MIAMI, Aug. 13, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Global Crossing Airlines Group, Inc. (Cboe CA: JET, Cboe CA: JET.B, OTCQB: JETMF) (the “Company” or “GlobalX”), the nation's fastest growing charter airline, today announced its financial and operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025. Except as otherwise disclosed, all figures are presented in United States dollars and prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Management Commentary

“Our second quarter performance reflects the consistency of our execution and the strength of the operating platform we’ve been transforming and strengthening over the past 18 months,” said Chris Jamroz, Executive Chairman of GlobalX. “We’ve focused on scaling the business with discipline — building a more capable, resilient, and profitable airline. That focus is now translating into results: improved profitability, a significant increase in cash flow from operating activities, and record block hours flown, even during a seasonally softer period. The momentum we carried from Q1 into Q2 underscores the versatility of our charter model and affirms our long-term path to sustainable profitability. As we continue to grow our fleet, deepen strategic customer partnerships, and optimize our asset base, we remain steadfast in our goal of becoming America’s largest narrowbody charter airline.”

Ryan Goepel, President and CFO of GlobalX, added, “We continued to execute on our strategic plan in the second quarter as we generated growth across all key financial metrics with record block hours flown. Our performance was driven by our ability to increase our fleet while maintaining strong utilization levels, underscoring the strength and resilience of our operating model. As a result, cash flow provided by operating activities in Q2 increased year-over-year by $7.9 million, reflecting both improved profitability and disciplined cost management. With a growing fleet, continued strong demand for our leading charter operations, and a focused approach to profitable growth, we believe are well-positioned to build on this momentum in the second half of 2025.”

Q2 2025 Financial Highlights (vs. Q2 2024) – Three Month Period

• Revenue: Revenue increased 7% to $61.4 million compared to $57.5 million. The increase was primarily driven by higher block hours flown and aircraft fleet expansion, as well as increased revenue per block hour flown for ACMI.
  

• Total Operating Expenses: Operating expenses increased 6% to $58.1 million compared to $55.0 million. The increase was primarily driven by higher maintenance and personnel costs associated with the ongoing expansion of the GlobalX fleet.
  

• Net Income/EPS: Net income increased 100% to $0.6 million compared to $0.3 million. Earnings per share increased to $0.01 per basic and diluted share, compared to breakeven earnings per basic and diluted share. This was primarily driven by increased revenue, fleet expansion, and higher average rates per block hour flown for passenger ACMI.
  

• EBITDAR¹: EBITDAR increased approximately 6% to $19.8 million compared to $18.7 million.
  

• Cash Flow from Operations: Cash flow provided by operations improved to $8.8 million compared to $0.9 million. The increase was primarily driven by improved profitability, disciplined cost management, and efficiency gains across the business. The Company utilized its cash flow to invest in talent acquisition, fleet expansion and system enhancements to fuel future growth.
  
  

Recent Operational Updates

• GlobalX transitioned from an exclusively leased fleet to a hybrid ownership model through its first acquisition of an Airbus A320 in July 2025.

• Completed two heavy maintenance events and twelve non-heavy maintenance events during the second quarter.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company evaluates its financial performance utilizing various accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted operating expenses, adjusted operating income (loss), Adjusted operating margin, adjusted pre-tax income (loss), Adjusted pre-tax margin, Adjusted net income (loss), Adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDAR. These non-GAAP financial measures are provided as supplemental information to the financial information presented in this press release that is calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP and these non-GAAP financial measures are presented because management believes that they supplement or enhance management's, analysts' and investors' overall understanding of the Company's underlying financial performance and trends and facilitate comparisons among current, past and future periods.

Because the non-GAAP financial measures are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, they should not be considered superior to and are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP financial measures presented in the press release and may not be the same as or comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies due to possible differences in the method of calculation and in the items being adjusted. We encourage investors to review our financial statements and filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.

EBITDA is defined as operating income (loss), plus depreciation, amortization, interest and taxes, and is a supplemental measure of operating performance that the Company believes is useful to facilitate comparisons to its historical consolidated and business-level performance and operating results. The Company believes its presentation of EBITDA, a key metric used internally by management, provides investors with a supplemental view of the Company’s operating performance that facilitates analysis and comparisons of its ongoing business operations because they exclude items that may not be indicative of the Company’s ongoing operating performance.

EBITDAR is defined as operating income (loss), plus depreciation, amortization, interest, taxes and aircraft rent, and is a metric to be considered by investors when comparing results across various airlines, which aims to normalize for the different ways that the airlines acquired their aircraft. This distinction is important when comparing the operational results of an airline leasing its aircraft versus an airline purchasing its aircraft. Specifically, the airline leasing aircraft would see the costs relating to those aircraft flow through aircraft rent, while an airline that owns their aircraft would see their costs for those aircraft flow through depreciation and amortization.
