Executive summary

It also provides defence technology, engineering and mission support services to government agencies. The company operates shipyards in Virginia and Mississippi and a technology business named Mission Technologies, and the United States government is its principal customer.

Revenue comes mostly from long-term government contracts, recognised as ships are built and as services are delivered. Over the last twelve months it was $13.2 billion, growing at 5.4% a year across the last three years. The operating margin is 5.3%, and the business earns a profit of 7% on the capital invested in it. It has net debt of 2.6 times EBITDA. A dividend is paid, with a yield of 2.0%.

StocksXray gives Huntington Ingalls Industries, Inc. an X-Ray Score of 45 out of 100 (medium confidence), ahead of 26% of the S&P 500 stocks in its sector. Its strongest lens is dividends (62) and its weakest is profitability (22).

Our fair value blend is $355.24 (range $342.41 to $366.43). At $272.00 the stock trades 23% below that blend, so the label is "Fair" with medium model uncertainty. Fair value is a range, not a price target.

How to read this report

Every number comes from SEC filings, end-of-day prices and the StocksXray models described on the methodology page. The X-Ray Score ranks each metric against the company's own sector. Fair value blends three models and carries a typical error of about 40%, so treat it as a range. Analyst ratings, price targets and earnings-call summaries are not part of this report. Educational research, not financial advice; read the disclaimer.
