ROE

Textron Inc. (TXT), the aerospace and defense powerhouse behind Bell Helicopter, Cessna, and more, has shown resilient long-term growth despite industry bumps like the COVID crash and supply chain woes. Revenue plunged 15% in 2020 but rebounded to $13.7 billion by 2024, with efficiency gains pushing revenue per employee up 14%. Aggressive share buybacks slashed shares by 31% over eight years, supercharging EPS from $3.53 in 2016 to $4.33 in 2024 and fueling a 95% stock price surge—outpacing top-line growth while ROE stays in double digits.
The balance sheet is rock-solid, with equity up 29%, manageable debt, and free cash flow supporting buybacks over heavy capex. Valuations look tasty at 17.7x trailing P/E, 1.05x P/S, and 2x P/B, with analysts forecasting EPS jumping 69% to $7.33 by 2028 on defense tailwinds, eVTOL bets like Pipistrel, and mid-single-digit revenue CAGR. Yet margins dipped in 2024, hinting at inflation risks.
This steady eddy suits conservative portfolios chasing 5-7% annual returns with downside protection, but watch for defense delays, commercial jet softness, and geopolitical wild cards. Current targets suggest 9-12% upside potential—dive into the full analysis for the charts and deep dives that could make TXT your next hold.
