2012

Safest year in  

company history

International  

revenue was 

26%

of our total 2012 

revenue

Named one of  

America’s most 

community- 
minded  
companies  

in The Civic 50

We also took advantage of attractive interest rates over the longer term by issuing $1.1 

billion of 10-year debt at 2.5 percent, using the proceeds primarily to retire our 2014 and 

2015 maturities. Our next debt maturity is not due until 2018. The company ended the 

year with a strong balance sheet and net debt of $687 million.

As a technology and innovation leader, we continued our strategy of making acquisitions 

that strengthen our capabilities and help us better meet customer needs. We acquired 

SafeNet’s Government Solutions business, a world-class provider of encryption technol-

ogy  that  aligns  well  with  Raytheon’s  advanced  strategic  and  tactical  communications 

capabilities. Additionally, our acquisition of Teligy, Inc. further extends our cybersecurity 

offerings in wireless communications.

Global Technology and Innovation Leader

When we reflect on how far Raytheon has come since our founding, few in 1922 could 

have envisioned the idea of doing things like intercepting a ballistic missile in space or 

building radars powerful enough to essentially track a baseball hit out of Fenway Park in 

Boston from the old diamond at Candlestick Park in San Francisco. These were once the 

realm of science fiction, but no more: they are part of Raytheon’s rich heritage.

While  our  world  has  changed  a  lot  since  1922,  what  remains  steadfast  is  Raytheon’s 

consistent focus on excellence in technology and innovation, and tackling some of our 

customers’ hardest problems. It is what we are known for around the world, and why 

our customers know they can count on us again and again for affordable and innovative 

solutions. As a result, today we are seeing global demand for our capabilities in Missile 

Defense, ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance), electronic warfare, cyber, 

C3I (Command, Control, Communications and Intelligence) and training.

The exciting things we are doing today include continuing to break new ground with our 

air and missile defense capabilities. Raytheon’s new-production Patriot Air and Missile 

Defense system received the U.S. Army’s final stamp of approval in 2012 after undergo-

ing stringent testing, and we delivered the first upgraded Patriot radar for Kuwait. We 

received $1.4 billion in Standard Missile-3 contract awards, and the U.S. Navy awarded 

us a $313.8 million contract for low-rate initial production of Standard Missile-6 all-up 

rounds.  To  meet  this  demand,  we  opened  a  new,  state-of-the-art  missile  integration 

facility in Huntsville, Ala., where we will complete final assembly and testing of SM-3 

and SM-6 interceptors. 

Our world has changed a lot since 1922. 
What remains steadfast is Raytheon’s  
consistent focus on excellence in technology 
and innovation, and tackling some of our 
customers’ hardest problems.

Our ISR capabilities provide customers with accurate, timely and actionable information 

in many domains. In the air, our Advanced Targeting Forward Looking Infrared (ATFLIR) 

pod surpassed more than one million hours of operational flight on the U.S. Navy’s F/A-18 

Super Hornet aircraft. In space, Raytheon’s Visible Infrared Imager Radiometer Suite on 

the Suomi NPP satellite has been providing meteorologists and climate scientists with out-

standing imagery for more precise forecasts and data, in addition to some truly stunning, 

detailed images of Earth such as the “Blue Marble,” “White Marble” and “Black Marble.” 

Raytheon’s electronic warfare products have earned a worldwide reputation for perfor-

mance and reliability, and in 2012 we delivered the 700th ALR-67(V)3 radar warning 

receiver system to the U.S. Navy, and achieved the seventh year of on-time deliveries. 

Looking to the future, we have completed the development and test program for  

the ALR-69A all-digital radar warning receiver system for the U.S. Air Force, clearing  

the systems for fielding on a variety of platforms, including C-17, AC/MC/C-130 and 

F-16 aircraft. 

Building on more than 30 years of providing customers with secure information assur-

ance, Raytheon’s advanced cyber capabilities and professionals have driven the growth 

of our cyber business. We are committed to delivering cyber resiliency through a 

layered defense and are continually enhancing our cyber capabilities to protect against 

evolving threats.

In our core C3I market, we are growing our position as a leading provider of strategic 

communication terminals to provide secure, protected communications for our custom-

ers’ most sensitive missions. We are producing the Navy Multiband Terminal for the U.S. 

Navy, the Secure Mobile Anti-jam Reliable Tactical Terminal for the U.S. Army, and the 

Minuteman Minimum Essential Emergency Communications Network program upgrade 

for the U.S. Air Force. Additionally, in 2012, we were awarded a $70 million competitive 

alternate development contract from the Air Force for the Family of Advanced Beyond 

Line  of  Sight  Terminal  program  that  will  allow  for  secure  communications  between 

military aircraft, ground sites and the new higher-data-rate satellites.

Raytheon continues to transform training, and during the year, we grew our world-

class training capabilities in oil and gas safety, healthcare and cybersecurity and, inter-

nationally, in the automotive and telecommunications sectors. Our leadership in the 

training market was recognized again in 2012 with our designation as the No. 1 training 

outsource provider in HRO Today magazine’s “Baker’s Dozen” in Learning for the fourth 

year in a row, and in being named to the 2012 “Top Learning Portal Companies” and 

“Top Workforce Development Companies” lists by Training Industry, Inc.

Focused on Continuous Improvement

In today’s challenging and dynamic environment, we are focused on the things we 

can control – on continually finding new ways to deliver world-class technology while 

reducing costs and improving efficiencies. Our emphasis on continuous improvement is 

part of our DNA, and is how we have long managed and run the company.

This strategy builds on the lessons we learned during the 1990s. One of these lessons 

was the importance of common systems. Back then, we had work where we did not 

need it, and we did not have work where we really needed it. The work load was next to 

impossible to balance efficiently. That is why we have focused so much over the last few 

years on common business systems, engineering systems and people systems

Looking to the future, we have completed the development and test program for  
the ALR-69A all-digital radar warning receiver system for the U.S. Air Force, clearing  
the systems for fielding on a variety of platforms, including C-17, AC/MC/C-130 and 
F-16 aircraft. 

Building on more than 30 years of providing customers with secure information assur-
ance, Raytheon’s advanced cyber capabilities and professionals have driven the growth 
of our cyber business. We are committed to delivering cyber resiliency through a 
layered defense and are continually enhancing our cyber capabilities to protect against 
evolving threats.

In our core C3I market, we are growing our position as a leading provider of strategic 
communication terminals to provide secure, protected communications for our custom-
ers’ most sensitive missions. We are producing the Navy Multiband Terminal for the U.S. 
Navy, the Secure Mobile Anti-jam Reliable Tactical Terminal for the U.S. Army, and the 
Minuteman Minimum Essential Emergency Communications Network program upgrade 
for the U.S. Air Force. Additionally, in 2012, we were awarded a $70 million competitive 
alternate development contract from the Air Force for the Family of Advanced Beyond 
Line  of  Sight  Terminal  program  that  will  allow  for  secure  communications  between 
military aircraft, ground sites and the new higher-data-rate satellites.

Raytheon continues to transform training, and during the year, we grew our world-
class training capabilities in oil and gas safety, healthcare and cybersecurity and, inter-
nationally, in the automotive and telecommunications sectors. Our leadership in the 
training market was recognized again in 2012 with our designation as the No. 1 training 
outsource provider in HRO Today magazine’s “Baker’s Dozen” in Learning for the fourth 
year in a row, and in being named to the 2012 “Top Learning Portal Companies” and 
“Top Workforce Development Companies” lists by Training Industry, Inc.

Focused on Continuous Improvement

In today’s challenging and dynamic environment, we are focused on the things we 
can control – on continually finding new ways to deliver world-class technology while 
reducing costs and improving efficiencies. Our emphasis on continuous improvement is 
part of our DNA, and is how we have long managed and run the company.

This strategy builds on the lessons we learned during the 1990s. One of these lessons 
was the importance of common systems. Back then, we had work where we did not 
need it, and we did not have work where we really needed it. The work load was next to 
impossible to balance efficiently. That is why we have focused so much over the last few 
years on common business systems, engineering systems and people systems

throughout the company. Now we have the flexibility to quickly react to customer needs 

by using our common systems to seamlessly move work across the company, which we 

believe gives us a competitive advantage.

The Strength of the Raytheon Culture

We also draw strength from our strong Raytheon culture which marked many milestones

in 2012.

VISION
STRATEGY

Raytheon continued to deploy best-in-class Environmental, Health and Safety programs, 

and the company had the safest year in its history. Our recordable injury rate improved 

8.6% over 2011. These results are industry leading and are a product of our world-class 

processes and operating discipline.  

In the area of diversity, the company once again achieved a 100-percent score on the 

Human Rights Campaign (HRC) Corporate Equality Index, marking the eighth consecu-

STRaT eg y

tive year we have achieved this recognition. 

We increased our support of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) 

education with the launch of MathAlive!™, an interactive museum experience that 

explores exciting math-powered activities. The traveling exhibit, which debuted at the 

Smithsonian in Washington, D.C., is now on a multi-year tour of science centers and 

museums across the United States.

Our community relations efforts were recognized by the National Conference on 

Citizenship and Points of Light, when they named Raytheon one of America’s most 

community-minded companies in The Civic 50 – the first scientific evaluation used to 

rank companies that best use their time, talent and resources to improve the quality of 

life where they do business.

Collectively, these achievements reflect the strength of Raytheon’s Vision, Strategy, 

Goals and Values (VSGVs) as principles that bind each of our employees together with a 

common mission of customer success.

Ready for the Future

Our proud past and 2012 success would not have been possible without our people. 

They are world class, innovative and constantly leaning forward. Rallied around the solid 

foundation of our VSGVs, they are capable of truly amazing things; as we have seen 

from our history, things that were once thought impossible.

As we look ahead, there are always challenges. However, it is important to remember 

that this is not the first downturn we have faced. Our U.S. government customers have 

been  operating  under  various  continuing  resolutions  and  the  threat  of  sequestration 

for a while now, and the company continues to perform well. This is a testament to the 

strength of our strategy, leadership and the operating talent across the company.

We believe we have a proven strategy that is well aligned to this environment and our 

customers, both domestic and international, who still need our affordable and innova-

tive systems and solutions in a dangerous world.

For these reasons and more, we feel good about our position, our company and our future.

systems, large-scale data processing and exploitation, storage architectures and high performance data handling and processing 

Global Integrated Sensors (GIS)—GIS provides integrated whole-life air and missile defense systems. GIS produces systems 
and solutions, such as the Joint Land Attack Cruise Missile Defense Elevated Netted Sensor (JLENS), which is a theater-
based, advanced sensor system that provides long-endurance, over-the-horizon detection and tracking capabilities required 
to  defeat  hostile  cruise  missiles.  GIS  also  produces  Early Warning  Radars,  such  as  the Army  Navy/Transportable  Radar 
Surveillance-Model 2 (AN/TPY-2), the UEWR family of sensors, and the Sea-based X-band (SBX) radar, which provide 
threat detection, precision tracking, discrimination and classification of ballistic missile threats. In addition, GIS completed 
the preliminary design review contract of the Space Fence program, which is designed to detect more and smaller objects in 
low earth orbit to provide greater accuracy and timeliness to meet warfighter space situational awareness requirements. Key

U.S. Government Contracts and Regulation
We act as a prime contractor or major subcontractor for numerous U.S. Government programs. As a result, we are subject to 
extensive regulations and requirements of the U.S. Government agencies and entities that govern these programs, including 
with respect to the award, administration and performance of contracts under such programs. We are also subject to certain 
unique business risks associated with U.S. Government program funding and appropriations and government contracts, and 
with supplying technologically-advanced, cutting edge defense-related products and services to the U.S. Government. 

U.S.  Government  contracts  generally  are  subject  to  the  Federal Acquisition  Regulation  (FAR),  which  sets  forth  policies, 
procedures and requirements for the acquisition of goods and services by the U.S. Government, department-specific regulations 
that implement or supplement FAR, such as the DoD's Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS), and 
other applicable laws and regulations. These regulations impose a broad range of requirements, many of which are unique to 
government  contracting,  including  various  procurement,  import  and  export,  security,  contract  pricing  and  cost,  contract 
termination and adjustment, and audit requirements. A contractor's failure to comply with these regulations and requirements 
could result in reductions to the value of contracts, contract modifications or termination, and the assessment of penalties and 
fines and lead to suspension or debarment, for cause, from government contracting or subcontracting for a period of time. In 
addition, government contractors are also subject to routine audits and investigations by U.S. Government agencies such as 
the Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA) and Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA). These agencies review a 
contractor's performance under its contracts, cost structure and compliance with applicable laws, regulations and standards. 
The DCAA also reviews the adequacy of and a contractor's compliance with its internal control systems and policies, including 
the contractor's accounting, purchasing, property, estimating, earned value management and material management accounting 
systems.  For  a  discussion  of  certain  risks  associated  with  compliance  with  U.S.  Government  contract  regulations  and 
requirements, see Item 1A “Risk Factors” of this Form 10-K. 

U.S. Government contracts include both cost reimbursement and fixed-price contracts. Cost reimbursement contracts, subject 
to a contract-ceiling amount in certain cases, provide for the reimbursement of allowable costs plus the payment of a fee. 
These contracts fall into three basic types: (i) cost plus fixed fee contracts which provide for the payment of a fixed fee 
irrespective of the final cost of performance; (ii) cost plus incentive fee contracts which provide for increases or decreases in 
the fee, within specified limits, based upon actual cost results compared to contractual cost targets; and (iii) cost plus award 
fee contracts which provide for the payment of an award fee determined at the discretion of the customer based upon the 
performance of the contractor against pre-established criteria. Under cost reimbursement type contracts, the contractor is 
reimbursed periodically for allowable costs and is paid a portion of the fee based on contract progress. Some costs incident 
to performing contracts have been made partially or wholly unallowable for reimbursement by statute, FAR or other regulation. 
Examples of such costs include charitable contributions, certain merger and acquisition costs, lobbying costs, interest expense 
and certain litigation defense costs. 

Fixed-price contracts are either firm fixed-price contracts or fixed-price incentive contracts. Under firm fixed-price contracts, 
the contractor agrees to perform a specific scope of work for a fixed price and as a result, benefits from cost savings and carries 
the burden of cost overruns. Under fixed-price incentive contracts, the contractor shares with the government savings accrued 
from contracts performed for less than target costs and costs incurred in excess of targets up to a negotiated ceiling price 
(which is higher than the target cost) and carries the entire burden of costs exceeding the negotiated ceiling price. Accordingly, 
under such incentive contracts, the contractor's profit may also be adjusted up or down depending upon whether specified 
performance objectives are met. Under firm fixed-price and fixed-price incentive type contracts, the contractor usually receives 
either milestone payments equaling up to 90% of the contract price or monthly progress payments from the government 
generally in amounts equaling 80% of costs incurred under government contracts. The remaining amount, including profits 
or incentive fees, is billed upon delivery and acceptance of end items under the contract. Through recent initiatives, the DoD 
has expressed a preference to utilize progress payments based on costs incurred on new fixed-price contract awards as opposed 
to performance-based payments (PBPs) unless the contractor negotiates for PBPs. Generally speaking and subject to a number 
of factors, PBPs can provide improved cash flows as compared to progress payments but introduce risk to contractors in return. 
In the event we experience a greater proportion of progress payments for our fixed-price DoD contracts in the future than 
historically, it could have an adverse affect on our operating cash flow and liquidity. For a discussion of certain risks associated 
with fixed price and cost reimbursement contracts and risks associated with changes in U.S. Government procurement rules, 
regulations and business practices, see Item 1A “Risk Factors” of this Form 10-K.

U.S. Government contracts generally also permit the government to terminate the contract, in whole or in part, without prior 
notice, at the government's convenience or for default based on performance. If a contract is terminated for convenience, the 

contractor is generally entitled to payments for its allowable costs and will receive some allowance for profit on the work 

performed. If a contract is terminated for default, the contractor is generally entitled to payments for its work that has been 

accepted by the government. The U.S. Government's right to terminate its contracts has not had a material adverse effect upon 

our operations or financial condition. For a discussion of the risks associated with the U.S. Government's right to terminate 

its contracts, see Item 1A “Risk Factors” of this Form 10-K. 

U.S.  Government  programs  generally  are  implemented  by  the  award  of  individual  contracts  and  subcontracts.  Congress 

generally appropriates funds on a fiscal year basis even though a program may extend across several fiscal years. Consequently, 

programs  are  often  only  partially  funded  initially  and  additional  funds  are  committed  only  as  Congress  makes  further 

appropriations. The  contracts  and  subcontracts  under  a  program  generally  are  subject  to  termination  for  convenience  or 

adjustment if appropriations for such programs are not available or change. The U.S. Government is required to equitably 

adjust a contract price for additions or reductions in scope or other changes ordered by it. For a discussion of the risks associated 

with program funding and appropriations, see Item 1A “Risk Factors” and “Overview” within Item 7 of this Form 10-K. In 

addition, because we are engaged in supplying technologically-advanced, cutting edge defense-related products and services 

to the U.S. Government, we are subject to certain business risks, some of which are specific to our industry. These risks 

include: the cost of obtaining and retaining trained and skilled employees; the uncertainty and instability of prices for raw 

materials  and  supplies;  the  problems  associated  with  advanced  designs,  which  may  result  in  unforeseen  technological 

difficulties and cost overruns; and the intense competition and the constant necessity for improvement in facility utilization 

and  personnel  training.  Our  sales  to  the  U.S.  Government  may  be  affected  by  changes  in  procurement  policies,  budget 

considerations, changing priorities for national defense, political developments abroad and other factors. See Item 1A “Risk 

Factors” and “Overview” within Item 7 of this Form 10-K for a more detailed discussion of these and other related risks. 

We are also involved in U.S. Government programs, principally through our IIS and SAS business segments, that are classified 

by the U.S. Government and cannot be specifically described in this Form 10-K. The operating results of these classified 

programs are included in the applicable business segment's and our consolidated results of operations. The business risks and 

considerations associated with these and our international classified programs generally do not differ materially from those 

of our other programs and products. Total classified sales were 16%, 16% and 14% of total net sales in 2012, 2011 and 2010, 

respectively.

We are subject to government regulations and contract requirements that may differ from U.S. Government regulation with 

respect to our sales to non-U.S. customers. See “International Sales” below for more information regarding our sales outside 

of the U.S. and Item 1A “Risk Factors” for a discussion of the risks associated with international sales. 

See “Sales to the U.S. Government” on page 7 of this Form 10-K for information regarding the percentage of our revenues 

generated from sales to the U.S. Government.

International Sales

Our sales to customers outside the U.S., including foreign military sales through the U.S. Government, were $6.2 billion or 

26% of total net sales in 2012, $6.1 billion or 25% of total net sales in 2011, and $5.8 billion or 23% of total net sales in 2010. 

Foreign military sales through the U.S. Government were $3.2 billion, $3.0 billion and $3.3 billion, in 2012, 2011 and 2010, 

respectively. International sales were principally in the areas of air and missile defense systems, missile systems, airborne 

radars, naval systems, air traffic control systems, electronic equipment, computer software and systems, personnel training, 

equipment maintenance and microwave communications technology, and other products and services permitted under the 

International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR). Generally, we finance our foreign subsidiary working capital requirements 

in the applicable countries. Sales and income from international operations and investments are subject to U.S. Government 

laws, regulations and policies, including the ITAR and the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) and the export laws and 

regulations described below, as well as foreign government laws, regulations and procurement policies and practices, which 

may differ from U.S. Government regulation, including import-export control, investments, exchange controls, repatriation 

of earnings and requirements to expend a portion of program funds in-country. In addition, embargoes, international hostilities 

and changes in currency values can also impact our international sales. Exchange restrictions imposed by various countries 

could restrict the transfer of funds between countries and between Raytheon and its subsidiaries. We have acted to protect 

ourselves against various risks through insurance, foreign exchange contracts, contract provisions, government guarantees 

and/or progress payments. See revenues derived from external customers and long-lived assets by geographical area set forth 

in “Note 16: Business Segment Reporting” within Item 8 of this Form 10-K.

U.S. Government Contracts and Regulation

We act as a prime contractor or major subcontractor for numerous U.S. Government programs. As a result, we are subject to 

extensive regulations and requirements of the U.S. Government agencies and entities that govern these programs, including 

with respect to the award, administration and performance of contracts under such programs. We are also subject to certain 

unique business risks associated with U.S. Government program funding and appropriations and government contracts, and 

with supplying technologically-advanced, cutting edge defense-related products and services to the U.S. Government. 

U.S.  Government  contracts  generally  are  subject  to  the  Federal Acquisition  Regulation  (FAR),  which  sets  forth  policies, 

procedures and requirements for the acquisition of goods and services by the U.S. Government, department-specific regulations 

that implement or supplement FAR, such as the DoD's Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS), and 

other applicable laws and regulations. These regulations impose a broad range of requirements, many of which are unique to 

government  contracting,  including  various  procurement,  import  and  export,  security,  contract  pricing  and  cost,  contract 

termination and adjustment, and audit requirements. A contractor's failure to comply with these regulations and requirements 

could result in reductions to the value of contracts, contract modifications or termination, and the assessment of penalties and 

fines and lead to suspension or debarment, for cause, from government contracting or subcontracting for a period of time. In 

addition, government contractors are also subject to routine audits and investigations by U.S. Government agencies such as 

the Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA) and Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA). These agencies review a 

contractor's performance under its contracts, cost structure and compliance with applicable laws, regulations and standards. 

The DCAA also reviews the adequacy of and a contractor's compliance with its internal control systems and policies, including 

the contractor's accounting, purchasing, property, estimating, earned value management and material management accounting 

systems.  For  a  discussion  of  certain  risks  associated  with  compliance  with  U.S.  Government  contract  regulations  and 

requirements, see Item 1A “Risk Factors” of this Form 10-K. 

U.S. Government contracts include both cost reimbursement and fixed-price contracts. Cost reimbursement contracts, subject 

to a contract-ceiling amount in certain cases, provide for the reimbursement of allowable costs plus the payment of a fee. 

These contracts fall into three basic types: (i) cost plus fixed fee contracts which provide for the payment of a fixed fee 

irrespective of the final cost of performance; (ii) cost plus incentive fee contracts which provide for increases or decreases in 

the fee, within specified limits, based upon actual cost results compared to contractual cost targets; and (iii) cost plus award 

fee contracts which provide for the payment of an award fee determined at the discretion of the customer based upon the 

performance of the contractor against pre-established criteria. Under cost reimbursement type contracts, the contractor is 

reimbursed periodically for allowable costs and is paid a portion of the fee based on contract progress. Some costs incident 

to performing contracts have been made partially or wholly unallowable for reimbursement by statute, FAR or other regulation. 

Examples of such costs include charitable contributions, certain merger and acquisition costs, lobbying costs, interest expense 

and certain litigation defense costs. 

Fixed-price contracts are either firm fixed-price contracts or fixed-price incentive contracts. Under firm fixed-price contracts, 

the contractor agrees to perform a specific scope of work for a fixed price and as a result, benefits from cost savings and carries 

the burden of cost overruns. Under fixed-price incentive contracts, the contractor shares with the government savings accrued 

from contracts performed for less than target costs and costs incurred in excess of targets up to a negotiated ceiling price 

(which is higher than the target cost) and carries the entire burden of costs exceeding the negotiated ceiling price. Accordingly, 

under such incentive contracts, the contractor's profit may also be adjusted up or down depending upon whether specified 

performance objectives are met. Under firm fixed-price and fixed-price incentive type contracts, the contractor usually receives 

either milestone payments equaling up to 90% of the contract price or monthly progress payments from the government 

generally in amounts equaling 80% of costs incurred under government contracts. The remaining amount, including profits 

or incentive fees, is billed upon delivery and acceptance of end items under the contract. Through recent initiatives, the DoD 

has expressed a preference to utilize progress payments based on costs incurred on new fixed-price contract awards as opposed 

to performance-based payments (PBPs) unless the contractor negotiates for PBPs. Generally speaking and subject to a number 

of factors, PBPs can provide improved cash flows as compared to progress payments but introduce risk to contractors in return. 

In the event we experience a greater proportion of progress payments for our fixed-price DoD contracts in the future than 

historically, it could have an adverse affect on our operating cash flow and liquidity. For a discussion of certain risks associated 

with fixed price and cost reimbursement contracts and risks associated with changes in U.S. Government procurement rules, 

regulations and business practices, see Item 1A “Risk Factors” of this Form 10-K.

U.S. Government contracts generally also permit the government to terminate the contract, in whole or in part, without prior 

notice, at the government's convenience or for default based on performance. If a contract is terminated for convenience, the 

contractor is generally entitled to payments for its allowable costs and will receive some allowance for profit on the work 
performed. If a contract is terminated for default, the contractor is generally entitled to payments for its work that has been 
accepted by the government. The U.S. Government's right to terminate its contracts has not had a material adverse effect upon 
our operations or financial condition. For a discussion of the risks associated with the U.S. Government's right to terminate 
its contracts, see Item 1A “Risk Factors” of this Form 10-K. 

U.S.  Government  programs  generally  are  implemented  by  the  award  of  individual  contracts  and  subcontracts.  Congress 
generally appropriates funds on a fiscal year basis even though a program may extend across several fiscal years. Consequently, 
programs  are  often  only  partially  funded  initially  and  additional  funds  are  committed  only  as  Congress  makes  further 
appropriations. The  contracts  and  subcontracts  under  a  program  generally  are  subject  to  termination  for  convenience  or 
adjustment if appropriations for such programs are not available or change. The U.S. Government is required to equitably 
adjust a contract price for additions or reductions in scope or other changes ordered by it. For a discussion of the risks associated 
with program funding and appropriations, see Item 1A “Risk Factors” and “Overview” within Item 7 of this Form 10-K. In 
addition, because we are engaged in supplying technologically-advanced, cutting edge defense-related products and services 
to the U.S. Government, we are subject to certain business risks, some of which are specific to our industry. These risks 
include: the cost of obtaining and retaining trained and skilled employees; the uncertainty and instability of prices for raw 
materials  and  supplies;  the  problems  associated  with  advanced  designs,  which  may  result  in  unforeseen  technological 
difficulties and cost overruns; and the intense competition and the constant necessity for improvement in facility utilization 
and  personnel  training.  Our  sales  to  the  U.S.  Government  may  be  affected  by  changes  in  procurement  policies,  budget 
considerations, changing priorities for national defense, political developments abroad and other factors. See Item 1A “Risk 
Factors” and “Overview” within Item 7 of this Form 10-K for a more detailed discussion of these and other related risks. 

We are also involved in U.S. Government programs, principally through our IIS and SAS business segments, that are classified 
by the U.S. Government and cannot be specifically described in this Form 10-K. The operating results of these classified 
programs are included in the applicable business segment's and our consolidated results of operations. The business risks and 
considerations associated with these and our international classified programs generally do not differ materially from those 
of our other programs and products. Total classified sales were 16%, 16% and 14% of total net sales in 2012, 2011 and 2010, 
respectively.

We are subject to government regulations and contract requirements that may differ from U.S. Government regulation with 
respect to our sales to non-U.S. customers. See “International Sales” below for more information regarding our sales outside 
of the U.S. and Item 1A “Risk Factors” for a discussion of the risks associated with international sales. 

See “Sales to the U.S. Government” on page 7 of this Form 10-K for information regarding the percentage of our revenues 
generated from sales to the U.S. Government.

International Sales
Our sales to customers outside the U.S., including foreign military sales through the U.S. Government, were $6.2 billion or 
26% of total net sales in 2012, $6.1 billion or 25% of total net sales in 2011, and $5.8 billion or 23% of total net sales in 2010. 
Foreign military sales through the U.S. Government were $3.2 billion, $3.0 billion and $3.3 billion, in 2012, 2011 and 2010,

In connection with certain foreign sales, we utilize the services of sales representatives who are paid commissions in return 
for services rendered. 

The export from the U.S. of many of our products may require the issuance of a license by either the U.S. Department of State 
under the Arms Export Control Act of 1976 (formerly the Foreign Military Sales Act) and its implementing regulations under 
the ITAR, the U.S. Department of Commerce under the Export Administration Act and its implementing regulations as kept 
in force by the International Emergency Economic Powers Act of 1977 (IEEPA), and/or the U.S. Department of the Treasury 
under IEEPA or the Trading with the Enemy Act of 1917. Such licenses may be denied for reasons of U.S. national security 
or foreign policy. In the case of certain exports of defense equipment and services, the Department of State must notify Congress 
at least 15-30 days (depending on the identity of the importing country that will utilize the equipment and services) prior to 
authorizing such exports. During that time, Congress may take action to block or delay a proposed export by joint resolution 
which is subject to Presidential veto. Additional information regarding the risks associated with our international business is 
contained in Item 1A “Risk Factors” of this Form 10-K.

Backlog
Our total backlog of orders was $36.2 billion at December 31, 2012 and $35.3 billion at December 31, 2011. Included in total 
backlog was $28.5 billion and $28.4 billion from the U.S. Government at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Included 
in U.S. Government backlog was foreign military sales backlog of $5.4 billion and $6.3 billion at December 31, 2012 and 
2011, respectively. Also included in total backlog was direct foreign government backlog and non-government foreign backlog 
of $6.8 billion and $0.4 billion at December 31, 2012 and $6.1 billion and $0.5 billion at December 31, 2011, respectively. 
Also included in total backlog was $0.4 billion and $0.3 billion of non-U.S. government domestic backlog at December 31, 
2012 and 2011, respectively. Total international backlog including foreign military sales backlog was $12.7 billion or 35% of 
total backlog at the end of 2012 compared with $13.0 billion or 37% of total backlog at the end of 2011. Approximately $18.1-
$18.6 billion of the 2012 year-end backlog is not expected to be filled during the following twelve months. These amounts 
include both funded backlog (unfilled orders for which funding is authorized, appropriated and contractually obligated by the 
customer) and unfunded backlog (firm orders for which funding has not been appropriated or obligated to us). For additional 
information related to backlog figures, see “Segment Results” within Item 7 of this Form 10-K.

Research and Development
We conduct extensive research and development activities to continually enhance our existing products and services, and 
develop  new  products  and  services  to  meet  our  customers’  changing  needs  and  requirements,  and  address  new  market 
opportunities. During 2012 we expended $704 million on research and development efforts and $625 million in both 2011 
and 2010. These expenditures principally have been for product development for the U.S. Government, including bid and 
proposal efforts related to U.S. Government programs. We also conduct funded research and development activities under 
U.S.  Government  contracts  which  are  included  in  total  net  sales.  For  additional  information  related  to  our  research  and 
development activities, see “Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” within Item 8 of this Form 10-K.

Raw Materials, Suppliers and Seasonality
We are dependent upon the delivery of materials by suppliers, and the assembly of major components and subsystems by 
subcontractors used in our products. Some products require relatively scarce raw materials. In addition, we must comply with 
specific  procurement  requirements  which  may,  in  effect,  limit  the  suppliers  and  subcontractors  we  may  utilize.  In  some 
instances, for a variety of reasons, we are dependent on sole-source suppliers. We enter into long-term or volume purchase 
agreements  with  certain  suppliers  and  take  other  actions  to  ensure  the  availability  of  needed  materials,  components  and 
subsystems. We are also dependent on suppliers to provide genuine original equipment manufacturer parts and have a robust 
set of standardized policies to detect counterfeit material, especially electronic components, throughout our supply chain. We 
generally have not experienced material difficulties in procuring the necessary raw materials, components and other supplies 
for our products. We also are subject to rules promulgated by the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) in 2012 pursuant 
to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act that require public companies to conduct due diligence 
on and disclose whether certain materials (including tantalum, tin, gold and tungsten), known as conflict minerals, that originate 
from mines in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or certain adjoining countries, are used in products that we manufacture. 
The first report is due by May 31, 2014 for the 2013 calendar year and we are implementing appropriate measures to comply 
with such requirements. 

In recent years, our revenues in the second half of the year have generally exceeded revenues in the first half. The timing of 
new program awards, the availability of U.S. Government funding and product delivery schedules are among the factors 

affecting the periods in which revenues are recorded. We expect this trend to continue in 2013.

Competition

We directly participate in most major areas of development in the defense and government electronics, space, information 

technology and technical services and support markets. Technical superiority, reputation, price, past performance, delivery 

schedules, financing and reliability are among the principal competitive factors considered by customers in these markets. 

We compete worldwide with a number of U.S. and international companies in these markets, some of which may have more 

extensive or more specialized engineering, manufacturing and marketing capabilities than we do in some areas. The ongoing 

consolidation of the U.S. and global defense, space and aerospace industries continues to intensify competition. We frequently 

partner on various programs with our major suppliers, some of whom are, from time to time competitors on other programs. 

In addition, U.S. defense spending levels in the near future are increasingly difficult to predict. Changes in U.S. defense 

spending may potentially limit certain future market opportunities. See Item 1A “Risk Factors” and “Overview” within Item 7 

of this Form 10-K for a more detailed discussion of these and other related risks.

Patents and Licenses

We own an intellectual property portfolio which includes many U.S. and foreign patents, as well as unpatented trade secrets 

and know-how, data, software, trademarks and copyrights, all of which contribute to the preservation of our competitive 

position in the market. In certain instances, we have augmented our technology base by licensing the proprietary intellectual 

property of others. We also license our intellectual property to others, including our customers, in certain instances. The U.S. 

Government has licenses in our patents developed in the performance of U.S. Government contracts, and has the right to use 

and authorize others to use inventions covered by such patents for U.S. Government purposes.  While our intellectual property 

rights in the aggregate are important to the operation of Raytheon, we do not believe that any particular trade secret, patent, 

trademark, copyright, license or other intellectual property right is of such importance that its loss or termination would have 

a material adverse effect on our business.

Employment

As of December 31, 2012, we had approximately 67,800 employees. Approximately 8% of our employees are unionized. We 

consider our union-management relationships to be generally satisfactory.

Environmental Regulation

Our operations are subject to and affected by a variety of international, federal, state and local environmental protection laws 

and regulations. We have provided for the estimated cost to complete remediation—or, in the case of multi-party sites, our 

reasonably expected share thereof—where we have determined that it is probable that we will incur such costs in the future 

in connection with (i) facilities that are now, or were previously, owned or operated by us, (ii) sites where we have been named 

a  Potentially  Responsible  Party  (PRP)  by  the  Environmental  Protection Agency  (EPA)  or  similarly  designated  by  other 

environmental agencies, or (iii) sites where we have been named in a cost recovery or contribution claim by a non-governmental 

third party. It is difficult to estimate the timing and ultimate amount of environmental cleanup costs to be incurred in the future 

due to the uncertainties regarding the extent of the required cleanup, the discovery and application of innovative remediation 

technologies, and the status and interpretation of the laws and regulations. 

In order to assess the potential impact on our consolidated financial statements, we estimate the possible remediation costs 

that  we  could  reasonably  incur.  Such  estimates  take  into  consideration  the  professional  judgment  of  our  environmental 

professionals and, in most cases, consultations with outside environmental specialists. 

If we are ultimately found to have liability at a multi-party site where we have been designated a PRP or have been named in 

a cost recovery or contribution claim from a non-governmental third party, we expect that the actual costs of remediation will 

be shared with other liable PRPs. Generally, PRPs that are ultimately determined to be responsible parties are strictly liable 

for site clean-up and usually agree among themselves to share, on an allocated basis, the costs and expenses for investigation 

and  remediation  of  hazardous  materials.  Under  existing  environmental  laws,  however,  responsible  parties  are,  in  most 

circumstances and jurisdictions, jointly and severally liable and, therefore, potentially liable for the full cost of funding such 

remediation. In the unlikely event that we are required to fund the entire cost of such remediation, the statutory framework 

provides that we may pursue rights of contribution from the other PRPs. The amounts we record do not reflect the unlikely 

event that we would be required to fund the entire cost of such remediation, nor do they reflect the possibility that we may 

recover some of these environmental costs from insurance policies or from other PRPs. However, a portion of these costs is 

eligible for future recovery through the pricing of our products and services to the U.S. Government.

position in the market. In certain instances, we have augmented our technology base by licensing the proprietary intellectual 
property of others. We also license our intellectual property to others, including our customers, in certain instances. The U.S. 
Government has licenses in our patents developed in the performance of U.S. Government contracts, and has the right to use 
and authorize others to use inventions covered by such patents for U.S. Government purposes.  While our intellectual property 
rights in the aggregate are important to the operation of Raytheon, we do not believe that any particular trade secret, patent, 
trademark, copyright, license or other intellectual property right is of such importance that its loss or termination would have 
a material adverse effect on our business.

Employment
As of December 31, 2012, we had approximately 67,800 employees. Approximately 8% of our employees are unionized. We 
consider our union-management relationships to be generally satisfactory.

Environmental Regulation
Our operations are subject to and affected by a variety of international, federal, state and local environmental protection laws 
and regulations. We have provided for the estimated cost to complete remediation—or, in the case of multi-party sites, our 
reasonably expected share thereof—where we have determined that it is probable that we will incur such costs in the future 
in connection with (i) facilities that are now, or were previously, owned or operated by us, (ii) sites where we have been named 
a  Potentially  Responsible  Party  (PRP)  by  the  Environmental  Protection Agency  (EPA)  or  similarly  designated  by  other 
environmental agencies, or (iii) sites where we have been named in a cost recovery or contribution claim by a non-governmental 
third party. It is difficult to estimate the timing and ultimate amount of environmental cleanup costs to be incurred in the future 
due to the uncertainties regarding the extent of the required cleanup, the discovery and application of innovative remediation 
technologies, and the status and interpretation of the laws and regulations. 

In order to assess the potential impact on our consolidated financial statements, we estimate the possible remediation costs 
that  we  could  reasonably  incur.  Such  estimates  take  into  consideration  the  professional  judgment  of  our  environmental 
professionals and, in most cases, consultations with outside environmental specialists. 

If we are ultimately found to have liability at a multi-party site where we have been designated a PRP or have been named in 
a cost recovery or contribution claim from a non-governmental third party, we expect that the actual costs of remediation will 
be shared with other liable PRPs. Generally, PRPs that are ultimately determined to be responsible parties are strictly liable 
for site clean-up and usually agree among themselves to share, on an allocated basis, the costs and expenses for investigation 
and  remediation  of  hazardous  materials.  Under  existing  environmental  laws,  however,  responsible  parties  are,  in  most 
circumstances and jurisdictions, jointly and severally liable and, therefore, potentially liable for the full cost of funding such 
remediation. In the unlikely event that we are required to fund the entire cost of such remediation, the statutory framework 
provides that we may pursue rights of contribution from the other PRPs. The amounts we record do not reflect the unlikely 
event that we would be required to fund the entire cost of such remediation, nor do they reflect the possibility that we may 
recover some of these environmental costs from insurance policies or from other PRPs. However, a portion of these costs is 
eligible for future recovery through the pricing of our products and services to the U.S. Government.

We  manage  various  government-owned  facilities  on  behalf  of  the  U.S.  Government. At  such  facilities,  environmental 
compliance and remediation costs have historically been primarily the responsibility of the government and we relied (and 
continue to rely with respect to past practices) upon government funding to pay such costs. While the government remains 
responsible for capital and operating costs associated with environmental compliance, responsibility for fines and penalties 
associated with environmental noncompliance is typically borne by either the government or the contractor, depending on the 
contract and the relevant facts. Fines and penalties are unallowable costs under the contracts pursuant to which such facilities 
are managed. 

Most of the laws governing environmental matters include criminal provisions. If we were convicted of a criminal violation 
of certain federal environmental statutes, including the Federal Clean Air Act and the Clean Water Act, the facility or facilities 
involved in the violation would be placed by the EPA on the “Excluded Parties List” maintained by the Government Services 
Administration. The listing would continue until the EPA concluded that the cause of the violation had been cured. Listed 
facilities cannot be used in performing any U.S. Government contract awarded during any period of listing by the EPA.

environmental  claims  against  Raytheon  and  its  operations  is  contained  in  Item 1A  “Risk  Factors,”  “Commitments  and

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

This Form 10-K and the information we are incorporating by reference contain forward-looking statements within the meaning 

of federal securities laws, including information regarding our financial outlook, future plans, objectives, business prospects, 

products and services, trends and anticipated financial performance including with respect to our liquidity and capital resources, 

our backlog, our pension expense and funding, the impact of new accounting pronouncements, our unrecognized tax benefits 

and the impact and outcome of audits and legal and administrative proceedings, claims, investigations, commitments and 

contingencies, as well as information regarding domestic and international defense spending and budgets. You can identify 

these statements by the fact that they include words such as “will,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “estimate,” “intend,” 

“plan,” or variations of these words, or similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are not statements of historical 

facts and represent only our current expectations regarding such matters. These statements inherently involve a wide range 

of known and unknown uncertainties. Our actual actions and results could differ materially from what is expressed or implied 

by these statements. Specific factors that could cause such a difference include, but are not limited to, those set forth below 

and other important factors disclosed previously and from time to time in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange 

Commission. Given these factors, as well as other variables that may affect our operating results, you should not rely on 

forward-looking statements, assume that past financial performance will be a reliable indicator of future performance, nor use 

historical trends to anticipate results or trends in future periods. We expressly disclaim any obligation or intention to provide 

updates to the forward-looking statements and the estimates and assumptions associated with them.

We depend on the U.S. Government for a substantial portion of our business and changes in government defense spending 

could have consequences on our financial position, results of operations and business.

In 2012, U.S. Government sales, excluding foreign military sales, accounted for approximately 73% of our total net sales. 

Our revenues from the U.S. Government largely result from contracts awarded to us under various U.S. Government programs, 

primarily defense-related programs with the Department of Defense (DoD), as well as a broad range of programs with the 

Intelligence Community and other departments and agencies. The funding of our programs is subject to the overall U.S. 

Government budget and appropriation decisions and processes which are driven by numerous factors, including geo-political 

events, macroeconomic conditions, and the ability of the U.S. Government to enact relevant legislation, such as appropriations 

bills and accords on the debt ceiling.

Since fiscal year (FY) 2010, funding for the DoD base budget (excluding funds for overseas operations such as Afghanistan) 

has essentially flattened and has remained at approximately $530 billion. The long-range defense plans submitted with the 

FY 2013 budget request indicated a decrease of approximately 1% in the DoD base budget from this level in FY 2013, followed 

by modest increases thereafter. However, defense spending levels in the future are increasingly difficult to predict due to the 

overall fiscal constraints of the U.S. Government and the challenges of enacting relevant legislation. In particular, whether 

funding cuts required under the Budget Control Act of 2011 (BCA) are actually implemented or not will have a significant 

impact on DoD funding levels in FY 2013 and beyond. Currently, the cuts required by the BCA, unless amended by law, 

would reduce funding to the DoD by approximately $45 billion in FY 2013 and almost $500 billion over the FY 2013 - FY 

2021 period. While the Congress and the Administration have until March 1, 2013 before these cuts are implemented, it is 

not clear whether there will be an agreement to avert, either fully or in part, these cuts.

Significant changes in defense spending could have long-term consequences for our business, and any such significant changes 

could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition or liquidity. In addition, changes in 

government priorities, policies and requirements could impact the amount or timing of program funding, which could negatively 

impact our results of operations, financial condition or liquidity. 

In addition, we are involved in programs that are classified by the U.S. Government, principally through our IIS and SAS 

business segments, which have security requirements that place limits on our ability to discuss our performance on these 

programs, including any risks, disputes and claims.

Our financial performance is dependent on our ability to perform on our U.S. Government contracts, which are subject 

to uncertain levels of funding and termination. 

Our financial performance is dependent on our performance under our U.S. Government contracts. While we are involved in 

numerous programs and are party to thousands of U.S. Government contracts, the termination of one or more large contracts,

whether due to lack of funding, for convenience, or otherwise, or the occurrence of delays, cost overruns and product failures 
in connection with one or more large contracts, could negatively impact our results of operations and financial condition. 
Furthermore, we can give no assurance that we would be awarded new U.S. Government contracts to offset the revenues lost 
as a result of termination of any of our contracts. 

The funding of U.S. Government programs is subject to congressional appropriations. Congress generally appropriates funds 
on a fiscal year basis even though a program may extend over several fiscal years. Consequently, programs are often only 
partially funded initially and additional funds are committed only as Congress makes further appropriations. If appropriations 
for one of our programs become unavailable, or are reduced or delayed, our contract or subcontract under such program may 
be terminated or adjusted by the government, which could have a negative impact on our future sales under such contract or 
subcontract. When a formal appropriation bill has not been signed into law before the end of the U.S. Government's fiscal 
year, which has become more frequent in recent years, Congress may pass a Continuing Resolution (CR) that authorizes 
agencies of the U.S. Government to continue to operate, generally at the same funding levels from the prior year, but typically 
does  not  authorize  new  spending  initiatives,  during  this  period. Appropriations  can  also  be  impacted  by  other  budgetary 
considerations, such as failure to increase the statutory debt ceiling of the U.S. Government. During such period (or until the 
regular appropriation bills are passed), delays can occur in procurement of products and services due to lack of funding, and 
these delays can affect our results of operations during the period of delay. Currently, the U.S. Government is operating under 
a CR through March 27, 2013. It is unclear whether the CR will be extended or final appropriations bills will be passed by 
that date.

Appropriations can also be affected by legislation that addresses larger budgetary issues of the U.S. Government.  Examples 
include  the  BCA  and  its  sequestration  provisions  which  will,  unless  amended,  significantly  reduce  appropriations  below 
currently forecasted levels for most federal agencies, including the DoD, and legislation to raise the debt ceiling for the U.S. 
Government.

In addition, U.S. Government contracts generally also permit the government to terminate the contract, in whole or in part, 
without prior notice, at the government's convenience or for default based on performance. If one of our contracts is terminated 
for convenience, we would generally be entitled to payments for our allowable costs and would receive some allowance for 
profit on the work performed. If one of our contracts is terminated for default, we would generally be entitled to payments 
for our work that has been accepted by the government. A termination arising out of our default could expose us to liability 
and have a negative impact on our ability to obtain future contracts and orders. Furthermore, on contracts for which we are a 
subcontractor  and  not  the  prime  contractor,  the  U.S.  Government  could  terminate  the  prime  contract  for  convenience  or 
otherwise, irrespective of our performance as a subcontractor. 

Our government contracts also typically involve the development, application and manufacture of advanced defense and 
technology systems and products aimed at achieving challenging goals. New technologies may be untested or unproven. In 
some instances, product requirements or specifications may be modified. As a result, we may experience technological and 
other performance difficulties, which may result in delays, setbacks, cost overruns and product failures, in connection with 
performing our government contracts.

As a U.S. Government contractor, we are subject to extensive procurement rules and regulations and changes in such 
rules, regulations and business practice could negatively affect current programs and potential awards. 

Government contractors must also comply with specific procurement regulations and other requirements including import 
and export, security, contract pricing and cost, contract termination and adjustment, audit and product integrity requirements. 
These requirements, although customary in government contracts, impact our performance and compliance costs. In addition, 
current U.S. Government budgetary constraints could lead to changes in the procurement environment, including the DoD's 
initiatives focused on efficiencies, affordability and cost growth and other changes to its procurement practices such as changes 
in payment term preferences. If and to the extent such changes occur as a result of these initiatives or otherwise, they could 
impact our results of operations and liquidity, and could affect whether and, if so, how we pursue certain opportunities and 
the terms under which we are able to do so. 

In addition, failure to comply with the procurement regulations and requirements could result in reductions of the value of 
contracts, contract modifications or termination, cash withholds on contract payments, and the assessment of penalties and 
fines, which could negatively impact our results of operations, financial condition or liquidity. Our failure to comply with 

of the contract.

14

4/15/13   7:39 AM

these regulations and requirements could also lead to suspension or debarment, for cause, from government contracting or 

subcontracting for a period of time. Among the causes for debarment are violations of various statutes, including those related 

to  procurement  integrity,  export  control,  government  security  regulations,  employment  practices,  protection  of  the 

environment, accuracy of records and the recording of costs, and foreign corruption. The termination of a government contract 

as a result of any of these acts could have a negative impact on our results of operations and financial condition and could 

have a negative impact on our reputation and ability to procure other government contracts in the future.

Our international business is subject to geo-political and economic factors, regulatory requirements and other risks.

Our international business exposes us to geo-political and economic factors, regulatory requirements and other risks associated 

with doing business in foreign countries. These risks differ from and potentially may be greater than those associated with 

our domestic business. In 2012, our sales to customers outside the U.S. (including foreign military sales through the U.S. 

Government) accounted for 26% of our total net sales. Our exposure to such risks may increase if our international business 

continues to grow as we anticipate. 

Our international business is sensitive to changes in the priorities and budgets of international customers, which may be driven 

by changes in threat environments, geo-political uncertainties, potentially volatile worldwide economic conditions, various 

regional and local economic and political factors, risks and uncertainties and U.S. foreign policy. Our international sales are 

subject to U.S. laws, regulations and policies, including the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), the Foreign 

Corrupt Practices Act, and other export laws and regulations. Due to the nature of our products, we must first obtain licenses 

and authorizations from various U.S. Government agencies before we are permitted to sell our products outside of the U.S. 

We can give no assurance that we will continue to be successful in obtaining the necessary licenses or authorizations or that 

certain sales will not be prevented or delayed. Any significant impairment of our ability to sell products outside of the U.S. 

could negatively impact our results of operations, financial condition or liquidity. 

Our international sales are also subject to local government laws, regulations, and procurement policies and practices which 

may differ from U.S. Government regulations. These include regulations relating to import-export control, technology transfer, 

investments, exchange controls and repatriation of earnings. We must also manage a certain degree of exposure to the risk of 

currency fluctuations. International contract laws, regulations and contractual terms differ from those of the U.S. and may be 

interpreted differently by foreign courts. Our international contracts may include industrial cooperation agreements requiring 

specific in-country purchases, manufacturing agreements or financial support obligations, known as offset obligations, and 

provide for penalties if we fail to meet such requirements. Our international contracts may also be subject to termination at 

the customer's convenience or for default based on performance, and may be subject to funding risks. We also are exposed to 

risks  associated  with  using  third  party  foreign  representatives  and  consultants  for  international  sales  and  operations,  and 

teaming with international subcontractors, partners and suppliers in connection with international programs. As a result of 

these factors, we could experience financial penalties, award and funding delays on international programs and could incur 

losses on such programs which could negatively impact our results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.

Competition within our markets may reduce our revenues and market share.

We operate in highly competitive markets and our competitors may have more extensive or more specialized engineering, 

manufacturing and marketing capabilities than we do in some areas. We anticipate increasing competition in our core markets 

as a result of continued defense industry consolidation, including cross-border consolidation of competition, which has enabled 

companies to enhance their competitive position and ability to compete against us. We are also facing heightened competition 

in our domestic and international markets from foreign and multinational firms. In addition, as discussed in more detail above, 

current U.S. defense spending levels are likely to decline and future spending levels are increasingly difficult to predict. 

Increased pressure to limit U.S. defense spending and changes in the U.S. Government procurement environment may limit 

certain future market opportunities. Additionally, some customers, including the DoD, are increasingly turning to commercial 

contractors, rather than traditional defense contractors, for information technology and other support work. If we are unable 

to continue to compete successfully against our current or future competitors, we may experience declines in revenues and 

market share which could negatively impact our results of operations, financial condition or liquidity. In the current competitive 

environment there may be an increase in bid protests from unsuccessful bidders on new program awards. Generally, a bid 

protest will delay the start of contract activities, and could result in the award decision being overturned, requiring a re-bid 

 
 
whether due to lack of funding, for convenience, or otherwise, or the occurrence of delays, cost overruns and product failures 

in connection with one or more large contracts, could negatively impact our results of operations and financial condition. 

Furthermore, we can give no assurance that we would be awarded new U.S. Government contracts to offset the revenues lost 

as a result of termination of any of our contracts. 

The funding of U.S. Government programs is subject to congressional appropriations. Congress generally appropriates funds 

on a fiscal year basis even though a program may extend over several fiscal years. Consequently, programs are often only 

partially funded initially and additional funds are committed only as Congress makes further appropriations. If appropriations 

for one of our programs become unavailable, or are reduced or delayed, our contract or subcontract under such program may 

be terminated or adjusted by the government, which could have a negative impact on our future sales under such contract or 

subcontract. When a formal appropriation bill has not been signed into law before the end of the U.S. Government's fiscal 

year, which has become more frequent in recent years, Congress may pass a Continuing Resolution (CR) that authorizes 

agencies of the U.S. Government to continue to operate, generally at the same funding levels from the prior year, but typically 

does  not  authorize  new  spending  initiatives,  during  this  period. Appropriations  can  also  be  impacted  by  other  budgetary 

considerations, such as failure to increase the statutory debt ceiling of the U.S. Government. During such period (or until the 

regular appropriation bills are passed), delays can occur in procurement of products and services due to lack of funding, and 

these delays can affect our results of operations during the period of delay. Currently, the U.S. Government is operating under 

a CR through March 27, 2013. It is unclear whether the CR will be extended or final appropriations bills will be passed by 

Appropriations can also be affected by legislation that addresses larger budgetary issues of the U.S. Government.  Examples 

include  the  BCA  and  its  sequestration  provisions  which  will,  unless  amended,  significantly  reduce  appropriations  below 

currently forecasted levels for most federal agencies, including the DoD, and legislation to raise the debt ceiling for the U.S. 

that date.

Government.

In addition, U.S. Government contracts generally also permit the government to terminate the contract, in whole or in part, 

without prior notice, at the government's convenience or for default based on performance. If one of our contracts is terminated 

for convenience, we would generally be entitled to payments for our allowable costs and would receive some allowance for 

profit on the work performed. If one of our contracts is terminated for default, we would generally be entitled to payments 

for our work that has been accepted by the government. A termination arising out of our default could expose us to liability 

and have a negative impact on our ability to obtain future contracts and orders. Furthermore, on contracts for which we are a 

subcontractor  and  not  the  prime  contractor,  the  U.S.  Government  could  terminate  the  prime  contract  for  convenience  or 

otherwise, irrespective of our performance as a subcontractor. 

Our government contracts also typically involve the development, application and manufacture of advanced defense and 

technology systems and products aimed at achieving challenging goals. New technologies may be untested or unproven. In 

some instances, product requirements or specifications may be modified. As a result, we may experience technological and 

other performance difficulties, which may result in delays, setbacks, cost overruns and product failures, in connection with 

performing our government contracts.

As a U.S. Government contractor, we are subject to extensive procurement rules and regulations and changes in such 

rules, regulations and business practice could negatively affect current programs and potential awards. 

Government contractors must also comply with specific procurement regulations and other requirements including import 

and export, security, contract pricing and cost, contract termination and adjustment, audit and product integrity requirements. 

These requirements, although customary in government contracts, impact our performance and compliance costs. In addition, 

current U.S. Government budgetary constraints could lead to changes in the procurement environment, including the DoD's 

initiatives focused on efficiencies, affordability and cost growth and other changes to its procurement practices such as changes 

in payment term preferences. If and to the extent such changes occur as a result of these initiatives or otherwise, they could 

impact our results of operations and liquidity, and could affect whether and, if so, how we pursue certain opportunities and 

the terms under which we are able to do so. 

In addition, failure to comply with the procurement regulations and requirements could result in reductions of the value of 

contracts, contract modifications or termination, cash withholds on contract payments, and the assessment of penalties and 

fines, which could negatively impact our results of operations, financial condition or liquidity. Our failure to comply with 

these regulations and requirements could also lead to suspension or debarment, for cause, from government contracting or 
subcontracting for a period of time. Among the causes for debarment are violations of various statutes, including those related 
to  procurement  integrity,  export  control,  government  security  regulations,  employment  practices,  protection  of  the 
environment, accuracy of records and the recording of costs, and foreign corruption. The termination of a government contract 
as a result of any of these acts could have a negative impact on our results of operations and financial condition and could 
have a negative impact on our reputation and ability to procure other government contracts in the future.

Our international business is subject to geo-political and economic factors, regulatory requirements and other risks.

Our international business exposes us to geo-political and economic factors, regulatory requirements and other risks associated 
with doing business in foreign countries. These risks differ from and potentially may be greater than those associated with 
our domestic business. In 2012, our sales to customers outside the U.S. (including foreign military sales through the U.S. 
Government) accounted for 26% of our total net sales. Our exposure to such risks may increase if our international business 
continues to grow as we anticipate. 

Our international business is sensitive to changes in the priorities and budgets of international customers, which may be driven 
by changes in threat environments, geo-political uncertainties, potentially volatile worldwide economic conditions, various 
regional and local economic and political factors, risks and uncertainties and U.S. foreign policy. Our international sales are 
subject to U.S. laws, regulations and policies, including the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), the Foreign 
Corrupt Practices Act, and other export laws and regulations. Due to the nature of our products, we must first obtain licenses 
and authorizations from various U.S. Government agencies before we are permitted to sell our products outside of the U.S. 
We can give no assurance that we will continue to be successful in obtaining the necessary licenses or authorizations or that 
certain sales will not be prevented or delayed. Any significant impairment of our ability to sell products outside of the U.S. 
could negatively impact our results of operations, financial condition or liquidity. 

Our international sales are also subject to local government laws, regulations, and procurement policies and practices which 
may differ from U.S. Government regulations. These include regulations relating to import-export control, technology transfer, 
investments, exchange controls and repatriation of earnings. We must also manage a certain degree of exposure to the risk of 
currency fluctuations. International contract laws, regulations and contractual terms differ from those of the U.S. and may be 
interpreted differently by foreign courts. Our international contracts may include industrial cooperation agreements requiring 
specific in-country purchases, manufacturing agreements or financial support obligations, known as offset obligations, and 
provide for penalties if we fail to meet such requirements. Our international contracts may also be subject to termination at 
the customer's convenience or for default based on performance, and may be subject to funding risks. We also are exposed to 
risks  associated  with  using  third  party  foreign  representatives  and  consultants  for  international  sales  and  operations,  and 
teaming with international subcontractors, partners and suppliers in connection with international programs. As a result of 
these factors, we could experience financial penalties, award and funding delays on international programs and could incur 
losses on such programs which could negatively impact our results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.

Competition within our markets may reduce our revenues and market share.

We operate in highly competitive markets and our competitors may have more extensive or more specialized engineering, 
manufacturing and marketing capabilities than we do in some areas. We anticipate increasing competition in our core markets 
as a result of continued defense industry consolidation, including cross-border consolidation of competition, which has enabled 
companies to enhance their competitive position and ability to compete against us. We are also facing heightened competition 
in our domestic and international markets from foreign and multinational firms. In addition, as discussed in more detail above, 
current U.S. defense spending levels are likely to decline and future spending levels are increasingly difficult to predict. 
Increased pressure to limit U.S. defense spending and changes in the U.S. Government procurement environment may limit 
certain future market opportunities. Additionally, some customers, including the DoD, are increasingly turning to commercial 
contractors, rather than traditional defense contractors, for information technology and other support work. If we are unable 
to continue to compete successfully against our current or future competitors, we may experience declines in revenues and 
market share which could negatively impact our results of operations, financial condition or liquidity. In the current competitive 
environment there may be an increase in bid protests from unsuccessful bidders on new program awards. Generally, a bid 
protest will delay the start of contract activities, and could result in the award decision being overturned, requiring a re-bid 
of the contract.

Our future success depends on our ability to develop new offerings and technologies for our current and future markets.

Our business could be adversely affected by a negative audit or investigatory finding by the U.S. Government.

To achieve our business strategies and continue to grow our revenues and operating profit, we must successfully develop new 
or  adapt  or  modify  our  existing  offerings  and  technologies  for  our  current  core  defense  markets  and  our  future  markets, 
including new growth and emerging markets. Accordingly, our future performance depends on a number of factors, including 
our ability to:

Identify the needs of, and growth opportunities in, new and emerging markets;
Identify emerging technological and other trends in our current and future markets;
Identify additional uses for our existing technology to address customer needs in our current and future markets; 

– 
– 
– 
–  Develop and maintain competitive products and services for our current and future markets; 
–  Enhance our offerings by adding innovative features that differentiate our offerings from those of our competitors;
–  Develop and manufacture and bring solutions to market quickly at cost-effective prices; and
–  Effectively  structure  our  businesses,  through  the  use  of  joint  ventures,  collaborative  agreements  and  other  forms  of 

alliances, to reflect the competitive environment.

We believe that, in order to remain competitive in the future, we will need to continue to invest significant financial resources 
to  develop  new  and  adapt  or  modify  our  existing  offerings  and  technologies,  including  through  internal  research  and 
development, acquisitions and joint ventures or other teaming arrangements. These expenditures could divert our attention 
and resources from other projects, and we cannot be sure that these expenditures will ultimately lead to the timely development 
of new offerings and technologies. Due to the design complexity of our products, we may in the future experience delays in 
completing the development and introduction of new products. Any delays could result in increased costs of development or 
deflect resources from other projects. In addition, there can be no assurance that the market for our offerings will develop or 
continue to expand as we currently anticipate. The failure of our technology to gain market acceptance could significantly 
reduce our revenues and harm our business. Furthermore, we cannot be sure that our competitors will not develop competing 
technologies which gain market acceptance in advance of our products. 

The possibility exists that our competitors might develop new technology or offerings that might cause our existing technology 
and offerings to become obsolete. If we fail in our new product development efforts or our products or services fail to achieve 
market acceptance more rapidly than our competitors, our ability to procure new contracts could be negatively impacted, 
which would negatively impact our results of operations and financial condition.

We enter into fixed-price and other contracts which could subject us to losses in the event that we experience cost growth 
that cannot be billed to customers.

Generally, our customer contracts are either fixed-priced or cost reimbursable contracts. Under fixed-priced contracts, which 
represent approximately 60% of our backlog, we receive a fixed price irrespective of the actual costs we incur and, consequently, 
we must carry the burden of any cost overruns. Due to their nature, fixed-priced contracts inherently have more risk than cost 
reimbursable contracts, particularly fixed-price development contracts where the costs to complete the development stage of 
the program can be highly variable, uncertain and difficult to estimate. Under cost reimbursable contracts, subject to a contract-
ceiling amount in certain cases, we are reimbursed for allowable costs and paid a fee, which may be fixed or performance 
based. If our costs exceed the contract ceiling and are not authorized by the customer or are not allowable under the contract 
or applicable regulations, we may not be able to obtain reimbursement for all such costs and our fees may be reduced or 
eliminated.  Because  many  of  our  contracts  involve  advanced  designs  and  innovative  technologies,  we  may  experience 
unforeseen technological difficulties and cost overruns. Under both types of contracts, if we are unable to control costs or if 
our initial cost estimates are incorrect, we can lose money on these contracts. In addition, some of our contracts have provisions 
relating to cost controls and audit rights, and if we fail to meet the terms specified in those contracts, we may not realize their 
full  benefits.  Lower  earnings  caused  by  cost  overruns  and  cost  controls  would  have  a  negative  impact  on  our  results  of 
operations.

As a government contractor, we are subject to audits and investigations by U.S. Government agencies including the Defense 

Contract Audit Agency (DCAA), the Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA), the Inspector General of the DoD and 

other departments and agencies, the Government Accountability Office, the Department of Justice (DoJ) and Congressional 

Committees. From time to time, these and other agencies investigate or conduct audits to determine whether a contractor’s 

operations are being conducted in accordance with applicable requirements. The DCAA and DCMA also review the adequacy 

of and a contractor's compliance with its internal control systems and policies, including the contractor's accounting, purchasing, 

property, estimating, earned value management and material management accounting systems. Our final allowable incurred 

costs for each year are also subject to audit and have from time to time resulted in disputes between us and the U.S. Government. 

In addition, the DoJ has, from time to time, convened grand juries to investigate possible irregularities by us. Any costs found 

to be improperly allocated to a specific contract will not be reimbursed or must be refunded if already reimbursed. If an audit 

or investigation uncovers improper or illegal activities, we may be subject to civil and criminal penalties and administrative 

sanctions, which may include termination of contracts, forfeiture of profits, suspension of payments, fines and suspension or 

prohibition from doing business with the U.S. Government. In addition, we could suffer serious reputational harm if allegations 

of impropriety were made against us. 

We depend on component availability, subcontractor performance and our key suppliers to manufacture and deliver our 

products and services. 

We are dependent upon the delivery by suppliers of materials and the assembly by subcontractors of major components and 

subsystems used in our products in a timely and satisfactory manner and in full compliance with applicable terms and conditions. 

Some products require relatively scarce raw materials. We are generally subject to specific procurement requirements, including 

but not limited to the requirements for genuine original equipment manufacturer parts, which may, in effect, limit the suppliers 

and subcontractors we may utilize. In some instances, we are dependent on sole-source suppliers. If any of these suppliers or 

subcontractors fails to meet our needs, we may not have readily available alternatives. While we enter into long-term or volume 

purchase agreements with certain suppliers and take other actions to ensure the availability of needed materials, components 

and subsystems, we cannot be sure that such items will be available in the quantities we require, if at all. In addition, some 

of  our  suppliers  or  subcontractors,  especially  smaller  entities,  may  continue  to  be  impacted  by  volatile  global  economic 

conditions, which could impair their ability to meet their obligations to us. If we experience a material supplier or subcontractor 

problem, our ability to satisfactorily and timely complete our customer obligations could be negatively impacted which could 

result in reduced sales, termination of contracts and damage to our reputation and relationships with our customers. We could 

also incur additional costs in addressing such a problem. Any of these events could have a negative impact on our results of 

operations, financial condition or liquidity. 

We use estimates in accounting for many of our programs and changes in our estimates could adversely affect our future 

financial results. 

Contract accounting requires judgment relative to assessing risks, including risks associated with customer directed delays 

and reductions in scheduled deliveries, unfavorable resolutions of claims and contractual matters, judgments associated with 

estimating contract revenues and costs, and assumptions for schedule and technical issues. Due to the size and nature of many 

of our contracts, the estimation of total revenues and cost at completion is complicated and subject to many variables. For 

example, we must make assumptions regarding the length of time to complete the contract because costs also include expected 

increases in wages and prices for materials; consider whether the intent of entering into multiple contracts was effectively to 

enter into a single project in order to determine whether such contracts should be combined or segmented; consider incentives 

or penalties related to performance on contracts in estimating sales and profit rates, and record them when there is sufficient 

information for us to assess anticipated performance; and use estimates of award fees in estimating sales and profit rates based 

on actual and anticipated awards. Because of the significance of the judgments and estimation processes described above, it 

is likely that materially different amounts could be recorded if we used different assumptions or if the underlying circumstances 

were to change. Changes in underlying assumptions, circumstances or estimates may adversely affect our future results of 

operations and financial condition.

Significant changes in key estimates and assumptions, such as discount rates and assumed long-term return on assets 
(ROA), as well as our actual investment returns on our pension plan assets, and other factors could affect our earnings, 
equity and pension contributions in future periods. 

We must determine our pension and other benefit plans' expense or income which involves significant judgment, particularly 
with respect to our discount rate, long-term ROA and other actuarial assumptions. If our assumptions change significantly 
due to changes in economic, legislative, and/or demographic experience or circumstances, our pension and other benefit plans' 
expense and funded status, and our cash contributions to such plans could negatively change which would negatively impact 
our results of operations. In addition, differences between our actual investment returns and our long-term ROA assumption 
would result in a change to our pension and other benefit plans' expense and funded status and our required contributions to 
the plans. They may also be impacted by changes in regulatory, accounting and other requirements applicable to pensions.   

For a complete discussion regarding how our financial statements can be affected by pension and other benefit plan accounting 
policies, see “Critical Accounting Estimates” beginning on page 34 within Item 7 of this Form 10-K. 

We have made, and expect to continue to make, strategic acquisitions and investments, and these activities involve risks 
and uncertainties. 

In pursuing our business strategies, we continually review, evaluate and consider potential investments and acquisitions. In 
evaluating  such  transactions,  we  are  required  to  make  difficult  judgments  regarding  the  value  of  business  opportunities, 
technologies and other assets, and the risks and cost of potential liabilities. Furthermore, acquisitions and investments involve 
certain  other  risks  and  uncertainties,  including  the  difficulty  in  integrating  newly-acquired  businesses,  the  challenges  in 
achieving strategic objectives and other benefits expected from acquisitions or investments, the diversion of our attention and 
resources from our operations and other initiatives, the potential impairment of acquired assets, and the potential loss of key 
employees and customers of the acquired businesses. 

We have entered, and expect to continue to enter, into joint venture, teaming and other arrangements, and these activities 
involve risks and uncertainties. 

We have entered, and expect to continue to enter, into joint venture, teaming and other collaborative arrangements. These 
activities  involve  risks  and  uncertainties,  including  the  risk  of  the  joint  venture  or  applicable  entity  failing  to  satisfy  its 
obligations, which may result in certain liabilities to us for guarantees and other commitments, the challenges in achieving 
strategic objectives and expected benefits of the business arrangement, the risk of conflicts arising between us and our partners 
and the difficulty of managing and resolving such conflicts, and the difficulty of managing or otherwise monitoring such 
business arrangements.

Goodwill and other intangible assets represent a significant portion of our assets and any impairment of these assets could 
negatively impact our results of operations. 

At  December 31,  2012,  we  had  goodwill  and  other  intangible  assets  of  approximately  $13.4  billion,  net  of  accumulated 
amortization, which represented approximately 50% of our total assets. Our goodwill is subject to an impairment test on an 
annual basis and is also tested whenever events and circumstances indicate that goodwill may be impaired. Any excess goodwill 
resulting from the impairment test must be written off in the period of determination. Intangible assets (other than goodwill) 
are generally amortized over the useful life of such assets. In addition, from time to time, we may acquire or make an investment 
in a business which will require us to record goodwill based on the purchase price and the value of the acquired assets. We 
may subsequently experience unforeseen issues which adversely affect the value of our goodwill or the intangible assets and 
trigger an evaluation of the recoverability of the recorded goodwill and intangible assets. Future determinations of significant 
write-offs of goodwill or intangible assets as a result of an impairment test or any accelerated amortization of other intangible 
assets could have a negative impact on our results of operations and financial condition.

The outcome of litigation in which we have been named as a defendant is unpredictable and an adverse decision in any 

such matter could have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations. 

We are defendants in a number of litigation matters and are subject to various other claims, demands and investigations. These 

matters may divert financial and management resources that would otherwise be used to benefit our operations. No assurances 

can be given that the results of these matters will be favorable to us. An adverse resolution or outcome of any of these lawsuits, 

claims, demands or investigations could have a negative impact on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

We depend on the recruitment and retention of qualified personnel, and our failure to attract and retain such personnel 

could seriously harm our business. 

Due to the specialized nature of our business, our future performance is highly dependent upon the continued services of our 

key engineering personnel and executive officers, the development of additional management personnel and the hiring of new 

qualified  engineering,  manufacturing,  marketing,  sales  and  management  personnel  for  our  operations.  Competition  for 

personnel is intense, and we may not be successful in attracting or retaining qualified personnel. In addition, certain personnel 

may be required to receive security clearance and substantial training in order to work on certain programs or perform certain 

tasks. The loss of key employees, our inability to attract new qualified employees or adequately train employees, or the delay 

in hiring key personnel could seriously harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our business could be negatively impacted by cybersecurity threats and other security threats and disruptions. 

As a U.S. defense contractor, we face certain security threats, including threats to our information technology infrastructure, 

attempts to gain access to our proprietary or classified information, threats to physical security, and possible domestic terrorism 

events. Our information technology networks and related systems are critical to the operation of our business and essential to 

our ability to successfully perform day-to-day operations. We are also involved with information technology systems for 

certain customers and other third parties, which generally face similar security threats. Cybersecurity threats in particular, are 

persistent, evolve quickly and include, but are not limited to, computer viruses, attempts to access information, denial of 

service and other electronic security breaches. We believe we have implemented appropriate measures and controls and we 

have invested in highly skilled IT resources to appropriately identify threats and mitigate potential risks, but there can be no 

assurance that such actions will be sufficient to prevent disruptions to mission critical systems, the unauthorized release of 

confidential information or corruption of data. Although we have in the past and will in the future be the subject of such 

cybersecurity  incidents,  to  date  none  had  a  material  impact  on  our  financial  condition,  results  of  operations  or  liquidity. 

Nonetheless, these types of events could disrupt our operations or customer and other third party IT systems in which we are 

involved. They also could require significant management attention and resources, and could negatively impact our reputation 

among our customers and the public, which could have a negative impact on our financial condition, results of operations or 

Some of our workforce is represented by labor unions so our business could be harmed in the event of a prolonged work

stoppage. 

Approximately  5,300  of  our  employees  are  unionized,  which  represents  approximately  8%  of  our  employee-base  at 

December 31, 2012. As a result, we may experience work stoppages, which could adversely affect our business. We cannot 

predict how stable our union relationships will be or whether we will be able to successfully negotiate successor agreements 

without impacting our financial condition. In addition, the presence of unions may limit our flexibility in dealing with our 

workforce. Work stoppages could negatively impact our ability to manufacture our products on a timely basis, which could 

negatively impact our results of operations and financial condition.

certain  other  risks  and  uncertainties,  including  the  difficulty  in  integrating  newly-acquired  businesses,  the  challenges  in 

achieving strategic objectives and other benefits expected from acquisitions or investments, the diversion of our attention and 

resources from our operations and other initiatives, the potential impairment of acquired assets, and the potential loss of key 

employees and customers of the acquired businesses. 

We have entered, and expect to continue to enter, into joint venture, teaming and other arrangements, and these activities 

involve risks and uncertainties. 

We have entered, and expect to continue to enter, into joint venture, teaming and other collaborative arrangements. These 

activities  involve  risks  and  uncertainties,  including  the  risk  of  the  joint  venture  or  applicable  entity  failing  to  satisfy  its 

obligations, which may result in certain liabilities to us for guarantees and other commitments, the challenges in achieving 

strategic objectives and expected benefits of the business arrangement, the risk of conflicts arising between us and our partners 

and the difficulty of managing and resolving such conflicts, and the difficulty of managing or otherwise monitoring such 

business arrangements.

Goodwill and other intangible assets represent a significant portion of our assets and any impairment of these assets could 

negatively impact our results of operations. 

At  December 31,  2012,  we  had  goodwill  and  other  intangible  assets  of  approximately  $13.4  billion,  net  of  accumulated 

amortization, which represented approximately 50% of our total assets. Our goodwill is subject to an impairment test on an 

annual basis and is also tested whenever events and circumstances indicate that goodwill may be impaired. Any excess goodwill 

resulting from the impairment test must be written off in the period of determination. Intangible assets (other than goodwill) 

are generally amortized over the useful life of such assets. In addition, from time to time, we may acquire or make an investment 

in a business which will require us to record goodwill based on the purchase price and the value of the acquired assets. We 

may subsequently experience unforeseen issues which adversely affect the value of our goodwill or the intangible assets and 

trigger an evaluation of the recoverability of the recorded goodwill and intangible assets. Future determinations of significant 

write-offs of goodwill or intangible assets as a result of an impairment test or any accelerated amortization of other intangible 

assets could have a negative impact on our results of operations and financial condition.

We are defendants in a number of litigation matters and are subject to various other claims, demands and investigations. These 
matters may divert financial and management resources that would otherwise be used to benefit our operations. No assurances 
can be given that the results of these matters will be favorable to us. An adverse resolution or outcome of any of these lawsuits, 
claims, demands or investigations could have a negative impact on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

We depend on the recruitment and retention of qualified personnel, and our failure to attract and retain such personnel 
could seriously harm our business. 

Due to the specialized nature of our business, our future performance is highly dependent upon the continued services of our 
key engineering personnel and executive officers, the development of additional management personnel and the hiring of new 
qualified  engineering,  manufacturing,  marketing,  sales  and  management  personnel  for  our  operations.  Competition  for 
personnel is intense, and we may not be successful in attracting or retaining qualified personnel. In addition, certain personnel 
may be required to receive security clearance and substantial training in order to work on certain programs or perform certain 
tasks. The loss of key employees, our inability to attract new qualified employees or adequately train employees, or the delay 
in hiring key personnel could seriously harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our business could be negatively impacted by cybersecurity threats and other security threats and disruptions. 

As a U.S. defense contractor, we face certain security threats, including threats to our information technology infrastructure, 
attempts to gain access to our proprietary or classified information, threats to physical security, and possible domestic terrorism 
events. Our information technology networks and related systems are critical to the operation of our business and essential to 
our ability to successfully perform day-to-day operations. We are also involved with information technology systems for 
certain customers and other third parties, which generally face similar security threats. Cybersecurity threats in particular, are 
persistent, evolve quickly and include, but are not limited to, computer viruses, attempts to access information, denial of 
service and other electronic security breaches. We believe we have implemented appropriate measures and controls and we 
have invested in highly skilled IT resources to appropriately identify threats and mitigate potential risks, but there can be no 
assurance that such actions will be sufficient to prevent disruptions to mission critical systems, the unauthorized release of 
confidential information or corruption of data. Although we have in the past and will in the future be the subject of such 
cybersecurity  incidents,  to  date  none  had  a  material  impact  on  our  financial  condition,  results  of  operations  or  liquidity. 
Nonetheless, these types of events could disrupt our operations or customer and other third party IT systems in which we are 
involved. They also could require significant management attention and resources, and could negatively impact our reputation 
among our customers and the public, which could have a negative impact on our financial condition, results of operations or 
liquidity.

Some of our workforce is represented by labor unions so our business could be harmed in the event of a prolonged work 
stoppage. 

Approximately  5,300  of  our  employees  are  unionized,  which  represents  approximately  8%  of  our  employee-base  at 
December 31, 2012. As a result, we may experience work stoppages, which could adversely affect our business. We cannot 
predict how stable our union relationships will be or whether we will be able to successfully negotiate successor agreements 
without impacting our financial condition. In addition, the presence of unions may limit our flexibility in dealing with our 
workforce. Work stoppages could negatively impact our ability to manufacture our products on a timely basis, which could 
negatively impact our results of operations and financial condition.

We may be unable to adequately protect our intellectual property rights, which could affect our ability to compete. 

Unanticipated changes in our tax provisions or exposure to additional income tax liabilities could affect our profitability. 

We own many U.S. and foreign patents and patent applications, and have rights in unpatented know-how, data, software, 
trademarks  and  copyrights. The  U.S.  Government  has  licenses  under  certain  of  our  patents  and  certain  other  intellectual 
property that are developed or used in performance of government contracts, and it may use or authorize others to use such 
patents and intellectual property for government and other purposes. There can be no assurance that any of our patents and 
other intellectual property will not be challenged, invalidated, misappropriated or circumvented by third parties. In some 
instances, we have augmented our technology base by licensing the proprietary intellectual property of others. In the future, 
we may not be able to obtain necessary licenses on commercially reasonable terms. We enter into confidentiality and invention 
assignment agreements with our  employees and  enter  into  non-disclosure agreements with our  suppliers and appropriate 
customers so as to limit access to and prevent disclosure of our proprietary information. These measures may not suffice to 
deter misappropriation or third party development of similar technologies. Moreover, the laws concerning intellectual property 
vary among nations and the protection provided to our intellectual property by the laws and courts of foreign nations may not 
be as advantageous to us as the remedies available under U.S. law.

Our operations expose us to the risk of material environmental liabilities. 

We use and generate hazardous substances and wastes in our manufacturing operations. As a result, we are subject to potentially 
material liabilities related to personal injuries or property damages that may be caused by hazardous substance releases and 
exposures. For example, we are investigating and remediating contamination related to past practices at a number of properties 
and, in some cases, have been named as a defendant in related “toxic tort” claims for costs of cleanup and property damages. 

We are also subject to laws and regulations that: (i) impose requirements for the proper management, treatment, storage and 
disposal of hazardous substances and wastes; (ii) restrict air and water emissions from our manufacturing operations (including 
government-owned facilities we manage); and (iii) require maintenance of a safe workplace. These laws and regulations can 
impose substantial fines and criminal sanctions for violations, and may require the installation of costly pollution control 
equipment or operational changes to limit pollution emissions and/or decrease the likelihood of accidental hazardous substance 
releases. 

If we were convicted of a criminal violation of certain federal environmental statutes, including the Federal Clean Air Act 
and the Clean Water Act, the facility or facilities involved in the violation would be placed by the Environmental Protection 
Agency (EPA) on the “Excluded Parties List” maintained by the Government Services Administration. The listing would 
continue until the EPA concluded that the cause of the violation had been cured. Listed facilities cannot be used in performing 
any U.S. Government contract awarded during any period of listing by the EPA.

We incur, and expect to continue to incur, capital and operating costs to comply with these laws and regulations. In addition, 
new laws and regulations, changes in the interpretation and enforcement of existing laws and regulations, the discovery of 
previously unknown contamination, or the imposition of new clean-up standards could require us to incur costs in the future 
that would have a negative effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

We face certain significant risk exposures and potential liabilities that may not be adequately covered by indemnity or 
insurance. 

A significant portion of our business relates to designing, developing and manufacturing advanced defense and technology 
systems and products. New technologies may be untested or unproven. In addition, we may incur significant liabilities that 
are unique to our products and services, including missile systems, command and control systems, border security systems, 
and air traffic management systems. In some, but not all, circumstances, we may be entitled to indemnification from our 
customers, either through contractual provisions, qualification of our products and services by the Department of Homeland 
Security under the SAFETY Act provisions of the Homeland Security Act of 2002, or otherwise. The amount of our insurance 
coverage we maintain or indemnification to which we may be contractually or otherwise entitled may not be adequate to cover 
all claims or liabilities, and it is not possible to obtain insurance or indemnification coverage to protect against all operational 
risks and liabilities. Accordingly, we may be forced to bear substantial costs resulting from risks and uncertainties of our 
business which would negatively impact our results of operations, financial condition or liquidity. 

We  are  subject  to  income  taxes  in  the  United  States  and  many  foreign  jurisdictions.  Significant  judgment  is  required  in 

determining our worldwide provision for income taxes. In the ordinary course of our business, there are many transactions 

and calculations where the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. Furthermore, changes in domestic or foreign income tax 

laws and regulations, or their interpretation, could result in higher or lower income tax rates assessed or changes in the taxability 

of certain sales or the deductibility of certain expenses, thereby affecting our income tax expense and profitability. In addition, 

we  regularly  are  under  audit  by  tax  authorities. The  final  determination  of  tax  audits  and  any  related  litigation  could  be 

materially different from our historical income tax provisions and accruals. Additionally, changes in the geographic mix of 

our sales could also impact our tax liabilities and affect our income tax expense and profitability.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

We and our subsidiaries operate in a number of plants, laboratories, warehouses and office facilities in the U.S. and abroad.

As of December 31, 2012, we owned, leased and/or utilized (through operating agreements) approximately 29 million square 

feet of floor space for manufacturing, engineering, research, administration, sales and warehousing, approximately 93% of 

which was located in the U.S. Of such total, approximately 47% was owned (or held under a long-term ground lease with 

ownership of the improvements), approximately 48% was leased, and approximately 5% was made available under facilities 

contracts for use in the performance of U. S. Government contracts. Of the 29 million square feet of floor space owned, leased 

and/or utilized by us, approximately 417,218 square feet was leased or subleased to unrelated third parties. In addition to the 

29 million square feet, we owned or leased approximately 775,674 square feet of floor space that was vacant.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We primarily engage in providing products and services under contracts with the U.S. Government and, to a lesser degree, 
under direct foreign sales contracts, some of which the U.S. Government funds. As a government contractor, we are subject 
to many levels of audit and investigation by the U.S. Government relating to our contract performance and compliance with 
applicable rules and regulations. Agencies that oversee contract performance include: the Defense Contract Audit Agency, 
the  Defense  Contract  Management Agency,  the  Inspector  General  of  the  DoD  and  other  departments  and  agencies,  the 
Government Accountability Office, the DoJ and Congressional Committees. From time to time, these and other agencies 
investigate  or  conduct  audits  to  determine  whether  our  operations  are  being  conducted  in  accordance  with  applicable 
requirements. Such investigations and audits could result in administrative, civil or criminal liabilities, including repayments, 
fines or penalties being imposed upon us, the suspension of government export licenses or the suspension or debarment from 
future U.S. Government contracting. U.S. Government investigations often take years to complete and many result in no 
adverse action against us. Our final allowable incurred costs for each year are also subject to audit and have from time to time 
resulted in disputes between us and the U.S. Government with litigation resulting at the Court of Federal Claims (COFC) or 
the Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals (ASBCA) or their related courts of appeals. In addition, the DoJ has, from 
time to time, convened grand juries to investigate possible irregularities by us. We also provide products and services to 
customers outside of the U.S. and those sales are subject to local government laws, regulations, and procurement policies and 
practices. Our compliance with such local government regulations or any applicable U.S. Government regulations (e.g., the 
Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and ITAR) may also be investigated or audited. Other than as specifically disclosed in this Form 
10-K, we do not expect these audits, investigations or disputes to have a material effect on our financial position, results of 
operations or liquidity, either individually or in the aggregate.

We have completed a self-initiated internal review of certain of our international operations, focusing on compliance with the 
Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. In the course of the review, we identified possible areas of concern involving certain practices 
related to operations in a foreign jurisdiction where we do business. We voluntarily disclosed and shared the results of our 
review with the SEC and the DoJ. The SEC staff and the DoJ have completed their review of this matter without recommending 
enforcement action.

On August 18, 2010, the U.K. Border Agency (UKBA) initiated arbitration proceedings in the London Court of International 
Arbitration against Raytheon Systems Limited (RSL) in connection with the parties' dispute with respect to the UKBA's 
termination of RSL for cause on a program. The UKBA claimed that RSL had failed to perform on certain key milestones and 
other matters and that the UKBA was entitled to recovery of certain losses incurred and previous payments made to RSL. In 
March 2011, the UKBA gave notice that it had presented a demand to draw on the approximately $80 million of letters of 
credit provided by RSL upon the signing of the contract with the UKBA in 2007. At RSL's request, the Arbitration Tribunal 
initially issued an interim order restraining the drawdown but, following a hearing on the issue, lifted the restraint and concluded 
that any decision on the UKBA's right to call on the letters of credit is inextricably intertwined with the ultimate decision on 
the merits in the arbitration. The Tribunal also preserved RSL's right to claim damages should RSL later establish that the 

drawdown was not valid. To date, the UKBA has submitted claims in the arbitration for damages and clawback of previous 

payments of approximately £415 million (approximately $670 million based on foreign exchange rates as of December 31, 

2012) excluding any credit for capability delivered or draw on the letters of credit. RSL has submitted in the arbitration its 

defenses to the UKBA claim as well as substantial counterclaims in the amount of approximately £500 million (approximately 

$808 million based on foreign exchange rates as of December 31, 2012) against the UKBA for the collection of receivables 

and damages.

RSL is pursuing vigorously the collection of all receivables for the program and damages in connection with the wrongful 

termination, and mounting a strong defense to the UKBA's alleged claims for losses and previous payments. We believe the 

remaining receivables and other assets are probable of recovery in litigation or arbitration. We currently do not believe it is 

probable that RSL is liable for losses, previous payments (which include the $80 million related to the drawdown on the letters 

of credit), clawback or other claims asserted by the UKBA. If we fail to collect the receivable balances or are required to make 

payments against claims or other losses asserted by the UKBA in excess of the amounts we have recorded, it could have a 

material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity. Arbitration hearings commenced in late 

2012 and we expect to have a decision in 2013.

Additional information regarding arbitration with the UKBA is contained in “Commitments and Contingencies” within Item 7 

and “Note 11: Commitments and Contingencies” within Item 8 of this Form 10-K.

In addition, various other claims and legal proceedings generally incidental to the normal course of business are pending or 

threatened against us. While we cannot predict the outcome of these matters, in the opinion of management, any additional 

liability arising from them will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

(1)  Ownership may include either fee ownership of land and improvements or a long-term ground lease with ownership of improvements.

(2)  “Government Owned” means space owned by the U.S. or a foreign government utilized by us pursuant to an operating agreement with the U.S. or a 

(3)  Excludes approximately 775,674 square feet of vacant space, and includes 417,218 square feet of space leased or subleased to unrelated third parties.

(4) 

Includes business development, discontinued operations and Raytheon International, Inc.

We primarily engage in providing products and services under contracts with the U.S. Government and, to a lesser degree, 

under direct foreign sales contracts, some of which the U.S. Government funds. As a government contractor, we are subject 

to many levels of audit and investigation by the U.S. Government relating to our contract performance and compliance with 

applicable rules and regulations. Agencies that oversee contract performance include: the Defense Contract Audit Agency, 

the  Defense  Contract  Management Agency,  the  Inspector  General  of  the  DoD  and  other  departments  and  agencies,  the 

Government Accountability Office, the DoJ and Congressional Committees. From time to time, these and other agencies 

investigate  or  conduct  audits  to  determine  whether  our  operations  are  being  conducted  in  accordance  with  applicable 

requirements. Such investigations and audits could result in administrative, civil or criminal liabilities, including repayments, 

fines or penalties being imposed upon us, the suspension of government export licenses or the suspension or debarment from 

future U.S. Government contracting. U.S. Government investigations often take years to complete and many result in no 

adverse action against us. Our final allowable incurred costs for each year are also subject to audit and have from time to time 

resulted in disputes between us and the U.S. Government with litigation resulting at the Court of Federal Claims (COFC) or 

the Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals (ASBCA) or their related courts of appeals. In addition, the DoJ has, from 

time to time, convened grand juries to investigate possible irregularities by us. We also provide products and services to 

customers outside of the U.S. and those sales are subject to local government laws, regulations, and procurement policies and 

practices. Our compliance with such local government regulations or any applicable U.S. Government regulations (e.g., the 

Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and ITAR) may also be investigated or audited. Other than as specifically disclosed in this Form 

10-K, we do not expect these audits, investigations or disputes to have a material effect on our financial position, results of 

operations or liquidity, either individually or in the aggregate.

We have completed a self-initiated internal review of certain of our international operations, focusing on compliance with the 

Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. In the course of the review, we identified possible areas of concern involving certain practices 

related to operations in a foreign jurisdiction where we do business. We voluntarily disclosed and shared the results of our 

review with the SEC and the DoJ. The SEC staff and the DoJ have completed their review of this matter without recommending 

enforcement action.

On August 18, 2010, the U.K. Border Agency (UKBA) initiated arbitration proceedings in the London Court of International 

Arbitration against Raytheon Systems Limited (RSL) in connection with the parties' dispute with respect to the UKBA's 

termination of RSL for cause on a program. The UKBA claimed that RSL had failed to perform on certain key milestones and 

other matters and that the UKBA was entitled to recovery of certain losses incurred and previous payments made to RSL. In 

March 2011, the UKBA gave notice that it had presented a demand to draw on the approximately $80 million of letters of 

credit provided by RSL upon the signing of the contract with the UKBA in 2007. At RSL's request, the Arbitration Tribunal 

initially issued an interim order restraining the drawdown but, following a hearing on the issue, lifted the restraint and concluded 

that any decision on the UKBA's right to call on the letters of credit is inextricably intertwined with the ultimate decision on 

the merits in the arbitration. The Tribunal also preserved RSL's right to claim damages should RSL later establish that the 

drawdown was not valid. To date, the UKBA has submitted claims in the arbitration for damages and clawback of previous 
payments of approximately £415 million (approximately $670 million based on foreign exchange rates as of December 31, 
2012) excluding any credit for capability delivered or draw on the letters of credit. RSL has submitted in the arbitration its 
defenses to the UKBA claim as well as substantial counterclaims in the amount of approximately £500 million (approximately 
$808 million based on foreign exchange rates as of December 31, 2012) against the UKBA for the collection of receivables 
and damages.

RSL is pursuing vigorously the collection of all receivables for the program and damages in connection with the wrongful 
termination, and mounting a strong defense to the UKBA's alleged claims for losses and previous payments. We believe the 
remaining receivables and other assets are probable of recovery in litigation or arbitration. We currently do not believe it is 
probable that RSL is liable for losses, previous payments (which include the $80 million related to the drawdown on the letters 
of credit), clawback or other claims asserted by the UKBA. If we fail to collect the receivable balances or are required to make 
payments against claims or other losses asserted by the UKBA in excess of the amounts we have recorded, it could have a 
material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity. Arbitration hearings commenced in late 
2012 and we expect to have a decision in 2013.

Additional information regarding arbitration with the UKBA is contained in “Commitments and Contingencies” within Item 7 
and “Note 11: Commitments and Contingencies” within Item 8 of this Form 10-K.

In addition, various other claims and legal proceedings generally incidental to the normal course of business are pending or 
threatened against us. While we cannot predict the outcome of these matters, in the opinion of management, any additional 
liability arising from them will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

(1)  This amount includes 2,538,461 shares, which is the aggregate of the actual number of shares issued pursuant to the 2010 Long-Term Performance 

Plan (LTPP) awards and the maximum number of shares that may be issued upon settlement of outstanding 2011 and 2012 LTPP awards, including 

estimated dividend equivalent amounts. The shares to be issued pursuant to the 2010, 2011 and 2012 LTPP awards will be issued under the Raytheon 

2010 Stock Plan (2010 Stock Plan). The material terms of the 2010, 2011 and 2012 LTPP awards are described in more detail in "Note 13: Stock-based 

Compensation Plans" within Item 8 of this Form 10-K. These awards, which are granted as restricted stock units, may be settled in cash or in stock at 

the discretion of the Management Development and Compensation Committee.

This amount also includes 194,131 shares that may be issued upon settlement of restricted stock units, generally issued to non-U.S. employees. The 

shares to be issued in settlement of the restricted stock units will be issued under the 2010 Stock Plan. The awards of restricted stock units generally 

vest one-third per year on the second, third and fourth anniversaries of the date of grant.

This amount also includes 754,678 shares issuable upon exercise of stock options granted under the Raytheon Company 2001 Stock Plan.

(2)  Since restricted stock unit awards do not have an exercise price, the weighted average exercise price does not take into account the 2010, 2011 and 

2012 LTPP awards and restricted stock units generally granted to non-U.S. employees.

Raytheon  Company  develops  technologically  advanced,  integrated  products,  services  and  solutions  in  four  core  defense 

markets: sensing; effects; command, control, communications and intelligence (C3I); and mission support, as well as other 

important markets, such as cybersecurity. We serve both domestic and international customers, as both a prime contractor and 

subcontractor on a broad portfolio of defense and related programs for primarily government customers.  

We operate in six business segments: Integrated Defense Systems (IDS); Intelligence and Information Systems (IIS); Missile 

Systems (MS); Network Centric Systems (NCS); Space and Airborne Systems (SAS); and Technical Services (TS). For a 

more detailed description of our segments, see “Business Segments” within Item 1 of this Form 10-K.

In this section, we discuss our industry and how certain factors may affect our business, key elements of our strategy, and 

how our financial performance is assessed and measured by management. Next, we discuss our critical accounting estimates, 

which are those estimates that are most important to both the reporting of our financial condition and results of operations 

and require management's subjective judgment. We then review our results of operations for 2012, 2011 and 2010, beginning 

with an overview of our total company results, followed by a more detailed review of those results by business segment. We 

also review our financial condition and liquidity including our capital structure and resources, off-balance sheet arrangements, 

commitments and contingencies, as well as changes in accounting standards, and conclude with a discussion of our exposure 

to various market risks.

Industry Considerations

Domestic Considerations

The U.S. Government continues to focus on efforts to both stimulate the economy and reduce federal budget deficits in order 

to  address  the  growing  amount  of  national  debt.  The  Budget  Control Act  of  2011  (BCA)  was  enacted  as  part  of  the 

Administration's and Congress' effort to reduce the deficit. The BCA reduces the U.S. Department of Defense's (DoD) base 

budget (excluding funding for operations in Afghanistan) by $487 billion over the ten-year period from fiscal year (FY)2012 

- FY 2021 relative to the long-range defense plans that accompanied the FY 2012 budget request.

The BCA also required Congress to enact legislation by January 15, 2012 that would result in deficit reduction of at least $1.2 

trillion, which Congress has not done. Pursuant to the terms of the BCA, as amended by the American Taxpayer Relief Act 

of 2012, a sequestration is scheduled to commence on March 1, 2013 that would result in a total of nearly $1.2 trillion in 

reduced funding over the FY 2013 - FY 2021 period. Unless Congress and the Administration agree to amend, delay, or revoke 

the BCA, the DoD will bear approximately 50% of the cuts, excluding reduced interest payments, under sequestration. DoD

Industry Considerations

Domestic Considerations
The U.S. Government continues to focus on efforts to both stimulate the economy and reduce federal budget deficits in order 
to  address  the  growing  amount  of  national  debt.  The  Budget  Control Act  of  2011  (BCA)  was  enacted  as  part  of  the 
Administration's and Congress' effort to reduce the deficit. The BCA reduces the U.S. Department of Defense's (DoD) base 
budget (excluding funding for operations in Afghanistan) by $487 billion over the ten-year period from fiscal year (FY)2012 
- FY 2021 relative to the long-range defense plans that accompanied the FY 2012 budget request.

The BCA also required Congress to enact legislation by January 15, 2012 that would result in deficit reduction of at least $1.2 
trillion, which Congress has not done. Pursuant to the terms of the BCA, as amended by the American Taxpayer Relief Act 
of 2012, a sequestration is scheduled to commence on March 1, 2013 that would result in a total of nearly $1.2 trillion in 
reduced funding over the FY 2013 - FY 2021 period. Unless Congress and the Administration agree to amend, delay, or revoke 
the BCA, the DoD will bear approximately 50% of the cuts, excluding reduced interest payments, under sequestration. DoD

officials estimate that such sequestration would reduce funding for the DoD by approximately $45 billion in FY 2013 and 
nearly $500 billion over the FY 2013 - FY 2021 period, relative to long-term plans provided as part of the DoD's FY 2013 
budget request.

redeploy out of Afghanistan. The request for future OCO funding will be determined on an as-needed basis and will likely be 

closely correlated to the amount of troops required for each operation. OCO funding has not been a significant source of new 

orders for Raytheon in the last three years, and is not expected to be so in future years.  

Both Administration officials and senior congressional leaders have indicated their desire to avoid sequestration, and agreed 
to delay the commencement of sequestration from the originally scheduled date of January 2, 2013 until the current date of 
March 1, 2013. However, it remains uncertain whether sequestration will be averted fully or in part, or delayed further, due 
to the overall fiscal constraints of the U.S. Government and the difficulty of enacting relevant legislation. As a result, a broad 
range of potential outcomes for the DoD budget in FY 2013 and future years remains possible at this time, with the specific 
outcome depending upon decisions and legislation that will need to be agreed upon by the Administration and Congress. In 
addition, there are potential changes in how sequestration could be implemented that will determine the impacts that may 
result, and officials in both the Administration and Congress have indicated that the DoD may be given more flexibility than 
the BCA currently provides. As a result, the specific impact of sequestration, if any, as well as any other potential actions on 
U.S. Government spending and future DoD budgets and our programs are unknown at this time and we are unable to predict 
the effect any of the foregoing would have on our future financial performance and outlook. Nonetheless, in the event that 
sequestration does go into effect, or if other actions are taken to significantly reduce the DoD budget, it is possible that such 
reductions and related cancellations or delays affecting our existing contracts or programs could have a significant impact on 
the operating results of our business.

With respect to U.S. defense priorities, the DoD issued strategic guidance in January 2012 regarding its priorities for the next 
ten years. The DoD guidance identified the primary missions of the U.S. armed forces and the capabilities expected to be 
critical to future success, including intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR), missile defense, electronic warfare, 
unmanned systems, special operations forces, interoperability with allied forces and cybersecurity. Although the actual impact 
of implementation of the strategic guidance on the DoD budget and our programs is uncertain, we believe that we continue 
to be well positioned to support and provide many of these critical and enduring missions and capabilities.  

U.S. Government sales, excluding foreign military sales, accounted for 73% of our total net sales in 2012. Our principal U.S. 
Government customer is the DoD. Although DoD funding has grown substantially since FY 2001, when it was approximately 
$300 billion, given the current budget environment, future domestic defense spending levels are difficult to predict and may 
decline over the next several years. A number of additional factors potentially impacting the DoD budget include the following:
–  External threats to our national security, including potential security threats posed by terrorists, emerging nuclear states 

and other countries;

–  Support for on-going operations overseas, including Afghanistan, which will require funding above and beyond the DoD 

base budget for their duration;

–  Reductions as a result of sequestration, or lesser reductions as an alternative to sequestration;
–  Disruptions to federal appropriations from default, a government shutdown, or a year-long continuing resolution (CR);
–  Cost-cutting measures implemented by the DoD, such as the “Better Buying Power" initiative, to ensure more efficient 

use of its resources in order to sufficiently fund its highest priorities; 

–  Priorities of the Administration and the Congress, including but not limited to deficit reduction, which could result in 

changes in the overall DoD budget and various allocations within the DoD budget; and
–  The overall health of the U.S. and world economies and the state of governmental finances.

Congress has not yet made a final appropriation for the DoD for FY 2013. The DoD is scheduled to operate until March 27, 
2013 under the terms of a CR. The CR caps funding, on an annualized basis, for the DoD base budget at 0.6% over the FY 
2012 approved base budget of $531 billion. However, since the FY 2012 base budget is greater than the Administration's 
request of $525 billion for FY 2013, we do not expect funding for the CR to exceed the requested amount for FY 2013. The 
Administration's request for the DoD FY 2013 base budget represents a reduction of 1% from the prior year's approved amount 
and reflects the constrained budget environment. Although the Administration's long-term plan, published in February 2011, 
contemplates a modest increase in DoD funding for future years, the results of deficit reduction actions or changes in priorities 
by the Administration and/or Congress could reduce these projections.  

Overseas Contingency Operations (OCO) in Afghanistan (and before they were concluded, in Iraq), have largely been funded 
apart from the DoD base budget to better maintain visibility and oversight of war costs. Under the CR, OCO funding for FY 
2013 is $88 billion. This is lower than the $115 billion enacted for FY 2012 OCO activities, due to reduced operations in 
Afghanistan and conclusion of operations in Iraq. Looking forward, OCO funding is expected to continue to decline as troops 

Although the uncertainty of funding changes that may result from the BCA, among other factors, makes predicting the DoD 

budget beyond FY 2013 difficult, we expect the DoD to continue to prioritize and protect the key capabilities required to 

execute its strategy, including ISR, cybersecurity, missile defense, electronic warfare, unmanned systems, special operations 

forces  and  interoperability  with  allied  forces.  We  believe  those  priorities  are  well  aligned  with  our  product  offerings, 

technologies, services and capabilities.

With respect to other domestic customers beyond the DoD, we have contracts with a wide range of U.S. Government agencies, 

including the Department of Justice (DoJ), the Department of State, the Department of Energy, the Intelligence Community, 

the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the Department of 

Homeland Security (DHS) and the National Science Foundation (NSF). Similar to the budget environment for the DoD, we 

expect the Administration will have to take the spending limits imposed by the BCA into account when determining spending 

priorities  for  these  agencies.  Our  relationship  with  these  agencies  generally  is  determined  more  by  specific  program 

requirements  than  by  a  direct  correlation  to  the  overall  funding  levels  for  these  agencies;  however,  further  changes  in 

government spending priorities may adversely impact these specific programs. We also have contracts with various state and 

local government agencies that also are subject to budget constraints and conflicts in spending priorities. 

We currently are involved in over 15,000 contracts, with no single contract accounting for more than 5% of our total net sales 

in  2012. Although  we  believe  our  diverse  portfolio  of  programs  and  capabilities  is  well  suited  to  a  changing  defense 

environment, we face numerous challenges and risks, as discussed above. For more information on the risks and uncertainties 

that could impact the U.S. Government's demand for our products and services, see Item 1A “Risk Factors” of this Form 10-

K.

International Considerations

In 2012, our sales to customers outside of the U.S. accounted for 26% of our total net sales (including foreign military sales 

through the U.S. Government). Internationally, the growing threat of additional terrorist activity, cyber threats, emerging 

nuclear states, long-range missiles and conventional military threats have led to an increase in demand for defense products 

and services and homeland security solutions. In North Asia, both short- and long-term security concerns are increasing demand 

for air and missile defense, air/naval modernization, maritime security, homeland security and air traffic management. In the 

Middle East, threats from state and non-state actors are increasing demand for air and missile defense, air/land/naval force 

modernization, precision engagement, maritime security, border security, and cybersecurity solutions. In South America, the 

economic growth in some developing countries is being accompanied by an increase in defense spending. While this region 

has traditionally been a smaller market for U.S.-based suppliers, it is likely to see above average growth rates in the future. 

In Europe, nations continue to manage downward pressure on defense spending as their governments grapple with regional 

economic challenges and reprioritize accordingly. Although these global economic challenges may continue to restrain and 

even shrink the defense budgets of certain European nations, requirements for advanced air and missile defense capabilities 

continue to exist in the European market. Overall, we believe many international defense budgets have the potential to grow 

and to do so at a faster rate than the U.S. defense budget. 

International customers have and are expected to continue to adopt defense modernization initiatives similar to the DoD. We 

believe this trend will continue as many international customers are facing a threat environment that is similar to the U.S. and 

they are looking for advanced weapons and sensor systems. Alliance members also wish to assure their forces and systems 

will be interoperable with U.S. and North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) forces. However, international demand is 

sensitive to changes in the priorities and budgets of international customers and geo-political uncertainties, which may be 

driven by changes in threat environments and potentially volatile worldwide economic conditions, various regional and local 

economic and political factors, risks and uncertainties, as well as U.S. foreign policy. For more information on the risks and 

uncertainties that could impact international demand for our products and services, see Item 1A “Risk Factors” of this Form

officials estimate that such sequestration would reduce funding for the DoD by approximately $45 billion in FY 2013 and 

nearly $500 billion over the FY 2013 - FY 2021 period, relative to long-term plans provided as part of the DoD's FY 2013 

budget request.

redeploy out of Afghanistan. The request for future OCO funding will be determined on an as-needed basis and will likely be 
closely correlated to the amount of troops required for each operation. OCO funding has not been a significant source of new 
orders for Raytheon in the last three years, and is not expected to be so in future years.  

Both Administration officials and senior congressional leaders have indicated their desire to avoid sequestration, and agreed 

to delay the commencement of sequestration from the originally scheduled date of January 2, 2013 until the current date of 

March 1, 2013. However, it remains uncertain whether sequestration will be averted fully or in part, or delayed further, due 

to the overall fiscal constraints of the U.S. Government and the difficulty of enacting relevant legislation. As a result, a broad 

range of potential outcomes for the DoD budget in FY 2013 and future years remains possible at this time, with the specific 

outcome depending upon decisions and legislation that will need to be agreed upon by the Administration and Congress. In 

addition, there are potential changes in how sequestration could be implemented that will determine the impacts that may 

result, and officials in both the Administration and Congress have indicated that the DoD may be given more flexibility than 

the BCA currently provides. As a result, the specific impact of sequestration, if any, as well as any other potential actions on 

U.S. Government spending and future DoD budgets and our programs are unknown at this time and we are unable to predict 

the effect any of the foregoing would have on our future financial performance and outlook. Nonetheless, in the event that 

sequestration does go into effect, or if other actions are taken to significantly reduce the DoD budget, it is possible that such 

reductions and related cancellations or delays affecting our existing contracts or programs could have a significant impact on 

the operating results of our business.

With respect to U.S. defense priorities, the DoD issued strategic guidance in January 2012 regarding its priorities for the next 

ten years. The DoD guidance identified the primary missions of the U.S. armed forces and the capabilities expected to be 

critical to future success, including intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR), missile defense, electronic warfare, 

unmanned systems, special operations forces, interoperability with allied forces and cybersecurity. Although the actual impact 

of implementation of the strategic guidance on the DoD budget and our programs is uncertain, we believe that we continue 

to be well positioned to support and provide many of these critical and enduring missions and capabilities.  

U.S. Government sales, excluding foreign military sales, accounted for 73% of our total net sales in 2012. Our principal U.S. 

Government customer is the DoD. Although DoD funding has grown substantially since FY 2001, when it was approximately 

$300 billion, given the current budget environment, future domestic defense spending levels are difficult to predict and may 

decline over the next several years. A number of additional factors potentially impacting the DoD budget include the following:

–  External threats to our national security, including potential security threats posed by terrorists, emerging nuclear states 

–  Support for on-going operations overseas, including Afghanistan, which will require funding above and beyond the DoD

Our Strategy and Opportunities
The following are the broad elements of our strategy:
–  Focus on key strategic pursuits, Technology and Mission Assurance, to sustain and grow our position in four core defense 

markets: Sensing, Effects, C3I and Mission Support;

–  Leverage our domain knowledge in air, land, sea, space and cyber for all markets;
–  Expand international business by building on our relationships and deep market expertise;
–  Continue to be a customer-focused company based on performance, relationships and solutions; and
–  Deliver innovative supply chain solutions to accelerate growth, create competitive advantage and bring valued, global 

solutions to our customers.

Our Markets
We believe that our broad mix of technologies, domain expertise and key capabilities and our cost-effective, best-value solutions 
and their alignment with customer needs in our core markets, position us favorably to continue to grow and increase our 
market share. Our core markets also serve as a solid base from which to expand into growth areas, such as Cybersecurity and 
key mission areas. We continually explore opportunities to leverage our existing capabilities, or develop or acquire additional 
ones, to expand into growth markets. 

Sensing—Sensing encompasses technologies that acquire precise situational data across air, space, ground and underwater 
domains and then generate the information needed for effective battlespace decisions. Our Sensing technologies span the full 
electromagnetic spectrum, from traditional radio frequency (RF) and electro-optical (EO) to wideband, hyperspectral and 
acoustic sensors. We are focused on leveraging our sensing technologies to provide a broad range of capabilities as well as 
expanding into growth markets such as sensors to detect weapons of mass destruction. 

Effects—Effects achieve specific military actions or outcomes, from small-unit force protection to theater/national missile 
defense. The missions may be achieved by kinetic means, directed energy or information operations. Our Effects capabilities 
include advanced airframes, guidance and navigation systems, multiple sensor seekers, targeting, net-enabled systems, multi-
dimensional effects, directed energy and cyber systems.

Command, Control, Communication and Intelligence (C3I)—C3I systems provide integrated real-time support to decision-
makers on and off the battlefield, transforming raw data into actionable intelligence. Our C3I capabilities include situational 
awareness, persistent surveillance, communications, mission planning, battle management command and control, intelligence 
and analysis, and integrated ground solutions. We are also continuing to grow our market presence in C3I and expand our 
knowledge management and discovery capabilities. 

Mission Support—We are focused on enabling customer success through total life-cycle support that predicts customer needs, 
senses potential problems and proactively responds with the most appropriate solutions. Our Mission Support capabilities 
include technical services, system engineering, product support, logistics, training, operations and maintenance. Our training 
business continues to expand and we now train military, civil and commercial customers in over 80 countries and in 40 different 
languages. 

Cybersecurity—We continue to enhance our capabilities in the cybersecurity market as well as leverage the capabilities of 
the twelve cyber acquisitions made since 2007. We are focused on providing cyber capabilities to the Intelligence, DoD and 
DHS markets as well as embedding information assurance capabilities in our products and our IT infrastructure. In 2012, we 
acquired Teligy, Inc., which specializes in wireless communications, vulnerability analysis, reverse engineering and custom 
kernel software/device driver development. Also in 2012, we acquired the Government Solutions business of SafeNet, Inc., 
which provides encryption products for integration at all levels, and targets high-speed, satellite, networking, data link, voice, 
key management, and wireless communication markets.

Key Mission Areas—Within our market focus areas, we emphasize our capabilities in key mission areas of enduring importance 
to  our  customers. These  key  mission  areas  include  missile  defense,  ISR  and  electronic  warfare.  In  a  budget-constrained 
environment, customers are increasingly seeking cost-effective mission solutions. These solutions can take the form of new 
electronics  or  electronic  upgrades,  but  draw  on  our  market  focus  area  capabilities,  deep  domain  expertise  and  system 
architecture skills. 

International Growth

Because of the breadth of our offerings, our systems integration capability, the value of our solutions and our strong legacy 

in the international marketplace, we believe that we are well positioned to continue to grow our international business. As 

discussed under “International Considerations,” we believe demand continues to grow for solutions in air and missile defense, 

air traffic management, precision engagement, homeland security, naval systems integration and ISR. In addition, as coalition 

forces increasingly integrate military operations worldwide, we believe that our capabilities in network-enabled operations 

will continue to be a key discriminator in these markets.

Our international sales, including foreign military sales through the U.S. Government, were $6.2 billion in 2012 and $6.1 

billion in 2011, and our international bookings were $6.0 billion in 2012 and $7.7 billion in 2011.

Focus on the Customer and Execution

Our customer focus continues to be a critical part of our strategy—underpinned by a focus on performance, relationships and 

solutions. Performance means being able to meet customer commitments which is ensured through strong processes, metrics 

and oversight. We maintain a “process architecture” that spans our six businesses and our broad programs and pursuits. It 

consists of processes such as Integrated Product Development System (IPDS), which assures consistency of evaluation and 

execution at each step in a program's life-cycle. It also includes our Achieving Process Excellence (APEX), which is our SAP 

business system software for accounting, finance and program management; Process Re-Invention Integrating Systems for 

Manufacturing (PRISM), which is our SAP software for manufacturing operations; Advanced Company Estimating System 

(ACES) which is our cost proposal system; and Raytheon Enterprise Supplier Assessment (RESA) tool for Supply Chain 

Management. These processes and systems are linked to an array of front-end and back-end metrics. With this structure, we 

are able to track results and be alerted to potential issues through numerous oversight mechanisms, including operating reviews 

and annual operating plan reviews. 

We are also continuing to build strong customer relationships by working with them as partners and including them on Raytheon 

Six  SigmaTM  teams  to  jointly  improve  their  programs  and  processes. We  are  increasingly  focused  on  responding  to  our 

customers' changing requirements with rapid and effective solutions to real-world problems. In recognition of our customers' 

constraints and priorities, we also continue to drive various cost reductions across the Company by continuing to focus on 

improving productivity and strong execution throughout our programs. We have worked to reduce costs across the Company, 

improve  efficiencies  in  our  production  facilities,  and  continue  to  increase  value  through  Raytheon  Six  SigmaTM,  the 

implementation of lean processes, reduced cycle times and strategic supply chain initiatives in addition to other initiatives.

FINANCIAL SUMMARY

We use the following key financial performance measures to manage our business on a consolidated basis and by business 

segment, and to monitor and assess our results of operations:

–  Bookings—a forward-looking metric that measures the value of new contracts awarded to us during the year;

–  Net Sales—a growth metric that measures our revenue for the current year;

–  Operating Income—a measure of our profit from continuing operations for the year, before non-operating expenses, net 

and taxes; and

–  Operating Margin—a measure of our operating income as a percentage of total net sales.

We also focus on earnings per share (EPS), including Adjusted EPS, and measures to assess our cash generation and the 

efficiency and effectiveness of our use of capital, such as free cash flow (FCF) and return on invested capital (ROIC).

Considered  together,  we  believe  these  metrics  are  strong  indicators  of  our  overall  performance  and  our  ability  to  create 

shareholder value. We feel these measures are balanced among long-term and short-term performance, efficiency and growth. 

We also use these and other performance metrics for executive compensation purposes.

In addition, we maintain a strong focus on program execution and the prudent management of capital and investments in order 

to maximize operating income and cash. We pursue a capital deployment strategy that balances funding for growing our 

business, including capital expenditures, acquisitions, and research and development; prudently managing our balance sheet, 

including debt repayments and pension contributions; and returning cash to our stockholders, including dividend payments 

and share repurchases.

Bookings were $26.5 billion, $26.6 billion and $24.4 billion in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, resulting in backlog of 

$36.2 billion, $35.3 billion and $34.6 billion at December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Backlog represents the dollar

We also focus on earnings per share (EPS), including Adjusted EPS, and measures to assess our cash generation and the 
efficiency and effectiveness of our use of capital, such as free cash flow (FCF) and return on invested capital (ROIC).

Considered  together,  we  believe  these  metrics  are  strong  indicators  of  our  overall  performance  and  our  ability  to  create 
shareholder value. We feel these measures are balanced among long-term and short-term performance, efficiency and growth. 
We also use these and other performance metrics for executive compensation purposes.

In addition, we maintain a strong focus on program execution and the prudent management of capital and investments in order 
to maximize operating income and cash. We pursue a capital deployment strategy that balances funding for growing our 
business, including capital expenditures, acquisitions, and research and development; prudently managing our balance sheet, 
including debt repayments and pension contributions; and returning cash to our stockholders, including dividend payments 
and share repurchases.

Bookings were $26.5 billion, $26.6 billion and $24.4 billion in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, resulting in backlog of 
$36.2 billion, $35.3 billion and $34.6 billion at December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Backlog represents the dollar

value of contracts awarded for which work has not been performed. Backlog generally increases with bookings and generally 
converts into sales as we incur costs under the related contractual commitments. We therefore discuss changes in backlog, 
including any significant cancellations, for each of our segments, as we believe such discussion provides an understanding 
of the awarded but not executed portion of our contracts. As described in Commitments and Contingencies, beginning on 
page 72, in the second quarter of 2010, Raytheon Systems Limited (RSL) was notified of its termination on the U.K. Border 
Agency (UKBA) program, which resulted in a net backlog adjustment of $556 million at IIS. 

Total net sales were $24.4 billion, $24.8 billion and $25.2 billion in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Operating income was $3.0 billion, $2.8 billion and $2.6 billion in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Operating margin was 
12.2%, 11.4% and 10.4% in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Included in operating income was the FAS/CAS Adjustment, 
described below in Critical Accounting Estimates, of $255 million, $337 million and $187 million of expense in 2012, 2011 
and 2010, respectively.

Operating  cash  flow  from  continuing  operations  was  $2.0  billion,  $2.1  billion  and  $1.9  billion  in  2012,  2011  and  2010, 
respectively.

A discussion of our results of operations and financial condition follows below in Consolidated Results of Operations; Segment 
Results; Financial Condition and Liquidity; and Capital Resources.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
Our consolidated financial statements are based on the application of U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), 
which require us to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated 
financial statements and the accompanying notes. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty. Therefore, 
the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and any 
such differences may be material to our consolidated financial statements. We believe the estimates set forth below may 
involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity in their application than our other accounting estimates and represent 
the critical accounting estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. We believe our judgments 
related to these accounting estimates are appropriate. However, if different assumptions or conditions were to prevail, the 
results could be materially different from the amounts recorded.

Revenue Recognition
We determine the appropriate method by which we recognize revenue by analyzing the type, terms and conditions of each 
contract or arrangement entered into with our customers. The significant estimates we make in recognizing revenue for the 
types of revenue-generating activities in which we are involved are described below. We classify contract revenues as product 
or service according to the predominant attributes of the relevant underlying contracts unless the contract can clearly be split 
between product and service. We define service revenue as revenue from activities that are not associated with the design, 
development or production of tangible assets, the delivery of software code or a specific capability. Our services sales are 
primarily related to our TS business segment.

Percentage-of-Completion Accounting—We use the percentage-of-completion accounting method to account for our long-
term contracts associated with the design, development, manufacture, or modification of complex aerospace or electronic 
equipment and related services, such as certain cost-plus service contracts. Under this method, revenue is recognized based 
on the extent of progress towards completion of the long-term contract. Our analysis of these contracts also contemplates 
whether contracts should be combined or segmented in accordance with the applicable criteria under GAAP. We combine 
closely related contracts when all the applicable criteria under GAAP are met. The combination of two or more contracts 
requires judgment in determining whether the intent of entering into the contracts was effectively to enter into a single project, 
which should be combined to reflect an overall profit rate. Similarly, we may segment a project, which may consist of a single 
contract or group of contracts, with varying rates of profitability, only if the applicable criteria under GAAP are met. Judgment 
also is involved in determining whether a single contract or group of contracts may be segmented based on how the arrangement 
was negotiated and the performance criteria. The decision to combine a group of contracts or segment a contract could change 
the amount of revenue and gross profit recorded in a given period. 

The selection of the method by which to measure progress towards completion of a contract requires judgment and is based 
on the nature of the products or services to be provided. We generally use the cost-to-cost measure of progress for our long-
term contracts unless we believe another method more clearly measures progress towards completion of the contract. Under 
the cost-to-cost measure of progress, the extent of progress towards completion is measured based on the ratio of costs incurred 

to date to the total estimated costs at completion of the contract. Contract costs include labor, material and subcontracting 

costs, as well as an allocation of indirect costs. Revenues, including estimated fees or profits, are recorded as costs are incurred. 

Due to the nature of the work required to be performed on many of our contracts, the estimation of total revenue and cost at 

completion (the process for which we describe below in more detail) is complex and subject to many variables. Incentive and 

award fees generally are awarded at the discretion of the customer or upon achievement of certain program milestones or cost 

targets. Incentive and award fees, as well as penalties related to contract performance, are considered in estimating profit rates. 

Estimates of award fees are based on actual awards and anticipated performance, which may include the performance of 

subcontractors or partners depending on the individual contract requirements. Incentive provisions that increase or decrease 

earnings based solely on a single significant event generally are not recognized until the event occurs. Such incentives and 

penalties are recorded when there is sufficient information for us to assess anticipated performance. Our claims on contracts 

are recorded only if it is probable that the claim will result in additional contract revenue and the amounts can be reliably 

estimated. 

We have a Company-wide standard and disciplined quarterly Estimate at Completion (EAC) process in which management 

reviews the progress and performance of our contracts. As part of this process, management reviews information including, 

but not limited to, any outstanding key contract matters, progress towards completion and the related program schedule, 

identified risks and opportunities, and the related changes in estimates of revenues and costs. The risks and opportunities 

include management's judgment about the ability and cost to achieve the schedule (e.g., the number and type of milestone 

events), technical requirements (e.g., a newly-developed product versus a mature product), and other contract requirements. 

Management must make assumptions and estimates regarding labor productivity and availability, the complexity of the work 

to be performed, the availability of materials, the length of time to complete the contract (to estimate increases in wages and 

prices for materials and related support cost allocations), performance by our subcontractors, the availability and timing of 

funding from our customer, and overhead cost rates, among other variables. These estimates also include the estimated cost 

of satisfying our industrial cooperation agreements, sometimes referred to as offset obligations required under certain contracts. 

Based on this analysis, any quarterly adjustments to net sales, cost of sales, and the related impact to operating income are 

recorded as necessary in the period they become known. These adjustments may result from positive program performance, 

and may result in an increase in operating income during the performance of individual contracts, if we determine we will be 

successful in mitigating risks surrounding the technical, schedule, and cost aspects of those contracts or realizing related 

opportunities.  Likewise,  these  adjustments  may  result  in  a  decrease  in  operating  income  if  we  determine  we  will  not  be 

successful in mitigating these risks or realizing related opportunities. Changes in estimates of net sales, cost of sales, and the 

related impact to operating income are recognized quarterly on a cumulative catch-up basis, which recognizes in the current 

period the cumulative effect of the changes on current and prior periods based on a contract's percentage of completion. A 

significant change in one or more of these estimates could affect the profitability of one or more of our contracts. When 

estimates of total costs to be incurred on a contract exceed total estimates of revenue to be earned, a provision for the entire 

loss on the contract is recorded in the period the loss is determined. 

Our operating income included net EAC adjustments resulting from changes in estimates of approximately $613 million, $548 

million and $158 million for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. These adjustments increased 

our income from continuing operations attributable to Raytheon Company common stockholders by approximately $398 

million ($1.19 per diluted share), $348 million ($0.98 per diluted share), and $75 million ($0.20 per diluted share) for the 

years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Other Revenue Methods—To a much lesser extent, we enter into other types of contracts such as service, commercial, or 

software and licensing arrangements. Revenue under fixed-price service contracts not associated with the design, development, 

manufacture, or modification of complex aerospace or electronic equipment and commercial contracts generally is recognized 

upon delivery or as services are rendered once persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, our price is fixed or determinable, 

and collectability is reasonably assured. Costs on fixed-price service contracts are expensed as incurred, unless they otherwise 

qualify for deferral. There were no costs deferred on fixed price service contracts at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 

2011. We recognize revenue on contracts to sell software when evidence of an arrangement exists, the software has been 

delivered and accepted by the customer, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collection is probable. For software arrangements 

that include multiple elements, including perpetual software licenses and undelivered items (e.g., maintenance and/or services; 

subscriptions/term  licenses),  we  allocate  and  defer  revenue  for  the  undelivered  items  based  on  vendor  specific  objective 

evidence (VSOE) of the fair value of the undelivered elements, and recognize revenue on the perpetual license using the 

residual  method. We  base VSOE  of  each  element  on  the  price  for  which  the  undelivered  element  is  sold  separately. We 

determine fair value of the undelivered elements based on historical evidence of our stand-alone sales of these elements to

third parties or from the stated renewal rate for the undelivered elements. When VSOE does not exist for undelivered items, 
we recognize the entire arrangement fee ratably over the applicable performance period. Revenue from non-software license 
fees is recognized over the expected life of the continued involvement with the customer. Royalty revenue is recognized when 
earned. 

We apply the separation guidance under GAAP for contracts with multiple deliverables. We analyze revenue arrangements 
with  multiple deliverables to  determine if the  deliverables should  be  divided into  more  than one  unit  of  accounting. For 
contracts with more than one unit of accounting, we allocate the consideration we receive among the separate units of accounting 
based on their relative selling prices, which we determine based on prices of the deliverables as sold on a stand-alone basis, 
or if not sold on a stand-alone basis, the prices we would charge if sold on a stand-alone basis, and we recognize revenue for 
each deliverable based on the revenue recognition policies described above.

Other Considerations—The majority of our sales are driven by pricing based on costs incurred to produce products or perform 
services under contracts with the U.S. Government. Cost-based pricing is determined under the Federal Acquisition Regulations 
(FAR). The FAR provide guidance on the types of costs that are allowable in establishing prices for goods and services under 
U.S. Government contracts. For example, costs such as those related to charitable contributions, certain merger and acquisition 
costs, lobbying costs, interest expense and certain litigation defense costs are unallowable. In addition, we may enter into 
agreements with the U.S. Government that address the allowability and allocation of costs to contracts for specific matters. 
Certain costs incurred in the performance of our U.S. Government contracts are required to be recorded under GAAP but are 
not currently allocable to contracts. Such costs are deferred and primarily include a portion of our environmental expenses, 
asset retirement obligations, certain restructuring costs, deferred state income tax, workers’ compensation and certain other 
accruals. These costs are allocated to contracts when they are paid or otherwise agreed. We regularly assess the probability 
of recovery of these costs. This assessment requires us to make assumptions about the extent of cost recovery under our 
contracts and the amount of future contract activity. If the level of backlog in the future does not support the continued deferral 
of these costs, the profitability of our remaining contracts could be adversely affected.

Pension and other postretirement benefits costs are allocated to our contracts as allowed costs based upon the U.S. Government 
Cost Accounting Standards (CAS). The CAS requirements for pension and other postretirement benefit costs differ from the 
Financial Accounting Standards (FAS) requirements under GAAP. Given the inability to match with reasonable certainty 
individual expense and income items between the CAS and FAS requirements to determine specific recoverability, we have 
not estimated the incremental FAS income or expense to be recoverable under our expected future contract activity, and 
therefore did not defer any FAS expense for pension and other postretirement benefit plans. This resulted in $255 million, 
$337 million and $187 million of expense in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, reflected in our results of operations for the 
difference between CAS and FAS requirements for our pension and other postretirement plans in those years.

Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits Costs
We have pension plans covering the majority of our employees, including certain employees in foreign countries. We must 
calculate our pension costs under both CAS and FAS requirements under GAAP, and both calculations require judgment. CAS 
prescribes the allocation to and recovery of pension costs on U.S. Government contracts through the pricing of products and 
services and the methodology to determine such costs. GAAP outlines the methodology used to determine pension expense 
or income for financial reporting purposes. The CAS requirements for pension costs and its calculation methodology differ 
from the FAS requirements and calculation methodology. As a result, while both CAS and FAS use long-term assumptions 
in their calculation methodologies, each method results in different calculated amounts of pension cost. In addition, the cash 
funding requirements for our pension plans are determined under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 
(ERISA). ERISA funding requirements use a third and different method to determine funding requirements, which is primarily 
based on the year’s expected service cost and amortization of other previously unfunded liabilities. 

Effective January 1, 2011, we are subject to the funding requirements under the Pension Protection Act of 2006 (PPA), which 
amended ERISA. Under the PPA, we are required to fully fund our pension plans over a rolling seven-year period as determined 
annually based upon the funded status at the beginning of each year. Due to the foregoing differences in requirements and 
calculation methodologies, our FAS pension expense or income is not indicative of the funding requirements or amount of 
government recovery. 

On December 27, 2011, the CAS Pension Harmonization Rule (CAS Harmonization) was published in the Federal Register. 
The rule will impact pension costs on contracts beginning in 2013 and is effective for forward pricing purposes for contracts 
negotiated on or after February 27, 2012. The rule is intended to improve the alignment of the pension cost recovered through 

contract pricing under CAS and the pension funding requirements under the PPA. The rule shortens the CAS amortization 

period for gains and losses from 15 to 10 years and requires the use of a discount rate based on high quality corporate bonds 

to measure liabilities in determining the CAS pension expense. While the change in amortization period is applicable in 2013, 

there is a transition period for the impact of the change in liability measurement method of 0% in 2013, 25% in 2014, 50% 

in 2015, 75% in 2016 and 100% in 2017. CAS Harmonization is currently expected to increase pension costs under CAS and 

is also expected to decrease our FAS/CAS expense primarily in 2014 and beyond due to the liability measurement transition 

period included in the rule. Since the pension cost increases occur primarily in 2014 and beyond, the impact to our contracts 

in existence prior to February 27, 2012 was not material. Furthermore, since CAS Harmonization is a mandatory change in 

cost accounting for government contractors, we may be entitled to an equitable adjustment for some portion of the increase 

in costs on contracts. 

We record CAS expense in the results of our business segments. Due to the differences between FAS and CAS amounts, we 

also present the difference between FAS and CAS expense, referred to as our FAS/CAS Pension Adjustment, which is a 

component of our total FAS/CAS Adjustment disclosed as a separate line item in our segment results. This effectively increases 

or decreases the amount of total pension expense in our results of operations so such amount is equal to the FAS expense 

amount under GAAP. Due to the foregoing differences in requirements and calculation methodologies, our FAS pension 

expense or income is not indicative of the funding requirements or amount of government recovery.

The assumptions in the calculations of our pension FAS expense and CAS expense, which involve significant judgment, are 

described below.

FAS Expense—Our long-term return on plan assets (ROA) and discount rate assumptions are the key variables in determining 

pension expense or income and the funded status of our pension plans under GAAP.

The long-term ROA represents the average rate of earnings expected over the long term on the assets invested to provide for 

anticipated future benefit payment obligations. We employ a “building block” approach in determining the long-term ROA 

assumption. Historical markets are studied and long-term relationships between equities and fixed income are assessed. Current 

market factors such as inflation and interest rates are evaluated before long-term capital market assumptions are determined. 

The long-term ROA assumption is also established giving consideration to investment diversification, rebalancing and active 

management of the investment portfolio. Also, historical returns are reviewed to assess reasonableness and appropriateness.

The investment policy asset allocation ranges for our domestic pension plans, as set by the Company’s Investment Committee, 

for the year ended December 31, 2012 were as follows: 

Asset Category

U.S. equities

International equities

Fixed-income securities

Cash and cash equivalents

Private equity and private real estate

Other (including absolute return funds)

25% - 35%

15% - 25%

25% - 40%

1% - 10%

3% - 10%

5% - 20%

In validating the 2012 long-term ROA assumption, we reviewed our pension plan asset performance since 1986. Our average 

actual annual rate of return since 1986 has exceeded our estimated 8.75% assumed return. Based upon these analyses and our 

internal investing targets, we determined our long-term ROA assumption for our domestic pension plans in 2012 was 8.75%, 

consistent with our 2011 assumption. Our domestic pension plans’ actual rates of return were approximately 12%, (1)% and 

11% for 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The difference between the actual rate of return and our long-term ROA assumption 

is included in deferred losses. If we significantly change our long-term investment allocation or strategy, then our long-term 

ROA assumption could change.

The long-term ROA assumptions for foreign Pension Benefits plans are based on the asset allocations and the economic 

environment prevailing in the locations where the Pension Benefits plans reside. Foreign pension assets do not make up a 

significant portion of the total assets for all of our Pension Benefits plans.

third parties or from the stated renewal rate for the undelivered elements. When VSOE does not exist for undelivered items, 

we recognize the entire arrangement fee ratably over the applicable performance period. Revenue from non-software license 

fees is recognized over the expected life of the continued involvement with the customer. Royalty revenue is recognized when 

earned. 

We apply the separation guidance under GAAP for contracts with multiple deliverables. We analyze revenue arrangements 

with  multiple deliverables to  determine if the  deliverables should  be  divided into  more  than one  unit  of  accounting.  For 

contracts with more than one unit of accounting, we allocate the consideration we receive among the separate units of accounting 

based on their relative selling prices, which we determine based on prices of the deliverables as sold on a stand-alone basis, 

or if not sold on a stand-alone basis, the prices we would charge if sold on a stand-alone basis, and we recognize revenue for 

each deliverable based on the revenue recognition policies described above.

Other Considerations—The majority of our sales are driven by pricing based on costs incurred to produce products or perform 

services under contracts with the U.S. Government. Cost-based pricing is determined under the Federal Acquisition Regulations 

(FAR). The FAR provide guidance on the types of costs that are allowable in establishing prices for goods and services under 

U.S. Government contracts. For example, costs such as those related to charitable contributions, certain merger and acquisition 

costs, lobbying costs, interest expense and certain litigation defense costs are unallowable. In addition, we may enter into 

agreements with the U.S. Government that address the allowability and allocation of costs to contracts for specific matters. 

Certain costs incurred in the performance of our U.S. Government contracts are required to be recorded under GAAP but are 

not currently allocable to contracts. Such costs are deferred and primarily include a portion of our environmental expenses, 

asset retirement obligations, certain restructuring costs, deferred state income tax, workers’ compensation and certain other 

accruals. These costs are allocated to contracts when they are paid or otherwise agreed. We regularly assess the probability 

of recovery of these costs. This assessment requires us to make assumptions about the extent of cost recovery under our 

contracts and the amount of future contract activity. If the level of backlog in the future does not support the continued deferral 

of these costs, the profitability of our remaining contracts could be adversely affected.

Pension and other postretirement benefits costs are allocated to our contracts as allowed costs based upon the U.S. Government 

Cost Accounting Standards (CAS). The CAS requirements for pension and other postretirement benefit costs differ from the 

Financial Accounting Standards (FAS) requirements under GAAP. Given the inability to match with reasonable certainty 

individual expense and income items between the CAS and FAS requirements to determine specific recoverability, we have 

not estimated the incremental FAS income or expense to be recoverable under our expected future contract activity, and 

therefore did not defer any FAS expense for pension and other postretirement benefit plans. This resulted in $255 million, 

$337 million and $187 million of expense in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, reflected in our results of operations for the 

difference between CAS and FAS requirements for our pension and other postretirement plans in those years.

Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits Costs

We have pension plans covering the majority of our employees, including certain employees in foreign countries. We must 

calculate our pension costs under both CAS and FAS requirements under GAAP, and both calculations require judgment. CAS 

prescribes the allocation to and recovery of pension costs on U.S. Government contracts through the pricing of products and 

services and the methodology to determine such costs. GAAP outlines the methodology used to determine pension expense 

or income for financial reporting purposes. The CAS requirements for pension costs and its calculation methodology differ 

from the FAS requirements and calculation methodology. As a result, while both CAS and FAS use long-term assumptions 

in their calculation methodologies, each method results in different calculated amounts of pension cost. In addition, the cash 

funding requirements for our pension plans are determined under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 

(ERISA). ERISA funding requirements use a third and different method to determine funding requirements, which is primarily 

based on the year’s expected service cost and amortization of other previously unfunded liabilities. 

Effective January 1, 2011, we are subject to the funding requirements under the Pension Protection Act of 2006 (PPA), which 

amended ERISA. Under the PPA, we are required to fully fund our pension plans over a rolling seven-year period as determined 

annually based upon the funded status at the beginning of each year. Due to the foregoing differences in requirements and 

calculation methodologies, our FAS pension expense or income is not indicative of the funding requirements or amount of 

government recovery. 

On December 27, 2011, the CAS Pension Harmonization Rule (CAS Harmonization) was published in the Federal Register. 

The rule will impact pension costs on contracts beginning in 2013 and is effective for forward pricing purposes for contracts 

negotiated on or after February 27, 2012. The rule is intended to improve the alignment of the pension cost recovered through 

contract pricing under CAS and the pension funding requirements under the PPA. The rule shortens the CAS amortization 
period for gains and losses from 15 to 10 years and requires the use of a discount rate based on high quality corporate bonds 
to measure liabilities in determining the CAS pension expense. While the change in amortization period is applicable in 2013, 
there is a transition period for the impact of the change in liability measurement method of 0% in 2013, 25% in 2014, 50% 
in 2015, 75% in 2016 and 100% in 2017. CAS Harmonization is currently expected to increase pension costs under CAS and 
is also expected to decrease our FAS/CAS expense primarily in 2014 and beyond due to the liability measurement transition 
period included in the rule. Since the pension cost increases occur primarily in 2014 and beyond, the impact to our contracts 
in existence prior to February 27, 2012 was not material. Furthermore, since CAS Harmonization is a mandatory change in 
cost accounting for government contractors, we may be entitled to an equitable adjustment for some portion of the increase 
in costs on contracts. 

We record CAS expense in the results of our business segments. Due to the differences between FAS and CAS amounts, we 
also present the difference between FAS and CAS expense, referred to as our FAS/CAS Pension Adjustment, which is a 
component of our total FAS/CAS Adjustment disclosed as a separate line item in our segment results. This effectively increases 
or decreases the amount of total pension expense in our results of operations so such amount is equal to the FAS expense 
amount under GAAP. Due to the foregoing differences in requirements and calculation methodologies, our FAS pension 
expense or income is not indicative of the funding requirements or amount of government recovery.

The assumptions in the calculations of our pension FAS expense and CAS expense, which involve significant judgment, are 
described below.

FAS Expense—Our long-term return on plan assets (ROA) and discount rate assumptions are the key variables in determining 
pension expense or income and the funded status of our pension plans under GAAP.

The long-term ROA represents the average rate of earnings expected over the long term on the assets invested to provide for 
anticipated future benefit payment obligations. We employ a “building block” approach in determining the long-term ROA 
assumption. Historical markets are studied and long-term relationships between equities and fixed income are assessed. Current 
market factors such as inflation and interest rates are evaluated before long-term capital market assumptions are determined. 
The long-term ROA assumption is also established giving consideration to investment diversification, rebalancing and active 
management of the investment portfolio. Also, historical returns are reviewed to assess reasonableness and appropriateness.

The investment policy asset allocation ranges for our domestic pension plans, as set by the Company’s Investment Committee, 
for the year ended December 31, 2012 were as follows: 

Asset Category
U.S. equities

International equities

Fixed-income securities

Cash and cash equivalents

Private equity and private real estate

Other (including absolute return funds)

25% - 35%

15% - 25%

25% - 40%

1% - 10%

3% - 10%

5% - 20%

In validating the 2012 long-term ROA assumption, we reviewed our pension plan asset performance since 1986. Our average 
actual annual rate of return since 1986 has exceeded our estimated 8.75% assumed return. Based upon these analyses and our 
internal investing targets, we determined our long-term ROA assumption for our domestic pension plans in 2012 was 8.75%, 
consistent with our 2011 assumption. Our domestic pension plans’ actual rates of return were approximately 12%, (1)% and 
11% for 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The difference between the actual rate of return and our long-term ROA assumption 
is included in deferred losses. If we significantly change our long-term investment allocation or strategy, then our long-term 
ROA assumption could change.

The long-term ROA assumptions for foreign Pension Benefits plans are based on the asset allocations and the economic 
environment prevailing in the locations where the Pension Benefits plans reside. Foreign pension assets do not make up a 
significant portion of the total assets for all of our Pension Benefits plans.

The discount rate represents the interest rate that should be used to determine the present value of future cash flows currently 
expected to be required to settle the pension and postretirement benefit obligations. The discount rate assumption is determined 
by using a theoretical bond portfolio model consisting of bonds AA rated or better by Moody’s for which the timing and 
amount of cash flows approximate the estimated benefit payments for each of our pension plans. The discount rate assumption 
for our domestic pension plans at December 31, 2012 is 4.15%, which represents a weighted-average discount rate across our 
plans, compared to the December 31, 2011 discount rate of 5.00% as a result of the bond environment at December 31, 2012.

An increase or decrease of 25 basis points in the long-term ROA and the discount rate assumptions would have had the 
following approximate impacts on 2012 pension results:

CAS Expense—In addition to providing the methodology for calculating pension costs, CAS also prescribes the method for 
assigning those costs to specific periods. While the ultimate liability for pension costs under FAS and CAS is similar, the 
pattern of cost recognition is different. The key drivers of CAS pension expense include the funded status and the method 
used to calculate CAS reimbursement for each of our plans. Under the existing CAS rules, which continue to apply through 
2012, the discount rate used to measure liabilities is required to be consistent with the long-term ROA assumption, which 
changes  infrequently  given  its  long-term  nature.  In  addition  to  certain  other  changes,  CAS  Harmonization  will  require 
contractors to compare the liability under the current CAS methodology and assumptions to a liability using a discount rate 
based on high quality corporate bonds and use the greater of the two liability calculations in developing CAS expense. In 
addition, unlike FAS, we can only allocate pension costs for a plan under CAS until such plan is fully funded as determined 
under CAS requirements. When the estimated future CAS pension costs increase, the estimated CAS cost to be allocated to 
our contracts in the future increases.

Other FAS and CAS Considerations—On an annual basis, at December 31, we update our estimate of future FAS and CAS 
pension expense based upon actual discount rates, asset returns and other actuarial factors. Other variables that can impact 
the pension plans’ funded status and FAS and CAS expense include demographic experience such as the expected rates of 
salary increase, retirement age, turnover and mortality. In addition, certain pension plans provide a lump sum benefit that 
varies based on externally determined interest rates. Assumptions for these variables are set at the beginning of the year, and 
are based on actual and projected plan experience. In addition, on a periodic basis, generally planned annually in the third 
quarter, we update our actuarial estimate of the unfunded projected benefit obligation for both FAS and CAS with final census 
data from the end of the prior year.

In accordance with both FAS and CAS, a “market-related value” of our plan assets is used to calculate the amount of deferred 
asset gains or losses to be amortized. The market-related value of assets is determined using actual asset gains or losses over 
a certain prior period (three years for FAS and five years for CAS, subject to certain limitations under CAS on the difference 
between the market-related value and actual market value of assets). Because of this difference in the number of years over 
which actual asset gains or losses are recognized and subsequently amortized, FAS expense generally tends to reflect recent 
asset gains or losses faster than CAS. Another driver of CAS expense (but not FAS expense) is the funded status of our pension 
plans under CAS. As noted above, CAS expense is only recognized for plans that are not fully funded; consequently, if plans 
become or cease to be fully funded under CAS due to our asset or liability experience, our CAS expense will change accordingly.

The change in the FAS/CAS Pension Adjustment of $85 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was driven by a $105 million 

increase in our CAS expense, primarily due to the continued recognition of the 2008 negative asset returns. 

The change in the FAS/CAS Pension Adjustment of $110 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily driven by a $177 

million increase in our FAS expense. The $177 million increase in our FAS expense was driven primarily by the continued 

recognition of the 2008 losses in the market related value of assets, which had an impact of approximately $200 million. Our 

CAS expense increased $67 million as a result of actual versus expected asset and liability experience.

For 2013 compared to 2012, we currently expect our FAS expense will increase more than our CAS expense, which will 

increase the FAS/CAS Pension Adjustment. We expect the FAS/CAS Pension Adjustment to be approximately $289 million 

of expense driven by the lower discount rate environment and the difference in the recognition period for actual asset gains 

and losses under FAS and CAS, described above. This expected increase in FAS expense in excess of CAS expense is subject 

to our annual update, generally planned in the third quarter, of our actuarial estimate of the unfunded benefit obligation for 

both FAS and CAS for final 2012 census data. After 2013, the FAS/CAS Pension Adjustment is more difficult to predict 

because future FAS and CAS expense is based on a number of key assumptions for future periods. Differences between those 

assumptions and future actual results could significantly change both FAS and CAS expense in future periods. However, based 

solely on our current assumptions at December 31, 2012 and taking into account CAS Harmonization, which increases CAS 

expense in 2013 and beyond, we would expect after 2013 our FAS/CAS Pension Adjustment expense to decline and ultimately 

result in FAS/CAS Pension Adjustment income in 2015. 

The  pension  and  other  postretirement  benefit  plans’  investments  are  stated  at  fair  value.  Investments  in  equity  securities 

(common and preferred) are valued at the last reported sales price when an active market exists. Investments in fixed-income 

securities  are  generally  valued  using  methods  based  upon  market  transactions  for  comparable  securities  and  various 

relationships between securities which are generally recognized by institutional traders. Investments in private equity and 

private real estate funds are estimated at fair market value which primarily utilizes net asset values reported by the investment 

manager or fund administrator. We review independently appraised values, audited financial statements and additional pricing 

information to evaluate the net asset values. For the very limited group of securities and other assets for which market quotations 

are not readily available or for which the above valuation procedures are deemed not to reflect fair value, additional information 

is obtained from the investment manager and evaluated internally to determine whether any adjustments are required to reflect 

fair value. The change in accumulated other comprehensive loss (AOCL) related to pension and other postretirement benefit 

plans is as follows:

The balance in AOCL related to our pension and other postretirement benefit plans is composed primarily of differences 

between changes in discount rates, differences between actual and expected asset returns, differences between actual and 

assumed demographic experience and changes in plan provisions. Changes to our pension and other postretirement benefit 

obligation as a result of these variables are initially reflected in other comprehensive income. The deferred gains and losses 

are amortized and included in future pension expense over the average employee service period of approximately 10 years at 

December 31, 2012. The $2,225 million in 2012 losses arising during the period were driven primarily by the decrease in the 

discount rate from 5.00% at December 31, 2011 to 4.15% at December 31, 2012, which had an impact of approximately $2.0 

billion. The $3,645 million in 2011 losses arising during the period were driven primarily by the decrease in the discount rate 

from 5.75% at December 31, 2010 to 5.00% at December 31, 2011, which had an impact of approximately $1.7 billion, as 

well as actual asset returns which were lower than our expected return, which had an impact of approximately $1.5 billion. 

The $978 million in 2010 losses arising during the period were driven primarily by the decrease in the discount rate from 

6.25% at December 31, 2009 to 5.75% at December 31, 2010, which had an impact of approximately $1.0 billion. The historical 

25-year average high quality corporate bond rate is approximately 7%. If our pension benefit obligations were valued at the 

historical average rate, we would expect our pension funded status, on a projected benefit obligation basis, to approximate 

100% and the corresponding AOCL to be substantially reduced.

Impairment of Goodwill
We evaluate our goodwill for impairment annually as of the first day of the fourth quarter and in any interim period in which 
circumstances arise that indicate our goodwill may be impaired. Indicators of impairment include, but are not limited to, the 
loss of significant business, significant decreases in federal government appropriations or funding for our contracts, or other 
significant adverse changes in industry or market conditions. No events occurred during the periods presented that indicated 
the existence of an impairment with respect to our goodwill. We estimate the fair value of our reporting units using a discounted 
cash flow (DCF) model based on our most recent long-range plan in place at the time of our impairment testing, and compare 
the estimated fair value of each reporting unit to its net book value, including goodwill. We discount the cash flow forecasts 
using the weighted-average cost of capital method at the date of evaluation. The weighted-average cost of capital is comprised 
of the estimated required rate of return on equity, based on publicly available data for peer companies, plus an equity risk 
premium related to specific company risk factors, and the after-tax rate of return on debt, weighted at the relative values of 
the estimated debt and equity for the industry. Preparation of forecasts for use in the long-range plan and the selection of the 
discount rate involve significant judgments that we base primarily on existing firm orders, expected future orders, contracts 
with suppliers, labor agreements and general market conditions. Significant changes in these forecasts or the discount rate 
selected could affect the estimated fair value of one or more of our reporting units and could result in a goodwill impairment 
charge in a future period. The combined estimated fair value of all of our reporting units from our DCF model resulted in a 
premium over our market capitalization, commonly referred to as a control premium. We believe our control premium is 
reasonable based  upon  historic  data of  premiums  paid on  actual transactions  within our  industry. When  available and  as 
appropriate, we also use comparative market multiples to corroborate our DCF model results. There was no indication of 
goodwill impairment as a result of our 2012 impairment analysis. The fair values of each of our reporting units exceeded their 
respective net book values, including goodwill. Based on our 2012 impairment analysis, the reporting unit that was closest to 
impairment had a fair value in excess of net book value, including goodwill, of more than 47%. All other factors being equal, 
a 10% decrease in expected future cash flows for that reporting unit would result in an excess of fair value over net book value 
of approximately 30%. Alternatively, all other factors being equal, a 100 basis points increase in the discount rate used in the 
calculation of the fair value of that reporting unit would result in an excess of fair value over net book value of approximately 
25%. If we are required to record an impairment charge in the future, it could materially affect our results of operations.

Total Net Sales - 2012 vs. 2011—The decrease in total net sales of $377 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily due 

to lower external net sales of $405 million at NCS. The decrease in external net sales at NCS was primarily due to lower net 

sales on U.S. Army sensor programs driven principally by planned declines in production, on certain radio and communications

Impairment of Goodwill

We evaluate our goodwill for impairment annually as of the first day of the fourth quarter and in any interim period in which 

circumstances arise that indicate our goodwill may be impaired. Indicators of impairment include, but are not limited to, the 

loss of significant business, significant decreases in federal government appropriations or funding for our contracts, or other 

significant adverse changes in industry or market conditions. No events occurred during the periods presented that indicated 

the existence of an impairment with respect to our goodwill. We estimate the fair value of our reporting units using a discounted 

cash flow (DCF) model based on our most recent long-range plan in place at the time of our impairment testing, and compare 

the estimated fair value of each reporting unit to its net book value, including goodwill. We discount the cash flow forecasts 

using the weighted-average cost of capital method at the date of evaluation. The weighted-average cost of capital is comprised 

of the estimated required rate of return on equity, based on publicly available data for peer companies, plus an equity risk 

premium related to specific company risk factors, and the after-tax rate of return on debt, weighted at the relative values of 

the estimated debt and equity for the industry. Preparation of forecasts for use in the long-range plan and the selection of the 

discount rate involve significant judgments that we base primarily on existing firm orders, expected future orders, contracts 

with suppliers, labor agreements and general market conditions. Significant changes in these forecasts or the discount rate 

selected could affect the estimated fair value of one or more of our reporting units and could result in a goodwill impairment 

charge in a future period. The combined estimated fair value of all of our reporting units from our DCF model resulted in a 

premium over our market capitalization, commonly referred to as a control premium. We believe our control premium is 

reasonable based  upon  historic  data of  premiums  paid on  actual transactions  within our  industry. When  available and  as 

appropriate, we also use comparative market multiples to corroborate our DCF model results. There was no indication of 

goodwill impairment as a result of our 2012 impairment analysis. The fair values of each of our reporting units exceeded their 

respective net book values, including goodwill. Based on our 2012 impairment analysis, the reporting unit that was closest to 

impairment had a fair value in excess of net book value, including goodwill, of more than 47%. All other factors being equal, 

a 10% decrease in expected future cash flows for that reporting unit would result in an excess of fair value over net book value 

of approximately 30%. Alternatively, all other factors being equal, a 100 basis points increase in the discount rate used in the 

calculation of the fair value of that reporting unit would result in an excess of fair value over net book value of approximately 

25%. If we are required to record an impairment charge in the future, it could materially affect our results of operations.

programs  driven  principally  by  reduced  customer  program  requirements,  on  acoustic  sensor  systems  due  to  higher  2011 
deliveries based on customer demand, on various air traffic control programs due to planned declines in production and on 
an international command, control, communications, computers and intelligence (C4I) program driven principally by program 
schedule requirements. The lower net sales at NCS were partially offset by higher net sales on a close combat tactical radar 
program and an air traffic control program due to planned increases in production.

Products and Services Net Sales - 2012 vs. 2011—The decrease in product net sales of $345 million in 2012 compared to 
2011 was primarily due to lower external product net sales of $355 million at NCS. The decrease in external product net sales 
at NCS was primarily due to the activity on the programs described above. Service net sales in 2012 were relatively consistent 
with 2011. Included in service net sales in 2012 was higher external service net sales of $115 million at IIS, partially offset 
by lower external service net sales of $103 million at TS. The increase in external service net sales at IIS was primarily due 
to higher service net sales on classified programs and on cybersecurity solutions driven by recent acquisitions and increased 
customer orders. The decrease in external service net sales at TS was primarily due to lower external service net sales on the 
NSF Polar contract, which was completed in the first quarter of 2012.

Total Net Sales - 2011 vs. 2010—The decrease in total net sales of $359 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due 
to lower external net sales of $492 million at IDS, $380 million at NCS and $143 million at TS, partially offset by higher 
external net sales of $501 million at SAS and $259 million at IIS. The decrease in external net sales at IDS was primarily due 
to lower net sales from the scheduled completion of certain design and production phases on a U.S. Navy combat systems 
program and the deferment of certain work due to the U.S. Navy's extension of the program schedule and lower net sales, as 
planned, on an international Patriot program driven by the completion of scheduled design and certain production efforts. The 
decrease in external net sales at NCS was primarily due to lower net sales on U.S. Army sensor programs due to a planned 
decline in production, lower net sales on a combat vehicle sensor program, due to a program restructuring and related termination 
for convenience, and lower net sales on a U.S. Army radar support program, principally due to the completion of significant 
upgrade efforts, partially offset by higher net sales on numerous programs, including acoustic sensor system sales and combat 
vehicle sensor program sales for domestic and international customers. The decrease in external net sales at TS was primarily 
due to lower net sales on a Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) program which completed significant efforts at the 
end of 2010 and lower net sales on training programs, principally domestic training programs supporting the U.S. Army's 
Warfighter Field Operations Customer Support (FOCUS) activities due to a decrease in customer determined activity levels, 
partially offset by higher net sales on various depot services operations programs, driven primarily by new contract awards. 
The increase in external net sales at SAS was primarily due to higher net sales related to Raytheon Applied Signal Technology 
(RAST), which we acquired in the first quarter of 2011, higher volume on ISR systems programs due to increased bookings 
over the last few years driven by customer demand for these capabilities, and higher volume, as production work increased, 
as planned, on an international airborne tactical radar program awarded in the first half of 2010. The increase in external net 
sales at IIS was primarily due to the difference in net sales from the UKBA program on which RSL was notified of its termination 
in the second quarter of 2010 (UKBA Program), as described in Commitments and Contingencies, beginning on page 72. Net 
sales from the UKBA Program in 2011 were higher than 2010 by $240 million, primarily driven by the adjustment recorded 
in the second quarter of 2010 from a change in our estimated revenue and costs (UKBA Program Adjustment), which negatively 
impacted sales by $316 million. Also included in the increase in external net sales at IIS was higher net sales on a GPS 
command, control, and mission capabilities program awarded in the first quarter of 2010, primarily as a result of scheduled 
design and build efforts.

Products and Services Net Sales - 2011 vs. 2010—The decrease in product net sales of $638 million in 2011 compared to 
2010 was primarily due to lower external product net sales of $427 million at NCS, $391 million at IDS and $129 million at 
MS, partially offset by higher external product net sales of $328 million at SAS. The decrease in external product net sales at 
IDS and NCS and the increase in external product net sales at SAS were primarily due to the activity in the programs described 
above. The decrease in external product net sales at MS was primarily due to lower net sales on the Standard Missile-2 (SM-2), 
Evolved Seasparrow Missile (ESSM) and Standard Missile-3 (SM-3) programs, principally from lower volume driven by 
scheduled lower production build rates. The decrease in external product net sales at MS was partially offset by higher net 
sales on the Small Diameter Bomb II (SDB II) and Paveway™ programs, principally from higher volume due to scheduled 
increases in design and production efforts. The increase in service net sales of $279 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was 
primarily due to higher external service net sales of $202 million at IIS and $173 million at SAS, partially offset by lower 
external service net sales of $101 million at IDS. The increase in external service net sales at IIS was primarily due to higher 
service net sales on classified programs. The increase in external service net sales at SAS was primarily due to increased 
volume on ISR systems programs and higher service net sales related to RAST. The decrease in external service net sales at 

IDS was spread across numerous programs with no individual or common significant driver.

Sales to Major Customers—Sales to the DoD were 82%, 82% and 85% of total net sales in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. 

Sales to the U.S. Government were 86% of total net sales in 2012 and 2011, and 89% of total net sales in 2010. Included in 

both DoD and U.S. Government sales were foreign military sales through the U.S. Government of $3.2 billion, $3.0 billion 

and $3.3 billion in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. As described above in Industry Considerations, U.S. defense spending 

levels are difficult to predict due to numerous factors, including U.S. Government budget appropriation decisions and geo-

political events and macroeconomic conditions. Total international sales, including foreign military sales through the U.S. 

Government, were $6.2 billion or 26% of total net sales, $6.1 billion or 25% of total net sales and $5.8 billion or 23% of total 

net sales in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Total Cost of Sales

Cost of sales, for both products and services, consists of labor, material and subcontract costs, as well as related allocated 

costs. For each of our contracts, we manage the nature and amount of direct costs at the contract level, and manage indirect 

costs through cost pools as required by government accounting regulations. The estimate of the actual amount of direct costs 

and indirect costs form the basis for estimating our total costs at completion of the contract. 

Total Cost of Sales - 2012 vs. 2011—The decrease in total cost of sales of $572 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily 

due to decreased external costs of $196 million at NCS and $132 million at TS, and $82 million of lower expense in 2012 

compared to 2011 related to the FAS/CAS Adjustment described below in Segment Results. The decrease in external costs at 

NCS was driven primarily by the activity on the programs described above in Total Net Sales. The decrease in external costs 

at TS was driven primarily by the activity on the NSF Polar contract described above in Total Net Sales. Included in cost of 

sales in 2011 was $80 million related to the drawdown by the UKBA on letters of credit provided by RSL (UKBA LOC 

Adjustment), as described in Commitments and Contingencies, beginning on page 72.

Products and Services Cost of Sales - 2012 vs. 2011—The decrease in products cost of sales of $533 million in 2012 compared 

to 2011 was primarily due to lower external product cost of sales of $188 million at IIS, $147 million at NCS, and $120 million 

at SAS. The decrease in external product cost of sales at IIS was driven principally by activity on the UKBA Program, including 

$80 million related to the UKBA LOC Adjustment in the first quarter of 2011, as described in Commitments and Contingencies 

beginning on page 72. The decrease in external product cost of sales at NCS was driven principally by the activity on the 

programs described above in Total Net Sales. The decrease in external product cost of sales at SAS was primarily due to 

activity on various classified programs. Service cost of sales in 2012 was relatively consistent with 2011. Included in services 

cost of sales in 2012 was higher external service cost of sales of $107 million at IIS, driven principally by the activity on the 

programs described above in Total Net Sales, partially offset by lower external service cost of sales of $101 million at TS, 

driven principally by the activity on the NSF Polar contract described above in Total Net Sales. 

Total Cost of Sales - 2011 vs. 2010—The decrease in total cost of sales of $609 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily 

due to decreased external costs of $479 million at IDS, driven primarily by the activity on the U.S. Navy combat systems 

program and international Patriot program described above in Total Net Sales, $340 million at NCS, driven primarily by the 

activity on the U.S. Army sensor programs, combat vehicle sensor program and a U.S. Army radar support program described 

above in Total Net Sales, partially offset by the activity on numerous other programs, including acoustic sensor system sales 

and combat vehicle sensor program sales for domestic and international customers described above in Total Net Sales, and 

$146 million at TS driven primarily by the activity on the DTRA program and training programs described above in Total Net 

Sales, partially offset by the activity on depot services operation programs described above in Total Net Sales. The decreases 

in external costs were partially offset by increased external costs of $395 million at SAS driven primarily by the activity on 

RAST programs, the ISR systems programs, and the international airborne tactical radar program described above in Total 

Net Sales, and $150 million of higher expense in 2011 compared to 2010 related to the FAS/CAS Adjustment described below 

in Segment Results. Included in cost of sales in the 2011 was $80 million related to the drawdown by the UKBA on letters of 

credit provided by RSL (UKBA LOC Adjustment), as described in Commitments and Contingencies, beginning on page 72. 

Included in cost of sales in 2010 was $79 million related to the UKBA Program Adjustment described above in Total Net 

Sales. 

Products and Services Cost of Sales - 2011 vs. 2010—The decrease in product cost of sales of $755 million in 2011 compared 

to 2010 was primarily due to lower external product cost of sales of $384 million at IDS and $349 million at NCS, driven 

principally by the activity on the programs described above, $188 million at IIS, driven primarily by activity on the UKBA 

Program described above in Total Net Sales and lower external product net sales on various classified programs, and $152

Products and Services Net Sales - 2011 vs. 2010—The decrease in product net sales of $638 million in 2011 compared to 

2010 was primarily due to lower external product net sales of $427 million at NCS, $391 million at IDS and $129 million at 

MS, partially offset by higher external product net sales of $328 million at SAS. The decrease in external product net sales at

Sales to Major Customers—Sales to the DoD were 82%, 82% and 85% of total net sales in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. 
Sales to the U.S. Government were 86% of total net sales in 2012 and 2011, and 89% of total net sales in 2010. Included in 
both DoD and U.S. Government sales were foreign military sales through the U.S. Government of $3.2 billion, $3.0 billion 
and $3.3 billion in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. As described above in Industry Considerations, U.S. defense spending 
levels are difficult to predict due to numerous factors, including U.S. Government budget appropriation decisions and geo-
political events and macroeconomic conditions. Total international sales, including foreign military sales through the U.S. 
Government, were $6.2 billion or 26% of total net sales, $6.1 billion or 25% of total net sales and $5.8 billion or 23% of total 
net sales in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Total Cost of Sales
Cost of sales, for both products and services, consists of labor, material and subcontract costs, as well as related allocated 
costs. For each of our contracts, we manage the nature and amount of direct costs at the contract level, and manage indirect 
costs through cost pools as required by government accounting regulations. The estimate of the actual amount of direct costs 
and indirect costs form the basis for estimating our total costs at completion of the contract. 

Total Cost of Sales - 2012 vs. 2011—The decrease in total cost of sales of $572 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily 
due to decreased external costs of $196 million at NCS and $132 million at TS, and $82 million of lower expense in 2012 
compared to 2011 related to the FAS/CAS Adjustment described below in Segment Results. The decrease in external costs at 
NCS was driven primarily by the activity on the programs described above in Total Net Sales. The decrease in external costs 
at TS was driven primarily by the activity on the NSF Polar contract described above in Total Net Sales. Included in cost of 
sales in 2011 was $80 million related to the drawdown by the UKBA on letters of credit provided by RSL (UKBA LOC 
Adjustment), as described in Commitments and Contingencies, beginning on page 72.

Products and Services Cost of Sales - 2012 vs. 2011—The decrease in products cost of sales of $533 million in 2012 compared 
to 2011 was primarily due to lower external product cost of sales of $188 million at IIS, $147 million at NCS, and $120 million 
at SAS. The decrease in external product cost of sales at IIS was driven principally by activity on the UKBA Program, including 
$80 million related to the UKBA LOC Adjustment in the first quarter of 2011, as described in Commitments and Contingencies 
beginning on page 72. The decrease in external product cost of sales at NCS was driven principally by the activity on the 
programs described above in Total Net Sales. The decrease in external product cost of sales at SAS was primarily due to 
activity on various classified programs. Service cost of sales in 2012 was relatively consistent with 2011. Included in services 
cost of sales in 2012 was higher external service cost of sales of $107 million at IIS, driven principally by the activity on the 
programs described above in Total Net Sales, partially offset by lower external service cost of sales of $101 million at TS, 
driven principally by the activity on the NSF Polar contract described above in Total Net Sales. 

Total Cost of Sales - 2011 vs. 2010—The decrease in total cost of sales of $609 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily 
due to decreased external costs of $479 million at IDS, driven primarily by the activity on the U.S. Navy combat systems 
program and international Patriot program described above in Total Net Sales, $340 million at NCS, driven primarily by the 
activity on the U.S. Army sensor programs, combat vehicle sensor program and a U.S. Army radar support program described 
above in Total Net Sales, partially offset by the activity on numerous other programs, including acoustic sensor system sales 
and combat vehicle sensor program sales for domestic and international customers described above in Total Net Sales, and 
$146 million at TS driven primarily by the activity on the DTRA program and training programs described above in Total Net 
Sales, partially offset by the activity on depot services operation programs described above in Total Net Sales. The decreases 
in external costs were partially offset by increased external costs of $395 million at SAS driven primarily by the activity on 
RAST programs, the ISR systems programs, and the international airborne tactical radar program described above in Total 
Net Sales, and $150 million of higher expense in 2011 compared to 2010 related to the FAS/CAS Adjustment described below 
in Segment Results. Included in cost of sales in the 2011 was $80 million related to the drawdown by the UKBA on letters of 
credit provided by RSL (UKBA LOC Adjustment), as described in Commitments and Contingencies, beginning on page 72. 
Included in cost of sales in 2010 was $79 million related to the UKBA Program Adjustment described above in Total Net 
Sales. 

Products and Services Cost of Sales - 2011 vs. 2010—The decrease in product cost of sales of $755 million in 2011 compared 
to 2010 was primarily due to lower external product cost of sales of $384 million at IDS and $349 million at NCS, driven 
principally by the activity on the programs described above, $188 million at IIS, driven primarily by activity on the UKBA 
Program described above in Total Net Sales and lower external product net sales on various classified programs, and $152

million at MS, driven principally by the activity on the programs described above in Total Net Sales. The decrease in product 
cost of sales was partially offset by higher external product cost of sales of $266 million at SAS, driven primarily by the 
activity in the programs described above. The increase in service cost of sales of $146 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was 
primarily due to higher external service cost of sales of $129 million at SAS, driven principally by the activity on ISR systems 
programs and RAST described above in Total Net Sales, and $118 million at IIS, driven principally by the activity on classified 
programs described above in Total Net Sales. The increase in service cost of sales was partially offset by lower external service 
cost of sales of $95 million at IDS, which was spread across numerous programs with no individual or common significant 
driver.

Administrative and Selling Expenses
The decrease in administrative and selling expenses of $43 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily due to decreases 
in marketing and selling expenses of $47 million, $27 million lower of acquisition-related costs for RAST, and a $15 million 
increase in insurance recovery, net of legal and period expenses, in connection with the UKBA Program dispute and arbitration 
at IIS, partially offset by an increase of $62 million in state taxes allocated to our contracts.

The increase in administrative and selling expenses of $33 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to $62 million 
of acquisition-related expenses and $35 million of increased marketing and selling costs, the largest increase of which was 
for opportunities on electronic warfare, airborne radar, NASA and certain classified programs, partially offset by a decrease 
of $43 million in state taxes allocated to our contracts.

The provision for state income taxes can generally be recovered through the pricing of products and services to the U.S. 
Government. Net state income taxes allocated to our contracts were $78 million, $16 million and $59 million in 2012, 2011, 
and 2010, respectively.

Research and Development Expenses
The increase in research and development expenses of $79 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily related to increased 
bid and proposal expenses due to the timing of various radar, classified, electronic warfare and communications programs.

Research and development expenses remained relatively consistent in 2011 compared to 2010.

Total Operating Expenses
The decrease in total operating expenses of $536 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily due to the decrease in total 
cost of sales of $572 million, the primary drivers of which are described above in Total Cost of Sales.

The decrease in total operating expenses of $576 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to the decrease in total 
cost of sales of $609 million, the primary drivers of which are described above in Total Cost of Sales, partially offset by the 
increase  in  administrative  and  selling  expenses  of  $33  million,  the  primary  drivers  of  which  are  described  above  in 
Administrative and Selling Expenses.

Operating Income
The increase in operating income of $159 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily due to the decrease in total operating 
expenses of $536 million, the primary drivers of which are described above in Total Operating Expenses, partially offset by 
the decrease in total net sales of $377 million, the primary drivers of which are described above in Total Net Sales. Included 
in the change in operating income were the remaining net EAC adjustments described in Segment Results beginning on page 
48.

The increase in operating income of $217 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to the decrease in total operating 
expenses of $576 million, the primary drivers of which are described above in Total Operating Expenses, partially offset by 
the decrease in total net sales of $359 million, the primary drivers of which are described above in Total Net Sales.

Total Non-Operating (Income) Expense, Net

The increase in total non-operating (income) expense, net of $40 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily due to the 

$29 million pretax charge associated with the make-whole provision on the early repurchase of long-term debt in the fourth 

quarter of 2012 and $29 million of higher interest expense, principally due to the issuance of $1.0 billion of fixed rate long-

term debt in the fourth quarter of 2011, partially offset by a $15 million change in the fair value of investments held in rabbi 

trusts  associated  with  certain  of  our  non-qualified deferred  compensation plans  due  to  a  net gain  of  $14 million  in 2012 

compared to a net loss of $1 million in 2011.

The decrease in total non-operating (income) expense, net of $9 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to the 

$73 million pretax charge associated with the make-whole provision on the early repurchase of long-term debt in the fourth 

quarter of 2010, partially offset by $46 million of higher interest expense, principally due to the issuance of $2.0 billion of 

fixed rate long-term debt in the fourth quarter of 2010, and an $18 million change in the fair value of investments held in rabbi 

trusts associated with certain of our non-qualified deferred compensation plans due to a net loss of $1 million in 2011 compared 

Our effective tax rate, which is used to determine federal and foreign income tax expense, differs from the U.S. statutory rate

to a net gain of $17 million in 2010.

Our effective tax rate reflects the 35% U.S. statutory rate adjusted for various permanent differences between book and tax 

reporting. During 2012, we received final approval from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and U.S. Congressional Joint 

Committee on Taxation of IRS Appeals Division settlement for the 2006–2008 IRS examination cycle (2012 Tax Settlement). 

As a result, all federal income tax audits prior to 2009 are closed. During 2011, we received final approval from the IRS and 

the U.S. Congressional Joint Committee on Taxation of our Minimum Tax Refund claim for the 2006–2008 IRS examination 

cycle, which related to items not included in the 2012 Tax Settlement (2011 Tax Settlement).  During 2010, we received final 

approval  from  the  IRS  and  the  U.S.  Congressional  Joint  Committee  on Taxation  for  a  settlement  of  the  1998-2005  IRS 

examination cycle (2010 Tax Settlement).

The increase in our effective tax rate of 2.2% in 2012 was primarily due to the difference between the 2011 and 2012 Tax 

Settlement amounts, which changed the rate by approximately 1.8%. Our effective tax rate in 2011 was 5.2% higher than 

2010  primarily  due  to  the  difference  between  the  2010  and  2011  Tax  Settlement  amounts,  which  changed  the  rate  by 

approximately 5.4%.

Our effective tax rate in 2012 was lower than the statutory federal tax rate primarily due to the domestic manufacturing 

deduction  which  decreased  the  rate  by  approximately  1.9%,  and  the  2012  Tax  Settlement,  which  decreased  the  rate  by 

approximately 0.8%. Our effective tax rate in 2011 was lower than the statutory federal tax rate primarily due to the 2011 Tax 

Settlement, which decreased the rate by approximately 2.6%, the domestic manufacturing deduction, which decreased the 

rate by approximately 1.8%, and the U.S. research and development tax credit, which decreased the rate by approximately 

1.0%.

before taxes.

The increase in diluted EPS from continuing operations attributable to Raytheon Company common stockholders of $0.43 in 

2012 compared to 2011 and in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to the decrease in diluted weighted average shares 

outstanding, which was affected by the common stock share activity shown in the table below.

Diluted  Earnings  (Loss)  per  Share  from  Discontinued  Operations  Attributable  to  Raytheon  Company 

Common Stockholders

Diluted earnings (loss) per share from discontinued operations attributable to Raytheon Company common stockholders was 

a loss of less than $0.01 in 2012, earnings of $0.05 in 2011, and earnings of $0.09 in 2010. The decreases in diluted earnings 

(loss) per share from discontinued operations attributable to Raytheon Company common stockholders of $0.05 in 2012 

compared to 2011 and $0.04 in 2011 compared to 2010 were primarily due to the activity described above in Income (loss) 

from Discontinued Operations, Net of Tax.

Diluted EPS Attributable to Raytheon Company Common Stockholders

Diluted EPS attributable to Raytheon Company common stockholders was $5.65 in 2012, $5.28 in 2011 and $4.88 in 2010. 

The increases in diluted EPS attributable to Raytheon Company common stockholders of $0.37 in 2012 compared to 2011 

and $0.40 in 2011 compared to 2010 were primarily due to the decreases in diluted shares, partially offset by the decreases 

in Diluted Earnings (Loss) per Share from Discontinued Operations Attributable to Raytheon Company Common Stockholders 

described above.

In January 2013, legislation was enacted that included the extension of the research and development tax credit. The legislation 
retroactively reinstated the research and development tax credit for 2012 and extended it through December 31, 2013, resulting 
in a total expected benefit of $50 million, approximately $25 million of which is for 2012 and will be recognized in the first 
quarter of 2013.  The remaining benefit relates to 2013 and will be recognized ratably during 2013.

Income from Continuing Operations
Income from continuing operations was $1,901 million, $1,878 million and $1,844 million in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. 
The increase in income from continuing operations of $23 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily due to the $159 
million increase in operating income, described above in Operating Income, partially offset by the $96 million increase in 
federal and foreign income taxes, related primarily to higher levels of income and the change in the effective tax rate described 
above in Federal and Foreign Income Taxes and the $40 million increase in total non-operating expenses, net, the primary 
drivers of which are described above in Total Non-Operating (Income) Expense, Net.

The increase in income from continuing operations of $34 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to the $217 
million increase in operating income described above in Operating Income and the $9 million decrease in total non-operating 
expenses, net, the primary drivers of which are described above in Total Non-Operating (Income) Expense, Net, partially 
offset by the $192 million increase in federal and foreign income taxes, related primarily to higher levels of income and the 
change in the effective tax rate described above in Federal and Foreign Income Taxes.

Income (loss) from Discontinued Operations, Net of Tax
The decrease in income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax, of $19 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily 
due to $19 million less of income, net of tax, related to our former turbo-prop commuter aircraft portfolio, Raytheon Airline 
Aviation Services (RAAS), in 2012 compared to 2011.

The decrease in income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax, of $17 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily 
due to the 2010 Tax Settlement, described above, which included an $89 million decrease in tax expense from discontinued 
operations, primarily related to our previous disposition of Raytheon Engineers and Constructors (RE&C), partially offset by 
a $39 million, net of the federal tax benefit, excise tax assessment in 2010 related to our previous disposition of Flight Options 
LLC (Flight Options), described below in Discontinued Operations, and $20 million more of income, net of tax, related to 
RAAS in 2011 compared to 2010.

Net Income
Net income was $1,900 million, $1,896 million and $1,879 million in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase in net 
income of $4 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily due to the increase in income from continuing operations of 
$23 million described above in Income from Continuing Operations, partially offset by the decrease in income (loss) from 
discontinued operations, net of tax, of $19 million, the primary drivers of which are described above in Income (loss) from 
Discontinued Operations, Net of Tax. 

The  increase  in  net  income  of  $17  million  in  2011  compared  to  2010  was  primarily  due  to  the  increase  in  income  from 
continuing operations of $34 million described above in Income from Continuing Operations, partially offset by the decrease 
in income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax, of $17 million, the primary drivers of which are described above 
in Income (loss) from Discontinued Operations, Net of Tax.

difference between the 2010 and 2011 Tax Settlement amounts described above and higher income from continuing operations 

before taxes.

The increase in diluted EPS from continuing operations attributable to Raytheon Company common stockholders of $0.43 in 
2012 compared to 2011 and in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to the decrease in diluted weighted average shares 
outstanding, which was affected by the common stock share activity shown in the table below.

Warrants to purchase shares of our common stock, with an exercise price of $37.50 per share, were included in our calculations 
of diluted EPS at December 31, 2011 and 2010. These warrants expired in June 2011. 

Diluted  Earnings  (Loss)  per  Share  from  Discontinued  Operations  Attributable  to  Raytheon  Company 
Common Stockholders
Diluted earnings (loss) per share from discontinued operations attributable to Raytheon Company common stockholders was 
a loss of less than $0.01 in 2012, earnings of $0.05 in 2011, and earnings of $0.09 in 2010. The decreases in diluted earnings 
(loss) per share from discontinued operations attributable to Raytheon Company common stockholders of $0.05 in 2012 
compared to 2011 and $0.04 in 2011 compared to 2010 were primarily due to the activity described above in Income (loss) 
from Discontinued Operations, Net of Tax.

Diluted EPS Attributable to Raytheon Company Common Stockholders
Diluted EPS attributable to Raytheon Company common stockholders was $5.65 in 2012, $5.28 in 2011 and $4.88 in 2010. 
The increases in diluted EPS attributable to Raytheon Company common stockholders of $0.37 in 2012 compared to 2011 
and $0.40 in 2011 compared to 2010 were primarily due to the decreases in diluted shares, partially offset by the decreases 
in Diluted Earnings (Loss) per Share from Discontinued Operations Attributable to Raytheon Company Common Stockholders 
described above.

In January 2013, legislation was enacted that included the extension of the research and development tax credit. The legislation 

retroactively reinstated the research and development tax credit for 2012 and extended it through December 31, 2013, resulting 

in a total expected benefit of $50 million, approximately $25 million of which is for 2012 and will be recognized in the first 

quarter of 2013.  The remaining benefit relates to 2013 and will be recognized ratably during 2013.

Income from Continuing Operations

Income from continuing operations was $1,901 million, $1,878 million and $1,844 million in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. 

The increase in income from continuing operations of $23 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily due to the $159 

million increase in operating income, described above in Operating Income, partially offset by the $96 million increase in 

federal and foreign income taxes, related primarily to higher levels of income and the change in the effective tax rate described 

above in Federal and Foreign Income Taxes and the $40 million increase in total non-operating expenses, net, the primary 

drivers of which are described above in Total Non-Operating (Income) Expense, Net.

The increase in income from continuing operations of $34 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to the $217 

million increase in operating income described above in Operating Income and the $9 million decrease in total non-operating 

expenses, net, the primary drivers of which are described above in Total Non-Operating (Income) Expense, Net, partially 

offset by the $192 million increase in federal and foreign income taxes, related primarily to higher levels of income and the 

change in the effective tax rate described above in Federal and Foreign Income Taxes.

Income (loss) from Discontinued Operations, Net of Tax

The decrease in income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax, of $19 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily 

due to $19 million less of income, net of tax, related to our former turbo-prop commuter aircraft portfolio, Raytheon Airline 

Aviation Services (RAAS), in 2012 compared to 2011.

The decrease in income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax, of $17 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily 

due to the 2010 Tax Settlement, described above, which included an $89 million decrease in tax expense from discontinued 

operations, primarily related to our previous disposition of Raytheon Engineers and Constructors (RE&C), partially offset by 

a $39 million, net of the federal tax benefit, excise tax assessment in 2010 related to our previous disposition of Flight Options 

LLC (Flight Options), described below in Discontinued Operations, and $20 million more of income, net of tax, related to 

RAAS in 2011 compared to 2010.

Net Income

Net income was $1,900 million, $1,896 million and $1,879 million in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase in net 

income of $4 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily due to the increase in income from continuing operations of 

$23 million described above in Income from Continuing Operations, partially offset by the decrease in income (loss) from 

discontinued operations, net of tax, of $19 million, the primary drivers of which are described above in Income (loss) from 

Discontinued Operations, Net of Tax. 

The  increase  in  net  income  of  $17  million  in  2011  compared  to  2010  was  primarily  due  to  the  increase  in  income  from 

continuing operations of $34 million described above in Income from Continuing Operations, partially offset by the decrease 

in income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax, of $17 million, the primary drivers of which are described above

Adjusted EPS
Adjusted EPS is diluted EPS from continuing operations attributable to Raytheon Company common stockholders excluding 
the EPS impact of the FAS/CAS Adjustment, tax effected at the federal statutory rate of 35% and, from time to time, certain 
other items. In addition to the FAS/CAS Adjustment, our 2012 Adjusted EPS also excludes the EPS impact of the make-whole 
provision on the early retirement of debt. In addition to the FAS/CAS Adjustment, our 2011 Adjusted EPS also excludes the 
EPS impact of the 2011 Tax Settlement, and the UKBA LOC Adjustment tax effected at the 2011 U.K. statutory tax rate of 
approximately 25%, as described in Commitments and Contingencies, beginning on page 72. In addition to the FAS/CAS 
Adjustment, our 2010 Adjusted EPS also excludes the EPS impact of the 2010 Tax Settlement, the UKBA Program Adjustment 
tax effected at the 2010 U.K. statutory rate of approximately 28%, the make-whole provision on the early retirement of debt, 
all previously described, and the impact of the acceleration of deferred gains related to terminated interest rate swaps on the 
retired debt. We are providing Adjusted EPS because management uses it for the purpose of evaluating and forecasting our 
financial performance and believes that it provides additional insight into our underlying business performance. We believe 
it allows investors to benefit from being able to assess our operating performance in the context of how our principal customer, 
the U.S. Government, allows us to recover pension and other postretirement benefits costs and to better compare our operating 
performance to others in the industry on that same basis. Adjusted EPS is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP 
and should be considered supplemental to and not a substitute for financial performance in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted 
EPS may not be defined and calculated by other companies in the same manner and the amounts presented may not recalculate 
directly due to rounding. Adjusted EPS was as follows:

SEGMENT RESULTS
We report our results in the following segments: IDS; IIS; MS; NCS; SAS; and TS. The following provides some context for 
viewing our segment performance through the eyes of management.

Given the nature of our business, bookings, net sales, and operating income (and the related operating margin percentage), 
which we disclose and discuss at the segment level, are most relevant to an understanding of management’s view of our 
segment performance, and often these measures have significant interrelated effects, as described below. In addition, we 
disclose and discuss backlog, which represents future sales that we expect to recognize over the remaining contract period, 
which  is  generally  several  years. We  also  disclose  cost  of  sales  and  the  components  of  cost  of  sales  within  our  segment 
disclosures.

Bookings—We disclose the amount of bookings and notable contract awards for each segment. Bookings generally represent 
the dollar value of new contracts awarded to us during the reporting period and include firm orders for which funding has not 
been appropriated. We believe bookings are an important measure of future performance and are an indicator of potential 
future changes in net sales, because we cannot record revenues under a new contract without first having a booking in the 
current or a preceding period (i.e., a contract award).

Total  Net  Sales—We  generally  express  changes  in  net  sales  in  terms  of  volume. Volume  generally  refers  to  increases  or 
decreases  in  revenues  related  to  varying  amounts  of  total  operating  expenses,  which  are  comprised  of  cost  of  sales, 
administrative and selling expenses, and research and development expenses, incurred on individual contracts (i.e., from 
performance  against  contractual  commitments  on  our  bookings  related  to  engineering,  production  or  service  activity). 
Therefore, we discuss volume changes attributable principally to individual programs unless there is a discrete event (e.g., a 
major contract termination, natural disaster or major labor strike), or some other unusual item that has a material effect on 
changes in a segment's volume for a reported period. Due to the nature of our contracts, the amount of costs incurred and 

related revenues will naturally fluctuate over the lives of our contracts. As a result, in any reporting period, the changes in 

volume on numerous contracts are likely to be due to normal fluctuations in our engineering, production or service activities. 

Total Operating Expenses—We generally disclose operating expenses for each segment in terms of the following: 1) cost of 

sales—labor; 2) cost of sales—materials and subcontractors; and 3) other costs of sales and other operating expenses. Included 

in cost of sales—labor is the incurred direct labor associated with the performance of contracts in the current period and any 

applicable overhead and fringe costs. Included in cost of sales—materials and subcontractors is the incurred direct materials, 

subcontractor costs (which include effort performed by other Raytheon segments), and applicable overhead allocations in the 

current period. Included in other cost of sales and other operating expenses is other direct costs not captured in labor or material 

and subcontractor costs, such as precontract costs previously deferred, costs previously deferred into inventory on contracts 

using commercial or units of delivery accounting, applicable overhead allocations, general and administrative costs, research 

and development costs (including bid and proposal costs), other direct costs (such as ancillary services and travel expenses) 

and adjustments for loss contracts.

Operating Income (and the related operating margin percentage)—We generally express changes in segment operating income 

in terms of volume, net changes in EAC adjustments or changes in contract mix and other program performance.    

The impact of changes in volume on operating income excludes the impact of net EAC adjustments and the impact of changes 

in contract mix and other program performance and is calculated based on changes in costs on individual programs at an 

Changes in net EAC adjustments typically relate to the current period impact of revisions to total estimated revenues and costs 

at completion. These changes reflect improved or deteriorated operating performance or award fee rates. We have a Company-

wide standard and disciplined quarterly EAC process in which management reviews the progress and performance of our 

contracts. As part of this process, management reviews information including, but not limited to, any outstanding key contract 

matters, progress towards completion and the related program schedule, identified risks and opportunities, and the related 

changes in estimates of revenues and costs. The risks and opportunities include management's judgment about the ability and 

cost to achieve the schedule (e.g., the number and type of milestone events), technical requirements (e.g., a newly-developed 

product  versus  a  mature  product),  and  other  contract  requirements.  Management  must  make  assumptions  and  estimates 

regarding labor productivity and availability, the complexity of the work to be performed, the availability of materials, the 

length  of  time  to  complete  the  contract  (to  estimate  increases  in  wages  and  prices  for  materials and  related  support  cost 

allocations), performance by our subcontractors, the availability and timing of funding from our customer, and overhead cost 

rates, among other variables. These estimates also include the estimated cost of satisfying our industrial cooperation agreements, 

sometimes referred to as offset obligations required under certain contracts. Based on this analysis, any quarterly adjustments 

to net sales, cost of sales, and the related impact to operating income are recorded as necessary in the period they become 

known. These adjustments may result from positive program performance, and may result in an increase in operating income 

during the performance of individual contracts, if we determine we will be successful in mitigating risks surrounding the 

technical, schedule, and cost aspects of those contracts or realizing related opportunities. Likewise, these adjustments may 

result in a decrease in operating income if we determine we will not be successful in mitigating these risks or realizing related 

opportunities. Changes in estimates of net sales, cost of sales, and the related impact to operating income are recognized 

quarterly on a cumulative catch-up basis, which recognizes in the current period the cumulative effect of the changes on current 

and prior periods based on a contract's percentage of completion. A significant change in one or more of these estimates could 

affect the profitability of one or more of our contracts. Given that we have over 15,000 individual contracts and the types and 

complexity of the assumptions and estimates we must make on an on-going basis, as discussed above, we have both favorable 

and unfavorable EAC adjustments. We had the following aggregate EAC adjustments for the periods presented:

Operating Income (and the related operating margin percentage)—We generally express changes in segment operating income 
in terms of volume, net changes in EAC adjustments or changes in contract mix and other program performance.    

The impact of changes in volume on operating income excludes the impact of net EAC adjustments and the impact of changes 
in contract mix and other program performance and is calculated based on changes in costs on individual programs at an 
overall margin for the segment.

Changes in net EAC adjustments typically relate to the current period impact of revisions to total estimated revenues and costs 
at completion. These changes reflect improved or deteriorated operating performance or award fee rates. We have a Company-
wide standard and disciplined quarterly EAC process in which management reviews the progress and performance of our

for the UKBA LOC Adjustment of $80 million and there were two significant individual EAC adjustments in 2010, the UKBA

The $65 million increase in net EAC adjustments in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily due to the impact of the UKBA 
LOC Adjustment described above.

The $390 million increase in net EAC adjustments in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to the impact of the UKBA 
Program Adjustment described above. 

Changes in contract mix and other program performance refer to changes in operating margin due to a change in the relative 
volume of contracts with higher or lower fee rates such that the overall average margin rate for the segment changes and other 
drivers of program performance, including margin rate increases or decreases due to EAC adjustments in prior periods. A 
higher or lower expected fee rate at the initial award of a contract typically correlates to the contract's risk profile, which is 
often specifically driven by the type of customer and related procurement regulations, the type of contract (e.g., fixed price 
vs. cost plus), the maturity of the product or service, and the scope of work.

Because each segment has thousands of contracts in any reporting period, changes in operating income and margin are likely 
to be due to normal changes in volume, net EAC adjustments, and contract mix and other performance on many contracts 
with no single change, or series of related changes, materially driving a segment's change in operating income or operating 
margin percentage. 

Backlog—We disclose period-ending backlog for each segment. Backlog represents the dollar value of contracts awarded for 
which work has not been performed. Backlog generally increases with bookings and generally converts into sales as we incur 
costs  under  the  related  contractual  commitments.  Therefore,  we  discuss  changes  in  backlog,  including  any  significant 
cancellations, for each of our segments, as we believe such discussion provides an understanding of the awarded but not 
executed portions of our contracts.

Included in bookings were international bookings of $5,979 million, $7,692 million and $4,371 million in 2012, 2011 and 

2010, respectively, which included foreign military bookings through the U.S. Government. International bookings amounted 

to 23%, 29% and 18% of total bookings in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. 

We record bookings for not-to-exceed contract awards based on reasonable estimates of expected contract definitization, 

which  will  generally  not  be  less  than  75%  of  the  award. We  subsequently  adjust  bookings  to  reflect  the  actual  amounts 

definitized, or, when prior to definitization, when facts and circumstances indicate that our previously estimated amounts are 

no longer reasonable. The timing of awards that may cover multiple fiscal years influences the size of bookings in each year. 

Bookings exclude unexercised contract options and potential orders under ordering-type contracts (e.g., indefinite delivery/

indefinite quantity (IDIQ) type contracts), and are reduced for contract cancellations and terminations of bookings recognized 

in the current year. We reflect contract cancellations and terminations from prior year bookings, as well as the impact of 

changes in foreign exchange rates, directly as an adjustment to backlog in the period in which the cancellation or termination 

occurs and the impact is determinable.

Total backlog includes both funded backlog (unfilled orders for which funding is authorized, appropriated and contractually 

obligated by the customer) and unfunded backlog (firm orders for which funding has not been appropriated and/or contractually 

obligated by the customer). Revenue is generally not recognized on backlog until funded. Backlog excludes unexercised 

contract options and potential orders under ordering-type contracts (e.g., IDIQ). Both funded and unfunded backlog are affected 

by changes in foreign exchange rates. In 2010, IIS recorded a net backlog adjustment of $556 million as a result of the UKBA 

Program.

The $65 million increase in net EAC adjustments in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily due to the impact of the UKBA 

LOC Adjustment described above.

Program Adjustment described above. 

The $390 million increase in net EAC adjustments in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to the impact of the UKBA 

Changes in contract mix and other program performance refer to changes in operating margin due to a change in the relative 

volume of contracts with higher or lower fee rates such that the overall average margin rate for the segment changes and other 

drivers of program performance, including margin rate increases or decreases due to EAC adjustments in prior periods. A 

higher or lower expected fee rate at the initial award of a contract typically correlates to the contract's risk profile, which is 

often specifically driven by the type of customer and related procurement regulations, the type of contract (e.g., fixed price 

vs. cost plus), the maturity of the product or service, and the scope of work.

Because each segment has thousands of contracts in any reporting period, changes in operating income and margin are likely 

to be due to normal changes in volume, net EAC adjustments, and contract mix and other performance on many contracts 

with no single change, or series of related changes, materially driving a segment's change in operating income or operating 

margin percentage. 

Backlog—We disclose period-ending backlog for each segment. Backlog represents the dollar value of contracts awarded for 

which work has not been performed. Backlog generally increases with bookings and generally converts into sales as we incur 

costs  under  the  related  contractual  commitments.  Therefore,  we  discuss  changes  in  backlog,  including  any  significant 

cancellations, for each of our segments, as we believe such discussion provides an understanding of the awarded but not 

executed portions of our contracts.

IDS is a leader in integrated air and missile defense, radar solutions, and naval combat and ship electronic systems. IDS 
delivers combat-proven performance against the complete spectrum of airborne and ballistic missile threats and is a world 
leader in the technology, development and production of sensors and mission systems. IDS provides solutions to the U.S. 
Department of Defense (DoD), its services and agencies, and numerous international customers which represent approximately 
half of IDS’ business.

Total Net Sales—Total net sales in 2012 were relatively consistent with 2011. Included in total net sales in 2012 was higher 
net sales of $281 million on an international Patriot program awarded in the second quarter of 2011 as the program transitioned 
into full production, $194 million on a missile defense radar program for an international customer as the program transitioned 
into full production, and $155 million on various Patriot programs for an international customer, driven principally by scheduled 
program production requirements. The increase was partially offset by $210 million of lower net sales from the scheduled 
completion of certain design and production phases on an international Patriot program awarded in the first quarter of 2008, 
$164 million from the scheduled completion of certain design and production phases on a U.S. Navy combat systems program, 
and $144 million of lower net sales on various global integrated sensors programs. The remaining change in total net sales 
was spread across numerous programs with no individual or common significant driver.

The decrease in total net sales of $512 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to $316 million of lower net sales 
from the scheduled completion of certain design and production phases on a U.S. Navy combat systems program and the 
deferment of certain work due to the U.S. Navy's extension of the program schedule, and $175 million of lower net sales, as 
planned, on an international Patriot program driven principally by lower volume due to completion of scheduled design and 
certain production efforts.

Total Operating Expenses—Total operating expenses in 2012 remained relatively consistent with 2011. The decrease in other 

cost of sales and other operating expenses of $41 million was primarily due to lower outside service costs due to the scheduled 

completion of an international global integrated sensors program.

The decrease in total operating expenses of $478 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to the decreased volume 

on a U.S. Navy combat systems program and an international Patriot program for the reasons described above in Total Net 

Sales. The decrease in materials and subcontractor costs of $393 million was driven primarily by the decreased volume on 

these programs and the types of costs incurred in the respective periods based on the program requirements and program 

schedules. The decrease in labor costs of $97 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to lower net sales on 

numerous missile defense programs, driven principally by lower volume due to the completion of scheduled program design, 

development and production efforts, and decreased volume on a U.S. Navy combat systems program for the reasons described 

above in Total Net Sales.

Operating Income and Margin—The increase in operating income of $82 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily 

due to a change in mix and other performance of $81 million, principally driven by increased activity on certain international 

Patriot programs. The increase in operating margin in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily due to the change in mix and 

other performance.

The decrease in operating income of $34 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to decreased volume of $73 

million,  principally  driven  by  the  programs  described  above  in Total  Net  Sales,  partially  offset  by  a  net  change  in  EAC 

adjustments of $34 million, driven primarily by the amount of EAC adjustments on a U.S. Navy combat systems program. 

The increase in operating margin in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to the net change in EAC adjustments described 

above.

Backlog and Bookings—Backlog was $9,431 million, $9,766 million and $8,473 million at December 31, 2012, 2011 and 

2010, respectively. The decrease in backlog of $335 million or 3% at December 31, 2012 compared to December 31, 2011 

was primarily due to sales in excess of bookings in 2012, principally across our Integrated Air & Missile Defense product 

line. The increase in backlog of $1,293 million at December 31, 2011 compared to December 31, 2010 was primarily due to 

higher bookings in 2011 described below.

Bookings decreased by $1,724 million in 2012 compared to 2011, primarily due to the large 2011 Patriot air and missile 

defense system booking for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia described below. In 2012, IDS booked $422 million for production 

and sustainment of U.S. Army/U.S. Navy Transportable Radar Surveillance (AN/TPY-2) radars for the Missile Defense Agency 

(MDA), $366 million on the Zumwalt-class destroyer program for the U.S. Navy, $301 million to provide Patriot engineering 

services support for U.S. and international customers, $293 million to provide technical and logistics support for a Hawk and 

Patriot air and missile defense program for an international customer, $293 million on an Early Warning Surveillance Radar 

System (EWSRS) support program for Taiwan, $240 million to provide engineering services, production and support for the 

Aegis weapon system for the U.S. Navy, $199 million to provide Consolidated Contractor Logistics Support (CCLS) for the 

MDA, $198 million for the production of Airborne Low Frequency Sonar (ALFS) systems for the U.S. Navy, $184 million 

to provide advanced Patriot air and missile defense capability for an international customer, $172 million for the Upgraded 

Early Warning Radar (UEWR) system for the MDA and the U.S. Air Force, and $126 million to provide air and missile defense 

capability for the U.S. Army.

Bookings increased by $3,123 million in 2011 compared to 2010. In 2011, IDS booked $3,147 million for the Patriot Air 

and Missile Defense System, including $1,698 million for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, $560 million for Taiwan, $340 million 

for other international customers, and $257 million to provide engineering services support for U.S. and international customers. 

IDS booked $1,027 million for AN/TPY-2 radars, spares and training for the United Arab Emirates (UAE), MDA and U.S. 

Army. IDS also booked $345 million on the Zumwalt-class destroyer program for the U.S. Navy, $268 million for the production 

of ALFS systems and spares for the U.S. Navy and the Australian Navy, $193 million to provide CCLS for the MDA, and 

$107 million for development on the competitively awarded Space Fence program for the U.S. Air Force. 

In 2010, IDS booked $400 million to provide advanced Patriot air and missile defense capability for an international customer, 

$271 million on the Zumwalt-class destroyer program for the U.S. Navy, $228 million on the Aegis weapon system for the 

U.S. Navy, $222 million to provide engineering services support for a Patriot air and missile defense program for U.S. and 

international customers, $190 million for AN/TPY-2 radar for the MDA, $148 million to provide CCLS for the MDA, $131

2010, respectively. The decrease in backlog of $335 million or 3% at December 31, 2012 compared to December 31, 2011 
was primarily due to sales in excess of bookings in 2012, principally across our Integrated Air & Missile Defense product 
line. The increase in backlog of $1,293 million at December 31, 2011 compared to December 31, 2010 was primarily due to 
higher bookings in 2011 described below.

Bookings decreased by $1,724 million in 2012 compared to 2011, primarily due to the large 2011 Patriot air and missile 
defense system booking for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia described below. In 2012, IDS booked $422 million for production 
and sustainment of U.S. Army/U.S. Navy Transportable Radar Surveillance (AN/TPY-2) radars for the Missile Defense Agency 
(MDA), $366 million on the Zumwalt-class destroyer program for the U.S. Navy, $301 million to provide Patriot engineering

IIS is a leader in global intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR), advanced cyber solutions, and DoD space, weather 
and environmental solutions. Approximately half of its business is for classified customers. Key customers include the U.S. 
Intelligence  Community,  DoD  agencies,  the  National  Oceanic  and Atmospheric Administration  (NOAA),  Department  of 
Homeland Security (DHS), and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).

Total Net Sales— Total net sales in 2012 were relatively consistent with 2011. Included in total net sales in 2012 was $54 
million of lower net sales on the UKBA Program as a result of the program termination. Also included in total net sales in 
2012 was $75 million of higher net sales of cybersecurity solutions driven by recent acquisitions and increased customer 
orders and $72 million of higher net sales on the Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS) program primarily due to scheduled 
design and production efforts. The remaining change in total net sales was primarily spread across numerous domestic programs 
with no individual or common significant driver.

The increase in total net sales of $258 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to the difference in net sales from 
the UKBA Program. Net sales from the UKBA Program in 2010 were lower than 2011 by $240 million, primarily due to the 
UKBA  Program Adjustment,  as  described  in  Commitments  and  Contingencies  beginning  on  page  72,  which  negatively 
impacted 2010 net sales by $316 million. Also included in the increase in net sales was $85 million of higher net sales on a 
GPS command, control, and mission capabilities program awarded in the first quarter of 2010, primarily as a result of scheduled 
design and build efforts. The remaining change in total net sales was primarily spread across numerous domestic programs.

Total Operating Expenses—The decrease in total operating expenses of $91 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily 

due to the UKBA LOC Adjustment in the first quarter of 2011, as described in Commitments and Contingencies beginning 

on page 72, which had an impact of $80 million and primarily drove the change in other cost of sales and other operating 

expenses. The decrease in materials and subcontractor costs of $60 million was driven primarily by the activity on the UKBA 

Program as described above.

The decrease in total operating expenses of $58 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was driven primarily by a reduction in 

operating expenses related to the UKBA Program. Included in other cost of sales and other operating expenses in 2011 was 

$80 million related to the UKBA LOC Adjustment, as described in Commitments and Contingencies beginning on page 72. 

Included in other cost of sales and other operating expenses in 2010 was $79 million related to the UKBA Program Adjustment.

Operating Income and Margin—The increase in operating income of $88 million and the related increase in operating margin 

in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily due to a net change in EAC adjustments of $75 million, driven principally by the 

UKBA LOC Adjustment in the first quarter of 2011, which had an impact of $80 million. Mix and other performance in 2012 

included  $31  million  of  legal  and  other  period  expenses  in  connection  with  the  UKBA  Program  dispute  and  arbitration, 

compared to $21 million in 2011. Mix and other performance in 2012 also included an insurance recovery for legal expenses 

of $34 million, compared to $9 million in 2011. Operating income in 2012 and 2011 was reduced by approximately $18 million 

and $14 million, respectively, of certain cyber security-related acquisition costs and investments.

The increase in operating income of $316 million in 2011 compared to 2010 and the related increase in operating margin was 

primarily due to a net change in EAC adjustments of $297 million, principally driven by the UKBA Program Adjustment in 

2010, which had an impact of  $395 million, partially offset by the UKBA LOC Adjustment in 2011, which had an impact of 

$80 million. Operating income in 2011 included $21 million of legal and other period expenses in connection with the UKBA 

Program dispute and arbitration compared to $10 million of legal and other period costs in 2010. Operating income in 2011 

included $9 million relating to an insurance recovery. IIS' operating income was also reduced by approximately $14 million 

in 2011 and $17 million in 2010 by certain cyber security related acquisition costs and investments.  

Backlog and Bookings—Backlog was $3,989 million, $4,366 million and $4,319 million at December 31, 2012, 2011 and 

2010, respectively. The decrease in backlog of $377 million or 9% at December 31, 2012 compared to December 31, 2011 

was primarily due to sales in excess of bookings in 2012, primarily for the Global Positioning System Advanced Control 

Segment (GPS-OCX) and JPSS programs. Backlog at December 31, 2011 was relatively consistent with December 31, 2010.

Bookings decreased by $461 million in 2012 compared to 2011. In 2012, IIS booked $172 million on a contract to provide 

ISR support to the U.S. Air Force. IIS also booked $1,812 million on a number of classified contracts.

Bookings decreased by $492 million in 2011 compared to 2010. In 2011, IIS booked $520 million on the JPSS program for 

NASA, $183 million on a contract to provide ISR support to the U.S. Air Force and $134 million for development on the 

GPS-OCX program for the U.S. Air Force. IIS also booked $1,554 million on a number of classified contracts.

In 2010, IIS booked a $901 million award on a contract to develop the next-generation GPS-OCX for the U.S. Air Force, a 

$167 million booking on a major U.S. Air Force program, $80 million on the Earth Observing System Data and Information 

System (EOSDIS) contract for NASA and $1,723 million on a number of classified contracts, including $371 million on a 

major classified program.

MS is a premier developer and producer of missile systems for the armed forces of the U.S. and other allied nations. Leveraging 
its capabilities in advanced airframes, guidance and navigation systems, high-resolution sensors, targeting, and netted systems, 
MS develops and supports a broad range of advanced weapon systems, including missiles, smart munitions, close-in weapon 
systems, projectiles, kinetic kill vehicles and directed energy effectors. Key customers include the U.S. Navy, Army, Air Force 
and Marine Corps, the MDA and the armed forces of more than 40 allied nations.  

Total Net Sales—Total net sales in 2012 were relatively consistent with 2011. Included in total net sales was $170 million of 
higher net sales on the SM-3 program due to higher volume driven by scheduled increases in production and development 
efforts, partially offset by $141 million of lower net sales on the Tomahawk program due to lower volume driven by scheduled 
lower production rates. The remaining change in total net sales was spread across numerous programs with no individual or 
common significant driver.

The decrease in total net sales of $142 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to lower net sales of $210 million 
on the SM-2 program, $90 million on the ESSM program, and $70 million on the SM-3 program, principally from lower 
volume driven by scheduled lower production build rates. The decrease in net sales was partially offset by higher net sales of 
$92 million on the SDB II program and $86 million on the Paveway™ program, principally from higher volume due to scheduled 
increases in design and production efforts.

Total Operating Expenses—Total operating expenses in 2012 were relatively consistent with 2011. The increase in labor costs 
of $94 million was primarily due to labor volume on the SM-3 program as a result of higher scheduled production rates. The 
increase in other cost of sales and other operating expenses of $42 million was driven principally by a change in the amount 
of previously deferred precontract costs based on contract awards or funding, which had an impact of $84 million, partially

The decrease in total operating expenses of $185 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to the activity on the 

SM-2, ESSM and SM-3 programs for the reasons described above in Total Net Sales, partially offset by the activity in the 

SDB-II and Paveway™ programs for the reasons described above in Total Net Sales.

Operating Income and Margin—The increase in operating income of $26 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily 

due to the $43 million change in mix and other performance principally driven by a $15 million negative adjustment in 2011 

related to a contract settlement, and prior period EAC adjustments on certain classified and close-in weapons systems programs, 

which had an impact of $20 million, partially offset by the net decrease in EAC adjustments of $27 million, which included 

a $21 million favorable contract resolution in 2011.

The increase in operating income of $43 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to a net change in EAC adjustments 

of $54 million, principally driven by the amount of EAC adjustments on our air warfare systems programs, partially offset 

by lower volume of $26 million, driven principally by the programs described above in Total Net Sales.  Included in EAC 

adjustments in 2011 was a $21 million favorable contract resolution. Included in contract mix and other performance in 2011 

was a $15 million negative adjustment related to a contract settlement. The increase in operating margin in 2011 compared 

to 2010 was primarily due to the net change in EAC adjustments described above.

Backlog and Bookings—Backlog was $10,030 million, $8,570 million and $8,212 million at December 31, 2012, 2011 and 

2010, respectively. The increase in backlog of $1,460 million or 17% at December 31, 2012 compared to December 31, 2011 

was primarily due to the higher 2012 bookings described below. Backlog at December 31, 2011 was relatively consistent with 

December 31, 2010.

Bookings increased by $1,187 million in 2012 compared to 2011. In 2012, MS booked $1,421 million for the production and 

development of SM-3 and $855 million for the production of Exoatmospheric Kill Vehicle (EKV) contract for the MDA, $710 

million for Tomahawk for the U.S. Navy and international customers, $689 million for the production of Paveway™ for the 

U.S. Air Force and international customers, $553 million for the production of Advanced Medium-Range Air-to-Air Missile 

(AMRAAM) for the U.S. Air Force and international customers, $364 million for the production of Rolling Airframe Missile 

(RAM) for the U.S. Navy and international customers, $356 million for the production of tube-launched, optically-tracked, 

wireless-guided (TOW) missiles for the U.S. Army, $301 million for production of ESSM for the U.S. Navy and international 

customers,  $281  million  for  the  production  of  Standard  Missile-6  (SM-6)  for  the  U.S.  Navy,  $216    million  for AIM-9X 

Sidewinder short range Air-To-Air Missiles for the U.S. Navy and international customers, $190 million for Phalanx weapon 

systems for the U.S. Navy and international customers, and $105 million for production of Miniature Air-Launch Decoy

MS is a premier developer and producer of missile systems for the armed forces of the U.S. and other allied nations. Leveraging 

its capabilities in advanced airframes, guidance and navigation systems, high-resolution sensors, targeting, and netted systems, 

MS develops and supports a broad range of advanced weapon systems, including missiles, smart munitions, close-in weapon 

systems, projectiles, kinetic kill vehicles and directed energy effectors. Key customers include the U.S. Navy, Army, Air Force 

and Marine Corps, the MDA and the armed forces of more than 40 allied nations.  

Total Net Sales—Total net sales in 2012 were relatively consistent with 2011. Included in total net sales was $170 million of 

higher net sales on the SM-3 program due to higher volume driven by scheduled increases in production and development 

efforts, partially offset by $141 million of lower net sales on the Tomahawk program due to lower volume driven by scheduled 

lower production rates. The remaining change in total net sales was spread across numerous programs with no individual or 

common significant driver.

The decrease in total net sales of $142 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to lower net sales of $210 million 

on the SM-2 program, $90 million on the ESSM program, and $70 million on the SM-3 program, principally from lower 

volume driven by scheduled lower production build rates. The decrease in net sales was partially offset by higher net sales of 

$92 million on the SDB II program and $86 million on the Paveway™ program, principally from higher volume due to scheduled 

increases in design and production efforts.

Total Operating Expenses—Total operating expenses in 2012 were relatively consistent with 2011. The increase in labor costs 

of $94 million was primarily due to labor volume on the SM-3 program as a result of higher scheduled production rates. The 

increase in other cost of sales and other operating expenses of $42 million was driven principally by a change in the amount 

of previously deferred precontract costs based on contract awards or funding, which had an impact of $84 million, partially 

The decrease in total operating expenses of $185 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to the activity on the 
SM-2, ESSM and SM-3 programs for the reasons described above in Total Net Sales, partially offset by the activity in the 
SDB-II and Paveway™ programs for the reasons described above in Total Net Sales.

Operating Income and Margin—The increase in operating income of $26 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily 
due to the $43 million change in mix and other performance principally driven by a $15 million negative adjustment in 2011 
related to a contract settlement, and prior period EAC adjustments on certain classified and close-in weapons systems programs, 
which had an impact of $20 million, partially offset by the net decrease in EAC adjustments of $27 million, which included 
a $21 million favorable contract resolution in 2011.

The increase in operating income of $43 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to a net change in EAC adjustments 
of $54 million, principally driven by the amount of EAC adjustments on our air warfare systems programs, partially offset 
by lower volume of $26 million, driven principally by the programs described above in Total Net Sales.  Included in EAC 
adjustments in 2011 was a $21 million favorable contract resolution. Included in contract mix and other performance in 2011 
was a $15 million negative adjustment related to a contract settlement. The increase in operating margin in 2011 compared 
to 2010 was primarily due to the net change in EAC adjustments described above.

Backlog and Bookings—Backlog was $10,030 million, $8,570 million and $8,212 million at December 31, 2012, 2011 and 
2010, respectively. The increase in backlog of $1,460 million or 17% at December 31, 2012 compared to December 31, 2011 
was primarily due to the higher 2012 bookings described below. Backlog at December 31, 2011 was relatively consistent with 
December 31, 2010.

Bookings increased by $1,187 million in 2012 compared to 2011. In 2012, MS booked $1,421 million for the production and 
development of SM-3 and $855 million for the production of Exoatmospheric Kill Vehicle (EKV) contract for the MDA, $710 
million for Tomahawk for the U.S. Navy and international customers, $689 million for the production of Paveway™ for the 
U.S. Air Force and international customers, $553 million for the production of Advanced Medium-Range Air-to-Air Missile

NCS leverages the capabilities of the network through communications, sensors, and command and control systems, to develop 
and produce customer solutions for land combat modernization, international and domestic Air Traffic Management (ATM) 
and other transportation systems, military and civil communications, and homeland security. NCS key customers include the 
DoD, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and other U.S. Government customers, as well as numerous international 
customers. 

Total Net Sales—The decrease in total net sales of $439 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily due to $188 million 
of lower net sales on U.S. Army sensor programs driven principally by planned declines in production, $105 million of lower 
net sales on certain radio and communications programs driven principally by reduced customer program requirements, $85 
million of lower net sales of acoustic sensor systems due to higher 2011 deliveries based on customer demand, $74 million 
of lower net sales on various air traffic control programs due to planned declines in production and $61 million of lower net 
sales on an international command, control, communications, computers and intelligence (C4I) program driven principally 
by program schedule requirements. The lower net sales were partially offset by higher net sales of $109 million on a close 
combat tactical radar program and higher net sales of $62 million on an air traffic control program due to planned increases 
in  production. The  remaining  change  in  net  sales  was  spread  across  numerous  programs  with  no  individual  or  common 
significant driver.

The decrease in total net sales of $421 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to $283 million of lower net sales 

on U.S. Army sensor programs due to a planned decline in production, $124 million of lower net sales on a combat vehicle 

sensor program, principally from lower volume due to a program restructuring and related termination for convenience, and 

$98 million of lower net sales on a U.S. Army radar support program, principally due to the completion of significant upgrade 

efforts, partially offset by higher net sales on numerous programs, including a combined $106 million on acoustic sensor 

system sales and combat vehicle sensor program sales for domestic and international customers. 

Total Operating Expenses—The decrease in total operating expenses of $267 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was driven 

primarily by the activity on the programs, and for the reasons described above in Total Net Sales. The decrease in materials 

and subcontractor costs of $192 million was driven primarily by the activity on the programs, and for the reasons described 

above in Total Net Sales. The decrease in labor costs of $77 million was spread across numerous programs driven by the 

various reduced program requirements. 

The decrease in total operating expenses of $396 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was driven primarily by the activity on 

U.S. Army sensor programs, a combat vehicle sensor program and a U.S. Army radar support program for the reasons described 

above in Total Net Sales, partially offset by the activity on numerous programs, including acoustic sensor systems and a combat 

vehicle sensor program for domestic and international customers  as described above in Total Net Sales. The decrease in 

materials and subcontractor costs of $356 million was driven primarily by the net decreased volume on the programs described 

above due to a planned decline in production.

Operating Income and Margin—The decrease in operating income of $172 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily 

due to a change in mix and other performance of $131 million, driven primarily by reduced deliveries of acoustic sensor 

systems, and reduced sales on U.S. Army and other production programs. Included in the change in mix and other performance 

are $17 million of costs related to ending a supplier agreement and $14 million for inventory valuation allowances. The 

decrease in operating margin in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily due to the change in mix and other performance.

The decrease in operating income of $25 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to decreased volume, which 

had an impact of $59 million, principally driven by the programs described above in Total Net Sales, and a net change in EAC 

adjustments of $22 million, which was spread across numerous programs with no individual or common significant driver, 

partially offset by a change in contract mix and other performance of $56 million, principally driven by higher domestic and 

international acoustic sensor systems sales. Included in operating income in 2010 was a negative EAC adjustment of $28 

million relating to an infrastructure protection program as a result of a change in our estimated revenue and costs due to the 

termination of a subcontractor and the Company's subsequent direct assumption of that subcontractor's scope of work. The 

increase in operating margin in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to the change in contract mix and other performance 

and the net change in EAC adjustments described above.

Backlog and Bookings—Backlog was $4,364 million, $4,160 million and $4,912 million at December 31, 2012, 2011 and 

2010, respectively. The increase in backlog of $204 million or 5% at December 31, 2012 compared to December 31, 2011 

was primarily due to bookings in excess of external sales, principally within our C4I product line, primarily on an international 

C4I program, partially offset by our Combat and Sensing Systems (CSS) product line, primarily on U.S. Army programs. The 

decrease in backlog of $752 million at December 31, 2011 compared to December 31, 2010 was primarily due to external 

sales in excess of bookings in 2011, principally within our Combat and Sensing Systems (CSS) and C4I product lines, primarily 

on U.S. Army programs.

Bookings increased by $457 million in 2012 compared to 2011. In 2012, NCS booked $650 million on an international C4I 

program, $187 million for the Navy Multiband Terminal (NMT) program for the U.S. Navy and $173 million on the Standard 

Terminal Automation Replacement System (STARS) program for the FAA.

Bookings decreased by $402 million in 2011 compared to 2010. In 2011, NCS booked $211 million for the production of 

Sentinel radars, spares and services for the U.S. Army and international customers, $146 million for the Long Range Advanced 

Scout Surveillance Systems (LRAS3) program for the U.S. Army, $71 million for the Thermal Weapon Sight (TWS) program 

for the U.S. Army and $64 million for Enhanced Position Location Reporting System (EPLRS) and MicroLight® radios from 

the Australian Defence Materiel Organisation (DMO).

In 2010, NCS booked $254 million on the STARS program for the FAA and the DoD, $250 million for the LRAS3 program 

for the U.S. Army, $146 million on a command and control program for an international customer, $111 million for Horizontal

and the net change in EAC adjustments described above.

Backlog and Bookings—Backlog was $4,364 million, $4,160 million and $4,912 million at December 31, 2012, 2011 and 
2010, respectively. The increase in backlog of $204 million or 5% at December 31, 2012 compared to December 31, 2011 
was primarily due to bookings in excess of external sales, principally within our C4I product line, primarily on an international 
C4I program, partially offset by our Combat and Sensing Systems (CSS) product line, primarily on U.S. Army programs. The 
decrease in backlog of $752 million at December 31, 2011 compared to December 31, 2010 was primarily due to external 
sales in excess of bookings in 2011, principally within our Combat and Sensing Systems (CSS) and C4I product lines, primarily 
on U.S. Army programs.

Bookings increased by $457 million in 2012 compared to 2011. In 2012, NCS booked $650 million on an international C4I 
program, $187 million for the Navy Multiband Terminal (NMT) program for the U.S. Navy and $173 million on the Standard 
Terminal Automation Replacement System (STARS) program for the FAA.

Bookings decreased by $402 million in 2011 compared to 2010. In 2011, NCS booked $211 million for the production of 
Sentinel radars, spares and services for the U.S. Army and international customers, $146 million for the Long Range Advanced 
Scout Surveillance Systems (LRAS3) program for the U.S. Army, $71 million for the Thermal Weapon Sight (TWS) program 
for the U.S. Army and $64 million for Enhanced Position Location Reporting System (EPLRS) and MicroLight® radios from 
the Australian Defence Materiel Organisation (DMO).

In 2010, NCS booked $254 million on the STARS program for the FAA and the DoD, $250 million for the LRAS3 program 
for the U.S. Army, $146 million on a command and control program for an international customer, $111 million for Horizontal

SAS is a leader in the design and development of integrated systems and solutions for advanced missions, including traditional 
and non-traditional ISR, precision engagement, unmanned aerial operations, and space. Leveraging advanced concepts, state-
of-the-art technologies and mission systems knowledge, SAS provides electro-optical/infrared sensors, airborne radars for 
surveillance  and  fire  control  applications,  lasers,  precision  guidance  systems,  signals  intelligence  systems,  processors, 
electronic warfare systems and space-qualified systems for civil and military applications. Key customers include the U.S. 
Navy, Air Force and Army, as well as classified and international customers. 

Total Net Sales—Total net sales in 2012 were relatively consistent with 2011. Included in total net sales was $100 million of 
higher net sales due to increased volume on an international tactical airborne radar program primarily due to program schedule 
requirements, partially offset by lower net sales of $97 million primarily due to lower volume on certain sensor systems 
programs due to program schedule requirements. The remaining change in total net sales was primarily spread across numerous 
domestic programs with no individual or common significant driver.

The increase in total net sales of $425 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to $200 million of higher net sales 
related to RAST, which we acquired in the first quarter of 2011, $187 million of higher volume on ISR systems programs due 
to increased bookings over the last few years driven by customer demand for these capabilities, and $102 million from higher 
volume, as production work increased, as planned, on an international airborne tactical radar program awarded in the first 
half of 2010.

contracts. 

The increase in total operating expenses of $384 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to the activity described 

above. The increase in materials and subcontractor costs of $188 million was driven primarily by the timing of program 

requirements, principally on the ISR systems production programs and on the international airborne tactical radar program 

for the reasons described above in Total Net Sales. The increases in labor of $109 million and in other cost of sales and other 

operating expenses of $87 million compared to 2010 were primarily related to RAST.

Operating Income and Margin—The increase in operating income of $67 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily 

due to a net change in EAC adjustments of $51 million principally as a result of material and support efficiencies and contract 

modifications on international tactical airborne radar programs and certain classified programs. Included in mix and other 

performance in 2012 and 2011 was $22 million and $41 million, respectively, of acquisition-related costs for RAST. 

The increase in operating income of $41 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to higher volume of $43 million, 

principally driven by the activity on the programs described above in Total Net Sales, and net change in EAC adjustments of 

$16 million, driven primarily by the amount of EAC adjustments on an international airborne tactical radar program and on 

an advanced targeting program, partially offset by a change in contract mix and other performance of $18 million. Included 

in contract mix and other performance was $41 million of acquisition-related costs for RAST, partially offset by the 2011 

impact of the mix of contracts completing and new contract awards. Operating margin in 2011 remained relatively consistent 

with 2010.  

Backlog and Bookings—Backlog remained relatively consistent and was $6,031 million, $5,864 million and $5,981 million 

at December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Bookings increased by $713 million in 2012 compared to 2011. In 2012, SAS booked $617 million on radar contracts for 

international customers, $205 million to provide Multi-Spectral Targeting Systems (MTS) for unmanned aerial vehicles to 

the U.S. Air Force, $77 million for the production of radar warning receivers for the U.S. Navy, and $76 million for the 

production of the Multi-Platform Radar Technology Insertion Program (MP-RTIP) surveillance system for NATO. In addition 

to the bookings noted above, SAS booked $1,858 million on a number of classified contracts.

Bookings increased by $271 million in 2011 compared to 2010. In 2011, SAS booked $782 million on an international Active 

Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) program for F-15's to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, $291 million for the production 

of AESA radars for the U.S. Air Force, U.S. Navy and the Air National Guard, and $78 million on radar contracts for an 

international customer. SAS also booked $954 million on a number of classified contracts.

In 2010, SAS booked $1,106 million on a number of classified contracts, including $332 million on a major classified space 

program. In 2010, SAS also booked $618 million for the production of AESA radars for the U.S. Air Force, U.S. Navy, Air 

National Guard and international customers and $90 million for the production of Advanced Countermeasures Electronic 

System (ACES) for Egypt.

TS provides a full spectrum of technical and professional services to defense, federal, international and commercial customers 
worldwide. It specializes in training, logistics, engineering services and solutions, product and operational support services 
for the mission support, homeland security, space, civil aviation, counter proliferation and counterterrorism markets. Key 
customers include all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces, as well as the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), NASA, 
FAA, Department of State (DOS), Department of Energy (DOE), Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA), international 
governments and commercial entities.

Total Net Sales—The decrease in total net sales of $114 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was due to lower net sales of $121 
million on the NSF Polar contract, which was completed in the first quarter of 2012.

The decrease in total net sales of $119 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to $76 million of lower net sales 
on a DTRA program which completed significant efforts at the end of 2010 and $60 million of lower net sales on training 
programs, principally domestic training programs supporting the U.S. Army's Warfighter FOCUS activities due to a decrease 
in customer determined activity levels, partially offset by $45 million of higher net sales on various depot services operations 
programs, driven primarily by new contract awards.

Total Operating Expenses—The decrease in total operating expenses of $84 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily 
due to the activity on the programs and for the reasons described above in Total Net Sales. The $15 million increase in other 
cost of sales and other operating expenses was due primarily to an increase in administrative and selling, and bid and proposal, 
expenses.

The decrease in total operating expenses of $134 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was driven primarily by the activity on 

the DTRA and training programs for the reasons described above in Total Net Sales. The decrease in materials and subcontractor 

costs of $239 million was driven primarily by the decreased volume on these programs and the types of costs incurred in the 

respective periods based on the program requirements and program schedules. The decrease in materials and subcontractor 

costs was partially offset by higher labor of $102 million driven primarily by training programs supporting the U.S. Army's 

Warfighter FOCUS activities due to a change in customer determined activities. 

Operating Income and Margin—The decrease in operating income of $30 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily 

due  to  a  net  change  in  EAC  adjustments  of  $33  million  driven  primarily  by  operational  efficiencies  in  2011  on  various 

customized engineering and depot support programs. The decrease in operating margin in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily 

due to the net change in EAC adjustments.

The increase in operating income of $15 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to a change in contract mix and 

other performance of $13 million, primarily driven by cost efficiencies and higher award fees associated with various training 

programs, which had an impact of $8 million. Operating income also increased due to a net change in EAC adjustments of 

$11 million, primarily driven by cost efficiencies on a weapon production and modification program, which had a $7 million 

impact on operating income. The increases in operating income were partially offset by lower volume, which had a $9 million 

impact on operating income. The increase in operating margin in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to the change in 

net change in EAC adjustments and the contract mix and other performance described above.

Backlog and Bookings—Backlog remained relatively consistent and was $2,336 million, $2,586 million and $2,654 million 

at December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Bookings  decreased  by  $223  million  in  2012  compared  to  2011.  In  2012, TS  booked  $900  million  on  domestic  training 

programs and $394 million on foreign training programs in support of the Warfighter FOCUS activities and $246 million for 

work on the Air Traffic Control Optimum Training Solution (ATCOTS) contract to maintain and improve air traffic control 

(ATC) training and support the FAA in meeting the current and future ATC demands.

Bookings increased by $143 million in 2011 compared to 2010. In 2011, TS booked $994 million on domestic training programs 

and  $347  million  on  foreign  training  programs  in  support  of  the  Warfighter  FOCUS  activities,  $150  million  to  provide 

operational and logistics support to the NSF Office of Polar Programs, $120 million to design, develop and deliver technical 

training to a commercial customer, and $100 million with Australia for base operations, maintenance and support services at 

the Harold E. Holt Naval Communications station.

In 2010, TS booked $952 million on domestic training programs and $328 million on foreign training programs in support of 

the Warfighter FOCUS activities, $173 million to provide operational and logistics support to the NSF Office of Polar Programs 

and $88 million on the Security Equipment Integration Services (SEIS) contract for the Transportation Security Administration 

(TSA).

FAS/CAS Adjustment

The FAS/CAS Adjustment represents the difference between our pension and other postretirement benefit (PRB) expense or 

income under Financial Accounting Standards (FAS) requirements under GAAP and our pension and PRB expense under 

U.S. Government cost accounting standards (CAS). The results of each segment only include pension and PRB expense under 

CAS that we generally recover through the pricing of our products and services to the U.S. Government.

The components of the FAS/CAS Adjustment were as follows:

Total Net Sales—The decrease in total net sales of $114 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was due to lower net sales of $121 

million on the NSF Polar contract, which was completed in the first quarter of 2012.

The decrease in total net sales of $119 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to $76 million of lower net sales 

on a DTRA program which completed significant efforts at the end of 2010 and $60 million of lower net sales on training 

programs, principally domestic training programs supporting the U.S. Army's Warfighter FOCUS activities due to a decrease 

in customer determined activity levels, partially offset by $45 million of higher net sales on various depot services operations 

programs, driven primarily by new contract awards.

Total Operating Expenses—The decrease in total operating expenses of $84 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily 

due to the activity on the programs and for the reasons described above in Total Net Sales. The $15 million increase in other 

cost of sales and other operating expenses was due primarily to an increase in administrative and selling, and bid and proposal, 

expenses.

The decrease in total operating expenses of $134 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was driven primarily by the activity on 
the DTRA and training programs for the reasons described above in Total Net Sales. The decrease in materials and subcontractor 
costs of $239 million was driven primarily by the decreased volume on these programs and the types of costs incurred in the 
respective periods based on the program requirements and program schedules. The decrease in materials and subcontractor 
costs was partially offset by higher labor of $102 million driven primarily by training programs supporting the U.S. Army's 
Warfighter FOCUS activities due to a change in customer determined activities. 

Operating Income and Margin—The decrease in operating income of $30 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily 
due  to  a  net  change  in  EAC  adjustments  of  $33  million  driven  primarily  by  operational  efficiencies  in  2011  on  various 
customized engineering and depot support programs. The decrease in operating margin in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily 
due to the net change in EAC adjustments.

The increase in operating income of $15 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to a change in contract mix and 
other performance of $13 million, primarily driven by cost efficiencies and higher award fees associated with various training 
programs, which had an impact of $8 million. Operating income also increased due to a net change in EAC adjustments of 
$11 million, primarily driven by cost efficiencies on a weapon production and modification program, which had a $7 million 
impact on operating income. The increases in operating income were partially offset by lower volume, which had a $9 million 
impact on operating income. The increase in operating margin in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to the change in 
net change in EAC adjustments and the contract mix and other performance described above.

Backlog and Bookings—Backlog remained relatively consistent and was $2,336 million, $2,586 million and $2,654 million 
at December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Bookings  decreased  by  $223  million  in  2012  compared  to  2011.  In  2012, TS  booked  $900  million  on  domestic  training 
programs and $394 million on foreign training programs in support of the Warfighter FOCUS activities and $246 million for 
work on the Air Traffic Control Optimum Training Solution (ATCOTS) contract to maintain and improve air traffic control 
(ATC) training and support the FAA in meeting the current and future ATC demands.

Bookings increased by $143 million in 2011 compared to 2010. In 2011, TS booked $994 million on domestic training programs 
and  $347  million  on  foreign  training  programs  in  support  of  the  Warfighter  FOCUS  activities,  $150  million  to  provide 
operational and logistics support to the NSF Office of Polar Programs, $120 million to design, develop and deliver technical 
training to a commercial customer, and $100 million with Australia for base operations, maintenance and support services at 
the Harold E. Holt Naval Communications station.

In 2010, TS booked $952 million on domestic training programs and $328 million on foreign training programs in support of 
the Warfighter FOCUS activities, $173 million to provide operational and logistics support to the NSF Office of Polar Programs 
and $88 million on the Security Equipment Integration Services (SEIS) contract for the Transportation Security Administration 
(TSA).

FAS/CAS Adjustment
The FAS/CAS Adjustment represents the difference between our pension and other postretirement benefit (PRB) expense or 
income under Financial Accounting Standards (FAS) requirements under GAAP and our pension and PRB expense under 
U.S. Government cost accounting standards (CAS). The results of each segment only include pension and PRB expense under 
CAS that we generally recover through the pricing of our products and services to the U.S. Government.

As described above in Critical Accounting Estimates, a key driver of the difference between FAS and CAS expense (and 
consequently, the FAS/CAS Pension Adjustment) is the pattern of earnings and expense recognition for gains and losses that 
arise when our asset and liability experience differ from our assumptions under each set of requirements. Generally, such 
gains or losses are amortized under FAS over the average future working lifetime of the eligible employee population of 
approximately 10 years at December 31, 2012, and are currently amortized under CAS over a 15-year period. However, the 
CAS Harmonization described above will reduce this amortization period from 15 to 10 years beginning in 2013, as well as 
changing the liability measurement method. In accordance with both FAS and CAS, a “market-related value” of our plan 
assets is used to calculate the amount of deferred asset gains or losses to be amortized. The market-related value of assets is 
determined using actual asset gains or losses over a certain prior period (three years for FAS and five years for CAS, subject 
to certain limitations under CAS on the difference between the market-related value and actual market value of assets). Because 
of this difference in the number of years over which actual asset gains or losses are recognized and subsequently amortized, 
FAS expense generally tends to reflect recent gains or losses faster than CAS. Another driver of CAS expense (but not FAS 
expense) is the funded status of our pension plans under CAS. As noted above, CAS expense is only recognized for plans that 
are not fully funded; consequently, if plans become or cease to be fully funded under CAS due to our asset or liability experience, 
our CAS expense will change accordingly. 

The change in the FAS/CAS Pension Adjustment of $85 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was driven by a $105 million 
increase in our CAS expense, primarily due to the continued recognition of the 2008 negative asset returns. 

The change in the FAS/CAS Pension Adjustment of $110 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily driven by a $177 
million increase in our FAS expense. The $177 million increase in our FAS expense was driven primarily by the continued 
recognition of the 2008 losses in the market related value of assets, which had an impact of approximately $200 million. Our 
CAS expense increased $67 million as a result of actual versus expected asset and liability experience.

For 2013 compared to 2012, we currently expect our FAS expense will increase more than our CAS expense, which will 
increase the FAS/CAS Pension Adjustment. We expect the FAS/CAS Pension Adjustment to be approximately $289 million 
of expense driven by the lower discount rate environment and the difference in the recognition period for actual asset gains 
and losses under FAS and CAS, described above. This expected increase in FAS expense in excess of CAS expense is subject 
to our annual update, generally planned in the third quarter, of our actuarial estimate of the unfunded benefit obligation for 
both FAS and CAS for final 2012 census data. After 2013, the FAS/CAS Pension Adjustment is more difficult to predict 
because future FAS and CAS expense is based on a number of key assumptions for future periods. Differences between those 
assumptions and future actual results could significantly change both FAS and CAS expense in future periods. However, based 
solely on our current assumptions at December 31, 2012 and taking into account CAS Harmonization, which increases CAS 
expense in 2013 and beyond, we would expect after 2013 our FAS/CAS Pension Adjustment expense to decline and ultimately 
result in FAS/CAS Pension Adjustment income in 2015.

The FAS/CAS PRB Adjustment in 2012 was relatively consistent with 2011.

The change in the FAS/CAS PRB Adjustment of $40 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to the expiration 
of historical amortization under FAS of previous benefit modifications.

segment operating performance.

During the first quarter of 2012, we completed the disposal or abandonment of the remaining individual assets of our former 

turbo-prop commuter aircraft portfolio, RAAS, and all operations have ceased. As a result, we have reported the results of 

RAAS, which were formerly included in Corporate and Eliminations, as a discontinued operation for all periods presented.

Discontinued Operations

In pursuing our business strategies we have divested certain non-core businesses, investments and assets when appropriate. 

All residual activity relating to our previously-disposed businesses appears in discontinued operations.

During the first quarter of 2012, we completed the disposal or abandonment of the remaining individual assets of our former 

turbo-prop commuter aircraft portfolio, Raytheon Airline Aviation Services (RAAS), and all operations have ceased. As a 

result, we have reported the results of RAAS as a discontinued operation for all periods presented. The sale of the remaining 

operating assets in the year ended December 31, 2012, resulted in a gain of less than $1 million.

No interest expense relating to RAAS was allocated to discontinued operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 

2012 and 2011 because there was no debt specifically attributable to discontinued operations.

We retained certain assets and liabilities of our previously-disposed businesses. At December 31, 2012 and December 31, 

2011, we had $7 million and $19 million, respectively, of assets primarily related to our retained interest in general aviation 

finance  receivables  previously  sold  by  Raytheon  Aircraft  Company  (Raytheon  Aircraft).  At  December 31,  2012  and 

December 31,  2011,  we  had  $36  million  and  $44  million,  respectively,  of  liabilities  primarily  related  to  non-income  tax 

obligations, certain environmental and product liabilities, various contract obligations and aircraft lease obligations. We also 

retained certain pension assets and obligations which we include in our pension disclosures.

In the divestiture of Flight Options LLC (Flight Options), we agreed to indemnify Flight Options in the event they were 

assessed and paid excise taxes. In the fourth quarter of 2010, Internal Revenue Service (IRS) appeals proceedings failed to 

resolve the federal excise tax dispute, and as a result, the IRS assessed Flight Options for excise taxes. As a result, in the fourth 

quarter of 2010 we recorded a $39 million charge, net of federal tax benefit, in discontinued operations. In the first quarter of 

2011, Flight Options paid the assessment. On behalf of Flight Options, we intend to vigorously contest the matter through 

litigation and, if successful, we would be entitled to recover substantially all of the amounts paid. We also have certain tax

determined using actual asset gains or losses over a certain prior period (three years for FAS and five years for CAS, subject 

to certain limitations under CAS on the difference between the market-related value and actual market value of assets). Because 

of this difference in the number of years over which actual asset gains or losses are recognized and subsequently amortized, 

FAS expense generally tends to reflect recent gains or losses faster than CAS. Another driver of CAS expense (but not FAS 

expense) is the funded status of our pension plans under CAS. As noted above, CAS expense is only recognized for plans that 

are not fully funded; consequently, if plans become or cease to be fully funded under CAS due to our asset or liability experience, 

our CAS expense will change accordingly. 

The change in the FAS/CAS Pension Adjustment of $85 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was driven by a $105 million 

increase in our CAS expense, primarily due to the continued recognition of the 2008 negative asset returns. 

The change in the FAS/CAS Pension Adjustment of $110 million in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily driven by a $177 

million increase in our FAS expense. The $177 million increase in our FAS expense was driven primarily by the continued 

recognition of the 2008 losses in the market related value of assets, which had an impact of approximately $200 million. Our 

CAS expense increased $67 million as a result of actual versus expected asset and liability experience.

For 2013 compared to 2012, we currently expect our FAS expense will increase more than our CAS expense, which will 

increase the FAS/CAS Pension Adjustment. We expect the FAS/CAS Pension Adjustment to be approximately $289 million 

of expense driven by the lower discount rate environment and the difference in the recognition period for actual asset gains 

and losses under FAS and CAS, described above. This expected increase in FAS expense in excess of CAS expense is subject 

to our annual update, generally planned in the third quarter, of our actuarial estimate of the unfunded benefit obligation for

solely on our current assumptions at December 31, 2012 and taking into account CAS Harmonization, which increases CAS 

expense in 2013 and beyond, we would expect after 2013 our FAS/CAS Pension Adjustment expense to decline and ultimately 

result in FAS/CAS Pension Adjustment income in 2015.

As further described in "Note 15: Income Taxes" within Item 8 of this Form 10-K, during the year ended December 31, 2010, 
we recorded a $281 million reduction in our unrecognized tax benefits, which included a decrease of $89 million in tax expense 
from discontinued operations, including interest, primarily related to our previous disposition of Raytheon Engineers and 
Constructors (RE&C).

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY

Overview
We pursue a capital deployment strategy that balances funding for growing our business, including working capital, capital 
expenditures, acquisitions and research and development; prudently managing our balance sheet, including debt repayments 
and pension contributions; and returning cash to our stockholders, including dividend payments and share repurchases, as 
outlined below. Our need for, cost of and access to funds are dependent on future operating results, as well as other external 
conditions. We currently expect that cash and cash equivalents, available-for-sale securities, cash flow from operations and 
other  available financing resources will be sufficient to meet  anticipated operating, capital expenditure, investment, debt 
service and other financing requirements during the next twelve months and for the foreseeable future.

In addition, the following table highlights selected measures of our liquidity and capital resources at December 31, 2012 and 
2011:

Tax Payments—In 2012, we received federal tax refunds totaling $79 million, including the refund relating to the 2012 Tax 
Settlement, and $41 million of foreign tax refunds, and made $959 million in federal and foreign tax payments and $77 million 
in net state tax payments. In 2011, we received federal tax refunds totaling $128 million, including the refund relating to the 
2011 Tax Settlement, and made $553 million in federal and net foreign tax payments and $12 million in net state tax payments. 
In 2010, we received federal tax refunds totaling $96 million and made $433 million in federal and net foreign tax payments 
and $54 million in net state tax payments. Federal and foreign tax payments for 2013 are expected to approximate $655 million.

Pension Plan Contributions—We may make both required and discretionary contributions to our pension plans. Required 
contributions are primarily determined in accordance with the PPA, which amended the ERISA rules and are affected by the 
actual return on plan assets and plan funded status. The funding requirements under the PPA require us to fully fund our 
pension plans over a rolling seven-year period as determined annually based upon the PPA calculated funded status at the 
beginning of the year. The PPA funded status is based on actual asset performance, averaged over three years and PPA discount 
rates, which are based on a 24-month average of high quality corporate bond rates, as published by the IRS. In July 2012, the 
Surface Transportation Extension act, which is also referred to as the Moving ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (STE 
Act), was passed by Congress and signed by the President. The STE Act includes a provision for temporary pension funding 
relief from the current historically low interest rate environment. The provision adjusts the 24-month average high quality 
bond rates used to determine the PPA funded status so that they are within a floor and cap, or "corridor," based on the 25-year 
average of corporate bond rates. Beginning in 2012, interest rates must be between 90% and 110% of the 25-year rate, with 
a 5% increase in this corridor for each year from 2013–2016, resulting in a gradual phase-out of the provision. As a result of 

the STE Act, the approximate PPA funding status for most of our plan increased from 80-90% funded to 90-100% funded. 

The provision reduced our cash funding requirements in 2012 by approximately $450 million before an estimated tax impact 

of $275 million ($175 million after-tax). Funding requirements for future periods will be based on actual asset performance 

and future interest rates. Pension assets and liabilities are valued annually at December 31 for purposes of determining funded 

status and future year for FAS expense, CAS expense and cash funding requirements. 

The STE Act does not change the calculation of our FAS expense. However, reductions in our required contributions could 

increase our FAS expense in future years by the amount of expected return that would have applied to the contributions. Our 

$500 million discretionary pension contribution in 2012 generally offsets the impact to our future year FAS expense that would 

have resulted from the reduced 2012 funding requirements under the STE Act. In addition, based upon current interest rate 

projections, the STE Act could have a modest impact on our CAS expense in 2014, when CAS Harmonization incorporates 

the PPA interest rate into CAS calculations. 

The STE Act also increases the insurance premiums that we are required to pay to the Pension Benefit Guarantee Corporation 

(PBGC). However, we do not expect these increases to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations 

We made the following required and discretionary contributions to our pension plans during the years ended December 31:  

or liquidity.

The decrease in required contributions of $357 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily due to the passage of the STE 

Act as discussed above. Required contributions in 2011 were relatively consistent with 2010. With the passage of the STE 

Act discussed above, we now expect to make required contributions to our pension and other postretirement benefit plans of 

approximately $800 million in 2013. The gradual phase out of the STE Act provisions is expected to result in an increase in 

our required pension contributions in 2014 and beyond to levels comparable to 2010 and 2011 unless interest rates significantly 

increase. We periodically evaluate whether to make discretionary contributions. Due to the differences in requirements and 

calculation methodologies, our FAS pension expense or income is not indicative of the funding requirement or amount of 

government recovery.

Other postretirement benefit payments were $19 million, $18 million and $32 million in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Interest Payments—We made interest payments on our outstanding debt of $198 million, $167 million and $134 million in 

2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase in interest payments in 2012 compared to 2011 was principally due to the 

issuance of $1.0 billion of fixed rate long-term debt in the fourth quarter of 2011. The increase in interest payments in 2011 

compared to 2010 was primarily due to interest payments on the 1.625% notes, 3.125% notes, and 4.875% notes issued in the 

fourth quarter of 2010.

As further described in "Note 15: Income Taxes" within Item 8 of this Form 10-K, during the year ended December 31, 2010, 

we recorded a $281 million reduction in our unrecognized tax benefits, which included a decrease of $89 million in tax expense 

from discontinued operations, including interest, primarily related to our previous disposition of Raytheon Engineers and 

obligations relating to disposed businesses.

Constructors (RE&C).

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY

Overview

We pursue a capital deployment strategy that balances funding for growing our business, including working capital, capital 

expenditures, acquisitions and research and development; prudently managing our balance sheet, including debt repayments 

and pension contributions; and returning cash to our stockholders, including dividend payments and share repurchases, as 

outlined below. Our need for, cost of and access to funds are dependent on future operating results, as well as other external 

conditions. We currently expect that cash and cash equivalents, available-for-sale securities, cash flow from operations and 

other available financing resources will be sufficient to meet  anticipated operating, capital expenditure, investment, debt 

service and other financing requirements during the next twelve months and for the foreseeable future.

In addition, the following table highlights selected measures of our liquidity and capital resources at December 31, 2012 and 

2011:

Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities in 2012 remained relatively consistent with 2011. Net cash provided by 

(used in) operating activities in 2011 remained relatively consistent with 2010. 

Tax Payments—In 2012, we received federal tax refunds totaling $79 million, including the refund relating to the 2012 Tax 

Settlement, and $41 million of foreign tax refunds, and made $959 million in federal and foreign tax payments and $77 million 

in net state tax payments. In 2011, we received federal tax refunds totaling $128 million, including the refund relating to the 

2011 Tax Settlement, and made $553 million in federal and net foreign tax payments and $12 million in net state tax payments. 

In 2010, we received federal tax refunds totaling $96 million and made $433 million in federal and net foreign tax payments 

and $54 million in net state tax payments. Federal and foreign tax payments for 2013 are expected to approximate $655 million.

Pension Plan Contributions—We may make both required and discretionary contributions to our pension plans. Required 

contributions are primarily determined in accordance with the PPA, which amended the ERISA rules and are affected by the 

actual return on plan assets and plan funded status. The funding requirements under the PPA require us to fully fund our 

pension plans over a rolling seven-year period as determined annually based upon the PPA calculated funded status at the 

beginning of the year. The PPA funded status is based on actual asset performance, averaged over three years and PPA discount 

rates, which are based on a 24-month average of high quality corporate bond rates, as published by the IRS. In July 2012, the 

Surface Transportation Extension act, which is also referred to as the Moving ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (STE 

Act), was passed by Congress and signed by the President. The STE Act includes a provision for temporary pension funding 

relief from the current historically low interest rate environment. The provision adjusts the 24-month average high quality 

bond rates used to determine the PPA funded status so that they are within a floor and cap, or "corridor," based on the 25-year 

average of corporate bond rates. Beginning in 2012, interest rates must be between 90% and 110% of the 25-year rate, with 

a 5% increase in this corridor for each year from 2013–2016, resulting in a gradual phase-out of the provision. As a result of 

the STE Act, the approximate PPA funding status for most of our plan increased from 80-90% funded to 90-100% funded. 
The provision reduced our cash funding requirements in 2012 by approximately $450 million before an estimated tax impact 
of $275 million ($175 million after-tax). Funding requirements for future periods will be based on actual asset performance 
and future interest rates. Pension assets and liabilities are valued annually at December 31 for purposes of determining funded 
status and future year for FAS expense, CAS expense and cash funding requirements. 

The STE Act does not change the calculation of our FAS expense. However, reductions in our required contributions could 
increase our FAS expense in future years by the amount of expected return that would have applied to the contributions. Our 
$500 million discretionary pension contribution in 2012 generally offsets the impact to our future year FAS expense that would 
have resulted from the reduced 2012 funding requirements under the STE Act. In addition, based upon current interest rate 
projections, the STE Act could have a modest impact on our CAS expense in 2014, when CAS Harmonization incorporates 
the PPA interest rate into CAS calculations. 

The STE Act also increases the insurance premiums that we are required to pay to the Pension Benefit Guarantee Corporation 
(PBGC). However, we do not expect these increases to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations 
or liquidity.

We made the following required and discretionary contributions to our pension plans during the years ended December 31:

The decrease in required contributions of $357 million in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily due to the passage of the STE 
Act as discussed above. Required contributions in 2011 were relatively consistent with 2010. With the passage of the STE 
Act discussed above, we now expect to make required contributions to our pension and other postretirement benefit plans of 
approximately $800 million in 2013. The gradual phase out of the STE Act provisions is expected to result in an increase in 
our required pension contributions in 2014 and beyond to levels comparable to 2010 and 2011 unless interest rates significantly 
increase. We periodically evaluate whether to make discretionary contributions. Due to the differences in requirements and 
calculation methodologies, our FAS pension expense or income is not indicative of the funding requirement or amount of 
government recovery.

Other postretirement benefit payments were $19 million, $18 million and $32 million in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Interest Payments—We made interest payments on our outstanding debt of $198 million, $167 million and $134 million in 
2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase in interest payments in 2012 compared to 2011 was principally due to the 
issuance of $1.0 billion of fixed rate long-term debt in the fourth quarter of 2011. The increase in interest payments in 2011 
compared to 2010 was primarily due to interest payments on the 1.625% notes, 3.125% notes, and 4.875% notes issued in the 
fourth quarter of 2010.

We expect our property, plant and equipment and capitalized internal use software expenditures to be approximately $360 
million and $70 million, respectively, in 2013, consistent with the anticipated needs of our business and for specific investments 
including program capital assets and facility improvements.

Short-term investments activity—We invest in marketable securities in accordance with our short-term investment policy. 
These marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale and are recorded at fair value as short-term investments in our 
consolidated balance sheets. During 2012, we made purchases of short-term investments, comprised of highly rated bank 
certificates of deposit, of $1,505 million, while sales of short-term investments amounted to $150 million and maturities of 
short-term investments amounted to $505 million. As of December 31, 2012, our short-term investments had an average 
maturity of approximately six months.

Acquisitions and Divestitures—In pursuing our business strategies, we acquire and invest in certain businesses that meet 
strategic and financial criteria, and divest of certain non-core businesses, investments and assets when appropriate. Payments

In December 2012, we acquired the Government Solutions business of SafeNet, Inc., subsequently renamed Raytheon Secure 
Information Systems, LLC (RSIS) for approximately $280 million in cash, net of cash acquired and exclusive of retention 
payments. RSIS will be integrated into our Network Centric Systems (NCS) business, within the Integrated Communication 
Systems product line as the Secure Information Systems product area. RSIS provides advanced encryption capabilities needed 
by government and industry customers to protect classified data. In connection with this transaction we have preliminarily 
recorded $197 million of goodwill related to expected synergies from combining operations and the value of the existing 
workforce, and $75 million of intangible assets, primarily related to technology with an estimated weighted-average life of 
eight years. We expect to complete the purchase price allocation process in the first quarter of 2013 after the purchase price 
adjustment process and our final reviews are completed. 

Additionally, in 2012 we acquired Teligy, Inc., subsequently renamed Raytheon Teligy, Inc., and an Australian company, 
Poseidon Scientific Instruments Pty Ltd., for an aggregate of $22 million in cash, net of cash acquired. Raytheon Teligy, Inc. 
further extends our cybersecurity offerings in wireless communications at Intelligence and Information Systems (IIS). The 
Poseidon Scientific Instruments Pty Ltd. acquisition is part of our strategy to extend and enhance our Integrated Defense 
Systems (IDS) offerings. In connection with these acquisitions we recorded $15 million of goodwill, primarily related to 
expected synergies from combining operations, and $5 million of intangible assets, primarily related to customer relationships 
and technology with a weighted-average life of six years.

In  2011,  we  acquired Applied  Signal Technology,  Inc.,  subsequently  renamed Raytheon Applied  Signal Technology,  Inc. 
(RAST) for $500 million in cash, net of $25 million of cash and cash equivalents acquired, and exclusive of retention and 
management incentive payments. RAST provides advanced intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) solutions to 
enhance global security. The acquisition is part of our strategy to extend and enhance our Space and Airborne Systems (SAS) 
offerings  related  to  certain  classified  and  Department  of  Defense  markets.  Pro  forma  financial  information  has  not  been 
provided for this acquisition since it is not material. In connection with this acquisition, we recorded  $387 million of goodwill, 
all of which was allocated to our SAS segment, primarily related to expected synergies from combining operations and the 
value of RAST's assembled workforce, and $89 million  in intangible assets, primarily related to contractual relationships, 
license agreements and trade names with a weighted-average life of  seven years.  

Additionally, in 2011 we acquired Henggeler Computer Consultants Inc., Pikewerks Corporation and substantially all of the 
assets of Ktech Corporation for an aggregate of $145 million in cash, net of cash acquired. The Henggeler Computer Consultants 

Inc. and Pikewerks Corporation acquisitions enhance our cybersecurity and information assurance capabilities at Intelligence 

and Information Systems (IIS). The Ktech Corporation acquisition is part of our strategy to extend and enhance our Missile 

Systems (MS) offerings. In connection with these acquisitions, we recorded $112 million of goodwill, primarily related to 

expected synergies from combining operations and the value of the existing workforce, and $26 million of intangible assets, 

primarily related to customer relationships, trade names and technology with an initial estimated weighted-average life of 

seven years.

We have used cash provided by operating activities, and proceeds from the issuance of new debt in 2012 and 2011 as our 

primary source for the repayment of debt, payment of dividends, pension contributions and the repurchase of our common 

stock. The change of $552 million in net cash provided by (used in) financing activities in 2012 compared to 2011 was primarily 

due to the repayments of long-term debt in 2012 offset by the change in the amount of stock repurchased described below. 

The change of $283 million in net cash provided by (used in) financing activities in 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily 

due to lower net proceeds from debt issuances and repayments in 2011 compared to 2010, and the lower level of warrants 

exercised in 2011 compared to 2010. 

Debt—In the fourth quarter of 2012, we received proceeds of $1,092 million for the issuance of $1.1 billion fixed rate long-

term debt and exercised our call rights to repurchase, at prices based on fixed spreads to U.S. Treasuries, $970 million of our 

long-term debt due in 2014 and 2015 at a loss of $29 million pretax, $19 million after-tax, which is included in other expense

CAPITAL RESOURCES
Total debt was $4.7 billion at December 31, 2012, $4.6 billion at December 31, 2011 and $3.6 billion at December 31, 2010. 
Our outstanding debt bears contractual interest at fixed interest rates ranging from 2.5% to 7.2% and matures at various dates 
from 2018 through 2041.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Short-term Investments—Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments were $4.0 
billion at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011. We may invest in U.S. Treasuries; AAA/Aaa rated money market funds; 
certificates of deposit, time deposits and commercial paper of banks with a minimum long-term debt rating of A or A2 and 
minimum short-term debt rating of A-1 and P-1, and commercial paper of corporations with a minimum long-term debt rating 
of A+ or A1 and minimum short-term debt rating of A-1 and P-1. Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments 
balances  held  at  our  foreign  subsidiaries  were  approximately  $725  million  and  $450  million  at  December 31,  2012  and 
December 31, 2011, respectively. Earnings from our foreign subsidiaries are currently deemed to be indefinitely reinvested. 
We do not expect such reinvestment to affect our liquidity and capital resources, and we continuously evaluate our liquidity 
needs and ability to meet global cash requirements as a part of our overall capital deployment strategy. Factors that affect our 
global capital deployment strategy include anticipated cash flows, the ability to repatriate cash in a tax efficient manner, 
funding requirements for operations and investment activities, acquisitions and divestitures, and capital market conditions.

Credit Facilities—In December 2011, we entered into a $1.4 billion revolving credit facility maturing in 2016, replacing the 
previous $500 million and $1.0 billion credit facilities, which were both scheduled to mature in November 2012. 

Under the $1.4 billion credit facility, we can borrow, issue letters of credit and backstop commercial paper. Borrowings under 
this facility bear interest at various rate options, including LIBOR plus a margin based on our credit ratings. Based on our 
credit ratings at December 31, 2012, borrowings would generally bear interest at LIBOR plus 90 basis points. The credit 
facility is comprised of commitments from approximately 25 separate highly rated lenders, each committing no more than 
10% of the facility. As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, there were no borrowings outstanding under this credit 
facility. However, we had $2 million and $3 million of outstanding letters of credit at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 
2011, respectively, which effectively reduced our borrowing capacity under this credit facility by those same amounts. 

Under the $1.4 billion credit facility we must comply with certain covenants, including a ratio of total debt to total capitalization 
of no more than 60%. We were in compliance with the credit facility covenants during 2012 and 2011. Our ratio of total debt 
to total capitalization, as those terms are defined in the credit facility, was 36.6% at December 31, 2012. We are providing 
this ratio as this metric is used by our lenders to monitor our leverage and is also a threshold that limits our ability to utilize 
this facility. We were also required to comply with certain covenants in connection with our previous credit facilities and were 
in compliance with such covenants in 2011. 

Credit Ratings—Three major corporate debt rating organizations, Fitch Ratings (Fitch), Moody’s Investors Service (Moody’s) 

and Standard & Poor’s (S&P), assign ratings to our short-term and long-term debt. The following chart reflects the current 

ratings assigned by each of these agencies as of December 31, 2012 to our short and long-term senior unsecured debt:

Purchase obligations in the table above represent enforceable and legally binding agreements with suppliers to purchase goods 

or services. We enter into contracts with customers, primarily the U.S. Government, which entitle us to full recourse for costs 

incurred,  including  purchase  obligations,  in  the  event  the  contract  is  terminated  by  the  customer  for  convenience. These 

purchase obligations are  included above  notwithstanding  the amount for  which we  are entitled to full recourse  from our 

customers. The table above does not include required pension and other postretirement benefit contributions. We expect to 

make required pension and other postretirement benefit contributions of approximately $800 million in 2013, exclusive of 

any U.S. Government recovery. Amounts beyond 2012 for required pension and other postretirement benefit contributions 

depend upon actuarial assumptions, actual plan asset performance and other factors described under pension costs in Critical 

Accounting  Estimates  beginning  on  page  34.  However,  based  solely  on  our  current  assumptions,  we  expect  our  funding 

requirements to be approximately $1 billion in 2014, exclusive of any U.S. Government recovery, and slowly decreasing 

thereafter.

Interest payments include interest on debt that is redeemable at our option.

As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits for uncertain tax positions 

and the accrual for the related interest, net of the federal benefit, was $141 million and $178 million, respectively, and was 

included in accrued retiree benefits and other long-term liabilities. These amounts were not included in the table above because 

we are unable to make a reasonably reliable estimate of when a cash settlement, if any, will occur with a tax authority as the 

timing of examinations and ultimate resolutions of those examinations is uncertain.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

At December 31, 2012, we had no significant off-balance sheet arrangements other than operating leases and guarantees to 

third parties on behalf of our affiliates as described below in Commitments and Contingencies. Such arrangements are not 

material to our overall liquidity or capital resources, market risk support or credit risk support as described below.

certificates of deposit, time deposits and commercial paper of banks with a minimum long-term debt rating of A or A2 and 

minimum short-term debt rating of A-1 and P-1, and commercial paper of corporations with a minimum long-term debt rating

balances  held  at  our  foreign  subsidiaries  were  approximately  $725  million  and  $450  million  at  December 31,  2012  and 

December 31, 2011, respectively. Earnings from our foreign subsidiaries are currently deemed to be indefinitely reinvested.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Environmental Matters—We are involved in various stages of investigation and cleanup related to remediation of various 
environmental sites. Our estimate of the liability of total environmental remediation costs includes the use of a discount rate 
and takes into account that a portion of these costs is eligible for future recovery through the pricing of our products and 
services to the U.S. Government. We consider such recovery probable based on government contracting regulations and our 
long history of receiving reimbursement for such costs, and accordingly have recorded the estimated future recovery of these 
costs from the U.S. Government within contracts in process. Our estimates regarding remediation costs to be incurred were 
as follows at December 31:

We also lease certain government-owned properties and are generally not liable for remediation of preexisting environmental 
contamination at these sites; as a result, we generally do not provide for these costs in our consolidated financial statements.  

Due  to  the  complexity  of  environmental  laws  and  regulations,  the  varying  costs  and  effectiveness  of  alternative  cleanup 
methods and technologies, the uncertainty of insurance coverage and the unresolved extent of our responsibility, it is difficult 
to determine the ultimate outcome of environmental matters; however, we do not expect any additional liability to have a 
material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

credit and surety bonds to meet various bid, performance, warranty, retention and advance payment obligations of us or our 
affiliates. These instruments expire on various dates through 2023. Additional guarantees of project performance for which 
there is no stated value also remain outstanding. The stated values outstanding consisted of the following at December 31:

Included in guarantees and letters of credit described above were $108 million and $225 million, respectively, at December 31, 
2012, and $109 million and $240 million, respectively, at December 31, 2011, related to our Thales-Raytheon Systems Co. 
Ltd. (TRS) joint venture. We provide these guarantees and letters of credit to TRS and other affiliates to assist these entities 
in obtaining financing on more favorable terms, making bids on contracts and performing their contractual obligations. While 
we expect these entities to satisfy their loans, and meet their project performance and other contractual obligations, their failure 
to do so may result in a future obligation to us. We periodically evaluate the risk of TRS and other affiliates failing to satisfy 
their loans, project performance and meet other contractual obligations described above. At December 31, 2012, we believe 
the risk that TRS and other affiliates will not be able to perform or meet their obligations is minimal for the foreseeable future 
based on their current financial condition. All obligations were current at December 31, 2012. At December 31, 2012 and 
December 31, 2011, we had an estimated liability of $4 million and $6 million, respectively, related to these guarantees and 
letters of credit. 

In 1997, we provided a first loss guarantee of $133 million on $1.3 billion of U.S. Export-Import Bank loans (maturing in 

2015) to the Brazilian Government related to System for the Vigilance of the Amazon (SIVAM) program being performed by 

Network Centric Systems. Loan repayments by the Brazilian Government were current at December 31, 2012.

We have entered into industrial cooperation agreements, sometimes referred to as offset agreements, as a condition to obtaining 

orders for our products and services from certain customers in foreign countries. At December 31, 2012, the aggregate amount 

of our offset agreements had an outstanding notional value of approximately $5 billion. To the extent we have entered into 

purchase obligations that satisfy our offset agreements, those amounts are included in the Contractual Obligations table on 

page 71. These agreements are designed to return economic value to the foreign country by requiring the contractor to engage 

in activities supporting local defense or commercial industries, promoting a balance of trade, developing in-country technology 

capabilities, or addressing other local development priorities. Offset agreements may be satisfied through activities that do 

not require a direct cash payment, including transferring technology, providing manufacturing, training and other consulting 

support to in-country projects, and the purchase by third parties (e.g., our vendors) of supplies from in-country vendors. These 

agreements may also be satisfied through our use of cash for activities such as subcontracting with local partners, purchasing 

supplies from in-country vendors, providing financial support for in-country projects, and making investments in local ventures. 

Such activities may also vary country-by-country depending upon requirements as dictated by their governments. We typically 

do not commit to offset agreements until orders for our products or services are definitive. The amounts ultimately applied 

against our offset agreements are based on negotiations with the customers and typically require cash outlays that represent 

only a fraction of the notional value in the offset agreements. Offset programs usually extend over several or more years and 

may provide for penalties in the event we fail to perform in accordance with offset requirements. We have historically not 

been required to pay any such penalties.

As a government contractor, we are subject to many levels of audit and investigation by the U.S. Government relating to our 

contract  performance  and  compliance  with  applicable  rules  and  regulations. Agencies  that  oversee  contract  performance 

include:  the  Defense  Contract Audit Agency,  the  Defense  Contract  Management Agency,  the  Inspector  General  of  the 

Department of Defense and other departments and agencies, the Government Accountability Office, the Department of Justice 

and Congressional Committees. From time to time, these and other agencies investigate or conduct audits to determine whether 

our operations are being conducted in accordance with applicable requirements. Such investigations and audits could result 

in administrative, civil or criminal liabilities, including repayments, fines or penalties being imposed upon us, the suspension 

of government export licenses or the suspension or debarment from future U.S. Government contracting. U.S. Government 

investigations often take years to complete and many result in no adverse action against us. Our final allowable incurred costs 

for each year are also subject to audit and have from time to time resulted in disputes between us and the U.S. Government 

with litigation resulting at the Court of Federal Claims (COFC) or the Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals (ASBCA) 

or their related courts of appeals. In addition, the Department of Justice has, from time to time, convened grand juries to 

investigate possible irregularities by us. We also provide products and services to customers outside of the U.S. and those 

sales are subject to local government laws, regulations, and procurement policies and practices. Our compliance with such 

local government regulations or any applicable U.S. Government regulations (e.g., the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the 

International Traffic in Arms Regulations) may also be investigated or audited. Other than as specifically disclosed herein, 

we do not expect these audits, investigations or disputes to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations 

or liquidity, either individually or in the aggregate.    

We have completed a self-initiated internal review of certain of our international operations, focusing on compliance with the 

Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. In the course of the review, we identified possible areas of concern involving certain practices 

related to operations in a foreign jurisdiction where we do business. We voluntarily disclosed and shared the results of our 

review with the SEC and the DoJ. The SEC staff and the DoJ have completed their review of this matter without recommending 

enforcement action.

On July 22, 2010, RSL was notified by the UKBA that it had been terminated for cause on a program. The termination notice 

included  allegations  that  RSL  had  failed  to  perform  on  certain  key  milestones  and  other  matters  in  addition  to  claiming 

entitlement to recovery of certain losses incurred and previous payments made to RSL. We believe that RSL performed well 

and delivered substantial capabilities to the UKBA under the program, which has been operating successfully and providing 

actionable information since live operations began in May 2009. As a result of the termination notice, we adjusted our estimated 

amount of revenue and costs under the program in the second quarter of 2010. The impact of the UKBA Program Adjustment 

reduced  IIS'  total  net  sales  and  operating  income  by  $316  million  and  $395  million,  respectively,  for  the  year  ended 

December 31, 2010. The UKBA Program Adjustment also reduced total company diluted earnings per share from continuing 

operations by $0.75 in the year ended December 31, 2010. On July 29, 2010, RSL filed a dispute notice on the grounds that

purchase obligations that satisfy our offset agreements, those amounts are included in the Contractual Obligations table on 
page 71. These agreements are designed to return economic value to the foreign country by requiring the contractor to engage 
in activities supporting local defense or commercial industries, promoting a balance of trade, developing in-country technology 
capabilities, or addressing other local development priorities. Offset agreements may be satisfied through activities that do 
not require a direct cash payment, including transferring technology, providing manufacturing, training and other consulting 
support to in-country projects, and the purchase by third parties (e.g., our vendors) of supplies from in-country vendors. These 
agreements may also be satisfied through our use of cash for activities such as subcontracting with local partners, purchasing 
supplies from in-country vendors, providing financial support for in-country projects, and making investments in local ventures. 
Such activities may also vary country-by-country depending upon requirements as dictated by their governments. We typically 
do not commit to offset agreements until orders for our products or services are definitive. The amounts ultimately applied 
against our offset agreements are based on negotiations with the customers and typically require cash outlays that represent 
only a fraction of the notional value in the offset agreements. Offset programs usually extend over several or more years and 
may provide for penalties in the event we fail to perform in accordance with offset requirements. We have historically not 
been required to pay any such penalties.

As a government contractor, we are subject to many levels of audit and investigation by the U.S. Government relating to our 
contract  performance  and  compliance  with  applicable  rules  and  regulations. Agencies  that  oversee  contract  performance 
include:  the  Defense  Contract Audit Agency,  the  Defense  Contract  Management Agency,  the  Inspector  General  of  the 
Department of Defense and other departments and agencies, the Government Accountability Office, the Department of Justice 
and Congressional Committees. From time to time, these and other agencies investigate or conduct audits to determine whether 
our operations are being conducted in accordance with applicable requirements. Such investigations and audits could result 
in administrative, civil or criminal liabilities, including repayments, fines or penalties being imposed upon us, the suspension 
of government export licenses or the suspension or debarment from future U.S. Government contracting. U.S. Government 
investigations often take years to complete and many result in no adverse action against us. Our final allowable incurred costs 
for each year are also subject to audit and have from time to time resulted in disputes between us and the U.S. Government 
with litigation resulting at the Court of Federal Claims (COFC) or the Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals (ASBCA) 
or their related courts of appeals. In addition, the Department of Justice has, from time to time, convened grand juries to 
investigate possible irregularities by us. We also provide products and services to customers outside of the U.S. and those 
sales are subject to local government laws, regulations, and procurement policies and practices. Our compliance with such 
local government regulations or any applicable U.S. Government regulations (e.g., the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the 
International Traffic in Arms Regulations) may also be investigated or audited. Other than as specifically disclosed herein, 
we do not expect these audits, investigations or disputes to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations 
or liquidity, either individually or in the aggregate.    

We have completed a self-initiated internal review of certain of our international operations, focusing on compliance with the 
Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. In the course of the review, we identified possible areas of concern involving certain practices 
related to operations in a foreign jurisdiction where we do business. We voluntarily disclosed and shared the results of our 
review with the SEC and the DoJ. The SEC staff and the DoJ have completed their review of this matter without recommending 
enforcement action.

On July 22, 2010, RSL was notified by the UKBA that it had been terminated for cause on a program. The termination notice 
included  allegations  that  RSL  had  failed  to  perform  on  certain  key  milestones  and  other  matters  in  addition  to  claiming 
entitlement to recovery of certain losses incurred and previous payments made to RSL. We believe that RSL performed well 
and delivered substantial capabilities to the UKBA under the program, which has been operating successfully and providing 
actionable information since live operations began in May 2009. As a result of the termination notice, we adjusted our estimated 
amount of revenue and costs under the program in the second quarter of 2010. The impact of the UKBA Program Adjustment 
reduced  IIS'  total  net  sales  and  operating  income  by  $316  million  and  $395  million,  respectively,  for  the  year  ended 
December 31, 2010. The UKBA Program Adjustment also reduced total company diluted earnings per share from continuing 
operations by $0.75 in the year ended December 31, 2010. On July 29, 2010, RSL filed a dispute notice on the grounds that

results of the COFDs to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity. 

In addition, various other claims and legal proceedings generally incidental to the normal course of business are pending or 

threatened against us. We do not expect any additional liability from these proceedings to have a material adverse effect on 

our financial position, results of operations or liquidity. In connection with certain of our legal matters, we may be entitled to 

insurance recovery for qualified legal costs. We do not expect any insurance recovery to have a material impact on the financial 

exposure that could result from these matters.

the termination by the UKBA was not valid. On August 18, 2010, the UKBA initiated arbitration proceedings on this issue. 
On March 22, 2011, the UKBA gave notice that it had presented a demand to draw on the approximately $80 million of letters 
of credit provided by RSL upon the signing of the contract with the UKBA in 2007. On March 23, 2011, the UKBA submitted 
a detailed claim in the arbitration of approximately £350 million (approximately $565 million based on foreign exchange rates 
as of December 31, 2012) for damages and clawback of previous payments, plus interest and arbitration costs, excluding any 
credit for capability delivered or draw on the letters of credit. The UKBA also asserted that additional amounts may be detailed 
in the claim in the future if estimates of its damages change, and for continuing post-termination losses and any re-procurement 
costs, which have not been quantified. At RSL's request, on March 29, 2011, the Arbitration Tribunal issued an interim order 
restraining the UKBA from drawing down on the letters of credit pending a hearing on the issue. Following the hearing, the 
Tribunal lifted the restraint on the basis that, at this early stage of the proceedings, the Tribunal had not heard the evidence 
needed to decide the merits of whether the contractual conditions for a drawdown had been established. The Tribunal also 
concluded that any decision on the UKBA's right to call on the letters of credit is inextricably intertwined with the ultimate 
decision on the merits in the arbitration. The Tribunal also preserved RSL's right to claim damages should RSL later establish 
that the drawdown was not valid. As a result, on April 6, 2011, the UKBA drew the $80 million on the letters of credit.

As a result of the Tribunal's decision that the letters of credit are inextricably intertwined with the ultimate decision on the 
merits in the arbitration, we were no longer able to evaluate, independently from the overall claim, the probability of recovery 
of any amounts drawn on the letters of credit. We therefore recorded $80 million of costs related to the UKBA drawdown 
(UKBA LOC Adjustment), which is included in the operating expenses of our Intelligence and Information Systems (IIS) 
segment in the first quarter of 2011.

In June 2011, RSL submitted in the arbitration its defenses to the UKBA claim as well as substantial counterclaims in the 
amount of approximately £500 million (approximately $808 million based on foreign exchange rates as of December 31, 
2012) against the UKBA for the collection of receivables and damages. On October 3, 2011, the UKBA filed its reply to RSL's 
counterclaims, and increased its claim amount by approximately £32 million, to include additional civil service and post-
termination costs, and approximately £33 million for interest, raising the total gross amount of the UKBA claim for damages 
and clawback of previous payments to approximately £415 million (approximately $670 million based on foreign exchange 
rates as of December 31, 2012). On January 6, 2012, RSL filed its response to the UKBA's reply. RSL is pursuing vigorously 
the collection of all receivables for the program and damages in connection with the wrongful termination and is mounting a 
strong  defense  to  the  UKBA's  alleged  claims  for  losses  and  previous  payments.  RSL  has  also  settled  substantially  all 
subcontractor claims, novated all key subcontracts to the UKBA and agreed with the UKBA that RSL's exit obligations to 
operate the previously delivered capability ended in April 2011. Effective April 15, 2011, the UKBA took over responsibility 
for operating the previously delivered capability.

The receivables and other assets remaining under the program for technology and services delivered were approximately $40 
million at December 31, 2012 and 2011. We believe the remaining receivables and other assets are probable of recovery in 
litigation or arbitration. We currently do not believe it is probable that RSL is liable for losses, previous payments (which 
includes the $80 million related to the drawdown on the letters of credit), clawback or other claims asserted by the UKBA 
either in its March 2011 arbitration filing or its October 2011 reply. Due to the inherent uncertainties in litigation and arbitration, 
and the complexity and technical nature of actual and potential claims and counterclaims, it is reasonably possible that the 
ultimate amount of any resolution of the termination could be less or greater than the amounts we have recorded. For the same 
reasons, at this time, we are unable to estimate a range of the possible loss or recovery, if any, beyond the claim and counterclaim 
amounts. If we fail to collect the receivable balances or are required to make payments against claims or other losses asserted 
by the UKBA in excess of the amounts we have recorded, it could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, 
results of operations or liquidity. Arbitration hearings commenced in late 2012 and we expect to have a decision in 2013.  

On June 29, 2012 and July 13, 2012, we received a contracting officer’s final decision (COFD) for 2005 and 2004 incurred 
costs at our SAS business. The COFDs demand a total payment of $241 million for costs, interest and penalties associated 
with several issues, the largest of which relates to specific research and development and capital projects undertaken by SAS 
between  2000  and  2005. To  date,  no  COFDs  have  been  provided  for  2000  to  2003  periods  at  SAS  on  these  issues. The 
Government alleges that the costs incurred on the projects should have been charged directly to U.S. Government contracts 
rather than through indirect rates and that these costs should not be recoverable. We strongly disagree with the Government's 
position. We have requested a deferment of the payment and intend to litigate the issues. Due to the inherent uncertainties of 
litigation, we cannot estimate a range of potential loss. We believe that we appropriately charged the disputed costs based on 
government accounting standards and applicable precedent and properly disclosed our approach to the Government. We also 
believe that in many cases, the statute of limitations has run on the issues. Based upon the foregoing, we do not expect the

results of the COFDs to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

COMPANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The  financial  statements  and  related  information  contained  in  this Annual  Report  have  been  prepared  by  and  are  the 

responsibility of our management. Our financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles 

generally accepted in the United States of America and reflect judgments and estimates as to the expected effects of transactions 

and events currently being reported. Our management is responsible for the integrity and objectivity of the financial statements 

and other financial information included in this Annual Report. To meet this responsibility, we maintain a system of internal 

control over financial reporting to provide reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded and that transactions are properly 

executed and recorded. The system includes policies and procedures, internal audits and our officers’ reviews.

Our Audit Committee of our Board of Directors is composed solely of directors who are independent under applicable SEC 

and  New York  Stock  Exchange  rules.  Our Audit  Committee  meets  periodically  and,  when  appropriate,  separately  with 

representatives of the independent registered public accounting firm, our officers and the internal auditors to monitor the 

activities of each.

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, was appointed by our Audit Committee to 

audit our financial statements and our internal control over financial reporting and their report follows. Our stockholders 

ratified the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP at the 2012 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. 

In order to evaluate the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-

Oxley Act, management has conducted an assessment, including testing, using the criteria in Internal Control – Integrated 

Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company’s 

system of internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of 

financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles 

generally accepted in the United States of America. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting 

may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to 

the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the 

policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Based on its assessment, management has concluded that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial 

reporting as of December 31, 2012, based on criteria in Internal Control – Integrated Framework, issued by the COSO. The 

effectiveness  of  the  Company’s  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  as  of  December 31,  2012,  has  been  audited  by 

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which is included 

below.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

Our primary market exposures are to interest rates and foreign exchange rates.

We generally supplement our working capital requirements with a combination of variable-rate short-term and fixed-rate long-
term financing. We enter into foreign currency forward contracts with commercial banks to fix the foreign currency exchange 
rates on specific commitments and payments to vendors and customer receipts. We may enter into interest rate swap agreements 
with commercial and investment banks to manage interest rates associated with our financing arrangements. The market-risk 
sensitive instruments we use for hedging are entered into with commercial and investment banks and are directly related to a 
particular asset, liability or transaction for which a firm commitment is in place.

The following tables provide information as of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 about our market risk exposure 
associated with changing interest rates. For long-term debt obligations, the table presents principal cash flows by maturity 
date and average interest rates related to outstanding obligations. There were no interest rate swaps outstanding at December 31, 
2012 and December 31, 2011.

In addition, the aggregate notional amount of the outstanding foreign currency forward contracts was $1,305 million and $941 
million at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

For foreign currency forward contracts designated and qualifying for hedge accounting, we record the effective portion of the 
gain or loss on the derivative in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, and reclassify it into earnings in the same 
period or periods during which the hedged revenue or cost of sales transaction affects earnings. Unrealized gains of $17 million 
and $12 million were included in non-current assets and unrealized losses of $14 million and $22 million were included in 
current liabilities at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. 

Realized gains and losses resulting from these cash flow hedges offset the foreign currency exchange gains and losses on the 
underlying assets or liabilities being hedged. We believe our exposure due to changes in foreign currency rates is not material 
due to our hedging policy.

At December 31, 2012, we had short-term investments with a fair value of $856 million, which are classified as available-
for-sale and consist of highly rated bank certificates of deposit with a minimum long-term debt rating of A or A2 and a minimum 
short-term debt rating of A-1 and P-1. Our exposure due to changes in interest rates is not material due to the nature and 
amount of our short-term investments (i.e., high-quality certificates of deposit).

In order to evaluate the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-
Oxley Act, management has conducted an assessment, including testing, using the criteria in Internal Control – Integrated 
Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company’s 
system of internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of 
financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles 
generally accepted in the United States of America. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting 
may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to 
the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the 
policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Based on its assessment, management has concluded that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial 
reporting as of December 31, 2012, based on criteria in Internal Control – Integrated Framework, issued by the COSO. The 
effectiveness  of  the  Company’s  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  as  of  December 31,  2012,  has  been  audited  by 
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which is included 
below.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Raytheon Company:

In  our  opinion,  the  accompanying  consolidated  balance  sheets  and  the  related  consolidated  statements  of  operations,  of 
comprehensive income, of equity, and of cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Raytheon 
Company and its subsidiaries at December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each 
of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2012 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the 
United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control 
over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework 
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company’s management 
is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its 
assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s 
Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements 
and on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our integrated audits. We conducted our audits in 
accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require 
that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material 
misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits 
of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial 
statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall 
financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding 
of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the 
design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such 
other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for 
our opinions.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the 
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally 
accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures 
that  (i) pertain  to  the  maintenance  of  records  that,  in  reasonable  detail,  accurately  and  fairly  reflect  the  transactions  and 
dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to 
permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and 
expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the 
company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, 
or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, 
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate 
because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In  our  opinion,  the  accompanying  consolidated  balance  sheets  and  the  related  consolidated  statements  of  operations,  of 

comprehensive income, of equity, and of cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Raytheon 

Company and its subsidiaries at December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each 

of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2012 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the 

United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control 

over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework 

issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company’s management 

is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its 

assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s 

Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements 

and on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our integrated audits. We conducted our audits in 

accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require 

that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material 

misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits 

of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial 

statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall 

financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding 

of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the 

design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such 

other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for 

our opinions.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the 

reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally 

accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures 

that  (i) pertain  to  the  maintenance  of  records  that,  in  reasonable  detail,  accurately  and  fairly  reflect  the  transactions  and 

dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to

company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, 

or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, 

projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate 

because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Consolidation and Classification—The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Raytheon Company, and 
all wholly-owned, majority-owned and otherwise controlled domestic and foreign subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions 
have been eliminated. For classification of certain current assets and liabilities, we use the duration of the related contract or 
program as our operating cycle, which is generally longer than one year. In addition, certain prior year amounts have been 
reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. As used in these notes, the terms “we”, “us”, “our”, “Raytheon” 
and the “Company” mean Raytheon Company and its subsidiaries, unless the context indicates another meaning.

Use of Estimates—Our consolidated financial statements are based on the application of U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting 
Principles (GAAP), which require us to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported 
in our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Future events and their effects cannot be determined 
with certainty. Therefore, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results could differ from 
those estimates, and any such differences may be material to our consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition—We use the percentage-of-completion accounting method to account for our long-term contracts 
associated with the design, development, manufacture, or modification of complex aerospace or electronic equipment and 
related services, such as certain cost-plus service contracts. Under this method, revenue is recognized based on the extent of 
progress towards completion of the long-term contract. Our analysis of these contracts also contemplates whether contracts 
should be combined or segmented in accordance with the applicable criteria under GAAP. We combine closely related contracts 
when  all  the  applicable  criteria  under  GAAP  are  met.  The  combination  of  two  or  more  contracts  requires  judgment  in 
determining whether the intent of entering into the contracts was effectively to enter into a single project, which should be 
combined to reflect an overall profit rate. Similarly, we may segment a project, which may consist of a single contract or 
group of contracts, with varying rates of profitability, only if the applicable criteria under GAAP are met. Judgment also is 
involved in determining whether a single contract or group of contracts may be segmented based on how the arrangement 
was negotiated and the performance criteria. The decision to combine a group of contracts or segment a contract could change 
the amount of revenue and gross profit recorded in a given period.  

The selection of the method by which to measure progress towards completion of a contract requires judgment and is based 
on the nature of the products or services to be provided. We generally use the cost-to-cost measure of progress for our long-
term contracts unless we believe another method more clearly measures progress towards completion of the contract. Under 
the cost-to-cost measure of progress, the extent of progress towards completion is measured based on the ratio of costs incurred 
to date to the total estimated costs at completion of the contract. Contract costs include labor, material and subcontracting 
costs, as well as an allocation of indirect costs. Revenues, including estimated fees or profits, are recorded as costs are incurred. 
Due to the nature of the work required to be performed on many of our contracts, the estimation of total revenue and cost at 
completion (the process for which we describe below in more detail) is complex and subject to many variables. Incentive and 
award fees generally are awarded at the discretion of the customer or upon achievement of certain program milestones or cost 
targets. Incentive and award fees, as well as penalties related to contract performance, are considered in estimating profit 
rates. Estimates of award fees are based on actual awards and anticipated performance, which may include the performance 
of subcontractors or partners depending on the individual contract requirements. Incentive provisions that increase or decrease 
earnings based solely on a single significant event generally are not recognized until the event occurs. Such incentives and 
penalties are recorded when there is sufficient information for us to assess anticipated performance. Our claims on contracts 
are recorded only if it is probable that the claim will result in additional contract revenue and the amounts can be reliably 
estimated. 

We have a Company-wide standard and disciplined quarterly Estimate at Completion (EAC) process in which management 
reviews the progress and performance of our contracts. As part of this process, management reviews information including, 
but not limited to, any outstanding key contract matters, progress towards completion and the related program schedule, 
identified risks and opportunities, and the related changes in estimates of revenues and costs. The risks and opportunities 
include management's judgment about the ability and cost to achieve the schedule (e.g., the number and type of milestone 
events), technical requirements (e.g., a newly-developed product versus a mature product), and other contract requirements. 
Management must make assumptions and estimates regarding labor productivity and availability, the complexity of the work 
to be performed, the availability of materials, the length of time to complete the contract (to estimate increases in wages and 
prices for materials and related support cost allocations), performance by our subcontractors, the availability and timing of 

funding from our customer, and overhead cost rates, among other variables. These estimates also include the estimated cost 

of satisfying our industrial cooperation agreements, sometimes referred to as offset obligations required under certain contracts. 

Based on this analysis, any quarterly adjustments to net sales, cost of sales, and the related impact to operating income are 

recorded as necessary in the period they become known. These adjustments may result from positive program performance, 

and may result in an increase in operating income during the performance of individual contracts, if we determine we will be 

successful in mitigating risks surrounding the technical, schedule, and cost aspects of those contracts or realizing related 

opportunities. Likewise, these adjustments may result in a decrease in operating income if we determine we  will not be 

successful in mitigating these risks or realizing related opportunities. Changes in estimates of net sales, cost of sales, and the 

related impact to operating income are recognized quarterly on a cumulative catch-up basis, which recognizes in the current 

period the cumulative effect of the changes on current and prior periods based on a contract's percentage of completion. A 

significant change in one or more of these estimates could affect the profitability of one or more of our contracts. When 

estimates of total costs to be incurred on a contract exceed total estimates of revenue to be earned, a provision for the entire 

loss on the contract is recorded in the period the loss is determined.  

Our operating income included net EAC adjustments resulting from changes in estimates of approximately $613 million, 

$548  million  and  $158  million  for  the  years  ended  December 31, 2012,  2011  and  2010,  respectively. These  adjustments 

increased our income from continuing operations attributable to Raytheon Company common stockholders by approximately 

$398 million ($1.19 per diluted share), $348 million ($0.98 per diluted share), and $75 million ($0.20 per diluted share) for 

the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

To  a  much  lesser  extent,  we  enter  into  other  types  of  contracts  such  as  service,  commercial,  or  software  and  licensing 

arrangements. Revenue under fixed-price service contracts not associated with the design, development, manufacture, or 

modification of complex aerospace or electronic equipment and commercial contracts generally is recognized upon delivery 

or  as  services  are  rendered  once  persuasive  evidence  of  an  arrangement  exists,  our  price  is  fixed  or  determinable,  and 

collectability is reasonably assured. Costs on fixed-price service contracts are expensed as incurred, unless they otherwise 

qualify for deferral. We recognize revenue on contracts to sell software when evidence of an arrangement exists, the software 

has been delivered and accepted by the customer, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collection is probable. For software 

arrangements that include multiple elements, including perpetual software licenses and undelivered items (e.g., maintenance 

and/or services; subscriptions/term licenses), we allocate and defer revenue for the undelivered items based on vendor specific 

objective evidence (VSOE) of the fair value of the undelivered elements, and recognize revenue on the perpetual license using 

the residual method. We base VSOE of each element on the price for which the undelivered element is sold separately. We 

determine fair value of the undelivered elements based on historical evidence of our stand-alone sales of these elements to 

third parties or from the stated renewal rate for the undelivered elements. When VSOE does not exist for undelivered items, 

we recognize the entire arrangement fee ratably over the applicable performance period. Revenue from non-software license 

fees is recognized over the expected life of the continued involvement with the customer. Royalty revenue is recognized when 

earned.  

We apply the separation guidance under GAAP for contracts with multiple deliverables. We analyze revenue arrangements 

with multiple deliverables to determine if the deliverables should be divided into more than one unit of accounting. For 

contracts with more than one unit of accounting, we allocate the consideration we receive among the separate units of accounting 

based on their relative selling prices, which we determine based on prices of the deliverables as sold on a stand-alone basis, 

or if not sold on a stand-alone basis, the prices we would charge if sold on a stand-alone basis, and we recognize revenue for 

each deliverable based on the revenue recognition policies described above. 

Research and Development Expenses—Expenditures for Company-sponsored research and development projects and bid 

and  proposal  costs  are  expensed  as  incurred.  Customer-sponsored  research  and  development  projects  performed  under 

contracts are accounted for as contract costs as the work is performed and included in contracts in process, net in our consolidated 

balance sheets. Bid and proposal costs were between 40% and 50% of total research and development expenses in 2012, 2011 

and 2010.

Federal, Foreign and State Income Taxes—The Company and its domestic subsidiaries provide for federal income taxes 

on pretax accounting income at rates in effect under existing tax law. Foreign subsidiaries record provisions for income taxes 

at applicable foreign tax rates in a similar manner. Such provisions differ from the amounts currently payable because certain 

items of income and expense are recognized in different time periods for financial reporting purposes than for income tax 

purposes. The payments made for state income taxes are included in administrative and selling expenses as these costs can

$548  million  and  $158  million  for  the  years  ended  December 31, 2012,  2011  and  2010,  respectively. These  adjustments 
increased our income from continuing operations attributable to Raytheon Company common stockholders by approximately 
$398 million ($1.19 per diluted share), $348 million ($0.98 per diluted share), and $75 million ($0.20 per diluted share) for 
the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

To  a  much  lesser  extent,  we  enter  into  other  types  of  contracts  such  as  service,  commercial,  or  software  and  licensing 
arrangements. Revenue under fixed-price service contracts not associated with the design, development, manufacture, or 
modification of complex aerospace or electronic equipment and commercial contracts generally is recognized upon delivery 
or  as  services  are  rendered  once  persuasive  evidence  of  an  arrangement  exists,  our  price  is  fixed  or  determinable,  and 
collectability is reasonably assured. Costs on fixed-price service contracts are expensed as incurred, unless they otherwise 
qualify for deferral. We recognize revenue on contracts to sell software when evidence of an arrangement exists, the software 
has been delivered and accepted by the customer, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collection is probable. For software 
arrangements that include multiple elements, including perpetual software licenses and undelivered items (e.g., maintenance 
and/or services; subscriptions/term licenses), we allocate and defer revenue for the undelivered items based on vendor specific 
objective evidence (VSOE) of the fair value of the undelivered elements, and recognize revenue on the perpetual license using 
the residual method. We base VSOE of each element on the price for which the undelivered element is sold separately. We 
determine fair value of the undelivered elements based on historical evidence of our stand-alone sales of these elements to 
third parties or from the stated renewal rate for the undelivered elements. When VSOE does not exist for undelivered items, 
we recognize the entire arrangement fee ratably over the applicable performance period. Revenue from non-software license 
fees is recognized over the expected life of the continued involvement with the customer. Royalty revenue is recognized when 
earned.  

We apply the separation guidance under GAAP for contracts with multiple deliverables. We analyze revenue arrangements 
with multiple deliverables to determine if the deliverables should be divided into more than one unit of accounting. For 
contracts with more than one unit of accounting, we allocate the consideration we receive among the separate units of accounting 
based on their relative selling prices, which we determine based on prices of the deliverables as sold on a stand-alone basis, 
or if not sold on a stand-alone basis, the prices we would charge if sold on a stand-alone basis, and we recognize revenue for 
each deliverable based on the revenue recognition policies described above. 

Research and Development Expenses—Expenditures for Company-sponsored research and development projects and bid 
and  proposal  costs  are  expensed  as  incurred.  Customer-sponsored  research  and  development  projects  performed  under 
contracts are accounted for as contract costs as the work is performed and included in contracts in process, net in our consolidated 
balance sheets. Bid and proposal costs were between 40% and 50% of total research and development expenses in 2012, 2011 
and 2010.

Federal, Foreign and State Income Taxes—The Company and its domestic subsidiaries provide for federal income taxes 
on pretax accounting income at rates in effect under existing tax law. Foreign subsidiaries record provisions for income taxes 
at applicable foreign tax rates in a similar manner. Such provisions differ from the amounts currently payable because certain 
items of income and expense are recognized in different time periods for financial reporting purposes than for income tax 
purposes. The payments made for state income taxes are included in administrative and selling expenses as these costs can

generally be recovered through the pricing of products and services to the U.S. Government in the period in which the tax is 
payable. Accordingly, the state income tax provision (benefit) is allocated to contracts in future periods as described below 
in Deferred Contract Costs.

Other Expense (Income), Net—Other expense (income), net consists primarily of gains and losses from our investments 
held in rabbi trusts used to fund certain of our non-qualified deferred compensation plans, gains and losses on the early 
repurchase of long-term debt and certain financing fees.

Cash and Cash Equivalents—Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and highly liquid investments with original maturities 
of 90 days or less at the date of purchase.

Short-term Investments—We invest in marketable securities in accordance with our short-term investment policy and cash 
management strategy. These marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale and are recorded at fair value as short-
term investments in our consolidated balance sheets. Unrealized gains and losses on our available-for-sale securities are 
recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax. Realized gains and losses on sales of our available-for-sale 
securities are recorded in other expense (income), net on our consolidated statement of operations. When determined, other 
than  temporary  declines  in  the  value  of  available-for-sale  securities  are  recorded  as  a  loss  in  earnings.  We  make  such 
determinations by considering, among other factors, the length of time the fair value of the investment has been less than the 
carrying  value,  future  business  prospects  for  the  investee,  and  information  regarding  market  and  industry  trends  for  the 
investee's business, if available. For purposes of computing realized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities, we 
determine cost on a specific identification basis. There were no securities deemed to have other than temporary improvements 
or declines in value for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012. In the twelve months ended December 31, 2012, we 
recorded an unrealized gain on short-term investments of less than $1 million, net of tax, in accumulated other comprehensive 
loss. In the twelve months ended December 31, 2012, we recorded gains on sales of short-term investments of less than $1 
million in other expense (income), net. The amortized cost of these securities closely approximated their fair value as of 
December 31, 2012.

Contracts in Process, Net—Contracts in process, net are stated at cost plus estimated profit, but not in excess of estimated 
realizable value. Included in contracts in process are accounts receivable, which include amounts billed and due from customers. 
We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts to provide for the estimated amount of accounts receivable that will not be 
collected. The allowance is based upon an assessment of customer creditworthiness, historical payment experience, the age 
of outstanding receivables and collateral to the extent applicable.

Deferred Contract Costs—Included in contracts in process, net are certain costs related to the performance of our U.S. 
Government contracts which are required to be recorded under GAAP but are not currently allocable to contracts. Such costs 
are deferred and primarily include a portion of our environmental expenses, asset retirement obligations, certain restructuring 
costs, deferred state income taxes, workers’ compensation and certain other accruals. At December 31, 2012 and December 31, 
2011, net deferred contract costs were approximately $65 million and $190 million, respectively. These costs are allocated to 
contracts when they are paid or otherwise agreed. We regularly assess the probability of recovery of these costs. This assessment 
requires us to make assumptions about the extent of cost recovery under our contracts and the amount of future contract 
activity. If the level of backlog in the future does not support the continued deferral of these costs, the profitability of our 
remaining contracts could be adversely affected. There were no costs deferred on fixed price service contracts at December 31, 
2012 and December 31, 2011.

Pension and other postretirement benefits costs are allocated to our contracts as allowed costs based on the U.S. Government 
cost accounting standards (CAS). The CAS requirements for pension and other postretirement benefits costs differ from the 
financial  accounting  standards  (FAS)  requirements  under  GAAP.  Given  the  inability  to  match  with  reasonable  certainty 
individual expense and income items between the CAS and FAS requirements to determine specific recoverability, we have 
not estimated the incremental FAS income or expense to be recoverable under our expected future contract activity, and 
therefore did not defer any FAS expense for pension and other postretirement benefits plans in 2010–2012. This resulted in 
$255 million of expense, $337 million of expense, and $187 million of expense in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, reflected 
in our consolidated results of operations for the difference between CAS and FAS requirements for our pension and other 
postretirement benefits plans in those years.

Inventories—Inventories are stated at cost (first-in, first-out or average cost), but not in excess of net realizable value. An 

impairment for excess or inactive inventory is recorded based upon an analysis that considers current inventory levels, historical 

usage patterns, future sales expectations and salvage value.

We capitalize costs incurred in advance of contract award or funding in inventories if we determine that contract award or 

funding is probable. To the extent these are precontract costs, start-up costs have been excluded. We included capitalized 

precontract costs and other deferred costs of $100 million and $121 million in inventories as work in process at December 31, 

2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

Property, Plant and Equipment, Net—Property, plant and equipment, net are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. 

Major improvements are capitalized while expenditures for maintenance, repairs and minor improvements are expensed. We 

include gains and losses on the sales of plant and equipment that are allocable to our contracts in overhead as we generally 

can recover these costs through the pricing of products and services to the U.S. Government. For all other sales or asset 

retirements, the assets and related accumulated depreciation and amortization are eliminated from the accounts, and any 

Provisions for depreciation generally are computed using a combination of accelerated and straight-line methods and are

Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the remaining life of the lease or the estimated useful life of the 

Impairment of Goodwill and Long-lived Assets—We evaluate our goodwill for impairment annually or whenever events 

or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable. We perform our annual impairment test 

as of the first day of the fourth quarter utilizing a two-step methodology that requires us to first identify potential goodwill 

impairment and then measure the amount of the related goodwill impairment loss, if any. We have identified our operating 

segments  as  reporting  units  under  the  impairment  test  assessment  criteria  outlined  in  GAAP.  In  performing  our  annual 

impairment test in the fourth quarter of 2012 and 2011, we did not identify any goodwill impairment.

We determine whether long-lived assets are to be held for use or disposal. Upon indication of possible impairment of long-

lived assets held for use, we evaluate the recoverability of such assets by measuring the carrying amount of the assets against 

the related estimated undiscounted future cash flows. When an evaluation indicates that the future undiscounted cash flows 

are not sufficient to recover the carrying value of the asset, the asset is adjusted to its estimated fair value. In order for long-

lived assets to be considered held for disposal, we must have committed to a plan to dispose of the assets. Once deemed held 

for disposal, the assets are stated at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value.

Computer Software, Net—Internal use computer software, net, included in other assets, net, which consists primarily of our 

enterprise-wide software solutions, is stated at cost less accumulated amortization and is amortized using the straight-line 

method over its estimated useful life, generally 10 years.

The defined benefit pension and other employee benefit plans is shown net of tax benefits of $4,218 million and $3,768 million 

at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The cash flow hedges and interest rate locks are shown net of 

tax benefits of $2 million and $7 million at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The unrealized gains 

on investments and other are shown net-of-tax benefits of $4 million and $3 million at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 

2011,  respectively.  We  expect  approximately  $2  million  of  after-tax  net  unrealized  gains  on  our  cash  flow  hedges  at 

December 31, 2012, to be reclassified into earnings at then-current values over the next twelve months as the underlying 

hedged transactions occur.

Material amounts reclassified out of AOCL were related to amortization of net actuarial loss associated with our pension and 

other employee benefit plans and were $942 million, $795 million and $601 million before tax in 2012, 2011 and 2010, 

respectively, and $612 million, $516 million and $390 million net of tax in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. This component 

of AOCL is included in the calculation of net periodic benefit cost (see Note 14: Pension and Other Employee Benefits for 

additional details).

Translation of Foreign Currencies—Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated at current exchange rates 

and  the  effects  of  these  translation  adjustments  are  reported  as  a  component  of AOCL  in  equity.  Deferred  taxes  are  not 

recognized for translation-related temporary differences of foreign subsidiaries as their undistributed earnings are considered 

to be indefinitely reinvested. Income and expenses in foreign currencies are translated at the average exchange rate during 

the period. Foreign exchange transaction gains and losses in 2012, 2011 and 2010 were not material.

Treasury Stock—During 2012, our Board of Directors authorized the retirement of all outstanding treasury shares directly 

held by the Company. As a result, all outstanding treasury shares directly held by the Company were retired in the fourth 

quarter of 2012, with an offsetting reduction in common stock for the par value and the remaining amount offset in additional 

paid-in-capital. In addition, our Board of Directors authorized all future share repurchases to be retired immediately upon 

repurchase. We account for treasury stock under the cost method. Upon retirement the excess over par value is charged against 

additional paid-in capital. The remaining treasury stock activity relates primarily to stock-based compensation awards and 

the related shares withheld to settle employee tax obligations. To conform to the current year presentations, all prior period

The defined benefit pension and other employee benefit plans is shown net of tax benefits of $4,218 million and $3,768 million 
at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The cash flow hedges and interest rate locks are shown net of 
tax benefits of $2 million and $7 million at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The unrealized gains 
on investments and other are shown net-of-tax benefits of $4 million and $3 million at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 
2011,  respectively.  We  expect  approximately  $2  million  of  after-tax  net  unrealized  gains  on  our  cash  flow  hedges  at 
December 31, 2012, to be reclassified into earnings at then-current values over the next twelve months as the underlying 
hedged transactions occur.

Material amounts reclassified out of AOCL were related to amortization of net actuarial loss associated with our pension and 
other employee benefit plans and were $942 million, $795 million and $601 million before tax in 2012, 2011 and 2010, 
respectively, and $612 million, $516 million and $390 million net of tax in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. This component 
of AOCL is included in the calculation of net periodic benefit cost (see Note 14: Pension and Other Employee Benefits for 
additional details).

Translation of Foreign Currencies—Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated at current exchange rates 
and  the  effects  of  these  translation  adjustments  are  reported  as  a  component  of AOCL  in  equity.  Deferred  taxes  are  not 
recognized for translation-related temporary differences of foreign subsidiaries as their undistributed earnings are considered 
to be indefinitely reinvested. Income and expenses in foreign currencies are translated at the average exchange rate during 
the period. Foreign exchange transaction gains and losses in 2012, 2011 and 2010 were not material.

Treasury Stock—During 2012, our Board of Directors authorized the retirement of all outstanding treasury shares directly 
held by the Company. As a result, all outstanding treasury shares directly held by the Company were retired in the fourth 
quarter of 2012, with an offsetting reduction in common stock for the par value and the remaining amount offset in additional 
paid-in-capital. In addition, our Board of Directors authorized all future share repurchases to be retired immediately upon 
repurchase. We account for treasury stock under the cost method. Upon retirement the excess over par value is charged against 
additional paid-in capital. The remaining treasury stock activity relates primarily to stock-based compensation awards and 
the related shares withheld to settle employee tax obligations. To conform to the current year presentations, all prior period

amounts related to treasury stock have been reclassified into additional paid-in capital in our consolidated balance sheets and 
consolidated statements of equity.

(primarily mutual funds) to serve as the basis for measurement of the notional value of their accounts. We also 

include foreign currency forward contracts that we trade in an active exchange market in our Level 1 assets and 

Pension  and  Other  Postretirement  Benefits  Costs—We  have  pension  plans  covering  the  majority  of  our  employees, 
including certain employees in foreign countries. We calculate our pension costs as required under GAAP, and the calculations 
and assumptions utilized require judgment. GAAP outlines the methodology used to determine pension expense or income 
for financial reporting purposes. For purposes of determining pension expense under GAAP, investment gains and losses are 
spread over three years to develop a market-related value of the assets.

We recognize the funded status of a postretirement benefit plan (defined benefit pension and other benefits) as an asset or 
liability in our consolidated balance sheets. Funded status represents the difference between the projected benefit obligation 
of the plan and the market value of the plan’s assets. Previously unrecognized deferred amounts such as demographic or asset 
gains or losses and the impact of historical plan changes are included in AOCL. Changes in these amounts in future years will 
be reflected through AOCL and amortized in future pension expense over the estimated average remaining employee service 
period.

Derivative Financial Instruments—We enter into foreign currency forward contracts with commercial banks to fix the 
foreign currency exchange rates on specific commitments, payments, and receipts. Our foreign currency forward contracts 
are transaction driven and relate directly to a particular asset, liability or transaction for which commitments are in place. For 
foreign currency forward contracts designated and qualified for cash flow hedge accounting, we record the effective portion 
of the gain or loss on the derivative in AOCL, net of tax, and reclassify it into earnings in the same period or periods during 
which the hedged revenue or cost of sales transaction affects earnings.

We recognize all derivative financial instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value in our consolidated balance sheets. 
We measure and record the impact of counterparty credit risk into our valuation and the impact was not material for the years 
ended December 31, 2012 and 2011. We designate most foreign currency forward contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted 
purchases and sales denominated in foreign currencies, and interest rate swaps as fair value hedges of our fixed-rate financing 
obligations. We classify the cash flows from these instruments in the same category as the cash flows from the hedged items. 
We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Realized gains and losses resulting from these cash flow hedges offset the foreign exchange gains and losses on the underlying 
transactions being hedged. Gains and losses on derivatives not designated for hedge accounting or representing either hedge 
ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized currently in net sales or 
cost of sales.

We also periodically enter into pay-variable, receive-fixed interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk associated with our 
fixed-rate financing obligations. We account for our interest rate swaps as fair value hedges of a portion of our fixed-rate 
financing obligations, and accordingly record gains and losses from changes in the fair value of these swaps in interest expense, 
along with the offsetting gains and losses on the fair value adjustment of the hedged portion of our fixed-rate financing 
obligations. We also record in interest expense the net amount paid or received under the swap for the period and the amortization 
of gain or loss from the early termination of interest rate swaps. For a discussion of the impacts of our hedging activities on 
our results, see Note 8: Derivative Financial Instruments.

Fair Values—The accounting standard for fair value measurements provides a framework for measuring fair value and requires 
expanded disclosures regarding fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for an asset 
or the exit price that would be paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction 
between market participants on the measurement date. This accounting standard established a fair value hierarchy, which 
requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs, where available. The following summarizes the three levels of 
inputs required, as well as the assets and liabilities that we value using those levels of inputs.

Level 1:  Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Our Level 1 assets are investments in marketable 
securities held in rabbi trusts that we use to pay benefits under certain of our non-qualified deferred compensation 
plans, which we include in other assets, net. Our Level 1 liabilities include our obligations to pay certain non-
qualified deferred compensation plan benefits, which we include in accrued retiree benefits and other long-term 
liabilities.  Under  these  non-qualified  deferred  compensation  plans,  participants  designate  investment  options 

liabilities.

Level 2:  Observable inputs, other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices 

in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or that we corroborate with observable market 

data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities. Our Level 2 assets at December 31, 2012 

include investments in marketable securities consisting of highly rated bank certificates of deposit. We did not 

have any Level 2 assets at December 31, 2011. Our Level 2 liabilities at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 

2011 include long-term debt. 

Level 3:  Unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity that are significant to the fair value of the assets or 

liabilities. We did not have any Level 3 assets or liabilities at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

Earnings per Share (EPS)—We compute basic EPS attributable to Raytheon Company common stockholders by dividing 

income from continuing operations attributable to Raytheon Company common stockholders, income (loss) from discontinued 

operations attributable to Raytheon Company common stockholders, and net income attributable to Raytheon Company, by 

our weighted-average common shares outstanding, including participating securities outstanding, as described below, during 

the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution beyond shares for basic EPS that could occur if securities or other 

contracts to issue common stock were exercised, converted into common stock, or resulted in the issuance of common stock 

that would have shared in our earnings. We compute basic and diluted EPS using actual income from continuing operations 

attributable to Raytheon Company common stockholders, income (loss) from discontinued operations attributable to Raytheon 

Company common stockholders, net income attributable to Raytheon Company, and our actual weighted-average shares and 

participating securities outstanding rather than the numbers presented within our consolidated financial statements, which are 

rounded to the nearest million. As a result, it may not be possible to recalculate EPS as presented in our consolidated financial 

statements. Furthermore, it may not be possible to recalculate EPS attributable to Raytheon Company common stockholders 

by adjusting EPS from continuing operations by EPS from discontinued operations.

We include all unvested stock awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents, whether paid 

or unpaid, in the number of shares outstanding in our basic and diluted EPS calculations. As a result, we have included all of 

our outstanding unvested restricted stock and Long-Term Performance Plan (LTPP) awards that meet the retirement eligible 

criteria in our calculation of basic and diluted EPS. We disclose EPS for common stock and unvested share-based payment 

awards, and separately disclose distributed and undistributed earnings. Distributed earnings represent common stock dividends 

and dividends earned on unvested share-based payment awards of retirement eligible employees. Undistributed earnings 

represent earnings that were available for distribution but were not distributed. Common stock and unvested share-based 

payment awards earn dividends equally.

Employee Stock Plans—Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the calculated fair value of 

the award. The expense is recognized over the employees’ requisite service period, generally the vesting period of the award. 

The expense is amortized over the service period using the graded vesting method for our restricted stock and restricted stock 

units and the straight-line amortization method for our LTPP. The related gross excess tax benefit received upon exercise of 

stock options or vesting of a stock-based award, if any, is reflected in the consolidated statements of cash flows as a financing 

activity rather than an operating activity.

Risks  and  Uncertainties—We  provide  a  wide  range  of  technologically  advanced  products,  services  and  solutions  for 

principally governmental customers in the U.S. and abroad, and are subject to certain business risks specific to that industry. 

Total sales to the U.S. Government, excluding foreign military sales, were 73%, 74%, and 76% of total net sales in 2012, 

2011 and 2010, respectively. Total sales to customers outside the U.S., including foreign military sales through the U.S. 

Government, were 26%, 25% and 23% of total net sales in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Sales to the U.S. Government 

may be affected by changes in procurement policies, budget considerations, changing concepts of national defense, political 

developments abroad and other factors. Sales to international customers may be affected by changes in the priorities and 

budgets  of  international  customers,  which  may  be  driven  by  changes  in  threat  environments,  geo-political  uncertainties, 

potentially  volatile  worldwide  economic  conditions,  various  regional  and  local  economic  and  political  factors,  risks  and 

uncertainties and U.S. foreign policy.

We also periodically enter into pay-variable, receive-fixed interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk associated with our

in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or that we corroborate with observable market 
data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities. Our Level 2 assets at December 31, 2012 
include investments in marketable securities consisting of highly rated bank certificates of deposit. We did not 
have any Level 2 assets at December 31, 2011. Our Level 2 liabilities at December 31, 2012 and December 31,

Level 3:  Unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity that are significant to the fair value of the assets or 

liabilities. We did not have any Level 3 assets or liabilities at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

by adjusting EPS from continuing operations by EPS from discontinued operations.

We include all unvested stock awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents, whether paid

our outstanding unvested restricted stock and Long-Term Performance Plan (LTPP) awards that meet the retirement eligible

   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

Note 2: Accounting Standards
New pronouncements issued but not effective until after December 31, 2012, are not expected to have a material impact on 
our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

We funded each of the above acquisitions using cash on hand. The operating results of these businesses have been included 

in our consolidated results as of the respective closing dates of the acquisitions. The purchase price of these businesses has 

been allocated to the estimated fair value of net tangible and intangible assets acquired, with any excess purchase price recorded 

Note 3: Acquisitions
In pursuing our business strategies, we acquire and make investments in certain businesses that meet strategic and financial 
criteria. 

In December 2012, we acquired the Government Solutions business of SafeNet, Inc., subsequently renamed Raytheon Secure 
Information Systems, LLC (RSIS) for approximately $280 million in cash, net of cash acquired and exclusive of retention 
payments. RSIS will be integrated into our Network Centric Systems (NCS) business, within the Integrated Communication 
Systems product line as the Secure Information Systems product area. RSIS provides advanced encryption capabilities needed 
by government and industry customers to protect classified data. In connection with this transaction we have preliminarily 
recorded $197 million of goodwill related to expected synergies from combining operations and the value of the existing 
workforce, and $75 million of intangible assets, primarily related to technology with an estimated weighted-average life of 
eight years. We expect to complete the purchase price allocation process in the first quarter of 2013 after the purchase price 
adjustment process and our final reviews are completed. 

Additionally, in 2012 we acquired Teligy, Inc., subsequently renamed Raytheon Teligy, Inc., and an Australian company, 
Poseidon Scientific Instruments Pty Ltd., for an aggregate of $22 million in cash, net of cash acquired. Raytheon Teligy, Inc. 
further extends our cybersecurity offerings in wireless communications at Intelligence and Information Systems (IIS). The 
Poseidon Scientific Instruments Pty Ltd. acquisition is part of our strategy to extend and enhance our Integrated Defense 
Systems (IDS) offerings. In connection with these acquisitions we recorded $15 million of goodwill, primarily related to 
expected synergies from combining operations, and $5 million of intangible assets, primarily related to customer relationships 
and technology with a weighted-average life of six years.

In 2011, we acquired Applied Signal Technology, Inc., subsequently renamed Raytheon Applied Signal Technology, Inc. 
(RAST) for $500 million in cash, net of $25 million of cash and cash equivalents acquired, and exclusive of retention and 
management incentive payments. RAST provides advanced intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) solutions to 
enhance global security. The acquisition is part of our strategy to extend and enhance our Space and Airborne Systems (SAS) 
offerings  related  to  certain  classified  and  Department  of  Defense  markets.  Pro  forma  financial  information  has  not  been 
provided for this acquisition since it is not material. In connection with this acquisition, we recorded $387 million of goodwill, 
all of which was allocated to our SAS segment, primarily related to expected synergies from combining operations and the 
value of RAST's assembled workforce, and $89 million in intangible assets, primarily related to contractual relationships, 
license agreements and trade names with a weighted-average life of seven years.  

Additionally, in 2011 we acquired Henggeler Computer Consultants Inc., Pikewerks Corporation and substantially all of the 
assets of Ktech Corporation for an aggregate of $145 million in cash, net of cash acquired. The Henggeler Computer Consultants 
Inc. and Pikewerks Corporation acquisitions enhance our cybersecurity and information assurance capabilities at Intelligence 
and Information Systems (IIS). The Ktech Corporation acquisition is part of our strategy to extend and enhance our Missile 
Systems (MS) offerings. In connection with these acquisitions, we recorded $112 million of goodwill, primarily related to 
expected synergies from combining operations and the value of the existing workforce, and $26 million of intangible assets, 
primarily related to customer relationships, trade names and technology with an initial estimated weighted-average life of 
seven years. 

In 2010, we acquired Trusted Computer Solutions Inc., Technology Associates Inc. and substantially all of the assets of an 
Australian company, Compucat Research Pty. Ltd, for an aggregate of $152 million in cash, net of cash acquired. These 
acquisitions enhance our cybersecurity and information assurance capabilities at IIS. In connection with these acquisitions, 
we recorded $125 million of goodwill, primarily related to expected synergies from combining operations and the value of 
the  existing  workforce,  and  $28 million  of  intangible  assets,  primarily  related  to  technology,  trade  names  and  customer 
relationships with a weighted-average life of five years.

Pro forma financial information and revenue from the date of acquisition has not been provided for these acquisitions as they 
are not material either individually or in the aggregate.

The total amount of goodwill that is expected to be deductible for tax purposes related to these acquisitions was $312 million 

as goodwill.

Note 4: Discontinued Operations

In pursuing our business strategies we have divested certain non-core businesses, investments and assets when appropriate. 

All residual activity relating to our previously-disposed businesses appears in discontinued operations. 

During the three months ended April 1, 2012, we completed the disposal or abandonment of the remaining individual assets 

of our former turbo-prop commuter aircraft portfolio, Raytheon Airline Aviation Services (RAAS), and all operations have 

ceased. As a result, we have reported the results of RAAS as a discontinued operation for all periods presented. The sale of 

the remaining operating assets in the year ended December 31, 2012, resulted in a gain of less than $1 million.

Income (loss) from discontinued operations included the following results of RAAS at December 31:

No interest expense relating to RAAS was allocated to discontinued operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 

2012 and 2011 because there was no debt specifically attributable to discontinued operations.

We retained certain assets and liabilities of our previously-disposed businesses. At December 31, 2012 and December 31, 

2011, we had $7 million and $19 million, respectively, of assets primarily related to our retained interest in general aviation 

finance  receivables  previously  sold  by  Raytheon  Aircraft  Company  (Raytheon  Aircraft).  At  December 31,  2012  and 

December 31,  2011,  we  had  $36  million  and  $44  million,  respectively,  of  liabilities  primarily  related  to  non-income  tax 

obligations, certain environmental and product liabilities, various contract obligations and aircraft lease obligations. We also 

retained certain pension assets and obligations which we include in our pension disclosures. 

In the divestiture of Flight Options LLC (Flight Options), we agreed to indemnify Flight Options in the event they were 

assessed and paid excise taxes. In the fourth quarter of 2010, Internal Revenue Service (IRS) appeals proceedings failed to 

resolve the federal excise tax dispute, and as a result, the IRS assessed Flight Options for excise taxes. As a result, in the 

fourth quarter of 2010 we recorded a $39 million charge, net of federal tax benefit, in discontinued operations. In the first 

quarter of 2011, Flight Options paid the assessment. On behalf of Flight Options, we intend to vigorously contest the matter

our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

In pursuing our business strategies, we acquire and make investments in certain businesses that meet strategic and financial 

Note 3: Acquisitions

criteria. 

In December 2012, we acquired the Government Solutions business of SafeNet, Inc., subsequently renamed Raytheon Secure 

Information Systems, LLC (RSIS) for approximately $280 million in cash, net of cash acquired and exclusive of retention 

payments. RSIS will be integrated into our Network Centric Systems (NCS) business, within the Integrated Communication 

Systems product line as the Secure Information Systems product area. RSIS provides advanced encryption capabilities needed 

by government and industry customers to protect classified data. In connection with this transaction we have preliminarily 

recorded $197 million of goodwill related to expected synergies from combining operations and the value of the existing 

workforce, and $75 million of intangible assets, primarily related to technology with an estimated weighted-average life of 

eight years. We expect to complete the purchase price allocation process in the first quarter of 2013 after the purchase price 

adjustment process and our final reviews are completed. 

Additionally, in 2012 we acquired Teligy, Inc., subsequently renamed Raytheon Teligy, Inc., and an Australian company, 

Poseidon Scientific Instruments Pty Ltd., for an aggregate of $22 million in cash, net of cash acquired. Raytheon Teligy, Inc. 

further extends our cybersecurity offerings in wireless communications at Intelligence and Information Systems (IIS). The 

Poseidon Scientific Instruments Pty Ltd. acquisition is part of our strategy to extend and enhance our Integrated Defense 

Systems (IDS) offerings. In connection with these acquisitions we recorded $15 million of goodwill, primarily related to 

expected synergies from combining operations, and $5 million of intangible assets, primarily related to customer relationships 

and technology with a weighted-average life of six years.

In 2011, we acquired Applied Signal Technology, Inc., subsequently renamed Raytheon Applied Signal Technology, Inc. 

(RAST) for $500 million in cash, net of $25 million of cash and cash equivalents acquired, and exclusive of retention and 

management incentive payments. RAST provides advanced intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) solutions to 

enhance global security. The acquisition is part of our strategy to extend and enhance our Space and Airborne Systems (SAS) 

offerings  related  to  certain  classified  and  Department  of  Defense  markets.  Pro  forma  financial  information  has  not  been 

provided for this acquisition since it is not material. In connection with this acquisition, we recorded $387 million of goodwill, 

all of which was allocated to our SAS segment, primarily related to expected synergies from combining operations and the 

value of RAST's assembled workforce, and $89 million in intangible assets, primarily related to contractual relationships, 

license agreements and trade names with a weighted-average life of seven years.  

Additionally, in 2011 we acquired Henggeler Computer Consultants Inc., Pikewerks Corporation and substantially all of the 

assets of Ktech Corporation for an aggregate of $145 million in cash, net of cash acquired. The Henggeler Computer Consultants 

Inc. and Pikewerks Corporation acquisitions enhance our cybersecurity and information assurance capabilities at Intelligence 

and Information Systems (IIS). The Ktech Corporation acquisition is part of our strategy to extend and enhance our Missile 

Systems (MS) offerings. In connection with these acquisitions, we recorded $112 million of goodwill, primarily related to 

expected synergies from combining operations and the value of the existing workforce, and $26 million of intangible assets, 

primarily related to customer relationships, trade names and technology with an initial estimated weighted-average life of 

seven years. 

In 2010, we acquired Trusted Computer Solutions Inc., Technology Associates Inc. and substantially all of the assets of an 

Australian company, Compucat Research Pty. Ltd, for an aggregate of $152 million in cash, net of cash acquired. These 

acquisitions enhance our cybersecurity and information assurance capabilities at IIS. In connection with these acquisitions, 

we recorded $125 million of goodwill, primarily related to expected synergies from combining operations and the value of 

the  existing  workforce,  and  $28 million  of  intangible  assets,  primarily  related  to  technology,  trade  names  and  customer 

relationships with a weighted-average life of five years.

Pro forma financial information and revenue from the date of acquisition has not been provided for these acquisitions as they 

are not material either individually or in the aggregate.

   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

We funded each of the above acquisitions using cash on hand. The operating results of these businesses have been included 
in our consolidated results as of the respective closing dates of the acquisitions. The purchase price of these businesses has 
been allocated to the estimated fair value of net tangible and intangible assets acquired, with any excess purchase price recorded 
as goodwill.

The total amount of goodwill that is expected to be deductible for tax purposes related to these acquisitions was $312 million 
at December 31, 2012.

The U.S. Government has title to the assets related to unbilled amounts on contracts that provide progress payments. Unbilled 
amounts are recorded under the percentage-of-completion method and are recoverable from the customer upon shipment of 
the product, presentation of billings or completion of the contract. Included in unbilled at December 31, 2012 was $120 million 
which is expected to be collected outside of one year.

Billed  and  unbilled  contracts  in  process  include  retentions  arising  from  contractual  provisions. At  December 31,  2012, 
retentions were $38 million. We anticipate collecting $22 million of these retentions in 2013 and the balance thereafter.

In 2001, we formed the TRS joint venture. TRS is a system of systems integrator and provides fully customized solutions 

through the integration of command and control centers, radars, and communication networks. We record our share of the 

TRS income or loss and other comprehensive income (loss) as a component of cost of sales and AOCL, respectively. We 

record losses beyond the carrying amount of the investment only when we guarantee obligations of the investee or commit 

to provide the investee further financial support.

TRS has two major operating subsidiaries, one of which, Thales-Raytheon Systems Co. LLC (TRS LLC), we control and 

consolidate and is a component of our NCS segment, and the other one, Thales-Raytheon Systems Company S.A.S. (TRS 

SAS), which we account for using the equity method through our investment in TRS. Of the $69 million investment in TRS, 

$65 million represents undistributed earnings at December 31, 2012. Our consolidated statements of operations includes net 

income, which represents net income attributable to Raytheon Company and net income attributable to noncontrolling interests 

in subsidiaries. Our primary noncontrolling interest relates to TRS LLC. TRS LLC has a joint venture with TRS SAS called 

Air  Command  Systems  International  S.A.S.  (ACSI),  for  which TRS  LLC  performs  work. TRS  LLC  had  $58  million  of 

receivables due from ACSI.

In addition, we have entered into certain joint ventures formed specifically to facilitate a teaming arrangement between two 

contractors for the benefit of the customer, generally the U.S. Government, whereby we receive a subcontract from the joint 

venture in the joint venture’s capacity as prime contractor. Accordingly, we record the work we perform for the joint venture 

as an operating activity.

Periodically we enter into other equity method investments which are not related to our core operations. We record the income 

or loss from these investments as a component of other (income) expense, net. We record losses beyond the carrying amount

Pretax gains (losses) related to foreign currency forward contracts not designated as cash flow hedges were not material at 
December 31, 2012 and 2011.

There were no interest rate swaps outstanding for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.

In December 2012, we issued $1.1 billion of fixed rate long-term debt with a maturity of 10 years. In conjunction with the 
debt issuance, we entered into interest rate lock agreements with a total notional value of $700 million to manage interest rate 
risk, which resulted in a decrease to AOCL of $3 million to be amortized over the term of the debt issued. As of December 
31, 2012, the above referenced interest rate locks were closed out.

In November 2011, we issued $1.0 billion of fixed rate long-term debt with maturities ranging from 3 to 30 years. In conjunction 
with the debt issuance, we entered into interest rate lock agreements with a total notional value of $575 million to manage 
interest rate risk, which resulted in an increase to AOCL of $5 million to be amortized over the term of the debt issued. As of 
December 31, 2011, the above referenced interest rate locks were closed out.

We use foreign currency forward contracts to fix the functional currency value of specific commitments, payments and receipts. 
The aggregate notional amount of the outstanding foreign currency forward contracts was $1,305 million and $941 million 
at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The foreign currency forward contracts at December 31, 2012 
have maturities at various dates through 2028 as follows: $744 million in 2013; $298 million in 2014; $95 million in 2015; 
$92 million in 2016; and $76 million thereafter.

Our foreign currency forward contracts contain off-set or netting provisions to mitigate credit risk in the event of counterparty 
default, including payment default and cross default. At both December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the fair value of 
our counterparty default exposure was less than $1 million and spread across numerous highly rated counterparties.

Note 9: Fair Value Measurements

The estimated fair value of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments, 

approximates the carrying value due to their short maturities. The estimated fair value of notes receivable approximates the 

carrying value based principally on their underlying interest rates and terms, maturities, collateral and credit status of the 

receivables. The carrying value of long-term debt of $4,731 million and $4,605 million at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 

2011, respectively, was recorded at amortized cost. The estimated fair value of long-term debt of approximately $5,483 million 

and $5,121 million at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, was determined based on quoted prices in 

inactive markets, which falls within Level 2 of the fair value measurement hierarchy.

At December 31, 2012, we had short-term investments of $856 million consisting of highly rated bank certificates of deposit 

with a minimum long-term debt rating of A or A2 and a minimum short-term debt rating of A-1 or P-1.

We did not have any significant nonfinancial assets or nonfinancial liabilities that would be recognized or disclosed at fair 

value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

We did not have any transfers of assets and liabilities between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value measurement hierarchy 

during the year ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

The following tables set forth the financial assets and liabilities that we measured at fair value on a recurring basis by level 

within the fair value hierarchy. We classify assets and liabilities measured at fair value in their entirety based on the lowest 

level of input that is significant to their fair value measurement.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis consisted of the following at December 31:

Note 8: Derivative Financial Instruments

Our primary market exposures are to interest rates and foreign exchange rates and we use certain derivative financial instruments 

to help manage these exposures. We execute these instruments with financial institutions we judge to be credit-worthy, and 

the majority of our foreign currency forward contracts are denominated in currencies of major industrial countries. We do not 

hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

The notes are redeemable by us at any time at redemption prices based on U.S. Treasury rates.

In the fourth quarter of 2012, we received proceeds of $1,092 million for the issuance of $1.1 billion fixed rate long-term 
debt and exercised our call rights to repurchase, at prices based on fixed spreads to the U.S. Treasuries, $970 million of our 
long-term debt due 2014 and 2015 at a loss of $29 million pretax, $19 million after-tax, which is included in other (income) 
expense, net.

In the fourth quarter of 2011, we received proceeds of $992 million for the issuance of $1.0 billion fixed rate long-term debt.

We may enter into interest rate swap agreements with commercial and investment banks to manage interest rates associated 
with our financing arrangements.

There are no aggregate amounts of principal payments due on long-term debt for the next five years.

In December 2011, we entered into a $1.4 billion revolving credit facility maturing in 2016, replacing the previous $500 million 
and $1.0 billion credit facilities, both scheduled to mature in November 2012. 

Under the $1.4 billion credit facility, we can borrow, issue letters of credit and backstop commercial paper. Borrowings under 
this facility bear interest at various rate options, including LIBOR plus a margin based on our credit ratings. Based on our 
credit ratings at December 31, 2012, borrowings would generally bear interest at LIBOR plus 90 basis points. The credit 
facility is comprised of commitments from approximately 25 separate highly rated lenders, each committing no more than 
10% of the facility. As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, there were no borrowings outstanding under this credit 
facility. However, we had $2 million and $3 million of outstanding letters of credit at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 
2011, respectively, which effectively reduced our borrowing capacity under this credit facility by those same amounts. 

Under the $1.4 billion credit facility we must comply with certain covenants, including a ratio of total debt to total capitalization 

of no more than 60%. We were in compliance with the credit facility covenants during 2012 and 2011. Our ratio of total debt 

to total capitalization, as those terms are defined in the credit facility, was 36.6% at December 31, 2012. We are providing 

this ratio as this metric is used by our lenders to monitor our leverage and is also a threshold that limits our ability to utilize 

this facility. We were also required to comply with certain covenants in connection with our previous credit facilities and were 

in compliance with such covenants in 2011. 

Total cash paid for interest on notes payable and long-term debt was $198 million, $167 million and $134 million in 2012, 

2011 and 2010, respectively.

Rent expense was $258 million, $271 million and $306 million in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. In the normal course 

of business, we lease equipment, office buildings and other facilities under leases that include standard escalation clauses for 

adjusting rent payments to reflect changes in price indices, as well as renewal options.

At December 31, 2012, we had commitments under agreements to outsource a portion of our information technology function, 

which have no minimum annual payments.

Environmental Matters—We are involved in various stages of investigation and cleanup related to remediation of various 

environmental sites. Our estimate of the liability of total environmental remediation costs includes the use of a discount rate 

and takes into account that a portion of these costs is eligible for future recovery through the pricing of our products and 

services to the U.S. Government. We consider such recovery probable based on government contracting regulations and our 

long history of receiving reimbursement for such costs, and accordingly have recorded the estimated future recovery of these 

costs from the U.S. Government within contracts in process. Our estimates regarding remediation costs to be incurred were 

as follows at December 31: 

(In millions, except percentages)

Total remediation costs—undiscounted

Weighted average risk-free rate

Total remediation costs—discounted

Recoverable portion

We also lease certain government-owned properties and are generally not liable for remediation of preexisting environmental 

contamination at these sites; as a result, we generally do not provide for these costs in our consolidated financial statements.  

Due to the complexity of environmental laws and regulations, the varying costs and effectiveness of alternative cleanup 

methods and technologies, the uncertainty of insurance coverage and the unresolved extent of our responsibility, it is difficult 

to determine the ultimate outcome of environmental matters; however, we do not expect any additional liability to have a 

material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

Included in guarantees and letters of credit described above were $108 million and $225 million, respectively, at December 31, 
2012, and $109 million and $240 million, respectively, at December 31, 2011, related to our joint venture in TRS. We provide 
these guarantees and letters of credit to TRS and other affiliates to assist these entities in obtaining financing on more favorable 
terms, making bids on contracts and performing their contractual obligations. While we expect these entities to satisfy their 
loans,  and  meet  their  project  performance  and  other  contractual  obligations,  their  failure  to  do  so  may  result  in  a  future 
obligation to us. We periodically evaluate the risk of TRS and other affiliates failing to satisfy their loans, project performance 
and meet other contractual obligations described above. At December 31, 2012, we believe the risk that TRS and other affiliates 
will not be able to perform or meet their obligations is minimal for the foreseeable future based on their current financial 
condition. All obligations were current at December 31, 2012. At December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had an 
estimated liability of $4 million and $6 million, respectively, related to these guarantees and letters of credit.

In 1997, we provided a first loss guarantee of $133 million on $1.3 billion of U.S. Export-Import Bank loans (maturing in 
2015) to the Brazilian Government related to System for the Vigilance of the Amazon (SIVAM) program being performed 
by Network Centric Systems. Loan repayments by the Brazilian Government were current at December 31, 2012.

We have entered into industrial cooperation agreements, sometimes referred to as offset agreements, as a condition to obtaining 
orders for our products and services from certain customers in foreign countries. At December 31, 2012, the aggregate amount 
of our offset agreements had an outstanding notional value of approximately $5 billion. These agreements are designed to 
return economic value to the foreign country by requiring the contractor to engage in activities supporting local defense or 
commercial industries, promoting a balance of trade, developing in-country technology capabilities, or addressing other local 
development  priorities.  Offset  agreements  may  be  satisfied  through  activities  that  do  not  require  a  direct  cash  payment, 
including transferring technology, providing manufacturing, training and other consulting support to in-country projects, and 
the purchase by third parties (e.g., our vendors) of supplies from in-country vendors. These agreements may also be satisfied 
through our use of cash for activities such as subcontracting with local partners, purchasing supplies from in-country vendors, 
providing financial support for in-country projects, and making investments in local ventures. Such activities may also vary 
country-by-country depending upon requirements as dictated by their governments. We typically do not commit to offset 
agreements until orders for our products or services are definitive. The amounts ultimately applied against our offset agreements 
are based on negotiations with the customers and typically require cash outlays that represent only a fraction of the notional 
value in the offset agreements. Offset programs usually extend over several or more years and may provide for penalties in 
the event we fail to perform in accordance with offset requirements. We have historically not been required to pay any such 
penalties. 

As a government contractor, we are subject to many levels of audit and investigation by the U.S. Government relating to our 
contract  performance  and  compliance  with  applicable  rules  and  regulations. Agencies  that  oversee  contract  performance 

include:  the  Defense  Contract Audit Agency,  the  Defense  Contract  Management Agency,  the  Inspector  General  of  the 

Department of Defense and other departments and agencies, the Government Accountability Office, the Department of Justice 

and Congressional Committees. From time to time, these and other agencies investigate or conduct audits to determine whether 

our operations are being conducted in accordance with applicable requirements. Such investigations and audits could result 

in administrative, civil or criminal liabilities, including repayments, fines or penalties being imposed upon us, the suspension 

of government export licenses or the suspension or debarment from future U.S. Government contracting. U.S. Government 

investigations often take years to complete and many result in no adverse action against us. Our final allowable incurred costs 

for each year are also subject to audit and have from time to time resulted in disputes between us and the U.S. Government 

with litigation resulting at the Court of Federal Claims (COFC) or the Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals (ASBCA) 

or their related courts of appeals. In addition, the Department of Justice has, from time to time, convened grand juries to 

investigate possible irregularities by us. We also provide products and services to customers outside of the U.S. and those 

sales are subject to local government laws, regulations, and procurement policies and practices. Our compliance with such 

local government regulations or any applicable U.S. Government regulations (e.g., the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the 

International Traffic in Arms Regulations) may also be investigated or audited. Other than as specifically disclosed herein, 

we do not expect these audits, investigations or disputes to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations 

or liquidity, either individually or in the aggregate. 

We have completed a self-initiated internal review of certain of our international operations, focusing on compliance with the 

Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. In the course of the review, we identified possible areas of concern involving certain practices 

related to operations in a foreign jurisdiction where we do business. We voluntarily disclosed and shared the results of our 

review with the SEC and the DoJ. The SEC staff and the DoJ have completed their review of this matter without recommending 

enforcement action. 

On July 22, 2010, RSL was notified by the UKBA that it had been terminated for cause on a program. The termination notice 

included  allegations  that  RSL  had  failed  to  perform  on  certain  key  milestones  and  other  matters  in  addition  to  claiming 

entitlement to recovery of certain losses incurred and previous payments made to RSL. We believe that RSL performed well 

and delivered substantial capabilities to the UKBA under the program, which has been operating successfully and providing 

actionable information since live operations began in May 2009. As a result of the termination notice, we adjusted our estimated 

amount of revenue and costs under the program in the second quarter of 2010. The impact of the UKBA Program Adjustment 

reduced  IIS'  total  net  sales  and  operating  income  by  $316  million  and  $395  million,  respectively,  for  the  year  ended 

December 31, 2010. The UKBA Program Adjustment also reduced total company diluted earnings per share from continuing 

operations by $0.75 in the year ended December 31, 2010. On July 29, 2010, RSL filed a dispute notice on the grounds that 

the termination by the UKBA was not valid. On August 18, 2010, the UKBA initiated arbitration proceedings on this issue. 

On March 22, 2011, the UKBA gave notice that it had presented a demand to draw on the approximately $80 million of letters 

of credit provided by RSL upon the signing of the contract with the UKBA in 2007. On March 23, 2011, the UKBA submitted 

a detailed claim in the arbitration of approximately £350 million (approximately $565 million based on foreign exchange 

rates as of December 31, 2012) for damages and clawback of previous payments, plus interest and arbitration costs, excluding 

any credit for capability delivered or draw on the letters of credit. The UKBA also asserted that additional amounts may be 

detailed in the claim in the future if estimates of its damages change, and for continuing post-termination losses and any re-

procurement costs, which have not been quantified. At RSL's request, on March 29, 2011, the Arbitration Tribunal issued an 

interim order restraining the UKBA from drawing down on the letters of credit pending a hearing on the issue. Following the 

hearing, the Tribunal lifted the restraint on the basis that, at this early stage of the proceedings, the Tribunal had not heard the 

evidence needed to decide the merits of whether the contractual conditions for a drawdown had been established. The Tribunal 

also concluded that any decision on the UKBA's right to call on the letters of credit is inextricably intertwined with the ultimate 

decision on the merits in the arbitration. The Tribunal also preserved RSL's right to claim damages should RSL later establish 

that the drawdown was not valid. As a result, on April 6, 2011, the UKBA drew the $80 million on the letters of credit.

As a result of the Tribunal's decision that the letters of credit are inextricably intertwined with the ultimate decision on the 

merits in the arbitration, we were no longer able to evaluate, independently from the overall claim, the probability of recovery 

of any amounts drawn on the letters of credit. We therefore recorded $80 million of costs related to the UKBA drawdown 

(UKBA LOC Adjustment), which is included in the operating expenses of our Intelligence and Information Systems (IIS) 

segment in the first quarter of 2011.

Financing Arrangements and Other—We issue guarantees and banks and surety companies issue, on our behalf, letters of 

credit and surety bonds to meet various bid, performance, warranty, retention and advance payment obligations of us or our 

affiliates. These instruments expire on various dates through 2023. Additional guarantees of project performance for which 

there is no stated value also remain outstanding. The stated values outstanding consisted of the following at December 31: 

Included in guarantees and letters of credit described above were $108 million and $225 million, respectively, at December 31, 

2012, and $109 million and $240 million, respectively, at December 31, 2011, related to our joint venture in TRS. We provide 

these guarantees and letters of credit to TRS and other affiliates to assist these entities in obtaining financing on more favorable

and meet other contractual obligations described above. At December 31, 2012, we believe the risk that TRS and other affiliates 

will not be able to perform or meet their obligations is minimal for the foreseeable future based on their current financial 

condition. All obligations were current at December 31, 2012. At December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had an 

estimated liability of $4 million and $6 million, respectively, related to these guarantees and letters of credit.

   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

In June 2011, RSL submitted in the arbitration its defenses to the UKBA claim as well as substantial counterclaims in the 
amount of approximately £500 million (approximately $808 million based on foreign exchange rates as of December 31, 
2012) against the UKBA for the collection of receivables and damages. On October 3, 2011, the UKBA filed its reply to RSL's 
counterclaims, and increased its claim amount by approximately £32 million, to include additional civil service and post 
termination costs, and approximately £33 million for interest, raising the total gross amount of the UKBA claim for damages 
and clawback of previous payments to approximately £415 million (approximately $670 million based on foreign exchange 
rates as of December 31, 2012). On January 6, 2012, RSL filed its response to the UKBA's reply. RSL is pursuing vigorously 
the collection of all receivables for the program and damages in connection with the wrongful termination and is mounting 
a  strong  defense  to  the  UKBA's  alleged  claims  for  losses  and  previous  payments.  RSL  has  also  settled  substantially  all 
subcontractor claims, novated all key subcontracts to the UKBA and agreed with the UKBA that RSL's exit obligations to 
operate the previously delivered capability ended in April 2011. Effective April 15, 2011, the UKBA took over responsibility 
for operating the previously delivered capability. 

The receivables and other assets remaining under the program for technology and services delivered were approximately $40 
million at December 31, 2012 and 2011. We believe the remaining receivables and other assets are probable of recovery in 
litigation or arbitration. We currently do not believe it is probable that RSL is liable for losses, previous payments (which 
includes the $80 million related to the drawdown on the letters of credit), clawback or other claims asserted by the UKBA 
either in its March 2011 arbitration filing or its October 2011 reply. Due to the inherent uncertainties in litigation and arbitration, 
and the complexity and technical nature of actual and potential claims and counterclaims, it is reasonably possible that the 
ultimate amount of any resolution of the termination could be less or greater than the amounts we have recorded. For the same 
reasons, at this time, we are unable to estimate a range of the possible loss or recovery, if any, beyond the claim and counterclaim 
amounts. If we fail to collect the receivable balances or are required to make payments against claims or other losses asserted 
by the UKBA in excess of the amounts we have recorded, it could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, 
results of operations or liquidity. Arbitration hearings commenced in late 2012 and we expect to have a decision in 2013.   

On June 29, 2012 and July 13, 2012, we received a contracting officer’s final decision (COFD) for 2005 and 2004 incurred 
costs at our SAS business. The COFDs demand a total payment of $241 million for costs, interest and penalties associated 
with several issues, the largest of which relates to specific research and development and capital projects undertaken by SAS 
between  2000  and  2005. To  date,  no  COFDs  have  been  provided  for  2000  to  2003  periods  at  SAS  on  these  issues. The 
Government alleges that the costs incurred on the projects should have been charged directly to U.S. Government contracts 
rather than through indirect rates and that these costs should not be recoverable. We strongly disagree with the Government's 
position. We have requested a deferment of the payment and intend to litigate the issues. Due to the inherent uncertainties of 
litigation, we cannot estimate a range of potential loss. We believe that we appropriately charged the disputed costs based on 
government accounting standards and applicable precedent and properly disclosed our approach to the Government. We also 
believe that in many cases, the statute of limitations has run on the issues. Based upon the foregoing, we do not expect the 
results of the COFDs to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.  

In addition, various other claims and legal proceedings generally incidental to the normal course of business are pending or 
threatened against us. We do not expect any additional liability from these proceedings to have a material adverse effect on 
our financial position, results of operations or liquidity. In connection with certain of our legal matters, we may be entitled 
to insurance recovery for qualified legal costs. We do not expect any insurance recovery to have a material impact on the 
financial exposure that could result from these matters.

On May 27, 2010, our stockholders approved the Raytheon 2010 Stock Plan pursuant to which we may grant restricted stock 

awards, restricted stock units, stock grants, stock options and stock appreciation rights.

In September 2011, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $2.0 billion of our outstanding 

common stock. At December 31, 2012, we had approximately $1.3 billion remaining under this repurchase program. All 

previous repurchase programs had been completed as of December 31, 2012. Share repurchases will take place from time to

In March 2012, our Board of Directors authorized a 16% increase to our annual dividend payout rate from $1.72 to $2.00 per 

share. Our Board of Directors declared cash dividends of $2.00, $1.72 and $1.50 per share in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

On October 4, 2012 our Board of Directors authorized the retirement of all outstanding treasury shares directly held by us. 

As a result, all outstanding treasury shares directly held by us were retired in the fourth quarter of 2012, with an offsetting 

reduction in common stock for the par value and the remaining amount offset in additional paid-in capital. In addition, our 

Board of Directors authorized all future share repurchases to be retired immediately upon repurchase. As a result, all amounts 

related  to  treasury  stock  have  been  reclassified  into  additional  paid-in  capital  on  our  consolidated  balance  sheets  and 

consolidated statements of equity. The cumulative amounts related to prior period treasury stock that have been reclassified 

into additional paid-in capital were $8,153 million and $6,900 million at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

In June 2011, RSL submitted in the arbitration its defenses to the UKBA claim as well as substantial counterclaims in the 

amount of approximately £500 million (approximately $808 million based on foreign exchange rates as of December 31, 

2012) against the UKBA for the collection of receivables and damages. On October 3, 2011, the UKBA filed its reply to RSL's 

counterclaims, and increased its claim amount by approximately £32 million, to include additional civil service and post 

termination costs, and approximately £33 million for interest, raising the total gross amount of the UKBA claim for damages 

and clawback of previous payments to approximately £415 million (approximately $670 million based on foreign exchange 

rates as of December 31, 2012). On January 6, 2012, RSL filed its response to the UKBA's reply. RSL is pursuing vigorously 

the collection of all receivables for the program and damages in connection with the wrongful termination and is mounting 

a  strong  defense  to  the  UKBA's  alleged  claims  for  losses  and  previous  payments.  RSL  has  also  settled  substantially  all 

subcontractor claims, novated all key subcontracts to the UKBA and agreed with the UKBA that RSL's exit obligations to 

operate the previously delivered capability ended in April 2011. Effective April 15, 2011, the UKBA took over responsibility 

for operating the previously delivered capability. 

The receivables and other assets remaining under the program for technology and services delivered were approximately $40 

million at December 31, 2012 and 2011. We believe the remaining receivables and other assets are probable of recovery in 

litigation or arbitration. We currently do not believe it is probable that RSL is liable for losses, previous payments (which 

includes the $80 million related to the drawdown on the letters of credit), clawback or other claims asserted by the UKBA 

either in its March 2011 arbitration filing or its October 2011 reply. Due to the inherent uncertainties in litigation and arbitration, 

and the complexity and technical nature of actual and potential claims and counterclaims, it is reasonably possible that the 

ultimate amount of any resolution of the termination could be less or greater than the amounts we have recorded. For the same 

reasons, at this time, we are unable to estimate a range of the possible loss or recovery, if any, beyond the claim and counterclaim 

amounts. If we fail to collect the receivable balances or are required to make payments against claims or other losses asserted 

by the UKBA in excess of the amounts we have recorded, it could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, 

results of operations or liquidity. Arbitration hearings commenced in late 2012 and we expect to have a decision in 2013.   

On June 29, 2012 and July 13, 2012, we received a contracting officer’s final decision (COFD) for 2005 and 2004 incurred 

costs at our SAS business. The COFDs demand a total payment of $241 million for costs, interest and penalties associated 

with several issues, the largest of which relates to specific research and development and capital projects undertaken by SAS 

between  2000  and  2005. To  date,  no  COFDs  have  been  provided  for  2000  to  2003  periods  at  SAS  on  these  issues. The 

Government alleges that the costs incurred on the projects should have been charged directly to U.S. Government contracts 

rather than through indirect rates and that these costs should not be recoverable. We strongly disagree with the Government's 

position. We have requested a deferment of the payment and intend to litigate the issues. Due to the inherent uncertainties of 

litigation, we cannot estimate a range of potential loss. We believe that we appropriately charged the disputed costs based on 

government accounting standards and applicable precedent and properly disclosed our approach to the Government. We also 

believe that in many cases, the statute of limitations has run on the issues. Based upon the foregoing, we do not expect the 

results of the COFDs to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.  

In addition, various other claims and legal proceedings generally incidental to the normal course of business are pending or 

threatened against us. We do not expect any additional liability from these proceedings to have a material adverse effect on 

our financial position, results of operations or liquidity. In connection with certain of our legal matters, we may be entitled 

to insurance recovery for qualified legal costs. We do not expect any insurance recovery to have a material impact on the 

financial exposure that could result from these matters.

On May 27, 2010, our stockholders approved the Raytheon 2010 Stock Plan pursuant to which we may grant restricted stock 
awards, restricted stock units, stock grants, stock options and stock appreciation rights.

In September 2011, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $2.0 billion of our outstanding 
common stock. At December 31, 2012, we had approximately $1.3 billion remaining under this repurchase program. All 
previous repurchase programs had been completed as of December 31, 2012. Share repurchases will take place from time to 
time at management’s discretion depending on market conditions.

Stock repurchases also include shares surrendered by employees to satisfy tax withholding obligations in connection with 
restricted stock awards, restricted stock units and stock options issued to employees.

In March 2012, our Board of Directors authorized a 16% increase to our annual dividend payout rate from $1.72 to $2.00 per 
share. Our Board of Directors declared cash dividends of $2.00, $1.72 and $1.50 per share in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

On October 4, 2012 our Board of Directors authorized the retirement of all outstanding treasury shares directly held by us. 
As a result, all outstanding treasury shares directly held by us were retired in the fourth quarter of 2012, with an offsetting 
reduction in common stock for the par value and the remaining amount offset in additional paid-in capital. In addition, our 
Board of Directors authorized all future share repurchases to be retired immediately upon repurchase. As a result, all amounts 
related  to  treasury  stock  have  been  reclassified  into  additional  paid-in  capital  on  our  consolidated  balance  sheets  and 
consolidated statements of equity. The cumulative amounts related to prior period treasury stock that have been reclassified 
into additional paid-in capital were $8,153 million and $6,900 million at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

series with terms as determined by them. There were no shares of preferred stock outstanding at December 31, 2012 and 
December 31, 2011.

Warrants to purchase shares of our common stock with an exercise price of $37.50 per share, were included in our calculations 
of diluted EPS at December 31, 2011 and 2010. These warrants expired in June 2011.  

Note 13: Stock-based Compensation Plans
We recorded $122 million, $102 million and $128 million of expense related to stock-based compensation in 2012, 2011 and 
2010, respectively. We recorded $37 million, $34 million and $43 million as a tax benefit related to stock-based compensation 
in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. 

At December 31, 2012, there was $171 million of compensation expense related to nonvested awards not yet recognized 

which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.6 years.

At December 31, 2012, we had stock-based compensation awards outstanding under a number of stock plans, including our 

2010 Stock Plan. Future grants of awards will be made from the 2010 Stock Plan and not from our prior plans.

Shares issued as a result of stock awards, stock option exercises or conversion of restricted stock unit awards will be funded 

through the issuance of new shares. Of the 41.8 million shares authorized under our stock plans, there were 8.3 million shares 

available for awards under such plans as of December 31, 2012.

Restricted Stock

The 2010 Stock Plan provides for the award of restricted stock awards, restricted stock units and stock appreciation rights to 

our employees, officers, nonemployee directors and consultants. Awards of restricted stock, restricted stock units and stock 

appreciation rights generally are made by the Management Development and Compensation Committee of our Board of 

Directors (MDCC) and are compensatory in nature. These awards vest over a specified period of time as determined by the 

MDCC, generally four years for employee awards and one year for nonemployee directors. Restricted stock awards entitle 

the recipient to full dividend and voting rights beginning on the date of grant. Non-vested shares are restricted as to disposition 

and subject to forfeiture under certain circumstances. At the date of award each share of restricted stock is credited to common 

stock at par value. The fair value of restricted stock, calculated under the intrinsic value method at the date of award, is charged 

to income as compensation expense over the vesting period with a corresponding credit to additional paid-in capital.

Long-Term Performance Plan (LTPP)

In 2004, we established the LTPP, which provides for restricted stock unit awards granted from our stock plans to our senior 

leadership. These awards vest at the end of a three-year performance cycle based upon the achievement of specific pre-

established levels of performance. 

The performance goals for the three outstanding performance cycles at December 31, 2012, are independent of each other 

and based on three metrics, as defined in the award agreements: return on invested capital (ROIC), weighted at 50%; total 

shareholder return (TSR) relative to a peer group, weighted at 25%; and cumulative free cash flow (CFCF), weighted at 25%.

The ultimate award, which is determined at the end of each of the three-year performance cycles, can range from zero to 

200% of the target award and also includes dividend equivalents, which are not included in the table below. Compensation 

expense for the awards is recognized over the performance period based upon the value determined under the intrinsic value 

method for the CFCF and ROIC portions of the award and the Monte Carlo simulation method for the TSR portion of the 

award using historic volatility. Compensation expense for the CFCF and ROIC portions of the awards will be adjusted based

Restricted Stock
The 2010 Stock Plan provides for the award of restricted stock awards, restricted stock units and stock appreciation rights to

Long-Term Performance Plan (LTPP)
In 2004, we established the LTPP, which provides for restricted stock unit awards granted from our stock plans to our senior 
leadership. These awards vest at the end of a three-year performance cycle based upon the achievement of specific pre-
established levels of performance. 

The performance goals for the three outstanding performance cycles at December 31, 2012, are independent of each other

Note 14: Pension and Other Employee Benefits

We have pension plans covering the majority of our employees, including certain employees in foreign countries (Pension 

Benefits). Our primary pension obligations relate to our domestic IRS qualified pension plans. We also provide certain health 

care and life insurance benefits to retired employees and to eligible employees upon retirement through other postretirement 

benefit plans (Other Benefits).

The fair value of plan assets for our domestic and foreign Pension Benefit plans was $16,733 million and $717 million at 

December 31, 2012, respectively, and $14,931 million and $621 million at December 31, 2011, respectively.

We maintain a defined contribution plan that includes a 401(k) plan. Covered employees hired or rehired after January 1, 

2007, are eligible for a Company contribution based on age and service, instead of participating in our pension plans. These 

and other covered employees are eligible to contribute up to a specific percentage of their pay to the 401(k) plan. We match 

the employee’s contribution, generally up to 3% or 4% of the employee’s pay, which is invested in the same way as employee 

contributions.  Total  expense  for  our  match  was  $272  million,  $273  million  and  $275  million  in  2012,  2011  and  2010, 

At December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, there was $12.1 billion and $11.0 billion invested in our defined contribution 

plan, respectively. At December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, $1.0 billion and $1.1 billion of these amounts were invested 

in our stock fund, respectively.

We  also  maintain  additional  contractual  pension  benefits  agreements  for  certain  of  our  executive  officers.  The  liability 

associated with such agreements was $36 million and $35 million at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

Contributions and Benefit Payments

We  may  make  both  required  and  discretionary  contributions  to  our  pension  plans.  Required  contributions  are  primarily 

determined in accordance with the Pension Protection Act (PPA), which amended the Employee Retirement Income Security 

Act of 1974 (ERISA) rules and are affected by the actual return on plan assets and plan funded status. The funding requirements 

under PPA require us to fully fund our pension plans over a rolling seven-year period as determined annually based upon the 

funded status at the beginning of the year. In July 2012, the Surface Transportation Extension act, which is also referred to 

as the Moving ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (STE Act), was passed by Congress and signed by the President. 

The STE Act includes a provision for temporary pension funding relief due to the low interest rate environment. The provision 

reduced our cash funding requirements in 2012. We made required contributions of $740 million, $1,096 million and $1,184 

million in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, to our pension and other postretirement benefit plans. We made discretionary 

contributions of $500 million in 2012 and $750 million in both 2011 and 2010. We periodically evaluate whether to make 

additional discretionary contributions. We expect to make required contributions of approximately $775 million and $25 

million to our pension and other postretirement benefit plans, respectively, in 2013.

Shares exercisable at the corresponding weighted-average exercise price at December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, were 0.9 
million at $31.56, 4.4 million at $38.98 and 6.5 million at $37.23, respectively.

Note 14: Pension and Other Employee Benefits
We have pension plans covering the majority of our employees, including certain employees in foreign countries (Pension 
Benefits). Our primary pension obligations relate to our domestic IRS qualified pension plans. We also provide certain health 
care and life insurance benefits to retired employees and to eligible employees upon retirement through other postretirement 
benefit plans (Other Benefits).

The fair value of plan assets for our domestic and foreign Pension Benefit plans was $16,733 million and $717 million at 
December 31, 2012, respectively, and $14,931 million and $621 million at December 31, 2011, respectively.

We maintain a defined contribution plan that includes a 401(k) plan. Covered employees hired or rehired after January 1, 
2007, are eligible for a Company contribution based on age and service, instead of participating in our pension plans. These 
and other covered employees are eligible to contribute up to a specific percentage of their pay to the 401(k) plan. We match 
the employee’s contribution, generally up to 3% or 4% of the employee’s pay, which is invested in the same way as employee 
contributions.  Total  expense  for  our  match  was  $272  million,  $273  million  and  $275  million  in  2012,  2011  and  2010, 
respectively.

At December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, there was $12.1 billion and $11.0 billion invested in our defined contribution 
plan, respectively. At December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, $1.0 billion and $1.1 billion of these amounts were invested 
in our stock fund, respectively.

We  also  maintain  additional  contractual  pension  benefits  agreements  for  certain  of  our  executive  officers.  The  liability 
associated with such agreements was $36 million and $35 million at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

Contributions and Benefit Payments
We  may  make  both  required  and  discretionary  contributions  to  our  pension  plans.  Required  contributions  are  primarily 
determined in accordance with the Pension Protection Act (PPA), which amended the Employee Retirement Income Security 
Act of 1974 (ERISA) rules and are affected by the actual return on plan assets and plan funded status. The funding requirements 
under PPA require us to fully fund our pension plans over a rolling seven-year period as determined annually based upon the 
funded status at the beginning of the year. In July 2012, the Surface Transportation Extension act, which is also referred to

contributions of $500 million in 2012 and $750 million in both 2011 and 2010. We periodically evaluate whether to make 
additional discretionary contributions. We expect to make required contributions of approximately $775 million and $25 
million to our pension and other postretirement benefit plans, respectively, in 2013.

Weighted-Average Year-End Benefit Obligation Assumptions

        Pension Benefits

        Other Benefits

The weighted-average discount rate for our domestic Pension Benefits plans was 4.15% and 5.00% at December 31, 2012 

and December 31, 2011, respectively. Our foreign Pension Benefits plan assumptions have been included in the Pension 

Benefits assumptions in the table above.

The long-term rate of return on plan assets (ROA) represents the average rate of earnings expected over the long term on the 

assets invested to provide for anticipated future benefit payment obligations. We employ a “building block” approach in 

determining the long-term ROA assumption. Historical markets are studied and long-term relationships between equities and 

fixed income are assessed. Current market factors such as inflation and interest rates are evaluated before long-term capital 

market assumptions are determined. The long-term ROA assumption is also established giving consideration to investment 

diversification, rebalancing and active management of the investment portfolio. Also, historical returns are reviewed to assess 

reasonableness and appropriateness.

In validating the 2012 long-term ROA assumption, we reviewed our pension plan asset performance since 1986. Our average 

actual annual rate of return since 1986 has exceeded our estimated 8.75% assumed return. Based upon these analyses and our 

internal investing targets, we determined our long-term ROA assumption for our domestic pension plans in 2012 was 8.75%, 

consistent with our 2011 assumption. Our domestic pension plans’ actual rates of return were approximately 12%, (1)% and 

11% for 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The difference between the actual rate of return and our long-term ROA assumption

monitored frequently against appropriate benchmarks and tracked to compliance guidelines with the assistance of third party 

performance evaluation tools and metrics.

Consistent with the objective of maximizing return while minimizing risk, multiple investment strategies are employed to 

diversify  risk  such  that  no  single  investment  or  manager  holding  presents  a  significant  exposure  to  the  total  investment 

portfolio. Plan assets are invested in numerous diversified strategies with the intent to minimize correlations. This allows for 

diversification of returns. Plan assets can be invested in funds that track an index and are designed to achieve diversification 

across the related indices. The Plan had $3 billion invested in such funds across 3 indices as of December 31, 2012. Other 

than funds that track an index, no individual investment strategy represented more than 10% of the Plan as of December 31, 

2012.  Further,  within  each  separate  account  strategy,  guidelines  are  established  which  set  forth  the  list  of  authorized 

investments, the typical portfolio characteristics and diversification required by limiting the amount that can be invested by 

sector, country and issuer. 

The Plan’s investments are stated at fair value. Investments in equity securities (common and preferred) are valued at the last 

reported sales price when an active market exists. Investments in fixed-income securities are generally valued using methods 

based upon market transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities which are generally 

recognized by institutional traders. Investments in private equity funds and private real estate funds are estimated at fair market 

value  which  primarily  utilizes  net  asset  values  reported  by  the  investment  manager  or  fund  administrator.  We  review 

independently  appraised  values,  audited  financial  statements  and  additional  pricing  information  to  evaluate  the  net  asset 

values. For the very limited group of securities and other assets for which market quotations are not readily available or for 

which  the  above  valuation  procedures  are  deemed  not  to  reflect  fair  value,  additional  information  is  obtained  from  the 

investment manager and evaluated internally to determine whether any adjustments are required to reflect fair value.

The long-term ROA assumptions for foreign Pension Benefits plans are based on the asset allocations and the economic 
environment prevailing in the locations where the Pension Benefits plans reside. Foreign pension assets do not make up a 
significant portion of the total assets for all of our Pension Benefits plans.

The effect of a 1% increase or (decrease) in the assumed health care trend rate for each future year for the aggregate of service 
cost and interest cost is less than $1 million and for the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation is $10 million or $(9) 
million, respectively.

Plan Assets
Substantially all our domestic Pension Benefit Plan (Plan) assets, which consist of investments in cash and cash equivalents, 
publicly traded U.S. and international equity securities, private equity funds, private real estate funds, fixed-income securities, 
commingled funds and other investments such as insurance contracts, derivatives and repurchase agreements, are held in a 
master trust, which was established for the investment of assets of our Company-sponsored retirement plans. The assets of 
the  master  trust  are  overseen  by  our  Investment  Committee  comprised  of  members  of  senior  management  drawn  from 
appropriate diversified levels of the executive management team.

The Investment Committee is responsible for setting the policy that provides the framework for management of the Plan 
assets. In accordance with its responsibilities and charter, the Investment Committee meets on a regular basis to review the 
performance of the Plan assets and compliance with the investment policy. The policy sets forth an investment structure for 
managing Plan assets, including setting the asset allocation ranges, which are expected to provide an appropriate level of 
overall diversification and total investment return over the long term while maintaining sufficient liquidity to pay the benefits 
of the Plan. Asset allocation ranges are set to produce the highest return on investment taking into account investment risks 
that are prudent and reasonable given prevailing market conditions. In developing the asset allocation ranges, third party asset 
allocation studies are periodically performed that consider the current and expected positions of the plan assets and funded 
status. Based on these studies and other appropriate information, the Investment Committee establishes asset allocation ranges 
taking into account acceptable risk targets and associated returns.

The investment policy asset allocation ranges for the Plan, as set by the Investment Committee, for the year ended December 31, 
2012 were as follows:

Asset Category
U.S. equities
International equities
Fixed-income securities
Cash and cash equivalents
Private equity and private real estate
Other (including absolute return funds)

25% - 35%
15% - 25%
25% - 40%
1% - 10%
3% - 10%
5% - 20%

The Investment Committee appoints the investment fiduciary, who is responsible for making investment decisions within the 
framework of the Investment Policy and for supervising the internal pension investment team. The pension investment team 
is comprised of experienced financial managers, who are all employees of the Company. The investment fiduciary reports 
back to the Investment Committee. During times of unusual market conditions, the investment fiduciary may seek authorization 
from the Investment Committee to change the investing allocation ranges to reasonably limit excessive volatility or other 
undesirable consequences.

Taking  into  account  the  asset  allocation  ranges,  the  investment  fiduciary  determines  the  specific  allocation of  the  Plan’s 
investments within various asset classes. The Plan utilizes select investment strategies which are executed through separate 
account or fund structures with external investment managers who demonstrate experience and expertise in the appropriate 
asset classes and styles. The selection of investment managers is done with careful evaluation of all aspects of performance 
and risk, due diligence of internal operations and controls, reputation, systems evaluation and a review of investment managers' 
policies and processes. The Plan also utilizes funds that track an index and are highly liquid. Investment performance is

(14)  Private equity funds are predominantly invested in the U.S. and Western Europe.
(15)  The Plan participates in a securities lending program with the Trustee that is limited to a maximum of $15 million as of December 31, 2012. The 
program allows the Trustee to loan securities, which are assets of the Plan, to approved brokers (Borrowers). The Trustee requires Borrowers, pursuant 
to a security loan agreement, to deliver collateral to secure each loan. The Plan bears the risk of loss with respect to the unfavorable change in fair 
value of the invested cash collateral. The market value of securities on loan is reflected in the various asset categories above. Loaned securities were 
predominantly U.S. equities, International equities, corporate bonds and U.S. Government bonds or treasuries. Cash collateral obligations of $15 million 
and $63 million were received for securities on loan as of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The cash collateral obligations 
have decreased and will continue to decrease until the Plan exits the program. Cash collateral was invested in a separately maintained and managed 
cash collateral investment account. 

(16)  As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, this category included $6 million and $8 million of cash on deposit with a broker for future margin

(1)  The actual return on plan assets for assets still held at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was $(32) million and $1 million, respectively.

The Plan limits the use of derivatives through direct or separate account investments such that the derivatives used are liquid 

and able to be readily valued in the market. Derivative usage in separate account structures is limited to hedging purposes or 

to gain market exposure in a non-speculative manner. The fair market value of the Plan’s derivatives through direct or separate 

account investments was less than $1 million as of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

In addition, assets are held in trust for non-U.S. Pension Benefits plans, primarily in the U.K. and Canada, which are governed 

locally in accordance with specific jurisdictional requirements. These assets are overseen by local management in Canada 

and by trustees with a combination of members representing plan participants and local management in the U.K. Investments 

in the non-U.S. Pension Benefits plans consist primarily of fixed-income securities and equity securities and had a fair market 

value of $717 million and $621 million at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

These investments are valued using quoted prices in active markets (Level 1) as well as significant observable inputs (Level 

2). Investments with significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) are immaterial in the non-U.S. Pension Benefits plans.

The fair market value of assets related to our Other Benefits was $408 million and $396 million as of December 31, 2012 and 

December 31,  2011,  respectively.  These  assets  included  $179  million  and  $172  million  at  December 31,  2012  and 

December 31, 2011, respectively, that were invested in the master trust described above and are therefore invested in the same 

assets described above. The remaining investments are held within Voluntary Employees’ Beneficiary Association (VEBA) 

trusts. The assets of the VEBA trusts are also overseen by the Investment Committee and managed by the same investment 

fiduciary that manages the master trust’s investments. These assets are generally invested in mutual funds, and are valued 

primarily using quoted prices in active markets (Level 1) as well as significant observable inputs (Level 2). There were no 

Level 3 investments in the VEBA trusts at December 31, 2012 or December 31, 2011.

The table below details assets by category for our VEBA trusts. These assets consist primarily of publicly-traded equity 

securities and publicly-traded fixed-income securities.

These investments are valued using quoted prices in active markets (Level 1) as well as significant observable inputs (Level

We are subject to income taxes in the U.S. and numerous foreign jurisdictions. During 2012, we received final approval from 
the IRS and the U.S. Congressional Joint Committee on Taxation of an IRS Appeals Division settlement for the 2006–2008 
IRS examination cycle (2012 Tax Settlement). As a result, our unrecognized tax benefits decreased by approximately $24 
million, inclusive of $2 million of interest, all of which increased our income from continuing operations. In 2011, we received 
final approval from the IRS and the U.S. Congressional Joint Committee on Taxation of a Minimum Tax Refund claim for 
the 2006–2008 IRS examination cycle, which related to items not included in the 2012 Tax Settlement (2011 Tax Settlement). 
As a result, our unrecognized tax benefits decreased by approximately $60 million, inclusive of  $14 million of interest, all 
of which increased our income from continuing operations. In 2010, we received final approval from the IRS and the U.S. 
Congressional Joint Committee on Taxation of a Minimum Tax Refund claim for the 1998–2005 IRS examination cycle (2010 
Tax  Settlement). As  a  result,  our  unrecognized  tax  benefits  from  continuing  and  discontinued  operations  decreased  by 
approximately  $281  million,  which  decreased  our  tax  expense  by  $259  million,  including  $170  million  from  continuing 
operations and $89 million from discontinued operations. The decrease in tax expense in 2010 included $56 million related 
to interest.

We are currently under IRS examination for the 2009 and 2010 tax years. The issues under audit include the R&D tax credit 
and the timing and amount of certain deductions. We expect to receive the IRS Revenue Agent's report for the 2009 and 2010 
cycles in the first quarter of 2013. The IRS selected us to participate in the Compliance Assurance Process (CAP) program 
for 2011–2013. We are also under audit by multiple state and foreign tax authorities.

Domestic income from continuing operations before taxes was $2,630 million, $2,574 million and $2,701 million in 2012, 
2011 and 2010, respectively, and foreign income (loss) from continuing operations before taxes was $149 million, $86 million 
and $(267) million in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. At December 31, 2012, foreign earnings of approximately $420 
million  have  been  retained  by  foreign  subsidiaries  for  reinvestment.  No  provision  has  been  made  for  deferred  taxes  on 
undistributed earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries as these earnings have been indefinitely invested. Determination of the amount 
of unrecognized deferred tax liability on these undistributed earnings is not practicable because of the complexity of laws and 
regulations,  the  varying  tax  treatment  of  alternative  repatriation  scenarios,  and  the  variation  due  to  multiple  potential 
assumptions relating to the timing of any future repatriation. Total federal and foreign tax payments, net of refunds and credits, 
were $839 million, $426 million and $337 million in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

We believe that our income tax reserves are adequate; however, amounts asserted by taxing authorities could be greater or 
less than amounts accrued and reflected in our consolidated balance sheets. Accordingly, we could record adjustments to the 
amounts for federal, foreign and state tax-related liabilities in the future as we revise estimates or we settle or otherwise resolve 
the underlying matters.

The balance of unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2012, exclusive of interest, was $129 million, the majority of which 
would affect earnings if recognized. The balance of unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2011, exclusive of interest, 
was $167 million, the majority of which would affect earnings if recognized. During 2012, the $38 million net decrease in 
the balance of our unrecognized tax benefits is primarily a result of substantial completion of audits of certain years in certain 
jurisdictions and the 2012 Tax Settlement. During 2011, the $21 million decrease to our unrecognized tax benefits was primarily 
due to the 2011 Tax Settlement. 

We accrue interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in tax expense. During 2012, primarily as a result of the 2012 Tax 

Settlement, we recorded $2 million of income related to interest which, net of the federal tax expense, was $1 million. In the 

twelve months ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, we recorded $14 million of interest income 

and $90 million of interest income which, net of the federal tax, was $9 million and $57 million of interest income in 2011 

and 2010, respectively. At December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had $17 million of interest accrued related to 

unrecognized tax benefits, which, net of the federal tax benefit, was approximately $11 million. In the ordinary course of 

business, we may take new tax positions that could increase or decrease our unrecognized tax benefits in future periods.

A rollforward of our unrecognized tax benefits was as follows: 

(In millions)

Unrecognized tax benefits, beginning of year

Additions based on current year tax positions

Additions based on prior year tax positions

Reductions and settlements based on prior year tax positions

Unrecognized tax benefits, end of year

It is reasonably possible that within the next 12 months our unrecognized tax benefits, exclusive of interest, may decrease by 

up to $75 million, as a result of resolving various issues in the currently open cycles, including the R&D tax credit.  We expect 

that the majority of the decrease would not impact earnings because the resolution on the issues is anticipated to be consistent 

with the benefit previously recognized. 

We generally account for our state income tax expense as a deferred contract cost, as we can generally recover this expense 

through the pricing of our products and services to the U.S. Government. We include this deferred amount in contracts in 

process, net until allocated to our contracts, which generally occurs upon payment or when otherwise agreed as allocable with 

the U.S. Government. Net state income tax expense allocated to our contracts was $78 million, $16 million and $59 million 

in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. We include state income tax expense allocated to our contracts in administrative and 

selling expenses.

million was generated in the U.K. We believe that we will have sufficient taxable income to realize this deferred tax asset, as 

any net operating loss generated in the U.K. may be carried forward indefinitely.

The federal tax expense (benefit) related to discontinued operations was $1 million, $2 million and $(110) million in 2012, 

2011 and 2010, respectively.

We are subject to income taxes in the U.S. and numerous foreign jurisdictions. During 2012, we received final approval from 

the IRS and the U.S. Congressional Joint Committee on Taxation of an IRS Appeals Division settlement for the 2006–2008 

IRS examination cycle (2012 Tax Settlement). As a result, our unrecognized tax benefits decreased by approximately $24 

million, inclusive of $2 million of interest, all of which increased our income from continuing operations. In 2011, we received 

final approval from the IRS and the U.S. Congressional Joint Committee on Taxation of a Minimum Tax Refund claim for 

the 2006–2008 IRS examination cycle, which related to items not included in the 2012 Tax Settlement (2011 Tax Settlement).

Segment total net sales and operating income generally include intersegment sales and profit recorded at cost plus a specified 
fee, which may differ from what the selling entity would be able to obtain on sales to external customers. Corporate and 
Eliminations  includes  corporate  expenses  and  intersegment  sales  and  profit  eliminations.  Corporate  expenses  represent 
unallocated costs and certain other corporate costs not considered part of management’s evaluation of reportable segment 
operating performance.

During the three months ended April 1, 2012, we completed the disposal or abandonment of the remaining individual assets 
of our former turbo-prop commuter aircraft portfolio, Raytheon Airline Aviation Services (RAAS), and all operations have 
ceased. As a result, we have reported the results of RAAS, which were formerly included in Corporate and Eliminations, as 
a discontinued operation for all periods presented.

We must calculate our pension and other postretirement benefits (PRB) costs under both Financial Accounting Standards 

(FAS) requirements under GAAP and U.S. Government cost accounting standards (CAS). GAAP outlines the methodology 

used  to  determine  pension  expense  or  income  for  financial  reporting  purposes,  which  is  not  indicative  of  the  funding 

requirements for pension and PRB plans that we determine by other factors. CAS prescribes the allocation to and recovery 

of pension and other PRB costs on U.S. Government contracts. The results of each segment only include pension and PRB 

expense as determined under CAS. The CAS requirements for pension costs and its calculation methodology differ from the 

FAS requirements and calculation methodology. As a result, while both FAS and CAS use long-term assumptions in their 

calculation methodologies, each method results in different calculated amounts of pension and PRB cost. The FAS/CAS 

Adjustment, which is reported as a separate line in our segment results above, represents the difference between our pension 

and PRB expense or income under FAS in accordance with GAAP and our pension and PRB expense under CAS.

The components of operating income related to Corporate and Eliminations were as follows:

We must calculate our pension and other postretirement benefits (PRB) costs under both Financial Accounting Standards 
(FAS) requirements under GAAP and U.S. Government cost accounting standards (CAS). GAAP outlines the methodology 
used  to  determine  pension  expense  or  income  for  financial  reporting  purposes,  which  is  not  indicative  of  the  funding 
requirements for pension and PRB plans that we determine by other factors. CAS prescribes the allocation to and recovery 
of pension and other PRB costs on U.S. Government contracts. The results of each segment only include pension and PRB 
expense as determined under CAS. The CAS requirements for pension costs and its calculation methodology differ from the 
FAS requirements and calculation methodology. As a result, while both FAS and CAS use long-term assumptions in their 
calculation methodologies, each method results in different calculated amounts of pension and PRB cost. The FAS/CAS 
Adjustment, which is reported as a separate line in our segment results above, represents the difference between our pension 
and PRB expense or income under FAS in accordance with GAAP and our pension and PRB expense under CAS.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management has conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer 

and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as 

defined in Rules 13a–15(e) and 15d–15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of December 31, 2012.

assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of 

controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and 

instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.

Raytheon’s website offers financial information and facts about

Adjusted Income and Adjusted EPS are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and may not

should be considered supplemental to and not a substitute for financial information prepared in accor-

insights into the Company’s underlying business performance. We also believe that they allow investors to 
benefit from being able to assess our operating performance in the context of how our principal customer, 
the U.S. Government, allows us to recover pension and postretirement benefits (PRB) costs and to better 
compare our operating performance to others in the industry on that same basis.
