General Dynamics (ISIN US3695501086) stock was trading at EUR 297.45 at Lang & Schwarz on October 14, 2026, at 12:30 p.m. CEST. On October 7, 2026, the board elected Danny Deep as CEO effective January 1, 2027, according to General Dynamics.
Leadership changes on January 1, 2027
Deep will succeed Phebe Novakovic, who is set to become executive chairman after serving as CEO since 2013. The company said Deep has spent 25 years at General Dynamics and became president in 2025, giving the transition an internal succession profile rather than an external management reset.
The leadership change is the most recent dated company event in the available record. It places continuity at the center of the investor narrative while leaving the four operating groups, Aerospace, Marine Systems, Combat Systems and Technologies, unchanged.
What does the quarterly profile show?
General Dynamics reported second-quarter 2026 revenue of USD 14.09 billion, up 8.10 percent from the same period a year earlier, while earnings per share reached USD 4.24. The figures and the period are reported by Investing.com.
The same earnings summary lists full-year 2026 earnings-per-share guidance of USD 16.80-16.90, raised from USD 16.45-16.55. That comparison gives the succession story a measurable operating backdrop ahead of the next scheduled report.
Three dated events frame the story
The chronology is compact: second-quarter 2026 revenue rose 8.10 percent year over year; General Dynamics won two defense contracts totaling USD 121.20 million on September 29, 2026; and the board elected Deep on October 7, 2026. The contract figure is listed in the General Dynamics news coverage on Investing.com.
Dates investors can track
The next two dated milestones are the January 1, 2027 CEO transition and the October 30, 2026 earnings report. The latter date is listed by Investing.com.
