WICHITA, Kan., April 26 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- Spirit
AeroSystems Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: SPR) reported significant
increases in its first quarter financial results and
reaffirmed its 2007 financial guidance, reflecting strong
commercial aerospace markets globally and continued
execution of the company's strategy.
Spirit's first quarter net income rose over 200 percent
to $70 million from $23 million a year ago, and fully
diluted earnings per share rose 163 percent to $0.50 per
share from $0.19 per share last year. Revenue for the
quarter increased 42 percent to $954 million from $671
million, and the company's operating margins rose to 10.9
percent from 7.5 percent last year. First quarter 2007
results include Spirit Europe which was acquired on April
1, 2006. Spirit Europe's revenue for the first quarter 2007
was
$127 million.
"Solid overall performance combined with increased
production volume and productivity improvements drove this
quarter's results," said President and Chief Executive
Officer Jeff Turner. "Revenues increased, operating
margins improved and we continue to make good progress on
the 787 program," Turner added. "We are pleased
to make progress in our aftermarket business and to be
selected to Boeing's Global Tanker Team that is offering
the KC-767 Advanced Tanker to the United States Air Force.
Boeing's selection of Pratt & Whitney 4062 engines for
the program and our sole source supplier agreement with
Boeing for thrust reversers on Pratt & Whitney's
engines adds potential growth to our propulsion business
and provides potential increased demand for engine pylons
and forward fuselages for the KC-767 program. Looking
forward, we expect to deliver financial performance that
reflects the strength of our design and manufacturing
capabilities, the talent of our people, and the application
of industry leading technology."
The company continued to build momentum in its
aftermarket business during the month of April with an
initial agreement to provide overhaul services and rotables
leasing to Cathay Pacific on up to 10 sets of Trent 800
Thrust Reversers. Additionally, Spirit was designated by
Boeing as a provider of nacelle component repair and
overhaul services for Boeing 777 and Next Generation 737
airplanes.
Spirit's backlog during the quarter increased from
$19.2 billion to $19.9 billion, as combined net orders for
323 aircraft at Boeing and Airbus out paced their combined
deliveries of 221 aircraft. Spirit's backlog is calculated
based on contractual prices for products and expected
delivery volumes from the published firm order backlogs of
both Boeing and Airbus.
During the first quarter, Spirit updated its contract
profitability estimates resulting in a favorable change in
contract estimates of $6 million. Almost all of the
estimate changes are reflected in the Wing Systems segment
and were driven by favorable cost trends within the current
contract blocks. Because Spirit recognizes changes in
contract estimates utilizing the cumulative catch up method
of accounting under Statement of Position 81-1,
approximately $1 million of the favorable adjustment
relates to revenues recognized in 2005, and approximately
$5 million relates to revenues recognized in 2006. Largely
offsetting the favorable cumulative catch up adjustment in
the quarter were certain adjustments at Spirit Europe,
including a contract loss provision also recorded in the
Wing Systems segment. First quarter 2006 results included a
$34 million favorable cumulative catch up adjustment.
Cash flow from operations for the first quarter 2007
was $50 million reflecting planned increases in working
capital primarily for the 787 as the airplane enters
production. Cash flow from operations declined 44 percent
from the prior year period due to the $71 million reduction
in customer advances in the first quarter of 2007.
Investments in capital expenditures totaled $88 million in
the quarter (Table 2). Over half of the investment in
property, plant and equipment supported the start-up of the
787 program.
Cash balances at the end of the quarter were $157
million, down from year end 2006 levels reflecting planned
investment in Spirit's core businesses. Debt balances at
the end of the first quarter were $615 million, down
slightly from the year end level.

OUTLOOK
The company's financial guidance for 2007 is
reaffirmed. The company is forecasting solid growth in 2007
that reflects strong operating performance across business
segments and higher commercial airplane deliveries.
Spirit's 2007 revenue is expected to be between $4.0
billion and
$4.1 billion, approximately 25 percent higher than 2006, as
increased market demand for large commercial transport
aircraft from Boeing and Airbus drives additional shipset
deliveries. This revenue projection is based on previously
issued 2007 Boeing and Airbus delivery guidance of 440-445
and 440-450 aircraft, respectively, and includes the
initial deliveries to Boeing of Spirit products on the 787
program as well as a full year of revenue from Spirit
Europe (Table 3).

Spirit's operating margins are expected to be between
9.8 percent and
10.5 percent as benefits from higher volumes, cost
reduction and productivity initiatives, as well as lower
R&D and stock compensation expenses expand operating
margins vs. 2006 actual results. Spirit's 2007 fully
diluted EPS guidance is between $1.80 and $1.90 per share.
Cash flow from operations is expected to be +/- $280
million, which includes additional working capital spending
for the new 787 program. Fiscal 2007 capital expenditures
are expected to be +/- $300 million. Approximately 50
percent of the capital expenditures will be utilized to
complete the installation of production capacity for the
new 787 program. Spirit anticipates approximately $45
million of customer reimbursement to partially offset these
capital expenditures.
Depreciation and amortization expenses are forecasted
to be between $120 and $125 million as new capital
equipment is placed into service.

Fuselage Systems segment revenue for the first quarter
was $445 million, up 26 percent over the same period last

by the IAM strike at Boeing which occurred in September of
2005. Fuselage Systems posted double-digit segment
operating margins of 18.6 percent for the first quarter
2007, up from 17.0 percent in the same period of 2006 as

9.6 percent for the first quarter 2007, up from 6.0 percent
in the same period of 2006 as R&D expense on the 787
