Auriga Reiterates a 'Buy' on Spirit AeroSystems (SPR); Explosion in 2011 Aftermarket Deals

Auriga reiterates a 'Buy' on Spirit AeroSystems (NYSE: SPR) price target of $30.00.

Auriga analyst said, "Tuesday before the open, Spirit announced a multi-year spare parts agreement with Europe Airpost, which marks its fourth aftermarket agreement since the start of 2011. Although Spirit's aftermarket business is not widely discussed and represents a small portion of its revenue mix, we view it as an under recognized supplemental catalyst. More specifically, given Spirit's unique positioning on Boeing (NYSE: BA) platforms, coupled with its catalog of 14,000 parts and three global MRO facilities, we believe the company is well positioned to develop as a primary aerostructures spares supplier. While we do not view aftermarket as a primary top-line driver, we believe it could deliver upside to margins as the company adds incremental supply agreements."
