Lockheed Martin raises its 2026 outlook as missile production accelerates, backlog hits $292 billion, and stronger defense demand fuels long-term growth.

Lockheed Martin reported strong Q3 2026 results, raising annual guidance and achieving a record $292B backlog, driven by a major Patriot missile contract. LMT's only significant physical growth comes from the Missiles and Fire Control division, with expanded capacity expected to add $10B in annual revenue by 2031. Core Aeronautics, Rotary, and Space divisions face output ceilings, limiting organic growth to 4–6% annually, mostly from missile exports and inflation indexing.

The U.S. military needs more F-35s and Patriot missiles. Lockheed Martin helps to supply these and other key platforms.

Lockheed Martin NYSE: LMT reported double-digit third-quarter growth in sales and profit, generated $3 billion in free cash flow and increased its backlog to a record $292 billion, prompting the defense contractor to raise its full-year 2026 outlook again.
