Lockheed Martin Reports Second Quarter 2024 Financial Results

•Net sales of $18.1 billion, an increase of 9% year over year

•Net earnings of $1.6 billion, or $6.85 per share, inclusive of net non-operational charges of $79 million ($63 million, or $0.26 per share, after-tax)

•Cash from operations of $1.9 billion and free cash flow of $1.5 billion

•$1.6 billion of cash returned to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases

•2024 outlook increased for sales, segment operating profit and earnings per share

BETHESDA, Md., July 23, 2024 – Lockheed Martin Corporation [NYSE: LMT] today reported second quarter 2024 net sales of $18.1 billion, compared to $16.7 billion in the second quarter of 2023. Net earnings in the second quarter of 2024 were $1.6 billion, or $6.85 per share, compared to $1.7 billion, or $6.63 per share, in the second quarter of 2023. Cash from operations was $1.9 billion in the second quarter of 2024, compared to $1.1 billion in the second quarter of 2023. Free cash flow was $1.5 billion in the second quarter of 2024, compared to $771 million in the second quarter of 2023.

“Over the past few months, Lockheed Martin’s people, systems, and platforms have again demonstrated their ability to enhance security in Eastern Europe, the Red Sea, and the Middle East. From the PAC-3’s critical role in air defense, to the Aegis Combat System with AI augmentation, to the F-35 with its advanced sensor and data management capabilities, our company has made major contributions to allied and partner defense. We continue to demonstrate the impact of our 21st Century Security® strategy by harnessing the latest digital technologies to continuously improve mission effectiveness, strengthening and scaling the defense production system, and expanding industrial cooperation among our allies and partners. Consequently, demand for our defense technology solutions remains robust, with a backlog of nearly $160 billion, greater than two times annual revenue,” said Lockheed Martin Chairman, President and CEO Jim Taiclet.

“We delivered strong second quarter financial results, with year-over-year growth of 9% in sales and 10% in segment operating profit, and free cash flow generation in excess of $1.5 billion. The year-to-date performance gives us confidence to raise our 2024 full-year outlook for sales, segment operating profit, and earnings per share. Operationally, the F-35 remains a top priority, and we recently delivered the first Technology Refresh 3-configured aircraft to the customer and anticipate deliveries for 2024 to meet our expected range of 75-110 F-35s. The TR-3 hardware and software update enables step function improvement in capability to our airmen, sailors, and marines, as well as to our partner and allied nations. This foundational upgrade and the follow-on series of enhancements, known as Block 4, are critical steps in ensuring the F-35 remains the most advanced fighter aircraft in the world and the key air vehicle node in the DoD’s joint all domain architecture.”

2024 Financial Outlook

The following table and other sections of this news release contain forward-looking statements, which are based on the company's current expectations. Actual results may differ materially from those projected. It is the company's practice not to incorporate adjustments into its financial outlook for proposed or potential acquisitions, divestitures, ventures, pension risk transfer transactions, financing transactions, changes in law, or new accounting standards until such items have been consummated, enacted or adopted. For additional factors that may impact the company's actual results, refer to the “Forward-Looking Statements” section in this news release.


	(in millions, except per share data)	Current Update	April 2024

	Net sales	$70,500 - $71,500	$68,500 - $70,000

1	Business segment operating profit and free cash flow are non-GAAP measures. See the "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section of this news release for more information.

2	Although the company typically does not update its outlook for proposed changes in law, the above includes the effect of IRS Notice 2023-63 confirming that certain expenditures incurred in the performance of cost-type contracts are not subject to capitalization for tax purposes. The company believes incorporating the clarification from the Notice more accurately reflects its expectations because the Notice describes the tax treatment of certain expenditures in accordance with the company's analysis of the Internal Revenue Code.

Cash Flows and Capital Deployment Activities

The increase in operating and free cash flows in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the same period in 2023 was primarily due to improvements in working capital (defined as receivables, contract assets, and inventories less accounts payable and contract liabilities) and the timing of federal tax payments. Improvements in working capital were driven by volume and timing of milestone payments impacting both contract liabilities and contract assets on classified programs at the company's Space business segment, decreases in inventory due to deliveries of S-70 helicopters at Sikorsky at the company’s RMS business segment, and production and billing cycle timing impacting receivables (primarily F-35 at Aeronautics and Integrated Air and Missile Defense at MFC, partially offset by Integrated warfare systems and sensors at RMS). These improvements were partially offset by the timing of cash payments related to accounts payable (primarily Aeronautics).

The company's cash activities in the second quarter of 2024, included the following:

•paying cash dividends of $752 million;

•paying $850 million to repurchase 1.9 million shares; and

•making a long-term debt scheduled repayment of $168 million.

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.

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, 2023.

The company's consolidated net favorable profit booking rate adjustments represented approximately 21% and 20% of total segment operating profit in the quarters ended June 30, 2024 and June 25, 2023. During the quarter ended June 25, 2023, we recognized a favorable profit adjustment of $65 million on an international surveillance and control program due to the positive resolution of a contractual matter, and an unfavorable profit adjustment of $100 million on the Canadian Maritime Helicopter Program (CMHP) as a result of increased costs and lower than planned revenues.

Aeronautics


(in millions)	Quarters Ended						Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2024			June 25, 2023			June 30, 2024			June 25, 2023
Net sales	$	7,277		$	6,875		$	14,122		$	13,144
Operating profit	751			718			1,430			1,393
Operating margin	10.3		%	10.4		%	10.1		%	10.6		%

Aeronautics' net sales in the second quarter of 2024 increased $402 million, or 6%, compared to the same period in 2023. The increase was primarily attributable to higher net sales of $335 million on the F-35 program due to higher volume on sustainment, development and production contracts; and $105 million on the F-16 program due to the ramp up on production.

Aeronautics' operating profit in the second quarter of 2024 increased $33 million, or 5%, compared to the same period in 2023. The increase in operating profit was attributable to $35 million from higher volume and program ramp up described above and $25 million from favorable contract mix across the portfolio, partially offset by $25 million of lower profit booking rate adjustments. The decrease in profit booking rate adjustments was due to a $45 million unfavorable profit adjustment on a classified program because of higher than anticipated costs to maintain program objectives, partially offset by higher net favorable profit adjustments across the portfolio.

Missiles and Fire Control


(in millions)	Quarters Ended						Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2024			June 25, 2023			June 30, 2024			June 25, 2023
Net sales	$	3,102		$	2,755		$	6,095		$	5,143
Operating profit	450			371			761			748
Operating margin	14.5		%	13.5		%	12.5		%	14.5		%

MFC’s net sales in the second quarter of 2024 increased $347 million, or 13%, compared to the same period in 2023. The increase was primarily attributable to higher net sales of $320 million for tactical and strike missile programs due to production ramp up on Guided Multiple Launch Rocket Systems (GMLRS) and Long Range Anti-Ship Missile (LRASM) programs.

MFC’s operating profit in the second quarter of 2024 increased $79 million, or 21%, compared to the same period in 2023, due to $80 million of higher profit booking rate adjustments which primarily reflects higher favorable profit booking rate adjustments on PAC-3 and Apache due to better than anticipated cost performance. Additionally, operating profit increased $30 million from production ramp up described above, offset by $30 million decrease from contract mix.

Rotary and Mission Systems


(in millions)	Quarters Ended						Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2024			June 25, 2023			June 30, 2024			June 25, 2023

Operating profit	495			454			925			804
Operating margin	10.9		%	11.6		%	10.7		%	10.9		%

RMS' net sales in the second quarter of 2024 increased $651 million, or 17%, compared to the same period in 2023. The increase was primarily attributable to higher net sales of $420 million on integrated warfare systems and sensors (IWSS) programs due to higher volume on radar programs and the Canadian Surface Combatant (CSC) program, and new program ramp up within the laser systems portfolio; and $160 million for Sikorsky helicopter programs due to higher production volume on Black Hawk and CH-53K programs.

RMS' operating profit in the second quarter of 2024 increased $41 million, or 9%, compared to the same period in 2023. The increase in operating profit was attributable to $70 million from higher volume described above, partially offset by $20 million of lower profit booking rate adjustments. The decrease in profit booking rate adjustments was due to unfavorable profit adjustments on Seahawk and Black Hawk production programs as a result of increased costs, partially offset by the net impact in the second quarter of 2023 of both a $65 million favorable profit adjustment on an international surveillance and control program and a $100 million unfavorable profit adjustment on the Canadian Maritime Helicopter Program (CMHP) that did not recur in the second quarter of 2024.

Space

Operating profit	346			312			671			592
Operating margin	10.8		%	9.9		%	10.4		%	9.7		%

Space's net sales in the second quarter of 2024 increased $29 million, or 1%, compared to the same period in 2023. The increase was primarily attributable to higher net sales of $110 million for strategic and missile defense programs due to higher volume on the hypersonics and Fleet Ballistic Missile (FBM) programs; partially offset by lower net sales of $50 million for national security space due to lower volume on classified programs and $45 million for commercial civil space due to lower volume on the Orion program.

Space's operating profit in the second quarter of 2024 increased $34 million, or 11%, compared to the same period in 2023. The increase in operating profit was attributable to $20 million from favorable contract mix across the portfolio and $20 million of higher profit booking rate adjustments. The increase in profit booking rate adjustments was due to higher favorable profit adjustments on the FBM program.

Total equity earnings/(losses) (primarily ULA) represented approximately $10 million, or 3% of Space's operating profit in the second quarter of 2024, compared to approximately $20 million, or 6% for the same period in 2023.

Income Taxes

The company's effective income tax rate was 15.8% and 16.2% for the quarters ended June 30, 2024 and June 25, 2023. The rates for both periods benefited from research and development tax credits, tax deductions for foreign derived intangible income and dividends paid to the company's defined contribution plans with an employee stock ownership plan feature.

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.

Includes impairment and severance charges of $87 million ($69 million, or $0.29 per share, after-tax) for trademark and fixed asset impairments as well as severance costs recorded during the quarter ended June 30, 2024.

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.

Adjusted earnings before income taxes; adjusted net earnings and adjusted diluted EPS

Earnings before income taxes, net earnings and diluted earnings per share (EPS) were impacted by certain non-operational items for all periods. Management believes the presentation of these measures adjusted for the impacts of these non-operational items is useful to investors in understanding the company’s underlying business performance and comparing performance from period to period. The tax effects related to each adjustment that impacted earnings before income taxes are based on a blended tax rate that combines the federal statutory rate of 21% plus an estimated state tax rate.

The table below shows the impact to earnings before income taxes, net earnings and diluted EPS for certain non-operational items:
