Falko, an aircraft leasing and asset management company, has released a summary of its portfolio activity for the third quarter of 2025, highlighting a period of robust trading and leasing performance.
During the quarter, the company completed nine lease extensions covering ATR72-600 and ATR42-500 aircraft, with two customers based in Europe and South America. The sustained leasing demand reflects continued stability and recovery across regional aviation markets.
On the trading front, Falko finalised the sale of ten aircraft — a mix of ATR42/72-600 and CRJ200 models — along with one CF34-85C engine. The company also signed letters of intent (LOIs) for the sale of a further 15 aircraft and the acquisition of ten aircraft. Altogether, the company was involved in transactions relating to 44 aircraft and one engine during the three-month period, demonstrating strong global market engagement.
As of September 30, 2025, Falko’s managed fleet stood at 201 aircraft, leased to 36 customers around the world. The portfolio includes a diverse mix of regional aircraft types serving operators across multiple continents, reinforcing the company’s reputation as a specialist lessor in the sub-150-seat segment.
Commenting on the results, Mark Hughes, Falko’s Chief Commercial Officer, said: “Falko experienced meaningful trading activity during the third quarter, completing the sale of ten aircraft and one engine with four separate counterparties. Notably, this included the sale of the final seven CRJ200 aircraft within Falko’s fleet, to a U.S.-based charter operator following the aircraft redeliveries from a North American airline. As we enter the fourth quarter, we are pleased to see the positive trading environment continuing.”
Falko’s active quarter reflects ongoing confidence in the regional aircraft sector, driven by growing demand for efficient, right-sized fleets as operators adjust to evolving market dynamics.
