StandardAero (SARO) went public on the NYSE on October 2, 2024, raising $1.3 billion in its IPO. In the past six months, the stock decreased by 12.1% from $28.66 on January 1, 2026, to $25.1950 by May 9, 2026.

Adjusted EBITDA margins compressed by 130 basis points to 12.5% due to one-time costs, accelerated burn-down of low-to-no margin pass-through material inventory, and learning curves on new engine programs. The company raised its full-year 2026 guidance, increasing revenue, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EPS projections, while reiterating free cash flow guidance. During the first quarter of 2026, the company repurchased $60 million of its shares as part of a $450 million authorization plan and announced the acquisition of Unified Turbines, LLC. An insider, Lewis Prebble, sold 1,141 shares of the stock on April 16, 2026.
