AAR Reports Q1 Sales Up 24% With Strong Earnings Beat

AAR reported fiscal first-quarter 2027 sales of $918 million, up 24% year over year, and adjusted diluted earnings of $1.49 per share, beating analysts’ consensus. Net income was $40.1 million, or $1.00 per diluted share, while adjusted operating and EBITDA margins reached 10.6% and 12.7%, respectively. The company also agreed to acquire a 65% stake in MRO Holdings, a move that could support further growth if the deal closes and integration goes smoothly.
AAR’s latest results continued what the report described as a multi-year pattern of growth above the market and improving margins, amid firm commercial demand.
AAR shares traded down $0.53 to $115.58 during midday trading after the earnings report, despite the earnings beat.
Analyst views were mixed: MarketBeat data cited in one report showed one Strong Buy, four Buy and three Hold ratings, with an average price target of $139.60.
The same report said AAR’s prior quarter generated $928 million in revenue and $1.53 per share in earnings, exceeding analyst estimates of $893.03 million and $1.38 per share, respectively.
