“And only about a third of our aviation business is OEM, and only a portion of that is Boeing.”
Teledyne sizes its OEM commercial-aviation exposure to Boeing as small, implying limited read-through from Boeing 737 rate changes to Teledyne.
“So we won't see much of a benefit from the OEM Boeing 737MAX rate increase next year, although the demand there continues to be strong, and we received a large order for 737MAX 2026 delivery.”
Teledyne supplies components onto the Boeing 737 MAX and booked a large order for 2026 delivery, tying its aerospace OEM revenue to Boeing's 737 MAX production ramp.

“Qioptiq turned out to be a really good acquisition. It's very interesting. There's a part of it as in the U.S., which are energetics, et cetera, when you separate missiles from what drives them. But then in Europe, especially in the U.K., it's a lot of military applications, which are very closely tied to what FLIR makes.”
Teledyne's recent Qioptiq acquisition is described as performing well, with its UK military optics business being integrated under the FLIR Defense reporting line to leverage overlapping products and customers.
