Insights

CPI Aero won $10.2< money>$ million in new Air Force orders, raising funded IDIQ awards to $61.1< money>$ million and extending deliveries into 2028.

The award increases the funded value under an existing IDIQ up to a $61.1 million funded total against a ceiling of $65.7 million, and covers structural modification kits, program management, logistics, and sustainment for the T-38 PCIII and TRIM efforts. This directly converts into near‑term funded revenue and supports deliveries within the current performance period into 2028.

Key dependencies and risks include continued task orders under the IDIQ, timing of kit deliveries, and performance milestones tied to U.S. Air Force schedules; the release explicitly ties work to extending T-38 service life beyond 2030. Watch award execution, quarterly revenue recognition, and any announcements that move the funded total toward the contract ceiling in the next 12–36 months.

- Increases Funded Orders under Previously Awarded Multi-year Contract to $61.1 million

EDGEWOOD, N.Y., Oct. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CPI Aerostructures, Inc. (“CPI Aero®” or the “Company”) (NYSE American: CVU) announced that it has received multiple purchase orders totaling $10.2 million under a previously announced Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract from the U.S. Air Force valued at up to $65.7 million to provide structural modification kits, program management, logistics, and other sustainment services in support of Phase 3 of the T-38C Pacer Classic III Fuselage Structural Modification Kit Integration program (“PCIII”) and the Talon Repair Inspection and Maintenance (“TRIM”) program. The new purchase orders bring the total funded value of the contract to $61.1 million and support additional kit deliveries within the currently funded period of performance into 2028.

The PCIII and TRIM programs give the aircraft a structural makeover that extends the service life of the aircraft beyond 2030.

“CPI is in our seventh year providing critical Kitting and Supply Chain Management services to the U.S. Air Force in support of the T-38 and its critical pilot training mission. We are proud to be an integral part of the T-38 program and to continue delivering on our commitment to the Warfighter,” commented Dorith Hakim, president and chief executive officer of CPI Aero.
