|  | March 26, 2026<br>**Dear Fellow Stockholders:** |
| <br>![Taiclet02 copy.jpg](lmt-20260326_g12.jpg) | Throughout 2025, Lockheed Martin demonstrated scale, agility and performance. We delivered the capabilities our soldiers, sailors, marines, airmen, guardians and other customers rely on to deter wider conflict, protect citizens, and sustain a decisive military advantage in an increasingly complex global security environment. Our Board's disciplined oversight of strategy and operational execution underpin the company's notable achievements.<br>**2025 Performance and Demand**<br>Lockheed Martin's products and solutions in 2025, showed what our four business areas – Aeronautics, Missiles and Fire Control, Rotary and Mission Systems and Space – can deliver as one cohesive company with unmatched integration, reliability and scale. <br>There is unprecedented demand for Lockheed Martin's technology. We finished 2025 with a record backlog of nearly $194 billion, representing more than two-and-a-half years of sales. Elevated demand has continued in 2026 with Lockheed Martin reaching landmark, long-term agreements with the Department of War to triple Patriot PAC-3 MSE missile production and quadruple THAAD production.<br>**Investing and Innovating** <br>Lockheed Martin is significantly increasing its investments while maintaining our historical practice of using a disciplined and dynamic approach to capital allocation. Every investment decision is guided by our mission to provide decisive capability to our customers, and by our focus on growing the business and delivering shareholder value in 2026 and beyond. <br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Air Dominance:** We are accelerating upgrades to the F-35 through Block 4 enhancements; advancing concepts informed by sixth-generation development; improving sensors, electronic warfare and data links; and integrating autonomous systems such as drone wingmen. <br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Homeland Defense:** Lockheed Martin is ready to help make the promise of the Golden Dome for America a reality. We are investing in our production capacity for our proven land-, sea- and space-based systems, as well as command and control technology, to advance allied homeland defense systems—an important growth area for Lockheed Martin. |

\* &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Gen. Dunford is not standing for reelection. This is because of a change in his professional circumstances and not because of a disagreement with the Company. He will remain CBS Committee chair until the Annual Meeting, after which the Board will appoint a new chair.

**The Board has vested significant authority with the independent Lead Director**

The Board has structured the independent Lead Director's role to optimize Board oversight of management and provide an outside perspective. The independent Lead Director has defined responsibilities specified in the Bylaws and Governance Guidelines or as otherwise assigned by the Board, which include:

• **Serving as Leader of the Independent Directors,** by chairing executive sessions of the independent directors and presiding as Chair at Board meetings when the Chairman is not present, determining the frequency and timing of executive sessions of independent directors, providing Board feedback and counsel to the Chairman and serving as Chairman of the Governance Committee and an ex officio member of each Board committee.

• **Approving Board and Committee Meeting Agendas and Schedules** in consultation with the Chairman and committee chairs.

• **Providing Feedback to Management** on the scope and quality of information sent to the Board, acting as liaison between the Board and management and among the directors and the committees of the Board and leading discussions among the independent directors to evaluate the Board's and the Chairman and CEO's performance.

• **Advancing Board Refreshment and Development,** by leading the Governance Committee's efforts to recruit directors and leading the Board's annual self-assessment process.

• **Communicating with Stockholders,** by serving as the Board's primary point of contact for stockholders and other stakeholders and meeting with investors when appropriate.

• **Having Authority to Call Special Meetings** of the Board or independent directors at any time for any purpose.

**Our independent Lead Director was elected unanimously by his peers and provides robust oversight of management and the Company**

In accordance with our Bylaws and Governance Guidelines, the independent directors annually elect from among themselves a Lead Director who has been determined to be "independent" for purposes of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) listing standards. In 2025, the Board re-elected Mr. Falk to serve as independent Lead Director, noting Mr. Falk's deep understanding of the Company from his service as a director and chair of a key Board Committee, his past experience leading boards of directors as Chairman of Kimberly-Clark Corporation and of the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, and his strategic perspective on global trends and business transformation.

Mr. Falk engages with Mr. Taiclet frequently to provide independent oversight of and strategic counsel to management and feedback from himself and from other directors on management and Company performance. Mr. Falk also leads the Board's annual self-evaluation process and conducts one-on-one meetings with each independent director to seek feedback on Board and Company operations and priorities, the Chairman and CEO's performance and composition of the Board itself. Mr. Falk actively advances Board refreshment by interviewing all potential director candidates. He also leads discussions of the independent directors on executive succession matters. Additionally, as chair of the Governance Committee and an ex officio member of the other committees, Mr. Falk has insight into and oversight of all matters before the Board.

**Our independent directors hold executive sessions without management present and provide direct feedback to the Chairman and CEO**

Our Governance Guidelines require that at least three Board meetings per year include an executive session of the independent directors and every Board and committee meeting agenda includes an executive session of the independent directors. The independent Lead Director presides over Board executive sessions and encourages direct feedback by the directors to the Chairman and CEO on matters discussed during executive session and supplements, or provides directly, that feedback when appropriate. Each committee chairman presides during that committee's executive sessions. In 2025, the Board met in executive session at every Board meeting to discuss, among other things, management and Board succession planning.

**Board Committees**

The Board established four standing committees to assist in fulfilling its oversight duties: Audit, Classified Business and Security (CBS Committee), Management Development and Compensation (Compensation Committee) and the Governance Committee. Charters for each committee are available on the Company's website at *www.lockheedmartin.com/corporate-governance*. The Board may establish other standing or special committees as necessary.

The Governance Committee regularly reviews the membership, tenure, leadership and commitments of each committee and evaluates composition changes based on the qualifications and expertise of the directors, taking into consideration the membership requirements and responsibilities set forth in the committee charters and Governance Guidelines and the potential benefit of periodic committee rotation or refreshment. The Governance Committee recommends to the Board any proposed changes to committee assignments and leadership, and reviews the operation of the Board generally.

**We transparently assess and disclose related person transactions**

The Board has approved a written policy and procedures for the review, approval and ratification, if necessary, of transactions among the Company and its directors, executive officers and their related interests. A copy of the policy is available on the Company's website at *www.lockheedmartin.com/corporate-governance*.<sup>1</sup> Our policy requires each director and executive officer to complete an annual questionnaire identifying any related interests and persons and to notify the Company promptly of changes in that information. The Company maintains a list of related persons for purposes of tracking and reporting related person transactions.

Our policy requires that the Governance Committee conduct a reasonable prior review of each related person transaction<sup>2</sup> and it may choose to approve the transaction at its discretion if deemed fair and reasonable to the Company and not inconsistent with the interests of the Company and its stockholders. No director may participate in the decision-making process regarding a transaction in which the director may have an interest (except when approval occurs by unanimous written consent).

Although our policy requires that all related person transactions be pre-approved, the Governance Committee has the authority to ratify a transaction (using the same standard of review) if a transaction is identified after it has occurred or commenced. The Governance Committee has also pre-approved certain categories of transactions or relationships, as provided in the policy. If the Governance Committee declines to approve or ratify a transaction, the related person transaction is referred to management to make a recommendation to the Governance Committee concerning whether the transaction should be terminated or amended in a manner that is acceptable to the Governance Committee.

**Related person transactions**

We considered the following transactions or relationships since January 1, 2025 to March 2026 to be "related person" transactions under our corporate policy and applicable SEC regulations and NYSE listing standards.

• **Employment Relationships**: As of December 31, 2025, we employed approximately 123,000 employees, and we have an active recruitment program for soliciting job applications from qualified candidates. We seek to hire the most qualified candidates and consequently do not preclude the employment of family members of directors or executive officers. The following non-executive Lockheed Martin employees are related to directors or executive officers: (i) Scott A. Cahill, the son of Timothy S. Cahill, President, Missiles and Fire Control, is employed as a senior software engineer (2025 salary of $161,720 and annual cash incentive award of $7,000; 2026 base salary of $166,630), (ii) Dr. Scott Carlson, the son of Gen. Carlson, a former member of the Board, is employed as a senior staff aeronautical engineer (2025 salary of $187,011 and annual cash incentive award of $12,000; 2026 base salary of $187,182); (iii) Cole-Stephen Hill, the son of Stephanie C. Hill, President, Rotary and Mission Systems, is employed as a cyber systems security engineer (2025 salary of $127,137 and annual cash incentive award of $3,432; 2026 base salary of $130,913); (iv) Cameron-Davis Hill, the son of Ms. Hill, is employed as a cyber software engineer (2025 salary of $111,239 and annual cash incentive of $4,623; 2026 base salary of $135,960); and (v) Grace St. John, the daughter of Frank A. St. John, Chief Operating Officer, is employed as a systems engineer (2025 salary of $98,629 and annual cash incentive of $4,622; 2026 base salary of $103,472). They each may be eligible to earn an incentive award for 2026 applicable to employees at their level and may participate in other employee benefit plans and arrangements that generally are made available to other employees at the same level (including health, welfare, vacation and retirement plans). Their respective compensation was established in accordance with the Company's employment and compensation practices applicable to employees with equivalent qualifications, experience and responsibilities, and the Board and executive officers of the Company did not have any involvement in setting their individual compensation.

• **Financial Services Arrangements**: From time to time, the Company has purchased services in the ordinary course of business from financial institutions that beneficially own five percent or more of our common stock. In 2025, the Company paid approximately (i) $3.8 million to State Street Company and its affiliates (including State Street Bank and Trust Company) (collectively, State Street) for investment management, custodial and benefit plan administration fees; and (ii) $2.2 million to BlackRock, Inc. and its affiliates for investment management fees. A portion of the fees included in the amounts paid to State Street and BlackRock are estimated based on a percentage of net asset value under management.

<sup>1</sup>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under our policy, and consistent with applicable SEC regulations and NYSE listing standards, a related person transaction is any transaction in which the Company was, is or will be a participant; where the amount involved exceeds $120,000; and in which a related person had, has, or will have a direct or indirect material interest. A related person includes any director or director nominee, any executive officer of the Company, any person who is known to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of any class of the Company's voting securities or an immediate family member of any person described above.

<sup>2</sup>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This may include situations where the Company provides products or services to related persons on an arm's length basis on terms comparable to those provided to unrelated third parties.

**Director Engagement**

**Our directors actively attend and participate in Board meetings**

Our directors are fully committed to their Board service. In 2025, there were six Board meetings. All directors on the Board during 2025 attended 100% of the Board and committee meetings to which they were assigned and, accordingly, overall attendance of the Board as a whole was 100%. Further, Board members commonly attend meetings of committees on which they do not sit. Board members are also encouraged to attend the annual meeting of stockholders, and all but one director serving on the Board at the time attended the 2025 Annual Meeting.

**The directors self-assess their performance annually**

The directors conduct a self-assessment of Board and committee performance and effectiveness on an annual basis. The self-assessment helps the Governance Committee identify ways to enhance the Board's and its committees' effectiveness and track progress in areas targeted for improvement from year to year. The evaluation process includes the following steps:

---

|:---|:---|:---|:---|

| Open-ended questions to solicit candid feedback.  | The independent Lead Director conducts annual and ad hoc one-on-one discussions with each director. | Each committee and the full Board review the results of their respective evaluations.  | Continued focus on strategic matters, operational performance and a OneLM approach.  |

**Board Accountability to Stockholders**

The Board and management of the Company view accountability to our stockholders as a key element of our success. Management engages regularly with stockholders representing a majority of our outstanding shares both from a financial performance perspective (led by our Investor Relations team) and from a governance perspective (led by our Corporate Secretary's Office). Similarly, we engage with proponents of stockholder proposals to understand their perspectives. These engagements provide an opportunity for management to both learn from stockholders and share insights into the Company's strategy, performance, compensation and governance model. Management shares feedback from these sessions with the Board, and both the Board and management use this feedback to further develop our governance policies and inform our business strategy.

**Our stockholders have significant rights**

• We elect directors using a majority standard in uncontested elections: The Company's Charter and Bylaws provide for simple majority voting, and our Governance Guidelines require that, in any uncontested election of directors, any incumbent director who receives more votes "AGAINST" than votes "FOR" is required to offer his or her resignation for Board consideration.

• Our stockholders have the right to amend our Bylaws: Our Bylaws provide the Company's stockholders the right to amend the Bylaws by the vote of a majority of the votes entitled to be cast. The authority of the stockholders and the Board to amend the Bylaws is subject to the provisions of the Company's Charter and applicable statutes.

• We have adopted proxy access in our Bylaws: Our Bylaws permit a stockholder or a group of up to 20 stockholders who together have owned at least three percent of the Company's outstanding common stock continuously for three years to nominate up to two directors for election by the Company's stockholders and inclusion in the Company's proxy solicitation materials for its annual meeting.

• Our stockholders have the right to call a special meeting: Any stockholder who individually owns 10 percent, or stockholders who in the aggregate own 25 percent, of the outstanding common stock may demand the calling of a special meeting to consider any business properly brought before the stockholders.

• We have no poison pill: Through our Governance Guidelines, the Board has communicated that it has no intention of adopting a poison pill at this time and, if it were to consider adoption of a full or limited stockholder rights plan, the Board would seek stockholder ratification within 12 months of the date of adoption.

Our Bylaws can be found on the Company's website at *www.lockheedmartin.com/corporate-governance*.

**We seek out and act on investor inputs**

We engage year-round with our investors to understand their views and priorities. Our investor discussions during 2025, and the 2025 stockholder votes yielded valuable feedback that informed the Board's deliberations. We look forward to continued engagement with our stockholders to understand, learn from and respond to their expectations.

**Board Oversight of Risk**

The Board and its committees undertake an integrated approach to overseeing the Company's business through a risk- and opportunity-focused lens that balances near- and long-term priorities. Core Board responsibilities include assessing corporate risk tolerance and monitoring management's processes for identifying and mitigating risks to ensure the Company's risk exposure is consistent with its strategic objectives. All of our directors have risk management expertise. The Board relies on a sophisticated risk management model and receives regular reports from committees and management covering risks.

**Our risk management process drives risk-informed decision making**

Our Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) function, is designed to (i) provide assurance that key strategic, operational and growth risks are identified and effectively managed; (ii) support the development and implementation of sound risk management practices and risk-informed decision making; (iii) drive risk awareness across the Company; and (iv) create a sustainable risk-based culture. The ERM structure and process is outlined below.

![04_LMT_risk management.jpg](lmt-20260326_g38.jpg)

ERM manages risk through risk identification, assessment, controls and mitigation. The two primary components of the ERM process are an annual enterprise risk assessment and a biennial compliance risk assessment.

• **The enterprise risk assessment** is prepared annually with the engagement of over 1,700 leaders across the Company, including senior executives and internal audit. ERM uses the results of this engagement to prepare an enterprise risk matrix focusing on the top identified risks, and assigns risk owners and recommended mitigation approaches, which are then tracked. The risks assessed are generally ones that could materialize over a one-to-three-year horizon. We also monitor emerging risks, sourced from internal sources, industry benchmarks and external risk management entities.

• **The compliance risk assessment** is conducted every two years and includes a survey of approximately 800 subject matter experts. The assessment focuses on specialized areas of compliance and sustainability topics, whereas the enterprise risk assessment encompasses strategic and operational risks.

The Risk and Compliance Committee and the Integrated Risk Council, which are detailed below, review and approve the outcome of both assessments and their recommended mitigation actions. Subsequently, the results, which inform our public disclosures, are reported to the Audit Committee.

Risk management is built into decision-making processes at all levels across the Company. We view ERM as inextricably linked with our internal control environment and, as such, there is an overarching policy that covers both internal control and ERM. We also have other key processes designed to reduce risk, including executive proposal reviews, disclosure controls committee risk reviews and comprehensive external and internal audit processes.

• The Board believes that the Company's commitment to respecting human rights is an essential element of the Company's long-term success, underlying our Code of Conduct, overseen by the Governance Committee, and our Core Values. This commitment is embodied in our human rights policy, available on our website, and applies to all employees, the Board and others who represent or act for us. We expect our suppliers to adhere to our Supplier Code of Conduct, which draws from our Code of Conduct and emphasizes our expectation of respect for human rights.

• Our human rights due diligence processes are embedded within our operating and decision-making practices and procedures and guided by U.S. Government laws, regulations and policies.

• Our robust trade compliance program is designed to ensure that sales of our products are conducted in accordance with all international trade laws and regulations of the United States and each foreign country in which we operate.

• Our employees engage in mandatory training, including training on combating human trafficking, and have access to trusted grievance and reporting mechanisms. We also provide resources and support to our suppliers. These actions align the interests of employees and suppliers within established frameworks to enable oversight of our standards and controls.

• Our international military sales are regulated by the U.S. Government and reviewed and approved by the Executive Branch and subject to Congressional oversight. This includes consideration of whether any arms transfer contributes to the risk of human rights abuses and whether they are being used in potential conflict-affected regions.

• Additionally, in the Foreign Military Sales process, through which we generate the majority of our international sales, the Executive Branch reviews use of our products by non-U.S. customers for compliance with applicable U.S. laws, including the Arms Export Control Act.

**Board Strategic Oversight**

**The Board takes an active role in overseeing strategic planning**

The cornerstone of the Board's strategic planning oversight is an annual session dedicated to a discussion of the Company's strategy and corresponding financial considerations, giving the Board the opportunity to provide input while the multi-year long-range plan is being developed and to monitor progress on the plan. The Chairman, President and CEO regularly reviews developments against the Company's strategic framework at Board meetings and provides needed updates between regularly-scheduled sessions, and the COO and CFO similarly share updates and solicit input on the Company's operational and financial performance against our strategic framework and annual and long-range plans. In addition, the Board and/or its committees:

• Review the progress and challenges to the Company's strategy and approve specific initiatives, including investments, acquisitions, divestitures and capital expenditures over a certain monetary threshold;

• Regularly review items of strategic interest, such as the Company's people strategy and AI; and

• Meet with senior management on a rotating basis, including business segment presidents who present to the Board, and business segment chief financial officers who present to the Audit Committee.

**The Board discusses management succession planning regularly** 

Our Board is actively engaged in management succession planning and views CEO succession planning as one of its core responsibilities. The Board regularly reviews our succession strategy and leadership pipeline for key roles, taking into account the Company's long-term strategy. CEO succession planning discussions are led by the independent Lead Director, and the Board members have direct access to and interaction with members of senior management and high-potential future leaders. The Board of Directors maintains a succession plan for the CEO and other key members of management and has a contingency plan if the CEO were to depart unexpectedly. Company policy imposes a mandatory retirement age of 65 for all executive officers other than the CEO. The CEO's tenure is at the discretion of the independent members of the Board.

**Our people strategy is an integral part of our business strategy**

The Board understands that our workforce is a critical asset integral to the Company's business strategy. Due to the specialized nature of our business, our performance depends on identifying, attracting, developing, motivating and retaining a highly skilled workforce in multiple areas, including engineering, science, manufacturing, artificial intelligence, software development, information technology, cybersecurity, business development, strategy and management. The Board oversees the Company's people strategy in several ways, including:

• **Receiving briefings from the Senior Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer** on the Company's people strategy, including measures used to manage our workforce such as critical skills, attrition, hiring, promotions, leadership development and talent management, and results from our employee engagement surveys where we obtain feedback and insight directly from our workforce; and

• **Engaging with senior executives and high-potential talent** as part of its talent development and succession planning efforts.

**Our Company builds high-performing teams**

Our mission-critical work demands high performing teams. We believe that the highest levels of performance are achieved when employees connect with our customers' missions, embrace a growth mindset to evolve our business and culture, possess and grow the technical skills needed to be competitive and foster a respectful and collaborative culture. We are intentional about building high-performing teams and we provide tailored education and engagement programs for our global workforce.

Employee satisfaction is essential to attracting and retaining top talent and building high-performing teams, and we regularly conduct employee engagement surveys to gauge employee satisfaction and to understand the effectiveness of our people strategy and assess employees' intent to stay. We attract and reward our employees by providing market-competitive compensation and benefits, including incentives and recognition plans that extend to non-represented employees of all levels in our organization, and encourage excellence through our pay-for-performance philosophy. We invest in the development of our employees through training, apprenticeship programs, security clearance sponsorship, leadership development plans and tuition assistance programs for continuing education or industry certifications. We believe this employee development makes us more competitive and assists with leadership succession planning throughout the Company. We also monitor employee attrition across our employee population and take action based on the insights we gain from that monitoring process.

**Board Sustainability Oversight** 

The Governance Committee is primarily responsible for the Board's oversight of the Company's sustainability efforts.

**We integrate sustainability governance through a risk-management lens**

We have a long-standing sustainability program built around fostering innovation, integrity and security across our platforms and services to strengthen communities, steward the environment and grow responsibly. We take an integrated approach to managing corporate culture, ethics and business integrity, governance and sustainability issues through a risk-management lens. Our formal sustainability governance structure, depicted below, is responsible for guiding and implementing our sustainability efforts.

**Our comprehensive sustainability management plan creates value** 

Our 2025 Sustainability Management Plan (SMP), developed through an extensive materiality assessment using stakeholder input and industry trends and released in 2020, defines our sustainability goals and drives our progress toward them. As depicted below, the 2025 SMP is centered around four strategic priorities, each of which has subsidiary core issues. The 2025 SMP includes goals and key performance indicators (KPIs) established for each core issue that reflect stakeholder feedback, internal and external trends, and the continued evolution of our business to create value well into the future. These metrics help focus our efforts in the areas that provide value to our stakeholders and our business. We comprehensively report our progress annually in our Sustainability Performance Report and will report final performance against our 2025 SMP in our 2025 Sustainability Performance Report, which will be released in mid-2026. We have developed robust processes to monitor emerging issues and continue to evolve our sustainability efforts between our formal five-year assessments.

|:---|:---|
| ![04_PRO013498_gfx_SMP.jpg](lmt-20260326_g43.jpg) | In 2025, we finalized our latest materiality assessment that engaged more than 8,000 internal and external stakeholders. The process identified, refined and narrowed the material sustainability issues considered most critical to our business and stakeholders from a financial, risk and impact perspective. We look forward to sharing our new set of goals, as defined in our 2030 SMP, on our website in mid-2026. |

**Director Nomination Process**

**Our Board's nomination and selection process is rigorous and dynamic**

Our Board seeks a dynamic boardroom culture that encourages independent thought and intelligent debate on critical matters to achieve a higher level of success for the Company and its stockholders. Achieving this goal requires the right mix of people who bring different perspectives, business and professional experiences, and competencies, as well as professional integrity, sound judgment and collegiality, and who will expand or complement the Board's existing expertise in overseeing a global security and aerospace company. As part of the Board's continuous refreshment process, we maintain a robust pipeline of director candidates who we are actively evaluating. Given the complex needs and circumstances of our business and resulting needs of our Board, including the importance of considering candidates with knowledge of our key customers and classified business and security credentials, our refreshment process requires time to identify and nominate the most suitable candidates.

| 1 | **Assess the Board's needs**<br>The Governance Committee and Board, as a whole, consider both the short- and long-term strategies of the Company to determine what current and future expertise and experiences are required of the Board in exercising its oversight function. Board succession planning is a topic at every meeting. |

**Our Board considers director tenure**

Refreshment over time is critical to ensuring that the Board maintains an appropriate balance of tenure, perspective, expertise and experience. The Board believes it is desirable to maintain a mix of longer-tenured, experienced directors who have developed increased knowledge and insight into the Company's operations, and newer directors with fresh perspectives and new ideas. Our Bylaws and Governance Guidelines provide that a director is not eligible to be renominated for election at the annual meeting following their 75<sup>th</sup> birthday unless the Board grants an exemption after considering the expertise, experience, background and perspectives of the director and their ongoing contributions to the Board. We do not have term limits for directors, as they can result in losing unnecessarily the contributions of experienced directors. Each director's continued service will be re-considered annually as part of the annual Board self-evaluation and nomination process.

**Director Commitments, Onboarding and Stock Ownership Guidelines**

**Our Board evaluates directors' other commitments**

The Board recognizes that its members benefit from service on the boards of other companies, and it encourages such service provided that directors dedicate sufficient time to their service on the Company's Board. Our Governance Guidelines include a policy limiting public company board service without obtaining the approval of the Governance Committee, as set forth below. The Governance Committee, as part of its annual director nomination process, evaluated the commitments of our director nominees and confirmed that all are compliant with this policy. The Governance Committee reviews this policy from time to time.

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**DIRECTORS**<br>A director may not serve on the boards of more than **4** public companies <br>(including Lockheed Martin) | &nbsp;&nbsp;**PUBLIC COMPANY CEO**<br>Active CEOs or equivalent may not serve on the boards of more than **3**<br>public companies (including Lockheed Martin) | &nbsp;&nbsp;**AUDIT COMMITTEE**<br>Audit Committee members may not serve on more than **3** public <br>company audit committees (including <br>Lockheed Martin) |

---

The Governance Committee also reviews new commitments or changes in responsibility that could potentially interfere with a director's ability to perform his or her duties and responsibilities, including conflicts of interest, independence or related person transactions, regulatory issues and time commitments. Directors should be expected to resign upon any significant change in principal employment or responsibilities, unless the Governance Committee approves their continued service.

**Our directors receive extensive onboarding and continuing education opportunities**

New directors are provided a comprehensive orientation about the Company, including our business operations, strategy and governance. New directors have one-on-one sessions with the CEO, the independent Lead Director and members of senior management. New Audit Committee members also have one-on-one sessions with the Company's independent auditors. Directors are encouraged to attend outside director continuing education programs to assist them in staying abreast of developments in corporate governance and critical issues relating to the operation of public company boards.

**We require directors to own a significant amount of Lockheed Martin stock**

To align their interests with our stockholders, non-employee directors have five years from the time they join the Board to achieve stock ownership levels (common stock or stock units) equivalent to five times their annual cash retainer. As of December 31, 2025, each non-employee director met the stock ownership guidelines or is on track to timely satisfy them. Mr. Taiclet, as CEO, is subject to the stock ownership requirements described in "Stock Ownership Requirements for Key Employees" on page [43](#ie3a2ce03cf8e42d8818b80e688ef7056_38057).

**Director Compensation**

Director compensation is an important tool used to attract and retain qualified directors and to address the time, effort, expertise and accountability required of active Board membership. The Governance Committee annually reviews publicly available data for the companies in the comparator group we use for benchmarking executive compensation disclosed in the "Compensation Discussion and Analysis" section (see page [33](#ie3a2ce03cf8e42d8818b80e688ef7056_38039)) and makes recommendations to the Board regarding compensation for non-employee directors.

Although the Governance Committee reviews director compensation annually, it has been the practice of the Governance Committee to recommend changes no more frequently than every two years, and, when making changes, to set compensation above the median with the expectation that compensation will decline relative to the median over the two year cycle. In 2025, Meridian Compensation Partners, acting as independent compensation consultant to the Governance Committee, assisted in its review of director compensation and best practices in director compensation design. Based upon that review and the market data, the Board did not make any changes to director compensation in 2025. The last changes to director compensation were approved by the Board in September 2022 and were effective January 1, 2023. Equity is granted once annually, and the cash retainers are paid in quarterly installments.

**Equity Compensation**

The annual equity retainer is paid in stock units under the Lockheed Martin Corporation Amended and Restated Directors Equity Plan (Directors Equity Plan). Except in certain circumstances, stock units vest 50 percent on June 30 and 50 percent on December 31 following the grant date. Stock units become fully vested upon a change in control or a director's retirement, death or disability. Vested stock units are distributed upon a director's termination of service, at the director's election, in whole shares of stock or in cash, and in a lump sum or in up to 20 annual installments. Prior to distribution, a director has no voting, dividend or other rights with respect to the stock units, but is credited with additional stock units representing dividend equivalents as they are accrued.

A director who has satisfied the Board's stock ownership guidelines may elect to have their annual award of stock units (together with any dividend equivalents thereon) paid in a lump sum in whole shares of stock or in cash on the first business day of April following the first anniversary of the grant date. Any director who has not elected early payments or has not satisfied the stock ownership guidelines will have vested stock units paid (along with any accumulated dividend equivalents) upon termination or retirement from the Board. Pursuant to a June 2014 Board resolution, each non-employee director must receive the annual equity retainer in the form of stock units.

**Deferred Compensation**

Non-employee directors may defer the cash portion of their fees under the Lockheed Martin Corporation Directors Deferred Compensation Plan (Directors Deferred Compensation Plan). At the director's election, deferred amounts track the performance of: (i) the investment options available under the Salaried Savings Plan, the qualified savings plan for employees, or (ii) our common stock (with dividends reinvested). Deferred amounts are distributed in a lump sum or in up to 15 annual installments commencing at a time designated by the director following termination of service.

| **Proposal 2: Advisory Vote to Approve the Compensation of our Named Executive Officers (Say-on-Pay)** | ![icon_checkmark (Green).jpg](lmt-20260326_g3.jpg) | The Board recommends a vote **FOR** this proposal |

---

As required by Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, we ask our stockholders to vote annually to approve, on an advisory (non-binding) basis, the compensation of our named executive officers (NEOs) as described in detail in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis (CD&A) and the accompanying tables in the Executive Compensation section of this Proxy Statement. This vote is commonly known as Say-on-Pay.

Stockholders should review the entire Proxy Statement including, in particular, the CD&A beginning on page [29](#ia14c0e659159437e9ced17e574c77cdc_205) and the Summary Compensation Table and other executive compensation information and tables beginning on page [45](#ia14c0e659159437e9ced17e574c77cdc_211), for information on our executive compensation programs and other important items.

We believe that the information provided in this Proxy Statement demonstrates that our executive compensation programs are designed to link pay to performance. Accordingly, the Board recommends that stockholders approve the compensation of our NEOs by approving the following Say-on-Pay resolution:

RESOLVED, that the stockholders of Lockheed Martin Corporation approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the named executive officers identified in the "Summary Compensation Table," as disclosed in the Lockheed Martin Corporation 2026 Proxy Statement pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the compensation tables and the accompanying footnotes and narratives. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather our overall compensation policies and procedures related to the NEOs. Although the results of the Say-on-Pay vote do not bind the Company, the Board will, as it does each year, continue to review the results carefully and plans to continue to seek the views of our stockholders throughout the year.

**Compensation Committee Report**

The Management Development and Compensation Committee makes recommendations to the Board of Directors concerning the compensation of the Company's NEOs. We have reviewed and discussed with management the Compensation Discussion and Analysis that will be included in the Company's Schedule 14A Proxy Statement, filed pursuant to Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on that review and discussion, we recommended to the Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in the Proxy Statement. The Board approved our recommendation.

**2025 Performance & Incentives Summary** 

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| 2025 was a year of unprecedented demand for Lockheed Martin's advanced, integrated capabilities. We delivered solid financial results, including sales of approximately $75.0 billion, segment operating profit of $6.7 billion, free cash flow of $6.9 billion and ended the year with a record backlog of $194.0 billion with strong orders from both domestic and international customers.<br>Consistent with the Company's pay-for-performance philosophy, our results are reflected in the annual and long-term incentive outcomes shown. From a financial perspective, despite the impact of losses recognized on certain classified programs within the Aeronautics and Missiles and Fire Control business segments, which adversely affected segment operating profit performance, performance across other areas of the business reflected the strong demand and execution across our portfolio.<br>During 2025, we achieved several notable operational and technology milestones that demonstrate the application of these priorities. Production and sustainment increased across Aeronautics, Missiles and Fire Control, Rotary and Mission Systems, and Space, including on key programs such as F-35, PAC-3, JASSM/LRASM, HIMARS, CH-53K, and strategic missile defense programs. One of many innovative highlights includes the X-59 Quiet Supersonic Technology (QueSST) aircraft, which completed key flight milestones, advancing low-boom supersonic capability and supporting NASA's mission to enable future supersonic flight over land. We also continued to mature operational autonomy across air, ground and rotary platforms, demonstrating mission-relevant capabilities designed to enhance survivability and operational flexibility while reducing risk to personnel.<br>Overall, our 2025 performance reflects a continued focus on execution, delivery reliability, and mission outcomes in support of the United States warfighter and its allies. In 2026, we are significantly increasing our investments while maintaining our historical practice of using a disciplined and dynamic approach to capital allocation.  | **2025 Financial Performance** | **2025 Financial Performance** | **2025 Financial Performance** | **2025 Financial Performance** |

**Compensation Overview**

Our executive compensation programs covering our NEOs are designed to attract and retain critical executive talent, to motivate behaviors that align with stockholders' interests and to pay for performance. The Compensation Committee also considers experience, performance and value in role when setting target compensation levels for our NEOs, while allowing incentive payouts to exceed or fall below the target levels based upon actual performance.

RSUs will cliff-vest after three years, while the payout of PSUs and LTIP will be based upon our results at the end of the three-year performance period relative to the three-year performance goals that were established in the beginning of 2025. <br>**Benefit and Retirement Plans.** Mr. Taiclet is eligible for benefit and retirement programs, similar to other salaried employees.

**How We Determine Market Rate Compensation**

For each of the principal elements of executive compensation, we define the "market rate" as the size-adjusted 50<sup>th</sup> percentile of our comparator group of companies. Size-adjusted market rates are calculated for us by Aon, using revenue regression analysis. This statistical technique accounts for revenue size differences within the peer group and results in a market rate for all compensation elements consistent with our revenue relationship to our peers. We also may adjust the market rate to reflect differences in an executive's job scope relative to the industry or the comparator group of companies, as appropriate.

Our NEOs' target compensation for 2025 was closely aligned to the market rate. When determining pay for our NEOs, the Compensation Committee considers the current market data in combination with other internal factors when setting annual target pay levels, such as changes to market data year-over-year, internal pay equity, individual performance, job scope and criticality to the Company.

Our incentive plans are designed so that actual performance in excess of established performance targets results in payouts above target and actual performance below established performance targets results in payouts below target or no payout.

**How We Select the Comparator Group for Market Rate Purposes**

The Compensation Committee annually reviews our comparator group to maintain relevancy and to ensure the availability of data, while seeking to avoid significant annual changes in the group to ensure a level of consistency. The criteria used to determine the comparator group is set forth below:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Set an Initial List of Companies**<br>**Attributes**<br>• Traded on a major U.S. exchange<br>• Similarity in annual revenue<br>• Participation in Aon executive compensation survey | ![icon_1.jpg](lmt-20260326_g90.jpg) | **Apply Refining Criteria to Select Final Comparator Group**<br>**Refining Criteria**<br>• Industrial companies that face similar macro-economic pressures<br>• Companies we compete with for executive talent <br>• Companies with comparable executive officer positions |

---

The comparator group data presented to and considered by the Compensation Committee was developed from the proprietary results of the Aon executive compensation survey, subject to review by Meridian. For 2025, Dow Inc. was removed from the comparator group as it no longer participates in the Aon Benchmarking Survey. GE Aerospace was maintained in the comparator group after the completion of the GE Healthcare/Vernova spin-offs. Two new companies, Verizon and Dell Technologies, were added. Our 2025 revenues represented the 65<sup>th</sup> percentile of the comparator group.

**Leadership Transitions**

As mentioned above, there were two key senior leadership changes during 2025.

Mr. Scott was appointed Chief Financial Officer effective April 17, 2025. Target compensation for Mr. Scott was set based on the market rate associated with the Chief Financial Officer role and did not include any special or one-time awards.

Mr. O'Connor was appointed Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary effective January 13, 2025. Upon his termination of employment with his prior employer, Mr. O'Connor forfeited annual and LTI awards. To offset the value of these awards, Mr. O'Connor received compensation as follows: a $600,000 cash sign-on bonus, primarily to offset his forfeited 2024 annual incentive payout, and an approximately $11 million LTI grant, $7M of which was to offset his forfeited LTI awards. Considering the economic value and vesting schedules of his forfeited LTI awards, the $7 million new hire grant was comprised of time-based RSUs with three-year ratable vesting with the remaining $4 million constituting his 2025 annual grant using the same mix and terms as other NEOs described below.

**2025 Compensation Elements**

Our compensation programs are designed to provide a mix of short- and long-term compensation, fixed and variable pay and cash and equity-based compensation, as well as to reflect our philosophy of providing pay for performance. Benefit, retirement and perquisite programs are not included in our compensation elements below (information about these programs can be found later in the CD&A).

**Base Salary**

Base salaries are reviewed annually taking into account the market rate (50<sup>th</sup> percentile), the executive's individual performance and internal pay equity.

**2025 Annual Incentive**

The 2025 annual incentive plan for our CEO, other NEOs and all other officers elected by the Board was based 70% on financial goals and 30% on strategic and operational goals measured at the enterprise level, as illustrated in the graphic below. Although the annual incentive plan uses a formulaic approach, the Compensation Committee retains discretion in administering the plan, which discretion includes choosing and approving goals, assessing strategic and operational results and modifying payouts based on business segment and individual performance for any officer elected by the Board, including the NEOs. The Compensation Committee did not exercise any discretion in modifying payouts for the NEOs in 2025.

![pg45_payout.jpg](lmt-20260326_g92.jpg)

Under the terms of our annual incentive plan, the CEO's annual incentive and the annual incentive for each of the other NEOs cannot exceed 0.3% and 0.2%, respectively, of Cash from Operations. Annual incentive payouts range from 0% to 200% of target.

**2025 Annual Incentive Goals and Results** 

At its February 2025 meeting, the Compensation Committee approved enterprise-wide objectives for 2025 reflecting financial and strategic and operational goals. These goals are used as the Enterprise Component for all executives in the Company and serve as the only goals for the CEO, NEOs and all other officers elected by the Board.

**Financial Assessment (70% Weight).** The financial metrics used in the 2025 annual incentive plan were Sales, Segment Operating Profit and Free Cash Flow. The target (100%) payout levels for each metric aligned with the annual financial outlook we disclosed publicly in January 2025. As required by a Compensation Committee resolution adopted in February 2025, the Compensation Committee makes certain adjustments to Free Cash Flow and Segment Operating Profit when calculating incentive compensation so that annual incentive payouts would not be positively or negatively impacted by specified events that would result in a difference between planned and actual financial results. For 2025 and consistent with prior years, the Compensation Committee approved adjustments per its resolution, which only impacted Free Cash Flow and did not relate to our performance or program losses. See Appendix A for a description of these potential adjustments and actual adjustments for 2025. As reflected below and in alignment with our pay for performance philosophy, Segment Operating Profit was primarily impacted by program losses recognized in the second quarter, which reduced the payout for this measure from above target to 0% because the result was below the threshold performance required to generate a payout. This table sets out the 2025 annual incentive financial goals, results, weighting and payout approved by the Compensation Committee:

**Strategic & Operational Assessment (30% Weight).** At the start of 2025, the Compensation Committee established a broad set of strategic and operational goals aligned to the Company's priorities. These strategic and operational goals are both quantitative and qualitative in nature and measured against pre-established criteria using a scorecard approach. When determining the payout factor, the Compensation Committee considers the Company's results and evaluates performance in totality. Our overall strategic and operational performance was strong across the enterprise and exceeded our goals in multiple areas. The Compensation Committee determined a 140% payout factor to recognize the Company's strong operational performance in a highly competitive environment while undertaking and executing major strategic initiatives. Key accomplishments are highlighted below.

• Record year-end backlog of $194 billion

• Exceptional performance in Mission Success, 1LMX Progress and Adoption, Model-Based Enterprise Adoption, and OneLM Culture

• Exceeded internal cost-takeout goal and continued targeted investment in digital engineering, manufacturing, and infrastructure to support scalable execution

• Exceptional performance in supply chain growth, including abroad

• Significantly exceeded 21st Century Security Demo outcome goals and subsequent conversions to R&D

• Expanded production and delivery across missile defense and precision strike programs in response to elevated global demand

• Continued strong performance in safety, cyber and environmental stewardship

**Summary of Annual Incentive Payout Calculations**

The final payout factor, as determined by the Board, is shown below.

In determining the appropriate level of equity grants for 2025, the Compensation Committee took into consideration the long-term incentive market rate (50<sup>th</sup> percentile) along with a variety of other factors, including the number of awards outstanding and shares remaining available for issuance under the Company's equity incentive plan, the number of shares that would be issued under contemplated awards over the range of potential performance achievement, the total number of the Company's outstanding shares, the resulting implications for stockholder dilution and the number of shares granted to our executives year-over-year.

| ![itip-p22.jpg](lmt-20260326_g97.jpg) |  |

---

PSU awards generally are calculated by multiplying the overall target LTI award value (as shown in the table on page [34](#ie3a2ce03cf8e42d8818b80e688ef7056_204410)) by the 50% weighting assigned to the PSU portion. The number of PSUs granted is determined based on the closing stock price of the Company's common stock on the NYSE on the date of grant. Each NEO's PSU target number of shares is determined as of the grant date of the award, and the actual number of shares earned at the end of the period is calculated based on our performance measured against the three financial metrics as follows: 50% Relative TSR, 25% Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) and 25% Free Cash Flow.

The number of shares granted at the end of the cycle can range from 0% to 200% of the applicable target number of shares. If absolute TSR is negative at the end of the performance cycle, the payout factor for the Relative TSR measure is capped at 100%. In addition, the maximum value that can be earned under a PSU award is 400% of the stock price on the date of grant times the shares earned. The award calculation is formulaic pursuant to the provisions of the award agreement, and no discretion can be applied to the final number of shares granted, which is determined based on the performance outcomes relative to our pre-set goals. Deferred dividend equivalents are accrued during the vesting period and paid on earned shares in cash following vesting of the underlying shares.

LTIP awards are cash-based and generally are calculated by multiplying the overall target LTI award value (as shown in the table on page [34](#ie3a2ce03cf8e42d8818b80e688ef7056_204410)) by the 20% weighting assigned to the LTIP portion. Each NEO's LTIP target is determined at the time of grant, and the actual award earned at the end of the three-year performance period is calculated based on the same performance measures as those used for the PSUs (50% Relative TSR, 25% ROIC and 25% Free Cash Flow).

Payouts can range from 0% to 200% of the applicable target. If absolute TSR is negative at the end of the performance cycle, the payout factor for the Relative TSR measure is capped at 100%. The award calculation is formulaic pursuant to the provisions defined in the award agreement, and no discretion can be applied to the final payout factor, which is determined based on the performance outcomes relative to our pre-set goals. Any amount payable to a single participant in excess of $10 million will be forfeited.

**Selection of LTI Performance Measures**

The Compensation Committee sets LTI performance metrics that it believes effectively support our long-term business and strategic goals and directly tie the long-term focus of our executive leadership team to the interests of our stockholders. For 2025, those metrics of Relative TSR (50% weight), ROIC (25% weight) and Free Cash Flow (25% weight) represented good measures of value creation for the Company at the time the metrics were selected.

In 2025, the Compensation Committee approved the use of two Relative TSR peer groups weighted equally, our Aerospace and Defense peers and the S&P 500 Index.

The A&D Relative TSR Comparators for the 2025-2027 performance cycle are shown below:

**2025-2027 A&D Relative TSR Comparators** <br>

|:---|:---|:---|

| &nbsp;&nbsp;GE Aerospace | &nbsp;&nbsp;Northrop Grumman Corporation | &nbsp;&nbsp;The Boeing Company |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;General Dynamics Corporation | &nbsp;&nbsp;RTX Corporation | &nbsp;&nbsp;TransDigm Group Incorporated |

---

Because the Relative TSR comparator group is not perfectly aligned with the businesses in which Lockheed Martin operates and because any number of macro-economic factors that could affect market performance are beyond the control of the Company, we consistently apply a cash-related metric to measure investment and long-term value creation, while mitigating the risk of short-term cash strategies that do not create long-term value.

**Setting Performance Goals for PSUs and LTIP**

Our long-range planning process is used to establish the target (100% level of payment) for the Free Cash Flow and ROIC metrics in the PSU and LTIP grants. In setting minimum and maximum levels of payment, we reviewed historical levels of performance against long-range plan commitments, and conducted sensitivity analyses on alternative outcomes focused on identifying likely minimum and maximum boundary performance levels. Levels between 100% and the minimum and maximum levels were derived using linear interpolation between the performance hurdles.

The specific Free Cash Flow and ROIC target values for the 2025-2027 PSU and LTIP grants were not publicly disclosed at the time of grant due to the proprietary nature and competitive sensitivity of that information. However, the method used to calculate the awards will be based on actual performance compared to the Company's 2025-2027 targets, which uses linear interpolation between points.

The individual award agreements require certain adjustments to Free Cash Flow and ROIC so that the ultimate payouts are not impacted to the benefit or detriment of management by specified events that would result in a difference between planned and actual financial results. See Appendix A for more information on these potential adjustments and actual adjustments for the 2023-2025 award cycle.

The Compensation Committee does not have discretion to adjust the results of the PSU and LTIP awards beyond the adjustments specified in the award agreements.

\*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2025-2027 Relative TSR performance is measured against our Aerospace & Defense peers (50%) and the S&P 500 Index (50%) (See "Selection of LTI Performance Measures" above for Relative TSR Comparators).

**2023-2025 LTIP and PSU Awards**

The cash-based LTIP and share-based PSU payouts for the three-year performance period ended December 31, 2025 shown below were calculated by comparing actual corporate performance for each metric for the period January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2025, against payment levels from 0% to 200% (with the 100% payout level being considered target) established at the beginning of the performance period in February 2023. The Compensation Committee, per the LTIP and PSU award agreements, considered adjustments to the calculated results to neutralize the impact of certain items to ensure they do not affect payouts to a participant's benefit or detriment. The Compensation Committee approved adjustments to Free Cash Flow and ROIC for the favorable tax impacts from the OBBB, to Free Cash Flow for unplanned pension contributions (net of tax) and tariffs and to ROIC for unplanned debt issuances, a non-operating pension settlement charge, a prior year change in interpretation of the law related to an uncertain tax position and a prior year loss on a specific strategic program.

For the 2023-2025 cycle, our Relative TSR performance, compared against the peer group disclosed in our 2024 Proxy Statement, was below threshold and did not generate a payout. Free Cash Flow result was above-target and ROIC result was below target. After applying the approved adjustments, these performance outcomes yielded a 47% of target overall payout.

\*\*\* Mr. O'Connor did not receive 2023 - 2025 LTI awards because he was not employed on the grant date of those awards.

**2026 Compensation Design Changes** 

In February 2026, the Compensation Committee approved the target compensation opportunities for the Company's executive officers for the 2026 performance year. In connection with this review, the Committee approved several updates to the design of the Company's annual and long-term incentive programs to ensure the continued alignment of executive compensation with the Company's strategic priorities, including operational excellence, customer expectations including as set forth in the January 7, 2026 Executive Order (Prioritizing the Warfighter in Defense Contracting), and sustainable long-term value creation.

For 2026, the Committee approved changes to the weighting and composition of performance measures under the annual incentive program. Financial goals will represent 50% and the Strategic and Operational goals will represent 50% of the annual incentive, compared to 70% and 30%, respectively. These changes are intended to better balance financial outcomes with customer-focused performance outcomes, including on-time delivery, production speed and quality, and overall operational excellence. The Committee also approved replacing Free Cash Flow with Cash from Operations, reflecting a continued emphasis on operational performance and cash generation aligned with day-to-day performance of the company.

In addition, the Committee approved changes to LTI awards for 2026, while maintaining the performance-based orientation of the program. Capital deployment will continue to be imperative for the Company and management will remain focused on investment decisions that create long-term stockholder value, which are sometimes not anticipated in our 3-year long range plan tied to our long-term incentives. The proposed measures better correspond to priorities around backlog conversion, enhance line of sight for all executives and align to stockholder interests. For the Company's named executive officers, 70% of LTI compensation will continue to be performance-based and encompass the following changes:

• Replace the cash-based LTIP award with PSUs, resulting in an LTI mix of 70% PSUs and 30% RSUs which will still cliff-vest after 3 years.

• The performance measures and weightings will be Relative TSR (30%), Sales (30%), and Cash from Operations (40%), replacing the prior metrics.

• In addition, there will be a +/- 25% award modifier applicable to PSU awards, based on the Committee's assessment of Company performance against customer-focused strategic and operational objectives measured over the three-year performance cycle.

The Committee believes this revised design strengthens alignment between long-term executive compensation and sustained operational and financial performance. The Committee approved these changes to incorporate objectives of the U.S. Government and its allies, which are foundational to the Company's operating model. As the Company and the industry face a period of transformation, the Committee believes these changes reinforce our commitment to excellence to our customers and stockholders, including agility, increased capacity, production and resiliency.

**Other Compensation Matters**

**Our Use of Independent Compensation Consultants**

The independent compensation consultant provides important information about market practices, the types and amounts of compensation offered to executives generally and the role of corporate governance considerations in making compensation decisions. The Compensation Committee's charter authorizes it to retain outside advisors that it believes are appropriate to assist in evaluating executive compensation.

For 2025, the Compensation Committee continued to retain Meridian as an independent compensation consultant. When retaining Meridian, the Compensation Committee considered the following factors in assessing Meridian's independence:

• Meridian's services for the Company are limited to executive and director compensation.

• The compensation paid to Meridian is less than 1% of Meridian's revenues.

• Meridian has business ethics and insider trading and stock ownership policies, which are designed to avoid conflicts of interest.

• Meridian employees supporting the engagement and their immediate family members do not own Lockheed Martin securities.

• Meridian employees supporting the engagement have no business or personal relationships with members of the Compensation Committee or with any Lockheed Martin executive officer.

At its February 2026 meeting, the Compensation Committee renewed the engagement of Meridian. At that time, Meridian confirmed the continuing accuracy of each of the factors described above.

The nature and scope of Meridian's engagement was determined by the Compensation Committee and not limited in any way by management.

**Policy Regarding Timing of Equity Grants**

We have a corporate policy concerning the grant of equity awards. Under that policy:

• The Compensation Committee is responsible for determining the grant date of all equity awards to executive officers.

• Annual equity awards for executive officers are generally presented to the Compensation Committee and granted in February of each year.

• Neither the timing of equity awards nor the timing of release of material nonpublic information about the Company may be influenced with the intent of improperly benefiting any awardee.

• No equity award may be backdated. A future date may be used if, among other reasons, the Compensation Committee's action occurs in proximity to the release of earnings or during a trading blackout period to allow at least one business day to elapse after the date of the release of earnings or other material information.

• Equity plans explicitly prohibit repricing of stock options or paying cash for underwater stock options. The Company has not granted employee stock options since 2012.

• Off-cycle awards may be considered in special circumstances, which may include hiring, retention or acquisition transactions.

**Clawback and Other Protective Provisions**

In 2023, the Board adopted a mandatory clawback policy that implemented the new SEC and NYSE mandatory clawback rules. As stipulated in our Governance Guidelines, the policy requires the Company to recover from its executive officers certain incentive-based compensation that is erroneously paid in connection with an accounting restatement. The Compensation Committee administers this mandatory clawback policy.

Notably, our pre-existing clawback policy remains in our Governance Guidelines as a supplemental policy and continues to provide that if the Board of Directors determines that (i) an officer's intentional misconduct, gross negligence or failure to report such acts by another person is a contributing factor in requiring us to restate any of our financial statements or constituted fraud, bribery or another illegal act (or contributed to another person's fraud, bribery or other illegal act) that adversely impacts our financial position or reputation; (ii) an officer's intentional misconduct or gross negligence causes severe reputational or financial harm to the Company; or (iii) an officer's misappropriation of Lockheed Martin Proprietary Information (as defined in the policy) causes, or is intended to cause, severe reputational or financial harm to the Company, then the Board shall take such action as it deems in the best interest of the Company and necessary to remedy the misconduct and prevent its recurrence. Among other actions, the Board may seek to recover or require reimbursement of amounts awarded to the officer in the form of an annual incentive or LTI award.

This supplemental clawback policy is incorporated into our annual incentive plan and in the award agreements for the long-term incentive awards, covering all variable incentive compensation. There were no events requiring Board consideration of a clawback action during 2025 under either clawback policy.<sup>3</sup> If the Board recoups incentive compensation under either policy, management intends to disclose the aggregate amount of incentive compensation recovered, so long as the underlying event has already been publicly disclosed in our filings with the SEC. This disclosure would appear in the proxy statement following any such Board action and would provide the aggregate amount of recovery for each event if there is more than one applicable event. All executive-level award agreements also contain post-employment restrictive covenants, and compensation awarded under those agreements may be subject to clawback in the event an executive breaches any of the post-employment restrictive covenants.

**Insider Trading Policy**

We have adopted an insider trading policy governing the purchase, sale, and other disposition of our securities by our directors, officers, and employees, and by the Company. We believe our policy is reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules, and regulations and listing standards applicable to the Company. Among other things, our insider trading policy (i) prohibits trading by our directors, officers, and employees in our securities while in possession of material, non-public information about the Company or in the securities of other companies while in possession of material, non-public information about such companies gained as a result of their service with or relationship to the Company, and the unauthorized use or disclosure of such information, (ii) specifies our quarterly trading blackout periods (and the individuals subject to such blackout periods), (iii) sets forth additional restrictions applicable to our directors and executive officers (including pre-clearance requirements), and (iv) specifies requirements regarding pre-approved trading plans meeting the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. A copy of our insider trading policy is filed as Exhibit 19 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

**Anti-Hedging and Anti-Pledging Policy**

Our insider trading policy prohibits hedging and pledging of Lockheed Martin stock by all directors, officers and employees. Under our policy, Lockheed Martin directors, officers and employees may not purchase or sell derivative securities based on Lockheed Martin common stock or other Lockheed Martin securities. This policy also prohibits hedging or monetization transactions such as forward-sale contracts, equity swaps, collars and exchange funds, that are designed to hedge or offset any decrease in the market value of equity securities, lock in then-current market gains without the sale of the underlying security, or transactions in which the director or employee may divest aspects of the risks and rewards of ownership. This policy applies to shares of Lockheed Martin common stock that are either (i) granted to directors, officers or employees by Lockheed Martin as part of their compensation or (ii) otherwise held, directly or indirectly, by directors, officers or employees.

<sup>3</sup> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The stock Mr. Malave received upon vesting of LTI awards granted to him in 2022 was clawed back pursuant to an agreement with Mr. Malave involving a release of claims.

**Stock Ownership Requirements for Key Employees**

To better align their interests with the long-term interests of our stockholders, we expect our officers (including the NEOs) and other members of management to maintain an ownership interest in the Company based on the following guidelines:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **6x**<br>base salary for CEO and Chairman | &nbsp;&nbsp;**4x**<br>base salary for Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer | &nbsp;&nbsp;**3x**<br>base salary for Business Segment Presidents | &nbsp;&nbsp;**2x**<br>base salary for Senior Vice Presidents and Elected Vice Presidents |

---

NEOs are required to achieve ownership levels within five years of assuming their role and must hold net shares from vested RSUs and PSUs until the value of the shares equals the specified multiple of base salary. The securities counted toward their respective target threshold include common stock, unvested RSUs and stock units under our 401(k) plans and other deferral plans. Unvested PSUs do not count towards the stock ownership requirement. As of December 31, 2025, each of our currently-employed NEOs met the required stock ownership threshold or is on track to timely meet such threshold. NEOs who are no longer executive officers as of December 31, 2025 are not included in the chart below.

![30306](lmt-20260326_g103.jpg)

**Benefit, Retirement and Perquisite Programs**

We offer other compensatory arrangements to our NEOs. The purpose for these benefits is to ensure security of executives, provide assistance with business-related expenses and be competitive with the other companies in our industry. Below is a summary of programs available to our NEOs. Further details are described in footnotes to the Summary Compensation Table on page [45](#ia14c0e659159437e9ced17e574c77cdc_211).

**Health, Welfare and Retirement Benefits.** Our NEOs are eligible for savings, pension, medical, disability and life insurance benefits under the plans available to salaried, non-union employees. We offer supplemental pension and savings plans to make up for benefits that otherwise would be unavailable due to Internal Revenue Service (IRS) limits on qualified plans. These plans are restorative and do not provide an enhanced benefit. We also offer a plan for the deferral of short-term and long-term cash performance incentive compensation. Pension and supplemental pension plans that certain NEOs participate in were completely frozen effective January 1, 2020. Messrs. Taiclet, O'Connor and Malave do not participate in any Company pension or supplemental pension plan.

**Perquisites and Security.** Perquisites provided to the NEOs include executive physicals, relocation assistance (when applicable), certain personal travel on the corporate aircraft, gifts for retirement or years of service milestones (when applicable), and home and personal security as needed to address security concerns arising out of our business.

The Board recognizes that the nature of our business requires heightened attention to the security of our executives and strongly believes that an employee should not be placed at personal risk due to his or her association with the Company. For well over a decade, our CEO and other senior executives have experienced, and continue to experience, direct security threats. The CBS Committee periodically reviews security recommendations from our Chief Security Officer and may authorize actions to respond to security risks and direct threats involving our executive officers. Our Chief Security Officer's recommendations are based on an ongoing assessment of the risk environment, which is informed, in part, by his interactions with law enforcement and other third party security resources. Our approach to executive security is necessarily dynamic in nature and aims to respond to the changing risk environment facing our executives. We believe that providing personal security in response to concerns arising out of employment by the Company is business related.

Based on these reviews and recommendations, our Board has taken reasonable and appropriate measures necessary to protect against these threats and mitigate the personal safety risks borne by our CEO and others. Among other precautions, our Board has required our CEO to use corporate aircraft while on business and personal travel and has authorized other NEOs to use corporate aircraft for personal travel depending on circumstances and availability. Furthermore, in 2025, in response to elevated risks and certain incidents, enhanced security measures were implemented to ensure the safety of our CEO and other NEOs. As a result, Mr. Taiclet's compensation for 2025 as reported in the Summary Compensation Table below includes (i) $1,399,731 for security and (ii) $866,601 for personal use of corporate aircraft. Our Board, informed by the recommendations of our Chief Security Officer, will continue to evaluate the security protocols for our CEO and other executives based on the evolving risk environment to determine whether any adjustments to security measures are appropriate.

**Tax Assistance.** We do not have agreements or severance arrangements that provide tax gross-ups for excise taxes imposed as a result of a change in control. In 2025, we provided tax assistance on taxable security expenses and travel expenses when a family member accompanies a NEO on business travel. In addition, we pay an amount estimated to cover the state income tax imposed on employees who became subject to income tax in a state other than their state of residence due to business travel. Tax assistance was provided for these items because the associated tax liability imposed on the executive would not have been incurred unless business reasons required the items to be provided or the executive to travel to the non-resident state. We do not provide tax assistance on personal use of the corporate aircraft.

**Post-Employment, Change in Control, Divestiture and Severance Benefits**

Our NEOs do not have individual employment or severance agreements, but participate in the Lockheed Martin Corporation Executive Severance Plan. Benefits are payable under this plan in the event of a Company-initiated termination of employment other than for cause. All currently-employed NEOs are covered under the plan. The benefit payable in a lump sum under the plan is a payment of one times the NEO's base salary plus the equivalent of one year's target annual incentive. For the CEO, the multiplier is 2.99 instead of one. NEOs participating in the plan also receive a lump sum payment to cover the cost of medical, dental and vision benefits for one year in addition to outplacement and relocation services. To receive the severance benefit, the NEO must execute a release of claims and an agreement containing post-employment, non-compete and non-solicitation covenants identical to those included in our NEOs' LTI award agreements.

With respect to LTI, upon certain terminations of employment, including death, disability, retirement, layoff, divestiture or a change in control, the NEOs may be eligible for continued or pro rata vesting on the normal schedule, immediate payment of benefits previously earned or accelerated vesting of LTI awards in full or on a pro rata basis. The type of event and the nature of the benefit determine which of these approaches will apply. The purpose of these provisions is to protect previously earned or granted benefits by making them available following the specified event. We view the vesting (or continued vesting) to be an important retention feature for senior-level employees. Because benefits paid at termination consist of previously granted or earned benefits, we do not consider termination benefits as a separate item in compensation decisions. Our LTI awards do not provide for tax assistance.

In the event of a change in control, our plans provide for the acceleration of the payment of the non-qualified portion of earned pension benefits and non-qualified deferred compensation. All LTI awards require a "double trigger" for vesting to accelerate (both a change in control and a qualifying termination of employment), unless the successor does not assume or continue the awards or provide substitute awards.

**Compensation and Risk**

The Company's executive and broad-based compensation programs are intended to promote decision-making that supports a pay for performance philosophy while mitigating risk by utilizing the following design features:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| • Balance of fixed and variable pay opportunities <br>• Multiple performance measures, multiple time periods and capped payouts under incentive plans <br>• Stock ownership requirements <br>• Risk oversight by independent Board committee <br>• Incentive goals set at the enterprise or business segment level <br>• Incentive plan caps on individual awards and pool size | • Moderate severance program that includes post-employment restrictive covenants<br>• Institutional focus on ethical behavior <br>• Annual risk assessment<br>• Compensation Committee oversight of equity burn rate and dilution<br>• Clawback policy<br>• Anti-hedging and pledging policy |

---

With the assistance of an annual risk assessment conducted by Meridian, the Compensation Committee concluded in 2025 that risks arising from our executive and broad-based incentive compensation programs are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

\*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Mr. Malave served as Chief Financial Officer from January 2022 to April 2025. In connection with his departure, Mr. Malave forfeited his right to annual incentive compensation for 2025 and all unvested long-term incentive (LTI) awards granted in 2023, 2024 and 2025.

<sup>(1)</sup> Information for Mr. Scott and Mr. O'Connor is provided only for 2025 because they were not NEOs in prior years.

<sup>(2)</sup> Salary is paid weekly in arrears. The amount reported may vary from the approved annual rate of pay because the salary reported in the table is based on the actual number of weekly pay periods in a year. Amounts for 2025 include payments of cash in lieu of vacation for Mr. St. John: $39,615 and Mr. Scott: $24,639.42; and a $18,025 payment for Mr. Scott in lieu of a merit increase due to Mr. Scott's base salary being at the maximum for his then-Vice President role.

<sup>(3)</sup> Reflects the first installment of Mr. O'Connor's cash sign-on bonus paid in 2025, which offset his forfeited 2024 annual incentive payout from his prior employer.

<sup>(4)</sup> Amounts reported in the **Stock Awards** column represent the aggregate grant date fair value computed in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718 (ASC 718) for RSUs and PSUs granted in 2025, 2024 and 2023, disregarding potential forfeitures based on service requirements.

Mr. Malave forfeited all unvested LTI awards granted in 2023, 2024, and 2025 upon his termination of employment.

The ASC 718 grant date fair value of one 2025 RSU of $439.42 represents the closing price of one share of our stock on the date of grant, discounted to take into account the deferred dividend equivalents that are accrued until vesting.

Values for the PSUs, which are subject to performance conditions, are based on the probable outcome on the grant date of three separate performance conditions (50% of the target shares are earned based upon Relative TSR, 25% of the target shares are earned based upon Free Cash Flow, and 25% of the target shares are earned based upon ROIC).

The grant date fair value of $453.06 for the Relative TSR portion of the PSU award was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The value was determined using the historical stock price volatilities of the companies in our comparator group over the most recent 2.84-year period assuming dividends for each company are reinvested on a continuous basis and a risk-free rate of interest of 4.00% and that deferred dividend equivalents accrued on shares earned will be paid in cash upon vesting. The grant date fair value of $439.42 for the Free Cash Flow and ROIC portions of the awards is based on the closing price of our stock on the date of grant, discounted to take into account the deferred dividend equivalents that are accrued until vesting. In addition to the level of performance achieved, the value of the PSUs earned will be determined by the price of our stock on the date any shares are issued at the end of the performance and vesting periods, which may be more or less than the grant date fair value.

The maximum grant date fair values of the 2025 PSU awards, using the Monte Carlo simulation model for the TSR metric and assuming a 200% maximum payout for the ROIC and Free Cash Flow metrics, are as follows: Mr. Taiclet: $12,822,201; Mr. Scott: $320,988; Mr. St. John: $5,053,682; Mr. Cahill: $3,395,013 and Mr. O'Connor: $3,017,207.

<sup>(5)</sup> Amounts reported in the **Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation** column represent (i) the annual incentive amounts paid under the amended and restated Lockheed Martin Corporation 2021 Management Incentive Compensation Plan (MICP), and (ii) the amounts earned under cashLTIP awards in the three-year period ending on December 31 of the year reported.

The table below shows the respective 2025 annual incentive payouts and the amount earned under the 2023-2025 cash LTIP and reported for each NEO:

<sup>(6)</sup> Amounts reported in the **Change in Pension Value and Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Earnings** column represent the change in the present value of the pension benefit for the NEO for the year reported and is not the amount that will be paid to the NEO. The increase in present value for 2025 was primarily driven by the decrease in the discount rate used in the present value calculation. There were no earnings on nonqualified deferred compensation to report for any NEOs for 2025, 2024 or 2023.

<sup>(7)</sup> The amounts reported in the **All Other Compensation** column include perquisites and other personal benefits provided to the NEOs in 2025 including: security; relocation benefits; annual executive physicals; home office support; use of corporate aircraft for personal travel and other related expenses; and travel and other expenses for a family member accompanying the NEO while on business travel. Not all of the listed perquisites or personal benefits were provided to each NEO. In addition, the Company made available a Company-provided car and driver for personal commuting to some of the NEOs in 2025 and may provide event tickets from time to time, but requires the NEOs to reimburse the Company for the incremental cost to the Company of such items. The cost of any category of the listed perquisites and personal benefits in 2025 did not exceed the greater of $25,000 or 10% of total perquisites and personal benefits for any NEO, except for: (i) security for Mr. Taiclet $1,399,731; Mr. Scott $39,105; Mr. St. John $70,480; Mr. Cahill $9,600 and Mr. O'Connor $14,038; (ii) personal use of the corporate aircraft for Mr. Taiclet $866,601; Mr. Scott $10,932; Mr. St. John $407,664; Mr. Cahill $13,327 and Mr. O'Connor $5,410; and (iii) relocation expenses for Mr. Cahill $26,186 and Mr. O'Connor $115,353. Incremental cost for use of corporate aircraft for personal travel was calculated based on the costs associated with personal flights (including fuel, landing and parking fees, incremental maintenance costs, staff travel expenses, catering and other variable costs, but excluding fixed capital costs for the aircraft, Company hangar facilities and staff salaries). Our Board has directed our CEO to use corporate aircraft for security reasons while on business and personal travel. The incremental cost for personal security is calculated based on billings for services and equipment from third parties and for overtime and related expenses where the services are provided by the Company's personnel. Given the nature of our business, additional security may be provided for travel in high-risk areas or to address particular situations. We believe that providing personal security in response to concerns arising out of employment by the Company is business related.

In addition to perquisites, the amounts in this column include the items of compensation listed in the following table. All items are paid under broad-based programs for U.S. salaried employees except for tax assistance and the match or Company contributions to the Company's nonqualified defined contribution plans (the Lockheed Martin Corporation Supplemental Savings Plan (NQSSP) and the Lockheed Martin Corporation Nonqualified Capital Accumulation Plan (NCAP)). Amounts under Matching Gift Programs include matching contributions made to non-profit organizations under the Lockheed Martin Political Action Committee (LMEPAC)'s charity match program in accordance with the LMEPAC's guidelines applicable to all contributors. Amounts under Company Contributions to Health Savings Accounts reflect the Company's annual contribution to the health savings accounts of all employees who have a high-deductible health insurance plan and additional wellness incentives available to all enrolled employees and spouses for completing specific wellness actions. Amounts under Term Life Insurance Opt-Out Credit reflect cash payments made to NEOs who opt out of the Company's broad-based employee term life insurance program, which option is available to all salaried employees of the Company. As permitted by SEC rules, the premium cost for the NEOs' participation in the Company's broad-based employee term life insurance has not been included.

In 2025, the Company provided tax assistance on taxable security expenses, non-resident state income taxes incurred because of business travel and travel expenses for a family member accompanying the NEO on travel determined to be business travel. Tax assistance was provided for these items because the associated tax liability imposed on the executive would not have been incurred unless business reasons required the items to be provided or the executive to travel to the non-resident state. For Mr. Taiclet, the total tax assistance amount reported for 2025 includes (i) a payment of $66,464.82 attributable to non-resident income taxes, which was incurred as a result of business travel to a state other than his state of residence, and (ii) $27,021.10 associated with security expenses. For Mr. St. John, the total tax assistance amount reported for 2025 includes (i) $15,507.74 associated with security expenses and (ii) $6,043.75 associated with travel expenses for a family member accompanying Mr. St. John on travel determined to be business travel.

<sup>(1)</sup> The amounts reported in the **Estimated Future Payouts Under Non-Equity Incentive Plan Awards** columns include annual incentive grants (MICP) for 2025 and LTIP grants for the 2025-2027 performance period ending December 31, 2027.

The MICP measures performance over a one-year period and is described under "2025 Annual Incentive" in the CD&A. The threshold, or minimum amount payable (assuming an award is earned), is 7% of target while the maximum is 200% of target.

The LTIP award measures performance against three separate metrics described under "2025 Long-Term Incentive Compensation" in the CD&A. The threshold is the minimum amount payable for a specified level of performance stated in the LTIP award agreement. For the 2025-2027 award, the threshold amount payable is 6.25% of the target award. The maximum award payable under the LTIP award is 200% of target value. Awards are subject to forfeiture upon termination of employment prior to the end of the performance period, except in the event of retirement or layoff occurring after six months from the date of grant or in the event of death, disability, or divestiture. In any of these events, LTIP awards are paid at the end of the performance period on a prorated basis. Following a change in control, the 2025-2027 LTIP awards vest at the target amount upon involuntary termination without cause or voluntary termination with good reason or if the successor does not assume the LTIP awards.

<sup>(2)</sup> The amounts reported in the **Estimated Future Payouts Under Equity Incentive Plan Awards** columns of the table include PSU awards for the 2025-2027 performance period ending December 31, 2027. PSU awards typically have a three-year vesting period ending on the third anniversary of the date of grant (i.e., February 28, 2028 for the February 26, 2025 grants). At the end of the vesting period, the amount earned is payable in shares of stock and cash representing deferred dividend equivalents accrued on the earned shares. PSU awards are subject to forfeiture upon termination of employment prior to the end of the vesting period, except in the event of retirement or layoff occurring after six months from the date of grant or in the event of death, disability or divestiture. In any of these events, PSU awards are paid out at the end of the vesting period on a prorated basis. Following a change in control, the PSUs vest at the target amount upon involuntary termination without cause or voluntary termination with good reason or if the successor does not assume the PSUs.

Shares are earned under the PSU awards based upon performance against three separate metrics described under "PSU Awards" in the CD&A. If performance falls below the threshold level of performance, no shares would be earned. Assuming any payment is earned, the minimum amount payable under the PSU award is 6.25% of the target shares, the lowest level payable under any of these metrics. The maximum number of shares payable under the PSU is 200% of the number of target shares.

<sup>(3)</sup> The amounts reported in the **All Other Stock Awards: Number of Shares of Stock or Units** column show the number of RSUs granted on February 26, 2025. 2025 RSU awards vest on the third anniversary of the date of grant. RSU awards are subject to forfeiture upon termination of employment prior to the end of the vesting period, except in the event of retirement or layoff occurring after six months from the date of grant or death, disability or divestiture. RSU awards vest in full immediately upon death or disability and, upon layoff after six months from the date of grant, pro rata vest and are paid following the third anniversary of the grant date. RSU awards are prorated upon divestiture if not assumed by the successor. Following a change in control, the RSUs vest upon involuntary termination without cause or voluntary termination for good reason or if the successor does not assume the RSUs. If the employee retires after six months from the date of grant, but prior to the third anniversary of the date of grant, the RSUs become nonforfeitable and are paid at the end of the vesting period.

During the vesting period, deferred dividend equivalents are accrued and subject to the same vesting schedule as the underlying RSUs. At the end of the vesting period, the RSUs are paid in shares of stock and the deferred dividend equivalents are paid in cash. If any tax withholding is required on the RSUs and deferred dividend equivalents during the vesting period (for example, on account of retirement eligibility), the RSUs provide for accelerated vesting of the number of shares and deferred dividend equivalents required to satisfy the tax withholding. The award is then reduced by the number of shares and deferred dividend equivalents subject to acceleration of vesting for tax withholding.

<sup>(4)</sup> The amounts reported in the **Grant Date Fair Value of Stock Awards** column represent the aggregate grant date fair value computed in accordance with FASB ASC 718 for RSUs and PSUs granted in 2025, disregarding potential forfeitures based on service requirements.

The grant date fair value of the 2025 RSU grant is $439.42 per RSU, which represents the closing price of one share of our common stock on the date of grant, discounted to take into account the deferred dividend equivalents accrued until vesting.

The grant date fair value for the 2025 PSUs, which are subject to performance conditions, is based on the probable outcome of each of the three performance conditions. The grant date fair value of $453.06 for the Relative TSR portion of the award is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The grant date fair value of $439.42 for the Free Cash Flow and ROIC portions of the awards is based on the closing price of one share of our stock on the date of grant, discounted to take into account the deferred dividend equivalents accrued until vesting.

As described in the CD&A, in determining 2025 awards of RSUs and PSUs, the closing price of Lockheed Martin common stock on the date of grant ($441.50 on February 26, 2025) was used as opposed to the grant date fair value. The use of the closing stock price versus the grant date fair value results in a difference between the amounts described in the CD&A and the amount reported in this column.

Mr. Malave forfeited the unvested LTI awards granted in 2025 upon his termination of employment.

<sup>(1)</sup> Includes all unvested RSUs. RSUs vest on the third anniversary of the grant date. Also includes the PSUs granted on February 22, 2023, which had a performance period ending December 31, 2025 and a vest date of February 22, 2026. The number of shares shown in this column for the 2023-2025 PSUs is the number of shares earned based on the performance period and that were paid upon vesting.

<sup>(2)</sup> The market value is calculated by multiplying the number of shares shown in the preceding column by the December 31, 2025 per share closing price of our stock ($483.67). At the end of the vesting period, NEOs also receive a cash payment representing deferred dividend equivalents accrued on earned shares for PSUs and vested shares for RSUs.

<sup>(3)</sup> Represents PSUs granted on February 22, 2024 for the 2024-2026 performance period and on February 26, 2025 for the 2025-2027 performance period. The PSUs are earned and paid out in shares of our common stock at the end of the three-year vesting period based upon performance on three separate metrics (Relative TSR, Free Cash Flow and ROIC). The number of shares of stock shown in this column is based upon the threshold level of performance for each of the three metrics or, if performance on the metric has exceeded the threshold level as of December 31, 2025, the estimated level of performance as of December 31, 2025. PSUs have a vesting period ending on the third anniversary of the date of grant.

<sup>(4)</sup> The market value is calculated by multiplying the number of PSUs reported in the preceding column by the December 31, 2025 per share closing price of our stock ($483.67). At the end of the vesting period, NEOs also receive a cash payment representing deferred dividend equivalents accrued on earned shares for PSUs and vested shares for RSUs.

Mr. Malave is not included in this table because he forfeited all unvested RSU and PSU awards granted in 2023, 2024, and 2025 upon his termination of employment.

<sup>(1)</sup> Represents (i) vesting on February 23, 2025 of RSUs and PSUs granted on February 23, 2022 following the three-year vesting period; and (ii) accelerated vesting on December 5, 2025 of a portion of RSUs granted on February 22, 2023, February 22, 2024, and February 26, 2025 equal to the value of the tax withholding obligation due because the NEO is retirement-eligible (for Mr. Taiclet, Mr. St. John, and Mr. Cahill). The amounts for the accelerated vesting for tax withholding represent the aggregate number of shares vested prior to the concurrent disposition of the vested shares to the Company to satisfy the tax withholding obligation. Mr. O'Connor did not vest in LTI awards during 2025. The Company clawed back the shares Mr. Malave received in 2025 upon vesting of the RSUs and PSUs granted on February 23, 2022 (18,535 gross shares; 9,582 net shares; $8,168,745 gross value realized upon vesting).

<sup>(2)</sup> Value realized was calculated based on the number of shares acquired on vesting multiplied by the per share closing price of our common stock on the date of vesting (February 23, 2025: $440.72 and December 5, 2025: $452.20).

**Pension Benefits**

Certain NEOs (i.e., Mr. Scott, Mr. St. John and Mr. Cahill) have frozen benefits under (1) the Lockheed Martin Corporation Salaried Employee Retirement Program (LMRP), which is a tax-qualified plan that includes several prior plans (the Prior Plans), and (2) the Lockheed Martin Corporation Consolidated Supplemental Retirement Benefit Plan (Supplemental Pension), which is a restorative plan that provides benefits in excess of the benefit payable under IRS rules through the LMRP. These plans were frozen in two steps. Increases in compensation ceased to be taken into account effective January 1, 2016 and increases in service ceased to be taken into account effective January 1, 2020.

The annual pension benefit for all participants under the LMRP is determined by a final average compensation formula that multiplies (x) a percentage (1.25% of compensation below the social security wage base and 1.5% above that level) times (y) years of credited service ending with 2019 times (z) the average of the employee's highest three years of compensation in the last ten years ending with 2015. Average compensation includes the NEO's base salary and annual incentive payouts. None of the participating NEOs has been credited with any extra years of service or provided a benefit from a special or enhanced formula. Normal retirement age is 65; however, benefits are payable as early as age 55 at a reduced amount or without reduction for early retirement at age 60. Benefits are payable as a monthly annuity for the lifetime of the employee, as a joint and survivor annuity, as a life annuity with a five- or ten-year guarantee, or as a level income annuity. In addition, a portion of the retirement benefits for the participating NEOs may be calculated based on the formulas specified by the Prior Plans. The Prior Plans have a number of formulas and are based on the final average compensation and credited service of the employee as of a specified date. Pay under certain Prior Plans' formulas included salary, commissions, lump sum pay in lieu of a salary increase and annual incentive payouts awarded that year.

The Supplemental Pension uses the same formula for benefits as the tax-qualified plan uses for calculating the NEO's benefit. Although all service recognized under the tax-qualified plan is recognized under the Supplemental Pension, a benefit would have been earned under the Supplemental Pension only in years when the NEO's total accrued benefit would have exceeded the maximum allowable benefit accrued under the tax-qualified plan. The Supplemental Pension benefits are payable in the same forms as benefits are paid under the LMRP.

The NEOs who participate in the LMRP (with the exception of Mr. Scott), including any portion with respect to Prior Plans, and the Supplemental Pension were vested and are eligible for early retirement as of December 31, 2025.

<sup>(1)</sup> The Number of Years of Credited Service is six years less than the actual number of years of service for the NEOs listed in the table as increases in service ceased to be taken into account effective January 1, 2020.

<sup>(2)</sup> The amounts reported in the **Present Value of Accumulated Benefit** column were computed using the same assumptions we used to account for pension liabilities in our financial statements and as described in Note 11 to our financial statements contained in our 2025 Annual Report. The amounts were calculated based on benefits commencing at age 60 (or current age if greater). We used these ages rather than the plan's normal retirement age of 65 because an employee may commence receiving pension benefits at age 60 without any reduction for early commencement. Amounts paid under our plans use assumptions contained in the plans and may be different than those used for financial statement reporting purposes. If a NEO is eligible to elect a lump sum payment under the Supplemental Pension, the amount of the lump sum would be based on plan assumptions and not the assumptions used for financial statement reporting purposes. As a result, the actual lump sum payment would be an amount different than what is reported in this table. The age of the NEO at retirement would also impact the size of the lump sum payment.

**Nonqualified Deferred Compensation**

In general, participants in our tax-qualified defined contribution plan may elect to defer up to 40% of base salary on a pre-tax, Roth, and/or after-tax basis. In addition, we make a matching contribution equal to 50% of up to the first 8% of base salary contributed by the participant plus a nonelective contribution equal to 6% of the participant's base pay. Employee and Company matching contributions in excess of the Internal Revenue Code limitations may be contributed to a nonqualified defined contribution plan called the Lockheed Martin Corporation Supplemental Savings Plan (NQSSP) on a pre-tax basis at the election of the NEO. We also make Company nonelective contributions in excess of the Internal Revenue Code limitations to a nonqualified defined contribution excess plan called the Lockheed Martin Corporation Nonqualified Capital Accumulation Plan (NCAP) equal to 6% of the NEO's base salary. Employee contributions and Company matching and nonelective contributions to the NQSSP and NCAP are nonforfeitable. NQSSP and NCAP contributions are credited with earnings or losses based on the investment options elected by the participant. Each of the NQSSP and NCAP investment options is available under our tax-qualified defined contribution plan for salaried employees, although the NQSSP and NCAP contributions are notionally invested in those options. The NQSSP and NCAP provide for payment following termination of employment in a lump sum or up to 25 annual installments at the participant's election. All amounts accumulated and unpaid under the NQSSP and NCAP must be paid in a lump sum within 15 calendar days following a change in control.

The Deferred Management Incentive Compensation Plan (DMICP) is a nonqualified deferred compensation plan that provides the opportunity to defer, until termination of employment or beyond, the receipt of all or a portion of annual incentive payouts and LTIP awards. NEOs may elect any of the investment funds available in the NQSSP (with the exception of the Company Stock Fund) and two investment alternatives available only under the DMICP for crediting earnings (losses). Under the DMICP Company Stock Investment Option, earnings (losses) on deferred amounts will accrue at a rate that tracks the performance of our common stock, including reinvestment of dividends. Under the DMICP Interest Investment Option, earnings accrue at a rate equivalent to the then published rate for computing the present value of future benefits under Cost Accounting Standards 415, Deferred Compensation (CAS 415 rate).

The Interest Investment Option was closed to new deferrals and transfers from other investment options effective July 1, 2009. Amounts credited to the Company Stock Investment Option may not be reallocated to other options and will be paid in shares of our common stock upon distribution. The DMICP provides for payment in January or July following termination of employment in a lump sum or up to 25 annual installments at the NEO's election. All amounts accumulated under the DMICP must be paid in a lump sum within 15 days following a change in control.

The following table reports compensation earned by the NEOs and deferred under NQSSP, NCAP and DMICP.

<sup>(1)</sup> Divestiture is defined as a transaction which results in the transfer of control of a business operation to any person, corporation, association, partnership, joint venture, or other business entity of which less than 50 percent of the voting stock or other equity interests (in the case of entities other than corporations) is owned or controlled directly or indirectly by us, one or more of our subsidiaries, or by a combination thereof following the transaction.

<sup>(2)</sup> See "Compensation Discussion and Analysis" for discussion of annual incentive payment calculation.

<sup>(3)</sup> See "Pension Benefits Table" for present value of accumulated benefit. Amounts paid under the Pension and Supplemental Pension use assumptions set forth in the plans and are different from the assumptions used to calculate the accrued benefit reported in the Pension Benefits Table or Summary Compensation Table or for financial reporting; therefore, actual payouts would be different from those disclosed in such tables. Payments under the Supplemental Pension would be payable to eligible NEOs in accordance with their individual elections and would not commence prior to age 55, except in the case of a change in control, in which case benefits would be paid in a lump sum payment shortly following the change in control regardless of age. All forms of payment, whether lump sum or annuities and regardless of the payment triggering event, would be calculated using the plan assumptions to be actuarially equivalent so that there is no incremental benefit associated with any of the events or payment forms.

<sup>(4)</sup> See "Aggregate Balance at Last FYE" column in the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Table for amounts payable.

The following table quantifies the payments under our executive compensation programs in RSU, LTIP and PSU awards and the Executive Severance Plan that would be made for each NEO assuming a termination event occurred on December 31, 2025. Payments under other plans do not change as a result of the termination event, and quantification of those payments is found elsewhere in this Proxy Statement; benefits under plans available generally to salaried employees also are not included. The table shows amounts that would actually be paid on or shortly after December 31, 2025 on account of the trigger event. Amounts that are contingent upon future performance, continued vesting or already earned as of December 31, 2025 are described and quantified in the footnotes following the table. Award agreements for the NEOs contain clawback provisions and post-employment restrictive covenants. To receive a supplemental severance benefit or favorable vesting of RSU, LTIP and PSU awards on layoff, an executive must execute a release of claims and, for the supplemental severance benefit, an agreement containing two-year post-employment non-compete and non-solicitation covenants.

<sup>(2)</sup> **Long-Term Incentive Performance Awards:** The table shows an amount payable in the event of a change in control trigger event for the 2024-2026 and 2025-2027 LTIP performance periods. The amount shown for the LTIP upon a change in control is the target level. The table assumes the double trigger occurred. For a trigger event based upon death, disability, retirement (or resignation after satisfying the requirements for retirement), layoff or divestiture on December 31, 2025, amounts (if any) for the 2024-2026 and 2025-2027 LTIP performance periods would be paid on a prorated basis after the end of the performance period. The estimated prorated amounts payable for the 2024-2026 performance cycle based on performance through December 31, 2025 are: Mr. Taiclet $1,156,300; Mr. Scott $74,458; Mr. St. John $455,512 and Mr. Cahill $301,339. The estimated prorated amounts payable for the 2025-2027 performance cycle based on performance through December 31, 2025 are: Mr. Taiclet $571,308; Mr. Scott $35,707; Mr. St. John $225,163; Mr. Cahill $151,228 and Mr. O'Connor $134,425. The table does not include amounts for the 2023-2025 performance cycle as these amounts are reported in the Summary Compensation Table (see footnote to the "Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation" column).

<sup>(3)</sup> **Restricted Stock Units:** For a change in control (assuming satisfaction of the double trigger), death, disability or divestiture, the reported value of the RSUs was based upon the closing price of our stock on December 31, 2025 ($483.67) plus deferred dividend equivalents that accrued. RSUs would continue to vest for retirement or vest pro-rata for layoff, in each case occurring on December 31, 2025 and would not become payable until their normal vesting date, and are not included in the table. If a NEO is retirement-eligible, then in the case of a divestiture occurring on December 31, 2025, the RSUs will continue to vest and are treated as a retirement. For retirement under the 2023, 2024 and 2025 RSUs, the RSUs to be received upon vesting would have the same value on December 31, 2025 as the amounts shown for immediate payment on account of death or disability. For 2023, 2024 and 2025 RSUs that pay out a prorated amount upon vesting in the event of a layoff, the value as of December 31, 2025 was (i) for the 2023 RSUs: Mr. Taiclet $4,967,113; Mr. Scott $439,979; Mr. St. John $1,940,499 and Mr. Cahill $1,303,756; and (ii) for the 2024 RSUs: Mr. Taiclet $3,636,189; Mr. Scott $311,979; Mr. St. John $1,432,454 and Mr. Cahill $947,662; and (iii) for the 2025 RSUs: Mr. Taiclet $1,613,824; Mr. Scott $134,692; Mr. St. John $636,186; Mr. Cahill $427,437 and Mr. O'Connor $4,435,904.

<sup>(4)</sup> **Performance Stock Units:** The table shows an amount payable in the event of a change in control trigger event for the 2023-2025, 2024-2026, and 2025-2027 performance periods. The amount shown for the PSUs upon a change in control is the target level of the shares valued using the closing price of our stock on December 31, 2025 ($483.67) plus deferred dividend equivalents that accrued. The table assumes the double trigger occurred. For a trigger event based upon death, disability, retirement (or resignation after satisfying the requirements for retirement), layoff or divestiture on December 31, 2025, amounts (if any) for the 2023-2025, 2024-2026, and 2025-2027 PSU performance periods would be paid on a prorated basis following the end of the applicable performance period. The payments estimated to be paid on a non-prorated basis following the end of the performance cycle using the December 31, 2025 stock price are reported for the 2023-2025 PSU performance cycle in the "Market Value of Shares or Units of Stock That Have Not Vested" column of the Outstanding Equity Awards at 2025 Fiscal Year-End table and for 2024-2026 and 2025-2027 in the "Equity Incentive Plan Awards: Market or Payout Value of Unearned Shares, Units or Other Rights That Have Not Vested" column of that table. The estimated prorated amounts for a trigger event occurring on December 31, 2025 plus deferred dividend equivalents that accrued are for each cycle: (i) 2023-2025 cycle: Mr. Taiclet $3,895,089; Mr. Scott $103,862; Mr. St. John $1,521,919 and Mr. Cahill $1,022,963; and (ii) 2024-2026 cycle: Mr. Taiclet $3,270,175; Mr. Scott $84,622; Mr. St. John $1,288,699 and Mr. Cahill $852,845; and (iii) 2025-2027 cycle: Mr. Taiclet $1,524,858; Mr. Scott $38,271; Mr. St. John $601,395; Mr. Cahill $404,078 and Mr. O'Connor $359,345. The prorated amounts are based on the stock price and estimated performance as of December 31, 2025.

<sup>(5)</sup> **Executive Severance:** The total amounts projected for severance payments due to layoff are based on the Executive Severance Plan. It includes payment for one year of salary (2.99 years for Mr. Taiclet) and one year of target annual incentive (2.99 for Mr. Taiclet), estimated costs for benefits continuation for one year, outplacement services and relocation assistance (if required under the plan terms).

Mr. Malave is not included in the preceding table because his employment with the Company terminated in April 2025. In connection with his termination of employment, Mr. Malave forfeited all unvested LTI awards granted in 2023, 2024 and 2025. Mr. Malave is receiving payments under the nonqualified savings and deferred compensation plans according to elections he made under each plan, with no acceleration or enhanced benefits. The Company did not provide any severance or other special benefits to Mr. Malave in connection with his termination of employment.

**CEO Pay Ratio**

As required by Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, the Company must annually disclose in its proxy statement the median of the annual total compensation of all of its employees (excluding the CEO), the annual total compensation of its CEO, and the ratio of the CEO compensation to the employee median compensation. The ratio of CEO pay to the pay of the Company's median employee for fiscal year 2025 is 180 to one.

Lockheed Martin employs approximately 123,000 employees that are, in large part, highly skilled professionals located primarily in the United States, but also in numerous other countries.

As required by SEC rules, we conducted an analysis to determine our median employee in 2025, three years after our prior determination. A new median employee was determined for 2025 by calculating the total annual cash compensation (base salary plus annual incentive) of all employees except the CEO as of December 31, 2025, sorting those employees from highest to lowest compensation; and determining the median employee from that list. The same approach was utilized in identifying the median employee three years ago.

The total annual compensation for our CEO for fiscal year 2025 was $23,453,308 as set forth in the Total column in the Summary Compensation Table. The total annual compensation for the median employee for fiscal year 2025 was $130,614 encompassing base salary, incentives/recognition awards and Company contributions to defined contribution plans. The annual total compensation of the median employee was determined in the same manner as the total compensation shown for our CEO. Like Mr. Taiclet, the median employee does not participate in our pension plan.

**Pay Versus Performance** 

The disclosure included in this section is prescribed by SEC rules and does not necessarily align with how the Company or the Compensation Committee views the link between the Company's performance and its NEOs' pay. For a discussion of how the Company views its executive compensation structure, including alignment with Company performance, see "Compensation Discussion and Analysis" beginning on page [29](#ia14c0e659159437e9ced17e574c77cdc_205).

The use of the term "compensation actually paid" (CAP) is required by SEC rules. Neither CAP nor the total amount reported in the Summary Compensation Table reflect the amount of compensation actually paid, earned, or received during the applicable year. Per SEC rules, CAP was calculated by adjusting the Summary Compensation Table Total values for the applicable year as described in the footnotes to the following table.

Ambrose, Ms. Hill and Ms. Marillyn A. Hewson.

<sup>(2)</sup> CAP reflects the total compensation reported in the Summary Compensation Table for the applicable year adjusted to include or exclude the amounts shown in the tables below for the NEOs. Amounts in the "Exclusion of Change in Pension Value" column reflect the amounts attributable to the Change in Pension Value reported in the Summary Compensation Table. Amounts in the "Exclusion of Stock Awards" column are the totals from the "Stock Awards" column set forth in the Summary Compensation Table. The "Inclusion of Pension Service Cost" column would report amounts based on the pension service cost for services rendered during the listed year and any prior service cost or credit attributable to a plan amendment for services rendered prior to the amendment. There are no amounts listed in this column because the Company's pension plan was frozen effective January 1, 2020 and there have not been any plan amendments triggering additional costs or credits in the years covered. Equity values are calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718.

<sup>(3)</sup> Reflects S&P Aerospace & Defense Index.

<sup>(4)</sup> "Net income" is equivalent to "Net earnings" as reported in the Company's financial statements.

<sup>(5)</sup> SEC rules require us to designate a "company-selected measure" that in our assessment represents the most important financial performance measure (that is not total stockholder return or net income) used by the Company to link the CAP of our NEOs, for the most recently completed fiscal year, to our performance. We selected Free Cash Flow as this measure for 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025 as reflected in column (i) in the first table above. Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP measure and is defined as cash from operations less capital expenditures. See Appendix A for more information on Free Cash Flow and how it is calculated. This performance measure may not have been the most important financial performance measure for 2021 and we may determine a different financial performance measure to be the most important financial performance measure in future years.

**Relationship Between CAP and Cumulative TSR, Net Income and Free Cash Flow**

The following chart sets forth the relationship between CAP for our PEO, the CAP average for our other NEOs, and our cumulative total stockholder returns during the five most recently completed years. As illustrated, CAP generally correlates with our total stockholder returns as the majority of executive compensation is delivered through long-term incentives, the value of which is largely dependent on total stockholder return, including changes to our stock price and our forecasted performance factor for the unvested PSUs granted over the last three years.

The stockholder return performance indicated on the graph below is not a guarantee of future performance.

![03_LMT_CAPandTSR.jpg](lmt-20260326_g104.jpg)

Net Income and Free Cash Flow are also important components of our executive compensation incentive plans. Free Cash Flow is incorporated in both our annual and long-term incentive plans, while Net Income is part of the formula for our ROIC calculation in our long-term incentive program. While Net Income and Free Cash Flow are key financial measures that can also affect our TSRs, they do not have as strong of a relation to CAP given that the methodology in determining CAP is primarily based on changes to equity-based award values tied to our annual stock price performance.

As shown in the Pay Versus Performance table on page [58](#ia14c0e659159437e9ced17e574c77cdc_235) above, CAP increased from 2021 to 2022, decreased from 2022 to 2023, increased from 2023 to 2024 and decreased from 2024 to 2025, while Net Income decreased from 2021 to 2022, increased from 2022 to 2023, decreased from 2023 to 2024 and 2024 to 2025, while Free Cash Flow decreased from 2021 to 2022, increased from 2022 to 2023, decreased from 2023 to 2024 and increased from 2024 to 2025. See "2025 Compensation Elements" in the CD&A for more information on the impact of these measures to 2025 incentive awards.

**Stockholder Returns Versus Peer Group**

For purposes of the Pay Versus Performance disclosure, we measure our TSR performance against the industry-focused index disclosed in the stock performance graph of our Annual Report on Form 10-K. The comparison assumes $100 was invested in the Company and in the S&P Aerospace & Defense Index for the period starting December 31, 2020 and was held through the end of each year listed in the first table set forth above. All dollar values assume reinvestment of dividends paid by companies in the index. Historical stock performance is not necessarily indicative of future stock performance. This table does not reflect how the Compensation Committee considers TSR in setting executive pay or linking executive pay to Company performance.

| **Proposal 3: Ratification of Appointment of Independent Auditors** | ![icon_checkmark (Green).jpg](lmt-20260326_g3.jpg) | The Board recommends a vote **FOR** this proposal |

---

The Audit Committee has reappointed Ernst & Young LLP (EY), an independent registered public accounting firm, as the independent auditors to perform an integrated audit of the Company's consolidated financial statements and internal control over financial reporting for the year ending December 31, 2026. The services provided to the Company by EY for the last two fiscal years are described under the caption "Fees for Independent Auditors" on the following page.

The Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention, oversight and termination of the Company's independent auditors in accordance with the NYSE listing standards. The Audit Committee also is responsible for the audit fee negotiations associated with the retention of EY. The Audit Committee and its Chairman are involved in the selection of EY's lead engagement partner. The Audit Committee regularly meets with EY without management present.

EY has served as the Company's independent auditors since 1994. The Audit Committee reviews the engagement of EY annually following completion of EY's audit of the prior year's financial statements. The Audit Committee also conducts a mid-year assessment of the quality of EY's work. As part of its annual and mid-year assessment of EY, the Audit Committee has considered:

• the materials on independence provided by EY;

• work quality;

• management's level of satisfaction with EY's services;

• the adequacy of EY's staffing and the use of digital audit tools to successfully perform the audit;

• the breadth of knowledge, support and expertise of its national office;

• the length of time EY has been engaged;

• external data regarding EY's audit quality and performance, including recent Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) reports on EY and its peer firms, including the results of any internal or external inspections of the EY audit of Lockheed Martin;

• EY's institutional knowledge and expertise with respect to the Company's business and government contracting practices;

• EY's quality and cost-effective services;

• EY's familiarity with the Company's accounts;

• the potential impact of changing independent auditors, including the high-level security clearances held by EY staff in support of its review of classified programs and the difficulty in replacing those clearances in a timely manner without disruption to the ongoing audit activities;

• EY's level of expertise in accounting issues relating to government contracts; and

• EY's performance in providing independent analysis of management positions.

While the length of EY's tenure may implicate some stockholders' stewardship guidelines, the Board believes that EY's continued engagement is appropriate and in the best interest of the Company. Any potential risks or concerns associated with EY's tenure are outweighed by its independence and objectivity, work quality, expertise, communications, security clearances and deep institutional knowledge of the Company's industry, operations, business, accounting policies and internal controls.

Stockholder approval of the appointment is not required. However, the Board believes that obtaining stockholder ratification of the appointment is a sound corporate governance practice. If the stockholders do not vote on an advisory basis in favor of the appointment of EY, the Audit Committee will reconsider whether or not to hire the firm and may retain EY or hire another firm without resubmitting the matter for stockholders' approval. The Audit Committee retains the discretion at any time to appoint a different independent auditor.

Representatives of EY are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting, and such representatives will be available to respond to appropriate questions and will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire.

**Pre-Approval of Independent Auditors' Services**

The Audit Committee pre-approves all audit, audit-related, tax and other services performed by the independent auditors. The Audit Committee pre-approves specific categories of services up to pre-established fee thresholds. Unless the type of service has previously been pre-approved, the Audit Committee must approve that specific service before the independent auditors may perform such service. In addition, separate approval is required if the amount of fees for any pre-approved category of service exceeds the fee thresholds established by the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee also has delegated to the Committee Chairman or any other committee member pre-approval authority with respect to permitted services up to $500,000, provided that the Committee Chairman or the approving committee member must report any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

**Fees for Independent Auditors**

The following table sets forth the fees billed and expected to be billed by EY, the Company's independent auditors, for audit services, audit-related services, tax services and all other services rendered for 2025 and 2024. All fees were pre-approved in accordance with the Audit Committee's pre-approval policy. The Audit Committee considered and concluded that the provision of these services by EY was compatible with the maintenance of the auditor's independence.

**Audit Committee Report** 

On behalf of the Board, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is responsible for overseeing the Company's accounting, auditing and financial reporting process and financial risk assessment and management process. The Audit Committee also monitors compliance with certain legal and regulatory matters.

The Company's management is responsible for preparing the quarterly and annual consolidated financial statements, the financial reporting process, and maintaining and evaluating disclosure controls and procedures and a system of internal control over financial reporting.

In addition to its oversight of the Company's internal audit organization, the Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of the Company's independent auditors, Ernst & Young LLP (EY), an independent registered public accounting firm. The independent auditors are responsible for performing an independent audit of the Company's annual consolidated financial statements and internal control over financial reporting and expressing an opinion on the material conformity of those consolidated financial statements with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

In connection with the preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025, the Audit Committee reviewed and discussed with management and EY the Company's audited consolidated financial statements, including discussions regarding critical accounting policies, financial accounting and reporting principles and practices, the quality of such principles and practices, the reasonableness of significant judgments and estimates, and the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. The Audit Committee also discussed with EY, with and without management, the quality of the financial statements, clarity of the related disclosures, effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting and other items required by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Additionally, the Audit Committee received and reviewed the written disclosures and letter from EY required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding EY's communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and has discussed with EY its independence.

Based on the Audit Committee's reviews and discussions described in this report, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025 be included in Lockheed Martin Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2025 for filing with the SEC. The Audit Committee also reappointed EY to serve as the Company's independent auditors for 2026, and requested that this appointment be submitted to the Company's stockholders for ratification at the Annual Meeting. The Board of Directors approved the Audit Committee's recommendations.

| **Stockholder Proposal Requiring Independent Board Chairman** | ![icon_crossmark.jpg](lmt-20260326_g5.jpg) | **The Board recommends a vote AGAINST this proposal** |

Mr. John Chevedden intends to introduce the proposal set forth below at the Annual Meeting.

**Beginning of Stockholder Proposal—Text and Graphic are Reprinted from the Stockholder Submission:**

---

| |
|:---|
| **Proposal 4 - Independent Board Chairman** |
| ![Chevedden.jpg](lmt-20260326_g106.jpg) |
| Shareholders request that the Board of Directors adopt an enduring policy, and amend the governing documents as necessary in order that 2 separate people hold the office of the Chairman and the office of the CEO as soon as possible.<br>The Chairman of the Board shall be an Independent Director. A Lead Director shall not be a substitute for an independent Board Chairman.<br>The Board shall have the discretion to select an interim Chairman of the Board, who is not an Independent Director, to serve while the Board is required to seek an Independent Chairman of the Board on an accelerated basis. This policy could be phased in when there is a contract renewal for our current CEO or for the next CEO transition although it is better to adopt it now.<br>An independent Board Chairman at all times improves corporate governance by bringing impartiality, objective oversight, and external expertise to board decisions, mitigating conflicts of interest, enhancing transparency, and boosting investor confidence.<br>This detached perspective allows the chairman to focus on shareholder interests, strengthen management accountability, and provide critical checks and balances, ultimately contributing to the Company's long-term sustainability and credibility.<br>This may be a particularly good time to consider the merits of this proposal. Lockheed Martin stock was at $440 in 2020 and at only $500 in late 2025.<br>2025 news reports have reflected unfavorably on Lockheed Martin, primarily due to financial losses, program challenges, and a related investor lawsuit. This includes a $1.8 billion pre-tax loss, related to classified aeronautics and missile programs in January 2025. An additional $950 million pre-tax loss on a highly-classified "Skunk Works" program and a $570 million pre-tax loss on the Canadian Maritime Helicopter Program in June 2025.<br>An August 2025 lawsuit alleged that Lockheed Martin misled shareholders about its financial health between January 2024 and July 2025. The complaint claims the company lacked effective internal controls and failed to disclose risks that led to billions in program write-downs. Lockheed Martin's chief financial officer, Jay Malave, left the company in April 2025, just months before the significant second-quarter losses were revealed.<br>The F-35 fighter jet program, which accounts for a substantial portion of Lockheed Martin's revenue, experienced delivery delays again in 2025. An October 2025 Government Accountability Office report stated that the F-35 will never live up to its ambitious promises, following nearly a quarter-century of development.<br>In October 2025, it was reported that delays from engine supplier Pratt & Whitney would postpone the finalization of contracts for F-35 engines until the spring of 2026. Throughout 2025, Elon Musk criticized legacy defense programs, including the F-35, and has called for the mass production of cheaper, AI-powered drones.<br>Lockheed Martin accrued $100 million in interest as it contests a claim from the IRS for an additional $4.6 billion in income tax liability. |

**The Board of Directors Recommends Voting AGAINST Proposal 4**<br>The Board of Directors recommends that stockholders vote **AGAINST** this proposal for the following reasons: <br>**Forcing a one-size-fits-all approach to Board leadership is not in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders and usurps the Board's duty to determine the most effective leadership structure for Lockheed Martin using its business judgment.**<br>The Board believes that determining the leadership structure of the Company is one of its most important fiduciary duties, and a flexible leadership model best enables the Board to exercise independent and effective oversight of the Company's business and affairs. The proposal's rigid, one-size-fits-all, permanent policy will prohibit the Board, regardless of the circumstances, from exercising its judgment to determine the leadership structure that best serves the interests of our stockholders. The Board believes this is why less than half of the S&P 500 have an independent chair according to Spencer Stuart's 2025 U.S. Board Index.<br>The Board has viewed its flexible leadership structure as an important enabler for Lockheed Martin. For instance, when Mr. Taiclet was elected CEO in 2020, the Board separated the roles of Chair and CEO, with our former CEO serving as Executive Chairman to provide continuity during the transition. In 2021 and annually since, the independent directors – 90% of the Board as of year-end 2025 – determined that the best leadership structure was to have a combined Chair and CEO balanced by a strong independent Lead Director.<br>**The Board has created a robust independent Lead Director role and strong corporate governance practices and policies that enable Lockheed Martin's experienced and independent directors to provide oversight in the best interests of our stockholders.**<br>All directors other than our CEO are independent and all members of our Board committees are independent, which ensures that our independent directors have primary oversight of critical matters, including the integrity of the Company's financial statements, the compensation of our executive officers, the selection and evaluation of directors, and the development of corporate governance policies and practices.<br>The independent Lead Director plays a critical role in Lockheed Martin's governance structure as the person charged with ensuring that the Board provides appropriate independent oversight of management. Among the other authorities described in this proxy, the Lead Director engages directly with the other independent directors, the Chairman, and management to ensure that the Board is provided the information it needs to make decisions, holds regular, candid discussions with the independent directors without the Chairman or management present, and provides unvarnished feedback to the Chairman and management as part of the Board's oversight processes.<br>Furthermore, as a result of the Company's Board refreshment efforts, 55% of the Company's independent directors have joined the Board in the past six years, resulting in a balanced range of tenures and ensuring both continuity and fresh perspectives among our Board members. The strength and experience of our independent directors, all of whom have served in senior leadership roles outside the Company, combined with the strong and effective corporate governance practices memorialized in our Corporate Governance Guidelines, Bylaws, and other governance policies and practices, reinforce the Board's alignment with, and accountability to, stockholders.<br>**Annual election of both the Chairman and the independent Lead Director by the independent members of the Board keeps both roles accountable to the Company's stockholders.**<br>Our directors are elected annually by our stockholders and, once elected, vote on the leadership structure of the Board for the year ahead. This annual action, coupled with the flexibility provided for by allowing a combined Chairman and CEO or separating the roles noted above, gives the Board maximum flexibility to ensure that the Company's needs are met across changing times and circumstances.<br>In 2025, Lockheed Martin's independent directors unanimously re-elected Mr. Falk to serve as independent Lead Director. Mr. Falk brings to the role a deep knowledge of the Company, our industry and our customers, and his experience leading a large public company, his governance experience from past and current service on other Boards of Directors and his strategic perspective on global trends and business transformation enable him to serve as an effective and independent Lead Director. During his tenure as Lead Director, Mr. Falk has engaged with many of our largest stockholders to ensure he and the Board receive direct stockholder feedback.<br>**Our stockholders have considered iterations of this proposal three times and consistently declined to require separation of the Chairman and CEO roles.**<br>Lockheed Martin has received an independent chair proposal three times. Our stockholders have previously rejected all prior proposals on this topic, with less than 29% of stockholders supporting this proposal at the 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.<br>**THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE AGAINST PROPOSAL 4**.<br>

**How will I receive the proxy voting materials, and what materials should I expect to receive?**

We are furnishing proxy materials to our stockholders primarily via "Notice and Access" delivery pursuant to SEC rules. On or about March 26, 2026, we mailed to our stockholders (other than those who previously requested a printed set) a "Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials" containing instructions on how to access the proxy materials via the Internet. This method of proxy delivery reduces the cost of producing and mailing the full set of proxy materials, and we encourage you to sign up for electronic delivery to further these goals. Stockholders who previously consented to electronic delivery and certain savings plan participants will receive their proxy materials via email. Most active employees who participate in the Company's savings plans will receive an email notification announcing Internet availability of the proxy materials. A paper copy will not be provided unless requested by the employee following the instruction in the email notification.

The Proxy Statement and Annual Report are available to the public at *www.edocumentview.com/LMT* or *www.lockheedmartin.com/investor.* The SEC also maintains a website at *www.sec.gov* that contains reports, proxy statements and other information regarding Lockheed Martin. If you are a registered stockholder and would like to receive electronic copies of the proxy materials in the future, you may visit *www.lockheedmartin.com/investor* and complete the online consent form under the "Shareholder Services" section. Requests for electronic copies will remain in effect for all future proxy voting materials, including the Annual Report, unless withdrawn. Withdrawal procedures are also available at *www.lockheedmartin.com/investor*. If you are a beneficial owner, contact your broker, bank or other nominee for information on electronic delivery of proxy materials.

**How do you handle "householding"?**

Our Company has adopted a procedure approved by the SEC called "householding." Under this procedure, we send a single hard copy of the Notice of Internet Availability or, if you requested full printed versions by mail, only one hard copy Proxy Statement and one hard copy Annual Report to eligible stockholders who share the same address, unless we have received instructions to the contrary from any stockholder at that address. Eligible stockholders who participate in householding will continue to receive separate proxy cards. This practice is designed to reduce our Company's printing and postage costs. We do not use householding for any other stockholder mailings, such as dividend checks, IRS Forms 1099 or account statements. If you are a beneficial owner, please contact your broker, bank or other nominee to inquire about any specific householding procedure.

If you are eligible for householding but received multiple copies of the Notice of Internet Availability, Annual Report and Proxy Statement, and prefer to receive only a single copy of each of these documents for your household, please contact Computershare, Shareholder Relations, P.O. Box 43006, Providence, RI 02940-3006, or call 1-877-498-8861. If you are a registered stockholder residing at an address with any other registered stockholder and wish to receive a separate Notice of Internet Availability, Annual Report or Proxy Statement, we will promptly provide you with a separate copy or send you a separate copy in the future upon written or oral request to Computershare as indicated above.

**How early can I vote, and when are the voting deadlines?** 

Stockholders may vote as soon as they receive their proxy voting materials. We recommend that stockholders vote prior to the Annual Meeting and before any earlier deadline specified below. Early voting will ensure that your votes are properly received and tallied before the 2026 proxy voting deadlines, provided below:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Registered Stockholder** | **Savings Plan Participant** | **Beneficial Owner** |
| Voting Deadlines | May 12, 2026 <br>Upon Poll Closure during Annual Meeting | May 7, 2026<br>Before 11:59 PM ET | Follow applicable deadlines on the information received from your broker, bank or other nominee |

---

**How do I change or revoke my vote?**

For registered stockholders and savings plan participants, you may change or revoke your proxy or voting instructions prior to the meeting by submitting later-dated instructions by Internet, telephone or mail or providing written notice to Lockheed Martin Corporation, Attention: Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary, 6801 Rockledge Drive, Bethesda, MD 20817, before your original proxy is voted at the Annual Meeting. To be effective, revocation instructions must be received by the applicable voting deadlines. Registered stockholders may also revoke their proxy by attending and voting their shares at the Annual Meeting. Attending the meeting, by itself, will not revoke a proxy. Beneficial owners should contact their broker, bank or nominee for information on how to change or revoke any prior votes.

**What will happen if I return my proxy without voting instructions, or if I do not return my proxy?**

Voting outcomes will vary, per the scenarios as provided below:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Scenario** | **Registered Stockholder** | **Savings Plan Participant** | **Beneficial Owner** |
| **I return my proxy *<u>without</u>* my voting instructions.** | Your shares **will be voted according to the voting recommendations of the Board of Directors.** It is in the best judgment of the named proxy holders if any other matters are properly brought before the Annual Meeting. | If the plan trustee does not timely receive your voting instructions, the trustee will **vote the shares allocated to your plan account in proportion to those shares for which voting instructions were timely received** from plan participants. If the plan trustee determines that voting in this fashion is not in the best interest of the plan participants, the trustee will make an independent determination as to how to vote such shares. | Under New York Stock Exchange rules, your broker, bank or other nominee may **vote your shares on routine matters only.** For this annual meeting, the only routine matter is Proposal 3 (Ratification of Appointment of Ernst & Young LLP). |
| **I do *<u>not</u>* return my proxy.** | Your shares will **not** be voted **unless** you vote. Your vote must be received before the voting deadline. | If the plan trustee does not timely receive your voting instructions, the trustee will **vote the shares allocated to your plan account in proportion to those shares for which voting instructions were timely received** from plan participants. If the plan trustee determines that voting in this fashion is not in the best interest of the plan participants, the trustee will make an independent determination as to how to vote such shares. | Under New York Stock Exchange rules, your broker, bank or other nominee may **vote your shares on routine matters only.** For this annual meeting, the only routine matter is Proposal 3 (Ratification of Appointment of Ernst & Young LLP). |

---

**Note:** The Company cannot provide a single proxy or instruction card for stockholders who own shares in multiple forms as registered stockholders, savings plan participants or beneficial owners. As a result, if your shares are held in multiple stockholder accounts, you must submit your votes for each type of account in accordance with the instructions that you receive for the respective account.

**What am I voting on and what are the Board's voting recommendations?** 

The following table summarizes the Board's voting recommendations for each proposal, if properly presented during the Annual Meeting, the vote required for each proposal to pass, and the effect of abstentions and uninstructed shares on each proposal.

<sup>(1)</sup> "Votes cast" excludes broker non-votes and excludes abstentions.

<sup>(2)</sup> A stockholder who abstains on some or all matters is considered present for purposes of determining if a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting, but an abstention is not counted as a vote cast under Maryland law. Accordingly, an abstention has no effect on the vote on any proposal.

<sup>(3)</sup> Brokers only have discretionary authority to vote on Proposal 3. If a broker casts a vote on Proposal 3, the vote will be included in determining whether a quorum exists for holding the meeting. Brokers do not have authority to vote on the other proposals (non-routine matters) absent directions from the beneficial owner. Votes withheld by brokers in the absence of voting instructions from a beneficial owner are referred to as "broker non-votes" and will not count as votes cast for that proposal and have no effect on the proposal outcome. A broker non-vote on these proposals will not impact our ability to obtain a quorum.

**Can other matters be decided at the Annual Meeting?**

We were not aware of any other matters to be presented at the Annual Meeting at the time this Proxy Statement went to press. If other matters are properly presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting, the proxy holders appointed by our Board (who are named on your proxy card if you are a Registered Stockholder) will have the discretion to vote on those matters in accordance with their best judgment on behalf of stockholders who provide a valid proxy by Internet, telephone or mail.

**Are my votes confidential?**

Voting instructions for Company savings plan participants are confidential as required by law. Individual votes of stockholders are kept confidential by the Company and its agents, except as necessary to meet legal requirements.

**Who will tally the votes?**

Representatives from our authorized transfer agent, Computershare, will tabulate the votes and act as inspectors of election for the Annual Meeting.

**How will I be notified of the voting results of the Annual Meeting?**

The preliminary voting results will be announced during the Annual Meeting. The final voting results will be tallied by the inspectors of election and disclosed by the Company in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC within four business days following the Annual Meeting and posted on our investor relations website, *www.lockheedmartin.com/investor*.

**Who is soliciting proxies and who pays the cost of this proxy solicitation?**

The Company's Board of Directors solicits proxies for the Annual Meeting. We may solicit proxies by Internet, telephone, mail or in person. To the extent necessary to ensure sufficient representation at the Annual Meeting, we may request the return of proxies by mail, express delivery, courier, telephone, Internet or other means. The Company pays the cost of soliciting proxies on behalf of the Board for the Annual Meeting. We may make arrangements with brokerage houses or other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to send the proxy voting materials to beneficial owners on our behalf. We reimburse these entities for their reasonable expenses. We have retained Sodali & Co, 333 Ludlow Street, 5th floor, South Tower, Stamford, CT 06902 to aid in the solicitation of proxies and to verify related records for a fee of $35,000, plus expenses.

**How do I participate and vote in the Annual Meeting?**

Stockholders may attend the Annual Meeting via the Internet by visiting ***https://meetnow.global/LMT2026***. You will be prompted to enter the unique control number received with your proxy materials to join and participate in the meeting. Company savings plan participants who join the Annual Meeting by using their control number will be able to ask questions but not vote during the meeting.

The vast majority of beneficial owners will be able to participate using the control number received with their voting instruction form, but we recommend that beneficial owners confirm this ability with the broker, bank or other nominee through which they hold their shares. If your broker, bank or other nominee does not provide the ability to access the virtual Annual Meeting, then you will be required to request a legal proxy from them to participate in the Annual Meeting. See "What is a legal proxy and how do I request one?"

**Who can submit a question during the Annual Meeting?**

Stockholders attending the meeting as a Participant using their control number will be able to submit questions via the virtual meeting platform in accordance with the Annual Meeting rules and procedures, which will be available on the meeting website. If you do not have a control number, you may attend the Annual Meeting as a Guest, but you will not be able to ask a question.

**When will my question be answered?**

A live question and answer session will take place after the formal business is completed, during which our Company representatives will respond to questions submitted via the virtual meeting platform before and during the meeting in accordance with the Company's annual meeting procedures.

**What is a legal proxy and how do I request one?**

A legal proxy is a legal authorization from you to another person or from you to your broker, bank or other nominee if you are a beneficial owner who authorizes the other person or entity to vote the shares held in your name or in the nominee's name that satisfies Maryland law. If you are a beneficial owner and your control number does not enable you to attend the Annual Meeting as a Participant, then to participate in the Annual Meeting, you will need to request a legal proxy from your broker, bank or other nominee and register with Computershare in advance of the Annual Meeting.

**Appendix A: Definition of Non-GAAP Measures** 

Certain financial and performance metrics in this Proxy Statement are considered non-GAAP financial measures under the SEC's rules because they are calculated by adjusting a comparable measure calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Although we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures may be useful in evaluating the Company and its compensation plans, this information should be considered supplemental to, and is not a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our definitions for non-GAAP measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies or analysts. Furthermore, Segment Operating Profit and Free Cash Flow used for compensation purposes may differ from the amounts reported in our periodic reports filed with the SEC and our earnings releases because the Compensation Committee requires certain adjustments to those measures for compensation purposes as described below.

**Free Cash Flow**

We define Free Cash Flow as cash from operations less capital expenditures. Our capital expenditures consist of equipment and facilities infrastructure and information technology (inclusive of costs for the development or purchase of internal-use software that are capitalized). We use Free Cash Flow to evaluate our business performance and overall liquidity and it was a performance goal in our annual and long-term incentive plans in 2025 and prior years.

Free Cash Flow is subject to mandatory adjustment for purposes of determining performance under the PSU and LTIP awards and the annual incentive plan. These mandatory adjustments are set forth in the PSU or LTIP award agreement or, in the case of the annual incentive plan, a Compensation Committee resolution, as applicable, and include unplanned pension contributions (net of tax), acquisitions and divestitures greater than $1 billion in value, tax reform, unplanned changes in tax laws or interpretations of law related to the amortization of R&D expenditures for tax purposes, unplanned tax payments or benefits of divestitures, changes in GAAP accounting standards, unplanned debt issuances, and unusual or non-recurring events affecting the Company by items of gain, loss or expense that are extraordinary or unusual in nature or infrequent in occurrence, including changes in applicable law or regulations. There was a $931 million adjustment required to Free Cash Flow for 2025 related to unplanned pension contributions (net of tax), a ($600) million adjustment to neutralize the impact of the change in law related to the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, and a $465 million adjustment related to Tariffs. The following table reconciles Cash from Operations to Free Cash Flow.

---

**Return on Invested Capital (ROIC)**

We define Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) as the Company's net earnings plus after-tax interest expense divided by average invested capital (total equity plus debt) after adjusting total equity by adding back adjustments related to the Company's post-retirement benefit plans. We used ROIC as a performance measure for PSUs and LTIP awards, and this metric is subject to mandatory adjustments for purposes of determining performance under the PSU and LTIP awards. The required adjustments are set out in the applicable PSU and LTIP award agreement and include changes in accounting (GAAP) standards, impacts of an acquisition or divestiture valued at more than $1 billion, tax reform or changes in tax laws or interpretations of law related to the amortization of R&D expenditures for tax purposes, noncash settlement charges associated with pension risk transfer transactions, limitations on the deductibility of interest expense, unplanned debt issuances, and unusual or non-recurring events affecting the Company by items of gain, loss or expense that are extraordinary or unusual in nature or infrequent in occurrence, including changes in applicable law or regulations and the timing or recognition of a loss on a program. For the 2023-2025 performance cycle award agreements, ROIC was calculated as set forth in the table below:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **ROIC Calculation ($M)** | **Three-Year**<br>**2023–2025** |
| Net Earnings<sup>(a)</sup> | $5758 |
| Adjustments to Net Earnings <sup>(b)</sup> | (55) |
| Interest Expense (multiplied by 79%) <sup>(a)(c)</sup> | 1023 |
| **Return** | $**6726** |
| Average Debt<sup>(d)(e)</sup> | $18280 |
| Average Equity<sup>(e)</sup> | 7349 |
| Average Adjustments to Equity<sup>(b)(e)</sup> | 92 |
| Average Benefit Plan Adjustments<sup>(e)</sup> | 8208 |
| **Average Invested Capital** | $**33929** |
| **ROIC** | **19.82%** |

---

<sup>(a)</sup>Three-year 2023-2025 values for Net Earnings and Interest Expense reflect average values over the period.

<sup>(b)</sup>Net earnings and equity were adjusted to exclude the impact of the noncash, non-operating pension settlement charge of $479 million ($377 million after-tax) due to the 2025 pension risk transfer event. Net earnings and equity were also adjusted by $176 million to neutralize the change in the law related to the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, and net earnings and equity results were adjusted by $433 million ($342 million after tax) for the timing of the recognition of a prior year loss on a specific strategic program. Net earnings and equity were also adjusted to neutralize the prior year change in interpretation of the law related to an uncertain tax position.

<sup>(c)</sup>Represents after-tax interest expense utilizing the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% in 2023-2025. Interest expense is added back to net earnings as it represents the return to debt holders. Debt is included as a component of average invested capital.

<sup>(d)</sup>Debt consists of long-term debt, including current maturities, and short-term borrowings (if any).

<sup>(e)</sup>The three-year averages are calculated using thirteen quarter point balances at the start of the plan performance period and at the end of each quarter for each of the three years in the performance period.

**Segment Operating Profit**

We define Segment Operating Profit as operating profit from our business segments before items of unallocated income and expense. This measure is used by our senior management in evaluating the performance of our business segments and is a performance goal in our annual incentive plan. This metric is subject to mandatory adjustments, which are set forth in a Compensation Committee resolution, for purposes of determining performance for the annual incentive plan. For 2025, none of the mandatory adjustments were implicated.
