Exhibit 99.1

Audited financial statements of Premier Charter, Inc. for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2024

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To Board of Directors

Altair International Corp. (formerly “Premier Air Charter, Inc.”)

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Altair International Corp. (formerly “Premier Air Charter, Inc.”) (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholder’s deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has a net loss during the year ended December 31, 2024 and has negative working capital at such date. Further, at December 31, 2024, the Company is dependent on support from its related parties. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the entity’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.  

Related-party Transactions

Description of the Matter:

As discussed in Note 6, the Company engages in significant related party transactions with businesses controlled by, and with people who are related to, the officers and directors of the Company, such as pass-through costs, aircraft maintenance revenue, aircraft management fees, charter sales, debt from/to related parties and aircraft leases.

Our auditing of management’s identification of related parties and the related transactions was complex and is based on a thorough understanding the Company’s related party relationships, contracts, and business activities. These were the principal considerations that led us to determine this as a critical audit matter.

How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit:

Our audit procedures for related-party transactions included the following, among others:

Related-Party Transactions

As discussed in Note 6 to the financial statements, the Company has had numerous significant transactions with businesses controlled by, and with people who are related to, the officers and directors of the Company. The Company’s financial position and results of operations, as reflected in the accompanying financial statements, might be different if these transactions were among wholly unrelated parties. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.        Organization and Business

Formation and Business of the Company

Altair International Corp., formerly Premier Air Charter, Inc., formerly Premier Air Charter, LLC, (“Premier”) was acquired by Tipp Aviation, LLC (“Tipp Aviation” or “Tipp”) on July 1, 2019 (acquisition date). Premier was a 100% owned subsidiary of Tipp Aviation. Tipp Aviation is a subsidiary of Tipp Investments, LLC.

Premier is a San Diego-based jet charter company that provides private charter flights, aircraft management services, and aircraft maintenance. The Premier has its registered office address at 2006 Palomar Airport Road, Suite 210, Carlsbad, CA 92011, which is also the principal place of business.

On February 16, 2024, Premier converted to a C-Corporation whereby the 300,000 membership units outstanding at Premier Air Charter, LLC were exchanged for 10,000 shares of the Company’s no par value common stock.

Altair Merger Agreement

On February 16, 2024, Altair International Corp. (the “Altair”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) among Premier Air Charter, Inc. (“Premier”), Premier Air Charter Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”) and TIPP Aviation, LLC, the sole shareholder of Premier (“TIPP”). Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Altair will exchange 85% of its shares of common stock for all issued and outstanding shares of Premier common stock and Merger Sub will be merged into Premier (the “Merger”). The officers and directors of Premier are now the officers and directors of Altair following the Merger. On March 5, 2025, the Altair, Premier, Merger Sub and TIPP entered into an Amended Merger Agreement amending various procedural items of the Merger Agreement (the “Amended Merger Agreement”). On March 11, 2025, the Merger closed whereby Merger Sub merged with and into Premier with Merger Sub ceasing to exist, Premier becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Altair and Altair issuing TIPP 237,871,049 shares of common stock. The Merger is intended to qualify for federal income tax purposes as a tax-free reorganization under the provisions of Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

Following the Closing, Premier was deemed the accounting predecessor of the Merger and will be the successor registrant for SEC purposes, meaning that Premier’s financial statements for previous periods, include the financial statements included herein, will be disclosed in this and future periodic reports filed with the SEC.

The Merger was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization. Under this method of accounting, Altair is treated as the acquired company for financial statement reporting purposes. These financial statements reflect the financial statements of Premier as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 and for each of the years then ended. In addition, these financial statements capture the capital structure of Altair and reflect only the 237,871,049 common shares issued to the former Premier shareholder as being outstanding from the inception of Premier. The 41,977,244 common shares retained by the historical Altair shareholders will be reflected as being issued on March 5, 2025, the closing date of the acquisition. As of the date of this filing, there are 279,848,293 shares of Altair common stock issued and outstanding. Any reference to the “Company” within these financial statements is a reference to Premier.

Unaudited proforma financial statements of Altair and Premier had the acquisition taken place on January 1, 2023 are as follows:

At December 31, 2024, there were no significant assets or liabilities of Altair, accordingly, no proforma balance sheets are presented.

Going Concern and Liquidity

The Company’s financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, the realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.

There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining additional funding, or that the Company’s projections of its future working capital needs will prove accurate, or that any additional funding will be sufficient to continue operations in future years. In addition, support of the Company’s operations is dependent on receiving support from related parties which primarily consists of financial support for revenue and operating expenses. As of December 31, 2023, the Company was owed $6.0 million from related parties. The Company entered into a note receivable agreement with the related parties for outstanding amounts, but payments were not made according to schedule payments noted in those agreements. However, in May 2024, all related party debt was satisfied with the transfer of various assets and liabilities, see Note 4. Also, even though the Company secured additional financing on favorable terms in the form of a line of credit from a related party in August 2024, if the Company is not able to secure adequate additional funding, the Company may be forced to make reductions in spending, extend payment terms with supplies, liquidate assets where possible, and/or suspend or curtail planned programs. Any of these actions could materially harm the Company’s business, results of operations, and prospects. The Company’s ability to raise additional capital may be adversely impacted by potential worsening global economic conditions and disruptions to, and volatility in, financial markets in the United States and worldwide resulting from ongoing global issues. Accordingly, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

2.         Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP).

Principles of Consolidation

As of December 31, 2024, these financial statements contain the assets and liabilities of Premier. As disclosed above, on March 11, 2025, the operations of Altair will be consolidated. As of December 31, 2024, these financial statements do not include any of Altair’s operations other than the capital structure. All significant intercompany balances and transactions will be eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that impact the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses and the disclosure in the Company’s financial statements and accompanying notes. The Company based its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. By their nature, estimates are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty and, as such, actual results may differ from management’s estimates.

Significant estimates include the allowance for credit losses, determination of the incremental borrowing rate used and the classification of right of use leases, recoverability of long-lived assets, including engine reserves.

Segment Reporting

The Company currently operates and manages its business as one operating segment, which is the business of operating chartered flights and managing leased aircraft. The Company’s chief executive officer, who is the chief operating decision maker, reviews financial information on an aggregate basis for evaluating financial performance.

Cash

Cash consists of cash in readily available checking accounts and funds deposited into savings accounts. Cash is recorded at cost, which approximates fair value. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had cash balances deposited at a major financial institution. Cash balances are subject to minimal credit risk as the balances are with high-credit quality financial institutions.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are comprised of trade accounts receivable from the Company’s customers. Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. An allowance for doubtful accounts is established based on various factors, including credit profiles of the Company’s customers, historical payments, and current economic trends. The Company reviews the need for an allowance for accounts receivable by assessing individual customer accounts receivable over a specific aging and amount, and historical collection experience. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had an allowance for doubtful accounts of $72,405 and $72,405, respectively.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that may potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of cash and receivables. The Company places cash with multiple high-credit quality financial institutions. This is guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to certain limits and although deposits are held with multiple financial institutions, deposits at times may exceed the federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

Accounts receivable are spread over many customers. Credit quality is monitored on an ongoing basis, and reserves for estimated credit losses are recorded as needed. There was one customer that accounted for 10% and 26% of revenue for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. There were two customers that accounted for 89% and 34% of accounts receivable as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Property and Equipment, Net

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Property and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.

The following estimated useful lives were used to depreciate the Company’s assets:

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets consist primarily of property and equipment. Long-lived assets are tested for impairment when events and circumstances indicate the assets might be impaired by first comparing the estimated future undiscounted cash flows of the asset or asset group to the carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the estimated future undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss of its long-lived assets is recognized based on the amount that the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset or asset group. The Company did not recognize impairment losses of its long-lived assets during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.

Investments

The Company applies the cost method of accounting to investments when it does not have significant influence or a controlling interest in the investee and the fair value of the investment is not readily determinable. Dividends on cost method investments received are recorded as income.

For equity investments without readily determinable fair values measured at cost, the Company assesses investments for impairment whenever there are observable price changes for an identical or similar investment of the same issuer. If the Company identifies observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer, the Company must measure its equity investment at fair value in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, as of the date that the observable transaction occurred. See Note 3 for additional information.

Debt

Debt is recognized initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and is subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognized in the statement of operations over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.

Classification of debt depends on the terms of the agreement. Debt payable within twelve months after reporting period is reported as current liabilities while debt that is expected to be due more than twelve months after the reporting period is reported as non-current liabilities. However, if at the balance sheet date, the Company intends to refinance a short-term obligation on a long-term basis, the short-term obligation is classified as non-current only if the Company can demonstrate its ability to consummate the long-term refinancing by either of the (a) issuing the long-term obligation or equity securities after the Company’s balance sheet date, but before the balance sheet is issued or available to be issued or (b) entering into a financing agreement before the borrower’s balance sheet is issued or available to be issued.

Leases

Under ASC 842, leases are separated into two classifications: operating leases and finance leases. For a lease to be classified as a finance lease, it must meet one of the five finance lease criteria at inception: (1) transfer of title/ownership to the lessee, (2) purchase option, (3) lease term for the major part of the remaining economic life of the asset, (4) present value represents substantially all of the fair value of the asset, and (5) asset specialization. Any lease that does not meet these criteria is classified as an operating lease. ASC 842 requires all leases to be recognized on the Company’s balance sheet. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (ROU) assets, current operating lease liabilities and noncurrent operating lease liabilities within the balance sheet. Finance leases are included in property, plant, and equipment, current maturities of long-term debt and finance leases, and long-term debt and finance leases, net of current maturities, within the balance sheet.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, establishes a fair value hierarchy for instruments measured at fair value that distinguishes between assumptions based on market data (observable inputs) and the Company’s own assumptions (unobservable inputs). Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions about the inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

ASC 820 identifies fair value as the exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between the following:

Level 1:      Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2:      Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3:      Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which requires the Company to develop its own assumptions.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires management to make judgments and consider factors specific to the asset or liability. The Company’s financial assets are subject to fair value measurements on a recurring basis. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, The Company’s investment – related party is considered a level 2 item as the fair market value is based upon the common stock of Dalrada Financial Corporation, see above and Note 3 for additional information.

Revenue Recognition

The Company follows ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606) for recognition of its chartered flights and management fees. Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration that the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for goods or services and excludes sales incentives and amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The Company analyzes the nature of these performance obligations in the context of individual agreements in order to assess the distinct performance obligations.

The Company applies the following five-step model to recognize revenue: (i) identification of the promised goods or services in the contract; (ii) determination of whether the promised goods or services are performance obligations, including whether they are distinct in the context of the contract; (iii) measurement of the transaction price, including the constraint on variable consideration; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (v) recognition of revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation.

Revenue is derived from a variety of sources including, but not limited to (i) flights and (ii) aircraft management.

The Company accounts for a contract when both parties have approved and are committed to performing their obligations, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance, and the collectability of consideration is probable.

Revenue is recorded net of discounts on standard pricing and incentive offerings, including special pricing agreements and certain promotions.

Deferred revenue is an obligation to transfer services to a customer for which consideration has already been received. Upon receipt of a prepayment from a customer for all or a portion of the transaction price, a contract liability is initially recognized. The contract liability is settled and revenue is recognized upon satisfaction of the performance obligation to the customer at a future date.

Flights and flight-related services, along with the related costs of the flights, are earned and recognized as revenue at the point in time in which the service is provided. For round trip flights, revenue is recognized upon completion of the trip.

The Company manages aircraft for owners in exchange for a contractual fee. Management fees are reported as revenue along with amounts billed to the aircraft owner for maintenance parts and labor. Owner-incurred expenses, including maintenance coordination, cabin crew, and pilots, as well as recharging of certain incurred aircraft operating costs and expenses such as maintenance, fuel, landing fees, parking, and other related operating costs are recovered by the Company as a pass through costs. No revenue is recorded for the reimbursement of these costs.

The Company’s disaggregated revenues comprised of the following for the years ended December 31:

Advertising Costs

The Company reports as expense the cost of advertising and promoting its services as incurred. Such amounts are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations and totaled $198,557 and $177,482 for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Income Taxes

Prior to February 2024, as discussed in Note 1, the Company was taxed as a partnership. Under these provisions, the Company was not subject to federal corporate income taxes on its taxable income. Instead, the member was liable for individual federal and state income taxes on their respective shares of the Company’s taxable income. However, the Company was subject to certain state, excise, franchise and license fees; the provision for income taxes reflected in the accompanying financial statements consists primarily of such items. Deferred tax assets and liabilities related to these taxes were insignificant.

Subsequent to January 1, 2024, the Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the financial statements or in the Company’s tax returns. Deferred income taxes are recognized for differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities at the enacted statutory tax rates in effect for the years in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company evaluates the realizability of deferred tax assets and valuation allowances are provided when necessary to reduce net deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized.

The Company calculates the current and deferred income tax provision based on estimates and assumptions that could differ from the actual results reflected in income tax returns filed in subsequent years. Adjustments based on filed income tax returns are recorded when identified. The amount of income taxes paid is subject to examination by U.S. federal and state tax authorities. The estimate of the potential outcome of any uncertain tax issue is subject to management’s assessment of relevant risks, facts and circumstances existing at that time. To the extent that the assessment of such tax positions change, the change in estimate is recorded in the period in which the determination is made.

At January 1, 2024, the Company recorded a deferred tax liability of approximately $23,000 due to book to tax difference upon the conversion to a C-corp. As of December 31, 2024, the Company reversed the deferred tax liability as the Company has a deferred tax asset due to net operating losses. As of December 31, 2024, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance against 100% of the deferred tax assets.

Net Income Per Share

Net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period as defined by Financial Accounting Standards, ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share”. Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares and dilutive share equivalents outstanding. The Company does not have any dilutive securities outstanding for the periods presented within these financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The FASB issues ASUs to amend the authoritative literature in ASC. There have been several ASUs issued to date, that amend the original text of ASC. Management believes that those issued to date either (i) provide supplemental guidance, (ii) are technical corrections, (iii) are not applicable to us or (iv) are not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.

Accounting Standard Update 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, which requires more detailed income tax disclosures. The guidance requires entities to disclose disaggregated information about their effective tax rate reconciliation as well as expanded information on income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The disclosure requirements will be applied on a prospective basis, with the option to apply them retrospectively. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the disclosure requirements related to the new standard.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures which provides guidance to improve the disclosures about a public entity’s reportable segments and address requests from investors for additional, more detailed information about reportable segment’s expenses. The new guidance must be adopted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted, and retrospective application is required for all periods presented. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

3.        Financial Statement Elements

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment, net, as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 consists of the following:

Depreciation related to property and equipment was $221,259 and $16,701 for the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Aircraft Engine Long Term Service Contracts

The Company is a party to long term service contracts to perform engine replacement and major maintenance. These contracts extend the useful life of an engine by providing major maintenance and/or replacement engines to mitigate risk of lost charter revenue due to aircraft downtime.  These contracts require the Company to pay in advance, prior to services being performed or replacement parts being provided.  Payments made for such contracts for aircraft operated under operating leases are expensed as incurred.  Payments made for the long-term service contracts for aircraft owned or financed are capitalized as incurred on the balance sheet and not depreciated.  When the engine reserve company replaces or performs major maintenance, the cost of that event is then capitalized and depreciated over the useful life of the replacement part/service life of the major maintenance/replacement.

Investment - Related Party

The Company holds 420,366 shares of Dalrada Financial Corporation (“DFC”) Convertible Series “G” preferred stock (“Series G”). The stated amount of the investment was $420,366. The Series G are convertible at a fixed rate conversion price of $0.30 per common share, for a total of 1,401,220 common shares of DFC. The ownership in DFC is less than 20%. The Company recorded the investment at cost as this is an equity investment without readily determinable fair value.

During the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded a gain (loss) of ($195,471) and $168,847, respectively. The Company bases the fair market value of the investment on the closing stock price of DFC’s common stock which is considered a similar investment.

Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses

Accounts payable and accrued expenses as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 consist of the following:

Deferred revenue is recorded when payments are received in advance of the Company performing its service obligations and are recognized over the service period. Deferred revenue primarily relates to prepayments of chartered flights as customers pay upfront for flights. Deferred revenue as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 was $192,820 and $478,349, respectively. All deferred revenue recorded at December 31, 2023, was recorded as revenue during the year ended December 31, 2024. All deferred revenue as of December 31, 2024, is expected to be recorded as revenue in calendar 2025.
