Wichita, Kan., Oct. 27, 2015 - Spirit AeroSystems Holdings, Inc. [NYSE: SPR] reported third quarter financial results driven by positive operating performance of mature programs.

“Preparing for production rate increases has been one of our top priorities this year. We are executing to plan on rate increases for the 737, A320, 787 and A350. We are managing the ramp up with great detail to address the full value chain and protect our gains in quality,” said President and Chief Executive Officer Larry Lawson. 
“We are confident about the long term outlook for our business and the health of our balance sheet,” Lawson added.
“With regard to capital deployment, in the second quarter we announced a share repurchase program of $350 million. In the third quarter, we repurchased 924,000 shares for $46 million,” Lawson concluded.
In the third quarter the company resolved customer and supplier matters that de-risked our exposure to certain historical claims. While the nature and terms of these resolutions are subject to confidentiality obligations, they collectively resulted in a one-time pretax ($26) million charge, or ($0.12) per share.
Spirit’s backlog remained strong at $46 billion at the end of the third quarter, as a result of continued strong commercial aerospace demand.
Free cash flow was a $139 million* source of cash for the third quarter of 2015, compared to a $75 million* source of cash in the third quarter of 2014, primarily due to an increase in deferred revenue payments and timing of accounts receivable partially offset by an increase in capital expenditures and cash advance repayments.

Financial Outlook and Risk to Future Financial Results
Revenue guidance for the full-year 2015 remains unchanged and is expected to be between $6.6 billion and $6.7 billion. Fully diluted earnings guidance per share is increased to be between $3.80 and $3.95 per share, which does not include the year-to-date impact or potential future adjustments to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance. Free cash flow guidance for 2015 remains unchanged and is expected to be between $700 million and $800 million*, which includes higher capital expenditures of $325 million to $375 million compared to 2014. The effective tax rate for 2015 is forecasted to be between 32.0 percent and 33.0 percent, including the expected benefit of the U.S. Research Tax Credit for 2015, and excluding any potential adjustment to the valuation allowance against U.S. net deferred tax assets. (Table 3)
Risks to our financial guidance are described more fully in the Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements in this release and in the “Risk Factors” section of our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains “forward-looking statements” that may involve many risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements reflect our current expectations or forecasts of future events. Forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “project,” “should,” “will,” or other similar words, or the negative thereof, unless the context requires otherwise. These statements reflect management’s current views with respect to future events and are subject to risks and uncertainties, both known and unknown. Our actual results may vary materially from those anticipated in forward-looking statements. We caution investors not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected in such forward-looking statements and that should be considered in evaluating our outlook include, but are not limited to, the following: 1) our ability to continue to grow our business and execute our growth strategy, including the timing, execution, and profitability of new and maturing programs; 2) our ability to perform our obligations and manage costs related to our new and maturing commercial, business aircraft and military development programs and the related recurring production; 3) margin pressures and the potential for additional forward losses on new and maturing programs; 4) our ability to accommodate, and the cost of accommodating, announced increases in the build rates of certain aircraft; 5) the effect on aircraft demand and build rates of changing customer preferences for business aircraft, including the effect of global economic conditions on the business aircraft market and expanding conflicts or political unrest in the Middle East or Asia; 6) customer cancellations or deferrals as a result of global economic uncertainty; 7) the effect of economic conditions in the industries and markets in which we operate in the U.S. and globally and any changes therein, including fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates; 8) the success and timely execution of key milestones such as receipt of necessary regulatory approvals and customer adherence to their announced schedules; 9) our ability to successfully negotiate future pricing under our supply agreements with Boeing, Airbus and our other customers; 10) our ability to enter into profitable supply arrangements with additional customers; 11) the ability of all parties to satisfy their performance requirements under existing supply contracts with Boeing and Airbus, our two major customers, and other customers and the risk of nonpayment by such customers; 12) any adverse impact on Boeing’s and Airbus’ production of aircraft resulting from cancellations, deferrals or reduced orders by their customers or from labor disputes or acts of terrorism; 13) any adverse impact on the demand for air travel or our operations from the outbreak of diseases or epidemic or pandemic outbreaks; 14) our ability to avoid or recover from cyber-based or other security attacks, information technology failures or other disruptions; 15) returns on pension plan assets and the impact of future discount rate changes on pension obligations; 16) our ability to borrow additional funds or refinance debt; 17) competition from commercial aerospace original equipment manufacturers and other aerostructures suppliers; 18) the effect of governmental laws, such as U.S. export control laws and U.S. and foreign anti-bribery laws such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the United Kingdom Bribery Act, and environmental laws and agency regulations, both in the U.S. and abroad; 19) any reduction in our credit ratings; 20) our dependence on our suppliers, as well as the cost and availability of raw materials and purchased components; 21) our ability to recruit and retain highly-skilled employees and our relationships with the unions representing many of our employees; 22) spending by the U.S. and other governments on defense; 23) the possibility that our cash flows and borrowing facilities may not be adequate for our additional capital needs or for payment of interest on and principal of our indebtedness; 24) our exposure under our existing senior secured revolving credit facility to higher interest payments should interest rates increase substantially; 25) the effectiveness of any interest rate hedging programs; 26) the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting; 27) the outcome or impact of ongoing or future litigation, claims and regulatory actions; and 28) exposure to potential product liability and warranty claims. These factors are not exhaustive and it is not possible for us to predict all factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected in our forward-looking statements. These factors speak only as of the date hereof, and new factors may emerge or changes to the foregoing factors may occur that could impact our business. As with any projection or forecast, these statements are inherently susceptible to uncertainty and changes in circumstances. Except to the extent required by law, we undertake no obligation to, and expressly disclaim any obligation to, publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Additional information concerning these and other factors can be found in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.
