Stamford, CT. March 5, 2010 — Aircastle Limited (the “Company” or “Aircastle”) (NYSE: AYR) reported fourth quarter net income of $23.0 million, or $0.29 per diluted common share, and adjusted net income of $21.1 million, or $0.27 per diluted common share. Net income for the year ended December 31, 2009 was $102.5 million, or $1.29 per diluted common share, and adjusted net income of $104.8 million, or $1.32 per diluted common share.
Commenting on the results, Ron Wainshal, Aircastle’s CEO, stated, “Against the backdrop of unprecedented economic challenges in 2009, Aircastle expanded its customer base, grew unrestricted cash to $143 million, and maintained 98% utilization of its modern aircraft fleet. We entered 2010 in a stronger, more competitive position, poised to capitalize on growth opportunities, given our conservative

capital structure, world-class team and a proven ability to originate deals and source capital. We are excited about the investment opportunities we see in the market today.
“In the fourth quarter, we continued to place aircraft on long-term leases and source new capital. We signed lease commitments for six new Airbus A330-200 aircraft delivering to South African Airways in 2011. With this placement, we have secured customers for 11 of our 12 new Airbus A330 orders. This transaction not only marked an important milestone for Aircastle, but it also served as further evidence of a recovery in aircraft leasing. Additionally, we completed our second ECA-supported A330-200 financing for an aircraft we delivered on long term lease to Avianca.”
Fourth Quarter Results
Fourth quarter total revenues were $135.8 million, a decrease of $22.0 million from the fourth quarter 2008 and reflects lower maintenance revenue of $13.8 million due primarily to fewer lease terminations in the fourth quarter of 2009, and lower lease rental revenue of $9.3 million due principally to lease transitions and extensions.
EBITDA was $124.6 million, down $15.2 million from the fourth quarter 2008, and reflects lower lease rental revenue and maintenance revenue totaling $23.1 million, higher maintenance and other costs of $2.5 million and a one-time $4.0 million charge in connection with the termination of an engine purchase agreement related to our A330 program, partially offset by lower mark to market expense on our undesignated hedges of $10.9 million and gains from the sale of debt investments of $5.1 million.
Adjusted net income plus depreciation and amortization for the quarter was $77.5 million, down $24.1 million year over year, due primarily to lower lease rental revenue and maintenance revenue totaling $23.1 million.
Adjusted net income for the quarter was $21.1 million, down $25.5 million year over year, and primarily reflects lower total revenues of $22.0 million, higher depreciation expense of $3.2 million, and higher maintenance and other costs of $2.5 million partially offset by lower adjusted interest, net of $3.8 million.
Full Year 2009 Results
Total revenues for the year were $570.6 million, a decrease of $12.0 million from 2008. The year over year decrease resulted from lower lease rental revenue of $30.8 million, due principally to lease transitions and extensions including downtime, increased amortization of net lease discounts and lease incentives of $13.0 million, partially offset by higher end of lease maintenance revenue of $24.3 million and higher other revenues of $8.8 million due to lease termination payments received in 2009.
EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2009 was $501.7 million, a decrease of $24.6 million and reflects higher maintenance and other costs of $15.4 million resulting primarily from early lease terminations, aircraft impairment charges of $18.2 million related to the early return of aircraft, and a $4.0 million charge related to an engine purchase agreement, all of which was partially offset by lower mark to market expense on our undesignated hedges of $12.4.
Adjusted net income plus depreciation and amortization for the year was $325.5 million, a decrease of $24.5 million and reflects higher maintenance and other costs of $15.4 million and aircraft impairment charges of $18.2 million, all of which was partially offset by lower adjusted interest, net of $9.5 million.
Adjusted net income was $104.8 million, a decrease of $45.3 million compared to full year 2008 due principally to lower total revenues of $12.0 million, higher maintenance and other costs of $15.4 million, aircraft impairment charges of $18.2 million, and higher depreciation expense of $7.7 million all of which was partially offset by lower adjusted interest, net of $9.5 million.
Aviation Assets
In December Aircastle took delivery of a second new Airbus A330-200 aircraft on long-term lease to Aerovias del Continente Americano (“Avianca”). This delivery was the second advancement of one of Aircastle’s new A330 aircraft order positions and was funded with ECA-supported debt financing.

We define EBITDA as income from continuing operations before income taxes, interest expense, and depreciation and amortization. We use EBITDA to assess our consolidated financial and operating performance, and we believe this non-GAAP measure is helpful in identifying trends in our performance. Using EBITDA assists us in comparing our operating performance on a consistent basis by removing the impact of our capital structure (primarily interest charges on our outstanding debt) and asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) from our operating results.

Management believes that Adjusted Net Income (“ANI”) and Adjusted Net Income plus Depreciation and Amortization (“ANIDA”), when viewed in conjunction with the Company’s results under GAAP and the above reconciliation, provide useful information about operating and period-over-period performance, and provide additional information that is useful for evaluating the underlying operating performance of our business without regard to periodic reporting elements related to interest rate derivative accounting as well as gains/(losses) related to flight equipment and debt investments. Additionally, management believes that ANIDA provides investors with an additional metric to enhance their understanding of the factors and trends affecting our ongoing cash earnings, from which capital investments are made, debt is serviced and dividends are paid. However, ANI and ANIDA are not measures of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and, accordingly, should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss) or cash flow from operating activities as indicators of operating performance or liquidity.
