What's Going On With Spirit AeroSystems Shares Premarket Tuesday?

Author: Lekha Gupta | August 13, 2024 09:17am

Spirit AeroSystems Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:SPR) shares are trading lower premarket Tuesday after the company’s CEO, Patrick Shanahan, stated that they will receive a $28.5 million payout following the company’s merger with The Boeing Company (NYSE:BA).

The package includes a $2.3 million cash payment, $26.1 million in restricted stock units, and $45,000 in perks and benefits, as part of a “golden parachute” arrangement, reported Reuters.

Such payments are common in corporate America, designed to incentivize management to proceed with a sale, even at the cost of their own jobs.

Shanahan, a former Boeing executive, is a top candidate for Boeing’s CEO position, currently held by Kelly Ortberg.

Last week, Spirit AeroSystems recently missed Q2 adjusted EPS estimates by 90 cents; sales of $1.50 billion fell short of the $1.59 billion estimate.

Price Action: SPR shares are up 0.97% at $34.18 premarket at the last check Tuesday.
