Miami, Florida – November 9, 2021- AerSale Corporation (Nasdaq: ASLE) (the “Company”) today reported results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021. The Company’s revenue for the third quarter was $73.3 million compared to $57.1 million in the third quarter of 2020. Revenue for the third quarter of 2021 included $27.4 million of flight equipment sales, and there were no flight equipment sales in the prior-year period.

Lower leasing revenue, primarily related to an end of lease payment recognized last year, partially offset the impact of flight equipment sales. The increase in Asset Management Solutions (AMS) revenue was somewhat moderated by a decline in TechOps revenue due to lower aircraft storage and related maintenance activities. Demand for passenger-to-freighter conversions remains strong and plans to monetize the remaining Boeing 757 fleet are on track.

GAAP net loss for the third quarter of 2021 was $1.6 million compared to GAAP net income of $14.7 million in the third quarter of 2020.  AerSale incurred $8.7 million of non-cash equity-based compensation expenses within payroll expenses this quarter, as well as $2.1 million in mark-to-market costs related to our Private Warrants for which there were no corresponding expenses in the third quarter of 2020. Adjusted Net Income excluding both of these items was $9.2 million.  Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2021 was $13.9 million, or 18.9% of revenues, compared to $25.6 million, or 44.8% of revenue in the third quarter of 2020. AerSale recognized $6.3 million in Payroll Support Program proceeds during the third quarter of 2020. There were no corresponding proceeds in the current quarter. Please see the non-GAAP reconciliation table at the end of this press release for additional details on these amounts.

Looking forward, AerSale expects the ongoing recovery in commercial markets to continue albeit at a mixed pace as the impact of the COVID-19 delta variant makes the outlook less clear. The Company is on track to monetize its B757 investment through the remainder of 2021 and first half of 2022. AerSale expects to benefit from a pickup in MRO volume due to the recommissioning of commercial aircraft, greater demand for USM parts consumption for overhaul activity, and contributions from its innovative AerAware product launch.

Nicolas Finazzo, AerSale’s Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are satisfied with our progress and the performance of our purpose built, integrated business model. We expect the burgeoning recovery in the commercial markets to continue in the foreseeable future, which will support strengthening demand for our products and services. Our profitability is exceeding our forecast as we recognize higher margins for our freighter aircraft due to strong customer demand, which positions us to increase our full-year profit guidance.”

¹ A reconciliation of non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA guidance to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP 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 are out of AerSale’s control or cannot be reasonably predicted without unreasonable efforts.

Finazzo added, “In our high growth, high margin Engineered Solutions platform, we are progressing well toward certification of AerAware, a head-wearable enhanced flight vision product. We are confident this technology will become the industry standard on commercial aircraft in the long-term given its uniqueness, high safety proposition, and attractive returns to operators. At the same time, we expect demand for our AerSafe product to accelerate as it satisfies an FAA airworthiness directive required by May of 2022. Innovations such as AerAware and AerSafe from our Engineered Solutions platform have large addressable markets and we expect these products to meaningfully drive the Company’s revenue and margins over the long term.”

Third Quarter 2021 Results of Operations

AerSale reported revenue of $73.3 million for the third quarter of 2021, which included $27.4 million of flight equipment sales. Revenue in the third quarter of 2020 was $57.1 million and did not include any flight equipment sales. As a reminder to investors, flight equipment sales are volatile quarter to quarter, and the Company believes full-year analysis, rather than year-over-year quarterly comparisons is a more effective measurement of Company progress.

Asset Management Solutions (AMS) revenue increased by $19.2 million or 64.8% in the third quarter of 2021 primarily on account of the above-mentioned flight equipment sales. Consumption of used serviceable material (USM) parts for maintenance was strong through the quarter as airlines continued to return aircraft into operation against the backdrop of an upswing in air travel. The increase was partially offset by lower leasing due to a lease return payment recognized in the prior year.

Revenue from TechOps was down 10.9% to $24.4 million in the third quarter of 2021, largely due to lower aircraft storage and related maintenance activities at the Company’s aircraft MRO facilities as airlines returned aircraft into operation, as well as a shift in resources to support the Company’s cargo conversion line for its B757 aircraft. Looking forward, AerSale is well positioned to benefit from additional reactivation work, heavy maintenance, and cargo conversions.

Gross margin was 33.6% in the third quarter of 2021 compared to 46.4% in the third quarter of 2020. The decline was primarily due to the lease return condition payment recognized in the prior year.

Selling, general and administrative expenses net of Payroll Support Program proceeds were $22.8 million in the third quarter of 2021 compared to $13.4 million in the third quarter of 2020. AerSale received $6.3 million in Payroll Support Program proceeds during the third quarter of 2020 and did not receive any Payroll Support Program proceeds in the third quarter of 2021. In addition, the Company incurred $8.7 million of equity-based compensation within payroll expenses in the third quarter of 2021, with no corresponding equity-based compensation in the third quarter of 2020.

Income from operations was $1.8 million in the third quarter of 2021 versus $19.3 million in the third quarter of 2020.

Income tax expense was $1.1 million in the third quarter of 2021 compared to an income tax expense of $4.5 million in the third quarter of 2020.

GAAP net loss for the third quarter of 2021 was $1.6 million compared to GAAP net income of $14.7 million in the third quarter of 2020. Adjusted for non-cash equity compensation and mark-to-market costs on the warrant liability, Adjusted Net Income was $9.2 million.

Diluted earnings per share was a loss of $0.04 for the third quarter of 2021. Diluted earnings per share for the third quarter of 2021 is not comparable to the third quarter of 2020 due to the public listing of AerSale on December 23, 2020. Excluding the impacts of equity-based compensation and the mark-to-market costs on the private warrants, adjusted diluted earnings per share was $0.22 for the third quarter of 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter of 2021 was $13.9 million, or 18.9% of revenues, compared to $25.6 million, or 44.8% of revenue in the third quarter of 2020. Adjusted EBITDA benefitted from $6.3 million in Payroll Support Program proceeds during the third quarter of 2020, for which there was no corresponding benefit in the third

quarter of 2021. Adjusted EBITDA declined from the year ago period largely because of the absence of corresponding Payroll Support Program proceeds in third quarter of 2021, as well as the contribution from the lease return condition payment received last year.

2021 Guidance

AerSale expects revenue of $320–$340 million and adjusted EBITDA of $80-$90 million in 2021. This outlook is based on an improvement in the Company’s AMS segment, ongoing demand for its on-airport MRO services, accelerating demand in cargo and E-Commerce markets, increased requests for passenger-to-freighter conversions and other TechOps products and services. Decrease in revenue is related to the timing of flight equipment sales, but is more than offset by higher EBITDA margins.

The ongoing and continued monetization of the Boeing 757 fleet acquisition is expected to be the main driver of the AMS segment. AerSale expects to sell the majority of the available aircraft in 2021 and the first half of 2022 as a result of strong demand for cargo converted aircraft. For TechOps, in addition to higher MRO volume from the recommissioning of commercial aircraft, the Company expects increased contribution from demand for its AerSafe product.

Warrant Redemption

AerSale has determined that a redemption employing a cashless exchange of the warrants issued as part of the business combination with Monocle Acquisition Corp., a special purpose acquisition company, for AerSale common stock does not violate the CARES Act. AerSale submitted its position to the Treasury Department and received confirmation that “the cashless warrant redemption does not appear to be a compliance issue under the Acts.” As such, AerSale can exercise its right to redeem the warrants at the appropriate time as prescribed in its warrant agreements.

Conference Call Information

The Company will host a conference call today at 4:30 pm Eastern Time to discuss these results. A live webcast will also be available at https://ir.aersale.com/news-events/events.

An archived replay of the call will also be available on the Investors portion of the AerSale website at https://ir.aersale.com.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted EBITDA, adjusted Net Income, 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 is defined as net income (loss) after giving effect to mark-to-market costs relating to our Private Warrants, non-cash equity-based compensation expense and other non-recurring or unusual items. Adjusted diluted earnings 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 or net income 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 audited 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,

or adjusted diluted earnings per share measures may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
