Key Figures
Market Reality Check
Peers on Argus
LMT fell 2.89% with several defense peers also weaker (GD -2.05%, NOC -3.51%, HWM -3.65%, TDG -1.67%), while BA gained 1.86%. With no peers in the momentum scanner and mixed moves, trading appears more LMT-specific than a clean sector-wide rotation.
Previous Earnings Reports
| Date | Event | Sentiment | Move | Catalyst |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Jan 29 | FY 2025 earnings | Positive | +4.2% | Strong 2025 growth, record backlog and initial 2026 sales, EPS and FCF outlook. |
| Oct 21 | Q3 2025 earnings | Positive | -3.2% | Higher sales, record backlog, capital returns and raised 2025 guidance. |
| Oct 01 | Q3 2025 webcast notice | Neutral | -0.0% | Announcement of timing and access details for Q3 2025 earnings call. |
| Jul 22 | Q2 2025 earnings | Negative | -10.8% | Program losses, sharply lower EPS and cash flow despite slightly higher sales. |
| Jul 01 | Q2 2025 webcast notice | Neutral | -0.7% | Scheduling and access information for upcoming Q2 2025 earnings call. |
Earnings-related headlines often coincided with downside or volatile reactions: average move over the last 5 earnings-tag events was -2.12%, including one double‑digit drop on weaker results.
Recent earnings history for Lockheed Martin shows mixed but generally cautious reactions. Q2 2025 results with major program losses triggered a -10.81% move, while strong full‑year 2025 results and 2026 guidance on Jan 29, 2026 saw shares gain 4.23%. Other quarters with updated guidance and record backlogs still produced modest declines. Against this backdrop, Q1 2026’s flat sales, lower earnings and sharply weaker cash generation alongside reaffirmed 2026 outlook fit a pattern where investors scrutinize margins, cash flow and program execution even when guidance is maintained.
Historical Comparison
Over the past five earnings-related releases, LMT’s average move was -2.12%. Today’s -2.89% reaction to Q1 2026 results sits slightly weaker but broadly in line with that pattern of cautious earnings-day trading.
Earnings news has tracked a path from Q2 2025 program losses and cash pressure, through stabilizing Q3 2025 results and strong full-year 2025 performance with record backlog, into 2026 where guidance is reaffirmed but quarterly cash flow and margins remain key watch points.
Market Pulse Summary
This announcement highlighted stable Q1 2026 sales of $18.0 billion, lower EPS of $6.44, and a sharp decline in free cash flow to $(291) million, while reaffirming 2026 guidance for sales, EPS and free cash flow of $6.5–$6.8 billion. Investors may compare these trends with prior quarters that featured record backlogs but occasional program losses and cash pressure, watching execution, working capital and segment profitability as key metrics in upcoming results.

"Lockheed Martin's superior capabilities in delivering advanced defense technology and systems and in space exploration have been proven again and again in 2026. Our Orion spacecraft safely carried the crew farther from Earth than ever before during NASA's historic Artemis II mission, concluding with a precisely executed re-entry and splashdown. Our superior fifth generation fighter jets, the F-35 and F-22, continue to operate with great effectiveness in contested and difficult missions. Additionally, our layered missile defense architecture, including phased array radars, Aegis integrated command and control system, and the THAAD and advanced Patriot Missile interceptors, protected both military assets and civilians," said Lockheed Martin Chairman, President and CEO Jim Taiclet.

Rotary and Mission Systems
Effective January 2026, the Integrated Warfare Systems and Sensors (IWSS) and C6ISR lines of business within RMS were restructured and renamed Sensors, Effectors & Mission Systems (SEMS) and Mission Integrated Command and Control (MIC2). This includes realignment of various programs, such as Aegis and River-Class Destroyer (RCD) moving from what was historically IWSS to MIC2, which more closely aligns with C6ISR. SEMS and MIC2 will therefore incorporate an updated mix of existing program portfolios designed to accelerate mission–focused solutions and enhance the company's customers' experience.

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 a non-GAAP financial measure that the company defines as 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. While management believes that free cash flow as a non-GAAP financial measure may be useful in evaluating the company's financial performance, it should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
