What were the main drivers behind the revenue decline in the second quarter of 2022?

The revenue decline of 11% in the second quarter of 2022 was primarily driven by the impact of completed business divestitures, ongoing supply chain disruptions affecting production and delivery, and transitions in airborne programs. There was also a slightly lower revenue due to one less working day in the quarter compared to the prior year.

How did the company manage its expenses despite lower revenues?

The company effectively managed its expenses, with Engineering, Selling, and Administrative (ESA) expenses decreasing by 16% in the quarter. This reduction was due to lower costs from divested businesses, reduced R&D expenses, and favorable impacts from changes in the market value of its deferred compensation plan liabilities.

What is the outlook for the company's liquidity and financial resources?

L3Harris maintains a strong liquidity position with $420 million in cash and cash equivalents as of July 1, 2022, and an undrawn $2 billion revolving credit facility. The company anticipates that its existing cash, cash generated from operations, and credit facilities will be sufficient to meet its working capital needs, capital expenditures, dividend payments, share repurchases, and debt repayments for the next twelve months and beyond. Capital expenditures for fiscal 2022 are expected to be around $300 million.

How has the company addressed its pension obligations?

The company is not required to make any contributions to its U.S. qualified defined benefit pension plans in fiscal year 2022 and for several years thereafter, due to prior voluntary contributions and positive plan performance. The net unfunded defined benefit plan obligation was $436 million as of July 1, 2022. Future contributions will depend on investment returns and discount rates.
