**Item 8.01 Other Events**

On November 20, 2025, Curtiss-Wright Corporation's (the "Company") Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to an additional $416 million of its common stock. The total available authorization is $550 million, including $134 million of remaining availability under the Company's previously announced share repurchase authorizations.

Share repurchases may be made through a variety of methods, which could include open market purchases, accelerated share repurchase transactions, negotiated block transactions, 10b5-1 plans, other transactions that may be structured through investment banking institutions or privately negotiated, or a combination of the foregoing. The repurchase authorization does not have an expiration date and may be amended, discontinued, or terminated by the Company's Board of Directors at any time without prior notice. The timing, price, and volume of share repurchases will depend on market conditions, relevant securities laws, and corporate, tax, regulatory and other relevant considerations. The Company presently expects to repurchase outstanding shares from time to time to offset the dilutive impact of employee equity-based compensation plans, but the Company also may make discretionary, opportunistic share repurchases.

On November 20, 2025, the Company adopted two written trading plans under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). The Company implemented these written trading plans in connection with the above-mentioned and also previously announced share repurchase programs.

The first trading plan will include purchases in the total amount of $60 million executed equally over the course of calendar year 2026. This written trading plan will take effect on January 2, 2026, and will cease on December 31, 2026.

The second trading plan includes potential purchases in the total amount of $100 million. The Company cannot predict when or if it will purchase any shares of common stock as such plan includes a price limit where the Company would not buy shares under the Rule 10b5-1 plan. This written trading plan will take effect on January 2, 2026 and will cease on December 31, 2026.

Adopting a trading plan that satisfies the conditions of Rule 10b5-1 allows a company to repurchase its shares at times when it might otherwise be prevented from doing so due to self-imposed trading blackout periods or pursuant to insider trading laws. A broker selected by the Company will have the authority under the terms and limitations specified in the plan to repurchase shares on the Company's behalf in accordance with the terms of the plan. After the expiration of the current trading plans, the Company may from time to time enter subsequent trading plans under Rule 10b5-1 to facilitate the repurchase of its common stock pursuant to its share repurchase program.

Information regarding share repurchases will be available in the Company's periodic reports on Form 10-Q and 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as required by the applicable rules of the Exchange Act.

This report contains forward-looking information, as that term is defined under the Exchange Act, including information regarding purchases by the Company of its common stock pursuant to a 10b5-1 trading plan. By their nature, forward-looking information and statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and contingencies, including changes in price and volume and the volatility of the Company's common stock; adverse developments affecting either or both of prices and trading of exchange-traded securities, including securities listed on the New York Stock Exchange; and unexpected or otherwise unplanned or alternative requirements with respect to the capital investments of the Company. The Company's 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 13, 2025, as well as our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the third quarter filed on November 6, 2025, includes information regarding other risk factors and cautionary information. The Company does not undertake to update any forward-looking statements or information, including those contained in this report.

On November 20, 2025, the Company issued a press release announcing the above-described transactions. A copy of the press release is furnished with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated into this Item 8.01 by reference.

**CURTISS-WRIGHT INCREASES SHARE REPURCHASE AUTHORIZATION TO $550 MILLION AND DECLARES DIVIDEND OF $0.24 PER SHARE FOR COMMON STOCK**

**DAVIDSON, N.C.– November 20, 2025** -- Curtiss-Wright Corporation (NYSE: CW) today announced that the Board of Directors has authorized an additional $416 million for future share repurchases, increasing the total available authorization to $550 million, and declared a quarterly dividend of twenty-four cents ($0.24) per share, payable December 12, 2025, to stockholders of record as of November 28, 2025.

Since August, the Company has executed two separate $200 million expansions of its 2025 share repurchase program, and expects to minimally repurchase $66 million in shares via ongoing 10b5-1 programs this year. As a result, the Company expects record annual share repurchases of $466 million in 2025. Since early 2021, the Company has returned in excess of $1.1 billion via share repurchases to its shareholders.

"Curtiss-Wright continues to execute its Pivot to Growth strategy, and remains on track to deliver both record financial performance and record share repurchases in 2025," said Lynn M. Bamford, Chair and CEO of Curtiss-Wright Corporation. "This meaningful increase in share repurchase authorization reflects our Board of Directors' continued confidence in Curtiss-Wright's healthy balance sheet and consistent free cash flow generation. Additionally, through our disciplined capital allocation strategy, we remain committed to pursuing strategic acquisitions as an accelerator to organic growth, targeting operational investments with the highest returns, and returning capital to our shareholders to drive long-term shareholder value."

Beginning in January 2026, the Company expects to repurchase $60 million in shares via a 10b5-1 program, which is expected to offset potential dilution from compensation plans.
