Operating in a fast-evolving aviation sector,  Aquila faced mounting reporting obligations  to multiple stakeholders. Their internal  reporting process had become increasingly  resource-intensive, diverting focus from  strategic growth. 

In 2024, Aquila also underwent a capital  transition with new partner, presenting  an opportunity to accelerate growth  and expand market reach. The process  demanded thorough due diligence and  enhanced governance structures.  

To meet these challenges, Aquila needed  a partner with deep industry and local  expertise to streamline monthly financial  reporting, ensure regulatory compliance,  and support the transaction process during  a critical growth phase.

Vistra streamlined Aquila’s reporting  obligations by developing a consolidated  financial reporting pack and a custom  waterfall template. Leveraging our aviation  focused accounting system “SUN”, we  efficiently extracted key data to support  management reporting, enabling Aquila’s  leadership to focus on strategic operations. 

In 2024, during the critical capital transition  to new investor, Vistra worked alongside  other financial advisors to compile historical  financial data in a highly compressed  timeline for due diligence.  

We delivered this support in addition  to our regular services, helping Aquila  meet transaction demands while freeing  up management to concentrate on the  commercial aspects of the sale.

• The monthly reporting now meets  management and stakeholder requirements which allow them to make  informed commercial decisions. Vistra  also assists with liaising with various  advisors on local and global compliance  requirements while also considering  commercial impacts for the client. 

• Aquila’s partnership with Vistra allow  them to streamline operations.  

• Since onboarding, we have built a strong  working relationship with the client  team and cultivated open, two-way  communication.
