Equity Method Investments
Advanced Engine Repair JV
In December 2016, the Company invested $15.0 million for a 25% interest in an advanced engine repair joint venture. This joint venture is focused on developing new cost savings programs for engine repairs.
In August 2019, the Company expanded the scope of our joint venture and invested an additional $13.5 million and maintained a 25% interest. The Company exercises significant influence over this investment and accounts for this investment as an equity method investment.
2025 Partnership
As of December 31, 2025, the Company invested $291.5 million in the 2025 Partnership. During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company invested $95.1 million in the 2025 Partnership, and received $66.8 million in distributions from the 2025 Partnership. The 2025 Partnership is an investment focused on acquiring 737NG and A320ceo on-lease narrowbody aircraft, for which the Company is the Servicer and holds a 19% limited partner ownership. The unaffiliated limited partners hold substantive kick-out rights over the Company as general partner. The Company exercises significant influence over this investment and accounts for it using the equity method. As the Servicer, the Company is responsible for lessee invoicing and collections, airline relationship management, contracts management including lease extension and aircraft deliveries and redeliveries. The Company's proportionate share of equity in earnings related to this investment is based on the contractual profit-sharing arrangement and the elimination of profit on sales of engine and modules to the 2025 Partnership under ASC 606. The profit from the MRE Contract revenue - affiliate is eliminated through equity method earnings and will be recognized over time as the 2025 Partnership generates income from leasing and sales activities.
