Rolls-Royce increases price-cuts pressure on suppliers
Rolls-Royce is threatening to withdraw “support” from suppliers who do not agree to price cuts of up to 15 per cent, heightening pressure on a supply chain facing a cash crunch as a result of the abrupt drop in demand amid the pandemic. The British aero-engine maker this month wrote to many of its 700 global aerospace suppliers to demand price cuts of between 5 and 15 per cent, even as it slashes orders to adjust to reduced demand. The letter came days before Rolls-Royce on Thursday announced plans to axe 9,000 jobs — shrinking its global workforce by 17 per cent and its civil aerospace business by a third.

Rolls-Royce to Axe a Fifth of Its Workforce as Boeing and Airbus Scale Back Orders

Reuters VideosRolls-Royce to cut 9,000 jobs amid air travel slump
Rolls-Royce will cut at least 9,000 jobs and could shut some of its factories. The jet-engine maker made the announcement Wednesday (May 20), and said the cuts were to cope with a severe decline in air travel. Aerospace engineering is the key part of Rolls-Royce business. It supplies engines to both Boeing and Airbus, and is paid by airlines based on how many hours they fly. Its earnings are thus certain to take a hit if air travel demand takes years to recover from the global health crisis. Rolls-Royce relies on aerospace for just over half its annual revenues. In 2019, that totalled around 15 billion pounds – or $18 billion. The company said the job cuts would mostly be in its civil aerospace unit, and could generate annual cost savings of around $1.6 billion. CEO Warren East indicated the majority of jobs cuts will be in the UK where most of its aerospace employees are based. In total, Rolls-Royce hires 52,000 people worldwide and stands to lose 17% of its workforce after Wednesday’s announcement.

UK will only consider support for individual aero firms as a last resort - minister

Rolls Royce Braces for Turmoil With 8,000 Jobs on the Line
(Bloomberg) -- Rolls Royce Holdings Plc is likely to be a much smaller company in the coming years with aerospace facing an uncertain future.The company is considering a 15% cut to its workforce as the aviation industry contends with an unprecedented crisis because of the coronavirus pandemic, a person familiar said last week. Senior executives at the maker of jet engines have yet to finalize reductions of that magnitude and talks with labor unions are continuing.The maker of widebody engines is particularly exposed to the fallout of the pandemic. The long-haul flights which use its engines are likely to be the last to recover, meaning the downturn in demand may last for a while. Rolls-Royce had already restructured the business after engine problems but now faces a smaller market with aircraft makers Airbus SE and Boeing Co. both slashing production rates.“Such action at some point appeared inevitable,” said Sandy Morris, an analyst at Jefferies. “We forecast full year group sales down 12%, but civil aerospace revenue down 18% mainly due to lower engine deliveries. The bad news really all happens in 2020.”Rolls-Royce confirmed the likelihood of job cuts without quantifying their possible extent, saying in a statement Friday that further action was needed to reduce spending and strengthen the company. It has promised employees more details before the end of the month.The company’s shares fell as much as 8.3%, and were down 3.4% as of 8:49 a.m. in London. Rolls-Royce has lost about 57% of its market value this year.Worst-Case ScenarioAerospace suppliers around the world are hunkering down for a protracted slump, after Airbus cut production rates by a third as Boeing also slashed its targets. Warren Buffett, whose Berkshire Hathaway Inc. owns supplier Precision Castparts Corp., warned at the company’s annual meeting Saturday that the pain is spreading through the supply chain.“We’re going to have aircraft in this country, we’re going to be flying. But the real question is whether you need a lot of new planes or not and when you’re likely to need them and it affects a lot of people,” Buffett said.Airbus and Boeing both predict a recovery from the crisis will be led by demand for narrow-body planes and have slashed their targets for wide-body programs as a result. Rolls Royce only makes engines for these larger aircraft and makes a large proportion of its revenue from maintenance once the engines are in service.“I would say that 8,000 job losses look like the potential toll from Covid-19, although I would hope that is the worst case,” said Morris.For more articles like this, please visit us at bloomberg.comSubscribe now to stay ahead with the most trusted business news source.©2020 Bloomberg L.P.

Rolls-Royce considering cutting up to 15% of its workforce - source
The company's engines power Airbus SE <AIR.PA> and Boeing Co's <BA.N> widebody jets and Rolls-Royce is paid by airlines based on how many hours its engines fly. The Financial Times earlier reported Rolls-Royce was preparing to lay off up to 8,000 of its 52,000-strong workforce. Last month, Rolls-Royce scrapped its targets and final dividend to shore up its finances to cope with the virus outbreak.
ReutersPlanemakers slow plans for new jets as they focus on survival
Planemakers are drastically slowing work on new projects to save cash as they focus on surviving a downturn expected to last well into this decade, industry sources said. Plane giants Airbus and Boeing are expected to emphasise immediate priorities over long-term plans in financial results on Wednesday, as air travel remains severely disrupted by the coronavirus pandemic. The fresh approach was trailed by Boeing's decision to scrap a $4.2 billion tie-up with Brazil's Embraer, whose engineers had been expected to play a key role in developing the next round of Boeing jets.
