AerSale Corp (NASDAQ:ASLE) reported second-quarter 2025 earnings that significantly surpassed analyst expectations, triggering a sharp positive reaction in after-hours trading. The aerospace aftermarket services provider posted revenue of $107.4 million, a 39.3% year-over-year increase, and adjusted diluted earnings per share (EPS) of $0.20, far exceeding consensus estimates of $0.0306 EPS on $88.1 million in revenue.
The strong performance was driven by higher-than-expected flight equipment sales ($33.4 million vs. $17.9 million in Q2 2024) and sustained demand for Used Serviceable Material (USM) and AerSafe™ products. Excluding volatile flight equipment sales, revenue still grew 25% year-over-year to $74 million, indicating underlying strength in the core business.
Following the earnings release, ASLE shares surged 17% in after-hours trading, reflecting investor optimism about the company’s improved profitability and revenue growth. The stock had been relatively flat in the prior week (+0.65%) but underperformed slightly over the past month (+0.98%), suggesting that the market had not fully priced in the earnings upside.
While AerSale did not provide explicit forward guidance, CEO Nick Finazzo expressed confidence in the company’s ability to capitalize on market opportunities, citing strong inventory and operational capabilities. Analysts currently expect Q3 2025 revenue of $96.7 million and full-year 2025 sales of $353.8 million. Given the Q2 beat, investors may anticipate upward revisions to these estimates.
AerSale ended the quarter with $68.8 million in liquidity, including $5.7 million in cash and $63.1 million available under its revolving credit facility. Operating cash flow was positive at $19.8 million, supporting continued inventory investments.
AerSale’s Q2 results demonstrate a meaningful acceleration in profitability, with both revenue and EPS significantly exceeding expectations. The market’s bullish after-hours reaction suggests confidence in the company’s ability to sustain growth, particularly in USM and flight equipment monetization.
