STAMFORD, Conn. January 26, 2022 - Hexcel Corporation (NYSE: HXL) today reported fourth quarter 2021 results including net sales of $360 million and adjusted diluted EPS of $0.16 per share.

Chairman, CEO and President Nick Stanage said, "Our fourth quarter 2021 commercial aerospace sales grew more than fifty percent compared to the fourth quarter of 2020 with growth across the spectrum of aircraft programs including narrowbody, widebody and business jets. We see airlines looking beyond the pandemic as they place new aircraft orders to upgrade and expand their fleets with modern lightweight aircraft to support their objectives for improved fuel efficiency and emissions reduction. As the secular penetration of advanced composites continues and gains momentum, there is a compelling economic and environmental case for the lightweighting materials and products provided by Hexcel. During the pandemic we have continued our focus on internal sustainability initiatives and we recently issued targets for reducing our emissions, landfill waste and water usage by 2030 as well as continuing to enhance our strong safety culture."

Mr. Stanage continued, "We achieved another quarter of sequential growth in our sales and adjusted earnings per share in the fourth quarter of 2021. As our end market recovery is becoming more robust, we are providing financial guidance for 2022, recognizing that some challenges still remain. We continue to tightly manage costs and expect to expand margins in 2022 on growing sales as we re-utilize existing capacity that has been idled during the pandemic. We forecast continued sales growth, earnings expansion and strong free cash flow generation for 2022. Lastly, reflecting our growing confidence and positive outlook, I am pleased to announce that the Board of Directors has re-instituted a quarterly dividend."

Commercial Aerospace



Commercial Aerospace sales of $199.7 million increased 57.6% (58.7.% in constant currency) for the quarter compared to the fourth quarter of 2020 driven by higher narrowbody sales, increased Airbus A350 sales and higher business jet sales.

Consolidated Operations

Gross margin for the fourth quarter was 19.2% compared to 10.3% in the prior year period as increased sales reduced the under-absorption of fixed overhead.

Other operating expenses for the fourth quarter included charges for vaccination incentives and restructuring.

Consolidated Operations

Gross margin for 2021 was 18.9% compared to 16.0% in the prior year. As a percentage of sales, selling, general and administrative and R&T expenses for 2021 were 13.6% compared to 11.2% for 2020 as the prior year period included temporary cost reduction actions in response to the pandemic.

Cash, 2022 Guidance Update and other



The fourth quarter and full year 2021 tax expense was $4.3 million and $5.9 million, respectively. The fourth quarter expense included a discrete tax benefit resulting from the expiration of items related to uncertain tax positions. The tax expense for the full year 2021 included a net discrete charge primarily resulting from the revaluation of U.S. and foreign deferred tax liabilities. The tax benefit for the fourth quarter and full year of 2020 was $12.3 million and $61.0 million, respectively. The 2020 tax benefit of $61.0 million included discrete tax benefits primarily due to the release of a valuation allowance in a foreign jurisdiction.



Net cash generated from operating activities for 2021 was $151.7 million, compared to $264.3 million for 2020. Capital expenditures on a cash basis were $27.9 million for 2021 compared to $50.6 million for 2020. Free cash flow was $123.8 million for 2021 compared to $213.7 million for the 2020.

NOTE: Management believes that adjusted operating income (loss), adjusted net income (loss), adjusted diluted net income (loss) per share, the adjusted tax rate, 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.
