SINGAPORE and NEW YORK, Sept. 23, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — PT Garuda Maintenance Facility Aero Asia Tbk (GMF), part of Garuda Indonesia Group, and FTAI Aviation Ltd. (Nasdaq: FTAI) have strengthened their strategic collaboration to build a long-term partnership focused on expanding GMF’s Engine and APU maintenance capacity and capabilities, while strengthening its market presence across Asia-Pacific. The collaboration will initially cover CFM56-5B and CFM56-7B engines and GTCP131-9 series APUs, with guaranteed capacity for FTAI over the next five years. The strategic collaboration was formalized during MRO Asia-Pacific 2026 at Singapore EXPO, Singapore.

Building on an existing relationship in which GMF provides engine maintenance services for FTAI, the strategic partnership provides a foundation to progressively expand into deeper module and piece-part capabilities and next-generation engines, including CFM LEAP.

Andi Fahrurrozi, GMF CEO, stated, “This collaboration responds to growing engine maintenance demand from FTAI, its customers, and the broader aviation market across the region by leveraging GMF’s existing MRO capabilities and capacity. Supported by the technical expertise of both parties, this collaboration will enable us to broaden our customer base across Asia-Pacific and globally, while progressively strengthening our capabilities and capacity to meet evolving market needs.”

“GMF has been a trusted engine maintenance partner to FTAI and this collaboration builds on that relationship with dedicated capacity for our customers across the Asia-Pacific,” said David Moreno, President of FTAI. “The region is home to a large and growing share of our customer base. Bringing committed engine volumes to GMF puts maintenance capacity closer to those customers with faster turnaround times. Backed by an established facility, a skilled workforce and FTAI’s technical support, GMF is well positioned to expand into module and piece-part repair and help extend the life of the CFM56 engine.”

With its existing facility, qualified technicians and engineers, quality systems, tools, and equipment, GMF provides an established MRO platform for the partnership. FTAI’s technical expertise and training support will reinforce GMF’s technical capabilities and manpower development. At the same time, the additional workload generated by FTAI and its customers will create further opportunities to accelerate the expansion of the engine maintenance business.

The collaboration is also expected to strengthen the engine MRO supply chain by improving access to materials, spare parts, and components, while creating opportunities to enhance availability and cost.

Looking ahead, the strategic collaboration opens opportunities for GMF to serve as a key regional MRO partner for FTAI and its customers across the Asia-Pacific, with a shared long-term vision to build a competitive and sustainable engine maintenance business

“This collaboration is designed to address customer needs for maintenance slot availability, improved turnaround times, consistent quality, and flexibility. We aim to deliver more competitive MRO solutions for customers across the region. Together with FTAI, we also look forward to exploring broader strategic collaboration opportunities beyond our existing business,” Andi concluded.

Dear Shareholders and Investors,

I am very pleased to inform you that the market conditions for our vessels continue to be exceptionally solid. We expect this development to continue.

We have previously informed you about the high freight rates that we enjoy.

This unprecedented development continues. The closing or opening of the Strait of Hormuz does not impact the NAT operations in any way. The essential measure for NAT, is ton-mile, i.e., transportation work. The NAT ships are needed.

Lower and decreasing price of oil, is an advantage for NAT. The lower the price, the better.

The main question is the safe transportation of oil, and the demand for our ships is critical. How much oil do NAT carry and over how long distances?

NAT has a strong relationship with the largest oil companies in the world. This is  essential for our success. They have confidence in us, our crews and in the quality of our vessels.

For further information on Nordic American Tankers, please see our web page www.nat.bm
