SAKER AVIATION SERVICES, INC. ANNOUNCES FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR THE TWELVE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2018

Revenue of $11.1 Million in 2018 Down 7.5% Versus $12.0 Million in 2017

Net Income of $312,000 in 2018 Down 34.8% Versus $478,000 in 2017

New York, NY, March 29, 2018 – Saker Aviation Services, Inc. (OTCQB:SKAS), an
aviation services company specializing in ground-based services to the general aviation
marketplace, today announced its financial results for the twelve months ended
December 31, 2018.

Revenue and net income in the twelve months ended December 31, 2018 of $11,118,452
and $311,536, respectively, were down 7.5 percent and 34.8 percent, respectively, as
compared to revenue of $12,016,031 and $477,628 in the twelve months ended
December 31, 2017.

“The fatal helicopter accident in the East River in March continued its lingering impact on
our results in 2018.” stated Ron Ricciardi, the Company’s President & CEO. “Though the
flight had nothing to do with our Heliport, a large operator from our facility was involved.
That operator understandably took their focus from regular business while fully
cooperating with the resulting investigation. There was also a related impact on demand
for other operators at our Heliport. We anticipate that effect of this accident will mitigate
as we enter 2019.”

The Company also reported Adjusted EBITDA1 of $998,694 for the twelve months ended
December 31, 2018, a decrease of $654,933 as compared to Adjusted EBITDA of
$1,653,627 in the twelve months ended December 31, 2017. Please see footnote 1 below
for the Company’s definition of Adjusted EBITDA, a description of why the Company uses
Adjusted EBITDA and important disclaimers regarding Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-
GAAP measure. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the appropriate GAAP measure
is also included in footnote 1.

-FINANCIAL TABLES TO FOLLOW –
1 Explanation of Adjusted EBITDA, a Non-GAAP Financial Measure
The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation
and amortization, as adjusted for stock based compensation expense and other income
and expense items. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA, which is a financial
measure that is not defined by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), is a
useful performance metric because it eliminates non-cash and/or non-recurring charges
to earnings. It is important to note that non-GAAP measures such as Adjusted EBITDA
should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, net income,
cash flows, or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with
GAAP. A reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA is as follows for the twelve
months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.
