Air Lease Corporation (ALC) (NYSE: AL) announces financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.

“Our second quarter results benefited from new aircraft deliveries exceeding our expectations, coupled with gains from higher volumes of aircraft sales. Lease rates continue to strengthen and demand for both aircraft leasing and sales remain robust, which we see continuing for the foreseeable future,” said John L. Plueger, Chief Executive Officer and President, and Steven F. Udvar-Házy, Executive Chairman of the Board.

Highlights

  • Took delivery of 19 aircraft from our orderbook, representing approximately $1.5 billion in aircraft investments, ending the period with approximately $30 billion in total assets.
  • Sold eight aircraft with a carrying value of approximately $600 million during the quarter, resulting in $45 million in gains from aircraft sales.
  • As of August 3, 2023, we had aircraft with a carrying value of approximately $1.7 billion in our sales pipeline, which includes the 19 aircraft with a carrying value of $900 million classified as flight equipment held for sale as of June 30, 2023 and 22 aircraft with a carrying value of $800 million subject to letters of intent.
  • Placed 100% of our contracted orderbook positions on long-term leases for aircraft delivering through the end of 2024 and have placed 58% of our entire orderbook.
  • Ended the quarter with $29.6 billion in committed minimum future rental payments consisting of $16.2 billion in contracted minimum rental payments on the aircraft in our existing fleet and $13.4 billion in minimum future rental payments related to aircraft on order.
  • During the quarter, we entered into approximately $900 million in new financings. We ended the quarter with liquidity of $7.6 billion.
  • On August 2, 2023, our board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.20 per share on our outstanding common stock. The next quarterly dividend of $0.20 per share will be paid on October 6, 2023 to holders of record of our common stock as of September 12, 2023.

Financial Overview

Our total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2023 increased by 21% to $672.9 million as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in total revenues was primarily driven by the continued growth in our fleet and an increase in sales activity. The increase in aircraft sales, trading and other revenue was primarily related to the sale of eight aircraft which generated approximately $45 million in gains. We did not sell any aircraft for the three months ended June 30, 2022.

Our net income attributable to common stockholders for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $122.0 million, or $1.10 per diluted share, compared to net income attributable to common stockholders of $105.9 million, or $0.95 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Our adjusted net income before income taxes during the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $175.9 million or $1.58 per adjusted diluted share, as compared to $154.5 million, or $1.39 per adjusted diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Net income attributable to common stockholders and adjusted net income before income taxes increased from the prior year period due to the growth of our fleet and increase in sales activity, partially offset by an increase in interest expense due to the increases in our composite cost of funds, increase in aircraft transition costs and increases in our aviation insurance expense in line with the growth of our fleet in the current year period.

Flight Equipment Portfolio

As of June 30, 2023, the net book value of our fleet increased to $25.5 billion, compared to $24.5 billion as of December 31, 2022. As of June 30, 2023, we owned 448 aircraft in our aircraft portfolio, comprised of 332 narrowbody aircraft and 116 widebody aircraft, and we managed 80 aircraft. The weighted average fleet age and weighted average remaining lease term of flight equipment subject to operating lease as of June 30, 2023 was 4.5 years and 7.2 years, respectively. We have a globally diversified customer base of 118 airlines in 63 countries as of June 30, 2023.

The following table summarizes the key portfolio metrics of our fleet as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains statements that constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Those statements appear in a number of places in this press release and include statements regarding, among other matters, the state of the airline industry, our access to the capital and debt markets, the impact of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the impact of sanctions imposed on Russia, aircraft and engine delivery delays, our aircraft sales pipeline and expectations, the impact of inflation, rising interest rates and other macroeconomic conditions and other factors affecting our financial condition or results of operations. Words such as “can,” “could,” “may,” “predicts,” “potential,” “will,” “projects,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates” and “should,” and variations of these words and similar expressions, are used in many cases to identify these forward-looking statements. Any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements, or industry results to vary materially from our future results, performance or achievements, or those of our industry, expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements. Such factors include, among others:

  • our inability to obtain additional capital on favorable terms, or at all, to acquire aircraft, service our debt obligations and refinance maturing debt obligations;
  • increases in our cost of borrowing or changes in interest rates;
  • our inability to generate sufficient returns on our aircraft investments through strategic acquisition and profitable leasing;
  • the failure of an aircraft or engine manufacturer to meet its delivery obligations to us, including or as a result of technical or other difficulties with aircraft before or after delivery;
  • our ability to recover losses related to aircraft detained in Russia, including through insurance claims and related litigation;
  • obsolescence of, or changes in overall demand for, our aircraft;
  • changes in the value of, and lease rates for, our aircraft, including as a result of aircraft oversupply, manufacturer production levels, our lessees’ failure to maintain our aircraft, rising inflation, appreciation of the U.S. Dollar, and other factors outside of our control;
  • impaired financial condition and liquidity of our lessees, including due to lessee defaults and reorganizations, bankruptcies or similar proceedings;
  • increased competition from other aircraft lessors;
  • the failure by our lessees to adequately insure our aircraft or fulfill their contractual indemnity obligations to us, or the failure of such insurers to fulfill their contractual obligations;
  • increased tariffs and other restrictions on trade;
  • changes in the regulatory environment, including changes in tax laws and environmental regulations;
  • other events affecting our business or the business of our lessees and aircraft manufacturers or their suppliers that are beyond our or their control, such as the threat or realization of epidemic diseases, natural disasters, terrorist attacks, war or armed hostilities between countries or non-state actors; and
  • any additional factors discussed under “Part I — Item 1A. Risk Factors,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and other SEC filings, including future SEC filings.

All forward-looking statements are necessarily only estimates of future results, and there can be no assurance that actual results will not differ materially from expectations. You are therefore cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we do not intend and undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking information to reflect actual results or events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Adjusted net income before income taxes (defined as net income/(loss) attributable to common stockholders excluding the effects of certain non-cash items, one-time or non-recurring items, such as write-offs of our Russian fleet, that are not expected to continue in the future and certain other items), adjusted pre-tax margin (defined as adjusted net income before income taxes divided by total revenues), adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes (defined as adjusted net income before income taxes divided by the weighted average diluted common shares outstanding) and adjusted pre-tax return on common equity (defined as adjusted net income before income taxes divided by average common shareholders' equity) are measures of operating performance that are not defined by GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income/(loss) attributable to common stockholders, pre-tax margin, earnings/(loss) per share, diluted earnings/(loss) per share and pre-tax return on common equity, or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted net income before income taxes, adjusted pre-tax margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes and adjusted pre-tax return on common equity are presented as supplemental disclosure because management believes they provide useful information on our earnings from ongoing operations.

 

Management and our board of directors use adjusted net income before income taxes, adjusted pre-tax margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes and adjusted pre-tax return on common equity to assess our consolidated financial and operating performance. Management believes these measures are helpful in evaluating the operating performance of our ongoing operations and identifying trends in our performance, because they remove the effects of certain non-cash items, one-time or non-recurring items that are not expected to continue in the future and certain other items from our operating results. Adjusted net income before income taxes, adjusted pre-tax margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes and adjusted pre-tax return on common equity, however, should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our operating results or cash flows as reported under GAAP. Adjusted net income before income taxes, adjusted pre-tax margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes and adjusted pre-tax return on common equity do not reflect our cash expenditures or changes in our cash requirements for our working capital needs. In addition, our calculation of adjusted net income before income taxes, adjusted pre-tax margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes and adjusted pre-tax return on common equity may differ from the adjusted net income before income taxes, adjusted pre-tax margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes and adjusted pre-tax return on common equity or analogous calculations of other companies in our industry, limiting their usefulness as a comparative measure.
