Brandes Small Cap Value Fund Brandes Investment Partners, L.P. | “MTU Aero Engines (XTRA:MTX) continued to surpass market expectations, adding 1.5% to Fund returns this year. With the GTF engine issues nearing resolution, the business has upgraded earnings forecasts multiple times over the past year. Combined with healthy end markets and a valuation that remains very attractive relative to its commercial aerospace peers, MTU continues to be a core Fund holding. BSD Analysis: MTU's leverage to the high-margin engine aftermarket provides resilient cash flows and attractive long-term growth as global flight hours trend higher. Near-term noise around Pratt & Whitney GTF issues has weighed on sentiment, but compensation mechanisms and accelerated shop visits can bolster service revenue over time. The company maintains a strong balance sheet and disciplined capital allocation, supporting investment in next-generation technologies and shareholder returns. Valuation remains below many aerospace peers on forward P/E and EV/EBITDA metrics, despite comparable or better growth prospects. As GTF concerns abate and earnings revisions move higher, the stock has meaningful re-rating potential.” | BULL | Q2 2025 Jun 30, 2025 | View Pitch |
