Hexcel Corporation (NYSE:HXL) today reported third quarter 2025 results including net sales of $456 million and adjusted diluted EPS of $0.37 per share.

Chairman, CEO and President Tom Gentile said, "Hexcel's third quarter sales and adjusted EPS were in line with expectations as we experienced seasonally slower third quarter sales combined with the expected commercial aerospace destocking, particularly with the Airbus A350. As we consider tariffs, inflation and the fourth quarter 2025 impact of some lingering destocking, we expect to be at the bottom end of our 2025 sales guidance and we have reduced our EPS guidance. Looking forward to 2026, we are seeing strong orders from the commercial aerospace OEMs to support the production rate increases they are forecasting for their key programs. With the supply chain stabilizing, we are increasingly confident in the outlook for commercial aerospace original equipment build rates. Once Airbus and Boeing hit their publicly announced peak build rates, Hexcel expects to benefit with an additional $500 million in incremental annual revenue from existing contracts. These increasing sales in 2026 and beyond will drive higher capacity utilization, unlocking the volume leverage that will fuel future margin expansion. With the incremental revenue Hexcel is expected to generate more than $1 billion in free cash flow over the next four years."

Mr. Gentile continued, "Given this increasing confidence in original equipment build rates and Hexcel's strong position supplying lightweight carbon fiber composite material used in every program, we believe now is an attractive time to repurchase even more Hexcel stock. The Board of Directors has authorized an additional $600 million for repurchases and Hexcel has entered into a $350 million accelerated share repurchase as part of that authorization. This action reflects our strong confidence in the free cash flow generation profile of the business. We're putting some of that future cash flow to work now for the benefit of our stockholders."

Markets

Sales in the third quarter of 2025 were $456.2 million compared to $456.5 million in the third quarter of 2024.

Commercial Aerospace

Commercial Aerospace sales of $274.2 million for the third quarter of 2025 decreased 7.3% (7.3% in constant currency) compared to the third quarter of 2024. The sales decrease was a result of inventory destocking, primarily on the Airbus A350 but also the Boeing 787. Other Commercial Aerospace increased 9.3% for the third quarter of 2025 compared to the third quarter of 2024 on strength in regional jets.

Defense, Space & Other

Defense, Space & Other sales of $182.0 million in the third quarter of 2025 increased 13.3% (11.7% in constant currency) for the quarter as compared to the third quarter of 2024. Growth was broad-based including fighters, rotorcraft and space.

Consolidated Operations

Gross margin for the third quarter of 2025 was 21.9% compared to 23.3% in the third quarter of 2024 as inventory reduction actions and sales mix led to unfavorable cost leverage. As a percentage of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter of 2025 was 9.0% compared to 8.7% for the third quarter of 2024. R&T expenses as a percentage of sales was 3.1% for the third quarter of 2025 compared to 3.0% for the third quarter of 2024. Adjusted operating income in the third quarter of 2025 was $44.8 million or 9.8% of sales, compared to $52.9 million, or 11.6% of sales in 2024. Other operating expense for the third quarter of 2025 primarily reflected charges for the divestiture of the Neumarkt, Austria plant and the previously announced closure of the Belgium facility. The impact of exchange rates on operating income as a percent of sales was unfavorable by approximately 10 basis points in the third quarter of 2025 compared to the third quarter of 2024.

Year-to-Date 2025 Results

Commercial Aerospace sales of $847.4 million decreased 7.5% (7.6% in constant currency) for the first nine months of 2025 compared to the first nine months of 2024. The sales decrease was primarily a result of lower sales to the A350, 787, and 737 MAX programs. Other Commercial Aerospace increased 7.1% for the first nine months of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 from higher regional jet sales.

Defense, Space & Other (40% of YTD sales)

Defense, Space & Other sales of $555.2 million increased 8.2% (7.2% in constant currency) for the first nine months of 2025 as compared to the first nine months of 2024. Strength in fighter programs and space programs globally led the growth.

Cash and other

Net cash provided by operating activities in the first nine months of 2025 was $105.0 million, compared to $127.3 million for the first nine months of 2024. Working capital was a cash use of $63.8 million for the first nine months of 2025 and a use of $93.1 million for the comparable period in 2024. Capital expenditures on a cash basis were $55.1 million for the first nine months of 2025 compared to $68.4 million for the same period in 2024.

The Company has entered into a $350 million accelerated share repurchase (ASR) program, as part of an additional $600 million share repurchase authorization approved in October 2025. The aggregate remaining authorization under the share repurchase program after the execution of the ASR will be approximately $384 million.

As announced today, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.17 per share payable to stockholders of record as of November 3, 2025, with a payment date of November 10, 2025.

NOTE: Management believes that adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted net income per share and free cash flow, which are non-GAAP measures, are meaningful to investors because they provide a view of Hexcel with respect to the underlying operating results excluding special items. Special items represent significant charges or credits that are important to an understanding of Hexcel's overall operating results in the periods presented. Non-GAAP measurements are not recognized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance.
