“The announced sale of our Product Support business will be transformative for our balance sheet and is on track for closure this quarter which will meaningfully accelerate our deleveraging progress,” said Dan Crowley, TRIUMPH’s chairman, president and chief executive officer.  “Following the divestiture, we are right sizing our cost structure to achieve our multi-year profit margin and cash flow targets.  By strengthening our balance sheet and focusing on our OEM component, spares and IP-based aftermarket business, TRIUMPH will further improve its capacity to win and profitably grow in the expanding markets we serve.”

TRIUMPH generated its seventh consecutive quarter of year over year organic sales growth benefiting from increased commercial OEM production rates.  TRIUMPH generated positive free cash flow in the quarter, although earnings and cash were lower than planned due to a finite set of industry-wide supply chain constraints which impacted deliveries in the quarter.  We expect a very strong fourth quarter that benefits from deferred deliveries, historical seasonality, improving mix and incremental price improvements as well as working capital investments we made in the first half of the year.”  

Mr. Crowley continued, “TRIUMPH accelerated new business capture with a year-to-date book to bill rate of 1.34, lifting our backlog 20% year over year to the highest level since March 2020.  Going forward, the new TRIUMPH will deliver top and bottom-line growth rates at or above the market as we benefit from a focus on OEM and related aftermarket product lines.”

Note> Aftermarket sales include both repair & overhaul services and spare parts sales.

Excluding impacts from divestitures and exited or sunsetting programs, organic Commercial OEM sales increased $30.7 million, or 27.5% primarily on production volumes on Boeing 737 and 787 programs.

Military OEM sales decreased from prior year as decreased sales on military rotorcraft were partially offset by increased volume on other military programs, including fixed wing platforms.

Aftermarket sales include both repair and overhaul services as well as the sales of spare parts. Commercial Aftermarket sales increased $4.2 million, or 13.8%, driven by the continued improvement in overall air travel metrics, favorably impacting both repair and overhaul services and spare part sales. The impacts from divestitures and exited or sunsetting programs on Commercial aftermarket sales was not significant.

Military aftermarket sales decreased primarily on reduced repair and overhaul sales on the UH-60 platform.
