WALTHAM, Mass., July 23, 2009 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Raytheon Company (NYSE: RTN) reported second quarter 2009 income from continuing operations of $504 million, up 17 percent compared to $432 million in the second quarter 2008. EPS from continuing operations for the second quarter 2009 was $1.24, up 25 percent compared to $0.99 in the second quarter 2008.

"We are pleased with the Company's continued, solid performance and strong financial position," said William H. Swanson, Raytheon's Chairman and CEO. "We are well positioned domestically and internationally on a broad base of programs which create long-term shareholder value."

Net sales for the second quarter 2009 were $6.1 billion, up from $5.9 billion in the second quarter 2008.

Operating cash flow from continuing operations in the second quarter 2009 was $512 million compared to $767 million for the second quarter 2008, primarily due to the timing of $395 million of cash contributions made to the Company's pension plans in the second quarter of 2009.

In the second quarter 2009 the Company repurchased 6.6 million shares of common stock for $300 million, as part of the Company's previously announced share repurchase program. Year-to-date 2009, the Company repurchased 13.4 million shares of common stock for $600 million.

The Company ended the second quarter 2009 with $96 million of net debt. Net debt is defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents.

The Company reported total bookings for the second quarter 2009 of $7.6 billion compared to $6.0 billion in the second quarter 2008. The Company ended the second quarter 2009 with a backlog of $37.3 billion compared to $38.9 billion at the end of 2008 and $37.5 billion at the end of the second quarter 2008. Due to a change in Missile Defense Agency priorities, on June 10, 2009 the Kinetic Energy Interceptor (KEI) program was terminated for convenience, resulting in a $2.4 billion reduction of the Company's backlog at the end of the second quarter 2009. Bookings during the second quarter of 2009 largely offset the impact of the KEI program.

Integrated Defense Systems (IDS) had second quarter 2009 net sales of $1,335 million, up 6 percent compared to $1,257 million in the second quarter 2008, primarily due to growth on international Patriot programs.

As expected, the change in operating income was primarily due to contract mix, driven by the completion of certain programs in 2008.

During the quarter, IDS booked $877 million to provide advanced Patriot air and missile defense capability for several domestic and international customers, including the U.S. Army, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Taiwan and Kuwait.

    * In the second quarter of 2009, Kinetic Energy Interceptor (KEI), a
    developmental program with the Missile Defense Agency (MDA), was
    terminated for convenience, which resulted in a backlog adjustment of
    approximately $2.4 billion at Missile Systems.  The program was cancelled
    by the MDA due to a change in missile defense priorities.  We expect that
    the change in focus to "early intercept" will lead to additional
    opportunities for a number of our products and technologies, including
    Standard Missile-3.  Total backlog for Missile Systems and the total
    Company at December 31, 2008 above are presented unadjusted. For
    comparability, total backlog for Missile Systems and the total Company
    without KEI would have been $7,572 million and $36,519 million,
    respectively, at December 31, 2008.

    *  Working capital (excluding pension and taxes) is a summation of
    changes in: accounts receivable, net, contracts in process and advance
    payments and billings in excess of costs incurred, inventories, prepaid
    expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued employee
    compensation, and other accrued expenses from the Statements of Cash
    Flows.

    Preliminary Return on Invested Capital Non-GAAP Financial Measure
    Second Quarter 2009



    We define Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) as income from continuing
    operations plus after-tax net interest expense plus one-third of operating
    lease expense after-tax (estimate of interest portion of operating lease
    expense) divided by average invested capital after capitalizing operating
    leases (operating lease expense times a multiplier of 8), adding financial
    guarantees less net investment in Discontinued Operations, and adding back
    the impact of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 158,
    Employers' Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement
    Plans (SFAS No. 158).  ROIC is not a measure of financial performance
    under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and may not be
    defined and calculated by other companies in the same manner.  ROIC should
    be considered supplemental to and not a substitute for financial
    information prepared in accordance with GAAP. We use ROIC as a measure of
    efficiency and effectiveness of our use of capital and as an element of
    management compensation.
