A global aviation aftermarket provider, AAR keeps aircraft flying by supplying new and used parts, repairing and overhauling airframes and components, and selling maintenance software to airlines and MRO shops worldwide. It also builds AI tools like its Airvoyant procurement platform. The company started in 1951 when founder Ira Allen Eichner began selling surplus radios from his fiancée's borrowed capital in Chicago; renamed Allen Aircraft Radio in 1962, it eventually adopted the initials as its name. That university student's tiny parts business grew into one of the largest aviation-services firms in the world.

On July 23, 2026, AAR CORP.'s Human Capital and Compensation Committee approved a long-term performance incentive grant of 161,500 performance-based restricted shares to Chairman, CEO and President John M. Holmes.
The shares cliff vest on July 31, 2031, subject to continued service, and vest in thirds when the 30-day volume-weighted average stock price reaches $175, $200, and $250 per share.
The stock price hurdles represent premiums of 35%, 54%, and 93% over the $129.47 closing price on the grant date, and full vesting would require the stock price to more than double from the end of fiscal 2026.
The award is a special grant separate from Mr. Holmes' regular annual long-term incentive compensation, intended to incentivize long-term retention and stockholder value creation.
