Net earnings in the third quarter of 2025 were $1.6 billion, or $6.95 per share, compared to $1.6 billion, or $6.80 per share, in the third quarter of 2024. Cash from operations was $3.7 billion in the third quarter of 2025, compared to $2.4 billion in the third quarter of 2024. Free cash flow was $3.3 billion in the third quarter of 2025, compared to $2.1 billion in the third quarter of 2024. "Based on the effectiveness and reliability of our products and systems, strong demand from Lockheed Martin's customers—both in the United States and among our allies—continues. As a result of this unprecedented demand, we are increasing production capacity significantly across a wide range of our lines of business," said Lockheed Martin Chairman, President, and CEO Jim Taiclet. "Our record $179 billion backlog—more than two and a half years of sales—underscores the trust our customers place in us and underpins our company's long‑term growth prospects. Major contract awards for the CH‑53K and PAC‑3 MSE programs are the largest ever for our Rotary and Mission Systems and Missiles and Fire Control businesses, respectively. Additionally, in close collaboration with our customers, we finalized the contracts covering Lots 18 and 19 of the F‑35 early in the fourth quarter. Lockheed Martin has delivered a record 143 F‑35 Lightning II jets through the end of the third quarter. "Looking ahead, we are investing aggressively in both new digital technologies and physical production capacity needed to meet the top defense priorities of the United States and its allies—and we are doing so in partnership with a number of leading technology partners, large and small. Major national‑defense initiatives like the Golden Dome for America demand proven leadership in a wide range of skills, including integrated air and missile defense, space warfare and highly secure command‑and‑control systems. Lockheed Martin is the capable leader and integrator across industry for these types of initiatives. Moreover, our disciplined capital deployment continues to provide robust, reliable rewards for our shareholders, highlighted by 23 consecutive years of dividend increases. Together, these results reflect a company built for performance today and poised for growth tomorrow."

Cash from operations in the third quarter of 2025 was $3.7 billion with free cash flow of $3.3 billion compared to $2.4 billion with $2.1 billion in free cash flow in the third quarter of 2024. The increase in cash from operations was primarily due to a decrease in working capital driven by the F‑35 Lots 18‑19 contract; and lower tax payments, reflecting the impact of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the Tax Act). The company's cash activities in the quarter ended Sept. 28, 2025, included the following: paying cash dividends of $765 million; paying $1.0 billion to repurchase 2.3 million shares; paying off $1.4 billion of commercial paper; and receiving net proceeds from debt issuances of $1,985 million. As previously announced on Oct. 9, 2025, the company's board authorized the repurchase of its common stock up to an additional $2.0 billion, increasing the total authorization for potential future common stock repurchases to $9.1 billion. The stock repurchase program does not have an expiration date and may be amended or terminated by the board of directors at any time. The amount of shares ultimately purchased and the timing of purchases are at the discretion of management and subject to compliance with applicable law and regulation. Additionally, on Oct. 9, 2025, the company authorized a fourth quarter dividend payment of $3.45 per share, representing an increase of $0.15 per share, or 5%, over the prior quarterly dividend payment. 2025 Financial Outlook The company's financial outlook for 2025 and other sections of this news release contain forward-looking statements, which reflect the company's judgment based on the information available at the time of this news release.

Segment Results The company operates in four business segments organized based on the nature of products and services offered: Aeronautics, Missiles and Fire Control (MFC), Rotary and Mission Systems (RMS) and Space. The following table presents summary operating results of the company's business segments and reconciles these amounts to the company's consolidated financial results. (in millions) Quarters Ended Nine Months Ended Sept. 28, 2025 Sept. 29, 2024 Sept. 28, 2025 Sept. 29, 2024 Sales Aeronautics $ 7,256 $ 6,487 $ 21,733 $ 20,609 Missiles and Fire Control 3,624 3,175 10,430 9,270 Rotary and Mission Systems 4,373 4,367 12,696 13,003 Space 3,356 3,075 9,868 9,539 Total sales $ 18,609 $ 17,104 $ 54,727 $ 52,421 Operating profit Aeronautics $ 682 $ 659 $ 1,304 $ 2,089 Missiles and Fire Control 510 456 1,454 1,217 Rotary and Mission Systems 506 483 855 1,408 Space 331 272 1,072 943 Total business segment operating profit 2,029 1,870 4,685 5,657 Unallocated items FAS/CAS operating adjustment 380 406 1,138 1,218 Impairment and other charges — — (66) (87) Intangible asset amortization expense (70) (61) (197) (183) Other, net (59) (75) (160) (288) Total unallocated items 251 270 715 660 Total consolidated operating profit $ 2,280 $ 2,140 $ 5,400 $ 6,317 For information on factors impacting comparability of the company's segment sales, operating profit and operating margins, see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended Dec. 31, 2024. Consolidated net profit booking rate adjustments increased segment operating profit by approximately $365 million in the quarter ended Sept. 28, 2025. Consolidated net profit booking rate adjustments increased segment operating profit by approximately $375 million in the quarter ended Sept. 29, 2024, which included an $85 million favorable profit rate adjustment for a claim associated with a contract to modernize and install new engines in C-5 Galaxy aircraft and losses of $80 million recognized on a classified program at Aeronautics. Aeronautics (in millions) Quarters Ended Nine Months Ended Sept. 28, 2025 Sept. 29, 2024 Sept. 28, 2025 Sept. 29, 2024 Sales $ 7,256 $ 6,487 $ 21,733 $ 20,609 Operating profit 682 659 1,304 2,089 Operating margin 9.4 % 10.2 % 6.0 % 10.1 % Aeronautics' sales during the quarter ended Sept. 28, 2025 increased $769 million, or 12%, compared to the same period in 2024. This increase was primarily attributable to higher sales of $965 million on the F-35 program due to higher volume on production and sustainment contracts and the delays in receiving additional contractual authorization and funding under the Lots 18-19 contract in the third quarter of 2024. This increase was partially offset by lower sales of $140 million on classified contracts due to lower volume. Aeronautics' operating profit during the quarter ended Sept. 28, 2025 increased $23 million, or 3%, compared to the same period in 2024. This increase was attributable to a $70 million increase from higher volume, as described above, partially offset by a $45 million decrease in profit booking rate adjustments. The decrease in profit booking rate adjustments was primarily due to $40 million of unfavorable profit adjustments on C-130 programs. In addition, profit booking rate adjustments from 2024 that did not recur include a favorable profit rate adjustments of $85 million for a claim associated with a C-5 Galaxy contract and an unfavorable profit rate adjustment of $80 million on a classified program. Missiles and Fire Control (in millions) Quarters Ended Nine Months Ended Sept. 28, 2025 Sept. 29, 2024 Sept. 28, 2025 Sept. 29, 2024 Sales $ 3,624 $ 3,175 $ 10,430 $ 9,270 Operating profit 510 456 1,454 1,217 Operating margin 14.1 % 14.4 % 13.9 % 13.1 % MFC's sales during the quarter ended Sept. 28, 2025 increased $449 million, or 14%, compared to the same period in 2024. This increase was primarily attributable to higher sales of $280 million on tactical and strike missile programs due to production ramp-up on Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missile (JASSM), Long Range Anti-Ship Missile (LRASM) and precision fires programs; and $235 million for integrated air and missile defense programs primarily due to production ramp-up on PAC-3. MFC's operating profit during the quarter ended Sept. 28, 2025 increased $54 million, or 12%, compared to the same period in 2024. This increase was primarily attributable to a $45 million increase from production ramp-up as described above. Rotary and Mission Systems (in millions) Quarters Ended Nine Months Ended Sept. 28, 2025 Sept. 29, 2024 Sept. 28, 2025 Sept. 29, 2024 Sales $ 4,373 $ 4,367 $ 12,696 $ 13,003 Operating profit 506 483 855 1,408 Operating margin 11.6 % 11.1 % 6.7 % 10.8 % RMS' sales during the quarter ended Sept. 28, 2025 were comparable to the same period in 2024. Sales increased $190 million on Sikorsky helicopter programs due to higher production volume on Black Hawk programs and $40 million on various C6ISR programs due to higher volume. These increases were offset by lower sales of $155 million on integrated warfare systems and sensors (IWSS) programs due to lower volume on the Aegis and CSC programs, and $75 million for various training, logistics and simulation (TLS) programs due to lower volume. RMS' operating profit during the quarter ended Sept. 28, 2025 increased $23 million, or 5%, compared to the same period in 2024. This increase was primarily attributable to favorable contract mix at Sikorsky. Space (in millions) Quarters Ended Nine Months Ended Sept. 28, 2025 Sept. 29, 2024 Sept. 28, 2025 Sept. 29, 2024 Sales $ 3,356 $ 3,075 $ 9,868 $ 9,539 Operating profit 331 272 1,072 943 Operating margin 9.9 % 8.8 % 10.9 % 9.9 % Space's sales during the quarter ended Sept. 28, 2025 increased $281 million, or 9%, compared to the same period in 2024. This increase was primarily attributable to higher sales of $160 million for strategic and missile defense programs due to higher volume on the Fleet Ballistic Missile (FBM) and Next Generation Interceptor (NGI) programs; and $70 million on national security space programs due to classified volume. Space's operating profit during the quarter ended Sept. 28, 2025 increased $59 million, or 22%, compared to the same period in 2024. This increase was attributable to two primary factors: a $45 million increase in profit booking rate adjustments and a $20 million increase in volume, as described above. The increase in profit booking rate adjustments was primarily due to higher net favorable profit adjustments on the FBM program. Total equity earnings (ULA) represented approximately $5 million, or 2% of Space's operating profit during both the quarter ended Sept. 28, 2025 and 2024. Income Taxes The company's effective income tax rate was 16.5% and 15.4% for the quarters ended Sept. 28, 2025 and Sept. 29, 2024. The higher effective income tax rate for the quarter ended Sept. 28, 2025 was attributable to the Tax Act primarily driven by lower tax deductions for foreign derived intangible income (FDII) partially offset by the favorable resolution of certain federal income tax audit items with the Internal Revenue Service. The rates for all periods benefited from research and development tax credits, dividends paid to the company's defined contribution plans with an employee stock ownership plan feature, tax deductions for FDII and employee equity awards. Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures This news release contains the following non-generally accepted accounting principles (non-GAAP) financial measures (as defined by U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Regulation G). While management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures may be useful in evaluating the financial performance of the company, this information should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the company's definitions for non-GAAP financial measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies or analysts. Business segment operating profit Business segment operating profit represents operating profit from the company's business segments before unallocated income and expense. This measure is used by the company's senior management in evaluating the performance of its business segments and is a performance goal in the company's annual incentive plan. Business segment operating margin is calculated by dividing business segment operating profit by sales. The table below reconciles the non-GAAP measure business segment operating profit with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, consolidated operating profit. (in millions) Current Update July 2025 Business segment operating profit (non-GAAP) ~$6,675 - $6,725 ~$6,600 - $6,700 FAS/CAS operating adjustment1 ~1,520 ~1,520 Intangible asset amortization expense ~(255) ~(255) Other, net ~(355) ~(335) Consolidated operating profit (GAAP) ~$7,585 - $7,635 ~$7,530 - $7,630 1 Reflects the amount by which total CAS pension cost of $1.6 billion exceeds FAS pension service cost and excludes non-service FAS pension expense. Refer to the supplemental table "Selected Financial Data" included in this news release for a detail of the FAS/CAS operating adjustment. Free cash flow Free cash flow is cash from operations less capital expenditures. The company's capital expenditures are comprised of equipment and facilities infrastructure and information technology (inclusive of costs for the development or purchase of internal-use software that are capitalized). The company uses free cash flow to evaluate its business performance and overall liquidity and it is a performance goal in the company's annual and long-term incentive plans. The company believes free cash flow is a useful measure for investors because it represents the amount of cash generated from operations after reinvesting in the business and that may be available to return to stockholders and creditors (through dividends, stock repurchases and debt repayments) or available to fund acquisitions or other investments. The entire free cash flow amount is not necessarily available for discretionary expenditures, however, because it does not account for certain mandatory expenditures, such as the repayment of maturing debt and future pension contributions.
