TransDigm Group Incorporated (TDG - Free Report) is a leading global designer, producer and supplier of highly engineered aircraft components that are used in in-service commercial and military aircraft. The company has an extensive portfolio of proprietary products, which boosts its competitive position.
TransDigm is seeing some negative trends at present, like weaker defense aftermarket orders and soft business jet, helicopter and freighter revenues, which is hurting its prospects. Softness in global macroeconomic conditions is impacting air travel, adding to the company’s woes. The company has some concerns about the commercial transport industry in the coming times as well. These factors have been hurting its financials in recent times.
On the positive side, about 90% of TDG’s sales are generated by proprietary products, that is, products for which the company owns the intellectual property. This translates into consistent and sustained revenue generation capacity through all phases of the aerospace cycle.
The company has had a robust earnings history. It has trumped the Zacks Consensus Estimate each time in the trailing four quarters, with an average positive surprise of 3.7%.
