Hexcel reported second quarter 2025 net sales of $490 million, down 2.1% from $500 million a year earlier, and adjusted diluted EPS of $0.50 versus $0.60. GAAP diluted EPS was $0.17, which included a $24.2 million restructuring charge tied to the closure of its Welkenraedt, Belgium facility. The company left full-year 2025 guidance unchanged, so shareholders are seeing lower quarterly profit without a change to the company's annual forecast.
