BETHESDA, Md., Oct. 22, 2024 – Lockheed Martin Corporation [NYSE: LMT] today reported third quarter 2024 net sales of $17.1 billion, compared to $16.9 billion in the third quarter of 2023. Net earnings in the third quarter of 2024 were $1.6 billion, or $6.80 per share, compared to $1.7 billion, or $6.73 per share, in the third quarter of 2023. Cash from operations was $2.4 billion in the third quarter of 2024, compared to $2.9 billion in the third quarter of 2023. Free cash flow was $2.1 billion in the third quarter of 2024, compared to $2.5 billion in the third quarter of 2023.

"In the third quarter, we advanced our strategic, operational and financial priorities, as demonstrated by our record backlog of more than $165 billion, 48 F-35 deliveries, increased production on missile programs, and $2.1 billion of free cash flow generation,” said Lockheed Martin Chairman, President and CEO Jim Taiclet.

"As a result of our strong year-to-date results and confidence in our near-term performance, we are raising the outlook for full year 2024 sales, segment operating profit, EPS and free cash flow. Looking forward, we continue to make progress on the three key initiatives of our 21st Century Security® strategy of strengthening the resiliency and scalability of our production system, accelerating cutting edge digital and physical technologies into all our mission solutions and our internal operations, and expanding international partnerships to broaden our production capacity and drive more international sales. We are making substantial investments in these areas, while continuing to focus on our fundamental financial objective of driving free cash flow per share growth to generate returns for shareholders.

F-35 Lots 18-19 Contract Update

The company remains in negotiations with the U.S. Government on the Lots 18-19 production contract. Although negotiations for this contract are in process, the company has been performing work on Lots 18-19 production under initial customer authorization and funding to begin work pursuant to an advance acquisition contract received in the fourth quarter of 2023. The company and its industry team continue work in an effort to meet the customer’s desired aircraft delivery dates for the Lots 18-19 aircraft. The company's costs began to exceed the advanced acquisition contract value in the third quarter of 2024. As a result, the company was unable to recognize revenue and profit on approximately $400 million of costs incurred on the program in the third quarter of 2024, with at least an additional $300 million of impacts across the supply chain. Additionally, the company was prevented from invoicing and receiving cash of approximately $450 million through the third quarter of 2024. At the end of the third quarter of 2024, the company also had approximately $2 billion in potential termination liability exposure to third parties related to Lots 18-19 (some of which would be recoverable in the unlikely event of a termination). Currently, the company expects to receive contractual authorization and funding on the Lots 18-19 production contract with the U.S. Government and resume invoicing costs incurred and recover sales, profit, and cash in the fourth quarter of 2024. However, until a final agreement is reached, or the U.S. Government otherwise provides additional contractual authorization and funding, the company’s results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition will continue to be negatively impacted, and the impacts could be material and differ from the company's current 2024 outlook.

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 or discretionary contributions, 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.

The company’s current 2024 financial outlook is premised on receiving contractual authorization and funding on the F-35 Lots 18-19 production contract in the fourth quarter of 2024.

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.

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 decrease in operating and free cash flows in the third quarter of 2024 compared to the same period in 2023 was primarily due to a decrease in working capital (defined as receivables, contract assets, and inventories less accounts payable and contract liabilities), which includes the cash impacts for the lack of additional contractual authorization and funding from the U.S. Government prior to the end of the third quarter of 2024 on the Lots 18-19 contract of the F-35 program.

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

•paying cash dividends of $749 million; and

•paying $850 million to repurchase 1.5 million shares.

As previously announced on Oct. 2, 2024, the company's board authorized the repurchase of its common stock up to an additional $3.0 billion, increasing the total authorization for potential future common stock repurchases to $10.3 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. 2, 2024, the company authorized a fourth quarter dividend payment of $3.30 per share, representing an increase of $0.15 per share over the prior quarterly dividend payment.

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 20% and 19% of total segment operating profit in the quarters ended Sept. 29, 2024 and Sept. 24, 2023. During the quarter ended Sept. 29, 2024, the company recognized losses of $80 million on a classified program at the company's Aeronautics business segment due to higher than anticipated costs to achieve program objectives.

Aeronautics


(in millions)	Quarters Ended						Nine Months Ended
	Sept. 29, 2024			Sept. 24, 2023			Sept. 29, 2024			Sept. 24, 2023

Operating profit	659			671			2,089			2,064
Operating margin	10.2		%	10.0		%	10.1		%	10.4		%

Aeronautics' net sales in the third quarter of 2024 decreased $230 million, or 3%, compared to the same period in 2023. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower net sales of $480 million on the F-35 program due to lower volume on production contracts as a result of delays in receiving additional contractual authorization and funding under the Lots 18-19 contract. This decrease was partially offset by higher net sales of $120 million on the C-130 program primarily due to higher volume on production and sustainment contracts; and $85 million on the F-16 program due to the ramp up on production.

Aeronautics' operating profit in the third quarter of 2024 decreased $12 million, or 2%, compared to the same period in 2023. The decrease in operating profit was attributable to $25 million from lower volume described above and $20 million from unfavorable contract mix, partially offset by $30 million of higher profit booking rate adjustments. The increase in profit booking rate adjustments 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, partially offset by $80 million of unfavorable profit rate adjustments on a classified program due to higher than anticipated costs to achieve program objectives.

Operating profit	456			398			1,217			1,146
Operating margin	14.4		%	13.5		%	13.1		%	14.2		%

MFC’s net sales in the third quarter of 2024 increased $236 million, or 8%, compared to the same period in 2023. The increase was primarily attributable to higher net sales of $285 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. This increase was partially offset by lower net sales of $90 million for integrated air and missile defense programs due to lower volume on Patriot Advanced Capability-3 (PAC-3) and Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD).

MFC’s operating profit in the third quarter of 2024 increased $58 million, or 15%, compared to the same period in 2023. The increase in operating profit was attributable to $35 million of higher profit booking rate adjustments and $20 million from volume described above. The increase in profit booking rate adjustments was primarily due to higher favorable profit rate adjustments on PAC-3 as a result of better than anticipated cost performance.

Rotary and Mission Systems

Operating profit	483			482			1,408			1,286
Operating margin	11.1		%	11.7		%	10.8		%	11.2		%

RMS' net sales in the third quarter of 2024 increased $246 million, or 6%, compared to the same period in 2023. The increase was primarily attributable to higher net sales of $185 million on integrated warfare systems and sensors (IWSS) programs due to higher volume on radar programs and the Canadian Surface Combatant (CSC) program; and $50 million for Sikorsky helicopter programs due to higher production volume on CH-53K, Seahawk and Black Hawk programs.

RMS' operating profit in the third quarter of 2024 was comparable to the same period in 2023 as a $25 million increase due to the higher volume described above was offset by $25 million of lower profit booking rate adjustments. The decrease in profit booking rate adjustments was primarily due to a reach-forward loss recognized on a radar program as a result of additional quantity ordering risk identified on fixed-price options.

Space

Space's net sales in the third quarter of 2024 decreased $26 million, or 1%, compared to the same period in 2023. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower net sales of $50 million for commercial civil space due to lower volume on the Orion program, partially offset by higher volume on other space exploration programs. This decrease was partially offset by higher net sales of $25 million for strategic and missile defense programs due to higher volume on reentry programs.

Space's operating profit in the third quarter of 2024 increased $13 million, or 5%, compared to the same period in 2023. The increase in operating profit was attributable to $25 million related to favorable contract mix across the portfolio, partially offset by $10 million of lower equity earnings driven by lower launch volume from the company's investment in United Launch Alliance (ULA). Profit booking rate adjustments were comparable.

Total equity earnings (ULA) represented approximately $5 million, or 2% of Space's operating profit in the third quarter of 2024, compared to approximately $15 million, or 6% for the same period in 2023.

Income Taxes

The company's effective income tax rate was 15.4% and 13.8% for the quarters ended Sept. 29, 2024 and Sept. 24, 2023. The rate for the third quarter of 2024 was higher than the third quarter of 2023 primarily due to additional research and development tax credits that were claimed for years prior to 2023 reflected in the 2023 rate. 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.

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:
