Bulls say

Lockheed Martin is projected to experience a positive trajectory in operational margins, with expectations of expansion by approximately 10-20 basis points annually, potentially reaching 11% by 2027. The company reported a 0.6% year-over-year increase in segment revenue for 2023, equating to $16.2 billion, and significant growth in F-35 sustainment revenue, anticipated to rise at a 10% compound annual growth rate through 2030. Furthermore, enhanced defense spending in Europe and opportunities from key missile programs are anticipated to further bolster the company's revenue, establishing a solid foundation for sustained growth in the coming years.

Bears say

The analysis of Lockheed Martin's financial outlook reveals a concerning trend, with after-tax earnings per share projected to decline from a high of $5.81 in 2021 to approximately $4.75 in 2024. Additionally, the defense sector has experienced a significant downturn, with a 19.2% decline since mid-November 2024, accompanied by a compression in the sector's price-to-earnings multiple to 0.82x, which is below its historical average. Operating margins have also deteriorated from 11% in 2019 to 9.5% in 2024, influenced by inflationary pressures and other operational challenges that are likely to dampen overall revenue growth expectations.
