  • This decline was partially offset by an 8 percent ($231 million) growth in its Space Systems segment, driven by increased sales in launch and strategic missiles, keeping it on track for projected double-digit growth for the year.
  • CEO Kathy Warden affirmed full-year guidance, noting strong bookings, backlog growth, and anticipating an easing of the tight labor market in the second half of the year.
