Akcje Lockheed Martin (LMT 0,41%) poszły w górę po publikacji przez firmę zadowalających wyników finansowych za czwarty kwartał. Koncern działający w branży zbrojeniowej i lotniczej radził sobie bardzo dobrze przez cały ubiegły rok, kończąc go 17% na plusie. W tym samym czasie S&P 500 tracił 9%.
W ostatnich miesiącach spółka miała nieco gorszy okres z powodu rosnących apetytów inwestorów na ryzykowniejsze transakcje. Mimo to nie będzie nieprawdziwe stwierdzenie, że makrootoczenie uległo poprawie za sprawą wyników listopadowych wyborów do Kongresu USA, po których głos zyskali politycy popierający pomoc zbrojną Ukrainie, a także dzięki spadkowi długoterminowych stóp i doniesieniom, że do ukraińskiej armii mogą trafić samoloty F-35.
Wgląd w liczby
Lockheed Martin okazał zysk na akcję w wysokości 7,79 dolara, podczas gdy analitycy spodziewali się 7,41 dolara. Przychód wyniósł 19 mld dolarów i był o 700 mln dolarów wyższych od oczekiwań. W ujęciu ogólnym zysk urósł o 6%, natomiast przychód o 7%.
Prognoza firmy na cały rok pokryła się z przewidywaniami Wall Street. Według niej zysk na akcję wyniesie od 26,6 do 26,9 dolara, a przychód od 65 do 66 mld dolarów. Korzystny dla koncernu jest fakt, że amerykański rząd nie zamierza ograniczać wydatków na obronność mimo politycznego impasu w sprawie pułapu zadłużenia, który najprawdopodobniej okaże się poważnym problemem w 2023 roku.
Lockheed Martin kontynuuje agresywny program skupu akcji własnych, który skutkuje bardzo dobrymi wynikami z perspektywy wskaźnika zysk na akcję. Całoroczny przychód spółki spadło o blisko 1 mld dolarów i w 2023 roku może pójść w dół o kolejny miliard, biorąc pod uwagę długoterminową naturę kontraktów na broń.
Szef koncernu James Taiclet powiedział: "Lepszy od oczekiwań koniec roku pokazał solidność i odporność Lockheed Martin w realizowaniu zobowiązań mimo trudnych warunków, jednocześnie będąc liderem postępów w zakresie krytycznego bezpieczeństwa naszego kraju i sojuszników."

Credit Suisse analysts double-upgraded Lockheed Martin (NYSE:LMT) to Outperform from Underperform and lifted the firm's price target on the stock to $510 from $427 in a note to clients on Tuesday.
The analysts explained that the firm's motive for the upgrade focuses on its updated sector outlook, improved confidence in LMT's growth inflection, and the fact they estimate an upside opportunity.
In addition, Credit Suisse also has an out-year alignment in its EBIT growth forecasts between LMT and NOC, which they believe argues for a relative multiple rerating.
"Weak book-bill was a primary driver of our prior Underperform rating on LMT, as we believed that this softness would limit LMT's ability to accelerate its relative growth," explained analysts. "However, LMT has now reported three consecutive quarters with book-bill >1.0x, with TTM book:bill accelerating to1.08x in Q3 and hitting 1.22x in Q4. We view this acceleration as a powerful signal that the rationale for our prior rating no longer holds."
Credit Suisse is confident Lockheed Martin can return to growth this year as in its experience with defense, "revenue nearly always accelerates off an acceleration in bookings," and as a result, the firm feels this could "offer meaningful estimate upside opportunity."
"Based on our updated modeling, we project LMT can deliver 5.9% EBIT growth in 2025E, in-line with NOC. This alignment is driven both by higher EBIT growth estimates at LMT, as well as diminished EBIT growth projections for NOC," continued analysts. "We believe this alignment in trajectories argues for LMT to rerate relative to NOC."

(Reuters) - Lockheed Martin Corp (NYSE:LMT) said on Monday it resumed final testing of its advanced F-35 fighter jets, after the U.S. Government cleared delivery of engines from supplier following a safety conncern.
"Safety remains our top priority as we continue to produce the world's most advanced fighter aircraft," Lockheed said.
Lockheed Martin sends its new planes on check-out flights before completing paperwork for the final sale to various customers, which includes the U.S. military.
A video circulated in social media in December, which was carried by several outlets, showed an F-35B Lightning II crashing during a test with its pilot safely ejecting.

OSLO (Reuters) - Norway's military plans to buy six Seahawk helicopters for 12 billion crowns ($1.14 billion) from Lockheed Martin (NYSE:LMT)'s Sikorsky, the defence minister said on Tuesday, to boost its ability to monitor its vast seas and Arctic territory.
The NATO member, which shares a border with Russia in the Arctic, is responsible for monitoring some 2 million square km (772,000 square miles) of sea and has long been seeking to boost its monitoring capacity.
"This will strengthen our national control, the military's preparedness and our presence in the northern areas," Bjoern Arild Gram told a news conference, adding the helicopters would be able to track submarines.
Russia's Northern Fleet and its nuclear submarines are based on the Kola Peninsula, which borders Norway in the Arctic.
The first delivery would be in the summer of 2025 and would continue until 2027, he said.
In June, Oslo said it was axing its fleet of NH90 military helicopters and said it would ask for a refund from a consortium led by Airbus, which hit back at the time by calling the move "legally groundless".
Norway said the helicopters it ordered from NHIndustries - owned by Airbus Helicopters, Italy's Leonardo and Fokker Aerostructures of the Netherlands - were either unreliable, were delivered late or not delivered.
NHIndustries was not immediately available for comment on Tuesday.
In October, Norway put its military on a raised level of alert, moving more personnel on to operational duties, in response to the war in Ukraine.
Norway and NATO have also deployed their military to guard offshore oil and gas platforms in the wake of the explosions on the Nord Stream pipelines on Sept. 26 in Swedish and Danish waters.
Norway last year became Europe's largest gas supplier, following a drop in Russian gas flows.

(Reuters) -U.S. weapons maker Lockheed Martin Corp (NYSE:LMT)'s first-quarter results surpassed Wall Street targets on Tuesday despite parts and labor shortages, as simmering geopolitical tensions fueled demand from both U.S. and international customers.
Shares of the company rose as much as 3.8% to hit a record high of $508.1 in early trading.
Rising tensions in Europe, the South China Sea and the Indo-Pacific region have translated to more orders for Lockheed's F-35 fighter aircraft, missiles and other defense equipments, driving quarterly net sales of $15.13 billion above estimates of $15.03 billion.
The Pentagon's $858 billion defense budget for 2023 has also resulted in multiple contract wins for U.S. defense firms such as Lockheed, Raytheon Technologies (NYSE:RTX) and Northrop Grumman Corp (NYSE:NOC), which count the U.S. Department of Defense as their biggest customer.
Bethesda, Maryland-based Lockheed reported GAAP earnings per share of $6.61, which included non-operational gains of $0.18 per share, and adjusted earnings of $6.43 per share for the first quarter ended March 26. Analysts were expecting profits of $6.06 per share.
During the quarter, Australia said it would buy 40 Black Hawk military helicopters made by Lockheed from the U.S. for about $1.96 billion as it boosts defense spending over issues with China's presence in the Indo-Pacific region.
Lockheed had also finalized a deal to sell 88 F-35 jets to Canada in a $14.2 billion project to replace the country's aging fleet of fighter aircraft.
Supply-chain issues stemming from the pandemic are still hurting F-35 production volumes though, pulling down sales at the company's aeronautics unit - its largest - by about 2.1% to $6.27 billion in the quarter.
Lockheed's order backlog also fell to $145.1 billion as of quarter-end from $150 billion at the end of 2022.
The missiles maker reaffirmed its full-year outlook, projecting net sales in the range of about $65 billion to $66 billion and profits between $26.60 and $26.90 per share.

Rumunia ma już zgodę Stanów Zjednoczonych nie tylko na zakup, ale również na modernizację myśliwców F-16. Wprowadzenie ich do służby znacząco zwiększy potencjał sił powietrznych tego kraju znad Morza Czarnego.
Rumunia długo bazowała na radzieckich MiG-21, ale w końcu zdecydowała się od nich odejść. Aktualnie posiada 17 myśliwców F-16. Wkrótce będzie ich znacznie więcej. Na początku czerwca podpisana została umowa na zakup 32 myśliwców F-16 z Norwegii za ok. 388 mln euro. Stało się to możliwe po zgodzie, jaką wydały Stany Zjednoczone.
Teraz mocarstwo przychylenie odpowiedziało na kolejną prośbę rumuńskich władz. W efekcie Bukareszt nabędzie też rozbudowany pakiet sprzętu pozwalający na modernizację tych myśliwców. Szacowana wartość sprzętu, jaki zostanie przekazany przez firmę Lockheed Martin produkującą F-16 (oraz jej partnerów) wynosi ok. 105 mln dolarów.

Lata szybko jak Concorde, ale bije go na głowę. Właśnie wyjechał z fabryki i wzbije się w powietrze
Autor: Bogdan Stech
Z hali montażowej Lockheed Martin Skunk Works w Palmdale w Kalifornii wyjechał najnowszy samolot NASA o wdzięcznej nazwie X-59 QueSS. Wkrótce po raz pierwszy wzbije się w powietrze. Samolot powstał, by sprawdzić nową technologię dotyczącą lotów z prędkością naddźwiękową. Jeśli wszystko pójdzie dobrze, będziemy mogli znów latać szybciej – tak jak legendarny Concorde, ale dużo ciszej.
X-59 QueSS to skrót od Quiet SuperSonic Technology (co oznacza Cicha Technologia Naddźwiękowa). Jest to amerykański samolot eksperymentalny, który jest rozwijany przez firmę Lockheed Martin dla NASA. Jego celem jest zbadanie możliwości lotu naddźwiękowego nad lądem bez wywoływania głośnego huku, który jest typowy dla samolotów przekraczających prędkość dźwięku.
X-59 ma mieć około 29 metrów długości i 9 metrów rozpiętości skrzydeł. Ma być napędzany przez jeden silnik turboodrzutowy General Electric F414, który pozwoli mu osiągnąć prędkość 1,4 raza większą niż dźwięk (około 1700 km/h). Samolot ma mieć też bardzo smukły kształt i specjalne skrzydła, które mają zmniejszać opór powietrza i redukować siłę uderzenia fali dźwiękowej.

(Reuters) -U.S. weapons maker Lockheed Martin (NYSE:LMT) on Tuesday raised its annual profit and sales outlook on strong demand for military equipment stoked by ongoing geopolitical uncertainties.
Shares of the company rose around 1% in premarket trading.
Defense companies in the U.S. have been successful in translating demand for air defense systems, missiles and other weapons into orders, triggered by the war in Ukraine and increasing tension in U.S.-China relations.
Lockheed's weapons, such the guided multiple launch rocket system and Javelin anti-tank missiles, made in conjunction with aerospace and defense firm RTX, have been used by Ukraine in its fight against Russia's full-scale invasion.
However, Lockheed's F-35 jets face delays in delivery to the Pentagon due to software upgrades, according to media reports.
The advanced jet is Lockheed's largest program, after having generated 27% of total consolidated net sales and 66% of aeronautics' net sales in 2022.
Quarterly sales at Lockheed's aeronautics unit, its largest, rose 17.3% from a year earlier to $6.88 billion. Last year's second quarter was hit by the end of some federal funding and supply chain constraints stemming from the pandemic.
The world's largest defense contractor now expects profit to be between $27 and $27.20 per share in 2023, compared with the previous guidance of $26.60 to $26.90 per share.
It expects full-year net sales to be between $66.25 billion and $66.75 billion, up from its earlier forecast of $65 billion to $66 billion.
Bethesda, Maryland-based Lockheed posted a net income of $6.63 per share for the second quarter, above Wall Street estimates of $6.45 per share, according to Refinitiv data. On an adjusted basis, profit was $6.73 per share.
Quarterly net sales rose 8.1% to $16.69 billion, beating expectations of $15.92 billion.

Canberra zwiększy o dwie trzecie wielkość swojej floty sił powietrznych. Australijskie lotnicze oddziały obrony wzmocnią się o ciężkie maszyny wyprodukowane przez firmę Lockheed Martin. Decyzja zapadła po zatwierdzeniu przez Kongres Stanów Zjednoczonych wyprzedaży 24 samolotów z amerykańskich wojskowych zasobów.
Czterosilnikowe Herculesy, które Australia postanowiła kupić od Waszyngtonu, zostaną dostarczone do Canberry dopiero w 2027 roku. Zastąpią flotę 12 podobnych maszyn, obecnie eksploatowanych przez Królewskie Australijskie Siły Powietrzne z bazy RAAF Richmond niedaleko Sydney.
