MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY
"We delivered another strong quarter of significant year-over-year sales and earnings growth," said John M. Holmes, AAR's Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Sales were 20% higher than in the same quarter last year as demand remains elevated for our aftermarket services. Parts Supply sales increased 12%, driven by impressive gains in our new parts Distribution with both commercial and government activities. Our Repair & Engineering segment sales increased more than 53% year-over-year, with significant contributions from the Product Support acquisition as well as increased throughput within our Airframe MRO facilities. Integrated Solutions also posted meaningful earnings growth from both commercial and government programs as well as notable contributions from Trax."
Holmes continued, "We are particularly proud of the progress on EBITDA margin which expanded from 10.3% to 12.0% year-over-year. In addition to contributions from our Product Support acquisition, our internal initiatives to drive efficiency improvements continue to produce meaningful results. We are focused on further increasing our margins as we fully integrate the Product Support acquisition and drive additional efficiencies throughout the Company."
"Subsequent to the quarter, we announced several new business wins, including signing an exclusive agreement with Chromalloy to distribute their BELAC PW4000 PMA parts. We also added distribution support for select Unison parts under our Supplier Capabilities Contract with Defense Logistics Agency (DLA). These wins further validate our unique value proposition to both customers and suppliers as a leading independent distributor in the aviation aftermarket. Separately, and also subsequent to the quarter, we announced that Cathay Pacific selected Trax to be the maintenance operating system for the airline."

- Multi-year exclusive agreement with Chromalloy to distribute Parts Manufacturer Approval (PMA) turbine blades for the PW4000 engine through their wholly owned subsidiary, BELAC, LLC.
- Multi-year agreement with Cebu Pacific Air for CFM56 engine nacelle maintenance, repair and overhaul services for the airline's A320 fleet.
- Multi-year license agreement with Cathay Pacific for Trax software.
PORTFOLIO UPDATE
- Expected timing of the sale of our Landing Gear Overhaul business for $51 million is set for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025. The divestiture is part of the Company's strategy to optimize its portfolio.
THIRD QUARTER FISCAL YEAR 2025 RESULTS
Consolidated third quarter sales increased 20% to $678.2 million, compared to $567.3 million in the same quarter last year. This reflects a 22% increase in consolidated sales to commercial customers, primarily due to the Product Support acquisition and strong demand throughout the Company's Parts Supply segment. Sales to government customers increased 15% from the same period last year, primarily due to increased order volume for new parts Distribution activities. Sales to commercial customers were 72% of consolidated sales, compared to 70% in the prior year quarter.
Third quarter results include a pre-tax charge of $63.7 million associated with the recently announced divestiture of the Company's Landing Gear Overhaul business. As a result of this charge, the Company reported a net loss of $8.9 million, or $0.25 per share. For the third quarter of the prior year, the Company reported net income of $14.0 million, or $0.39 per diluted share. Adjusted diluted earnings per share in the third quarter of fiscal year 2025 were $0.99, compared to $0.85 in the third quarter of the prior year.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $61.3 million in the current quarter, compared to $77.0 million in the prior year quarter. The third quarter included the reversal of a legal charge of $11.1 million related to the Russian court judgment which AAR successfully appealed. Acquisition, amortization, and integration expenses were $5.3 million in the quarter, compared to $12.2 million in the prior year quarter.
Operating margins were 10.5% in the quarter, compared to 5.8% in the prior year quarter. Adjusted operating margin increased to 9.7% in the current year quarter from 8.3% in the prior year quarter, primarily as a result of growth in Repair & Engineering. Sequentially, our adjusted operating margin increased from 9.2% to 9.7%, driven by improved profitability in Parts Supply as well as Trax and government-related services in Integrated Solutions.
Net interest expense for the quarter was $18.1 million, compared to $11.3 million last year, primarily due to increased debt levels as a result of funding the Product Support acquisition. Average diluted share count increased from 35.2 million shares in the prior year quarter to 35.4 million shares in the current year quarter.
Cash flow used in operating activities was $18.7 million during the current quarter, compared to $20.4 million of cash provided in the prior year quarter. As a reminder, during the quarter, we paid the $56 million FCPA settlement which was a use of cash within operating activities. Excluding the accounts receivable financing program, cash flow used in operating activities was $15.0 million in the current quarter. As of February 28, 2025, net debt was $947.6 million and net leverage was 3.06x.
Holmes concluded, "We are proud of the sales growth and significant margin expansion we delivered this quarter. Demand for our services remains very high and we anticipate our sales growth to continue. Additionally, we expect further margin expansion through growth in new parts Distribution, Trax, Airframe MRO efficiencies and the realization of Product Support synergies. We have reduced our net leverage from 3.58x at the time of the Product Support acquisition to 3.06x one year later. We expect further deleveraging in our fourth quarter and throughout our fiscal year 2026. We believe our continued growth, margin expansion, and disciplined capital allocation will drive additional value to shareholders."

Adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted operating margin, adjusted cash provided by (used in) operating activities, adjusted EBITDA, 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, bridge financing fees, intangible asset amortization, integration costs, and compensation expense related to contingent consideration and retention agreements.
- Pension settlement charges associated with the settlement and termination of our frozen defined benefit pension plan.
- Legal judgments related to or impacted by the Russia / Ukraine conflict.
- Contract termination/restructuring costs 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 (loss) 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 investigation, settlement and remediation compliance costs, pension settlement charges, certain legal judgments, acquisition, integration, and amortization expenses from recent acquisition activity, and significant customer contract terminations.
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:
