With just a few hours of trade left on Friday, the All Ordinaries Index (ASX: XAO) is up 0.7% for the week, with these three ASX All Ords shares racing ahead of those gains.

One is involved in aviation services. Another in financial services. And the third is focused on fast food. And they've gained anywhere from 18% to more than 29% since the closing bell rang last Friday.

Which outperforming companies am I talking about?

ASX All Ords shares smashing the benchmark this week

The first ASX All Ords share making investors very happy this week is Alliance Aviation Services Ltd (ASX: AQZ).

Shares in the aviation services company closed last Friday trading for $2.17. At the time of writing, shares are changing hands for $2.57 apiece. This sees the Alliance Aviation share price up 18.4% for the week.

A lot of those gains are coming in today, with shares up 14.2% in intraday trade.

Investors have been piling into the stock following this morning's announcement that the company has entered into a binding agreement to sell its Embraer E190-E1 inventory to United States-based AVIAN Inventory Management for US$32.5 million.

"This strategic partnership puts Alliance in an industry leading position to support its expanding E190 operations with increased efficiency, improved fleet reliability, and strengthened service delivery for its diverse customer base," Alliance managing director Scott McMillan said.

Which brings us to the second ASX All Ords share rocketing higher this week, Humm Group Ltd (ASX: HUM).

Shares in the financial services company closed last week, trading for 44 cents, and are currently changing hands for 56 cents apiece. This puts the Humm share price up an impressive 27.3% since last Friday's close.

Humm shares grabbed investor interest after the company reported that it had received a non-binding indicative acquisition offer from The Abercrombie Group Pty Ltd.

The indicative offer would see Abercrombie acquire all of Humm's shares for a cash price of 58 cents each, which is almost 32% above last week's closing price.

Leading the pack

The top-performing ASX All Ords share for the week making my list today is Collins Foods Ltd (ASX: CKF).

Shares in the KFC and Taco Bell restaurant operator closed last week at $7.22 and are currently trading for $9.32 each. That puts the Collins Foods share price up 29.1% over the week.

Most of those gains were delivered on Tuesday, when shares closed up 17.4% on the heels of the company's full-year FY 2025 results.

Highlights included a 2.1% year-on-year increase in revenue (from continuing operations), which reached a record of $1.52 billion.

Investors also reacted positively to the outlook for FY 2026, with Collins Foods forecasting underlying net profit after tax (NPAT) growth in the low to mid-teens for the 2026 financial year.
