Lockheed Martin Corporation (NYSE: LMT)

Former Attorney General of Louisiana, Charles C. Foti, Jr., Esq., a partner at the law firm of Kahn Swick & Foti, LLC (“KSF”), announces that KSF has commenced an investigation into Lockheed Martin Corporation (NYSE: LMT) (“Lockheed” or the “Company”).

Beginning in early 2024, the Company publicly represented that it had disciplined bidding practices and adequate oversight of its classified defense contracts. However, in three successive disclosures — October 2024, January 2025, and July 2025 — the Company revealed increasing losses due to significantly underestimated costs on several contracts, with each wave of losses larger than the last, and each time management representing that the situation had been fully assessed and contained, only to be contradicted months later. Further, throughout this period, the board quietly amended executive compensation formulas to shield bonuses from the impact of the anticipated losses, and caused the company to repurchase nearly $5 billion of its own stock at prices allegedly inflated by the misleading statements.

Thereafter, the Company and certain of its executives were sued in a securities class action lawsuit, charging them with failing to disclose material information during the Class Period in violation of federal securities laws, which remains ongoing.

KSF’s investigation is focusing on whether Lockheed’s officers and/or directors breached their fiduciary duties to its shareholders or otherwise violated state or federal laws.
