Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 Preliminary Unaudited Financial Highlights<\/b><\/p>\n \nThe Company\u2019s expected performance reflects higher aircraft utilization and improved contribution per aircraft throughout 2025. During the year, flyExclusive reduced its active fleet while increasing total revenue, reflecting the removal of non-performing aircraft, expanding the high-performing Challenger fleet, significantly improved execution, and a more productive fleet mix. The Company continued its commitment to strengthening the balance sheet in 2025, reducing total long-term notes payable for the full year by more than $80 million while ending 2025 with cash roughly in line with year-end 2024.<\/p>\n \n\u201cThese preliminary unaudited results indicate that 2025 was a transformation of our business,\u201d said Jim Segrave, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of flyExclusive. \u201cThe investment in adding the high-performing Challengers to our fleet coupled with improved fleet optimization and utilization drove historic top-line growth resulting in significantly improved profitability. The capabilities of our vertically integrated platform, highlighted by our recent Starlink dealership agreement, with installation in our aircraft expected to begin in the first quarter of 2026, allows us to continue to provide a world-class experience for our customers.\u201d<\/p>\n \nBrad Garner, Chief Financial Officer, added \u201cOur transformation has been centered on fleet modernization, utilization and cost management driving to sustained profitability. Our continued execution against those initiatives in the fourth quarter resulted in transitioning to positive Adjusted EBITDA, demonstrating the sustainable operating leverage in our model as we continue to scale.\u201d<\/p>\n \nThe Company\u2019s preliminary unaudited fourth quarter and full year 2025 revenue results are based on current expectations and might be adjusted upon completion of annual audit procedures. This financial information does not represent a comprehensive statement of the Company\u2019s financial results for the fourth quarter or full year 2025 and remains subject to the completion of financial closing procedures and internal reviews.<\/p>\n \nThe Company expects to release final financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2025 after market close on March 5, 2026.<\/p>\n Conference Call Information<\/b><\/p>\n \nThe Company is planning to host a conference call Thursday, March 5, 2026 at 5:30 p.m. EST to discuss its financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2025.

These non-GAAP financial measures are an addition, and not a substitute for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to any performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures of financial results provide useful supplemental information about us to investors. However, there are a number of limitations related to the use of Adjusted EBITDA and its nearest GAAP equivalents, including that it excludes significant expenses that are required by GAAP to be recorded in our financial measures. In addition, other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently or may use other measures to calculate their financial performance, and therefore, Adjusted EBITDA might not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.<\/p>\n \nWe calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) adjusted for (i) interest (income) expense, (ii) income tax expense, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) litigation costs, (v) acquisition costs, (vi) equity-based compensation, (vii) non-cash loss on assets held for sale, which represents the impairment charges recognized on assets designated for sale prior to their disposal, (viii) realized losses on aircraft sold as part of fleet modernization efforts, (ix) loss on extinguishment of debt, (x) change in fair value of warrant liabilities, and (xi) SOX control remediation.<\/p>\n \nWe include Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure for assessing useful information about the Company\u2019s operating performance in conjunction with related GAAP amounts and for the following:<\/p>\n \nThe following table reconciles Adjusted EBITDA to net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP measure (in

of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections, and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a result, are subject to risks and uncertainties. Many factors could cause actual future events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this document, including but not limited to: final audited results of operations for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2025; management of growth; risks in executing and seeking the benefits of the Company\u2019s strategy to achieve and maintain profitability; the ability of the Company to timely file its required annual and quarterly reports with the SEC; the ability of the Company to maintain compliance with NYSE American continued listing standards and maintain the listing of the Company\u2019s securities on a national securities exchange; the ability of the Company to comply with covenants under and repay its debt; the potential dilution of stock ownership by our capital raising efforts; the outcome of any legal proceedings; volatility of the price of the Company\u2019s securities due to a variety of factors, including publication of articles about the Company by third parties, changes in the competitive and highly regulated industries in which flyExclusive operates, variations in operating performance across competitors, and changes in laws and regulations affecting flyExclusive\u2019s business; the ability to implement business plans, forecasts, and other expectations, and identify and realize additional opportunities; and the risk of downturns due to general economic or political uncertainties, including as a result of recent U.S. actions relating to Venezuela, and a changing regulatory landscape in the highly competitive aviation industry. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties described in the \u201cRisk Factors\u201d section of flyExclusive\u2019s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, and flyExclusive\u2019s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and other documents filed by the Company from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and the Company assumes no obligation and does not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. The Company does not give any assurance that it will achieve its expectations.<\/p>\n \nView source version on businesswire.com:\u00a0https:\/\/www.businesswire.com\/news\/home\/20260206608091\/en\/<\/a><\/p>\n View source version on businesswire.com: <\/span>https:\/\/www.businesswire.com\/news\/home\/20260206608091\/en\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n Media and Investor Relations Contact KEYWORDS:<\/b> United States North America North Carolina<\/p>\n INDUSTRY KEYWORDS:<\/b> Transportation Air Transport Travel<\/p>\n\n
