WOOD DALE, Ill., Sept. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- AAR CORP.

Acquisition significantly enhances AAR's scale, margins, and cash flow profile Adds more than $1 billion in revenue supporting blue-chip, U.S. airline customers Expands AAR's consolidated adjusted EBITDA margins 1  from approximately 12% to 16%, before synergies Expected to be accretive to adjusted EPS in the first full fiscal year post closing Updating AAR's adjusted EBITDA margin target to approximately 19% to 20% within three to four years WOOD DALE, Ill., Sept. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- AAR CORP.

AAR Corp maintains a Buy rating, supported by robust revenue growth and margin improvement potential. Q1 FY2027 expectations center on $880M revenue, $1.30 adjusted EPS, and EBITDA margins of 12.25%-12.75% ex-Legacy Commercial Programs. Strong organic growth in new parts distribution and margin recovery at HAECO are critical for further upside.

AAR Corporation is rated a strong buy after a 26.6% pullback, with a $167 price target implying ~50% upside on a blended valuation approach. The correction is seen as a healthy valuation reset, not a sign of deteriorating fundamentals; fiscal 2027 guidance remains robust. AIR's transformation into a diversified aftermarket platform, margin expansion, and high-margin software growth underpin the bullish thesis.
