Company Background and Overview | |
Company Background and Overview | Note 1. Company Background and Overview Air Lease Corporation (the “Company”, “ALC”, “we”, “our” or “us”) is a leading aircraft leasing company that was founded by aircraft leasing industry pioneer, Steven F. Udvar-Házy. We are principally engaged in purchasing new commercial jet transport aircraft directly from aircraft manufacturers, such as The Boeing Company (“Boeing”) and Airbus S.A.S. (“Airbus”), and leasing those aircraft to airlines throughout the world with the intention to generate attractive returns on equity. In addition to our leasing activities, we sell aircraft from our operating lease portfolio to third parties, including other leasing companies, financial services companies and airlines. We also provide fleet management services to investors and owners of aircraft portfolios for a management fee. As of June 30, 2018, we owned a fleet of 271 aircraft, managed 49 aircraft and had 391 aircraft on order with aircraft manufacturers. |

Basis of Preparation and Critical Accounting Policies | Note 2. Basis of Preparation and Critical Accounting Policies The Company consolidates financial statements of all entities in which we have a controlling financial interest, including the accounts of any Variable Interest Entity in which we have a controlling financial interest and for which we are the primary beneficiary. All material intercompany balances are eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, including only normal, recurring adjustments, which are in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows at June 30, 2018, and for all periods presented. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results expected for the year ending December 31, 2018. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. Maintenance Rights For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company purchased nine aircraft in the secondary market, two of which were subject to existing leases. The total cost for the two aircraft was $73.3 million, which included maintenance right assets of $13.2 million. The Company did not purchase any aircraft in the secondary market subject to existing leases for the year ended December 31, 2017. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had maintenance right assets, net of accumulated amortization of $55.6 million and $44.6 million, respectively. Maintenance right assets are included under flight equipment subject to operating lease in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash The Company considers cash and cash equivalents to be cash on hand and highly liquid investments with original maturity dates of 90 days or less. Restricted cash consists of pledged security deposits, maintenance reserves, and rental payments related to secured aircraft financing arrangements. The following table reconciles cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported in our consolidated balance sheets to the total amount presented in our consolidated statements of cash flows (in thousands): June 30, 2018 June 30, 2017 (unaudited) Cash and cash equivalents $ 259,530 $ 239,710 Restricted cash 21,528 22,239 Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash in the consolidated statements of cash flows $ 281,058 $ 261,949 Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made in the 2017 consolidated financial statements to conform to the classifications in 2018. Recently adopted accounting standards In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09 (“ASU 2014-09”), “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” The amendments in ASU 2014-09 supersede current revenue recognition requirements. The guidance specifically notes that lease contracts are a scope exception. ASU 2014-09 requires entities to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. Further, the guidance requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09 using the modified retrospective approach. Adopting this standard did not have a material impact to our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. As the standard did not apply to lease contracts within the scope of FASB Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 840 Leases, we evaluated the recognition of gains on sale of flight equipment under the scope of the new standard. Under ASU 2014-09, a performance obligation is satisfied and the related revenue recognized when control of the underlying goods or services related to the performance obligation is transferred to the customer. Our performance obligation associated with the sale of flight equipment is satisfied upon delivery of the flight equipment to a customer, which is the point in time where control of the underlying flight equipment has transferred to the buyer. At the time flight equipment is retired or sold, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the related accounts and the difference, net of transaction price, is recorded as a gain or loss. Since there was no net income impact upon adoption of the new guidance, a cumulative effect adjustment to opening retained earnings was not deemed necessary. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15 (“ASU 2016-15”), “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230).” The amendments in ASU 2016-15 address eight classification issues related to the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted ASU 2016-15 using the retrospective transition method. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the current period or prior period consolidated financial statements. In November 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18 (“ASU 2016-18”), “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash.” ASU 2016-18 requires entities to present the aggregate changes in cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. In addition, when cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents are presented in more than one line item on the balance sheet, ASU 2016-18 requires a reconciliation of the totals in the statement of cash flows to the related captions on the balance sheet. The Company adopted ASU 2016-18 retrospectively as of January 1, 2018. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the current period or prior period consolidated financial statements. |

Recently Issued Accounting Standards | Note 3. In February 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02 (“ASU 2016-02”), Leases (Topic 842). The amendments in ASU 2016-02 set out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both lessees and lessors. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, which provides narrow amendments to clarify how to apply certain aspects of the new lease standard. Both standards will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 for public entities and is required to be applied using the modified retrospective transition approach. Early adoption is permitted. Based on our initial evaluation of the guidance, we noted that Lessor accounting is similar to the current model but the guidance will impact us in scenarios where we are the Lessee. We do not expect the impact of this standard to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. We will adopt the standard on January 1, 2019. |

(2) In August 2018, we entered into an agreement to purchase up to 78 Boeing Aircraft, including 75 737-8 MAX aircraft and three 787-9 aircraft. Of the 78 aircraft commitments, 30 737-8 MAX aircraft and three 787-9 aircraft are firm commitments and are included in our order book total. Airbus has informed us to expect several month delivery delays relating to certain aircraft scheduled for delivery in 2018 and 2019. The delays have been reflected in our commitment schedules above; however, we anticipate additional delivery delays not currently reflected in the schedules above. Our leases contain lessee cancellation clauses related to aircraft delivery delays, typically for aircraft delays greater than one year. Our purchase agreements contain similar clauses. As of August 9, 2018, none of our lease contracts were subject to cancellation. Commitments for the acquisition of these aircraft and other equipment at an estimated aggregate purchase price (including adjustments for inflation) of approximately $27.8 billion at June 30, 2018, as adjusted for the order referenced in footnote 2 in the table above, are as follows (in thousands): Years ending December 31, 2018 $ 2,465,306 2019 6,151,512 2020 5,493,536 2021 5,808,153 2022 5,210,440 Thereafter 2,714,769 Total $ 27,843,716 We have made non-refundable deposits on the aircraft for which we have commitments to purchase of $1.6 billion as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, which are subject to manufacturer performance commitments. If we are unable to satisfy our purchase commitments, we may be forced to forfeit our deposits. Further, we would be exposed to breach of contract claims by our lessees and manufacturers. As of June 30, 2018, as adjusted for the order referenced in footnote 2 in the table above, the Company had non-binding commitments to acquire up to five Airbus A350-1000 aircraft and 45 Boeing 737-8 MAX aircraft. Deliveries of these aircraft are scheduled to commence in 2023 and continue through 2024. |

Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that would occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock; however, potential common equivalent shares are excluded if the effect of including these shares would be anti-dilutive. The Company’s two classes of common stock, Class A and Class B Non-Voting, have equal rights to dividends and income, and therefore, basic and diluted earnings per share are the same for each class of common stock. As of June 30, 2018, we did not have any Class B Non-Voting common stock outstanding. Diluted net earnings per share takes into account the potential conversion of stock options, restricted stock units, and warrants using the treasury stock method and convertible notes using the if-converted method. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company did not exclude any potentially dilutive securities, whose effect would have been anti-dilutive, from the computation of diluted earnings per share. The Company excluded 951,878 and 1,086,653 shares related to restricted stock units for which the performance metric had yet to be achieved as of June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The following table sets forth the reconciliation of basic and diluted net income per share (in thousands, except share and per share amounts): Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 2017 2018 2017 Basic net income per share: Numerator Net income $ 115,211 $ 100,925 $ 225,862 $ 185,862 Denominator Weighted-average common shares outstanding 104,003,960 103,180,769 103,876,647 103,064,834 Basic net income per share $ 1.11 $ 0.98 $ 2.17 $ 1.80 Diluted net income per share: Numerator Net income $ 115,211 $ 100,925 $ 225,862 $ 185,862 Assumed conversion of convertible senior notes 1,735 1,431 3,474 2,847 Net income plus assumed conversions $ 116,946 $ 102,356 $ 229,336 $ 188,709 Denominator Number of shares used in basic computation 104,003,960 103,180,769 103,876,647 103,064,834 Weighted-average effect of dilutive securities 8,420,622 8,383,714 8,449,859 8,425,849 Number of shares used in per share computation 112,424,582 111,564,483 112,326,506 111,490,683 Diluted net income per share $ 1.04 $ 0.92 $ 2.04 $ 1.69 |

Fair Value Measurements | Note 7. Fair Value Measurements Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring and Non-recurring Basis The Company had no assets or liabilities which are measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis as of June 30, 2018 or December 31, 2017. Financial Instruments Not Measured at Fair Value The fair value of debt financing is estimated based on the quoted market prices for the same or similar issues, or on the current rates offered to the Company for debt of the same remaining maturities, which would be categorized as a Level 2 measurement in the fair value hierarchy. The estimated fair value of debt financing as of June 30, 2018 was approximately $10.9 billion compared to a book value of $11.1 billion. The estimated fair value of debt financing as of December 31, 2017 was $10.0 billion compared to a book value of $9.8 billion. The following financial instruments are not measured at fair value on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2018, but require disclosure of their fair values: cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. The estimated fair value of such instruments at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 approximates their carrying value as reported on the consolidated balance sheet. The fair value of all these instruments would be categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. |

Stock-based Compensation | |
Stock-based Compensation | Note 8. Stock-based Compensation On May 7, 2014, the stockholders of the Company approved the Air Lease Corporation 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”). Upon approval of the 2014 Plan, no new awards may be granted under the Amended and Restated 2010 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2010 Plan”). As of June 30, 2018, the number of stock options (“Stock Options”) and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) remaining under the 2014 Plan is approximately 5,608,176, which includes 608,176 shares which were previously reserved for issuance under the 2010 Plan. Stock Options are generally granted for a term of 10 years and generally vest over a three year period. The Company has issued RSUs with four different vesting criteria: those RSUs that vest based on the attainment of book value goals, those RSUs that vest based on the attainment of Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) goals, time based RSUs that vest ratably over a time period of three years and RSUs that cliff-vest at the end of a one or two year period. The Company has two types of book value RSUs — those that vest ratably over three years if the performance condition has been met, and those that vest at the end of a three-year period if the performance condition has been met. For the book value RSUs that vest at the end of the three-year period, the number of shares that will ultimately vest will range from 0% to 200% of the RSUs initially granted depending on the percentage change in the Company's book value per share at the end of the vesting period. At each reporting period, the Company reassesses the probability of the performance condition being achieved and expense is recognized based upon management’s assessment. Book value RSUs for which the performance metric has not been met are forfeited. The TSR RSUs vest at the end of a three-year period. The number of TSR RSUs that will ultimately vest is based upon the percentile ranking of the Company’s TSR among a peer group. The number of shares that will ultimately vest will range from 0% to 200% of the RSUs initially granted depending on the extent to which the TSR metric is achieved. The Company recorded $4.9 million and $5.3 million of stock-based compensation expense related to RSUs for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The Company recorded $8.3 million and $9.1 million of stock-based compensation expense related to RSUs for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Stock Options A summary of stock option activity for the six month period ended June 30, 2018 follows: Remaining Aggregate Exercise Contractual Term Intrinsic Value Shares Price (in years) (in thousands) (1) Balance at December 31, 2017 2,858,158 $ 20.37 2.49 $ 79,230 Granted — $ — — $ — Exercised (206,363) $ 20.00 — $ 4,903 Forfeited/canceled — $ — — $ — Balance at June 30, 2018 2,651,795 $ 20.40 1.99 $ 57,204 Vested and exercisable as of June 30, 2018 2,651,795 $ 20.40 1.99 $ 57,204 (1) The aggregate intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the underlying awards and the closing stock price of our Class A common stock as of the respective date. As of June 30, 2018, all of the Company’s outstanding employee stock options had fully vested and there were no unrecognized compensation costs related to outstanding stock options as of June 30, 2018. As a result, there was no stock-based compensation expense related to Stock Options for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. The following table summarizes additional information regarding exercisable and vested stock options at June 30, 2018: Stock Options Exercisable and Vested Weighted- Average Number of Remaining Life Range of exercise prices Shares (in years) $20.00 2,531,795 1.95 $28.80 120,000 2.82 $20.00 - $28.80 2,651,795 1.99 Restricted Stock Units Compensation cost for stock awards is measured at the grant date based on fair value and recognized over the vesting period. The fair value of time based and book value RSUs is determined based on the closing market price of the Company’s Class A common stock on the date of grant, while the fair value of TSR RSUs is determined at the grant date using a Monte Carlo simulation model. Included in the Monte Carlo simulation model were certain assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables, such as expected volatility, risk-free interest rate and expected dividends. To appropriately value the award, the risk-free interest rate is estimated for the time period from the valuation date until the vesting date and the historical volatilities were estimated based on a historical timeframe equal to the time from the valuation date until the end date of the performance period. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company granted 379,480 RSUs of which 90,761 are TSR RSUs. The following table summarizes the activities for our unvested RSUs for the six months ended June 30, 2018: Unvested Restricted Stock Units Weighted-Average Grant-Date Number of Shares Fair Value Unvested at December 31, 2017 1,163,700 $ 40.24 Granted 379,480 $ 47.26 Vested (401,959) $ 42.48 Forfeited/canceled (35,089) $ 47.83 Unvested at June 30, 2018 1,106,132 $ 41.60 Expected to vest after June 30, 2018 1,142,464 $ 41.64 The Company recorded $4.9 million and $5.3 million of stock-based compensation expense related to RSUs for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The Company recorded $8.3 million and $9.1 million of stock-based compensation expense related to RSUs for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. As of June 30, 2018, there was $27.2 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock-based payments granted to employees. Total unrecognized compensation cost will be recognized over a weighted-average remaining period of 2.01 years. |

The following table reconciles cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported in our consolidated balance sheets to the total amount presented in our consolidated statements of cash flows (in thousands): June 30, 2018 June 30, 2017 (unaudited) Cash and cash equivalents $ 259,530 $ 239,710 Restricted cash 21,528 22,239 Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash in the consolidated statements of cash flows $ 281,058 $ 261,949 |
Reclassifications | Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made in the 2017 consolidated financial statements to conform to the classifications in 2018. |
Recent issued accounting pronouncements | Recently adopted accounting standards In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09 (“ASU 2014-09”), “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” The amendments in ASU 2014-09 supersede current revenue recognition requirements. The guidance specifically notes that lease contracts are a scope exception. ASU 2014-09 requires entities to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. Further, the guidance requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09 using the modified retrospective approach. Adopting this standard did not have a material impact to our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. As the standard did not apply to lease contracts within the scope of FASB Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 840 Leases, we evaluated the recognition of gains on sale of flight equipment under the scope of the new standard. Under ASU 2014-09, a performance obligation is satisfied and the related revenue recognized when control of the underlying goods or services related to the performance obligation is transferred to the customer. Our performance obligation associated with the sale of flight equipment is satisfied upon delivery of the flight equipment to a customer, which is the point in time where control of the underlying flight equipment has transferred to the buyer. At the time flight equipment is retired or sold, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the related accounts and the difference, net of transaction price, is recorded as a gain or loss. Since there was no net income impact upon adoption of the new guidance, a cumulative effect adjustment to opening retained earnings was not deemed necessary. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15 (“ASU 2016-15”), “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230).” The amendments in ASU 2016-15 address eight classification issues related to the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted ASU 2016-15 using the retrospective transition method. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the current period or prior period consolidated financial statements. In November 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18 (“ASU 2016-18”), “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash.” ASU 2016-18 requires entities to present the aggregate changes in cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. In addition, when cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents are presented in more than one line item on the balance sheet, ASU 2016-18 requires a reconciliation of the totals in the statement of cash flows to the related captions on the balance sheet. The Company adopted ASU 2016-18 retrospectively as of January 1, 2018. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the current period or prior period consolidated financial statements. |
