AAR Corp. CEO sees positive operating cash flows over remainder of fiscal year

John Holmes, AAR’s Chairman, President and CEO said, “During the quarter, we made investments across the Company with particular focus on supporting the continued rapid growth in Parts Supply. We also acquired Aerostrat, adding to our Trax software capabilities. As we convert these investments into profitable growth, we expect to generate positive operating cash flows over the remainder of the fiscal year.” Holmes concluded, “We remain focused on our strategic objectives and our financial position is strong. We anticipate our sales growth will continue across all of our segments. Demand for our Parts Supply offerings remains very high and we have invested in inventory to support that demand. In Repair & Engineering, our existing hangars have a multi-year backlog and the 15% new capacity coming online in Oklahoma City and Miami in calendar 2026 has also been sold out. Additionally, we are encouraged by continued growth across our government activities and also excited by the opportunities we see for Trax within our Integrated Solutions segment. Finally, we are seeing the benefits of our prior investments and portfolio upgrades and we expect these actions to continue to drive further margin improvement and cash flow generation.”
