Lockheed Martin's stock has underperformed major indices in 2026, rising only about 7.7% year-to-date despite two strong rallies. However, the company continues to offer a stable annual dividend yield of 2.58%, with the next $3.45 per share payment due on September 25. The defense giant recently secured a $1.2 billion missile contract, signaling potential growth as the U.S. and EU expand arms production. This positions Lockheed Martin for possible resurgence later in 2026 or in 2027 amid increased defense spending.
