RTX Corp’s Aftermarket Engine Boom Is Driving Margins Higher, But Can It Keep Outrunning Tariff Fears—What’s the Impact, Valuation Outlook & its 5 Key Catalysts ?
RTX’s Q2F25 print delivered strong 9% organic revenue growth and 12% YoY segment operating profit expansion, driven by resilient aftermarket (+16% YoY), steady OE strength (+7%), and accelerating defense (+6%), reinforcing the durability of its diversified portfolio. Backlog reached a record $236B (+15% YoY), with book-to-bill at 1.86x, signaling sustained demand across commercial and military segments. Collins and Pratt showed solid momentum despite tariff pressure, with Pratt aftermarket up 19% YoY and MRO throughput +22%, supported by early GTF Advantage cut-ins and Hot Section+ retrofit prep. Raytheon’s EBIT rose 14% YoY, led by international Patriot, NASAMS, and SPY-6, with localization strategies boosting allied procurement positioning. While RTX cut its FY25 EPS guide to $5.80–$5.95 (from $6.00–$6.15) due to tariffs, it reaffirmed $7–$7.5B FCF, citing H2 catalysts like Pratt recovery and F135 milestones. Structural growth tailwinds in NATO/Indo-Pac defense, commercial fleet aging, and rising content-per-visit support its multi-year growth algorithm, while capital deployment remains disciplined with $2.6B in divestitures and a dividend hike. With GTF monetization levers, FMS acceleration, and normalized FCF potential >$10B post-2026, the equity case remains intact—but can RTX sustain margin lift and cash conversion while tariff volatility and geopolitical frictions continue to shadow valuation re-rating potential?
