Independent Auditors’ Review Report

The GE Capital Global Holdings, LLC Board of Managers:

Report on the Financial Statements

We have reviewed the accompanying combined statement of financial position of GE Capital Aviation Services (the Company) (a carve-out business of General Electric Company) as of June 30, 2021, the related combined statements of earnings, comprehensive income, changes in equity for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, and the related combined statement of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

Management’s Responsibility

The Company’s management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the interim financial information in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles; this responsibility includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control sufficient to provide a reasonable basis for the preparation and fair presentation of interim financial information in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to conduct our reviews in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to reviews of interim financial information. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial information. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying interim financial information for it to be in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTES TO COMBINED CARVE-OUT FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS

GE Capital Aviation Services (the “Business”, “GECAS”, “Company”, “our” or “we”) is a carve-out business of General Electric Company (“GE” or “Parent”). The accompanying Condensed Combined Carve-out Financial Statements present, on a historical cost basis, the combined assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses related to GECAS, a business of GE. Historically, GECAS operated within the GE Capital segment as a business of the Parent, and GECAS’ results of operations have been reported in the Parent’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

GECAS is a world-leading aviation lessor and financier with over 50 years of experience. GECAS provides a wide range of assets including narrow- and wide-body aircraft, regional jets, turboprops, freighters, engines, helicopters and parts. GECAS offers a broad array of financing products and services on these assets including operating leases, sale-leasebacks, asset trading and servicing and aircraft parts management. GECAS serves approximately 200 customers in over 70 countries from a network of 15 offices around the world.

The Business comprises three reportable segments, which include Aircraft, Engines, and Helicopters. During 2019, the Lending business was substantially sold and its activities were classified as a discontinued operation. A remaining portion of the PK AirFinance (“PK”) business (approximately $60 million carrying value of loans) remained held for sale pending certain regulatory and other conditions and the transaction was completed in the first half of 2020. Loans which were identified as core to GECAS were retained within the GECAS business. See Note 17 – Segment Information and Note 3 – Discontinued Operations for further details.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

These Condensed Combined Carve-out Financial Statements are prepared on a stand-alone basis derived from the Consolidated Financial Statements and accounting records of GE. These Condensed Combined Carve-out Financial Statements as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and for each of the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 are presented as Carve-out Financial Statements and reflect the combined statements of earnings, comprehensive income, changes in equity, financial position and cash flows of the Business, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”).

Significant intercompany accounts and transactions within GECAS have been eliminated in the Condensed Combined Carve-out Financial Statements, while transactions with the Parent or other GE entities are disclosed as related party transactions. The net effect of the deemed settled related party transactions is reflected in the Condensed Combined Statements of Cash Flows as Net transfers (to) from Parent within Cash provided by (used for) financing activities and in the Condensed Combined Statements of Financial Position as Net parent investment.

The Condensed Combined Statements of Financial Position reflect, among other things, all of the assets that are specifically identifiable as being directly attributable to the Company, including Net parent investment as a component of equity. Net parent investment represents GE’s historical investment in the Company and includes accumulated net earnings attributable to GE, the net effect of transactions with GE and GE entities and cost allocations from GE that were not historically allocated to the Company.

The Combined Statements of Earnings include expense allocations for services and certain support functions (“GE Corporate Overhead”) that are provided on a centralized basis within GE such as legal, human resources, corporate audit, treasury and various other GE corporate functions that are routinely allocated to the Company and reflected in the Condensed Combined Statements of Earnings in Selling, general and administrative expenses.

 

GECAS CONDENSED COMBINED CARVE-OUT FINANCIAL STATEMENTS    F-9


Where allocations of amounts were necessary, the Company believes the allocation of these amounts were determined on a reasonable basis related to the nature of the item (e.g., external revenue, operating expenses or headcount), reflecting all of the costs of the Company and consistently applied in the periods presented. These allocated amounts, however, are not necessarily indicative of the actual amounts that might have been incurred or realized had the Company operated as a separate stand-alone entity during the periods presented. Consequently, these Condensed Combined Carve-out Financial Statements do not necessarily represent the results the Company would have achieved if the Company had operated as a separate stand-alone entity from GE during the periods presented.

Current and deferred income taxes and related tax expenses have been determined based on the stand-alone results of the Company by applying Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). While the Company is included in the consolidated U.S. federal income tax return and certain state and foreign income tax returns of GE, the income tax provision in the Combined Statements of Earnings has been calculated as if the Company filed a separate tax return.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes are unaudited. The results reported in these consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2020.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

PREPARATION OF CONDENSED COMBINED CARVE-OUT FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accounting and financial reporting policies of GECAS conform to U.S. GAAP, and the preparation of the Condensed Combined Carve-out Financial Statements is in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. In particular, a number of estimates have been and will continue to be affected by the ongoing Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. The severity, magnitude and duration, as well as the economic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, are uncertain, rapidly changing and difficult to predict. As a result, our accounting estimates and assumptions may change over time in response to COVID-19. We believe that the estimates, assumptions and judgments involved in flight equipment residual value, equipment impairment, allowance for credit losses, fair value measurement, actuarial assumptions used to determine costs on employee benefit plans, goodwill, accounting for income taxes and collectability of operating lease receivables have the greatest potential impact on our Condensed Combined Carve-out Financial Statements.

The functional currency for domestic and substantially all foreign operations is the U.S. dollar. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are not significant to the Company’s operations.

Unless otherwise indicated, information in these notes to Condensed Combined Carve-out Financial Statements relates to continuing operations. Certain of our operations have been presented as discontinued. We present businesses that represent components as discontinued operations when the components meet the criteria for held for sale, are sold, or spun-off and their disposal represents a strategic shift that has, or will have, a major effect on our operations and financial results.

Our significant accounting policies are described in the notes to our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020.

ACCOUNTING CHANGES

On January 1, 2021, we adopted ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The ASU removes certain exceptions from the guidance in ASC 740 related to intra-period tax allocations, interim calculations and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences and clarifies and simplifies several other aspects of accounting for income taxes. Different transition methods apply to the various income tax simplifications. For the changes requiring a retrospective or modified retrospective transition, the adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact to our financial statements.

NOTE 3. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Discontinued operations relate to the sale of the substantial majority of our PK lending business. In August 2019, we announced that we entered into a definitive agreement for Apollo Global Management, LLC and Athene Holding Ltd. to purchase PK AirFinance. The sale was substantially completed in December 2019 for proceeds of $3.6 billion and we recorded a pre-tax gain of $86,849 thousand. Substantially all of the $3.6 billion of PK financing receivables that were held for sale in 2019 were sold in the transaction, at a premium to book value. A remaining portion of the PK business (approximately $60 million carrying value of loans) remained held for sale pending certain regulatory and other conditions and was completed in the first half of 2020 and we recorded a pre-tax gain of $57,113 thousand. Loans which were identified as core to GECAS were retained within the GECAS business.

Results of operations, financial position and cash flows for this business are separately reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

NOTE 4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

As discussed in Note 1 – Description of Business and Basis of Presentation, GE provides the Business with a number of services. Some of these services are provided directly by GE, and others are managed by GE through third-party service providers. The cost of certain of these services is either recognized through our allocated portion of GE’s Corporate Overhead or billed directly to the Business. The cost of other services is included within the service itself, and the incremental cost for GE to provide the service is not discernible (such as payroll processing services included within the cost of payroll). In addition, we and our affiliates obtain a variety of goods (such as supplies and equipment) and services under various master purchasing and service agreements to which GE (and not the Business) is a party. We are billed directly for goods and services we procure under these arrangements.

We receive an allocated share of GE Corporate Overhead for certain services that GE provides to the Business, but which are not specifically billed to the Business. Costs of $5,268 thousand and $10,602 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, and costs of $5,449 thousand and $8,761 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, were recorded in our Condensed Combined Statements of Earnings for our allocated share of GE Corporate Overhead. In addition to the assessment of GE Corporate Overhead charges, certain GE Corporate Overhead expenses such as training costs and common compensation costs related to employee laptops and office phones have historically been directly billed to GECAS and recorded in the GECAS general ledger.

These Condensed Combined Carve-out Financial Statements include additional related party transactions with GE and GE entities that include the following:

 

 

The Business had Operating lease revenue from GE of $30,559 thousand and $38,229 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. The Business had Operating lease revenue from GE of $63,031 thousand and $89,539 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. The majority of this revenue related to operating lease revenue for engines leased from the GECAS Engines segment to GE Aviation. Additionally, the Business purchased assets from related parties in the amount of $33,800 thousand and $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The business also purchased assets from related parties in the amount of $33,800 thousand and $173,751 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The majority of these purchases were with GE Aviation and affiliates. The Company makes scheduled pre-delivery progress payments with respect to engines on forward orders. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we have made $152,852 thousand and $155,732 thousand of pre-delivery payments to GE Aviation, respectively.

 

 

Employees of the Business participate in pensions and benefit plans that are sponsored by GE. See Note 15 – Pension and Postretirement Benefit Plans.

 

 

GE grants stock options, restricted stock units and performance share units to its group employees, including those of GECAS. Stock-based compensation expense was $1,625 thousand and $3,154 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense was $1,451 thousand and $2,640 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively.

 

 

Historically, we have had access to funding provided by GE Capital’s treasury function. Debt for which GECAS is not the legal obligor, nor subject to any conditions that could cause GECAS to become the obligor (such as joint and several or guarantor requirements) is excluded from the Condensed Combined Carve-out Financial Statements apart from allocated costs. Interest costs assessed to us from GE Capital’s centralized treasury function, which were determined on the basis of the allocated debt portion and computed leverage ratio for GECAS, are reflected in the Condensed Combined Statements of Earnings as Interest expense of $195,011 thousand and $398,421 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, and as Interest expense of $225,050 thousand and $459,639 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. Interest expense was allocated by GE in the amounts of $163 thousand and $365 thousand and included in discontinued operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. The weighted average interest rate was 2.76% and 2.87% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. The weighted average interest rate was 3.30% and 3.36% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. Certain GECAS aircraft are also pledged as collateral for non-GECAS debt. The net book value of these aircraft pledged as collateral was $311,927 thousand and $735,187 thousand as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

The notional amount of a derivative is the number of units of the underlying (for example, the notional principal amount of the debt in an interest rate swap). The notional amount is used to compute interest or other payment streams to be made under the contract and is a measure of our level of activity. Notional amounts outstanding at the GE Capital treasury level on behalf of GECAS were approximately $324,242 thousand and $350,120 thousand as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Gains and losses on derivative instruments were $199 thousand and $396 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. Gains and losses on derivative instruments were $(10,449) thousand and $(29,867) thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. These gains (losses) are included in Other revenue in the Condensed Combined Statements of Earnings. The fair value of our derivative assets and derivative liabilities is disclosed in Note 12 – Fair Value Measurements.

 

 

GE does not specifically distinguish payments of intercompany payables and receivables, but rather considers all such amounts, including retained earnings, to be part of a capital pool that is reflected as Net parent investment in the Condensed Combined Carve-out Financial Statements. GE uses a centralized approach to cash management under which cash deposits are transferred to GE on a daily basis and are pooled with other GE entities. As a result, none of GE’s cash and cash equivalents have been allocated to the Condensed Combined Carve-out Financial Statements.

The Company’s financing receivables include both time sales and loans and finance leases. Loans represent transactions in a variety of forms, including revolving charges and credit facilities, as well as installment loans.

Investment in finance leases consists of direct financing leases, leveraged leases and sales-type leases of aircraft and other transportation equipment and represents net unpaid rentals and estimated unguaranteed residual values of leased equipment, less related deferred income. The Company has no general obligation for principal and interest on notes and other instruments representing third-party participation related to leveraged leases; such notes and other instruments have not been included in liabilities but have been offset against the related rentals receivable.

The Company’s share of net rentals receivable on leveraged leases is subordinate to the share of other participants who also have security interests in the leased equipment. For federal income tax purposes, the Company is entitled to deduct the interest expense accruing on non-recourse financing related to leveraged leases.

CREDIT QUALITY INDICATORS

The Company manages its financing receivables portfolio using delinquency and non-accrual data as key performance indicators. The categories used within this footnote such as non-accrual financing receivables are defined by the authoritative guidance found within ASC 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, and we base our categorization on the related scope and definitions contained in the related standards. The categories of non-accrual and delinquent are used in our process for managing our financing receivables.

Substantially all of our financing receivables portfolio is secured lending and finance leasing and we assess the overall quality of the portfolio based on financing receivables by risk category as defined below. This metric incorporates both the borrower’s credit quality and any related collateral protection.

 

GECAS CONDENSED COMBINED CARVE-OUT FINANCIAL STATEMENTS    F-14


FINANCING RECEIVABLES BY RISK CATEGORY

Our internal risk ratings process is an important source of information in determining our allowance for credit losses and represents a comprehensive approach to evaluating risk in our financing receivables portfolio. In deriving our internal risk ratings, we stratify our financing receivables portfolio into three categories: A, B and C. Our process starts by developing an internal risk rating for our borrowers, which is based upon our proprietary models using data derived from borrower financial statements, agency ratings, payment history information, equity prices and other commercial borrower characteristics. We then evaluate the potential risk of loss for the specific lending transaction in the event of borrower default, which takes into account such factors as applicable collateral value, historical loss and recovery rates for similar transactions and our collection capabilities. Our internal risk ratings process and the models we use are subject to regular monitoring and internal controls. The frequency of rating updates is set by our credit risk policy, which requires annual GECAS Risk Committee approval.

The table below presents financing receivables, gross of allowance for credit losses, grouped into three categories by similar characteristics. Category A is characterized by either high-credit-quality borrowers or transactions with significant collateral coverage that substantially reduces or eliminates the risk of loss in the event of borrower default. Category B is characterized by borrowers with weaker credit quality than those in Category A, or transactions with moderately strong collateral coverage that minimizes but may not fully mitigate the risk of loss in the event of default. Category C is characterized by borrowers with higher levels of default risk relative to our overall portfolio or transactions where collateral coverage may not fully mitigate a loss in the event of default.

ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES

The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses for estimated credit losses in its held for investment (“HFI”) finance leases and loans portfolio. The allowance is adjusted through provision for credit losses, which is charged against current period earnings, and reduced by any charge-offs for losses, net of recoveries.

Loans whose terms are modified are classified as troubled debt restructurings (“TDR”) if the Company grants such borrowers concessions and it is deemed that those borrowers are experiencing financial difficulty. Concessions granted under a troubled debt restructuring may be modified by means of extending the maturity date of the loan, offering an interest rate on the loan that is not reflective of the market for the credit and/or collateral involved, covenant modifications, forbearances, a combination hereof or other concessions. However, the Company’s modifications generally involve restructuring loan payments and/or interest rates.

Interest income from loans accounted for as TDRs is accounted for in the same manner as other accruing loans. Management evaluates the allowance for credit losses with respect to TDRs under the same policy and guidelines as all other performing loans are evaluated.

The following table presents total TDRs based on accrual status as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Non-accrual TDRs are included in the reported amount of total non-accrual financing receivables.

Based on the resulting pressure on our airline customers, we continue to work with customers on restructuring requests as they arise. As a result of these requests, we have executed agreements with customers to reschedule certain lease payments. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had contractually deferred balances of $348,271 thousand and $368,076 thousand, respectively. We expect to continue to receive requests for rent deferrals and/or lease restructures from our global airline customers as a result of COVID-19 and related market impacts. An extended disruption of regional or international travel could result in an increase in these types of requests in future periods, which could result in an increase to the trade receivable balance. As we evaluate future lease restructures, there is a risk of lease modifications that could have a material adverse effect on operations, financial position and cash flows.

NOTE 12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

GECAS measures the fair value of its financial assets and liabilities and certain non-financial assets in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and requires disclosures about fair value measurements. The Company categorizes its financial instruments, based on the priority of inputs to the valuation techniques, according to the following three tier fair value hierarchy:

Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.

 

GECAS CONDENSED COMBINED CARVE-OUT FINANCIAL STATEMENTS    F-20


Level 3 – Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable.

When there is no observable comparable data, inputs used to determine value are derived through extrapolation and interpolation and other Company specific inputs such as projected financial data and the Company’s own views about the assumptions that market participants would use.

The Company monitors the availability of observable market data to assess the appropriate classification of financial instruments within the fair value hierarchy. Changes in the observability of key inputs to a fair value measurement may result in a transfer of assets or liabilities between Level 1, 2 and 3. The Company’s policy is to recognize transfers in and transfers out as of the end of the reporting period. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were no transfers into or out of Level 1, 2 or 3.

The Company’s financial derivatives largely consist of interest rate swaps and cross currency swaps, certain of which qualify as cash flow hedges under ASC 815. These are valued using models that incorporate inputs, such as interest rate curves and volatility. Readily observable market inputs to models can be validated to external sources, including industry pricing services, or corroborated through recent trades, yield curves or other market-related data. As such, these derivative instruments are valued using a Level 2 methodology. In addition, these derivative values incorporate an assessment of the risk of counterparty non-performance, measured based on the Company’s evaluation of credit risk.

NON-RECURRING FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

(a)

For purposes of the income approach, fair value was based on the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at an appropriate risk-adjusted rate.

Equipment leased to others

We use the income approach to measure the fair value of the majority of our equipment. Key inputs to the estimated future cash flows for flight equipment include current contractual lease cash flows, projected future non-contractual lease or sale cash flows, extended to the end of the aircraft’s estimated holding period in its highest and best use, and a contractual or estimated disposition value. Management develops the assumptions used in the fair value measurements. Therefore, these fair value measurements of equipment leased to others are classified as Level 3 valuations. The remaining portion of the equipment leased to others is valued using third-party valuation and current market value. These are classified as Level 2 valuations.

GECAS CONDENSED COMBINED CARVE-OUT FINANCIAL STATEMENTS    F-22


Times sales and loans – As there is no liquid secondary market for the loans in GECAS’ portfolio, the fair value is estimated based on discounted cash flow analyses which use Level 3 inputs at both June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. In addition to the characteristics of the underlying contracts, key inputs to the analysis include interest rates, prepayment rates and credit spreads. For the loans, the market-based credit spread inputs are derived from instruments with comparable credit risk characteristics obtained from independent third-party vendors. As these Level 3 unobservable inputs are specific to individual loans, management does not believe the sensitivity analysis of individual inputs is meaningful, but rather that sensitivity is more meaningfully assessed through the evaluation of aggregate carrying values of the loan. The fair value of loans as of June 30, 2021 was 92% of carrying value. The fair value of loans as of December 31, 2020 was 90% of carrying value.

Borrowings – The fair value of our borrowings is based on valuation methodologies using current market interest rate data that are comparable to market quotes adjusted for our non-performance risk or quoted market prices and recent transactions, if available.

NOTE 14. INCOME TAXES

Our effective tax rate was 27.2% and 23.7% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, and (12.7%) and (8.6%) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. The effective tax rate is impacted by the source and amount of earnings among our different tax jurisdictions as well as the amount of permanent tax differences relative to pre-tax income. Our effective tax rate in any period can be impacted by revisions to the estimated full year rate.

The Business is under continuous examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), various U.S. state taxing authorities, and non-U.S. taxing authorities as part of the audit of GE’s tax returns. In December 2020, the IRS completed the audit of the consolidated U.S. income tax returns for 2014-2015. There was no material impact to the financial statements. We believe that there are no jurisdictions in which the outcome of unresolved issues or claims is likely to be material to the results of operations, financial position or cash flows. We further believe that we have made adequate provisions for all income tax uncertainties.

NOTE 15. PENSION AND POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS

Certain employees are covered under GE’s retirement plans (e.g. pension, retiree health and life insurance). The Business is allocated relevant participation costs for these GE retirement benefit plans by GE. As such, we have not recorded any liability associated with our participation in these plans in our Combined Statements of Financial Position as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Expenses associated with our employees’ participation in the US GE pension retirement plans were $189 thousand and $441 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. The expense is made up entirely of service-related costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and was recorded in Selling, general and administrative expense in the Combined Statements of Earnings. There was no non-service related cost for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. Expenses associated with our employees’ participation in the US GE pension retirement plans were $349 thousand and $1,516 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. The expense is made up entirely of service-related costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and was recorded in Selling, general and administrative expense in the Combined Statements of Earnings. There was no non-service related cost for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

In addition to the GE employee benefit plans, certain of our employees are covered by a defined benefit plan sponsored by GECAS. The Business uses a December 31 measurement date for this plan. The Business also operates defined contribution pension plans for the employees who do not fall under the defined benefit plan. All defined contribution plans, individually and on an aggregate basis, do not have a material impact on our Combined Statements of Financial Position or Combined Statements of Earnings. We recognize an expense for contributions to the defined contribution plans in Selling, general and administrative expense in the Combined Statements of Earnings in the period the contributions are made.

NOTE 16. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

COMMITMENTS

In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into purchase commitments for goods and services.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company has placed multiple-year orders for various Boeing, Airbus and other aircraft and engine manufacturers, and has commitments to purchase 297 new aircraft and engines totaling to $26,311,578 thousand scheduled for delivery through 2027, as well as secondary orders to purchase 27 used aircrafts totaling $1,270,300 thousand from various airlines.

When we purchase aircraft, it is at a contractual price, which is usually less than the aircraft manufacturer’s list price and reduced for any pre-delivery payments made in advance. Pre-delivery payments are staged partial payments of the aircraft contractual price made by us to the manufacturer pursuant to an aircraft purchase agreement, usually 18-24 months in advance of the delivery of the aircraft. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we have made $2,632,906 thousand and $2,871,144 thousand of pre-delivery payments to aircraft manufacturers, respectively.

CONTINGENCIES

The Company is involved, and from time to time in the future may be involved, in a number of pending and threatened judicial, regulatory and arbitration proceedings relating to matters that arise in connection with the conduct of its business (collectively “Litigation”).

In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, the Company establishes reserves for Litigation when those matters present loss contingencies as to which it is both probable that a loss will occur and the amount of such loss can be reasonably estimated.

Based on currently available information, the Company believes that the results of Litigation that are currently pending, taken together, do not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, and are not material to the Company’s operating results or cash flows for any particular period.
