Significant events
- “During the year the Company acquired direct and indirect subsidiaries as part of the Group's transaction to acquire a portfolio of aircraft from ALAFCO Aviation Lease and Finance Company K.S.C.P. ("ALAFCO"). The subsidiaries' acquisition was financed by a combination of equity and external borrowings. In addition, the Company issued unsecured notes in the capital markets totalling $1.2 billion. The proceeds were lent to direct and indirect subsidiaries as related party loans. During the year, the Company drew down and repaid $675 million from a revolving credit facility. No balance was outstanding on the revolving credit facility as at 31 March 2025.”
- “On 30 August 2024, the guarantee for the Company's financial debt was terminated following an amendment to the Company's unsecured credit agreement. All guarantees associated with the Company's indenture were released on that date.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
