(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 - Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for interim financial statements and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required for annual financial statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related footnotes for Saker Aviation Services, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”), which appear in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2012 and the condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to make the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2012 and its results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2012 not misleading have been included. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any full year or any other interim period.

The Company has evaluated subsequent events which have occurred after March 31, 2012.

NOTE 2 – Management’s Liquidity Plans

As of March 31, 2012, the Company had cash of $518,642 and had a working capital surplus of $481,602. The Company generated revenue of $3,146,075 and net income of $47,351 for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

On and effective January 30, 2012, the Company entered into an amended and restated Loan Agreement (the “Amended and Restated Loan Agreement”) with Bank of America. The Amended and Restated Loan Agreement increased the Company’s revolving credit facility (“B of A Credit Facility”) to $1,150,000.

The B of A Credit Facility, with an extended balance of $650,000 as of March 31, 2012, requires interest payments based on outstanding balances at an interest rate of 30-day LIBOR plus 300 basis points, and is annually renewable at Bank of America’s option. An annual fee of 0.50% is incurred against the total availability of the B of A Credit Facility.

On September 21, 2011, the Company entered into an agreement with Bank of America whereby the bank established an equipment line of credit for up to $130,000. As of May 1, 2012, the principal amount drawn by the company against the line of credit will be converted into a term loan (the “B of A Equipment Loan”). The B of A Equipment Loan shall be amortized over five years and shall bear interest at a rate equal to the bank’s prime rate plus 1.5 percentage points.

On July 20, 2011, the Company entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Bank of America. The Loan Agreement provided the Company with a $318,198 term loan facility (the “B of A Term Loan”). The B of A Term Loan is amortized over 48 months at an interest rate of 4.2% and matures on July 20, 2015. A one-time origination fee of 1.0% was incurred at the commencement of the B of A Term Loan.

The Company is party to a concession agreement with the City of New York for the operation of the Downtown Manhattan Heliport (the “Heliport”). Under this agreement, the Company must pay the greater of 18% of the first $5 million in program year gross receipts and 25% of gross receipts in excess of $5 million or minimum annual guaranteed payments that began at $1.2 million in Year 1 of the agreement, which commenced on November 1, 2008, and increase to approximately $1.7 million in Year 10 of the agreement, which expires on October 31, 2018. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company incurred with the City of New York approximately $331,000 in concession fees, which is recorded in the cost of revenue.

Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $47,351 and net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $36,298. Basic net loss per share applicable to common stockholders is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding during the periods presented. Diluted net income per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other instruments to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. Potentially dilutive securities, consisting of options and warrants, are excluded from the calculation of the diluted income per share when their exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common stock during the period.

The following table sets forth the components used in the computation of basic net income (loss) per share:

(1) Potential common shares of 900,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings as their exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common stock during the period.

(2) Potential common shares of 8,600,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Stock Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation expense for all share-based payment awards are based on the grant-date fair value. The Company recognizes these compensation costs over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the option vesting term. For the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company incurred stock based compensation of $7,898 and $1,166 respectively. Such amounts have been recorded as part of the Company’s selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of March 31, 2012, the unamortized fair value of the options totaled $26,180.

Option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected life of the option. Because the Company's employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-08, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) – Testing Goodwill for Impairment (ASU 2011-08), to allow entities to use a qualitative approach to test goodwill for impairment. ASU 2011-08 permits an entity to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If it is concluded that this is the case, it is necessary to perform the currently prescribed two-step goodwill impairment test. Otherwise, the two-step goodwill impairment test is not required. ASU 2011-08 is effective for the Company in fiscal 2013 and earlier adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of its pending adoption of ASU 2-11-08 on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 4 - Inventories

Inventories consist primarily of maintenance parts and aviation fuel, which the Company sells to its customers. The Company also maintains fuel inventories for commercial airlines, to which it charges into-plane fees when servicing commercial aircraft. A summary of inventories as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 is set forth in the following table:

SAKER AVIATION SERVICES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

Included in inventories are amounts held for third parties of $108,002 and $173,023 as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, with an offsetting liability included as part of accrued expenses.

NOTE 5 – Related Parties

The law firm of Wachtel & Masyr, LLP provides certain legal services to the Company. William B. Wachtel, the Company’s Chairman of the Board of Directors, is a managing partner of this firm. During the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company was billed approximately $0 for legal services. At March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company has recorded in accounts payable an obligation for legal fees to such firm of approximately $4,200 related to legal services provided by such firm.

On August 29, 2011, the Company entered into a Redemption Agreement with the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary of the Company. As part of this agreement, the non-controlling interest relinquished its membership interest in the subsidiary in return for earn-out payments of the non-controlling interest’s capital account of $2,769,000. Of that amount, $444,000 was paid upon the execution of the Redemption Agreement, an additional approximately $447,000 was paid through March 31, 2012, and the balance is recorded as a liability at a discount rate of seven (7%) percent. Continuing earn-out payments shall be made on a monthly basis in an amount equal to (i) five percent (5%) of the subsidiary’s gross receipts, plus (ii) five percent (5%) of the subsidiary’s pre-tax profit.

NOTE 7 - Litigation

From time to time, the Company may be a party to one or more claims or disputes which may result in litigation. The Company's management does not, however, presently expect that any such matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition or results of operations.

The following discussion should be read together with the consolidated condensed financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this report. This Item 2 contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Undue reliance should not be placed on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this report. Actual results may differ materially from those included in such forward-looking statements. Factors which could cause actual results to differ materially include those set forth at the end of this Item 2 under the heading "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward Looking Statements," as well as those discussed elsewhere in this report and those discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

OVERVIEW

Saker Aviation Services, Inc. (“we”, “us”, “our”) is a Nevada corporation, the common stock, $0.001 par value (the “common stock”), of which is publicly traded on the over the counter bulletin board system under the symbol “SKAS.OB”. Through our subsidiaries, we operate in the fixed base operation (“FBO”) segment of the general aviation industry, in which we serve as the operator of a heliport FBO, two primarily fixed-wing aircraft FBOs and provide consulting services for an FBO facility that we do not own. FBOs provide ground-based services, such as fueling and hangaring for general aviation, commercial and military aircraft; aircraft maintenance; and other miscellaneous services.

We were formed on January 17, 2003 (our date of inception) as a proprietorship and were incorporated in Arizona on January 2, 2004. We became a public company as a result of a reverse merger transaction on August 20, 2004 with Shadows Bend Development, Inc., an inactive public Nevada corporation and subsequently changed our name to FBO Air, Inc. On December 12, 2006, we changed our name to FirstFlight, Inc. On September 2, 2009, we changed our name to Saker Aviation Services, Inc.

Our business activities are carried out as an FBO at the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton (Pennsylvania) International Airport, as an FBO at the Garden City (Kansas) Regional Airport, as the FBO and operator of the Downtown Manhattan (New York) Heliport, and as a consultant to the FBO and operator of the Niagara Falls (New York) International Airport.

The Wilkes-Barre facility became part of our company as a result of our acquisition of Tech Aviation Service, Inc. (“Tech”) in March 2005. The Garden City facility became part of our company as a result of our acquisition of the FBO assets of Central Plains Aviation, Inc. (“CPA”) in March 2005.

The New York heliport facility became part of our company through the award of a concession agreement by the City of New York to operate the Downtown Manhattan Heliport, which we assigned to our subsidiary, FirstFlight Heliports, LLC d/b/a Saker Aviation Services (“FFH”).

The FBO segment of the general aviation industry is highly fragmented. According to the National Air Transportation Association (“NATA”), the industry is populated by over 3,000 operators that serve customers at one or more of over 3,000 airport facilities across the country that have at least one paved 3,000-foot runway. The vast majority of these companies are single location operators. NATA characterizes companies with operations at three or more airports as “chains.” An operation with FBOs in at least two distinctive regions of the country is considered a “national” chain while multiple locations within a single region are considered “regional” chains.

REVENUE AND OPERATING RESULTS

Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2012 and March 31, 2011.

REVENUE

Revenue increased by 13.4 percent to $3,146,075 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 as compared with corresponding prior-year period revenue of $2,775,218.

For the three months ended March 31, 2012, revenue associated with the operation of the Downtown Manhattan Heliport (“Heliport”) increased by 11.4 percent to approximately $1,500,000 as compared to approximately $1,350,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2011. The increase in revenue was in large part impacted by an increase in helicopter landings and passenger counts in the three months ended March 31, 2012 as compared to the same period in the prior year. Unseasonably warm and dry weather during the 2012 period, as compared to 2011, was more conducive to helicopter tourist activity

Revenue associated with the sale of jet fuel, aviation gasoline and related items increased by 19.9 percent to approximately $1,645,000 as compared to the same period in the prior year. The increases in revenue associated with the sale of jet fuel, aviation gasoline and related items was related to a combination of higher volume along with higher average fuel prices as compared with the prior year. We generally price our fuel products on a fixed dollar margin basis. As the cost of fuel increases, the corresponding customer price increases as well. If volume is constant, this methodology yields higher revenue but at comparable gross margins.

Revenue associated with maintenance activities decreased by 30.1 percent to approximately $94,000 as compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease in maintenance revenue was due to decreases in both charges for labor services and for parts as a result of a generally lower level of activity associated with piston aircraft domiciled at the Pennsylvania facility.

Revenue associated with the leasing of aircraft and office space along with the consultation to non-owned FBO facilities increased by 19.2 percent to approximately $17,400 in the three months ended March 31, 2012 as compared to the same period in the prior year. The increases in revenue were associated with higher fees associated with the consultation to non-owned FBO facilities.

GROSS PROFIT

Total gross profit increased 5.3 percent to $1,283,861 in the three months ended March 31, 2012 as compared with the three months ended March 31, 2011. Gross profit as a percent of revenue decreased to 40.8 percent in the three months ended March 31, 2012 as compared to 43.9 percent in the same period in the prior year.

The decrease in gross margin is related to higher fee payments to the City of New York in connection with the Heliport and higher costs of fuel, which translated to greater revenue but at comparable gross profit on a per gallon basis.

OPERATING EXPENSE

Selling, General and Administrative

Total selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $1,210,450 in the three months ended March 31, 2012, an increase of approximately $18,000 or 1.5 percent, as compared to the same period in 2011.

SG&A associated with our FBO operations were approximately $1,160,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2012, an increase of approximately $50,700, or 4.6 percent, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011. SG&A at the Heliport increased due to higher management fees, which offset reduced operating expenses at our other facilities. SG&A associated with our FBO operations as a percentage of revenue was 36.9 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2012, as compared with 40.0 percent in the corresponding prior year period.

Corporate SG&A was approximately $50,600 for the three months ended March 31, 2012, representing a decrease of approximately $32,700 as compared with the corresponding prior year period. The decrease in the three months ended March 31, 2012 was driven largely by lower audit fees, a large portion of which were accrued into 2011.

OPERATING INCOME

Operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $73,411 as compared to $26,239 in the three months ended March 31, 2011. Improvements on a year-over-year basis were driven by a combination of higher levels of revenue leading to increased gross profit as described above.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization was approximately $101,000 and $75,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The increase was largely attributed to the depreciation recorded in connection with the capital improvement program at the Heliport, which was described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

Interest Income/Expense

Interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was approximately $6,900, as compared to $9,600 in three months ended March 31, 2011, with the decrease largely attributable to lower rates of interest in connection with deposited amounts. Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was approximately $37,000, as compared to $39,000 in the same period in 2011.

Income Tax

Income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $29,000 with no comparable expense recorded during the same period in 2011.

Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $47,351 and net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $36,298. The improved performance is a result of the performance characteristics described above.

Basic and diluted net income per share for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $0.00. Basic and diluted net loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $0.00.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of March 31, 2012, we had cash and cash equivalents of $518,642 and a working capital surplus of $481,602. We generated revenue of $3,146,075 and net income of $47,351 for the three months ended March 31, 2012. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, cash flows included net cash provided by operating activities of $249,974, net cash used in investing activities of $34,944, and net cash used in financing activities of $148,345.

On and effective January 30, 2012, we entered into an amended and restated Loan Agreement (the “Amended and Restated Loan Agreement”) with Bank of America. The Amended and Restated Loan Agreement increased our revolving credit facility with the bank (“B of A Credit Facility”) to $1,150,000.

The B of A Credit Facility, with an extended balance of $650,000 as of March 31, 2012, requires interest payments based on outstanding balances at an interest rate of 30-day LIBOR plus 300 basis points, and is annually renewable at Bank of America’s option. An annual fee of 0.50% is incurred against the total availability of the B of A Credit Facility.

On September 21, 2011, we entered into an agreement with Bank of America whereby the bank established an equipment line of credit for up to $130,000. As of May 1, 2012, the principal amount drawn by the company against the line of credit will be converted into a term loan (the “B of A Equipment Loan”). The B of A Equipment Loan shall be amortized over five years and shall bear interest at a rate equal to the bank’s prime rate plus 1.5 percentage points.

On July 20, 2011, we entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Bank of America. The Loan Agreement provided us with a $318,198 term loan facility (the “B of A Term Loan”). The B of A Term Loan is amortized over 48 months at an interest rate of 4.2% and matures on July 20, 2015. A one-time origination fee of 1.0% was incurred at the commencement of the B of A Term Loan.

We are party to a concession agreement with the City of New York for the operation of the Heliport. Under this agreement, we must pay the greater of 18% of the first $5 million in program year gross receipts and 25% of gross receipts in excess of $5 million or minimum annual guaranteed payments that began at $1.2 million in Year 1 of the agreement, which commenced on November 1, 2008, and increase to approximately $1.7 million in Year 10 of the agreement, which expires on October 31, 2018. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, we incurred with the City of New York approximately $331,000 in concession fees, which is recorded in the cost of revenue.

During the three months ended March 31, 2012, we had a net increase in cash of $66,685. Our sources and uses of funds during this period were as follows:

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-08, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) – Testing Goodwill for Impairment (ASU 2011-08), to allow entities to use a qualitative approach to test goodwill for impairment. ASU 2011-08 permits an entity to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If it is concluded that this is the case, it is necessary to perform the currently prescribed two-step goodwill impairment test. Otherwise, the two-step goodwill impairment test is not required. ASU 2011-08 is effective for us in fiscal 2013 and earlier adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of its pending adoption of ASU 2-11-08 on our consolidated financial statements.
