Our interpretation
Special-process capability is documented. Legacy facility targets on an undated page do not verify current capacity.
Capacity and delivery boundaries
- The source mixes historical output and a 2024 expansion target; current accepted throughput is unverified and no annual capacity figure is carried forward. Source ↗
What to monitor
- Customer-approved coating throughput, yield and turn times
- Shop-visit completion, parts availability and warranty exposure
What would weaken the case?
- Qualification or rework limits accepted output
- Engine-program costs absorb aftermarket growth
Economic exposure
Revenue tied to this specific constraint, pricing power and current valuation have not been quantified in this profile. These need a separate financial review.
