Forward Guidance
AerSale is ceasing its practice of providing numerical full year guidance due to the timing of revenue and operating results being inherently challenging. The Company will continue to provide as much qualitative detail as possible about opportunities and outcomes expected over future periods. AerSale has a bullish view about 2024 and future years performance which they are confident they can drive from the diversified AerSale platform.
Positive Outlook
- Company is pleased that the underlying business continues to show strong resilience and momentum
- Company anticipates that consolidated financial performance will improve substantially as they begin to close on delayed transactions and further drive ROI from feedstock acquisitions

- AerSale believes it is extremely well positioned to take advantage of the current market dynamic.
- AerSale believes it is well positioned to take advantage of asset availability.
Challenges Ahead
- Timing of the Company’s revenue and operating results is inherently challenging due to the large portion of revenue driven by the Asset Management division and especially as it relates to volatility in flight equipment sales.
