| Significant Accounting Policies | Note 1 — Significant Accounting Policies In these notes, the terms “Hexcel,” “the Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” mean Hexcel Corporation and subsidiary companies. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are those of Hexcel Corporation. Refer to Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 for a discussion of our significant accounting policies. Basis of Presentation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared from the unaudited accounting records of Hexcel pursuant to rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements have been omitted pursuant to rules and regulations of the SEC. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements include all normal recurring adjustments as well as any non-recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the statement of financial position, results of operations, cash flows and statement of stockholders’ equity for the interim periods presented. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2024 was derived from the audited 2024 consolidated balance sheet. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results expected for any other interim period or for the full year. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale During the third quarter of 2025, the Company completed the divestiture of its operations in Austria and recognized a charge of $3.4 million, which was recorded in Other operating expense, on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Previously, during the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company announced it was exploring strategic options for its operations in Austria and undergoing a process to find a suitable successor for the Neumarkt plant. At December 31, 2024, the assets and liabilities of the Austria operations were classified as held for sale. The table below presents the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities:
Recently Issued Accounting Standards In September 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Recognition and Measurement of Internal-Use Software Costs. The amendment modernizes the accounting for internal-use software and enhances the disclosure requirements. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial statement disclosures. New Tax Legislation On July 4, 2025, the U.S. President signed into law H.R.1, the legislation commonly known as the One Big Beautiful Bill (“OBBB”). This legislation extended, modified, or made permanent many of the tax provisions which were initially enacted as part of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) of 2017. The OBBB contains a number of tax provisions including, but not limited to, immediate expensing of domestic research and experimental (R&E) expenditures, modifications to the limitation on business interest, bonus depreciation modifications, as well as international tax provision modifications. These tax provisions apply to either tax years beginning after December 31, 2024 or December 31, 2025. The Company is still in the process of analyzing some of the tax elections under the OBBB which could impact the final effective rate for 2025. However, we do not expect these elections to have a material impact on our effective rate for 2025. |
