1. Organization, Basis of Interim Presentation and Recent Developments

Unless the context otherwise indicates or requires, as used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, references to “we,” “us,” “our,” and the “Company” refer to Spirit AeroSystems Holdings, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. References to “Spirit” refer only to our subsidiary, Spirit AeroSystems, Inc., and references to “Holdings” refer only to Spirit AeroSystems Holdings, Inc.

The Company provides manufacturing and design expertise in a wide range of fuselage, propulsion, and wing products and services for aircraft original equipment manufacturers (“OEM”) and operators through its subsidiaries including Spirit. The Company's headquarters are in Wichita, Kansas, with manufacturing and assembly facilities in Tulsa, Oklahoma; Prestwick, Scotland; Wichita, Kansas; Kinston, North Carolina; Subang, Malaysia; Saint-Nazaire, France; Biddeford, Maine; Woonsocket, Rhode Island; Belfast, Northern Ireland; Casablanca, Morocco; and Dallas, Texas.

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the Company’s financial statements and the financial statements of its majority-owned or controlled subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. The Company’s fiscal quarters are 13 weeks in length. Since the Company’s fiscal year ends on December 31, the number of days in the Company’s first and fourth quarters varies slightly from year to year. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

As part of the monthly consolidation process, the Company’s international subsidiaries that have functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated to U.S. dollars using the end-of-month translation rate for balance sheet accounts and average period currency translation rates for revenue and income accounts. The subsidiaries in Prestwick, Scotland and Subang, Malaysia use the British pound as their functional currency. All other foreign subsidiaries and branches use the U.S. dollar as their functional currency.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and elimination of intercompany balances and transactions) considered necessary to fairly present the results of operations for the interim period. The results of operations for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 29, 2022,~~March 30, 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, ~~2022.~~2023.

In connection with the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company evaluated subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued. The interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, included in the Company’s ~~2021~~2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February ~~15, 2022~~17, 2023 (the ~~“2021~~“2022 Form 10-K”).

The Company's significant accounting policies are described in Note 3 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to our consolidated financial statements in the ~~2021~~2022 Form 10-K.

~~B737 MAX~~

Boeing's deliveries of the B737 MAX resumed in the fourth quarter of 2020 when the FAA rescinded the order that grounded B737 MAX aircraft in the United States. Since November 2020, regulators from Brazil, Canada, the EU, U.K., India, and other countries have taken similar actions to unground the B737 MAX and permit return to service. The Civil Aviation Administration of China, which is the most significant country remaining not to allow the B737 MAX to return to service, issued an airworthiness directive in December 2021, directing corrective actions necessary to allow for return to service, and held a special meeting in September 2022 to review the training specifications for the aircraft. During the nine-month period ended September 29, 2022, Boeing continued to announce orders for the B737 MAX, and air carriers generally continued resuming flights on the aircraft.

~~Global Economic Events~~

Global economic conditions may impact the Company's results of operations. Russia’s February 2022 invasion of Ukraine, the resultant sanctions and other measures imposed by the U.S. and other governments, and other related impacts have resulted in economic and political uncertainty and risks. In response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and the associated U.S. sanctions, the Company suspended all sanctioned activities relating to Russia, primarily consisting of sales and service activities. In the second quarter of 2022, the Company recorded an aggregate pre-tax loss of $28.1 related to adjustments of certain assets and liabilities associated with sanctioned Russian business activities. The charges are included on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the nine-month period ended September 29, 2022. Continuation or significant expansion of economic disruption or escalation of the conflict, or other geopolitical events of a similar nature, could have a material adverse effect on orders from the Company's customers, the public’s ability or willingness to continue to travel, and/or the Company's results of operations. Energy, freight, raw material and other costs have been impacted by, and may continue to be impacted by, the conflict. These costs have also been impacted by global inflationary pressures, including significant increases in inflation in many countries in which the Company operates. The Company's associated estimates of such costs, where applicable, use the most recent information available. The economic impact of inflation, together with the impact of increases in interest rates and actions taken to attempt to reduce inflation, may have a significant effect on the global economy, air travel, the Company's supply chain and the Company's customers, and, as a result, on the Company's business. The Company continues to monitor and evaluate related risks and uncertainties, including the items discussed in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in the 2021 Form 10-K.

~~COVID-19~~

During the nine months ended September 29, 2022, the COVID-19 pandemic continued to have a significant negative impact on the aviation industry, the Company's customers, and the Company's business globally. Continued impacts on the aviation industry and the Company’s operational and financial performance remains uncertain and outside of the Company’s control. The Company expects the pandemic and its effects to continue to have a significant negative impact on its business for the duration of the pandemic and during the subsequent economic recovery, which could be for an extended period of time.

2. Adoption of New Accounting Standards

In ~~December 2019,~~September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ~~(“FASB”~~("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ~~(“ASU”~~("ASU") No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes ("ASU 2019-12”) which modifies FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740 to simplify the accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The adoption of ASU 2019-12 as of January 1, 2021 did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

~~3. New Accounting Pronouncements~~

~~In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04,~~ ~~Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848):Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting~~ (“ASU 2020-04”), which provides temporary optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. ASU 2020-04 provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. ASU 2020-04 is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022, and an entity may elect to apply ASU 2020-04 for contract modifications by Topic or Industry Subtopic as of any date from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020, or prospectively from a date within an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020, up to the date that the financial statements are available to be issued. An entity may elect to apply ASU 2020-04 to eligible hedging relationships existing as of the beginning of the interim period that includes March 12, 2020, and to new eligible hedging relationships entered into after the beginning of the interim period that includes March 12, 2020. To date, the Company has not had a modification to which the application of this guidance is applicable. The Company will continue evaluating the potential impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

~~(U.S. Dollars in millions other than per share amounts)~~

~~In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-10,~~ ~~Government Assistance (Topic 832) Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance~~ (“ASU 2021-10”). The amendments in the update require annual disclosures about transactions with a government that are accounted for by applying a grant or contribution accounting model by analogy. ASU 2021-10 is effective for all entities within its scope for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021. Early application is permitted. An entity should apply ASU 2021-10 either prospectively to all transactions within the scope of the amendments that are reflected in financial statements at the date of initial application and new transactions entered into after the date of initial application, or retrospectively to those transactions. The Company is preparing for the initial application of this guidance on its annual financial statements to be issued for the period ended December 31, 2022, which is not expected to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

~~In September 2022, the FASB issued~~ ASU No. 2022-04, Liabilities-Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50). The amendments in the update require additional qualitative and quantitative disclosure about supplier finance programs. The guidance does not affect the recognition, measurement or financial statement presentation of supplier finance program obligations. ASU No. 2022-04 is effective on a retrospective basis for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, except for an amended disclosure requirement related to certain rollforward information, which is effective on a prospective basis for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. ~~Early~~The adoption of this guidance did not have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements, and the Company does not expect this guidance to have a material impact prospectively.

3. New Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-06, which defers the sunset date of Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848):Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. ASU No. 2022-06 was effective upon issuance. ASU No. 2022-06 provides temporary optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting, providing optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. To date, the Company has not had a modification to which the application of this guidance is ~~permitted.~~applicable. The Company ~~is currently~~will continue evaluating the potential impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements, the impact of which is not expected to ~~have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.~~be material.

4. Changes in Estimates

The Company has a periodic forecasting process in which management assesses the progress and performance of the Company’s programs. This process requires management to review each program’s progress by evaluating the program schedule, changes to identified risks and opportunities, changes to estimated revenues and costs for the accounting contracts (and options if applicable), and any outstanding contract matters. Risks and opportunities include but are not limited to management’s judgment about the cost associated with the Company’s ability to achieve the schedule, technical requirements (e.g., a newly-developed product versus a mature product), and any other program requirements. Due to the span of years it may take to completely satisfy the performance obligations for the accounting contracts (and options, if any) and the scope and nature of the work required to be performed on those contracts, the estimation of total revenue and costs is subject to many variables and, accordingly, is subject to change based upon judgment. The Company’s estimate of costs depends on maintaining continuing, uninterrupted production at its manufacturing facilities and its suppliers’ facilities. Interruptions in deliveries of or increased prices for components or raw materials used in the Company's products, or labor disruptions, could delay production and/or materially adversely affect the Company's business. When adjustments in estimated total consideration or estimated total cost are required, any changes from prior estimates for fully satisfied performance obligations are recognized in the current period as a cumulative catch-up adjustment for the inception-to-date effect of such changes. Cumulative catch-up adjustments are driven by several factors including production efficiencies, assumed rate of production, the rate of overhead absorption, changes to scope of work, and contract modifications. Cumulative catch-up adjustments are primarily related to changes in the estimated margin of contracts with performance obligations that are satisfied over time.

Changes in estimates could materially adversely affect the Company’s future financial performance. While certain increases in raw material costs can generally be passed on to the Company’s customers, in most instances the Company must fully absorb cost overruns. Some of the factors that may cause the costs incurred in fulfilling contracts to vary substantially from current estimates are technical problems, production rate changes, materials shortages, supplier difficulties, realization targets, existence of and execution to recovery plans caused by these factors, and multiple other events, including those identified in Item 1A. "Risk Factors" of the 2022 Form 10-K. The risk applies in particular to products such as the B787, A220, and A350, which are in forward loss positions.

During the ~~third~~first quarter ended ~~September 29, 2022,~~March 30, 2023, the Company recognized unfavorable changes in estimates of ~~$54.0,~~$121.9, which included net forward loss charges of ~~$49.1,~~$110.0, and unfavorable cumulative catch-up adjustments related to periods prior to the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2022~~2023 of ~~$4.9.~~

$11.9. The forward losses in the ~~third~~first quarter were primarily driven by ~~losses~~supplier price negotiations and estimated supply chain costs including certain non-recurring cost estimates, schedule revisions, and foreign exchange headwinds on the ~~A350, B787,~~A220 program, schedule changes and ~~RB3070 programs. Increased~~other supply chain cost ~~estimates for production~~growth on the A350 program, ~~resulted in a forward loss reflecting~~ additional labor ~~freight,~~ and ~~other~~supply chain cost ~~requirements driven by parts shortages and production and quality issues. The~~growth on the B787 program, ~~forward loss was driven by~~and increased cost ~~estimates for supply chain, rework, and fixed cost absorption. The RB3070 nacelle program forward loss taken this quarter was driven by increased engineering cost estimates. To a lesser extent,~~projections on the ~~B767, KC-46 Tanker, and A330programs also contributed to the forward loss, as each had adjustments to increase the forward loss charges in the third quarter.~~CL650 program. The unfavorable cumulative catch-up adjustments primarily relate to ~~adjustments~~the Company's preliminary assessment of the impact to production costs including factory disruption related to the notice of escapement issued to Boeing for ~~production schedule changes~~the B737 Vertical Fin Attach Fittings and ~~increased costs on the A320 program.~~supply chain cost growth.

During the ~~third~~first quarter ended ~~September 30, 2021,~~March 31, 2022, the Company recognized unfavorable changes in estimates of ~~$73.2,~~$50.0, which included net forward loss charges of ~~$70.4,~~$23.8, and unfavorable cumulative catch-up adjustments related to periods prior to the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2021~~2022 of ~~$2.8.~~$26.2. The ~~forward losses~~unfavorable cumulative catch-up adjustments were primarily driven by increased estimates for supply chain, raw material, and other costs on the Boeing B737 MAX program. The forward losses in the quarter ended March 31, 2022 primarily related to the estimated impact of ~~reduced~~ production ~~volumes~~rate decreases and costs of rework on the Boeing B787 program, and increased costs of quality and production ~~schedule changes~~rate decreases on the ~~B787 and~~ A350 ~~programs.~~program.

The Company has agreements (through its subsidiaries) to sell, on a revolving basis, certain trade accounts receivable balances with Boeing, Airbus Group SE and its affiliates (collectively, “Airbus”), and Rolls-Royce PLC and its affiliates (collectively, “Rolls-Royce”) to third-party financial institutions. These programs were primarily entered into as a result of customers seeking payment term extensions with the Company and they continue to allow the Company to monetize the receivables prior to their payment date, subject to payment of a discount. No guarantees are delivered under the agreements. The Company's ability to continue using such agreements is primarily dependent upon the strength of the applicable customer’s financial condition. Transfers under these agreements are accounted for as sales of receivables resulting in the receivables being derecognized from the Company's ~~balance sheet.~~Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. For the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 29, 2022, $2,083.0~~March 30, 2023, $849.4 of accounts receivable were sold via these arrangements. The proceeds from these sales of receivables are included in cash from operating activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The recorded net loss on sale of receivables was ~~$12.8~~$11.2 for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 29, 2022~~March 30, 2023 and is included in Other income and expense.

During the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 29, 2022,~~March 30, 2023, there have been no significant changes in the factors that influenced management’s current estimate of expected credit losses, nor changes to the Company’s accounting policies or Current Expected Credit Losses methodology. The beginning balances, current period activity, and ending balances of the allocation for credit losses on accounts receivable and contract assets were not material.

6. Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities

Contract assets primarily represent revenues recognized for performance obligations that have been satisfied but for which amounts have not been billed. Contract assets, current are those that are expected to be billed to our customer within 12 months. Contract assets, long-term are those that are expected to be billed to our customer over periods greater than 12 months. No impairments to contract assets were recorded for the period ended ~~September 29, 2022~~March 30, 2023 or the period ended ~~September 30, 2021.~~March 31, 2022. See also Note 5 Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses.

Contract liabilities are established for cash received in excess of revenues recognized and are contingent upon the satisfaction of performance obligations. Contract liabilities primarily consist of cash received on contracts for which revenue has been deferred since the receipts are in excess of transaction price resulting from the allocation of consideration based on relative standalone selling price to future units (including those under option that the Company believes are likely to be exercised) with prices that are lower than standalone selling price. These contract liabilities will be recognized earlier if the options are not fully exercised, or immediately, if the contract is terminated prior to the options being fully exercised.

For the period ended ~~September 29,~~March 30, 2023, the increase in contract assets reflects the net impact of more over time revenue recognition in relation to billed revenues during the period. The decrease in contract liabilities reflects the net impact of less deferred revenues recorded in excess of revenue recognized during the period. The Company recognized $25.8 of revenue that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of the period.

For the period ended March 31, 2022, the increase in contract assets reflects the net impact of more over time revenue recognition in relation to billed revenues during the period. The decrease in contract liabilities reflects the net impact of less deferred revenues recorded in excess of revenue recognized during the period. The Company recognized ~~$63.2~~ ~~of revenue that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of the period.~~

8. Inventory

Inventory consists of raw materials used in the production process, work-in-process, which is direct material, direct labor, overhead and purchases, and capitalized pre-production costs. Raw materials are stated at lower of cost (principally on an actual or average cost basis) or net realizable value. Capitalized pre-production costs include certain contract costs, including applicable overhead, incurred before a product is manufactured on a recurring basis. These costs are typically amortized over a period that is consistent with the satisfaction of the underlying performance obligations to which these relate.

For the period ended ~~September 29, 2022,~~March 30, 2023, there were no events which would require the Company to update its impairment analysis.

10. Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at the inception of a signed agreement. Operating leases are included in right-of-use (“ROU”) assets (long-term), short-term operating lease liabilities, and long-term operating lease liabilities on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Finance leases are included in Property, Plant and Equipment, current maturities of long-term debt, and long-term debt.

ROU assets represent the right of the Company to use an underlying asset for the length of the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term.

To determine the present value of lease payments, the Company uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate or the implicit rate, if readily determinable. The estimated incremental borrowing rate is based on information available at the lease commencement date, including any recent debt issuances and publicly available data for instruments with similar characteristics. The ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives.

The Company's lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease and, when it is reasonably certain that an option will be exercised, those options are included in the net present value calculation. Leases with a term of 12 months or less, which are primarily related to automobiles and manufacturing equipment, are not recorded on the ~~balance sheet.~~Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The aggregate amount of lease cost for leases with a term of 12 months or less is not material.

~~(U.S. Dollars in millions other than per share amounts)~~

The Company has lease agreements that include lease and non-lease components, which are generally accounted for separately. For certain leases (primarily related to IT equipment), the Company does account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. A portfolio approach is applied to effectively account for the ROU assets and liabilities for those specific leases referenced above. The Company does not have any material leases containing variable lease payments or residual value guarantees. The Company also does not have any material subleases.

The Company currently has operating and finance leases for items such as manufacturing facilities, corporate offices, manufacturing equipment, transportation equipment, and vehicles. The majority of the Company's active leases have remaining lease terms that range between less than one year to 18 years, some of which include options to extend the leases for up to 30 years, and some of which include options to terminate the leases within one year.

12. Advance Payments

Advances on the B787 Program. Boeing has made advance payments to Spirit under the B787 Special Business Provisions and General Terms Agreement (collectively, the “B787 Supply Agreement”) that are required to be repaid to Boeing by way of offset against the purchase price for future shipset deliveries. Advance repayments were initially scheduled to be spread evenly over the remainder of the first 1,000 B787 shipsets delivered to Boeing. On April 8, 2014, Spirit signed a memorandum of agreement with Boeing that suspended advance repayments related to the B787 program for a period of twelve months beginning April 1, 2014. Repayment recommenced on April 1, 2015, and any repayments that otherwise would have become due during such twelve-month period will offset the purchase price for shipsets ~~1,001~~1001 through ~~1,120.~~1120. On December 21, 2018, Spirit signed a memorandum of agreement with Boeing that again suspended the advance repayments beginning with line unit 818. The advance repayments will resume at a lower rate of $0.45 per shipset at line number 1135 and continue through line number 1605.

In the event Boeing does not take delivery of a sufficient number of shipsets to repay the full amount of advances prior to the termination of the B787 program or the B787 Supply Agreement, any advances not then repaid will be applied against any outstanding payments then due by Boeing to us, and any remaining balance will be repaid in annual installments of $27 due on December 15th of each year until the advance payments have been fully recovered by Boeing. As of ~~September 29, 2022,~~March 30, 2023, the amount of advance payments received from Boeing under the B787 Supply Agreement and not yet repaid was approximately $~~208.5.~~202.6.

Advances on the B737 Program. In an effort to minimize the disruption to Spirit's operations and its supply chain, Spirit and Boeing entered into a Memorandum of Agreement on April 12, 2019 (the "2019 MOA"), which included the terms and conditions for an advance payment to be made from Boeing to Spirit in the amount of $123, which was received during the third quarter of 2019. ~~The parties~~Spirit and Boeing entered into ~~another memorandum~~a Memorandum of ~~agreement~~Agreement on February 6, 2020, ~~(the "2020 MOA"),~~ which extended the repayment date of the $123 advance received by Spirit under the 2019 MOA to 2022. ~~The 2020 MOA also required Boeing to pay $225 to Spirit in the first quarter of 2020, consisting of (i) $70 in support of Spirit's inventory~~$0.0 and ~~production stabilization, of which $10 was repaid by Spirit in 2021, and (ii) $155 as an incremental pre-payment for costs and shipset deliveries over the next two years. On February 9, 2021,~~ ~~Spirit signed a letter of agreement under which Boeing paid $38.5 to Spirit in the first quarter of 2021, which consisted of (i) $68.5 as additional pre-payment for the costs and shipset deliveries less the (ii) $30 credit owed to Boeing for rate-based pricing premium. During the~~ ~~nine-month period ended September 29, 2022, $92.3 of the advance payment was repaid. As of~~ ~~September 29, 2022, the amount~~$30.8 of advance payments received from Boeing were repaid in the three months ended March 30, 2023 and ~~not yet repaid~~March 31, 2022, respectively. There was ~~$30.7~~.no balance due as of March 30, 2023.

Other. The Advance payments, short-term line item on the Condensed Consolidated Balance ~~Sheet~~Sheets for the period ended ~~September 29, 2022~~March 30, 2023 includes $18.9 related to payments received from an Aftermarket segment customer for contracted work that was impacted by the sanctions imposed by the U.S. and other governments on Russia following its invasion of Ukraine.

13. Fair Value Measurements

The FASB’s authoritative guidance on fair value measurements defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. It also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The guidance discloses three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 1 assets and liabilities include debt and equity securities and derivative contracts that are traded in an active exchange market.

Level 2 Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 2 assets and liabilities include debt securities with quoted prices that are traded less frequently than exchange-traded instruments and derivative contracts whose value is determined using a pricing model with inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. Observable inputs, such as current and forward

~~Table of Contents~~

~~Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)~~

~~(U.S. Dollars in millions other than per share amounts)~~

interest rates and foreign exchange rates, are used in determining the fair value of the interest rate swaps and foreign currency hedge contracts.

Level 3 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of assets and liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

At ~~September 29, 2022,~~March 30, 2023, the Company’s long-term debt includes a senior secured term loan and senior notes described further under Note 15 Debt. The estimated fair value of the Company’s debt obligations is based on the quoted market prices for such obligations or the historical default rate for debt with similar credit ratings. The following table presents the carrying amount and estimated fair value of long-term debt. See also Note 14 Derivative and Hedging Activities, and Note 16 Pension and Other Post-Retirement Benefits.

~~Derivatives Accounted for as Hedges~~

~~Cash Flow Hedges - Interest Rate Swaps~~

The Company has traditionally entered into interest rate swap agreements to reduce its exposure to the variable rate portion of its long-term debt. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had one interest rate swap agreement, designated as cash flow hedge, with a notional value of $150. In February, 2021, the Company terminated the swap agreement. The Company had no interest rate swaps outstanding during the nine-month period ended September 29, 2022.

Changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges are recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("AOCI") and recorded in earnings in the period in which the hedged transaction occurs. No gain or loss was recognized in AOCI for the three or nine months ended September 30, 2021. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 a loss of $0.0 and $0.4, respectively, was reclassified from AOCI to earnings, and included in the interest expense line item on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, and in operating activities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Fl~~ows. For the three and~~ ~~nine~~ months ended September 30, 2021 a loss of $0.0 and $0.7, respectively, was reclassified from AOCI to earnings resulting from the termination of a swap agreement, and included in the other income line item on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, and in operating activities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Derivatives Accounted for as Hedges

Cash Flow Hedges – Foreign Currency Forward Contract

The Company has entered into currency forward contracts, each designated as a cash flow hedge upon the date of execution, for the purpose of reducing the variability of cash flows and hedging against the foreign currency exposure for forecasted payroll, pension and vendor disbursements that are expected to be made in the British Pound Sterling. The hedging program implemented is intended to reduce foreign currency exposure, and the associated forward currency contracts hedge forecasted transactions through ~~September~~December 2023.

The following table summarizes the notional amounts (representing the gross contract/notional amount of the derivatives outstanding) and fair values of the derivative instruments in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of ~~September 29, 2022,~~March 30, 2023, and December 31, ~~2021.~~2022. The foreign currency exchange contracts are measured within Level 1 of the Fair Value hierarchy. See Note 13 Fair Value Measurements.

18. Income Taxes

The process for calculating the Company’s income tax expense involves estimating actual current taxes due plus assessing temporary differences arising from differing treatment for tax and accounting purposes that are recorded as deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are periodically evaluated to determine their recoverability and whether a valuation allowance is necessary.

A valuation allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. When determining the amount of net deferred tax assets that are more likely than not to be realized, the Company assesses all available positive and negative evidence. The weight given to the positive and negative evidence is commensurate with the extent the evidence may be objectively verified. As such, it is generally difficult for positive evidence regarding projected future taxable income exclusive of reversing taxable temporary differences to outweigh objective negative evidence of recent financial reporting losses.

Based on these criteria and the relative weighting of both the positive and negative evidence available, and in particular the activity surrounding our prior earnings history, including the forward losses previously recognized in the U.S., the Company has recorded ~~an incremental~~a valuation allowance against U.S. deferred tax assets. Increases in the valuation allowances recorded against U.S. deferred tax assets ~~of $92.1 for~~in the ~~nine~~three month period ended ~~September 29, 2022.~~March 30, 2023 were $32.1. This is comprised of ($0.2) related to other comprehensive income ("OCI") and $32.3 from continuing operations. As of ~~September 29, 2022,~~March 30, 2023, the total net U.S. deferred tax asset before the valuation allowance was ~~$389.4~~$468.6 and the total net U.S. valuation allowance was ~~$388.3.~~$467.3. The net U.S. deferred tax asset after valuation allowances was ~~$1.1. The change from December 31, 2021 is additional net valuation allowance recognized on the deferred tax assets generated from the 2022 activity.~~$1.3.

The Company has determined a valuation allowance on certain U.K. deferred tax assets is needed based upon cumulative losses generated in the U.K. Increases in the valuation allowances recorded against U.K. deferred tax assets in the ~~nine~~three month period ended ~~September 29, 2022~~March 30, 2023 were ~~$19.2.~~$18.7. This is comprised of ~~$5.8~~($1.5) related to other comprehensive income ("OCI") and ~~$13.4~~$20.2 from continuing operations, including utilization of ~~NOL's.~~net operating losses. As of ~~September 29, 2022,~~March 30, 2023, the total net U.K. deferred tax asset before the valuation allowance was ~~$258.4~~$300.9 and the total net U.K. valuation allowance was ~~$259.8.~~$297.9. The net U.K. deferred tax liability after valuation allowance was ~~$1.4.~~$3.0.

The Company files income tax returns in all jurisdictions in which it operates. The Company establishes reserves to provide for additional income taxes that may be due upon audit. These reserves are established based on management’s assessment as to the potential exposure attributable to permanent tax adjustments and associated interest. All tax reserves are analyzed quarterly and adjustments made as events occur that warrant modification.

In general, the Company records income tax expense each quarter based on its estimate as to the full year’s effective tax rate. Certain items, however, are given discrete period treatment and the tax effects for such items are therefore reported in the quarter that an event arises. Events or items that may give rise to discrete recognition include excess tax benefits with respect to share-based compensation, finalizing amounts in income tax returns filed, finalizing audit examinations for open tax years and expiration of statutes of limitations, and changes in tax law.

The ~~(6.49%)~~1.5% effective tax rate for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 29, 2022~~March 30, 2023 differs from the ~~0.15%~~17.4% effective tax rate for the same period of ~~2021~~2022 primarily due to ~~increase~~lower research and development credits and changes in the valuation allowances recorded on U.S. and U.K. deferred tax ~~assets.~~assets, offset by foreign rate differences and lower executive compensation subject to Section 162(m). As the Company is currently reporting a pre-tax loss for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 29, 2022,~~March 30, 2023, an increase in the effective tax rate results in an increase of income tax benefits while a decrease in the rate results in a reduction of income tax benefits.

As of ~~September 29, 2022, the Company had deferred $16.5 of employer payroll taxes, as~~ allowed by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, ~~which are required to be deposited by December 2022.

The Company's federal audit ~~for the 2020 tax year~~ is ~~substantially complete~~conducted under the Internal Revenue Service Compliance Assurance ~~Program~~Process ("CAP"). program and is essentially complete for the 2020 tax year. The Company will continue to participate in the CAP program for ~~the~~ 2021 ~~and 2022 tax years.~~through 2023. The CAP ~~program’s~~program's objective is to resolve issues in a timely, contemporaneous manner and eliminate the need for a lengthy post-filing examination.

There are ongoing audits in other jurisdictions that are not material to the financial statements and the Company believes appropriate provisions for all outstanding tax issues have been made for all jurisdictions and years.

During the quarter ended September 29, 2022, President Biden signed into law the CHIPS and Science Act and the Inflation Reduction Act. The new legislation provides tax incentives as well as imposes a 15% minimum tax on certain corporations' book income and a 1% excise tax on certain stock buybacks. The Company has evaluated the effect, if any, of these new laws on the consolidated financial statements and does not expect a material impact. The impact of these new laws will be monitored as additional guidance and clarification is presented on these items.

20. Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees

Litigation

On February 10, 2020, February 24, 2020, and March 24, 2020, three separate private securities class action lawsuits were filed against the Company in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Oklahoma, its Chief Executive Officer, Tom Gentile III, former Chief Financial Officer, Jose Garcia, and former Controller (principal accounting officer), John Gilson. On April 20, 2020, the Class Actions were consolidated by the court (the “Consolidated Class Action”), and on July 20, 2020, the plaintiffs filed a Consolidated Class Action Complaint which added Shawn Campbell, the Company’s former Vice President for the ~~737NG~~B737NG and B737 MAX program, as a defendant. Allegations in the Consolidated Class Action include (i) violations of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder against the Company and Messrs. Gentile, Garcia and Gilson, (ii) violations of Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act against the individual defendants, and (iii) violations of Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5(a) and (c) promulgated thereunder against all defendants.

On June 11, 2020, a shareholder derivative lawsuit (the “Derivative Action 1”) was filed against the Company (as nominal defendant), all members of the Company’s Board of Directors, and Messrs. Garcia and Gilson in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Oklahoma. Allegations in the Derivative Action 1 include (i) breach of fiduciary duty, (ii) abuse of control, and (iii) gross mismanagement. On October 5, 2020, a shareholder derivative lawsuit (the “Derivative Action 2” and, together with Derivative Action 1, the “Derivative Actions”) was filed against the Company (as nominal defendant), all members of the Company’s Board of Directors, and Messrs. Garcia and Gilson in the Eighteenth Judicial District, District Court of Sedgwick County, Kansas. Allegations in the Derivative Action 2 include (i) breach of fiduciary duty, (ii) waste of corporate assets, and (iii) unjust enrichment.

The facts underlying the Consolidated Class Action and Derivative Actions relate to the accounting process compliance independent review (the “Accounting Review”) discussed in the Company’s January 30, 2020 press release and described under Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Accounting Review in Part II, Item 7 of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, and its resulting conclusions. The Company voluntarily reported to the SEC the determination that, with respect to the third quarter of 2019, the Company did not comply with its established accounting processes related to potential third quarter contingent liabilities received after the quarter-end.

On March 24, 2020, the Staff of the SEC Enforcement Division informed the Company that it had determined to close its inquiry without recommending any enforcement action against the Company. In addition, the facts underlying the Consolidated Class Action and Derivative Actions relate to the Company’s disclosures regarding the B737 MAX grounding and Spirit’s production rate (and related matters) after the grounding. On September 18, 2020, the Company and individual defendants filed a motion to dismiss the Consolidated Class Action. That motion was granted by the U.S. District Court on January 7, 2022, which denied leave to amend and dismissed the Consolidated Class Action with prejudice. On February 4, 2022, the plaintiffs in the Consolidated Class Action appealed this decision to the Tenth Circuit Court of ~~Appeals. In the appellate proceedings, both parties~~Appeals (the "Appellate Court"). Briefings have been filed ~~briefs in support of their respective positions~~ and oral argument ~~will be~~was held before the Appellate Court on November 18, 2022. The Derivative Actions remain stayed at this point. The Company and the individual defendants have denied, and continue to deny, the allegations in the Consolidated Class Action and the Derivative Actions.

Spirit is also involved in litigation with its former Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") related to a disputed violation of restrictive covenants in his retirement agreement. On October 19, 2021, the U.S. District Court for the District of Kansas (the "District Court") ruled in favor of the former ~~Chief Executive Officer~~CEO and awarded him $44.8 for benefits withheld in connection with the disputed violation. The Company has appealed this decision to the ~~Tenth Circuit~~Appellate Court. On February 27, 2023, the Appellate Court issued an opinion reversing the District Court decision and concluding that the former CEO had violated the terms of ~~Appeals,~~the restrictive covenant, and remanded for the District Court to address in the first instance whether the restrictive covenant is enforceable under state law. On March 13, 2023, the CEO file a Petition for Panel Rehearing, which ~~is still pending~~was denied on March 28, 2023 following Spirit's response to the Petition. On April 13, 2023, the District Court issued a briefing schedule as to the issue remanded by the Appellate Court with ~~oral argument scheduled for November~~briefing to be completed by May 15, ~~2022.~~2023. A liability for the full amount of the award issued on October 19, 2021, plus accrued interest ~~has been~~through March 28, 2023, was recognized and remains accrued in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~September 29, 2022.~~March 30, 2023.

From time to time, in the ordinary course of business and similar to others in the industry, the Company receives requests for information from government agencies in connection with their regulatory or investigational authority. Such requests can include subpoenas or demand letters for documents to assist the government in audits or investigations. The Company reviews

Table of Contents

Spirit AeroSystems Holdings, Inc.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

(U.S. Dollars in millions other than per share amounts)

such requests and notices and takes appropriate action. Additionally, the Company is subject to federal and state requirements for protection of the environment, including those for disposal of hazardous waste and remediation of contaminated sites. As a result, the Company is required to participate in certain government investigations regarding environmental remediation actions.

In addition to the items addressed above, from time to time, the Company is subject to, and is presently involved in, litigation, legal proceedings, or other claims arising in the ordinary course of business. While the final outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, considering, among other things, the meritorious legal defenses available, the Company believes that, on a basis of information presently available, none of these items, when finally resolved, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s long-term financial position or liquidity.

Customer and Vendor Claims

The Company receives, and is currently subject to, customer and vendor claims arising in the ordinary course of business, including, but not limited to, those related to product quality and late delivery. The Company accrues for matters when losses are deemed probable and reasonably estimable. In evaluating matters for accrual and disclosure purposes, ~~we take~~the Company takes into consideration multiple factors including without limitation ~~our~~its historical experience with matters of a similar nature, the specific facts and circumstances asserted, the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome, and the severity of any potential loss. Any accruals deemed necessary are reevaluated at least quarterly and updated as matters progress over time.

The Company has evaluated and refined management’s original estimate of costs related to rework on the B787 aircraft, including a preliminary assessment related to rework on the forward section of the fuselage, for which the Company identified an additional fit and finish issue in the prior year. The Company continues to coordinate with Boeing for necessary rework. The Company cannot reasonably estimate the amount of any potential claims related to this issue at this time.

On June 25, 2022 and February 28, 2023, the Company received ~~notice~~separate notices of ~~a claim~~claims from a key customer seeking cost recovery primarily related to alleged product quality ~~and~~issues associated with the Company’s performance from 2018 through June of 2022 as well as onsite manufacturing ~~support. During~~support costs incurred by the ~~three months ended September 29, 2022, the~~customer. The Company has continued to evaluate the details included within ~~this claim,~~these claims, however, the Company cannot currently reasonably estimate the amount of ~~any potential loss~~a range of possible losses due to various reasons, including, among others: (i) that there is uncertainty as to the outcome of ~~this claim,~~these claims, (ii) that there ~~may be~~are significant factual, commercial, and/or legal issues to be resolved, and (iii) the availability of data required to complete an assessment of the potential loss.

While the final outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, considering, among other things, the factual and legal defenses available, it is the opinion of the Company that none of these items, when finally resolved, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s long-term financial position or liquidity. However, it is possible that the Company’s results of operations in a specific period could be materially affected by one or more of these other matters.

Contingencies

In the first quarter of 2023, the Company updated its estimated cost to satisfy all customer firm orders on the B787, A350, and A220 production programs. Based on forecasted backlog and rates of production, each of these programs anticipates production will extend beyond the period of time for which the Company has recorded forward losses. The Company has recorded forward losses on the A220 and A350 programs for forecasted production through the end of 2025 and has recognized forward losses on the B787 program for forecasted production through May of 2026. As a result of the Company’s assessment of existing cost estimates and the impact macroeconomic factors may have on the Company's cost to complete all firm orders, as well as ongoing discussions with its customers, the Company believes it is reasonably possible one or more of these programs could be performed at a loss incremental to forward losses previously recorded for production outside of the timeframe highlighted above, and the cumulative range of such loss across these programs is between $0.0 and $220.0 million. As the Company does not currently believe incremental losses are evident on any of these programs, the Company has not recognized any such losses in its financial results for the period ended March 30, 2023.

On April 12, 2023, the Company issued a notice of escapement to Boeing related to the quality issue on the B737 Vertical Fin Attach Fitting. The Company's preliminary assessment of the potential impacts to production costs expected to be incurred will result in a total gross margin impact of approximately $31.0 million. As a component of this total preliminary estimate, and included in Note 4, Changes in Estimate, the Company has included an estimate related to the impact to

Table of Contents

Spirit AeroSystems Holdings, Inc.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

(U.S. Dollars in millions other than per share amounts)

production costs including factory disruption as a negative cumulative catch-up adjustment of approximately $7.0 million within its results for the period ended March 30, 2023. The Company expects that it will incur additional costs to resolve the quality issue related to the B737 Vertical Fin Attach Fittings, including costs our customer may assert related to the impact of completing these repairs on previously delivered units in their factory, and warranty costs related to affected B737 units in service. As a result of the current uncertainty regarding, among other things, the total number of affected units, the methods of acceptable repair on completed units, the total amount of time required to complete the associated repairs, and at what point in time and what manner repairs would be completed on B737 units in service, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the remaining costs to be incurred related to the B737 Vertical Fin Attach Fittings quality issue at this time.

Guarantees

Contingent liabilities in the form of letters of guarantee have been provided by the Company. Outstanding guarantees were ~~$12.9~~$14.5 and ~~$15.9~~$13.9 at ~~September 29, 2022~~March 30, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, respectively.

Restricted Cash - Collateral Requirements

The Company was required to maintain ~~$19.5~~$22.1 and ~~$19.5~~$19.6 of restricted cash as of ~~September 29, 2022~~March 30, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, respectively, related to certain collateral requirements for obligations under its workers’ compensation programs. ~~The restricted~~Restricted cash is included in ~~"Restricted cash" and “Other assets”~~Other assets in the ~~Company’s~~Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Indemnification

The Company has entered into customary indemnification agreements with its non-employee directors, and its bylaws and certain executive employment agreements include indemnification and advancement provisions. Pursuant to the terms of the bylaws and, with respect to Jose Garcia, his employment agreement, the Company is providing Messrs. Garcia and Gilson and all other individual defendants withdefense costs and provisional indemnity with respect to the Consolidated Class Action and Derivative Actions, as appropriate. Under the bylaws and any applicable agreements, the Company agrees to indemnify each of these individuals against claims arising out of events or occurrences related to that individual’s service as the Company’s agent or the agent of any of its subsidiaries to the fullest extent legally permitted.

The Company has agreed to indemnify parties for specified liabilities incurred, or that may be incurred, in connection with transactions they have entered into with the Company. The Company is unable to assess the potential number of future claims that may be asserted under these indemnities, nor the amounts thereof (if any). As a result, the Company cannot estimate the maximum potential amount of future payments under these indemnities and therefore, no liability has been recorded.

Service and Product Warranties and Extraordinary Rework

Provisions for estimated expenses related to service and product warranties and certain extraordinary rework are evaluated on a quarterly basis. These costs are accrued and are recorded to unallocated cost of goods sold. These estimates are established using historical information on the nature, frequency, and average cost of warranty claims, including the experience of industry peers. In the case of new development products or new customers, the Company considers other factors including the experience of other entities in the same business and management judgment, among others. Service warranty and extraordinary ~~rework~~work is reported in ~~Current~~current liabilities and ~~Other~~other liabilities on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The warranty balance presented in the table below includes unresolved warranty claims that are in dispute in regards to their value as well as their contractual liability. The Company estimated the total costs related to some of these claims; however, there is significant uncertainty surrounding the disposition of these disputed claims and as such, the ultimate determination of the provision’s adequacy requires significant management judgment. The amount of the specific provisions recorded against disputed warranty claims was $2.3 as of ~~September 29, 2022~~March 30, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021.~~2022. These specific provisions represent the Company’s best estimate of probable warranty claims. Should the Company incur higher than expected warranty costs and/or discover new or additional information related to these warranty provisions, the Company may incur additional charges that exceed these recorded provisions. The Company utilized available information to make appropriate assessments, however the Company recognizes that data on actual claims experience is of limited duration and therefore, claims projections are subject to significant judgment. The amount of the reasonably possible disputed warranty claims in excess of the specific warranty provision was $3.4 as of ~~September 29, 2022~~March 30, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021.~~

22. Segment Information

The Company operates in three principal segments: Commercial, Defense & Space and Aftermarket. Approximately 83% ~~and 82%~~ of the Company's net revenues for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September 29, 2022, respectively,~~March 30, 2023 came from the Company's two largest customers, Boeing and Airbus. Boeing represents a substantial portion of the Company's revenues across segments. Airbus represents a substantial portion of revenues in the Commercial segment. The Company's primary profitability measure to review a segment’s operating performance is segment operating income before corporate selling, general and administrative expenses, and research and development.

Corporate selling, general and administrative expenses include centralized functions such as accounting, treasury and human resources that are not specifically related to the Company's operating segments and are not allocated in measuring the operating segments’ profitability and performance and net profit margins. Research and development includes research and development efforts that benefit the Company as a whole and are not unique to a specific segment. These items are not

The Company’s definition of segment operating income differs from Operating income as presented in its primary financial statements and a reconciliation of the segment and consolidated results is provided in the table set forth below.

While some working capital accounts are maintained on a segment basis, much of the Company’s assets are not managed or maintained on a segment basis. Property, plant and equipment, including tooling, is used in the design and production of

products for each of the segments and, therefore, is not allocated to any individual segment. In addition, cash, prepaid expenses, other assets, and deferred taxes are managed and maintained on a consolidated basis and generally do not pertain to any particular segment. Raw materials and certain component parts are used in aerostructure production across all segments. Work-in-process inventory is identifiable by segment, but is managed and evaluated at the program level. As there is no segmentation of the Company’s productive assets, depreciation expense (included in fixed manufacturing costs and selling, general and administrative expenses) and capital expenditures, no allocation of these amounts has been made solely for purposes of segment disclosure requirements.

The following table shows segment revenues and operating loss for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September 29, 2022~~March 30, 2023 and ~~September 30, 2021:~~March 31, 2022:

23. Restructuring Costs

The Company's results of operations for ~~both~~ the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September 29,~~March 30, 2023 include restructuring costs related to the Voluntary Separation Program ("VSP") that was offered to reduce structural costs by reducing indirect headcount. Participants in the VSP received a lump sum severance payment based on their years of Company service.

Restructuring costs are presented separately as a component of operating loss on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The total restructuring costs for the three months ended March 30, 2023 were $6.3, of which, $5.4 was included in segment operating margins for the Commercial Segment and $0.9 was included in segment operating margins for the Defense & Space Segment. The total restructuring cost for the three months ended March 30, 2023 is recorded in the accrued expenses line item on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 30, 2023.

The Company's results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 ~~and September 30, 2021 include~~includes restructuring costs related to actions the Company has taken to align costs to updated production levels that have been directed by the Company's customers (restructuring activity). Largely beginning in the first quarter of 2020, the Company's customers, including Boeing and Airbus, significantly reduced their overall production rates as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and, in the case of Boeing, the B737 MAX grounding. The restructuring activity materially affected the scope of operations and manner in which business is conducted by the Company compared to periods prior to the restructuring activities.

~~Restructuring costs are presented separately as a component of operating loss on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.~~ The total restructuring costs for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September 29,~~March 31, 2022 were ~~$0.0 and~~ $0.2 ~~respectively,~~ and are included in segment operating margins for the Commercial Segment.

24. Supplier Financing

The Company has provided certain suppliers with access to a supply chain financing program through a facility with a third-party financing institution. The Company's suppliers' ability to access the program is primarily dependent upon the strength of the Company's financial condition and ~~nine months ended September~~certain qualifying criteria. This program was primarily entered into as a result of the Company seeking payment term extensions with primarily production suppliers, and the program allows these suppliers to monetize their receivables prior to the contractual payment date, subject to payment of a discount. The capacity of the program is limited to $97.0 at any point in time. If a supplier's request exceeds the program limit, then it will be honored when capacity is available. Under the supply chain financing program, the Company agrees to pay the third-party financing institution the stated amount of confirmed invoices from its designated suppliers on the original maturity dates of the invoices, and suppliers have the ability to be paid from the third-party financing institution on an accelerated basis. The Company’s suppliers’ election to sell one or more of the Company’s confirmed obligations under the supply chain financing program is optional. The Company's responsibility is limited to making payment on the terms originally negotiated with its suppliers for up to 120 days, regardless of whether the suppliers elect to sell their receivables to the third-party financing institution. The Company or the third-party financing institution may terminate the agreement upon at least 45 days’ notice.

The balance of confirmed obligations outstanding to suppliers who elect to participate in the supply chain financing program is included in the Company’s accounts payable balance on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of March 30, ~~2021, total restructuring costs~~2023, the balance of ~~$0.8 and $8.1, respectively,~~confirmed obligations outstanding was $110.6, an increase of $8.6 over the balance as of December 31, 2022 of $102.0. In the comparable prior year period, confirmed obligations outstanding were ~~comprised largely~~$72.3 as of ~~costs incurred~~March 31, 2022 an increase of $13.4 over the balance as of December 31, 2021. The changes in each period primarily reflect purchases from suppliers related to production levels during the ~~period related~~respective periods.

25. Acquisitions

T.E.A.M., Inc.

On November 23, 2022, Spirit AeroSystems Textiles, LLC, a fully owned subsidiary of Spirit AeroSystems, Inc. ("Spirit Textiles") closed its purchase of substantially all of the assets and all of the liabilities of T.E.A.M., Inc., a Rhode Island corporation, which is engaged in the business of manufacturing and engineering textiles, composites, and textile and composite products, for cash consideration of $31.3. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations.The purchase price has been allocated among assets acquired and liabilities assumed at fair value based on information currently available, with the excess purchase price recorded as goodwill, which is fully allocated to ~~site closures. The total amount for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $0.7 and $6.7, respectively, for the Commercial Segment, $0.1 and $1.2, respectively, for~~ the Defense & Space ~~Segment,~~segment. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had preliminarily concluded, but not finalized, its assessment and ~~$0.0~~purchase price allocation of the acquisition. The final fair value determination was subject to a contractual post-closing working capital true-up, which the Company concluded in the three months ended March 30, 2023. The final purchase price allocation resulted in $0.6 adjustments to the assets acquired and ~~$0.2, respectively,~~the liabilities assumed that were recorded as of the acquisition date, which were included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2022. As of March 30, 2023, the adjusted assets acquired and the liabilities assumed included $8.3 of property, plant and equipment, $1.7 of working capital, $13.5 of intangible assets and $7.7 allocated to goodwill, which is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. Operating income for the ~~Aftermarket Segment.~~first quarter of 2023 was immaterial and reported within the Defense & Space segment.

There were no acquisition-related expenses for the three months ended March 30, 2023 and for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

26. Subsequent Events

After the balance sheet date of March 30, 2023, Spirit entered into agreements with certain customers to provide cash advances, based upon certain agreed upon performance criteria, which Spirit expects to receive in the second and fourth quarters of 2023. Spirit will receive advances of $230.0 in the second quarter, $180.0 of which is from Boeing.

On April 28, 2023, Spirit entered into a memorandum of agreement with Boeing, which requires a repayment of $90.0 on February 14, 2024, and $90.0 on February 14, 2025. Spirit’s repayment obligation will be accelerated, and any outstanding amount advanced under the agreement will immediately become due and payable, in the event that (i) Spirit fails to make any repayment in full on the applicable Repayment Date, (ii) Spirit fails to submit a satisfactory written confirmation that Spirit is able to and intends to make the required repayment thirty days prior to each Repayment Date, as required under the agreement, or (iii) Spirit repudiates any performance obligation under the agreement or certain of Spirit’s existing agreements with Boeing. Boeing will have the right to set off any unpaid amount due and payable under the memorandum of agreement from any amount owed to Boeing under any other agreement between the parties.

The remaining advance of $50.0 to be received in the second quarter of 2023, and the expected incremental advance of $50.0 in the fourth quarter of 2023 will require equal quarterly repayments in 2025.

We expect these advances to be accounted for as financing cash flows.

Global Economic ~~Events~~Conditions and COVID-19

Global economic conditions ~~may~~ impact our results of operations. Our business operations depend on, among other things, sufficient OEM orders (without suspension) from airlines and the financial resources of airlines, our suppliers, other companies and individuals.

Energy, freight, raw material and other costs have been impacted by, and may continue to be impacted by, the war in Ukraine. Prolonged global inflationary pressures have also impacted these costs in addition to increased interest costs and labor costs. In certain situations, we have the ability to recover certain abnormal inflationary impacts through contractual agreements with our customers; however, we anticipate that we will experience reduced levels of profitability related to inflationary impacts until such time as the rate of inflation subsides to normal historical levels. Our associated estimates of such costs, where applicable, use the most recent information available. The economic impact of inflation, together with the impact of increases in interest rates and actions taken to attempt to reduce inflation, may have a significant effect on the global economy, air travel, our supply chain and our customers, and, as a result, on our business.

In addition, Russia’s ~~February 2022~~ invasion of Ukraine, the resultant sanctions and other measures imposed by the U.S. and other governments, and other related impacts have resulted in economic and political uncertainty and risks. In response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and the associated U.S. sanctions, the Company suspended all sanctioned activities relating to Russia, primarily consisting of sales and service activities. In the ~~second quarter of~~twelve months ended December 31, 2022, we recorded an aggregate pre-tax loss of ~~$28.1~~$29.1 million related to adjustments of certain assets and liabilities associated with sanctioned Russian business activities. The charges are included on the ~~Condensed~~ Consolidated Statements of Operations for the ~~nine~~twelve months ended ~~September 29,~~December 31, 2022. The suspended activities' impacts to prospective revenues, net income, net assets, cash flow from operations, and the Company's Consolidated Financial Position are not material. Continuation or significant expansion of economic disruption or escalation of the conflict, or other geopolitical events of a similar nature, could have a material adverse effect on orders from our customers, the public’s ability or willingness to continue to travel, and/or our results of operations. Energy, freight, raw material and other costs have been impacted by, and may continue to be impacted by, the conflict. These costs have also been impacted by global inflationary pressures, including significant increases in inflation in many countries in which we operate. Our associated estimates of such costs, where applicable, use the most recent information available. The economic impact of inflation, together with the impact of increases in interest rates and actions taken to attempt to reduce inflation, may have a significant effect on the global economy, air travel, our supply chain and our customers, and, as a result, on our business. We continue to monitor and evaluate related risks and uncertainties, including the items discussed in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the "2021 Form 10-K").

~~COVID-19~~

~~During~~ ~~the nine months ended September 29, 2022~~,~~the~~The lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic ~~continued~~continue to have a significant negative impact on the aviation industry, our customers, and our business globally. Due to the uncertain nature of current conditions around the world, and the capability of conditions to evolve rapidly, we are unable to predict accurately the impact that COVID-19 will have on our business going ~~forward, including for the reasons stated in the 2021 Form 10-K. Our expectation is~~forward.

We expect that our ~~business operations~~operating environment will ~~not improve until our customers are willing~~continue to ~~produce aircraft at sufficient levels, which is dependent upon the public's willingness~~remain dynamic and evolve in 2023. We continue to ~~use aircraft travel, sufficient OEM orders (without suspension) from airlines~~monitor and evaluate related risks and uncertainties relating to macroeconomic conditions and the ~~financial resources of airlines, other companies~~COVID-19 pandemic, including the items discussed in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and ~~individuals.~~Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on February 17, 2023 (the "2022 Form 10-K").

B737 Program

The B737 MAX program is a critical program to the Company. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020 ~~and 2019~~ approximately 45%, 35%, ~~19%,~~ and ~~53%~~19% of our net revenues, respectively, were generated from sales of components to Boeing for the B737 ~~aircraft.~~aircraft, as compared to 53% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019, which was the most recent period to exclude impacts from the B737 MAX grounding and the COVID-19 pandemic. While we have entered into long-term supply agreements with Boeing to continue to provide components for the B737 for the life of the aircraft program, including commercial and military P-8 derivatives, Boeing does not have any obligation to purchase components from us for any replacement for the B737 that is not a commercial derivative model as defined by the Special Business Provisions and the General Terms Agreement (collectively, the “Sustaining Agreement”) between Spirit and Boeing. The Sustaining Agreement is a requirements contract and Boeing can reduce the purchase volume at any time.

In March 2019, the B737 MAX fleet was grounded in the U.S. and internationally following the 2018 and 2019 accidents involving two B737 MAX aircraft. OnIn November ~~18,~~ 2020, the FAA issued an order rescinding the grounding of the B737 MAX and published an Airworthiness Directive specifying design changes to be made before the aircraft returned to service. Boeing's deliveries of the B737 MAX resumed in the fourth quarter of 2020. Since November 2020, regulators from Brazil, Canada, the EU, U.K., India, and other countries have taken similar actions to unground the B737 MAX and permit return to service. ~~The~~Additionally, the Civil Aviation Administration of China released a report on April 14, 2023 which isconveys the ~~most significant country remaining to allow~~message that the B737 MAX to return to service, issued an airworthiness directive in December 2021, directing corrective actions necessary to allow for return to service, and held a special meeting in September 2022 to review the training specifications for the aircraft. No timetable has been ~~established for ungrounding~~reviewed and deliveries to carriers of new B737 MAX airplanes could resume. In recent months twelve Chinese carriers have resumed passenger flights on the B737 ~~MAX in China. During the nine months ended September 29, 2022,~~MAX. Boeing has continued to announce orders for the B737 MAX, and air carriers generally continued resuming flights on the aircraft.

~~Table of Contents~~

We expect that ongoing demand challenges from the B737 MAX grounding ~~will continue to be exacerbated by~~and the lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic ~~because~~will continue as other programs that mitigate the strain of the lower B737 MAX production rate are producing at lower rates. We expect that domestic air travel demand will continue to improve in the near term with international air travel demand continuing to lag behind. As a result, we expect that the B737 MAX and other narrowbody production rates will recover to pre-pandemic levels before widebody production rates. We expect that air travel demand will continue to improve from ~~2021~~2022 levels, with the overall pace of any recovery of air travel demand dependent on the availability, ~~speed and acceptance of vaccinations,~~ the occurrence and spread of continued COVID-19 mutations, the effectiveness of vaccines on new strains of the COVID-19 virus, and governmental travel restrictions. For additional information, see ~~the~~Item 1A, “Risk Factors” ~~section of our 2021~~in the 2022 Form 10-K.

The ~~737~~B737 MAX 7 and MAX 10 models are currently going through Federal Aviation Administration ~~(FAA)~~("FAA") certification activities. In December 2022, an extension for certification of these two models to December 31, 2024 was granted when the U.S. Congress passed the Fiscal Year 2023 Omnibus Appropriations Bill.If ~~our customer~~Boeing is unable to achieve certification of these models or the entry into service is inconsistent with current assumptions, future revenues, earnings and cash flows are likely to be adversely impacted.

Our preliminary assessment of the potential impact related to the notice of escapement issued to Boeing for the B737 Vertical Fin Attach Fittings related to our production cost impacts expected to be incurred will result in a total gross margin impact of approximately $31.0 million. As a component of this total preliminary estimate, and included in Note 4 Changes in Estimate, the Company has included an estimate related to the impact to production costs including factory disruption as a negative cumulative catch-up adjustment of approximately $7.0 million within its results for the period ended March 30, 2023. We expect that we will incur additional costs to resolve the quality issue related to the B737 Vertical Fin Attach Fittings, including costs our customer may assert related to the impact of completing these repairs on previously delivered units in their factory, and warranty costs related to affected B737 units in service. As a result of the current uncertainty regarding among other things, the total number of affected units, the methods of acceptable repair on completed units, the total amount of time required to complete the associated repairs, and at what point in time and what manner repairs would be completed on B737 units in service, we cannot reasonably estimate the remaining costs to be incurred relating to the B737 Vertical Fin Attach Fittings quality issue at this time.

B787 Program

In the year ended December 31, 2020, production rate decreases from our customer on the B787 program resulted in incremental forward loss charges of $192.5 million. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the combination of further production rate decreases from our customer and estimated costs of rework and engineering changes resulted in incremental forward loss charges of $153.5 million. ~~For the three and nine months~~During the year ended ~~September 29,~~December 31, 2022, our estimates for further production rate decreases and build schedule changes, supply chain costs, and other costs, including costs of rework, drove additional forward ~~losses~~loss charges of ~~$11.0~~$93.5 million. For the three months ended March 30, 2023, our updated estimates drove an additional $8.2 million of forward loss primarily related to additional labor and ~~$55.3 million on the program, respectively.~~supply chain cost growth. ~~Changes~~Additional production rate changes, changes in cost assessments, claims, labor work stoppages, or changes to the scope of quality issues and any associated rework, ~~may~~could result in an incremental increase or decrease to the total estimated loss provision. ~~Additionally, production rate changes, changes in cost assessments, or claims could result in additional incremental forward loss charges.~~ See also Note 20 Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees.

Airbus Programs

In the year ended December 31, 2020, the A350 program recorded forward loss charges of $147.9 million associated with customer driven production rate changes. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the A350 program recorded forward loss charges of $55.2 million related to customer driven production rate changes and quality-related costs. The A350 program recorded additional forward loss charges of $105.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 related to estimated quality-related costs, non-recurring engineering and tooling costs, and additional labor, freight, and other cost requirements driven by parts shortages, production and quality issues, and customer production rate changes. For the three months ended March 30, 2023, our updated estimates drove a $15.8 million incremental estimated forward loss driven by the impact of schedule changes and other supply chain cost growth.

The A220 wing program recorded additional forward losses of $25 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, primarily related to the bankruptcy of a supplier and associated failure to deliver key parts on the program. For the three months ended March 30, 2023, our updated estimates drove a $80.9 million incremental estimated forward loss on the A220 wing program, driven by estimated supply chain costs including certain non-recurring cost estimates, schedule changes, and foreign exchange headwinds.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Goodwill

Goodwill is assessed for impairment annually on the first day of the fourth quarter, or whenever events or circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the estimated fair value of a reporting unit is below its carrying value.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, in accordance with our annual assessment policy, we opted to bypass the qualitative assessment and performed a quantitative assessment to test goodwill for impairment.

As part of our impairment assessment, we utilized a third-party to assist us with estimating the fair value of each of our respective reporting units under both the income approach and the market approach with equal weighing applied to the results of each approach. These approaches require making assumptions regarding long-term growth rates, revenue and earnings projections, estimation of cash flows, discount rates, and market and company-specific factors.

The results of our annual assessment indicated that the fair value substantially exceeded the carrying value for each reporting unit, and as a result, no impairment existed as of the annual assessment date during the fourth quarter of 2022. Further, we have not identified any indications of impairment that would prompt an interim impairment assessment for the quarter ended March 30, 2023.

~~(1)~~ Beginning in 2022, A220 deliveries reflect the number of wing end item deliveries instead of pylon end item deliveries, as previously reported. A220 deliveries for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 have been updated to reflect wing units.

(1) For purposes of measuring production or shipset deliveries for Boeing aircraft in a given period, the term “shipset” refers to sets of structural fuselage components produced or delivered for one aircraft in such period. For purposes of measuring production or shipset deliveries for Airbus A220 aircraft in a given period, the term “shipset” refers to sets of structural wing components produced or delivered for one aircraft in such period. For purposes of measuring production or shipset deliveries for all other Airbus and Business/Regional Jet aircraft in a given period, the term “shipset” refers to all structural aircraft components produced or delivered for one aircraft in such period. Other components that are part of the same aircraft shipsets could be produced or shipped in earlier or later accounting periods than the components used to measure production or shipset deliveries, which may result in slight variations in production or delivery quantities of the various shipset components in any given period.

Changes in Estimates

During the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2022,~~2023, we recognized unfavorable changes in estimates of ~~$54.0~~$121.9 million, which included net forward loss charges of ~~$49.1~~$110.0 million, and unfavorable cumulative catch-up adjustments related to periods prior to the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2022~~2023 of ~~$4.9~~$11.9 million. The forward losses in the ~~third~~first quarter were primarily driven by ~~losses~~estimated supply chain costs including certain non-recurring cost estimates, schedule changes, and foreign exchange headwinds on the ~~A350, B787,~~A220 program, schedule changes and ~~RB3070 programs. Increased~~other supply chain cost ~~estimates for production~~growth on the A350 program, ~~resulted in a forward loss reflecting~~ additional labor ~~freight,~~ and ~~other~~supply chain cost ~~requirements driven by parts shortages and production and quality issues. The~~growth on the B787 program, ~~forward loss was driven by~~and increased cost ~~estimates for supply chain, rework, and fixed cost absorption. The RB3070 nacelle program forward loss taken this quarter was driven by increased engineering cost estimates. To a lesser extent,~~projections on the ~~B767,~~ ~~KC-46 Tanker,~~ ~~and A330 programs each had adjustments to increase the forward loss charges in the~~ ~~third quarter of 2022~~.CL650 program.

During the same period in the prior year, we recognized total unfavorable changes in estimates of ~~$73.2~~$50.0 million, which included net forward loss charges of ~~$70.4~~$23.8 million, and unfavorable cumulative catch-up adjustments related to periods prior to the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2020~~2022 of ~~$2.8~~$26.2 million.

Three Months Ended ~~September 29, 2022~~March 30, 2023 as Compared to Three Months Ended ~~September 30, 2021~~March 31, 2022

Revenue. Net revenue for the three months ended ~~September 29, 2022~~March 30, 2023 was ~~$1,276.9~~$1,431.4 million, an increase of ~~$296.9~~$256.7 million, or ~~30.3%~~21.9%, compared to net revenue of ~~$980.0~~$1,174.7 million for the same period in the prior year. The increase in revenue was primarily driven by increased Commercial Segment production on the B737 MAX program in the current year period. To a lesser extent, the B777, A320, B787, and A350 programs each drove increased revenue period over period in the Commercial Segment, Boeing ~~P-8 and Sikorsky programs each drove increased revenue period over period in the Defense Segment, and our Aftermarket Segment sales also increased period over period. These increases were~~deliveries partially offset by ~~decreased B747 program revenues~~a decrease in ~~the Commercial Segment and decreased KC-46 Tanker revenue in the Defense Segment versus the prior year period.~~Airbus deliveries. Approximately 83% and ~~79%~~81% of Spirit’s net revenues for the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021,~~2022, respectively, came from our two largest customers, Boeing and Airbus.

Total deliveries to Boeing increased to 90116 shipsets during the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2022,~~2023, compared to 6877 shipsets delivered in the same period of the prior year, primarily driven by ~~increased~~the continued production onramp up of the B737 ~~MAX program.~~program along with additional B787 deliveries. Total deliveries to Airbus ~~increased~~decreased to 176 shipsets during the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2022,~~2023, compared to ~~130~~194 shipsets delivered in the same period of the prior year, primarily driven by ~~increased~~customer driven schedule changes and production ~~on the A320 program.~~delays. Deliveries for business/regional jet components remained flat with 5054 shipsets delivered during the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2022,~~2023, compared to 50 shipsets delivered in the same period of the prior year. In total, deliveries increased to ~~316~~346 shipsets during the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2022,~~2023, compared to ~~248~~321 shipsets delivered in the same period of the prior year.

Gross (Loss) Profit. Gross ~~profit~~loss was ~~$82.9~~$0.8 million for the three months ended ~~September 29, 2022,~~March 30, 2023, compared to gross ~~loss~~profit of ~~($56.2)~~$34.8 million for the same period in the prior year. The ~~increase~~decrease in profit from the prior year period was primarily driven by ~~Commercial Segment results, which included~~higher gross profit ~~on the increased B737 MAX production revenue mentioned above and a lower forward loss charge than the same period~~from additional Boeing deliveries offset by higher negative changes in estimates in the ~~prior year on~~first quarter of 2023 and the ~~B787 program. These increases~~absence of income related to ~~profit were partially offset by~~ the ~~impact of a greater forward loss charge~~Aviation Manufacturing Jobs Protection ("AMJP") Program that was recognized in the ~~current year period, relative to the prior year period, on the A350 program and a forward loss charge taken in the current year period on the RB3070 nacelle business jet program.~~first quarter of 2022. In the Defense Segment, the impact of increased classified program profit and the current year absence of a forward loss charge taken in the prior year on the Bell V-280 OTA program were partially offset by margin deterioration, relative to the prior year period, on the Sikorsky CH-53K program. Additionally, the increased profit from the same period in the prior year included greater profit on non-recurring Commercial Segment contracts, greater profit on Aftermarket Segment sales, lower warranty expense, and lower excess capacity production costs in the current year period. In the thirdfirst quarter of ~~2022,~~2023, we recognized ~~$31.4~~$43.3 million of excess capacity production costs driven by production schedule changes on B737 MAX, A220 and A320 programs ~~and $0.3 million net workforce adjustments as a result of COVID-19,~~ compared to prior year excess capacity cost of ~~$57.1~~$49.8 million and abnormal costs related to workforce adjustments, net of the U.S. employee retention credit and U.K. government subsidies, of ~~$2.6~~$9.5 million. In the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2022,~~2023, we recognized ~~$4.9~~$11.9 million of unfavorable cumulative catch-up adjustments related to periods prior to the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2022,~~2023, and ~~$49.1~~$110.0 million of net forward loss charges. As mentioned in the Changes in Estimates section above, the forward losses recorded in the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2022~~2023 were driven by ~~increased~~estimated supply chain costs including certain non-recurring cost estimates, ~~for production~~schedule changes, and foreign exchange headwinds on the A220 program, schedule changes and other supply chain cost growth on the A350 program, ~~increased engineering~~additional labor and supply chain cost ~~estimates~~growth on the ~~RB3070~~B787 program, and increased cost ~~estimates for supply chain, rework, and fixed cost absorption~~projections on the ~~B787~~CL650 program.

SG&A and Research and Development. Current period SG&A was ~~lower~~higher than in the prior year period by ~~$17.7~~$12.9 million, primarily due to ~~a net $26.6 million charge to SG&A in the prior year period related to a court ruling.

The variance reflects the ~~increased~~decreased gross profit on sales and ~~changes to~~increases in restructuring costs and SG&A ~~costs, and research and development~~ costs mentioned above.

Interest Expense and Financing Fee Amortization. Interest expense and financing fee amortization for the three months ended ~~September 29, 2022 decreased $2~~March 30, 2023 increased $13.5 million compared to the same period in the prior year, driven by ~~the impact of~~higher interest rates offset by lower interest expense on the repayable investment agreement with ~~BEIS~~the Department for Business, Energy, and Industrial Strategy of the Government of the United Kingdom which was in place in the prior year period but fully settled ~~prior to the current year period. See also Note 21~~ ~~Other Income (Expense), Net~~.in 2022. The three months ended ~~September 29, 2022~~March 30, 2023 includes ~~$51.3~~$66.6 million of interest and fees paid or accrued in connection with long-term debt and ~~$1.9 milli~~on $1.8 million in amortization of deferred financing costs and original issue discount, compared to ~~$47.6~~$48.1 million of interest and ~~fees~~fees paid or accrued in connection with long-term debt and ~~$2.2~~$1.9 million in amortization of deferred financing costs and original issue discount for the same period in the prior year.

Other (Expense) Income, net. Other expense, net for the three months ended ~~September 29, 2022~~March 30, 2023 was ($~~42.1)~~117.4) million, compared to other income of ~~$94.8~~$37.7 million for the same period in the prior year, an increase in expense of ~~$136.9~~$155.1 million. The increase in other expense primarily reflects a net foreign currency exchange loss of ($8.5) million in the current period, versus a gain of $14.9 million in the same period of the prior year, increased excise tax of ($35.9) million related to a pension plan assets reversion in the current period and net pension related expense in the current year period of ~~$(56.4)~~($62.7) million versus net pension related income of $84.8 million in the prior year period. The respective pension income/expense values are separately driven by special accounting impacts related to pension plan termination activities that were respectively undertaken in each period. See also Note 16 ~~Pension and Other Post-Retirement Benefits~~. A gain of $10.0 million related to the termination of a joint venture agreement, increased loss on foreign currency forward contracts relative to the prior year period, and increased net loss on sale of receivables drive the remaining variance. ~~See also Note 21~~ ~~Other Income (Expense), Net~~.

~~Provision for Income Taxes~~. Our reported tax rate includes two principal components: an expected annual tax rate and discrete items resulting in additional provisions or benefits that are recorded in the quarter that an event arises.Events or items that could give rise to discrete recognition include excess tax benefit in respect of share-based compensation, finalizing audit examinations for open tax years, statute of limitations expiration, or a change in tax law.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future income tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts for existing asset and liabilities and their respective tax bases.~~A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce deferred income tax assets to an amount that in management’s opinion will ultimately be realized.~~We have reviewed our material deferred tax assets to determine whether or not a valuation allowance was necessary. Based on evaluation of both the positive and negative evidence available, management determined that it was necessary to continue to maintain a valuation allowance against nearly all of its net U.S. and U.K. deferred tax assets as of September 29, 2022. The net valuation allowance was increased by $48.5 million in the U.S. and increased by $15.0 million in the U.K. for the three months ended September 29, 2022.

The income tax expense for the three months ended September 29, 2022 includes $19.6 million for federal taxes, $4.3 million for state taxes and $9.0 million for foreign taxes. The income tax provision for the three months ended September 30, 2021 includes ($6.4) million for federal taxes, ($0.9) million for state taxes and ($0.6) million for foreign taxes. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 29, 2022 is (34.73%) as compared to 6.6% for the same period in 2021. As we are reporting a pre-tax loss for the three months ended September 29, 2022, an increase in the effective tax rate results in an increase of income tax benefits while a decrease in the rate results in a reduction of income tax benefits.

The decrease from the U.S. statutory tax rate (resulting in tax expense, given the loss and the negative rate) is attributable primarily to the increase of valuation allowances, partially offset by state and R&D credits generated, net of valuation allowance.

Commercial segment, Defense & Space segment, and Aftermarket segment represented approximately 81%, 13%, and 6%, respectively, of our net revenues for the three months ended September 29, 2022 and approximately ~~80%, 14%, and 6%, respectively, of our net revenues for the three months ended~~ ~~September 30, 2021~~.

~~Commercial segment.~~ Commercial segment net revenues for the three months ended September 29, 2022 were $1,034.9 million, an increase of $250.8 million, or 32%, compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in revenues was primarily driven by increased production on the B737 program versus the prior year period. To a lesser extent, the period over period revenue variance in the Commercial Segment reflects increased production revenues on the B777, A320, B787, and A350 programs, which were partially offset by lower B747 program production revenues and lower business jet program revenues in the current year period.

Commercial segment operating margins were 4% for the three months ended September 29, 2022, compared to (9%) for the same period in the prior year. The margin increase for the three months ended September 29, 2022, as compared to the prior year period, was driven by the impact of profit on increased B737 production revenue and a lower forward loss charge than the same period in the prior year on the B787 program. These increases to margin were partially offset by the impact of a greater forward loss charge in the current year period, relative to the prior year period, on the A350 S15 program and a forward loss charge taken in the current year period on the RB3070 nacelle business jet program. The results also include lower warranty expense and lower excess capacity costs, workforce adjustment costs, and restructuring costs in the current period. In the third quarter of 2022, the segment recorded~~unfavorable c~~umulative catch-up adjustments of $6.9 million and net forward loss charges of $47.4 million. In comparison, during the third quarter of 2021, the segment recorded unfavorable cumulative catch-up adjustments of $3.4 million and net forward loss charges of $61.5 million. For the three months ended September 29, 2022, the Commercial segment included $29.9 million of excess capacity production costs, $0.3 million net workforce adjustments as a result of COVID-19, and no net restructuring and other costs, compared with excess capacity costs of $54.8 million, net workforce reductions of $2.6 million, and restructuring costs of $0.7 million for the same period in the prior year.

~~Defense & Space segment.~~ Defense & Space segment net revenues for the three months ended September 29, 2022 were $161.7 million, an increase of $23.9 million, or 17%, compared to the same period in the prior year. The variance from the prior year period includes the impact of increased production revenue on the Boeing P-8 and Sikorsky programs, increased non-recurring Defense Segment program revenues and greater sales of high-temperature materials and composites from our Fiber Materials Inc. subsidiary, partially offset by decreased KC-46 Tanker revenue in the current year period.

Defense & Space segment operating margins increased to 11% for the three months ended September 29, 2022, compared to 6% for the same period in the prior year. The increase in margin over the prior year period was driven by the impact of profit

~~Table of Contents~~

on increased Boeing P-8 production revenue, increased classified program profit, and the current year absence of a forward loss charge taken in the prior year on the Bell V-280 OTA program. These increases to margin were partially offset by margin deterioration in the current year period on the Sikorsky CH-53K program. For the three months ended September 29, 2022 the Defense & Space segment included $1.5 million of excess capacity production costs, compared with excess capacity costs of $2.3 million, and restructuring costs of $0.1 million for the same period in the prior year. The segment recorded ~~favorable~~ cumulative catch-up adjustments of $2.0 million for the three months ended September 29, 2022. The segment recorded net forward loss charges of $1.7 million for the three months ended September 29, 2022. In comparison, during the same period of the prior year, the segment recorded net favorable cumulative catch-up adjustments of $0.6 million and net forward loss charges of ~~$8.9~~ ~~million.~~

~~Aftermarket.~~ Aftermarket segment net revenues for the three months ended September 29, 2022 were $80.3 million, an increase of $22.2 million, or 38%, compared to the same period in the prior year. Aftermarket segment operating margins were 24% for the three months ended September 29, 2022, compared to 14% for the same period in the prior year. Higher margins were seen on both increased spare part sales and increased maintenance, repair, and overhaul ("MRO") sales activity compared to the same period in the prior year. For the three months ended September 29, 2022 the Aftermarket segment includes no net restructuring and other costs, compared with restructuring costs of $0.0 million for the same period in the prior year.

~~Nine Months Ended September 29, 2022 as Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021~~

~~Revenue.~~ Net revenue for the nine months ended September 29, 2022 was $3,709.5 million, an increase of $826.6 million, or 28.7%, compared to net revenue of $2,882.9 million for the same period in the prior year. The increase in revenue was primarily driven by increased Commercial Segment production on the B737 MAX program in the current year period. The remaining increase to prior year revenue included greater Commercial Segment revenues on A220, A320, business jet and B777 programs, partially offset by a decrease in revenue on the B787 and B747 programs, increased Defense Segment Boeing P-8 production revenue relative to the prior year to date period, and greater Aftermarket Segment sales relative to the prior year period. Approximately 82% an~~d 79% of Spirit’s net revenues for the~~ ~~nine months ended September 29, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively, came from our two largest customers, Boeing and Airbus.~~

~~Total deliveries to Boeing increased to 256 shipsets during~~ ~~the~~ nine months ended September 29, 2022, compared to 191 shipsets delivered in the same period of the prior year, primarily driven by increased B737 deliveries. Total deliveries to Airbus increased to 550 shipsets during ~~the~~ nine months ended September 29, 2022, compared to 415 shipsets delivered in the same period of the prior year, primarily driven by more A320 deliveries in the current year period. Deliveries for business/regional jet components increased to 149 shipsets during ~~the~~ ~~nine months ended September 29, 2022, compared to 139 shipsets delivered in the same period of the prior year. In total, deliveries increased to 955 shipsets during~~ ~~the~~ ~~nine months ended September 29, 2022, compared to 745 shipsets delivered in the same period of the prior year.~~

~~Gross (Loss) Profit.~~ Gross profit was $98.1 million for the nine months ended September 29, 2022, compared to gross loss of ($126.5) million for the same period in the prior year. The $224.6 million increase in profit from the prior year period was primarily driven by Commercial Segment results, which included profit on the increased B737 MAX production revenue mentioned above and a lower forward loss charge than the same period in the prior year on the B787 program. The Commercial Segment also includes the impact of margin deterioration, relative to the prior year period, on the A320, A220, and RB3070 programs. In the Defense Segment, the impact of a lower forward loss charge, relative to the same period in the prior year, on the Bell V-280 OTA program and profit recognized on the increased Boeing P-8 production revenue, mentioned above, drove increased gross profit. The variance in profit from the prior year period also includes the impact of higher COVID related costs in the current year period and the charge, mentioned above, in the second quarter of 2022 in relation to the suspension of activities related to customers in Russia. These increased costs were offset by increased profit on Aftermarket Segment sales, lower excess capacity costs driven by increased production during the current year period on B737 MAX, A220 and A320 programs, and the impact of recognition of the Aviation Manufacturing Jobs Protection Program award, which was awarded in the second half of 2021 and was amortized as a reduction to cost of sales through the applicable production period that included the first three months of the current year. In the nine months ended September 29, 2022, we recognized $126.1 million of excess capacity production costs driven by production schedule changes on B737 MAX, A220 and A320 programs, and $9.8 million of net workforce adjustments as a result of COVID-19, compared to prior year excess capacity cost of $172.2 million and abnormal costs related to workforce adjustments of $7.1 million. In the nine months ended September 29, 2022, we recognized $26.2 million of ~~unfavorable cum~~ulative catch-up adjustments related to periods prior to the nine months ended September 29, 2022, and $136.6 million of net forward loss charges. In the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we recorded $2.5 million of unfavorable cumulative catch-up adjustments related to periods prior to the nine months ended September 30, 2021, and $195.0 million of net forward loss charges.

~~Table of Contents~~

~~SG&A and Research and Development.~~ SG&A expense was $7.5 million lower for the nine months ended September 29, 2022, compared to the same period in the prior year. The comparative impact of a net $26.6 million charge to SG&A in the prior year period related to a court ruling was partially offset by increased labor and administrative activity, relative to the prior year period, for the nine months ended September 29, 2022. Greater research and development activity is reflected in research and development expense that was $2.2 million higher for the nine months ended September 29, 2022, as compared to the same period in the prior year.

~~Restructuring Costs.~~ Restructuring costs of $0.2 million for cost-alignment and headcount reductions as a result of B737 MAX grounding and COVID-19 impacts decreased $7.9 million for the nine months ended September 29, 2022, compared to the same period in the prior year. The variance reflects the relatively higher cost-alignment and headcount reduction activity seen in the prior year period.

~~Operating (Loss) Income.~~ Operating loss for the nine months ended September 29, 2022 was ($142.4) million, an improvement of $237.8 million, compared to operating loss of ($380.2) million for the same period in the prior year. The improvement reflects the increased gross profit and changes to restructuring costs, SG&A costs, and research and development costs mentioned above.

~~Interest Expense and Financing Fee Amortization.~~ Interest expense and financing fee amortization for the nine months ended September 29, 2022 decreased $6.9 million compared to the same period in the prior year, driven by lower interest expense on the repayable investment agreement with BEIS which was in place in the prior year period but fully settled during the current period (see Note 21 ~~Other Income (Expense), Net). The nine months ended September 29, 2022 includes~~ ~~$148.9~~ ~~million of interest and fees paid or accrued in connection with long-term debt and~~ ~~$5.7~~ million in amortization of deferred financing costs and original issue discount, compared to $143.9 million of interest and fees paid or accrued in connection with long-term debt and $6.8 million in amortization of deferred financing costs and original issue discount for the same period in the prior year. See also Note 15 ~~Debt~~.

~~Other (Expense) Income, net.~~ ~~Other income, net for the nine months ended September 29, 2022 was $30.2 million, compared to a net income of $138.7 million for the same period in the prior year. The decrease in other income reflects net pension related expense in the current year period of $(15.1) million versus net pension related income of $137.3~~$23.2 million in the prior year period. The respective pension income/expense values are separately driven by special accounting impacts related to pension plan termination activities that were respectively undertaken in each period. See also Note 16 Pension and Other Post-Retirement Benefits. ~~The increase in other income also reflects a gain in the current period on~~ ~~the settlement of the repayable investment agreement with BEIS (see Note 21~~ ~~Other Income (Expense), Net)~~, ~~relatively higher foreign currency gains in the current year period, and~~ ~~a gain related to the termination of a joint venture agreement in the current year period. These increases to income were partially offset by losses in the current period related to settlement of hedged foreign currency exchange contracts (see Note 14~~ ~~Derivative and Hedging Activities), increased excise tax related to a pension~~ ~~plan assets reversion in the current period (see Note 16~~ ~~Pension and Other Post-Retirement Benefit~~s~~), and increased loss on sale of receivables as compared to the prior year period (see Note 5~~ ~~Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses~~).

Provision for Income Taxes~~Taxes.~~ . Our reported tax rate includes two principal components: an expected annual tax rate and discrete items resulting in additional provisions or benefits that are recorded in the quarter that an event arises. Events or items that could give rise to discrete recognition include excess tax benefit in respect of share-based compensation, finalizing audit examinations for open tax years, statute of limitations expiration, or a change in tax law.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future income tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts for existing ~~asset~~assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce deferred income tax assets to an amount that in management’s opinion will ultimately be realized. We have reviewed our material deferred tax assets to determine whether or not a valuation allowance was necessary. Based on evaluation of both the positive and negative evidence available, management determined that it was necessary to continue to maintain a valuation allowance against nearly all of its net U.S. and U.K. deferred tax assets as of ~~September 29, 2022.~~March 30, 2023. The net valuation allowance was increased by ~~$92.1~~$32.1 million in the U.S. and increased by ~~$19.2~~$18.7 million in the U.K. for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 29, 2022.~~March 30, 2023.

The income tax ~~expense~~provision for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 29, 2022~~March 30, 2023 includes ~~$14.2~~$2.2 million for federal taxes, ~~$2.2~~($4.2) million for state taxes and ~~$2.0~~($2.3) million for foreign taxes. The income tax provision for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2021~~March 31, 2022 includes ~~($18.7)~~$5.9 million for federal taxes, ~~$17.9~~($6.5) million for state taxes and ~~$0.2~~($10.4) million for foreign taxes. The effective tax rate for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 29, 2022~~March 30, 2023 is ~~(6.49%)~~1.5% as compared to ~~0.15%~~17.4% for the same period in ~~2021.~~2022. As we are reporting a pre-tax loss for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 29, 2022,~~ March 30, 2023, an increase in the effective tax rate results in an increase of income tax benefits while a decrease in the rate results in a reduction of income tax ~~benefits~~benefits.

The decrease from the U.S. statutory tax rate is attributable primarily to nondeductible interest expense, nondeductible excise tax, valuation allowances on deferred tax assets, and foreign rate differences, partially offset by state credits generated, net of valuation allowance.

Commercial segment, Defense & Space segment, and Aftermarket segment represented approximately ~~81%~~80%, 13%, and 6%7%, respectively, of our net revenues for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 29, 2022~~March 30, 2023 and approximately ~~79%~~80%, ~~15%~~13%, and 6%7%, respectively, of our net revenues for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2021~~March 31, 2022.

Commercial segment. Commercial segment net revenues for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 29, 2022~~March 30, 2023 were ~~$3,004.4~~$1,148.5 million, an increase of ~~$720.6~~$210.1 million, or ~~32%~~22%, compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in revenues was primarily driven by increased ~~production on the B737 MAX program~~deliveries to Boeing in the current ~~year~~ period. The remaining increase to prior year revenue included greater revenues on increased A220, A320, business jet, B777, and A350 programs production, partially offset by a decrease in revenue on the B787 and B747 programs, and lower net non-recurring program revenues.

Commercial segment operating margins were 0%(4%) for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 29, 2022,~~March 30, 2023, compared to ~~(9%)~~0% for the same period in the prior year. The ~~increase in~~ margin ~~compared to~~decrease for the ~~same period in the prior year, was driven by the incremental margin impact of the greater volume of B737 program sales, lower forward losses relative~~three months ended March 30, 2023, as compared to the prior year period, ~~on the B787 production program, and lower excess capacity costs and restructuring costs~~was driven by higher gross profit from additional Boeing deliveries offset by higher negative changes in estimates in the ~~current period. To a lesser extent, the variance includes the relative impact~~first quarter of ~~lower forward losses on the A350 program, offset by margin deterioration on the A320, A220, RB3070, and Bombardier business jet programs versus~~2023 as compared to the prior ~~year period.

For the three months ended September 29, 2022 also includes the impact of $23.9 million of the charge, mentioned above, in relation to the suspension of activities related to customers in Russia due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and the associated sanctions. For the nine months ended September 29, 2022,March 30, 2023, the Commercial segment included ~~$119.8~~$40.9 million of excess capacity production costs ~~$9.8~~and $5.4 million of net ~~workforce adjustments as a result of COVID-19, and ($25.5) million, net, of~~ restructuring and other costs, ~~including partial offset related to the Aviation Manufacturing Jobs Protection Program grant of ($28.4) million.~~ compared with excess capacity costs of ~~$163.4~~$46.8 million, net workforce reductions of ~~$7.1~~$9.5 million, and restructuring costs of ~~$6.9~~$0.2 million for the same period in the prior year. ~~For~~Income related to the ~~nine months ended September 29, 2022,~~AMJP Program of $28.4 million was recognized as a reduction to cost of sales in the ~~segment recorded unfavorable cumulative catch-up adjustments~~first quarter of $27.8 million and net forward loss charges of $132.6 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We assess our liquidity in terms of our ability to generate cash to fund our operating, investing, and financing activities. Our principal ~~source~~sources of liquidity isare operating cash flows from continuing operations and borrowings to finance our business operations. Our operating cash flows from continuing operations have been adversely impacted by, among other things, the B737 MAX grounding, the COVID-19 pandemic, production rate changes for the B737 MAX program and other programs, supply chain disruptions, labor shortages and cost increases affecting our business. We expect those adverse impacts to continue for ~~the remainder of 2022~~2023 and beyond. In addition, we will incur additional cash costs during 2023 related to the quality issue related to the B737 Vertical Fin Attach Fittings, including costs of completing repairs on previously delivered units and warranty costs related to affected B737 units in service. As a result of the current uncertainty regarding the total number of affected units, the methods of acceptable repair on completed units, the total amount of time required to complete the associated repairs, and at what point in time and what manner repairs would be completed on B737 units in service, we cannot reasonably estimate the total cash costs at this time. For purposes of assessing our liquidity needs in this section, we have assumed that Boeing would not further reduce the B737 MAX production rate and that other customers generally would not further reduce their production rates.For risks that may affect that assumption, see Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our 2022 Form 10-K.

After the balance sheet date of March 30, 2023, Spirit entered into agreements with certain customers to provide $280.0 million of cash advances, based upon certain agreed upon performance criteria, which Spirit expects to receive in the second and fourth quarters of 2023. We expect these advances to be accounted for as financing cash flows.

As of ~~September 29, 2022~~March 30, 2023, our debt balance was ~~$3,783.4~~$3,870.9 million, including ~~$355.4~~$55.1 million of debt classified as short-term. As of ~~September 29, 2022~~March 30, 2023, we had ~~$670.5~~$567.8 million of cash and cash equivalents on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, which reflects a decrease of ~~$808.1~~$90.8 million from the cash and cash equivalents balance of ~~$1,478.6~~$658.6 million as of December 31, ~~2021.~~

2022.

Based on current operating trends and the receipt of the cash advances referred to above, we believe our cash on hand and cash flows generated from operations, together with other sources of liquidity and our ability to vary our cost structure, ~~quickly,~~ will provide sufficient liquidity for the next twelve months and for the foreseeable future beyond the next twelve months. Beyond the next twelve months, this belief assumes that we will be able to refinance our indebtedness at or prior to maturity with new borrowings or other sources of liquidity. Limitations on our ability to access the capital or credit markets, the cost impacts of additional production rate changes or quality issues, difficulty with managing costs due to labor shortages, supply chain disruptions, inflation or other factors, or unfavorable terms or general reductions in liquidity, may adversely and materially impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations, and prevent us from being able to meet our obligations as they become due. There can be no assurance that we will be able to access the capital or credit markets or, if we do have such access, that it will be on favorable terms.

As noted in our 2022 Form 10-K, approximately 55% of our U.S. employees are represented by an agreement with the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM) pursuant to an agreement that expires in June 2023. If we were unable to renew our agreement with the IAM, or if our employees were to engage in a strike, work stoppage or other slowdown, our business would be impacted and those impacts would be material if any such disruption continued for a significant period of time. Impacts of a significant disruption would include our inability to deliver products to our customers on a timely basis and produce the operating cash flow to provide sufficient liquidity to fund our operating, investing, and financing activities. Impacts of a disruption could also include breaches of our supply agreements and other contractual obligations, a loss of business, an increase in our operating expenses, and defaults under the instruments governing our indebtedness, each of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, any new labor agreement with the IAM will increase our operating expenses, and that increase could be material, which would create further difficulties in managing our operating cash flow. Our statement that we believe our cash on hand and cash flows generated from operations, together with other sources of liquidity and our ability to vary our cost structure, will

Table of Contents

provide sufficient liquidity for the next twelve months and for the foreseeable future beyond the next twelve months is based on the assumption that we will reach a new labor agreement with the IAM that incorporates manageable additional compensation expenses.

Further, we have experienced, and could continue to experience, significant fluctuations in our cash flows from period to period, particularly during the continued uncertainty in the timing of the aviation industry recovery and the current challenging macroeconomic environment. We use our cash for many activities, including operations, capital expenditures, debt service, working capital, and M&A integration activities. While we may be able to modify, defer or eliminate some of these uses to manage our cash consumption, other uses are relatively fixed and are difficult to modify in the short-term.

~~As of September 29, 2022, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants in the agreements governing our indebtedness.~~

In connection with the Company’s acquisition of select assets of Bombardier aerostructures and aftermarket services businesses on October 30, 2020, the Company acquired certain liabilities as previously disclosed including financial payment obligation under a repayable investment agreement with the U.K.'s Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy. The repayable investment obligation, which was denominated in GBP, was included on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2021, as $41.7 million recorded to other current liabilities and $301.9 million recorded to Other non-current liabilities. In January 2022, the Company made repayments of $25.6 million to the UK’s Department for Business Energy and Industrial Strategy for units sold, including interest, in respect to the agreement. In April 2022, the deed of release settled the remaining outstanding repayment obligation in exchange for a payment of $292.8 million. The portion of the payments related to interest expense and the portion of the payments related to principal repayment are included in net cash used in operating activities and net cash used in financing activities, respectively, on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the period ended September 29, 2022.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Department of Transportation approved our grant claim of $75.5 million filed under the Aviation Manufacturing Jobs Protection Program, a component of the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021. As of September 29, 2022, we have received the full amount approved of $75.5 million. See also Note 5 ~~Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses~~.

We have agreements to sell, on a revolving basis, certain trade accounts receivable balances with Boeing, Airbus, and Rolls-Royce to third-party financial institutions. These programs were primarily entered into as a result of Boeing and Airbus seeking payment term extensions with us, and they continue to allow us to monetize the receivables prior to their payment date, subject to payment of a discount. Our ability to continue using such agreements is primarily dependent upon the strength of Boeing’s, Airbus’s, and Rolls-Royce's financial condition. If any of these financial institutions involved with these arrangements experiences financial difficulties, becomes unwilling to support Boeing, Airbus, or Rolls-Royce due to a deterioration in their financial condition or otherwise, or is otherwise unable to honor the terms of the factoring arrangements, we may experience significant disruption and potential liquidity issues, which could have an adverse impact upon our operating results, financial condition and cash flows. For the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 29, 2022, $2,083.0~~March 30, 2023, $849.4 million of accounts receivable were sold via these arrangements.

Customer Advances

After the balance sheet date of March 30, 2023, we entered into agreements with certain customers to provide cash advances, based upon certain agreed upon performance criteria, which we expect to receive in the second and fourth quarters of 2023. We will receive advances of $230.0 million in the second quarter, $180.0 of which is from Boeing.

Operating Activities. For the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 29, 2022,~~March 30, 2023, we had a net cash outflow of ~~$367.4~~$46.2 million from operating activities, ~~an increase~~a decrease in net outflow of ~~$380.7~~$224 million compared to a net cash ~~inflow~~outflow of ~~$13.3~~$270.2 million for the same period in the prior year. The ~~increase~~decrease in net cash outflow, ~~period~~period over period, primarily represents ~~working capital growth associated with increased production activities as compared to~~ the ~~prior year, and a $227.9 million income tax refund received in the prior year period. The cash outflows from working capital growth offset the impact of comparatively greater earnings and the~~excess pension plan asset reversion to cash discussed in Note 16 Pension and Other Post-Retirement ~~Benefits~~Benefits.

. The variance to the prior year period also includes cash repayments of $92.3 million made in the current year of the advance payment received from Boeing on the B737 program, and the interest payment associated with the settlement of the repayable investment agreement

~~As disclosed in the Company's 2021 Form 10-K, effective~~Effective October 1, 2021, we spun off a portion of the existing Pension Value Plan ("PVP A"), to a new plan called PVP B.B ("PVP B"). As part of the PVP B plan termination process, a lump sum offering was provided during 2021 for PVP B participants and the final asset distribution was completed in the first quarter of 2022. At ~~September 29,~~March 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022,~~, a~~ an excess pension plan asset reversion ~~asset~~ of ~~$70.7~~$60.5 million and $71.1 million is recorded on the Restricted plan assets line item on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Restricted plan assets are expected to be reduced over ~~the next~~ seven years as ~~amounts~~they are distributed to employees under a qualified ~~compensation and~~ benefit program.

Separately, during the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September 29, 2022,~~March 30, 2023, we ~~withdrew $34.0~~received an excess plan asset reversion of $179.5 million of cash from PVP ~~B, which represented an excess plan assets reversion.~~A. This transaction was accounted for as a negative contribution, and is included on the Pension plans employer contributions line item on the ~~Condensed~~ Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 29, 2022.~~March 30, 2023. Excise tax of ~~$6.8~~$35.9 million related to the reversion of excess plan assets was separately recorded to the Other income (expense), net line item on the ~~Condensed~~ Consolidated Statements of Operations for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 29, 2022.~~March 30, 2023. See also Note 2123 Other Income (Expense), ~~Net.~~Net to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I of this Quarterly Report for more information.

InAs disclosed in the Company's 2022 Form 10-K, in July 2022 the Company adopted and communicated to participants a plan to terminate PVP A. In the ~~Company's Pension Value Plan A ("PVP A"). As further described in the Company's 2021 Form 10-K, the PVP A consists~~first quarter of pension plans which were frozen as of the date Holdings became a standalone company and commenced operations. During the three months ended September 29, 2022, the PVP A plan was amended, providing for an enhancement to benefits2023, the Company ~~is providing to certain U.S. employees in conjunction with the plan termination. The estimated liability impact of this plan amendment, $71.7 million, was~~ recognized ~~immediately as a non-cash, pre-tax non-operating charge for amortization of prior service costs. See also Note 16~~ ~~Pension and Other Post-Retirement Benefits~~. In connection with the special accounting related to the termination of the PVP A plan, mentioned above, a subsequent interim measurement of the Company's U.S. pension and other postretirement plan assets and obligations was completed during the three months ended September 29, 2022. The interim measurement included the estimated impact of the plan termination liability and enhanced benefits liability noted above and resulted in an adjustment of $134.4 million to the ~~Accumulated other comprehensive loss~~ line item in the Stockholders' Equity section of the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet for the period ended September 29, 2022, net of the current period settlement loss and amortization of prior service cost impacts included in Net Periodic Pension Expense.

~~The Company expects to recognize~~ additional non-cash, pre-tax non-operating settlement accounting charges of ~~approximately $80-$100~~$64.6 million related to ~~a bulk lump-sum payment to be made in the fourth quarter of 2022 and first quarter of 2023 and~~ the purchase of annuities for any participants not electing a lump-sum distribution. ~~These amounts will be reflected as settlement charges related to the accelerated recognition of the actuarial losses for the PVP A plan that are currently included in the~~ ~~Accumulated other comprehensive loss~~ line item in the Stockholders' Equity section of the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet for the period ended September 29, 2022. Once these actions are complete, the Company anticipates an after-tax cash reversion of any remaining surplus, which the company currently estimates to be within a range of $120 million to $150 million, which the Company expects to take place in the second quarter of 2023. The amounts of these charges and after-tax reversion are dependent upon finalization of the actuarial assumptions, including discount rate, investment rate of return, and benefit payment selections, as of the measurement date of the settlement, which will take place between the fourth quarter of 2022 and first quarter of 2023.

Our U.S. pension plan remained fully funded at ~~September 29, 2022.~~March 30, 2023. Our plan investments are broadly diversified and we do not anticipate a near-term requirement to make cash contributions to our U.S. pension plan. See Note 16 Pension and Other Post-Retirement Benefits,to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I of this Quarterly Report for more information on the Company’s pension plans. Other than the reversion of excess plan assets noted above, which was accounted for as a negative contribution, the Company's expected contributions for the current year have not significantly changed from those described in the Company's ~~2021~~2022 Form 10-K. The Shorts’ Pension has been in a deficit position during ~~the current year,~~recent years, and there is a risk that additional contributions will be required from the trustees or the U.K. Pension Regulator as described under Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" of our ~~2021~~2022 Form 10-K.

Derivatives Accounted for as Hedges

Cash Flow Hedges – Foreign Currency Forward Contract

The Company has entered into a series of currency forward contracts, each designated as a cash flow hedge upon the date of execution, for the purpose of reducing the variability of cash flows and hedging against the foreign currency exposure for forecasted payroll, pension and vendor disbursements that are expected to be made in the British pound sterling at our operations located in Belfast, Northern Ireland. The hedging program implemented is intended to reduce foreign currency exposure, and the associated forward currency contracts hedge forecasted transactions through ~~September~~December 2023. Changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges are recorded in AOCI and recorded in earnings in the period in which the hedged transaction settles. The ~~loss~~gain recognized in AOCI was ~~$32.5~~$2.5 million for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 29, 2022.~~March 30, 2023. Within the next 12 months, the Company expects to recognize a ~~loss~~gain of ~~$25.4~~$3.5 million in earnings related to the foreign currency forward contracts. As of ~~September 29, 2022,~~March 30, 2023, the maximum term of the hedged forecasted transaction was 129 months.

~~Derivatives Not Accounted for as Hedges~~

During the nine months ended September 29, 2022, the Company entered into foreign currency forward contracts in the amount of $291.5 million to minimize the risk of currency exchange rate movements on the Company's planned settlement of the repayable investment agreement between the Company and the U.K.'s Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy. During the nine-month period ended September 29, 2022, these foreign currency forward contracts were settled and new contracts were entered into in the amount of $293.7 million, which were also settled during the period. The Company did not designate these forward contracts as hedges or apply hedge accounting to the forward contracts. For the nine months ended September 29, 2022, the Company recorded a net gain of $1.6 million to other income on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations related to the foreign currency forward contracts.

Information Regarding Guarantors of Spirit’s Notes Registered Under the Securities Act of 1933

Spirit’s 2026 Notes are guaranteed by Spirit NCAeroSystems North Carolina, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Spirit NC”) and the Company, and Spirit’s ~~2023 Notes and~~ 2028 Notes are guaranteed by the Company. None of Spirit’s notes are guaranteed by Spirit’s or the ~~Company’s~~Company's other domestic subsidiaries or any foreign subsidiaries (together, the ~~“non-guarantor subsidiaries”~~“Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries”). The Company consolidates each of Spirit and Spirit NC in its consolidated financial statements. Spirit and Spirit NC are both 100 percent-owned and controlled by the Company. The ~~Company’s~~Company's guarantees of Spirit’s indebtedness are full and unconditional, except that the guarantees may be automatically released and relieved upon satisfaction of the requirements for legal defeasance or covenant defeasance under the applicable indenture being met. The ~~Company’s~~Company's guarantees are also subject to a standard limitation which provides that the maximum amount guaranteed by the Company will not exceed the maximum amount that can be guaranteed without making the guarantee void under fraudulent conveyance laws.

The guarantees of the Company and Spirit NC with respect to Spirit’s 2026 Notes are made on a joint and several basis. The guarantee of Spirit NC is not full and unconditional because Spirit NC can be automatically released and relieved of its obligations under certain circumstances, including if it no longer guarantees Spirit’s credit facility. Like the ~~Company’s~~Company's guarantees, the guarantee of Spirit NC is subject to a standard limitation which provides that the maximum amount guaranteed by Spirit NC will not exceed the maximum amount that can be guaranteed without making the guarantee void under fraudulent conveyance laws.

All of the existing guarantees by the Company and Spirit NC rank equally in right of payment with all of the guarantors’ existing and future senior indebtedness. The secured indebtedness of the Company and Spirit NC (including guarantees of Spirit’s existing and future secured indebtedness) will be effectively senior to guarantees of any unsecured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. Future guarantees of subordinated indebtedness will rank junior to any existing and future senior indebtedness of the guarantors. The guarantees are structurally junior to any debt or obligations of non-guarantor subsidiaries, including all debt or obligations of subsidiaries that are released from their guarantees of the notes. As of ~~September 29, 2022,~~March 30, 2023, indebtedness of our non-guarantor subsidiaries included ~~$295.2~~$320.2 million of outstanding borrowings under intercompany agreements with guarantor subsidiaries and ~~$16.9~~$17.8 million of finance leases of our non-guarantor subsidiaries.

Based on our understanding of Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X (“Rule 3-10”), we believe that the ~~Company’s~~Company's guarantees of Spirit’s indebtedness comply with the conditions set forth in Rule 3-10, which enable us to present summarized financial information for the Company, Spirit and Spirit NC, which is a consolidated guarantor subsidiary, in accordance with Rule 13-01 of Regulation S-X. The summarized financial information excludes information regarding the non-guarantor subsidiaries. In accordance with Rule 3-10, separate financial statements of the guarantor subsidiaries have not been presented.

The following tables include summarized financial information of Spirit, ~~Holdings,~~the Company, and Spirit NC (together, the “obligor group”). Investments in and equity in the earnings of the ~~Company’s other subsidiaries (the “Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries”),~~Company's Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries, which are not a member of the obligor group, have been excluded. The summarized financial information of the obligor group is presented on a combined basis for Spirit and ~~Holdings,~~the Company, and separately for Spirit NC, with intercompany balances and transactions between entities in the obligor group eliminated. The obligor group’s amounts due from, amounts due to and transactions with Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries have been presented in separate line items, if they are material. There are no non-controlling interest in any of the obligor group entities.

Supply Chain Financing Applicable to Suppliers

We have provided ~~our~~certain suppliers with access to a supply chain financing program through a facility with a third-party financing institution. Our suppliers’ ability to access the program is primarily dependent upon the strength of our financial condition and certain qualifying criteria. This program was primarily entered into as a result of seeking payment term extensions with suppliers, and the program allows suppliers to monetize the receivables prior to their payment date, subject to payment of a discount. ~~Our suppliers’ ability to continue using such agreements is primarily dependent upon the strength of our financial condition.~~ ~~During the nine-month period ended September 29, 2022, we increased capacity under our existing supply chain financing program in order to support increases to production.~~ While our suppliers’ access to this supply chain financing program could be curtailed if our credit ratings are downgraded due to a potential reduction in the capacity of the facility, we do not expect that changes in the availability of supply chain financing to our suppliers will have a significant impact on our liquidity.

The balance of ~~payables~~confirmed obligations to suppliers who elected to participate in the supply chain financing program included in our accounts payable balance as of ~~September 29, 2022~~March 30, 2023 and March 31, 2022 was ~~$103.5~~$110.6 mill~~ion. The balance as of September 30, 2021 w~~ion and ~~as $58.9~~$72.3 ~~million. Payables~~million, respectively. Confirmed obligations to suppliers who elected to participate in the supply chain financing program increased by ~~$44.6~~$8.6 million and $13.4 million during the ~~nine-month~~three-month ~~period~~periods ended ~~September 29,~~March 30, 2023 and March 31, 2022,~~. Payables to suppliers who elected to participate in the supply chain financing program did not significantly increase or decrease during the~~ ~~nine-month period ended September 30, 2021~~ respectively. The changes in each period primarily reflect purchases from suppliers related to production levels during the applicable period.

See Note 24 Supplier Financing, to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I of this Quarterly Report for more information.

Advance Payments

Advances on the B787 Program. Boeing has made advance payments to Spirit under the B787 Supply Agreement that are required to be repaid to Boeing by way of offset against the purchase price for future shipset deliveries. As of ~~September 29, 2022,~~March 30, 2023, the amount of advance payments received by us from Boeing under the B787 Supply Agreement and not yet repaid was approximately ~~$208.5~~$202.6 million.

~~Advances on the B737 Program.~~ In an effort to minimize the disruption to Spirit's operations and its supply chain, Spirit and Boeing entered into a Memorandum of Agreement on April 12, 2019 (the "2019 MOA"), which included the terms and conditions for an advance payment to be made from Boeing to Spirit in the amount of $123 million, which was received during the third quarter of 2019. The parties entered into another memorandum of agreement on February 6, 2020 (the "2020 MOA"), which extended the repayment date of the $123 million advance received by Spirit under the 2019 MOA to 2022. The 2020

MOA also required Boeing to pay $225 million to Spirit in the first quarter of 2020, consisting of (i) $70 million in support of Spirit's inventory and production stabilization, of which $10 million was repaid by Spirit in 2021, and (ii) $155 million as an incremental pre-payment for costs and shipset deliverie~~s over the next two years. On February 9, 2021,~~ ~~Spirit signed a letter of agreement under which Boeing paid $38.5 million to Spirit in the first quarter of 2021, which consisted of (i) $68.5 million as additional pre-payment for the costs and shipset deliveries less the (ii) $30 million credit owed to Boeing for rate-based pricing premium. During the~~ ~~nine-month period ended September 29, 2022, $92.3 million of the advance payment was repaid. As of~~ ~~September 29, 2022, the amount of advance payments received from Boeing and not yet repaid was~~ ~~$30.7 million~~.
