Founded in 1995 but tracing its origins way back to 1912, Lockheed Martin is a global aerospace, defense, and security company involved in building fighter jets, precision weapons, and missile systems, among others. Its market cap currently stands at $144.7 billion, and it has been working closely with the US government for decades, positioning itself as a reliable partner.

Further, earnings jumped to $5.80 per share from just $2.22 per share in the year-ago period, as it just missed the consensus estimate of $5.80 per share.
