• Exclusive negotiations are underway for new ground leases at six target airports.
  • All of these are in key metro markets, with average projected tenant rents expected to exceed those in our first six campuses.
  • The aggregate potential square footage of Sky Harbour hangar capacity at these six airports is approximately 1.5 million square feet.
  • The Company expects that three of these ground leases will be finalized by Q4 2023, with the other three finalized by Q2 2024.
• The new project pipeline continues to expand, and now includes dozens of airports.

Following the acquisition of a controlling interest of RapidBuilt on May 12, 2023, the Company moved expeditiously to integrate its employees, operations, accounting, finance and information technology. For the foreseeable future substantially all of RapidBuilt’s activities will be dedicated to designing and manufacturing the steel components of the Company’s new hangar campuses.

Tal Keinan, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented on the Q2 results and other recent events:

“The Sky Harbour team’s energies remain focused on the dual objectives of 1) maximizing unit economics and 2) aggressively pursuing scale.

While unit economics have exceeded our projections, we have faced headwinds from increases in construction and financing costs. As our results suggest, these cost increases are more than offset by rent inflation in the business aircraft storage space, which remains pervasive across US metro markets. Still, the company is implementing strategies to increase its control over factors that drive unit economics. Vertical integration is one of these strategies.

The site acquisition team continues to grow as the company's project pipeline grows. The gestation period for a target airport, from initial contact to win, has typically fallen between twelve and 24 months. With several dozen site acquisition projects commenced last year, new wins have begun to materialize, and all phases of the pipeline have continued to expand. As the Company’s offering is now tested in multiple markets, site acquisition is increasingly focused on the country's top metro markets - defined by prevailing rents. As per-square-foot development costs and operating expenses vary across geographies within a relatively tight range, tenant rents are the number one factor driving unit economics.

Sky Harbour has become recognized by the top flight departments in its markets as the best Home Basing offering in business aviation. We believe this recognition has grown out of a thoughtful integration between the best physical product and the best service offering in business aviation. We continue to invest in growing a team of the highest caliber, in pursuit of constant refinement and improvement, with the intention of leading our space for years to come.”
