Item 7.01

Regulation FD Disclosure
TransDigm Group Incorporated (TransDigm) has provided an interest
rate sensitivity analysis below in Table 1. The analysis reflects
TransDigms current debt structure, interest rate swaps and
interest rate caps and assumes that the LIBO rate used to
calculate TransDigms interest expense grows from 1%, the
assumption on which TransDigms FY 2017 guidance was based, to a
hypothetical 6%.
Subsequent to TransDigms fiscal 2016 fourth quarter earnings call
held on November 14, 2016, TransDigm entered into a new $500
million interest rate swap at a fixed rate of 1.9% and a new $450
million interest rate cap at a fixed rate of 2.5%. The interest
rate sensitivity analysis in Table 1 includes these new
derivatives. Including all current interest rate swaps and
interest rate caps, approximately 75% of TransDigms debt is fixed
or capped.

The following table summarizes TransDigms interest rate
sensitivity including all current interest rate swaps
