Previous wording

Economic, civil, military and political uncertainty exists and may increase in regions where we operate and derive our revenue. Various countries in which we operate are experiencing and may continue to experience military action and civil and political unrest. We have assets in the emerging market economies of Eastern Europe, including some assets in Russia. In late February 2022, Russian military forces launched significant military action against Ukraine. The conflict remains ongoing and sustained conflict and disruption in the region is likely. The impact to Russia and Ukraine, as well as actions taken by other countries, including new and stricter export controls and sanctions by Canada, the United Kingdom, the European Union, the U.S. and other countries and organizations against officials, individuals, regions, and industries in Russia and Ukraine, and each country’s potential response to such sanctions, tensions and military actions, could have a material adverse effect on our business and delay or prevent us from accessing certain of our assets. We are actively monitoring the security of our remaining assets in the region.

Economic, civil, military and political uncertainty exists and may increase in regions where we operate and derive our revenue. Various countries in which we operate are experiencing and may continue to experience military action and civil and political unrest. We have assets in the emerging market economies of Eastern Europe and in the Middle East, including some assets in Russia. In late February 2022, Russian military forces launched significant military action against Ukraine. The conflict remains ongoing and sustained conflict and disruption in the region is likely. Following missile strikes in Iran in February 2026, there has been increased instability in the Middle East, and global oil prices have been fluctuating. The related regional impacts, as well as actions taken by other countries, including new and stricter export controls and sanctions by other countries and organizations against officials, individuals, regions, and industries in Russia and Ukraine and Iran, and each country’s potential response to such sanctions, tensions and military actions, could have a material adverse effect on our business and delay or prevent us from accessing certain of our assets. We are actively monitoring the security of our remaining assets in the regions.

Governmental agencies throughout the world, including the Federal Aviation Administration (“FAA”) and Transport Canada, prescribe standards and qualification requirements for aircraft components, including virtually all commercial airline and general aviation products. Specific regulations vary from country to country, although compliance with FAA requirements generally satisfies regulatory requirements in other countries. If any material authorization or approval qualifying us to supply our products is revoked or suspended, then sale of the product would be prohibited by law, which would have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Certain of our assets are currently subject to liens under our third amended and restated revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). In the event of a default under the Revolving Credit Facility, the lenders thereunder would be permitted to take possession of or sell such assets. In addition, our currently owned assets and assets that we purchase in the future may be subject to other liens based on the industry practices relating to such assets. Until they are discharged, these liens could impair our ability to repossess, re-lease or sell our assets, and to the extent our lessees do not comply with their obligations to discharge any liens on the applicable assets, we may find it necessary to pay the claims secured by such liens in order to repossess such assets. Such payments could materially adversely affect our operating results and growth prospects.

As of September 30, 2025, we had $3.4 billion of indebtedness outstanding. Our ability to make payments on our indebtedness depends on our ability to generate cash flow in the future. This ability, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control. If we do not generate sufficient free cash flow to satisfy our debt obligations, including interest payments and the payment of principal at maturity, we may have to undertake alternative financing plans, such as refinancing or restructuring our debt, selling assets, reducing or delaying capital investments or seeking to raise additional capital. We cannot provide assurance that any refinancing would be possible, that any assets could be sold, or, if sold, of the timeliness and amount of proceeds realized from those sales, that additional financing could be obtained on acceptable terms, if at all, or that additional financing would be permitted under the terms of our various debt instruments then in effect. Furthermore, our ability to refinance would depend upon the condition of the finance and credit markets. Our inability to generate sufficient free cash flow to satisfy our debt obligations, or to refinance our obligations on commercially reasonable terms or on a timely basis, would materially affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

On December 30, 2024, we announced the launch of a Strategic Capital Initiative in collaboration with third-party institutional investors. The first partnership under the initiative, the 2025 Partnership, focuses on acquiring 737NG and A320ceo aircraft. The Strategic Capital Initiative, and its related partnerships, allow us to maintain an asset-light business model while the partnerships actively acquire on-lease narrowbody aircraft at scale. The 2025 Partnership, and follow-on partnerships, will be the primary buyer of on-lease 737NG and A320ceo aircraft. We provide aircraft management services to the 2025 Partnership, and the Company receives customary, market-based compensation for providing such services. The Company has also made a minority investment and will make future investments in the 2025 Partnership. We expect to provide aircraft management services to, and make minority investments in, future partnerships. Our Strategic Capital Initiative is subject to certain risks, which include, but are not limited to:

Previous wording

•Market Risk. Difficult market conditions may adversely affect our Strategic Capital Initiative in many ways, including by negatively impacting the 2025 Partnership and future partnerships’ ability to raise or deploy capital, lowering management fee income and incentive income, increasing the cost of financial instruments and executing transactions and adversely affecting the performance of the partnerships’ investments. In addition, market or idiosyncratic factors may make it difficult to raise new capital from investors into the Strategic Capital Initiative. Any of these circumstances could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

In addition, potential conflicts of interest may arise with respect to our decisions regarding how to allocate investment opportunities between us and partnerships in our Strategic Capital Initiative. Allocating investment opportunities appropriately frequently involves significant and subjective judgments. Investors in our Strategic Capital Initiative and our shareholders may perceive conflicts of interest regarding such investment decisions, which could harm our reputation with such investors and our shareholders.

Our customers and lessees operate in highly regulated industries such as aviation. A number of our contractual arrangements - for example, our leasing aircraft engines to third-party operators-require the operator (our lessee) to obtain specific governmental or regulatory licenses, consents or approvals. These include consents for certain payments under such arrangements and for the export, import or re-export of the related assets. Failure by our lessee or, in certain circumstances, by us, to obtain certain licenses and approvals could negatively affect our ability to conduct our business. In addition, the shipment of goods, services and technology across international borders subjects the operation of our assets to international trade laws and regulations. Moreover, many countries, including the United States, control the export and re-export of certain goods, services and technology and impose related export recordkeeping and reporting obligations. Governments also may impose economic sanctions against certain countries, persons and other entities that may restrict or prohibit transactions involving such countries, persons and entities. If any such regulations or sanctions affect the asset operators that are our customers, lessees, our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows may be materially adversely affected.

Under some environmental laws in the United States and certain other countries, strict liability may be imposed on the owners or operators of assets, which could render us liable for environmental and natural resource damages without regard to negligence or fault on our part. We could incur substantial costs, including cleanup costs, fines and third-party claims for property damage and personal injury, as a result of violations of or liabilities under environmental laws and regulations in connection with our or our lessee’s or charterer’s current or historical operations, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. In addition, a variety of new legislation is being enacted, or considered for enactment, at the federal, state and local levels relating to greenhouse gas emissions and climate change. While there has historically been a lack of consistent climate change legislation, as climate change concerns continue to grow, further legislation and regulations are expected to continue in areas such as greenhouse gas emissions control, emission disclosure requirements and building codes or other infrastructure requirements that impose energy efficiency standards. Government mandates, standards or regulations intended to mitigate or reduce greenhouse gas emissions or projected climate change impacts could result in increased energy and transportation costs, and increased compliance expenses and other financial obligations to meet permitting or development requirements that we may be unable to fully recover (due to market conditions or other factors), any of which could result in reduced profits and adversely affect our results of operations. In addition, there also is an increasing number of state-level anti-ESG initiatives in the U.S. that may conflict with other regulatory requirements, resulting in regulatory uncertainty. While we typically maintain liability insurance coverage and typically require our lessees to provide us with indemnity against certain losses, the insurance coverage is subject to large deductibles, limits on maximum coverage and significant exclusions and may not be sufficient or available to protect against any or all liabilities and such indemnities may not cover or be sufficient to protect us against losses arising from environmental damage. In addition, changes to environmental standards or regulations in the industries in which we operate could limit the economic life of the assets we acquire or reduce their value, and also require us to make significant additional investments in order to maintain compliance, which would negatively impact our cash flows and results of operations.

Parts of our business depend on the secure operation of our IT systems and the IT systems of our third-party providers to manage, process, store, and transmit information associated with aircraft leasing. We have, from time to time, experienced threats to our data and systems, including malware and computer virus attacks. A cyberattack that bypasses our IT security systems or the IT security systems of our third-party providers, causing an IT security breach, could adversely impact our daily operations and lead to the loss of sensitive information, including our own proprietary information and that of our customers, suppliers and employees. Such losses could harm our reputation and result in competitive disadvantages, litigation, regulatory enforcement actions, lost revenues, additional costs and liabilities. While we devote substantial resources to maintaining adequate levels of cybersecurity, our resources and technical sophistication may not be adequate to prevent all types of cyberattacks.

We believe that the Company was treated as a PFIC in the taxable years ended December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2023 (collectively with any other taxable years in which we are treated as a PFIC, the “PFIC Years”). Although we do not believe the Company was a PFIC in the taxable year ended December 31, 2024 and do not expect it to be a PFIC thereafter, no assurance can be given in that regard. In addition, the Company could be treated as a CFC for U.S. federal income tax purposes for any given taxable year.

If you are a U.S. person and do not make a valid qualified electing fund (“QEF”) election with respect to us and each of our PFIC subsidiaries, then, unless we are a CFC and you own 10% or more of our shares (by vote or value), you would generally be subject to special deferred tax with respect to certain distributions on our shares, any gain realized on a disposition of our shares, and certain other events. These rules generally continue to apply to each shareholder who held our shares during any PFIC Year (“PFIC Holders”) and has not made either (i) a valid QEF election for the first PFIC Year in which such shareholder held our shares or (ii) certain other elections with respect to our shares under the PFIC rules, even if the Company is not treated as a PFIC for any subsequent taxable year. The effect of this deferred tax could be materially adverse to you. Alternatively, if you are a PFIC Holder and make a valid QEF election for us and each of our PFIC subsidiaries, or if we are a CFC and you own 10% or more of our shares (by vote or value), you will generally not be subject to those taxes, but could recognize taxable income with respect to our shares in excess of any distributions that we make to you, thus giving rise to so called “phantom income” and to a potential out-of-pocket tax liability. No assurances can be given that any given shareholder will be able to make a valid QEF election with respect to us or our PFIC subsidiaries. See “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations —Considerations for U.S. Holders—PFIC Status and Related Tax Considerations.”

If we are treated as engaged in a trade or business in the United States, the portion of our net income, if any, that is “effectively connected” with such trade or business would be subject to U.S. federal income taxation at maximum corporate rates, currently 21%. In addition, we may be subject to an additional U.S. federal branch profits tax on our effectively connected earnings and profits at a rate of 30%. The imposition of such taxes could adversely affect our business and would result in decreased cash available for distribution to our shareholders. Although we (or one or more of our non-U.S. corporate subsidiaries) are expected to be treated as engaged in a U.S. trade or business, it is currently expected that only a small portion of our taxable income will be treated as effectively connected with such U.S. trade or business. However, no assurance can be given that the amount of effectively connected income will not be greater than currently expected, whether due to a change in our operations or otherwise.

Some of our subsidiaries are subject to income, withholding or other taxes in certain non-U.S. jurisdictions by reason of their jurisdiction of incorporation, activities and operations, where their assets are used or where the lessees of their assets (or others in possession of their assets) are located, and it is also possible that taxing authorities in any such jurisdictions could assert that we or our subsidiaries are subject to greater taxation than we currently face or otherwise anticipate. Further, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (the “OECD”) is conducting a project focused on base erosion and profit shifting in international structures, which seeks to establish certain international standards for taxing the worldwide income of multinational companies. In addition, the OECD, together with other countries comprising the membership of the “Inclusive Framework,” is working on a “BEPS 2.0” initiative, which is aimed at (i) shifting taxing rights to the jurisdiction of the consumer and (ii) ensuring all companies pay a global minimum tax. Numerous countries, including European Union member states, have enacted or are expected to enact minimum tax legislation, and other countries may enact such legislation in the future. As a result of these developments, the tax laws of certain countries in which we and our affiliates do business have increased and may further increase our liabilities for taxes (and possibly interest and penalties), which could harm our business, cash flows, results of operations and financial position. For instance, Bermuda has enacted a corporate tax regime with a 15% rate to which the Company is subject beginning January 1, 2025. The impact on the Company of these legislative and regulatory changes will depend on the timing of implementation, the exact nature of each country's legislation, guidance and regulations thereon and their application by tax authorities either prospectively or retrospectively. In addition, a portion of certain of our non-U.S. corporate subsidiaries’ income is treated as effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business and is accordingly subject to U.S. federal income tax or may be subject to gross-basis U.S. withholding tax. It is possible that the IRS could assert that a greater portion of our or any such non-U.S. subsidiaries’ income is effectively connected income that should be subject to U.S. federal income tax or subject to withholding tax.

The ultimate effects of the OBBA and these tariff policies remain uncertain and may differ from our current expectations.
