Investor Relations

Once upon a time, the soaring ambitions of early 20th-century aviation pioneers Glenn Curtiss and the Wright brothers converged to form Curtiss-Wright Corp. The company emerged in 1929 as a dynamic staple in the aviation and aerospace industry, echoing the innovative spirit and technical prowess of its founders. Today, Curtiss-Wright has evolved far beyond the propellers and pistons of its nascent years, cementing itself as a key player in delivering high-tech engineering solutions. Its operations span a triumvirate of sectors: aerospace and defense, commercial and industrial, and power. With a robust global footprint, the company orchestrates a symphony of advanced technologies and systems, from flight control actuators aboard the latest fighter jets to cutting-edge heat exchange technology used in nuclear power plants.

Curtiss-Wright’s success rhythmicly hinges on its ability to interlace its storied history with modern technological advances, crafting products that solve complex challenges across industries. The company generates its revenues by providing a myriad of highly engineered products and services that cater to both governmental and commercial clients. Its defense and aerospace divisions focus on systems that ensure performance reliability in the sky and on the battlefield, whereas its commercial and industrial segment gears toward efficiency and innovation in energy and transportation. The power segment is particularly noteworthy, offering critical solutions to the nuclear industry, aiming at enhancing plant performance and sustainability. Through strategic acquisitions and a relentless pursuit of innovation, Curtiss-Wright ensures its legacy by continually adapting to the ever-evolving demands of the global market.
