First quarter earnings reveal mixed results, with overall sales down but profits growing, particularly in Communication Systems and Aerojet Rocketdyne. L3Harris is undervalued, trading below median EV/EBITDA levels, offering a compelling entry point with a 35% upside potential based on 2025 earnings. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

Summary L3Harris Technologies is evolving into a pure defense technology player, with strategic acquisitions like Aerojet Rocketdyne and Viasat’s Tactical Data Links.

Recent financials show 5% organic growth in revenue and adjusted EPS, with a strong outlook for a 16%+ operating margin by FY26.

Despite recent acquisitions increasing debt, the company's focus on smaller, profitable deals and operational improvements supports a strong long-term valuation and growth outlook.
