RTX reported fourth-quarter 2025 sales of $24.2 billion, up 12 percent from a year earlier, with adjusted earnings per share of $1.55 and free cash flow of $3.2 billion. For the full year, sales reached $88.6 billion, adjusted EPS totaled $6.29, and free cash flow rose to $7.9 billion, reflecting higher operating performance across the business.

 

Fourth-quarter GAAP earnings per share were $1.19, including acquisition accounting adjustments, restructuring costs, and other net significant or non-recurring items. RTX reported net income attributable to common shareowners of $1.6 billion for the quarter, while adjusted net income of $2.1 billion was up 2 percent from the prior year, supported by profit growth across all three segments.

For full-year 2025, RTX said GAAP earnings per share were $4.96, including acquisition accounting adjustments of $1.15 and restructuring costs of $0.14. The company ended the year with a backlog of $268 billion, including $161 billion in commercial and $107 billion in defense orders, and completed the divestiture of Collins’ Simmonds Precision Products business.

 

 

RTX also issued its outlook for 2026, forecasting adjusted sales of $92.0 billion to $93.0 billion, adjusted EPS of $6.60 to $6.80, and free cash flow of $8.25 billion to $8.75 billion. “RTX delivered strong sales, adjusted EPS* and free cash flow* in 2025, enabled by our continued focus on operational performance and execution,” said Chris Calio, adding, “We enter 2026 with great momentum and are well positioned to deliver our 2026 financial outlook.”
