Other Events
On September 7, 2023, the board of directors (the “Board”) of AerCap Holdings N.V. (“AerCap”) approved a share repurchase program authorizing total repurchases of up to $650 million of AerCap ordinary shares through December 31, 2023 (the
“September Repurchase Program”).
Previously, AerCap announced that in April 2023 the Board approved a share repurchase program authorizing total repurchases of up to $500 million of AerCap ordinary shares through September 30, 2023 (the “April Share Repurchase Program”) and that
in July 2023 the Board approved additional repurchases of up to $500 million of AerCap ordinary shares through December 31, 2023 (the “July Share Repurchase Program” and, together with the April Share Repurchase Program and the September Share
Repurchase Program, the “Share Repurchase Programs”). As of September 7, 2023, AerCap had repurchased 6,014,716 ordinary shares under the April Share Repurchase Program for approximately $357.2 million and no shares under the July Share Repurchase
Program or September Repurchase Program. As a result, AerCap has an aggregate capacity of $1.3 billion for share repurchases under its Share Repurchase Programs as of September 7, 2023.
Repurchases under the Share Repurchase Programs may be made through open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions in accordance with applicable U.S. federal securities laws. The timing of repurchases and the exact number of ordinary
shares to be purchased will be determined by AerCap’s management, in its discretion, and will depend upon market conditions and other factors. The program will be funded using AerCap’s cash on hand and cash generated from operations. The program may
be suspended or discontinued at any time.
The information contained in this Form 6-K is incorporated by reference into the Company’s Registration Statements on Form F-3, File Nos. 333-270326 and 333-260359, Registration Statements on Form S-8, File Nos. 333-194638, 333-194637, 333-180323,
