AerSale Reports Third Quarter 2026 Results
Revenue excluding Flight Equipment sales grew 16.2% year over year, while adjusted EBITDA margin fell to 9.3% from 13.3%.
Sentiment and the balance of points
Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.
Rhea-AI Summary
AerSale (ASLE) reported third-quarter 2026 revenue of $91.6 million, with growth in both operating segments but lower margins and a wider loss. Revenue rose 28.6% year over year. Net loss was $15.0 million versus $0.1 million, including a $13.4 million non-cash goodwill impairment charge. Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP earnings measure, fell to $8.6 million from $9.5 million.
Asset Management Solutions revenue rose 28.9%, while Technical Operations revenue increased 28.2%. Gross margin declined to 22.5% from 30.2%. A Boeing 737 aircraft sale and additional engine sales previously expected in the third quarter shifted to the fourth quarter. AerSale has commitments for a $35 million Boeing 737 sale to the U.S. Marshals Service and expects a stronger fourth quarter. Quarter-end liquidity was $23.1 million; operating activities used $42.7 million in cash year to date.
How this balance works
Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.
It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.
Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

We encourage investors to evaluate performance across multiple quarters and through the more recurring parts of our business: leasing, USM and MRO.
Nicolas Finazzo, Chief Executive Officer at AerSale, stated, “The initiatives we have undertaken since early 2025 to make inventory and Flight Assets ready for sale or lease, optimize our sales force, invest in technology, and complete major facilities expansion projects, are taking hold. As such, our third quarter operational results improved meaningfully over the second quarter. Five of our seven 757 freighters are now on lease. We are using advanced analytics to strengthen USM sales by rapidly identifying the most cost-efficient way to make USM ready for sale. In TechOps, we have similarly created advanced analytics that have identified the factors affecting output and profitability at Millington, Goodyear, and our Component MRO shops, which should improve the efficiency of our workforce and increase utilization of our available capacity.”
Mr. Finazzo continued, “We enter the fourth quarter with a well-defined Flight Equipment pipeline expected to close before year end. We have commitments for a

A live audio webcast will be available to the public on a listen-only basis at https://ir.aersale.com/news-events/events.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss), and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share. Adjusted net income (loss) is defined as net income (loss) excluding mark-to-market adjustments relating to our private warrants, share-based compensation expense, inventory write-offs, goodwill impairment, and other non-cash, non-recurring, or unusual items. AerSale defines adjusted EBITDA as adjusted net income (loss) excluding interest expense, net, depreciation and amortization, income tax (expense) benefit, and other non-cash, non-recurring, or unusual items. Adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share is adjusted net income (loss) divided by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the measurement period.
AerSale believes these non-GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to AerSale’s financial condition and results of operations. AerSale’s management uses certain of these non-GAAP measures to compare AerSale’s performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses and for budgeting and planning purposes. These non-GAAP measures should not be construed as an alternative to net income (loss), net income (loss) per diluted share or net income (loss) margin as an indicator of operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity (each as determined in accordance with GAAP).
You should review AerSale’s financial statements and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate AerSale’s business. Other companies may calculate adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss), or adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share differently, and therefore AerSale’s adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss), and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share measures may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
Reconciliations of net income (loss) and diluted earnings (loss) per share, the Company’s closest GAAP measures, to adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss), and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share, are outlined in the tables below following the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
End Notes
(1) Adjusted net income (loss), adjusted EBITDA and adjusted diluted (loss) earnings per share are non-GAAP measures. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” above and “Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net (Loss) Income and Adjusted Diluted (Loss) Earnings Per Share Reconciliation Table” at the end of this press release for a discussion of why we believe these non-GAAP measures are useful together with a detailed reconciliation of these measures to their most directly comparable GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) measures.
(2) Aircraft and engines held for lease refers to the financial statement line item Aircraft and engines held for lease, net within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, which is comprised of the cost of the assets net of accumulated depreciation.
(3) During the prior year period there were also adjustments for change in warrant liability, payroll taxes related to share-based compensation, facility relocation costs, and restructuring costs.

This press release includes “forward-looking statements”. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this press release may constitute forward-looking statements, and include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our strategic initiatives and the expected results and benefits thereto; our anticipated financial and operating performance; the expected operating capacity of our MRO facilities and demand for such services; the timing of the expected Boeing 737 sale; and changes to our liquidity. AerSale’s actual results may differ from their expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events.

The forward-looking statements in this press release are only predictions. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties described in the Risk Factors, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations sections of the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), and its other filings with the SEC, including its subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Moreover, we operate in an evolving environment. New risk factors and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for management to predict all risk factors and uncertainties.
Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made.
