TRANSFORMING. FOCUSING. RISING. SPIRIT AEROSYSTEMS.
DETERMINATION S P I R I T OPPORTUNITY
Aviation changed when Spirit AeroSystems opened its doors. In an instant, aerospace OEMs worldwide gained access to an independent design-build partner one with the insight and experience to increase performance and value. Over the past eight years, Spirit has continued to boost its capabilities, ramp up production on the world s premier aircraft and lift aviation to ever-higher standards. T R A N S F O R M I N G
In 2005, Spirit AeroSystems embarked on a journey to form a new aerostructures company built on a 75-year legacy. The company began the transformation from a single-customer supplier into an independent, global industry partner with multiple customers and platforms. Today Spirit is one of the world s largest nonoem designers and manufacturers of aerostructures for commercial aircraft, generating $6 billion in annual revenue in 2013, and forecasting $6.5 to $6.7 billion in 2014. The company is recognized as a global leader with a relentless commitment to quality and delivery. Now, under new leadership, Spirit is writing the next chapter in the company s history transforming a leading design-build manufacturing operation into a great business. Transitioning. In early 2013, Larry A. Lawson took the helm as Spirit s new president and chief executive officer. The former executive vice president of Lockheed Martin Aeronautics, Mr. Lawson brings decades of aviation experience in engineering, business development and program management and he brings a vision for Spirit s future. Enhancing leadership. In a matter of months, Mr. Lawson added three senior industry executives to an already-strong leadership team. Heidi Wood stepped into the new role of vice president for strategy, mergers & acquisitions, and investor relations. Duane Hawkins joined as senior vice president of operations. And Sanjay Kapoor was named senior vice president and chief financial officer. All are industry leaders with proven experience and success. Spirit has attracted talent to other areas of the company as well, and is making strategic organizational changes to A V I A T I O N
improve performance. Placing key talent in positions that best suit their strengths. Recruiting new leaders with experience from across the industry. And continuing to drive competitive advantage through diversity. Larry Lawson President and Chief Executive Officer Spirit AeroSystems, Inc. Challenges exist, but the opportunity is great. And so is the determination of Spirit s people. For the latest news, follow Spirit on Twitter at twitter.com/spiritaero L E A D E R S H I P
DESIGN S P I R I T BUILD
As our transformation unfolds, we are focusing on our strengths, on our commitments, on what we do best. Above all, we are focusing on what differentiates us in the marketplace our ability to supply high-quality design-build aerostructures at a low cost. Larry Lawson, President and CEO F O C U S I N G
Focusing on strengths. In 2013, Spirit s leaders began looking deeper into the company s cost structure and refining its measurements to position Spirit for long-term success. Mr. Lawson directed a comprehensive strategic and financial review, making disciplined decisions driven by the data. Spirit announced its intent to seek a buyer for its business in Oklahoma and sold its interest in the Russian Joint Venture. These decisions demonstrate Spirit s commitment to focus on its strengths designing and building the best aerostructures in the world. These changes and others will help Spirit deliver on rate increases, consolidate resources, create efficiencies and meet its long-term goal of growing the business in both commercial and defense markets. Commercial programs. Spirit s long-life commercial programs, from the 737, 767, 777 and 787 to the A320, A380 and A350 XWB, are positioned to thrive in the current aerospace up-cycle. Rates on the 737, 787 and A320 programs continue to increase. Spirit s backlog is currently over $41 billion. Boeing and Airbus programs are expected to produce predictable growth in earnings and cash flow. Business and regional jets. Spirit continues to partner with market leaders Gulfstream, Mitsubishi and Bombardier on key business and regional jet programs. Spirit s leaders are focused on improving execution, reducing costs and making strategic decisions regarding these programs. Defense programs. The P-8A Poseidon, KC-46A Tanker and Sikorsky CH-53K F U T U R E
helicopter programs are progressing well. Building on its proven success in the defense industry, Spirit is strategically expanding into new markets with key partners. In 2013, the company announced a teaming agreement with Bell Helicopter on the V-280 Valor, in competition to design and build the next-generation Future Vertical Lift (FVL) tiltrotor for the US Army. These programs are expected to remain critical to the US military, regardless of policy changes or budget cuts. In fact, a sequestration environment may create profitable new opportunities for low-cost suppliers like Spirit. Looking ahead. Spirit s focus for the future is simple: engineering and manufacturing aerostructures at a low cost. These are the areas where Spirit has the strongest competitive advantage and potential for future growth. Spirit s capabilities, combined with the affordability of its products, are expected to generate future opportunities in both commercial and defense markets.

BETTER S P I R I T FASTER
Rising demand. Analysts expect demand for passenger travel to increase by as much as 25 percent over the next decade. This demand, along with the aircraft replacement cycle, presents Spirit with an unprecedented opportunity for growth. Spirit is seizing that opportunity by applying leading technology, innovation and the proven capabilities of its team. The company is positioned not only to maintain its standing as a leading tier-one supplier, but to build on that strength. Meeting challenges. Spirit s past successes are a tribute to the talent, experience and hard work of its employees. Everywhere Spirit operates, teams are rising to the challenge to meet ever-increasing production rates and get new programs off the ground. Spirit employees have shown tremendous dedication and flexibility during the many transitions of the past year, placing the company on a trajectory of success. Preparing to soar. It s important to reflect on how far Spirit has come in eight years. And yet, the journey ahead is long, R I S I N G and much remains to be done. It takes time to implement changes, and for those changes to generate results. Spirit is already partnering with the best customers on the best platforms. The company is building a reputation as a high-quality, low-cost design-build aerostructures supplier. In 2014, Spirit s top priorities are to focus on its strengths, manage costs efficiently and position the company for prosperous growth in the future for customers, for shareholders and for employees. Spirit is preparing to soar.
