We are proud to announce that our shareholder, Sumitomo Mitsui Finance and Leasing Company, Limited (SMFL), has been recognised with a major accolade at the renowned Helicopter Investor London 2026 Awards, taking home the premier Overall Deal of the Year award.

This prestigious industry award honours SMFL’s landmark acquisition and integration of LCI and Macquarie Rotorcraft Limited, a transformative transaction that led to the launch earlier this year of SMFL Helicopters as a unified, global leasing platform.

Our thanks to the Helicopter Investor team for hosting an outstanding event, and our congratulations to all of this year’s fellow winners.

We extend our deepest gratitude to our shareholder, customers, partners, and our exceptional global team. This award reflects the dedication, collaboration, and shared vision required to bring this exciting new chapter in helicopter leasing to life.
