Air Lease Corporation (ALC) (NYSE: AL) announces financial
results for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
“We’re pleased to report strong first quarter 2023 results,
which benefitted from robust fleet growth. Global air travel demand
continues to expand meaningfully with healthy airline yields, while
aircraft capacity remains constrained. The need for new
fuel-efficient commercial aircraft continues to rise, bolstering
the value of our orderbook positions and existing fleet. While our
deliveries exceeded expectations this quarter, we do foresee OEM
delivery delays persisting for several years ahead,” said John L.
Plueger, Chief Executive Officer and President, and Steven F.
Udvar-Házy, Executive Chairman of the Board.

of our Russian fleet, that are not expected to continue in the
future and certain other items. See note 1 under the Consolidated
Statements of Operations included in this earnings release for a

Highlights
- As of March 31, 2023, we had 437 aircraft in our owned fleet,
with a net book value of $25.7 billion, a weighted average age of
4.5 years and a weighted average lease term remaining of 7.1 years.
During the first quarter, we took delivery of 22 aircraft from our
orderbook, representing approximately $1.4 billion in aircraft
investments, ending the period with over $29 billion in total
assets.
- Placed 93% of our contracted orderbook positions on long-term
leases for aircraft delivering through the end of 2024 and have
placed 57% of our entire orderbook.
- Ended the year with $30.5 billion in committed minimum future
rental payments consisting of $16.3 billion in contracted minimum
rental payments on the aircraft in our existing fleet and $14.2
billion in minimum future rental payments related to aircraft on
order.
- In January 2023, we issued $700.0 million of 5.30% Medium-Term
Notes due 2028 and in March 2023, we completed the successful
inaugural $600.0 million issuance of 5.85% trust certificates due
2028 in a Sukuk financing. Our Sukuk issuance represents the first
ever offering of its kind into the Middle East market from a North
American corporate issuer and the largest Sukuk offering from a
U.S.-based borrower in history.
- In April 2023, with the support of 49 financial institutions,
we extended the final maturity of our $7.2 billion syndicated
unsecured revolving credit facility by one year to May 5,
2027.
- On April 28, 2023, our board of directors declared a quarterly
cash dividend of $0.20 per share on our outstanding common stock.
The next quarterly dividend of $0.20 per share will be paid on July
7, 2023 to holders of record of our common stock as of June 6,
2023.
Financial Overview
Our total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2023
increased by 6.6% to $636.1 million as compared to the three months
ended March 31, 2022. The increase in total revenues was primarily
driven by the continued growth in our fleet partially offset by a
net decrease in end of lease revenue. During the first quarter of
2023, we recognized $34.7 million in end of lease revenue from
lease terminations as compared to approximately $59.6 million in
end of lease revenue from the termination of our leasing activities
in Russia in the prior year period.
Our net income attributable to common stockholders for the three
months ended March 31, 2023 was $118.3 million, or $1.06 per
diluted share compared to net loss of $479.4 million, or net loss
of $4.21 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31,
2022. The increase was due to the growth of our fleet and the
effect of the write-off of our Russian fleet in the first quarter
of 2022. The increase was partially offset by an increase in
interest expense due to the increases in our composite cost of
funds, aircraft transition costs and insurance expense in the
current year period.
Our adjusted net income before income taxes during the three
months ended March 31, 2023 was $166.8 million or $1.50 per
adjusted diluted share as compared to $200.9 million or $1.76 per
adjusted diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2022.
Despite the continued growth of our fleet, the decrease in our
adjusted net income before income taxes for the three months ended
March 31, 2023 as compared to 2022 was mainly driven by lower end
of lease revenue recognized as discussed above and an increase in
interest expense, aircraft transition costs and insurance
expense.
Flight Equipment
Portfolio
As of March 31, 2023 the net book value of our fleet increased

portfolio, comprised of 323 narrowbody aircraft and 114 widebody
aircraft, and we managed 86 aircraft. The weighted average fleet
age and weighted average remaining lease term of our fleet as of
March 31, 2023 was 4.5 years and 7.1 years, respectively. We have a

- our ability to pursue insurance claims to recover losses
related to aircraft detained in Russia;
- obsolescence of, or changes in overall demand for, our

- changes in the value of, and lease rates for, our aircraft,

factors outside of our control;
- impaired financial condition and liquidity of our lessees,
including due to lessee defaults and reorganizations, bankruptcies

- increased tariffs and other restrictions on trade;
- changes in the regulatory environment, including changes in tax
laws and environmental regulations;
- other events affecting our business or the business of our
lessees and aircraft manufacturers or their suppliers that are

armed hostilities between countries or non-state actors; and
- any additional factors discussed under “Part I — Item 1A. Risk
Factors,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended

Adjusted net income before income taxes (defined as net
income/(loss) attributable to common stockholders excluding the
effects of certain non-cash items, one-time or non-recurring items,
such as write-offs of our Russian fleet, that are not expected to
continue in the future and certain other items), adjusted pre-tax
margin (defined as adjusted net income before income taxes divided
by total revenues), adjusted diluted earnings per share before
income taxes (defined as adjusted net income before income taxes
divided by the weighted average diluted common shares outstanding)
and adjusted pre-tax return on common equity (defined as adjusted
net income before income taxes divided by average common
shareholders' equity) are measures of operating performance that
are not defined by GAAP and should not be considered as an
alternative to net income/(loss) attributable to common
stockholders, pre-tax margin, earnings/(loss) per share, diluted
earnings/(loss) per share and pre-tax return on common equity, or
any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted net income before income taxes, adjusted pre-tax margin,
adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes and
adjusted pre-tax return on common equity are presented as
supplemental disclosure because management believes they provide
useful information on our earnings from ongoing operations.
Management and our board of directors use
adjusted net income before income taxes, adjusted pre-tax margin,
adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes and
adjusted pre-tax return on common equity to assess our consolidated
financial and operating performance. Management believes these
measures are helpful in evaluating the operating performance of our
ongoing operations and identifying trends in our performance,
because they remove the effects of certain non-cash items, one-time
or non-recurring items that are not expected to continue in the
future and certain other items from our operating results. Adjusted
net income before income taxes, adjusted pre-tax margin, adjusted
diluted earnings per share before income taxes and adjusted pre-tax
return on common equity, however, should not be considered in
isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our operating results
or cash flows as reported under GAAP. Adjusted net income before
income taxes, adjusted pre-tax margin, adjusted diluted earnings
per share before income taxes and adjusted pre-tax return on common
equity do not reflect our cash expenditures or changes in our cash
requirements for our working capital needs. In addition, our
calculation of adjusted net income before income taxes, adjusted
pre-tax margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share before income
taxes and adjusted pre-tax return on common equity may differ from
the adjusted net income before income taxes, adjusted pre-tax
margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share before income taxes and
adjusted pre-tax return on common equity or analogous calculations
of other companies in our industry, limiting their usefulness as a
comparative measure.
