Australian carrier has recorded a $113 million impairment charge related to its Fokker aircraft fleet.
The write-down reflects a reassessment of the carrying value of the aircraft, taking into account market conditions, future demand expectations, and long-term fleet strategy. Impairment charges are typically recorded when the book value of assets exceeds their recoverable value.
Alliance Aviation has long operated Fokker aircraft, particularly for charter and contract services across Australia. However, aging aircraft types and evolving market dynamics have prompted airlines globally to review the financial viability of older fleets.
The impairment does not necessarily signal an immediate withdrawal of the aircraft but highlights financial adjustments aligned with accounting standards and forward planning.
The move comes amid broader fleet modernization trends across the aviation industry, as carriers evaluate operating costs, efficiency, and sustainability considerations.
Further updates on fleet plans and financial performance are expected in the company’s upcoming disclosures.
