FLY is reporting strong fourth quarter
and full year results, said Colm Barrington, FLYs CEO. Our fourth quarter and full year revenues are up 40%
and 15%, respectively, driven by the successful rejuvenation of our fleet through the acquisition of newer aircraft and the sale
of older models. This strategy has lowered the average age of our fleet to 7.8 years and increased our average lease term to over
five years. We grew our book value per share to $18.32.
This is the second successive year
in which we have grown our fleet substantially, added Barrington. In 2014, we bought 22 aircraft, mainly through
sale and leaseback transactions with airlines, increasing our fleet value by 22% to more than $3.7 billion. In addition, we have
continued to monetize older aircraft at premiums to book value, demonstrating the strong inherent value in our fleet. And we have
continued to pay attractive quarterly dividends of 25 cents per share.
The global airline industry is in
a healthy state, spurred by increasing passenger traffic and lower fuel prices. Airline profits reached record levels in 2014,
with further improvements forecast for 2015. This industry health has stimulated demand from our airline customers to grow their
fleets, and with aircraft manufacturers sold out for many years ahead, leasing is a key source of additional capacity. With ample
capital and a nimble strategy that allows us to act quickly to take advantage of opportunities in the market, FLY is in an excellent
position to continue its growth and deliver value to its shareholders, said Barrington.
Financial Results
FLY is reporting Net income of $15.5 million
or $0.37 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2014. This compares to Net income of $13.4 million or $0.32 per diluted share
for the same period of 2013. The fourth quarter 2014 results include $21.7 million of end of lease income compared to the fourth
quarter of 2013 in which there was none. However, the fourth quarter 2013 results included $18.6 million in net gains associated
with refinancing transactions.
Total revenues for the fourth quarter of
2014 were $120.3 million, compared to $85.5 million for the same period in the previous year, an increase of 40.7%.
Net income for the year ended December 31,
2014 was $56.1 million or $1.32 per diluted share compared to $52.5 million or $1.50 per diluted share for 2013. For 2014, end
of lease income was $39.8 million and gains on aircraft sales totaled $18.9 million. The 2013 results included $47.6 million in
end of lease income and $6.3 million in gains on aircraft sales.
Total revenues for 2014 were $426.7 million,
compared to $369.5 million in 2013, an increase of 15.5%.

the fourth quarter of 2014 compared to $4.9 million in the same period in the previous year. On a per share basis, Adjusted Net

FLY
defines Adjusted Net Income as net income plus or minus the after-tax impacts of ineffective, dedesignated or terminated cash flow
hedges, non-cash share-based compensation, gains and losses on extinguishment of debt, impairment charges, and adjustments related
to the GAAM portfolio acquisition comprised of amortization of fair value adjustments recorded in purchase accounting. FLY believes
that Adjusted Net Income provides information that is useful in evaluating the operating performance of FLYs
business and facilitates period over period comparisons. It also provides additional information that is useful for evaluating
the underlying operating performance of FLYs business without
regard to gains and losses related to refinancing activity, impairment charges, share based compensation, changes in the fair value
of ineffective cash flow hedges, and the impacts of fair-value adjustments of debt and leases that FLY assumed in connection with
the GAAM portfolio.
Adjusted
Net Income Plus Depreciation and Amortization is a cash flow measure that provides investors with an additional measure for evaluating
FLYs ongoing cash earnings, from which capital investments
are made, debt is serviced and dividends are paid. However, this measure excludes certain positive and negative cash items, including
principal payments on debt, and therefore has certain important limitations as an indicator of FLYs
ability to pay dividends and reinvest in its business. Management uses Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Plus Depreciation
and Amortization as measures for assessing FLYs performance.
Adjusted
Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Plus Depreciation and Amortization should be considered as supplements to, and not as a substitute
for net income or other financial measures determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. FLYs
definitions may be different than those used by other companies.
