Defense stocks are moving slightly lower Wednesday after Israel and Hamas verbally agreed on a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43011383/israel-gaza-ceasefire-hostage-exchange">ceasefire in Gaza</a>.
What Happened: Hamas accepted a draft agreement on Wednesday for a ceasefire in Gaza that includes the release of several hostages, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43011383/israel-gaza-ceasefire-hostage-exchange">multiple reports</a>. 
The agreement follows months of negotiations and paves the way for a potential end to the ongoing war in the Middle East that began about 15 months ago. The verbal agreement also comes just days before President-elect Donald Trump&#8217;s inauguration. 
&#8220;We have a deal for the hostages in the Middle East. They will be released shortly. Thank you!&#8221; Trump&nbsp;said in a post on Truth Social.
The deal reportedly includes a six-week ceasefire and the release of 33 Israeli hostages in exchange for the release of Palestinian prisoners. Israel still needs to ratify the deal, but a vote is expected by Thursday.

Defense Stocks Fall On Gaza Ceasefire While Broader Market Rallies: What's Going On?

On Monday, Lockheed Martin Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMT#NYSE">LMT</a>) revealed the launch of the seventh Lockheed Martin-designed and built Global Positioning System (GPS) III satellite, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/12/n42522602/seventh-lockheed-martin-built-gps-iii-satellite-launches-supporting-next-gen-constellation-moderni" rel="noreferrer noopener">GPS III SV07, at 7:52 p.m. ET</a>.
The GPS III SV07 spacecraft, built at Lockheed Martin&#8217;s Littleton, Colorado, facility, was transported by ground to its Florida launch site after its usual military aircraft was reassigned for hurricane relief efforts.
The satellite was launched into orbit 12,550 miles above Earth from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.
Carefully planning the 2,337-mile route and tracking Hurricane Milton, the spacecraft completed a six-day journey, avoiding severe weather and arriving for final launch preparations.
The team has successfully completed signal acquisition of GPS III SV07, and the spacecraft is now under operational control at Lockheed Martin&#8217;s Denver Launch &amp; Checkout Operations Center until it is officially accepted into the current 31-satellite operational GPS constellation.
Launched on an accelerated timeline, GPS III SV07 joins the Space Force&#8217;s efforts to modernize the GPS constellation, following the launch of GPS III SV06 in 2023.
Malik Musawwir, vice president of Navigation Systems at Lockheed Martin said, &#8220;We supported our customer&#8217;s vision for an accelerated launch of this GPS satellite, ultimately helping them achieve quick-turn operational readiness.&#8221;
&#8220;Time is of the essence for national security missions, and we quickly delivered this critical capability for the Space Force to support rapid demand for secure, advanced positioning, navigation, and timing signals.&#8221;

3 ETFs With PLTR Exposure To Consider As Nasdaq-100 Rebalance Looms

Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>) shares are trading relatively flat in the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/premarket" rel="noreferrer noopener">premarket session on Wednesday.</a>
The company announced today that it renewed its multi-year enterprise agreement with the mining giant Rio Tinto Plc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIO#NYSE">RIO</a>), extending the partnership <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/11/b41933059/palantir-and-rio-tinto-renew-enterprise-contract-and-extend-access-to-palantirs-ai-platform" rel="noreferrer noopener">for an additional four years</a>.
This agreement ensures Rio Tinto&#8217;s continued access to Palantir&#8217;s Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP), further enhancing the company&#8217;s operational efficiency and AI capabilities.
As an early adopter of Palantir Foundry, Rio Tinto has already built a robust digital twin, or &#8220;Ontology,&#8221; which serves as a unified data model for critical operations.

The Ontology enables Rio Tinto to leverage AIP to rapidly develop, test, and deploy AI-driven solutions, addressing challenges in areas like plant operations, geotechnical risk management, and the coordination of unmanned trains.
&#8220;The Foundry Ontology has made our structured data accessible, and AIP is doing the same for our unstructured data while enabling us to attack with pace problems previously deemed too complex,&#8221;&nbsp;said Bold Bataar, Rio Tinto&#8217;s Chief Commercial Officer.
According to&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro</a>, RIO stock has lost over 6% in the past year. Investors can gain exposure to the stock via&nbsp;VanEck Steel ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SLX#NYSE">SLX</a>) and&nbsp;Gabelli ETFs Trust Gabelli Financial Services Opportunities ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GABF#NYSE">GABF</a>) and VanEck Natural Resources ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HAP#NYSE">HAP</a>).
For instance, in Western Australia&#8217;s Pilbara region, Foundry integrates real-time data from hundreds of systems, allowing operators to optimize the routing of 53 driverless trains transporting iron ore. This has led to improved safety and throughput on the rail network.
Meanwhile, in Mongolia&#8217;s Oyu Tolgoi mine, the Ontology provides dynamic risk management for one of the world&#8217;s most challenging mining environments.
Palantir&#8217;s AIP will enhance Rio Tinto&#8217;s ability to manage complex workflows and accelerate innovation across its operations. Both companies expect the AI platform to drive continued improvements in performance, safety, and decision-making in Rio Tinto&#8217;s high-stakes environments.
Ted Mabrey, Palantir&#8217;s Head of Commercial, highlighted the potential of AIP to address Rio Tinto&#8217;s most pressing challenges, including risk identification and asset management, ensuring safe and efficient AI deployment.
PLTR stock has gained over 200% in the past year. Investors can gain exposure to the stock via REX AI Equity Premium Income ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AIPI#NASDAQ">AIPI</a>) and Global X Funds Global X Defense Tech ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SHLD#NYSE">SHLD</a>).

Palantir Wins Deal Worth Multi-Million Dollars To Expand Maven Smart System Across US Army, Air Force, Space Force & Navy

Lockheed Martin Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMT#NYSE">LMT</a>) and Tata Advanced Systems Limited have signed a teaming agreement to strengthen their partnership through the<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/09/n40786346/lockheed-martin-and-tata-advanced-systems-announce-agreement-to-expand-c-130j-super-hercules-oppor" rel="noreferrer noopener"> C-130J Super Hercules tactical airlifter</a>.
This move boosts India&#8217;s defense and aerospace capabilities while deepening India-U.S. strategic relations.
This agreement outlines plans to establish an MRO facility in India to support the Indian Air Force&#8217;s 12 C-130Js and other global Super Hercules fleets.
It also includes expanding C-130J manufacturing and assembly in India for the Indian Air Force&#8217;s (IAF) Medium Transport Aircraft (MTA) program, pending U.S. and Indian government approvals.
Lockheed Martin will maintain C-130J production for the U.S. government and global operators at its existing Marietta, Georgia facility.
The additional production and assembly capacity will be established in India if Lockheed Martin is awarded the MTA contract.
The IAF is seeking up to 80 medium transport aircraft and issued an RFI last year. Lockheed Martin responded with the C-130J-30 Super Hercules, which it believes fits the requirements.
Sukaran Singh, chief executive officer and managing director of Tata Advanced Systems, said, &#8220;The current announcement is also significant as it marks the entry of Tata Advanced Systems into the defence MRO space in&nbsp;India&nbsp;for large aircraft platforms. This also helps towards a deeper relationship between the two companies, adding to the aerostructure work by Tata Advanced Systems for Lockheed Martin platforms.&#8221;
Rod McLean, vice president and general manager of the Air Mobility and Maritime Missions line of business at Lockheed Martin, said, &#8220;The C-130J is known as the world&#8217;s workhorse, not just for its large global presence, but also for its international supply chain partners including the single source provider of empennages — Tata Lockheed Martin Aerostructures Limited in&nbsp;Hyderabad.&#8221;
&#8220;This teaming agreement between Lockheed Martin and Tata Advanced Systems further demonstrates Lockheed Martin&#8217;s commitment to a self-reliant&nbsp;India&nbsp;and the degree of confidence that exists in our relationships with our partners in&nbsp;India&nbsp;and the Indian industry at large.&#8221;
In August, Lockheed resumed deliveries of the F-35 jets to the U.S. military after a months-long pause, but the U.S. government is withholding the final $5 million payment per jet until a long-delayed technology upgrade, known as Technology <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/08/40652646/lockheed-martin-resumes-delivery-of-f-35-jets-but-us-government-to-withhold-some-payment-putting-pro" rel="noreferrer noopener">Refresh 3 (TR-3),&nbsp;is fully implemented</a>.

Parsons Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PSN#NYSE">PSN</a>) shares are trading higher on Monday after the company won a three-year contract worth $68.5 million <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/09/g40769132/parsons-supports-u-s-indo-pacific-defense-with-68-5-million-u-s-army-infrastructure-contract" rel="noreferrer noopener">from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Honolulu District.</a>
As per the contract, Parsons will build new army housing units on-island, its second such contract in under a year.
The contract involves the design-bid-build delivery of new U.S. Army housing units in the Kwajalein Atoll, Republic of the Marshall Islands, marking new work for the company.
Parsons was also chosen by the USACE Honolulu District for its Pre-Qualified Source Listing (PQSL), which qualifies the company to receive future large task orders valued at $50 million or more within the district&#8217;s jurisdiction.
In October 2023, the company also secured a $44 million contract for army housing as part of the Department of the Army&#8217;s modernization efforts.
Jon Moretta, President, Engineered Systems for Parsons, said, &#8220;This award expands our work in the Kwajalein Atoll, a uniquely complex environment for infrastructure due to the logistical challenges of servicing the remote location as well as the highly corrosive and humid environment.&#8221;
Last month, Parsons was selected as the lead engineer for the $4.6 billion State Route 400 Express Lanes Major Mobility Investment Program by the Georgia Department of Transportation and the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/08/g40571266/parsons-selected-as-lead-engineer-to-add-express-toll-lanes-to-state-route-400-in-georgia" rel="noreferrer noopener">Georgia State Road and Tollway Authority</a>.

Parsons Shares Soar On Grabbing $68.5M Army Housing Contract

Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>) shares are trading higher premarket Friday.
Sompo, a subsidiary of the company responsible for the insurance and reinsurance operations of Sompo Holdings outside of Japan, has formed a partnership with&nbsp;Palantir for AI solutions.
The contract extends Palantir&#8217;s partnership with Sompo Holdings in Japan, enabling the use of Palantir Foundry and the Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP) to enhance decision-making in pricing, underwriting, and risk management.

Marine Insurance, a segment in which Sompo has held a prominent position in Brazil since 2017, is the first area where the software has already been integrated as a solution in the pricing processes.
Eduardo Esteve, VP of Latin America, Palantir Technologies stated, &#8220;This important agreement with Sompo is Palantir&#8217;s first partnership in the Brazilian insurance sector and reflects our consistent investment and growing local presence in the country.&#8221;
&#8220;Our AI operating system now powers many of Brazil&#8217;s most important organizations, from government public health and education agencies to companies in the retail and tourism sectors.&#8221;

This integration aims to deliver efficiency gains and faster response times for Sompo&#8217;s customers and partners. The focus is on leveraging Data Analytics and AI to create intelligent systems that enhance pricing accuracy and operational efficiency, benefiting both insurers and customers.
Rodrigo Caramez, Sompo&#8217;s Chief Strategy Officer, said, &#8220;Historically, the search for efficiency involved automating simple, repetitive, and high-volume processes. This still applies, but with the new technological frontier applied to the use of data and AI, and the availability of simpler tools with natural language, we can expand this search for efficiency to the organization&#8217;s highly specialized core processes.&#8221;

What's Going On With Palantir Technologies Shares Premarket Friday?

RTX Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RTX#NYSE">RTX</a>) has developed an air-to-air missile that could give the U.S. an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38632421/chinas-growing-missile-arsenal-is-putting-us-officials-on-edge">upper hand against China</a>.
The AIM-174B, which has the longest range of any U.S. missile and is a further development of the Raytheon SM-6 air defense missile, can reach targets as far away as 250 miles, Reuters reported.
The new missile exceeds the striking distance of the AIM-120 AMRAAM missile, which is also made by RTX, by 157 miles and can therefore outrange China&#8217;s PL-15 missile and allow U.S. jets to stay closer to aircraft carriers that they are protecting.

The AIM-174B, which the U.S. has been deployed to the Indo-Pacific region and was officially acknowledged in July, does not require new production lines and is compatible with the aircraft of U.S. ally Australia.
&#8220;The United States can ensure the safety of their important assets, such as carrier groups, and launch long-range strikes on PLA targets,&#8221; Chieh Chung, a researcher at Taipei-based thinktank Association of Strategic Foresight, told Reuters. 
PLA stands for People&#8217;s Liberation Army.
Almost three weeks ago, RTX reported second-quarter results that beat analyst expectations. 
The company posted $19.791 billion in revenue for the three-month period to exceed analyst consensus of $19.28 billion. Adjusted EPS grew 9% to $1.41, beating consensus of $1.30.

General Dynamics Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GD#NYSE">GD</a>) received a $1.3 billion contract modification from the U.S. Department of Defense, allowing&nbsp;the business unit&nbsp;Electric Boat to acquire long lead-time materials for Virginia Class Block VI submarines, as detailed in the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/40174825" rel="noreferrer noopener">U.S. Department of Defense&nbsp;contract award.</a>
Virginia-class submarines are built to meet a broad spectrum of 21st-century mission needs, including anti-submarine warfare, surface ship engagement, and special operations support.
General Dynamics Electric Boat, as the prime contractor and lead design yard, works in collaboration with HII&#8217;s Newport News Shipbuilding to construct these submarines.
Kevin Graney, president of General Dynamics Electric Boat, said, &#8220;This contract modification sends a crucial demand signal, enabling our suppliers to invest in the capacity and materials needed to increase production volume.&#8221;
&#8220;Consistent funding for the supply base is essential to achieve the high-rate production the Navy requires of the entire submarine enterprise.&#8221;
Last week, General Dynamics announced that&nbsp;Kevin Graney, who currently serves as president of Electric Boat, informed that he will retire at the end of the year. He will be succeeded by&nbsp;Mark Rayha, who currently serves as senior vice president and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/40103685" rel="noreferrer noopener">chief operating officer of Electric Boat, effective&nbsp;December 1.</a>
Last month, General Dynamics reported a second-quarter revenue increase of&nbsp;18%&nbsp;Y/Y to&nbsp;$11.976 billion, beating the consensus of&nbsp;$11.438 billion. EPS of&nbsp;$3.26&nbsp;(up&nbsp;20.7%&nbsp;YoY)&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/39934099" rel="noreferrer noopener">missed the consensus of&nbsp;$3.29</a>.
The company-wide backlog stood at&nbsp;$91.3 billion, with an estimated potential contract value of&nbsp;$38.5 billion.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Is PLTR A Good Stock To Buy?</h2>
Wall Street analysts view Palantir Technologies on the whole as a Neutral, given the history of coverage over the past three months. Rishi Jaluria from RBC Capital in Palantir Technologies is the most optimistic, expecting a 80.0% rise in the stock in the coming year.

In the past 3 months, Palantir Technologies rose 33.84%, which indicates that opinion improved on the business and how attractive it is to own based on either its stock price, or underlying fundamentals, like revenue, which rose 20.78% over the past year.

What's Going On With Palantir Technologies Shares Today?

Lockheed Martin Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMT#NYSE">LMT</a>) shares are trading higher today. The Pentagon will reportedly resume accepting <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/insights/short-sellers/24/07/39699120/how-is-the-market-feeling-about-lockheed-martin">new F-35s next week</a>.
As per a report issued Wednesday, the service plans to select the builder of its next fighter jet later this year.
Gen. Kenneth Wilsbach, the head of Air Combat Command, said during an event on Wednesday, &#8220;Right now we&#8217;re very much focused on the TR-3 upgrade, software upgrade, to the [F-35] jet. And as you know, Lockheed Martin had some issues with stability of that software package.&#8221;
&#8220;So we&#8217;ve held up signing the jets over to the Air Force for the last&nbsp;few months. And so we&#8217;re very much focused on unwinding that hold up. And I&#8217;m hopeful that those jets will start to be delivered this month,&#8221;&nbsp;
Notably, in July last year, the government halted acceptance of new F-35s due to issues related to Technology Refresh-3, or TR-3.

Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>) has been likened to the Argentine professional footballer Lionel Messi of the artificial intelligence world by a prominent analyst. 
What Happened: Dan Ives, the managing director at Wedbush, made the comparison in an <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/news/palantir-messi-ai-dan-ives-170138156.html">interview</a> with Yahoo Finance on Friday. He described Palantir as the &#8220;Messi of AI &#8230; probably the most underestimated AI play, maybe tech play, in the market today.&#8221;

수요일에 이스라엘과 하마스가 가자에서의 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43011383/israel-gaza-ceasefire-hostage-exchange">휴전</a>에 대해 구두 합의한 후 방산 주식들이 약간 하락했다.
무슨 일이 있었나: 하마스는 수요일에 여러 인질 석방이 포함된 가자에서의 휴전 초안에 대해 수용했다고 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43011383/israel-gaza-ceasefire-hostage-exchange">다수의 보도</a>가 전했다.
이 합의는 몇 달 간의 협상 후에 이루어진 것이며, 약 15개월 전에 시작된 중동에서의 전쟁을 잠재적으로 끝낼 수 있는 길을 열어준다. 이 구두 합의는 또한 도널드 트럼프 대통령 당선인의 취임을 불과 며칠 앞두고 이루어졌다.
트럼프는 진실 소셜에 &#8220;우리는 중동의 인질들에 대한 거래를 가지고 있다. 그들은 곧 석방될 것이다. 감사하다!&#8221;라고 게시했다.
이 거래에는 6주간의 휴전과 33명의 이스라엘 인질 석방이 포함되며, 대가로 팔레스타인 수감자들의 석방이 요구된다. 이스라엘은 여전히 이 거래를 비준해야 하지만, 목요일까지 투표가 예상된다.

PLTR 주식에 대한 확고한 노출을 가진 세 가지 ETF를 소개한다. 우리는 투자자들이 고려할 수 있는 적절한 노출과 좋은 유동성을 제공할 수 있는 ETF를 선택했다.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">REX AI Equity Premium Income ETF(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AIPI#NASDAQ">AIPI</a>)</h3>
AIPI 포트폴리오는 PLTR 주식에 9.46% 노출되어 있으며, 이는 팔란티어에 대한 924만 달러의 포지션으로 환산된다. 이 ETF는 로봇공학과 인공지능(AI)에 중점을 두고 있으며, 이는 팔란티어의 기술 주도 솔루션과 잘 맞아떨어진다.
상당한 노출로 인해 AIPI는 팔란티어의 성장 잠재력에 대한 강력한 베팅을 제공한다. ETF의 25.38억 달러 AUM(운용 자산)으로 인해 적절한 유동성을 보장한다.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Global X Defense Tech ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SHLD#NYSE">SHLD</a>)</h3>
SHLD 포트폴리오는 PLTR 주식에 7.82% 노출되어 있어, 다양한 방산 기술 ETF를 찾는 투자자들에게 적절한 비율이다. 이 ETF는 팔란티어의 방산 및 정보 분야의 존재와 항공우주 및 방산의 기타 주요 플레이어들을 결합한다.
430.87백만 달러의 AUM을 보유한 이 펀드는 유동성을 잘 유지하면서 투자자들에게 안정적인 팔란티어 주식의 일부를 제공한다.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">ARK Innovation ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKK#NYSE">ARKK</a>)</h3>
팔란티어는 ARKK에서도 두각을 나타내며, 포트폴리오의 거의 5%를 PLTR 주식에 할당했다. 2억 7,300만 달러 이상이 팔란티어 주식에 투자된 653만 주를 보유하고 있는 ARKK는 혁신 분야에서 강한 위력을 발휘하며 고성장 기업을 지원하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이 펀드는 60억 달러 이상의 AUM을 보유하여 투자 유동성을 보장한다.
팔란티어에 대한 노출은 기술 중심의 포트폴리오에 적절히 맞아떨어지며, 이 ETF의 규모와 유동성은 팔란티어의 미래 잠재력에 투자하려는 투자자들에게 여전히 유효한 옵션이 된다.
팔란티어가 나스닥 상장과 나스닥-100 편입 가능성에 가까워짐에 따라, 이러한 ETF들은 투자자들에게 회사에 대한 노출을 얻을 수 있는 기회를 제공한다.
상당한 PLTR 주식 노출과 강력한 유동성을 가진 이 펀드들은 팔란티어의 잠재적 성장에 투자하려는 이들에게 스마트한 선택이 될 수 있다.

방산업체인 RTX 코퍼레이션(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RTX#NYSE">RTX</a>)은 미국이 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38632421/chinas-growing-missile-arsenal-is-putting-us-officials-on-edge" target="_blank" rel="noopener">중국에 대해 우위</a>를 점할 수 있는 공대공 미사일을 개발했다.
AIM-174B는 미국 미사일 중 가장 긴 사거리를 갖고 있으며 레이시온(Raytheon) SM-6 대공 미사일의 추가 개발품으로 최대 250마일 떨어진 목표물에 도달할 수 있다고 로이터가 보도했다.
이 새로운 미사일은 RTX가 제작한 AIM-120 AMRAAM 미사일의 타격 거리를 157마일 초과하므로 중국의 PL-15 미사일보다 더 먼 거리를 확보할 수 있으며 미국 제트기가 보호하는 항공모함에 더 가까이 머물 수 있게 해준다.

미국이 인도태평양 지역에 배치해 지난 7월 공식 인정한 AIM-174B는 신규 생산라인이 필요 없고 미국 동맹국인 호주의 항공기와 호환된다.
타이페이 소재 싱크탱크 전략예측협회(Association of Strategic Foresight)의 치에 청(Chieh Chung) 연구원은 &#8220;미국은 항공모함 그룹과 같은 중요한 자산의 안전을 보장하고 PLA 목표물에 대한 장거리 공격을 개시할 수 있다&#8221;라고 로이터에 말했다.
PLA는 중국 인민해방군의 약자이다.
거의 3주 전, RTX는 분석가의 예상을 뛰어넘는 2분기 실적 결과를 발표했다.
이 회사는 3개월 동안 197억 9,100만 달러의 매출을 기록하여 분석가 합의 192억 8,000만 달러를 초과했다. 조정 EPS는 9% 증가한 1.41달러로 컨센서스인 1.30달러를 넘어섰다.
주가 움직임: 수요일 애프터마켓에서 RTX는 0.16% 상승한 117.84달러에 거래되었다.
