“Despite the challenges over the past two years we have been making a number of transformative changes. We maintained momentum on our strategy to diversify and grow, which we believe will position us to emerge stronger as the aviation industry recovers,” said Tom Gentile, Spirit AeroSystems President and Chief Executive Officer. “Given the changes in our business, we decided we were at the right point to organize around three new business segments. Beginning with the 2021 fiscal year-end, Spirit will report results in the Commercial, Defense & Space and Aftermarket segments. In line with these reporting segments, we also announced a new organizational structure to focus on growth in these key markets.”

“Although we have experienced some schedule changes and execution challenges on certain programs, including the 787, we are maintaining our cash guidance for the year of $(200) to $(300) million.”

Revenue

Spirit’s third quarter of 2021 revenue was $980.0 million, up 22% from the same period of 2020, primarily due to higher production deliveries on the Boeing 737 and increased revenue from the recently acquired A220 wing and Bombardier programs. These increases were partially offset by the lower widebody production rates due to reduced international air traffic resulting from the impacts of COVID-19. Deliveries increased to 250 shipsets during the third quarter of 2021 compared to 206 shipsets in the same period of 2020, including Boeing 737 deliveries of 47 shipsets compared to 15 shipsets in the same period of the prior year.

Spirit’s backlog at the end of the third quarter of 2021 was approximately $33 billion, with work packages on all commercial platforms in the Boeing and Airbus backlog.

Earnings

Operating loss for the third quarter of 2021 was $156.6 million, as compared to operating loss of $176.9 million in the same period of 2020. The decreased loss was primarily driven by lower forward loss charges and lower excess capacity costs in the third quarter of 2021 compared to the third quarter of 2020. Third quarter 2021 earnings included $57.1 million of excess capacity costs and net forward loss charges of $70.4 million, primarily driven by schedule changes on the Airbus A350 program and reduced production demand on the Boeing 787 program as previously described in the second quarter 2021 Subsequent Event section. In comparison, during the third quarter of 2020, Spirit recorded excess capacity costs of $72.6 million and $128.4 million of net forward loss charges. Additionally, during the third quarter of 2020, Spirit recognized restructuring expenses of $19.5 million for cost-alignment and headcount reductions.

Other income for the third quarter 2021 was $94.8 million, compared to a net expense of $10.0 million for the same period in the prior year. The increase is primarily driven by a curtailment gain of $61 million recognized in the third quarter of 2021 resulting from the closure of the defined benefit plans acquired as part of the Bombardier Acquisition.

Third quarter EPS was $(1.09), compared to $(1.50) in the same period of 2020. Third quarter 2021 adjusted EPS* was $(1.13), which excluded the incremental deferred tax asset valuation allowance and the curtailment gain. During the same period of 2020, adjusted EPS* was $(1.34), which excluded the impacts of planned acquisitions, restructuring costs and the voluntary retirement program offered during 2020. (Table 1)

Cash

Cash provided by operations in the third quarter of 2021 improved to $211 million, compared to $(53) million in the same quarter last year, primarily due to the receipt of $228 million of tax refund as a result of carrybacks permitted by the CARES Act, $38 million resulting from the Aviation Manufacturing Jobs Protection Program as well as positive impacts of working capital. Free cash flow* in the third quarter of 2021 was $174 million as compared to $(72) million in the same period of 2020. The cash balance at the end of the third quarter of 2021 was $1.4 billion.

Fuselage Systems

Fuselage Systems segment revenue in the third quarter of 2021 increased 14 percent from the same period last year to $481.2 million, primarily due to increased production volumes from the Boeing 737 and recently acquired Bombardier programs, partially offset by lower production volumes on the Boeing 777 and 787 programs.

Appendix

In addition to reporting our financial information using U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), management believes that certain non-GAAP measures (which are indicated by * in this report) provide investors with important perspectives into the company’s ongoing business performance. The non-GAAP measures we use in this report are (i) adjusted diluted earnings per share and (ii) free cash flow, which are described further below. The company does not intend for the information to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP measures. Other companies may define and calculate the measures differently than we do, limiting the usefulness of the measures for comparison with other companies.

Adjusted Diluted (Loss) Earnings Per Share. To provide additional transparency, we have disclosed non-GAAP adjusted diluted (loss) earnings per share (Adjusted EPS). This metric excludes various items that are not considered to be directly related to our operating performance. Management uses Adjusted EPS as a measure of business performance and we believe this information is useful in providing period-to-period comparisons of our results. The most comparable GAAP measure is diluted earnings per share.

Free Cash Flow. Free Cash Flow is defined as GAAP cash from operating activities (generally referred to herein as “cash provided by (used in) operations”), less capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment. Management believes Free Cash Flow provides investors with an important perspective on the cash available for stockholders, debt repayments including capital leases, and acquisitions after making the capital investments required to support ongoing business operations and long term value creation. Free Cash Flow does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures as it excludes certain mandatory expenditures. The most comparable GAAP measure is cash provided by operating activities. Management uses Free Cash Flow as a measure to assess both business performance and overall liquidity.

The tables below provide reconciliations between the GAAP and non-GAAP measures.
