AerCap Holdings N.V. Reports First Quarter 2013 Financial Results
Adjusted net income and earnings per share for the first quarter of 2013 was $68.0 million and $0.60, respectively. During the first quarter of 2013:
· $0.4 billion of aircraft were purchased,
· $0.1 billion of aircraft were sold,
· $0.1 billion of financing transactions were completed,
· and 34 aircraft transactions were executed.
Amsterdam, Netherlands; May 7, 2013 - AerCap Holdings N.V. (the “Company” or “AerCap”) (NYSE: AER) today announced the results of its operations for the first quarter ended March 31, 2013.
First quarter 2013 Financial Highlights
· First quarter 2013 reported net income was $67.5 million, compared with $65.0 million for the same period in 2012. First quarter 2013 reported basic and diluted earnings per share was $0.59, compared with $0.46 for the same period in 2012.
· First quarter 2013 adjusted net income was $68.0 million, compared with $69.1 million for the same period in 2012. First quarter 2013 adjusted earnings per share was $0.60, compared with $0.49 for the same period in 2012.
· Net interest margin earned on lease assets, or net spread, was $152.9 million in the first quarter of 2013 compared with $174.4 million for the same period in 2012. Net interest margin as a percentage of average lease assets was 8.3% for first quarter 2013 as compared with 8.8% for the same period in 2012. The decrease is primarily attributable to the sale of the ALS portfolio in the fourth quarter of 2012.
· Total owned assets were $8.6 billion as of March 31, 2013 and total managed aircraft were valued at $2.1 billion(a). The total owned assets decreased by 7% from $9.3 billion as of March 31, 2012, which was primarily attributable to the sale of the ALS portfolio (now a managed asset), partially offset by new aircraft deliveries.
1
· Total committed aircraft purchases were $1.6 billion as of March 31, 2013, relating to 34 aircraft including purchase options, which are fully placed on long term leases.
· The debt to equity ratio was 2.6 to 1 at March 31, 2013, unchanged from March 31, 2012.
· Unrestricted cash as of March 31, 2013 was $375.4 million. In addition, an undrawn working capital facility of $290 million was available.
(a) Includes aircraft under our management and owned by our non-consolidated joint ventures. The aircraft value was based on the average appraised value provided by three external appraisers between September 2012 and March 2013.
Aengus Kelly, CEO of AerCap, commented: “The combination of our asset sales over the course of the last 12 months at or above book value and subsequent purchase of our shares at a deep discount to book value has driven our earnings per share up by 22% year on year. This disciplined approach to both investing in and divesting of aircraft is a key pillar of AerCap’s industry leading results.”
AerCap’s CFO, Keith Helming, added: “We are encouraged by the Company’s financial performance in the first quarter of 2013, as the Company’s liquidity profile remains robust. With a total of $655 million of unrestricted cash and availability on our undrawn credit facility, the Company is extremely well positioned to take advantage of accretive investment opportunities that may arise throughout the balance of 2013.”

First quarter 2013 adjusted earnings per share increased 22% over the same period 2012, driven primarily by the share repurchases completed in 2012.
First quarter 2013 adjusted net income was slightly lower than first quarter 2012, driven by the sale of our ALS portfolio and other aircraft sales which were completed since the first quarter of 2012, partially offset by income generated from new aircraft purchases completed over the same period.
The net impact from aircraft sales and purchases over the past year also resulted in decreases in basic lease rents and net spread in the first quarter of 2013 as compared to the same period in 2012.

Notes Regarding Financial Information Presented In This Press Release
The financial information presented in this press release is not audited.
The following is a definition of non-GAAP measures used in this press release and a reconciliation of such measure to the most closely related GAAP measure:
Adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share. These measures are determined by adding non-cash charges related to the mark-to-market losses on our interest rate caps and share based compensation during the applicable period, net of related tax benefits, to GAAP net income. The average number of shares is based on a daily average.
4
In addition to GAAP net income and earnings per share, we believe these measures may provide investors with supplemental information regarding our operational performance and may further assist investors in their understanding of our operational performance in relation to past and future reporting periods. We use interest rate caps to allow us to benefit from decreasing interest rates and protect against the negative impact of rising interest rates on our floating rate debt. Management determines the appropriate level of caps in any period with reference to the mix of floating and fixed cash flows from our lease, debt and other contracts. We do not apply hedge accounting to our interest rate caps. As a result, we recognize the change in fair value of the interest rate caps in our income statement during each period.
Following is a reconciliation of adjusted net income to net income for the three month periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012:

Net interest margin, or net spread (refer to second table under Revenue and Net Spread section of this press release). This measure is the difference between basic lease rents and interest expense excluding the impact from the mark-to-market of interest rate caps. We believe this measure may further assist investors in their understanding of the changes and trends related to the earnings of our leasing activities. This measure reflects the impact from changes in the number of aircraft leased, lease rates, utilization rates, as well as the impact from the use of interest rate caps instead of swaps to hedge our interest rate risk.
