FORUM MARKETS Inc 8-K

What Happened

• Forum Markets, Incorporated announced that on July 13, 2026 its newly formed wholly‑owned subsidiary, Eurus Aerospace Token I LLC, purchased one CFM56-7B22 aircraft engine from Aero Engine Solutions, Inc. for $11.65 million in cash. The engine, together with associated parts and records, was concurrently placed on lease with a major airline. Forum filed the related Engine Sale and Purchase Agreement and disclosed the transaction in a press release on July 16, 2026.

Key Details

• Purchase date and price: July 13, 2026; $11.65 million, payable in cash.
• Buyer and structure: Eurus Aerospace Token I LLC — a newly formed wholly‑owned subsidiary of Forum Markets.
• Lease and servicing: Engine immediately leased to a major airline; Aero Engine Solutions will serve as servicer under a Servicing Agreement Supplement and will manage the engine for a servicing fee.
• Post‑lease purchase options: Agreement gives the buyer the right (but not the obligation) to require the servicer (or its affiliate) to buy the engine after lease expiration/termination at an option price, and gives the servicer the reciprocal right to require purchase from the buyer, subject to engine condition.

Why It Matters

• The transaction represents a cash asset acquisition and an immediate revenue‑generating lease for Forum via its subsidiary, potentially affecting asset base and lease revenue recognition. The servicing arrangement shifts operational management to Aero Engine Solutions while preserving post‑lease sale options that could influence future cash flows or asset disposition. Investors should note the cash outlay ($11.65M), the use of a newly formed subsidiary for the asset, and the servicer purchase/sale options when assessing Forum’s asset strategy and near‑term financial impacts.
