Over the past 12 months, inventory in the Citation Bravo market has tightened meaningfully, with available aircraft down 21% compared to this time last year. During that same period, pricing has adjusted, though more recent trends suggest that pricing is beginning to stabilize. Transaction activity remains active. Days on market have increased, indicating a more deliberate buyer approach, particularly in a segment where aircraft condition and configuration can vary significantly between aircraft. There have been 40 retail sales in the past 12 months, and notably 11 aircraft have traded in 2026 alone. These transactions span across the full production range, 1997 to 2006 model years. Based on current supply and demand trends, the segment is carrying 7.3 months of inventory. This reflects a relatively tight but competitive resale environment where well-positioned aircraft continue to transact. One thing we continue to see in this segment is that buyers are highly focused on maintenance history, engine program participation, and avionics upgrades. In a legacy platform like the Bravo, differences in configuration and overall condition tend to have a meaningful impact on both buyer engagement and execution timing. In summary, the Citation Bravo remains a proven and widely recognized platform within the light jet segment. While buyers remain disciplined, well-maintained and properly-configured aircraft continue to attract consistent interest, and transact steadily. Overall, I would assign the segment a B market demand rating.

This market continues to tighten meaningfully, with the available aircraft down about 17% from one year ago. Pricing has adjusted, with average asking prices down approximately 20% over the last year, reflecting a more selective buying environment. In terms of transaction activity, Citation Bravo's continue to transact, though at a slightly slower pace than last year. The days on market have also increased, up forty-nine percent from this time last year, as buyers take more time evaluating available options. Over the past 12 months, there have been 41 retail sales, with 10 of them occurring in December. Seven additional Citation Bravo's have transacted since the beginning of 2026. Recent sales activity from the beginning of December through mid-February 2026 span all model years, 1997 through 2006, highlighting continued interest across the fleet. Based on the current supply and demand trends, the market is carrying approximately five to six months of inventory, which points to a balanced selling environment. In markets like this, where inventory is tighter, but buyers are more deliberate, sellers who position early tend to retain more control over pricing and timing. In summary, this remains a stable market. The Citation Bravo benefits from long-term OEM and aftermarket support as a legacy platform. Supply and demand are balanced and in alignment. Overall, I'd categorize the Citation Bravo market as a seller's market and give it a B, demand rating.
