For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company evaluated its deferred tax assets and determined, based on the weight of available evidence, that it is more likely than not that such deferred tax assets will be realized. As a result, the valuation allowance was fully released as of December 31, 2025. Valuation allowances of $ 5.2  million and $ 18.6  million were recognized as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, res pectively, related to certain deductible temporary differences and net operating loss carryforwards.
A summary of the changes in the valuation allowance is as follows:

December 31,
2025 2024 2023
Valuation allowance at beginning of period $ 5,228   $ 18,599   $ 27,565  
Change due to current year losses —   885   855  
Change due to current year releases ( 5,228 ) ( 14,256 ) ( 9,821 )
Valuation allowance at end of period $ —   $ 5,228   $ 18,599  

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards for Irish income tax purposes of $ 51.0  million, which can be carried forward indefinitely against future business income, and $ 2.0  million of net operating loss carryforward for Canadian income tax purpose, which will begin to expire in the year 2044. The utilization of the net operating loss carryforwards to reduce future income taxes will depend on the relevant corporate subsidiary’s ability to generate sufficient taxable income prior to the expiration of the carryforward period, if any. In addition, the maximum annual use of net operating loss carryforwards may be limited after certain changes in share ownership.
As of and for the period ended December 31, 2025, the Company had not established a liability for uncertain tax positions as no such positions existed. In general, the Company’s tax returns and the tax returns of its corporate subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal, state, local and foreign income tax examinations by tax authorities. Generally, the Company is not subject to examination by taxing authorities for tax years prior to 2021. The Company does not believe that it is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change within 12 months of the reporting date.

12. AFFILIATE TRANSACTIONS AND FORMER MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT
Strategic Capital Initiative – 2025 Partnership
On December 30, 2024, the Company announced the launch of its Strategic Capital Initiative in collaboration with third-party institutional investors. As part of the first partnership under the initiative, certain subsidiaries of the Company entered into an Aircraft Sale and Purchase Agreement, dated December 30, 2024, and a Beneficial Interest Sale and Purchase Agreement, dated December 30, 2024 (together, and as each may be amended from time to time, the “Aircraft Sale and Purchase Agreements”), pursuant to which the SPVs of the 2025 Partnership would acquire 45 on-lease 737NG and A320ceo aircraft for an aggregate net purchase price of approximately $ 500.0  million. The SPVs have entered into agreements with third-party institutional investors for capital commitments to the SPVs. The Company also made a minority capital commitment and will make additional commitments to the 2025 Partnership in the same proportion relative to additional third-party institutional investors. In addition, any profit participation distributions generated from investments made by the 2025 Partnership will be paid to a subsidiary of the Company as the Strategic Capital Initiative’s servicer (i.e., general partner) as “profit participation.”
The 2025 Partnership completed its fundraise in October 2025 with $ 2.0  billion of equity commitments.
During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, on behalf of the 2025 Partnership, the Company paid refundable deposits of $ 26.4 million and $ 19.3 million to unrelated, third-parties on future purchases of aircraft, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, the 2025 Partnership fully reimbursed the Company $ 45.7 million in refundable deposits.
The Company, along with certain subsidiaries of the SPVs, has entered into a MRE agreement that requires the Company to sell serviceable engines and modules and purchase unserviceable engines and modules from the SPVs when aircraft controlled by the SPVs need such serviceable engines and modules to fulfill their obligations under an aircraft lease. Under this agreement, the Company sells CFM56-5B, CFM56-7B and V2500 commercial aircraft engines and related modules to the SPVs and purchase unserviceable engines and modules for a net cash purchase price. The net cash purchase price received by the Company is contractual and customary market-based compensation for fulfilling such performance obligations. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded $ 335.8  million of MRE Contract revenue, respectively, for the sale and purchase of such engines to and from the 2025 Partnership.
The Company provides aircraft management services to the 2025 Partnership, and receives customary, market-based compensation for providing such services, which is included in Other revenue on the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Former Management Agreement
On May 28, 2024, the Company entered into definitive agreements with the Former Manager and Master GP to internalize the Company’s management function. As part of the termination of the Management Agreement, the Company (i) paid the Former Manager (for itself and on behalf of the Master GP, as applicable) the Cash Consideration, the compensation accrued and payable, but not yet paid, under the Management Agreement and the expenses that were reimbursable, but not yet reimbursed, under the Management Agreement; (ii) issued to the Former Manager (for itself and on behalf of the Master GP, as applicable) the Share Consideration; and (iii) purchased from Master GP all of its partnership interests in FTAI Aviation Holdco Ltd., a subsidiary of the Company, in exchange for $ 30  thousand. Following the Internalization, the Company no longer pays management fees or incentive distributions to the Former Manager and Master GP.
In connection with the termination of the Management Agreement, the Company also entered into a Transition Services Agreement with the Former Manager. Under the Transition Services Agreement, the Former Manager was required to continue to provide the Company and its affiliates with all of the Services for a transition period through October 31, 2024, during which the Company procured replacements for the Services. In addition, the Former Manager was required to continue to provide the services that are reasonably required by the Company to prepare its quarterly and annual financial statements until May 31, 2025. The Services were provided to the Company for a fee equal to the Former Manager’s cost of providing the Services, including the allocated cost of, among other things, overhead, employee wages and compensation, rent and related real estate expenses and actually incurred out-of-pocket expenses, plus a mark-up of ten percent ( 10 %).
Prior to the Internalization, the Former Manager was paid annual fees in exchange for advising the Company on various aspects of its business, formulating its investment strategies, arranging for the acquisition and disposition of assets, arranging for financing, monitoring performance, and managing the Company’s day-to-day operations, inclusive of all costs incidental thereto. In addition, the Former Manager was reimbursed for various expenses incurred by the Former Manager on the Company’s behalf, including the costs of legal, accounting and other administrative activities. Additionally, the Company entered into certain incentive allocation arrangements with Master GP, which owned approximately 0.01 % of FTAI Aviation Holdco Ltd. (a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company).
The Former Manager was entitled to a management fee and reimbursement of certain expenses. The management fee was determined by taking the average value of total equity (excluding non-controlling interests) determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with U.S. GAAP at the end of the two most recently completed months multiplied by an annual rate of 1.50 %, which was payable monthly in arrears in cash.
Prior to the Internalization and the termination of the Management Agreement on May 28, 2024, Master GP, was entitled to incentive allocations (comprised of income incentive allocation and capital gains incentive allocation, defined below). The income incentive allocation was calculated and distributable quarterly in arrears based on the pre-incentive allocation net income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter (the “Income Incentive Allocation”). For this purpose, pre-incentive allocation net income means, with respect to a calendar quarter, net income attributable to shareholders during such quarter calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP excluding the Company’s pro rata share of (1) realized or unrealized gains and losses, and (2) certain non-cash or one-time items, and (3) any other adjustments as may be approved by the Company’s independent directors. Pre-incentive allocation net income did not include any Income Incentive Allocation or Capital Gains Incentive Allocation (described below) paid to Master GP during the relevant quarter.
Prior to the Internalization, one of the Company’s subsidiaries allocated and distributed to Master GP an Income Incentive Allocation with respect to its pre-incentive allocation net income in each calendar quarter as follows: (1) no Income Incentive Allocation in any calendar quarter in which pre-incentive allocation net income, expressed as a rate of return on the average value of the Company’s net equity capital (excluding non-controlling interests) at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters, does not exceed 2 % for such quarter ( 8 % annualized); (2) 100 % of pre-incentive allocation net income with respect to that portion of such pre-incentive allocation net income, if any, that is equal to or exceeds 2 % but does not exceed 2.2223 % for such quarter; and (3) 10 % of the amount of pre-incentive allocation net income, if any, that exceeds 2.2223 % for such quarter. These calculations were prorated for any period of less than three months.
Prior to the Internalization, Capital Gains Incentive Allocation was calculated and distributable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year and was equal to 10 % of the Company’s pro rata share of cumulative realized gains from the date of the IPO through the end of the applicable calendar year, net of the Company’s pro rata share of cumulative realized or unrealized losses, the cumulative non-cash portion of equity-based compensation expenses and all realized gains upon which prior performance-based Capital Gains Incentive Allocation payments were made to Master GP.

The expenses required to be paid by the Company included, but were not limited to, issuance and transaction costs incident to the acquisition, disposition and financing of its assets, legal and auditing fees and expenses, the compensation and expenses of its independent directors, the costs associated with the establishment and maintenance of any credit facilities and other indebtedness of ours (including commitment fees, legal fees, closing costs, etc.), expenses associated with other securities offerings of ours, costs and expenses incurred in contracting with third parties (including affiliates of the Former Manager), the costs of printing and mailing proxies and reports to its shareholders, costs incurred by the Former Manager or its affiliates for travel on the Company’s behalf, costs associated with any computer software or hardware that was used by the Company, costs to obtain liability insurance to indemnify the Company’s directors and officers and the compensation and expenses of the Company’s transfer agent.
The Company paid or reimbursed the Former Manager and its affiliates for performing certain legal, accounting, due diligence tasks and other services that outside professionals or outside consultants otherwise would perform, provided that such costs and reimbursements were no greater than those which would be paid to outside professionals or consultants. The Former Manager was responsible for all of its other costs incident to the performance of its duties under the Management Agreement, including compensation of the Former Manager’s employees, rent for facilities and other “overhead” expenses; the Company did not reimburse the Former Manager for these expenses.
The following table summarizes the Company’s reimbursements to the Former Manager:

Acquisition and transaction expenses 122   2,137   678  
Total $ 369   $ 8,925   $ 7,815  

Upon the successful completion of an offering of the Company’s ordinary shares or other equity securities (including securities issued as consideration in an acquisition), the Company granted the Former Manager options to purchase ordinary shares in an amount equal to  10 % of the number of ordinary shares being sold in the offering (or if the issuance relates to equity securities other than the Company’s ordinary shares, options to purchase a number of ordinary shares equal to  10 % of the gross capital raised in the equity issuance divided by the fair market value of a ordinary share as of the date of issuance), with an exercise price equal to the offering price per share paid by the public or other ultimate purchaser or attributed to such securities in connection with an acquisition (or the fair market value of a ordinary share as of the date of the equity issuance if it relates to equity securities other than the Company’s ordinary shares). Any ultimate purchaser of ordinary shares for which such options are granted may have been an affiliate of the Former Manager.

13. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The key factors used to identify the reportable segments are the organization and alignment of the Company’s internal operations and the nature of its products and services. The Company’s two reportable segments are (i) Aerospace Products and (ii) Aviation Leasing. The Aerospace Products segment, through the Company’s maintenance facilities and joint ventures, among other investments, develops and manufactures, repairs/refurbishes and sells aircraft engines and aftermarket components for the CFM56-7B, CFM56-5B and V2500 commercial aircraft engines. The Aviation Leasing segment owns and manages aviation assets, including aircraft and aircraft engines, which it leases and sells to lessees. During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company changed the composition of its operating segments to include V2500 engines within the Aerospace Products segment.
Corporate and Other primarily consists of debt, unallocated corporate general and administrative expenses, internalization fee and management fees and incentive compensation pursuant to the Management Agreement prior to the Internalization effective May 28, 2024. Additionally, Corporate and Other also includes results from an offshore energy business, which consists of equipment that support offshore oil and gas activities and production. The Company previously owned two offshore vessels that were sold in the fourth quarter of 2024.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies; however, financial information presented by segment includes the impact of intercompany eliminations. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer is the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”). Segment information is presented in the same manner that the CODM reviews the operating results in assessing performance and allocating resources. The CODM evaluates performance for each reportable segment based on net income (loss) attributable to shareholders and is used to monitor budget vs. actual results.
The CODM determined that segment asset information is not a key factor in measuring performance or allocating resources. Therefore, segment asset information is not included in the tables below as it is not provided to or reviewed by the CODM.
The following tables set forth certain information, which include all significant expenses reviewed by the CODM, for each reportable segment:

14. EARNINGS PER SHARE AND EQUITY
Basic earnings per ordinary share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing net income (loss) attributable to shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding, plus any participating securities. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing net income attributable to shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding, plus any participating securities and potentially dilutive securities. Potentially dilutive securities are calculated using the treasury stock method.
The calculation of basic and diluted EPS is presented below.

There were no shares excluded from the calculation of Diluted EPS for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively, because the impact would be anti-dilutive.
Ordinary shares issued to certain directors as compensation were 1,869 , 6,148 and 26,287 for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Ordinary Shares
In May 2024, in connection with the Internalization and termination of the Management Agreement, the Company issued 1,866,949 ordinary shares, par value $ 0.01 per share, at a price of $ 80.34 per share, to its Former Manager.
Preferred Shares
In March 2023, in a public offering, the Company issued 2,600,000 shares of 9.50 % Fixed-Rate Reset Series D Cumulative Perpetual Redeemable Preferred Shares (“Series D Preferred Shares”), par value $ 0.01 per share, with a liquidation preference of $ 25.00 per share for net proceeds before expenses of $ 63.0  million .
In October 2024, the Company redeemed in full the outstanding 4,180,000 8.25 % Fixed-to-Floating Rate Series A Cumulative Perpetual Redeemable Preferred Shares at a redemption price equal to $ 25.00 per share in cash, plus $ 1.6  million of accumulated and unpaid distributions thereon to, but not including, the redemption date of October 29, 2024.
In February 2025, the Company redeemed in full the outstanding 4,940,000 8.00 % Fixed-to-Floating Rate Series B Cumulative Perpetual Redeemable Preferred Shares at a redemption price equal to $ 25.00 per share in cash, plus $ 2.4  million of accumulated and unpaid distributions thereon to, but not including, the redemption date of February 16, 2025.

15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
In the normal course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries may be involved in various claims, legal proceedings, or may enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. Within the Company’s offshore energy business, a lessee did not fulfill its obligation under its charter arrangement, therefore the Company is pursuing rights afforded to it under the charter and the range of potential losses against the obligation is $ 0.0  million to $ 3.3  million. The Company’s maximum exposure under other arrangements is unknown as no additional claims have been made. The Company believes the risk of loss in connection with such arrangements is remote.
Internalization — During the second quarter of 2024, the Company entered into the Internalization Agreement with the Former Manager and Master GP. Pursuant to the Internalization Agreement, the Management Agreement was terminated effective May 28, 2024, except that certain indemnification and other obligations survive, and the Company was no longer required to pay management fees or incentive distributions with respect to any period thereafter. As a result of the Internalization, the Company ceased to be externally managed and operates as an internally managed company. In connection with the termination of the Management Agreement, the Company (i) agreed to pay the Former Manager (for itself and on behalf of the Master GP, as applicable) the Cash Consideration, the compensation accrued and payable, but not yet paid, under the Management Agreement

and the expenses that were reimbursable, but not yet reimbursed, under the Management Agreement; (ii) issued to the Former Manager (for itself and on behalf of the Master GP, as applicable) the Share Consideration; and (iii) purchased from Master GP all of its partnership interests in FTAI Aviation Holdco Ltd., a subsidiary of the Company, in exchange for $ 30  thousand.

16. RESTRUCTURING CHARGES
In connection with the Internalization and termination of the Management Agreement, the Company agreed to pay a total of $ 300.0  million to its Former Manager (for itself and on behalf of the Master GP, as applicable). In May 2024, in connection with the Internalization and termination of the Management Agreement, the Company issued 1,866,949 ordinary shares valued at $ 150.0  million. The remaining balance of $ 150.0  million was paid in cash on June 17, 2024. The restructuring charge paid in connection with the Internalization and termination of the Management Agreement is reflected in Internalization Fee to Affiliate expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2024. See Note 12 for additional discussion. There were no restructuring charges recorded for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2023.

17. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On February 24, 2026, our Board of Directors declared a cash dividend on our ordinary shares and eligible participating securities of $ 0.40 per share for the quarter ended December 31, 2025, payable on March 23, 2026 to the holders of record on March 13, 2026.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)). Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of and for the period covered by this report.
Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and our dispositions of assets; provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition and use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013). Based on management’s assessment using this framework, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2025, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.
The effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025 has been audited by KPMG LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report included herein.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during its most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.
