STAMFORD, CT, January 19, 2000 - Hexcel Corporation (NYSE/PCX: HXL) today
reported a net loss for the fourth quarter of 1999 of $2.7 million, or $0.07 per
diluted share, compared with net income of $1.9 million, or $0.05 per diluted
share, for the fourth quarter of 1998. Excluding pre-tax business acquisition
and consolidation expenses of $2.3 million, the adjusted net loss for the fourth
quarter of 1999 was $1.2 million, or $0.03 per diluted share. This compares to
adjusted net income of $9.5 million or $0.25 per diluted share for the same
period in 1998. Adjusted EBITDA for the 1999 fourth quarter was $30.7 million,
compared with $46.1 million a year ago. Hexcel generated free cash flow
(measured as the change in debt net of cash) of $33.6 million in the fourth
quarter of 1999 and $86.8 million for the year, largely as a result of improved
working capital management and the company's lean enterprise initiatives. This
has enabled the company to repay a corresponding amount of debt, consistent with
the debt reduction target reported at the beginning of 1999.
For the year, the net loss was $23.3 million or $0.64 per diluted share,
compared with net income of $49.5 million or $1.22 per diluted share for 1998 on
a pro forma basis, giving effect to the Clark-Schwebel acquisition as if it had
occurred at the beginning of 1998. Excluding pre-tax business acquisition and
consolidation expenses of $20.1 million and a non-recurring $20.0 million
non-cash charge to write-down a joint venture investment, 1999 adjusted net
income was $9.6 million, or $0.26 per diluted share. This compares to pro forma
adjusted net income of $57.6 million or $1.40 per diluted share for 1998.
Adjusted EBITDA for 1999 was $150.4 million, compared with $208.4 million on a
pro forma basis for 1998.

Revenue Trends
Net sales for the fourth quarter of 1999 declined by 11% compared to the
fourth quarter of 1998. For the year, 1999 net sales declined by 7% relative
to 1998 pro forma results. These reductions, which were concentrated in the
company's commercial aerospace segment, reflect the impact of:
o Declining aircraft production rates by The Boeing Company in
anticipation of lower aircraft deliveries in 2000. Hexcel delivers
product into the Boeing supply chain on average about six months prior to
aircraft delivery. Boeing delivered 620 aircraft in 1999, but has
publicly announced that it expects to deliver about 480 aircraft in 2000.
o Inventory adjustments in excess of build rate changes by aerospace
customers in the US, Europe and certain export markets, in connection with
their efforts to improve working capital and reduce manufacturing cycle
times. Although Boeing and some of the company's other customers have
indicated that they do not anticipate further inventory adjustments in
excess of build rate changes, the impact from customers seeking to reduce
inventories as they improve production cycle times and productivity will
continue in 2000.
o Price reductions in early 1999 for certain aerospace products and
electronics fabrics, in response to market conditions.
o Significant increases in the installed capacity of the carbon fiber
industry, which have made it difficult for the company to sell its own
excess carbon fiber capacity. This factor is expected to continue to
limit the growth in sales volumes and prices of the company's carbon
fibers in 2000.
Partially offsetting these negative factors were increased sales of aircraft
interior products and services, improved unit demand for fabrics used in
electronics and ballistic applications, especially in the second half of the
year, and continued growth in the use of composite materials for select
industrial applications. More specifically, the company benefited from:
3
<PAGE>
o A moderate increase in unit sales volumes to the electronics market,
driven by increased demand for lightweight fabrics used in the manufacture
of multi-layer printed circuit boards. The company anticipates that the
demand for lightweight glass fabrics will continue to grow in 2000 and
beyond, fueled by the growth of electronic infrastructure for the internet
and consumer demand for personal electronics devices.
o Increased sales of aramid and specialty fabrics for ballistics
applications, in response to increased demand for lightweight protective
vests by police forces and the US military.
o Growth in the sales of composite materials for wind energy applications,
which nearly doubled from 1998 to 1999, and are expected to continue to
grow in 2000.
o Increased sales of composite materials to the automotive industry,
reflecting the company's development of new product applications for
automotive customers.
Gross Margin and Adjusted Operating Income
Gross margin for the fourth quarter of 1999 was $54.0 million or 20.1% of sales,
compared with $72.1 million or 23.8% of sales in the same quarter of 1998. For
the full year, 1999 gross margin was $242.5 million or 21.1% of sales, while the
comparable pro forma figures for 1998 were $305.3 million and 24.7% of sales.
The primary factors underlying both the fourth quarter and full year declines in
gross margin were the reductions in sales volumes and prices discussed above and
the associated reduction in the absorption of fixed factory costs. These factors
were partially mitigated by reductions in labor and overhead costs, as well as
negotiated reductions in the prices of certain raw materials.
4
<PAGE>
Adjusted operating income for the 1999 fourth quarter was $13.1 million lower
than for the 1998 quarter, and adjusted operating income for the year was $58.2
million lower than the comparable 1998 pro forma results. The impact of lower
gross margins was partially offset by reductions in selling, general and
administrative expenses resulting from personnel reductions and the
reorganization of certain selling and administrative functions in connection
with previously announced business consolidation initiatives.
Chairman's Comments
Commenting on Hexcel's fourth quarter and 1999 results, Mr. John J. Lee,
Chairman and CEO said, "As anticipated, commercial aerospace revenues declined
below 1998 levels, as the impact of Boeing's planned reduction in aircraft
deliveries reduced demand across their supply chain. This reduction was
amplified by the efforts of many of our customers, including Boeing, to lower
their inventory levels and move toward shorter manufacturing cycle times.
Although our customers will continue to seek such improvements in 2000, it
appears that demand for commercial aerospace products has begun to stabilize.
Airbus Industrie has projected a modest increase in aircraft deliveries in 2000,
and Boeing has indicated that it may be able to sustain production at the
current rate of 480 aircraft per year. In addition, increased demand for
regional and business aircraft are creating new opportunities for Hexcel."
Mr. Lee continued, "1999 results also suffered from weak pricing for electronics
fabrics. However, during the second half of the year, demand for electronics
fabrics improved, and additional volume growth is expected in 2000."
"At the same time," Mr. Lee noted, "we reduced our workforce by 811 people in
1999, including 208 in the fourth quarter. As a result, the total reduction in
labor and overhead costs during 1999 was approximately $25 million, and the
estimated annualized benefit of these actions is in excess of $35 million. Cost
reductions and productivity improvements will continue to drive performance
improvements in 2000. As the year progresses, we will continue to benefit from
the actions taken in 1999 and start to accrue the benefits of the new business
consolidation program announced this past September, which is scheduled to be
completed by mid 2001."
5
<PAGE>
"In terms of our balance sheet, we have done an excellent job of reducing our
working capital requirements and controlling capital expenditures. As a result,
the company generated $110.8 million in cash for debt reduction since September
1998, excluding the final installment on the Clark-Schwebel transaction in
December 1998 ($19.0 million) and the cost of issuing our senior subordinated
notes in January 1999 ($9.5 million). This exceeds our goal of generating $100
million in free cash flow for the five quarter period ended December 31, 1999.
Although it is unrealistic to expect free cash flow of this magnitude in 2000,
our lean enterprise initiatives are expected to generate ongoing incremental
improvements in our use of both working capital and capital assets."
"In December, we announced that we had engaged Credit Suisse First Boston to
assist the company in a review of the strategic alternatives for its Engineered
Products business, including a possible sale. The review, which is ongoing, is
part of our ongoing efforts to build the optimal business portfolio for Hexcel
as the world's leading advanced structural materials company."
Mr. Lee concluded: "Looking forward to 2000, we expect less volatility in
customer demand and to continue to realize the benefit of our cost reduction
actions. We anticipate that quarterly EBITDA will start to trend up from the
depressed levels seen in the third and fourth quarter of 1999. This trend should
result in Adjusted EBITDA for the full year of 2000 being comparable to that
earned in 1999. Capital expenditures for the year will be less than $40 million.
6
<PAGE>
We remain focused on generating cash to repay debt. Due to the timing of some of
our expenditures, we expect to use cash in the first quarter, but then
anticipate generating cash over the balance of the year. Our focus in 2000 on
cost reduction and productivity will position the company to benefit in 2001
from the anticipated growth in revenue as military aircraft programs ramp up,
the demand from electrical markets continues to grow, and the continued economic
recovery in Asia prompts increases in wide-body commercial aircraft production."
