Description: HII Huntington Ingalls January 04, 2026

Huntington Ingalls Industries (HII) is the U.S. Navy’s primary shipbuilder, designing, constructing, overhauling, and repairing both non-nuclear (amphibious assault ships, surface combatants, Coast Guard cutters) and nuclear-powered platforms (aircraft carriers, submarines). The firm operates through three segments-Ingalls, Newport News, and Mission Technologies-and also supplies C5ISR, AI-driven decision tools, cyber-electronic warfare, and autonomous systems to support fleet sustainment.

Key quantitative drivers: (1) Backlog ≈ $41 billion at FY 2024 end, providing multi-year revenue visibility; (2) Free-cash-flow conversion ≈ 45% of operating cash, underpinning dividend sustainability; (3) U.S. defense spending outlook-annual FY 2025 defense budget projected to rise ~3% YoY, with the Navy earmarking >$15 billion for new ship construction, directly feeding HII’s order pipeline. Sensitivity to federal budget cycles and ship-yard labor constraints remains a material risk.
