Semi-Annual Jet Aircraft Value Listing


Recovery in Widebody Values Stalled by Omicron Variant
The Omicron variant of Coronavirus has the potential to prevent a recovery in the values of newer widebodies
as the improvement in traffic stalls.
Much work and data is still required to understand the Omicron variant with respect to the efficacy of existing
vaccinations, boosters and potential for severe illness. The United Kingdom and Denmark are already reporting
exponential growth in infections comprising Omicron not least because of more profiling of those testing positive.
Because of the potential for a far greater number of infections even after two vaccinations, even a lesser proportion
of serious illness can have a significant impact on the community. Health workers in particular may suffer from
infections which require isolation placing greater strain on the health resources. Boosting initial vaccinations is one
way to limit the spread of the virus but so too is limiting social interaction. The wider economy may falter again as
hospitality in particular sees restrictions.
The UK now requires a negative PCR test 48 hours before visitors and returning residents can enter the UK as
well as isolation after returning until a second PCR test upon return proves negative. Some other countries have similar
measures. Plans for opening of borders to visitors have been put on hold. Such restrictions and testing regimes, as well
as the threat and cost of having to isolate if proving positive before returning to the UK has seen a significant reduction
in bookings for 2022. The cost of the tests alone can significantly increase the cost of a family holiday.
IATA data shows that for October 2022, international traffic was still more two thirds lower than October
2019. Moreover, capacity was less than half before the Covid Event with load factors being only 64 percent instead of
the previous level of more than 80 percent. The international market is therefore still very weak although the October
data does not take into account the opening of the U.S. market. At the very time the market was beginning to open
up, there is now the risk that the expected surge in traffic for 2022 will evaporate at least until such time as the effects
of Omicron are evaluated. In the event a derivation of the current vaccination is required, then the production and
distribution of the new immunization effort has the potential to affect the market for perhaps another year.
The Covid Event has and is having a catastrophic impact on international traffic even as some markets are
seeing a displacement to domestic markets. The recovery in international sectors was underway but this latest setback
due to Omicron makes it even more difficult to contemplate that the values odd widebodies should equate to pre-
Covid levels. Many appraisers have opted to see little change in the values of in production widebodies perhaps
because sale and leaseback pricing has remained high throughout the Covid Event. A few appraisers have favored to
reduce values by more than 20 percent as a means of reflecting the sustained fall in traffic. For the latter group, the
values of new widebodies has been gradually rising but may still be some 10-20 percent lower than pre-Covid levels.
When taking into account the pre-Covid expected 2-3 percent annual rise in values of new aircraft, a new widebody
now has a comparatively even lower value. For example, in October 2019, a new B787-9 had a value of $146 million –
today the value of a new B787-9 is only $120 million compared to the expected $150 million, albeit having increased
from the $104 million recorded in April 2020. Even the hiatus in new B787 deliveries has not seen a return to pre-
Covid levels. Indeed, when B787 deliveries recommence amidst a still weak international market, the appetite for
increasing values may be diminished due to the potential surplus. At the start of the Covid Event, there was always
the expectation that the international market would take time to recover to pre-pandemic levels not least because of
the potential for mutation and the staggered roll out of the vaccination program and as such the Omicron issue may
be viewed as a temporary issue after which a surge in demand could see a more rapid improvement in values not least
because of the sustained interest in using SAF and more environmentally friendly models which may leave those out
of production with lesser demand. The residual values of widebodies are exposed as a result of the potential for re-
engining during the latter part of this decade.
Despite the uncertainties caused by the Omicron variant, the market for narrowbodies is much more active

although favoring the newer types. The efficiency of the A320neo and the B737MAX make them more in demand
particularly in a high fuel price environment. As more airlines seek to mitigate their environmental footprint by
using the much more expensive SAF (Sustainable Aviation Fuel) then using the fuel on more efficient aircraft will
be key. Not all engines can use SAF, particularly when used in higher concentrations. Domestic traffic has improved
but not many countries have an extensive domestic network which can compensate for the loss of international
traffic. Even domestic traffic in Australia was still some 81 percent lower in October 2021 versus October 2019 due to
lockdowns. The U.S. domestic market was only some 10 percent lower with China being 27 percent lower and India
recording 27 percent less traffic. Russia was however, some 24 percent higher. Overall, domestic traffic was 21 percent
lower. Regional traffic is showing improvement and as such the demand for narrowbodies has improved although a
significant number – far greater than before the Covid Event – remain in storage. Winter in the Northern Hemisphere
usually sees lesser demand except over the holiday season. The improvement in narrowbody lease rentals is notable
and is beginning to feed through to values. However, the increase in production rates and the return to service of the
B737MAX means that the return to service of mid life aircraft may be delayed. The lease rentals of the A320neo
family have improved since the depths of April 2020 but are still lower than pre-Covid levels. The lessors are still
having to engage in negotiating terms rather than dictating rates. The need for power by the hour arrangements is
still evident as are stepped arrangements which sees higher rentals in future years. The inflationary pressures have the
potential to feed through to higher interest rates which will lift rentals.
The residual values of regional aircraft are perhaps most exposed to the changes in the market structure in
the medium to long term given the potential for new models as well as the opportunity for more hydrogen powered
aircraft. United airlines has agreed to take a stake in ZeroAvia which sees an order for 100 engines which may be used
to retrofit existing regional aircraft with hydrogen-electric powerplants. Much depends on how quickly the technology
can be proven, retrofitted and certificated. Some of the plans indicate the hydrogen could be a viable power source
via retrofit as soon as 2025 with others indicating later in the decade. An all new hydrogen powered aircraft should
be launched by the end of the decade with service entry effected before 2035 if not sooner. While production rates
will limit the availability of new aircraft which will act as replacements, the concern for residual values is with respect
to retrofitting existing aircraft. Those types that are not seen as being suitable for retrofit, perhaps because of the
absence of a suitably large product base or engineering limitations, will be likely see a sharper fall in residual values. n

Semi-Annual Jet Aircraft Current Market Value Assumptions


The listing of current and future values is based on the year of build. The essential assumption is that the
aircraft are being sold as a single unit and between a willing seller and willing buyer for cash. The high and low
figures represent adjustments for offer and sale prices, financing arrangements, specification differences, maintenance
status and condition. These are not absolutes and distressed sales as well as sale and leaseback transactions may fall
outside the figures indicated. Some transactions involving distressed sales on fully run out aircraft are considered
exceptional and can fall outside the value ranges. Scrap values are also likely to fall outside the indicated range of
values. Quantity discounts, particularly for the larger equipment, will attract sizeable discounts.
The values quoted below were prepared in late October 2021 in the context of a slightly improved market
from the depths of the Covid Event which was a feature of the April 2020 update. The values listed below are
Market Values not theoretical abstract Base Values and seek to balance transaction pricing, where available, and the
considered worth of the asset. The Market Value is therefore not merely a reflection of the latest lowest available
datapoint. The quoted future values are Market not Base values and attempt to predict cyclic trends when supply will
exceed demand and vice versa. Values may therefore experience a rise as well as a fall in any projected year.
In addition to values, the original source for Aircraft Ratings is included for all aircraft types. The Aircraft Ratings

– the first to be created and forming the industry standard - ranging from highest A++ to the lowest E--, reflect The
Aircraft Value Analysis Company’s (AVAC) opinion as to the relative attraction of the asset over the short to medium
term. The Aircraft Rating calculates approximately 27 different variables for this and each of the next seven years and
takes into account such factors as number on order, product life cycle, competitive production, level of availability,
number of customers, number of operators, geographical distribution assigning a weighted score to each factor. The score
is translated into an “A++” to an “E—“ rating with “A” or “B” ratings representing a product that has the potential to
be remarketed with relative ease and exhibiting better than average value behavior. A “C” or “D” rating indicates that
values will exhibit greater volatility and therefore greater risk. More experienced traders and investors will likely be willing
to invest more readily in such aircraft but will be aware of the risks. An E rating indicates that any value lies more with
the operator than the investor. A = Very popular aircraft over the next seven years with very low availability and strong
demand. Likely to reflect a new aircraft type that offers considerable efficiency compared to existing types. Easy to sell
with less than average value deterioration over the next seven years. Ideal for asset based financing. Little or no risk. B =
Mainstream and popular aircraft that has achieved maturity and is still likely to be in production. The type is easy to sell
and is in demand though the level of availability is creeping up. The decline in values over the next seven years is likely to
be near or slightly below the average. Viewed as good for asset based financing. Little risk.
The future values – four and seven years from 2021 - are expressed in current dollars having been adjusted for
inflation approximating 2.2 percent (lower in the immediate years) and are based on the Mid Case current market
values (AVAC also produce Best and Worst case projections reflecting different probability levels). The figures are
for guidance only and are not intended to reflect actual recent market transactions - assuming that any reliable data
exists. Rather, the values represent the considered worth of the aircraft tempered by the prevailing market conditions.
