Commenting on the results, Ron Wainshal, Aircastle’s CEO, stated “We’re off to a strong start in 2015 as earnings and cash returns increased. We are finding attractive investments by delivering more unique and value-additive transactions to our customers, and so far this year we closed or committed to close $770 million in acquisitions. We continue to improve our portfolio quality, increased our average lease term to 5.6 years and secured new operators for all of the aircraft we removed from Russia over the past several months. During the first quarter, we further strengthened our funding capacity and flexibility by issuing $500 million of new unsecured notes and enlarging our revolving credit facility to $600 million.”

We are capitalizing on this through our asset sales and capital market initiatives, yet we also remain optimistic about our ability to grow profitably by leveraging our differentiated business approach and our team strengths.”

First Quarter Results
Total revenues were $194.3 million, an increase of $17.7 million, or 10%, from the previous year, driven by higher maintenance revenues of $15.0 million. During the first quarter of 2014, we recorded $16.4 million of contra maintenance revenue in connection with engine restoration work completed by a lessee prior to the scheduled return of three aircraft.
Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter was $190.2 million, up $20.2 million, or 12% from the first quarter of 2014, due primarily to higher maintenance revenues of $15.0 million and higher gains from aircraft sales of $5.1 million.
Adjusted net income for the quarter was $50.5 million, up $37.2 million year over year. The increase was due primarily to higher total revenues of $17.7 million and lower non-cash aircraft impairment charges of $18.3 million.
Aviation Assets
During the first quarter of 2015, we acquired six aircraft for $254 million and are currently committed to acquire an additional 19 aircraft for $515 million. The aircraft acquired during the first quarter had a weighted average age of less than two years and are on long term leases.
Also during the first quarter of 2015, we completed the profitable sale of two aircraft leased to an airline based in India and other flight equipment for a total of $50.5 million.

As of March 31, 2015, Aircastle owned 152 aircraft having a net book value of $5.8 billion. We also manage five aircraft with a net book value of approximately $500 million dollars on behalf of our joint venture with Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan.

We define EBITDA as income (loss) 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-US GAAP measure is helpful in identifying trends in our performance.
This measure provides an assessment of controllable expenses and affords management the ability to make decisions which are expected to facilitate meeting current financial goals as well as achieving optimal financial performance. It provides an indicator for management to determine if adjustments to current spending decisions are needed.
EBITDA provides us with a measure of operating performance because it assists us in comparing our operating performance on a consistent basis as it removes the impact of our capital structure (primarily interest charges on our outstanding debt) and asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization) from our operating results. Accordingly, this metric measures our financial performance based on operational factors that management can impact in the short-term, namely the cost structure, or expenses, of the organization. EBITDA is one of the metrics used by senior management and the board of directors to review the consolidated financial performance of our business.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA (as defined above) further adjusted to give effect to adjustments required in calculating covenant ratios and compliance as that term is defined in the indenture governing our senior unsecured notes. Adjusted EBITDA is a material component of these covenants.

Note: LTM Average Shareholders’ Equity is the average of the most recent five quarters period end Shareholders’ Equity. Management believes that the cash return on equity metric (Cash ROE) when viewed in conjunction with the Company’s results under US 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 impacts related to non-cash revenue and expense items and interest rate derivative accounting, while recognizing the depreciating nature of our assets.
