NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

1. General

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PHI, Inc. and subsidiaries (“PHI” or the “Company”). In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal, recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial results for the interim periods presented. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 and the accompanying notes and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The Company’s financial results, particularly as they relate to the Company’s Oil and Gas operations, are influenced by seasonal fluctuations as discussed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007. Therefore, the results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that may be expected for a full fiscal year.

2. Segment Information

PHI is primarily a provider of helicopter services, including helicopter maintenance and repair services. We used a combination of factors to identify reportable segments as required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information” (“SFAS 131”). The overriding determination of our segments is based on how the chief operating decision-maker of our Company evaluates our results of operations. The underlying factors include customer bases, types of service, operational management, physical locations, and underlying economic characteristics of the types of work we perform.

A segment’s operating income is its operating revenues less its direct expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses. Each segment has a portion of selling, general and administrative expense that is charged directly to the segment and a portion that is allocated. Direct charges represent the vast majority of segment selling, general and administrative expenses. Allocated selling, general and administrative expense is based primarily on total segment costs as a percentage of total operating costs. Unallocated overhead consists primarily of corporate selling, general, and administrative expenses that we do not allocate to the reportable segments.

Air Medical operations are headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona, where we maintain significant separate facilities and administrative staff dedicated to this segment. Those costs are charged directly to the Air Medical segment, resulting in a disproportionate share of selling, general and administrative expenses compared to the Company’s other reportable segments.

Oil and Gas Segment. Our Oil and Gas segment provides helicopter services primarily for the major oil and gas production companies transporting personnel and/or equipment to offshore platforms in the Gulf of Mexico, Angola and the Democratic Republic of Congo. We currently operate 147 aircraft in this segment.

Operating revenue from the Oil and Gas segment is derived mainly from long-term contracts that include a fixed monthly rate for a particular model of aircraft, plus a variable rate for flight time. Most of our long-term contracts permit early termination by the customer generally without penalty. Operating costs for the Oil and Gas operations are primarily aircraft operations costs, including costs for pilots and maintenance personnel. Approximately 63% and 64% of our total operating revenue was generated by our Oil and Gas operations for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Air Medical Segment. Our Air Medical segment provides transport services as an independent provider of emergency medical services and, to a lesser extent, under contract with certain hospitals. We operate in 17 states with 85 aircraft that are specially outfitted to accommodate emergency patients, medical personnel and emergency medical equipment. For the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, approximately 35% and 34% of our total operating revenues were generated by our Air Medical operations, respectively.

As an independent provider, we bill for our services on the basis of a flat rate plus a variable charge per loaded mile, regardless of aircraft model. Revenues are recorded net of contractual allowances under agreements with the third party payors and estimated uncompensated care when the services are provided. Contractual allowances and uncompensated care are estimated based on historical collection experience by payor category. The main payor categories are Medicaid, Medicare, Insurance, and Self-Pay. Payor mix and changes in reimbursement rates are the factors most subject to sensitivity and variability in calculating our allowances. We compute an 18 month historical payment analysis of accounts paid in full, by category. The allowance percentages calculated are applied to the payor categories, and the necessary adjustments are made to the revenue allowance. The allowance for contractual discounts was $36.0 million and $31.9 million as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively. The allowance for uncompensated care was $18.3 million and $19.1 million as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively.

Provisions for contractual discounts and estimated uncompensated care are as follows:

																		Accounts
		Revenue																Receivable
		Quarter Ended								Six Months Ended
		June 30,								June 30,								June 30,
		2008				2007				2008				2007				2008				2007
Gross billings			100	%			100	%			100	%			100	%			100	%			100	%
Provision for contractual discounts			45	%			43	%			47	%			44	%			35	%			33	%
Provision for uncompensated care			11	%			12	%			10	%			11	%			18	%			21	%

Amounts attributable to Medicaid, Medicare, Insurance and Self Pay as a percentage of net Air Medical revenues are as follows:

		Quarter Ended								Six Months Ended
		June 30,								June 30,
		2008				2007				2008				2007
Medicaid			10	%			8	%			12	%			9	%
Medicare			17	%			14	%			17	%			14	%
Insurance			69	%			76	%			67	%			75	%
Self Pay			4	%			2	%			4	%			2	%

We also have a limited number of contracts with hospitals under which we receive a fixed monthly rate for aircraft availability and an hourly rate for flight time. Those contracts generate approximately 10% of the segment’s revenues.

Technical Services Segment. The Technical Services segment provides helicopter repair and overhaul services for flight operations customers that own their aircraft. Costs associated with these services are primarily labor, and customers are generally billed at a percentage above cost. This segment also conducts flight operations unrelated to the other segments, and we currently operate four aircraft for the National Science Foundation in Antarctica under this segment.

Approximately 2% of our total operating revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 were generated by our Technical Services operations.

Summarized financial information concerning our reportable operating segments for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 is as follows:

3. Commitments and Contingencies

Environmental Matters — We have an aggregate estimated liability of $0.2 million as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 for environmental remediation costs that are probable and estimable. We have

conducted environmental surveys of our former Lafayette facility, which we vacated in 2001, and have determined that limited soil and groundwater contamination exists at the facility. We have installed groundwater monitoring wells at the facility and periodically monitor and report on the contamination. In May 2003, we submitted a Louisiana Risk Evaluation/Corrective Action Plan (“RECAP”) Standard Site Assessment Report to the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (“LDEQ”) fully delineating the extent and type of contamination. In April, 2006 the Site Assessment was updated to include recent analytical data. LDEQ is reviewing the assessment report. Once LDEQ completes its review and reports on whether all contamination has been fully defined, a risk evaluation in accordance with RECAP will be submitted and evaluated by LDEQ. At that point, LDEQ will establish what cleanup standards must be met at the site. When the process is complete, we will be in a position to develop an appropriate remediation plan and determine the resulting cost of remediation. We have not recorded any estimated liability for remediation and contamination and, based upon the May 2003 Site Assessment Report, the April 2006 update and ongoing monitoring, we believe the ultimate remediation costs for the former Lafayette facility will not be material to our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Legal Matters — We have been named as a defendant in various legal actions that have arisen in the ordinary course of business and have not been finally adjudicated. In the opinion of management, the amount of the ultimate liability with respect to these actions will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity.

As previously reported, the Company is involved in Federal Court litigation in the Western District of Louisiana with the Office and Professional Employees International Union (“OPEIU”), the union representing domestic pilots, over claims of bad faith bargaining and issues relating to the return to work of striking pilots. Pilots continue to work under the terms and conditions of employment set forth in the final implementation proposals made by the Company at the end of collective bargaining negotiations in August 2006. A trial on strike-related matters is currently set to start on November 3, 2008. It is not possible to assess the outcome of that litigation, as these matters are still in the discovery stage. However, management is of the opinion that the Company’s claims and defenses have substantial merit.

Long-term Debt — The $200 million 7.125% Senior Notes mature April 15, 2013, and interest is payable semi-annually on April 15 and October 15. The notes contain restrictive covenants, including limitations on indebtedness, liens, dividends, repurchases of capital stock and other payments affecting restricted subsidiaries, issuance and sales of restricted subsidiary stock, dispositions of proceeds of asset sales, and mergers and consolidations and sales of assets. At June 30, 2008, the market value of the notes was approximately $188.5 million, based on quoted market indications. We were in compliance with the covenants applicable to these notes as of June 30, 2008.

We have a $50 million revolving credit facility with a commercial bank, which is scheduled to expire on September 1, 2010. As of June 30, 2008, we had no borrowings and $5.2 million in letters of credit outstanding under the facility. The facility includes covenants related to working capital, funded debt to net worth, and consolidated net worth. As of June 30, 2008, we were in compliance with these covenants.

Operating Leases — We lease certain aircraft, facilities, and equipment used in our operations. The related lease agreements, which include both non-cancelable and month-to-month terms, generally provide for fixed monthly rentals, and certain real estate leases also include renewal options. We generally pay all insurance, taxes, and maintenance expenses associated with these aircraft, and some leases contain fair value purchase options.

At June 30, 2008, we had approximately $188.3 million in aggregate commitments under operating leases of which approximately $11.3 million is payable through December 31, 2008, and a total of $22.2 million is payable over the twelve months ending June 30, 2009. Of the total lease commitments, $168.0 million

represents commitments for aircraft, and $20.3 million represents facility lease commitments, primarily for our facilities in Lafayette, Louisiana.

Purchase Commitments — At June 30, 2008, we had an order for six additional transport category aircraft at an approximate cost of $127.4 million with delivery dates throughout 2008 and 2009. We also had orders for 19 medium and light aircraft, six of these aircraft are planned for service in the Air Medical segment, with the remaining 13 aircraft planned for service in the Oil and Gas Segment, although certain of these may be assigned to the Air Medical segment as growth opportunities are identified. The total cost of these aircraft is $98.9 million and delivery dates are scheduled throughout 2008 and 2009. Included in other assets at June 30, 2008 is approximately $22.2 million of security deposits on aircraft.

4. Property and Equipment

Effective July 1, 2007, we changed the estimated residual value of certain aircraft from 40% to 54%. We believe the revised amounts reflect our historical experience and more appropriately match costs over the estimated useful lives and salvage values of these assets. The change in residual values of certain aircraft was based on our experience in sales of such aircraft and industry data which indicated that these aircraft were retaining on average a salvage value of at least 54% by model type. The effect of this change for the three months ended June 30, 2008 was a reduction in depreciation expense of $0.8 million ($0.5 million after tax or $0.03 per diluted share), and $1.6 million ($0.9 million after tax or $0.06 per diluted share) for the six months ended June 30, 2008.

5. Valuation Accounts

We have established an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, current market conditions, and other information. The allowance for doubtful accounts was approximately $0.1 million at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007. Revenues related to emergency flights generated by the Company’s Air Medical segment are recorded net of contractual allowances under agreements with third party payors when the services are provided. See Note 2 for additional information.

We have also established valuation reserves related to obsolete and excess inventory. The inventory valuation reserves were $7.8 million and $7.5 million at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively.

6. Employees

Union Related Matters — As previously reported, the Company is involved in Federal Court litigation in the Western District of Louisiana with the OPEIU, the union representing domestic pilots, over claims of bad faith bargaining and issues relating to the return to work of striking pilots. The pilots commenced a strike in September 2006, and a return to work process commenced January 2007 for those pilots who had not terminated their employment, and this was completed in April 2007. The pilots’ strike, however, affected operations through all of 2007. Pilots continue to work under the terms and conditions of employment set forth in the final implementation proposals made by the Company at the end of collective bargaining negotiations in August 2006.

A trial on strike-related matters is currently set to start on November 3, 2008. It is not possible to assess the outcome of that litigation, as these matters are still in the discovery stage. However, management is of the opinion that the Company’s claims and defenses have substantial merit.

Employee Incentive Compensation — In 2002, we implemented an incentive compensation plan for non-executive and non-represented employees. For calendar year 2007, the represented pilots were added to this plan as part of the final implementation proposals made by the Company at the end of the collective

bargaining negotiations in August 2006. The plan allows us to pay up to 7% of earnings before tax upon achieving a specified earnings threshold. During 2004, we implemented an executive/senior management plan for certain corporate and business unit management employees. Pursuant to these plans, we have accrued an estimated incentive compensation expense of $0.2 million and $0.8 million for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively. The Company also has a Safety Incentive Bonus. We have accrued $0.2 million and $0.4 million for the Safety Incentive Bonus for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2008.

The management incentive compensation plan was amended August 5, 2008, to include safety components, in addition to certain earnings targets as provided in the prior plan. For 2008, the amended plan provides a potential bonus of 33% of what the prior incentive compensation plan would provide, due to the inclusion of safety factors.

7. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157 beginning in its 2008 fiscal year and there was no material impact to its financial statements. SFAS No. 157 applies to all assets and liabilities that are being measured and reported on a fair value basis. SFAS No. 157 requires new disclosure that establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP, and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. This statement enables the reader of the financial statements to assess the inputs used to develop those measurements by establishing a hierarchy for ranking the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. The statement requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.

The following table summarizes the valuation of our short-term investments and financial instruments by the above SFAS No. 157 pricing levels as of the valuation dates listed:

		June 30, 2008
						Quoted market				Significant Other

The Company holds it short-term investments in a money market fund consisting mainly of government backed securities, which is classified as a short-term investment. Investments included in other assets consist mainly of multiple mutual funds that are highly liquid and diversified.

In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115.” SFAS No. 159 permits entities to elect to measure at fair value eligible financial instruments that are not currently measured at fair value. This election, which may be applied on an instrument by instrument basis, is typically irrevocable once made. SFAS 159 is effective for us as of January 1, 2008; however, we did not elect to measure any additional financial instruments at fair value as a result of this statement. Therefore, the adoption of SFAS No. 159 did not have an effect on our consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — An Amendment of ARB No. 51,” which establishes new accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. Specifically, SFAS No. 160 requires the recognition of a noncontrolling interest (minority interest) as equity in the consolidated financial statements and separate from the parent’s equity. The amount of net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest will be included in consolidated net income on the face of the income statement. SFAS No. 160 also includes expanded disclosure requirements regarding the interests of the parent and its noncontrolling interest. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008 and interim periods within those fiscal years and will be applied retrospectively to all noncontrolling interests including any that arose before the effective date. Early adoption is prohibited. Management does not currently expect that implementation of SFAS No. 160 will have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In March 2008 the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133,” which requires enhanced disclosures about an entity’s derivative and hedging activities. SFAS No. 161 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of and gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. SFAS 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. Management does not anticipate that implementation of SFAS No. 161 will have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles,” which identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Management does not anticipate that implementation of SFAS No. 162 will have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 163, “Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts.” SFAS No. 163 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. SFAS No. 163 requires that disclosures about the risk-management activities of the insurance enterprise be effective for the first period (including interim periods) beginning after issuance of this statement. Except for those disclosures, earlier application is not permitted. Management does not currently expect that implementation of SFAS No. 163 will have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.
