Rhea-AI Filing Summary

AAR CORP. is reorganizing its business into four operating segments and plans to wind down its Legacy Commercial Programs unit over roughly three to four years.

The new segments are Parts Supply; Repair, Engineering, and Software; Government Solutions; and Legacy Commercial Programs. For the twelve months ended February 28, 2026, Legacy Commercial Programs generated $252.4 million in sales, a GAAP operating loss of $0.2 million, and adjusted operating income of $5.0 million, with net assets of about $160 million as of that date. Management states the business requires significant asset pools and no longer meets capital return thresholds. AAR expects periodic gains as it divests related assets and plans to redeploy employees to other growth areas. The company’s fiscal 2026 guidance and consolidated financial statements remain unchanged, and historical results are recast to the new structure for comparability.

Insights

AAR exits a low-return segment while keeping 2026 guidance intact.

AAR CORP. is realigning into four segments and gradually winding down its Legacy Commercial Programs business, which produced $252.4 million of sales but a small GAAP operating loss over the last twelve months to February 28, 2026.

Management cites high asset intensity and subpar capital returns, with net assets of about $160 million tied to this segment. They expect periodic gains as assets are sold and intend to redeploy staff into higher-growth initiatives, aiming for a simpler model with higher margins and returns.

The company affirms that fiscal 2026 guidance and consolidated financials are unchanged, so the move appears more strategic than near-term financial. Investors will likely focus on how quickly AAR converts these assets and whether segment margins improve under the new structure.

non-GAAP financial measures financial
"Adjusted sales, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA margin are “non-GAAP financial measures”"
Non-GAAP financial measures are numbers companies use to show their financial performance that exclude certain expenses or income. They help investors see how the company might perform without one-time costs or other unusual items, giving a different perspective from official reports. However, since they can be adjusted, they don’t always tell the full story and should be looked at alongside standard financial figures.
Adjusted EBITDA financial
"Adjusted EBITDA margin | 13.1 % | 12.4 % | 13.6 % | 17.1 %"
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.

The chief operating decision maker is the person or small group inside a company who has the authority to decide how to allocate resources and judge the performance of the business, effectively choosing which projects, products, or divisions get priority and funding. For investors, identifying this decision maker matters because their choices drive strategy, shape where profits and risks come from, and affect how management’s results and segment information should be interpreted—similar to knowing a ship’s captain when assessing navigation choices.

Item 7.01Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

On May 6, 2026, AAR CORP. (the “Company”) announced a change to its operating segments and the wind-down of its Commercial Programs business.

 

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) implemented changes in how he organizes the business, allocates resources, and assesses performance. Specifically, the business units within our Integrated Solutions segment have been realigned, resulting in the following changes:

 

·Combine our Government Programs activities and our Mobility business, previously reported as Expeditionary Services, into a new operating segment named Government Solutions;
·Re-position our software platform, including Trax and Airinmar, to our Repair & Engineering segment, which is renamed Repair, Engineering, and Software; and
·Legacy Commercial Programs, the remaining business unit within the Integrated Solutions segment, will be separately reported as its own operating segment.

 

Beginning with the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, we will report under this new structure using the following four operating segments:

 

·Parts Supply, primarily consisting of distribution of new parts and sales of used serviceable material, including aircraft, engine and airframe parts and components;
·Repair, Engineering, and Software, primarily consisting of our maintenance, repair, and overhaul services across airframes, or Airframe MRO, and components, or Component MRO, and our software platform, including Trax and Airinmar;
·Government Solutions, primarily consisting of our fleet management and operations of customer-owned aircraft, customized performance-based supply chain logistics programs in support of the U.S. Department of Defense, the U.S. Department of State and foreign governments and activities supporting the movement of equipment and personnel by the U.S. and foreign governments with sales derived from the engineering, design, integration, manufacture, and repair of pallets, shelters, and containers; and
·Legacy Commercial Programs, primarily consisting of power-by-the-hour and repair-by-the-hour component pool and repair support and consumable and expendable inventory programs for commercial airlines.

 

These changes will be initially reflected in our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending May 31, 2026.

 

The Company is issuing this Current Report on Form 8-K to provide investors with segment summary historical financial information that is consistent with its new operating segment structure. The schedules in Exhibit 99.1 furnished with this Current Report on Form 8-K provide certain recast historical unaudited summary financial information under our new operating segment structure for fiscal years 2024 and 2025 and for certain previously reported quarters in fiscal years 2025 and 2026. Copies of the Company’s related press release and supplemental slide presentation are furnished hereto as Exhibit 99.2 and Exhibit 99.3, respectively.

 

The information included in this Current Report on Form 8-K in no way amends or restates the Company's previously reported consolidated financial statements for any period and is presented for information purposes only. It does not change the Company's previously reported total assets, liabilities or shareholders' equity or its reported net income (loss) or earnings (loss) per share, nor does it reflect any subsequent information or events, other than as required to reflect the change in operating segments as described above. This information should be read in conjunction with the Company's previously filed reports.

 

 

 

 

Exhibit 99.1 includes non-GAAP historical unaudited summary financial information under our new operating segment structure for certain quarters in fiscal years 2025 and 2026. Adjusted sales, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA margin are “non-GAAP financial measures” as defined in Regulation G of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

 

We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are relevant and useful for investors as they illustrate our core operating performance unaffected by the impact of certain items that management does not believe are indicative of our ongoing and core operating activities. These non-GAAP financial measures also provide additional information that is useful to gain an understanding of the factors and trends affecting our business and provide a means by which to compare our operating performance against that of other companies in the industries we compete. These non-GAAP measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

 

The information in this Item 7.01 and Exhibit 99.1, Exhibit 99.2, and Exhibit 99.3 attached hereto shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

AAR announces segment realignment and wind-down of Commercial Programs business

 

Wood Dale, Illinois — AAR CORP. (NYSE: AIR), a leading provider of aviation services to commercial and government operators, MROs, and OEMs, announced today that beginning with the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2026, the Company will report under a new structure using the following four operating segments:

 

·Parts Supply remains unchanged from the prior structure, primarily consisting of new parts Distribution and used serviceable material.

 

·Repair, Engineering, and Software primarily consists of maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) services across airframe (Airframe MRO) and components (Component MRO), and AAR’s software platforms, including Trax, Aerostrat, and Airvoyant.

 

·Government Solutions primarily consists of AAR’s fleet management and operations of customer-owned aircraft and performance-based logistics programs (Government Programs), and AAR’s Mobility Systems activity previously reported as Expeditionary Services.

 

·Legacy Commercial Programs primarily consists of asset-heavy flight hour-based component repair programs for commercial airlines, previously reported within Integrated Solutions.

 

AAR also announced today that it intends to wind down its Legacy Commercial Programs business. For the last twelve months ended February 28, 2026, the Legacy Commercial Programs business contributed sales of $252.4 million, a GAAP operating loss of ($0.2) million, and adjusted operating income of $5.0 million. Net assets of the Legacy Commercial Programs segment as of February 28, 2026 were approximately $160 million.

 

“Our segment realignment reflects AAR’s continued focus on growth, margin expansion, and additional cash flow generation,” said John M. Holmes, AAR’s Chairman, President and CEO. “Legacy Commercial Programs requires significant asset pools and no longer meets our capital return thresholds. We anticipate that the wind-down of this segment will take approximately three to four years. During that timeframe, we expect the results will include periodic gains as we divest the assets that support these programs. We also plan to redeploy the talented team supporting these activities to other AAR growth initiatives. Once complete, we believe the wind-down of Legacy Commercial Programs will result in a more simplified business model with higher margins and improved returns on capital.”

 

 

 

 

The Company’s guidance for the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2026, ending May 31, 2026, is unchanged and not affected by the segment realignment or plans to wind down its Legacy Commercial Programs business.

 

Concurrently with this press release, the Company has furnished a Current Report on Form 8-K with a recast of comparable prior year segment financial information for fiscal years 2024 and 2025 and for certain previously reported quarters in fiscal years 2025 and 2026, along with a summary presentation that is posted on the Investors section of AAR’s corporate website. The Company’s consolidated balance sheets, income statements, and cash flows are not affected.

This press release may contain certain statements relating to future results, which are forward-looking statements as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, reflecting management’s expectations about future conditions, including the wind-down of the Company’s Legacy Commercial Programs business and anticipated benefits. Forward-looking statements may also be identified because they contain words such as ‘‘anticipate,’’ ‘‘believe,’’ ‘‘continue,’’ ‘‘could,’’ ‘‘estimate,’’ ‘‘expect,’’ ‘‘intend,’’ ‘‘likely,’’ ‘‘may,’’ ‘‘might,’’ ‘‘plan,’’ ‘‘potential,’’ ‘‘predict,’’ ‘‘project,’’ ‘‘seek,’’ ‘‘should,’’ ‘‘target,’’ ‘‘will,’’ ‘‘would,’’ or similar expressions and the negatives of those terms. These forward-looking statements are based on beliefs of management, as well as assumptions and estimates based on information currently available to management and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or those anticipated. For a discussion of these and other risks and uncertainties, refer to “Risk Factors” in AAR CORP.’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize adversely, or should underlying assumptions or estimates prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described. These events and uncertainties are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many are beyond management’s control. Management assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events, except as required by law.

FAQ

What segment changes did AAR (AIR) announce in this Form 8-K?

AAR is moving to four operating segments: Parts Supply, Repair, Engineering, and Software, Government Solutions, and Legacy Commercial Programs. The change reflects how management now organizes operations, allocates resources, and evaluates performance, and will first appear in results for the quarter ending May 31, 2026.

What is AAR’s Legacy Commercial Programs business and how has it performed?

Legacy Commercial Programs includes power-by-the-hour and repair-by-the-hour component pool and inventory programs for airlines. For the twelve months ended February 28, 2026, it generated $252.4 million in sales, a GAAP operating loss of $0.2 million, and adjusted operating income of $5.0 million.

How long will it take AAR (AIR) to wind down Legacy Commercial Programs?

Management currently anticipates the wind-down of Legacy Commercial Programs will take about three to four years. Over that period, they expect periodic gains as they divest assets supporting these programs and plan to redeploy the segment’s employees into other AAR growth initiatives.

Does the segment realignment affect AAR’s fiscal 2026 guidance?

AAR states that its guidance for the fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2026 remains unchanged. The segment realignment and planned wind-down of Legacy Commercial Programs do not alter consolidated balance sheets, income statements, cash flows, or previously issued financial guidance for fiscal 2026.

How large is Legacy Commercial Programs relative to AAR’s overall business?

For the twelve months ended February 28, 2026, Legacy Commercial Programs recorded $252.4 million in sales and held approximately $160 million of net assets. By comparison, AAR’s total sales for the year ended May 31, 2025 were $2,780.5 million across all segments.

Why is AAR winding down the Legacy Commercial Programs segment?

AAR’s CEO said Legacy Commercial Programs requires significant asset pools and no longer meets the company’s capital return thresholds. Management believes exiting this segment will simplify the business and, once complete, support higher margins and improved returns on capital across the remaining operations.
