Forward guidance

HEICO expects positive cash flow from operations for the remainder of fiscal 2020, but withdrew its fiscal 2020 financial guidance due to the impact of the Outbreak.

Tailwinds

  • Cost savings will most likely be a priority for commercial aviation customers once commercial air travel resumes.
  • Demand for favorably priced commercial aviation products and services will return in advance of the overall market recovery.
  • Cost-saving solutions and robust product development programs will enable HEICO to potentially increase market share.
  • HEICO has no significant debt maturities until fiscal 2023.
  • HEICO plans to utilize its financial strength and flexibility to aggressively pursue high quality acquisitions of various sizes.

Headwinds

  • The COVID-19 outbreak has caused significant volatility and a substantial decline in value across global economic markets.
  • The commercial aerospace industry has experienced an ongoing substantial decline in demand.
  • Businesses that operate within the commercial aerospace industry have been materially impacted by the significant decline in global commercial air travel.
  • It is impossible to predict the future impact of periodic operational disruptions resulting from supply chain disturbances, staffing challenges, temporary facility closures and transportation interruptions.
  • HEICO cannot estimate the duration and magnitude of the Outbreak and cannot confidently predict when demand for commercial aerospace products will return to pre-Outbreak levels.
