Collins Aerospace had first quarter 2024 reported sales of $6,673 million, up 9 percent versus the prior year. The increase in sales was driven by a 14 percent increase in both commercial aftermarket and commercial OE, and a 1 percent increase in defense. The increase in commercial sales was driven primarily by strong demand across commercial aerospace end markets, which resulted in higher flight hours and higher OE production rates. The increase in defense sales was driven primarily by higher volume.
Collins Aerospace recorded operating profit of $849 million, down 5 percent versus the prior year. Reported operating profit included $175 million of charges related to unfavorable purchase commitments and an impairment charge as a result of initiating alternative titanium sources. On an adjusted basis, operating profit* of $1,048 million was up 16 percent versus the prior year. The increase in adjusted operating profit* was primarily driven by drop through on higher commercial aftermarket volume, partially offset by unfavorable OE mix, higher space program costs and increased R&D expense.
