Hawker Beechcraft Acquisition Company, LLC Reports 2010 Second Quarter Results
WICHITA, Kan. (Aug. 3, 2010) – Hawker Beechcraft Acquisition Company, LLC (HBAC) reported net sales for the three months ended June 27, 2010, of $639.3 million, a decrease of $177.0 million compared to the second quarter of 2009. The decrease was largely attributable to lower aircraft deliveries in the Company’s Business and General Aviation (“B&GA”) segment as a result of depressed demand across the general aviation market. During the second quarter of 2010, the Company delivered 54 business and general aviation aircraft compared to 78 during the same period in 2009. Included in the second quarter 2009 results was a significant number of King Air aircraft delivered under the U.S. Government’s Project Liberty program. Project Liberty deliveries, which are reported as part of the B&GA segment, concluded in late 2009. Partially offsetting the decline in B&GA segment was continued higher volume in the Trainer Aircraft segment.
During the three months ended June 27, 2010, the Company recorded an operating loss of $20.7 million, compared to an operating income of $39.4 million during the comparable period in 2009. The decrease over the prior year was due to the decreased delivery volume in the Business and General Aviation segment offset partially by the increased volume in the Trainer Aircraft segment. Despite the operating loss, the Company’s cash flow generated by operations was $70.8 million during the three months ended June 27, 2010, compared to $29.5 million in the same quarter of 2009. On June 27, 2010, the Company’s cash balance was $307.2 million.
Backlog was $2.4 billion on June 27, 2010, compared to $3.1 billion on March 28, 2010. Backlog at June 27, 2010, reflects the impact of a cancellation notice from Net Jets which reduced backlog by approximately $400 million. As a result of this cancellation, the Company no longer has any backlog with Net Jets. None of the cancelled orders were scheduled for delivery in 2010 and only one was scheduled to deliver in 2011.
