Risk Change Over Time
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 1We may issue additional series of convertible preferred stock under the Series C Purchase Agreements that, upon issuance and conversion, could result in extraordinary additional dilution to our existing common stockholders.
In addition to the shares of convertible preferred stock currently outstanding, the Series C Purchase Agreements provide for additional issuances of our convertible preferred stock, as follows: - Series C-4 Preferred Stock. The investors in the Series C Purchase Agreements may elect in their sole discretion to purchase up to an aggregate of $70,179,000.00 of newly designated Series C-4 Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series C-4 Preferred"), with a stated value of $1,000 per share, in one or more closings. The conversion price of each of the Series C-4 Preferred is subject to adjustment in a manner substantially similar to the Series C-1 Preferred, the Series C-2 Preferred and the Series C-3 Preferred including a $0.35 floor that we may waive in our sole discretion and which we elected to waive on August 10, 2026, and reduced the conversion price of all outstanding shares of Series C-1, Series C-2, Series C-3, Series C-4 and Series D to $0.23. See Note 13 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report for additional information regarding the terms of the Series C-4 Preferred. Assuming all the maximum amount of the Series C-4 Preferred are issued, and assuming conversion of each at the $0.023 conversion price, the Series C-4 Preferred would convert into an aggregate of approximately 305,126,087 shares of our common stock. Together with the shares of common stock that would be issued upon conversion of our currently outstanding Series C-1 Preferred, Series C-2 Preferred, Series C-3 Preferred, Series C-4 Preferred, Series D Preferred and Series J Preferred (as described in the preceding risk factor), the aggregate number of shares of common stock that could be issued upon conversion of all such securities at the relevant conversion prices would be approximately 401,167,702 shares. As of August 10, 2026, we had 14,391,944 shares of common stock outstanding. The aggregate number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of all of our existing and potential future shares of convertible preferred stock described above would represent approximately 27,874% of our common stock outstanding as of August 10, 2026, or, on a post-conversion basis, would result in the dilution of our existing common stockholders to less than approximately 3.6% of our post-conversion outstanding common stock. The actual number of shares of common stock that may be issued under the Series C Purchase Agreements could be higher than the amounts set forth above if we waive the $0.35 floor in our sole discretion, which we may do at any time and which we elected to waive on August 10, 2026, and reduced the conversion price of all outstanding shares of Series C-1, Series C-2, Series C-3, Series C-4 and Series D to $0.23. There can be no assurance that we will not further reduce the conversion price. Whether and when these contingent issuances and conversions occur will depend on, among other things, the investors' decisions to exercise their respective rights, the satisfaction of remaining closing conditions, our ability and willingness to waive the floor or further reduce the conversion price, and the trading price of our common stock. There can be no assurance that any of these events will occur or will not occur. However, if the investors exercise the Series C-4 right in full and the conversion of all of our convertible preferred stock occurs at or near the floor, the resulting dilution to our existing common stockholders would be extraordinary, and would substantially eliminate the existing common stockholders' relative economic and voting interests in the Company. Moreover, the existence of these contingent issuance and conversion rights may itself adversely affect the trading price of our common stock, as market participants may anticipate the issuance and conversion of these securities and the resulting dilution. We may not receive any proceeds from the Series C-4 right because exercise of that right is at the investors' option and is not within our control. As a result, we cannot rely on the Series C-4 right to fund our operations.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 2Issued shares of our convertible preferred stock are convertible into a substantial number of shares of common stock that, upon conversion, will significantly dilute our existing common stockholders.
As of the date of this Form 10-Q, we have outstanding the following series of our convertible preferred stock, each with a stated value of $1,000 per share, that are convertible into shares of our common stock: - 1,610.48 shares of our Series C-1 Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series C-1 Preferred"), issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreements that we entered into on February 6, 2026 and March 9, 2026 (the "Series C Purchase Agreements");- 2,031 shares of our Series C-2 Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series C-2 Preferred"), issued on April 21, 2026 pursuant to the Series C Purchase Agreements;- 2,740 shares of our Series C-3 Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series C-3 Preferred"), issued on July 13, 2026 pursuant to the Series C Purchase Agreements; - 6,821 shares of our Series C-4 Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series C-4 Preferred"), issued on July 30, 2026 and August 14, 2026 pursuant to the Series C Purchase Agreement; - 7,488 shares of our Series D Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series D Preferred"), of which 5,250 shares were issued on April 20, 2026 to SEG Jets in partial consideration for our acquisition of an initial 19.98% interest in FLYTE and 5,778 shares were issued on April 20, 2026 to Creatd, Inc. ("Creatd") in partial consideration for our acquisition of the remaining 80.02% interest in FLYTE and 100% of the membership interests of Ponderosa Air, LLC; and - 9,489.488 shares of our Series J Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series J Preferred"), issued on December 31, 2025 to David A. Jenkins, our Executive Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, and to FatBoy Capital, L.P., an entity controlled by Mr. Jenkins, in exchange for the termination of certain royalty rights. The conversion price of each of the Series C-1 Preferred, Series C-2 Preferred, Series C-3 Preferred, Series C-4 Preferred and Series D Preferred is variable and is subject to downward adjustment based on the trading price of our common stock at specified dates following the effectiveness of the resale registration statement filed pursuant to the related registration rights agreements. In each case, the conversion price is subject to a floor of $0.35 per share, which we may waive at our sole discretion and which we elected to waive on August 10, 2026, and reduced the conversion price of all outstanding shares of Series C-1, Series C-2, Series C-3, Series C-4 and Series D to $0.23. The conversion price of the Series J Preferred is fixed at $1.56 per share, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. Assuming conversion at $0.23 (in the case of the Series C-1, Series C-2, Series C-3, Series C-4 and Series D Preferred) and at the applicable fixed conversion price (in the case of the Series J Preferred), our issued and outstanding shares of convertible preferred stock would convert into an aggregate of approximately 96,041,615 shares of our common stock, consisting of: - approximately 7,002,087 shares issuable upon conversion of the Series C-1 Preferred;- approximately 8,830,435 shares issuable upon conversion of the Series C-2 Preferred;- approximately 11,913,044 shares issuable upon conversion of the Series C-3 Preferred; - approximately 29,656,522 shares issuable upon conversion of the Series C-4 Preferred; - approximately 32,556,522 shares issuable upon conversion of the Series D Preferred; and - approximately 6,083,005 shares issuable upon conversion of the Series J Preferred. As of August 10, 2026, we had 14,391,944 shares of our common stock outstanding. The aggregate number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of our issued and outstanding shares of convertible preferred stock as described above would represent approximately 6,673% of our common stock outstanding as of August 10, 2026, or, on a post-conversion basis, would result in the dilution of our existing common stockholders to less than approximately 13.0% of our post-conversion outstanding common stock. If we were to further lower the $0.23 conversion price with respect to any of the Series C-1 Preferred, the Series C-2 Preferred, the Series C-3 Preferred, the Series C-4 Preferred or the Series D Preferred, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of those securities could be substantially greater than the amounts above. Conversion of the Series C-1 Preferred, the Series C-2 Preferred, the Series C-3 Preferred, the Series C-4 Preferred, the Series D Preferred and the Series J Preferred is also subject to customary beneficial ownership limitations applicable to each holder, which limit individual holders' as-converted ownership to specified thresholds (typically 4.99% or 9.99%) but do not limit the aggregate amount of common stock that may be issued upon conversion to all holders. Therefore, the beneficial ownership limitations do not constrain the aggregate dilution described above. The market price of our common stock has been, and may continue to be, volatile. A sustained decline in our share price prior to the conversion of the Series C-1 Preferred, the Series C-2 Preferred, the Series C-3 Preferred, the Series C-4 Preferred or the Series D Preferred would significantly increase the number of shares issuable upon conversion of those securities, up to the limit imposed by the $0.35 floor, which we may waive in our sole discretion and which we elected to waive on August 10, 2026, and reduced the conversion price of all outstanding shares of Series C-1, Series C-2, Series C-3, Series C-4 and Series D to $0.23. Any such conversion would dilute the voting power and economic interests of our existing common stockholders.

Risk Factors Full Breakdown - Total Risks 40
- Manufacturing - Risk 1AddedThe operation of aircraft is subject to various risks, and failure to maintain an acceptable safety record may have an adverse impact on FLYTE's ability to obtain customers and generate revenue.
The operation of aircraft is subject to various risks, including catastrophic disasters, crashes, mechanical failures, collisions, fire, severe weather, terrorist incidents, cybersecurity events, human error and other operational hazards, any of which could result in loss of life, serious injury, property damage or environmental damage. In addition, any aircraft accident or incident, whether involving FLYTE or other private aircraft operators, could adversely affect public perception of the safety of private aviation generally or of the aircraft types or operators on which FLYTE relies, which could in turn reduce demand for FLYTE's services and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. FLYTE incurs considerable costs to maintain the quality of (i) its safety program, (ii) its training programs and (iii) its operational oversight. If FLYTE is unable to maintain an acceptable safety record, or if a serious accident or incident involving FLYTE or its third-party aircraft operators occurs, the resulting reputational, regulatory, operational, insurance and financial consequences could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
