Lockheed Martin Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2021 Financial Results

BETHESDA, Md., Jan. 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Lockheed Martin Corporation [NYSE: LMT] today reported fourth quarter 2021 net sales of $17.7 billion, compared to $17.0 billion in the fourth quarter of 2020. Net earnings from continuing operations in the fourth quarter of 2021 were $2.0 billion, or $7.47 per share, compared to $1.8 billion, or $6.38 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2020. Cash from operations was $4.3 billion in the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to $1.8 billion in the fourth quarter of 2020. Cash from operations in the fourth quarter of 2020 was after $1.0 billion of discretionary pension contributions.

"We closed the year on a strong note with solid growth in fourth quarter sales, segment operating profit, and earnings per share, while cash exceeded our projections as we delivered on our customer commitments and drove strong execution," said Lockheed Martin Chairman, President and CEO James Taiclet. "We delivered significant value back to shareholders in 2021, including $7 billion in dividends and share repurchases, and our team continued to provide world-class support to our customers despite the ongoing challenges of the global pandemic. Through our strong balance sheet, we continue to invest in the many emerging growth opportunities ahead – from new aircraft competitions around the world, to our classified portfolio, to solid demand for our signature programs, to emerging technologies like hypersonics. Looking ahead to 2022, we will remain fully dedicated to service to our customers and dynamic and disciplined capital allocation for the benefit of our shareholders."

Net earnings for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2021, included net gains of $85 million ($64 million, or $0.23 per share, after-tax) due to increases in the fair value of investments held in the Lockheed Martin Ventures Fund. Net earnings for the year ended Dec. 31, 2021, included a noncash pension settlement charge of $1.7 billion ($1.3 billion, or $4.72 per share, after-tax) associated with the $4.9 billion gross pension liability transfer completed in the third quarter; net gains of $265 million ($199 million, or $0.72 per share, after-tax) due to increases in the fair value of investments held in the Lockheed Martin Ventures Fund; and severance and restructuring charges of $36 million ($28 million, or $0.10 per share, after-tax) announced in the first quarter. Net earnings for the year ended Dec. 31, 2020, included a non-cash impairment charge of $128 million ($96 million, or $0.34 per share, after tax) for an investment in a joint venture; and severance charges of $27 million ($21 million, or $0.08 per share, after-tax).

Update on Proposed Aerojet Rocketdyne Acquisition

Earlier this month, Lockheed Martin and Aerojet Rocketdyne agreed with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) that the parties would not close the transaction before Jan. 27, 2022, to enable the parties to discuss the scope and nature of the merchant supply and firewall commitments previously offered by Lockheed Martin. Lockheed Martin has been advised by the FTC that its concerns regarding the transaction cannot be addressed adequately by the terms of a consent order. Lockheed Martin believes it is highly likely that the FTC will vote to sue to block the transaction and expects they will make a decision before Jan. 27, 2022.

If the FTC sues to block the transaction, Lockheed Martin could elect to defend the lawsuit or terminate the merger agreement. Additional information concerning the transaction can be found in Lockheed Martin's 2021 Form 10-K that has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Lockheed Martin continues to believe in the benefits of the transaction for the United States and its allies, the industry, and all of the company's stakeholders.

The company's current 2022 financial outlook reflects known impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic based on the company's understanding at the time of this news release and its experience to date. However, the company cannot predict how the pandemic will evolve or what impact it will continue to have. Therefore, no additional impacts to the company's operations or its supply chain as a result of continued disruption from, or policies in response to, COVID-19 for periods subsequent to the time of this news release have been incorporated into the company's current 2022 financial outlook. The ultimate impacts of COVID-19 on the company's financial results for 2022 and beyond remain uncertain and there can be no assurance that the company's underlying assumptions are correct. Additionally, the current 2022 financial outlook does not include any future gains or losses related to changes in valuations of the company's investments held in the Lockheed Martin Ventures Fund as the company cannot predict changes in the valuation of its investments or market events. It also assumes continued accelerated payments to suppliers, with a focus on small and at-risk businesses. Further, the 2022 financial outlook does not incorporate the pending acquisition of Aerojet Rocketdyne Holdings, Inc. and related transaction costs.

The net FAS/CAS pension adjustment is presented as a single amount and includes total expected U.S. Government cost accounting standards (CAS) pension cost of approximately $1.8 billion and total expected financial accounting standards (FAS) pension income of approximately $460 million. CAS pension cost and the service cost component of FAS pension income are included in operating profit. The non-service cost components of FAS pension income are included in non-operating income (expense). For additional detail regarding the pension amounts reported in operating and non-operating results, refer to the supplemental table included at the end of this news release.


4

The net FAS/CAS pension adjustment was calculated using a 2.875% discount rate at Dec. 31, 2021, an approximate 10.5% return on plan assets in 2021, and an expected 6.5% long-term rate of return on plan assets in future years.


5

A provision of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 went into effect on Jan. 1, 2022 that requires companies to capitalize and amortize research and development costs over five years rather than deducting such costs in the year incurred for tax purposes.  The company currently estimates that unless the provision is deferred, modified, or repealed, this change will result in an additional $500 million of tax payments in 2022, which has been reflected in the company's current 2022 financial outlook for cash from operations. This change is not expected to have a significant impact on the company's net earnings.








Cash Deployment Activities

The company's cash deployment activities in the quarter and year end Dec. 31, 2021, included the following:

  • accelerating $2.2 billion of payments to suppliers during the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2021, that were due in the first quarter of 2022, compared to accelerating $2.1 billion of payments to suppliers in the fourth quarter of 2020 that were due in the first quarter of 2021;

Net sales and operating profit of the company's business segments exclude intersegment sales, cost of sales, and profit as these activities are eliminated in consolidation. Operating profit of the company's business segments includes the company's share of earnings or losses from equity method investees as the operating activities of the investees are closely aligned with the operations of its business segments.

Operating profit of the company's business segments also excludes the FAS/CAS pension operating adjustment described below, a portion of corporate costs not considered allowable or allocable to contracts with the U.S. Government under the applicable U.S. Government cost accounting standards (CAS) or federal acquisition regulations (FAR), and other items not considered part of management's evaluation of segment operating performance such as a portion of management and administration costs, legal fees and settlements, environmental costs, stock-based compensation expense, retiree benefits, significant severance actions, significant asset impairments, gains or losses from divestitures, and other miscellaneous corporate activities.

The company recovers CAS pension cost through the pricing of its products and services on U.S. Government contracts and, therefore, recognizes CAS pension cost in each of its business segments' net sales and cost of sales. The company's consolidated financial statements must present pension and other postretirement benefit plan income calculated in accordance with FAS requirements under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The operating portion of the net FAS/CAS pension adjustment represents the difference between the service cost component of FAS pension (expense) income and total CAS pension cost. The non-service FAS pension (expense) income component is included in other non-service FAS pension (expense) income in our consolidated statements of earnings. The net FAS/CAS pension adjustment increases or decreases CAS pension cost to equal total FAS pension income (both service and non-service).

Changes in net sales and operating profit generally are expressed in terms of volume. Changes in volume refer to increases or decreases in sales or operating profit resulting from varying production activity levels, deliveries or service levels on individual contracts. Volume changes in segment operating profit are typically based on the current profit booking rate for a particular contract. In addition, comparability of the company's segment sales, operating profit and operating margin may be impacted favorably or unfavorably by changes in profit booking rates on the company's contracts for which it recognizes revenue over time using the percentage-of-completion cost-to-cost method to measure progress towards completion. Increases in profit booking rates, typically referred to as risk retirements, usually relate to revisions in the estimated total costs to fulfill the performance obligations that reflect improved conditions on a particular contract. Conversely, conditions on a particular contract may deteriorate, resulting in an increase in the estimated total costs to fulfill the performance obligations and a reduction in the profit booking rate. Increases or decreases in profit booking rates are recognized in the current period and reflect the inception-to-date effect of such changes.

Segment operating profit and margin may also be impacted favorably or unfavorably by other items, which may or may not impact sales. Favorable items may include the positive resolution of contractual matters, cost recoveries on severance and restructuring charges, insurance recoveries and gains on sales of assets. Unfavorable items may include the adverse resolution of contractual matters; restructuring charges, except for significant severance actions which are excluded from segment operating results; reserves for disputes; certain asset impairments; and losses on sales of certain assets. 

The company's consolidated net adjustments not related to volume, including net profit booking rate adjustments, represented approximately 29% and 28% of total segment operating profit in the quarter and year ended Dec. 31, 2021, as compared to 25% and 26% in the quarter and year ended Dec. 31, 2020.

Aeronautics' net sales during the fourth quarter of 2021 increased $413 million, or 6%, compared to the same period in 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to higher net sales of approximately $270 million for the F-35 program due to higher volume on production contracts that was partially offset by lower volume on development contracts; and about $110 million for classified contracts due to higher volume and risk retirements.

Aeronautics' operating profit during the fourth quarter of 2021 increased $93 million, or 13%, compared to the same period in 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to higher operating profit of approximately $55 million for classified contracts due to higher risk retirements; and about $35 million for the C-130 program due to higher risk retirements on sustainment activities. Operating profit for the F-35 program was comparable as higher volume on production contracts was offset by lower risk retirements on sustainment contracts. Adjustments not related to volume, including net profit booking rate adjustments, were $80 million higher in the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to the same period in 2020.

Aeronautics' net sales in 2021 increased $482 million, or 2%, compared to 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to higher net sales of approximately $290 million on classified contracts due to higher volume; about $180 million for the F-16 program due to higher volume on production contracts that was partially offset by lower sustainment volume; approximately $75 million for the F-35 program primarily due to higher volume on production and sustainment contracts that was partially offset by lower volume on development contracts; and about $30 million for the C-130 program primarily due to higher volume on production contracts and higher risk retirements on sustainment activities. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of approximately $170 million for lower sustainment volume for the F-22 program.

Aeronautics' operating profit in 2021 decreased $44 million, or 2%, compared to 2020. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower operating profit of approximately $120 million for classified contracts primarily due to a $225 million loss recognized in the second quarter of 2021 for performance issues experienced on a classified program that was partially offset by higher risk retirements on other classified programs recognized in the second half of 2021; and about $70 million for the F-35 program due to lower risk retirements and volume on development contracts and lower risk retirements on production contracts that were partially offset by higher risk retirements and volume on sustainment contracts. These decreases were partially offset by an increase of approximately $90 million for the C-130 program due to higher risk retirements on sustainment contracts; and about $50 million for the F-16 program due to higher risk retirements on sustainment contracts and higher production volume. Adjustments not related to volume, including net profit booking rate adjustments, were $60 million lower in 2021 compared to 2020.

MFC's net sales during the fourth quarter of 2021 increased $353 million, or 12%, compared to the same period in 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to higher net sales of approximately $200 million for integrated air and missile defense programs due to higher volume (primarily PAC-3); and about $190 million for tactical and strike missile programs due to higher volume (primarily Hellfire, Long Range Anti-Ship Missile (LRASM) and Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missile (JASSM)). These increases were partially offset by a decrease of about $40 million for sensors and global sustainment programs due to lower volume (primarily Special Operations Forces Global Logistics Support Services (SOF GLSS)).

MFC's operating profit during the fourth quarter of 2021 increased $64 million, or 17%, compared to the same period in 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to higher operating profit of approximately $40 million for tactical and strike missile programs due to higher volume (primarily Hellfire, LRASM and JASSM) and higher risk retirements (primarily Guided Multiple Launch Rocket Systems (GMLRS)); and about $25 million for integrated air and missile defense programs due to higher volume (primarily PAC-3). Adjustments not related to volume, including net profit booking rate adjustments, were comparable in the fourth quarter of 2021 to the same period in 2020.

MFC's net sales in 2021 increased $436 million, or 4%, compared to 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to higher net sales of approximately $340 million for integrated air and missile defense programs due to higher volume and risk retirements (primarily PAC-3); and about $215 million for tactical and strike missile programs due to higher volume (primarily LRASM and JASSM). These increases were partially offset by a decrease of approximately $90 million for sensors and global sustainment programs due to lower volume (primarily Sniper Advanced Targeting Pod (SNIPER®) and Apache) that was partially offset by close out activities related to the Warrior Capability Sustainment Program (Warrior) that was terminated by the customer in March 2021.

MFC's operating profit in 2021 increased $103 million, or 7%, compared to 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to higher operating profit of approximately $65 million for integrated air and missile defense programs due to higher risk retirements and volume (primarily PAC-3); about $45 million for tactical and strike missile programs due to higher volume (primarily LRASM and JASSM) and higher risk retirements (primarily GMLRS); and approximately $20 million for sensors and global sustainment programs due to the reversal of a portion of previously recorded losses on the Warrior program in the second and third quarters of 2021 that will not recur as a result of the program being terminated, which was partially offset by lower volume (primarily SNIPER and Apache). These increases were partially offset by charges of approximately $25 million due to performance issues on an energy program during the third quarter of 2021. Adjustments not related to volume, including net profit booking rate adjustments, were $85 million higher in 2021 compared to 2020.

RMS' net sales during the fourth quarter of 2021 increased $248 million, or 6%, compared to the same period in 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to higher net sales of approximately $115 million for various C6ISR (command, control, communications, computers, cyber, combat systems, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance) programs due to higher volume; about $70 million for training and logistics solutions (TLS) programs due to higher volume; and approximately $45 million for integrated warfare systems and sensors (IWSS) programs due to higher volume on Canadian Surface Combatant (CSC) and Aegis programs.

RMS' operating profit during the fourth quarter of 2021 increased $42 million, or 10%, compared to the same period in 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to higher operating profit of approximately $30 million for Sikorsky helicopter programs due to higher risk retirements (primarily Combat Rescue Helicopter (CRH) and VH-92A); and about $20 million for C6ISR programs due to higher risk retirements. Adjustments not related to volume, including net profit booking rate adjustments, were $10 million higher in the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to the same period in 2020.

RMS' net sales in 2021 increased $794 million, or 5%, compared to 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to higher net sales of $540 million for Sikorsky helicopter programs due to higher production volume (Black Hawk, CH-53K and CRH); and about $340 million for TLS programs primarily due to the delivery of an international pilot training system in the first quarter of 2021. These increases were partially offset by lower net sales of about $65 million for IWSS programs due to lower volume on the LCS and TPQ-53 programs that were partially offset by higher volume on the CSC and Aegis programs.

RMS' operating profit in 2021 increased $183 million, or 11%, compared to 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to higher operating profit of approximately $140 million for Sikorsky helicopter programs due to higher risk retirements (Black Hawk and CH-53K), higher production volume (Black Hawk and CRH), and lower charges on the CRH program in the first half of 2021; and about $10 million for TLS programs due to the delivery of an international pilot training system in the first quarter of 2021. Operating profit for IWSS programs was comparable as lower risk retirements on the LCS program and lower volume on the TPQ-53 program were offset by higher volume on the CSC program and lower charges on a ground-based radar program. Adjustments not related to volume, including net profit booking rate adjustments, were $80 million higher in 2021 compared 2020.

Space's net sales during the fourth quarter of 2021 decreased $317 million, or 10%, compared to the same period in 2020. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower net sales of approximately $385 million due to the June 30, 2021, renationalization of the Atomic Weapons Establishment (AWE) program after which date, the ongoing operations are no longer included in the company's financial results; and about $80 million for commercial civil space programs due to lower volume (primarily Orion). These decreases were partially offset by higher net sales of about $165 million for strategic and missile defense programs due to higher volume (primarily Next Generation Interceptor (NGI), Fleet Ballistic Missile (FBM) and hypersonic development).

Space's operating profit during the fourth quarter of 2021 decreased $60 million, or 16%, compared to the same period in 2020. The decrease was primarily attributable to approximately $60 million of lower equity earnings from the company's investment in United Launch Alliance (ULA) due to launch vehicle mix; and about $25 million for commercial civil space programs due to lower risk retirements and volume (primarily Orion). These decreases were partially offset by an increase of approximately $10 million for strategic and missile defense programs due to higher risk retirements (primarily FBM) that were partially offset by lower risk retirements (primarily hypersonic development). There was not a significant decrease in operating profit for the AWE program as its operating profit in the fourth quarter of 2020 was mostly offset by accelerated and incremental amortization expense for intangible assets as a result of the renationalization. Adjustments not related to volume, including net profit booking rate adjustments, were $10 million higher in the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to the same period in 2020.

Space's net sales in 2021 decreased $66 million, or 1%, compared to 2020. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower net sales of approximately $535 million due to the renationalization of the AWE program; and about $105 million for commercial civil space programs due to lower volume (primarily Orion). These decreases were partially offset by higher net sales of approximately $405 million for strategic and missile defense programs due to higher volume (primarily hypersonic development and NGI programs); and about $140 million for national security space programs due to higher volume and risk retirements (primarily Next Gen OPIR and SBIRS).

Space's operating profit in 2021 decreased $15 million, or 1%, compared to 2020. The decrease was primarily attributable to approximately $70 million of lower equity earnings from the company's investment in ULA due to lower launch volume and launch vehicle mix; and about $20 million due to the renationalization of the AWE program. These decreases were partially offset by an increase of about $35 million for strategic and missile defense programs due to higher volume (primarily hypersonic development programs); and approximately $25 million for national security space programs due to higher risk retirements (primarily SBIRS and classified programs) and higher volume (primarily Next Gen OPIR) that was partially offset by charges of about $80 million on a commercial ground solutions program. Operating profit was comparable for commercial civil space programs as higher risk retirements (primarily space transportation programs) were offset by lower volume (primarily Orion). Adjustments not related to volume, including net profit booking rate adjustments, were $100 million higher in 2021 compared to 2020.

Total equity earnings (primarily ULA) represented approximately $30 million, or 9%, and approximately $65 million, or 6%, of Space's operating profit during the quarter and year ended Dec. 31, 2021, compared to approximately $90 million, or 24%, and approximately $135 million, or 12%, in the quarter and year ended Dec. 31, 2020.

Income Taxes

The company's effective income tax rate was 17.7% and 16.4% in the quarter and year ended Dec. 31, 2021, compared to 18.1% and 16.4% in the quarter and year ended Dec. 31, 2020. The rates for the year ended Dec. 31, 2021, and Dec. 31, 2020, benefited from tax deductions for foreign derived intangible income, the research and development tax credit, dividends paid to the company's defined contribution plans with an employee stock ownership plan feature and tax deductions for employee equity awards. The rate for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2021 was lower than the rate for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2020 primarily due to increased research and development tax credits partially offset by a reduction in the tax deduction for foreign derived intangible income.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This news release contains the following non-generally accepted accounting principles (non-GAAP) financial measures (as defined by U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Regulation G). While management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures may be useful in evaluating the financial performance of the company, this information should be considered supplemental and is not a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the company's definitions for non-GAAP financial measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies or analysts.

Business segment operating profit

Business segment operating profit represents operating profit from the company's business segments before unallocated income and expense. This measure is used by the company's senior management in evaluating the performance of its business segments and is a performance goal in the company's annual incentive plan. Business segment operating margin is calculated by dividing business segment operating profit by sales. The table below reconciles the non-GAAP measure business segment operating profit with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, consolidated operating profit.

The company's current 2022 financial outlook reflects known impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic based on the company's understanding at the time of this news release and its experience to date. However, the company cannot predict how the pandemic will evolve or what impact it will continue to have. Therefore, no additional impacts to the Company's operations or its supply chain as a result of continued disruption from, or policies in response to, COVID-19 for periods subsequent to the time of this news release have been incorporated into the company's current 2022 financial outlook. The ultimate impacts of COVID-19 on the company's financial outlook for 2022 and beyond remain uncertain and there can be no assurance that the company's underlying assumptions are correct.

Reflects the amount by which expected total CAS pension cost of $1.8 billion, exceeds the expected FAS pension service cost of $95 million. Excludes $555 million of expected non-service FAS pension income. Refer to the supplemental table "Other Supplemental Information" included in this news release for a detail of the FAS/CAS operating adjustment.





Net FAS/CAS pension adjustment – adjusted

Net FAS/CAS pension adjustment has been adjusted for the third quarter 2021 noncash, non-operating pension settlement charge of $1.7 billion. Management believes that the exclusion of the pension settlement charge related to the accelerated recognition of actuarial losses previously included in accumulated other comprehensive loss for certain pension plans as a result of the purchase of group annuity contracts from an insurance company, is useful to understanding the company's underlying business performance and comparing performance from period to period.

Free Cash Flow

Free Cash Flow is cash from operations less capital expenditures. The company uses free cash flow to evaluate its business performance and overall liquidity. The company believes free cash flow is a useful measure for investors because it represents the amount of cash generated from operations after reinvesting in the business and that may be available to return to stockholders and creditors (through dividends, stock repurchase and debt repayments) or available to fund acquisitions. The entire free cash flow amount is not necessarily available for discretionary expenditures.

Cash from operations (excluding R&D)

Cash from operations (excluding R&D) is cash from operations excluding the impact of a provision of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 related to research and development costs that went into effect on Jan. 1, 2022. The provision requires that companies capitalize and amortize research and development costs over five years for tax purposes rather than deducting such costs in the year incurred. The company believes this adjusted measure of cash from operations is useful to investors because it allows for a comparison against prior periods of the company's ability to generate cash controlling for the change in tax law, and because the impact of the new tax law will lessen over the course of the five-year amortization period and become immaterial in the sixth year.

Calendar quarters are typically comprised of 13 weeks. However, the company closes its books and records on the last Sunday of each month, except for the month of Dec., as its fiscal year ends on Dec. 31. As a result, the number of weeks in a reporting quarter may vary slightly during the year and for comparable prior year periods.
