Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

Our Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Textron Inc. (Textron) and its majority-owned subsidiaries. We have prepared these unaudited consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. for interim financial information. Accordingly, these interim financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. for complete financial statements. The consolidated interim financial statements included in this quarterly report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2024. In the opinion of management, the interim financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that are necessary for the fair presentation of our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Our financings are conducted through two separate borrowing groups. The Manufacturing group consists of Textron consolidated with its majority-owned subsidiaries that operate in the Textron Aviation, Bell, Textron Systems, Industrial and Textron eAviation segments. The Finance group, which also is the Finance segment, consists of Textron Financial Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries. We designed this framework to enhance our borrowing power by separating the Finance group. Our Manufacturing group operations include the development, production and delivery of tangible goods and services, while our Finance group provides financial services. Due to the fundamental differences between each borrowing group’s activities, investors, rating agencies and analysts use different measures to evaluate each group’s performance. To support those evaluations, we present balance sheet and cash flow information for each borrowing group within the Consolidated Financial Statements. All significant intercompany transactions are eliminated from the Consolidated Financial Statements, including retail financing activities for inventory sold by our Manufacturing group and financed by our Finance group.

Use of Estimates

We prepare our financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Our estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the effects of changes, if any, are reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Operations in the period that they are determined.

Contract Estimates

For contracts where revenue is recognized over time, we recognize changes in estimated contract revenues, costs and profits using the cumulative catch-up method of accounting. This method recognizes the cumulative effect of changes on current and prior periods with the impact of the change from inception-to-date recorded in the current period. Anticipated losses on contracts are recognized in full in the period in which the losses become probable and estimable.

In the first quarter of 2025 and 2024, our cumulative catch-up adjustments increased segment profit by $17 million and $13 million, respectively, and net income by $13 million and $10 million, respectively ($0.07 and $0.05 per diluted share, respectively).

Note 2. Accounts Receivable and Finance Receivables

Finance Receivables

Finance receivables are presented in the following table:


(In millions)	March 29, 2025		December 28, 2024
Finance receivables	$	629	$	622
Allowance for credit losses	(19)		(19)
Total finance receivables, net	$	610	$	603

Finance Receivable Portfolio Quality

We internally assess the quality of our finance receivables based on a number of key credit quality indicators and statistics such as delinquency, loan balance to estimated collateral value and the financial strength of individual borrowers and guarantors. Because many of these indicators are difficult to apply across an entire class of receivables, we evaluate individual loans on a quarterly basis and classify these loans into three categories based on the key credit quality indicators for the individual loan. These three categories are performing, watchlist and nonaccrual.

We classify finance receivables as nonaccrual if credit quality indicators suggest full collection of principal and interest is doubtful. In addition, we automatically classify accounts as nonaccrual once they are contractually delinquent by more than three months unless collection of principal and interest is not doubtful. Accounts are classified as watchlist when credit quality indicators have deteriorated as compared with typical underwriting criteria, and we believe collection of full principal and interest is probable but not certain. All other finance receivables that do not meet the watchlist or nonaccrual categories are classified as performing.

We measure delinquency based on the contractual payment terms of our finance receivables. In determining the delinquency aging category of an account, any/all principal and interest received is applied to the most past-due principal and/or interest amounts due. If a significant portion of the contractually due payment is delinquent, the entire finance receivable balance is reported in accordance with the most past-due delinquency aging category.

Finance receivables categorized based on the credit quality indicators and by the delinquency aging category are summarized as follows:


(Dollars in millions)	March 29, 2025		December 28, 2024
Performing	$	626	$	612

Nonaccrual	3		10
Nonaccrual as a percentage of finance receivables	0.48%		1.61%
Current and less than 31 days past due	$	623	$	609
31-60 days past due	6		13


60+ days contractual delinquency as a percentage of finance receivables	—%		—%

At March 29, 2025, 40% of our performing finance receivables were originated since the beginning of 2023 and 25% were originated from 2020 to 2022 with the remainder prior to 2020. For finance receivables categorized as nonaccrual, 100% were originated prior to 2020.

On a quarterly basis, we evaluate individual larger balance accounts for impairment. A finance receivable is considered impaired when it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement based on our review of the credit quality indicators described above. Impaired finance receivables include both nonaccrual accounts and accounts for which full collection of principal and interest remains probable, but the account’s original terms have been, or are expected to be, significantly modified. If the modification specifies an interest rate equal to or greater than a market rate for a finance receivable with comparable risk, the account is not considered impaired in years subsequent to the modification. Our impaired finance receivables were insignificant at March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024.

Note 4. Accounts Payable and Warranty Liability

Accounts Payable

Supplier Financing Arrangement

We have a financing arrangement with one of our suppliers for a maximum amount of $200 million that extends payment terms for up to 190 days from the receipt of goods and provides for the supplier to be paid by a financial institution earlier than maturity. This financing arrangement expires in April 2027. At March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024, the amount due under the supplier financing arrangement was $91 million and $50 million, respectively.

Warranty Liability

Changes in our current and non-current warranty liability are as follows:


	Three Months Ended

Settlements	(16)		(18)
Adjustments*	(1)		(1)
End of period	$	173	$	170

* Adjustments include changes to prior year estimates, new issues on prior year sales and currency translation adjustments.

Note 5. Leases

We primarily lease certain manufacturing plants, offices, warehouses, training and service centers at various locations worldwide that are classified as either operating or finance leases. Our leases have remaining lease terms up to 24 years, which include options to extend the lease term for periods up to 20 years when it is reasonably certain the option will be exercised.

Operating lease cost totaled $18 million in both the first quarter of 2025 and 2024. Cash paid for operating leases approximated the lease cost and is classified in cash flows from operating activities. Noncash transactions related to operating leases totaled $7 million and $25 million in the first quarter of 2025 and 2024, respectively, reflecting new or extended leases. Finance lease, variable and short-term lease costs were not significant.

Balance sheet and other information related to our leases is as follows:


(Dollars in millions)	March 29, 2025		December 28, 2024
Operating leases:
Other assets	$	355	$	360
Other current liabilities	54		55
Other liabilities	313		316
Weighted-average remaining lease term (in years)	9.9		10.0
Weighted-average discount rate	4.89%		4.84%
Finance leases:
Property, plant and equipment, less accumulated amortization of $11 million and $9 million, respectively	$	97	$	95

Long-term debt, including current portion	99		97
Weighted-average remaining lease term (in years)	6.8		5.9
Weighted-average discount rate	6.65%		6.72%

Table of Contents

At March 29, 2025, maturities of our operating lease liabilities on an undiscounted basis totaled $53 million for the remainder of 2025, $59 million for 2026, $49 million for 2027, $46 million for 2028, $41 million for 2029 and $222 million thereafter.

Note 6. Debt

Under our shelf registration statement, on February 13, 2025, we issued $500 million of SEC-registered fixed-rate notes due in May 2035 with an annual interest rate of 5.50%. The net proceeds of the issuance totaled $495 million, after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and offering expenses.

Note 7. Derivative Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

We measure fair value at the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. We prioritize the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability into a three-tier fair value hierarchy. This fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority (Level 1) to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority (Level 3) to unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exist, requiring companies to develop their own assumptions. Observable inputs that do not meet the criteria of Level 1, which include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, are categorized as Level 2. Level 3 inputs are those that reflect our estimates about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances. Valuation techniques for assets and liabilities measured using Level 3 inputs may include methodologies such as the market approach, the income approach or the cost approach and may use unobservable inputs such as projections, estimates and management’s interpretation of current market data. These unobservable inputs are utilized only to the extent that observable inputs are not available or cost effective to obtain.

Assets and Liabilities Recorded at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

We manufacture and sell our products in a number of countries throughout the world, and, therefore, we are exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates. We primarily utilize foreign currency exchange contracts with maturities of no more than three years to manage this volatility. These contracts qualify as cash flow hedges and are intended to offset the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on forecasted sales, inventory purchases and overhead expenses. Net gains and losses recognized in earnings and Accumulated other comprehensive loss on cash flow hedges, including gains and losses related to hedge ineffectiveness, were not significant in the periods presented.

Our foreign currency exchange contracts are measured at fair value using the market method valuation technique. The inputs to this technique utilize current foreign currency exchange forward market rates published by third-party leading financial news and data providers. These are observable data that represent the rates that the financial institution uses for contracts entered into at that date; however, they are not based on actual transactions, so they are classified as Level 2. At March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024, we had foreign currency exchange contracts with notional amounts upon which the contracts were based of $683 million and $464 million, respectively. At March 29, 2025, the fair value amounts of our foreign currency exchange contracts were a $6 million asset and a $16 million liability. At December 28, 2024, the fair value amount of our foreign currency exchange contracts were a $5 million asset and a $19 million liability.

Our Finance group enters into interest rate swap agreements to mitigate certain exposures to fluctuations in interest rates. By using these contracts, we are able to convert floating-rate cash flows to fixed-rate cash flows. These agreements are designated as cash flow hedges. The fair value of our interest rate swap agreements is determined using values published by third-party leading financial news and data providers. These values are observable data that represent the value that financial institutions use for contracts entered into at that date, but are not based on actual transactions, so they are classified as Level 2. The fair value of our outstanding interest rate swap agreements was a $4 million and an $8 million asset at March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024, respectively.

At March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024, our Finance group had interest rate swap agreements related to our Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Notes for an aggregate notional amount of $264 million that effectively converts the variable-rate interest for these Notes to a weighted-average fixed rate of 5.20%. These agreements have maturities ranging from August 2025 to August 2029. At March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024, we also had a swap agreement related to these Notes with a notional amount of $30 million and a weighted-average fixed rate of 5.10% that has a forward start date of August 15, 2025 and matures on August 15, 2030.

Table of Contents

Assets and Liabilities Not Recorded at Fair Value

The carrying value and estimated fair value of our financial instruments that are not reflected in the financial statements at fair value are as follows:


	March 29, 2025				December 28, 2024
	Carrying		Estimated		Carrying		Estimated
(In millions)	Value		Fair Value		Value		Fair Value
Manufacturing group
Debt, excluding leases	$	(3,313)	$	(3,176)	$	(3,164)	$	(2,989)
Finance group
Finance receivables, excluding leases	452		466		439		454
Debt	(340)		(317)		(341)		(311)

Fair value for the Manufacturing group debt is determined using market observable data for similar transactions (Level 2). The fair value for the Finance group debt was determined primarily based on discounted cash flow analyses using observable market inputs from debt with similar duration, subordination and credit default expectations (Level 2). Fair value estimates for finance receivables were determined based on internally developed discounted cash flow models primarily utilizing significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), which include estimates of the rate of return, financing cost, capital structure and/or discount rate expectations of current market participants combined with estimated loan cash flows based on credit losses, payment rates and expectations of borrowers’ ability to make payments on a timely basis.

Earnings Per Share

We calculate basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) based on net income, which approximates income available to common shareholders for each period. Basic EPS is calculated using the two-class method, which includes the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period and restricted stock units to be paid in stock that are deemed participating securities as they provide nonforfeitable rights to dividends. Diluted EPS considers the dilutive effect of all potential future common stock, including stock options.

The weighted-average shares outstanding for basic and diluted EPS are as follows:


	Three Months Ended
(In thousands)		March 29, 2025	March 30, 2024
Basic weighted-average shares outstanding		182,378	192,800
Dilutive effect of stock options		1,290	2,060
Diluted weighted-average shares outstanding		183,668	194,860

In the first quarter of 2025 and 2024, stock options to purchase 2.1 million and 1.0 million shares, respectively, of common stock were excluded from the calculation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

Remaining Performance Obligations

Our remaining performance obligations, which is the equivalent of our backlog, represent the expected transaction price allocated to our contracts that we expect to recognize as revenues in future periods when we perform under the contracts. These remaining obligations exclude unexercised contract options and potential orders under ordering-type contracts such as Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity contracts. At March 29, 2025, we had $17.2 billion in remaining performance obligations of which we expect to recognize revenues of approximately 78% through 2026, an additional 18% through 2028, and the balance thereafter.

Contract Assets and Liabilities

Assets and liabilities related to our contracts with customers are reported on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period. At March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024, contract assets totaled $478 million and $345 million, respectively, and contract liabilities totaled $1.9 billion at both dates, reflecting timing differences between revenues recognized, billings and payments from customers. We recognized revenues of $340 million and $327 million in the first quarter of 2025 and 2024, respectively, that were included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of each year.

Note 11. Share-Based Compensation

Under our share-based compensation plan, we have authorization to provide awards to selected employees and non-employee directors in the form of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, performance stock, performance share units and other awards. Compensation expense included in net income for our share-based compensation plans is as follows:

Total compensation expense included in net income	$	26	$	58

Compensation expense included stock option expense of $13 million and $15 million in the first quarter of 2025 and 2024, respectively. We typically grant stock appreciation rights to selected non-U.S. employees. At March 29, 2025, outstanding stock appreciation rights totaled 446,753 with a weighted-average exercise price of $66.21 and a weighted-average remaining contractual life of 6.6 years; these units had an intrinsic value of $4 million, compared with $14 million at March 30, 2024.

Table of Contents

Stock Options

Options to purchase our shares have a maximum term of ten years and generally vest ratably over a three-year period. Stock option compensation cost is calculated under the fair value approach using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to determine the fair value of options granted on the date of grant. The expected volatility used in this model is based on historical volatilities and implied volatilities from traded options on our common stock. The expected term is based on historical option exercise data, which is adjusted to reflect any anticipated changes in expected behavior.

We grant options annually on the first day of March. The assumptions used in our option-pricing model for these grants and the weighted-average fair value for these options are as follows:


	March 1, 2025		March 1, 2024
Fair value of options at grant date	$	22.01	$	27.69
Dividend yield	0.1%		0.1%
Expected volatility	25.1%		27.2%
Risk-free interest rate	4.1%		4.3%
Expected term (in years)	4.8		4.8

The stock option activity during the first quarter of 2025 is provided below:


(Options in thousands)	Number of Options	Weighted- Average Exercise Price

Outstanding at March 29, 2025	7,465	$	63.71
Exercisable at March 29, 2025	5,354	$	57.77

At March 29, 2025, our outstanding options had an aggregate intrinsic value of $87 million and a weighted-average remaining contractual life of 6.0 years. Our exercisable options had an aggregate intrinsic value of $87 million and a weighted-average remaining contractual life of 4.8 years at March 29, 2025. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the first quarter of 2025 and 2024 was $4 million and $60 million, respectively.

Restricted Stock Units

We issue restricted stock units that include the right to receive dividend equivalents and are settled in either cash or stock. Grants of restricted stock units vest in full on the third anniversary of the grant date. Compensation cost is determined using the fair value of these units based on the trading price of our common stock. For units payable in stock, we use the trading price on the grant date, while units payable in cash are remeasured using the price at each reporting period date.

The activity for restricted stock units during the first quarter of 2025 is provided below:


	Units Payable in Stock			Units Payable in Cash

Note 14. Income Taxes

Our effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2025 and 2024 was 14.1% and 15.2%, respectively. In the first quarter of 2025, the effective tax rate was lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21%, largely due to the favorable impact of research and development credits and tax deductions for foreign-derived intangible income. In the first quarter of 2024, the effective tax rate was lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21%, largely due to the recognition of excess tax benefits related to share-based compensation, the favorable impact of research and development credits, and tax deductions for foreign-derived intangible income.

Note 15. Commitments and Contingencies

We are subject to actual and threatened legal proceedings and other claims arising out of the conduct of our business, including proceedings and claims relating to commercial and financial transactions; government contracts; alleged lack of compliance with applicable laws and regulations; disputes with suppliers, production partners or other third parties; product liability; patent and trademark infringement; employment disputes; and environmental, health and safety matters. Some of these legal proceedings and claims seek damages, fines or penalties in substantial amounts or remediation of environmental contamination. As a government contractor, we are subject to audits, reviews and investigations to determine whether our operations are being conducted in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements. Under federal government procurement regulations, certain claims brought by the U.S. Government could result in our suspension or debarment from U.S. Government contracting for a period of time. On the basis of information presently available, we do not believe that existing proceedings and claims will have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

Note 16. Subsequent Event

Within the Industrial segment, we have completed the previously announced strategic review of the Powersports product line. On April 23, 2025, we closed on the sale of the Powersports business, including the Arctic Cat brand and its operations. The proceeds and estimated after-tax gain on this transaction will be reported in the second quarter of 2025 and are not expected to be material.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Business Environment

Recent changes to the United States trade policy have resulted in new or higher tariffs on goods imported from numerous countries, and some countries have imposed retaliatory tariffs on imports from the United States. We are principally a North American manufacturer and 71% of our 2024 revenues were generated in the U.S. Our aircraft products and components manufactured in Canada and Mexico are largely exempt from newly imposed tariffs on Canadian and Mexican imports as USMCA (United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement) compliant. In addition, our operations outside of North America primarily source materials and components from outside of North America and manufacture products for non-U.S. customers. Many of our businesses also source materials and components from outside of North America. These businesses have been – or could be in the future – impacted by these newly imposed U.S. tariffs. To date, we have not experienced a material adverse impact from these tariffs. We will continue to evaluate the potential impact of these tariffs and any further developments or changes in global tariff policies on our business and financial position.

An analysis of our consolidated operating results is set forth below. A more detailed analysis of our segments’ operating results is provided in the Segment Analysis section on pages 21 to 24.

Revenues

Revenues increased $171 million, 5%, in the first quarter of 2025, compared with the first quarter of 2024. The revenue increase primarily included the following factors:

•Higher Bell revenues of $256 million, due to higher military volume of $154 million, primarily for the U.S. Army's Future Long Range Assault Aircraft (FLRAA) program and for military sustainment programs, and higher commercial revenues of $102 million.

•Higher Textron Aviation revenues of $24 million, largely reflecting higher aftermarket parts and services revenues of $27 million.

•Lower Industrial revenues of $100 million, with $62 million at Textron Specialized Vehicles, reflecting lower volume and mix, primarily in the golf products, and $38 million at Kautex, largely due to lower volume.

•Lower Textron Systems revenues of $10 million, primarily due to lower volume.

Manufacturing group revenues increased $170 million in the first quarter of 2025, compared with the first quarter of 2024, reflecting a $339 million increase in product revenues, partially offset by a $169 million decrease in service revenues. The decrease in service revenues was largely related to the classification of revenues for the FLRAA program, which was service-related prior to the transition of the program to the Engineering and Manufacturing Development phase in the third quarter of 2024 when it became product-related.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales includes cost of products and services sold for the Manufacturing group. Cost of sales increased $202 million, 8%, in the first quarter of 2025, compared with the first quarter of 2024, largely due to higher net volume and mix of $122 million and a $59 million impact from inflation and higher LIFO inventory provision. Gross margin as a percentage of Manufacturing revenues decreased 200 basis points in the first quarter of 2025, primarily due to lower margin at the Bell segment.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs decreased $12 million, 8%, in the first quarter of 2025, compared with the first quarter of 2024, largely reflecting a $10 million decrease at the Textron Systems segment related to timing of project expenditures.

Table of Contents

Selling and Administrative Expense

Selling and administrative expense decreased $18 million, 6%, in the first quarter of 2025, compared with the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to lower share-based compensation expense, partially offset by a 2024 recovery of amounts that were previously written off related to one customer relationship in the Finance segment.

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense, net includes interest expense for both the Finance and Manufacturing borrowing groups, with interest on intercompany borrowings eliminated, and interest income earned on cash and equivalents for the Manufacturing borrowing group. In the first quarter of 2025, interest expense, net increased $9 million, 45%, compared with the first quarter of 2024, reflecting lower interest income. Gross interest expense totaled $38 million in both the first quarter of 2025 and 2024.

Special Charges

Special charges include restructuring activities as discussed in Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements on page 18.

Segment Analysis

We operate in, and report financial information for, the following six operating segments: Textron Aviation, Bell, Textron Systems, Industrial, Textron eAviation and Finance. Segment profit is an important measure used for evaluating performance and for decision-making purposes. Segment profit for the manufacturing segments excludes the non-service components of pension and postretirement income, net; LIFO inventory provision; intangible asset amortization; interest expense, net for Manufacturing group; certain corporate expenses; gains/losses on major business dispositions; and special charges. The operating costs used to derive segment profit for our manufacturing segments includes cost of sales, research and development costs and selling and administrative expense. The cost of sales discussed in this Segment Analysis section excludes the LIFO inventory provision and intangible asset amortization discussed above that are reported within Cost of products sold or Cost of services sold on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The measurement for the Finance segment includes interest income and expense along with intercompany interest income and expense.

In our discussion of comparative results for the Manufacturing group, material changes in revenues and segment profit for our commercial businesses typically are expressed in terms of product line revenues, including volume and mix and pricing; foreign exchange; acquisitions and dispositions; inflation; manufacturing efficiency; and changes in research and development costs and selling and administrative expense. For revenues, volume and mix represents changes in revenues from increases or decreases in the number of units delivered or services provided and the composition of products and/or services sold. For segment profit, volume and mix represents a change due to the number of units delivered or services provided and the composition of products and/or services sold at different profit margins. Pricing represents changes in unit pricing. Foreign exchange is the change resulting from translating foreign-denominated amounts into U.S. dollars at exchange rates that are different from the prior period. Revenues generated by acquired businesses are reflected in Acquisitions for a twelve-month period, while reductions in revenues and segment profit from the sale of businesses are reflected as Dispositions. Inflation represents higher material, wages, benefits, pension service cost or other costs. Manufacturing efficiency includes changes in material, labor and overhead variances to standards, typically due to scrap rates, labor efficiency or inefficiencies, facility usage and other manufacturing productivity inputs.

Approximately 25% of our 2024 revenues were derived from contracts with the U.S. Government, including those under the U.S. Government-sponsored foreign military sales program. For our segments that contract with the U.S. Government, material changes in revenues related to these contracts are expressed in terms of volume. Changes in segment profit for these contracts are typically expressed in terms of volume and mix and contract performance, which includes cumulative catch-up adjustments associated with

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Key information that is utilized in assessing our liquidity is summarized below:


(Dollars in millions)	March 29, 2025		December 28, 2024
Manufacturing group
Cash and equivalents	$	1,194	$	1,386
Debt	3,394		3,247
Shareholders’ equity	7,275		7,204
Capital (debt plus shareholders’ equity)	10,669		10,451

Debt to capital	32%		31%
Finance group
Cash and equivalents	$	51	$	55
Debt	340		341

We believe that our calculations of debt to capital and net debt to capital are useful measures as they provide a summary indication of the level of debt financing (i.e., leverage) that is in place to support our capital structure, as well as to provide an indication of the capacity to add further leverage. We expect to have sufficient cash to meet our needs based on our existing cash balances, the cash we expect to generate from our manufacturing operations and the availability of our existing credit facility.

Table of Contents

Credit Facilities and Other Sources of Capital

Textron has a senior unsecured revolving credit facility for an aggregate principal amount of $1.0 billion, of which $100 million is available for the issuance of letters of credit. We may elect to increase the aggregate amount of commitments under the facility to up to $1.3 billion by designating an additional lender or by an existing lender agreeing to increase its commitment. The facility expires in October 2027 and provides for two one-year extensions at our option with the consent of lenders representing a majority of the commitments under the facility. At March 29, 2025 and December 28, 2024, there were no amounts borrowed against the facility and there were $9 million of outstanding letters of credit issued under the facility.

We also maintain an effective shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission that allows us to issue an unlimited amount of public debt and other securities. On February 13, 2025, we issued $500 million of SEC-registered fixed-rate notes due in May 2035 with an annual interest rate of 5.50%. On March 3, 2025, we repaid our $350 million 3.875% Notes due in 2025.

Manufacturing Group Cash Flows

Cash flows for the Manufacturing group as presented in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows are summarized below:


	Three Months Ended
(In millions)	March 29, 2025		March 30, 2024
Operating activities	$	(114)	$	(30)
Investing activities	(10)		(60)
Financing activities	(75)		(635)

In the first quarter of 2025, the net cash outflow from operating activities was $114 million, compared with a net cash outflow of $30 million in the first quarter of 2024. The $84 million increase in cash outflows was largely due to changes in working capital. We expect positive cash flows from operating activities for the full year.

Cash flows used in investing activities included $56 million and $66 million of capital expenditures in the first quarter of 2025 and 2024, respectively. In the first quarter of 2025, cash flows from investing activities also included $31 million of net proceeds from corporate-owned life insurance policies.

Cash flows used in financing activities in the first quarter of 2025 included $352 million of payments on long-term debt and $215 million of cash paid to repurchase an aggregate of 2.9 million shares of our common stock, largely offset by $495 million of net proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt. In the first quarter of 2024, cash flows used in financing activities included $352 million of payments on long-term debt and $317 million of cash paid to repurchase an aggregate of 3.6 million shares of our common stock.

In the first quarter of 2025, the net cash outflow from operating activities was $124 million, compared with a net cash outflow of $7 million in the first quarter of 2024. The $117 million increase in cash outflows was largely due to changes in working capital and a net cash outflow of $35 million from captive financing activities.

Cash flows used in financing activities in the first quarter of 2025 included $355 million of payments on long-term debt and $215 million of cash paid to repurchase shares of our outstanding common stock, largely offset by $495 million of net proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt. In the first quarter of 2024, cash flows used in financing activities included $365 million of payments on long-term debt and $317 million of cash paid to repurchase shares of our outstanding common stock.

Captive Financing and Other Intercompany Transactions

The Finance group provides financing primarily to purchasers of new and pre-owned Textron Aviation aircraft and Bell helicopters manufactured by our Manufacturing group, otherwise known as captive financing. In the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, cash received from customers is reflected as operating activities when received from third parties. However, in the cash flow information provided for the separate borrowing groups, cash flows related to captive financing activities are reflected based on the operations of each group. For example, when product is sold by our Manufacturing group to a customer and is financed by the Finance group, the origination of the finance receivable is recorded within investing activities as a cash outflow in the Finance group’s statement of cash flows. Meanwhile, in the Manufacturing group’s statement of cash flows, the cash received from the Finance group on the customer’s behalf is recorded within operating cash flows as a cash inflow. Although cash is transferred between the two borrowing groups, there is no cash transaction reported in the consolidated cash flows at the time of the original financing. These captive financing activities, along with all significant intercompany transactions, are reclassified or eliminated from the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Reclassification adjustments included in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows on page 6 are summarized below:

Critical Accounting Estimates Update

Our Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. The accounting estimates that we believe are most critical to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations are reported in Item 7 of our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The following section provides an update of the year-end disclosure.

Revenue Recognition

A substantial portion of our revenues is related to long-term contracts with the U.S. Government, including those under the U.S. Government-sponsored foreign military sales program, for the design, development, manufacture or modification of aerospace and defense products as well as related services. We generally use the cost-to-cost method to measure progress for these contracts because it best depicts the transfer of control to the customer that occurs as we incur costs on our contracts. Under this measure, the extent of progress towards completion is measured based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to the estimated costs at completion of the performance obligation, and revenue is recorded proportionally as costs are incurred.

Table of Contents

Changes in our estimate of the total expected cost or in the transaction price for a contract typically impact our profit booking rate. We utilize the cumulative catch-up method of accounting to recognize the impact of these changes on our profit booking rate for a contract. Under this method, the inception-to-date impact of a profit adjustment on a contract is recognized in the period the adjustment is identified. The impact of our cumulative catch-up adjustments on segment profit recognized in prior periods is presented below:

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Our business, financial condition and results of operations are subject to various risks. The Company is enhancing the risk factors previously disclosed in the 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2024 with the following risk factor.

We are subject to risks of doing business globally that could adversely impact our business.

Risks arising from uncertainty in global macroeconomic conditions may harm our business. We are sensitive to global macroeconomic conditions. Negative macroeconomic factors may have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition, as well as on our distributors, customers, subcontractors and suppliers, and on activity in many of the industries and markets we serve. We cannot predict changes in worldwide or regional economic or political conditions and government policies as such factors are highly volatile and beyond our control. If current macroeconomic pressures, including from inflation and labor and supply chain challenges, continue or if global macroeconomic conditions deteriorate and remain at depressed levels for extended periods, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. In addition, changes in laws or policies governing the terms of foreign trade, and in particular increased trade restrictions, tariffs or taxes on imports from countries where we manufacture or sell our products or from where we import products or raw materials (either directly or through our suppliers) could adversely impact our competitive position, business operations and financial results. In particular, recent changes to global tariff policies have created significant uncertainty with respect to trade policies, treaties and tariffs. These developments could adversely impact us, our distributors, customers, subcontractors or suppliers which could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. See Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for further discussion of the impact of these tariffs.
