| FRESH-START ACCOUNTING |
Note 3 — FRESH-START ACCOUNTING
Upon the Company’s emergence from the Chapter 11 Cases, the Company qualified for and adopted fresh-start accounting in accordance with the provisions set forth in ASC 852 as (i) the Reorganization Value of the Company’s assets immediately prior to the date of confirmation was less than the post-petition liabilities and allowed claims, and (ii) the holders of the existing voting shares of the Predecessor entity received less than 50% of the voting shares of the emerging entity. Refer to Note 2 for the terms of the Plan. Fresh-start accounting requires the Company to present its assets, liabilities and equity as if it were a new entity upon emergence from bankruptcy. The new entity is referred to as “Successor” or “Successor Company.” However, the Company will continue to present financial information for any periods before adoption of fresh-start accounting for the Predecessor Company. The Predecessor and Successor companies may lack comparability, as required in ASC 205, Presentation of Financial Statements (“ASC 205”). Therefore, “black-line” financial statements are presented to distinguish between the Predecessor and Successor companies.
Adopting fresh-start accounting results in a new financial reporting entity with no beginning retained earnings as of the fresh-start reporting date. Upon the application of fresh-start accounting, the Company allocated the Reorganization Value (the fair value of the Successor Company’s total assets) to its individual assets based on their estimated fair values. The Reorganization Value is intended to represent the approximate amount a willing buyer would value the Company’s assets immediately after the reorganization.
Reorganization Value is derived from an estimate of Enterprise Value, or the fair value of the Company’s long-term debt, stockholders’ equity and working capital. The Enterprise Value approved by the Bankruptcy Court as of the Effective Date was $1.25 billion. The Enterprise Value was derived from an independent valuation using an asset based methodology of financial information, considerations and projections, applying a combination of the income, cost and market approaches as of the fresh-start reporting date of October 31, 2019.
See further discussion below under “Fresh-start accounting adjustments” for the specific assumptions used in the valuation of the Company’s various assets.
Although the Company believes the assumptions and estimates used to develop the estimate of Enterprise Value and Reorganization Value are reasonable and appropriate, different assumptions and estimates could materially impact the analysis and resulting conclusions. The assumptions used in estimating these values are inherently uncertain and require judgment.
The following table reconciles the Company’s estimated Enterprise Value to the estimated fair value of the Successor’s Common Stock as of October 31, 2019 (in millions):

Fresh-start accounting adjustments
| (12) |
Represents the adjustments to accounts receivable from affiliate caused by the write-off of revenue previously being straight-lined for which the Company has no future performance obligations. |
| (13) |
Represents the valuation adjustments applied to the Company’s inventory, which consists of aircraft parts, kit parts, work in process and fuel. The fair value of the inventory was estimated using the cost approach. |
| (14) |
Represents the write-off of the Predecessor’s unamortized debt issuance costs as of October 31, 2019 as well as the adjustment to prepaid rent resulting from the change in the Company’s fair value of leases. See footnotes 19 and 25 for further details. This balance also represents the fair value adjustment of the Company’s short-term portion of contract acquisition and pre-operating costs by $8.8 million to its fair value of zero at the Effective Date. |
| (15) |
Represents the valuation adjustments to the Company’s equity method investments in Cougar and Líder, and cost method investment in PAS to fair value. The fair value for the unconsolidated investments was based on a combination of the income approach and the market approach. The income approach includes consideration of a market participant discount rate and cash flow projections prepared by their management. The Guideline Public Company Method relies on valuation multiples from reasonably similar Guideline Public Companies. |
| (16) |
Represents the fair value adjustment to the Company’s land and buildings. The fair value was determined using the direct valuation method of the cost approach of certain owned properties with all other owned properties and related site improvements valued using the indirect method of the cost approach. Concurrently, the income approach and market approach were considered in the context of the Company’s economic obsolescence analysis as part of the application of the cost approach. |
| (17) |
Represents the valuation adjustment to the Company’s aircraft and equipment fair value. The cost approach was the primary valuation method utilized to determine fair value. Concurrently, the income approach was considered in the context of the Company’s economic obsolescence analysis as part of the application of the cost approach. Certain assets, specifically those aircraft classified as held for sale as of December 31, 2019 (Successor), were valued utilizing the market approach, based on preliminary sales offers for those assets. The key assumptions used were market conditions and third party market data, locational considerations and aircraft interchangeability, asset age, current flight hours and operational status and earning potential of the overall business. |
| (18) |
Represents the elimination of the Predecessor’s accumulated depreciation in accordance with fresh-start accounting requirements and revaluation of the corresponding assets described in footnotes 16 and 17 above. |
| (19) |
Reflects the valuation adjustments to the Company’s ROU assets based on the recalculated operating lease liabilities adjusted for the fair value of any favorable or unfavorable lease term. |
| (20) |
Primarily reflects the valuation adjustments to intangible assets and deferred tax asset. The Company’s intangible assets consist of PBH contracts, in which aircraft maintenance is covered by the manufacturer in exchange for a fee per flight hour, and a U.K. SAR customer contract. The fair value of the PBH contracts was determined using a cost approach in which the estimated prior accrued payments were discounted using the weighted average cost of capital for each business over the vendor’s remaining non-cancelable term of the contract. The fair value of the PBH contracts related to non-UK aircraft was further reduced based on the economic obsolescence rate applied to the corresponding aircraft. The U.K. SAR customer contract was fair valued using the multi-period excess earnings method of the income approach. |
| (21) |
Primarily reflects the write-off of short-term portion of contract acquisition and pre-operating costs related to two customer contracts in Norway of $2.2 million and various other miscellaneous costs of $0.2 million. |
| (22) |

| (23) |
Reflects the adjustment to the Company’s lease assumptions (i.e. discount rate) to record its lease obligations as of the Effective Date and the corresponding adjustment to its short-term lease liability. To estimate the market rent, comparable closed leases and current lease listing were analyzed. Market rent growth was based on published survey data. |
| (24) |
Primarily reflects the write-off of long-term portion of contract acquisition and pre-operating costs related to two customer contracts in Norway. |
| (25) |
Reflects the valuation adjustments to the Lombard Debt, Macquarie Debt, PK Air Debt and Airnorth Debt (each as defined herein). The fair value for these debt instruments was determined by considering the future cash flows of the instruments based on the contractual interest rates and then discounted back to Day 1, based on the implied market yield and the Company’s credit rating as of the Effective Date. When fair valuing the debt, credit spreads, a term-matched risk-free rate associated with each payment based on interpolating the U.S. Constant Maturity Treasury Curve, yield volatility (ranging from 30% to 35%) and call schedule (ranging from 100.25% to 103.5%) were utilized. All of the Predecessor’s unamortized debt issuance costs of $15.2 million were written off as of October 31, 2019. Refer to Note 8 for definitions of and further information regarding debt instruments. |
| (26) |
Reflects the valuation adjustment to the Company’s pension liabilities. The fair value was determined by updating the pension plan assumptions and calculations as of the Effective Date. |

| (28) |
Represents the adjustments to deferred tax liability. |
