Krause Fund Research: Lockheed Martin 2024

Lockheed Martin Corporation is rated as a 'Buy' with a target price of $475 - $515, driven by increased U.S. defense spending and geopolitical tensions. The company generated $67.57 billion in revenue in 2023, with significant contributions from its Aeronautics and Space segments, and is focused on shareholder returns through dividends and stock repurchases. Risks include potential changes in U.S. defense spending and reliance on government contracts, particularly concerning the F-35 program.
