On November 14, 2023, CAE issued a press release detailing its second-quarter fiscal year 2024 results, noting that some of the company’s legacy contracts continued to experience significant cost overruns. CAE disclosed that within its Defense and Security (“Defense”) segment, the company intended to “retire legacy contracts most impacted by inflationary pressures” and emphasized that they were “focused on retiring these contracts as quickly as possible and mitigating associated cost pressures.”

Following this announcement, CAE’s stock price dropped $0.85 per share, nearly 4%, closing at $21.07 per share on November 14, 2023.

On February 14, 2024, CAE released another press statement regarding its third-quarter fiscal year 2024 results, identifying “eight distinct legacy contracts” that were firm, fixed-price agreements suffering severe cost overruns due to supply chain disruptions, inflation, and labor shortages. The company indicated that it was “accelerating the retirement of outstanding program risks, primarily linked to certain legacy Defense contracts established before COVID-19 and most affected by economic challenges.” CAE also acknowledged that “[although these contracts represent a small portion of the current business, they have disproportionately impacted overall Defense profitability.”

This news led to a $2.01 per share decline in CAE’s stock price, nearly 10%, closing at $18.91 per share on February 14, 2024.

Finally, after trading closed on May 21, 2024, CAE issued a press release announcing a “re-baselining of its Defense business, Defense impairments, accelerated risk recognition on Legacy Contracts, and the appointment of Nick Leontidis as COO.” The company revealed that it had recorded a $568.0 million non-cash impairment of Defense goodwill, “$90.3 million in unfavorable Defense contract profit adjustments due to accelerated risk recognition on the Legacy Contracts,” and a “$35.7 million impairment of related technology and other non-financial assets principally tied to the Legacy Contracts.”

As a result, CAE’s stock price fell $1.03 per share, over 5%, closing at $18.80 per share on May 22, 2024.
