Lockheed Martin saw first-quarter earnings of $5.99 a share, an increase of 49% from a year earlier.
The company also updates its forecast for 2019 financial results, with full year revenue now estimated to total between $56.8 billion and $58.3 billion — up from $55.8 billion to $57.3 billion.
The contractor says trade policies or sanctions could impact business as well as the Pentagon’s recent decision to suspend sales of F-35 aircraft to Turkey.
