What the Analysts think about General Dynamics
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for General Dynamics stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
General Dynamics posted Q3 2025 revenue of $12.91 billion, up 10.6% YoY, and adjusted EPS of $3.88, both topping analyst forecasts and demonstrating strong operational performance (Reuters).
Aerospace segment revenue jumped 30.3% YoY, driven by Gulfstream jet deliveries rising from 28 to 39 units in Q3, reflecting resolved supply chain issues and sustained demand for business jets (Reuters).
In Q2, the Pentagon increased a submarine production contract for General Dynamics’ Marine Systems segment by $1.85 billion, boosting the segment's revenue by 22.2% YoY and supporting a strong order backlog (Reuters).
The Technologies segment saw just 2% revenue growth in Q3, far below the company's overall 10.6% increase, signaling weak momentum in its IT and mission systems business (Nasdaq).
Combat Systems revenue slipped 0.2% in Q2 as a result of the M10 Booker contract cancellation and supply chain production setbacks, showing volatility in the land combat vehicles business (Reuters).
Ongoing Gulfstream supply chain issues and certification delays caused BTIG to postpone the expected G700 delivery timeline to 2027, which may limit near-term aerospace segment growth (Investing.com).
