what happened
Northrop Grumman reported third-quarter revenue of $11.1 billion. That is marginally below the $11.14 billion estimate compiled by IBES, according to Reuters.
The company's earnings per share for the quarter came in at $7.89, the agency's brief said.
why it matters
For investors in defense stocks, results like these serve as a gauge of steady revenue from a large contractor. A gap of a fraction of a percent versus forecasts rarely shifts the whole sector, but the market will focus on profit, order trends and management commentary, which shape how investors view the shares.
