Defense industry financial growth and order backlogs

Overview

Defense manufacturers Elbit Systems and Elmet Group have reported significant financial growth and record-high order backlogs.

Elbit Systems reported a 40% rise in net profit to $173.6 million for the second quarter, with an order backlog reaching $32 billion. This growth was driven by a 32% increase in land systems sales due to munitions demand in Israel, as well as increased sales in C4I, cyber, and electronic warfare sectors across Europe and the Asia-Pacific region.

Similarly, Elmet Group reported a 35.2% increase in second-quarter revenue to $66.4 million and a record order backlog of $131.5 million. The company attributed its growth to organic demand in the aerospace and defense sectors and higher prices for raw materials such as tungsten and molybdenum.
