Textron Inc. Announces Its Intent to Separate Its Industrial Segment from Core Aerospace and Defense Businesses Textron Inc. announced its intent to separate its Industrial segment from the Company’s core aerospace and defense businesses to enhance its strategic and operational focus and drive long-term value for stakeholders. Textron intends to explore multiple paths to effect the planned separation of its Industrial segment, including but not limited to a sale of the Industrial businesses or a tax-free separation into a standalone, publicly traded company. The separation results in New Textron becoming a pure-play aerospace and defense company aligned to its core franchises of Textron Aviation, Bell, and Textron Systems. New Textron and Industrial operate in distinct markets with unique business opportunities and investment requirements. As separate companies, each is expected to benefit from: Enhanced agility and focus to better position for long-term success; Ability to tailor capital allocation strategies aligned with each company’s growth profile, product development activities, and larger industry dynamics; Increased strategic flexibility to pursue organic and inorganic growth opportunities; Compelling investment profiles appealing to different investor bases; and Distinct management teams comprised of experienced industry leaders with relevant expertise and track records of value creation. Following the planned separation, New Textron, with over $12 billion in expected 2026 revenues and $19 billion in backlog, will be a premier pure-play aerospace and defense company with world-class engineering capabilities, a long track record of innovation, and proven manufacturing and support operations. The Company will be anchored by its core franchises: in general aviation under the Cessna and Beechcraft brands and in military and commercial rotorcraft under the Bell brand, in addition to Textron Systems’ differentiated suite of aerospace and defense products and services. New Textron expects a successful separation to increase its revenue growth profile and operating margins. The Company remains committed to maintaining a strong balance sheet and consistent capital allocation priorities, including investments in research and development and capital expenditures. Industrial, with over $3 billion in expected 2026 revenues, is composed of Kautex – a leader in plastic fuel systems, battery enclosures, and clear-vision systems for the automotive industry – and Textron Specialized Vehicles, a manufacturer of specialized vehicles and equipment with globally recognized brands such as E-Z-GO, PACE Technologies, Jacobsen, and TUG Technologies. The Company is targeting completion of the separation within 12 to 18 months, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions customary for such a proposed separation, including receipt of any required regulatory approvals and final approval of the Company’s Board of Directors. There can be no assurance regarding the ultimate timing or structure of the proposed separation or that a transaction will be completed. As the Company pursues this separation, Textron will continue to operate its Industrial businesses in alignment with its current strategy, including continued investments in growth, margin improvement, and innovation.

Textron Inc. announces Realignment of eAviation Segment into Existing Reporting Segments On October 16, 2025, Textron Inc.’s management approved a plan to eliminate Textron eAviation as a separate reporting segment by realigning Textron eAviation’s business activities within other Textron reporting segments, effective January 4, 2026, the beginning of Textron’s 2026 fiscal year. Under this realignment, a significant part of Textron eAviation, including Pipistrel, will become part of the Textron Aviation reporting segment to enable the business to more effectively leverage the development, manufacturing and sales expertise at Textron Aviation.

New minor risk - Insider selling There has been significant insider selling in the company's shares over the past 3 months. Total value of shares sold: €1.0m This is considered a minor risk. There are several reasons why an insider may be selling, including to cover a tax obligation or pay for some other expense. However, we generally consider it a negative if insiders have been selling, especially if they do so below the current price. It implies that they considered a lower price to be reasonable. This is a weak signal, but if there is a pattern of unexplained selling, it can be a sign the insider believes the company's stock is overpriced. Note: We only include open market transactions and private dispositions of directly owned stock by individuals, not by corporations or trusts. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company. Reported Earnings • Oct 27

The Beechcraft T-6 Texan II is the world’s premier military flight trainer. To date, the global fleet of more than 1,000 Beechcraft T-6 Texan II aircraft has surpassed 5 million flight hours across 13 nations and two NATO flight schools. A vital asset, the T-6 empowers global pilot training across the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Flight Training program in Canada, the Euro NATO Joint Jet Pilot Training Program (ENJJPT) at Sheppard AFB, Texas and the U.S. Air Force Aviation Leadership Program as well as the U.S. Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps, Army and Coast Guard, the Hellenic Air Force, the Argentine Air Force, the Israeli Air Force, the Royal Air Force, the Iraqi Air Force, the Royal Canadian Air Force, Mexican Navy, the Mexican Air Force, the Royal Moroccan Air Force, the Colombian Air Force, the Royal New Zealand Air Force, the Royal Thai Air Force and the Tunisian Air Force.

With an installed base that more than quadruples its closest competitor, the family of Beechcraft T-6 Texan II aircraft has been the world’s number one Integrated Training System (ITS) for more than 20 years. The Beechcraft T-6 Texan II capitalizes on an active production line with an Manufacturing Readiness Level (MRL) rating of 10 as well as a proven supply chain and the affordability of 85% parts commonality with the Beechcraft AT-6E Wolverine.

Textron Reportedly Seeks Fuel Systems Unit Sale Textron Inc. (NYSE:TXT) has revived efforts it ended four years ago to sell a business that makes fuel tanks for cars and is worth in excess of $1 billion, according to people familiar with the matter. The fuel systems business faces headwinds as the car industry pivots from combustion to electric engines. Textron has been focusing on its aviation business, making investments such as the $238 million acquisition of electric aircraft maker Pipistrel in 2022. Textron has hired JPMorgan Chase & Co (JPM.N) to run a sale process for the unit, which is called Kautex, the sources said. It said in 2019 it had decided to keep Kautex after exploring a sale or a spin-off with advice from Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (GS.N). The sources cautioned that a deal is once again not certain and asked not to be identified because the matter is confidential. Textron and JPMorgan declined comment. Upcoming Dividend • Jun 01
