Full-Year Fiscal 2021 Net Sales Guidance

    --  Net sales between $1.8 - $1.9 billion

"Revenues in Systems & Support increased for the second consecutive quarter driven by higher military volumes and partial rate recovery on Airbus programs. Organic revenue decreased compared to the prior year period due primarily to expected declines in Aerospace Structures associated with planned reductions from our portfolio transformation and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic," stated Daniel J. Crowley, Triumph's chairman, president and chief executive officer. "We continued executing our plan to exit legacy programs in Aerospace Structures with only the 747-8 remaining to close out later this calendar year. Revenue from our Systems business now exceeds Structures sales volume."

Mr. Crowley continued, "Our cash generation in the third quarter demonstrated strong working capital management, the benefits of robust cost reduction actions and lower expenses on 747-8 close-out. Profitability on an adjusted basis improved sequentially in the quarter, demonstrating measurable recovery towards pre-COVID levels across both business units. Triumph remains focused on protecting the health and safety of our people, conserving cash and partnering with our customers to ensure we are best positioned for recovery for the benefit of all our stakeholders."

Third Quarter Fiscal Year 2021 Overview

After accounting for the impact of the divestitures, sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2021 were down 32% organically from the comparable prior year period. The decline was driven by planned reductions on sunsetting and transitioned programs, impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting production rate decreases primarily on commercial programs, partially offset by increases in military programs.

Third quarter operating loss of $35.0 million included $45.3 million loss on held for sale assets, $23.7 million impairment of rotable inventory driven legacy aircraft retirements and $4.1 million of restructuring costs associated with facility closures. Net loss for the third quarter of fiscal year 2021 was $68.1 million, or ($1.30) per share. On an adjusted basis, net income was $5.0 million, or $0.09 per share.

Triumph's results included the following:

       * Differences due to rounding

The number of shares used in computing diluted earnings per share for the third quarter of 2021 was 52.8 million.

Backlog, which represents the next 24 months of actual purchase orders with firm delivery dates or contract requirements, was $2.28 billion, down as expected compared to the prior year period and on a sequential basis due to divestitures, sunsetting programs and recent production rate reductions, but partially offset by military program increases in Systems & Support.

For the third quarter of fiscal 2021, cash flow provided by operations was $43.9 million, reflecting improved working capital and operating margins and included liquidation of approximately $10.0 million in prior period advances against current period deliveries.

Outlook

Based on anticipated aircraft production rates and MRO demand, including the impacts of pending program exits and no extended shut-down of operations due to the pandemic, the Company continues to expect that net sales for fiscal year 2021 will be approximately $1.8 to $1.9 billion.

The Company expects cash flow to be break even to positive in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year. Therefore, the Company expects cash used in operations and free cash use for the full fiscal year to be on par or moderately lower than the first nine months.

The Company's outlook excludes the impact of the pending sale of our Composite businesses and any potential future divestitures.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure Disclosures

We prepare and publicly release quarterly unaudited financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. In accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") guidance on Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations, we also disclose and discuss certain non-GAAP financial measures in our public releases. Currently, the non-GAAP financial measure that we disclose is Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAP, which is our net income before interest, income taxes, amortization of acquired contract liabilities, curtailments, settlements and special termination benefits, legal settlements, depreciation and amortization and Adjusted EBITDA, less pension & other postretirement benefits. We disclose Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAP on a consolidated and Adjusted EBITDAP an operating segment basis in our earnings releases, investor conference calls and filings with the SEC. The non-GAAP financial measures that we use may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Also, in the future, we may disclose different non-GAAP financial measures in order to help our investors more meaningfully evaluate and compare our future results of operations to our previously reported results of operations.

We view Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAP as operating performance measure and as such we believe that the GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to it is net income. In calculating Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAP, we exclude from net income the financial items that we believe should be separately identified to provide additional analysis of the financial components of the day-to-day operation of our business. We have outlined below the type and scope of these exclusions and the material limitations on the use of these non-GAAP financial measures as a result of these exclusions. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAP are not measurements of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as a measure of liquidity, as an alternative to net income (loss), income from continuing operations, or as an indicator of any other measure of performance derived in accordance with GAAP. Investors and potential investors in our securities should not rely on Adjusted EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDAP as substitutes for any GAAP financial measure, including net income (loss) or income from continuing operations. In addition, we urge investors and potential investors in our securities to carefully review the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAP to net income set forth below, in our earnings releases and in other filings with the SEC and to carefully review the GAAP financial information included as part of our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and our Annual Reports on Form 10-K that are filed with the SEC, as well as our quarterly earnings releases, and compare the GAAP financial information with our Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAP.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAP is used by management to internally measure our operating and management performance and by investors as a supplemental financial measure to evaluate the performance of our business that, when viewed with our GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliation, we believe provides additional information that is useful to gain an understanding of the factors and trends affecting our business. We have spent more than 20 years expanding our product and service capabilities partially through acquisitions of complementary businesses. Due to the expansion of our operations, which included acquisitions, our net income has included significant charges for depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAP exclude these charges and provide meaningful information about the operating performance of our business, apart from charges for depreciation and amortization. We believe the disclosure of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAP helps investors meaningfully evaluate and compare our performance from quarter to quarter and from year to year. We also believe Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAP is a measure of our ongoing operating performance because the isolation of non-cash income and expenses, such as amortization of acquired contract liabilities, depreciation and amortization, and non-operating items, such as interest and income taxes, provides additional information about our cost structure, and, over time, helps track our operating progress. In addition, investors, securities analysts and others have regularly relied on Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAP to provide a financial measure by which to compare our operating performance against that of other companies in our industry.

Set forth below are descriptions of the financial items that have been excluded from our net income to calculate Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDAP and the material limitations associated with using this non-GAAP financial measure as compared to net income:

    --  Divestitures may be useful for investors to consider because they
        reflect gains or losses from sale of operating units.  We do not believe
        these earnings necessarily reflect the current and ongoing cash earnings
        related to our operations.
    --  Legal settlements may be useful to investors to consider because they
        reflect gains or losses from disputes with third parties. We do not
        believe that these earnings necessarily reflect the current and ongoing
        cash earnings related to our operations.
    --  Non-service defined benefit income (inclusive of the adoption of ASU
        2017-07 and certain pension related transactions such as curtailments,
        settlements, early retirement or other incentives) may be useful to
        investors to consider because they represent the cost of post-retirement
        benefits to plan participants, net of the assumption of returns on the
        plan's assets and are not indicative of the cash paid for such benefits.
        We do not believe these earnings (expenses) necessarily reflect the
        current and ongoing cash earnings related to our operations.
    --  Amortization of acquired contract liabilities may be useful for
        investors to consider because it represents the non-cash earnings on the
        fair value of below market contracts acquired through acquisitions. We
        do not believe these earnings necessarily reflect the current and
        ongoing cash earnings related to our operations.
    --  Amortization expense and nonrecurring asset impairments (including
        goodwill, intangible asset impairments, and nonrecurring rotable
        inventory impairments) may be useful for investors to consider because
        it represents the estimated attrition of our acquired customer base and
        the diminishing value of tradenames, product rights, licenses, or, in
        the case of goodwill, other assets that are not individually identified
        and separately recognized under U.S. GAAP, or, in the case of
        nonrecurring asset impairments, the impact of unusual and nonrecurring
        events affecting the estimated recoverability of existing assets. We do
        not believe these charges necessarily reflect the current and ongoing
        cash charges related to our operating cost structure,
    --  Depreciation may be useful for investors to consider because they
        generally represent the wear and tear on our property and equipment used
        in our operations. We do not believe these charges necessarily reflect
        the current and ongoing cash charges related to our operating cost
        structure.
    --  The amount of interest expense and other we incur may be useful for
        investors to consider and may result in current cash inflows or
        outflows. However, we do not consider the amount of interest expense and
        other to be a representative component of the day-to-day operating
        performance of our business.
    --  Income tax expense may be useful for investors to consider because it
        generally represents the taxes which may be payable for the period and
        the change in deferred income taxes during the period and may reduce the
        amount of funds otherwise available for use in our business.  However,
        we do not consider the amount of income tax expense to be a
        representative component of the day-to-day operating performance of our
        business.

Management compensates for the above-described limitations of using non-GAAP measures by using a non-GAAP measure only to supplement our GAAP results and to provide additional information that is useful to gain an understanding of the factors and trends affecting our business.

Adjusted Operating Income is defined as GAAP Operating Income, less expenses/gains associated with the Company's transformation, such as restructuring expenses, gains/losses on divestitures, impairments of goodwill and other assets. Management believes that this is useful in evaluating operating performance, but this measure should not be used in isolation. The following table reconciles our Operating income to Adjusted Operating income as noted above.

Cash provided by operations, is provided for consistency and comparability. We also use free cash flow as a key factor in planning for and consideration of strategic acquisitions and the repayment of debt. This measure should not be considered in isolation, as a measure of residual cash flow available for discretionary purposes, or as an alternative to operating results presented in accordance with GAAP. The following table reconciles cash provided by operations to free cash flow.
