Even though its F-35 has been under fire for a spate of glitches, Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT) continues to secure orders for the high-tech fighter jet and other gear.
The orders have helped the defense contractor to steadily grow its annual earnings and provide shareholders with a hefty payout. Lockheed declared a Q2 dividend of $1.50 a share, which works out to a 3.1% yield at current prices, well above the S&P 500's 1.94% average.
The Bethesda, Md.-based company is also a reliable dividend payer, with a Dividend Stability Factor of 3 on a scale from 0 (most stable) to 99 (most volatile). This gauge measures how stable a company's dividend history is over a three- to five-year period. |

Lockheed Martin Corp. will give the media a first look at its Hybrid Airship prototype at the defense giant's Skunk Works facility in Palmdale on Wednesday.
The 21-metric-ton airship has been touted as a way to deliver heavy cargo and personnel to remote locations that may be inaccessible to trucks and other more traditional forms of transportation. Atlanta-based Hybrid Enterprises is the exclusive reseller of the airships.
Lockheed Martin has said the airship will be able to carry up to 47,000 pounds and burn less fuel than conventional aircraft.
The Hybrid Airship is the result of more than 20 years' worth of research. In 2006, the company flew a half-scale prototype -- the P-791 -- in Palmdale and completed all of its in-flight test objectives.
The Hybrid Airship is just the latest of similar vehicles that their makers are betting can disrupt cargo transportation. |
