current market drivers<br />

the Pre-oWned aircraft market<br />

more than 85% of new business jet orders<br />

originate from existing owners, either to<br />

replace or expand their fleet. the demand for<br />

new aircraft is stimulated by the conditions<br />

prevailing on the pre-owned market. this<br />

market is considered healthy when residual<br />

values are high and when the inventory of<br />

used aircraft for sale is low.<br />

At the end of 2007, the pre-owned inventory<br />

sat at a low of 10.5% of the business aircraft<br />

fleet. the accumulation of aircraft on the<br />

pre-owned market was a leading indicator of<br />

the new business aircraft market downturn<br />

that started a year later.<br />

in early 2008, the percentage of the overall<br />

business jet fleet for sale on the pre-owned<br />

market started to increase rapidly. many<br />

owners experienced difficulties selling their<br />

aircraft, which, in turn, made these owners<br />

less likely to purchase new aircraft. the<br />

inventory peaked at 17.8% in Q2 2009.<br />

financing became very difficult for aircraft<br />

more than 15 years old.<br />

from mid-2009 until now, sales of pre-owned<br />

aircraft have increased and inventory has<br />

<strong>Market</strong> forecast <strong>2012</strong>-<strong>2031</strong><br />

declined. by Q1 <strong>2012</strong>, pre-owned inventories<br />

continued to fall, to 13.6%. We expect<br />

pre-owned inventories to stabilize in the<br />

range of 11% to 13% of the fleet.<br />

As for residual values, they remained elevated<br />

through the first half of 2008 due to manufacturers’<br />

long backlogs. since then, residual<br />

values have dropped across all aircraft categories.<br />

during 2009, average business jet residual<br />

values fell by 27 percentage points. by Q1 <strong>2012</strong>,<br />

residual values appeared to have bottomed<br />

with the average value for a 5-year old business<br />

jet at 63% of the original business & commercial<br />
