AAR appoints Wolin as CFO

AAR Corp has announced that its board of directors has appointed Dylan Wolin as its chief financial officer, effective February 23, 2026.

Wolin’s responsibilities will include finance, accounting, tax, treasury, investor relations, and corporate development.

Wolin will rejoin AAR Corp from Federal Signal Corporation, where he served as president of Elgin, Trackless, and Vactor, the company’s primarily municipal-focused specialty vehicle businesses, from 2024 to 2026.

From 2017 to 2024, Wolin led AAR Corp’s strategic and corporate development, treasury, and investor relations functions. He helped lead the company’s portfolio repositioning, capital markets activities, and strategic planning, including the acquisitions of Trax and Triumph Product Support.

Before joining AAR Corp and Federal Signal, Wolin was a director in Boeing’s Corporate Development group, where he was responsible for merger, acquisition, and joint venture transactions.

Prior to Boeing, he served as a vice president in Deutsche Bank’s Global Industrials Group within its investment banking division. Earlier in his career, Wolin was an associate at McManus & Miles, a boutique investment bank specialising in financial advisory and private placements.

Wolin earned a Bachelor of Arts in economics from Tufts University and a Master of Business Administration in finance from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.

John M. Holmes, AAR Corp’s chairman, president and chief executive, said: “I worked very closely with Dylan during his seven years at AAR. He was instrumental in developing the strategy we are executing today. I am thrilled he is rejoining our senior leadership team, bringing valuable additional operational and strategic experience.

“I would also like to thank Sarah Flanagan for her service as our interim-CFO. Sarah is a deeply valued member of our team, and I am looking forward to her continued leadership in our finance organisation.”

Flanagan will return to her previous role as vice president, financial operations, effective February 23, 2026.

Wolin said: “AAR’s strong team, unique customer value proposition, and exciting additional growth opportunities underscore the company’s compelling future. I am eager to partner with John and the rest of the AAR team to drive continued execution of AAR’s growth strategy.”
