WOOD DALE, Ill., July 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- AAR CORP. (NYSE:AIR), the leading parts, repair, and software platform in the aviation aftermarket, reported today ﬁnancial results for the fourth quarter and ﬁscal year 2026 ended May 31, 2026.

FOURTH QUARTER FISCAL YEAR 2026 HIGHLIGHTS

(As compared to Q4 FY2025)

Sales of $928 million; increased 23%
GAAP diluted EPS of $1.27
Adjusted diluted EPS of $1.53; increased 32%
GAAP Net income of $51 million
Adjusted EBITDA of $116 million; increased 27%
Adjusted EBITDA margin increased from 12.4% to 12.5%

FISCAL YEAR 2026 HIGHLIGHTS

(As compared to FY2025)

Sales of $3.3 billion; increased 19%
GAAP diluted EPS of $4.86
Adjusted diluted EPS of $5.05; increased 29%
GAAP Net income of $188 million
Adjusted EBITDA of $401 million; increased 24%
Adjusted EBITDA margin increased from 11.8% to 12.1%

"Our momentum continued into the fourth quarter as we delivered another strong set of results. Total adjusted sales were up 26%, including 13% organically," stated John M. Holmes, AAR's Chairman, President and CEO. "Growth was driven by each of our key parts, repair, and software platform activities in the quarter, led by our Parts Supply segment which grew 39%. Within Parts Supply, new parts Distribution activity organic growth was 19%. Our Repair, Engineering, and Software segment reported 35% sales growth in the quarter driven by a significant increase in our Component MRO activities, higher volumes in our Airframe MRO facilities, and growth in recurring revenue at Trax."

"Our strong topline performance translated to an adjusted EBITDA increase of 27% in the quarter. We expanded our adjusted EBITDA margins from 12.4% to 12.5% year over year, despite the expected short-term dilutive impact of the HAECO Americas acquisition. Going forward, we expect further margin expansion as we shift our sales mix to higher margin offerings, complete the HAECO Americas integration, and continue to realize acquisition-related synergies.

"For the full Fiscal Year 2026, adjusted sales were up 20%, and organic adjusted sales grew 14%. Adjusted EBITDA increased 24% while adjusted EBITDA margins grew from 11.8% to 12.1%.

"Earlier in the fourth quarter we announced a new reporting structure consisting of four operating segments: Parts Supply; Repair, Engineering, and Software (RE&S); Government Solutions; and Legacy Commercial Programs. Along with the segment realignment we announced our intention to wind down the Legacy Commercial Programs business, reflecting our continued focus on growth, margin expansion, and additional cash flow generation. Total adjusted EBITDA margin from the combined Parts Supply, RE&S, and Government Solutions segments in the fourth quarter and full year was 13.0% and 12.7%, respectively.

"Cash flow performance in the quarter was also strong, helping us to continue to reduce our leverage. Adjusted cash from operations was $58 million in the quarter and $94 million for the full fiscal year, resulting in net leverage of 2.03x at the end of the fourth quarter. We are well within our target range of 2.0x to 2.5x, giving us flexibility to continue funding our strategic growth. Adjusted cash from operations as a percent of adjusted EBITDA was 50% for the fourth quarter and 24% over the last year.

Holmes concluded, "Our record Fiscal Year 2026 financial performance demonstrates that the strategic and operational changes we have made are creating a more durable, higher-growth, and higher-margin aviation aftermarket services platform. Over the last five years, we have grown adjusted EBITDA at a 37% CAGR while expanding adjusted EBITDA margins by an average of 100 basis points annually. Our execution has delivered industry leading turnaround times in our hangars, significant market share gains in distribution, and innovative new software products. Our recent acquisitions are also performing well, with integration efforts proceeding ahead of schedule. Together, these achievements have strengthened our balance sheet and increased our financial flexibility to continue investing in our platform. Our disciplined growth strategy has us well-positioned to continue creating long-term value for our employees, customers, and shareholders."

FOURTH QUARTER FISCAL YEAR 2026 RESULTS

Consolidated fourth quarter sales increased 23% to $928.0 million, compared to $754.5 million in the same quarter last year. Sales to commercial customers increased 31%, or $161 million, primarily due to double-digit organic growth across new parts Distribution within the Company's Parts Supply segment and the impact of the Company's acquisitions of HAECO Americas and ADI. Sales to government customers increased 5%, or $12 million, over the same period last year, primarily due to the impact of ADI's sales to government customers. Sales to commercial customers were 73% of consolidated sales, compared to 69% in the prior year quarter.

The Company reported net income of $50.7 million, or $1.27 per diluted share. For the fourth quarter of the prior year, the Company reported net income of $34.0 million, or $0.95 per share. Adjusted diluted earnings per share in the fourth quarter of ﬁscal year 2026 were $1.53, compared to $1.16 in the fourth quarter of the prior year.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $99.6 million in the current quarter, compared to $77.4 million in the prior year quarter. Acquisition, amortization, and integration expenses were $11.3 million in the quarter, compared to $0.3 million in the prior year quarter.

Operating margins were 8.6% in the quarter, compared to 9.7% in the prior year quarter. Adjusted operating margin increased to 10.6% in the current year quarter from 10.5% in the prior year quarter, primarily as a result of improved proﬁtability in the Company's government business.

Net interest expense for the quarter was $16.3 million, compared to $18.4 million last year. Average diluted share count increased from 35.6 million shares in the prior year quarter to 39.6 million shares in the current year quarter primarily due to the Company's equity offering in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026.

Cash ﬂow provided by operating activities was $55.3 million during the current quarter, compared to $51.4 million in the prior year quarter. As of May 31, 2026, net debt was $816.0 million and net leverage was 2.03x.

FISCAL YEAR 2026 RESULTS

Full Fiscal Year 2026 consolidated sales were $3.3 billion, an increase of 19% over Fiscal Year 2025 with growth primarily resulting from increased volumes in our Parts Supply segment and our HAECO Americas acquisition.

Operating margins were 8.4% for the full year, compared to 6.7% in fiscal year 2025. Adjusted operating margin increased to 10.2% in Fiscal Year 2026 from 9.6% in Fiscal Year 2025. The improved adjusted margins are primarily driven by growth in new parts Distribution.

Full Fiscal Year 2026 net income was $187.7 million, or $4.86 per diluted share. In Fiscal Year 2025, net income was $12.5 million, or $0.35 per share. Fiscal Year 2025 results included after-tax charges of $115.0 million associated with the sale of our Landing Gear Overhaul business and our FCPA settlement and related costs. Our adjusted diluted earnings per share was $5.05 in the current year, compared to $3.91 last year, reflecting the impact of our improved operating efficiency on higher sales volumes.

Sales to commercial customers were 72% of consolidated sales in the current year, compared to 71% in the prior year. Cash flow provided by operating activities was $98.7 million in Fiscal Year 2026. Excluding our accounts receivable financing program, our cash flow provided by operating activities was $94.3 million in Fiscal Year 2026.

Adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, organic adjusted sales growth, adjusted operating margin, adjusted cash flow used in operating activities, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, net debt, and net debt to adjusted EBITDA (net leverage) are "non-GAAP financial measures" as defined in Regulation G of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are relevant and useful for investors as they illustrate our core operating performance, cash flows, and leverage unaffected by the impact of certain items that management does not believe are indicative of our ongoing and core operating activities. When reviewed in conjunction with our GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliations, we believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide additional information that is useful to gain an understanding of the factors and trends affecting our business and provide a means by which to compare our operating performance and leverage against that of other companies in the industries we compete. These non-GAAP measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Our non-GAAP financial measures reflect adjustments for certain items including, but not limited to, the following:

Costs associated with U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act ("FCPA") matters that we self-reported to the U.S. Department of Justice and other agencies, including investigation costs and settlement charges.
Expenses associated with recent acquisition activity, including professional fees for legal, due diligence, and other acquisition activities, intangible asset amortization (including amortization of favorable lease assets classified within operating lease right-of-use assets), integration costs, bargain purchase gains, and compensation expense related to contingent consideration and retention agreements.
Legal judgments and reversals related to or impacted by the Russia/Ukraine conflict.
Contract termination costs and benefits are comprised of gains and losses that are recognized at the time of modifying, terminating, or restructuring certain customer and vendor contracts, including the impact from the U.S. government exercising their termination for convenience in the first quarter of fiscal year 2025 for our Mobility Systems business's new-generation pallet contract.
Losses related to our exit from our Indian joint venture, our Landing Gear Overhaul business, and our Composites manufacturing business, including legal fees for the performance guarantee associated with the Composites' A220 aircraft contract.

Adjusted EBITDA is net income before interest income (expense), other income (expense), income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, and items of an unusual nature including but not limited to business divestitures and acquisitions, FCPA settlement and investigation costs, certain legal judgments, acquisition, integration, and amortization expenses from recent acquisition activity, headquarters relocation activity, product line exits, and significant customer contract terminations.

The Company is not providing a reconciliation of forward-looking financial measures to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measure because the information is not available without unreasonable effort. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing and amount of certain items, such as, but not limited to, unusual gains and losses, the ultimate outcome of pending litigation, the impact and timing of potential acquisitions and divestitures, and other structural changes or their probable significance. Each of the adjustments has not occurred, are out of the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. For this reason, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information.

Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G of the Exchange Act, we are providing the following tables that reconcile the above-mentioned non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures:
