CORAL GABLES, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--AerSale Corporation (Nasdaq: ASLE) (the “Company”) today reported results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023. The Company’s revenue for the third quarter of 2023 was $92.5 million compared to $51.0 million in the third quarter of 2022. Revenue for the third quarter of 2023 included $44.8 million of flight equipment sales compared to $2.7 million of flight equipment sales in the prior-year period. Flight equipment sales in the third quarter of 2023 consisted of seven engines and a P2F converted Boeing 757 aircraft, compared to two engines in the third quarter of 2022. This improvement was mainly the result of the pacing of flight equipment sales, which tend to occur at irregular intervals throughout the year evidenced by these fluctuations. As a reminder to investors, the Company’s revenues are likely to fluctuate from quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year due to the timing of flight equipment sales, and therefore progress should be monitored based on the volume of asset purchases and related sales.
GAAP net loss was $0.1 million in the third quarter of 2023, compared to GAAP net loss of $9.0 million in the prior year period. AerSale recognized a mark-to-market adjustment expense of $0.1 million related to the private warrant liability, $3.2 million of stock-based compensation expenses within payroll expenses, $2.7M recovery of inventory obsolescence, $0.3 million in relocation costs, and $0.3 million of secondary issuance costs during the third quarter of 2023. AerSale recognized a mark-to-market adjustment expense of $2.0 million related to the private warrant liability and $4.4 million of stock-based compensation expenses within payroll expenses, $0.4 million in relocation costs, and $0.4 million of secondary issuance costs during the third quarter of 2022. Excluding these non-cash and unusual items adjusted for tax, adjusted net income was $0.9 million in the third quarter of 2023 compared to adjusted net loss of $1.9 million in the third quarter of 2022.
Diluted loss per share was $0.00 for the third quarter of 2023 and $0.17 in the third quarter of 2022. Adjusted for the non-cash and unusual items noted above, adjusted diluted earnings per share was $0.03 for the third quarter of 2023 compared to adjusted diluted loss per share of $0.03 in the third quarter of 2022.
Asset Management Solutions (“Asset Management") revenue more than tripled to $65.1 million during the third quarter of 2023 from $20.6 million in the third quarter of 2022 resulting from the pacing of flight equipment sales. AerSale sold seven engines and a P2F converted Boeing 757 aircraft in the third quarter of 2023 compared to two engines in the third quarter of 2022. Used Serviceable Material (USM) revenue increased meaningfully from the year-ago quarter driven by growing demand for and availability of feedstock. Leasing revenue declined because of no aircraft and fewer engines available for lease.
TechOps revenue decreased 9.9% to $27.4 million in the third quarter of 2023 from $30.4 million in the third quarter of 2022, in part due to fewer customer aircraft in storage as compared to prior periods, as well as lower contributions from our aerostructures and landing gear facilities. This was partially offset by additional capacity dedicated to customer aircraft enabled by outsourcing the remaining P2F conversions of our Boeing 757s.
Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter of 2023 was $1.9 million compared to $(0.5) million in the third quarter of 2022. The improvement in adjusted EBITDA is primarily because of higher flight equipment sales consisting of seven engines and one aircraft during the period. Please see the non-GAAP reconciliation table at the end of this press release for additional details on adjusted EBITDA.
Year-to-date cash used in operating activities was $168.1 million mostly attributable to additional investments in feedstock expected to generate revenue and earnings growth in the fourth quarter of 2023 and into 2024. AerSale ended the quarter with $174.6 million of liquidity consisting of $3.2 million in cash and with available capacity of $171.4 million on our $180 million revolving credit facility, in which the facility can be expanded to $200 million.
Nicolas Finazzo, AerSale’s Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our third quarter results benefited from better volume, which was driven by greater flight equipment sales. While flight equipment sales for the quarter were below our internal projections, they were notably higher compared to the year-ago period. Outside of flight equipment sales which tend to fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter, our core business remained strong with increasing demand for, and increased availability of, used serviceable material (“USM”).”
Finazzo added, “The freight market has considerably weakened as some of the highest interest rates we have seen in recent years combined with tightening financial market conditions has dampened consumption activities and consumer appetite. This softening in the air cargo market has drawn out the sales cycle of our P2F converted Boeing 757 aircraft. We remain confident that we will monetize this inventory at appropriate margins given our multi-dimensional and purpose-built value extraction model, which enables us to achieve the highest risk adjusted rates of return across different cycles by allocating feedstock to the business unit (whole assets, leases, or USM parts) that can achieve those returns.”
Update on AerAware
AerSale has successfully completed all material components of the certification process conducted by the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for its Enhanced Flight Vision System “AerAware,” applicable to the Boeing 737NG aircraft. The remaining tasks relate to documentation review which is the final stage of the Supplemental Type Certificate (“STC”) certification process.
In connection with the anticipated issuance of the AerAware STC, the FAA has released its updated ratings of enhanced flight vision systems and has approved AerAware for a 50% visual advantage over what can be seen with the naked eye. This makes AerAware the first and only product approved by the FAA with this level of visual advantage and strengthens our value proposition to customers by enhancing safety and reducing weather-related operating costs by minimizing delays, fuel consumption, and carbon emissions.
Third Quarter 2023 Results of Operations
AerSale reported revenue of $92.5 million in the third quarter of 2023, which included $44.8 million of flight equipment sales consisting of seven engines and a P2F converted Boeing 757 aircraft. The Company’s revenue for the third quarter of 2022 was $51.0 million consisting of $2.7 million of flight equipment sales including two engines and no aircraft in the third quarter of 2022. Flight equipment sales may significantly vary quarter-to-quarter and AerSale believes the full-year analysis, rather than year-over-year quarterly comparisons, is a more appropriate measure of the Company’s progress.
Asset Management revenue rose to $65.1 million in the third quarter of 2023 from $20.6 million in the third quarter of 2022 resulting from an increase in flight equipment sales. USM parts sales also improved from the year-ago quarter because of higher demand for and availability of feedstock.
TechOps revenue fell 9.9% to $27.4 million in the third quarter of 2023 from $30.4 million in the year-ago period. The TechOps business was adversely impacted by fewer customer aircraft in storage as compared to prior periods and weaker contributions from our aerostructures and landing gear facilities. This was partially offset by additional capacity made available for customer aircraft by outsourcing the remaining 12 P2F converted Boeing 757 aircraft to third-party providers.
Gross margin was 25.4% in the third quarter of 2023 compared to 30.4% in the year ago period, driven by lower margins from the mix of flight equipment sales.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $25.4 million in the third quarter of 2023 compared to $24.0 million in the third quarter of 2022 primarily driven by higher AerAware development and facility expansion costs. AerSale incurred $3.2 million of stock-based compensation expenses in the third quarter of 2023 versus $4.4 million in the third quarter of 2022.
Loss from operations was $1.9 million in the third quarter of 2023 and loss from operations was $8.5 million in the third quarter of 2022.
Income tax benefit was $2.0 million in the third quarter of 2023 and $1.1 million in the third quarter of 2022.
GAAP net loss was $0.1 million in the third quarter of 2023, compared to GAAP net loss of $9.0 million in the prior year period. Adjusted for stock-based compensation, mark-to-market adjustment to the private warrant liability, recovery of inventory obsolescence, relocation costs, and secondary issuance costs, adjusted net income was $0.9 million in the third quarter of 2023. Adjusted for stock-based compensation and mark-to-market adjustment to the private warrant liability, relocation costs, and secondary issuance costs, adjusted net loss was $1.9 million in the third quarter of 2022.
Diluted loss per share was $0.00 for the third quarter of 2023 and $0.17 in the third quarter of 2022. Adjusted for the above-mentioned non-cash and unusual items, adjusted diluted earnings per share was $0.03 for the third quarter of 2023 compared to adjusted diluted loss per share of $0.03 in the third quarter of 2022.
Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter of 2023 was $1.9 million, compared to $(0.5) million in the third quarter of 2022. The growth in adjusted EBITDA was driven by greater high-margin flight equipment sales.
Martin Garmendia, AerSale’s Chief Financial Officer, said: “Compared to the year ago period, we benefited from the cadence of flight equipment sales this quarter. However, results for the quarter were below our internal projections as several flight equipment sales shifted into the fourth quarter, including the sale of a P2F converted Boeing 757 aircraft. In terms of the broader market, we continue to be impacted by a weaker freight market, which has prolonged the sales cycle of our remaining P2F converted Boeing 757s, as reflected in our guidance update. At the same time, we remain confident that our purpose-built model and excellent execution capabilities will enable us to drive and generate value for all our stakeholders over the next few quarters.”
Updated 2023 Guidance
AerSale now expects to generate revenue of $400 - $420 million and adjusted EBITDA of $40 - $45 million in 2023. This updated guidance continues to reflect softer demand in the freight market that is expected to spread out the sales cycle of our P2F converted Boeing 757 aircraft and continued supply chain issues that have delayed the availability of USM and flight equipment available for sale or lease. Of note, our revised guidance includes flight equipment sales that are scheduled to close by the end of the year, but which have not yet occurred, and could shift into the first quarter of 2024, due to the volume of transactions and tight time frame to close. This guidance for 2023 does not reflect potential sales of AerAware as the product is in its final stages of FAA approval.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss), and adjusted diluted earnings per share. AerSale defines adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) after giving effect to interest expense, depreciation and amortization, income tax expense (benefit), and other non-recurring or unusual items. Adjusted net income (loss) is defined as net income (loss) after giving effect to mark-to-market adjustments relating to our private warrants, stock-based compensation expense and other non-recurring or unusual items. Adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share also exclude these material non-recurring or unusual items.
AerSale believes these non-GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to AerSale’s financial condition and results of operations. AerSale’s management uses certain of these non-GAAP measures to compare AerSale’s performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses and for budgeting and planning purposes. These non- GAAP measures should not be construed as an alternative to net income (loss) or net income (loss) margin as an indicator of operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity (each as determined in accordance with GAAP).
You should review AerSale’s condensed consolidated financial statements, and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate AerSale’s business. Other companies may calculate adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, or adjusted diluted earnings per share differently, and therefore AerSale’s adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss), or adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share measures may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
Reconciliations of net income (loss), the Company’s closest GAAP measure, to adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss), and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share, are outlined in the tables below following the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Forward Looking Statements
This press release includes “forward-looking statements”. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this press release may constitute forward-looking statements, and include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our anticipated financial performance, including all statements set forth in the “Updated 2023 Guidance” section above such as expectations of revenue in the range of $400 - $420 million and adjusted EBITDA in the range of $40 - $45 million; our expectations that we will close on our remaining flight equipment sales by the end of the year; the anticipation that the 757 P2F conversion program is expected to be a strong contributor to the Company; anticipations regarding an increasingly favorable market for feedstock availability within AerSale’s USM business and greater demand for USM parts; expectations regarding feedstock, and our belief that we are well positioned to take advantage of the current market dynamic; our belief that we are well positioned to take advantage of asset availability; our growth trajectory; the expected operating capacity of our MRO facilities and demand for such services; expectations of increased capacity for third party work and revenue at our Goodyear, Arizona facility; the anticipated receipt and typical timeline of receipt from the FAA of an STC for our AerAware product; expectation that AerAware is a technology that will be broadly adopted and that sales of AerAware will be a meaningful contributor to long-term performance; and expected benefits from an improving backdrop in commercial aerospace, and end markets; AerSale’s actual results may differ from their expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Words such as “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “budget,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “believes,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” or the negative of these or other similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements in this press release are only predictions. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties described in the Risk Factors, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations sections of the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), and its other filings with the SEC, including its subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Moreover, we operate in an evolving environment. New risk factors and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for management to predict all risk factors and uncertainties.
Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements and we qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements. Except as required by applicable law, we do not plan to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements contained herein, whether as a result of any new information, future events, changed circumstances or otherwise.

__________________________
1 Adjusted net income (loss), adjusted EBITDA and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share are non-GAAP measures. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and “Adjusted EBITDA, Net Income and Diluted EPS Reconciliation Table” at the end of this press release for a discussion of why we believe these non-GAAP measures are useful and a detailed reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
2 A reconciliation of non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA guidance to net (loss) income, the most directly comparable GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) measure, has not been provided due to the lack of predictability regarding the various reconciling items such as the provision for income taxes and depreciation and amortization, which are expected to have a material impact on these measures and cannot be reasonably predicted without unreasonable efforts.
