Lockheed Martin Corporation (NYSE:LMT)’s Aeronautics segment saw an increase of $143 million, or 2% YoY, in sales during the quarter ended June 29, 2025. This was mainly because of increased sales of $470 million on the F-35 program as a result of higher volume on production contracts. This increase was partially mitigated by a $360 million unfavorable cumulative adjustment to sales due to the loss on a classified contract. For FY 2025, Lockheed Martin Corporation (NYSE:LMT) expects sales in the range of ~$73,750 million – $74,750 million, and FCF of between ~$6,600 million – $6,800 million.

Lockheed Martin Corporation (NYSE:LMT)’s Missiles and Fire Control segment witnessed an increase of $331 million, or 11% YoY, in sales during the quarter ended June 29, 2025. This was mainly due to higher sales of $330 million on tactical and strike missile programs because of production ramp-up on Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missile (JASSM), Long Range Anti-Ship Missile (LRASM), and precision fires programs.
