AVATION PLC

("Avation" or "the Company")

SALE OF TWO ATR AIRCRAFT

Avation PLC (LSE: AVAP), the commercial passenger aircraft leasing company,
announces that it has sold two ATR 72-600 aircraft to Danish Air Transport
("DAT").

 

The two aircraft were acquired in 2018 and leased to DAT on leases which
included purchase options.  DAT notified the company of its intention to
exercise the purchase options for both aircraft and the sales of the two
aircraft have now been concluded. This transaction is at book value and
releases net cash proceeds, after repayment of associated bank loans, of about
$10 million.

 

Avation's Executive Chairman, Jeff Chatfield, said: "We are pleased to have
successfully concluded these aircraft sales to our longstanding customer DAT.
The Company's strategy is to own a balanced portfolio of regional and modern
commercial narrowbody aircraft, exiting these two ATR aircraft is aligned with
that strategy."
