Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Basis of Presentation

AAR CORP. and its subsidiaries are referred to herein collectively as “AAR,” “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our,” unless the context indicates otherwise. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of AAR and its subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany accounts and transactions.

We have prepared these statements without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of May 31, 2026 has been derived from audited financial statements. To prepare the financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), management has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Certain information and note disclosures, normally included in comprehensive financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations of the SEC. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026.

In the opinion of management, the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments (which consist only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of AAR CORP. and its subsidiaries as of August 31, 2026 and for the three-month periods ended August 31, 2026 and 2025. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year presentation to conform to the fiscal 2027 presentation.

New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2024-03,Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This ASU includes new disclosure requirements about specific expense categories, including but not limited to, purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and selling expenses that are included in certain expense captions presented on the face of the income statement. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted and the ASU can be applied on a prospective or retrospective basis. We expect this ASU to only impact our disclosures with no impacts to our results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition.

2**.**** Acquisitions**

Acquisition of Aircraft Reconfig Technologies

On April 24, 2026, we acquired the outstanding shares of Aircraft Reconfig Technologies (“ART”), a leading aircraft interiors engineering company for $36.3 million including post-closing adjustments for cash, working capital, and indebtedness.

We accounted for the acquisition using the acquisition method and included the results of ART’s operations in our consolidated financial statements from the effective date of the acquisition. ART’s results are reported within our Repair, Engineering, and Software segment. The base purchase price of $36.0 million was paid at closing and post-closing adjustments of $0.3 million were resolved and paid in the three-month period ended August 31, 2026. Transaction costs associated with the acquisition of $1.1 million were expensed as incurred during fiscal 2026.

The purchase price was allocated to identifiable assets and liabilities based on information available at the date of acquisition. The allocation of the purchase price is preliminary and may change in future periods as fair value estimates of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are finalized, including those related to working capital, intangible assets, property and equipment, leases, and indemnification assets.

The final determination of the fair values will be completed within the one-year measurement period. The preliminary fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is as follows:

​​​​
Accounts receivable​ ​ ​$2.1
Inventory​​17.5
Intangible assets​​14.0
Other assets​​0.2
Accounts payable and other liabilities​(12.9)
Net assets acquired​20.9
Goodwill​15.4
Purchase price, net of cash acquired​$36.3

Acquired amortizable intangible assets include customer relationships of $7.0 million, developed technology of $3.9 million, and backlog of $3.1 million, which are being amortized over 9.5 years,6 years, and 3 years, respectively. The goodwill associated with the ART acquisition is deductible for tax purposes and is primarily attributable to the benefits we expect to derive from expected synergies including complementary product lines, cross-selling opportunities, operational efficiencies, and intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition, such as their assembled workforce.

Acquisition of HAECO Americas

On November 3, 2025, we acquired the outstanding shares of HAECO Americas, LLC and its subsidiary HAECO Airframe Services, LLC (together, “HAECO Americas”) from HAECO USA, Inc. for a purchase price of $78.0 million, which includes estimated post-closing adjustments for cash, working capital, and indebtedness. HAECO Americas provides heavy aircraft maintenance, repair, and overhaul (“MRO”) and modification services across its hangars located in Greensboro, North Carolina and Lake City, Florida.

We accounted for the acquisition using the acquisition method and included the results of HAECO Americas’ operations in our consolidated financial statements from the effective date of the acquisition. HAECO Americas’ results are reported within our Repair, Engineering, and Software segment. The base purchase price was paid at closing and transaction costs associated with the acquisition of $3.3 million were expensed as incurred in fiscal 2026.

The purchase price was allocated to identifiable assets and liabilities based on information available at the date of acquisition. The allocation of the purchase price is preliminary and may change in future periods as fair value estimates of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are finalized, including those primarily related to working capital.

The preliminary fair value of the identifiable assets acquired exceeded the total purchase price resulting in a bargain purchase gain of $29.5 million, which we recognized in fiscal 2026. We believe the acquisition resulted in a bargain purchase gain as the seller was highly motivated to divest the business as part of its long-term strategies.

The final determination of the fair values will be completed within the one-year measurement period. The preliminary fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is as follows:

​​​​
Accounts receivable​ ​ ​$25.9
Contract assets​15.7
Inventory​16.2
Right-of-use assets​95.2
Other assets​15.0
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities​(35.4)
Deferred taxes, net​(8.0)
Lease liabilities​(17.1)
Net assets acquired​​107.5
Bargain purchase gain​​(29.5)
Purchase price, net of cash acquired​$78.0

As part of our integration activities, we are consolidating our facility footprint, which includes closing our Indianapolis, Indiana airframe maintenance facility and relocating the majority of those operations to the Greensboro, North Carolina facility. Expenses incurred for integration activities during the three-month period ended August 31, 2026 were $3.5 million.

Acquisition of ADI

On September 25, 2025, we acquired the outstanding shares of American Distributors Holding Co., LLC (“ADI”), including ADI American Distributors, LLC and other of ADI’s subsidiaries, for a purchase price of $137.1 million. The post-closing adjustments for cash, working capital and indebtedness were resolved in the third quarter of fiscal 2026 resulting in a $0.6 million reduction in the purchase price.

ADI is a leading distributor of electronic components and assemblies to original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) across the aerospace and defense industry. The initial purchase price was paid at closing except for $4.5 million, which was placed on deposit with an escrow agent to secure potential indemnification obligations and fund post-closing adjustments for working capital and indebtedness. During the three-month period ended February 28, 2026, the post-closing adjustments were finalized resulting in the release of $1.0 million from the escrow. During the three-month period ended August 31, 2026, an additional $1.4 million was released from the escrow.

We accounted for the acquisition using the acquisition method and included the results of ADI’s operations in our consolidated financial statements from the effective date of the acquisition. ADI’s results are reported within our Parts Supply segment.

The purchase price was allocated to identifiable assets and liabilities based on information available at the date of acquisition. The final fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is as follows:

​​​​
Accounts receivable​ ​ ​$13.1
Contract assets​​7.9
Inventory​55.5
Intangible assets​75.8
Other assets​5.4
Accounts payable and other liabilities​(28.6)
Net assets acquired​129.1
Goodwill​8.0
Purchase price, net of cash acquired​$137.1

Acquired amortizable intangible assets include customer relationships of $43.3 million and backlog of $16.4 million, which are being amortized over 12.5 years and 3 years, respectively. We also recognized indefinite-lived trademarks of $16.1 million. The goodwill associated with the ADI acquisition is deductible for tax purposes and is primarily attributable to the benefits we expect to derive from expected synergies including complementary product lines, cross-selling opportunities, operational efficiencies, and intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition, such as their assembled workforce. Expenses incurred for integration activities during the three-month period ended August 31, 2026 were $0.2 million.

Acquisition of Aerostrat

On August 11, 2025, we acquired the outstanding shares of Aerostrat Corp. (“Aerostrat”) for a purchase price of $15.0 million plus contingent consideration of up to $5.0 million. Aerostrat is a leading long-range maintenance planning software provider used by airlines, MRO facilities, and cargo companies to automate complex scheduling, ensure production capacity, and simplify aircraft allocation.

The purchase price was paid at closing except for $3.1 million, which was placed on deposit with an escrow agent to secure potential indemnification obligations and fund post-closing adjustments for working capital and indebtedness. During the three-month period ended August 31, 2026, the post-closing adjustments were finalized resulting in the release of $1.5 million from the escrow.

The contingent consideration includes $1.0 million subject to the successful launch of certain product offerings by December 31, 2026 and up to $4.0 million based on the achievement of adjusted revenue targets by August 1, 2028. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration was $4.0 million at the acquisition date and has been included in the purchase price.

We accounted for the acquisition using the acquisition method and included the results of Aerostrat’s operations in our consolidated financial statements from the effective date of the acquisition. Aerostrat’s results are reported within our Repair, Engineering, and Software segment.

The final fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is as follows:

​​​​
Current assets​ ​ ​$0.6
Intangible assets​10.3
Deferred revenue​(0.6)
Net deferred tax liabilities​(2.0)
Net assets acquired​8.3
Goodwill​10.7
Purchase price, net of cash acquired​$19.0

Acquired amortizable intangible assets include customer relationships of $4.7 million and developed technology of $4.9 million, which are being amortized over 10 years and 20 years, respectively. Intangible assets also include tradenames of $0.7 million, which are indefinite-lived. The goodwill associated with the Aerostrat acquisition is not deductible for tax purposes and is primarily attributable to the benefits we expect to derive from expected synergies including complementary products and services, cross-selling opportunities and intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition, such as their assembled workforce.

Acquisition of Triumph Group’s Product Support Business

On March 1, 2024, we completed the acquisition of Triumph Group, Inc.’s Product Support business (“Product Support”) for a purchase price of $720.0 million. Product Support is a leading global provider of specialized MRO capabilities for critical aircraft components in the commercial and defense markets, providing MRO services for structural components, engine and airframe accessories, interior refurbishment and wheels and brakes. Product Support also designs proprietary designated engineering representative repairs and parts manufacturer approval parts.

As part of our integration activities, we are consolidating our facility footprint which included the closure of our Garden City, New York leased component repair facility and relocating those operations to certain Product Support facilities. In conjunction with the facility exit, environmental remediation obligations were identified and we recognized a liability for $1.1 million in fiscal 2026 as our estimate of the future costs associated with the remediation. The timing of expenditures depends on a number of factors, including the nature and extent of contamination, the timing of regulatory approvals, the complexity of the investigation and remediation, and the standards for remediation. In addition to the liability for the environmental remediation obligations, we also recognized a liability of $0.5 million which represents our estimated settlement cost for a related landlord dispute.

Expenses recognized for integration activities, including facility closure costs, product line exits, severance, retention, and other related costs, were $1.0 million during the three-month period ended August 31, 2025. The integration was completed in fiscal 2026.

Acquisition of Trax USA Corp.

On March 20, 2023, we acquired the outstanding shares of Trax USA Corp. (“Trax”) for a purchase price of $120.0 million plus contingent consideration of up to $20.0 million based on Trax’s adjusted revenue in calendar years 2023 and 2024. Trax is a leading provider of aircraft MRO and fleet management software supporting a broad spectrum of maintenance activities for a diverse global customer base of airlines and MROs.

The contingent consideration is based on an adjusted cumulative revenue target across calendar years 2023 and 2024. The adjusted cumulative revenue target is based on revenue recognized under U.S. GAAP adjusted for certain events related to deferred revenue, customer commitments, and other adjustments. The contingent consideration is treated as compensation expense within Selling, general, and administrative expenses. During the three-month period ended August 31, 2026, we recognized $4.9 million of compensation expense related to the contingent consideration. As of August 31, 2026, we have a contingent consideration liability of $13.0 million, which was classified as Accrued liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

In November 2025, Trax’s former owners filed a demand for arbitration contesting the determination of the contingent consideration and certain tax matters. We strongly disagree with the claims by Trax’s former owners and we believe we have adequate support for our determination of the contingent consideration and our positions on the tax matters. We expect to finalize the contingent consideration in fiscal 2027.

3. Revenue Recognition

Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer and excludes any sales incentives and amounts collected on behalf of third parties. We recognize revenue when we satisfy a performance obligation by transferring control over a product or service to a customer.

Our unit of accounting for revenue recognition is a performance obligation included in our customer contracts. A performance obligation reflects the distinct good or service that we must transfer to a customer. At contract inception, we evaluate if the contract should be accounted for as a single performance obligation or if the contract contains multiple performance obligations. In some cases, our contract with the customer is considered one performance obligation as it includes factors such as whether the good or service being provided is significantly integrated with other promises in the contract, whether the service provided significantly modifies or customizes another good or service or whether the good or service is highly interdependent or interrelated. If the contract has more than one performance obligation, we determine the standalone price of each distinct good or service underlying each performance obligation and allocate the transaction price based on their relative standalone selling prices.

The transaction price of a contract, which can include both fixed and variable amounts, is allocated to each performance obligation identified. Some contracts contain variable consideration, which could include incremental fees or penalty provisions related to performance. Variable consideration that can be reasonably estimated based on current assumptions and historical information is included in the transaction price at the inception of the contract but limited to the amount that is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur. Variable consideration that cannot be reasonably estimated is recorded when known.

Our performance obligations are satisfied over time as work progresses or at a point in time based on transfer of control of products and services to our customers. The majority of our sales from products typically represent distinct performance obligations and are recognized at a point in time upon transfer of control to the customer, which generally occurs upon shipment. In connection with certain sales of products, we also provide logistics services, which include inventory management, replenishment, and other related services. The price of such services is generally included in the price of the products delivered to the customer, and revenues are recognized upon delivery of the product, at which point the customer has obtained control of the product. We do not account for these services separate from the related product sales as the services are inputs required to fulfill part orders received from customers.

For our performance obligations that are satisfied over time, we measure progress in a manner that depicts the performance of transferring control to the customer. As such, we utilize the input method of cost-to-cost to recognize revenue over time as this depicts when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to the customer. Revenue is recognized based on the relationship of actual costs incurred to date to the estimated total cost at completion of the performance obligation.

We are required to make certain judgments and estimates, including estimated revenues and costs, as well as inflation and the overall profitability of the arrangement. Key assumptions involved can include customer volume, future labor costs and efficiencies, repair or overhaul costs, overhead costs, and ultimate timing of product delivery. Differences may occur between the judgments and estimates made by management and actual program results. For contracts that are deemed to be loss contracts, we establish forward loss reserves for total estimated costs that are in excess of total estimated consideration in the period in which they become known.

We utilize the portfolio approach to estimate the amount of revenue to recognize for certain contracts which require over time revenue recognition. Such contracts are grouped together either by revenue stream, customer or product line with each portfolio of contracts grouped together based on having similar characteristics. The portfolio approach is utilized only when the result of the accounting is not expected to be materially different than if applied to individual contracts.

We also may enter into offset agreements or conditions as part of obtaining orders for our products and services from certain government customers in foreign countries. These agreements are designed to enhance the social and economic environment of the foreign country by requiring the contractor to promote investment in the country. These agreements also may be satisfied through our use of cash or other means of providing financial support for in-country projects with local companies. The amounts ultimately applied against our offset agreements are based on negotiations with the customer and satisfaction of our offset obligations are included in the estimates of our total costs to complete the contract.

When contracts are modified, we consider whether the modification either creates new or changes the existing enforceable rights and obligations. Contract modifications that are for goods or services that are not distinct from the existing contract, due to the significant integration with the original goods or services provided, are accounted for as if they were part of that existing contract with the effect of the contract modification recognized as an adjustment to revenue on a cumulative catch-up basis. When the modifications include additional performance obligations that are distinct, they are accounted for as a new contract and performance obligation, which are recognized prospectively.

Certain contracts with customers have options for the customer to acquire additional goods or services. In most cases, the pricing of these options are reflective of the standalone selling price of the good or service. These options do not provide the customer with a material right and are accounted for only when the customer exercises the option to purchase the additional goods or services. If the option on the customer contract was not indicative of the standalone selling price of the good or service, the material right would be accounted for as a separate performance obligation.

Under most of our U.S. government contracts, if the contract is terminated for convenience, we are entitled to payment for items delivered and fair compensation for work performed, the costs of settling and paying other claims, and a reasonable profit on the costs incurred or committed.

In the performance of our government contracts, we routinely request contract modifications that require additional funding from the customer. Most often, these requests are due to customer-directed changes in the scope of work. While we are entitled to recovery of these costs under our contracts, the administrative process with our customer may be protracted. Based on the circumstances, we periodically file requests for equitable adjustment (“REAs”) that are sometimes converted into claims. In some cases, these REAs are disputed by our customer. We believe our outstanding modifications, REAs and other similar claims will be resolved without material impact to our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

In the ordinary course of business, agencies of the U.S. and other governments audit our claimed costs and conduct inquiries and investigations of our business practices with respect to government contracts to determine whether our operations are conducted in accordance with these requirements and the terms of the relevant contracts. U.S. government agencies, including the Defense Contract Audit Agency (“DCAA”), routinely audit our claimed indirect costs, for compliance with the Cost Accounting Standards and the Federal Acquisition Regulations. These agencies also conduct reviews and investigations and make inquiries regarding our accounting and other systems in connection with our performance and business practices with respect to our government contracts and subcontracts.

Costs to fulfill and obtain a contract are considered for capitalization based on contract specific facts and circumstances. The incremental costs to fulfill a contract, including setup and implementation costs prior to beginning the period of performance, are capitalized when expenses are incurred prior to the start of satisfying a performance obligation. The capitalized costs are subsequently expensed over the contract’s period of performance.

We have elected to use certain practical expedients permitted under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606. Shipping and handling fees and costs incurred associated with outbound freight after control over a product has transferred to a customer are accounted for as a fulfillment cost and are included in Cost of sales on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, and are not considered a performance obligation to our customers. Our reported Sales on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income include sales and related non-income taxes. We also utilize the “as invoiced”practical expedient in certain cases where performance obligations are satisfied over time and the invoiced amount corresponds directly with the value we are providing to the customer.

Cumulative Catch-up Adjustments

Changes in estimates and assumptions related to our arrangements accounted for using the cost-to-cost method are recorded using the cumulative catch-up method of accounting. These changes are primarily adjustments to the estimated profitability for our long- term programs where we provide component inventory management, supply chain logistics programs, and/or repair services.

For the three-month period ended August 31, 2026, we recognized unfavorable cumulative catch-up adjustments of $(3.4) million. For the three-month period ended August 31, 2025, we recognizedno cumulative catch-up adjustments.

Contract Assets and Liabilities

The timing of revenue recognition, customer billings, and cash collections results in a contract asset or contract liability at the end of each reporting period. For instances where we recognize revenue prior to having an unconditional right to payment, we record a contract asset. When an unconditional right to consideration exists, we reduce our contract asset and recognize an unbilled or trade receivable. When amounts are dependent on factors other than the passage of time in order for payment from a customer to be due, we record a contract asset which consists of costs incurred where revenue recognized over time using the cost-to-cost model exceeds the amounts billed to customers. Contract liabilities include advance payments and billings in excess of revenue recognized. Certain customers make advance payments prior to the satisfaction of our performance obligations on the contract. These amounts are recorded as contract liabilities until such performance obligations are satisfied, either over time as costs are incurred or at a point in time when deliveries are made. Contract assets and contract liabilities are determined on a contract-by-contract basis.

Net contract assets and liabilities are as follows:

​​​​​​​​​​
​ · ​ · August 31, · ​ · May 31, · ​ · ​ · ​
​ · ​ ​ ​ · 2026 · ​ ​ ​ · 2026 · ​ ​ ​ · Change
Contract assets – current​$147.3​$148.4​$(1.1)
Contract assets – non-current​​45.7​​42.9​​2.8
Contract liabilities:​​​​​​​​​
Deferred revenue – current​​(40.8)​​(50.3)​​9.5
Deferred revenue on long-term contracts​​(20.2)​(6.9)​(13.3)
Net contract assets​$132.0​$134.1​$(2.1)

Contract assets – non-current is reported within Other non-current assets and deferred revenue on long-term contracts is reported within Other liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in contract assets and contract liabilities primarily result from the timing difference between our performance of services and payments from customers.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2025, our Mobility Systems’ business received a stop-work order from our U.S. government customer on the Next Generation Pallet contract as the program was terminated for convenience by the customer. Under the conditions for the termination for convenience, we have the right to submit a proposal for recovery of our incurred costs. In conjunction with the termination, we expensed equipment and inventory of $12.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and recognized a contract asset of $9.5 million reflecting the estimated recovery on our incurred costs.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2025, we submitted our termination settlement proposal to the customer and increased our contract asset to $13.5 million based on the revised estimated recovery. In conjunction with the termination settlement proposal submission, we also expensed an additional $1.0 million of equipment and other costs.

Changes in our deferred revenue were as follows for the three-month periods ended August 31, 2026 and 2025:

​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​
​ · ​ ​ ​ · Three Months Ended
​ · ​ · August 31,
​​ ​ ​2026​ ​ ​2025
Deferred revenue at beginning of period​$(57.2)​$(46.7)
Revenue deferred​(162.3)​(87.0)
Revenue recognized​160.9​93.7
Other (1)​(2.4)​(0.7)
Deferred revenue at end of period​$(61.0)​$(40.7)

(1)Other includes cumulative catch-up adjustments, foreign currency translation, acquisitions, and other adjustments.

Remaining Performance Obligations

As of August 31, 2026, we had approximately $866 million of remaining performance obligations, also referred to as firm backlog, which excludes unexercised contract options and potential orders under our indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity contracts. We expect that approximately 70% of this backlog will be recognized as revenue over the next 12 months, an additional 15% of the firm backlog over the following 12 months, and the balance thereafter. The amount of remaining performance obligations that are expected to be recognized as revenue beyond 12 months primarily relates to our long-term programs where we provide component inventory management, supply chain logistics programs, and/or repair services.

Disaggregation of Revenue

Third-party sales across the major customer markets for each of our operating segments for the three-month periods ended August 31, 2026 and 2025 were as follows:

​​​​​​​

Asia/South Pacific​​102.8​​89.7
Other​​12.3​​31.1
​​$918.0​$739.6

4. Restricted Cash

Restricted cash represents cash on hand that is legally restricted as to withdrawal or usage. As of August 31, 2026, restricted cash includes $5.7 million on deposit with escrow agents related to our recent acquisitions and $2.9 million required to be set aside by a contractual agreement to provide servicing related to receivable securitization arrangements.

The restrictions related to our acquisitions lapse at the time of resolution of certain contingencies including tax contingencies. The restrictions related to the receivable securitization arrangements lapse at the time we remit the customer payments collected by us as servicer of previously sold customer receivables to the purchaser.

5. Accounts Receivable

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of market or credit risk consist principally of trade receivables. While our trade receivables are diverse and represent a number of entities and geographic regions, the majority are with the U.S. government and its contractors and entities in the aviation industry. The composition of our accounts receivable is as follows:

​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​
​​August 31,​May 31,
​​ ​ ​2026​ ​ ​2026
U.S. Government contracts:​​​​
Trade receivables​$36.3​$32.5
Unbilled receivables​11.7​8.8
​​48.0​41.3
All other customers:​​​​
Trade receivables​366.4​318.5
Unbilled receivables​22.0​27.0
​​388.4​345.5
​​$436.4​$386.8

6. Equity

Stock-Based Compensation

In July 2026, as part of our annual long-term stock incentive compensation, we granted 217,562 shares of performance-based restricted stock and 91,749 shares of time-based restricted stock to eligible employees. The grant date fair value per share for these shares was $129.47 (the closing price per share of our common stock on the grant date). We also granted 15,004 shares of time-based restricted stock to members of the Board of Directors with a grant date fair value per share of $109.99 (the closing price per share of our common stock on the grant date). No stock options were granted in fiscal 2027.

In July 2026, we granted 161,500 shares of restricted stock to our Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer which is tied to our stock price performance. The restricted stock grant vests on July 31, 2031 with the number of shares ultimately vesting based on our stock price meeting or exceeding certain stock price hurdle thresholds on or prior to July 31, 2031 which include stock prices of $175 (one-third of the shares will vest), $200 (an additional one-third of the shares will vest), and $250 (the remaining one-third of the shares will vest). The fair value of the grant was estimated at $15.0 million using a Monte Carlo simulation model for the market-based grant.

Expense charged to operations for restricted stock during each of the three-month periods ended August 31, 2026 and 2025 was $7.1 million and $4.2 million, respectively.

The total intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the three-month periods ended August 31, 2026 and 2025 was $1.1 million and $4.6 million, respectively. Expense charged to operations for stock options during the three-month periods ended August 31, 2026 and 2025 was $0.7 million and $1.1 million, respectively.

Stock-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period based on the equity’s grant date fair value. For participants who are or become retirement-eligible during the service period, stock-based compensation expense is recognized over the period ending on the date the participant becomes retirement-eligible.

Earnings per Share

The computation of basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. The computation of diluted earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus, when their effect is dilutive, incremental shares related to outstanding stock options.

At August 31, 2026, no stock options were determined to be anti-dilutive. The potential dilutive effect of 64,000 shares relating to stock options was excluded from the computation of weighted average common shares outstanding – diluted for the three-month period ended August 31, 2025. These shares would have been anti-dilutive because the exercise price of these options was greater than the average market price of the common shares for the period.

7. Inventories

9. Sale of Receivables

On February 23, 2018, we entered into a Purchase Agreement with Citibank N.A. (“Purchaser”) for the sale, from time to time, of certain accounts receivable due from certain customers (the “Purchase Agreement”). Under the Purchase Agreement, the maximum amount of receivables sold is limited to $150 million and Purchaser may, but is not required to, purchase the eligible receivables we offer to sell. The term of the Purchase Agreement runs through February 22, 2027, but, the Purchase Agreement may also be terminated earlier under certain circumstances. The term of the Purchase Agreement shall be automatically extended for annual terms unless either party provides advance notice that they do not intend to extend the term.

We haveno retained interests in the sold receivables, other than limited recourse obligations in certain circumstances, and only perform collection and administrative functions for the Purchaser. We account for these receivable transfers as sales under ASC 860,Transfers and Servicing, and de-recognize the sold receivables from our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. At August 31, 2026, we have utilized $22.1 million, which reduced the availability under the Purchase Agreement to $127.9 million.

During thethree-month periods ended August 31, 2026 and 2025, we sold $61.1 million and $49.2 million, respectively, of receivables under the Purchase Agreement and remitted $61.8 million and $46.2 million, respectively, to the Purchaser on their behalf. As of August 31, 2026 and May 31, 2026, we had collected cash of $2.9 million and $11.8 million, respectively, which was not yet remitted to the Purchaser as of those dates and was classified as Restricted cash on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

We recognize discounts on the sale of our receivables and other fees related to the Purchase Agreement in Other expense, net on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. We incurred discounts on the sale of our receivables of $0.2 million and $0.2 million during the three-month periods ended August 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Credit Agreement

On December 14, 2022, we entered into a new credit agreement with various financial institutions as lenders and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. as administrative agent for the lenders (the “Credit Agreement”) that included an unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) that we can draw upon for working capital and general corporate purposes. In conjunction with the Credit Agreement, we terminated our revolving credit facility under the credit agreement dated April 12, 2011, as amended, (the “2011 Credit Agreement”) with the outstanding borrowings under the 2011 Credit Agreement at the date of its termination rolled over to the Credit Agreement.

On March 1, 2024, we entered into an amendment (the “Revolver Amendment”) to our Credit Agreement, which governs the Company’s existing revolving credit facility (the revolving credit facility as amended by the Revolver Amendment, the “Amended Revolving Credit Facility”). Among other things, the Revolver Amendment (i) increased the aggregate commitments under the Amended Revolving Credit Facility to $825.0 million from $620 million under the Revolving Credit Facility, (ii) increased the maximum leverage ratio permitted under the financial covenants applicable to the Amended Revolving Credit Facility and (iii) included an additional pricing level that will increase the applicable interest rate margins on the Amended Revolving Credit Facility to 250 basis points (in the case of secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”)) and 150 basis points (in the case of Base Rate loans) if our adjusted total debt to EBITDA ratio exceeds 3.75:1.00.

Under certain circumstances, we may request an increase to the lending commitments under the Credit Agreement by an aggregate amount of up to $300 million, not to exceed $1,125 million in total. The Credit Agreement expires on December 14, 2027. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at an applicable variable rate based on SOFR plus 112.5 to 250 basis points based on certain financial measurements plus 10 basis points if a SOFR loan, or at the offered fluctuating Base Rate plus 12.5 to 150 basis points based on certain financial measurements if a Base Rate loan.

Borrowings outstanding under the Amended Revolving Credit Facility at August 31, 2026 were $185.0 million and there were $7.7 million of outstanding letters of credit, which reduced the availability of this facility to $632.3 million.

Our Credit Agreement requires us to comply with leverage and interest coverage ratios and comply with certain affirmative and negative covenants, including those relating to financial reporting and notification, compliance with applicable laws, and limitations on additional liens, indebtedness, acquisitions, investments and disposition of assets. Our Credit Agreement also requires our significant domestic subsidiaries to provide a guarantee of payment under the Credit Agreement.

Senior Notes – Original Issuance

On March 1, 2024, we issued $550.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.75% Senior Notes due 2029 (the “Notes”) to fund a portion of the purchase price for the acquisition of the Product Support business. The Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture (the “Base Indenture”), dated as of March 1, 2024, between us and Wilmington Trust, National Association (the “Trustee”), as trustee, and a First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of March 1, 2024 (together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), among us, the Note Guarantors (as defined below) and the Trustee.

Our domestic subsidiaries that guarantee the Amended Revolving Credit Facility (collectively, the “Note Guarantors”) guaranteed (the “Note Guarantees”) all of the Company’s obligations under the Notes and the Indenture. The Notes and the Note Guarantees have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

The Notes bear interest at a rate of 6.75% per year, payable semiannually in cash in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, commencing September 15, 2024. The Notes will mature on March 15, 2029. The Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at specified redemption prices if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on March 15 of the years indicated below:

​ · ​ · ​ · ​
2026​ ​ ​103.375%
2027101.688%
2028 and thereafter100.000%

The Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed by each of the Note Guarantors. The Notes and the Note Guarantees are the general unsecured obligations of us or each of the Note Guarantors and, as applicable, (i) rank equal in right of payment to all of our or such Note Guarantor’s existing and future senior indebtedness, (ii) rank senior in right of payment to all of our or such Note Guarantor’s obligations that are, by their terms expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes or the Note Guarantees, (iii) are effectively subordinated to all of our or such Note Guarantor’s secured indebtedness, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness and (iv) in the case of the Note Guarantees, are structurally subordinated to indebtedness and other liabilities of our subsidiaries that are not Note Guarantors.

The Indenture contains customary covenants, including limitations on the ability of us and our restricted subsidiaries to (i) incur debt, certain disqualified stock and preferred stock, (ii) create liens, (iii) pay dividends or distributions or redeem or repurchase equity, (iv) prepay subordinated debt or make certain investments, (v) transfer and sell assets, (vi) engage in consolidations, mergers or dispositions of all or substantially all of our or their assets, (vii) enter into agreements that restrict dividends, loans and other distributions from subsidiaries and (viii) enter into transactions with affiliates. These covenants are subject to a number of important exceptions and qualifications described in the Indenture. In addition, the Indenture contains a number of customary events of default, including, among other things, payment default, failure to comply with covenants or agreements contained in the Indenture or the Notes and certain provisions related to bankruptcy events.

Senior Notes – Subsequent Issuance

On August 14, 2025, we issued an additional $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of our Notes (the “Additional Notes”). The Additional Notes were issued under the existing Indenture and other than with respect to the date of issuance and the offering price, the Additional Notes have the same terms as the Notes.

Debt issuance costs of $2.5 million were incurred in connection with the Additional Notes which were issued at an original issuance premium 102% of their principal amount, or $3.0 million. The premium and debt issuance costs are amortized and recognized as interest expense using the effective interest rate method, or, when the results are not materially different, on a straight-line basis over the expected term of the related debt. The premium and debt issuance costs are classified within Long-term debt on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and are amortized into interest expense over the contractual term of the Notes.

At August 31, 2026, our variable and fixed rate debt had fair values that approximated their carrying values and were classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy as their fair values are determined based upon one or more significant unobservable inputs.

At August 31, 2026, we were in compliance with the financial and other covenants in our financing agreements.

11. Other Non-current Assets

Investment in AAR Sumisho Aviation Services (“ASAS”)

Our investments in joint ventures include a 50% ownership interest in a joint venture to provide aviation aftermarket supply chain solutions to Japanese defense and global commercial markets. Each of the partners in the ASAS joint venture have provided financial guarantees to third-parties to guarantee the payments for ASAS’s financing arrangements, including inventory purchases. No liabilities have been recognized on the outstanding guarantees. We are unable to estimate our maximum exposure under these guarantees as they are largely dependent on the volume of inventory purchase orders outstanding.

Our sales to the ASAS joint venture, including service fees earned by us on providing support to the ASAS joint venture, were $4.2 million and $5.0 million during the three-month periods ended August 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Investments in Aircraft Joint Ventures

Under the terms of servicing agreements with certain of our aircraft joint ventures, we provide administrative services and technical advisory services, including aircraft evaluations, oversight and logistical support of the maintenance process and records management. We also provide evaluation and inspection services prior to the purchase of an aircraft and remarketing services with respect to the divestiture of aircraft by the joint ventures. During the three-month periods ended August 31, 2026 and 2025, we received $0.6 million and $1.1 million, respectively, for such services.

Investment in xCelle Americas, LLC (“xCelle Americas JV”)

Our investments in joint ventures include a 49.9% ownership interest in a joint venture to provide component repair services including overhaul of nacelles on next generation aircraft. In March 2025, we provided a loan to xCelle Americas JV for $3.3 million with semi-annual principal payments over thefive-year term of the loan. Interest is payable semi-annually at SOFR plus 2.7%.

Our sales to the xCelle Americas JV were $0.2 million and $0.1 million during the three-month periods ended August 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Investment in xCelle Asia Limited (“xCelle Asia JV”)

In December 2025, we invested $7.1 million for a 49.9% interest in the xCelle Asia JV based in Thailand. The xCelle Asia JV operations include nacelle MRO services, including on-wing and on-site inspections and rotable support for next generation aircraft nacelles.

12. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

13. Sale of Landing Gear Overhaul Business

On December 19, 2024, we entered into an agreement to divest our LGO business to GA Telesis for $51 million subject to post-closing adjustments for working capital, cash, and debt. In the third quarter of fiscal 2025, the LGO assets and liabilities were reclassified to assets and liabilities held for sale and we recognized a non-cash, pre-tax impairment charge of $63.0 million to adjust the carrying value of the LGO assets to their estimated fair value. Goodwill of $14.6 million was also reclassified to assets held for sale and was included in the determination of the impairment charge.

The LGO business was reported within our Repair, Engineering, and Software segment. The divestiture did not represent a strategic shift that will have a major effect on our operations and financial results and, therefore, did not qualify for presentation as discontinued operations.

The sale closed in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 with net proceeds received of $48.0 million. We recognized $6.6 million of additional loss on the sale resulting from purchase price adjustments in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. We recognized a gain of $1.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 for the final resolution of the purchase price adjustments.

14. Business Segment Information

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, we changed our operating segment structure to realign our former Integrated Solutions segment which resulted in the following changes:

●Combined our government programs activities and our Mobility Systems business, previously reported as Expeditionary Services, into a new operating segment named Government Solutions;
●Re-positioned our software platform to our Repair and Engineering segment, which was renamed Repair, Engineering, and Software; and
●Legacy Commercial Programs, the remaining business unit within the Integrated Solutions segment, is now separately reported as its own operating segment.

Our operating segments are comprised of:

●Parts Supply, primarily consisting of our sales of used serviceable material (“USM”), including aircraft, engine and airframe parts and components and distribution of new parts (“Distribution”);
●Repair, Engineering, and Software primarily consists of MRO of airframes (“Airframe MRO”), MRO of other components (“Component MRO”), and our software platforms, including Trax, Aerostrat, Airvoyant, and Airinmar;
●Government Solutions primarily consists of our fleet management and operations of customer-owned aircraft, customized performance-based supply chain logistics programs in support of the U.S. Department of War (“DoW”), the U.S. Department of State (“DoS”) and foreign governments and the engineering, design, integration, manufacture, and repair of pallets, shelters, and containers; and
●Legacy Commercial Programs consists of asset-heavy flight hour-based component repair programs for commercial airlines and distribution of consumables and expendables inventory.

Our previously reported segment financial information has been recast to conform to our new segment structure. The change in our operating segments had no impact on our previously reported consolidated results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.

The accounting policies for the segments are the same as those described in Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 31, 2026. Cost of sales consists principally of the cost of products, including material used in manufacturing operations, direct labor, and overhead.

Our Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) is our Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer and he evaluates performance on our operating segments using operating income as the primary profitability measure. Our operating segments are aligned principally around differences in products and services and are consistent with how our CODM allocates resources, assesses performance, and makes decisions.

The Company hasnot aggregated operating segments for purposes of identifying reportable segments. In some cases, inter-segment sales are recorded at fair value, which results in intercompany profit on inter-segment sales that is eliminated in consolidation. Corporate selling, general, and administrative expenses include centralized functions such as legal, finance, treasury and human resources with a portion of the costs allocated to our operating segments.

Exit from Legacy Commercial Programs Operations

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, we announced our intention to exit our Legacy Commercial Programs business and expect the wind-down of this segment will take approximately three tofour years as the Legacy Commercial Programs’ existing customer contracts are terminated or exited and its rotable assets are sold. As the wind-down occurs, the fair value of the segment will progressively decrease which will ultimately result in the full impairment of the Legacy Commercial Programs goodwill of $16.4 million in a future period or periods.

Prior to fiscal 2027, our rotable assets which were previously supporting long-term commercial programs were depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. As part of the wind-down, the rotable assets are now being actively sold and not primarily supporting long-term programs. Effective June 1, 2026, we no longer recognize depreciation expense as the fair value of the rotable asset pool is in excess of its carrying value. During the three-month period ended August 31, 2025, we recognized depreciation expense of $1.7 million associated with the rotable asset pool. Sales of rotable assets were $29.0 million and $6.5 million during the three-month periods ended August 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

15. Legal Proceedings

We are involved in various claims and legal actions, including environmental matters, arising in the ordinary course of business. We are not a party to any material pending legal proceeding (including any governmental or environmental proceeding) other than routine litigation incidental to our business except for the following:

Russian Bankruptcy Litigation

During calendar years 2016 and 2017, certain subsidiaries of the Company purchased four engines from VIM-AVIA Airlines, LLC (“VIM-AVIA”), a company organized in Russia. Subsequent to the purchase of the engines, VIM-AVIA declared bankruptcy in Russian courts, and in November 2019, the receiver of the VIM-AVIA bankruptcy estate (“Receiver”) and one of the major creditors of VIM-AVIA filed a clawback action in the Arbitration Court of the Russian Republic of Tatarstan (the “Russian Trial Court”) against our subsidiaries alleging that the contracts entered into with VIM-AVIA in the 2016-2017 timeframe are invalid. The clawback action alleged that our subsidiaries owe the VIM-AVIA bankruptcy estate approximately $13 million, the alleged fair market value of thefour engines at the time of sale.

On March 3, 2023, the Russian Trial Court awarded a $1.8 million judgment against the Company relating to one engine, and dismissed all the other claims against the Company relating to the three remaining engines. The Company recognized a corresponding charge of $1.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2023. Further court proceedings and multiple appeals ensued in 2024 and 2025.

On September 26, 2023, the Russian Eleventh Arbitration Court of Appeal (the “Russian Appellate Court”) issued an order (i) affirming the Russian Trial Court’s adverse judgment against the Company relating to one of the four engines; (ii) reversing the Russian Trial Court’s dismissal of the claims relating to the remaining three engines; and (iii) awarding a judgment against the Company in the total amount of $13.0 million. During the first quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company recognized a charge for $11.2 million representing the judgment against the Company for the remaining three engines.

Ultimately, on October 11, 2024, the Russian Court of Cassation issued a ruling that effectively affirmed (i) the $1.8 million judgment against the Company relating to one of the four engines, and (ii) the dismissal of the Receiver’s clawback claims relating to the remaining three engines. On February 10, 2025, the Russian Supreme Court denied both the Company’s request and the Receiver’s request for review of the October 11, 2024 ruling. The $1.8 million judgment against the Company is final and not subject to further review in the Russian courts. The Receiver’s claims against the Company in the VIM-AVIA bankruptcy litigation have therefore been concluded and the $11.2 million liability was reversed in the third quarter of fiscal 2025.

The Company believes that the claims brought against it by the Receiver, and the resulting $1.8 million judgment against it, were a result of, among other things, a hostile business and legal environment for foreign companies in Russia, which has been caused by developments in the Russia/Ukraine conflict, including the imposition of a range of sanctions and export controls on Russian entities and individuals by the U.S. and its North Atlantic Treaty Organization allies.

In June 2026, the Receiver sold the $1.8 million judgment and related interest to two Russian nationals. As such, the purchasers, rather than the Receiver, may attempt to enforce the judgment against the Company. Although there can be no assurances, the Company also believes it would have strong defenses to any attempt that may be made to recognize and enforce the judgment outside of Russia. The Company’s ability to satisfy the judgment, in whole or in part, may be restricted by the Company’s obligation to comply with U.S. trade restrictions. As of August 31, 2026, our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet included a liability for the matter, including accrued interest, of $2.1 million classified as long-term in Other liabilities.

Performance Guarantee

In conjunction with the fiscal 2021 sale of our Composites business, we retained a performance guarantee to a customer of the Composites business (the “Customer”) under an existing contract providing flap track fairings on the A220 aircraft (“A220 Contract”). The term of the A220 Contract and our performance guarantee extend for the duration that A220 aircraft are in service and the Customer continues to maintain support for the A220 aircraft. The performance guarantee does not contain a financial cap.

In March 2022, the buyer of the Composites business (the “Buyer”) filed for bankruptcy and moved to have the bankruptcy court reject the A220 Contract. The Customer also notified us that it believes the Buyer has failed to timely deliver products in accordance with the terms of the A220 Contract and that the Customer has incurred losses related to the asserted non-compliance that the Customer believes is covered by our performance guarantee. To date, the Customer has provided us with limited details in support of the extent of the Customer’s claimed losses with respect to the A220 Contract and its contention that we may be responsible under our performance guarantee to reimburse the Customer for any portion of its claimed losses. The Customer filed suit against us during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 claiming damages of at least $32 million.

In this regard, while we are continuing to seek additional detail around the facts and legal basis underlying the claim for losses the Customer attributed to the A220 Contract and the Customer’s corresponding claim under the performance guarantee, we strongly disagree with the premise of the Customer’s claim based on the information available and known to us at this time, and we believe that we have numerous defenses available against this claim that we will vigorously pursue. While it is reasonably possible that we will incur a loss from the claim under the performance guarantee, we are unable to estimate the range of loss on this claim. There can be no assurance that the Customer’s claim under the performance guarantee will not have a material adverse effect on our operations, financial position and cash flows.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, we were awarded $1.5 million for reimbursement of a portion of our legal fees incurred in connection with the Buyer’s bankruptcy proceedings. We expect the Bankruptcy Court to release the funds to us in fiscal 2027.

Enforcement Proceeding in Nepal

As previously disclosed, the Company became aware via news reports that Nepal’s Commission for Investigation of Abuse of Authority (“CIAA”) apparently initiated a criminal proceeding in April 2024 against over 35 entities and individuals, including AAR International, Inc., a subsidiary of the Company. The charges alleged violations of Nepalese public procurement law and were related to the same transactions in Nepal that the Company previously self-reported, as described above. The proceeding also named a former AAR International, Inc. employee, as well as John Holmes in his capacity as president of AAR International, Inc. at the time of the alleged conduct.

AAR International, Inc. does not accept or admit these charges, and neither AAR International, Inc. nor Mr. Holmes appeared before the Special Court for several reasons including because the Company believes that any proceedings before the Special Court lack appropriate due process protections.

Based on news reports and a summary judgment from the Nepalese court, we understand that several defendants were convicted in connection with the charges, including AAR International, Inc. The conviction against AAR International, Inc. purportedly carries a fine of approximately $0.9 million as well as a prison sentence of 1.5 years. AAR understands that Mr. Holmes was not personally convicted, but because under Nepalese law it is the responsibility of the company’s principal business executive to accept the sentence of the company, Mr. Holmes has been assigned the company’s sentence by the court. The Company does not currently intend to participate in the proceedings, and does not intend to pay the fine, believing the proceedings and outcome lack due process. The Company does not believe that the outcome of these proceedings will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations, financial position, or cash flows. We recognized a liability for the $0.9 million fine in the second quarter of fiscal 2025.

16. Subsequent Event

Pending Acquisition of MRO Holdings

On September 28, 2026, we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire a 65% interest in MRO Holdings which is a leading global provider of aircraft MRO services. Under the terms of the agreement and subject to closing conditions, we will acquire MRO Holdings for approximately $3.0 billion including the repayment of $1.3 billion of MRO Holdings’ existing borrowings as part of the transaction.

We expect to fund the acquisition, including related expenses, through approximately $2.1 billion of new debt, approximately $780 million of our equity issued to existing MRO Holdings shareholders, and approximately $230 million of proceeds from a private investment in public equity (PIPE) offering. We have also secured a debt financing commitment to backstop the contemplated new financings. The acquisition is expected to close in the third quarter of fiscal 2027, subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals.

We will have the option to acquire the remaining 35% ownership interest of MRO Holdings with 5% exercisable at any time within six years of the closing of the acquisition and the remaining 30% exercisable inthree equal tranches of 10% on the second, third, and fourth anniversaries of the closing of the initial acquisition. We will control the MRO Holdings’ Board of Managers and expect to consolidate its financial results. Transaction costs associated with the transaction of $7.3 million were expensed as incurred during the first quarter of fiscal 2027.
