What recent analysts are saying

Citi has placed RTX on an "upside 30-day catalyst watch" while reiterating its Buy rating, arguing that the aerospace and defense group is more likely than peers to deliver a "beat and raise" second-quarter earnings print, as summarized in a recent research digest. Citi commentary via research recap Jefferies analyst Sheila Kahyaoglu likewise maintains a positive view, moving her rating from Hold to Buy and lifting the price target from 210 to 220 dollars per share in a prior update, which still frames the current analyst narrative.

Data from MarketBeat show that RTX delivered first-quarter 2026 earnings per share of 1.78 dollars on April 21, clearly above the consensus estimate of 1.52 dollars, which underpins why parts of the sell-side see scope for further positive surprises if operational trends continue. MarketBeat earnings summary For the full year 2026 RTX has guided to earnings per share between 6.60 and 6.80 dollars and revenue between 92 and 93 billion dollars, slightly below current consensus revenue projections but broadly aligned on profit expectations, according to the same overview.
