Buzzing the tower: A high-speed review of aerospace channel insights
Industrials
Channel reads through June provide greater backing to Northcoast’s bearish near-term call on the aerospace supply chain. As a result, they maintain their lower investment ratings for the upstream suppliers and the specialty materials group, and they anticipate a reset of estimates to a lower level in the next twelve to eighteen months. Based on the responses from contacts, the survey data clearly shows a negative demand environment (or downward momentum in 2Q24), which is in line with what other channels have said. Early warning signals also seem to be spreading beyond the problem areas Northcoast identified in their last market update, such as jet engine manufacturers, European-based suppliers, the Boeing supply chain and premium forgers.

BA lowers its FCF target for 2024 to the negative $1-2bn range as Chinese customers are currently unwilling to accept the new 737 MAX aircraft. The latest corporate dilemma, which seemingly adds to the weak balance sheet narrative, relates to an ongoing Chinese regulator review of batteries that power the 25-hour cockpit voice recorder. However, there is growing speculation to suggest BA has, once again, become a casualty of renewed US / China trade tensions. Northcoast updates their model to account for fewer commercial aircraft deliveries in the current quarter, driving a larger earnings loss forecast for 2024. Their TP of $140 still offers 20%+ downside.
