# Northrop Grumman Reports $16.4B Awards

Northrop Grumman reported **$16.4 billion in third-quarter 2026 net awards**, bringing its backlog to a record **$109.6 billion**. The company also raised its 2026 adjusted EPS outlook while maintaining its sales guidance. Reported awards include work associated with the Sentinel, Virginia-class submarine, and F-35 programs, which may support subcontracting opportunities; the signal reports company results, not a new solicitation or bid deadline.

- Suppliers and subcontractors can assess potential work tied to the Sentinel, Virginia-class submarine, and F-35 programs, while recognizing that the signal does not identify specific open opportunities.
- Contractors should account for the funding, supply-chain, and execution risks identified in the report when evaluating potential program-related work.
- The record backlog and higher earnings outlook provide an indicator of Northrop Grumman’s reported business position, but do not establish a new government procurement requirement or award timeline.
