Equity Bottom-Up

BOC Aviation is a leading global aircraft operating leasing company. It offers direct operating and finance leases, sale and leaseback facilities, engine finance leases, and third-party asset management, along with aircraft remarketing and technical management services. The company is headquartered in Singapore and was founded in 1993.

<ul>
<li>Global aviation supply continues to suffer from various supply chain disruptions, driving up lease rates and aircraft values and benefiting aircraft lessors, such as BOC Aviation (BOCA) </li>
<li>Although BOCA's interim results were disappointing due to delayed aircraft deliveries, I expect its momentum to recover in 2025, driven by incoming aircraft and lower interest costs. </li>
<li>Stock is trading at 0.9x PB, nearing its historical trough of 0.8x, and offering a decent 5% dividend yield.</li>
