Summary

  • Q2 sales of $1.60 billion and net income of $97.3 million pushed StandardAero to lift its 2026 revenue outlook to $6.375 billion-$6.5 billion.
  • LEAP and CFM56 profitability marked a key shift in the quarter, easing concern that the engine programs would keep dragging on margins.
  • A $180 million license expansion is also expected to boost recurring adjusted EBITDA, reinforcing the company’s push toward higher-quality revenue.
  • Supply-chain constraints and engine shipment delays still threaten execution, even as the stronger quarter supports StandardAero’s longer-term growth and margin case.
