Bill Moog started our company on the notion that people could make a better product if they loved what they were doing
and they had the right tools and the freedom to get the job done — even in challenging situations. Fiscal 2020 and the
uncertainties tied to the global pandemic brought out the best in our employees as they adapted to working at home or
working on-site while following advanced safety protocols.
First responders received masks designed and 3D printed by Moog Aircraft employees Adam Hansen and Jamie Daly.
Jamie’s husband Brandon, a 3D printing hobbyist, started the effort. Within a few weeks, and after adding a second
printer and donated supplies, the three were experts and were producing 40 3D printed masks per week, with donations
going to EMTs, police and fire companies, and even the SPCA.
Janette Clark, an attorney working at Moog’s East Aurora headquarters, volunteered for a delivery route for Feed More Western New York when COVID concerns led to
a need for substitute Meals on Wheels drivers. Her weekly route includes deliveries to homebound seniors and individuals with disabilities who may be unable to drive,
safely shop, or prepare their own meals. Janette delivers a hot meal and a quick check-in to the community members on her route two times a week.
In the U.K., donations of face shields and masks designed and produced in Moog’s Tewkesbury, Wolverhampton,
and Reading operations helped local hospitals, care homes, and clinics manage shortages in protective equipment.
Several Moog employees have family working within the U.K. healthcare system, so it was natural that a team from
all three sites would design a high-quality face shield solution to share. Their ultra-comfortable design is also in use
by employees within all three Moog U.K. facilities.
Space and Defense 36-year employee Jean Winiewicz started sewing masks with her daughter Jenna,
a registered nurse in a Buffalo, New York hospital emergency room. In total, they cut out and sewed close to
1,000 non-medical masks and distributed them to co-workers, friends, teachers, and other members of the
community who read their story on social media.
Torrance, California-based design and development engineer Eric Berg studied open source mask 3D designs and then went to work.
Eric’s interest in 3D printing started when he studied electrical and computer engineering at Cornell University. His initial supply
of masks and ear savers, each taking four hours to produce, were donated to a local nursing home. Eric also helped coordinate a
vendor-produced production run of 30,000 injection-molded face shield frames for Save the Frontline, a not-for-profit that
provides PPE to New York’s most vulnerable communities.

C H A I R M A N ’ S L E T T E R
To Our Shareholders, Employees and Friends,
I’d like to open my annual letter, as I’ve always done, by paying tribute to the
13,000 Moog employees around the globe for their dedication and commitment.
This year in particular, their contribution to our success has been immeasurable.
This report is a testimony to their work.
As we all look back on fiscal ’20, we’ll remember it as a year like no other. For the
first half of the year we worried about trade disputes with China and the potential
impact of a hard Brexit. Unrest in the Middle East was also on our radar. Then
COVID hit, and the second half was dominated by our response to the pandemic.
We set two clear priorities to guide our response. First and foremost was the health
and well-being of our employees and their families. And second, to continue to
meet the needs of our customers and thereby secure the financial well-being of the
company. We asked our employees to work from home where possible and adopted
safe practices for production employees working on-site. We set up a task force to
monitor the course of the virus and provide regular guidance. We adjusted our
approach by country and location in response to local conditions. In times of crisis,
leadership comes to the fore, and the Moog leaders around the world did an
outstanding job keeping employees safe and keeping our businesses going.
In addition to leadership, strategy matters in challenging times. For decades, our
company has followed a simple strategy. We are laser focused on our core technology
of high-performance motion control. We bring our technology to a diverse range of
end markets and customers. And, we maintain a prudent financial structure.
This strategy served us well this year. In particular, our diversity across end markets,
and strong balance sheet, ensured that we could weather the pandemic and look
ahead to fiscal ’21 with confidence. Across our three operating groups, we serve
five major end markets: defense, industrial, commercial, space, and medical.
Defense and space combined make up just over half of our business. Both markets
are primarily driven by U.S. government spending and remained very strong
throughout the year. Medical, at 9% of our business, was also strong as demand for
specialty equipment to support the fight against the pandemic buoyed sales.
Industrial markets are 22% of our sales. These markets faced slowdowns as we
went through the year, although the diversity of end customers across the globe
helped alleviate the impact. Our commercial aircraft business was hit very hard
with both the OEM and aftermarket customers feeling the brunt of global travel
restrictions. In the second half of fiscal ’20, our commercial aircraft business made
up just 11% of sales, down from 22% of sales in the first half.
“It was a year of records, divided into two
halves. The first half was characterized by
record sales, record net earnings and
record earnings per share. In the second
half we generated record free cash flow.”
It was a year of records, divided into two halves. The first half was characterized by
record sales, record net earnings and record earnings per share. In the second half we
generated record free cash flow. In response to the pandemic, we shifted our attention
from sales and earnings to leverage and liquidity. We reduced expenses, conserved cash
and restructured parts of our business. As a result of these difficult actions, our financial
situation at the end of the year was stronger than when the pandemic hit.
We refinanced our balance sheet in our first quarter, extending the term of our
revolving credit facility and selling $500 million of high yield bonds at 4.25%.
At the time, we were just following our usual strategy of maintaining a strong
balance sheet. In hindsight, it was brilliant timing, positioning us perfectly to meet
the challenges of the pandemic.
We completed one acquisition early in the year and returned excess capital to our
shareholders through our dividend and buyback programs. We paused these
activities during the third quarter as we assessed the situation, and then as cash
flow improved, we returned to our balanced capital allocation strategy in the fourth
quarter. Over the course of the full fiscal year, we repurchased almost three million
shares of our stock and returned over $240 million to our shareholders.
“It was definitely not the year we planned
for, and to say it was a challenge would be
an understatement. However, our employees
across the globe rose to the occasion and
did an outstanding job managing through
an unprecedented crisis.”
I believe you see the true strength of a company during times of adversity. On that
measure, fiscal ’20 was a record year for our company in every way. It was definitely
not the year we planned for, and to say it was a challenge would be an
understatement. However, our employees across the globe rose to the occasion
and did an outstanding job managing through an unprecedented crisis.
As we look to fiscal ’21, we’re both realistic and optimistic. We’re planning that
COVID could be with us through the full year. In terms of our major markets,
we believe defense and space will remain strong. We also expect our medical
business to be strong, but it may soften slightly after the surge of demand seen in
the initial stages of COVID. We’re not anticipating any recovery in our industrial
markets from the level in the second half of fiscal ’20. We’re hopeful that the
commercial aircraft OEM business will stabilize, and that the aftermarket may see
a modest recovery toward the second half of the year.
Beyond ’21, the future looks very promising. We believe we are well positioned on the
key defense programs which will continue to be supported for the long-term.
The commercial aircraft business will recover, and the industrial sector will emerge from
the present slowdown. Investment in space is growing, both for commercial and defense
applications, and we are positioned to capture an increasing share of this market.
Our medical business is also poised to continue growing as we introduce new products.
No doubt, the collective experience of COVID will change much of how the world
works in the future. However, it will not change our fundamental approach to
business. We will continue our strategy of solving our customers’ most difficult
technical challenges. We will strive to make Moog a great place to work for all of
our employees. We will invest for the long-term, seeking acquisitions which
complement our organic strategy, and return excess capital to shareholders.
We will pursue our three internal initiatives around talent, lean and innovation.
We will work to deliver superior returns to all our stakeholders, and we will stay true
to our values of trust in one another, and collaboration in everything we do.
It has been a great privilege to lead our organization over the last year. It has also
been a humbling experience to understand how little any one leader can do,
and how much the collective culture of an organization determines its success.

Strengthening the Balance Sheet
In December 2019, Moog issued $500 million of 4.25% senior notes that mature
in December 2027, and then redeemed and retired $300 million of 5.25% senior
notes that were set to mature in December 2022. This effort, combined with an
October 2019 amendment to Moog’s U.S. revolving credit facility, completed the
refinancing of debt on the company’s balance sheet and strengthened liquidity
and financial flexibility.
F-35 Lightning II Production Contracts Awarded
Contracts for the primary flight control actuation system, the leading
edge flap drive system, and the wingfold actuation system, were awarded to
Moog by Lockheed Martin for the F-35 Lightning II 5th generation fighter.
The contract value is in excess of $400 million over three years.
Moog provides actuators, power drive electronics, control electronics,
and software. Beyond its substantial role as a production supplier, Moog is
also an established provider of sustainment services for the F-35, both in the
U.S. and globally.
Moog U.K. Site Expands for SL-OMV
Moog’s Reading U.K. Space and Defense site expanded to add a cleanroom
and additional manufacturing capabilities. The location supports new
programs, including the integration and testing of the Small Launch-Orbital
Maneuvering Vehicle (SL-OMV), Moog’s first spacecraft being built for the
U.K. Space Agency. The SL-OMV is a lightweight and low-cost propulsive
adapter that distributes small satellites and CubeSats, deploying multiple
payloads to different orbits. The SL-OMV has its own avionics, power,
green propulsion, and communications systems that are configurable for
short duration missions.
Embraer First Flight
Embraer celebrated the successful first flight of the third variant of its family of
new aircraft. Moog supplies the full fly-by-wire flight control system, consisting of
flight control computers and all the hydraulic actuators of primary surfaces,
spoilers and ground spoilers. Moog supplies the same hardware for the other E2
variants - the E190-E2 and the E195-E2. With a max speed of Mach 0.82 and a
double-digit reduction in fuel burn, the E175-E2 is setting a new standard for fuel
efficiency for an aircraft of its size. Embraer expects to introduce the E175-E2 to
the marketplace in 2023.
Investor Day 2020
Moog held its first investor day virtually in August 2020. Live presentations, presented
in a video format over the internet, were given by Chairman and CEO John Scannell
and members of Moog’s senior management team. The entire webcast and written
transcript are archived at www.moog.com/investors/communications.
SureFly® Assets and Intellectual Property Purchased
Moog completed the purchase of the SureFly® assets and the intellectual
property (IP) associated with the hybrid powered vertical takeoff and landing
(eVTOL) aircraft from Workhorse Group Inc. The air vehicle features composite
construction, distributed electric propulsion technology, simplified vehicle
operator interfaces, and is battery powered. The addition of key technical
personnel and the SureFly IP fits into Moog’s technology roadmap of offerings,
and allows Moog to more rapidly develop and enable safe automation and
electrification of vehicles. Moog engineers will continue to develop and refine
the vehicle systems, while also examining human factors engineering within
the cockpit environment for a whole new class of future vehicles.
Moog Medical Increases Production
Moog’s medical pump businesses experienced significant customer demand
throughout 2020. The Vilnius, Lithuania and Salt Lake City, Utah sites increased
production capacity by 28% for the Infinity ® Teal Enteral feeding pumps, and
31% for Curlin 6000 infusion pumps. In Costa Rica, proprietary set production
capacity increased by over 30% for enteral feeding sets and I.V. administration
sets. Additional production shifts and new manufacturing lines were added to
meet the increased demand while following strict health and safety protocols.
Modular EAS: The Best of Two Worlds
Moog’s Industrial Systems segment introduced a new Modular Electrohydrostatic
Actuation System (EAS) incorporating Electrohydraulic (EH) and Electromechanical
(EM) Actuation. This highly flexible system can be adapted to most types of
industrial manufacturing machinery. The EAS is environmentally clean due to its up
to 90% lower oil requirement when compared to standard systems and offers low
noise emission for quiet machine operation. The EAS is suitable for a wide range
of industrial manufacturing machinery, testing and power generation applications.
Lock and Dam Reconstruction
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers completed a major rehabilitation of the LaGrange
Lock and Dam on the Illinois River, a key point for agricultural commodity shipments.
The lock was dewatered and reconstructed with a new mitre gate mechanism with
Moog Megatork® actuators, a technology solution that had never been used on U.S.
locks. The design incorporates rotary actuators with spindle technology from Moog
Flo-Tork in Ohio. The Army Corps used a Moog technology that is similar to the
technology used to open and close hatches and torpedo bays on submarines.
Balanced Capital Allocation
Moog continued to return excess capital to shareholders through dividends and
a share buyback program in fiscal 2020. The quarterly dividend was paused for a
quarter, but as cash flow visibility improved in the next quarter, the company
returned to its balanced capital allocation strategy. Over the course of the full fiscal
year, almost 3 million shares were repurchased. Between dividends and share
repurchases, over $240 million was returned to shareholders in fiscal 2020.
Strategic Regional Support Center Opened
Moog’s Huntsville, Alabama site investment reflects an ongoing commitment
to support key space, defense, and industrial customers with research,
development and testing activities across the southeastern United States.
Located next to the U.S. Army Materiel Command Headquarters, the center
offers dedicated engineering resources for new programs and Moog’s
growing defense sustainment activities. Huntsville is home to Redstone
Arsenal, NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center and prime industry customers.
Moog Acquires GAT
Moog completed the acquisition of Gesellschaft für Antriebstechnik GmbH and
GAT Inc. (GAT), headquartered in Geisenheim, Germany. GAT is a world leader in
the design and manufacture of high-end fluid rotating unions and slip rings.
The business complements Moog’s core slip ring business with its fluid rotary
product offering, engineering expertise and manufacturing capabilities that
strengthen Moog’s market position. GAT products are used in a variety of
applications including specialty industrial machinery, machine tools, steel mills,
medical products, wind turbines, and precision products used to improve machine
and plant engineering worldwide.
Test Lab Controller Program: Upgrade and Recycle
Moog’s Nieuw-Vennep, Netherlands test engineers released upgraded
software for its recently introduced digital plug-and-play test controller
that offers a platform for testing hydraulic or electric systems of any size.
The design offers one system for strength, fatigue or noise-vibration-
harshness tests and can run complex, months-long automotive tests or
simple checks. Moog’s trade-in program allows for an easy transition
from analog to digital while encouraging safe electronic disposal.
Moog Flight Simulation Services
Moog Shanghai is providing repair and maintenance services, on-site technical
support, and remote consulting services for China Eastern Airlines’ recently
opened flight training center. Simulators at the center are supplied by CAE,
a leading manufacturer of civil full flight simulators, and are equipped with Moog
electromechanical actuators and controls. Full flight simulators provide pilots with
the various sensations associated with flying, to simulate an immersive, high
fidelity pilot training experience. Since opening in late 2019, Moog’s Shanghai-
based service technicians have provided aftermarket support to customers across
China, where over 90% of Level D flight simulators include Moog products.

U.S. Army Future Vertical Lift
The Army is utilizing a pioneering acquisition strategy to develop, procure, field and replace its rotorcraft fleet – light scout to heavy lift. The FVL replacement effort includes
the Army’s UH-60 Black Hawk, OH-58D Kiowa Warrior, AH-64 Apache attack helicopter, CH-47 Chinook heavy-lift helicopter, and UH-72 Lakota light utility helicopter.
Current efforts are focused on the light-scout Future Attack Reconnaissance Aircraft (FARA), and the medium-lift Future Long-Range Assault Aircraft (FLRAA).
FARA: Future Attack Reconnaissance Aircraft
Mission: Scouting out-front and flying into contested environments requires a high-performance aircraft with intelligence. Production by
2028 replaces some AH-64 Apaches and fills a capability gap left by the OH-64 Kiowa retirement. Approximate quantity is 500 aircraft.
In 2020, after assessing five initial designs, the Army chose Textron Bell and Sikorsky, a Lockheed Martin company, to build prototypes
to compete in a 2023 fly-off competition for the production award contract.
• Textron Bell’s 360 Invictus, a conventional design with small wings for added lift, features Moog hydraulic flight control actuation and
a Moog flight control computer.
• Lockheed-Sikorsky’s Raider X® is a compound helicopter with coaxial rotors and a pusher propeller for added thrust. Moog content
includes the electromechanical tail actuation, and actuator control unit (ACU) electronics, for the rudder, elevator and prop pitch.
FLRAA: Future Long-Range Attack and Assault Aircraft
Mission: Fly fast, fly low, land quickly, and deliver troops and depart tight quarters. Replacement for the UH-60 Black Hawk; approximately
2,500 aircraft to be fielded by 2030 with the aircraft build plan extending to 2053.
In March 2020, Textron Bell and a joint Sikorsky-Boeing team were selected for a competitive demonstration and risk reduction effort.
Lessons learned from the ongoing Joint Multi-Role Technology Demonstrator (JMR-TD) program will be incorporated in the Competitive
Demonstration and Risk phase to develop a mature design prior to final selection.
• Bell’s FLRAA aircraft design, the V-280 Valor, features Moog hydraulic flight control actuation and a Moog flight control computer.

Red Planet Exploration: Perseverance Rover Mission
Courtesy of NASA
Building on the success of the 2012 Mars Curiosity Rover Mission, the Perseverance Rover Mission is NASA JPL’s latest Mars exploration effort. Lift-off was on
July 30, 2020 from Cape Canaveral, Florida. A United Launch Alliance (ULA) Atlas V rocket carried the Rover spacecraft into low Earth orbit.
Moog is supporting the mission with critical components and systems. Steering the Atlas V’s RL-10 rocket engines is a Moog Thrust Vector Control System. A pair
of electromechanical actuators and a digital, radiation-tolerant controller help to aim the thrust of the engine while Moog isolation valves control propellant flow.
Eight MONARC 5 monopropellant rocket engine assemblies maintain and fine-tune the spacecraft’s path during its cruise to Mars, to ensure Perseverance
completes its seven-month journey to the red planet.
Entry, descent, and landing (EDL) begins when the aeroshell reaches the top of the Martian atmosphere and ends approximately seven minutes later,
with Perseverance stationary on the Martian surface, ready to explore. During the EDL phase, Moog’s Throttle Valve Assembly plays a critical role, as it provides
propellant to the descent engines which facilitate the lowering of the Rover to the Martian surface using the spacecraft’s sky-crane. The Perseverance Rover also
features Moog control valves for its gas dust removal tool. Look for the arrival and landing on Mars in February 2021.

Green Construction: Bobcat® T76e Electric Prototype
As electrification becomes more popular in the automotive industry, suppliers to the construction industry
are looking to develop zero-emission vehicles. Bobcat customers want a clean, quiet loader that’s rugged,
indoor-use capable, and performs like the company’s popular diesel models. Bobcat contacted Moog
and our innovation team responded with components for an all-electric compact loader prototype. The
T76e has the potential to replace traditional hydraulics and diesel power on construction vehicles.
Introducing zero-emission construction equipment is a solution for some of the industry’s
environmental challenges. Electric-powered vehicles stop running the moment an operator completes
a function, reducing emissions and jobsite noise.
On the full-electric model, source code controls the horsepower, breakout speed, and lifting capacities.
Moog supplies the electric industrial maximum dynamic servo motors, MaxForce electromechanical
actuators, DM2020 servodrives and controllers to move the tracks and bucket, offering precise
positioning in any construction project environment. The right combination of controls and electronics
will someday allow traditional machine owners to digitally tune their equipment, achieving in days
what some equipment owners spend years trying to accomplish with mechanical adjustments.
Designed to comply with environmental regulations, the prototype is part of Bobcat’s electrification
strategy. Production and final rollout to customers is a few years away pending next generation
ruggedization of components and extensive jobsite field-testing.
Moog’s growth and innovation team is dedicated to finding new ways to make the impossible possible,
for customers in a variety of industries using autonomy, digitization and electrification.
