Earnings Call Summary

Q4 2025

Earnings Call Sentiment|Positive
Overall the call conveyed a positive tone: material year-over-year improvement in adjusted earnings (134% increase), a meaningful dividend increase (38%), active share repurchases, strategic accretive M&A (Kadex) and multi-year cash generation guidance. These positives outweigh operational and timing headwinds such as a modest Q4 EBITDA decline (~7.6%), a small Voyageur revenue shortfall (~$5M), higher leverage versus the prior year, and some reliance on timing of asset and parts sales to smooth cash flows. Management highlighted strong liquidity, disciplined capital allocation, and a clear target leverage range (1–2x), which supports a constructive outlook despite near-term lumpiness.
Company Guidance
Chorus’s guidance and capital plan for 2026 and the next four years includes FY2026 adjusted EBITDA of $170–$185 million and free cash flow of $100–$110 million; across the next four fiscal years it anticipates $500–$550 million of combined free cash flow and net proceeds from asset sales with a flexible capital allocation envelope of $170–$220 million. The company is increasing its dividend to $0.11 per share quarterly ($0.44 annually), up 38% from $0.08/qtr ($0.32/yr), committing to up to $100 million of share purchases over four years and a NCIB to buy ~2 million shares over the next year, while targeting mid‑teen returns. Key balance‑sheet metrics and near‑term items: year‑end liquidity of $169 million, year‑end leverage 1.7x (target range 1–2x net debt/adjusted EBITDA), scheduled amortizing term‑loan paydowns of $190 million over four years, expected realized proceeds of ~US$56 million (~CA$78 million) from sale of eight Dash 8‑400s (Feb–Jul), and an acquisition of Kadex for ~US$50 million ($43M funded at close) at ~7.5x EBIT, which management expects to be immediately accretive; FX assumptions cited were ~1.35 CAD/USD for the year moving to ~1.30 thereafter.
Strong Full-Year Earnings Growth
Adjusted earnings available to common shareholders of $2.27 for 2025, up from $0.97 in 2024, representing a 134% increase year-over-year.
Quarterly EPS Improvement
Q4 adjusted earnings per common share of $0.57, up $0.23 or 68% versus Q4 2024, primarily driven by lower net interest expense.
Capital Return and Shareholder-Friendly Actions
Annual dividend increased from $0.32 to $0.44 (a 38% increase); announced quarterly dividend of $0.11 and commitment to purchase up to $100 million of shares over 4 years plus an NCIB (~2M shares).
Aggressive Share Buybacks Executed
Repurchased $85.2 million of shares in 2025 and $124 million since 2022, representing approximately 19% of outstanding shares repurchased since 2022.
M&A and Strategic Acquisitions
Agreement to acquire Kadex Aero Supply for ~ $50 million (~7.5x EBIT), $43 million funded at close; acquisition expected to be immediately accretive to earnings and free cash flow. Also completed acquisition of Elisen & Associates in 2025.
Solid Liquidity and Near-Term Cash Inflows
Year-end available liquidity of $169 million and expected realized net proceeds of ~USD 56 million (~CAD 78 million) from sales of remaining Dash 8-400s between Feb–Jul 2026.
Guidance and Multi-Year Cash Generation Outlook
2026 guidance: adjusted EBITDA of $170M–$185M and free cash flow of $100M–$110M. Management anticipates $500M–$550M in free cash flow and net proceeds on asset sales over the next four years.
Business Momentum and Operational Wins
Jazz delivered steady contracted earnings, completed a cabin refurbishment program, expanded U.S. flying from Billy Bishop, and secured a new 5-year collective agreement with maintenance employees. Voyageur and Elisen achieved defense and specialty MRO wins and pipeline expansion.
