Confidence: high Filing date: 2026-07-23 Report date: 2026-06-30 Item 2.        Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations BUSINESS OVERVIEW We are a global premier systems provider of high technology products and services to the aerospace and defense industries. Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms “we,” “our,” “us,” “the Company,” and “RTX” mean RTX Corporation and its subsidiaries. We operate in three segments: Collins Aerospace (Collins), Pratt & Whitney, and Raytheon. Raytheon follows a fiscal calendar, while Collins and Pratt & Whitney use calendar quarter ends. Throughout this Form 10-Q, references to the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 for Raytheon correspond to its fiscal quarter ends of June 28, 2026 and June 29, 2025, respectively. The current status of significant factors affecting our business environment in 2026 is discussed below. For additional discussion, refer to the “Business Overview” section in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Industry Considerations Our worldwide operations can be affected by industrial, economic, and political factors on both a regional and global level. Our operations include original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and extensive related aftermarket parts and services related to our aerospace operations. Our defense business serves both domestic and international customers primarily as a prime contractor or subcontractor on a broad portfolio of defense and related programs for government customers. Our business mix also reflects the combination of shorter cycles in our commercial aerospace spares contracts and certain service contracts in our defense business, and longer cycles in our aerospace OEM and aftermarket maintenance contracts and on our defense contracts to design, develop, manufacture, or modify complex equipment. Our customers are in the public and private sectors, and our businesses reflect an extensive geographic diversification that has evolved with continued globalization. Government legislation, policies, and regulations can impact our business and operations. Changes in environmental and climate change-related laws or regulations, including regulations on greenhouse gas emissions, carbon pricing, and energy taxes, could lead to new or additional investment in product designs and facility upgrades and could increase our operational and environmental compliance expenditures, including increased energy and raw materials costs and costs associated with manufacturing changes. In addition, government and industry-driven safety and performance regulations, restrictions on aircraft engine noise and emissions, government imposed travel restrictions, and government procurement practices can impact our businesses. Collins and Pratt & Whitney serve both commercial and government aerospace customers. Revenue passenger miles (RPMs), available seat miles, and the general economic health of airline carriers and airframers, as well as the financial strength and performance of airframers, are key barometers for our commercial aerospace operations. Performance in the general aviation sector is closely tied to the overall health of the economy and is positively correlated to corporate profits. Many of our aerospace customers are covered under long-term aftermarket service agreements at both Collins and Pratt & Whitney, which are inclusive of both spare parts and services. Our defense operations are affected by U.S. Department of War (DoW) budget and spending levels, changes in demand, changes in policy positions or priorities, the domestic and global political and economic environment, and the evolving nature of the global and national security threat environment. In addition, our defense businesses engage in both direct commercial sales, which generally require U.S. government licenses and approvals, as well as foreign military sales, which are government-to-government transactions initiated by and carried out at the direction of, the U.S. government. Changes in these budget and spending levels, policies, or priorities, which are subject to U.S. domestic and foreign geopolitical risks and threats, may impact our defense businesses, including the timing of and delays in U.S. government licenses and approvals for sales, the risk of sanctions, or other restrictions. Other Matters Global, economic, and political conditions, changes in raw material and commodity prices and supply, labor availability and costs, inflation, interest rates, potential changes in U.S. government policy positions or priorities, including changes in DoW policies or priorities, geopolitical conflicts and strained intercountry relations, U.S. and non-U.S. tax law changes, foreign 31 Table of Contents currency exchange rates, sanctions, tariffs, energy costs and supply, levels of air travel, the financial condition of commercial airlines, and the impact from natural disasters and weather conditions create uncertainties that could impact our businesses. Legal Matters. As previously disclosed and described further in “Note 16: Commitments and Contingencies”, within Item 1 of this Form 10-Q under the headings “Thales-Raytheon Systems and Related Matters,” “DOJ Investigation and Contract Pricing Disputes,” and “Trade Compliance Matters”, in 2024 the Company resolved several outstanding legal matters. Pratt & Whitney Powder Metal Matter. As described further in “Note 16: Commitments and Contingencies,” within Item 1 of this Form 10-Q, in 2023, Pratt & Whitney determined that a rare condition in powder metal used to manufacture certain engine parts requires accelerated inspection of the PW1100G-JM (PW1100) Geared Turbofan (GTF) fleet, which powers the A320neo family of aircraft (A320neo) (herein referred to as the “Powder Metal Matter”). Global Supply Chain. We are dependent on a global supply chain and have experienced supply chain disruptions that resulted in delays and increased costs and adversely affected our performance. These disruptions impacted our ability to procure raw materials, including certain rare earth elements, microelectronics, and certain commodities on a timely basis and/or at expected prices, and are driven by supply chain market constraints and macroeconomic conditions, including inflation and labor market shortages. Current geopolitical conditions, including conflicts and other causes of strained intercountry relations, as well as sanctions and other trade restrictive activities, such as tariffs and export controls, are contributing to these issues. Furthermore, our suppliers and subcontractors have been impacted by these same issues. We have implemented actions and programs to mitigate some of the impacts but anticipate supply chain disruptions to continue. Economic Environment. The inflationary environment has increased material and component prices, labor rates, and supplier costs and has negatively impacted our performance, including our productivity expectations. Due to the nature of our government and commercial aerospace businesses, and their respective customer and supplier contracts, we are not always able to offset cost increases by increasing our contract value or pricing, in particular on our fixed-price contracts. Increasing material, component, and labor prices could subject us to losses in our fixed price contracts in the event of cost overruns. In addition, higher interest rates have increased the cost of borrowing and tightened the availability of capital. Among other things, these effects can constrain our customers’ purchasing power and decrease orders for our products and services and impact the ability of our customers to make payments and our suppliers to perform. Moreover, changes in the macroeconomic environment, including volatility with respect to global trade policy, interest rates, and financial markets, can lead to economic uncertainty, an economic downturn or recession and impact the demand for our products and services as well as our supply chain. We continue to pursue strategic and operational initiatives to help address these macroeconomic pressures, including our digital transformation, operational modernization, cost reduction, and advanced technology programs, and we apply our Customer Oriented Results and Excellence (CORE) operating platform to the execution of these initiatives. However, the impact of these pressures and corresponding initiatives is uncertain and subject to a range of factors and future developments. The global trade environment is highly dynamic. Since February 2025, the U.S. government has imposed tariffs on imports from all countries with which the U.S. engages in trade. In response, certain countries have announced, and in some cases imposed, tariffs, and non-tariff countermeasures on goods that are imported from the U.S. Our businesses and suppliers import goods subject to U.S. imposed tariffs, as well as goods subject to counter tariffs imposed by other countries. In February 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) on goods imported into the United States were unauthorized. The Company is the importer of record for certain products that were previously subject to IEEPA tariffs and has paid approximately $0.5 billion of such tariffs since their inception. The U.S. Court of International Trade (CIT) has ordered U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to refund the collected IEEPA tariffs. On April 20, 2026, CBP established an online portal through which companies can submit certain IEEPA tariff refund requests. On June 2, 2026, the U.S. government appealed the CIT’s order to issue refunds, however, the precise basis and scope of this appeal is currently unknown. As of June 30, 2026, the Company has submitted refund claims and has received and recognized an immaterial amount of refunds. The Company expects to submit additional refund claims and will recognize refunds if and when approved. Following the Supreme Court’s ruling invalidating IEEPA tariffs, the U.S. government imposed new and revised tariffs under various available regimes which may apply to certain products for which the Company is the importer of record. We continue to pursue available options to mitigate the impact of tariffs and countermeasures, including (i) utilizing available exemptions or exclusions to tariffs, such as trade agreements, treaties or other statutory relief, (ii) evaluating operational and supply chain changes, and (iii) where feasible, increasing the prices of our goods and services. Our results for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2026, reflect our best estimate of the impact of the tariffs then in effect. As the duration, extent and enforceability of the tariffs and counter tariffs in effect remain uncertain, we are continuing to evaluate the potential future impacts of the imposition of tariffs to our business and financial condition. Based on current conditions, we do not believe that the tariffs announced by the U.S. or counter tariffs or other actions taken by other countries will have a material adverse effect upon our results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows. However, the actual financial impacts of tariffs are dependent 32 Table of Contents upon various factors, most notably, the scope of goods covered by tariffs, the value of our imports subject to tariffs, the rate of tariffs applied, the timing and duration of tariffs, the recoverability and timing of refunds, the enforceability of tariffs and counter-tariffs, the implementation of tariff and non-tariff countermeasures by countries subject to U.S. tariffs, and our and our suppliers’ ability to mitigate the impacts of tariffs. Changes in any of these factors and actual tariff costs incurred could significantly affect the estimates inherent in our financial statements, including those used in our estimates-at-co [Excerpt truncated for page length; source filing is linked above.] ## Latest 10-K MD&A (excerpt) Latest 10-K Item 7 source: https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/101829/000010182926000006/rtx-20251231.htm Complete FY 2025 MD&A: /company/RTX/mda/fy2025/ Extracted structurally from real Item 7 body heading to real Item 7A/8 boundary.

In addition, government and industry-driven safety and performance regulations, restrictions on aircraft engine noise and emissions, government imposed travel restrictions, and government procurement practices can impact our businesses. Collins and Pratt & Whitney serve both commercial and government aerospace customers. Revenue passenger miles (RPMs), available seat miles, and the general economic health of airline carriers and airframers, as well as the financial strength and performance of airframers, are key barometers for our commercial aerospace operations. Performance in the general aviation sector is closely tied to the overall health of the economy and is positively correlated to corporate profits. Many of our aerospace customers are covered under long-term aftermarket service agreements at both Collins and Pratt & Whitney, which are inclusive of both spare parts and services. Our defense operations are affected by U.S. Department of War (DoW) (formerly referred to as the U.S. Department of Defense) budget and spending levels, changes in demand, changes in policy positions or priorities, the domestic and global political and economic environment, and the evolving nature of the global and national security threat environment. In addition, our defense businesses engage in both direct commercial sales, which generally require U.S. government licenses and approvals, as well as foreign military sales, which are government-to-government transactions initiated by, and carried out at the direction of, the U.S. government. Changes in these budget and spending levels, policies, or priorities, which are subject to U.S. domestic and foreign geopolitical risks and threats, may impact our defense businesses, including the timing of and delays in U.S. government licenses and approvals for sales, the risk of sanctions, or other restrictions. Other Matters Global, economic, and political conditions, changes in raw material and commodity prices and supply, labor availability and costs, inflation, interest rates, potential changes in U.S. government policy positions, including changes in DoW policies or priorities, geopolitical conflicts and strained intercountry relations, U.S. and non-U.S. tax law changes, foreign currency exchange rates, sanctions, tariffs, energy costs and supply, levels of air travel, the financial condition of commercial airlines, and the impact from natural disasters and weather conditions create uncertainties that could impact our businesses. Legal Matters. As previously disclosed, in 2024 the Company resolved several outstanding legal matters, herein referred to as “Resolution of Certain Legal Matters.” See “Note 17: Commitments and Contingencies,” within Item 8 of this Form 10-K, for additional information. 33 Table of Contents Pratt & Whitney Powder Metal Matter. As described further in “Note 17: Commitments and Contingencies,” within Item 8 of this Form 10-K, in 2023, Pratt & Whitney determined that a rare condition in powder metal used to manufacture certain engine parts requires accelerated inspection of the PW1100G-JM (PW1100) Geared Turbofan (GTF) fleet, which powers the A320neo family of aircraft (A320neo) (herein referred to as the “Powder Metal Matter”). Global Supply Chain. We are dependent on a global supply chain and have experienced supply chain disruptions that resulted in delays and increased costs and adversely affected our performance. These disruptions impacted our ability to procure raw materials, including certain rare earth elements, microelectronics, and certain commodities on a timely basis and/or at expected prices, and are driven by supply chain market constraints and macroeconomic conditions, including inflation and labor market shortages. Current geopolitical conditions, including conflicts and other causes of strained intercountry relations, as well as sanctions and other trade restrictive activities, such as tariffs and export controls, are contributing to these issues. Furthermore, our suppliers and subcontractors have been impacted by these same issues. We have implemented actions and programs to mitigate some of the impacts but anticipate supply chain disruptions to continue. Economic Environment. The inflationary environment has increased material and component prices, labor rates, and supplier costs and has negatively impacted our performance, including our productivity expectations. Due to the nature of our government and commercial aerospace businesses, and their respective customer and supplier contracts, we are not always able to offset cost increases by increasing our contract value or pricing, in particular on our fixed-price contracts. Increasing material, component, and labor prices could subject us to losses in our fixed price contracts in the event of cost overruns. In addition, higher interest rates have increased the cost of borrowing and tightened the availability of capital. Among other things, these effects can constrain our customers’ purchasing power and decrease orders for our products and services and impact the ability of our customers to make payments and our suppliers to perform. Moreover, changes in the macroeconomic environment, including volatility with respect to global trade policy, interest rates, and financial markets, can lead to economic uncertainty, an economic downturn or recession and impact the demand for our products and services as well as our supply chain. We continue to pursue strategic and operational initiatives to help address these macroeconomic pressures, including our digital transformation, operational modernization, cost reduction, and advanced technology programs, and we apply our Customer Oriented Results and Excellence (CORE) operating platform to the execution of these initiatives. However, the impact of these pressures and corresponding initiatives is uncertain and subject to a range of factors and future developments. The global trade environment is highly dynamic. Since February 2025, the U.S. government has imposed tariffs on imports from all countries with which the U.S. engages in trade. In response, certain countries have announced, and in some cases imposed, tariffs, and non-tariff countermeasures on goods that are imported from the U.S. Our businesses and suppliers import goods subject to U.S. imposed tariffs, as well as goods subject to counter tariffs imposed by other countries. We continue to pursue available options to mitigate the impact of tariffs and countermeasures, including (i) utilizing available exemptions or exclusions to tariffs, such as trade agreements, treaties or other statutory relief, (ii) evaluating operational and supply chain changes, and (iii) where feasible, increasing the prices of our goods and services. Our results for 2025 reflect our best estimate of the impact of the tariffs then in effect. As the duration, extent and enforceability of the tariffs and counter tariffs remain uncertain, we are continuing to evaluate the potential future impacts of the imposition of the announced tariffs to our business and financial condition. Based on current conditions, we do not believe that the tariffs announced by the U.S. or counter tariffs or other actions taken by other countries will have a material adverse effect upon our results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows. However, the actual financial impacts of tariffs are dependent upon various factors, most notably, the scope of goods covered by tariffs, the value of our imports subject to tariffs, the rate of tariffs applied, the timing and duration of tariffs, the enforceability of tariffs and counter-tariffs, the implementation of tariff and non-tariff countermeasures by countries subject to U.S. tariffs, and our and our suppliers’ ability to mitigate the impacts of tariffs. Changes in any of these factors and actual tariff costs incurred could significantly affect the estimates inherent in our financial statements, including those used in our estimates-at-completion (EACs), and estimates supporting the recoverability of our inventories, contract fulfillment costs, deferred tax assets, intangible assets and goodwill, and could have a material effect on our results of operations and cash flows in the periods recognized and paid. U.S. Government’s Budget, Tax Legislation and Executive Orders. On February 3, 2026, Congress passed and the President signed a spending package to end a U.S. government shutdown. The spending package funds the government through the end of the government’s fiscal year, with the exception of the Department of Homeland Security, which remains subject to a continuing resolution. On July 4, 2025, “An Act to Provide for Reconciliation Pursuant to Title II of the H. Con. Res. 14” (the Act) was enacted. The Act provides for several corporate tax changes including, but not limited to, restoring full expensing of domestic research and 34 Table of Contents development costs, restoring immediate deductibility of certain capital expenditures, and changes in the computations of U.S. taxat [Excerpt truncated for page length; the complete text is on the linked full-MD&A page.] Read the full FY 2025 MD&A: /company/RTX/mda/fy2025/ All MD&A years: /company/RTX/mda/ ## MD&A history Prior-year 10-K MD&A spans are extracted from SEC filings with the same bounded parser used for the latest filing.
