AAR Corp. filings document material-event disclosures for an aerospace and defense aftermarket services company listed under common stock symbol AIR. Recent reports cover operating and financial results furnished on Form 8-K, segment realignment disclosures, material agreements, capital-structure information, and exhibits tied to press releases and supplemental presentations.
The filings also record governance matters such as officer appointments and compensation arrangements, along with formal disclosures related to business organization, reporting segments, and the company’s common stock.

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.
