The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a “safe harbor” for certain forward-looking statements so long as such information is identified as forward-looking and is accompanied by meaningful cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the information.

WILLIS LEASE FINANCE CORPORATION 
AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2023
(Unaudited)
Unless the context requires otherwise, references to the “Company,” “WLFC,” “we,” “us” or “our” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q refer to Willis Lease Finance Corporation and its subsidiaries.
1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The significant accounting policies of the Company were described in Note 1 to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Form 10-K”). There have been no significant changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

(a)   Basis of Presentation

The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), consistent in all material respects with those applied in the 2022 Form 10-K, for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Therefore, they do not include all information and footnotes normally included in annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the 2022 Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments (consisting principally of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, Statements of Income, Statements of Comprehensive Income, Statements of Redeemable Preferred Stock and Shareholders’ Equity and Statements of Cash Flows for such interim periods presented. Additionally, operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that can be expected for a full year.

In accordance with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. In preparing these financial statements, management has made its best estimates and judgments of certain amounts included in the financial statements, giving due consideration to materiality. These estimates and judgments are based on historical experience and other assumptions that management believes are reasonable and the inputs into management's estimates and judgment consider the economic implications of the COVID-19 pandemic and the current rising interest rate and inflationary environment on the Company’s critical and significant accounting estimates. However, application of these accounting policies involves the exercise of judgment and use of assumptions as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ materially from these estimates. The significant estimates made in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include certain assumptions related to intangible assets, long-lived assets, equipment held for sale, allowances for doubtful accounts and credit losses, inventory, deferred in-substance fixed payment use fees included in “Unearned revenue” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and estimated income taxes. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Given the uncertainty in the rapidly changing market and economic conditions related to the current rising interest rate and inflationary environment, the Company will continue to evaluate the nature and extent of the impact to its business, results of operations and financial condition.

(b) Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, including variable interest entities (“VIEs”), where the Company is the primary beneficiary in accordance with consolidation guidance. The Company first evaluates all entities in which it has an economic interest to determine whether for accounting purposes the entity is either a VIE or a voting interest entity. If the entity is a VIE, the Company consolidates the financial statements of that entity if it is the primary beneficiary of such entity's activities.  If the entity is a voting interest entity, the Company consolidates the entity when it has a majority of voting interests in such entity. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

(c)   Risks and Uncertainties

11
The scope and nature of the impact of COVID-19 on the airline industry, and in turn the Company's business, continue to evolve and the outcomes are uncertain. Additionally, given the uncertainty in the rapidly changing market and economic conditions related to the current rising interest rate and inflationary environment, we will continue to evaluate the nature and extent of the impact to the Company's business and financial position. The ultimate extent of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and the current rising interest rate and inflationary environment on the Company will depend on future developments, and such effects could exist for an extended period of time.

(d)   Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Adopted by the Company

At the beginning of January 2023, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU 2016-13 revises the measurement of credit losses for financial assets measured at amortized cost from an incurred loss methodology to an expected loss methodology. ASU 2016-13 affects trade receivables, debt securities, net investment in leases, and most other financial assets that represent a right to receive cash. Additional disclosures about significant estimates and credit quality are also required. There was not a significant impact on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements upon adoption of the standard.

Notes receivable and investments in sales-type leases, net of allowances represent the current remaining balances we expect to collect for our failed sale-leaseback transactions and sales-type leases. We establish allowances for credit losses to cover probable but specifically unknown losses existing in the portfolio. In doing so, we categorize our financial assets by pools with similar risk characteristics, including whether the financial asset is collateral-backed and whether the customer is placed on non-accrual status. A write-off is recorded when all or part of the financial asset is deemed uncollectible. Write-offs are charged against previously established allowances for credit losses. Partial or full recoveries of amounts previously written off are generally recognized as a reduction in the allowances for credit losses.

Receivables, net of allowances includes amounts billed to customers where the right to payment is unconditional. We maintain an allowance for our trade receivables to provide for the estimated amount that will not be collected, even when the risk of loss is remote. The allowance is measured on a collective pool basis when similar risk characteristics exist and is established as a percentage of accounts receivable. The percentage is based on all available and relevant information including age of outstanding receivables, historical payment experience and loss history, current economic conditions, and, when reasonable and supportable factors exist, management’s expectation of future economic conditions. A write-off is recorded when all or part of the receivable is deemed uncollectible. Write-offs are charged against the previously established allowance for credit losses. Partial or full recoveries of amounts previously written off are generally recognized as a reduction in the allowance for credit losses.

Virtually all of the above debt requires ongoing compliance with certain financial covenants, including debt/equity ratios, minimum tangible net worth and minimum interest coverage ratios, and other eligibility criteria including customer and geographic concentration restrictions. The Company also has certain negative financial covenants such as liens, advances, change in business, sales of assets, dividends and stock repurchases. These covenants are tested either monthly, quarterly or annually, and the Company was in full compliance with all financial covenant requirements at June 30, 2023.
6.  Derivative Instruments

The Company periodically holds interest rate derivative instruments to mitigate exposure to changes in interest rates, predominantly one-month LIBOR, with $758.0 million and $727.0 million of variable rate borrowings at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. As a matter of policy, management does not use derivatives for speculative purposes. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had five interest rate swap agreements. During 2021, the Company entered into four fixed-rate interest swap agreements, each having notional amounts of $100.0 million, two with remaining terms of seven months and two with remaining terms of 31 months as of June 30, 2023. One interest rate swap agreement was entered into during 2019 which has a notional outstanding amount of $100.0 million with a remaining term of 12 months as of June 30, 2023. The derivative instruments were each designated as cash flow hedges at inception and recorded at fair value.

The Company evaluated the effectiveness of the swap agreements to hedge the interest rate risk associated with its variable rate debt and concluded at the swap inception dates that each swap was highly effective in hedging that risk. The Company evaluates the effectiveness of the hedging relationships on an ongoing basis and concluded there was no ineffectiveness in the hedges for the period ended June 30, 2023.

The Company estimates the fair value of derivative instruments using a discounted cash flow technique and has used creditworthiness inputs that corroborate observable market data when evaluating the Company’s and counterparty’s risk of non-performance. Valuation of the derivative instruments requires certain assumptions for underlying variables and the use of different assumptions would result in a different valuation. Management believes it has applied assumptions consistently during the period. The Company applies hedge accounting and accounts for the change in fair value of its cash flow hedges through other comprehensive income for all derivative instruments.

The net fair value of the interest rate swaps as of June 30, 2023 was $28.8 million, representing an asset and is reflected within “Other assets” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The net fair value of the interest rate swaps as of December 31, 2022 was $34.8 million, representing an asset and reflected within “Other assets” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company recorded an adjustment to interest expense of $(5.7) million and $(0.9) million during the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $(11.1) million and $(0.6) million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, from derivative instruments.

Effect of Derivative Instruments on Earnings in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income 

The following table provides additional information about the financial statement effects related to the cash flow hedges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:

Interest rate contracts$645 $3,945 $(6,020)$21,096 
Total$645 $3,945 $(6,020)$21,096 

The effective portion of the change in fair value on a derivative instrument designated as a cash flow hedge is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and is reclassified into earnings in the period during which the transaction being hedged affects earnings or it is probable that the forecasted transaction will not occur. The ineffective portion of the hedges, if any, is recorded in earnings in the current period.

Counterparty Credit Risk

The Company evaluates the creditworthiness of the counterparties under its hedging agreements. The counterparties for the interest rate swaps are large financial institutions that possessed investment grade credit ratings. Based on these ratings, the Company believes that the counterparties were credit-worthy and that their continuing performance under the hedging agreements was probable and did not require the counterparties to provide collateral or other security to the Company.
7.  Income Taxes

Income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was $5.2 million and $7.6 million, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was 27.2% and 29.4%, respectively. Income tax expense (benefit) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was $5.0 million and $(1.5) million, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was 46.1% and 8.8%, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rates differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to executive compensation exceeding $1.0 million as defined in Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and a discrete item recorded in the quarter ended March 31, 2022 associated with a write-down of engines due to the Russia and Ukraine conflict. Refer to Note 8 "Fair Value Measurements" for further detail on the write-downs related to Russia.

The Company records tax expense or benefit for unusual or infrequent items discretely in the period in which they occur. The Company’s tax rate is subject to change based on changes in the mix of assets leased to domestic and foreign lessees, the proportions of revenue generated within and outside of California, the amount of executive compensation exceeding $1.0 million as defined in Section 162(m) of the Code and numerous other factors, including changes in tax law.

8. Fair Value Measurements

The fair value of a financial instrument represents the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties in contrast to a forced sale or liquidation. Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information about the financial instrument. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of judgment, and therefore cannot be determined with precision.

Accounting standards define fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Accounting standards establish a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value and also establishes the following three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

17
Level 2 - Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair value disclosures for financial instruments:

•Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, receivables, and accounts payable: The amounts reported in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.

•Notes receivable: The carrying amount of the Company’s outstanding balance on its Notes receivable as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was estimated to have a fair value of approximately $88.0 million and $83.5 million, respectively, based on the fair value of estimated future payments calculated using interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates at each period end (Level 2 inputs).

•Investments in sales-type leases: The carrying amount of the Company's outstanding balance on its Investments in sales-type leases as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was estimated to have a fair value of approximately $5.8 million and $6.4 million, respectively, based on the fair value of estimated future payments calculated using interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates at each period end (Level 2 inputs).

•Debt obligations: The carrying amount of the Company’s outstanding balance on its Debt obligations as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was estimated to have a fair value of approximately $1,519.8 million and $1,540.2 million, respectively, based on the fair value of estimated future payments calculated using interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates at each period end (Level 2 inputs).

Assets Measured and Recorded at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis and a Nonrecurring Basis

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company measured the fair value of its interest rate swap agreements based on Level 2 inputs, due to the usage of inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data. The Company estimates the fair value of derivative instruments using a discounted cash flow technique and has used creditworthiness inputs that corroborate observable market data evaluating the Company’s and counterparties’ risk of non-performance. The net fair value of the interest rate swaps as of June 30, 2023 was $28.8 million, representing an asset. The net fair value of the interest rate swaps as of December 31, 2022 was $34.8 million, representing an asset. The Company recorded an adjustment to interest expense of $(5.7) million and $(0.9) million during the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $(11.1) million and $(0.6) million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, from derivative instruments.

Goodwill is assessed for impairment annually, at each year end by comparing the fair values of the reporting units to their carrying amounts. The Company first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative goodwill impairment test.

The Company determines fair value of long-lived assets held and used, such as Equipment held for operating lease and Equipment held for sale, by reference to independent appraisals, quoted market prices (e.g. an offer to purchase) and other factors. An impairment charge is recorded when the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value. The Company uses Level 2 inputs to measure write-downs of equipment held for lease and equipment held for sale.

Write-downs of equipment to their estimated fair values totaled $1.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, reflecting the adjustment of the carrying value of two impaired engines. As of June 30, 2023, included within equipment held for lease and equipment held for sale was $29.3 million in remaining book values of 14 assets which were previously written down.

Write-downs of equipment to their estimated fair value totaled $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Write-downs of equipment to their estimated fair values totaled $21.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, reflecting an adjustment of the carrying value of three impaired engines. Of this write-down, $20.4 million reflects the impairment of two engines located in Russia which were determined, due to the Russia and Ukraine conflict, to be unrecoverable. The remaining write-downs were in the ordinary course of business.
9.  Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income, less preferred stock dividends and accretion of preferred stock issuance costs, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Treasury stock is excluded from the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share attributable to common stockholders is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock and dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Dilutive securities are common stock equivalents that are freely exercisable into common stock at less than market prices or otherwise dilute earnings if converted. The net effect of common stock equivalents is based on the incremental common stock that would be issued upon the vesting of restricted stock using the treasury stock method. Common stock equivalents are not included in diluted earnings per share when their inclusion is antidilutive. Additionally, redeemable preferred stock is not convertible and does not affect dilutive shares.

There were no anti-dilutive shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. There were no anti-dilutive shares excluded from the computation of diluted weighted average earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2022. There were 0.2 million anti-dilutive shares excluded from the computation of diluted weighted average loss per share for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Common Stock Repurchase

In October 2022, the Board of Directors approved the renewal of the existing common stock repurchase plan which allows for repurchases of up to $60.0 million of the Company’s common stock, extending the plan through December 31, 2024. Repurchased shares are immediately retired. No shares were repurchased during the six months ended June 30, 2023. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company repurchased a total of 154,215 shares of common stock for approximately $5.2 million at a weighted average price of $33.98 per share.

Redeemable Preferred Stock

Dividends: The Company’s Series A-1 Preferred Stock and Series A-2 Preferred Stock accrue quarterly dividends at the rate per annum of 6.5% per share. During each of the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company paid total dividends of $1.6 million, on the Series A-1 and Series A-2 Preferred Stock.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan38 14 85 36 
Total Stock Compensation Expense$3,862 $3,041 $6,799 $7,670 

The 2021 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”) authorized 1,800,000 shares for issuance, plus the number of shares remaining for issuance under the prior stock plan and any future forfeited awards under the prior plan. Stock-based compensation is in the form of restricted stock awards (“RSAs”). The RSAs are subject to either service-based vesting, which is typically between one and four years, in which a specific period of continued employment must pass before an award vests, or performance-based vesting, which is typically between one and two years. The expense associated with these awards is recognized on a straight-line basis over the respective vesting period, with forfeitures accounted for as they occur. For any vesting tranche of an award, the cumulative amount of compensation cost recognized is equal to the portion of the grant‑date fair value of the award tranche that is actually vested at that date.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had granted 1,582,800 RSAs under the 2021 Plan and had 311,796 shares available for future issuance. The fair value of the restricted stock awards equaled the stock price at the grant date.

The following table summarizes the restricted stock activity during the six months ended June 30, 2023:

Balance of unvested shares as of June 30, 2023483,022 

Under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”), as amended and restated effective November 2021, 425,000 shares of common stock have been reserved for issuance. Eligible employees may designate no more than 10% of their base cash compensation to be deducted each pay period for the purchase of common stock under the ESPP. Participants may purchase no more than 1,000 shares or $25,000 of common stock in any one calendar year. Each January 31 and July 31, shares of common stock are purchased with the employees’ payroll deductions from the immediately preceding six months at a price per share of 85% of the lesser of the market price of the common stock on the purchase date or the market price of the common stock on the date of entry into an offering period. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, 5,506 and 9,919 shares of common stock, respectively, were issued under the ESPP. The Company issues new shares through its transfer agent upon an employee stock purchase.

The Company has two reportable segments: (i) Leasing and Related Operations which involves acquiring and leasing, primarily pursuant to operating leases, commercial aircraft, aircraft engines and other aircraft equipment and the selective purchase and resale of commercial aircraft engines and other aircraft equipment and other related businesses and (ii) Spare Parts Sales which involves the purchase and resale of after-market engine parts, whole engines, engine modules and portable aircraft components.

The Company evaluates the performance of each of the segments based on profit or loss after general and administrative expenses. While the Company believes there are synergies between the two business segments, the segments are managed separately because each requires different business strategies.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included under Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In addition, reference should be made to our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto and related “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Form 10-K”). In addition to historical consolidated financial information, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs, including potential impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the current rising interest rate and inflationary environment on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Our actual results may differ materially from those contained in or implied by any forward-looking statements. The financial information included in this discussion and in our consolidated financial statements may not be indicative of our consolidated financial position, operating results, changes in equity and cash flows in the future. See “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” included earlier in this report.
Overview

Our core business is acquiring and leasing commercial aircraft and aircraft engines and related aircraft equipment pursuant to operating leases, all of which we sometimes collectively refer to as “equipment.” As of June 30, 2023, the majority of our leases were operating leases, with the exception of certain failed sale-leaseback transactions classified as notes receivable under the guidance provided by Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842 and investments in sales-type leases. As of June 30, 2023, we had 80 lessees in 43 countries. Our portfolio is continually changing due to equipment acquisitions and sales. As of June 30, 2023, we had $2,161.7 million of equipment held in our operating lease portfolio, $95.0 million of notes receivable, $14.0 million of maintenance rights, and $5.8 million of investments in sales-type leases, which represented 348 engines, 12 aircraft, one marine vessel and other leased parts and equipment. As of June 30, 2023, we also managed 339 engines, aircraft and related equipment on behalf of other parties.

Our wholly-owned and vertically-integrated subsidiary Willis Asset Management Limited (“Willis Asset Management”) is focused on the engine management and consulting business. Willis Aeronautical Services, Inc. (“Willis Aero”) is a wholly-owned and vertically-integrated subsidiary whose primary focus is the sale of aircraft engine parts and materials through the acquisition or consignment of aircraft and engines.

We actively manage our portfolio and structure our leases to maximize the residual values of our leased assets. Our leasing business focuses on popular Stage IV commercial jet engines manufactured by CFMI, General Electric, Pratt & Whitney, Rolls Royce and International Aero Engines. These engines are the most widely used engines in the world, powering Airbus, Boeing, Bombardier and Embraer aircraft.

Risks and Uncertainties

The scope and nature of the impact of COVID-19 on the airline industry, and in turn the Company's business, continue to evolve and the outcomes are uncertain. Additionally, given the uncertainty in the rapidly changing market and economic conditions related to the current rising interest rate and inflationary environment, we will continue to evaluate the nature and extent of the impact to the Company's business and financial position. The ultimate extent of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and the current rising interest rate and inflationary environment on the Company will depend on future developments, and such effects could exist for an extended period of time.

Total revenue$108,996 $78,075 39.6 %

Lease Rent Revenue. Lease rent revenue consists of rental income from long-term and short-term engine leases, aircraft leases, and other leased parts and equipment. Lease rent revenue increased by $17.7 million, or 48.3%, to $54.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2023 from $36.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase is due to an increase in the number of engines acquired and placed on lease, including an increase in utilization compared to that of the prior period. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we purchased equipment (including capitalized costs) totaling $55.8 million, which consisted of nine engines and other parts and equipment purchased for our lease portfolio. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we purchased equipment (including capitalized costs) totaling $57.1 million, which consisted of four engines and other parts and equipment purchased for our lease portfolio.
One customer accounted for more than 10% of total lease rent revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
At June 30, 2023, the Company had $2,161.7 million of equipment held in our operating lease portfolio, $95.0 million of notes receivable, $14.0 million of maintenance rights, and $5.8 million of investments in sales-type leases. At June 30, 2022, the Company had $1,957.6 million of equipment held in our operating lease portfolio, $83.3 million of notes receivable, $22.5 million of maintenance rights, and $7.0 million of investments in sales-type leases. Average utilization (based on net book value) was approximately 84% and 82% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Maintenance Reserve Revenue. Maintenance reserve revenue increased $11.2 million, or 46.1%, to $35.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 from $24.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Long-term maintenance revenue is influenced by end of lease compensation and the realization of long-term maintenance reserves associated with engines coming off lease. There was $6.8 million long-term maintenance revenue recognized for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $15.1 million in the comparable prior period. “Non-reimbursable” maintenance reserve revenue is directly influenced by on lease engine flight hours and cycles. Engines out on lease with “non-reimbursable” usage fees generated $28.6 million of short-term maintenance revenues, compared to $9.2 million in the comparable prior period. As of June 30, 2023, there was $19.8 million of cumulative deferred in-substance fixed payment use fees included in “Unearned revenue.” These deferred in-substance fixed payment use fees represent portfolio utilization beyond the maintenance reserve revenues reflected in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

Spare Parts and Equipment Sales. Spare parts and equipment sales decreased by $2.2 million, or 33.0%, to $4.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $6.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. There were no equipment sales for each of the three months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022.

Interest Revenue. Interest revenue increased by $0.4 million, to $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 from $1.9 million in 2022. The increase is primarily the result of an increase in notes receivable of $11.8 million, partially offset by a decrease in investments in sales-type leases of $1.2 million.
25
Gain on Sale of Leased Equipment. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we sold two engines and other parts and equipment from the lease portfolio for a net gain of $4.5 million. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we sold eight engines from the lease portfolio for a net gain of $0.5 million.
Gain on Sale of Financial Assets. There was no gain on sale of financial assets during the three months ended June 30, 2023 as we did not sell any notes receivable. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we sold four notes receivable for a net gain of $3.1 million.
Other Revenue. Other revenue increased by $3.0 million, or 62.6%, to $7.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 from $4.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Other revenue consists primarily of management fee income, lease administration fees, third party consignment commissions earned, service fee revenue, and other discrete revenue items. The increase in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the prior year period primarily reflects increased managed service revenue.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense. Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $0.9 million, or 4.1%, to $22.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $21.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase reflects the growth in the portfolio as compared to the prior year period.
Cost of Spare Parts and Equipment Sales. Cost of spare parts and equipment sales decreased by $4.0 million, or 56.4%, to $3.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $7.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, reflecting the decline in spare parts sales. There were no equipment or cost of equipment sales for each of the three months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022.
Write-down of Equipment. Write-down of equipment was $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, reflecting the write-down of two engines. Write-down of equipment was $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased by $17.9 million, or 87.6%, to $38.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $20.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase reflects a $10.0 million increase in personnel costs, mainly due to the prior year period not including bonus accruals. Additionally, project costs increased by $1.8 million, primarily related to an increase in managed service revenues. Insurance costs increased by $1.0 million due to an increase in aviation hull war insurance as a result of the Russia and Ukraine conflict, and other taxes increased by $1.1 million due to an increase in business conducted in India.

Technical Expense. Technical expense consists of the non-capitalized cost of engine repairs, engine thrust rental fees, outsourced technical support services, sublease engine rental expense, engine storage and freight costs. Technical expense increased by $1.5 million, or 43.2%, to $4.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $3.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to a higher level of engine repair activity.

Net Finance Costs. Net finance costs increased $3.1 million, or 19.1%, to $19.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $16.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 due to higher levels of floating rate debt and an increase in one-month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), which drives borrowing costs in our revolving credit facility.

Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense was $5.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to income tax expense of $5.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2023 was 27.2% compared to 46.1% in the prior year period. The Company's effective tax rates differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to executive compensation exceeding $1.0 million as defined in Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

The increase is due to an increase in the number of engines acquired and placed on lease, including an increase in utilization compared to the prior year period. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we purchased equipment (including capitalized costs) totaling $111.4 million, which consisted of 14 engines and other parts and equipment purchased for our lease portfolio. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we purchased equipment (including capitalized costs) totaling $81.3 million, which primarily consisted of five engines and other parts and equipment purchased for our lease portfolio.
Two customers and one customer accounted for more than 10% of total lease rent revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
At June 30, 2023, the Company had $2,161.7 million of equipment held in our operating lease portfolio, $95.0 million of notes receivable, $14.0 million of maintenance rights, and $5.8 million of investments in sales-type leases. At June 30, 2022, the Company had $1,957.6 million of equipment held in our operating lease portfolio, $83.3 million of notes receivable, $22.5 million of maintenance rights, and $7.0 million of investments in sales-type leases.

Maintenance Reserve Revenue. Maintenance reserve revenue increased $19.8 million, or 50.8%, to $58.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $39.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Long-term maintenance revenue is influenced by end of lease compensation and the realization of long-term maintenance reserves associated with engines coming off lease. Long-term maintenance revenue was $6.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $23.3 million in the prior year period. “Non-reimbursable” maintenance reserve revenue is directly influenced by on lease engine flight hours and cycles. Engines out on lease with “non-reimbursable” usage fees generated $52.1 million of short-term maintenance revenues compared to $15.8 million in the comparable prior period. As of June 30, 2023, there was $19.8 million of cumulative deferred in-substance fixed payment use fees included in “Unearned revenue.” These deferred in-substance fixed payment use fees represent portfolio utilization beyond the maintenance reserve revenues reflected in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
 
Spare Parts and Equipment Sales. Spare parts and equipment sales decreased by $3.8 million, or 28.5%, to $9.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $13.4 million in the prior year period. There were no equipment sales during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.
 
Gain on Sale of Leased Equipment. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we sold four engines and other parts and equipment from the lease portfolio for a net gain of $4.3 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we sold 13 engines and other parts and equipment from the lease portfolio for a net gain of $2.8 million.
Gain on Sale of Financial Assets. There was no gain on sale of financial assets during the six months ended June 30, 2023 as we did not sell any notes receivable. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we sold four notes receivable for a net gain of $3.1 million.

27
Other Revenue. Other revenue increased by $4.1 million, or 42.1%, to $13.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $9.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Other revenue consists primarily of management fee income, lease administration fees, third party consignment commissions earned, service fee revenue, and other discrete revenue items. The increase for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the prior year period primarily reflects increased managed service revenue.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense. Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $1.6 million, or 3.7%, to $45.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $43.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase reflects the growth in the portfolio as compared to the prior year period.
 
Cost of Spare Parts and Equipment Sales. Cost of spare parts and equipment sales decreased by $4.3 million, or 36.4%, to $7.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $11.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, reflecting the decline in spare parts sales. There were no equipment or cost of equipment sales for each of the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.
 
Write-down of Equipment. Write-down of equipment was $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, reflecting the write-down of two engines. Write-down of equipment was $21.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily reflecting the write-down of three engines. Of this write-down, $20.4 million reflects the impairment of two engines located in Russia which were determined due to the Russia and Ukraine conflict to be unrecoverable. The remaining write-downs were in the ordinary course of business.
 
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased by $27.6 million, or 62.6%, to $71.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $44.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase primarily reflects a $13.9 million increase in personnel costs, mainly due to the prior year period not including bonus accruals. Additionally, project costs increased by $3.4 million, primarily related to an increase in managed service revenues. Insurance costs increased by $2.3 million due to an increase in aviation hull war insurance as a result of the Russia and Ukraine conflict, and other taxes increased by $3.0 million due to an increase in business conducted in India.
 
Technical Expense. Technical expense decreased by $1.3 million, or 14.7%, to $7.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $9.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to a lower level of engine repair activity.
 
Net Finance Costs. Net finance costs increased by $4.6 million, or 13.9%, to $37.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $32.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 due to higher levels of floating rate debt and an increase in LIBOR, which drives borrowing costs in our revolving credit facility.

Income Tax Expense (Benefit). Income tax expense was $7.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to income tax benefit of $(1.5) million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was 29.4% compared to 8.8% in the prior year period. The Company’s effective tax rates differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to executive compensation exceeding $1.0 million as defined in Section 162(m) of the Code and a discrete item recorded in 2022 associated with a write down of engines due to the Russia and Ukraine conflict.
Financial Position, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity
At June 30, 2023, the Company had $5.9 million of cash and cash equivalents, and $49.1 million of restricted cash. We fund our operations primarily from cash provided by our leasing activities. We finance our growth through borrowings secured primarily by our equipment lease portfolio. Cash of approximately $109.0 million and $59.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, was derived from our borrowing activities. In these same time periods, $131.4 million and $119.7 million, respectively, was used to pay down related debt.

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global business environment has caused and could result in additional customer bankruptcies, early lease returns, payment defaults, and rental concessions which could reduce rent or result in deferred customer payments, negatively impacting our financial results.

For any interest rate swaps that we enter into, we will be exposed to risk in the event of non-performance of the interest rate hedge counter-parties. We may hedge additional amounts of our floating rate debt in the future.

Cash Flows Discussion
Cash flows provided by operating activities were $98.5 million and $57.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Cash flows from operations are driven significantly by payments made under our lease agreements, which comprise lease revenue, security deposits and maintenance reserves, and are offset by interest expense and general and administrative costs. Cash received as maintenance reserve payments for some of our engines on lease are partially restricted by our debt arrangements. The lease revenue stream, in the short-term, is at fixed rates while a portion of our debt is at variable rates. If interest rates increase, it is unlikely we could increase lease rates in the short term and this would cause a reduction in our earnings and operating cash flows. Revenue and maintenance reserves are also affected by the amount of equipment off lease. Approximately 82% and 80%, by book value, of our assets were on-lease as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The average utilization rate (based on net book value) for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was approximately 85% and 83%, respectively. If there is an increase in off-lease rates or deterioration in lease rates that are not offset by reductions in interest rates, there will be a negative impact on earnings and cash flows from operations.

Cash flows used in investing activities were $103.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and primarily reflected $111.4 million for the purchase of equipment held for operating lease (including capitalized costs and prepaid deposits made in the period), partly offset by proceeds from sale of equipment (net of selling expenses) of $23.4 million. Cash flows used in investing activities were $8.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and primarily reflected $15.3 million related to leases entered into which were classified as notes receivable under ASC 842 and $81.3 million for the purchase of equipment held for operating lease (including capitalized costs and prepaid deposits made in the period), partly offset by proceeds from sale of equipment and notes receivable (net of selling expenses) of $47.7 million and $40.7 million, respectfully.
Cash flows used in financing activities were $29.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and primarily reflected $131.4 million in principal payments, offset by $109.0 million in proceeds from debt obligations. Cash flows used in financing activities were $70.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and primarily reflected $119.7 million in principal payments and $5.2 million of share repurchases, offset by $59.0 million in proceeds from debt obligations.
Preferred Stock Dividends
The Company’s Series A-1 Preferred Stock and Series A-2 Preferred Stock accrue quarterly dividends at the rate per annum of 6.5% per share. During each of the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company paid total dividends of $1.6 million on the Series A-1 and Series A-2 Preferred Stock.
Debt Obligations and Covenant Compliance
At June 30, 2023, debt obligations consisted of loans totaling $1,827.0 million, net of unamortized issuance costs, payable with interest rates varying between approximately 3.1% and 7.4%. Substantially all of our assets are pledged to secure our obligations to creditors. For further information on our debt instruments, see Note 5 “Debt Obligations” in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Virtually all of our debt requires our ongoing compliance with certain financial covenants including debt/equity ratios, minimum tangible net worth and minimum interest coverage ratios, and other eligibility criteria including customer and geographic concentration restrictions. Under our revolving credit facility, we can borrow no more than 85% of an engine’s net book value and 65% of an airframe’s, spare parts inventory’s or other assets net book value. Therefore, we must have other available funds for the balance of the purchase price of any new equipment to be purchased. Our revolving credit facility, certain indentures and other debt related agreements also contain cross-default provisions. If we do not comply with the covenants or eligibility requirements, we may not be permitted to borrow additional funds and accelerated payments may become necessary. Additionally, much of the debt is secured by engines and aircraft, and to the extent that engines or aircraft are sold, repayment of that portion of the debt could be required.

At June 30, 2023, we were in compliance with the covenants specified in our revolving credit facility, including the Interest Coverage Ratio requirement of at least 2.25 to 1.00, and the Total Leverage Ratio requirement to remain below 4.00 to 1.00. The Interest Coverage Ratio, as defined in the credit facility, is the ratio of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) and other one-time charges to consolidated interest expense. The Total Leverage Ratio, as defined in the credit facility, is the ratio of total indebtedness to tangible net worth. At June 30, 2023, we were in compliance with the covenants specified in the WEST III, WEST IV, WEST V and WEST VI indentures and servicing and other debt related agreements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2023, we had no material off-balance sheet arrangements or obligations that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, change in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources that are material to investors.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

Repayments of our gross debt obligations primarily consist of scheduled installments due under term loans and are funded by the use of unrestricted cash reserves and from cash flows from ongoing operations. The table below summarizes our contractual commitments at June 30, 2023:

Total$2,500,461 $957,963 $486,410 $794,604 $261,484 

From time to time we enter into contractual commitments to purchase engines directly from original equipment manufacturers. As of the date of this report we are committed to purchase 18 additional new LEAP-1A engines for $282.8 million and nine additional new LEAP-1B engines for $141.9 million. Our purchase agreements generally contain terms that allow the Company to defer or cancel purchase commitments in certain situations. These deferrals or conversions would not result in penalties or increased costs other than any potential increase due to the normal year-over-year change in engine list prices, which is akin to ordinary inflation. The Company continues to expect demand for LEAP-1B engines to increase as the 737 Max continues to be re-certified and aircraft (and their installed engines) that have been parked and in storage for more than one year begin the technical process of returning to service.

In December 2020, we entered into definitive agreements for the purchase of 25 modern technology aircraft engines. As part of the purchase, we have committed to certain future overhaul and maintenance services which are anticipated to range between $77.7 million and $112.0 million by 2030.

We have estimated the interest payments due under debt obligations by applying the interest rates applicable at June 30, 2023 to the remaining debt, adjusted for the estimated debt repayments identified in the table above. Actual interest payments made will vary due to changes in the rates.

We believe our equity base, internally generated funds and existing debt facilities are sufficient to maintain our level of operations for the next twelve months. A decline in the level of internally generated funds could result if the amount of equipment off-lease increases, there is a decrease in availability under our existing debt facilities, or there is a significant step-up in borrowing costs. Such decline would impair our ability to sustain our level of operations. We continue to discuss additions to our capital base with our commercial and investment banks. If we are not able to access additional capital, our ability to continue to grow our asset base consistent with historical trends will be impaired and our future growth limited to that which can be funded from internally generated capital. The Company plans to extend the maturity date of its credit facility through an amendment to the credit agreement prior to June 2024.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Our primary market risk exposure is that of interest rate risk. A change in rates would affect our cost of borrowing. Increases in interest rates, which may cause us to raise the implicit rates charged to our customers, could result in a reduction in demand for our leases. Alternatively, we may price our leases based on market rates so as to keep the fleet on-lease and suffer a decrease in our operating margin due to interest costs that we are unable to pass on to our customers. As of June 30, 2023, $758.0 million of our outstanding debt is variable rate debt. We estimate that for every one percent increase or decrease in interest rates on our variable rate debt, net of our interest rate swaps, our annual interest expense would increase or decrease by $2.6 million.
We hedge a portion of our borrowings from time to time, effectively fixing the rate of these borrowings. This hedging activity helps protect us against reduced margins on longer term fixed rate leases. Such hedging activities may limit our ability to participate in the benefits of any decrease in interest rates but may also protect us from increases in interest rates. Furthermore, since lease rates tend to vary with interest rate levels, it is possible that we can adjust lease rates for the effect of changes in interest rates at the termination of leases. Other financial assets and liabilities are at fixed rates.
We are also exposed to currency devaluation risk. Substantially all of our leases require payment in U.S. dollars. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, 66% and 57%, respectively, of our lease rent revenues came from non-United States domiciled lessees. If these lessees’ currency devalues against the U.S. dollar, the lessees could potentially encounter difficulty in making their lease payments.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. In accordance with Rule 13a-15(b) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness and design of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that as of June 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b) Inherent Limitations on Controls. Management, including the CEO and CFO, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent or detect all error and fraud. Any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that its objectives will be met. Further, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.

(c) Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2023 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
