Air Lease Corporation: Aircraft Values Are Firmly Supported And So Is Upside For The Stock
Air Lease Corporation's stock has risen 30% since August, driven by a 4.7% revenue increase and higher aircraft sales despite higher operating expenses. Net spread remains pressured due to the inability to pass higher interest rates on existing leases, but post-pandemic leases in 2025 should improve net spread. Valuation based on book value suggests a 6-11% upside, while EV/EBITDA valuation projects a $61.79 price target for 2025, maintaining a buy rating.
