Gama Aviation to delist from AIM UK business aviation services company Gama Aviation unveiled plans to delist from the junior stock market: the Alternative Investment Market (Aim). Under the delisting plan, the company has proposed to return up to £32.6m to shareholders by way of a tender offer at 95 pence per ordinary share capable of acceptance by all eligible shareholders. The company said that the legal and regulatory burden associated to trading on the AIM is disproportionate to its benefits. In addition, with average daily volume over the past 12 months of approximately 14,900 shares (0.02% of the issued share capital), the company said that the costs associated with maintaining the AIM quotation are high and could be better utilised. The company has not raised any fresh capital from AIM since 2018. #charteraviation #airtravel #aviation #business #HEMS #Delisting #AIM #LSE #Stocks #Earnings Read full below. https://lnkd.in/e4jvZVB8

Kazakhstan's largest airline to attract investors through IPO 🇰🇿 Air Astana, Kazakhstan's largest airline group, has announced plans to attract investors through a long-expected initial public offering (IPO). The offering is expected to take place on the stock exchanges in Kazakhstan (AIX and KASE) and London (LSE) with the aim to raise US$120 million. In addition, current shareholders, UK’s BAe Systems and Kazakhstan’s Samruk Kazyna sovereign wealth fund plan to sell part of their stakes. If the decision gets green light, the book-building process, including the announcement of the price range and a roadshow, is to be launched around the end of January 2024. “We are confident that the initial public offering will accelerate the next stage of growth for the Air Astana Group," noted Peter Foster, the group's president. Air Astana has stated its intention to expand its fleet from 49 to 80 aircraft by 2028. This expansion will enable the airline to densify existing routes and expand into new geographical regions. The company aims to transform into a hub airline with a full range of services connecting the Central Asia and Caucasus region with major aviation markets such as China, India, the Middle East, and Europe. According to Air Astana, the use of narrowbody aircraft, especially on these routes, will give it an advantage over competitors flying widebody aircraft. Furthermore, the company will continue to develop its network of leisure destinations and premium-class business trips to neighboring international markets. The group's budget carrier, FlyArystan, plans to expand by entering underserved routes or routes operated by a single operator within a three-hour radius in Western and Central China, India, the Persian Gulf, Pakistan, and Eastern Europe. In the last twelve months ending on September 30, 2023, the Air Astana Group carried 8 million passengers, generating revenue of US$1.186 billion during this period. Subscribe to @CentralAsiaPlusAero

UK-based Gama Aviation, a leader in business aviation services, has announced its plan to delist from the Alternative Investment Marketing (AIM) and increase its capital return to shareholders. The company plans to offer a tender of up to £32.6 million at 95 pence per share, accessible to all eligible shareholders. Citing the legal and regulatory complexities and the high costs of maintaining its AIM listing, which have not been offset by benefits since the last capital was raised in 2018, Gama Aviation sees this move as a strategic step to optimize resources. The company’s trading volume has been relatively low, with an average daily volume over the past year constituting just 0.02% of issued share capital. This decision follows the sale of its US Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) business in October 2023, after which it initially returned £16.5 million to shareholders. The recent decision to increase the capital return, endorsed by top shareholders Marwan Khalek and Bermesico who will not tender their shares, aims to balance funding strategic projects while enhancing shareholder value. Despite current challenges including a loss-making status and cash outflows, Gama Aviation is focused on growth. The company is encouraged by new contracts such as the Wales Air Ambulance Charity • Elusen Ambiwlans Awyr Cymru and oil and gas contracts expected to generate significant revenue over the coming years. The delisting process includes several key dates, with the general meeting scheduled for May 15th, 2024, and the cancellation of the trading on AIM set for May 31st, 2024.

Aviation is one of the hardest sectors to decarbonise and it’s going to take partnerships across industries to help close the gap between the supply and demand of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). We’ve joined with Airbus, Air France-KLM, Mitsubishi HC Capital America, Inc., BNP Paribas, AEG FUELS and Burnham Sterling Asset Management (as fund manager) to help accelerate global production of SAF. The Sustainable Aviation Fuel Financing Alliance (SAFFA) fund has been formed to invest in SAF technology development and production projects with an initial focus on opportunities that repurpose existing infrastructure. Our investment in the SAFFA fund will help us access SAF sooner in key overseas markets and help drive the development of the overall industry, while we maintain our strong focus on Australian projects to accelerate the establishment of a domestic industry.

It’s our largest Qantas Climate Fund investment yet and with some very significant partners. To get more SAF in to the wing of our aircraft we’re working hard here in Australia and globally with a coalition of equally determined collaborators. This week’s announcement sees us and six other partners from around the world commit $US200m in to SAF, with the flying kangaroo initially committing US$50m (AU$75m) from our Climate Fund. The Sustainable Aviation Fuel Financing Alliance (SAFFA) fund has been formed with anchor-investor Airbus as well as Qantas, Air France-KLM, Mitsubishi HC Capital Inc., BNP Paribas, Associated Energy Group, and Burnham Sterling Asset Management. Thank you to the whole Qantas team who helped make this happen and Airbus for your leadership on SAFFA. Through SAFFA, the partners will invest in SAF technology development and production projects with an initial focus on opportunities that repurpose existing infrastructure. Investments will be initially focused in the United States, but in time are expected to be diversified across various SAF production pathways and regions. Qantas and the SAFFA partners will also have opportunities to enter into priority offtake contracts for the supply of SAF produced through the supported projects. The fund made its first investment in April in US-based technology company Crysalis Biosciences, which aims to renew chemical manufacturing infrastructure with new fuel and chemical production technologies. SAFFA will invest in projects that are technologically mature with a focus on commercial viability to help improve access to and drive down the cost of low-carbon fuels. We are confident the SAFFA fund will enable us to get priority access to SAF sooner in key overseas markets while helping drive the development of the overall industry. And in addition to this investment in SAFFA, we continue to deeply evaluate additional domestic opportunities for investment from our Fund which we expect to finalise in the coming months. So from Far North Queensland, Western Australia, Illinois, the UK, Europe and California our investments in, and uptake of SAF and associated feedstocks continues.
