2021 SUSTAINABILITY report

Avolon announces the release of its inaugural sustainability report. The report presents an overview of our sustainability progress to date and our future commitments.

Dómhnal Slattery, Avolon CEO, commented: “While 2021 was another challenging year for the aviation industry, we saw clear evidence of recovery in both our own business, and among our airline customers, as the year progressed. While challenges remain in the short-term, and recovery will be uneven across markets, we have passed an inflection point and we are in the re-build phase for our industry.

We delivered across a number of key performance metrics in 2021 – returning to profitability, expanding our fleet, and further reducing both our cost of capital and secured debt on our balance sheet. As a result, we enter 2022 with a stronger business and significant liquidity; positioned to take advantage of opportunities as they arise.”
