AerSale Q1 2026 revenue rises 7.4%, loss narrows

AerSale Corporation reported first quarter 2026 results with modest growth in sales and a sharper improvement in profitability metrics, though it remained unprofitable.

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

AerSale Corporation reported first quarter 2026 results with modest growth in sales and a sharper improvement in profitability metrics, though it remained unprofitable. Total revenue rose to $70.6 million, up 7.4% from $65.8 million a year earlier, largely from stronger engine and Boeing 757 freighter leasing activity and higher flight equipment sales.

Adjusted EBITDA more than doubled to $7.4 million, or 10.4% of revenue, compared with $3.2 million, or 4.8% of revenue, as more equipment went on lease and flight equipment sales increased. The reported net loss narrowed to $3.5 million from $5.3 million, and adjusted net income was roughly breakeven.

Asset Management Solutions revenue grew 10.0% to $43.1 million, helped by 18 engines and three B757 freighters on lease, while Technical Operations revenue rose 3.4% to $27.5 million on stronger on-airport MRO work. Gross margin slipped slightly to 26.7% from 27.3% due to start-up and training costs at expanded facilities and higher labor in Goodyear. Operating cash flow was negative $26.7 million as AerSale invested heavily in inventory, including aircraft, engines, and parts, and expanded its aircraft and engines held for lease.

Insights

Equity research analyst

AerSale grew leasing and cut losses, but cash outflows remained high.

AerSale delivered Q1 2026 revenue of $70.6 million, up 7.4% year over year, while narrowing its net loss to $3.5 million. Adjusted EBITDA rose to $7.4 million, or 10.4% of revenue, reflecting more engines and B757 freighters on lease and higher flight equipment sales.

Segment data shows the strategy shift toward recurring activities. Asset Management Solutions revenue climbed 10.0% to $43.1 million, and Technical Operations revenue increased 3.4% to $27.5 million, helped by on-airport MRO in Goodyear and the ramp-up in Millington under a long-term CRJ maintenance agreement. These expansions brought start-up and training costs that trimmed gross margin to 26.7%.

On the balance sheet, total assets reached $668.1 million by March 31, 2026, with aircraft and engines held for lease rising to $121.5 million. Operating cash flow was negative $26.7 million, mainly from a $29.9 million inventory build and working capital movements, funded by heavier use of the revolving credit facility, which increased to $137.8 million.

6 terms

Adjusted EBITDA financial

"Adjusted EBITDA1 in the first quarter of 2026 increased by $4.2 million to $7.4 million"

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.

used serviceable material (USM) financial

"includes leasing, used serviceable material (“USM”) and maintenance repair and overhaul (“MRO”) activities"

Pre-owned components or materials that have been inspected, tested, and certified as safe and functional for continued use; think of them as certified, recycled parts that pass quality checks before being reinstalled. Investors should care because relying on used serviceable material can lower replacement costs and improve margins, but it also affects regulatory compliance, warranty exposure and perceived reliability—factors that influence operating expenses, risk profile and long-term asset value.

maintenance repair and overhaul (MRO) financial

"continued growth in the engine leasing portfolio focused on high‑demand engine types and improved performance at ... MRO facilities"

Asset Management Solutions Segment (AMS) financial

"Asset Management Solutions Segment (“AMS”) revenue increased 10.0% to $43.1 million"

non-GAAP financial measures financial

"This press release includes non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss)"

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.

revolving credit facility financial

"Revolving credit facility | 137,796 | 110,053"

A revolving credit facility is a type of loan that a business can borrow from whenever it needs money, up to a set limit. It’s like having a credit card for companies—allowing them to borrow, pay back, and borrow again as needed, providing flexibility for managing cash flow or funding short-term expenses.

First Quarter 2026 Results of Operations

​

The Company’s revenue for the first quarter of 2026 was $70.6 million, representing a 7.4% increase compared to $65.8 million in the first quarter of 2025, primarily driven by increased engine and B757 freighter leasing activity. Adjusted EBITDA¹ in the first quarter of 2026 increased by $4.2 million to $7.4 million, or 10.4% of total revenue, representing an increase of 131.9% compared to $3.2 million, or 4.8% of total revenue, in the comparable prior year period. The increase in adjusted EBITDA¹ was mainly driven by more equipment on lease and flight equipment sales during the period.

​

As a reminder to investors, the Company’s revenue is likely to fluctuate from quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year based on the timing of flight equipment sales and therefore, performance should be monitored based on the more recurring aspects of our business, which includes leasing, used serviceable material (“USM”) and maintenance repair and overhaul (“MRO”) activities.

​

In the first quarter of 2026, flight equipment sales were $5.2 million and consisted of one engine, compared to $1.8 million from one engine sold in the comparable prior‑year period. Excluding flight equipment sales, revenue grew 2.2% as the Company continued to expand the more recurring parts of its business. The increase was due in part to greater leasing revenue from an expanded lease pool, including the deployment of three Boeing 757 freighter aircraft, as well as continued growth in the engine leasing portfolio focused on high‑demand engine types that are expected to remain strong during the lease period. The Company also saw improved performance at the Goodyear, Arizona and Millington, Tennessee on-airport MRO facilities as the Company filled previously unutilized hanger capacity. This was partially offset by lower USM and MRO parts sales, as well as lower revenue from our Roswell, New Mexico facility due to lower stored aircraft.

​

Nick Finazzo, Chief Executive Officer at AerSale, stated, “Our first quarter performance reflects continued progress in growing the more recurring parts of our business through increased leasing activity and disciplined execution across our platform. During the quarter, we commenced work at our Millington facility following the award of a long‑term, multi‑line regional airline maintenance agreement and at our expanded Aerostructures facility. These expansion projects

​

resulted in expected start‑up costs, which created modest margin pressure that we expect to normalize as volumes increase and operations mature.”

​

Mr. Finazzo continued, “We also continued to execute on our leasing strategy with the placement of an additional B757 freighter, ending the quarter with three aircraft on lease and one additional aircraft under letter of intent. With a strong inventory position and expanding capacity, we remain focused on monetizing our assets and delivering a more consistent earnings profile over time.”

​

Asset Management Solutions Segment (“AMS”) revenue increased 10.0% to $43.1 million during the first quarter of 2026 compared to $39.2 million in the first quarter of 2025. Excluding flight equipment sales, total revenue in the first quarter of 2026 increased 1.3% to $37.9 million from $37.5 million in the prior year, driven by increased leasing activity and favorable engine mix, partially offset by lower USM volume. The Company had 18 engines and three B757 freighter aircraft on lease in the current quarter, compared to 16 engines and one B757 freighter on lease in the prior year period.

​

Technical Operations (“TechOps”) revenue increased 3.4% to $27.5 million in the first quarter of 2026 compared to $26.6 million in the first quarter of 2025, driven primarily by higher revenue from on‑airport MRO operations. Revenue growth was led by increased storage work scope in Goodyear, Arizona and by the continued ramp‑up of operations in Millington, Tennessee in support for a recently awarded long term CRJ multi-line maintenance agreement. These increases were partially offset by lower MRO parts sales during the quarter.

​

Gross margin decreased to 26.7% for the first quarter of 2026 compared to 27.3% in the same period last year, as TechOps margins declined due to start‑up and training costs related to the CRJ lines in Millington and the expansion in Aerostructures. In addition, Goodyear incurred higher labor costs in the quarter as it ramped up labor in anticipation of demand during the remainder of the year.

​

Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $22.2 million in the first quarter of 2026 versus $24.6 million in the first quarter of 2025. AerSale incurred $1.8 million of share-based compensation expense in the first quarter of 2026 versus $1.2 million in the first quarter of 2025. The favorable cost reductions are a result of our efficiency initiatives that have reduced overall costs, as well as one-time severance charges incurred in the prior year period.

​

Loss from operations was $3.3 million in the first quarter of 2026 compared to $6.6 million in the first quarter of 2025.

​

Income tax benefit was $1.0 million in the first quarter of 2026, compared to $0.7 million in the first quarter of 2025. The Company’s effective tax rate was 22.6% in the first quarter of 2026 compared to 12.0% in the first quarter of 2025.

​

Net loss for the first quarter of 2026 was $3.5 million, compared to a net loss of $5.3 million in the prior year. During the first quarter of 2026, the Company recognized $1.8 million of share-based compensation expenses within payroll expenses, $1.6 million in non-cash inventory write-downs, and $0.1 million in facility relocation costs. Excluding these non-cash and unusual items and adjusted for tax, adjusted net income¹ was $0.1 million in the first quarter of 2026, compared to an adjusted net loss¹ of $2.7 million in the first quarter of 2025.

​

Diluted loss per share was $0.07 for the first quarter of 2026 compared to a diluted loss per share of $0.10 in the first quarter of 2025. Adjusted for the non-cash and unusual items noted above, adjusted diluted earnings per share¹ was $0.00 for the first quarter of 2026, compared to an adjusted diluted per share loss of $0.05 for the first quarter of 2025.

​

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. AerSale defines adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) excluding interest expense, depreciation and amortization, income tax expense (benefit), and other non-cash, non-recurring or unusual items. Adjusted net income (loss) is defined as net income (loss) excluding mark-to-market adjustments relating to our private warrants, stock-based compensation expense, inventory write-offs and other non-cash, non-recurring or unusual items. Adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share is adjusted net income 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) 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), or adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share measures may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

​

Reconciliations of net income (loss), the Company’s closest GAAP measure, 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 earnings (loss) per share are non-GAAP measures. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and “Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Basic/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) measure.

​

⁽²⁾ Aircraft and engines held for lease refers to the financial statement line item Aircraft and engines held for lease, net on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, which is comprised of assets’ cost net of accumulated depreciation.

Forward Looking Statements

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 anticipated financial performance, including anticipations regarding improved financial results as a result of our recently awarded long-term CRJ maintenance contract and greater demand for AerSale’s USM business; expectations regarding feedstock and commercial demand; our growth trajectory; the expected operating capacity of our MRO facilities and demand for such services; and the sufficiency of 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. Words such as “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “budget,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “believes,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” or the negative of these or other similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. 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. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and we qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements. Except as required by applicable law, we do not plan to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements contained herein, whether as a result of any new information, future events, changed circumstances or otherwise.
