Equity Bottom-Up

<ul>
<li>IHI's share price has declined 16% on news that Pratt &amp; Whitney would need to ground more planes due to problems with its PW1100 turbofan engines</li>
<li>IHI has a 15% share of the revenue and risk from this program. The new engine was expected to be a major earnings driver over the next several years</li>
<li>We believe that IHI will be forced to revise down OP guidance to a loss. The bigger impact could be on FCF and future capex plans. </li>
</ul>

<li>We look for the new MTP to present a growth outlook in the Aerospace division driven by a recovery in the civilian aircraft market</li>
<li>IHI is a key beneficiary of structural growth themes of higher defense spending and energy transition</li>
<li>We believe that the market has been overly concerned about a growth plateau. At 9x TEV / NTM EBIT, the stock is a bargain versus global peers</li>
