Artisan Partners Limited Partnership - Antero Peak Strategy on Rolls-Royce Holdings PLC
Thesis
Rolls-Royce is held within the strategy's aerospace exposure and continued to benefit from favorable aerospace fundamentals during the quarter. The fund believes years of disruption have damaged aerospace production infrastructure in ways that additional capital cannot rapidly repair. At the same time, defense spending has reached record levels, supporting demand across the aerospace ecosystem. The combination of constrained production capacity and sustained demand creates favorable economics for established aerospace suppliers.
“Rolls-Royce and GE Aerospace continued to benefit from favorable aerospace fundamentals”
