L3HARRIS TECHNOLOGIES, INC. /DE/ Quarterly Report for Q3 Ended Sep 30, 2022

Filed October 31, 2022For Securities:LHX

Summary

L3Harris Technologies, Inc. reported a net loss of $300 million for the third quarter of 2022, a significant shift from the $481 million net income in the same quarter of the prior year. This loss was largely driven by substantial non-cash impairment charges of $802 million related to goodwill and other assets across various reporting units, including Broadband, ADG, and Electro Optical. Revenue for the quarter remained relatively flat year-over-year at $4.25 billion, but for the first nine months of 2022, revenue declined by 7% to $12.48 billion, primarily due to business divestitures. Despite the quarterly loss, the company generated positive operating cash flow of $1.38 billion for the first nine months of 2022. L3Harris also continues to return capital to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases, although the pace of buybacks has slowed compared to the prior year. The company announced a significant subsequent event: a definitive agreement to acquire Viasat's tactical data links product line for approximately $1.96 billion, which is expected to close in the first half of 2023 and will be funded by debt.
