“We employ a disciplined, balanced approach to capital deployment, including providing a sustainable and growing dividend for our shareholders while also investing in our business to support our customers,” the eight-time Wash100 Award recipient added.
The Falls Church, Virginia-based aerospace and defense contractor booked $9.3 billion in revenue for the first quarter, reflecting a 6 percent year-over-year increase.
