Hexcel Corporation (NYSE: HXL) today reported first quarter 2026 results including net sales of $502 million and adjusted diluted EPS of $0.59 per share.
Chairman, CEO and President Tom Gentile said, “The Hexcel team delivered strong first quarter results on rising commercial aerospace build rates supported by the normalization of channel inventory. Our first quarter sales increased ten percent and earnings per share grew at a significantly higher rate, underscoring the benefit from significant operating leverage as we grow back into existing capacity. Our priorities remain centered on execution and operational discipline as we support the rate ramps of our customers.”
Mr. Gentile continued, “We remain confident in our growth outlook and we are reaffirming our full year 2026 guidance despite geopolitical uncertainty in the Middle East and lingering commercial aerospace supply chain challenges. We continue to actively monitor the markets and remain in close contact with our suppliers and customers. At present, we believe we are well positioned to mitigate a substantial portion of the near-term impact of higher oil and energy prices to our cost base. Higher oil prices in the short-term places an even greater emphasis on fuel efficiency in the aerospace industry, which further reinforces the value proposition of lightweight advanced composite material.”
Markets
Sales in the first quarter of 2026 were $501.5 million compared to $456.5 million in the first quarter of 2025.
Commercial Aerospace (66% of YTD Sales)
- Commercial Aerospace sales of $332.7 million increased 18.8% (19.0% in constant currency) for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025. Sales increased for each of the four major programs, including the Airbus A350 and A320 and the Boeing 787 and 737 MAX. Other Commercial Aerospace sales increased 15.6% for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025 with sales increasing for both regional jets and business jets.
Defense, Space & Other (34% of YTD Sales)
- Defense, Space & Other sales of $168.8 million decreased 4.3% (6.9% in constant currency) for the quarter as compared to the first quarter of 2025. The sales decrease reflected the September 30, 2025 divestment of the Austrian-based industrial business. Within Defense & Space, first quarter 2026 sales increased for European fighter aircraft and military helicopters, including both US and European programs. Space sales were lower year-over-year on softer launchers and rocket motors.
Consolidated Operations
Gross margin for the first quarter of 2026 was 26.9% compared to 22.4% in the prior year, benefiting from higher sales leverage. As a percentage of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2026 were 9.9% compared to 9.5% for the first quarter of 2025. R&D expenses as a percentage of sales for the first quarter of 2026 were 3.5% compared to 3.0% for the first quarter of 2025. Adjusted operating income in the first quarter of 2026 was $67.5 million or 13.5% of sales, compared to $45.3 million or 9.9% of sales in 2025. The impact of exchange rates on operating income as a percentage of sales was unfavorable by approximately 80 basis points in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025. Other operating expense for the first quarter of 2026 included restructuring expenses related to the expected shutdown of industrial-oriented manufacturing at the Leicester, UK facility and non-recurring professional fees.

- Net cash provided by operating activities in the first quarter of 2026 was $19.0 million, compared to a use of $28.5 million for the first quarter of 2025. Working capital was a cash use of $63.1 million in the first quarter of 2026 compared to a use of $97.7 million in the first quarter of 2025. Capital expenditures on a cash basis were $25.2 million for the first quarter of 2026 compared to $26.1 million for the first quarter of 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. |
