Shares down 2% on lack of upgradesaid the new CEO's plan to boost the company's profitability was moving "at pace", and it was on track to meet 2023 forecasts, buoyed by cost savings and the ongoing travel recovery.
Tufan Erginbilgic, who took over as chief executive in January, has said Rolls, which provides engines for Airbus A350 and Boeing 787 planes, is a "burning platform" which needs to improve its cash generation, cut debt and invest for the future. What the company called its "transformation" was already keeping costs down and finding savings, it said, highlighting the closure of its R2 Factory venture, an artificial intelligence start-up, as an example.
In its civil aerospace unit, the biggest part of the business, Rolls-Royce said flying hours reached 83% of pre-pandemic levels in the four months to April 30, meaning rising revenues from more air travel as airlines pay it on an hours flown basis.
