In connection with management’s evaluation of the Company’s

internal control over financial reporting described above, management has identified the deficiencies described below that constitute

a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020.

Material Weaknesses

connection with management’s evaluation of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting described above,

management identified the deficiencies described below that constituted material weaknesses in our internal control over financial

reporting as of December 31, 2021.

These deficiencies led to material errors in our previously issued consolidated financial statements

for the annual periods ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 and the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2020, June 30,

2020 and September 30, 2020, respectively, which in turn led to the restatement of those previously issued consolidated financial

statements, as described in Part II, Item 8, Note 16 “Restatement of Previously Issued Consolidated Financial Statements”

in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Environment, Risk Assessment, Control Activities and Monitoring

We did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting

related to control environment, risk assessment, control activities and monitoring:

● There were insufficiently documented Company accounting policies and insufficiently detailed Company procedures to put policies

into effective action.

● The design and implementation of internal controls related to cut-off

procedures were not sufficient to ensure proper accounting for in-transit items.

● The design and implementation of internal controls related to preparation

and review of financial statement disclosures were not sufficient to ensure the completeness and accuracy of required disclosures.

Q1 2021, we identified material weaknesses from the month end closing process and INFORXA module used by the Company to maintain

the perpetual inventory reporting.

The following issues were identified:

design and implementation of internal controls related to monitoring and review of inventory

costing were not sufficient to ensure proper valuation of appropriately stated inventory

costs, as detailed below.

design and implementation of internal controls related to preparation and review of financial

statement disclosures were not sufficient to ensure the completeness and accuracy of

required disclosures:

(2) Accounting

for Inventory & related IT environment

which resulted in the need to restate the 2020 Financial Statements of CPI:

Labor and Overhead:

The INFORXA module did not work as intended to prevent labor

applied to inventory from being just the amount of labor incurred and it did not include

any control or reporting to detect that a reversing transaction in the coding was not

occurring, which resulted in duplicate labor applied to inventory.

The Company did not

have a control in place to adequately review and approve the reasonableness of the entries

posted to the general ledger to record differences in cost of goods sold for the differences

between general ledger inventory and perpetual inventory.

As part of the Q1 2021 closing process, we identified that that the perpetual

inventory included some unit of measure errors which were not detected and corrected

within the 2020 general ledger.

Units of Measure (“UM”) were not consistent

between quantities ordered and quantities received for certain classes of purchased parts.

This resulted in overstatements of inventory values due to UM’s not being consistent

with unit prices on purchase orders to suppliers.

Errors occurred when the need for corrections

to unit costs went undetected until a subsequent quarter as a result of (a) only having

a detective control in place to scan for apparent UM issues that stand out when our accounting

department reviews the month-end perpetual inventory reports, and (b) not having a comprehensive

enough list of the commodity codes in the UM conversion tables within the INFORXA module.

The pre-implementation testing that was performed in the test environment on

an INFORXA Software Patch that was written and went live into the system in July 2020

did not detect that the system as patched would erroneously omit the reset of one field

used by the system in calculating the average cost per unit correctly, thus causing the

live system as patched to perform incorrect average cost calculations on some parts.

The monthly journal entry log used to manage the month end close process

did not contain the requirement to determine and post a month end QC01 (inventory received

in-house awaiting quality inspection) inventory accrual.

An automated accrual for goods

received, not yet in inventory does not occur until after the parts have passed QC.

the parts pass QC, they are in the warehouse location “QC01”.

the company needs to record an accrual to increase its purchases of inventory for those

goods in QC01 at each balance sheet date since there is no automated accrual by Infor.

of under-absorbed overhead in the balance sheet:

The monthly journal entry log used

to manage the month end close process did not contain the requirement to determine and

post a full absorption adjustment (under/over absorbed overhead deferral into inventory).

As such, the company did not have a process to record over or under absorbed overhead

at the end of each quarter.

which resulted in the need to restate the 2019 Financial Statements of CPI:

Contract Reserve for Contracts where Revenue and Costs are Recognized on a Point-in-Time

Basis (“Non-POC Contracts”):

There was no evaluation of Non-POC Contracts

to determine if a loss reserve should be established and maintained for Non-POC Contracts

which management has reason to believe may result in losses.

and Obsolete Inventory Reserve:

There was no process for evaluating and recording

reserves against inventory for excess and obsolete inventory.

Status of Previously Reported 2020 Material Weakness

connection with management’s evaluation of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting described above,

management has concluded that some, but not all, of the material weaknesses reported in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the

year ended December 31, 2020 have been remediated and that some, but not all, internal controls put in place to prevent future

occurrences of these material weaknesses were effective as of December 31, 2021.

we continue to evaluate and work to improve our internal control over financial reporting, we may take additional measures to

further the overall objective to design and operate internal controls that mitigate identified risks and enable an effective system

of internal control over external financial reporting.

is a non-accelerated filer for 2021.

As such, CPI is not subject to the requirement to have an auditor attestation report on internal

control over financial reporting in the 10-K filed in 2022 for 2021.

Accordingly, based upon its internal testing, management

believes that as of December 31, 2021, it has not successfully remediated all of the internal control weaknesses which gave rise

to the material errors as disclosed in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 as follows:

Environment, Risk Assessment, Control Activities and Monitoring

Remediated as of December 31, 2021

design and implementation of internal controls related to monitoring and review of inventory

costing were not sufficient to ensure proper valuation of appropriately stated inventory

2021, the Company Diagnosed, designed, tested and implemented software changes to its perpetual inventory system to improve management’s

ability to properly value stated inventory costs.

During 2022, the Company continues to improve its internal controls related

to monitoring and review of inventory costing.

design and implementation of internal controls related to preparation and review of financial

statement disclosures were not sufficient to ensure the completeness and accuracy of

required disclosures:

2021, the Company recruited and hired a new Chief Financial Officer, a new Controller, and several new financial team members,

and implemented additional review and control procedures over the financial close and financial reporting processes of the Company.

During 2022, the Company continues to improve its internal controls over the preparation and review of financial statement disclosures.

as of December 31, 2021

were insufficiently documented Company accounting policies and insufficiently detailed

Company procedures to put policies into effective action:

2021, management updated the Accounting Policies and Procedures Manual.

design and implementation of internal controls related to cut-off procedures were not

sufficient to ensure proper accounting for in-transit items:

2021, the Company implemented a newly designed month-end accrual for in-transit inventory.

design and implementation of internal controls related to the establishment, and monitoring

and review, of loss contract and excess and obsolete reserves were not sufficient to

ensure proper accounting for the associated reserves:

2021, the Company implemented new accounting procedures to ensure reserves are established and maintained for anticipated contract

losses, reductions in the market values of inventory below cost, and excess or obsolete inventory.

information technology general controls associated with proper change management were

not sufficient to ensure the accuracy and adequacy of the resulting changes:

2021, the Company implemented a policy over IT Change Management.

described above, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and

Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules

13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of December 31, 2021.

Notwithstanding

on such dates, in conformity with U.S.

of Previously Reported Material Weakness

connection with management’s evaluation of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting described above,

management has concluded that the material weaknesses reported in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December

31, 2019 had been remediated and that internal controls put in place to prevent future occurrences of these material weaknesses

were effective as of December 31, 2020.

the course of 2020, we have implemented measures to remediate the underlying causes that gave rise to the previously disclosed

material weaknesses and material errors.

These measures include the Welding Metallurgy operations as they were incorporated into

CPI’s operations as of December 31, 2019.

As we continue to evaluate and work to improve our internal control over financial

reporting, we may take additional measures to further the overall objective to design and operate internal controls that mitigate

identified risks and enable an effective system of internal control over external financial reporting.

is a non-accelerated filer for 2020.

As such, CPI is not subject to the requirement to have an auditor attestation

report on internal control over financial reporting in the 10-K filed in 2021 for 2020.

Accordingly, based upon its internal testing

which is performed by a national public accounting and advisory firm, EisnerAmper LLP, management believes that as of December

31, 2020, it has successfully remediated the internal control weaknesses which gave rise to the material errors in our prior financial

Revenue Recognition Accounting:

During 2020, Management, with advice from a

leading global accounting and advisory firm, reviewed and updated its revenue recognition policies to be compliant with ASC

In addition, the Company has updated its procedures and implemented new controls to remediate the identified weakness

and to prevent the material error which occurred in prior periods with regards to revenue recognition wherein revenue and

associated estimated margins were not constrained to firm orders received.

Current procedures and controls now reconcile EAC

revenue with firm funded purchase orders received from customers, which constrains revenue to firm funded orders as required

by ASC Topic 606.

Standardized templates have been developed to assist the evaluation process, based upon the overall updated

policies and procedures including daily decision guidelines.

Testing has shown that the previously identified Revenue Recognition

material weakness has been remediated.

Accounting for Significant Non-Routine Complex

Transactions:

The Company has established a policy with regards

to accounting for significant, non-routine, complex transactions which states that prior to any future requirement for accounting

for significant, non-routine, complex transactions, the Company will engage experienced professionals and outline and execute

a set of controls unique to each transaction to ensure that the non-routine complex transaction is recorded in a proper manner.

In 2020 there were no non-routine complex transactions but the Company believes the controls and procedures implemented will

allow for proper identification and accounting for those transaction.

Information Technology General Controls (ITGC):

For years subsequent to 2019, the Company has

implemented an improved 404 compliant ITGC testing program.

The Company has identified relevant ITGCs for key financial systems

relating to Change Management, Logical Security, Physical Security, and Computer Operations.

We have engaged EisnerAmper LLP

to test the design, implementation and operating effectiveness of the controls.

Testing has shown that the previously identified

ITGC material weakness has been remediated.

As such, the Company was not subject to the requirement to have an auditor attestation

report on internal control over financial reporting in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31,

on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter

how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management

is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Our board of directors has determined that each of Messrs.

Caswell and Faber, members of our Audit and Finance

Committee, meet the criteria of an “Audit Committee Financial Expert” under applicable SEC rules.

This permits our principal executive officer to concentrate his efforts primarily on managing the Company’s business operations

and development.

This also allows us to maintain an independent chairman of the board who oversees, among other things, communications

and relations between our board of directors and senior management, consideration by our board of directors of the Company’s

strategies and policies, and the evaluation of our principal executive officers by our board of directors.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

executive compensation program is designed to attract, retain, and motivate highly qualified executive officers in the competitive

aerospace and defense industry.

Additionally, a substantial portion of total compensation of our Named Executive Officers is variable

and delivers rewards based on Company and individual performance.

Company performance is measured against metrics established

by the Compensation and Human Resources Committee each year.

Such metrics typically focus on the achievement of financial targets

such as revenue and free cash flow, to align our executives’ pay with the Company’s financial results and the creation

of shareholder value.

Individual performance is measured against each individual’s contributions to the Company’s

overall success.

As in prior years, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee continued to engage the services of Talent

& Rewards LLC, an independent compensation consulting firm in 2021 to provide advice and guidance in evaluating and adjusting

the compensation of our Named Executive Officers.

are three major components to our compensation program for our Named Executive Officers:

Salary - fixed compensation, designed to recognize responsibilities, experience, and

Cash Incentives - annual cash incentive, as a percentage of base salary, paid upon the

achievement of Company performance goals set by the Compensation and Human Resources

This variable at-risk compensation motivates and rewards executives with respect

to short-term performance.

Equity Incentives - annual grants of restricted stock, 50% of which is subject to time-based

vesting, and 50% of which vests upon the achievement of Company financial performative-metric

thresholds set by our Compensation and Human Resources Committee.

This variable at-risk

compensation aligns executive interests with long-term shareholder value creation.

who are employees of the Company do not receive separate compensation for their service as a director.

Our non-executive directors

receive a mix of cash compensation and stock compensation for their service to our Company.

Each year, our Compensation and Human

Resources Committee determines the total amount of non-executive director compensation, as well as the allocation among cash and

stock compensation, and takes into consideration, among other things, the Company’s performance relative to its guidance,

the extent to which director compensation aligns the interests of our directors with the interests of our shareholders, compensation

awarded to directors of similarly sized companies in our industry, and past practices.

Our Compensation and Human Resources Committee

is also tasked with reviewing the annual compensation paid to non-executive directors and making recommendations to our board

of directors for any adjustments deemed necessary as a result of their review.

In December 2018, our board of directors determined

that the following structure would properly incentivize non-executive directors and adequately recognize the additional work performed

by board committee chairs:

Chairman of the Board, $200,000;

Chair of each of the Audit and Finance Committee and Strategic Planning

Committee, $140,000 each;

Chair of the Compensation and Human Resources Committee, $125,000;

Chair of the Nominating and Corporate

Governance Committee, $120,000;

and all other non-executive directors, $100,000 each.

The Chair of the Oversight Committee is

paid $96,000 in cash for such role.

In August 2020, our board of directors created a new position of Non-Executive Vice Chairperson

of the Board and set the compensation for such role at $165,000.

RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

Related-Party

Code of Ethics requires us to avoid, wherever possible, all related-party transactions that could result in actual or potential

conflicts of interest, except under guidelines approved by our board of directors (or our Audit and Finance Committee).

generally define related-party transactions as transactions in which (1) the aggregate amount involved will or may be expected

to exceed $120,000 in any calendar year, (2) we or any of our subsidiaries is a participant, and (3) any (a) executive officer,

director or nominee for election as a director, (b) greater than 5% beneficial owner of our common stock, or (c) immediate family

member of the persons referred to in clauses (a) and (b), has or will have a direct or indirect material interest (other than

solely as a result of being a director or a less than 10% beneficial owner of another entity).

A conflict of interest situation

can arise when a person takes actions or has interests that may make it difficult to perform his or her work objectively and effectively.

Conflicts of interest may also arise if a person, or a member of his or her family, receives improper personal benefits as a result

of his or her position.

Audit and Finance Committee, pursuant to its written charter, is responsible for reviewing and approving related-party transactions

to the extent we enter into such transactions.

Our Audit and Finance Committee considers all relevant factors when determining

whether to approve a related-party transaction, including whether the related-party transaction is on terms no less favorable

than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third-party under the same or similar circumstances and the extent of the related-party’s

interest in the transaction.

No director may participate in the approval of any transaction in which he or she is a related-party,

but that director is required to provide our Audit and Finance Committee with all material information concerning the transaction.

Additionally, we require each of our directors and executive officers to complete a directors’ and officers’ questionnaire

annually that elicits information about related-party transactions.

These procedures are intended to determine whether any such

related-party transaction impairs the independence of a director or presents a conflict of interest on the part of a director,

employee, or officer.

Revenue Recognition

Critical Audit Matter Description

The majority of the Company’s revenues

for its contracts are recognized over-time as the Company (i) sells products with no alternative use to the Company and (ii) has

an enforceable right to recover costs incurred plus a reasonable profit margin for work completed to date.

The Company uses the

cost-to-cost input method to measure progress for its performance obligations because it best depicts the transfer of control to

the customer which occurs as the Company incurs costs on its contracts.

Under the over-time revenue recognition model, revenue

and gross profit are recognized over the contract period as work is performed based on actual costs incurred, an estimate of costs

to complete and resulting total estimated costs at completion.

Given the complexity of the estimates regarding

the revenue and costs associated with such contracts, auditing these estimates required extensive audit effort and a high degree

of auditor judgement to devise, execute and evaluate the results of appropriate audit procedures.

How the Critical Audit Matter was addressed

Our principal audit procedures related

to the Company’s revenue, costs and profit for these contracts included the following:

· We obtained an understanding of and evaluated the design and implementation

of the controls that address the risk of material misstatement of contract revenue including those associated with cost to complete

estimates for long-term fixed price contracts.

· We selected a sample of contracts with customers and performed the

o Evaluated whether the recognition of revenue over time on such contracts

was appropriate based on the terms and conditions of each contract, including whether continuous transfer of control to the customer

occurred as progress was made toward fulfilling the performance obligation.

o Compared the transaction price to the consideration to be received

based on current rights and obligations under the contracts and any modifications that were agreed upon with the customers.

o Tested the accuracy and completeness of the costs incurred to date

for the performance obligation.

o Evaluated the estimates of total cost and profit for the performance

obligation by:

§ Comparing costs incurred to date to the costs management estimated

to be incurred to date.

§ Comparing management’s estimates for selected contracts to

cost and profit estimates for similar current and historic performance obligations.

§ Performing retrospective reviews of management’s judgments

and estimates and comparing actual performance to estimated performance, when evaluating the thoroughness and precision of management’s

estimation process.

§ We analytically evaluated selected quarter over quarter changes in

contract profit estimates by obtaining explanations from the Company’s project managers regarding timing and amount of costs

incurred and corroborating and assessing the reasonableness of these responses by obtaining documents such as signed purchase orders

and contract change orders.

o Tested the mathematical accuracy of management’s calculation

of revenue recognized during the period for the performance obligations.

Liquidity Evaluation

Critical Audit Matter Description

Management has concluded that there were

sufficient resources available to meet its obligations and fund operations for at least one year from the date the consolidated

financial statements were available to be issued and expects to be in compliance with the required debt covenants established under

its credit facility.

The Company’s strategies include significant judgments and estimates involved in the execution of their

business plans which include the ability to maintain and grow its funded backlog orders.

We identified liquidity as a critical audit

matter due to the significant management estimates supporting their conclusion that they will remain in compliance with the established

debt covenant requirements and have sufficient liquidity to sustain normal operations for at least one year from the date the consolidated

financial statements were available to be issued.

This in turn led to a high degree of auditor subjective judgement to evaluate

the evidence supporting the liquidity considerations and related conclusion.

Management’s liquidity conclusion is relevant

to the users of the consolidated financial statements and that also impacted our assessment of liquidity as a critical audit matter.

How the Critical Audit Matter was addressed

Our principal audit procedures related

to the Company’s liquidity evaluation included the following:

· Obtained an understanding of the Company’s process to estimate

future cash flows, including methods, inputs and significant assumptions used in developing the liquidity assessment.

· Evaluated the reasonableness of management’s income statement,

balance sheet, and cash flow projections for at least one year from the date the consolidated financial statements were available

to be issued by comparing the forecasted financial information to historical results, funded and unfunded backlog, newly obtained

contracts as well as considered the Company’s ability to exit loss contracts and the overall change in business strategies

to primarily focus on government versus commercial contracts.

· Evaluated the adequacy of the Company’s disclosure of these

circumstances in the consolidated financial statements.

· Evaluated the impact of actual results incurred to date on the Company’s

projections and covenant calculation through the date the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess

the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures

that respond to those risks.

Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the

consolidated financial statements.

Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by

management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that our audit provides

a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Business Combinations

The Company applied acquisition accounting

for the WMI acquisition in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 805, “Business Combinations”

Acquisition accounting requires that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recorded at

their respective estimated fair values at the date of acquisition.

The excess purchase price over fair value of the net assets

acquired is recorded as goodwill.

In determining estimated fair values, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that

affect the recorded amounts including, but not limited to, expected future cash flows, discount rates, remaining useful lives of

long-lived assets, useful lives of identified intangible assets, replacement or reproduction costs of property and equipment and

the amounts to be recovered in future periods from acquired net operating losses and other deferred tax assets.

Our estimates in

this area impact, among other items, the amount of depreciation and amortization, impairment charges in certain instances if the

asset becomes impaired, and income tax expense or benefit that we report.

Revenue Recognition

Effective January

1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC

606”), using the modified retrospective method.

In accordance with ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue when it transfers

control of a promised good or service to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to be entitled to in

exchange for the good or service.

The majority of the Company’s performance obligations are satisfied over-time as the Company

(i) sells products with no alternative use to the Company and (ii) has an enforceable right to recover costs incurred plus a reasonable

profit margin for work completed to date.

Under the over-time revenue recognition model, revenue and gross profit are recognized

over the contract period as work is performed based on actual costs incurred and an estimate of costs to complete and resulting

total estimated costs at completion.

In 2020, the Company corrected its application of ASC 606, which

resulted in a restatement of its previously issued consolidated financial statements for 2018 and the first three quarters of 2019.

See Note 3, “Revenue”, for

additional information regarding the Company's revenue recognition policy.

The estimated incremental

borrowing rate is derived from information available at the lease commencement date.

The lease ROU asset recognized at commencement

is adjusted for any lease payments related to initial direct costs, prepayments, and lease incentives.

For operating leases, lease expense is

recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

For finance leases, lease expense comprises the amortization of the ROU

assets recognized on a straight-line basis generally over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the underlying

asset and interest on the lease liability.

Variable lease payments not dependent on a rate or index are recognized when the event,

The goodwill impairment test consists of one step comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount.

An entity may still perform the optional qualitative assessment

The Company adopted

ASU-2017-4 for the year ended December 31, 2020.

The outbreak of the COVID-19

coronavirus was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization during our first quarter of 2020.

During the latter part of our

first quarter and subsequent to our quarter end, the COVID-19 pandemic grew, causing non-essential businesses to shut down and many people

to observe the shelter-in-place directive from our state government.

Our business and operations and the industries in which we operate

have been impacted by public and private sector policies and initiatives in the U.S.

to address the transmission of COVID-19, such as

the imposition of travel restrictions and the adoption of remote work.

The COVID-19 pandemic has contributed to a general slowdown in

the global economy, has adversely impacted the businesses of certain of our customers and suppliers, and, if it continues for an extended

period of time, it could adversely impact our results of operations and financial condition.

In response to the COVID-19 impact on our

business, we have been and continue to actively mitigate costs and adjust production schedules.

We have also been taking actions to preserve

capital and protect the long-term needs of our businesses, including negotiating progress payments with our customers and reducing discretionary

Our accounts receivable balance at December 31, 2020 decreased to $ 4,962,906 from $ 7,029,602 at December 31, 2019.

At December 31, 2020, we had working capital of $ 12,309,372 compared to working capital of $ 13,851,719 at December 31, 2019.

On August 24, 2020, the Company

entered into a Sixth Amendment (the "Sixth Amendment") to the BankUnited March 24, 2016 Credit Agreement.

Under the Sixth

Amendment, the parties amended the Credit Agreement by extending the maturity date of the Company's Revolving Loan and Term Loan to May

2, 2022 and making conforming changes to the repayment schedule of the Term Loan, by increasing the Term Loan $ 6.0

million and reducing the Revolving Loan by $ 6.0

The maturities of the Term Loan are included in the maturities of long-term debt.

The BankUnited Facility, as

amended by the Sixth Amendment, requires us to maintain the following financial covenants:

(1) maintain a Fixed Cost (Debt Service)

coverage ratio of no less than 1.5 to 1.0 at December 31, 2020 and no less than 1.25 to 1.0 for the trailing four quarter period at

the end of each quarter thereafter;

(2) maintain a minimum net income, after taxes, of no less than $ 1.00 ;

(3) effective March 31, 2021, maintain a maximum leverage ratio at the end of each quarter for the trailing four quarter period of no more than 4.0 to

(4) maintain a minimum adjusted EBITDA at the end of each quarter of no less than $

and (5) maintain a minimum liquidity of $

capital requirements can vary significantly, depending in part on the timing of new program awards and the payment terms with our customers

and suppliers.

We continue to work to obtain better payment terms with our customers, including accelerated progress payment arrangements,

as well as exploring alternative funding sources.

The Company currently has a shareholders' deficit and has experienced continuing losses

from operations and negative cash flows from operations year to date that collectively represent significant risks to the Company to

continue to operate as a going concern.

To address these matters, the Company has a) negotiated a revised credit facility with BankUnited

effective August 24, 2020, b) has in the fourth quarter exited an unprofitable program to avoid continuing cash losses c) obtained and

is seeking additional progress payment and advance payment customer contract funding provisions, d) initiated new procedures to reduce

investments in inventory and contract assets, e) remained focused on its military segment which has proven to be less susceptible to

COVID-19 related impacts and f) maintained a strong (approximately $ 170

million ) backlog of funded orders, 98 %

of which are for military programs.

Based upon management's assessment of the identified significant risks and the execution of the plans

described above, management believes that substantial risk does not exist as to whether the Company's liquidity and debt resources will

be sufficient to meet its obligations as a going concern through a year and a day from the date these financial statements were available

to be issued.

In December 2018, the Company completed

the acquisition of WMI from Air Industries for a purchase price of $ 7.9 million , subject to a potential post-closing working capital

Of the purchase price, $ 2 million was placed in escrow at closing and was to be released after the completion of the

working capital adjustment and for indemnification contingencies.

Air Industries objected to the Company’s calculation of

the post-closing working capital adjustment and rejected the determination of BDO USA, LLP (“BDO”), the independent

accountant appointed by the parties to resolve the dispute.

On September 27, 2019, the Company filed a notice of motion in the

Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, against Air Industries seeking, among other things, a judgment against

Air Industries in the amount of approximately $ 4.1 million .

In October 2019, Air Industries and the Company jointly authorized

the release to the Company of approximately $ 619,000 from escrow, which represented the value of certain undisputed items.

The remaining escrowed amount of approximately $ 1,381,000 is shown as restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheet.

A performance obligation is a promise

losses generated in 2018 and forward have an indefinite life.

The state NOLs begin to expire in 2034.

Our ability to fully recognize the benefits

from our NOLs is dependent upon our ability to generate sufficient income prior to their expiration.

In addition, our NOL carryforwards

may be limited if we experience an ownership change as defined by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code (“Section 382”).

In general, an ownership change under Section 382 occurs if 5% shareholders increase their collective ownership of the aggregate

amount of our outstanding shares by more than 50 percentage points over a relevant lookback period.

For the year ended December

31, 2020 we have determined that no ownership change occurred during the relevant lookback period that would limit our ability

to use our NOLs, however the sale of additional equity securities in the future may trigger an ownership change under IRC Section

382 which could significantly limit our ability to utilize our tax benefits.

The provision for income tax benefit

for the year ended December 31, 2020 was ($ 53,500 ) ,

an effective tax rate of 3.09 % .

The tax consists of a refund received from the 2014 NOL carryback claim and state minimum taxes.

In February 2019,

the Company received information that the net operating loss carryback that was utilized in 2014 was under examination and

could possibly be partially disallowed by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”).

This adjustment was an issue of

timing of the loss and had no income tax provision effect.

In June 2020, the Company received a letter from the IRS stating

that the returns will be accepted as filed.

In September 2020, the Company received additional refunds related to the tax

years under examination.

The examination is now closed and there is no uncertain tax position recorded for this item.

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief,

and Economic Security Act, or the CARES Act, was enacted and signed into law, and GAAP requires recognition of the tax effects of new

legislation during the reporting period that includes the enactment date.

The CARES Act, among other things, includes changes to the

tax provisions that benefits business entities and makes certain technical corrections to the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, including,

permitting net operating losses, or NOLs, carryovers and carrybacks to offset 100% of taxable income for taxable years beginning before

In addition, the CARES Act allows NOLs incurred in 2018, 2019, and 2020 to be carried back to each of the five preceding taxable

years to generate a refund of previously paid income taxes.

The CARES Act provides other reliefs and stimulus measures.

We have evaluated

the impact of the CARES Act, and do not expect that any provision of the CARES Act would result in a material cash benefit to us or have

a material impact on our financial statements or internal controls over financial reporting.

RESTATEMENT OF

PREVIOUSLY ISSUED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

previously reported, on June 4, 2021, the audit and finance committee (the “Audit and Finance Committee”) of the board

of directors of CPI Aerostructures, Inc.

(the “Company”), determined, based on the recommendation of management and

in consultation with CohnReznick LLP (“CohnReznick”), then the Company’s independent registered public accounting

firm, that the Company’s financial statements which were included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December

31, 2020 and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2020, June 30, 2020, and September 30, 2020 as filed

with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) should no longer be relied upon due to errors in such financial

statements relating to the recording and reporting of inventory costing and related internal controls (the “Inventory Costing

Errors”) and that management’s reports on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, press releases,

and investor communications describing the Company’s financial statements for such periods should no longer be relied upon.

The Company’s management identified the Inventory Costing Errors during its inventory testing procedures for the preparation

of the Company’s financial statements for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2021.

The Company has now determined

that the Inventory Costing Errors increased 2020 net loss by $ 2,010,084 .

correction of the Inventory Costing Errors resulted in the determination that certain contracts were in a loss position and certain

inventory items required additional reserves.

The Company re-evaluated the sufficiency of its provisions for loss contracts and

inventory reserves that it had previously recorded and concluded that increases to these reserves were required.

The insufficient

reserves resulting from such reserve increases are referred to as “Additional Inventory Reserves” and “Loss

Contract Reserve” and are together referred to as the “Insufficient Reserves.” It was further determined by

management that the appropriate starting point for increasing the Insufficient Reserves was during the fourth quarter of 2019.

November 16, 2021, the Audit and Finance Committee determined, based on the analysis and recommendation of management and in consultation

with CohnReznick, that the Company’s financial statements as of and for the period ended December 31, 2019 which were included

in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 should no longer be relied upon

due to errors in such financial statements relating to the recording and reporting of the Insufficient Reserves, that, similarly,

management’s reports on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, press releases, and investor communications

describing the Company’s financial statements for such period should no longer be relied upon, and

stated that the Company expected to restate its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2020 and December

31, 2019, and its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2020, June 30, 2020, and September 30, 2020

as filed with the SEC (the “Original Forms 10-Q”) by filing the Comprehensive Form 10-K/A.

Company, upon conducting an analysis of the impact of the Insufficient Reserves on previously reported financial results, determined

that net loss for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 is $ 324,231 and $ 2,189,728 , respectively, greater than the net loss

reported in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 and the Company’s Annual Report on

Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.

both the Inventory Costing Errors and the Insufficient Reserves, the Company determined that the net loss for the years ended

December 31, 2020 and 2019 is $ 2,334,315 and $ 2,300,083 , respectively, greater than the net loss reported in the Annual Report

on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year

ended December 31, 2019 and net loss for the quarters ended March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020 is $ 544,836 and $ 763,730 , respectively,

greater than the net loss reported in the respective Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for such periods and the net income for the

quarter ended September 30, 2020 is $ 24,556 more than the net income reported in the Quarterly Report for such period.

Inventory Costing Errors resulted from software processing and coding errors, inconsistent units of measure being used for quantities

ordered and quantities received of certain purchased parts, incorrect accruals to accounting periods of the cost of certain goods

received and the Company not having a procedure to address over or under absorbed overhead costs at the end of accounting periods.

The Inventory Costing Errors affected the income reported with respect to the Company’s product lines for which revenue

is recognized when a product ships to customers, which accounted for approximately 15% of total 2020 revenue (the “Non-POC

The Inventory Costing Errors did not affect income reported with respect to the Company’s products for

which revenue is recognized over time using percentage of completion accounting (the “POC Contracts”).

The Loss Contract

Reserve and the Additional Inventory Reserves also only affect the income reported with respect to the Company’s Non-POC

Contracts, and do not affect the income reported with respect to the Company’s POC Contracts.

The Inventory Costing Errors

and the Insufficient Reserves did not affect either prior reported revenue or cash flow for fiscal 2020 and 2019.

AEROSTRUCTURES, INC.

AND SUBSIDIARIES

has considered the effect of the Inventory Costing Errors and the Insufficient Reserves on the Company’s prior conclusions

of the adequacy of its internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of each

of the applicable periods.

As a result of the Inventory Costing Errors and the Insufficient Reserves, management has determined

that a material weakness existed in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of the end of the quarterly

periods ended March 31, 2020, June 30, 2020, September 30, 2020 and for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.

Item 9A – Controls and Procedures within this Form 10-K for a description of these matters.

a result of the restatement included herein caused by the Inventory Costing Errors and Insufficient Reserves, the Company is reporting

herein net loss for the years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 which is $ 2,334,315 and $ 2,300,083 , respectively,

greater than the net loss reported in the Original Form 10-K and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal

year ended December 31, 2019, net loss for the quarters ended March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020 which is $ 544,836 and $ 763,730 ,

respectively, greater than the net loss reported in the respective Original Forms 10-Q, and net income for the quarter ended September

30, 2020 which is $ 24,556 greater than the net income reported in the Original Form 10-Q.

The Inventory Costing Errors and the

Insufficient Reserves did not affect reported revenue or cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2020 or December 31, 2019,

or for the quarters ended March 31, June 30 and September 30, 2020.

and 2019 Restatement

following is a discussion of the restatement adjustments that were made to the Company’s previously issued December 31,

2020 and December 31, 2019 consolidated financial statements due to the Inventory Costing Errors, Loss Contract Reserve and Additional

Inventory Reserves.

Inventory Costing Errors

Company determined that the Inventory Costing Errors resulted in incorrectly reported inventory values and reported income for

the annual periods ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2020, June 30, 2020

and September 30, 2020.

The Inventory Costing Errors were comprised of the following:

Labor costs for work in process were overstated in the detailed inventory records due to an automated reversing entry not processing

A customized IT program to calculate weighted average cost was not tested thoroughly enough, which allowed errors in average cost

calculations to occur in certain situations;

Units of Measure were not consistent between quantities ordered and quantities received for certain classes of purchased parts,

which resulted in overstatements of inventory values due to units of measure not being consistent with unit prices on purchase

orders to suppliers;

The cost of goods received which had not yet processed through the Company’s quality inspection process at the time of the

period-end accounting closes were not properly accrued to the period financial statements;

The Company did not have a process to address over-absorbed or under-absorbed overhead costs at the end of each accounting period.

Loss Contract Reserve

correcting its financial statements for the Inventory Costing Errors, the Company determined that is was a party to some contracts

to deliver product upon which the Company would lose money, and thus the Company’s Loss Contract Reserve was increased accordingly

for the year ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2020, June 30, 2020

and September 30, 2020.

Additional Inventory Reserves

correcting its financial statements for the Inventory Costing Errors, the Company determined that its inventory required additional

reserves to reflect current market value and demand, and thus the Company’s Inventory Reserves were increased accordingly

for the year ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2020, June 30, 2020

and September 30, 2020.

NYSE American

Listing Standards Non-Compliance and Delisting Determination

May 19, 2022, the NYSE American exchange (the “Exchange”) announced the suspension of trading of our common stock

due to non-compliance with the SEC annual and quarterly report timely filing criteria provided for in Section 1007 of the Exchange’s

Company Guide (the “Company Guide”) and announced that it was initiating proceedings to delist our common stock.

a result of the suspension, our common stock began trading on May 20, 2022 under the symbol “CVUA” on the OTC Pink

Limited Information market tier, which is operated by OTC Markets Group Inc.

The Company filed a request for review of the Exchange’s

determination to initiate delisting proceedings to a Committee of the Board of Directors of NYSE Regulation (the “Committee”).

A hearing for this review before a Listing Qualification Panel of the Committee has been scheduled for September 7, 2022 (the

The delisting action has been stayed pending the outcome of the review although trading of our common

stock on the Exchange remains suspended.

We will become current with our SEC reports upon the filing of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2022 (the “2022 Q1 Form 10- Q”) and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 (the “2022 Q2 Form 10-Q”).

The Company believes that becoming current with our SEC reports will resolve the condition that led to NYSE American suspending trading in the Company’s common stock on the Exchange and its determination to commence proceedings to delist the common stock from the Exchange.

The 2022 Q1 Form 10-Q and 2022 Q2 Form 10-Q will be filed as soon as practicable.

We cannot assure you that if the Company becomes current with our SEC reports before the Hearing or the outcome of the Hearing will result in the Exchange changing its delisting determination or that our common stock will resume trading on the Exchange in the future.

September 17, 2021, we received notice from the Exchange indicating that the Company does not meet the continued listing standards

set forth in Part 10 of the Company Guide.

The Company is not in compliance with Section 1003(a)(i) of the Company Guide since

it has stockholders’ equity of less than $ 2 .0 million and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in two of

its three most recent fiscal years and Section 1003(a)(ii) of the Company Guide since it has stockholders’ equity of less

than $ 4 .0 million and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in three of its four most recent fiscal years.

is therefore subject to the procedures and requirements of Section 1009 of the Company Guide and was required to, and timely did,

submit a plan to the Exchange addressing how the Company intends to regain compliance with the continued listing standards by

March 17, 2023 (the “Plan”).

On November 19, 2021, we received notice from the Exchange that it accepted the Plan,

subject to periodic review, including quarterly monitoring, for compliance with the Plan.

If the Company’s common stock

is not delisted from the Exchange as a result of the Company’s delayed filings as described above and (i) the Company is

not in compliance with the continued listing standards by March 17, 2023 or (ii) the Company does not make progress consistent

with the Plan during the plan period, the Exchange staff may initiate delisting proceedings as appropriate.

Part I Item 1A Risk Factors - “There is currently a very limited trading market for our common stock and investors are

not assured of the opportunity to make transactions in our common stock.” Cost reduction

the first quarter of 2022, the Company began a cost reduction initiative designed to improve operational efficiency and reduce

costs during fiscal year 2022.

Management is reallocating resources and reducing operating and general administrative expenses

to more properly align the Company’s costs to anticipated near-term revenue given the timing differences between the conclusion

of certain mature programs and the commencement of new programs in 2022.

The Company executed a headcount reduction and furlough

action in March 2022 and is implementing cost controls and cuts during the balance of fiscal year 2022.

The Company anticipates

recording severance costs related to the headcount reduction in its first fiscal quarter of 2022 and the cost reductions of these

actions are anticipated to positively impact the financial results of the Company beginning in the second fiscal quarter of 2022.
