Thesis Summary

FTAI's Aerospace Products platform remains the principal source of momentum: Q2 2026 revenue reached USD 875.0 million and adjusted EBITDA reached USD 249.7 million, increasing 78% and 51% year over year. Management reaffirmed USD 1.05 billion of FY2026 Aerospace Products adjusted EBITDA and introduced USD 2.3 billion of total business-segment adjusted EBITDA guidance for 2027. Offsetting those strengths, FY2026 Aviation Leasing guidance was reduced from USD 575 million to USD 475 million, consolidated Q2 adjusted EBITDA declined year over year, and inventory increased materially from year-end. A Hold balances strong aerospace execution and new power-market opportunities against leasing weakness.

Bear CaseDownside scenario
$290.0020%

Aerospace growth moderates or margins weaken, Aviation Leasing falls below its reduced outlook, inventory continues to rise, or FTAI Power deliveries are delayed. These outcomes would undermine confidence in the USD 2.3 billion 2027 business-segment adjusted EBITDA objective.

Base CaseCentral scenario
$364.0055%
Matches the consensus mean

FTAI substantially delivers its USD 1.05 billion FY2026 Aerospace Products adjusted EBITDA guidance while Aviation Leasing reflects the planned asset-light transition and remains near its revised USD 475 million outlook. Growth continues, but execution requirements and elevated inventory constrain conviction.

Bull CaseUpside scenario
$600.0025%

Aerospace Products sustains rapid growth, FTAI Power converts its USD 1.465 billion customer contract into timely deliveries, and the company approaches its USD 2.3 billion 2027 business-segment adjusted EBITDA objective. Maintenance-network expansion and Strategic Capital provide additional capacity and capital efficiency.

Scenarios are anchored to street consensus at the research date, with our probabilities and rationale.
