Despite the revenue dip, income from continuing operations and earnings per diluted share saw modest increases, indicating improved profitability and operational efficiency. A significant strategic shift is underway with the completed divestiture of the Harris CapRock Communications commercial business and the pending sale of its government IT services business, both reported as discontinued operations. These divestitures are part of a strategy to sharpen focus on core franchises where technology is a key differentiator. The company also continued its share repurchase program and maintained its quarterly cash dividend, signaling confidence in its financial health and commitment to returning value to shareholders.

Feb 3, 2017L3Harris Technologies, Inc. (LHX) reported its financial results for the quarter and year-to-date period ending December 30, 2016. For the quarter, revenue was $1.70 billion, a decrease from $1.75 billion in the prior year's comparable quarter. Income from continuing operations was $168 million, down from $197 million year-over-year, resulting in diluted earnings per share of $1.33, a decrease from $1.58. The company continues to execute on its divestiture strategy, having completed the sale of its CapRock Communications commercial business in January 2017, shortly after the reporting period. This strategic move is part of a broader effort to streamline operations and focus on core businesses. For the two quarters ended December 30, 2016, revenue was $3.38 billion, a slight decrease from $3.46 billion in the prior year. Income from continuing operations stood at $324 million, down from $343 million, with diluted earnings per share of $2.57, compared to $2.75 in the prior year. The company generated $295 million in cash from operations during the first two quarters of fiscal 2017, a decrease from $387 million in the comparable period of fiscal 2016, impacted by lower collections of accounts receivable.

Nov 2, 2016Harris Corporation's Form 10-Q filing for the quarter ended September 29, 2016, reveals a mixed financial performance. While revenue saw a slight year-over-year decrease of 3% to $1.75 billion, net income experienced an 8% increase, reaching $160 million. This improvement in profitability, reflected in a diluted EPS of $1.27, up from $1.18 in the prior year's quarter, was driven by improved gross margins across several segments, effective cost management, and a favorable tax rate. The company also continued its commitment to shareholder returns through a dividend increase and a significant share repurchase program. Despite the overall increase in profitability, the company faced revenue declines in its Communication Systems, Electronic Systems, and Critical Networks segments. These decreases were partially offset by growth in Space and Intelligence Systems. Notably, cash flow from operations declined significantly, primarily due to working capital changes and increased investment activities, leading to a substantial decrease in the company's cash and cash equivalents. The company highlighted ongoing integration efforts following the Exelis acquisition and proactive debt management, including debt repayments.
L3HARRIS TECHNOLOGIES, INC. /DE/ Quarterly Report for Q1 Ended Apr 1, 2016
May 4, 2016L3Harris Technologies (formerly Harris Corporation) reported its fiscal third-quarter 2016 results, demonstrating significant growth primarily driven by the acquisition of Exelis in the prior year. Revenue surged by 60.8% year-over-year to $1.9 billion, reflecting the consolidated performance of the acquired entity across all segments. Despite the revenue increase, the company faced challenges, notably a $367 million non-cash impairment charge related to goodwill and other assets in the Critical Networks segment, impacting net income. However, income from continuing operations before income taxes showed a healthy increase of 34.6%. Diluted EPS from continuing operations also saw an increase, though it was significantly impacted by the impairment charge over the year-to-date period. The company continues to manage its capital effectively, with a strong operating cash flow and an available revolving credit facility, while also returning capital to shareholders through dividends.
L3HARRIS TECHNOLOGIES, INC. /DE/ Quarterly Report for Q3 Ended Jan 1, 2016
Feb 3, 2016L3Harris Technologies, Inc. (LHX) reported a significant shift in its financial performance for the second quarter ended January 1, 2016, compared to the prior year. The company incurred a substantial net loss of $152 million, or $1.23 per diluted share, a stark contrast to the net income of $139 million, or $1.32 per diluted share, reported in the same period last year. This downturn was largely driven by a significant non-cash impairment charge of $367 million related to goodwill and other assets in its Critical Networks segment, attributed to a downturn in the energy market impacting customer operations. Despite the substantial loss in the current quarter, the company experienced robust revenue growth of 52.8% year-over-year, reaching $1.843 billion. This growth was primarily fueled by the inclusion of Exelis operations, acquired in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015. However, the integration of Exelis and ongoing market pressures presented challenges, as reflected in increased engineering, selling, and administrative expenses and a lower gross margin percentage. Net cash provided by operating activities saw a healthy increase, indicating operational cash generation strength despite the reported loss.
L3HARRIS TECHNOLOGIES, INC. /DE/ Quarterly Report for Q3 Ended Oct 2, 2015
Nov 6, 2015L3Harris Technologies, Inc. (formerly Harris Corporation) reported a significant increase in revenue for the quarter ended October 2, 2015, reaching $1.811 billion, a 56.8% jump from $1.155 billion in the prior year's comparable quarter. This substantial growth was primarily driven by the acquisition of Exelis Inc. in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2015, which integrated Exelis's operations into Harris's financial results. Net income also saw a healthy increase of 18.4% to $148 million, though diluted earnings per share remained flat at $1.18, reflecting the increased share count post-acquisition. Despite the overall revenue growth and improved net income, investors should note the decrease in net cash provided by operating activities, which fell by 20% to $64 million. This was attributed to factors such as increased inventory, pension contributions, and reduced accounts payable, partially offset by lower accounts receivable. The company also reported increased net interest expense due to higher debt levels incurred to finance the Exelis acquisition. The company highlighted strong performance across its four reporting segments, all of which saw significant revenue increases, largely due to the Exelis integration.

The company is actively pursuing a significant acquisition of Exelis, which was announced in February 2015 and is expected to close in June 2015, subject to regulatory and shareholder approvals. This pending acquisition has led to increased financing activities and associated costs, including new debt issuance and redemption of existing notes, impacting the company's financial structure and increasing leverage. Operational performance varied across segments, with RF Communications showing slight revenue decline but operating income growth, while Government Communications Systems experienced revenue decline but operating income growth, and Integrated Network Solutions saw declines in both revenue and operating income. Management is focused on navigating the integration of Exelis while managing ongoing operational performance.

(LHX) reported a slight decrease in revenue for the quarter ended September 26, 2014, compared to the prior year, with total revenue falling by 3.1% to $1.155 billion.

Despite the revenue dip, net income attributable to common shareholders remained stable at $125.1 million, resulting in diluted earnings per share of $1.18, consistent with the previous year's quarter. The company also demonstrated a commitment to returning value to shareholders, increasing its quarterly cash dividend and continuing its share repurchase program. Liquidity remains strong, with ample cash and cash equivalents and an available revolving credit facility, although net cash provided by operating activities saw a significant decrease compared to the prior year due to timing of product shipments and inventory build-up.

This robust cash flow, combined with a solid balance sheet and an undrawn credit facility, indicates a strong liquidity position.

Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations were $1.12, compared to $1.38 in the same period last year.

The company continued its strategic divestiture of non-core assets, with the sale of Broadcast Communications expected to close in early 2013. This divestiture, along with the exit from cyber integrated solutions, led to significant charges related to discontinued operations, resulting in a net loss for the current reporting period. However, excluding these items, the core business demonstrated operational resilience with improved profitability.

Oct 31, 2012L3Harris Technologies, Inc. (LHX) reported a net loss of $85.8 million for the quarter ended September 28, 2012, a significant shift from the net income of $121.6 million in the prior year's comparable quarter. This loss was primarily driven by a substantial charge related to discontinued operations, specifically impairment charges of $222.3 million for the divestiture of Broadcast Communications and the exit of its cyber integrated solutions operation (CIS). Excluding these discontinued operations, income from continuing operations was $128.5 million, a slight decrease from $131.1 million in the prior year, but earnings per diluted share saw a modest increase to $1.14 from $1.09, largely due to a reduction in outstanding shares. Revenue for the quarter declined by 5.6% to $1,261.5 million, attributed to lower sales in the RF Communications and Integrated Network Solutions segments, partially offset by growth in Government Communications Systems. The company highlights increased operating income in Integrated Network Solutions, despite revenue declines, due to the absence of acquisition-related charges from the prior year, and continued growth in Government Communications Systems. The company also strengthened its liquidity position by establishing a new $1 billion senior unsecured revolving credit facility and continued its share repurchase program, though at a lower pace than the previous year.

May 2, 2012L3Harris Technologies, Inc. (LHX) reported a significant loss from continuing operations for the three quarters ended March 30, 2012, primarily driven by a substantial non-cash impairment charge of $424.0 million related to goodwill and other long-lived assets within its Integrated Network Solutions segment, specifically impacting the Broadcast Communications business. This impairment, coupled with a planned exit from its cyber integrated solutions (CIS) operation, led to a net loss attributable to shareholders of $98.5 million for the nine-month period, a stark contrast to the $454.5 million net income in the prior year. Despite the significant impairment, the company's revenue showed modest growth of 2.7% year-over-year for the nine-month period, reaching $4.37 billion, driven by increases in the Integrated Network Solutions and Government Communications Systems segments, partially offset by a decline in RF Communications. The company also highlighted its ongoing share repurchase program and dividend payments, demonstrating a continued focus on returning capital to shareholders, although the substantial impairment charge is a major overhang for investors to consider.

Feb 1, 2012L3Harris Technologies, Inc. (LHX) reported its second quarter fiscal year 2012 results, showing a slight revenue increase of 0.5% to $1,446.4 million compared to the prior year quarter. However, net income saw a significant decrease of 11.9% to $133.1 million, resulting in diluted earnings per share of $1.16, down from $1.18 in the prior year. This decline was primarily attributed to higher operating costs associated with recent acquisitions and integration efforts, particularly within the Integrated Network Solutions segment. Additionally, increased interest expenses due to higher borrowings to fund acquisitions and share repurchases also impacted profitability. The company's performance varied across its segments. RF Communications experienced a revenue decrease, partly due to the absence of significant expedited shipments seen in the prior year. Integrated Network Solutions saw revenue growth driven by acquisitions, but its operating income was negatively impacted by integration charges and losses in specific initiatives. The Government Communications Systems segment showed modest revenue growth and an increase in operating income, driven by a favorable product mix and cost performance.

This decline was primarily attributed to lower operating income in the RF Communications segment, which had benefited significantly from expedited shipments of tactical radios in the prior year, and increased integration costs and new initiative losses within the Integrated Network Solutions segment. Despite the dip in profitability, consolidated revenue saw a modest increase of 3.9% to $1,460.3 million, driven by the Integrated Network Solutions segment's growth, largely from recent acquisitions. The company's liquidity position remained strong, with $305.4 million in cash and cash equivalents. However, operating cash flow decreased substantially to $78.7 million from $294.9 million year-over-year, impacted by lower net income and changes in working capital.

However, net income for the quarter declined by 16.1% to $139.5 million, or $1.09 per diluted share, compared to the prior year. This decrease was influenced by a less favorable product mix in the RF Communications segment and increased interest expenses related to recent and pending acquisitions.

Despite the quarterly net income dip, the year-to-date revenue increased by 13.5% to $4.26 billion, with net income also showing an 10.8% increase to $454.5 million.
