Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1.	Basis of Presentation

The Business - Gogo Inc. (“we, us, our,” etc.) is a holding company, which through its operating subsidiaries is a provider of in-flight connectivity and wireless in-cabin digital entertainment solutions. We operate through the following three segments: Commercial Aviation North America or “CA-NA,” Commercial Aviation Rest of World or “CA-ROW” and Business Aviation or “BA”. Our CA-NA business provides “Gogo^®” branded in-flight connectivity and wireless digital entertainment solutions to commercial airline passengers flying routes that generally begin and end within North America, which for this purpose includes the United States, Canada and Mexico. Our CA-ROW business, which was established to provide in-flight connectivity and wireless digital entertainment solutions to passengers flying on foreign-based commercial airlines and international flights of North American based commercial airlines, is in the start-up phase as we launched commercial international connectivity service in March 2014. The routes included in our CA-ROW segment are those that begin and/or end outside of North America (as defined above) for which our international service will be provided. Our BA business sells equipment for in-flight connectivity and telecommunications and provides in-flight internet connectivity and other voice and data communications services to the business aviation market. BA services include Gogo Biz, our in-flight broadband service that utilizes both our air-to-ground (“ATG”) network and our ATG spectrum, and satellite-based voice and data services through our strategic alliances with satellite companies.

Basis of Presentation - The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and in conformity with Article 10 of Regulation S-X promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with our annual audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 as filed with the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 14, 2014 (the “2013 10-K”). These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all material adjustments (which include only normally recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly state, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

The results of operations and cash flows for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2014.

As described in Note 3, “Common Stock and Preferred Stock” in our 2013 10-K, prior to our Initial Public Offering (“IPO”) on June 21, 2013, we had three classes of preferred stock outstanding, all of which converted into an aggregate 66,235,473 shares of common stock upon the consummation of the IPO. The liquidation preference associated with our Class A Senior Convertible Preferred Stock provided for a minimum return upon a Deemed Liquidation Event, such as an IPO. The additional common shares issued in connection with such minimum return upon the consummation of the IPO are included in the number of common shares above into which the preferred stock converted. Subsequent to the conversion of the preferred stock into common stock, we did not incur any preferred stock return or accretion of preferred stock.

We priced the IPO of 11,000,000 shares of our common stock at $17 per share. Our common stock began trading on the NASDAQ Global Select Market on June 21, 2013.

We have one class of common stock outstanding as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates the significant estimates and bases such estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Reclassifications - In order to conform to the current year presentation, certain amounts in our 2013 unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows have been reclassified. Specifically, other non-current assets of $341 and other non-current liabilities of $196 for the six month period ended June 30, 2013 have been combined into other non-current assets and liabilities in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Additionally, deferred rent of $6 for the six month period ended June 30, 2013 has been combined into accrued liabilities, and non-current deferred rent of $(87) for the six month period ended June 30, 2013 has been combined into other non-current assets and liabilities in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

2.	Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue From Contracts With Customers (“ASU 2014-09”). This pronouncement outlines a single comprehensive model to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. We will adopt this guidance as of January 1, 2017. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

3.	Net Loss Per Share

Basic and diluted net loss per share have been calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Prior to our IPO, the three classes of then outstanding preferred stock were all considered participating securities requiring the two-class method to calculate basic and diluted earnings per share. In periods of a net loss attributable to common stock, the three classes of preferred stock were excluded from the computation of basic earnings per share either due to the fact that they were not required to fund losses or because the redemption amount was not reduced as a result of losses.

As a result of the net loss for each of the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, for the periods where such shares or securities were outstanding, all of the outstanding shares of common stock underlying stock options, AC Management LLC (“ACM”) Units, deferred stock units, restricted stock units and preferred stock were excluded from the computation of diluted shares outstanding because they were anti-dilutive.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013; however, because of the undistributed losses the three classes of our pre-IPO preferred stock are excluded from the computation of basic earnings per share in 2013 as undistributed losses are not allocated to preferred shares (in thousands, except per share amounts):

4.	Inventories

Inventories consist primarily of telecommunications systems and parts, and are recorded at the lower of cost (average cost) or market. We evaluate the need for write-downs associated with obsolete, slow-moving, and nonsalable inventory by reviewing net realizable inventory values on a periodic basis.

Inventories as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, all of which were included within the BA segment, were as follows (in thousands):

6.	Intangible Assets

Our intangible assets are comprised of both indefinite- and finite-lived intangible assets. Intangible assets with indefinite lives and goodwill are not amortized, but are reviewed for impairment at least annually or whenever events or circumstances indicate the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. We perform our annual impairment tests of our indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year. We reevaluate the useful life of the indefinite-lived intangible assets each reporting period to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life. The results of our annual indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill impairment assessments in the fourth quarter of 2013 indicated no impairment.

As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, our goodwill balance, all of which related to our BA segment, was $0.6 million.

Our intangible assets, other than goodwill, as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 were as follows (in thousands, except for weighted average remaining useful life):

Amortization expense was $2.9 million and $5.5 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and $2.6 million and $4.9 million, respectively, for the comparable prior year periods.

Amortization expense for each of the next five years and thereafter is estimated to be as follows (in thousands):

Actual future amortization expense could differ from the estimated amount as the result of future investments and other factors.

7.	Warranties

Our BA segment provides warranties on parts and labor for our systems. Our warranty terms range from two to five years. Warranty reserves are established for costs that are estimated to be incurred after the sale, delivery, and installation of the products under warranty. The warranty reserves are determined based on known product failures, historical experience, and other available evidence, and are included in accrued liabilities in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. Our warranty reserve balance was $0.9 million as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

8.	Long-Term Debt and Other Liabilities

Senior Debt – As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 we had $237.7 million and $240.8 million, respectively, outstanding under a five-year term loan that matures on June 21, 2017 (the “Amended Senior Term Facility”). The terms of the Amended Senior Term Facility are set forth in a Credit Agreement dated as of June 21, 2012, and amended on April 4, 2013, among Gogo Intermediate Holdings LLC, Aircell Business Aviation Services LLC, and Gogo LLC, as borrowers, the lenders named therein, and Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent. See Note 9 “Long-Term Debt and Other Liabilities,” in our 2013 10-K for additional information on our Amended Senior Term Facility.

As of June 30, 2014, we were in compliance with the covenants, reporting and notice requirements of the Amended Senior Term Facility and no event of default had occurred, except for minor omissions of required notices and filings which were cured upon the signing of the Amended and Restated Senior Term Facility as defined below.

On July 30, 2014, the Borrowers entered into an Amendment and Restatement Agreement (the “Amendment”) to the Amended Senior Term Facility. We refer to the Amendment and the Amended Senior Term Facility collectively as the “Amended and Restated Senior Term Facility.”

Prior to the Amendment, under the Amended Senior Term Facility we borrowed an aggregate principal amount of $248.0 million (the “Tranche B-1 Loans”), of which $237.7 million was outstanding as of June 30, 2014. Pursuant to the Amendment, we borrowed an aggregate additional principal amount of $75.0 million (the “Tranche B-2 Loans” and, together with the Tranche B-1 Loans, the “Loans”). We received net cash proceeds from the Tranche B-2 Loans of $72.6 million following the payment of debt issuance fees of $2.4 million. We are using the proceeds from the Tranche B-2 Loans for general corporate purposes.

In connection with the Amendment, the maturity date of the Amended and Restated Senior Term Facility was extended to March 21, 2018. Principal payments of $1.7 million are due on the last day of each calendar quarter through December 31, 2017, with the remaining unpaid principal amount due and payable at maturity on March 21, 2018.

As of June 30, 2014, the interest rate on the Amended Senior Term Facility was 11.25% and all loans were outstanding as three month LIBOR loans. The interest rates applicable to the Tranche B-2 Loans are based on a fluctuating rate of interest measured by reference, at ABAS’ option, to either (i) a London inter-bank offered rate adjusted for statutory reserve requirements (“LIBOR”) (subject to a 1.00% floor) plus an applicable margin of 6.50% per annum, or (ii) an alternate base rate (“Base Rate”) (subject to a 2.00% floor) plus an applicable margin of 5.50% per annum. The interest rates applicable to the Tranche B-1 Loans under the Amended and Restated Senior Term Facility, which remain unchanged from the interest rates applicable under the Amended Senior Term Facility, are based on a fluctuating rate of interest measured by reference, at ABAS’ option, to either (i) LIBOR (subject to a 1.50% floor) plus an applicable margin of 9.75% per annum, or (ii) Base Rate (subject to a 2.50% floor) plus an applicable margin of 8.75% per annum. We will pay customary fees in respect of the Amended and Restated Senior Term Facility.

The Tranche B-2 Loans are secured by the same collateral and guaranteed by the same guarantors as the Tranche B-1 Loans. The call premiums, mandatory prepayments, covenants, events of default and other terms applicable to the Tranche B-2 Loans are also generally the same as the corresponding terms applicable to the Tranche B-1 Loans under the Amended and Restated Senior Term Facility.

We paid $19.6 million of loan origination fees and financing costs related to the Amended Senior Term Facility, all but $3.0 million of which have been accounted for as deferred financing costs. The $3.0 million of fees that were not accounted for as deferred financing costs were fees incurred but not paid directly to the lenders in connection with the amendment in April 2013 and were expensed to interest expense. See Note 9, “Interest Costs,” for additional details. Total amortization expense of the deferred financing costs was $0.9 million and $1.7 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and $0.8 million and $1.2 million, respectively, for the comparable prior year periods. Amortization expense is included in interest expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the balance of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the Amended Senior Term Facility was $11.3 million and $13.0 million, respectively, which was included as a separate line in our consolidated balance sheets.

Alaska Financing - On November 2, 2010, we entered into a $4.1 million standby credit facility agreement (the “Alaska Facility”) with Alaska Airlines, Inc. (“Alaska Airlines”) to finance the construction of ATG network sites in Alaska. The Alaska Facility has a six-year term and an interest rate of 10% per annum, compounded and payable quarterly. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had $1.3 million and $1.5 million, respectively, outstanding under the Alaska Facility. No further draws can be made under the Alaska Facility and principal amounts outstanding are payable in quarterly installments until its maturity on November 12, 2016, or can be prepaid at any time without premium or penalty at our option. The Alaska Facility is secured by a first-priority interest in our cell tower leases and other personal property located at the cell sites in Alaska.

Pursuant to our equipment and revenue agreement with Alaska Airlines, the share of service revenue (“revenue share”) we pay Alaska Airlines increases as long as any amounts are outstanding under the Alaska Facility. Alaska Airlines revenue share increases by 300 basis points for service revenue generated on flights that use the ATG network in Alaska, until the principal and all accrued interest is paid in full. This incremental revenue share was less than $0.1 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 and is included in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations as part of our interest expense.

Principal payments under the Alaska Facility in each of the next five years and thereafter are as follows (in thousands):

Letters of Credit - We maintain several letters of credit totaling $7.9 million and $5.4 million as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. Certain of the letters of credit require us to maintain restricted cash accounts in a similar amount, and are issued for the benefit of the landlords at our current office locations in Itasca, Illinois; Bensenville, Illinois; Broomfield, Colorado; our future office location in Chicago, Illinois; and our future location in Broomfield, Colorado.

9.	Interest Costs

We capitalize a portion of our interest on funds borrowed during the active construction period of major capital projects. Capitalized interest is added to the cost of the underlying asset and amortized over the useful lives of the assets.

The following is a summary of our interest costs for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 (in thousands):


	For the Three Months				For the Six Months

Leases

Arrangements with Commercial Airlines — Pursuant to contractual agreements with our airline partners, we place our equipment on commercial aircraft operated by the airlines for the purpose of delivering the Gogo^® service to passengers on the aircraft. We are generally responsible for the costs of installing and deinstalling the equipment. Under one type of connectivity agreement we maintain legal title to our equipment; however, under a second type of connectivity agreement some of our airline partners make an upfront payment and take legal title to such equipment. The majority of the equipment transactions where legal title transfers are not deemed to be sales transactions for accounting purposes because the risks and rewards of ownership are not fully transferred due to our continuing involvement with the equipment, the length of the term of our agreements with the airlines and restrictions in the agreements regarding the airlines’ use of the equipment. We account for these equipment transactions as operating leases of space for our equipment on the aircraft. The assets are recorded as airborne equipment on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, as noted in Note 5, “Composition of Certain Balance Sheet Accounts.” Any upfront equipment payments are accounted for as lease incentives and recorded as deferred airborne lease incentives on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets and are recognized as a reduction of the cost of service revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the agreement with the airline. We recognized $3.1 million and $5.7 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and $1.8 million and $3.3 million for the comparable prior year periods, respectively, as a reduction to our cost of service revenue in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2014, deferred airborne lease incentives of $10.6 million and $61.5 million are included in current and non-current liabilities, respectively, in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. As of December 31, 2013, deferred airborne lease incentives of $9.0 million and $53.0 million are included in current and non-current liabilities, respectively, in our condensed consolidated balance sheet.

The revenue share paid to the airlines represents an operating lease payment and is deemed to be contingent rental payments, as the payments due to each airline are based on a percentage of our CA-NA and CA-ROW service revenue generated from that airline’s passengers, which is unknown until realized. As such, we cannot estimate the lease payments due to an airline at the commencement of our contract with such airline. Rental expense related to the arrangements with commercial airlines included in cost of service revenue is primarily comprised of these revenue share payments offset by the amortization of the deferred airborne lease incentives discussed above. Such rental expenses totaled a net charge of $9.9 million and $19.8 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and $8.3 million and $15.4 million, respectively, for the comparable prior year periods.

One contract with one of our airline partners requires us to provide our airline partner with a cash rebate of $1.8 million in June 2014 and, if our service is available on a specified number of aircraft in such airline partner’s fleet on the preceding December 31, in June of each year from 2015 through 2023. The annual cash rebate payment as of June 30, 2014 has yet to be made.

Leases and Cell Site Contracts — We have lease agreements relating to certain facilities and equipment, which are considered operating leases. Rent expense for such operating leases was $2.3 million and $4.0 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and $1.5 million and $2.8 million, respectively, for the comparable prior year periods. Additionally, we have operating leases with wireless service providers for tower space and base station capacity on a volume usage basis (“cell site leases”), some of which provide for minimum annual payments. Our cell site leases generally provide for an initial noncancelable term of up to five years with up to four five-year renewal options. Total cell site rental expense was $2.1 million and $4.3 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and $1.9 million and $3.6 million, respectively, for the comparable prior year periods.

Annual future minimum obligations for operating leases for each of the next five years and thereafter, other than the arrangements we have with our commercial airline partners, as of June 30, 2014, are as follows (in thousands):

Equipment Leases – We lease certain computer and network equipment under capital leases, for which interest has been imputed with annual interest rates that range from 5.9% to 13.4%. As of June 30, 2014 the computer equipment leases were classified as part of office equipment, furniture, and fixtures in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at a gross cost of $1.4 million. As of June 30, 2014 the network equipment leases were classified as part of network equipment in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at a gross cost of $5.3 million.

Commitments and Contingencies

Contractual Commitments - We have agreements with airborne equipment vendors under which we have remaining commitments to purchase $7.8 million in satellite based systems and development services as of June 30, 2014. Such commitments will become payable as we receive the equipment and are provided the development services.

We have agreements with vendors to provide us with transponder and teleport satellite services. These agreements vary in length and amount and commit us to purchase transponder and teleport satellite services totaling approximately $15.2 million in 2014 (July through December), $32.9 million in 2015, $33.1 million in 2016, $31.7 million in 2017, $15.2 million in 2018 and an amount less than $0.1 million in 2019.

Gogo Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued)

Damages and Penalties - Certain of our agreements with our airline partners may require us to incur additional obligations as a result of the occurrence of specified events, some of which may be out of our control. One contract covering the international fleet of one of our airline partners requires us to provide a credit or refund of up to $25 million to our airline partner if a competing airline installs satellite connectivity systems on a certain number of aircraft in its international fleet more quickly than we install our system on the same number of aircraft in our airline partner’s international fleet. The refund or credit will be eliminated in its entirety if we complete full installation of our airline partner’s international fleet by January 1, 2015, which date may be extended by up to six months as a result of certain excusable delays, and has been and will continue to be reduced proportionately from the maximum amount for every installation that we complete before the competitor achieves the target. The amount of any such refund or credit depends on a number of facts and circumstances, such as the pace at which we install satellite systems on aircraft delivered to us by our airline partner, as well as some that are not under our control, including, but not limited to, the number of installable aircraft made available to us from our airline partner’s international fleet, our competitor’s ability to install an equal or greater quantity of satellite systems on such competing airline’s international fleet and any current or future regulatory delays to the extent they are not excusable delays. Any refund or credit may only be applied toward the purchase of equipment or for a refund of amounts paid by the airline for previously purchased equipment. This contract also obligates us to pay our airline partner one-time liquidated damages in the range of $1 million to $5 million if we fail to obtain certain regulatory approvals related to the provision of satellite-based services by specified deadlines. One contract with another of our airline partners obligates us to pay our airline partner up to $6 million in penalties and installation and other costs if we fail to receive certain regulatory approvals or fail to begin the installation of equipment related to the provision of satellite-based service by specified deadlines.

We have entered into a number of agreements with our airline partners that require us to provide a credit or pay liquidated damages to our airline partners on a per aircraft, per day or per hour basis if we are unable to install our equipment on aircraft by specified timelines. The maximum amount of future credits or payments we could be required to make under these agreements is uncertain because the amount of future credits or payments is based on certain variable inputs, including the number of aircraft that are not installed on schedule, the length of time by which the installation is delayed, and the unit of time by which the delay is measured.

Indemnifications and Guarantees - In accordance with Delaware law, we indemnify our officers and directors for certain events or occurrences while the officer or director is, or was, serving at our request in such capacity. The maximum potential amount of future payments we could be required to make under this indemnification is uncertain and may be unlimited, depending upon circumstances. However, our Directors’ and Officers’ insurance does provide coverage for certain of these losses.

In the ordinary course of business we may occasionally enter into agreements pursuant to which we may be obligated to pay for the failure of performance of others, such as the use of corporate credit cards issued to employees. Based on historical experience, we believe that the risk of sustaining any material loss related to such guarantees is remote.

We have entered into a number of agreements, including our agreements with commercial airlines, pursuant to which we indemnify the other party for losses and expenses suffered or incurred in connection with any patent, copyright, or trademark infringement or misappropriation claim asserted by a third party with respect to our equipment or services. The maximum potential amount of future payments we could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is uncertain and is typically not limited by the terms of the agreements.

Carucel Investments, LP Litigation - On February 13, 2014, Carucel Investments, LP filed suit against us in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida alleging infringement of several patents in the field of mobile communication systems and seeking unspecified damages and injunctive relief. On July 28, 2014, the plaintiff filed an amended complaint naming Delta Air Lines, American Airlines and several Business Aviation dealers as additional defendants and adding an additional patent to the list of patents we and other defendants are allegedly infringing. We are obligated under our contracts to indemnify our co-defendants for defense costs and any damages arising from the suit. We have not accrued any liability related to this matter because, due to the early stage of the litigation, the strength of our defenses and a range of possible loss, if any, cannot be determined. Based on currently available information, we believe we have strong defenses and intend to defend this lawsuit vigorously, but the outcome of this matter is inherently uncertain and may have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Berkson Litigation - On February 25, 2014, Adam Berkson filed suit against us in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, on behalf of putative classes of national purchasers and a subclass of New York purchasers of our connectivity service, alleging claims that we violated New York and other consumer protection laws, as well as an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, by misleading consumers about recurring charges for our service. The suit seeks unspecified damages. We have not accrued any liability related to this matter because, due to the early stage of the litigation, the strength of our defenses and a range of possible loss, if any, cannot be determined. Based on currently available information, we believe we have strong defenses and intend to defend this lawsuit vigorously, but the outcome of this matter is inherently uncertain and may have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Airfone Acquisition – As disclosed in Note 7 “Airfone Acquisition” in our 2013 10-K, in connection with the Airfone Acquisition, we determined that Airfone failed to remit to the Universal Services Administration Company (“USAC”) certain FCC-mandated Federal Universal Service Fund (“FUSF”) fees. We therefore have caused Airfone to correct its past filings and to remit to USAC approximately $1.4 million in FUSF and related fees covering the period from January 1, 2008 through April 10, 2013. We also determined that Airfone billed its customers for FUSF fees in amounts that exceed the total amount remitted or owed to USAC. Due to the difference between the total amounts collected and the amounts that have been or will be remitted to USAC, Airfone also owed refunds to its customers. In June 2014 we refunded to Airfone’s customers amounts which we believe satisfy our obligations. In addition, Airfone may be subject to enforcement action by the FCC in connection with the delayed payments to USAC, which could result in, among other things, interest payments, penalties and fines. LiveTV has reimbursed us for the amounts paid to USAC and customers to date, and has agreed to indemnify us for any additional amounts due to Airfone’s customers or USAC as well as any interest, penalties and fines for which Airfone may be liable.

Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities

A three-tier fair value hierarchy has been established which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include:

•

Level 1 - defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

•

Level 2 - defined as observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and

•

Level 3 - defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

Long-Term Debt:

Our financial assets and liabilities that are disclosed but not measured at fair value include the Amended Senior Term Facility and the Alaska Facility, both of which are reflected on the consolidated balance sheet at cost, as defined in Note 8, “Long-Term Debt and Other Liabilities”. Based on market conditions as of June 30, 2014, the fair value of the Amended Senior Term Facility was approximately $253 million and the fair value of the Alaska Facility approximated its carrying value of $1.3 million (see Note 8, “Long-Term Debt and Other Liabilities”). These fair value measurements are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy since they are determined based upon significant inputs observable in the market including interest rates on recent financings by entities with credit profiles similar to ours. We estimated the fair values of the Amended Senior Term Facility and the Alaska Facility by calculating the upfront cash payment a market participant would require to assume these obligations. The upfront cash payment, excluding any issuance costs, is the amount that a market participant would be able to lend at June 30, 2014 to an entity with a credit rating similar to ours and achieve sufficient cash inflows to cover the scheduled cash outflows under the Amended Senior Term Facility and the Alaska Facility.

13.

Income Tax

The effective income tax rates for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 were (2.1%) and (1.9%), respectively, and (0.5%) and (0.8%), respectively, for the comparable prior year periods. Income tax expense recorded in each period was similar, with differences in pre-tax income causing the change in the effective tax rate. The difference between our effective tax rates and the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was primarily due to the recording of a valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets which is excluded from taxable income (loss).

Gogo Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued)

We are subject to taxation in the United States, Canada, various other countries and various states. With few exceptions, as of June 30, 2014, we are no longer subject to U.S. federal, state, foreign or local examinations by tax authorities for years before 2010.

We record penalties and interest relating to uncertain tax positions in the income tax provision line item in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations. No penalties or interest related to uncertain tax positions were recorded for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014. As of June 30, 2014, we did not have a liability recorded for interest or potential penalties.

We do not expect a change in the unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months.

On September 13, 2013, the IRS issued final regulations and re-proposed regulations that provide guidance with respect to (i) the treatment of material and supplies, (ii) capitalization of amounts paid to acquire or produce tangible property, (iii) the determination of whether an expenditure with respect to tangible property is a deductible repair or a capital expenditure and (iv) dispositions of MACRS property. The final regulations will be effective for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2014. We are reviewing the regulations, but we do not believe there will be a material impact on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

Business Segments and Major Customers

We operate our business through three operating segments: Commercial Aviation North America, or “CA-NA”, Commercial Aviation Rest of World, or “CA-ROW” and Business Aviation, or “BA”.

CA-NA Segment: Our CA-NA segment provides in-flight connectivity and wireless digital entertainment solutions to commercial airline passengers flying routes that generally begin and end within North America, which for this purpose includes the United States, Canada and Mexico.

CA-ROW Segment: Our CA-ROW business, which was established to provide in-flight connectivity and wireless digital entertainment solutions to passengers flying on foreign-based commercial airlines and international flights of North American based commercial airlines, is in the start-up phase as we launched commercial international connectivity service in March 2014. The routes included in our CA-ROW segment are those that begin and/or end outside of North America (as defined above) for which our international service will be provided.

BA Segment: Our BA business provides equipment for in-flight connectivity along with voice and data services to the business aviation market. BA services include Gogo Biz, our in-flight broadband service that utilizes both our ATG network and our ATG spectrum, and satellite-based voice and data services through strategic alliances with satellite companies. Customers include business aircraft manufacturers, owners, and operators, as well as government and military entities.

The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same as those described in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” in our 2013 10-K. Transactions between segments are eliminated in consolidation. There are no revenue transactions between segments. We currently do not generate a significant amount of foreign revenue. We do not segregate assets between segments for internal reporting. Therefore, asset-related information has not been presented.

Management evaluates performance and allocates resources to each segment based on segment profit (loss), which is calculated internally as net income (loss) attributable to common stock before interest expense, interest income, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and certain non-cash charges (including amortization of deferred airborne lease incentives, stock compensation expense, write off of deferred equity financing costs, and, for periods prior to the IPO, Class A and Class B Senior Convertible Preferred Stock return and accretion of preferred stock). Segment profit (loss) is a measure of performance reported to the chief operating decision maker for purposes of making decisions about allocating resources to the segments and evaluating segment performance. In addition, segment profit (loss) is included herein in conformity with ASC 280-10, Segment Reporting. Management believes that segment profit (loss) provides useful information for analyzing and evaluating the underlying operating results of each segment.

Major Customers and Airline Partnerships — During the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, no customer accounted for more than 10% of our consolidated revenue. One airline partner for the CA-ROW segment accounted for approximately 14% of consolidated accounts receivable as of June 30, 2014. No airline partner or customer accounted for more than 10% of our consolidated accounts receivable as of December 31, 2013.

In our CA-NA segment, revenue from passengers using the Gogo service while flying on aircraft owned by two of our airline partners accounted for approximately 41% and 40% of consolidated revenue for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared to approximately 41% for both of the prior year periods.

15.

Employee Retirement and Postretirement Benefits

Share-Based Compensation — We have two share-based employee compensation plans as of June 30, 2014. See Note 12, “Share-Based Compensation,” in our 2013 10-K for further information regarding these plans. For the six month period ended June 30, 2014, options to purchase 1,623,092 shares of common stock were granted, options to purchase 46,487 shares of common stock were forfeited, options to purchase 26,656 shares of common stock expired, and options to purchase 215,763 shares of common stock were exercised.

For the six month period ended June 30, 2014, 505,073 restricted share units were granted.

For the six month period ended June 30, 2014, 177,600 shares of restricted stock were granted, which vest in equal annual increments over a four-year period. These shares are deemed issued as of the date of grant, but not outstanding until they vest.

In June 2013 the Board of Directors approved the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”). The ESPP allows eligible employees to purchase our common stock through payroll deductions at a price equal to 90% of the lower of the fair market value of the stock as of the beginning or the end of three-month offering periods. Under the ESPP, 424,594 shares were reserved for issuance. No shares were issued under the ESPP during the six months ended June 30, 2014.

Share-based compensation totaled $2.2 million and $3.8 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and $0.9 million and $1.8 million, respectively, for the comparable prior year periods.

401(k) Plan - Under our 401(k) plan, all employees who are eligible to participate are entitled to make tax-deferred contributions, subject to Internal Revenue Service limitations. We match 100% of the employee’s first 4% of contributions made, subject to annual limitations. Our matching contributions were $0.6 million and $1.2 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and $0.5 million and $1.1 million, respectively, for the comparable prior year periods.

Gogo Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued)

Director Compensation — Our compensation plan for non-employee directors provides for annual compensation of $225,000 for the non-employee Chairman of the Board and $150,000 for all other non-employee directors. Such compensation is paid 1/3 in cash, 1/3 in stock options and 1/3 in deferred share units (“DSUs”). The plan also provides for additional annual cash compensation of $20,000 to the chair of the Audit Committee, $10,000 to the chair of the Compensation Committee and $5,000 to the chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The members of our Board of Directors have the option to elect to have their cash payments paid in DSUs if they elect. The plan provides for quarterly payments. For the six month period ended June 30, 2014, 11,395 DSUs were granted to our Board of Directors.

16.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development costs were $9.3 million and $17.7 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and $7.4 million and $15.1 million, respectively, for the comparable prior year periods. Research and development costs are reported as a component of engineering, design and development expenses in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

17.

Canadian ATG Spectrum License

On July 17, 2012, Industry Canada issued to our Canadian subsidiary a subordinate license that allows us to use the Canadian ATG spectrum of which SkySurf Canada Communications Inc. (“SkySurf”) is the primary licensee. On July 24, 2012 we entered into a subordinate license agreement (the “License Agreement”) with SkySurf and on August 14, 2012 the agreement commenced. The License Agreement provides for our exclusive rights to use SkySurf’s ATG spectrum licenses in Canada. The License Agreement has an initial term of ten years commencing on August 14, 2012 and, provided that the primary spectrum license agreement issued by Industry Canada to SkySurf remains in effect, is renewable at our option for an additional ten-year term following the initial expiration and thereafter for a further five-year term. We made a one-time payment of C$3.3 million, which was equivalent to approximately U.S. $3.3 million (“one-time payment”). The renewal of the primary spectrum license will depend upon the satisfaction by Gogo and SkySurf of certain conditions set forth in the license, including, without limitation, a network build-out requirement. The term of the License Agreement, including the initial ten-year term and any renewals, is contingent on the effectiveness and renewal of the primary spectrum license issued by Industry Canada to SkySurf on June 30, 2009, which expires on June 29, 2019. We pay SkySurf C$0.1 million, which is equivalent to U.S. $0.1 million, monthly during the initial ten-year term of the License Agreement. Additionally, we make variable monthly payments based on the number of cell sites in Canada and the number of Canadian-domiciled commercial aircraft on which we provide our service.

As the License Agreement is for our exclusive use of a license, which is considered a right to use an intangible asset and thus not property, plant, or equipment, the agreement is not considered a lease for accounting purposes. As such, we recorded the SkySurf one-time payment as an asset in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at the time of payment. As of June 30, 2014, the one-time payment had balances of $0.1 million included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and $2.7 million included in other non-current assets, respectively, in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. The one-time payment is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated term of the agreement of 25 years.

Amortization expense for the one-time payment for each of the next five years and thereafter is estimated to be as follows (in thousands):


	SkySurf
Years ending December 31,	Amortization
2014 (period from July 1 to December 31)	$	61
2015	$	122
2016	$	122
2017	$	122
2018	$	122
Thereafter	$	2,268

Amortization expense totaled less than $0.1 million and $0.1 million during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Gogo Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements – (Continued)

The monthly payments are expensed as incurred and totaled approximately $0.3 million and $0.6 million during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and $0.2 million and $0.5 million, respectively, for the comparable prior year periods.

Company Overview

Gogo is a leading global aero communications service provider. We operate through the following three segments: Commercial Aviation North America, or “CA-NA,” Commercial Aviation Rest of World, or “CA-ROW,” and Business Aviation, or “BA.”

Services provided by our CA-NA business include Gogo Connectivity, which allows passengers to connect to the internet from their personal Wi-Fi-enabled devices, Gogo Vision, which offers passengers the opportunity to enjoy a broad selection of in-flight entertainment options on their personal Wi-Fi enabled devices, and our Gogo Signature Services, which include a broad range of customizable, targeted content, advertising and e-commerce services. Such services are provided by the CA-NA business to commercial airline passengers flying routes that begin and end within North America, which for this purpose includes the United States, Canada and Mexico. Our CA-ROW business, which was established to provide in-flight connectivity and wireless digital entertainment solutions to passengers flying on foreign-based commercial airlines and international flights of North American based commercial airlines, is in the start-up phase as we launched commercial international connectivity service in March 2014. The routes included in our CA-ROW segment are those that begin and/or end outside of North America (as defined above) for which our international service will be provided. Our BA business sells equipment for in-flight telecommunications and provides in-flight internet connectivity and other voice and data communications products and services to the business aviation market. BA services include Gogo Biz, our in-flight broadband service that utilizes both our ATG network and our ATG spectrum, and satellite-based voice and data services through our strategic alliances with satellite companies.

Recent Developments

On July 30, 2014, the Borrowers entered into an Amendment to the Amended Senior Term Facility (as defined below in “—Liquidity and Capital Resources”). Prior to the Amendment, under the Amended Senior Term Facility we borrowed an aggregate principal amount of $248.0 million, of which $237.7 million was outstanding as of June 30, 2014. Pursuant to the Amendment, we borrowed an aggregate additional principal amount of $75.0 million. See below “—Liquidity and Capital Resources” for additional information regarding the Amendment.

Factors and Trends Affecting Our Results of Operations

We believe our operating and business performance is driven by various factors that affect the commercial airline and business aviation industries, including trends affecting the travel industry and trends affecting the customer bases that we target, as well as factors that affect wireless internet service providers and general macroeconomic factors. Key factors that may affect our future performance include:

•

the costs associated with implementing, and our ability to implement on a timely basis, our technology roadmap, including the need for additional cell sites in our ATG network, upgrades and installation of our ATG-4 technology, the roll-out of our satellite service, including hybrid technology solutions that are in part dependent on our satellite service, such as our GTO and 2Ku offerings, and the implementation of improvements to our network and operations as technology changes and we experience increased network capacity constraints;

•

the costs associated with and our ability to execute our international expansion, including modification to our network to accommodate satellite technology, compliance with applicable foreign regulations and expanded operations outside of the U.S.;

•

the costs associated with managing a rapidly growing company;

•

the pace and extent of adoption of the Gogo service for use on international commercial aircraft by our current North American airline partners and new international airline partners;

•

the number of aircraft in service in our markets, including consolidation of the airline industry or changes in fleet size by one or more of our airline partners;

•

the economic environment and other trends that affect both business and leisure travel;

•

the extent of customers’, airline partners’ and other aircraft operators’ adoption of our products and services, which is affected by, among other things, willingness to pay for the services that we provide, changes in technology and competition from current competitors and new market entrants;

•

the continued demand for connectivity and proliferation of Wi-Fi enabled devices, including smartphones, tablets and laptops;

Amounts for the six month period ended June 30, 2014 reflect GPO for the three month period ended March 31, 2014 as revised to reflect updated operational data that became available following the filing of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2014. GPO (in thousands), ARPP and connectivity take rate for the three month period ended March 31, 2014, as revised, are 71,270, $0.79, and 7.2%, respectively, as compared to the previously reported GPO (in thousands), ARPP and connectivity take rate of 74,668, $0.76, and 6.9%, respectively.

•

Aircraft online. We define aircraft online as the total number of commercial aircraft on which our ATG network equipment is installed and Gogo service has been made commercially available as of the last day of each period presented.

•

Average monthly service revenue per aircraft online (“ARPA”). We define ARPA as the aggregate service revenue for the period divided by the number of months in the period, divided by the number of aircraft online during the period (expressed as an average of the month end figures for each month in such period).

•

Gross passenger opportunity (“GPO”). We define GPO as the estimated aggregate number of passengers who board commercial aircraft on which Gogo service has been available during the period presented. We calculate passenger estimates by taking the maximum capacity of flights with Gogo service, which is calculated by multiplying the number of flights flown by Gogo-equipped aircraft, as published by Air Radio Inc. (ARINC), by the number of seats on those aircraft, and adjusting the product by a passenger load factor for each airline, which represents the percentage of seats on aircraft that are occupied by passengers. Load factors are provided to us by our airline partners and are based on historical data.

•

Total average revenue per passenger opportunity (“ARPP”). We define ARPP as revenue from Gogo Connectivity, Gogo Vision, Gogo Signature Services and other service revenue for the period, divided by GPO for the period.

•

Total average revenue per session (“ARPS”). We define ARPS as revenue from Gogo Connectivity divided by the total number of sessions during the period. A session, or a “use” of Gogo Connectivity, is defined as the use by a unique passenger of Gogo Connectivity on a flight segment. Multiple logins or purchases under the same user name during one flight segment count as only one session.

•

Connectivity take rate. We define connectivity take rate as the number of sessions during the period expressed as a percentage of GPO. Included in our connectivity take-rate calculation are sessions for which we did not receive revenue, including those provided pursuant to free promotional campaigns and, to a lesser extent, as a result of complimentary passes distributed by our customer service representatives or unforeseen technical issues. For the periods listed above, the number of sessions for which we did not receive revenue was less than 3% of the total number of sessions.

Key Components of Consolidated Statements of Operations

There have been no material changes to our key components of consolidated statements of operations and segment profit (loss) as described in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2013 10-K.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any obligations that meet the definition of an off-balance sheet arrangement, other than operating leases, which have or are reasonably likely to have a material effect on our results of operations. See Note 10, “Leases” to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures require us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs and expenses, and related exposures. We base our estimates and assumptions on historical experience and other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. In some instances, we could reasonably use different accounting estimates, and in some instances results could differ significantly from our estimates. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. To the extent that there are differences between our estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows will be affected.

We believe that the assumptions and estimates associated with long-lived assets, indefinite-lived assets and share-based compensation have the greatest potential impact on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Therefore, we consider these to be our critical accounting policies and estimates.

There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as compared to the critical accounting policies and estimates described in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” (“MD&A”) in our 2013 10-K, except that with the closing of our IPO in June 2013, the accounting policy for derivative liabilities and fair value derivative adjustments, as described in our MD&A, is no longer considered a critical accounting policy as the preferred stock which contained embedded derivatives is no longer outstanding.

Commercial Aviation North America:

CA-NA revenue increased to $62.1 million and $119.2 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with $49.8 million and $93.1 million, respectively, for the prior year periods primarily due to an increase in connectivity service revenue. Gogo Connectivity sessions totaled 5.5 million and 10.7 million in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with 4.6 million and 8.6 million, respectively, in the prior year periods. The increase in CA-NA connectivity service revenue was primarily due to increases in connectivity take rate and, to a lesser extent, ARPS, which resulted in increases in ARPA and ARPP. ARPA increased to $9,994 and $9,598 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with $8,441 and $8,078, respectively, for the prior year periods. ARPP increased to $0.75

and $0.77 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with $0.64 and $0.65, respectively, for the prior year periods. GPO increased to 82.7 million and 154.0 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with 77.2 million and 142.2 million, respectively, for the prior year periods, driven by a 3.8% increase in aircraft online to 2,058 as of June 30, 2014 from 1,982 as of June 30, 2013. The connectivity take rate increased to 6.7% and 6.9% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with 5.9% and 6.0%, respectively, for the prior year periods, primarily due to increased passenger adoption of the Gogo service. ARPS increased to $10.70 and $10.62 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with $10.38 and $10.34, respectively, for the prior year periods due primarily to pricing increases related to our single use and subscription products and changes to our product mix.

Our retail revenue increased to $56.2 million and $107.4 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with $44.6 million and $84.1 million, respectively, for the prior year periods, due to growth in both individual sessions and subscriptions. Revenue from individual sessions increased to $33.6 million and $63.5 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with $26.8 million and $50.2 million, respectively, for the prior year periods, and revenue from subscriptions increased to $22.6 million and $43.9 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with $17.9 million and $34.0 million, respectively, for the prior year periods. These increases were due to pricing increases and increased passenger adoption of the Gogo service. Our non-retail revenue increased to $2.9 million and $5.9 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with $2.8 million and $4.6 million, respectively, for the prior year periods. The increase during the six month period ended June 30, 2014 was due primarily to an increase in sponsorship, roaming and wholesale revenue, offset in part by a decrease in enterprise revenue.

A summary of the components of CA-NA’s service revenue for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 is as follows (in thousands, except for percent change):


	For the Three Months				% Change

Other service revenue includes content filtering, VoIP access for airlines’ flight crews, portal development services, operations oriented communications services, and partner co-branding and reseller arrangements.

Business Aviation:

BA revenue increased to $37.1 million and $75.7 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with $29.4 million and $55.6 million, respectively, for the prior year periods, due to increases in service and equipment revenue. BA service revenue increased to $17.1 million and $32.9 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with $12.6 million and $23.5 million, respectively, for the prior year periods, primarily due to more customers subscribing to our Gogo Biz service and price increases implemented during 2013. The number of ATG aircraft online increased 43.4% to 2,415 as of June 30, 2014 as compared with 1,684 as of June 30, 2013.

BA equipment revenue increased to $20.1 million and $42.8 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with $16.9 million and $32.1 million, respectively, for the prior year periods. The increase during the three month period ended June 30, 2014 was due to an increase in ATG equipment revenue partially offset by a decrease in satellite equipment revenue, while the increase during the six month period ended June 30, 2014 was due to an increase in both ATG and satellite equipment revenue. ATG equipment revenue

increased to $14.7 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2014, as compared with $10.4 million for the prior year period due to a 15.9% increase in the number of ATG equipment units shipped and new ATG product offerings including ATG 2000 for the turbo prop market and Gogo Text & Talk. Satellite equipment revenue decreased 16.2% to $5.2 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2014 as compared with $6.3 million for the prior year period due primarily to a 31.2% decrease in the number of satellite units shipped. ATG equipment revenue increased to $30.0 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2014, as compared with $19.5 million for the prior year period due to a 27.4% increase in the number of ATG equipment units shipped and new ATG product offerings including ATG 2000 for the turbo prop market and Gogo Text & Talk. Satellite equipment revenue increased 3.4% to $12.6 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2014 as compared with $12.2 million for the prior year period due primarily to shifts in product mix and pricing increases implemented during 2013 partially offset by a 15.0% decrease in the number of satellite units shipped.

Commercial Aviation Rest of World:

Our CA-ROW segment is in the start-up phase, as we initiated our international expansion efforts in the first quarter of 2012. In March 2014 we generated our first CA-ROW in-flight connectivity revenue from passengers flying international routes of one U.S.-based commercial airline partner, and we generated $0.3 million of service revenue during both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014. For the six month period ended June 30, 2013, our CA-ROW segment generated $1.3 million of service revenue primarily from portal development services provided to one international carrier, while no such activity occurred in 2014.

Cost of Service Revenue:

Cost of service revenue by segment and percent change for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were as follows (in thousands, except for percent change):


	For the Three Months				% Change
	Ended June 30,				2014 over

CA-ROW		16,118		4,268		277.6	%

Total	$	81,195	$	57,105		42.2	%

CA-NA cost of service revenue increased to $28.7 million and $56.0 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with $24.7 million and $46.3 million, respectively, for the prior year periods, due to an increase revenue share earned by our airline partners. The revenue share increase of $2.4 million and $5.4 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, over the prior year periods was driven by the increase in CA-NA service revenue for the current year. CA-NA cost of service revenue also increased due to an increase in network operations expenses (including network maintenance, backhaul and site leases) and increases in billing and transaction related expenses as a result of increased Gogo Connectivity sessions. These increases were partially offset by an increase in the amortization of our deferred airborne lease incentives. See Note 10, “Leases” in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding our deferred airborne lease incentives.

BA cost of service revenue increased to $4.5 million and $9.1 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with $3.7 million and $6.5 million, respectively, for the prior year periods. The increase in cost of service revenue was primarily due to an increase in the number of ATG units online to 2,415 as of June 30, 2014 from 1,684 as of June 30, 2013 and an increase in the average network utilization per ATG unit online, both of which resulted in an increase in ATG related network service costs associated with providing Gogo

Biz services that are charged to our BA segment. Our satellite service fees also increased for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 as compared with the prior year periods due to an increase in the number of subscribers of our satellite services to 5,241 as of June 30, 2014 from 5,105 as of June 30, 2013, as well as price increases for satellite services.

CA-ROW cost of service revenue increased to $8.4 million and $16.1 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with $2.8 million and $4.3 million, respectively, in the prior year periods due primarily to additional satellite transponders and teleports coming online throughout 2013 and 2014.

We expect cost of service revenue for CA-NA to increase in future periods due to increases in revenue share, billing and transaction expenses as our service revenue continues to increase. We expect the revenue share percentages under certain of our connectivity agreements to increase in future periods due to the occurrence of contractually stipulated triggering events that had yet to occur as of June 30, 2014. We currently estimate that such increases will amount to approximately 2% of the CA-NA segment’s service revenue. In addition, revenue share expense and average revenue share percentage may increase in future periods driven by growth in Gogo Vision and Gogo Signature Services. We believe that our network related expenses will increase to support the projected increased use and expansion of our network, which will include additional satellite coverage to support and/or supplement service in certain geographical areas. Additionally, we expect our maintenance costs to increase in future periods. However, a significant portion of our ATG network operations costs is relatively fixed in nature and does not fluctuate directly with revenue. As such, we expect total cost of service revenue in CA-NA to decline as a percentage of total service revenue as we realize efficiencies inherent in the scalability of our business.

We also expect to incur additional cost of service revenue in CA-ROW as we expand our business internationally, primarily related to our satellite service offerings but also due to additional revenue share, billing, transactional and network related expenses.

Cost of Equipment Revenue:

Cost of equipment revenue by segment and percent change for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were as follows (in thousands, except for percent change):


	For the Three Months				% Change
	Ended June 30,				2014 over
	2014		2013		2013
CA-NA	$	127	$	156		(18.6	%)
BA		8,500		7,799		9.0	%
CA-ROW		—		93		(100.0	%)

Total	$	8,627	$	8,048		7.2	%


	For the Six Months				% Change
	Ended June 30,				2014 over
	2014		2013		2013
CA-NA	$	1,114	$	386		188.6	%
BA		17,499		15,298		14.4	%
CA-ROW		—		93		(100.0	%)

Total	$	18,613	$	15,777		18.0	%

Cost of equipment revenue increased to $8.6 million and $18.6 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with $8.0 million and $15.8 million, respectively, for the prior year periods. The increase occurred primarily within the BA segment due to an increase in ATG units sold and an increase in personnel costs within the production, technical support and quality assurance groups to support the growth of the business and new product offerings. We expect that our cost of equipment revenue will vary with changes in equipment revenue.

Engineering, Design and Development Expenses:

Engineering, design and development expenses increased 28.0% and 21.4% to $15.8 million and $29.9 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with $12.3 million and $24.6

million, respectively, for the prior year periods, due primarily to an increase in the CA-ROW segment and to a lesser extent in the CA-NA segment. Engineering, design and development expenses related to CA-ROW increased to $5.7 million and $10.8 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with $3.5 million and $6.5 million, respectively, for the prior year periods, primarily due to increases in Supplemental Type Certificates (“STC”) related expenses for CA-ROW commercial aircraft and an increase in expenses related to the development of satellite systems. Engineering, design and development expenses for the CA-NA segment increased 20.1% and 7.2%, respectively, for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 as compared with the prior year periods due to the timing of costs incurred in connection with STC’s and the development of next generation products and technologies.

We expect engineering, design and development expenses to increase in future periods as we continue to execute our technology roadmap, expand internationally and develop next generation products and services.

Sales and Marketing Expenses:

Sales and marketing expenses increased 37.2% and 29.5% to $9.7 million and $17.7 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with $7.1 million and $13.7 million, respectively, for the prior year periods, due to increases in all three segments. Consolidated sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of total consolidated revenue increased to 9.7% for the three month period ended June 30, 2014, as compared with 8.9% for the prior year period, while consolidated sales and marketing expenses as a percentage of total consolidated revenue remained consistent at 9.1% for the six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. Sales and marketing expenses in the CA-NA segment increased 34.6% and 24.9% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, over the prior year periods, due to an increase in marketing related activities and personnel expense to support the growth of the business. Sales and marketing expenses for the CA-ROW segment increased 61.5% and 49.1% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, over the prior year periods due to building our international sales and marketing teams. Sales and marketing expenses in the BA segment increased 26.0% and 25.6% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, over the prior year periods due to an increase in personnel expense to support the growth of the business and new product launches.

We expect our sales and marketing expenses to increase in future periods as we increase advertising and promotional initiatives for new product offerings, focus on improving customer satisfaction, and expand programs to retain our existing users. We also expect sales and marketing expenses to increase in future periods as we hire additional personnel to support the international expansion. In addition, the commission component of sales and marketing expenses at BA will fluctuate with its equipment revenue. However, overall we expect consolidated sales and marketing expenses to decline slightly as a percentage of consolidated revenue.

General and Administrative Expenses:

General and administrative expenses increased 22.5% and 21.5% to $19.9 million and $37.4 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with $16.2 million and $30.8 million, respectively, for the prior year periods due to increases in all three segments. Consolidated general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total consolidated revenue decreased to 19.9% and 19.2% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, from 20.4% and 20.5%, respectively, for the prior year periods.

The increase in the CA-NA segment’s general and administrative expenses of 15.3% and 11.0% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, over the prior year periods was primarily due to an increase in personnel and payroll related expenses (including bonus and share-based compensation expense which are both included in general and administrative expense for all of CA-NA’s employees) to manage the growth of the business and increases in audit, tax, and other compliance related expenses as a result of becoming a public company, partially offset by a decrease in legal fees.

The increase in CA-ROW segment’s general and administrative expenses of 53.8% and 42.7% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, over the prior year periods was due primarily to an increase in personnel, travel and consulting expenses, all of which resulted from a ramp up in CA-ROW activities as we continued our international expansion.

The increase in the BA segment’s general and administrative expense of 32.4% and 62.8% for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, over the prior year periods was due primarily to an increase in

personnel and payroll related expenses (including bonus and share-based compensation expense which are both included in general and administrative expense for all of BA’s employees) to manage the growth of the business and an increase in rent expenses as we added additional office space. Additionally, general and administrative expenses for the six month period ended June 30, 2013 included a settlement in connection with the Hawker Beechcraft bankruptcy under which we recovered $0.4 million in the period, while no such recovery was recorded in the current year.

We expect our general and administrative expenses to increase in future periods as we expand our workforce to support the growth of our business both domestically and internationally. However, we expect general and administrative expenses to decrease as a percentage of consolidated revenue.

Segment Profit (Loss):

CA-NA’s segment profit increased 141.6% and 436.4% to $6.4 million and $12.3 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with segment profit of $2.7 million and $2.3 million, respectively, for the prior year periods. The increase in CA-NA’s segment profit for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 was due to increases in service revenue partially offset by increases in operating expenses, as discussed above.

BA’s segment profit increased 47.7% and 60.2% to $15.5 million and $32.0 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with $10.5 million and $19.9 million, respectively, for the prior year periods. The increase in BA’s segment profit for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 was due to increases in service revenue and equipment revenue, partially offset by increases in operating expenses, as discussed above.

CA-ROW’s segment loss increased 100.7% and 129.0% to $18.8 million and $35.7 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with $9.4 million and $15.6 million, respectively, for the prior year periods due to CA-ROW being in the start-up phase and our continued investment in this segment. The increase in CA-ROW’s segment loss was due primarily to the increases in operating expenses, as discussed above.

Depreciation and Amortization:

Depreciation and amortization expense increased 8.6% and 10.9% to $14.9 million and $30.6 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with $13.7 million and $27.6 million, respectively, for the prior year periods. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense was due to the increase in the number of aircraft outfitted with our ATG and ATG-4 equipment by our CA-NA business and the expansion of our ATG network. As noted above, we had 2,058 and 1,982 commercial aircraft online as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

We expect our depreciation and amortization expense to increase in future periods as we install our equipment on additional aircraft, install more expensive satellite-based equipment on aircraft (primarily to service the CA-ROW segment) and further expand our network.

Other (Income) Expense:

Other (income) expense and percent change for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were as follows (in thousands, except for percent change):


	For the Three Months						% Change
	Ended June 30,						2014 over

Other expense		63			—			n/a

Total	$	14,668		$	50,562			(71.0	%)

Other expense was $7.4 million and $14.7 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with $46.7 million and $50.6 million, respectively, for the prior year periods. The three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013 included fair value derivative adjustments associated with the liquidation preference in our previously outstanding Class A Senior Convertible Preferred Stock, which provided for a minimum return upon a Deemed Liquidation Event such as our Initial Public Offering which occurred in June 2013. We had no such activity in the current year. The decrease in interest expense during the three month period ended June 30, 2014 versus the prior year period was due to $3.0 million of fees incurred but not paid directly to the lenders in connection with the Amended Senior Term Facility during the three month period ended June 30, 2013, while the current year period included no such activity. See Note 9, “Interest Costs” in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information related to our interest expense.

We expect our interest expense to increase in 2014 due to higher average debt outstanding in 2014 than in 2013 as a result of the amendments to the Senior Term Facility that we entered into on April 4, 2013 and July 30, 2014. See Note 8, “Long-Term Debt and Other Liabilities,” in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information. Interest expense will also increase due to additional amortization of deferred financing costs. See “— Liquidity and Capital Resources” for additional information regarding the Amended Senior Term Facility.

Income Taxes:

The effective income tax rate for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 was (2.1%) and (1.9%), respectively, as compared with (0.5%) and (0.8%), respectively, for the prior year periods. Income tax expense recorded in each period was similar, with differences in pre-tax income causing the change in the effective tax rate. The difference between our effective tax rates and the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% for the three month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was primarily due to the recording of a valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets which is excluded from taxable income (loss).

We expect our income tax provision to increase in future periods to the extent we become profitable.

Non-GAAP Measures

In our discussion below, we discuss certain non-GAAP financial measurements, including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Loss, Adjusted Net Loss Per Share and Cash CAPEX as defined below. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA and Cash CAPEX for business planning purposes, including managing our business against internally projected results of operations and measuring our performance and liquidity. Management prepares Adjusted Net Loss and Adjusted Net Loss Per Share for investors, securities analysts and other users of our financial statements for use in evaluating our performance under our current capital structure. These supplemental performance measures also provide another basis for comparing period to period results by excluding potential differences caused by non-operational and unusual or non-recurring items. These supplemental performance measurements may vary from and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Loss, Adjusted Net Loss Per Share and Cash CAPEX are not recognized measurements under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP, and when analyzing our performance or liquidity, as applicable, investors should (i) evaluate each adjustment in our reconciliation to net loss attributable to common stock, and the explanatory footnotes regarding those adjustments, (ii) use Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Loss and Adjusted Net Loss Per Share in addition to, and not as an alternative to, net loss attributable to common stock as a measure of operating results, and (iii) use Cash CAPEX in addition to, and not as an alternative to, consolidated capital expenditures when evaluating our liquidity.

Definition and Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures

EBITDA represents net income (loss) attributable to common stock before income taxes, interest income, interest expense, depreciation expense and amortization of other intangible assets.

Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA adjusted for (i) fair value derivative adjustments, (ii) preferred stock dividends, (iii) accretion of preferred stock, (iv) stock-based compensation expense, (v) amortization of deferred airborne lease incentives and (vi) write off of deferred equity financing costs. Our management believes that the use of Adjusted EBITDA eliminates items that, management believes, have less bearing on our operating performance, thereby highlighting trends in our core business which may not otherwise be apparent. It also provides an assessment of controllable expenses, which are indicators management uses to determine whether current spending decisions need to be adjusted in order to meet financial goals and achieve optimal financial performance.

More specifically, we believe the exclusion of fair value derivative adjustments, Class A and Class B senior convertible preferred stock return and accretion of preferred stock from Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate because we do not believe such items are indicative of ongoing operating performance due to their non-recurring nature as a result of the conversion of all shares of preferred stock into shares of common stock upon consummation of our IPO in June 2013.

Additionally, we believe the exclusion of stock-based compensation expense from Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate given the significant variation in expense that can result from using the Black-Scholes model to determine the fair value of such compensation. The fair value of our stock options as determined using the Black-Scholes model varies based on fluctuations in the assumptions used in this model, including inputs that are not necessarily directly related to the performance of our business, such as the expected volatility, the risk-free interest rate, the expected life of the options and future dividends to be paid by the Company. Therefore, we believe the exclusion of this cost provides a clearer view of the operating performance of our business. Further, stock option grants made at a certain price and point in time do not necessarily reflect how our business is performing at any particular time. While we believe that investors should have information about any dilutive effect of outstanding options and the cost of that compensation, we also believe that stockholders should have the ability to consider our performance using a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes these costs and that management uses to evaluate our business.

We believe the exclusion of the amortization of deferred airborne lease incentives from Adjusted EBITDA is useful as it allows an investor to view operating performance across time periods in a manner consistent with how management measures segment profit and loss (see Note 14 “Business Segments and Major Customers” for a description of segment profit (loss) in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements). Management evaluates segment profit and loss in this manner, excluding the amortization of deferred airborne lease incentives, because such presentation reflects operating decisions and activities from the current period, without regard to the prior period decision or the form of connectivity agreements. See “—Key Components of Consolidated Statements of Operations—Cost of Service Revenue—Commercial Aviation North America” in our 2013 10-K for a discussion of the accounting treatment of deferred airborne lease incentives.

We believe it is useful to an understanding of our operating performance to exclude write off of deferred equity financing costs from Adjusted EBITDA because of the non-recurring nature of this charge.

We also present Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental performance measure because we believe that this measure provides investors, securities analysts and other users of our financial statements with important supplemental information with which to evaluate our performance and to enable them to assess our performance on the same basis as management.

Adjusted Net Loss represents net loss attributable to common stock before fair value derivative adjustments, Class A and Class B senior convertible preferred stock return and accretion of preferred stock. We present Adjusted Net Loss to eliminate the impact of such items because we do not consider those indicative of ongoing operating performance due to their non-recurring nature as a result of the conversion of all shares of preferred stock into shares of common stock in connection with our IPO in June 2013.

Adjusted Net Loss Per Share represents net loss attributable to common stock per share—basic and diluted, adjusted to reflect the number of shares of common stock outstanding as of June 30, 2014 under our current capital structure, after giving effect to the initial public offering and the corresponding conversion of shares of preferred stock outstanding. We present Adjusted Net Loss Per Share to provide investors, securities analysts and other users of our financial statements with important supplemental information with which to evaluate our performance considering our current capital structure and the shares outstanding following our IPO on a consistent basis.

Cash CAPEX represents capital expenditures net of airborne equipment proceeds received from the airlines. We believe Cash CAPEX provides a more representative indication of our liquidity requirements with respect to capital expenditures, as under certain agreements with our airline partners we are reimbursed for all or a substantial portion of the cost of our airborne equipment, thereby reducing our cash capital requirements.

Material limitations of Non-GAAP measures

Although EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Loss, Adjusted Net Loss Per Share and Cash CAPEX are measurements frequently used by investors and securities analysts in their evaluations of companies, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Loss, Adjusted Net Loss Per Share and Cash CAPEX each have limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for, or more meaningful than, amounts determined in accordance with GAAP.

Some of these limitations are:

•

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect interest income or expense;

•

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect cash requirements for our income taxes;

•

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect depreciation and amortization, which are significant and unavoidable operating costs given the level of capital expenditures needed to maintain our business;

•

Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect non-cash components related to employee compensation;

•

Adjusted Net Loss and Adjusted Net Loss Per Share do not reflect our preferred stock related components or the actual outstanding common shares of our then existing capital structure for the periods presented;

•

Cash CAPEX does not reflect the full extent of capital investments we have made in our operations; and

•

other companies in our or related industries may calculate these measures differently from the way we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.

We have historically financed our growth and cash needs primarily through the issuance of common stock, non-convertible debt, senior convertible preferred stock, convertible debt, term facilities and cash from operating activities.

Senior Term Facility:

On July 30, 2014, Gogo Intermediate Holdings LLC, Aircell Business Aviation Services LLC (“ABAS”), and Gogo LLC, (the “Borrowers”) entered into an Amendment and Restatement Agreement (the “Amendment”) to the Amended Senior Term Facility. We refer to the Amendment and the Amended Senior Term Facility collectively as the “Amended and Restated Senior Term Facility.”

Prior to the Amendment, under the Amended Senior Term Facility we borrowed an aggregate principal amount of $248.0 million (the “Tranche B-1 Loans”), of which $237.7 million was outstanding as of June 30, 2014. Pursuant to the Amendment, we borrowed an additional principal amount of $75.0 million (the “Tranche B-2 Loans” and, together with the Tranche B-1 Loans, the “Loans”). We received net cash proceeds from the Tranche B-2 Loans of $72.6 million following the payment of debt issuance fees of $2.4 million.

See Note 8, “Long-Term Debt and Other Liabilities” in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Maturity; Prepayments

The credit agreement executed in connection with our Amended and Restated Senior Term Facility provides for mandatory prepayments and the ability to make optional prepayments. Based on historical and current expectations regarding cash flow generation, the credit agreement was structured to provide that any mandatory prepayments will be calculated based on the excess cash flows (as defined in the credit agreement) of ABAS only. This calculation is made at the end of each fiscal year beginning with the year ended December 31, 2013, with any required payments due no later than the 95^th day following the end of the applicable fiscal year, and is based on ABAS’ debt leverage ratio. A leverage ratio of 3.25x or higher will trigger a mandatory prepayment of 50% of excess cash flows for the year, a leverage ratio of 2.0x or higher but less than 3.25x will trigger a mandatory prepayment of 25% of excess cash flows for the year and a leverage ratio of less than 2.0x will not trigger any mandatory prepayment of excess cash flows. The amount of any required mandatory prepayments will be reduced by the amount of any optional prepayments made during the applicable fiscal year. In the event actual results or a change in estimates trigger the mandatory prepayment, such prepayment amount will be reclassified from non-current liabilities to current liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. We had no such mandatory prepayment classified as a current liability as of June 30, 2014.

We may voluntarily prepay the loans subject to conditions, prices and premiums as follows:

(i)

On and prior to December 21, 2015 we may prepay the loans at par plus (a) 3.0% of the principal amount of the loans prepaid and (b) a “make whole” premium based on a discounted present value of the interest and principal payments due on such prepaid loans through December 21, 2015;

(ii)

After December 21, 2015 but prior to December 21, 2016, we may prepay the loans at par plus 3.0% of the principal amount of loans prepaid;

(iii)

On and after December 21, 2016, we may prepay the loans at par.

Interest; Fees

The interest rates applicable to the Tranche B-2 Loans are based on a fluctuating rate of interest measured by reference, at ABAS’ option, to either (i) a London inter-bank offered rate adjusted for statutory reserve requirements (“LIBOR”) (subject to a 1.00% floor) plus an applicable margin of 6.50% per annum, or (ii) an alternate base rate (“Base Rate”) (subject to a 2.00% floor) plus an applicable margin of 5.50% per annum. The interest rates applicable to the Tranche B-1 Loans under the Amended and Restated Senior Term Facility, which remain unchanged from the interest rates applicable under the Amended Senior Term Facility, are based on a fluctuating rate of interest measured by reference, at ABAS’ option, to either (i) LIBOR (subject to a 1.50% floor) plus an applicable margin of 9.75% per annum, or (ii) Base Rate (subject to a 2.50% floor) plus an applicable margin of 8.75% per annum. We will pay customary fees in respect of the Amended and Restated Senior Term Facility.

We paid $19.6 million of loan origination fees and financing costs related to the Amended Senior Term Facility, all but $3.0 million of which has been accounted for as deferred financing costs. The $3.0 million of fees that were not accounted for as deferred financing costs were fees not paid directly to the lenders in connection with the amendment in April 2013 and were expensed to interest expense. See Note 8, “Interest Costs,” in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for additional details. Total amortization expense of the deferred financing costs was $0.9 million and $1.7 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with $0.8 million and $1.2 million, respectively, for the prior year periods. Amortization expense is included in interest expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2014, the balance of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the Amended Senior Term Facility was $11.3 million, which was included as a separate line in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Covenants

The Amended and Restated Senior Term Facility contains a number of covenants that, among other things, limit or restrict the ability of the borrowers and the guarantors to dispose of assets, incur or guarantee additional indebtedness, prepay certain subordinated indebtedness, modify certain terms of certain material agreements (including intercompany agreements), make dividends and other restricted payments, issue additional preferred stock, make investments (including a cap on investments in our international business during the term of the Amended and Restated Senior Term Facility), incur or maintain liens, make capital expenditures, engage in mergers and certain other fundamental changes, engage in certain transactions with affiliates, enter into sale-leaseback arrangements or enter into agreements restricting dividends or other distributions by subsidiaries to the borrowers or any of their subsidiaries.

Alaska Financing:

On November 2, 2010, we entered into a $4.1 million standby credit facility agreement (the “Alaska Facility”) with Alaska Airlines, Inc. (“Alaska Airlines”) to finance the construction of ATG network sites in Alaska. The Alaska Facility has a six-year term and an interest rate of 10% per annum, compounded and payable quarterly. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had $1.3 million and $1.5 million, respectively, outstanding under the Alaska Facility. No further draws can be made under the Alaska Facility and principal amounts outstanding are payable in quarterly installments until November 12, 2016, or can be prepaid at any time without premium or penalty at our option. The Alaska Facility is secured by a first-priority interest in our cell tower leases and other personal property located at the cell sites in Alaska.

Letters of Credit:

We maintain several letters of credit totaling $7.9 million and $5.4 million as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. Certain of the letters of credit require us to maintain restricted cash accounts in a similar amount, and are issued for the benefit of the landlords at our existing office locations in Itasca, Illinois; Bensenville, Illinois; and Broomfield, Colorado; our future office location in Chicago, Illinois; and our future location in Broomfield, Colorado.

Liquidity:

We believe that our near and long term liquidity needs will increase and that cash and cash equivalents on hand as of June 30, 2014, together with our other sources of cash, will be able to support our anticipated capital expenditures, as well as increased operating costs in connection with our international expansion. Although we can provide no assurances, we currently believe that cash and cash equivalents on hand (including the additional borrowings under the Amendment) should be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next twelve months, including upgrading certain aircraft operated by our airline partners to our ATG-4 service, costs related to international expansion and certain costs associated with satellite or other technologies. We have not generated positive cash flows on a consolidated basis, and our ability to do so will depend in large part on our ability to increase revenues in each of our three business segments. In addition, our ability to generate positive cash flows from operating activities and the timing of certain capital and other necessary expenditures are subject to numerous variables, such as the availability and costs associated with next-generation technologies and costs related to international expansion. We currently believe that cash on hand and, if necessary, additional equity financings or the incurrence of additional debt as permitted under the credit agreement governing our Amended and Restated Senior Term Facility, will be sufficient to meet our liquidity needs in the longer-term, including our anticipated international expansion. The credit agreement governing the Amended and Restated Senior Term Facility contains covenants that restrict the ability of Gogo Intermediate Holdings LLC, ABAS and Gogo LLC to incur additional indebtedness generally, subject to certain enumerated exceptions, and to undertake certain equity financings through the issuance of preferred stock. As a result, we may be unable to finance growth of our business to the extent that our cash on hand and cash generated through operating activities prove insufficient and we are unable to raise additional financing through the issuance of common equity or through permitted sales of preferred equity or debt.

Cash flows provided by (used in) Operating Activities:

The following table presents a summary of our cash flows from operating activities for the periods set forth below (in thousands):


	For the Six Months
	Ended June 30,
	2014			2013
Net loss	$	(35,528	)	$	(70,466	)
Non-cash charges and credits		36,984			67,264
Changes in operating assets and liabilities		1,782			523

Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities	$	3,238		$	(2,679	)

For the six month period ended June 30, 2014, cash provided by operating activities was $3.2 million as compared with cash used in operating activities of $2.7 million for the prior year period. The principal contributors to the increase in operating cash flows were:

•

A $4.7 million increase in net loss adjusted for non-cash charges and credits that was due primarily to increases in the CA-NA and BA segments’ service revenues partially offset by increased spending in all three segments, as noted above under “—Results of Operations,” and

•

a $1.3 million increase in cash flows related to changes in operating assets and liabilities resulting from:

•

An increase in cash flows due to the following:

•

Changes in BA’s working capital (primarily within accounts receivable, inventory and accounts payable) due primarily to the increase in equipment sales, the timing of inventory receipts and the timing of payments;

•

Changes in CA-ROW deferred airborne lease incentives due to the commencement of airborne equipment installations for the segment at the end of 2013 and additional installations in the first six months of 2014; and

•

Payment of satellite service deposits in CA-ROW during 2013 while no such payments were made in 2014.

•

Partial offsets to the above due to decreases in cash flows from the following:

•

Changes in CA-NA’s working capital (primarily within accounts receivable, accounts payable, prepaid expenses and other current assets) due primarily to the increase in bonuses paid in the first six months of 2014 as compared with the first six months of 2013, the timing of payments to our vendors and the timing of collections from our airline partners;

•

Changes in CA-NA’s deferred airborne lease incentives due to a decrease in the number of installations as compared with the prior year and an increase in the amortization of deferred airborne lease incentives;

•

Changes in CA-ROW’s accounts receivable due to the commencement of airborne equipment shipments for the segment at the end of 2013 and additional shipments in the first six months of 2014; and

•

Changes in CA-NA’s accrued revenue share due to increases in outstanding accrued revenue during the first six months of 2013 as compared to the first six months of 2014.

We anticipate cash flows from changes in operating assets and liabilities to be positively impacted in 2014 by increases in deferred airborne lease incentives and incentives payable to us by landlords under certain facilities leases, which we estimate will range from $65 million to $85 million for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Cash flows used in Investing Activities:

Cash used in investing activities is primarily for capital expenditures related to airborne equipment, cell site construction, software development, and data center upgrades. See “—Capital Expenditures” below.

Also included in investing activities for the six month period ended June 30, 2013 was $9.3 million related to the Airfone acquisition. See Note 7, “Airfone Acquisition” in our 2013 10-K for additional information.

Cash flows provided by (used in) Financing Activities:

Cash used in financing activities for the six month periods ended June 30, 2014 was $2.0 million primarily due to payments under our debt facilities as we have higher average debt outstanding in 2014 as compared with 2013, offset in part by the exercise of stock options.

Cash provided by financing activities for the six month period ended June 30, 2013 was $277.2 million primarily due to proceeds from the IPO net of offering costs of $173.4 million, proceeds from the Amended Senior Term Facility of $113.0 million partially offset by $7.0 million of related debt issuance costs, and principal payments on the Senior Term Facility and Alaska Facility of $2.8 million.

Capital Expenditures

Our operations continue to require significant capital expenditures for technology, equipment, capacity expansion and upgrades. A substantial portion of the capital expenditures by the CA-NA segment is associated with installation and the supply of airborne equipment to our airline partners, which correlates directly to the roll out and/or upgrade of service to our airline partners’ fleets. Capital spending is also associated with the expansion of our ATG network and data centers and includes site acquisition, design, permitting, network equipment and construction costs. Capital expenditures related to data centers are for additional equipment such as servers and IP routers. We also capitalize software development costs related to network technology solutions, the Gogo platform and new product/service offerings.

Capital expenditures for the six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were $69.0 million and $66.1 million, respectively. The increase in capital expenditures was due to an increase in airborne equipment purchases for the CA-ROW segment and investments in our ATG network.

We anticipate an increase in capital spending in 2014 and estimate capital expenditures for the year ended December 31, 2014 will range from $170 million to $210 million as we increase the number of airborne equipment installations, execute our international expansion strategy, upgrade certain aircraft operated by our airline partners to ATG-4 and start the build out of our new office facilities. We expect our capital expenditures, net of deferred airborne lease incentives and landlord lease incentives as noted above, for the year ended December 31, 2014 to range from $105 million to $125 million.

Contractual Commitments: We have agreements with airborne equipment vendors under which we have remaining commitments to purchase $7.8 million in satellite based systems and development services as of June 30, 2014. Such commitments will become payable as we receive the equipment and are provided the development services.

Leases and Cell Site Contracts: We have lease agreements relating to certain facilities and equipment, which are considered operating leases. Rent expense for such operating leases was $2.3 million and $4.0 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared with $1.5 million and $2.8 million, respectively, for the prior year periods. Additionally, we have operating leases with wireless service providers for tower space and base station capacity on a volume usage basis (“cell site leases”), some of which provide for minimum annual payments. Our cell site leases generally provide for an initial noncancelable term of up to five years with up to four five-year renewal options. Total cell site rental expense was $2.1 million and $4.3 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared to $1.9 million and $3.6 million, respectively, for the prior year periods.

The revenue share paid to the airlines represents an operating lease payment and is deemed to be contingent rental payments, as the payments due to each airline are based on a percentage of our CA-NA and CA-ROW service revenue generated from that airline’s passengers, which is unknown until realized. As such, we cannot estimate the lease payments due to an airline at the commencement of our contract with such airline. Rental expense related to the arrangements with commercial airlines included in cost of service revenue is primarily comprised of these revenue share payments offset by the amortization of the deferred airborne lease incentive discussed above. Such rental expense totaled a net charge of $9.9 million and $19.8 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared to $8.3 million and $15.4 million, respectively, for the prior year periods. See Note 10, “Leases,” in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Indemnifications and Guarantees: In accordance with Delaware law, we indemnify our officers and directors for certain events or occurrences while the officer or director is, or was, serving at our request in such capacity. The maximum potential amount of future payments we could be required to make under this indemnification is uncertain and may be unlimited, depending upon circumstances. However, our Directors’ and Officers’ insurance does provide coverage for certain of these losses.

ITEM 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our exposure to market risk is currently confined to our cash and cash equivalents and our debt. We have not used derivative financial instruments for speculation or trading purposes. The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve our capital for the purpose of funding operations while at the same time maximizing the income we receive from our investments without significantly increasing risk. To achieve these objectives, our investment policy allows us to maintain a portfolio of cash equivalents and short-term investments through a variety of securities, including commercial paper, certificates of deposit, money market funds and corporate debt securities. Our cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 included amounts in bank checking account and liquid certificates of deposit with short term maturities. We believe that a change in average interest rates would not adversely affect our interest income and results of operations by a material amount.

The risk inherent in our market risk sensitive instruments and positions is the potential loss arising from interest rates as discussed below. The sensitivity analyses presented do not consider the effects that such adverse changes may have on the overall economic activity, nor do they consider additional actions we may take to mitigate our exposure to such changes. Actual results may differ.

Interest: Our earnings are affected by changes in interest rates due to the impact those changes have on interest income generated from our cash and cash equivalents and interest expense on our long-term debt. Our cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 included amounts in bank checking accounts and liquid certificates of deposit. We believe we have minimal interest rate risk; a 10% change in the average interest rate on our portfolio, would have reduced interest income and increased interest expense for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 by an immaterial amount.

Fixed Rate Debt: On June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had $1.3 million and $1.5 million aggregate principal amount of fixed rate debt outstanding under the Alaska Facility, respectively, which approximated fair value. If interest rates were 10% higher than the stated rate, the fair value of the Alaska Financing would have changed by an immaterial amount as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

Variable Rate Debt: On June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had $237.7 million and $240.8 million aggregate principal amount outstanding under the Amended Senior Term Facility, respectively. The Amended Senior Term Facility bears interest at variable rates measured by reference to either (i) an adjusted LIBO Rate (adjusted for statutory reserve requirements and subject to a floor of 1.5%), plus a borrowing margin of 9.75%, or (ii) an alternate base rate (subject to a floor of 2.5%), plus a borrowing margin of 8.75%. As a result, increases in interest rates would increase the cost of servicing our Amended Senior Term Facility and could materially reduce our profitability and cash flows. As of June 30, 2014, the LIBO Rate was more than 100 basis points below the floor described above. As a result, the fair value of the Senior Term Facility will not change until both the LIBO Rate and the applicable base rate exceeds the applicable floors. However, if the interest rate of 11.25% were to increase or decrease by 100 basis points, the fair value of the Amended Senior Term Facility would increase or decrease by approximately $6.2 million.

Inflation: We do not believe that inflation has had a material effect on our results of operations. However, there can be no assurance that our business will not be affected by inflation in the future.

Seasonality: Our results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of those for any other interim period of for the entire year because the demand for air travel, including business travel, is subject to significant seasonal fluctuations. We generally expect overall passenger opportunity to be greater in the second and third quarters compared to the rest of the year due to an increase in leisure travel offset in part by a decrease in business travel during the summer months and holidays. We expect seasonality of the air transportation business to continue, which may affect our results of operations in any one period.

Legal Proceedings

In May 2012, Innovatio IP Ventures, LLC filed suit in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois against a number of defendants, including Delta Airlines and AirTran Airways, for alleged infringement of several patents in the field of wireless local area networking. AirTran and Delta requested indemnification from us and we in turn sought indemnification from certain of our equipment vendors. In May 2014 the suits against AirTran and Delta were dismissed with prejudice.

On October 4, 2012, James Stewart filed suit against us in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California on behalf of putative classes of national purchasers and a subclass of California purchasers of our service, alleging claims for monopolization and exclusive dealing under the federal antitrust laws and California state antitrust and unfair practices laws related to the Gogo service offered through our domestic commercial airline partners. On June 12, 2014, the case was dismissed with prejudice.

On February 12, 2014, Go Go Techs, Inc. filed suit against us in the United States District Court for the Central District of California for alleged infringement of common law trademarks and alleged violations of federal and state unfair competition and other laws. On July 22, 2014, the case was dismissed with prejudice.

On February 13, 2014, Carucel Investments, LP filed suit against us in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida alleging infringement of several patents in the field of mobile communication systems and seeking unspecified damages and injunctive relief. On July 28, 2014, the plaintiff filed an amended complaint naming Delta Air Lines, American Airlines and several Business Aviation dealers as additional defendants and adding an additional patent to the list of patents we and other defendants are allegedly infringing. We are obligated under our contracts to indemnify our co-defendants for defense costs and any damages arising from the suit. We have not accrued any liability related to this matter because, due to the early stage of the litigation, the strength of our defenses and a range of possible loss, if any, cannot be determined. Based on currently available information, we believe we have strong defenses and intend to defend this lawsuit vigorously, but the outcome of this matter is inherently uncertain and may have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

On February 25, 2014, Adam Berkson filed suit against us in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, on behalf of putative classes of national purchasers and a subclass of New York purchasers of our connectivity service, alleging claims that we violated New York and other consumer protection laws, as well as an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, by misleading consumers about recurring charges for our service. The suit seeks unspecified damages. We have not accrued any liability related to this matter because, due to the early stage of the litigation, the strength of our defenses and a range of possible loss, if any, cannot be determined. Based on currently available information, we believe we have strong defenses and intend to defend this lawsuit vigorously, but the outcome of this matter is inherently uncertain and may have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In addition to the matters discussed above, from time to time we may become involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business. We cannot predict with certainty the outcome of any litigation or the potential for future litigation. Regardless of the outcome of any particular litigation and the merits of any particular claim, litigation can have a material adverse impact on our company due to, among other reasons, any injunctive relief granted, which could inhibit our ability to operate our business, amounts paid as damages or in settlement of any such matter, diversion of management resources and defense costs.
