L3Harris Technologies, Inc. pays out 49.1% of earnings as dividends, a payout ratio classified as moderate (40–60%).

Per-share payments grew from $1.06 to $4.80 over that window (2026 data is partial and excluded from the CAGR calculation).

| Period | CAGR | From | To |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3-Year | +2.3% | $4.48 (2022) | $4.80 (2025) |
| 5-Year | +7.1% | $3.40 (2020) | $4.80 (2025) |
| 10-Year | +9.5% | $1.94 (2015) | $4.80 (2025) |
LHX stock fits dividend investors who want meaningful income growth from a defense-oriented business without taking on high payout risk. The yield sits at 2.02%, classified as moderate (2–4%), and runs above the 5-year average of 1.84%, meaning the current entry point offers slightly more income than the historical norm. Twenty consecutive years of dividend increases back that up with a real record. The trade-off is straightforward: growth has slowed, with the 2023 increase coming in at just 1.8%, and the yield is not high enough to satisfy investors whose primary goal is maximum current income.
