The total value of the transaction is approximately $8.3 billion, including Spirit&#8217;s last reported net debt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;We believe this deal is in the best interest of the flying public, our airline customers, the employees of Spirit and Boeing, our shareholders and the country more broadly,&#8221; said Boeing President and CEO Dave Calhoun. &#8220;By reintegrating Spirit, we can fully align our commercial production systems, including our Safety and Quality Management Systems, and our workforce to the same priorities, incentives and outcomes \u2013 centered on safety and quality.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/en\/2024\/06\/boeing-resuming-widebody-airplane-deliveries-to-china.html\">Boeing resuming widebody airplane deliveries to China<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Boeing&#8217;s acquisition of Spirit will include substantially all Boeing-related business operations, as well as additional defense and aftermarket operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For its part, Airbus has entered into a binding term sheet agreement with Spirit AeroSystems in relation to a potential acquisition of major activities related to Airbus, notably the production of A350 fuselage sections in Kinston, North Carolina, U.S., and St. Nazaire, France; of the A220\u2019s wings and mid-fuselage in Belfast, Northern Ireland, and Casablanca, Morocco; as well as of the A220 pylons in Wichita, Kansas, U.S.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With this agreement, Airbus aims to ensure stability of supply for its commercial aircraft programmes through a more sustainable way forward, both operationally and financially, for the various Airbus work packages that Spirit AeroSystems is responsible for today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The transaction would cover the acquisition of these activities. Airbus will be compensated by payment of $559 million from Spirit AeroSystems, for a nominal consideration of $1.00, subject to adjustments including based on the final transaction perimeter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The signing of definitive agreements remains subject to subsequent due diligence, such as Spirit&#8217;s regulatory and shareholder approvals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2
