In addition, all of our Business Areas continue to develop mission-based solutions that are designed to be integrated into an open architecture using 21st century digital technologies to elevate the deterrence posture of the United States and its allies. We are demonstrating these capabilities in partnership with commercial technology leaders across a number of disciplines. Many of our signature platforms, including geosynchronous orbit infrared-sensing satellites, the F-35, the Aegis radar system, and our submarine combat systems, are being actively incorporated into this architecture, enhancing their effectiveness and attractiveness to our customers for many years to come. We intend to lead our industry into the future, and we're doing it with a constant focus on rewarding our shareholders over the long run in the process."

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 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)	2023 Outlook¹

	Net sales	~$65,000 - $66,000

	Business segment operating profit^{2, 3}	~$7,255 - $7,355

	Total FAS/CAS pension adjustment⁴	~$2,100

	Cash from operations⁴	≥$8,150
	Capital expenditures	~$(1,950)
	Free cash flow^2,4	≥$6,200

1	The company's current 2023 financial outlook does not include any future gains or losses related to changes in valuations of the company's net assets and liabilities for deferred compensation plans or other investments. The outlook assumes continued accelerated payments to suppliers on an as needed basis, with a focus on small and at-risk businesses. In addition, the outlook reflects no significant reduction in customer budgets or changes in priorities, continued support and funding of the company's programs, and a statutory tax rate of 21%. It also includes known impacts to the company and broader defense supply chain based on the company's understanding at the time of this news release and its experience to date.
2	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.
3	Effective Jan. 1, 2023, the company no longer considers amortization expense related to purchased intangible assets in its evaluation of business segment operating performance. As a result, beginning on Jan 1. 2023, intangible asset amortization expense, which was previously included in business segment operating profit, will be reported in unallocated corporate expense within operating income.
4	The total FAS/CAS pension adjustment is presented as a single amount and includes total expected U.S. Government cost accounting standards (CAS) pension cost of approximately $1.7 billion and total expected financial accounting standards (FAS) pension income of approximately $375 million. The company does not expect to make discretionary contributions to its qualified defined benefit pension plans in 2023. For additional detail regarding the pension amounts reported in operating and non-operating results, refer to the supplemental table included at the end of this news release.

Cash Flows and Capital Deployment Activities

Cash from operations in the first quarter of 2023 was $1.6 billion and capital expenditures were $294 million, resulting in free cash flow of $1.3 billion. The increase in operating and free cash flows in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the first quarter of 2022 was primarily due to various changes in working capital, primarily production and billing cycles impacting contract assets and receivables (primarily F-35 program at Aeronautics and missile programs at Missiles and Fire Control (MFC)), partially offset by the timing of cash payments for accounts payable (primarily Aeronautics).

The company's cash activities in the first quarter of 2023, included the following:

paying cash dividends of $784 million; and
paying $500 million to repurchase 1.1 million shares (including 0.2 million shares received upon settlement of an accelerated share repurchase agreement (ASR) in April 2023).

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.

	Total consolidated operating profit	$ 2,037	$ 1,933

1	Effective Jan. 1, 2023, the company reclassed intangible asset amortization expense out of the business segment operating profit and into the unallocated items line item to better align with how management views and manages the business. The 2022 amounts reflect the impact of this change.

Net sales and operating profit of our business segments exclude intersegment sales, cost of sales, and profit as these activities are eliminated in consolidation and not included in management's evaluation of performance of each segment. Business segment operating profit includes our share of earnings or losses from equity method investees as the operating activities of the equity method investees are closely aligned with the operations of our business segments.

Business segment operating profit excludes the FAS/CAS pension operating adjustment, a portion of corporate costs not considered allowable or allocable to contracts with the U.S. Government under the applicable U.S. Government cost accounting standards (CAS) or federal acquisition regulations (FAR), and other items not considered part of management's evaluation of segment operating performance such as a portion of management and administration costs, legal fees and settlements, environmental costs, stock-based compensation expense, retiree benefits, significant severance actions, significant asset impairments, gains or losses from divestitures, intangible asset amortization expense, and other miscellaneous corporate activities. Excluded items are included in the reconciling item "Unallocated items" between operating profit from our business segments and our consolidated operating profit.

Changes in net sales and operating profit generally are expressed in terms of volume. Changes in volume refer to increases or decreases in sales or operating profit resulting from varying production activity levels, deliveries or service levels on individual contracts. Volume changes in segment operating profit are typically based on the current profit booking rate for a particular contract. In addition, comparability of the company's segment sales, operating profit and operating margin may be impacted favorably or unfavorably by changes in profit booking rates on the company's contracts. Increases in profit booking rates, typically referred to as favorable profit adjustments, usually relate to revisions in the estimated total costs to fulfill the performance obligations that reflect improved conditions on a particular contract. Conversely, conditions on a particular contract may deteriorate, resulting in an increase in the estimated total costs to fulfill the performance obligations and a reduction in the profit booking rate and are typically referred to as unfavorable profit adjustments. Increases or decreases in profit booking rates are recognized in the current period and reflect the inception-to-date effect of such changes.

The company's consolidated net favorable profit booking rate adjustments represented approximately 25% and 24% of total segment operating profit in the quarters ended March 26, 2023 and March 27, 2022.

Aeronautics

(in millions)	Quarters Ended
	March 26, 2023	March 27, 2022
Net sales	$ 6,269	$ 6,401
Operating profit	675	679
Operating margin	10.8 %	10.6 %

Aeronautics' net sales in the first quarter of 2023 decreased $132 million, or 2%, compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower net sales of $335 million for the F-35 program due to lower volume on production contracts. This decrease was partially offset by higher sales of $135 million on classified programs due to higher volume and $70 million for the F-16 program due to higher production and sustainment volume.

Aeronautics' operating profit in the first quarter of 2023 was comparable to the same period in 2022. Operating profit for the F-35 program was comparable as lower volume on production contracts was mostly offset by contract mix. Operating profit for the F-16 program was comparable as higher volume on production and sustainment contracts was offset by higher unfavorable profit adjustments on a production contract and sustainment contracts. Total net profit booking rate adjustments were approximately $15 million lower in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022.

Missiles and Fire Control

(in millions)	Quarters Ended
	March 26, 2023	March 27, 2022
Net sales	$ 2,388	$ 2,452
Operating profit	377	385
Operating margin	15.8 %	15.7 %

MFC's net sales in the first quarter of 2023 decreased $64 million, or 3%, compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower net sales of $85 million for sensors and global sustainment programs as net sales for the first quarter of 2022 reflect the impact of a favorable profit adjustment on an international program as a result of a requirements modification that did not recur in the first quarter of 2023; and lower net sales of $60 million for tactical and strike missile programs due to lower volume (Guided Multiple Launch Rocket Systems (GMLRS)). These decreases were partially offset by higher net sales of $70 million for integrated air and missile defense programs due to the impact of higher net favorable profit adjustments (Patriot Advanced Capability-3 (PAC-3)).

MFC's operating profit in the first quarter of 2023 decreased $8 million, or 2%, compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower operating profit of $85 million for sensors and global sustainment programs due to the favorable profit adjustment on an international program in the first quarter of 2022 as described above. This decrease was partially offset by higher operating profit of $60 million for integrated air and missile defense programs due to the impact of higher net favorable profit adjustments (PAC-3). In addition, operating margin was positively impacted when compared to the first quarter of 2022 due to contract mix at tactical and strike missiles. Total net profit booking rate adjustments were approximately $25 million lower in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022.

Rotary and Mission Systems

(in millions)	Quarters Ended
	March 26, 2023	March 27, 2022
Net sales	$ 3,510	$ 3,552
Operating profit	350	406
Operating margin	10.0 %	11.4 %

RMS' net sales in the first quarter of 2023 decreased $42 million, or 1%, compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower net sales of $75 million for Sikorsky helicopter programs due to lower production volume (Black Hawk); and lower net sales of $60 million for various C6ISR (command, control, communications, computers, cyber, combat systems, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance) programs due to lower volume. These decreases were partially offset by higher net sales of $85 million for integrated warfare systems and sensors (IWSS) programs due to higher volume (Aegis and TPY-4 programs).

RMS' operating profit in the first quarter of 2023 decreased $56 million, or 14%, compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower operating profit of $65 million for Sikorsky helicopter programs due to lower production volume, net favorable profit adjustments, and contract mix on the Black Hawk program and unfavorable profit adjustments (CH-53K). Total net profit booking rate adjustments were $35 million lower in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022.

Space

(in millions)	Quarters Ended
	March 26, 2023	March 27, 2022
Net sales	$ 2,959	$ 2,559
Operating profit	280	248
Operating margin	9.5 %	9.7 %

Space's net sales in the first quarter of 2023 increased $400 million, or 16%, compared to the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to higher net sales of $185 million for strategic and missile defense programs due to higher development volume (Next Generation Interceptor (NGI)); higher net sales of $170 million for national security space programs due to higher development volume (classified programs) and the impact of higher net favorable profit adjustments (Next Generation Overhead Persistent Infrared geosynchronous satellites (Next Gen OPIR) and classified programs); and higher net sales of $55 million for commercial civil space programs due to higher volume (Orion).

Space's operating profit in the first quarter of 2023 increased $32 million, or 13%, compared to the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to higher operating profit of $70 million for national security space programs due to the impact of higher net favorable profit adjustments (Next Gen OPIR and classified programs). This increase was partially offset by $45 million of lower equity earnings from the company's investment in United Launch Alliance (ULA) due to lower launch volume and an increase in new product development costs. Total net profit booking rate adjustments were $85 million higher in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022.

Total equity (losses)/earnings (primarily ULA) represented approximately $(15) million, or (5)%, of Space's operating profit in the first quarter of 2023, compared to approximately $30 million, or 12%, in the first quarter of 2022.

Income Taxes

The company's effective income tax rate was 15.3% and 15.9% for quarters ended March 26, 2023 and March 27, 2022. The rates for both periods benefited from research and development tax credits, tax deductions for foreign derived intangible income, dividends paid to the company's defined contribution plans with an employee stock ownership plan feature, and employee equity awards. The rate for the first quarter of 2023 compared to the first quarter of 2022 was lower primarily due to increased research and development tax credits.

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)	2023 Outlook
	Business segment operating profit (non-GAAP)	~$7,255 - $7,355
	FAS/CAS operating adjustment¹	~1,660
	Intangible asset amortization expense	~(245)
	Other, net	~(325)
	Consolidated operating profit (GAAP)	~$8,345 - $8,445

1	Reflects the amount by which expected total CAS pension cost of $1.7 billion, exceeds the expected FAS pension service cost and excludes expected non-service FAS pension income. 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 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.

Total FAS/CAS pension adjustment – adjusted; Total FAS pension income - adjusted

Total FAS/CAS pension adjustment and Total FAS pension income have been adjusted for the noncash, non-operating pension settlement charge recorded in the second quarter 2022. Management believes that the exclusion of the pension settlement charge is useful to understanding the company's underlying business performance and comparing performance from period to period.
