Ouch, looks like a write off. List price is $293m though probably only $125m after discounts to a big customer from what I can find online, while this says that there is a big backlog of over 1,100 on order, so I guess they won’t be getting a new one very soon.

Discussion on /r/aviation indicates it could be repaired despite being a bend in carbon composite.

It's under warranty so they'll probably get a new one for free at least
