Page 1 Investor Letter 1Q 2022 April 28, 2022
Refer to endnotes on page 20 Page 2 As an agile and performance-focused organization, we continue to look for opportunities to strengthen our engagement with all stakeholders. With that in mind, I’d like to introduce our first quarterly Investor Letter, designed to provide enhanced insight into our operating performance and financial results prior to our conference call. This letter replaces the prepared remarks made during the call, our earnings release and webcast slides. Given the new approach, we will host a Q&A focused conference call tomorrow, Friday, April 29 at 8:30 a.m. ET. The elevated threat environment we discussed on our last several calls became more evident on February 24. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine highlights the risks sovereign nations face and it further validates the need for the United States and our allies, as well as L3Harris, to consistently invest in capabilities to address emerging threats. With the global impacts looming, and after a 165-day Continuing Resolution (CR), the U.S. Congress finalized the GFY22 national defense budget, inline with our expectation in both timing and amount. The 6% topline increase supports funding for many of our programs from responsive satellites to resilient communications. This momentum carried into the U.S. President’s request for a 4% increase in the GFY23 budget, consistent with our longer-term outlook of low to mid-single-digit revenue growth. The requested budget enables the funding of both existing and new technologies across domains including space, sea, and cyber-based programs, along with integrated networking capabilities, though it is still challenged by the upward pressure of inflation. We now await the appropriations process and will monitor financial risks of a potential GFY23 CR later this year. We expect these “leading indicators” for budgets to ultimately support sustainable long-term revenue growth, resulting from: 1) driving innovation with internal and external investments; 2) selectively “priming” more programs; and 3) expanding our international revenue, all of which are gaining traction. Accordingly, we view near-term revenue pressures from supply chain disruptions and a slower contracting environment as transitory. Our first quarter results are consistent with our prior guidance of a back-half 2022 ramp in revenue and margins. Revenue declined 10% and 5% organically1 from continued supply chain disruptions, award timing and airborne program transitions. Segment operating margin2 declined 40 basis points primarily due to supply chain disruptions. EPS of $2.44 was up given the absence of non-recurring items and non-GAAP EPS2 of $3.12 was down due to the decline in revenue and margins, partially offset by tax rate favorability and a share count decline of 6% year-over- year from our ongoing share repurchase activity. We also reported cash flow from operating activities of $39 million and adjusted free cash flow2 of $23 million, which were weighed down by the timing of collections and inventory build due to the environment. During the quarter, we continued to advance our strategy of growing the topline, driving a high-performance culture to expand margins and optimizing our allocation of capital. Our team delivered a funded book-to-bill3 of approximately 1x and received several billion dollars of IDIQ contracts. Moreover, we announced the formation of the Agile Development Group and a strategic partnership with Shield Capital, accelerating investments in innovation. We also solidified our e3 efforts for the year and identified projects to mitigate impacts associated with potential inflation pressures. In addition, we returned over $500 million of capital to shareholders, which included a 10% dividend increase, and preserved our balance sheet capacity. Lastly, we’ve maintained our 2022 guidance. It assumes improvement from supply chain recovery, accelerated contracting activity and program ramps. Coupled with a differentiated strategy and a dedicated workforce of 47,000 employees, I remain excited about the opportunities ahead. Christopher E. Kubasik Vice Chair and Chief Executive Officer

Page 5 Refer to endnotes on page 20 With the conflict in Eastern Europe, the urgency and awareness around defense spending has grown globally. Budget dollars have and are expected to continue gravitating towards agile, advanced and affordable solutions domestically and internationally to address a range of threats. In addition, while the slow contracting activity from late 2021 has carried into the early part of the year, based on recent events, the company is optimistic regarding the trajectory of new awards. Notwithstanding the contracting environment, the L3Harris team made solid progress to start the year with a funded book-to- bill3 of approximately 1x in 1Q22 and over the last twelve months (LTM), and while backlog declined from divestitures, organic1 backlog grew 6% versus the prior year. The U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) budget for Government Fiscal Year (GFY) 2022 was enacted on March 15 following a 165-day continuing resolution, with 6% topline growth versus the prior year. L3Harris programs were well supported and highlights include funding for responsive satellite programs for the Space Development Agency (SDA) and Missile Defense Agency (MDA) to address threats from hypersonic missiles. The budget also includes investments in soldier modernization for the U.S. Army via the Handheld, Manpack, and Small form-fit radios (HMS) and other programs. For GFY23, the U.S. President’s Budget Request (PBR) seeks 4% growth and demonstrates support for L3Harris within space, sea and cyber- based programs, as well as others.

Page 6 Refer to endnotes on page 20 DoD budgets for both GFY22 and the GFY23 PBR validate L3Harris’ strategy of investing in future technologies through leading internal research and development (IR&D) spend, with an emphasis on open architecture, multi-function and software-defined solutions across the broader portfolio. The GFY22 Research, Development, Test and Evaluation (RDT&E) budget increased 12% versus the prior year, and the GFY23 PBR adds an additional 9%. The increases pair well with the company’s strategy and supports the formation of the Agile Development Group (ADG), an innovation accelerator for L3Harris, and strategic partnership with Shield Capital, a technology-focused venture capital firm. In international markets, a key focus area of growth for L3Harris, the threat environment is also leading to an upward trend in defense budgets.

This, combined with L3Harris’ focused efforts to expand its reach and range of offerings — such as aircraft missionization, fighter jet upgrades, maritime platform expansion, and soldier modernization — put the company in a strong position to capitalize on growing demand in the region. In addition, European countries outside of NATO have similarly committed to increased spending.

During 1Q22, the company continued to advance its responsive satellite strategy and received several awards for related ground- based capabilities: ■ Approximately $120 million in follow-on awards for the Maintenance of Space Situational Awareness Integrated Capabilities (MOSSAIC) to maintain and upgrade ground-based command and control systems, bringing the total contract value to-date to more than $500 million. ■ Over $50 million for the Deep Space Advanced Radar Capability (DARC) program to provide a space monitoring antenna, with expansion potential over the next several years. ■ Nearly $50 million in support of a classified program that further advances the development of responsive space strategies. solidifying its position as a partner of choice for the DoD and international customers. In 1Q22, the company received several key awards in support of ISR missionization and modernization, including: ■ Nearly $500 million, including option years, to provide long-term in-service support for a fleet of CF-18 aircraft for the Canadian Department of National Defence (DND), continuing the company’s 35-year legacy of support to the Royal Canadian Air Force. ■ Over $300 million on incumbent U.S. Air Force programs, such as Rivet Joint, that provide real-time intelligence collection and analysis across the globe. ■ Several million dollars for the Airborne Reconnaissance and Electronic Warfare System (ARES) program, leveraging the development of next generation business jet ISR systems, to further advance the U.S. Army’s airborne capabilities.

In addition, in April L3Harris was awarded a prime contract for more than $200 million, and potentially $600 million with options, to provide the U.S. Navy with the Shipboard Panoramic Electro-Optic / Infrared (SPEIR) system. This system will detect and track anti-ship cruise missiles, attack craft and unmanned air systems as well as aid navigation. It is targeted for installation on destroyers, carriers, frigates, amphibious and landing helicopter assault ships to provide a critical warfighting capability.

Non- GAAP EPS2 declined 2%, or $0.06 to $3.12, primarily due to the decline in revenues and margins, partially offset by a lower adjusted tax rate2 and reduced share count. $3.18 $(0.21) $(0.16) $0.07 $0.20 $0.04 $3.12 1Q21 Actual Divestitures Supply Chain impact Operations Share count Other 1Q22 Actual 1Q22 Non-GAAP EPS2 Walk -2% Integrated Mission Systems (IMS) revenue decreased 2%, driven primarily by declines of $35 million in ISR, reflecting lower aircraft procurement and delivery volume that outweighed higher production and modification activity on an aircraft missionization program and $47 million from lower volume on fuzing and ordnance systems and other related programs. The declines were partially offset by an increase in revenue of $24 million in Electro Optical, reflecting higher WESCAM volumes, $22 million in Maritime primarily due to higher revenue on Virginia-class and classified programs and $10 million in Commercial Aviation Solutions, from a continued aerospace market recovery. Consistent with expectations, as well as prior commentary, first quarter results were pressured from a revenue and margin standpoint. Revenue declined 10% and 5% organically1,excluding the impact of prior year divestitures that totaled approximately $270 million. Revenue was impacted by continued supply chain disruptions, award timing and airborne program transitions. Segment operating margin2 contracted versus the prior year by 40 basis points to 16.0%, primarily due to supply chain disruptions and net of other offsetting factors.

The global electronic component shortages impacted product heavy businesses, including Tactical Communications, similar to prior quarters. Within Tactical Communications specifically, the expectation remains for the impact to be timing in nature, with no effect on demand. This is supported by a steady backlog, robust orders and several multi-billion dollar IDIQ awards in 1Q22. L3Harris expects supply chain challenges to continue through 2Q22 with recovery later in the year, consistent with broader market expectations. Moreover, the company is mitigating supply chain challenges by: ■ Increasing visibility into lower tiers of the supply chain ■ Establishing longer-term agreements with key suppliers ■ Working with government agencies to establish defense-priority designations ■ Engaging in supplier relationship management at all levels ■ Redesigning and reworking products with alternative components ■ Selectively holding higher levels of inventory to meet demand 1.4x 1.0x Funded Book-to-Bill3 Funded Book-to-Bill3 Tactical Communications 1Q22 IDIQs ($B) $6.1 $3.7 $0.8 $0.6 SINCGARS Navy / Multi- Service (“PRP”) USMC Multi- Channel SOCOM - NGTC Supply Chain 0.9x Funded Book-to-Bill3
Page 13 Refer to endnotes on page 20 1Q22 Highlights The company continued to execute its strategy to strengthen its operations and achieved key business milestones. L3Harris earlier this month announced its innovation accelerator, the Agile Development Group (ADG), which reports through the IMS segment, focused on front-end development for urgent, modular defense solutions. ADG aligns with the company’s strategy as the Trusted Disruptor, leveraging technologies and resources across the enterprise as well as with external partners. Within the Mission Avionics business, the F-35 Technology Refresh 3 (TR3) Integrated Core Processor (ICP), which provides data processing for several of the aircraft’s key systems, entered safety-of-flight testing. This is a key milestone ahead of certification and full qualification later this year. The Broadband Communications business completed its transition to a state-of-the-art facility in Salt Lake City, Utah. The newly constructed facility will house over 1,000 employees and support growth opportunities for a range of platforms.
Page 14 Refer to endnotes on page 20 Last month, the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES-T) was launched. It is the third satellite in the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s fleet of geostationary weather satellites. L3Harris provides the Advanced Baseline Imager that enables faster and more accurate forecasts. 1Q22 marks approximately two years since the beginning of the COVID pandemic. Over that period, roughly half of L3Harris employees remained onsite, with proper safety protocols, such as at the Waco, Texas facility (pictured top- right), maintaining L3Harris’ commitment to customers. The company thanks this dedicated group, and all employees, for their perseverance. With the pandemic easing, a large majority of the workforce is now onsite as the company returns to a new normal. In early March, L3Harris announced initiatives to provide humanitarian support for the people of Ukraine, the company and its employees have raised ~$750,000.
Page 15 Refer to endnotes on page 20 216 203 195 ■ L3Harris paid $218 million in dividends in 1Q22, which reflected the 10% increase announced on February 25 and built on the prior two increases of 20% and 13% in 1Q21 and 1Q20, respectively. The company’s focus remains on paying a competitive dividend and improving the pay-out relative to cash flow. ■ Share repurchases totaled $308 million in 1Q22, bringing repurchase activity since mid-2019 to nearly $8 billion and reducing the share count by approximately 15% over the same period. The remaining balance on the company’s current authorization is $2.2 billion. Cumulative Share Repurchases and Share Count Since Merger- Close $3.8 $7.5 $7.8 2020 2021 1Q22 In 1Q22, L3Harris reported $39 million of operating cash flow and adjusted free cash flow2 of $23 million, and returned $526 million to shareholders. Capital returns consisted of $218 million in dividends, reflecting a recent 10% increase, and $308 million in share repurchases. Cash Flow 1Q22 adjusted free cash flow2 was down versus the prior year, driven primarily by working capital build associated with collection timing, higher inventory from supply chain disruptions and other factors. Working capital days were higher sequentially and versus the prior year. Capital expenditures were $55 million. Capital Deployment Capital deployment continued to balance both dividends and share repurchases, with more focus on share repurchases as L3Harris offset dilution from divestiture activity and took advantage of the value of its shares.

Shield Capital is based in Silicon Valley and supports innovators building solutions for commercial and government customers. ■ L3Harris continues to evaluate additional opportunities to optimize its portfolio through investments, mergers and acquisitions, as well as divestitures.

Page 17 Refer to endnotes on page 20 L3Harris reiterated its prior 2022 guidance, which continues to reflect current market conditions. It includes modest revenue growth, consistent with ongoing budget and contracting uncertainty, as well as relatively stable margins that net to 4% EPS growth at the mid-point of the range. Cash flow expectations account for current tax policy and impacts from R&D capitalization requirements. Organic revenues1 are still expected to be up 1% to 3%, with growth in each segment and a mid- single-digit decline in first-half 2022. Segment operating margin2 is anticipated to be 16.00% to 16.25%, consistent with prior guidance, positioning L3Harris for another year of expansion at the upper-end of the range. Margins are expected to follow revenue, with more weighting in the back-half of 2022. Integrated Mission Systems revenue is expected to be $7.1 billion to $7.3 billion, up 2% to 4%, driven by Maritime expansion, classified growth and continued recovery in Commercial Aviation Solutions. For the segment, ISR aircraft timing, amongst other factors, are expected to drive a low to mid-single-digit decline in the first- half of the year, with high-single-digit growth in the back-half. IMS operating margin is anticipated to be within a range of 13.50% to 13.75%, with operational excellence more than offsetting potential program mix impacts. 2022 Guidance Revenue $17.3 billion - $17.7 billion Organic revenue growth1 up 1.0% - 3.0% L3Harris GAAP net income margin 12.00% - 12.25% Segment operating margin2 16.00% - 16.25% GAAP EPS $10.75 - $11.05 Non-GAAP EPS $13.35 - $13.65 Operating cash flow4 $2.4 billion - $2.5 billion Adjusted free cash flow2,4 $2.15 billion - $2.25 billion 2022 Guidance by Segment Revenue Segment Operating Margin2 IMS $7.1B - $7.3B (up 2.0% - 4.0%) 13.50 - 13.75% (prior year of 13.5%) SAS $6.0B - $6.1B (flat - up 2.0%) 12.50 - 12.75% (prior year of 12.8%) CS $4.4B - $4.5B (up 2.0 - 4.0%) 24.25 - 24.50% (prior year of 24.3%)
Page 18 Refer to endnotes on page 20 Space & Airborne Systems revenue is expected to be $6.0 billion to $6.1 billion, or flat to up 2%, driven by traction in responsive space along with classified strength in Intel & Cyber, which will be moderated by continued pressure in the airborne businesses as they transition to modernization over the coming years. SAS operating margin is expected to be within a range of 12.50% to 12.75%, as operational excellence largely offsets net mix headwinds. Communication Systems revenue is expected to be $4.4 billion to $4.5 billion, or up 2% to 4%, from modernization demand in Tactical Communications, with supply chain delays netting a double-digit decline in the first- half and strong growth in the back-half of the year, along with recovering sales in Public Safety. Growth will be moderated by weakness in Broadband Communications and Integrated Vision Solutions. CS operating margin is anticipated to be within a range of 24.25% to 24.50%, as operational excellence, including mitigation efforts due to lower volumes, will more than offset supply chain pressures. Free Cash Flow and Capital Allocation The intact adjusted free cash flow2,4 guide of $2.15 billion to $2.25 billion continues to incorporate current tax regulations, which required the company to capitalize and amortize R&D at the beginning of 2022, versus the prior practice of annual deductions in the year incurred, resulting in tax cash payment increases of $600 million to $700 million. Net FAS/CAS pension adjustment ($M) ~$540 Net interest expense ($M) ~$265 Integration expenses ($M) ~$35 Effective tax rate (non-GAAP) ~15% Average diluted shares outstanding (million shares) ~194 Capital expenditures ($M) ~$330 2022 Other Financial Guidance

This includes incremental funding and adjustments to previous awards, and excludes unexercised contract options or potential orders under indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity contracts. The funded book-to-bill ratio is considered a key performance indicator in the Aerospace and Defense industry as it measures how much backlog is utilized in a certain period. 4Operating cash flow and adjusted FCF guidance (2022) assumes a provision in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 that went into effect on January 1, 2022 requiring companies to capitalize and amortize R&D expenditures over five years (~$2 billion) rather than deducting such expenditures in the year incurred is not modified, repealed or deferred beyond 2022, resulting in additional cash income tax payments of $600 million to $700 million.

Page 21 This Investor Letter contains non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including earnings per diluted share from continuing operations (“EPS”), segment operating margin and adjusted free cash flow for the first quarters of 2022 and 2021; organic revenue growth and organic backlog growth for the company for the first quarter of 2022; debt to net-debt-to-EBITDA (adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ratio); non-GAAP effective tax rate and expected organic revenue growth, segment operating margin, EPS, and adjusted free cash flow, non-GAAP effective tax rate for 2022; in each case, adjusted for certain costs, charges, expenses, losses or other amounts as set forth in the reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures included in the financial statement tables accompanying this Investor Letter. A “non-GAAP financial measure” is generally defined as a numerical measure of a company’s historical or future performance that excludes or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments, so as to be different from the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). L3Harris management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with the GAAP financial measures, provide information that is useful to investors in understanding period-over-period operating results separate and apart from items that may, or could, have a disproportionately positive or negative impact on results in any particular period. L3Harris management also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures enhance the ability of investors to analyze L3Harris business trends and to understand L3Harris performance. In addition, L3Harris may utilize non-GAAP financial measures as guides in forecasting, budgeting and long-term planning processes and to measure operating performance for some management compensation purposes. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP.
