QUICK SPARK: RTX Is Prioritizing Broken Engines Over New Planes | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
During the second-quarter earnings call, CEO Christopher Calio said Pratt & Whitney’s commercial OEM sales fell because the company is ensuring it has “strong material flow into our MRO shops,” allowing repair facilities to process more engines and reduce turnaround times.CFO Neil Mitchill later reinforced that the shift is “really about the material allocation” between new engine deliveries and aftermarket repairs. The strategy appears to be working. RTX said grounded PW1100-powered aircraft are down 25% year to date, maintenance output has increased 43%, and turnaround times have improved 23% despite heavier repair workloads. At the same time, Pratt & Whitney still expects to deliver a record number of GTF engines this year, suggesting the company is balancing new production with a greater emphasis on restoring aircraft already in service.

RTX Beats on Q2 Earnings, Lifts Full-Year 2026 Guidance | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
Key Takeaways RTX beat Q2 estimates as adjusted sales rose 14% and backlog reached a record $289 billion.RTX lifted 2026 sales, organic growth, adjusted EPS, and free cash flow guidance.RTX saw broad growth across Collins, Pratt & Whitney, and Raytheon with expanding margins. RTX (NYSE: (RTX - Free Report) reported better-than-expected second-quarter 2026 results, with strong execution across its commercial aerospace and defense businesses driving double-digit sales and earnings growth. The aerospace and defense giant also raised its full-year guidance for sales, adjusted earnings per share (EPS), and free cash flow, reflecting robust demand, record backlog, and improved operating performance.The company posted adjusted EPS of $1.89, which exceeded the consensus estimate of $1.66. Revenues amounted to $24.71 billion, surpassing the consensus mark of $22.88 billion. Adjusted sales increased 14% year over year, or 16% organically, supported by double-digit growth in commercial aftermarket and defense operations. Commercial Aerospace and Defense Continue to Drive GrowthChairman and CEO Chris Calio said the company delivered another quarter of strong operational execution as demand remained robust across both commercial aerospace and defense markets. RTX ended the quarter with a record $289 billion backlog, up 22% from a year ago. On the defense side, Raytheon secured nearly $20 billion in awards during the quarter, including more than $5 billion of Patriot GEM-T interceptor orders, over $4 billion of classified awards, and $1.8 billion in AMRAAM missile contracts. Commercial aerospace also remained healthy, with more than $20 billion in original equipment and aftermarket orders. Pratt & Whitney Makes Progress on GTF RecoveryManagement highlighted continued progress in its geared turbofan (GTF) fleet management plan. Aircraft-on-ground (AOG) counts for the PW1100 engine family declined another quarter and are now down 25% year to date, supported by a 40%+ increase in MRO output and a 23% reduction in turnaround times. Pratt & Whitney also received certification for its next-generation GTF Advantage engine and began deliveries to Airbus. The upgraded engine is expected to double time-on-wing performance, with full production transition anticipated in 2028. Raytheon Capacity Expansion Supports Long-Term DemandRTX continues investing aggressively to meet accelerating global defense demand. Raytheon announced an additional $100 million investment to expand Patriot GEM-T production and LTAMDS radar testing capacity while also working with NATO partners to broaden the European supplier base for AMRAAM components. At the same time, Pratt & Whitney is investing more than $100 million to expand GTF maintenance capacity across multiple U.S. facilities. Management also emphasized that the proposed U.S. defense budget and strong international demand continue to support long-term growth, with international awards exceeding $10 billion during the first half of the year. Segment Performance Remains Broad-BasedCollins Aerospace generated $8.21 billion in revenues, up 8%, benefiting from strong commercial OE, aftermarket, and defense demand. Pratt & Whitney reported $8.89 billion in revenues, rising 16% year over year as commercial aftermarket sales surged 25% and military sales increased 23%. Raytheon delivered another standout quarter, with revenues climbing 18% year over year, driven by higher production of Patriot, Standard Missile, and AMRAAM systems.

Chceme suverenitu a místní výrobu, slyší americké zbrojovky od vlád v Evropě | Patria Stock News | |
|
Original source text
Americké zbrojovky, které tento týden přijely na aerosalon ve Farnborough, aby využily růstu evropských výdajů na obranu, se setkaly s obavami ze závislosti na amerických dodavatelích. Evropské vlády požadují větší kontrolu nad obrannou technikou, vyšší podíl místní výroby a větší zapojení domácího průmyslu. Američtí výrobci zbraní proto v Evropě zakládají společné podniky a nabízejí výrobky více přizpůsobené požadavkům jednotlivých evropských zemí, uvedla dnes agentura Reuters."Slyšíme to zcela jasně: Evropané chtějí větší suverenitu a chtějí mít více výrobních a technologických kapacit přímo u sebe,“ uvedl viceprezident americké společnosti Lockheed Martin pro globální rozvoj a strategii Daniel Tenney. V době, kdy evropské členské státy Severoatlantické aliance a Kanada výrazně zvyšují výdaje na obranu, americké firmy argumentují, že nákup osvědčených amerických zbraňových systémů je rychlejší a levnější než vývoj nových. Současně však slibují lokalizaci výroby i přenos technologií do Evropy. Společnost Lockheed Martin ve Farnborough představila levnější střelu pro systém protivzdušné obrany Patriot, která má být vyvinuta ve spolupráci s evropskými i americkými partnery. Oznámení přišlo krátce po zveřejnění plánů vyrábět taktické rakety Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS) společně s německou společností Rheinmetall. Divize Raytheon americké společnosti RTX nedávno rovněž oznámila partnerství s evropskými firmami s cílem zvýšit výrobu protiletadlových střel Stinger, včetně jejich finální montáže v Nizozemsku. Evropské země podle prezidenta divize pozemních a protivzdušných obranných systémů společnosti Raytheon Thomase Lalibertyho těží z využívání široce rozšířených systémů, jako je Patriot. Země, které tento systém provozují, společně financují například databáze hrozeb či další společné schopnosti. "Z této spolupráce mají značný prospěch,“ uvedl Laliberty. Na evropském trhu zbrojní techniky se snaží prosadit i nové technologické společnosti. Firma Anduril, která se letos ve Farnborough představila dosud největší expozicí, rozšířila počet zaměstnanců v Británii a dohodla se na zahájení místní výroby střel s plochou dráhou letu Barracuda-500M v Polsku. "Každá vláda má jiné požadavky na lokalizaci výroby," uvedl ředitel britské pobočky společnosti Anduril Richard Drake. Část evropských představitelů se však obává, že Spojené státy by v budoucnu mohly být méně ochotné nebo méně schopné dodávat zbraně, náhradní díly či další podporu. Důvodem může být například situace, kdy by americké zbrojovky musely upřednostnit potřeby amerických ozbrojených sil v jiných částech světa. Podle představitelů obranného průmyslu a odborníků už Evropané nechtějí pouze nakupovat hotové výrobky. Požadují přístup k technologiím, které jim umožní techniku samostatně vyrábět, upravovat i udržovat. Evropa podle vedoucího partnera poradenské společnosti Boston Consulting Group v Miláně Fabia Dal Pana požaduje významný přenos práv duševního vlastnictví. Přestože Evropa zůstává na americkém obranném průmyslu stále výrazně závislá, pro americké společnosti představuje riziko možnost, že se trend směřující k větší evropské soběstačnosti stane dlouhodobým. To je podle Toma Waldwyna z londýnského Mezinárodního institutu pro strategická studia (IISS) velmi závažná obava. Existují přitom systémy, které Evropa nedokáže v krátké době nahradit, například stíhací letouny F-35 nebo protiraketové systémy Patriot. V jiných oblastech však podle analytika společnosti Agency Partners Sashe Tusy evropské alternativy "mohou být dostatečně kvalitní" a současně nabízejí významnou výhodu z hlediska strategické suverenity. V některých případech mohou být i levnější. To se podle něj týká například systémů protivzdušné obrany středního dosahu. Analytici zároveň upozorňují, že Evropa už v některých segmentech postupně snižuje závislost na americké technice, například v oblasti letounů včasné výstrahy. NATO nedávno oznámilo plán zhruba za 4,5 miliardy dolarů (95 miliard Kč) na nákup až deseti průzkumných letounů Saab GlobalEye, které mají nahradit stárnoucí stroje AWACS. Aliance tak dala přednost švédskému systému před konkurenční nabídkou amerického výrobce Boeing. Evropské země se zároveň snaží samostatně vyvíjet některé nové technologie. Britská společnost BAE Systems na veletrhu ve Farnborough představila nový bezpilotní bojový letoun, který britská vláda označila za demonstrátor budoucí operační koncepce. Stalo se tak navzdory tomu, že několik amerických společností už podobné stroje vyvíjí a některé z nich byly ve Farnborough rovněž vystaveny. Britský program bude zahrnovat více dodavatelů, zároveň však zůstane suverénní, řekl minulý týden agentuře Reuters zástupce velitele britského Královského letectva pro rozvoj schopností a programy Jim Beck. "My potřebujeme mít právo rozhodovat o tom, jak a kdy budeme s naší technikou nakládat,“ uvedl Beck. Aerosalon ve Farnborough se koná jednou za dva roky a střídá se s pařížským aerosalonem v Le Bourget. V sudých letech je v Británii, v lichých ve Francii. Jde o dvě nejvýznamnější světové přehlídky letecké techniky zaměřené na obchodní část odvětví, tedy především na kontrakty výrobců letadel, motorů, zbrojních firem a dodavatelů technologií. |

REUTERS/Dado Ruvic/Illustration[1/2]The Raytheon Technologies logo and a miniature satellite model are pictured in an illustration taken, March 10, 2025. REUTERS/Dado Ruvic/Illustration Purchase Licensing Rights, opens new tab July 23 (Reuters) - Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Thursday the U.S. aerospace and defence company Raytheon had expressed an interest in joint production of Patriot interceptors, as Kyiv seeks to bolster air defences against escalating Russian ballistic missile attacks. "I am grateful for the company's readiness to take our partnership to an even higher level, where Ukraine would co-produce, together with Raytheon, some of the most vital air defense assets – Patriot interceptors," Zelenskiy wrote on X in English after meeting a delegation from the RTX (RTX.N), opens new tab -owned company. The Reuters Daily Briefing newsletter provides all the news you need to start your day. Sign up here. Ukraine has long called for help from its Western partners in building up supplies of interceptors to down Russian ballistic missiles and sought agreement on securing a licence. U.S. President Donald Trump said during the NATO summit in Turkey this month that Washington would grant Ukraine a licence to manufacture Patriot missile interceptors. Zelenskiy said discussions with the Raytheon delegation, led by Vice President Joseph DeAntona, also focused on "other areas of partnership regarding non-offensive military equipment." Zelenskiy met U.S. ambassador to NATO Matthew Whitaker in Kyiv on Wednesday, with the discussion focusing on licences, and said he wanted "faster action and greater support" from Kyiv's partners.

Index Dow Jones odepisuje téměř procento pří výprodeji technologických společností. Mimo Alphabet klesá i Amazon (- 4,1 %) a Salesforce ( -3,5 %). Z indexu S&P 500 se mimo komunikační služby nedaří zbytné spotřebě, kde reportovala výsledky společnost Tesla (- 14 %). Thermo Fisher Scientific (8,2 %) roste po kvartálním reportu. Mimo dobré čísla management uvedl, že společnost cítí oživení poptávky ve všech hlavních segmentech. Nejedná se přitom o pouhé doplňování zásob, ale i dodávání analytických přístrojů, jelikož divize Analytical Instruments vzrostla o 15 %. Tržby za minulý kvartál dosahují USD 11,99 mld. a společně se ziskem na akcii USD 6,03 překonávají očekávání trhu. Společnost rovněž navyšuje odhad celoročního zisku na akcii na horní hranu USD 25,33. Smíšený pocit z kvartálních výsledků mají investoři Freeport-McMoRan (- 2,6 %). Společnost sice dosáhla na lepší ziskovost, než bylo očekávání a reportovala EPS ve výši USD 0,74. Meziroční nárůst prodejní ceny mědi dosáhl 40 %. Vyšší prodejní ceny tak kompenzují nižší objemy produkce, které u zlata dosahují 40 % a u mědi 18 %. Management snížil výhled prodeje v dalším kvartále kvůli pomalému obnovování těžby v indonéském dole, který by měl dosáhnout plnou kapacitu až v příštím roce. Lockheed Martin (10 %) reportoval silné výsledky za uplynulý kvartál. Růst tržeb dosáhl 11 % na mld. 20,1 USD a zisk na akcii překonal na úrovni USD 7,94 očekávání. Management současně navýšil celoroční výhled a tržby posadil mezi USD 79,75 – 81,75 mld. při zisku na akcii 29,95 – 30,65. Nevyřízené zakázky dosahují historické maximum společnosti USD 230 mld. Po včerejším uzavření trhu reportovala výsledky i společnost Texas Instruments (- 4,4 %). Růst tržeb meziročně dosáhl na 23 % a nad konsenzus se dostal i zisk na akcii ve výši USD 2,14. Management v dalším kvartálu očekává jeho další růst na USD 2,23 – 2,57. Provozní výsledky a výhled byl slušný, ale trh nadále vyrušuje výše capex investic, které omezuje volné cash flow. Výsledky dále zveřejnila i IBM (- 0,5 %) a společnost Alphabet (- 6,6 %). SK Hynix (4,9 %) stanovuje limit na celkový počet vydaných ADR, které se obchodují v USA na 2,5 % všech akcií společnosti. Uber Technologies (- 2,15 %) propustil 10 % zaměstnanců v divizi Community Operations, která se stará o zákaznickou a řidičskou podporu. Společnost dříve propustila přibližně 23 % zaměstnanců HR. K zefektivnění provozu ji pomáhá umělá inteligence. Blízký východ je nadále velmi turbulentní. Futures na ropu Brent jsou opět nad USD 100 při téměř 7 % růstu. WTI se obchoduje nad USD 92. Hútíové oznámili, že zaútočili na dva saúdské tankery v Rudém moři. Posilují ropné společnosti. Exxon připisuje 1,87 % a Chevron roste o 1,5 %. Index S&P 500 -1,19 % na 7409,52 b.

RTX Q2 Earnings Call Highlights | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
MDA Space Targets US Defense Market With $620M AcquisitionRTX NYSE: RTX raised its full-year outlook after reporting stronger second-quarter 2026 sales, profit and cash flow, citing broad demand across its commercial aerospace and defense businesses and continued progress on operational execution.Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Chris Calio said the company delivered “another strong quarter of performance and financial results,” with adjusted sales of $24.7 billion, up 16% organically from a year earlier. Adjusted earnings per share rose 21% to $1.89, while adjusted segment operating profit increased 18% to $3.2 billion. Free cash flow totaled $2.9 billion. Get RTX alerts: How to Invest in the Biggest European Defense Surge in DecadesThe company’s backlog reached a record $289 billion, up 22% year over year and 6% sequentially. Calio said demand remained “exceptional” across RTX’s products and services, with both defense and commercial aerospace contributing to order growth. Defense Demand Drives Record Backlog Raytheon recorded nearly $20 billion of awards in the quarter, producing a book-to-bill ratio of 2.4. Calio said the awards included more than $5 billion of GEM-T Patriot effectors, driven by international customers and the first domestic GEM-T production order in more than 30 years. Raytheon also booked more than $4 billion of classified and confidential awards and $1.8 billion for AMRAAM. RTX Is Set to Revolutionize Munitions ManufacturingNathan Ware, vice president of investor relations, said Raytheon’s quarterly sales rose 18% to $8.3 billion, driven by higher volume in land and air defense systems, naval programs and air and space defense systems, including Patriot, Standard Missile and AMRAAM. Adjusted operating profit increased $234 million to $1 billion, with margins expanding 100 basis points. Raytheon ended the quarter with an $86 billion backlog, 48% of which was international, up four percentage points from a year earlier. Ware said other key awards in the quarter included $1.1 billion for AIM-9X and about $800 million for LTAMDS. Calio said RTX is encouraged by bipartisan support for increased U.S. defense spending, pointing to a base budget request of $1.1 trillion for 2027 and increased funding for RTX priority programs including Tomahawk, LTAMDS and Standard Missile. He also said Raytheon booked more than $10 billion of international awards in the first half of the year, more than double the prior-year period, including more than $7 billion from European customers. Commercial Aerospace Aftermarket Remains Strong On the commercial side, Calio said RTX received more than $20 billion of original equipment and aftermarket orders in the quarter. He highlighted AirAsia’s order for 150 Airbus A220 aircraft, which are exclusively powered by Pratt & Whitney GTF engines, and a five-year agreement under which Collins Aerospace will provide Air New Zealand with maintenance, repair and overhaul services for engine nacelles on its Boeing 787 fleet. Calio said commercial aftermarket demand remains strong and passenger air travel is resilient. He said global revenue passenger kilometers are expected to grow this year in all regions outside the Middle East, while engine retirements have remained relatively low. At Pratt & Whitney, sales rose 16% on an adjusted basis to $8.9 billion and 17% organically, supported by commercial aftermarket and military engine strength. Ware said commercial aftermarket sales rose 25% on higher MRO volume, while military engine sales increased 23%, driven by higher F135 volume. Commercial original equipment sales fell 8% as increased engine deliveries were more than offset by large commercial engine mix. Calio said the GTF fleet management plan remains on track. PW1100 aircraft-on-ground levels were down sequentially and down 25% year to date, supported by MRO output that increased more than 40% year over year and a 23% reduction in turnaround time. Collins, Pratt and Raytheon Outlooks Raised Chief Financial Officer Neil Mitchill said RTX now expects full-year adjusted sales of $95 billion to $96 billion, up from the prior range of $92.5 billion to $93.5 billion. The company now expects organic sales growth of 8% to 9%, compared with the previous range of 5% to 6%. RTX also raised its adjusted EPS outlook to $7.10 to $7.25, up from $6.70 to $6.90. Free cash flow is now expected to range from $8.5 billion to $8.75 billion, compared with the prior range of $8.25 billion to $8.75 billion. Mitchill said most of the sales increase is tied to stronger defense performance across the company, primarily at Raytheon, along with higher GTF aftermarket volume at Pratt & Whitney and commercial original equipment strength at Collins Aerospace. Collins Aerospace: Second-quarter sales were $8.2 billion, up 13% organically. RTX now expects Collins sales to grow mid- to high-single digits on an adjusted basis, with operating profit growth of $550 million to $625 million versus 2025. Pratt & Whitney: RTX now expects Pratt sales to grow high-single digits on both an adjusted and organic basis, with operating profit growth of $275 million to $350 million versus 2025. Raytheon: RTX now expects Raytheon sales to grow high-single digits to low-double digits, with operating profit growth of $575 million to $650 million versus 2025. Company Highlights Investments and Portfolio Actions Calio said RTX continues to invest in capacity and technology across the business. Raytheon is investing an additional $100 million domestically to increase GEM-T component production and accelerate LTAMDS testing capabilities. Pratt & Whitney announced more than $100 million of U.S. investments to expand GTF MRO capacity in Texas, Florida and Arkansas. Collins completed a commercial MRO expansion in Malaysia during the quarter. RTX also reported progress on technology programs. Collins was down-selected to deliver mission autonomy software for the U.S. Air Force’s collaborative combat aircraft program. Pratt received aircraft certification for the GTF Advantage engine and began deliveries to Airbus, with entry into service expected later this year and full production cutover in 2028. Raytheon is developing a longer-range variant of the StormBreaker effector using a modified Pratt TJ-150 engine, with an upcoming flight test planned. Mitchill also said RTX entered into an agreement to sell Raytheon’s Blue Canyon Technologies business for $620 million as the company focuses on core capabilities. In response to analyst questions, Calio said RTX’s capital allocation priorities remain consistent: investing in the business, maintaining its dividend commitment and reducing debt. He said the company does not see anything it “really need[s]” from a portfolio standpoint and believes its existing portfolio is “exceptionally strong.” About RTX (NYSE:RTX)RTX NYSE: RTX is a U.S.-based aerospace and defense company that designs, manufactures and services advanced systems for commercial, military and governmental customers worldwide.

Index S&P 500 na začátku obchodování oslabuje, když obavy z neustále rostoucích výdajů na umělou inteligenci převážily nad jinak silnými hospodářskými výsledky společnosti Alphabet. Technologická konglomerát Alphabet (-6,3 %) zveřejnil výsledky hospodaření za druhý kvartál roku 2026. Trhy zaujaly především výsledky Google Cloud, jehož výnosy meziročně vzrostly o 82 %. Nicméně rostoucí poptávka po cloudových službách a umělé inteligenci má za následek růst kapitálových výdajů, které jsou v tomto roce projektovány v rozmezí 195-205 mld. USD. Volné hotovostní toky poprvé v historii dosáhly záporných hodnot, a to 5,9 mld. USD. Akcie Tesla padají o 11 %. Výrobce elektromobilů zveřejnil hospodářské výsledky za druhé čtvrtletí roku 2026, ve kterém zisk na akcii zaostal za průměrným odhadem analytiků, zatímco tržby odhady překonaly. Analytici zároveň upozorňují, že může trvat déle, než se výdaje do segmentu fyzické AI (robotika, autonomní vozidla) promítnou do výnosů a zisků firmy. Výsledky zveřejnily rovněž například IT společnost IBM (-1,9 %), softwarová společnost ServiceNow (+0,1 %) či letecký a obranný koncern RTX (+7,9 %). Index S&P 500 -0,76 % na 7441,85 b.

The company reported net income attributable to common shareowners in the second quarter of $2.1 billion which included $0.4 billion of acquisition accounting adjustments and $0.1 billion of restructuring and other net significant and/or non-recurring items. Adjusted net income* of $2.6 billion was up 22 percent versus the prior year driven by adjusted segment operating profit growth* across all three segments. Operating cash flow in the second quarter was $3.5 billion and capital expenditures were $0.7 billion, resulting in free cash flow* of $2.9 billion. Summary Financial Results 2nd Quarter ($ in millions, except EPS) 2026 2025 % Change Reported Sales $ 24,708 $ 21,581 14 % Net Income $ 2,139 $ 1,657 29 % EPS $ 1.57 $ 1.22 29 % Adjusted* Sales $ 24,708 $ 21,581 14 % Net Income $ 2,579 $ 2,118 22 % EPS $ 1.89 $ 1.56 21 % Operating Cash Flow $ 3,547 $ 458 674 % Free Cash Flow* $ 2,878 $ (72) NM NM = Not Meaningful Segment Results Collins Aerospace 2nd Quarter ($ in millions) 2026 2025 % Change Reported Sales $ 8,210 $ 7,622 8 % Operating Profit $ 1,306 $ 1,173 11 % ROS 15.9 % 15.4 % 50 bps Adjusted* Sales $ 8,210 $ 7,622 8 % Operating Profit $ 1,370 $ 1,249 10 % ROS 16.7 % 16.4 % 30 bps Collins Aerospace second quarter 2026 reported and adjusted sales* of $8,210 million were up 8 percent versus the prior year. Excluding the impact of divestitures, sales increased 13 percent organically* driven by a 26 percent increase in commercial OE, a 10 percent increase in commercial aftermarket, and a 7 percent increase in defense. The increase in commercial OE sales was driven by higher volume on narrowbody and widebody platforms, and the increase in commercial aftermarket sales was primarily driven by growth in parts and repair and modifications and upgrades. The increase in defense sales was driven by higher volume across multiple programs. Collins Aerospace reported operating profit of $1,306 million was up 11 percent versus the prior year. Adjusted operating profit* of $1,370 million was up 10 percent versus the prior year. The growth was driven by drop through on higher commercial and defense volume, which was partially offset by defense mix, higher SG&A expense, and the impact of divestitures completed in 2025. Reported operating profit in Q2 2026 included higher restructuring charges associated with cost transformation initiatives. Pratt & Whitney 2nd Quarter ($ in millions) 2026 2025 % Change Reported Sales $ 8,889 $ 7,631 16 % Operating Profit $ 738 $ 492 50 % ROS 8.3 % 6.4 % 190 bps Adjusted* Sales $ 8,889 $ 7,631 16 % Operating Profit $ 740 $ 608 22 % ROS 8.3 % 8.0 % 30 bps Pratt & Whitney second quarter reported and adjusted sales* of $8,889 million were up 16 percent versus the prior year. The sales growth was driven by a 25 percent increase in commercial aftermarket and a 23 percent increase in military, partially offset by an 8 percent decrease in commercial OE. The increase in commercial aftermarket was driven by higher volume, while the increase in military sales was driven by higher F135 volume, including the benefit of prior year contract award timing. The decrease in commercial OE sales was driven by large commercial engine mix which more than offset increased large commercial engine deliveries. Pratt & Whitney reported operating profit of $738 million was up 50 percent versus the prior year. Q2 2025 reported profit included an approximately $100 million charge related to a customer bankruptcy. Adjusted operating profit* of $740 million was up 22 percent versus the prior year. The increase was driven by drop through on higher commercial aftermarket and military volume, as well as military mix. This growth was partially offset by increased large commercial engine deliveries, large commercial engine mix, and higher SG&A expense. Raytheon 2nd Quarter ($ in millions) 2026 2025 % Change Reported Sales $ 8,269 $ 7,001 18 % Operating Profit $ 1,042 $ 805 29 % ROS 12.6 % 11.5 % 110 bps Adjusted* Sales $ 8,269 $ 7,001 18 % Operating Profit $ 1,043 $ 809 29 % ROS 12.6 % 11.6 % 100 bps Raytheon second quarter reported and adjusted sales* of $8,269 million were up 18 percent versus the prior year. This increase was driven by higher volume on land and air defense systems, naval programs, and air and space defense systems, including Patriot, Standard Missile, and AMRAAM. Raytheon reported operating profit of $1,042 million was up 29 percent versus the prior year. Adjusted operating profit* of $1,043 million was up 29 percent versus the prior year. The increase was driven by higher volume, favorable mix, including Patriot programs, and improved net productivity. *Adjusted net sales (also referred to as adjusted sales), organic sales, adjusted operating profit (loss) and margin percentage (ROS), segment operating profit (loss) and margin percentage (ROS), adjusted segment sales, adjusted segment operating profit (loss) and margin percentage (ROS), adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share ("EPS"), adjusted effective tax rate, and free cash flow are non-GAAP financial measures. When we provide our expectation for adjusted net sales (also referred to as adjusted sales), adjusted EPS and free cash flow on a forward-looking basis, a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding GAAP measures (expected diluted EPS and expected cash flow from operations) is not available without unreasonable effort due to potentially high variability, complexity, and low visibility as to the items that would be excluded from the GAAP measure in the relevant future period, such as unusual gains and losses, the ultimate outcome of pending litigation, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, the impact and timing of potential acquisitions and divestitures, and other structural changes or their probable significance. The variability of the excluded items may have a significant, and potentially unpredictable, impact on our future GAAP results.

The corresponding presentation slides will be available for downloading prior to the call. Use and Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures RTX Corporation ("RTX" or "the Company") reports its financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). We supplement the reporting of our financial information determined under GAAP with certain non-GAAP financial information. The non-GAAP information presented provides investors with additional useful information but should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for the related GAAP measures. We believe that these non-GAAP measures provide investors with additional insight into the Company's ongoing business performance. Other companies may define non-GAAP measures differently, which limits the usefulness of these measures for comparisons with such other companies. We encourage investors to review our financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to the corresponding amounts prepared in accordance with GAAP appears in the tables in this Appendix. Certain non-GAAP financial adjustments are also described in this Appendix. Below are our non-GAAP financial measures: Non-GAAP measure Definition Adjusted net sales / Adjusted sales Represents consolidated net sales (a GAAP measure), excluding net significant and/or non-recurring items1 (hereinafter referred to as "net significant and/or non-recurring items"). Organic sales Organic sales represents the change in consolidated net sales (a GAAP measure), excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, acquisitions and divestitures completed in the preceding twelve months and net significant and/or non-recurring items. Adjusted operating profit (loss) and margin percentage (ROS) Adjusted operating profit (loss) represents operating profit (loss) (a GAAP measure), excluding restructuring costs, acquisition accounting adjustments2, and net significant and/or non-recurring items. Adjusted operating profit margin percentage represents adjusted operating profit (loss) as a percentage of adjusted net sales. Segment operating profit (loss) and margin percentage (ROS) Segment operating profit (loss) represents operating profit (loss) (a GAAP measure) excluding acquisition accounting adjustments2, the FAS/CAS operating adjustment3, Corporate expenses and other unallocated items, and Eliminations and other. Segment operating profit margin percentage represents segment operating profit (loss) as a percentage of segment sales (net sales, excluding Eliminations and other). Adjusted segment sales Represents consolidated net sales (a GAAP measure) excluding eliminations and other and net significant and/or non-recurring items. Adjusted segment operating profit (loss) and margin percentage (ROS) Adjusted segment operating profit (loss) represents segment operating profit (loss) excluding restructuring costs, and net significant and/or non-recurring items. Adjusted segment operating profit margin percentage represents adjusted segment operating profit (loss) as a percentage of adjusted segment sales (adjusted net sales excluding Eliminations and other). Adjusted net income Adjusted net income represents net income (a GAAP measure), excluding restructuring costs, acquisition accounting adjustments2, and net significant and/or non-recurring items. Adjusted earnings per share (EPS) Adjusted EPS represents diluted earnings per share (a GAAP measure), excluding restructuring costs, acquisition accounting adjustments2, and net significant and/or non-recurring items. Adjusted effective tax rate Adjusted effective tax rate represents the effective tax rate (a GAAP measure), excluding the tax impact of restructuring costs, acquisition accounting adjustments2, and net significant and/or non-recurring items. Free cash flow Free cash flow represents cash flow from operating activities (a GAAP measure) less capital expenditures. Management believes free cash flow is a useful measure of liquidity and an additional basis for assessing RTX's ability to fund its activities, including the financing of acquisitions, debt service, repurchases of RTX's common stock, and distribution of earnings to shareowners. 1 Net significant and/or non-recurring items represent significant nonoperational items and/or significant operational items that may occur at irregular intervals. 2 Acquisition accounting adjustments include the amortization of acquired intangible assets related to acquisitions, the amortization of the property, plant and equipment fair value adjustment acquired through acquisitions, the amortization of customer contractual obligations related to loss making or below market contracts acquired, and goodwill impairment, if applicable. 3 The FAS/CAS operating adjustment represents the difference between the service cost component of our pension and postretirement benefit (PRB) expense under the Financial Accounting Standards (FAS) requirements of GAAP and our pension and PRB expense under U.S. government Cost Accounting Standards (CAS) primarily related to our Raytheon segment. When we provide our expectation for adjusted net sales (also referred to as adjusted sales), organic sales, adjusted operating profit (loss) and margin percentage (ROS), adjusted segment operating profit (loss) and margin percentage (ROS), adjusted EPS, adjusted effective tax rate, and free cash flow, on a forward-looking basis, a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP expectations and the corresponding GAAP measures, as described above, generally are not available without unreasonable effort due to potentially high variability, complexity, and low visibility as to the items that would be excluded from the GAAP measure in the relevant future period, such as unusual gains and losses, the ultimate outcome of pending litigation, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, the impact and timing of potential acquisitions and divestitures, and other structural changes or their probable significance. The variability of the excluded items may have a significant, and potentially unpredictable, impact on our future GAAP results.

REUTERS/Dado Ruvic/Illustration Purchase Licensing Rights, opens new tabSummaryCompaniesRTX shares surge 6% before the bell in New YorkBacklog up 22% in Q2 year/year, led by commercial aerospaceEuropean customers make up largest share of international defense sales in first half of 2026July 23 (Reuters) - RTX (RTX.N), opens new tab raised its 2026 sales and profit forecasts on Thursday, betting on sustained demand for commercial aircraft maintenance and military systems, as airlines keep older jets flying and governments replenish weapons stockpiles. Shares of the company rose 6% in premarket trading in New York. The Reuters Iran Briefing newsletter keeps you informed with the latest developments and analysis of the Iran war. Sign up here. The Arlington, Virginia-based aerospace and defense company said its backlog rose 22% in the second quarter from a year earlier to $289 billion, including $170 billion in commercial aerospace orders and $119 billion in defense. Demand for maintenance, repair and overhaul services has remained strong as shortages of new commercial aircraft, caused by supply-chain snags and delayed deliveries, have forced airlines to rely longer on older, more expensive fleets. RTX's Pratt & Whitney unit, which makes engines for Airbus (AIR.PA), opens new tab A320neo-family jets and Lockheed Martin's (LMT.N), opens new tab F-35 fighter, reported a 16% rise in sales in April-June to $8.89 billion. Sales at the Raytheon defense business rose 18% in the second quarter to $8.27 billion, helped by demand for air and missile defense systems, including Patriot, Standard and AMRAAM missiles. "About half of (Raytheon's) bookings in the first half of the year, $10 billion came from international customers. Of that $10 billion, $7 billion came from European customers," RTX Chief Financial Officer Neil Mitchill said on a call with Reuters. Defense contractors have benefited from elevated global security spending as the Pentagon and allied governments seek to rebuild inventories depleted by conflicts in Ukraine, the Middle East and elsewhere. U.S. President Donald Trump has urged defense companies to increase output and expand factory capacity, while proposing a record $1.5 trillion military budget for fiscal 2027. RTX now expects 2026 adjusted sales to be in the range of $95 billion to $96 billion, up from $92.5 billion to $93.5 billion forecast earlier. Analysts on average expect $94.08, according to data compiled by LSEG. The company forecast full-year adjusted profit of $7.10 to $7.25 per share, up from its prior outlook of $6.70 to $6.90. Wall Street had expected $6.92 per share. RTX reported second-quarter adjusted profit of $1.89 per share, compared to analysts' expectations of $1.66 apiece. Its quarterly revenue of $24.71 billion also came in above estimates of $22.9 billion.

Europe Announced the Rearmament. America's Defense Fund Cashed the Checks | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
© NASA / Hulton Archive via Getty ImagesInvestors who bought the Select STOXX Europe Aerospace & Defense ETF (CBOE:EUAD) were buying a clean story: Berlin, Paris, London, and Warsaw pledging generational increases in military spending, and a fund built to own Airbus, Rheinmetall, BAE Systems, Leonardo, and Saab directly. The logic was that if Europe finally rearmed, the continent’s powers would compound. Eighteen months into that trade, the returns have gone the other way. EUAD sits at $41.62, down 1.21% year-to-date and off 3.16% over the past year. The fund that actually captured the rearmament dollars trades on the other side of the Atlantic: the iShares U.S. Aerospace & Defense ETF (CBOE:ITA). The Case for Owning EUAD The most direct listed vehicle for the European rearmament theme is this fund. The fund concentrates on Airbus (5.31%), MTU Aero Engines (4.91%), Leonardo (2.96%), BAE Systems (2.64%), Saab (2.48%), Thales (2.40%), Rolls-Royce (2.02%), and Rheinmetall (1.82%). That is a defensible portfolio if the thesis is that NATO’s European members finally spend at 3% of GDP and place orders with local champions. It is also priced for that outcome, trading at a P/E of 40 with a beta of 1.24 and a 0.47% dividend yield. Where the European Trade Broke Down The gap between rearmament announcements and rearmament contracts has been wider than headlines suggest. European ministries of defense have leaned heavily on U.S. primes for the equipment they need immediately: F-35s, Patriots, HIMARS, Javelins, munitions, and engines. Germany’s F-35 buy, Poland’s Apache and HIMARS orders, and munition backfills flow directly into the revenue lines of Lockheed Martin, RTX, Boeing, and GE Aerospace, not Rheinmetall or Leonardo. The scoreboard reflects it. EUAD is down over the trailing year, while ITA is up 24.48% and up 9.63% year to date. The theme is the same, but the outcomes have diverged. Why ITA Cashed the Checks The U.S. aerospace and defense fund’s book is built for exactly the contract mix Europe has been buying. The top three holdings, General Electric (19.03%), RTX (16.55%), and Boeing (8.91%), are the engine, missile, and airframe suppliers behind the platforms European buyers are actually funding. Adding layers for General Dynamics (4.77%), L3Harris (4.66%), Lockheed Martin (4.58%), and Northrop Grumman (4.58%) on the primes that dominate munitions, radios, fighters, and bombers. The fund holds $13.49 billion in net assets at an expense ratio of 0.38%. The performance gap is not a one-year artifact. ITA has returned 129.5% over five years and 305.55% over ten years, delivered, while every European conflict cycle since 2016 has ultimately routed procurement through American primes. For a $10,000 position, the trailing 12-month gap between the two funds is roughly $2,764 in favor of ITA. That is the mechanism: the same rearmament story, but with the actual invoices attached. Act now: the analyst who called NVIDIA in 2010 just named his top 10 AI stocks — and GE Aerospace didn't make the cut. Grab the names FREE today. Readers who want a broader look at the primes driving that contract flow can dig into the 24/7 Wall St. research on defense-adjacent industrial names that benefit from the same procurement cycle. The Real Tradeoffs The U.S. aerospace and defense fund is not a free lunch. Concentration is real: GE, RTX, and Boeing alone account for roughly 44.5% of net assets, so a stumble in Boeing production or a commercial aerospace downturn would hit the fund harder than a pure defense basket would. Valuation is similar to the European defense fund at roughly 39x trailing earnings, and the U.S. fund carries commercial-aviation cyclicality that the European fund’s more pure-play defense book does not. Yields are close to a wash, 0.45% on the U.S. fund versus 0.47% on the European fund, so this is a total-return trade, not an income swap. Making the Switch In a tax-advantaged account, the swap is mechanical: sell EUAD, buy ITA, no tax consequence. In a taxable account, the math changes. EUAD has traded flat to down for most holders who bought into the 2024 rearmament narrative, so realized gains may be modest or negative, which can actually be useful for tax-loss harvesting against other winners. Anyone sitting on an embedded loss should confirm that the wash-sale rules do not apply if they plan to reload a similar European name later. What to Watch From Here The swap logic holds as long as European ministries keep writing checks to U.S. primes faster than they build indigenous capacity. That could change. If Rheinmetall’s shell plants, MBDA’s munitions lines, and Airbus’s fighter programs start absorbing a materially larger share of European budgets, EUAD’s underlying earnings should catch up. Until the contract flow rotates, ITA is the fund that is actually being paid for the rearmament headlines EUAD was named after. Act now: the analyst who called NVIDIA in 2010 just named his top 10 AI stocks — and GE Aerospace didn't make the cut. Grab the names FREE today.

3 Drone Tech Stocks to Keep an Eye on as Adoption Picks Up Pace | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
An updated edition of the May 27, 2026 article.The global drone technology market is entering a new phase of accelerated adoption, driven by technology advancements and expanding usage in commercial applications. The embedding of AI has made modern drones faster and more versatile than ever. AI incorporation is driving the autonomous navigation functionality of drones, enabling them to autonomously plan their flight paths based on real-time data, such as environmental terrain. The integration of 5G and advanced Wi-Fi technology has improved real-time data transmission, expanding commercial applications. Consequently, drones are now becoming indispensable across various industries. Drones have become integral to various sectors like mining, infrastructure monitoring, real estate, oil and gas exploration, and even filmmaking. From aerial photography and agricultural mapping to data collection and operations across sectors, drones are transforming how businesses operate. Drones are gaining momentum in last-mile delivery operations as companies look to cut operational costs and enhance productivity. Retail behemoths like Walmart and Amazon are increasingly deploying drones in logistics. Amazon uses drone delivery to deliver one package (up to five pounds) in less than an hour during daylight hours. Meanwhile, public safety and disaster response sectors are using drones for surveillance and search-and-rescue missions. The usage of drone swarms is being extensively explored for tasks like large-area surveillance and search-and-rescue. Still, the defense segment continues to serve as the key growth engine. The growing geopolitical strains and defense upgrades are driving increased drone adoption worldwide. Globally, drones are now being widely deployed for border security, precision strikes, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (“ISR”) and other tactical operations, making them indispensable assets in modern warfare. With regulatory frameworks evolving and military and commercial adoption gaining pace, the drone sector has a long runway for growth. The drone market is expected to witness a CAGR of 9.34% from 2026 to 2031, according to a report from Mordor Intelligence. If you are looking to capitalize on this trend, our Drone Technology Screen makes it easy to identify high-potential stocks, such as Red Cat Holdings (RCAT - Free Report) , RTX Corporation (RTX - Free Report) and Ondas Inc (ONDS - Free Report) . Explore 39 cutting-edge investment themes with Zacks Thematic Investing Screens and uncover your next big opportunity. 3 Drone Tech Stocks in FocusRed Cat Holdings specializes in robotic hardware-software integration for applications for military and commercial uses. Teal Drones and FlightWave Aerospace are two of its wholly-owned affiliates. Its portfolio also includes Black Widow (small, unmanned aircraft systems), TRICHON (a hybrid VTOL) and FANG, an NDAA-compliant FPV drone. It recently introduced Hellcat, a dual-use small unmanned aircraft system based on the Black Widow platform. On the last earnings call, management highlighted that the Defense Autonomous Warfare Group is expected to allocate $54 billion (which could reach as much as $74 billion) toward drones, drone dominance and counter-drone systems starting in 2027, with funding visibility beginning within months. Additionally, a $156 billion defense reconciliation bill for 2025 is now being rapidly deployed in 2026, with only $30 billion obligated as of April, implying a significant ramp in spending over the near term. This creates a powerful demand tailwind for RCAT’s portfolio. Given these, the company expects $150-$180 million in annual revenues in the near to medium term. The gross margins are expected to approach 30% over time. Red Cat delivered $15.5 million in revenues in the first quarter, marking an 849% year-over-year increase. Earlier this month, RCAT announced that Teal Drones has moved to Gauntlet II of the Drone Dominance Program. RCAT’s expansion into USVs via Blue Ops adds a significant new revenue stream with an expected $150 million sales potential in 2026. It recently acquired Quaze Technologies Inc, which specializes in wireless power transfer technology for unmanned and autonomous systems. RCAT carries a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) at present. You can see the complete list of today’s Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here. RTX Corporation is a major aerospace and defense player and represents a more diversified way to enhance exposure to the drone technology space. The company delivers advanced systems and services for commercial, military, and government clients through its Collins Aerospace (Collins), Pratt & Whitney and Raytheon business segments. Its exposure to the drone market is primarily driven by its strength in counter-drone systems. On the last earnings call, RTX emphasized that the current geopolitical landscape is driving increased demand for munitions, integrated air and missile defense technology, and advanced capabilities to deal with threats. Management highlighted the increasing demand for its Coyote counter-UAS system. It has demonstrated a non-kinetic version of the Coyote, which reflects the industry’s shift toward more cost-effective and reusable systems. Unlike traditional interceptors, this version can complete a mission, return, be recharged, and redeployed, making it well-suited for sustained operations. The company noted strong global interest, including a recently approved Coyote system deal with the UAE, underscoring the export potential of its C-UAS portfolio. RTX currently carries a Zacks Rank #2. Ondas is rapidly scaling its Ondas Autonomous Systems (“OAS”) business, which has quickly become a multi-domain autonomy platform spanning ISR, C-UAS, loitering munitions/strike systems, unmanned ground vehicles and stratospheric sensing via World View acquisition. The company has accomplished this broad portfolio through focused M&A activity. The company recently announced the acquisition of DZYNE Technologies for $875.8 million. DZYNE will expand ONDS’ reach across c-UAS, multi-domain ISR, precision strike and mission intelligence and autonomous systems. Both World View and DZYNE will operate within the company’s newly launched business division, Ondas Sentinel. Following this development, Ondas now expects 2026 revenue to be at least $525 million from the previous forecast of $390 million. The increase also reflects contributions from Omnisys. DZYNE is expected to contribute approximately $191 million in revenue in 2026 and more than $300 million in 2027. In June 2026, ONDS announced the $125 million acquisition of Cyberhawk, a provider of drone-based infrastructure inspection and AI-powered asset intelligence. Beyond these acquisitions, the company had completed five acquisitions (World View, INDO Earth, Rotron Aerospace, Bird Aero and Mistral Inc) alone in the first quarter of 2026. In the past year, it has acquired Sentrycs, Apeiro Motion and Zickel, among others. Ondas now operates in more than 45 countries with over 1,000 employees globally. However, extensive M&A amplifies risks, as so many acquisitions in such a short period can create integration overload and execution risks, as achieving targets depends on timely integration and conversion of backlog into revenues. ONDS carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) at present. |

RTX (RTX) Reports Next Week: Wall Street Expects Earnings Growth | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
RTX (RTX - Free Report) is expected to deliver a year-over-year increase in earnings on higher revenues when it reports results for the quarter ended June 2026. This widely-known consensus outlook gives a good sense of the company's earnings picture, but how the actual results compare to these estimates is a powerful factor that could impact its near-term stock price.The earnings report, which is expected to be released on July 23, might help the stock move higher if these key numbers are better than expectations. On the other hand, if they miss, the stock may move lower. While management's discussion of business conditions on the earnings call will mostly determine the sustainability of the immediate price change and future earnings expectations, it's worth having a handicapping insight into the odds of a positive EPS surprise. Zacks Consensus EstimateThis an aerospace and defense company is expected to post quarterly earnings of $1.66 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of +6.4%. Revenues are expected to be $22.83 billion, up 5.8% from the year-ago quarter. Estimate Revisions TrendThe consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has been revised 0.08% lower over the last 30 days to the current level. This is essentially a reflection of how the covering analysts have collectively reassessed their initial estimates over this period. Investors should keep in mind that an aggregate change may not always reflect the direction of estimate revisions by each of the covering analysts. Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise Earnings WhisperEstimate revisions ahead of a company's earnings release offer clues to the business conditions for the period whose results are coming out. This insight is at the core of our proprietary surprise prediction model -- the Zacks Earnings ESP (Expected Surprise Prediction). The Zacks Earnings ESP compares the Most Accurate Estimate to the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the quarter; the Most Accurate Estimate is a more recent version of the Zacks Consensus EPS estimate. The idea here is that analysts revising their estimates right before an earnings release have the latest information, which could potentially be more accurate than what they and others contributing to the consensus had predicted earlier. Thus, a positive or negative Earnings ESP reading theoretically indicates the likely deviation of the actual earnings from the consensus estimate. However, the model's predictive power is significant for positive ESP readings only. A positive Earnings ESP is a strong predictor of an earnings beat, particularly when combined with a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold). Our research shows that stocks with this combination produce a positive surprise nearly 70% of the time, and a solid Zacks Rank actually increases the predictive power of Earnings ESP. Please note that a negative Earnings ESP reading is not indicative of an earnings miss. Our research shows that it is difficult to predict an earnings beat with any degree of confidence for stocks with negative Earnings ESP readings and/or Zacks Rank of 4 (Sell) or 5 (Strong Sell). How Have the Numbers Shaped Up for RTX?For RTX, the Most Accurate Estimate is higher than the Zacks Consensus Estimate, suggesting that analysts have recently become bullish on the company's earnings prospects. This has resulted in an Earnings ESP of +2.02%. On the other hand, the stock currently carries a Zacks Rank of #2. So, this combination indicates that RTX will most likely beat the consensus EPS estimate. Does Earnings Surprise History Hold Any Clue?Analysts often consider to what extent a company has been able to match consensus estimates in the past while calculating their estimates for its future earnings. So, it's worth taking a look at the surprise history for gauging its influence on the upcoming number. For the last reported quarter, it was expected that RTX would post earnings of $1.52 per share when it actually produced earnings of $1.78, delivering a surprise of +17.11%. Over the last four quarters, the company has beaten consensus EPS estimates four times. Bottom LineAn earnings beat or miss may not be the sole basis for a stock moving higher or lower. Many stocks end up losing ground despite an earnings beat due to other factors that disappoint investors. Similarly, unforeseen catalysts help a number of stocks gain despite an earnings miss. That said, betting on stocks that are expected to beat earnings expectations does increase the odds of success. This is why it's worth checking a company's Earnings ESP and Zacks Rank ahead of its quarterly release. Make sure to utilize our Earnings ESP Filter to uncover the best stocks to buy or sell before they've reported. RTX appears a compelling earnings-beat candidate. However, investors should pay attention to other factors too for betting on this stock or staying away from it ahead of its earnings release. Stay on top of upcoming earnings announcements with the Zacks Earnings Calendar. |

Investor: ‘By 2050, The Biggest Companies Operating in Space Won’t Be Space Companies’ | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
© jamesteohart / Shutterstock.comMichael Brandmeyer, co-CIO of Goldman Sachs (NYSE: GS | GS Price Prediction) Asset Management’s External Investing Group and co-host of the firm’s Exchanges podcast, offered a striking framing for how investors should think about the next generation of the space economy on the recent episode “The Growth of the Space Industry.” His central prediction: “I think by 2050, the biggest companies operating in space won’t be space companies. I think space is going to be fundamental to almost every business.” He drew the analogy directly to how the web became infrastructure. “It’s very similar to what happened with the internet in the early 2000s. You had internet companies, and now the internet is fundamental to every company. I think that’s what we’ll see by 2050.” The Internet Parallel Matters for Portfolio Construction If Brandmeyer is right, the largest beneficiaries of orbital infrastructure a quarter-century from now will look more like today’s cloud, logistics, pharmaceutical, and industrial giants using space as a utility than like pure-play rocket builders. That aligns with how the current investment theme catalog is structured across drones and autonomous vehicles, robotics, rare earths, quantum, and neocloud AI infrastructure. All of which already feed the satellite and launch supply chain rather than a single “space” bucket. What the Near-Term Roadmap Actually Looks Like A guest on the episode laid out concrete milestones. New commercial space station modules are expected in “the next couple of years”, with early use cases spanning pharmaceutical research, GPU testing, and zero-gravity manufacturing. A lunar base sits “a decade plus off,” and a crewed Mars landing lands in the “2050 sort of scenario.” The guest was candid about timing: “In space, things do take a long time.” Brandmeyer echoed the Mars milestone as a personal aspiration: “I hope we land people on Mars. I think that would be incredible for humanity to see that during our lifetimes.” For investors, the more actionable takeaway is the guest’s admission that patience is the price of admission to the theme. AI Is Already the Foundational Layer The most investable near-term theme raised on the episode is the marriage of AI and satellite data. Act now: the analyst who called NVIDIA in 2010 just named his top 10 AI stocks — and Goldman Sachs didn't make the cut. Grab the names FREE today. Brandmeyer highlighted that satellites are now “digesting that, analyzing that, and making decision-making on Earth a lot faster,” a workflow driven by autonomous edge computing on-orbit rather than by beaming raw pixels back to ground stations. That connects directly to Goldman Sachs Asset Management’s own 2026 outlook. All of which frames AI as one of the defining catalysts shaping public and private market opportunities. It also openly asks whether AI-fueled growth can continue to compensate for weaker parts of the economy. Space is one of the cleanest expressions of that AI capex spillover. What to Watch Next The practical implication for investors is to widen the aperture. Companies gaining exposure to orbit through communications backhaul, geospatial analytics for insurance and agriculture, in-space pharmaceutical partnerships, and defense-adjacent aerospace innovation may capture more of the value than the launch operators themselves. Recent aerospace M&A supports the pattern: RTX‘s (NYSE: RTX) Pratt & Whitney unit acquired Aiir Innovations to bring AI-assisted borescope software to commercial, civil, and military engine inspections, an example of AI reshaping the aerospace value chain from the maintenance end. Readers can find the full Brandmeyer conversation on Goldman Sachs’ Exchanges podcast page. Three signals to keep an eye on. First, how quickly the commercial share of global space spending expands. Second, how many non-space corporations sign multi-year satellite data or in-orbit R&D contracts? And three, how AI pipelines built for terrestrial data centers get retooled for onboard satellite compute. If the internet analogy holds, the 2050 leaderboard is being drafted right now, and most of the names on it will come from industries that use orbit as plumbing. Act now: the analyst who called NVIDIA in 2010 just named his top 10 AI stocks — and Goldman Sachs didn't make the cut. Grab the names FREE today.
