Spirit AeroSystems reported a loss of US$5.31 per share in the first quarter of 2024, compared to a loss of US$2.68 per share in the same period in 2023. The company announced job cuts at a key factory due to a slowdown in jet deliveries. Analysts expect the company to reach breakeven soon. Boeing has agreed to buy Spirit AeroSystems for $4.7 billion, although the deal faces scrutiny from the Pentagon and concerns from Kansas Senator Moran.
