GE
AerCap completed the acquisition of GECAS from GE on November 1, 2021. Immediately following the completion of the GECAS Transaction, GE held approximately 46% of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares. Consequently, GE became a related party upon the Closing Date of the GECAS Transaction. We may purchase, sell or lease flight equipment from/to GE.
During the year ended December 31, 2023, we repurchased an aggregate of 36.4 million of our ordinary shares from GE at an average price of $58.86 per ordinary share. Please refer to Note 18—Equity.
Upon completion of the November Secondary Offering and the concurrent share repurchase on November 16, 2023, GE no longer beneficially owned any of our outstanding ordinary shares and is no longer a related party.
