According to TipRanks data, the analyst has a success rate of 61.1% and a total average return of 3.3% over the past year.
Furthermore, according to the comprehensive report, the opinions of $Northrop Grumman (NOC.US)$'s main analysts recently are as follows:
Northrop Grumman's third-quarter earnings per share and EBIT outperformed expectations, leading to a raised forecast, despite revenues being slightly below consensus. With the company's guidance confirmed and anticipated revenue growth of 3%-4% by 2025, it's evident that the past quarters have showcased consistent operational excellence, surpassing projections in various business segments. The company is on a path toward sustainable growth, improved margins, and enhanced free cash flow, while successfully progressing on two of the Department of Defense's most critical long-term programs.
Northrop Grumman delivered a robust performance in its third quarter, with a promising outlook on operating margins. Despite this, it is believed that the current share value already encapsulates much of the positive developments. The company stands in a favorable position irrespective of the outcome of the 2024 Presidential election, although there could be potential delays in its Ground Based Strategic Deterrent program.
Northrop Grumman's 2025 framework appears attainable with prospects for its usual upward revisions. The company seems well-positioned for the fourth quarter with guidance that appears relatively conservative.

此外，綜合報道，$諾斯羅普格魯曼 (NOC.US)$近期主要分析師觀點如下：
諾斯羅普格魯曼的第三季度每股收益和EBIt表現優異，導致預期提升，儘管營業收入略低於共識。隨着公司確認的指導和預計到2025年營收增長3%-4%，顯而易見，過去幾個季度展示了連續的運營卓越，在各業務領域超過了預期。公司正朝着可持續增長、改善利潤率和增強自由現金流的道路前進，同時在國防部最關鍵的兩個長期項目上取得成功進展。
諾斯羅普格魯曼第三季度表現強勁，對營運利潤率前景樂觀。儘管如此，人們認爲目前的股票價值已經包含了許多積極的因素。不管2024年總統選舉的結果如何，公司的位置都是有利的，儘管其地面戰略威懾項目可能會出現潛在延遲。
諾斯羅普格魯曼2025年框架似乎是可以實現的，有望獲得其通常的上調。公司似乎在第四季度處於一個良好的位置，其指導顯得相對保守。
