Management attributed the modest year-on-year sales decline primarily to lower volumes at Newport News and Ingalls Shipbuilding, along with the normalization following nonrecurring sales in the prior year. CEO Chris Kastner emphasized that atypical weather impacted Newport News schedules, while ongoing supply chain delays—especially late-arriving equipment for CVN 80—limited productivity. Despite these headwinds, the company improved segment operating income, driven by stronger performance in Mission Technologies’ cyber and uncrewed systems, and maintained stable operating margins.
