Air Lease Announces Second Quarter 2025 Results

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Air Lease (NYSE: AL) announces financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.

鈥淲e had a strong quarter bolstered by our new aircraft deliveries, healthy gains on sales, increasing portfolio yield, and significant Russia insurance recoveries. Demand for aircraft, both on the leasing and sales side, remains robust and bodes well for margin expansion,鈥� said John L. Plueger, Chief Executive Officer and President.

Second Quarter 2025 Results

The following table summarizes our operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 (in millions, except per share amounts and percentages):

Highlights

• During the second quarter, we took delivery of 12 aircraft from our orderbook, representing $892 million in aircraft investments, ending the period with 495 aircraft in our owned fleet and over $33 billion in total assets.
• We recognized a net benefit of $344 million from the settlement of insurance claims related to our former Russian fleet for the three months ended June 30, 2025. In addition, we expect to recognize an additional net benefit of approximately $60 million in the third quarter of 2025 from the settlement of additional insurance claims. As of August 4, 2025, we have entered into agreements to recover 104% of our Russian Fleet write-off that was recorded in March of 2022 at the onset of the Russian-Ukraine War.
• Sold four aircraft during the second quarter for $126 million in sales proceeds.
• We have $1.4 billion of aircraft in our sales pipeline¹, which includes approximately $524 million in flight equipment held for sale as of June 30, 2025 and approximately $851 million of aircraft subject to letters of intent.
• Placed 100% and 87% of our expected orderbook on long-term leases for aircraft delivering through the end of 2026 and 2027, respectively, and placed approximately 58% of our entire orderbook delivering through 2031.
• Ended the quarter with $28.8 billion in committed minimum future rental payments consisting of $19.3 billion in contracted minimum rental payments on the aircraft in our existing fleet and $9.5 billion in minimum future rental payments related to aircraft which will deliver during the last six months of 2025 through 2031.
• On July 30, 2025, our board of directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.22 per share on our outstanding Class A common stock. This quarterly dividend of $0.22 per share will be paid on October 8, 2025, to holders of record of our Class A common stock as of September 3, 2025.

Financial Overview

Our total rental of flight equipment revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2025 increased by approximately 11%, to $679 million, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase is primarily due to the continued growth of our fleet and higher end of lease revenue. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, we recognized approximately $20 million in end of lease revenue as compared to $2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024.

Our gain on aircraft sales and trading and other income for the three months ended June 30, 2025 decreased by 8%, to $53 million, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024, primarily driven by lower sales volume, partially offset by increases in management fee revenue and other income. We recorded $16.7 million in gains from the sale of four aircraft for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $39.8 million in gains from the sale of 11 aircraft for the three months ended June 30, 2024.

Our net income attributable to common stockholders for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was $374 million, or $3.33 per diluted share, as compared to $90 million, or $0.81 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Net income attributable to common stockholders increased from the prior year period primarily due to a net benefit of $344 million from the settlement of insurance claims with certain insurers related to aircraft detained in Russia, along with higher total revenues as discussed above. These were slightly offset by higher interest expense, driven by the increase in our composite cost of funds.

Adjusted net income before income taxes during the three months ended June 30, 2025 was $157 million, or $1.40 per adjusted diluted share, as compared to $137 million, or $1.23 per adjusted diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase is primarily due to an increase in our total rental of flight equipment revenue as discussed above, partially offset by higher interest expense, driven by the increase in our composite cost of funds, and a decrease in our gain on aircraft sales and trading and other income.

Flight Equipment Portfolio

As of June 30, 2025, the net book value of our fleet increased to $29.1 billion, compared to $28.2 billion as of December 31, 2024. As of June 30, 2025, we owned 495 aircraft in our aircraft portfolio, comprised of 357 narrowbody aircraft and 138 widebody aircraft, and we managed 53 aircraft. The weighted average fleet age and weighted average remaining lease term of flight equipment subject to operating lease as of June 30, 2025 was 4.8 years and 7.2 years, respectively. We had a globally diversified customer base comprised of 109 airlines in 55 countries as of June 30, 2025.

The following table summarizes the key portfolio metrics of our fleet as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024:
