GAAP EPS was $2.39, up 20%, and non-GAAP EPS2 was $3.21, up 13% versus prior year.
“The L3Harris team delivered solid bookings, margins, and bottom-line results in the quarter, overcoming revenue headwinds due to supply chain delays and award timing. And in spite of unprecedented global supply chain disruptions that are reducing our organic revenue growth guidance for the year, we’re positioned to meet our earnings and cash flow commitments,” said Christopher E. Kubasik, Vice Chair and Chief Executive Officer. "We ultimately view these pandemic-related impacts as temporary and remain focused on creating value for our stakeholders over the long term."

Third quarter revenue decreased 5% versus prior year primarily due to strategic divestitures, ISR aircraft award timing in Integrated Mission Systems, and supply chain-related constraints within Communication Systems, which also contributed to a 1% decline on an organic basis. At the segment level, the organic revenue decline was driven by Communication Systems and Integrated Mission Systems, down 5% and 3%, respectively, partially offset by 3% growth in Space and Airborne Systems and 1% growth in Aviation Systems. Funded book-to-bill3 was 1.07 for the quarter and 1.06 year-to-date.
Third quarter net income margin expanded 170 bps and adjusted EBIT margin expanded 170 bps to 19.6% versus prior year. GAAP EPS increased 20% versus prior year driven by e3 performance, integration benefits, cost management, and a lower share count, along with lower acquisition-related amortization, net of supply chain impacts. Non-GAAP EPS increased 13% versus prior year driven by e3 performance, integration benefits, cost management, and a lower share count, more than offsetting supply chain and divestiture-related impacts.

Third quarter revenue decreased 6% versus prior year and 5% on an organic basis due to product delivery delays from supply chain-related constraints mainly within Tactical Communications, lower volume on legacy unmanned platforms in Broadband Communications, delivery timing within Integrated Vision Solutions, and contract roll-offs in Global Communications Solutions. The decline from these drivers was partially offset by strong radio sales in Public Safety. Third quarter operating income decreased 1% to $271 million, and operating margin expanded 130 bps to 26.3% versus prior year from operational excellence, including program performance, favorable mix, and integration benefits, net of supply chain impacts and higher R&D investments.
Segment funded book-to-bill was 1.20 and 1.13 for the quarter and year-to-date, respectively.
Tactical Communications received several key orders that strengthen its global leadership, including:
•$132 million and $72 million, majority share, initial full-rate production awards under the U.S. Army's $12.7 billion HMS Manpack and $3.9 billion two-channel Leader radio IDIQ contracts, respectively, reflecting key milestones in the Army's multi-year modernization strategy
•$131 million to provide modernized software-defined vehicular and dismount radios to a country in the Middle East, reflecting a key revenue synergy for the company
•$64 million for the continued supply of secure, resilient Falcon III® radios to a European country
The Integrated Vision Solutions business received key awards from the U.S. Army for its next-generation systems, including a $100 million order for the Enhanced Night Vision Goggle – Binocular (ENVG-B) system, marking the second delivery order received under the $442 million ENVG-B Program of Record. L3Harris also was awarded a $92 million, four-year contract to provide advanced helmet-mounted image technology in support of the Aviator's Night Vision Imaging System III program.
Within Broadband Communications, L3Harris received a $36 million follow-on award to provide advanced Manned-Unmanned Teaming airborne data link systems to the U.S. Army and international parties, increasing inception-to-date awards on the Apache platform to over $250 million.

Third quarter revenue decreased 21% versus prior year due to the divestitures of the Military Training and Combat Propulsion Systems businesses, and increased 1% on an organic basis driven by recovering training and avionics product sales within the commercial aerospace business. Organic growth from these drivers was reduced by flat sales in Mission Networks and lower Fuzing and Ordnance Systems volume due to contract roll-offs and delayed awards within Defense Aviation. Third quarter GAAP and non-GAAP operating income decreased 10% and 13%, respectively, to $90 million primarily due to divestitures. Third quarter GAAP and non-GAAP operating margin expanded 180 bps and 140 bps, respectively, to 14.4% versus prior year as expense management, commercial aerospace recovery, and integration benefits more than offset divestiture-related headwinds.
Segment funded book-to-bill was 1.10 and 0.94 for the quarter and year-to-date, respectively.
Mission Networks recorded more than $175 million in orders on long-term air traffic management contracts, including for the FAA Telecommunications Infrastructure and Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast programs. L3Harris also leveraged its incumbency with the FAA in order to capture a 10-year, potential $343 million contract to modernize Airservices Australia’s enterprise-wide telecommunications network, with an initial award for the planning and design phase.
Defense Aviation received several awards for precision weapon systems and components, including a multi-vendor, $46 billion, 10-year IDIQ contract to provide future advanced weapons systems to the U.S. Air Force leveraging digital engineering, agile processes and open-systems architecture. In addition, the company received a $23 million initial full-rate production award under the U.S. Navy's Advanced Low-cost Munitions Ordnance program, increasing inception-to-date development and production awards to more than $250 million.
Demand for L3Harris' commercial full-flight simulators increased in the quarter with orders from both domestic and international airlines.

COVID
Attempts to contain and reduce the spread of COVID, such as mandatory closures, “shelter-in-place” orders and travel and quarantine restrictions, have caused significant disruptions and adverse effects on the U.S. and global economies, including impacts to supply chains, customer demand, workforce, international trade and capital markets. L3Harris' response has involved increasing its focus on keeping its employees safe while striving to maintain continuity of operations, meet customer commitments and support suppliers. For example, the company instituted numerous types of precautions, protocols and other arrangements designed to protect employees from COVID infections and to comply with applicable regulations, including mandating its U.S.-based employees be fully vaccinated against COVID by December 8, 2021 to comply with President Biden’s executive order, and the company has also maintained an active dialog, and in some cases developed plans, with key suppliers in an effort to mitigate supply chain risks or otherwise minimize the potential impact from those risks. The U.S. Government response to COVID has included identifying the Defense Industrial Base as a Critical Infrastructure Sector and enhancing cash flow and liquidity for the Defense Industrial Base, such as by increasing progress payments and accelerating contract awards, which enabled the company to keep its U.S. production facilities largely operational in support of national security commitments to U.S. Government customers (as part of the Defense Industrial Base) and to accelerate payments to small business suppliers, which it expects to continue while the U.S. Government’s responsive actions remain in effect.
Although the company believes that a large percentage of its revenue, earnings and cash flow that is derived from sales to the U.S. Government, whether directly or through prime contractors, will be relatively predictable, in part due to the U.S. Government’s responsive actions described above, the company's commercial and international businesses are at a higher risk of adverse COVID-related impacts, and the company cannot eliminate all potential impacts to its business from supply chain risks, such as longer lead times and shortages of electronics and other components. For example, while the company has started to see a recovery in the commercial aviation market, the severe decline in global air traffic from travel restrictions and the resulting downturn in the commercial aviation market and its impact on customer operations has significantly reduced demand for flight training, flight simulators and commercial avionics products in the company's Aviation Systems segment.
The company’s 2021 guidance reflects the company’s current expectations and assumptions regarding COVID-related impacts, including on the U.S. and global economies. These assumptions continue to include a measured assessment of the downturn in the commercial aerospace business and in demand for public safety solutions, as well as additional potential risks from facility shutdowns, supply chain disruptions and international activity weakness. The company’s current expectations and assumptions could change, which could negatively affect the company’s outlook. The extent of these disruptions and impacts, including on the company's ability to perform under U.S. Government and other contracts within agreed timeframes and ultimately on its results of operations and cash flows, will depend on future developments, including COVID-related impacts and associated containment and mitigation actions taken by governmental authorities and consequences thereof, including COVID vaccine mandates, and global air traffic demand and governmental subsidies to airlines, and potential impacts to the company’s business from supply chain risks, all of which are uncertain and unpredictable, could exacerbate other risks described in the company’s filings with the SEC and could materially adversely impact the company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Non-GAAP Measures
This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including earnings per diluted share from continuing operations (“EPS”), adjusted earnings before interest and taxes (“EBIT”), adjusted EBIT margin and adjusted free cash flow for the third quarters and first three quarters of 2021 and 2020; organic revenue growth for the company and for its Space and Airborne Systems, Communication Systems and Aviation Systems segments for the third quarter and first three quarters of 2021; and segment operating income and margin for the Aviation Systems segment for the third quarters and first three quarters of 2021 and 2020; in each case, adjusted for certain costs, charges, expenses, losses or other amounts as set forth in the reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures included in the financial statement tables accompanying this press release. A “non-GAAP financial measure” is generally defined as a numerical measure of a company’s historical or future performance that excludes or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments, so as to be different from the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). L3Harris management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with the GAAP financial measures, provide information that is useful to investors in understanding period-over-period operating results separate and apart from items that may, or could, have a disproportionately positive or negative impact on results in any particular period. L3Harris management also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures enhance the ability of investors to analyze L3Harris business trends and to understand L3Harris performance. In addition, L3Harris may utilize non-GAAP financial measures as guides in forecasting, budgeting and long-term planning processes and to measure operating performance for some management compensation purposes. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP. This press release also contains forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures, including expected EPS, adjusted EBIT margin, adjusted free cash flow and organic revenue growth for full-year 2021, but a


reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to comparable GAAP measures is not available without unreasonable effort because of inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying the comparable GAAP measures and the applicable adjustments and other amounts that would be necessary for such a reconciliation, including due to potentially high variability, complexity and low visibility as to the applicable adjustments and other amounts, which may, or could, have a disproportionately positive or negative impact on the company's future GAAP results, such as business divestiture-related gains and losses, and other unusual gains and losses, or their probable significance and extent of tax deductibility. The variability of the applicable adjustments and other amounts is unpredictable, and it is possible for them to significantly adversely impact the company’s future GAAP results.

L3HARRIS TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
CY'21 Third Quarter Summary
RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES AND REGULATION G DISCLOSURE

To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we provide additional measures of income from continuing operations per diluted common share, net income, net income margin, net cash provided by operating activities, revenue and segment operating income (loss), adjusted to exclude certain costs, charges, expenses and losses or other amounts. L3Harris management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with the GAAP financial measures, provide information that is useful to investors in understanding period-over-period operating results separate and apart from items that may, or could, have a disproportionately positive or negative impact on results in any particular period. L3Harris management also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures enhance the ability of investors to analyze L3Harris’ business trends and to understand L3Harris’ performance. In addition, L3Harris may utilize non-GAAP financial measures as guides in its forecasting, budgeting, and long-term planning processes and to measure operating performance for some management compensation purposes. Any analysis of non-GAAP financial measures should be used only in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures with the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP follows:
