Spirit AeroSystems Holdings, Inc., founded in 1927, is a Defense & Aerospace company based in Wichita, United States. Its directors and officers file their transactions with SEC (Form 4). In the past year (18 October 2025 to 18 October 2026), 20 filings came from 18 insiders.
The filings describe grants, exercises and other transfers rather than trades on the open market. Compensation-driven entries like these are tracked, but they say little about how insiders judge the share price.
Compared with its exchange (5,812 companies, median 19 filings), a count of 20 filings is above the norm. Over the whole record (from 2016), the tally stands at no purchases and 7 sales.
There has been no open-market purchase by an insider of Spirit AeroSystems Holdings, Inc. for at least a year.
For comparison within the same sector, see the insider buying recorded at Heico Corp. These figures are compiled from regulatory filings published by SEC (Form 4). They describe what insiders did and are not a recommendation.

Spirit AeroSystems Holdings, Inc. is a U.S.-based aerospace manufacturing group historically focused on aerostructures for commercial aviation, defense, and aftermarket support. The company was formed in 2005 following the spin-off of Boeing’s Wichita manufacturing operations, giving it a strong industrial base in Kansas. Spirit was headquartered in Wichita, Kansas, United States, and its shares traded on the U.S. market under ticker SPR on NYSE/NASDAQ before the company’s recent corporate reorganization.
Operationally, Spirit’s business was built around three main areas: commercial aerostructures, defense and space, and aftermarket services. Its core competencies include complex, high-value airframe structures such as fuselage sections, pylons, nacelles, and other critical aircraft components. These products support major aircraft platforms, particularly those operated by Boeing and Airbus, which made Spirit one of the most important tier-one aerostructures suppliers in the global aerospace supply chain. The company also maintained an international industrial footprint across North America, Europe, and Asia, reflecting the global nature of its customer base and program exposure.
From a competitive standpoint, Spirit occupied a strategically important but concentrated position. A significant portion of its revenue base depended on a small number of major OEM customers, especially Boeing and Airbus. That customer concentration provided scale and program visibility, but it also exposed Spirit to production-rate volatility, quality-control issues, contract renegotiations, and broader supply-chain disruptions. For investors, this meant Spirit should be analyzed less like a diversified industrial and more like a highly leveraged aerospace platform tied closely to aircraft build rates and OEM execution.
Recent corporate events are the key investment backdrop. In 2025, Spirit announced a divestiture agreement with Airbus and later completed a major transaction in which Boeing acquired Spirit AeroSystems on December 8, 2025. Boeing stated that Spirit’s commercial and aftermarket operations would be integrated into Boeing, while defense-related activities would continue in a more independent structure within the broader Boeing organization. As a result, Spirit no longer functions as a standard standalone listed aerospace supplier. For market participants, the focus has shifted from standalone equity analysis to transaction outcomes, asset integration, and the strategic implications for Boeing’s supply chain and industrial footprint in the United States.
