(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 $615 million, down slightly from the year end level. Table 2. Cash Flow and Liquidity 1st Quarter ($ in millions) 2007 2006(1) Cash Flow from Operations $50 $90 Purchases of Property, Plant & Equipment ($88) ($94) Liquidity March 29 December 31 2007 2006 Cash $157 $184 Current Portion of Long-term Debt plus Long-term Debt $615 $618 (1) Excludes Spirit Europe acquired on April 1, 2006 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). Table 3. Financial Outlook 2007 Guidance Revenues $4.0B - $4.1B Operating Income $400M - $420M Operating Income as a % of Revenues 9.8% - 10.5% Depreciation and Amortization $120M - $125M Earnings Per Share (Fully Diluted) $1.80 - $1.90 Effective Tax Rate ~34% Cash Flow from Operations* + / - $280M Capital Expenditures + / - $300M Customer Reimbursement of Capital Expenditures ~ $45M Research & Development Expense + / - $60M Average Fully Diluted Shares Outstanding 141M * Includes $40-$50 million of customer advances for capital expenditures 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.

Appendix Segment Results Fuselage Systems Fuselage Systems segment revenue for the first quarter was $445 million, up 26 percent over the same period last year as deliveries on the 737 and 777 programs increased.

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 R&D expense on the 787 program declined; higher production rates were realized; and 737 model-mixes shifted to longer aircraft types. Propulsion Systems Propulsion Systems segment revenue for the first quarter was $260 million, up 20 percent over the same period last year as deliveries increased in support of primary customer production volume. Propulsion Systems posted improved double-digit segment operating margins of 15.5 percent for the first quarter 2007, up from 13.8 percent in the same period of 2006 as R&D expense on the 787 program declined and higher production rates were realized.

Wing Systems posted segment operating margins of 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 program declined and favorable cost trends generated favorable changes in contract estimates that were largely offset by certain adjustments, including a loss provision at Spirit Europe, during the first quarter 2007.
