SUPPLEMENT TO PROXY STATEMENT
RELATED TO ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
TO BE HELD ON MAY 14, 2026
This proxy statement supplement, dated May 8, 2026 (this “supplement”), is furnished to the holders of common stock of Hexcel Corporation (“Hexcel,”
the “company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) in connection with the solicitation of proxies by Hexcel on behalf of the board of directors of the company (the “board of directors” or the “board”) for use at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders, or any
adjournments or postponements thereof, to be held on May 14, 2026 (the “Annual Meeting”). This supplement is being filed with the SEC and will be made available to stockholders at www.proxyvote.com.
The purpose of this supplement is solely to update the biographical information in the proxy statement for Nick L. Stanage, a member of our board, who
is standing for re-election at the Annual Meeting. On May 7, 2026, the board of directors of AMETEK, Inc. (“AMETEK”), a publicly-traded global provider of industrial technology solutions, appointed Mr. Stanage to serve as a director of AMETEK.
Except as described in this supplement, none of the items or information presented in the proxy statement is affected by this supplement. This
supplement does not provide all of the information that is important to your voting decisions at the Annual Meeting. The proxy statement contains other important additional information. We encourage you to carefully read this supplement together
with the proxy statement, including the rest of Mr. Stanage’s biography on page 10 of the proxy statement.
If you have already submitted your proxy, you do
not need to take any action unless you wish to change your vote. This supplement does not change the proposals to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting, which are described in the proxy statement.
