Third quarter 2006 results included a $112.5 million pre-tax, or $0.20 per diluted share, legal provision. Sales for the 2007 third quarter increased 7 percent to $7.9 billion from $7.4 billion in the 2006 third quarter.

Operating Highlights* ($ millions except per Third Quarter Nine Months share data) 2007 2006 Change 2007 2006 Change Sales 7,928 7,429 7% 23,194 22,100 5% Operating margin 807 549 47% 2,246 1,841 22% as a % of sales 10.2% 7.4% 280 bps 9.7% 8.3% 140 bps Income from continuing operations 490 308 59% 1,346 1,116 21% Diluted EPS from continuing operations 1.41 .88 60% 3.84 3.17 21% Net income 489 302 62% 1,336 1,089 23% Diluted EPS 1.41 .86 64% 3.81 3.09 23% Cash from operations 1,015 962 6% 2,156 1,485 45% * Operating results for all periods presented reflect the reclassification of Interconnect Technologies (formerly reported in Electronics) from continuing to discontinued operations. "Higher sales, higher segment operating margin, and lower corporate expenses drove this quarter's EPS increase. Our four businesses performed well, expanding segment operating margin rate to more than 10 percent, led by a very strong performance at Ships. Cash from operations of more than $1 billion was a record and brought us to more than $2.1 billion year-to-date. We ended the quarter with a $64 billion total backlog, another record for the company," said Ronald D. Sugar, Northrop Grumman chairman and chief executive officer. "Based on year-to-date double-digit growth in net income and EPS, we are raising guidance for 2007 earnings per share to approximately $5.10 on a sales base of approximately $31.5 billion. Our focus on performance is generating sales growth, higher margin rates, double-digit EPS growth and solid cash generation in 2007, and we are driving performance to ensure this strength continues in 2008," Sugar concluded. Third quarter 2007 operating margin increased $258 million, or 47 percent, to $807 million from $549 million in the prior year period, driven by higher segment operating margin, substantially lower unallocated expense, and lower net pension adjustment. Segment operating margin increased $118 million, or 17 percent, and as a percent of sales increased 90 basis points to 10.3 percent from 9.4 percent in the prior year period. Third quarter 2007 unallocated expenses declined $107 million from the prior year period, which included a $112.5 million legal provision. Third quarter 2007 net pension adjustment declined $33 million. As a percent of sales, operating margin increased 280 basis points to 10.2 percent from 7.4 percent. Federal and foreign income taxes for the 2007 third quarter increased to $241 million from $169 million in the third quarter of 2006. The effective tax rate applied to income from continuing operations for the 2007 third quarter was 33.0 percent compared with 35.4 percent in the 2006 third quarter. Net income for the 2007 third quarter increased 62 percent to $489 million, or $1.41 per diluted share, from $302 million, or $0.86 per diluted share, for the same period of 2006. Earnings per share are based on weighted average diluted shares outstanding of 352.6 million for the third quarter of 2007 and 351 million for the third quarter of 2006. For both the three months and nine months in 2007, weighted average shares outstanding include 6.4 million shares for the dilutive effects of the company's Series B mandatorily redeemable preferred stock; the effects of these mandatorily redeemable preferred shares were not included in weighted average shares outstanding for the three and nine months in 2006 because they were not dilutive. New business awards in the 2007 third quarter totaled $11.5 billion led by business awards at Aerospace and Electronics. New business awards are firm contractual additions to backlog received during the period. Funded contract acquisitions for the 2007 third quarter totaled $7.5 billion compared with $6.2 billion for the same period of 2006. Total backlog, which includes funded backlog and firm orders for which funding is not currently contractually obligated by the customer, was $64.1 billion on Sept. 30, 2007. Cash Flow Highlights Third Quarter Nine Months ($ millions) 2007 2006 Change 2007 2006 Change Cash from operations 1,015 962 53 2,156 1,485 671 Less: Capital expenditures 133 169 36 431 493 62 Outsourcing contract & related software costs 9 43 34 89 43 (46) Free cash flow(1) 873 750 123 1,636 949 687 (1) Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure defined as cash from operations less capital expenditures and outsourcing contract & related software costs. Management uses free cash flow as an internal measure of financial performance. Cash provided by operations in the 2007 third quarter totaled more than $1 billion compared with $962 million in the prior year period. The year-over-year improvement is primarily driven by higher net income, partially offset by an increase in cash income taxes paid. Third quarter 2007 capital spending totaled $133 million and included $30 million for Hurricane Katrina, compared with capital spending of $169 million in the third quarter of 2006, which included $26 million for Hurricane Katrina. Third quarter 2007 free cash flow increased to $873 million from $750 million. Year-to-date free cash flow increased to $1.6 billion from $949 million reflecting improved cash from operations and reductions in cash used in discontinued operations.

Information & Services Third Quarter ($ millions) 2007 2006 Operating % Operating % Sales Margin of Sales Sales Margin of Sales Mission Systems $1,459 $144 9.9% $1,340 $131 9.8% Information Technology 1,107 72 6.5% 1,023 92 9.0% Technical Services 573 28 4.9% 526 34 6.5% $3,139 $244 7.8% $2,889 $257 8.9% Information & Services third quarter 2007 sales increased $250 million, or 9 percent, from the prior year period driven by higher sales for all three reporting segments. Although sales increased, Information & Services operating margin declined by $13 million or 5 percent, and as a percent of sales declined to 7.8 percent from 8.9 percent in the prior year period. Mission Systems sales increased $119 million, or 9 percent, due to the Essex Corporation acquisition, higher volume for several missile defense programs, and higher volume for several command, control & communications programs. Operating margin rose $13 million, or 10 percent, and as a percent of sales, was 9.9 percent compared with 9.8 percent in the prior year's third quarter. The increase in margin was primarily driven by higher volume, and includes improved performance for several programs, which was partially offset by an increase in amortization of purchased intangibles. Information Technology sales rose $84 million, or 8 percent, largely due to higher volume for state and local programs and restricted intelligence programs. Higher volume for these programs was partially offset by lower volume for civilian agencies programs. Information Technology third quarter 2007 operating margin declined $20 million, or 22 percent. As a percent of sales, operating margin declined to 6.5 percent from 9 percent principally due to lower performance for state and local IT outsourcing programs. The lower performance is due to growth in transition cost (including $22 million in increased amortization of deferred and other outsourcing costs). Third quarter operating margin also included improved performance for intelligence programs and discretionary spending for shared internal information systems infrastructure. Technical Services sales rose $47 million, or 9 percent, primarily due to the Nevada Test Site program. Operating margin decreased $6 million, or 18 percent from the prior year period, which included performance improvements for several programs. As a percent of sales, operating margin declined to 4.9 percent from 6.5 percent in the prior year period. Aerospace Third Quarter ($ millions) 2007 2006 Operating % Operating % Sales Margin of Sales Sales Margin of Sales Integrated Systems $1,255 $145 11.6% $1,317 $137 10.4% Space Technology 750 59 7.9% 699 66 9.4% $2,005 $204 10.2% $2,016 $203 10.1% Aerospace third quarter 2007 sales declined slightly from the prior year period due to lower volume in Integrated Systems, partially offset by higher volume in Space Technology. Aerospace third quarter 2007 operating margin was comparable to the prior year period, and as a percent of sales, increased to 10.2 percent from 10.1 percent. Integrated Systems sales declined $62 million, or 5 percent, primarily due to lower volume for the E-2D Advanced Hawkeye, F-35 and EA-18G programs, as these programs transition from development to production, as well as significant customer-directed scope reductions associated with the E-10A platform and related MP-RTIP efforts. Lower volume in these programs was partially offset by higher volume for the F/A-18 and Global Hawk programs. Integrated Systems operating margin rose $8 million, or 6 percent, and as a percent of sales, increased to 11.6 percent from 10.4 percent in the prior year period. The operating margin increase includes performance improvements for E-2 programs, which more than offset the impact of lower sales volume. Space Technology sales increased $51 million, or 7 percent, primarily due to higher volume for restricted programs and the James Webb Space Telescope. Increases in these programs were partially offset by lower volume in the Advanced Extremely High Frequency program. Space Technology operating margin decreased $7 million, or 11 percent, and as a percent of sales declined to 7.9 percent from 9.4 percent in the prior year period. Space Technology operating margin in the 2006 third quarter included several favorable performance adjustments. Electronics Third Quarter ($ millions) 2007 2006 Operating % Operating % Sales Margin of Sales Sales Margin of Sales $1,673 $211 12.6% $1,665 $198 11.9% Electronics third quarter 2007 sales were slightly higher than the prior year period and include higher volume for electro-optical and infrared countermeasures programs, a restricted program and commercial products, which was partially offset by declining volume on fixed price development programs. Electronics third quarter 2007 operating margin increased $13 million, or 7 percent, and as a percent of sales, increased to 12.6 percent from 11.9 percent in the prior year period. Operating margin for the 2007 third quarter includes favorable performance adjustments on several programs. Ships Third Quarter ($ millions) 2007 2006 Operating % Operating % Sales Margin of Sales Sales Margin of Sales $1,469 $183 12.5% $1,238 $76 6.1% Ships third quarter 2007 sales rose $231 million, or 19 percent, from the prior year period. The increase primarily includes higher volume for the LPD, DDG, LHA and U.S. Coast Guard programs. Third quarter 2007 sales also include $36 million from AMSEC. AMSEC was reorganized in July 2007, and the businesses retained under the reorganization are now reported in the Ships segment. Ships third quarter 2007 operating margin increased $107 million, or 141 percent, from the prior year period. As a percent of sales, operating margin rate more than doubled to 12.5 percent from 6.1 percent in the prior year period. The increase in third quarter 2007 operating margin over the prior year period reflects risk reduction upon completion of several contract actions, higher volume, performance improvements, and a $22 million pre-tax gain resulting from the AMSEC reorganization.
