FALLS CHURCH, Va. – Oct. 24, 2012 – Northrop Grumman Corporation (NYSE: NOC) reported third quarter 2012 earnings from continuing operations of $459 million, or $1.82 per diluted share, compared with $520 million, or $1.86 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2011. The change in earnings and earnings per share is largely due to a $66 million decrease in net pension income in the 2012 third quarter. On a pension-adjusted basis, earnings per diluted share from continuing operations increased 6 percent to $1.73 from $1.63. During the third quarter the company repurchased 4.4 million shares of its common stock for approximately $290 million. Year to date through Sept. 30, 2012, the company has repurchased 13.6 million shares of its common stock, and $2.0 billion remains on its current share repurchase authorization.
“Our focus on performance, effective cash deployment, and portfolio alignment continues to create value for our shareholders, customers and employees. We are working closely with our customers to bring innovative, affordable solutions to support their needs in today's fiscally constrained environment,” said Wes Bush, chairman, chief executive officer and president.

Third quarter 2012 operating income decreased $89 million, or 11 percent, and operating margin rate was 11.7 percent compared with 12.5 percent in the prior year period. The change in both operating income and operating margin rate is principally due to a $66 million decrease in net FAS/CAS pension adjustment in the 2012 third quarter. On a pension-adjusted basis, operating income was $702 million, and pension-adjusted operating margin rate expanded 20 basis points to 11.2 percent from 11.0 percent.
Third quarter 2012 net earnings totaled $459 million, or $1.82 per diluted share, compared with $520 million, or $1.86 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2011. Third quarter 2012 diluted earnings per share are based on 252.1 million weighted average shares outstanding compared with 279.3 million shares in the third quarter of 2011, a 10 percent decrease.
As of Sept. 30, 2012, total backlog was $41.0 billion compared with total backlog of $39.5 billion on Dec. 31, 2011. Total backlog as of Sept. 30, 2012, includes new business awards of $20.2 billion.

Cash provided by continuing operations through Sept. 30, 2012, increased to $1.6 billion from $1.0 billion in the prior year, due to lower discretionary pension funding and working capital requirements than in the prior year period. In the third quarter of 2012 the company made a $300 million discretionary contribution to its pension plans that impacted cash flows through Sept. 30, 2012, by $221 million on an after-tax basis, compared with a discretionary contribution of $500 million in 2011 that impacted cash flows by $367 million on an after-tax basis. Free cash flow from continuing operations through Sept. 30, 2012, totaled $1.4 billion compared with $700 million in the prior year due to the cash trends mentioned above and lower capital spending than in the prior year period.
Before the impact of discretionary pension plan contributions, cash provided by continuing operations totaled $1.0 billion for the 2012 third quarter and $1.8 billion for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2012, and free cash flow totaled $969 million for the 2012 third quarter and $1.6 billion for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2012.

Aerospace Systems third quarter 2012 sales increased 5 percent due to higher volume for unmanned systems, including NATO AGS and Fire Scout, and military aircraft programs, principally the F-35. Higher volume for these areas was partially offset by lower volume for restricted programs and the termination of a weather satellite program in space systems.
Aerospace Systems third quarter 2012 operating income declined 2 percent and operating margin rate declined to 11.1 percent from 12 percent. The change in operating income and margin rate is principally due to the F/A-18 program's transition from the multiyear 2 contract to the lower margin multiyear 3 contract.

Electronic Systems third quarter 2012 sales declined 10 percent, which reflects lower volume for combat avionics and postal automation programs, including the de-emphasis of the company's domestic postal automation business. Volume for infrared countermeasures and laser systems programs also declined due to force reductions in overseas contingency operations. Declines in these programs were partially offset by higher volume for space systems programs.
Electronic Systems third quarter 2012 operating income declined 5 percent, and operating margin rate increased 90 basis points to 16.3 percent. Lower operating income is due to lower volume and higher margin rate reflects improved program performance. Third quarter 2011 operating income included a provision for a dispute on a domestic postal automation program.

Lower intelligence systems sales are primarily due to lower volume for several restricted programs.

Northrop Grumman Reports Third Quarter 2012 Financial Results | 15 | |
Non-GAAP Financial Measures Disclosure: Today’s press release contains non-GAAP (accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America) financial measures, as defined by SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) Regulation G and indicated by a footnote in the text of the release. While we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures may be useful in evaluating our financial information, they should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Definitions are provided for the non-GAAP measures and reconciliations are provided in the body of the release. References to a “Table” in the definitions below relate to tables in the body of this press release. Other companies may define these measures differently or may utilize different non-GAAP measures.
Pension-adjusted diluted EPS from continuing operations: Diluted EPS from continuing operations excluding the after-tax net pension adjustment per share, as defined below. These per share amounts are provided for consistency and comparability of operating results. Management uses pension-adjusted diluted EPS from continuing operations, as reconciled in Table 1, as an internal measure of financial performance.
Cash provided by continuing operations before discretionary pension contributions: Cash provided by continuing operations before the after-tax impact of discretionary pension contributions. Cash provided by continuing operations before discretionary pension contributions has been provided for consistency and comparability of 2012 and 2011 financial performance and is reconciled in Table 2.
Free cash flow provided by continuing operations: Cash provided by continuing operations less capital expenditures (including outsourcing contract & related software costs). We use free cash flow from continuing operations as a key factor in our planning for, and consideration of, strategic acquisitions, stock repurchases and the payment of dividends. This measure should not be considered in isolation, as a measure of residual cash flow available for discretionary purposes, or as an alternative to operating results presented in accordance with GAAP. Free cash flow from continuing operations is reconciled in Table 2.
Free cash flow provided by continuing operations before discretionary pension contributions: Free cash flow from continuing operations before the after-tax impact of discretionary pension contributions. We use free cash flow from continuing operations before discretionary pension contributions as a key factor in our planning for, and consideration of, strategic acquisitions, stock repurchases and the payment of dividends. This measure should not be considered in isolation, as a measure of residual cash flow available for discretionary purposes, or as an alternative to operating results presented in accordance with GAAP. Free cash flow from continuing operations before discretionary pension contributions is reconciled in Table 2.
Net FAS/CAS pension adjustment: Pension expense determined in accordance with GAAP less pension expense allocated to the operating segments under U.S. Government Cost Accounting Standards (CAS). Net pension adjustment is presented in Table 1.
After-tax net pension adjustment per share: The per share impact of the net pension adjustment as defined above, after tax at the statutory rate of 35%, provided for consistency and comparability of 2012 and 2011 financial performance as presented in Table 1.
Pension-adjusted operating income: Operating income before net pension adjustment as reconciled in Table 1. Management uses pension-adjusted operating income as an internal measure of financial performance.
Pension-adjusted operating margin rate: Pension-adjusted operating income as defined above, divided by sales. Management uses pension-adjusted operating margin rate, as reconciled in Table 1, as an internal measure of financial performance.
Segment operating income: Total earnings from our four segments including allocated pension expense recognized under CAS. Reconciling items to operating income are unallocated corporate expenses, including unallowable or unallocable portions of management and administration, legal, environmental, certain compensation and retiree benefits, and other expenses; net pension adjustment; and reversal of royalty income included in segment operating income. Management uses segment operating income, as reconciled in Table 3, as an internal measure of financial performance of our individual operating segments.
Segment operating margin rate: Segment operating income as defined above, divided by sales. Management uses segment operating margin rate, as reconciled in Table 3, as an internal measure of financial performance.
