Summary
Lockheed Martin Corporation (LMT) filed an 8-K on April 26, 2004, reporting on financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2004. The primary purpose of this filing is to furnish a press release, dated April 27, 2004, which contains detailed information about the company's performance during the first quarter of 2004. Investors should refer to this press release for specific financial figures, operational updates, and management's commentary on the company's financial condition and results of operations. The filing itself does not contain extensive details but directs stakeholders to the provided press release (Exhibit 99) for the substantive information. This approach is common for 8-K filings when announcing quarterly earnings, allowing for a comprehensive presentation of financial data and forward-looking statements within a dedicated press release format. Investors are advised to review Exhibit 99 for a full understanding of LMT's first-quarter 2004 performance.
