certain of these claims represent amounts included in accounts payable they are not
specifically discussed herein.
On October 2, 2018, Contract Pharmacal Corp. (“Contract
Pharmacal”) commenced an action, relating to a Sublease entered into between the Company and Contract Pharmacal in May 2018 with
respect to the property that was formerly occupied by its subsidiary WMI, at 110 Plant Avenue, Hauppauge, New York. In the action Contract
Pharmacal sought damages for an amount in excess of $ 1,000,000 for the Company’s failure to make the entire premises available by
the Sublease commencement date. On July 8, 2021, the Court denied Contract Phamacal’s motion for summary judgement. In the Order,
the court granted Contract Pharmacal’s Motions to drop its claim for specific performance and to amend its Complaint to reduce its
claim for damages to $ 700,000 . Contract Pharmacal filed a Motion to reargue which the Court denied on November 30, 2021. On March 10,
2022, Contract Pharmacal filed an appeal to the Court’s decision with the Appellate Division which the Company will oppose. The
Company disputes the validity of the claims asserted by Contract Pharmacal, continues to believe it has a meritorious defense to those
claims and intends to dispute the validity of the claim asserted by Contract Pharmacal.
Note 9. INCOME TAXES
The Company recorded no income tax expense for
the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 because the estimated annual effective tax rate was zero . In determining the estimated
annual effective income tax rate, the Company analyzes various factors, including projections of the Company’s annual earnings and
taxing jurisdictions in which the earnings will be generated, the impact of state and local income taxes, the ability to use tax credits
and net operating loss carry forwards, and available tax planning alternatives.
As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the
Company provided a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets since the Company believes it is more likely than not
that its deferred tax assets will not be realized.
