Summary
Northrop Grumman reported second-quarter 2026 sales of $10.9 billion, up 5% year-over-year, and diluted earnings per share of $7.68, down from $8.15, as net awards of $20 billion lifted backlog to a company-record $104.7 billion. The company raised its 2026 sales guidance to $43.75–$44.25 billion and its MTM-adjusted EPS guidance to $28.60–$29.10, while reaffirming guidance for operating income and adjusted free cash flow.
Key points
- Net awards totaled $20.0 billion, including $7.6 billion for Sentinel, $4.3 billion for restricted programs, $1.0 billion for F-35, $0.8 billion for Glide Phase Interceptor and $0.7 billion for the Multi-role Electronically Scanned Array.
- Operating income fell 23% to $1.1 billion and operating margin rate to 10.1%, largely reflecting a prior-year $231 million gain on the training services divestiture.
- Adjusted free cash flow rose 54% to $978 million, and net cash provided by operating activities rose 47% to $1.28 billion.
- CEO Kathy Warden said the record backlog was driven by global demand and that the guidance increase reflects confidence in the company's team and technologies.
