Current report
The global trade environment is highly dynamic. Since February 2025, the U.S. government has imposed tariffs on imports from all countries with which the U.S. engages in trade. In response, certain countries have announced, and in some cases imposed, tariffs, and non-tariff countermeasures on goods that are imported from the U.S. Our businesses and suppliers import goods subject to U.S. imposed tariffs, as well as goods subject to counter tariffs imposed by other countries. We continue to pursue available options to mitigate the impact of tariffs and countermeasures, including (i) utilizing available exemptions or exclusions to tariffs, such as trade agreements, treaties or other statutory relief, (ii) evaluating operational and supply chain changes, and (iii) where feasible, increasing the prices of our goods and services. Our results for 2025 reflect our best estimate of the impact of the tariffs then in effect. As the duration, extent and enforceability of the tariffs and counter tariffs remain uncertain, we are continuing to evaluate the potential future impacts of the imposition of the announced tariffs to our business and financial condition. Based on current conditions, we do not believe that the tariffs announced by the U.S. or counter tariffs or other actions taken by other countries will have a material adverse effect upon our results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows. However, the actual financial impacts of tariffs are dependent upon various factors, most notably, the scope of goods covered by tariffs, the value of our imports subject to tariffs, the rate of tariffs applied, the timing and duration of tariffs, the enforceability of tariffs and counter-tariffs, the implementation of tariff and non-tariff countermeasures by countries subject to U.S. tariffs, and our and our suppliers’ ability to mitigate the impacts of tariffs. Changes in any of these factors and actual tariff costs incurred could significantly affect the estimates inherent in our financial statements, including those used in our estimates-at-completion (EACs), and estimates supporting the recoverability of our inventories, contract fulfillment costs, deferred tax assets, intangible assets and goodwill, and could have a material effect on our results of operations and cash flows in the periods recognized and paid.

U.S. Government’s Budget, Tax Legislation and Executive Orders. On February 3, 2026, Congress passed and the President signed a spending package to end a U.S. government shutdown. The spending package funds the government through the end of the government’s fiscal year, with the exception of the Department of Homeland Security, which remains subject to a continuing resolution.
Current report
On July 4, 2025, “An Act to Provide for Reconciliation Pursuant to Title II of the H. Con. Res. 14” (the Act) was enacted. The Act provides for several corporate tax changes including, but not limited to, restoring full expensing of domestic research and development costs, restoring immediate deductibility of certain capital expenditures, and changes in the computations of U.S. taxation on international earnings. See “Note 12: Income Taxes,” within Item 8 of this Form 10-K, for additional information.
Current report
The Act also provides a supplementary $156.2 billion to the DoW for obligations through 2029, which includes $24.4 billion for the Golden Dome for America project. The project, outlined in a January 27, 2025 Executive Order, calls for the development and deployment of a next-generation missile defense shield. On May 20, 2025, the DoW announced a draft architecture and implementation plan for the system. With next generation technologies across land, sea and space that build upon existing, proven defense capabilities, RTX’s portfolio is well-positioned to play a role in delivering reliable solutions for the Golden Dome for America initiative. Whether this Executive Order or corresponding funding will have a material impact on our business or results of operations will depend on a variety of factors, including actual awards, award timelines, mission priorities, and future budget determinations. The Act also includes $25.4 billion in funding to enhance DoW resources for munitions and supply chain resiliency. As a leading munitions manufacturer, RTX is strategically situated to play a key role in supporting this initiative.
Current report
The President has also issued multiple executive orders, including one intended to reform the DoW’s defense acquisition processes and promote expedited and streamlined acquisitions. Following issuance of those orders, the Secretary of War issued a memorandum and released the DoW’s Acquisition Transformation Strategy, which is aligned with the executive orders and seeks to overhaul the existing defense acquisition system through process changes that prioritize speed, flexibility, and rigorous execution. A subsequent executive order was issued that may limit corporate distributions, share repurchases, and executive compensation incentives during periods of defense contractor underperformance, insufficient prioritization, investment or production speed under their U.S. Government contracts. We are monitoring how these executive orders and related actions will be implemented and any potential future impacts to our business. While those impacts are uncertain, a limitation on our ability to issue distributions or engage in share repurchases related to the defense contractor performance executive order could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
Current report
The $1.2 billion decrease in net sales related to Acquisitions and divestitures, net in 2025 was primarily driven by the sale of the actuation and flight control business within our Collins segment completed in the third quarter of 2025, the sale of the Simmonds Precision Products business within our Collins segment completed in the fourth quarter of 2025, the sale of the Cybersecurity, Intelligence and Services (CIS) business within our Raytheon segment completed in the first quarter of 2024, and the sale of the Goodrich Hoist & Winch business within our Collins segment completed in the fourth quarter of 2024.
Current report
Net services sales increased $3.3 billion in 2025 compared to 2024, primarily due to increases in external services sales of $2.7 billion at Pratt & Whitney, $0.5 billion at Collins, and $0.1 billion at Raytheon.
Current report
Net products cost of sales increased $3.0 billion in 2025 compared to 2024, primarily driven by increases in external products cost of sales at Pratt & Whitney and Collins, each driven by the products sales changes noted above. The increase was partially offset by the absence of a $0.5 billion charge recorded in the second quarter of 2024 at Raytheon related to the Raytheon Contract Termination and charges of $0.2 billion recorded in the first quarter of 2024 at Collins as a result of initiating alternative titanium sources.
Current report
Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased $0.3 billion in 2025 compared to 2024, primarily driven by higher employee-related costs and higher restructuring costs related to ongoing cost reduction efforts driven by various workforce reductions initiated in 2025 at Collins.
Current report
The increase in Other income (expense), net of $0.5 billion in 2025 compared to 2024 was primarily due to a $0.2 billion gain on sale of the actuation and flight control business in the third quarter of 2025, a $0.1 billion gain on sale of the Simmonds Precision Products business in the fourth quarter of 2025, and $0.1 billion of gains related to the increase in fair value on investments in 2025. The increase in Other income (expense), net in 2025 compared to 2024 also benefited from the absence of a $0.9 billion charge related to the Resolution of Certain Legal Matters in 2024, partially offset by the absence of a prior year benefit of $0.4 billion gain on sale of the CIS business net of transaction and other related costs, a $0.2 billion benefit from a tax related indemnity receivable, a $0.1 billion gain on sale of Collin’s Goodrich Hoist & Winch business, and an insurance recovery at Pratt & Whitney of approximately $0.1 billion.
Current report
The increase in Operating profit of $2.8 billion in 2025 compared to 2024 was primarily driven by an increase in the organic operating performance of our segments of $1.5 billion, a $0.2 billion gain on sale of the actuation and flight control business in 2025, and a $0.1 billion gain on sale of the Simmonds Precision Products business in the fourth quarter of 2025. The increase in Operating profit in 2025 compared to 2024 also benefited from the absence of 2024 charges, including a $0.9 billion charge related to the Resolution of Certain Legal Matters, a $0.6 billion charge related to the Raytheon Contract Termination, and charges of $0.2 billion at Collins as a result of initiating alternative titanium sources. These increases were partially offset by the absence of prior year benefits including a $0.4 billion gain on sale of the CIS business, net of transaction and other related costs and a $0.2 billion benefit from a tax related indemnity receivable.
Current report
The change in Non-service pension income of $0.3 billion in 2025 compared to 2024 was primarily driven by a $0.3 billion settlement charge recorded in fourth quarter of 2025 associated with the annuity buy-out conversion. See “Note 10: Employee Benefit Plans” within Item 8 of this Form 10-K for further discussion.
Current report
Interest expense, net decreased $0.1 billion in 2025 compared to 2024, primarily driven by debt repayments in 2025.
Current report
Although the 2025 and 2024 effective tax rates are the same, the 2025 effective rate reflects a lower U.S. tax benefit associated with Foreign Derived Intangible Income resulting from the Act. Both periods include tax benefits associated with certain legal entity reorganizations and the tax effects of dispositions.

Current report
The organic net sales increase of $2.6 billion in 2025 compared to 2024 primarily relates to higher commercial aerospace aftermarket sales of $1.4 billion, higher defense sales of $0.7 billion and higher commercial OEM sales of $0.5 billion. The increase in commercial aftermarket sales was driven by higher volume across all aftermarket sales channels. The increase in defense sales was due to higher volume across multiple programs and platforms. The increase in commercial OEM sales was primarily driven by higher volume on widebody and narrowbody.
Current report
The organic operating profit increase of $0.5 billion in 2025 compared to 2024 was primarily due to higher commercial aerospace operating profit of $0.3 billion, principally driven by the higher sales volume discussed above, partially offset by the impact of tariffs and unfavorable commercial OEM mix. Defense operating profit increased $0.1 billion in 2025 compared to 2024 due to higher sales volume. Lower research and development expenses were partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses.
Current report
The decrease in net sales due to Acquisitions/Divestitures, net from 2025 compared to 2024 primarily relates to the sale of the actuation and flight control business completed in 2025, the sale of Simmonds Precision Products completed in 2025, and the sale of the Goodrich Hoist & Winch business completed in 2024.
Current report
The increase in Other operating profit of $0.5 billion in 2025 compared to 2024 primarily relates to higher net gains on the sale of businesses, as referenced above, of $0.3 billion in 2025 as compared to $0.1 billion in 2024. The increase is also driven by the absence of $0.2 billion of charges recorded in 2024 related to the recognition of unfavorable purchase commitments and an impairment of contract fulfillment costs that are no longer recoverable as a result of initiating alternative titanium sources, and the absence of a $0.2 billion charge related to the impairment of contract fulfillment costs due to a contract cancellation recognized in 2024.
Current report
The increase in restructuring costs from 2025 compared to 2024 relates to ongoing cost reduction efforts driven by various workforce reductions initiated in 2025.
Current report
Defense Bookings– In 2025, Collins recorded $12 billion in defense bookings, comprised of a number of smaller individual bookings under $0.5 billion.
Current report
The organic net sales increase of $4.8 billion in 2025 compared to 2024 was primarily driven by higher commercial aftermarket sales of $2.9 billion primarily driven by higher volume. Also contributing to the organic net sales increase was higher commercial OEM sales of $0.9 billion driven by favorable mix and higher volume. Military sales increased $1.0 billion, primarily due to higher production volume on the F135 program.
Current report
The organic operating profit increase of $0.4 billion in 2025 compared to 2024 reflects higher commercial aerospace operating profit of $0.5 billion and higher military operating profit of $0.2 billion. Higher commercial aftermarket volume and favorable commercial OEM mix more than offset the impacts of unfavorable aftermarket mix and higher tariffs and production costs. The increase in military operating profit was driven by the higher sales volume discussed above, as well as favorable mix and the absence of an unfavorable EAC adjustment of approximately $50 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, partially offset by higher production costs. These increases were partially offset by higher selling and general administrative expenses of $0.2 billion and the absence of a fourth quarter 2024 insurance recovery of approximately $0.1 billion.
Current report
The increase in Other operating profit in 2025 compared to 2024 primarily relates to a customer bankruptcy charge of $0.1 billion in 2025 compared to a $0.2 billion charge in 2024.
Current report
The organic net sales increase of $1.7 billion in 2025 compared to 2024 was primarily due to higher net sales of $1.6 billion from land and air defense systems programs driven by higher net sales on Patriot programs, international National Advanced Surface-to-Air Missile System (NASAMS) programs, and Lower Tier Air and Missile Defense Sensor (LTAMDS) programs. Also contributing to the increase was higher net sales of $0.7 billion from naval power programs primarily due to higher net sales on Evolved SeaSparrow Missile (ESSM) programs, SPY-6 radar programs, and certain classified programs. These increases were partially offset by lower net sales of $0.3 billion within air and space defense systems, primarily driven by lower development program volume partially offset by higher net sales on advanced medium-range air-to-air missile (AMRAAM) programs. Additionally, the organic net sales increase was partially offset by the absence of $0.3 billion of sales recognized in the fourth quarter of 2024 associated with the restart of certain contracts with a Middle East customer.
Current report
The change in our FAS/CAS operating adjustment of $0.1 billion in 2025 compared to 2024 was driven by a decrease in CAS expense, primarily due to increases in the applicable CAS discount rates and reductions in administrative expenses paid by the pension plans.
Current report
Included within Net income for 2024 was a $0.9 billion charge related to the Resolution of Certain Legal Matters and a $0.4 billion, net of tax, charge related to the Raytheon Contract Termination. During 2024, we paid a combined $1.5 billion related to the Resolution of Certain Legal Matters and the Raytheon Contract Termination.
Current report
The $3.4 billion increase in cash flows provided by operating activities in 2025 compared to 2024 was primarily driven by higher net income after adjustments to reconcile to net cash provided by operating activities driven by our segment performance, an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities due to the timing of collaborator payables, and the benefit of lower inventory growth. These increases were partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable due to higher volume and timing of collections.
Current report
The $0.3 billion change in cash flows used in investing activities in 2025 compared to 2024 primarily related to higher receipts from settlements of derivative contracts of $0.3 billion. Also contributing to the change was a $0.1 billion increase in net proceeds received from divestitures. In 2025, we received $1.2 billion from the actuation and flight control business divestiture and $0.7 billion from the sale of the Simmonds Precision Products business as compared to $1.3 billion from the CIS divestiture and $0.5 billion from the Goodrich Hoist & Winch divestiture in 2024.
Current report
The $0.9 billion increase in cash flows used in financing activities in 2025 compared to the 2024 was primarily driven by higher year-over-year long-term debt repayments of $0.9 billion. Refer to “Note 9: Borrowings and Lines of Credit” within Item 8 of this Form 10-K for additional information on debt repayments. Additionally, lower share repurchases were more than offset by higher dividends paid in 2025 as compared to 2024.
Current report
Pursuant to the ASR agreements entered into in 2023, the shares associated with the remaining portion of the aggregate purchase price have been settled over two tranches. In July 2024, the first tranche was settled upon final delivery to us of approximately 0.4 million shares of common stock. In September 2024, with respect to the second tranche, we owed approximately 2.2 million shares of common stock that we elected to cash settle for $261 million. The cash payment required as a result of the second tranche settlement was due to the significant increase in the price of our common stock during the ASR term. The final average price under the ASR was $94.28 per share.

U.S. Government’s Budget. Since the end of its fiscal year 2024, the U.S. government has been operating under two continuing resolutions, the most recent of which was signed on December 21, 2024, to keep the government funded through March 14, 2025 while Congress works to enact full year fiscal year 2025 (FY25) appropriation bills. Under a continuing resolution, federal agencies continue to operate generally at the same funding levels as the prior year, but typically new spending initiatives cannot be executed during this period. It is currently uncertain whether Congress will be able to enact FY25 appropriations bills and, if such bills are passed, the spending levels and priorities for defense and other areas. If Congress is unable to complete the FY25 appropriation bills (or pass another continuing resolution) by March 14, 2025, then the U.S. government would shut down, during which time federal agencies would cease all non-essential functions. In the event of a U.S. government shutdown, our business, program performance and results of operations could be impacted by the resulting disruptions to federal government offices, workers, and operations, including risks relating to the funding of certain programs, stop work orders, delays in contract awards, new program starts, payments for work performed, and other actions. We also may experience similar impacts in the event of an extended period of continuing resolutions. Generally, the significance of these impacts will primarily be based on the length of the shutdown or continuing resolution. Furthermore, under the Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023, which imposes limits on discretionary spending for defense and non-defense programs in exchange for the lifting of the debt ceiling in June 2023, if Congress fails to enact appropriation bills by April 30, 2025, budget caps will be reduced and corresponding automatic reductions to agency budget accounts will be enforced through sequestration.

On February 1, 2025, President Trump issued three executive orders directing the United States to impose new tariffs on imports from Canada, Mexico, and China, to take effect on February 4, 2025, and on February 3, 2025, President Trump announced his intention to pause tariffs on Canada and Mexico for the next month. The tariffs impose an additional 25%ad valorem rate of duty on all imports from Canada and Mexico (other than imports of Canadian energy resources exports, which are subject to a 10%ad valorem rate of duty) and an additional 10% ad valorem rate of duty on all imports from China. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of the imposition of the announced tariffs to our business and financial condition. RTX also exports products to Canada, Mexico and China and we are currently monitoring the potential impact, if any, of actions taken in response to these tariffs by Canada, Mexico and China. On January 28, 2025, RTX announced its full-year 2025 financial outlook, and that outlook does not reflect the impact of tariffs on imports from Canada, Mexico and China announced pursuant to the February 1, 2025 executive orders. While we do not believe that the tariffs announced by the United States on February 1, 2025 will have a material adverse effect upon our results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity, there may be an impact to our previously issued outlook. The actual impact of the new tariffs is subject to a number of factors including the effective date and duration of such tariffs, changes in the amount, scope and nature of the tariffs in the future, any countermeasures that the target countries may take and any mitigating actions that may become available.
Previous report
Net sales increased $7.3 billion organically in 2023 compared to 2022, primarily due to higher organic sales of $3.2 billion at Collins, $3.1 billion at Pratt & Whitney, and $1.3 billion at Raytheon. The $0.1 billion decrease in net sales related to Acquisitions and divestitures, net in 2023 compared to 2022, was primarily driven by the divestiture of a small non-core naval power business in the fourth quarter of 2022. The decrease in Other net sales of $5.4 billion in 2023 compared to 2022, was primarily driven by the net sales charge of $5.4 billion associated with the Powder Metal Matter recognized in the third quarter of 2023.
Previous report
Net products sales decreased $1.2 billion in 2023 compared to 2022, primarily driven by a $3.8 billion decrease at Pratt & Whitney due to a net sales charge of $5.3 billion associated with the Powder Metal Matter, partially offset by increases of $2.1 billion at Collins and $0.6 billion at Raytheon. Net services sales increased $3.0 billion in 2023 compared to 2022, primarily due to increases in external services sales of $1.7 billion at Pratt & Whitney, $0.8 billion at Collins, and $0.6 billion at Raytheon, partially offset by a services sales charge of $0.1 billion associated with the Powder Metal Matter.
Previous report
The organic increase in Total cost of sales in 2023 compared to 2022 of $5.7 billion was primarily due to the organic net sales increases at Pratt & Whitney, Collins, and Raytheon noted above. The $0.1 billion decrease in cost of sales related to Acquisitions and divestitures, net in 2023 compared to 2022, was primarily driven by the divestiture of a small non-core naval power business in the fourth quarter of 2022. The decrease in Other cost of sales of $2.6 billion in 2023 compared to 2022 was primarily driven by a net reduction in cost of sales of $2.5 billion primarily reflecting our partners’ 49% share of the Powder Metal Matter.
Previous report
Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased $0.2 billion in 2023 compared to 2022, primarily driven by a $0.1 billion charge at Pratt & Whitney related to a customer insolvency in the second quarter of 2023, costs related to our segment realignment and divestitures in 2023, and increased employee-related costs, partially offset by the absence of $0.1 billion of charges recorded in the first quarter of 2022 related to increased estimates for credit losses due to global sanctions on and export controls with respect to Russia. See “Note 1: Basis of Presentation and Summary of Accounting Principles” within Item 8 of this Form 10-K for additional information on Russia sanctions.
Previous report
Other income (expense), net in 2023 was relatively consistent with 2022, as the net unfavorable year-over-year impact of foreign exchange gains and losses of $0.1 billion, was more than offset by the absence of $0.1 billion of charges associated with the disposition of three businesses in 2022 and a $0.1 billion gain on sale of land during the first quarter of 2023. The remaining decrease was spread across individually less significant items.
Previous report
The decrease in Operating profit of $1.9 billion in 2023 compared to 2022 was primarily driven by a decrease at Pratt & Whitney primarily driven by the $2.9 billion charge associated with the Powder Metal Matter and a decrease in the change in our FAS/CAS operating adjustment, partially offset by an increase in Operating profit at Collins and Raytheon, all of which are described below in “Segment Review.”
Previous report
The change in Non-service pension income of $0.1 billion in 2023 compared to 2022 was primarily driven by an increase in interest rates during 2022 and prior years’ pension asset returns performing below our expected return on plan assets (EROA) assumption, partially offset by an increase in our 2023 EROA assumption.
Previous report
Interest expense, net increased $0.2 billion in 2023 compared to 2022. The increase in Interest expense of $0.4 billion was primarily due to the long-term debt issuances in the first and the fourth quarters of 2023, interest and fees on short-term loans related to an accelerated share repurchase (ASR), and the increase in commercial paper activity in 2023. The change in Other non-operating expense (income) of $0.1 billion was primarily driven by a change in the mark-to-market fair value of marketable securities held in trusts associated with certain of our nonqualified deferred compensation and employee benefit plans and an increase in dividend income.
Previous report
The lower 2023 effective tax rate compared to 2022 is primarily driven by a favorable impact related to the $2.9 billion charge for the Powder Metal Matter and the associated tax benefit of $663 million, and the absence of a $207 million tax benefit recorded in 2022 related to legal entity and operational reorganizations.

(2) 2022 includes the net expenses related to the U.S. Army’s Lower Tier Air and Missile Defense Sensor (LTAMDS) program. Beginning in 2023, LTAMDS results are included in the Raytheon segment.
Previous report
The change in net EAC adjustments of $0.6 billion in 2023 compared to 2022 was primarily due to unfavorable changes in net EAC adjustments at Pratt & Whitney and to a lesser extent at Collins and Raytheon. Included in the change at Pratt & Whitney was the unfavorable impact of $0.1 billion recorded in the third quarter of 2023 as a result of increased cost to our aftermarket contracts resulting from the Powder Metal Matter and an unfavorable impact of approximately $60 million recorded in the fourth quarter of 2023 as a result of increased cost on a military program. The change in net EAC adjustments at Pratt & Whitney also includes the absence of a $50 million favorable contract adjustment resulting from a contract modification on a commercial aftermarket program in the second quarter of 2022. The change at Collins was spread across numerous individual programs, with no individual or common significant driver. The change at Raytheon was primarily due to unfavorable changes in net EAC adjustments related to certain fixed price development contracts and $51 million of unfavorable EAC adjustments related to significant contract options exercised in 2023.
Previous report
The organic net sales increase of $3.2 billion in 2023 compared to 2022 primarily relates to higher commercial aerospace aftermarket sales of $2.1 billion, including increases across all aftermarket sales channels. These increases were principally driven by the continued recovery of commercial air traffic which resulted in an increase in flight hours. Commercial aerospace OEM sales increased $1.1 billion due to increased production rates in narrow-body, wide-body, and business jets. Military sales were relatively consistent in 2023 compared to 2022.
Previous report
The organic operating profit increase of $0.9 billion in 2023 compared to 2022 was primarily due to higher commercial aftermarket volume and favorable mix, partially offset by lower commercial aerospace OEM as drop through on volume was more than offset by higher production costs. This increase in commercial aerospace operating profit was partially offset by $0.2 billion of higher selling, general, and administrative expenses and research and developments costs primarily due to increased employee-related costs. Military operating profit decreased $0.1 billion primarily due to unfavorable mix and higher production costs.
Previous report
The increase in Other operating profit of $0.2 billion in 2023 compared to 2022 was primarily due to the absence of $0.1 billion of pre-tax charges related to global sanctions and export controls with respect to Russia recorded in 2022, the absence of $0.1 billion of charges associated with the disposition of two non-core businesses in 2022, and the net favorable customer settlements discussed above. The above items were partially offset by $0.1 billion of divestiture costs related to the pending sale of our actuation and flight control business.

The organic net sales increase of $3.1 billion in 2023 compared to 2022 primarily reflects higher commercial aftermarket sales of $1.9 billion, primarily due to an increase in volume, content, and favorable mix. The increase also includes higher commercial OEM sales of $0.9 billion, primarily driven by higher volume and favorable mix. Military sales increased $0.3 billion, primarily due to higher F135 sustainment volume.
Previous report
The organic operating profit increase of $0.4 billion in 2023 compared to 2022 was primarily driven byhigher commercial aerospace operating profit of $0.6 billion, principally due to the aftermarket sales increase discussed above, partially offset by lower commercial OEM operating profit as the OEM volume increase combined with higher production costs more than offset the benefit from favorable mix. Commercial aerospace operating profit in 2023 also benefited from two favorable contract matters totaling $0.1 billion, which was partially offset by the absence of a prior year $50 million favorable contract adjustment resulting from a contract modification on a commercial aftermarket contract. Military operating profit was relatively consistent compared to 2022. The increase from the military sales volume was more than offset by higher production costs and an unfavorable EAC adjustment of $0.1 billion in the fourth quarter of 2023. Higher research and development expenses were partially offset by lower selling, general, and administrative expenses.
Previous report
The change in Other operating profit (loss) of $2.9 billion in 2023 compared to 2022 was primarily due to the charge recognized in the third quarter of 2023 related to the Powder Metal Matter of $2.9 billion and a $0.2 billion charge related to a customer insolvency during the second quarter of 2023, partially offset by the absence of $0.2 billion of pre-tax charges recorded in the first quarter of 2022 related to global sanctions on and export controls with respect to Russia. See “Note 1: Basis of Presentation and Summary of Accounting Principles” within Item 8 of this Form 10-K for additional information on Russia sanctions.

The organic net sales increase of $1.3 billion in 2023 compared to 2022 was primarily due to higher net sales of $0.5 billion from advanced technology programs, $0.3 billion from air and space defense systems programs, $0.2 billion from cybersecurity, intelligence and services programs, and $0.2 billion from naval power programs. The increase in advanced technology programs includes higher net sales on an advanced development program awarded in the third quarter of 2022, and higher net sales on certain classified programs awarded in 2022. The increase in air and space defense systems programs includes higher net sales on the StormBreaker program, driven by awards in the first and fourth quarters of 2023 and higher net sales on the Advanced Medium Range Air-to-Air Missile (AMRAAM) program, driven by an award in the second quarter of 2023. The increase in cybersecurity, intelligence and services programs was driven by certain classified programs as well as federal and civil programs. The increase in naval power programs was due to higher volumes on Naval Strike Missile and AIM-9X programs.

The change in corporate expenses and other unallocated items of $43 million in 2023 compared to 2022 was primarily due to a decrease in expenses related to the LTAMDS program, which are included in the Raytheon segment beginning in 2023, partially offset by an increase in costs related to our segment realignment in 2023, with the remaining change spread across multiple items.
Previous report
The change in our FAS/CAS operating adjustment of $0.3 billion in 2023 compared to 2022 was driven by a $0.5 billion decrease in CAS expense, partially offset by a $0.2 billion decrease in FAS service cost. The decrease in CAS expense was primarily due to changes to the Raytheon Company domestic pension plans announced in December 2020 that were effective December 31, 2022, and the recognition of historical CAS gain/loss experience. Similarly, the decrease in FAS service cost was primarily due to changes to the Raytheon Company domestic pension plans announced in December 2020 that were effective December 31, 2022. Refer to “Note 10: Employee Benefit Plans” within Item 8 of this Form 10-K for additional information on the Raytheon Company domestic pension plan change.

Legal Matters. As previously announced, in 2024 the Company resolved several outstanding legal matters, herein referred to as “Resolution of Certain Legal Matters.” The Company entered into a deferred prosecution agreement (DPA) (DPA-1) with the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Company settled an administrative proceeding with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) (the SEC Administrative Order) to resolve the previously disclosed criminal and civil government investigations into payments made by Raytheon Company and its joint venture, Thales-Raytheon Systems (TRS), in connection with certain Middle East contracts since 2012 (Thales-Raytheon Systems and Related Matters). The Company also entered into a DPA and a False Claims Act (FCA) settlement agreement with the DOJ to resolve previously disclosed criminal and civil government investigations into defective pricing claims for certain legacy Raytheon Company contracts entered into between 2011 and 2013 and in 2017 (DOJ Investigation and Contract Pricing Disputes). Under these DPAs and the SEC Administrative Order, Raytheon Company and the Company are required to retain, among other things, an independent compliance monitor satisfactory to the DOJ and the SEC (for a term ending three years from the date on which the monitor is engaged) and are required to undertake certain cooperation and disclosure obligations (for a term commencing on the effective date of DPA-1 and the SEC Administrative Order, as applicable, and ending three years from the date on which the monitor is engaged). The compliance monitor will oversee Raytheon Company’s and the Company’s compliance with their respective obligations under the DPAs and the SEC Administrative Order. The DPAs further provide that, in the event the DOJ, in its sole discretion, determines during the period of deferral of prosecution that Raytheon Company or the Company have violated any provision of either DPA, Raytheon Company or the Company may be subject to prosecution for any federal criminal violation, including the charges against Raytheon Company in the relevant DPA. The SEC Administrative Order further provides that, in the event of a breach of the SEC Administrative Order, the SEC may vacate the SEC Administrative Order and institute proceedings against the Company. In the event of any such determination or breach, the Company may face additional adverse impacts. In addition, the Company resolved certain voluntarily disclosed export controls violations primarily identified in connection with the integration of Rockwell Collins and, to a lesser extent, Raytheon Company, including certain violations that were resolved pursuant to a Consent Agreement (CA) with the Department of State (DOS) (Trade Compliance Matters). The CA, which has a three-year term, requires the Company to implement remedial compliance measures and to conduct an external audit of the Company’s International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) compliance program. The CA …

Global Supply Chain. We are dependent on a global supply chain and have experienced supply chain disruptions that resulted in delays and increased costs and adversely affected our performance. These disruptions impacted our ability to procure raw materials, microelectronics, and certain commodities on a timely basis and/or at expected prices, and are driven by supply chain market constraints and macroeconomic conditions, including inflation and labor market shortages. Current geopolitical conditions, including conflicts and other causes of strained intercountry relations, as well as sanctions and other trade restrictive activities, are contributing to these issues. Furthermore, our suppliers and subcontractors have been impacted by these same issues. We have implemented actions and programs to mitigate some of the impacts but anticipate supply chain disruptions to continue.

Economic Environment. The inflationary environment has increased material and component prices, labor rates, and supplier costs and has negatively impacted our performance, including our productivity expectations. Due to the nature of our government and commercial aerospace businesses, and their respective customer and supplier contracts, we are not always able to offset cost increases by increasing our contract value or pricing, in particular on our fixed-price contracts. Increasing material, component, and labor prices could subject us to losses in our fixed price contracts in the event of cost overruns. In addition, higher interest rates have increased the cost of borrowing and tightened the availability of capital. Among other things, these effects can constrain our customers’ purchasing power and decrease orders for our products and services and impact the ability of our customers to make payments and our suppliers to perform. Moreover, volatility in interest rates and financial markets can lead to economic uncertainty, an economic downturn or recession, and impact the demand for our products and services as well as our supply chain. We continue to pursue strategic and operational initiatives to help address these macroeconomic pressures, including our digital transformation, operational modernization, cost reduction, and advanced technology programs, and we apply our Customer Oriented Results and Excellence (CORE) operating platform to the execution of these initiatives. However, the impact of these pressures and corresponding initiatives is uncertain and subject to a range of factors and future developments.

We continue to closely monitor potential impacts to RTX’s business, customers, suppliers, employees, and operations in Israel, the Middle East, and the region at large due to the war in Gaza, including a recently-announced ceasefire, the related escalation of conflict and instability in the region, and the regime change in Syria. RTX’s commercial manufacturing facilities in Israel remain open and operational and have continued exporting products and importing critical items and raw materials. RTX’s defense programs’ ability to receive components from Israel has not been impacted in any material respect, although we could experience future delivery delays of certain products if the ceasefire does not hold, or if further escalations arise. The overall impacts to RTX from this situation have been minimal; however, given the volatile nature of the situation, the potential impacts to RTX are subject to change.

We also focus on backlog as a key financial performance measure of our forward-looking sales growth. Total backlog was $218 billion and $196 billion as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Backlog, which is equivalent to our remaining performance obligations (RPO) for our sales contracts, represents the aggregate dollar value of firm orders for which products have not been provided or service has not been performed and excludes unexercised contract options and potential orders under ordering-type contracts (e.g., indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) type contracts). Backlog generally increases with bookings and/or orders and generally decreases as sales are recognized on these bookings and is affected by changes in foreign exchange rates, as well as contract cancellations and terminations, and cost underruns on cost-type contracts.

We provide the organic change in Net sales and Cost of sales for our consolidated results of operations as well as the organic change in Net sales and Operating profit for our segments. We believe that these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors because they provide transparency to the underlying performance of our business, which allows for better year-over-year comparability. The organic change in Net sales, Cost of sales, and Operating profit excludes acquisitions and divestitures, net, and the effect of foreign currency exchange rate translation fluctuations and other significant non-operational items and/or significant operational items that may occur at irregular intervals (Other). Additionally, the organic change in Cost of sales and Operating profit excludes restructuring costs, the FAS/CAS operating adjustment, and costs related to certain acquisition accounting adjustments. Restructuring costs generally arise from severance related to workforce reductions and facility exit costs. We are continuously evaluating our cost structure and have implemented restructuring actions in an effort to keep our cost structure competitive. 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 U.S. GAAP and our pension and PRB expense under U.S. government Cost Accounting Standards (CAS), primarily related to our Raytheon segment. 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.

The change in net EAC adjustments of $0.2 billion in 2024 compared to 2023 was primarily due to favorable changes in net EAC adjustments at Pratt & Whitney and Raytheon, partially offset by unfavorable changes in net EAC adjustments at Collins. The change at Pratt was primarily driven by the absence of a $0.1 billion unfavorable impact recorded in the third quarter of 2023 as a result of increased cost to our aftermarket contracts resulting from the Powder Metal Matter. The change at Collins was spread across numerous individual programs, with no individual or common significant driver. The change at Raytheon was primarily due to improvement in net EAC adjustments related to certain fixed price development contracts.
