CURTISS WRIGHT CORP

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Curtiss-Wright Corporation along with its subsidiaries ("we," the "Corporation," or the "Company") is a global integrated business that provides highly engineered products, solutions, and services mainly to aerospace & defense (A&D) markets, as well as critical technologies in demanding commercial power, process, and industrial markets.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Curtiss-Wright and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Corporation have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of these financial statements.

Management is required to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in the accompanying financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The most significant of these estimates includes the estimate of costs to complete using the over-time revenue recognition accounting method, pension plan and postretirement obligation assumptions, estimates for inventory obsolescence, fair value estimates around assets and assumed liabilities from acquisitions, estimates for the valuation and useful lives of intangible assets, legal reserves, and the estimate of future environmental costs. Changes in estimates of contract sales, costs, and profits are recognized using the cumulative catch-up method of accounting. This method recognizes in the current period the cumulative effect of the changes on current and prior periods. Accordingly, the effect of the changes on future periods of contract performance is recognized as if the revised estimate had been the original estimate. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, there were no significant changes in estimated contract costs. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been reflected in these financial statements.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Corporation’s 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of trends or of the operating results for a full year.

Recently issued accounting standards adopted

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-10, Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities, which provides guidance on the recognition, measurement, and presentation of government grants. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning with the year ending December 31, 2028, including interim periods within that period. The Company early adopted this standard beginning in the first quarter of 2026 using the modified prospective approach.

New accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

In December 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires disclosure of disaggregated information about certain income statement line items in the notes to the financial statements. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning with the year ending December 31, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Accounting for and Disclosure of Software Costs, which amends certain aspects of the accounting for and disclosure of internal-use software costs. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning with the year ending December 31, 2028. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

2. REVENUE

The Corporation recognizes revenue when control of a promised good and/or service is transferred to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Corporation expects to be entitled to in exchange for that good and/or service.

Performance Obligations

The Corporation identifies a performance obligation for each promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. As part of its assessment, the Corporation considers all goods and/or services promised in the contract, regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or implied by customary business practices. The Corporation’s contracts may contain either a single performance obligation, including the promise to transfer individual goods or services that are not separately distinct within the context of the respective contracts, or multiple performance obligations. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, the Corporation allocates the overall transaction price to each performance obligation using standalone selling prices, where available, or utilizes estimates for each distinct good or service in the contract where standalone prices are not available.

The Corporation’s performance obligations are satisfied either at a point-in-time or on an over-time basis. Typically, over-time revenue recognition is based on the utilization of an input measure used to measure progress, such as costs incurred to date relative to total estimated costs. If a performance obligation does not qualify for over-time revenue recognition, revenue is then recognized at the point-in-time in which control of the distinct good or service is transferred to the customer, typically based upon the terms of delivery.

The following table illustrates the approximate percentage of revenue recognized for performance obligations satisfied over-time versus at a point-in-time for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025:

Contract backlog represents the remaining performance obligations that have not yet been recognized as revenue. Backlog includes deferred revenue and amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. Total backlog was approximately $4.6 billion as of September 30, 2026, of which the Corporation expects to recognize approximately 90% as net sales over the next 36 months. The remainder will be recognized thereafter.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The following table presents the Corporation’s total net sales disaggregated by end market and customer type:

Contract Balances

Timing of revenue recognition and cash collection may result in billed receivables, unbilled receivables (contract assets), and deferred revenue (contract liabilities) on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Corporation’s contract assets primarily relate to its rights to consideration for work completed but not billed as of the reporting date. Contract assets are transferred to billed receivables when the rights to consideration become unconditional. This is typical in situations where amounts are billed as work progresses in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms or upon achievement of contractual milestones. The Corporation’s contract liabilities primarily consist of customer advances received prior to revenue being earned. Revenue recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 included in the contract liabilities balance as of January 1, 2026 was approximately $49 million and $326 million, respectively. Revenue recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 included in the contract liabilities balance as of January 1, 2025 was approximately $65 million and $276 million, respectively. Contract assets and contract liabilities are reported in the "Receivables, net" and "Deferred revenue" lines, respectively, within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

3. RECEIVABLES

Receivables primarily include amounts billed to customers, unbilled charges on long-term contracts consisting of amounts recognized as sales but not billed, and other receivables. Substantially all amounts of unbilled receivables are expected to be billed and collected within one year. The amount of claims and unapproved change orders within our receivables balances are immaterial.

The composition of receivables is as follows:

4. INVENTORIES

Inventoried costs contain amounts relating to long-term contracts and programs with long production cycles, a portion of which will not be realized within one year. Long-term contract inventory includes an immaterial amount of claims or other similar items subject to uncertainty concerning their determination or realization. Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value.

The composition of inventories is as follows:

5. GOODWILL

The Corporation accounts for acquisitions by assigning the purchase price to acquired tangible and intangible assets and liabilities assumed. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their fair values, and the excess of the purchase price over the amounts assigned is recorded as goodwill.

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 are as follows:

6. OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS, NET

Intangible assets are generally the result of acquisitions and consist primarily of purchased technology and customer related intangibles. Intangible assets are amortized over useful lives that range between 1 to 20 years.

The following tables present the cumulative composition of the Corporation’s intangible assets:

(1)Programs include values assigned to major programs of acquired businesses and represent the aggregate value associated with the customer relationships, contracts, technology, and trademarks underlying the associated program.

Total intangible amortization expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was $45 million, as compared to $54 million in the comparable prior year period. The estimated future amortization expense of intangible assets over the next five years is as follows:

7. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Debt

The estimated fair value amounts were determined by the Corporation using available market information that is primarily based on quoted market prices for the same or similar issuances as of September 30, 2026. Accordingly, all of the Corporation’s debt is valued as a Level 2 financial instrument. The fair values described below may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, the use of different methodologies to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date.

Revolving Credit Agreement

In May 2026, the Corporation terminated its existing credit agreement, which was set to expire in May 2027, and entered into a new credit agreement (“Credit Agreement”) with a syndicate of financial institutions. The Credit Agreement, which is set to expire in May 2031, increases the size of the Corporation’s revolving credit facility to $1 billion, and expands the accordion feature to $500 million. The proceeds available under the Credit Agreement are to be used for general corporate purposes, which may include the funding of possible future acquisitions or supporting internal growth initiatives. The new agreement provides for similar financial and debt covenants that are no more restrictive than those in the prior agreement.

8. PENSION PLANS

Defined Benefit Pension Plans

The following table is a consolidated disclosure of all domestic and foreign defined benefit pension plans as described in the Corporation’s 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC.

The components of net periodic pension cost/(benefit) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 were as follows:

The Corporation did not make any contributions to the Curtiss-Wright Pension Plan during the nine months ended September 30, 2026, and does not expect to do so throughout the remainder of the year. Contributions to the foreign benefit plans are not expected to be material in 2026.

During both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, respectively, the Company recognized settlement charges related to the retirement of former employees. The settlement charges represent events that are accounted for under guidance on employers’ accounting for settlements and curtailments of defined benefit pension plans.

Defined Contribution Retirement Plan

The Company also maintains a defined contribution plan for all non-union employees who are not currently receiving final or career average pay benefits for its U.S. subsidiaries. The employer contributions include both employer match and non-elective contribution components up to a maximum employer contribution of 7% of eligible compensation. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, the expense relating to the plan was $7 million and $25 million, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the expense relating to the plan was $6 million and $22 million, respectively.

9. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Diluted earnings per share was computed based on the weighted-average number of shares outstanding plus all potentially dilutive common shares. A reconciliation of basic to diluted shares used in the earnings per share calculation is as follows:

There were approximately 9,000 anti-dilutive equity-based awards issuable under equity-based awards that were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2026, as they were anti-dilutive based on the average stock price during the period. There wereno anti-dilutive shares for the three months ended September 30, 2025. There were approximately 13,000 and 5,000 anti-dilutive shares for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, respectively.

10. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Corporation’s segments are composed of similar product groupings that serve the same or similar end markets. Based on this approach, the Corporation hasthree reportable segments: Aerospace & Industrial, Defense Electronics, and Naval & Power. The Corporation’s measure of segment profit or loss is operating income. Interest expense and income taxes are not reported on an operating segment basis as they are not considered in the segments’ performance evaluation by the Corporation’s chief operating decision-maker, its Chief Executive Officer.

Operating results by reportable segment were as follows:

(1) Corporate and Eliminations includes pension expense, environmental remediation and administrative expenses, legal, and other expenses.

(2) Other segment items includes restructuring expenses associated with the 2026 Restructuring Program in the current period and 2024 Restructuring Program in the prior period.

(3) Amount is net of grant proceeds for property, plant, and equipment. Refer to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for more information.

Adjustments to reconcile operating income to earnings before income taxes are as follows:

11. ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)

The cumulative balance of each component of accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI), net of tax, is as follows:

(1) All amounts are after tax.

12. CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS

From time to time, the Corporation is involved in legal proceedings that are incidental to the operation of its business. Some of these proceedings allege damages relating to asbestos and environmental exposures, intellectual property matters, copyright infringement, personal injury claims, employment and employee benefit matters, government contract issues, commercial or contractual disputes, and acquisitions or divestitures. The Corporation continues to defend vigorously against all claims. Although the ultimate outcome of any legal matter cannot be predicted with certainty, based on present information, including assessment of the merits of the particular claim, as well as current accruals and insurance coverage, the Corporation does not believe that the disposition of any of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on its condensed consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

Legal Proceedings

The Corporation has been named in a number of lawsuits that allege injury from exposure to asbestos. To date, the Corporation has not been found liable for or paid any material sum of money in settlement in any asbestos-related case. The Corporation believes its minimal use of asbestos in its past operations as well as its acquired businesses’ operations and the relatively non-friable condition of asbestos in its historical products makes it unlikely that it will face material liability in any asbestos litigation, whether individually or in the aggregate. The Corporation maintains insurance coverage and indemnification agreements for these potential liabilities and believes adequate coverage exists to cover any unanticipated asbestos liability.

Letters of Credit and Other Financial Arrangements

The Corporation enters into standby letters of credit agreements and guarantees with financial institutions and customers primarily relating to guarantees of repayment, future performance on certain contracts to provide products and services, and to secure advance payments from certain international customers. As of both September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were $25 million of stand-by letters of credit outstanding, respectively. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were $22 million and $12 million of bank guarantees outstanding, respectively. In addition, the Corporation is required to provide the Nuclear Regulatory Commission financial assurance demonstrating its ability to cover the cost of decommissioning its Cheswick, Pennsylvania facility upon closure, though the Corporation does not intend to close this facility. The Corporation has provided this financial assurance in the form of a $40 million surety bond.
