Over the past 12 months, the Citation Sovereign market has remained notably strong, with available inventory declining approximately 30% year-over-year.  At the same time, asking values have increased roughly 12%, reflecting continued demand for mid-size aircraft offering strong runway flexibility and proven mission capability.  From a transaction standpoint, activity across the Sovereign market remains healthy. Days on market have decreased approximately 25% year-over-year, indicating that well-positioned aircraft continue to attract buyer attention and transact efficiently.  Over the past 12 months, there have been 58 retail sales, with an additional 14 transactions already recorded in 2026, involving aircraft vintages from 2004 through 2009. Looking at supply and demand, the market is currently carrying approximately 4.8 months of inventory, which continues to support competitive conditions within the midsize segment. Buyers remain active, particularly for aircraft with current maintenance, updated avionics, and strong cosmetic presentation. The Citation Sovereign continues to appeal to operators because of its combination of runway performance, cabin comfort, range capability, and operating flexibility.  For many owners, the Sovereign represents an aircraft capable of supporting a wide variety of missions, while maintaining the practical operating characteristics that continue to make the platform attractive in today's market. In summary, the Citation Sovereign market remains strong, with limited inventory and healthy transaction activity continuing into 2026. Overall, I'd characterize the Sovereign market as competitive, and assign it a B demand rating. For owners considering a sale, thoughtful preparation, maintenance status, and overall aircraft condition continue to play an important role in buyer response.
