The DAE Engineering division was restructured in 2013 to create an organization structure that is more efficient and more responsive to our customers. New leadership at the Engineering division is contributing to continuing improvement in margins and performance metrics. The DAE Capital division continued its growth trajectory in 2013 by adding high quality assets on lease to leading airlines. The net book value of the portfolio grew by approximately US$900 million during the last two years and currently stands at US$3.3 billion. We are adding key resources to the team and positioning DAE Capital for successful growth.”
