Did RTX Beat Earnings? Q1 2025 Results
RTX opened 2025 on firm footing, posting first-quarter revenue of $20.31 billion, up 5.2% year-over-year and ahead of the $19.80 billion consensus by 2.57%, while adjusted EPS of $1.47 cleared the $1.37 estimate by 7.52%, reflecting disciplined execu… Read more RTX opened 2025 on firm footing, posting first-quarter revenue of $20.31 billion, up 5.2% year-over-year and ahead of the $19.80 billion consensus by 2.57%, while adjusted EPS of $1.47 cleared the $1.37 estimate by 7.52%, reflecting disciplined execution across all three business segments. The standout driver was commercial aftermarket, which surged 21% on a consolidated basis as robust demand at both Pratt & Whitney and Collins Aerospace translated directly into margin expansion; adjusted segment operating margin climbed 120 basis points to 11.9%. Free cash flow swung sharply positive to $792 million from negative $125 million a year ago, underscoring improving operational momentum. RTX held its full-year outlook steady, targeting adjusted sales of $83 to $84 billion and adjusted EPS of $6.00 to $6.15, though the guidance carries an important asterisk: management explicitly excluded the impact of recently enacted tariffs, which the company estimates could weigh on operating profit by roughly $850 million, a disclosure that tempered investor enthusiasm despite the otherwise strong headline results.
Key Takeaways
- • Commercial aftermarket up 21% year-over-year driven by continued demand and growth in commercial air traffic
- • Pratt & Whitney commercial aftermarket up 28% driven by higher volume and favorable mix across Large Commercial Engines and Pratt Canada
- • Collins Aerospace commercial aftermarket up 13% driven by continued growth in commercial air traffic
- • Collins Aerospace defense sales up 10% driven by higher volume across multiple C4I programs, SAOC, and F-35
- • 120 basis points of adjusted segment margin expansion
- • 8% consolidated organic sales growth
