Quarter Highlights
- Net sales of $905 million increased 6% compared to the prior
year's quarter, with increases in our aerospace and defense
businesses, while Industrial was slightly down.
- Operating margin of 11.6% increased 170 basis points, driven by
improved performance in Space and Defense, Commercial Aircraft and
Military Aircraft, while Industrial declined 130 basis points.
- Adjusted operating margin of 12.3% increased 210 basis points,
reflecting improved business performance across all segments.
- Diluted earnings per share of $1.74 increased 32% due to higher
operating profit, partially offset by restructuring charges and a
higher tax rate.
- Adjusted diluted earnings per share of $1.91 increased 39%,
driven by operating margin expansion and incremental profit from
higher sales.
- Free cash flow improved by $17 million as compared to last
year.
Quarter Results
Sales in the third quarter of 2024 increased compared to the
third quarter of 2023, with notable growth in Military Aircraft,
Space and Defense and Commercial Aircraft. Military Aircraft sales
increased 18% to $207 million due to the ramp of the FLRAA program
and other OEM production programs. Space and Defense sales
increased 7% to $258 million driven by strong U.S. and European
defense demand. Commercial Aircraft sales increased 6% to $189
million due to the increased production in our widebody business.
Industrial segment sales decreased 1% to $250 million due to a
slowdown in orders for industrial automation applications,
partially offset by higher product demand in other markets.
Operating margin increased 170 basis points to 11.6% in the
third quarter of 2024 compared to the third quarter of 2023. Space
and Defense operating margin increased 490 basis points to 12.6%
due to improved performance on space vehicle development programs.
Commercial Aircraft operating margin increased 190 basis points to
12.9%, driven by higher sales volume and pricing initiatives, as
well as mix. Military Aircraft operating margin increased 130 basis
points to 11.6%, driven by cost absorption on the FLRAA program.
Industrial operating margin decreased 130 basis points to 9.8%,
impacted by higher restructuring and inventory write-down
charges.
Adjusted operating margin in the third quarter of 2024 increased
210 basis points to 12.3% compared to the third quarter of 2023.
The only segment with significant adjustments was Industrial, whose
adjusted operating margin increased as the benefits of pricing more
than offset an unfavorable sales mix and planned product
transfers.
Twelve-month backlog remains robust, increasing 7% to $2.5
billion, driven by strong product demand across the aerospace and
defense businesses.
Free cash flow in the third quarter was a use of cash of $2
million, an improvement of $17 million year-over-year, driven by
higher net cash from operating activities and lower capital
expenditures.
2024 Financial Guidance
"Fiscal year 2024 is measuring up to be a great step towards
achieving our long-term financial targets," said Jennifer Walter,
CFO. "This year, our sales will grow by 8%, our adjusted operating
margin will expand by 150 basis points and our adjusted earnings
per share will increase by 20%."

Although it is not possible to create a comprehensive list of
all factors that may cause our actual results to differ from the

The diluted net earnings per share
associated with the adjustments in the table above may not
reconcile when totaled due to rounding.
Results shown above have been adjusted to exclude impacts
associated with restructuring and other charges related to
continued portfolio shaping activities, asset impairments and other
charges due to program termination and the devaluation of an
investment, as well as impacts from the sale of buildings. While
management believes that these adjusted financial measures may be
useful in evaluating the financial condition and results of
operations of the Company, this information should be considered
supplemental and is not a substitute for financial information
prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided (used) by
operating activities less purchase of property, plant and
equipment. Free cash flow is not a measure determined in accordance
with GAAP and may not be comparable with the measures as used by
other companies. However, management believes this adjusted
financial measure may be useful in evaluating the liquidity,
financial condition and results of operations of the Company. This
information should be considered supplemental and is not a
substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with
GAAP.
