AerSale Corporation (Nasdaq: ASLE) swings to Q2 2026 net loss
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
AerSale Corporation reported weaker second quarter 2026 results, with revenue of $70.9 million, down 33.9% from $107.4 million a year earlier, mainly because there were no Flight Equipment sales and lower used serviceable material volume. Asset Management Solutions revenue fell 51.3% to $37.1 million, while Technical Operations revenue grew 8.7% to $33.8 million.
Gross margin narrowed to 22.9% from 32.9%, and the company posted a net loss of $5.6 million versus net income of $8.6 million in 2025. Adjusted EBITDA declined to $2.2 million (3.1% of revenue) from $18.3 million (17.0%). Year-to-date, net cash used in operating activities was $33.5 million, driven by inventory investment, and liquidity totaled $34.0 million, including $2.2 million of cash and $31.8 million of revolver capacity. Management attributes the downturn largely to timing of Flight Equipment sales and continued investment ahead of anticipated maintenance and leasing demand.
