Providence, Rhode Island – April 25, 2024 – Textron Inc. (NYSE: TXT) today reported first quarter 2024 net income of $1.03 per share, as compared to $0.92 per share in the first quarter of 2023. Adjusted net income, a non-GAAP measure that is defined and reconciled to GAAP in an attachment to this release, was $1.20 per share for the first quarter of 2024, compared to $1.05 per share in the first quarter of 2023.

“In the quarter, we saw profit growth across our Aviation, Bell, and Systems businesses,” said Textron Chairman and CEO Scott C. Donnelly. "At Aviation, we saw continued strong market demand which contributed to $177M in backlog growth. At Bell, we saw revenue growth driven by the FLRAA program."

Net cash used by operating activities of the manufacturing group for the first quarter was $30 million, compared to $153 million in cash provided last year. Manufacturing cash flow before pension contributions, a non-GAAP measure that is defined and reconciled to GAAP in an attachment to this release, reflected a use of cash of $81 million for the first quarter, compared to a cash inflow of $104 million last year.

In the quarter, Textron returned $317 million to shareholders through share repurchases.

Textron Aviation’s revenues were $1.2 billion, up $39 million from last year's first quarter, reflecting higher pricing of $48 million, partially offset by lower volume and mix of $9 million.

Textron Aviation delivered 36 jets in the quarter, up from 35 in the first quarter of 2023, and 20 commercial turboprops, down from 34 in last year's first quarter.

Segment profit was $143 million in the first quarter, up $18 million from a year ago, primarily reflecting a favorable impact from pricing, net of inflation, of $14 million.

Textron Aviation backlog at the end of the first quarter was $7.3 billion.

Bell revenues were $727 million, up $106 million from the first quarter of 2023, largely reflecting higher military volume of $95 million, primarily related to the FLRAA program, partially offset by lower volume on the V-22 and H-1 programs.

Bell delivered 18 commercial helicopters in the quarter, down from 22 in last year's first quarter.

Segment profit of $80 million was up $20 million from last year's first quarter, largely due to a favorable impact from performance of $30 million, which included $13 million of lower research and development costs.

Bell backlog at the end of the first quarter was $4.5 billion.

Revenues at Textron Systems were $306 million, flat with last year's first quarter.

Segment profit of $38 million was up $4 million, compared with the first quarter of 2023.

Textron Systems’ backlog at the end of the first quarter was $1.8 billion.

Industrial revenues were $892 million, down $40 million from last year's first quarter, largely due to lower volume and mix of $51 million, principally in the Specialized Vehicles product line, partially offset by higher pricing of $16 million in the segment.

Segment profit of $29 million was down $12 million from the first quarter of 2023, primarily due to lower volume and mix at Specialized Vehicles.

Textron eAviation segment revenues were $7 million and segment loss was $18 million in the first quarter of 2024, compared with a segment loss of $9 million in the first quarter of 2023, primarily related to higher research and development costs.

Finance

Finance segment revenues were $15 million, and profit was $18 million.

In the first quarter of 2024, we incurred $14 million in special charges under the 2023 restructuring plan, largely related to headcount reductions to improve the cost structures of the Textron Systems and Bell segments in light of the cancellation of the Shadow and FARA programs in the quarter. Textron expects to incur additional severance costs in the second quarter of 2024 in the range of $25 million to $30 million, largely related to headcount reductions in the Industrial segment. As a result, Textron has expanded its 2023 restructuring plan from the previously announced range of $115 million to $135 million in pre-tax special charges to a range of $165 million to $170 million.

(a)Segment profit, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share are non-GAAP financial measures as defined in "Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Outlook" attached to this release.

(a) Manufacturing cash flow before pension contributions is a non-GAAP financial measure as defined in "Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Outlook" attached to this release.

(Unaudited)

We supplement the reporting of our financial information determined under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) with certain non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain significant items that may not be indicative of, or are unrelated to, results from our ongoing business operations. We believe that these non-GAAP measures may be useful for period-over-period comparisons of underlying business trends and our ongoing business performance, however, they should be used in conjunction with GAAP measures. Our non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP measures, and other companies may define similarly named measures differently. We encourage investors to review our financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. We utilize the following definitions for the non-GAAP financial measures included in this release and have provided a reconciliation of the GAAP to non-GAAP amounts for each measure:

Segment profit is an important measure used by our chief operating decision maker for evaluating performance and for decision-making purposes. Segment profit for the manufacturing segments excludes the non-service components of pension and postretirement income, net; LIFO inventory provision; intangible asset amortization; interest expense, net for Manufacturing group; certain corporate expenses; gains/losses on major business dispositions; and special charges. The measurement for the Finance segment includes interest income and expense along with intercompany interest income and expense.

Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share exclude LIFO inventory provision, net of tax; intangible asset amortization, net of tax; special charges, net of tax; and gains/losses on major business dispositions, net of tax. LIFO inventory provision is excluded to improve comparability with other companies in our industry who have not elected to use the LIFO inventory costing method. Intangible asset amortization is excluded to improve comparability as the impact of such amortization can vary substantially from company to company depending upon the nature and extent of acquisitions and exclusion of this expense is consistent with the presentation of non-GAAP measures provided by other companies within our industry. Management believes that it is important for investors to understand that these intangible assets were recorded as part of purchase accounting and contribute to revenue generation. We consider items recorded in special charges, such as enterprise-wide restructuring, certain asset impairment charges, and acquisition-related restructuring, integration and transaction costs, to be of a non-recurring nature that is not indicative of ongoing operations.

Manufacturing cash flow before pension contributions adjusts net cash from operating activities (GAAP) for the following:

•Deducts capital expenditures and includes proceeds from insurance recoveries and the sale of property, plant and equipment to arrive at the net capital investment required to support ongoing manufacturing operations;

•Excludes dividends received from Textron Financial Corporation (TFC) and capital contributions to TFC provided under the Support Agreement and debt agreements as these cash flows are not representative of manufacturing operations;

•Adds back pension contributions as we consider our pension obligations to be debt-like liabilities. Additionally, these contributions can fluctuate significantly from period to period and we believe that they are not representative of cash used by our manufacturing operations during the period.

While we believe this measure provides a focus on cash generated from manufacturing operations, before pension contributions, and may be used as an additional relevant measure of liquidity, it does not necessarily provide the amount available for discretionary expenditures since we have certain non-discretionary obligations that are not deducted from the measure.
