Avation ( (GB:AVAP) ) has provided an update.
Avation reported a modest rise in revenue to US$56.0 million and a sharply higher operating profit for the six months to 31 December 2025, while remaining loss-making after tax as non-cash bond-related expenses weighed on earnings. The lessor reduced net debt, increased the number of unencumbered aircraft to 10, refinanced US$300 million of unsecured notes out to 2031, and lifted net asset value per share, signaling a stronger capital structure and improved leverage.
Operationally, Avation maintained a 33-strong fleet, reshaping its portfolio through the sale of a Boeing 777-300ER, a four-year lease extension on its remaining widebody with EVA Air, and the delivery of a new ATR 72-600 on a 12-year lease to Sum Air. The group is set for incremental growth via nine ATR 72-600s on order, while managing lease transitions, an airline customer administration, and an insured total loss of an Airbus A220-300, against a backdrop of rising global passenger traffic and tight new-aircraft supply that supports leasing demand.
The most recent analyst rating on (GB:AVAP) stock is a Hold with a £134.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Avation stock, see the GB:AVAP Stock Forecast page.
