Spirit AeroSystems Hldgs

Spirit AeroSystems manufactures aerostructures, particularly fuselages, cockpits, wing sections, engine pylons, and nacelles for commercial and military aircraft. The company was spun out of Boeing in 2005, and the firm is the largest independent supplier of aerostructures for commercial aircraft. Boeing and Airbus are the firm's primary customers—Boeing represented roughly 60% and Airbus roughly 20% of revenue in recent years. The company is highly exposed to Boeing's beleaguered 737 program, which accounts for nearly half the company's revenue.

The U.S. Justice Department's Antitrust Division and the Department of Transportation announced on Thursday they have opened a broad public inquiry into the state of competition in air travel on topics including previous airline mergers, aircraft manufacturing, airline ticket sales, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/09/40745931/delta-southwest-and-other-airlines-in-hot-waters-with-us-transportation-department-for-unfair-reward">pricing and rewards practices</a>.
The Details: The agencies <a href="https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/justice-department-and-department-transportation-launch-broad-public-inquiry-state">have issued</a> a Request for Information (RFI) and seek the public's input on anticompetitive conduct, consolidation and issues affecting the availability and affordability of air travel options.&nbsp;
"Competition in air travel is a vehicle for better quality, better fares and better choices for Americans," said Assistant Attorney General Jonathan Kanter of the Justice Department's Antitrust Division.
"With this inquiry, we hope to learn more from the businesses and travelers at the center of this essential industry. Their feedback will ensure the Justice Department can continue to build on its historic efforts to protect competition in air travel," Kanter added.&nbsp;

The U.S. Travel Association reacted to the DOJ's public inquiry into competition in air travel, which it sees as politically motivated.&nbsp;
"Today's announcement by the Departments of Transportation and Justice that they will launch ‘broad inquiries' into airline business practices is another in a long line of disappointing political stunts," the U.S. Travel Association said <a href="https://www.ustravel.org/press/us-travel-reacts-doj-dot-inquiry-air-travel-competition">in a statement</a>.
DOJ Cracks Down: Under the Biden administration, the DOJ has cracked down on industry consolidation and mergers and successfully blocked <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37455281/jetblue-spirit-airlines-shares-are-moving-monday-whats-going-on">the merger</a> of JetBlue Airways Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JBLU#NASDAQ">JBLU</a>) and Spirit Airlines, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SAVE#NASDAQ">SAVE</a>) earlier this year.  
Spirit Airlines continues to face financial trouble and a potential bankruptcy after the deal with JetBlue fell through. Earlier this week, it was reported the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/24/10/41496171/whats-going-on-with-spirit-airlines-stock-wednesday"> airline had resumed</a> preliminary merger discussions with Frontier Group Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ULCC#NASDAQ">ULCC</a>). The potential merger of the two airlines would likely coincide with Spirit's restructuring of its debt and other liabilities in bankruptcy and could be affected by actions resulting from the DOJ's latest inquiry. 
Last month, the DOT launched an inquiry into whether the loyalty programs of the four largest U.S. airlines have engaged in unfair, deceptive or noncompetitive practices. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg sent a letter to American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DAL#NYSE">DAL</a>), United Airlines and Southwest Airlines Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LUV#NYSE">LUV</a>) requesting records and reports related to the airlines&#8217; loyalty programs, practices and policies.
Federal agencies did allow a merger between Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. and Alaska Air Group, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALK#NYSE">ALK</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/08/40455513/alaska-airlines-hawaiian-airlines-1-9b-merger-gets-doj-green-light-awaits-transportation-department">to be completed</a> in September. However, the DOT required the companies to agree to a set of consumer protections before giving the deal the green light. 
Why It Matters: Other companies in the airline industry may be affected by the joint inquiry announced Thursday, including planemaker Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) and parts supplier Spirit Aerosystems Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPR#NYSE">SPR</a>). Investors can monitor the effects on the industry through airline-focused ETFs, including the U.S. Global Jets ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JETS#NYSE">JETS</a>) and the iShares Trust iShares U.S. Transportation ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IYT#BATS">IYT</a>).

</ul>
<a href="https://www.cnbc.com/quotes/SPR/">Spirit AeroSystems</a> is weighing furloughs or layoffs of hundreds more employees if the <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/quotes/BA/">Boeing</a> machinists' strike stretches beyond Nov. 25, a company spokesman told CNBC on Thursday.
Boeing's machinists, whose strike is about to enter its sixth week, <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/10/24/boeing-machinists-new-labor-contract-strike.html">voted 64% against a newly proposed labor contract</a> on Wednesday, extending the work stoppage that has halted production of most of Boeing's aircraft, which is centered in the Seattle area.
&nbsp;
Spirit, which makes fuselages for Boeing's best-selling 737 Max as well as other major parts, had already been preparing to temporarily furlough about 700 workers in its Wichita, Kansas, facilities. Those 21-day furloughs could begin next week.
Further reductions would be in addition to those furloughs, but no decision has been made, said Spirit spokesman Joe Buccino.
Spirit's consideration of additional furloughs demonstrates how the lengthy strike is weighing on an already-fragile aerospace supply chain. Boeing suppliers have largely hesitated to cut staff in part because they had spent years rebuilding their workforces in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic. Airbus is also facing similar supply chain pressure.
More than 32,000 Boeing machinists in the Puget Sound area, Oregon and other locations <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/09/21/boeing-strike-machinists-prepare-for-lengthy-stoppage.html">walked off the job</a> on Sept. 13 after turning down an earlier tentative agreement.
Boeing is in the process of acquiring Spirit, a deal it expects to close next year. Spirit has been burning through cash and, on Wednesday, reported a third-quarter net loss of $477 million, more than double a year earlier.
Boeing's new CEO Kelly Ortberg has said <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/10/24/boeing-machinists-new-labor-contract-strike.html">getting a deal with its Seattle-area machinists</a> and ending the strike is a top priority, and the workers' union has said it is eager to get back to the negotiating table.

Boeing CFO Says Expect To Burn Cash In Q4 And In 2025

As the Boeing Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) strike drags on, Spirit Aerosystems Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPR#NYSE">SPR</a>) faces tough choices ahead,<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/10/n41402821/spirit-aerosystems-announces-furloughs" rel="noreferrer noopener"> including the looming threat of layoffs and extended furloughs.</a>
On Friday, Spirit Aerosystems announced employee furloughs in response to the ongoing strike by Boeing workers represented by the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, which began on September 13.
Effective October 28, Spirit will implement a 21-day furlough for approximately 700 employees involved in the 767 and 777 programs. These furloughs are part of a broader cost-saving strategy that includes a hiring freeze and restrictions on travel and overtime.
The company has established a considerable inventory buffer for the 767 and 777 programs but lacks the capacity for additional storage.
If the strike persists beyond November, financial pressures will necessitate further cost-saving measures, which may include layoffs and additional furloughs.

&#8220;This difficult step was necessary given our limited storage capacity for 767 and 777 units,&#8221; said&nbsp;Pat Shanahan, CEO of Spirit AeroSystems. &#8220;We recognize the impact this has on our valued teammates and their families, and we are committed to supporting them through this period.&#8221;
Despite these difficulties, Spirit is committed to upholding the highest quality and safety standards and will continue to fulfill its obligations to customers, regulators, and the aerospace industry.

Spirit AeroSystems Plans Employee Furloughs Amid Ongoing Boeing Strike, Faces Layoff Risk

Spirit Aerosystems To Introduce 21-Day Furloughs For 700 Workers On 767 And 777 Programs Starting Oct 28 Due To Boeing Strike, Co. To Enact Layoffs And Additional Furloughs If Boeing Strike Continues Beyond November

U.S. stock futures are headed lower on Monday after the jobs data-induced strength seen in the final session of last week. The mood has been rendered cautious as traders await a few key first-tier economic data and the minutes of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/09/40926026/federal-reserve-delivers-bold-0-5-rate-cut-signals-further-easing-ahead">Federal Reserve&#8217;s September rate-setting meeting.</a>
The imminent third-quarter reporting season could force traders to stay on the sidelines as corporate profit growth has been a major driving factor for the market amid economic uncertainties. JP Morgan Chase &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>) kickstarts the big bank reporting season this Friday.
The Middle East tensions that have sent oil on the boil could also be a spot a bother for traders even as they look ahead to soft-landing, facilitated by the Fed&#8217;s rate cuts.

In premarket trading on Monday,&nbsp;the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) slipped 0.57% to $569.72 and the&nbsp;Invesco QQQ ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) moved 0.69% lower to $483.97, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/lxquj26b2sag" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro data</a>.
Cues From Last Week:
U.S. stocks kept the winning streak going, as the major indices rose for a fourth straight week but the gains were much more modest and came amid volatility. The 30-stock Dow Jones Industrial Average finished at a fresh record. Small-cap stocks, however, posted a moderate decline for the week.
Stocks started the week higher amid caution but pulled back on Tuesday, dragged by geopolitical tensions, worries concerning the dockworkers&#8217; strike and weak manufacturing data. The major averages reversed course on Wednesday, despite ongoing headwinds, but retreated on Thursday as traders processed a mixed set of economic data and remained cautious amid Middle East tensions and the port strike.
Stronger-than-expected non-farm payroll gains, although generating some sell-off in early trading, lifted the averages higher thereafter, helping them to recoup all their losses for the week.

Insights From Analysts:
The market could be stuck in the recent trading range until the November election, said Ivan Martchev, investment strategist at Navellier &amp; Associates. The strategist said the same type of trading seen in July, when marginal new highs were met with selling into strength, most notably in the tech sector, is repeating now. There has been rotation into value stocks but the pace of this rotation has been slow in the recent week, he said.
The strategist blamed the situation in the Middle East for the profit-taking. That said, a large downside is unlikely, he said.
&#8220;But it does suggest one shouldn't look for the market to run higher or make anything more than marginal new highs before the election in early November,&#8221;&nbsp;Martchev said.
&#8220;We could be in for a continuation of the trading range that started in the middle of July.&#8221;
Carson Group Chief Investment Strategist Ryan Detrick also raised a red flag. The S&amp;P 500 Index rose 34.4% year-over-year in September this year, and six times in the past, the index had gained over 30% in September versus the year ago, the strategist said. Only once out of the six times, did the index post gains for October and the average return for the fourth quarter was also below-average, he added.

At the meeting, the central bank began its policy pivot and reduced the Fed funds rate by an aggressive 50 basis points.
A slew of Fed speeches strewn through the week could also create ripples in the market.

An Alaska Air Group, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALK#NYSE">ALK</a>) flight headed for Oakland, California, from Seattle was forced<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/08/40571260/boeing-sees-strong-demand-for-planes-in-china-expects-fleet-to-double-by-2043"> to turn around </a>Sunday afternoon after the aircraft — made by The Boeing Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) — reportedly experienced engine trouble.
What Happened: The Boeing 737-700 airplane left Seattle-Tacoma International Airport at 12:24 Pacific Day Light Time for Alaska Airlines Flight 1240 but flew back to the airport in just over an hour due to the #1 engine on the plane&#8217;s left side shutting down, Fox Business News <a href="https://www.foxbusiness.com/economy/alaska-airlines-boeing-flight-returns-airport-following-engine-issue">reported</a>.
&nbsp;&#8220;We worked to take care of our guests and accommodate their travel to Oakland yesterday afternoon, and we apologize for the inconvenience,&#8221; Alaska Airlines statement read.
Boeing did not immediately respond to Benzinga&#8217;s request for further comment.

Spirit AeroSystems Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPR#NYSE">SPR</a>) shares are trading lower premarket Tuesday after the company&#8217;s CEO, Patrick Shanahan, stated that they will receive a $28.5 million payout following the company&#8217;s<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/07/39567358/boeing-to-acquire-spirit-aerosystems-for-4-7b-after-months-of-negotiations" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> merger with </a><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/07/39567358/boeing-to-acquire-spirit-aerosystems-for-4-7b-after-months-of-negotiations" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Boeing Company</a><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/07/39567358/boeing-to-acquire-spirit-aerosystems-for-4-7b-after-months-of-negotiations" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>)</a>.
The package includes a $2.3 million cash payment, $26.1 million in restricted stock units, and $45,000 in perks and benefits, as part of a &#8220;golden parachute&#8221; arrangement, reported Reuters.
Such payments are common in corporate America, designed to incentivize management to proceed with a sale, even at the cost of their own jobs.
Shanahan, a former Boeing executive, is a top candidate for Boeing&#8217;s CEO position, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40282460/boeings-new-ceo-kelly-ortberg-shifts-base-to-seattle-amid-airplane-makers-safety-crisis">currently held by Kelly Ortberg</a>.

</ul>

What's Going On With Spirit AeroSystems Shares Premarket Tuesday?

The newly appointed CEO of Boeing (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>), Kelly Ortberg, has decided to move to Seattle, the company&#8217;s original home, in a bid to address the ongoing safety crisis.
What Happened: Ortberg&#8217;s relocation to Puget Sound, Washington, from Boeing&#8217;s corporate headquarters in Washington D.C., follows criticism that the company had lost touch with its manufacturing roots. This criticism was triggered by an incident in January when a door plug on a 737 MAX jet fell off mid-flight due to missing bolts, Reuters reported on Friday.
On his first day, Ortberg, the former chief of aerospace firm Rockwell Collins, spent time at the Renton factory where the 737 MAX jet is manufactured. He underscored the importance of getting &#8220;closer to the production lines and development programs across the company,&#8221; as he stated in a letter to employees.
Ortberg&#8217;s challenges include ramping up the production of MAX jets from about 25 to 38 planes a month by year-end, negotiating a labor deal to avert a potential strike, and addressing supply-chain issues that have delayed deliveries. Airline industry executives have urged Ortberg to prioritize on-time plane deliveries.
The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) has criticized Boeing for disregarding repeated warnings about unauthorized production. NTSB Chair Jennifer Homendy said a probe into the flight would likely be completed by early next year.

We Need To Make It More Affordable&#8217;</a>
Ortberg plans to visit employees at Boeing&#8217;s key supplier, Spirit AeroSystems (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPR#NYSE">SPR</a>), in Wichita, Kansas, next week. Boeing has agreed to buy back the financially struggling Spirit for $4.7 billion in stock.
In a message to employees, Ortberg emphasized that &#8220;restoring trust starts with meeting our commitments,&#8221; whether in building safe commercial aircraft or delivering defense and space products.
Why It Matters: Ortberg&#8217;s appointment as CEO came after Boeing reported a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/07/40066164/boeings-q2-earnings-huge-revenue-decline-lower-deliveries-names-former-aerospace-industries-associa">15% year-over-year </a>decline in second quarter revenue to $16.866 billion, missing the consensus of $17.23 billion. The move is seen as a step towards addressing the safety issues that have plagued the company.
Boeing and Spirit AeroSystems executives testified at a hearing regarding the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/08/40168743/boeing-poised-for-free-cash-flow-surge-post-2024-optimism-fueled-by-production-and-"> in-flight blowout </a>on a Boeing 737-9 MAX in January. This incident led to a series of repercussions for Boeing, including a temporary grounding of the MAX 9, a halt on production expansion by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), a criminal investigation, and the departure of several key executives.
In response to the incident, Boeing announced plans to<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/08/40212583/boeing-says-it-has-a-design-change-that-will-prevent-plane-doors-from-flying-out-mid-air-like-wh"> implement design changes</a> aimed at preventing future mid-air cabin panel blowouts.
Price Action: Boeing was trading 0.25% higher at $169.30 during Friday pre-market&nbsp;after closing at $168.87 on Thursday, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Boeing's New CEO Kelly Ortberg Shifts Base To Seattle Amid Airplane-Maker's Safety Crisis

The Boeing Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) shares are trading lower premarket today. On Wednesday, the head of the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) stated that the mid-air emergency involving Alaska Air Group, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALK#NYSE">ALK</a>) Boeing 737 MAX 9 was entirely avoidable, as Boeing should have addressed unauthorized production work earlier.
NTSB Chair Jennifer Homendy told reporters, &#8220;There have been numerous, numerous Boeing audits, FAA audits, compliance reviews, compliance actions plans, noting a history of an unauthorized work, unauthorized removals,&#8221;, reported Reuters.
According to the NTSB, Boeing failed to document the removal and re-installation of the 737 MAX 9 door plug, a metal cover for an unused emergency exit, and does not know which employees were involved. The plug was delivered to Alaska Airlines missing four key bolts.
