PART III - NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why the Form 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-QSB, or N-SAR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
Air Industries Group (“Air Industries” or the “Company”), is filing this Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25 with respect to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2023 (the “Form 10-Q”). The Company is actively working with its professionals to file its Form 10-Q as soon as possible. Nevertheless, because the Company filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31. 2023, on Friday, August 11, 2023, the Company is unable to file its Form 10-Q within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort or expense because it requires additional time to complete its financial statement preparation and review processes.
The Company announced its financial results for the second quarter of 2023 on August 8, 2023. In the announcement the Company stated that its net loss for the second quarter of 2023 was $395,000 as compared to a net loss of $7,000 for the second quarter of 2022.
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain matters discussed in this Notification are 'forward-looking statements' intended to qualify for the safe harbor from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In particular, the Company's statements regarding trends in the marketplace, future revenues, earnings and Adjusted EBITDA, the ability to realize firm backlog and projected backlog, cost cutting measures, potential future results and acquisitions, are examples of such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the timing of projects due to variability in size, scope and duration, the inherent discrepancy in actual results from estimates, projections and forecasts made by management, regulatory delays, changes in government funding and budgets, and other factors, including general economic conditions, not within the Company's control. Other important factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the Company’s ability to file its Form 10-Q within the five-day extension permitted by the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The factors discussed herein and expressed from time to time in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission could cause actual results and developments to be materially different from those expressed in or implied by such statements. The forward-looking statements are made only as of the date of this press release and the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update such forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances.
