"We’re building on our momentum with a strong start to the year, driven by solid operational execution and program performance, leading to continued expansion in adjusted segment operating margin. We continue to see demand for our solutions, reflecting our alignment with key national security priorities. Our capital deployment strategy remains clear, returning nearly $800 million in the quarter to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases, and increasing our dividend for the 24th consecutive year. As we work toward our 2026 financial framework, we remain confident in our ability to meet our targets and drive long-term, profitable growth,” said Christopher E. Kubasik, Chair and CEO.
Kubasik added, “We are well-positioned to support the new administration's evolving defense priorities, with strategic partnerships at the core of our Trusted Disruptor strategy. Our partners recognize our speed and agility and together we are focused on rapidly delivering mission-critical solutions for our customers. Based on our first quarter performance and the completion of the Commercial Aviation Solutions divestiture, we are updating our guidance while reaffirming our free cash flow commitment.”
