jetAVIVA Announces Record 2025 Performance, Delivering Best Results in Company History

Firm accelerates up-market momentum while maintaining leadership in Citation and Phenom segments

Melbourne, FL – January 29, 2026 – jetAVIVA today announced record results for 2025, delivering the strongest annual revenue performance in the company’s 20-year history. The firm exceeded its annual forecast, driven by continued leadership in the light jet market and major gains in the super-mid and large cabin categories.

Based on total transaction volume, jetAVIVA ranked as the second highest-producing IADA-Accredited firm in the world, according to Jetnet’s Top Dealers report, reflecting strong execution and consistent client demand in an increasingly complex market environment.

jetAVIVA’s performance was anchored by its sustained strength in the highly competitive light jet segments, particularly the Cessna Citation and Embraer Phenom markets, categories where the firm remains a trusted leader for buyers and sellers seeking specialized guidance and market insight. One of jetAVIVA’s longest-tenured sales professionals, Jade Hofeldt, continues her leadership in the Citation Mustang market – buying and selling more of the popular entry level jet than any other firm or broker worldwide. 

At the same time, 2025 marked a significant step forward in jetAVIVA’s strategic expansion up market. Super-Mid and Large Cabin transactions grew to more than 40% of total revenue, nearly tripling year-over-year contribution. jetAVIVA attributed its surge in super-mid and large cabin results to both strategic focus and key additions to the sales team. Jim Lewis and Michael Barber joined in 2025 and helped accelerate the firm’s capabilities and reach in higher-category aircraft transactions.

jetAVIVA also strengthened its position in the highly specialized Embraer Praetor segments, where the firm led in market share, performance driven by the team’s deep product expertise and long-tenured leadership. The firm credited the commitment and steady leadership of company President Ryan Scott as instrumental in delivering consistent results in this demanding market niche.

“2025 was a year of disciplined execution and momentum,” said Ben Dow, Sr. Managing Director & Vice President, Sales, who led the team’s performance while also stepping into new leadership responsibilities. “I’m proud of how our team showed up for clients—through an evolving market, greater deal complexity, and more variables in every transaction. We stayed focused on outcomes, and we delivered.”

Looking ahead, jetAVIVA plans to further expand its large cabin efforts while continuing to strengthen its market leadership in the light jet segments. The firm also commits to providing the highest level of support to its clients as transaction complexity increases.

“Reaching this milestone year is a powerful reminder of why we built jetAVIVA the way we did: relationships first and expertise always,” said Emily Deaton, CEO of jetAVIVA. “We’re deeply grateful to the clients who have trusted us throughout our first two decades of service to this industry, and we’re equally excited for the new clients we look forward to meeting. Our commitment remains the same: deliver exceptional guidance, earn trust through expertise, and help every client feel supported and empowered throughout their aviation journey.”
