Aimia reaches settlement deal with the Canada Revenue Agency, expects $27M refund
The company says it plans to use the money to help buy back shares and for general working capital purposes.
Aimia sold Aeroplan to Air Canada in January 2019, but agreed to indemnify the airline for pre-closing income tax liabilities and put $100 million into an escrow account.
In 2019, Aimia paid $32.9 million from the escrow account to the CRA and the provincial tax agency, Revenu Quebec, after a notice reassessment for the 2013 audit.
The balance of the escrow account was released to Aimia in July 2020.
Aimia says it will now seek the remaining $6 million from Revenu Quebec.

All amounts are stated in U.S. dollars. The Company recorded a net loss of $135 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to net income of $94 million in the prior year quarter.
