Moat63
Equal-weight average of four evidence-backed rubric grades (0–4), scaled to 100.
structural advantage · 3/4 · GTF deployment, F135 operating history and follow-on awards demonstrate embedded positions with specialized capabilities. Contractual aircraft-platform rights and long-term aftermarket agreements reinforce barriers to displacement. These are demonstrated program-level advantages, while portfolio-wide superiority and protection from alternative parts suppliers remain unestablished.
durability · 2/4 · Installed fleets, long-term aftermarket agreements and five- to seven-year munitions UCAs support persistence. However, optional portions and undefinitized terms qualify the awards, while government termination rights and undisclosed platform-right durations limit confidence in sustained economic protection. Demand visibility exceeds demonstrated durability of returns.
customer dependency · 3/4 · F135 deployment, follow-on production and extensive GTF use demonstrate strong dependence on established engine positions. Long-term service agreements and realized aftermarket volume provide indirect operating confirmation. This does not establish exclusive aftermarket capture or a retention rate, and customers can source some parts elsewhere.
erosion resilience · 2/4 · Aftermarket growth, production achievements and additional multiyear awards show that established positions persist. Actual customer payments and credits, accelerated engine inspections and supply-chain disruption establish meaningful vulnerabilities. The evidence demonstrates resilience alongside erosion risks, rather than either immunity or realized loss of the overall franchise.
Pouvoir de fixation des prix44
Equal-weight average of four evidence-backed rubric grades (0–4), scaled to 100.
realized pricing · 1/4 · RTX reports actual inflation pressure and an inability always to offset higher costs through contract value or pricing. That supports weak demonstrated pricing power rather than an unassessable criterion. First-half 2026 aftermarket growth primarily reflects volume; the passages do not quantify a realized price contribution.
retention · 3/4 · Follow-on F135 awards, long-term aftermarket agreements, growing aftermarket volume and new multiyear munitions awards demonstrate repeat demand and program continuity indirectly. No retention rate is inferred. Backlog corroborates demand but remains sensitive to award timing, and mandatory inspections can contribute to service activity.
margin resilience · 2/4 · Reported 2025 adjusted operating-profit growth and segment margin expansion, followed by higher aftermarket profit contribution in first-half 2026, demonstrate resilience. OEM production costs, inflation pressure and customer obligations offset that evidence. The results support a mixed assessment and do not establish that pricing protected margins.
contractual freedom · 1/4 · Firm fixed-price contracts leave RTX bearing cost overruns, and current disclosures confirm limits on repricing to recover inflation. Government termination rights further constrain bargaining freedom. Long-term platform positions support demand but do not establish unilateral control over contract terms or unrestricted aftermarket pricing.

Solidité financière36
Equal-weight grades: debt/FCF (1–8x), net debt/earnings before interest and tax (0–5x), interest service (1–12x), current ratio (0.75–2x). Earnings use reported operating income, an original issuer-reported unadjusted EBIT reconciled to net income, income tax and signed net interest, or reported pretax profit plus reported gross interest expense. Reported EBIT is distinct from GAAP operating income and gross interest. Interest service uses earnings/interest expense; if unavailable, it uses reported operating cash flow/cash interest paid, without relabeling cash paid as accrued expense. Nonpositive cash flow/earnings score 0 for their service component; reported zero interest with a positive numerator scores 100. Net cash scores 100 for net leverage. Missing disclosures remain unavailable. General nonfinancial-company rubric, not a credit rating; exceptional and nonoperating gains are not normalized out. IFRS finance-cost and cash-flow classifications retain their reported scope.

Allocation du capital82
Three-year equal-weight indicators: pretax return on average invested capital (0–25%; equity + debt − cash, each year and its prior year), share-count growth (0–5%, lower better), share-based cost/revenue (2–20%, lower better), consolidated FCF/net income (0–1x). Return uses reported operating income, an original issuer-reported unadjusted EBIT reconciled to net income, income tax and signed net interest, or EBIT calculated from reported pretax profit plus reported gross interest expense; the issuer-reported EBIT is distinct from GAAP operating income and gross interest; exceptional/nonoperating gains are not normalized out. Share-based cost uses the reported cash-flow add-back or, if absent, separately reported recognized compensation expense; the latter never becomes an FCF adjustment. Nonpositive net income scores 0 for cash conversion; absent income/FCF stays unavailable. ROIC remains undefined for nonpositive invested capital; the explicit asset-return alternative does not change the ROIC chart. Missing financial inputs alone never trigger an alternative. Does not establish acquisition quality or buyback timing.

Qualité du management50
Equal-weight average of four evidence-backed rubric grades (0–4), scaled to 100.
capital discipline · 2/4 · Actual 2025 operating cash generation, capital investment and debt repayment support discipline. The debt-financed $10 billion repurchase, realized customer obligations and substantial financing and contractual commitments make the record mixed. The supplied evidence does not establish returns on expansion spending or the valuation merits of repurchases.
incentive alignment · 2/4 · Multiyear performance-conditioned PSUs, an actual prior-award performance adjustment and ownership, hedging and clawback safeguards provide concrete alignment evidence. Financial-only annual incentive funding weakens the direct link to nonfinancial quality outcomes. Future PSU vesting and individual compliance with ownership requirements are not established by these passages.
execution · 2/4 · Cash generation, doubled AMRAAM production, LTAMDS production transition and realized aftermarket growth demonstrate delivery beyond management praise. Accelerated engine inspections, customer payments and supply-chain disruption establish consequential weaknesses. Execution is assessed from operating outcomes; demand growth and new awards are not attributed entirely to management skill.
governance · 2/4 · Independent committees, shareholder rights, compensation safeguards and related-person transaction review establish formal oversight. Actual settlement payments and engagement of an independent compliance monitor demonstrate consequential historical control failures and remediation. These disclosures support a mixed assessment; they do not yet demonstrate durable effectiveness of the corrective controls.
