President-elect Donald Trump has spent the week following <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41768178/donald-trump-defeats-kamala-harris-to-win-2024-election">his election win</a> penciling in cabinet picks. His choice for Defense Secretary, Pete Hegseth, is raising eyebrows. 
The Pick: Hegseth was a co-host on Fox Corp&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FOXA#NASDAQ">FOXA</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FOX#NASDAQ">FOX</a>) &#8220;Fox &amp; Friends,&#8221; Trump&#8217;s favorite television show. 
The Minnesota native, an Iraq and Afghanistan War veteran, has never held a government position. Hegseth has been a strong supporter of Trump since 2016.
<a href="https://apnews.com/article/trump-hegseth-defense-secretary-pentagon-2d8030921ecef933778cf92afd40ec72">According</a> to the Associated Press, Trump encouraged his supporters to buy Hegseth's book in June and said that if he won the election, "The woke stuff will be gone within a period of 24 hours. I can tell you."
Hegseth supports removing women from combat roles in the military, <a href="https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/pete-hegseth-defense-secretary-trump-women-military-b2646325.html">according</a> to The Independent. 
Why it Matters: Trump&#8217;s selection of Hegseth surprised many Wall Street observers, <a href="https://www.barrons.com/amp/articles/trump-defense-secretary-pete-hegseth-stocks-d9af9d58">according</a> to Barron&#8217;s. The television host was not on the radar of research analysts.
Trump announced plans Tuesday to appoint Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy to form the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/24/11/41931503/trump-forms-doge-with-elon-musk-and-vivek-ramaswamy-at-the-helm-will-it-impact-tesla-ceos-role-at-the-ev-giant-and-spacex">&#8220;Department of Government Efficiency,&#8221;</a> aimed to &#8220;cut wasteful expenditures.&#8221; 
The sprawling U.S. military complex, which now <a href="https://fiscaldata.treasury.gov/americas-finance-guide/federal-spending/">comprises</a> 13% of the federal budget at nearly $1 trillion, has been unable to pass an independent audit for the last six years, <a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/us/pentagon-fails-audit-sixth-year-row-2023-11-16/">according</a> to Reuters.
Wall Street is apparently not worried that Musk and Ramaswamy will gut military spending to federal contractors. The iShares US Aerospace &amp; Defense ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ITA#BATS">ITA</a>) has risen over 7% since Trump&#8217;s election win. General Dynamics Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GD#NYSE">GD</a>), Lockheed Martin Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMT#NYSE">LMT</a>) and Rtx Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RTX#NYSE">RTX</a>) have posted gains in that period.
What&#8217;s Next: Several Democratic Party politicians <a href="https://x.com/SenWarren/status/1856502912551158049">including</a> Senator Elizabeth Warren voiced disapproval of Trump&#8217;s pick, citing Hegseth&#8217;s lack of experience. The &#8220;Fox &amp; Friends&#8221; anchor will face a confirmation hearing in the Senate following Trump&#8217;s inauguration.

Trump's Surprise Defense Secretary Pick Pete Hegseth Jolts Wall Street

<a href="https://www.cnn.com/2024/11/08/politics/biden-administration-american-military-contractors-deploy-ukraine/index.html">https://www.cnn.com/2024/11/08/politics/biden-administration-american-military-contractors-deploy-ukraine/index.html</a>
&nbsp;
The Biden administration has lifted a de facto ban on American military contractors deploying to <a href="https://www.cnn.com/world/europe/ukraine">Ukraine</a> to help the country's military maintain and repair US-provided weapons systems, particularly F16 fighter jets and Patriot air defense systems, an official with direct knowledge of the plan told CNN.
The new policy, approved earlier this month before the election, would allow the Pentagon to provide contracts to American companies for work inside Ukraine for the first time since <a href="https://www.cnn.com/world/europe/russia">Russia</a> invaded in 2022. Officials said they hope it will speed up the maintenance and repairs of weapons systems being used by the Ukrainian military.
It is not clear whether Donald Trump will keep the policy in place when he takes office in January. Trump has said he hopes to end the war between Ukraine and Russia "within 24 hours" of returning to power.
"In order to help Ukraine repair and maintain military equipment provided by the US and its allies, DoD (Department of Defense) is soliciting bids for a small number of contractors who will help Ukraine maintain the assistance we've already provided," a defense official said.
"These contractors will be located far from the front lines and they will not be fighting Russian forces. They will help Ukrainian Armed Forces rapidly repair and maintain US provided equipment as needed so it can be quickly returned to the front lines."
The defense official confirmed that the US is moving forward with the plan because several of the systems the US has provided Ukraine, particularly F-16s and Patriots, "require specific technical expertise to maintain."
The shift marks another significant change <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2024/06/20/politics/ukraine-us-air-defense-capabilities/index.html">in the Biden administration's Ukraine policy</a>, as the US looks for ways to give Ukraine's military an upper hand against Russia. The Pentagon is expected to start listing the contracts online soon, the official said.
Over the last two years, Biden has insisted that all Americans, and particularly US troops, stay far away from the Ukrainian frontlines. The White House has been determined to limit both the danger to Americans and the perception, particularly by Russia, that the US military is engaged in combat there. The State Department has explicitly warned Americans against traveling to Ukraine since 2022.
As a result, US-provided military equipment that has sustained significant damage in combat has had to be transported out of the country to Poland, Romania, or other NATO countries for repairs, a process which takes time. US troops have also been available to help the Ukrainians with more routine maintenance and logistics, but only from afar via video chat or secure phone—an arrangement that has come with inherent limitations, since US troops and contractors are not able to work directly on the systems.
Allowing experienced, US government-funded American contractors to maintain a presence in Ukraine means they will be able to help fix damaged, high-value equipment much faster, officials have told CNN. One advanced system that officials say will likely require regular maintenance is the F-16 fighter jet, which Ukraine received earlier this year.
Companies bidding for the contracts would be required to develop robust risk mitigation plans to reduce threats to their employees, officials told CNN.
"The Department made this decision after careful risk assessment and in coordination with interagency stakeholders," the defense official said. "Each US contractor, organization or company will be responsible for the safety and security of their employees and will be required to include risk mitigation plans as part of their bids."
Current and former officials familiar said the policy change will not result in the kind of major American contractor presence that existed in Iraq and Afghanistan. Instead, it would likely result in anywhere from a few dozen to a couple hundred contractors working in Ukraine at a time.
"It is worth noting that there already are a wide array of American companies who have personnel in Ukraine fulfilling contracts for the Ukrainian government, so this will not lead to a substantial increase of employees of US companies working on the ground in Ukraine," the defense official said.

Pentagon Lifts Ban On U.S. Defense Contractors In Ukraine To Repair US-Supplied Weaponry

Invesco has unveiled a new series of thematic exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that focus on artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, and defense sectors. These funds aim to leverage emerging trends within these industries.
What Happened: The newly introduced ETFs, named Invesco Artificial Intelligence Enablers, Cybersecurity, and Defence Innovation Ucits, are based on benchmarks crafted by Kensho, a division of S&amp;P Global Indices. Kensho utilizes natural language processing to pinpoint companies with significant involvement in each theme, categorizing them into &#8220;core&#8221; and &#8220;non-core&#8221; groups, Financial Times<a href="https://www.ft.com/content/476d3e81-cbd2-4484-8fb5-4a074dcaa97c"> reported</a> on Thursday.
As per Invesco, core companies generate a substantial portion of their revenue from products and services aligned with these themes, while non-core companies provide essential inputs without focusing on end products. The AI enablers strategy targets firms advancing AI technology and infrastructure, whereas the cybersecurity ETF invests in companies protecting enterprises from unauthorized electronic access. The defense fund provides exposure to companies developing advanced weapons and defensive systems

Shares of aerospace and defense companies are trading higher after Donald Trump won the 2024 presidential election.

Election Day is here. A win for Republican Donald Trump or Democrat Kamala Harris could <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/11/41750069/80-million-votes-cast-in-early-voting-mail-in-voting-before-election-day-over-50-of-2020-electio">move different market sectors</a>.

Trump Media &amp; Technology Group Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DJT#NASDAQ">DJT</a>) shares are climbing on heavy trading volume on the final day of voting. The stock soared 270% from its September lows as investors speculate on a potential Trump victory. Matthew Tuttle, CEO of investment fund Tuttle Capital Management, has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41608242/trump-media-technology-stock-soars-after-msg-rally-will-the-gains-hold">called the stock</a> "a binary bet on the election."

XOM, FSLR: Investors are watching Exxon Mobil Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XOM#NYSE">XOM</a>) stock as traditional energy companies <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/11/41724383/wall-street-struggles-ahead-of-election-day-energy-sector-outperforms-solar-stocks-rise-whats-dr">could gain </a>from favorable oil and gas policies under a Trump administration. It&#8217;s worth noting that the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/23/10/35240230/us-is-producing-more-oil-under-biden-than-at-any-point-under-the-trump-administration">U.S. produced more oil</a> under the Biden administration than at any point under the Trump administration. Conversely, solar energy companies like First Solar, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FSLR#NASDAQ">FSLR</a>) are on watch as they could benefit from Harris' support of renewable energy policies and climate initiatives. 
RTX: Wall Street analysts are generally bullish on defense stocks in the event of a Trump victory putting shares of RTX (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RTX#NYSE">RTX</a>) under watch as the polls close.  RTX, formerly Raytheon Technologies, is one of the &#8220;Big Five&#8221; defense contractors which are likely to benefit from increased <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41332235/why-raytheon-parent-rtx-stock-is-up">defense spending</a>. General Dynamics Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GD#NYSE">GD</a>) and Palantir Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>) are other defense contractors stocks to watch. 
LEN: Homebuilders' stocks such as Lennar Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LEN#NYSE">LEN</a>) could gain from Harris&#8217; plans to promote homeownership if elected. One Harris proposal includes providing up to $25,000 in down payment assistance for first-time homebuyers who have paid their rent on time for two years. Other home builders to watch include D.R. Horton, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DHI#NYSE">DHI</a>) and KB Home (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KBH#NYSE">KBH</a>).

<h2>Earnings Whisper for LMT</h2>
Our proven model predicts an earnings beat for Lockheed this time around. The combination of a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) increases the chances of an earnings beat, which is the case here.
Lockheed has a Zacks Rank #3 and an Earnings ESP of +2.46%.
<h2>Factors Shaping LMT&#39;s Upcoming Q3 Results</h2>
A potential solid sales improvement from each of LMT&#39;s four business segments is likely to have bolstered the company&#39;s top-line performance.
Aeronautics to Post Solid Sales
The Aeronautics segment, which primarily manufactures advanced, combat-proven jets, and contributes almost 40% to the company&#39;s top line, is likely to deliver impressive third-quarter results.
A ramp-up in the production of the F-16 program, along with higher sales volume from production and sustainment contracts for the F-35 program, is likely to have bolstered this segment&#39;s top line.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the Aeronautics unit&#39;s third-quarter revenues is pegged at $6,764.8 million, indicating a 0.7% rise from the prior-year period&#39;s reported figure.
Impressive Projections From Other Segments
The remaining three segments are also projected to have performed favorably in the to-be-reported quarter.
Higher sales volume from the hypersonic development programs, along with Fleet Ballistic Missile (FBM), transport layer and other space exploration programs must have boosted the Space segment&#39;s top line. &nbsp;
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the segment&#39;s revenues is pinned at $3,174 million, indicating a 2.3% improvement from the prior-year quarter&#39;s reported number.
LMT&#39;s Missiles and Fire Control (&quot;MFC&quot;) segment provides critical missile defense support to the United States and foreign allies. A higher sales volume, resulting from the production ramp-up of the Guided Multiple Launch Rocket Systems and Long Range Anti-Ship Missile programs, is likely to have benefited this unit&#39;s quarterly sales performance.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for MFC&#39;s third-quarter revenues is currently pegged at $3,116.7 million, indicating 6% growth from the top line recorded a year ago.
Higher sales volume from the Sikorsky unit, particularly driven by CH-53K and Blackhawk helicopters, is likely to have bolstered the Rotary and Mission Systems (&quot;RMS&quot;) segment&#39;s sales in the quarter under review.
The solid production ramp-up of this unit&#39;s laser systems portfolio and higher sales volume of radar might have also contributed favorably to RMS&#39; third-quarter top line.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the unit&#39;s revenues is currently pegged at $4,203.1 million, indicating a 2% improvement from the top line registered a year ago.
<h2>Outlook for LMT&#39;s Q3 Bottom-Line</h2>
Higher interest expenses remain a headwind for the majority of U.S. companies, with Lockheed being no exception. With the Federal Reserve having cut the nation&#39;s interest rate in the second half of September, notable interest expenses can be expected to have weighed on LMT&#39;s third-quarter earnings.
Our model estimate for third-quarter interest expenses is $249.8 million, reflecting a solid 5.4% increase year over year. &nbsp;
During the first quarter of 2024, LMT recognized a reach-forward loss of $100 million associated with a classified missile program at its MFC unit. This, in turn, adversely impacted this unit&#39;s operating profit in the second quarter as well. With a potential loss of $350 million associated with this program, LMT might have also incurred a notable loss in its MFC unit in the third quarter. This, in turn, is likely to have adversely impacted its margin performance and, thereby, bottom-line growth.
Also, the unfavorable cost pressure faced by its Sikorsky business might have had affected LMT&#39;s overall earnings performance in the third quarter, outweighing the favorable impacts of solid top-line growth.
<h2>Price Performance &amp; Valuation</h2>
Lockheed&#39;s shares have exhibited an upward trend, gaining a notable percentage over the year-to-date period. Specifically, the stock has risen 33.5% year to date, outperforming the Zacks aerospace-defense industry&#39;s decline of 7.3%.
YTD Performance

As evident from the image, other notable stocks from the same industry have also rallied year to date and comfortably outpaced the industry&#39;s performance. Shares of L3Harris Technologies (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/lhx#NYSE">LHX</a>), General Dynamics (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/gd#NYSE">GD</a>) and Textron (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/txt#NYSE">TXT</a>) have rallied 16.5%, 15.6% and 9.3%, respectively. &nbsp;
From a valuation perspective, LMT is trading at a premium when compared to its industry. Currently, LMT is trading at 21.39X forward 12-month earnings, which is higher than the industry&#39;s forward earnings multiple of 19.29. Also, its five-year median is 15.82X. So, the company&#39;s valuation also looks stretched compared with its own range.
LMT&#39;s Price-to-Earnings (forward 12 Months)

<h2>Investment Thesis</h2>
Widespread hostilities engulfing the global defense map in recent times have prompted nations worldwide to ramp up their defense arsenal significantly. This has been acting as a solid growth catalyst for defense contractors like Lockheed in the form of solid contract wins. We may thus expect LMT&#39;s third-quarter results to duly reflect this in terms of notable revenue growth.
Backed by its solid top-line prospects, the company has been offering notable rewards to its shareholders. Impressively, LMT&#39;s dividend yield of 2.08% outpaces that of the S&amp;P 500 (1.22%).
However, persistently high interest expenses remain a major headwind for the company&#39;s near-term bottom-line growth. These might have also contributed to LMT&#39;s elevated leverage, as evident from its long-term debt-to-capital ratio, which came in quite higher than that of its peer group.

<h2>Should You Buy LMT Stock Before Q3 Earnings Release?</h2>
Lockheed is less likely to disappoint with its third-quarter results, considering the recent upward revision in its earnings estimates, favorable Zacks Rank and a positive Earnings ESP. However, considering its premium valuation and elevated leverage, investors interested in this stock should wait until next Tuesday.
