L3Harris Is Poised To Benefit From Increased Global Defense Spending
Business Strategy and Outlook
Defense prime contractors are not born, they’re assembled. L3Harris Technologies, the sixth-largest defense prime by defense sales, was made from the merger of equals between L-3 Technologies, a sensor-maker that operated a decentralized business focused on inorganic growth, and the Harris Corporation, a sensor and radio manufacturer that ran a more unified business. Underpinning the merger’s thesis was an assumption that additional scale would primarily generate cost synergies but that eventually, the firms would produce meaningful revenue synergies.
