Aerospace Sales
Our sales to aerospace customers were 38, 40 and 41 percent of our total
sales in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Our sales to commercial aerospace
original equipment manufacturers were 7, 9 and 12 percent of our total sales in
2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. If there were a large decline in sales of
aircraft that use our components, operating results could be negatively
impacted. In addition, our sales to commercial aftermarket customers of
aerospace products and services were 15, 16 and 16 percent of our total sales in
2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. If there were a large decline in the number
of global flying hours or landings for aircraft that use our components or
services, operating results could be negatively impacted. The terrorist attacks
on September 11, 2001 resulted in an abrupt downturn in the aviation industry
which was already negatively impacted by a weak economy. This dramatic downturn
in the commercial air transport industry continued to adversely impact the
operating results of our Aerospace segment in 2003.
U.S. Government Sales
Sales to the U.S. Government (principally by our Aerospace segment), acting
through its various departments and agencies and through prime contractors,
amounted to $2,595, $2,277 and $2,491 million in 2003, 2002 and 2001,
respectively, which included sales to the U.S. Department of Defense, as a prime
contractor and subcontractor, of $2,269, $1,833 and $1,631 million in 2003, 2002
and 2001, respectively. U.S. defense spending increased in 2003 and is also
expected to increase in 2004.
In addition to normal business risks, companies engaged in supplying
military and other equipment to the U.S. Government are subject to unusual
risks, including dependence on Congressional appropriations and administrative
allotment of funds, changes in governmental procurement legislation and
regulations and other policies that may reflect military and political
developments, significant changes in contract scheduling, complexity of designs
and the rapidity with which they become obsolete, necessity for constant design
improvements, intense competition for U.S. Government business necessitating
increases in time and investment for design and development, difficulty of
forecasting costs and schedules when bidding on developmental and highly
sophisticated technical work and other factors characteristic of the industry.
Changes are customary over the life of U.S. Government contracts, particularly
development contracts, and generally result in adjustments of contract prices.
