The company highlights strong 2025 performance with $52.6 billion in revenue, $5.1 billion in net cash from operating activities, $4 billion in free cash flow, and a year-end backlog of $118 billion. It returned $2.2 billion to shareholders and posted 30.4% total shareholder return versus 17.9% for the S&P 500.
The Board stresses governance and sustainability: 11 of 12 nominees are independent, there is an independent Lead Director, stringent stock ownership rules, active risk oversight including cybersecurity and emerging technologies, and a fully independent Sustainability Committee. Executive pay blends market-competitive base salary, formula-based annual incentives tied to EPS, free cash flow and operating margin, plus long-term incentives split 50% performance stock units, 30% stock options and 20% restricted stock.
