Aerostructures Market Revenue 2009Metallic, Composite & Assembly
Data from 2010 Aerostructures Market Report, Counterpoint LLC
• Counterpoint Market Intelligence (CMI) estimates total aerostructures sales of ~$40B+ in 2012
• Value of composite structures is ~$8B
� 20% of total revenue� Grows to ~$18B (2X+) by 2019� 35% of total revenue
• Doubling of output in 7 years will require Capital Investment, Development
of Engineering talent, Training of Factory Labor
• Will the adoption of composites continue , plateau or decline?
• Primes (Boeing, Airbus, Bombardier, Embraer, etc)• Seven (7) “Super Tier 1’s” (Spirit, MHI, Alenia, et c), companies with > $1B in revenues• Tier 1’s = most of their production goes to the Pri mes• Tier 2’s = majority of product goes to Tier 1’s, so me goes to Primes

Summary
• Composites are definitely here to stay
• Double-digit annual growth projected
• Considerable upside potential on new
innovations and applications
• Next generation(s) of engineers have greater
exposure to, and knowledge of, composites
• Certain applications will heavily favor
composites, certain applications will heavily
favor metals
• The battleground will be “in the middle”
where it can go either way. Hard work and
innovative thinking will carry the day
The heavy lifting begins
