WLFC Q2 Revenue Hits $77.1M, AUM Surges to $4.4B on Fund Launches
WLFC sits 91% above its 52-week low of $38.003.
Summary
Willis Lease Finance posted solid Q2 2026 results with lease rent revenue up 6.7% to $77.1M and gain on sale of leased equipment rising 16.2% to $32.0M. Net income reached $28.7M, while adjusted EBITDA grew 4.0% to $120.7M. The quarter saw the launch of investment fund partnerships with Liberty Mutual and Blackstone, driving assets under management to $4.4B—a 21% year-over-year increase. This follows a contentious proxy season where shareholders rejected a stock split and the company raised $200M via convertible notes. The AUM expansion signals a successful pivot toward asset-light growth, though the core leasing business shows steady, not explosive, improvement.
