    WALTHAM, Mass., Feb. 2, 2006 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Raytheon Company
(NYSE: RTN) reported fourth quarter 2005 income from continuing operations of
$282 million or $0.63 per diluted share compared to $246 million or $0.54 per
diluted share in the fourth quarter 2004.  Fourth quarter 2005 net income was
$276 million or $0.61 per diluted share compared to $245 million or $0.54 per
diluted share in the fourth quarter 2004.
    "Raytheon had another good year," said William H. Swanson, Raytheon's
Chairman and CEO.  "We had strong results across the Company and ended the
year with the lowest net debt in ten years.  This once again demonstrates our
continued commitment to our customers and shareholders."
    Fourth quarter 2005 results included an after-tax $30 million gain ($45
million pretax) or $0.07 per diluted share from the sale of the Company's
stake in its Indra ATM S.L., a Spanish joint venture.  Fourth quarter 2005
results also included an after-tax $19 million impairment charge ($22 million
pretax) or $0.04 per diluted share related to the Company's investment in
Flight Options.  Also, during the fourth quarter 2005, the Company recorded an
after-tax $7 million charge ($10 million pretax) or $0.02 per diluted share
from the early redemption of debt.  Fourth quarter 2004 results included a net
after-tax $13 million charge or $0.03 per diluted share related to a charge
for the early redemption of debt partially offset by a benefit from the change
in the tax law.
    Net sales for the fourth quarter 2005 were $6.2 billion, up 9 percent from
$5.7 billion in the fourth quarter 2004.  Government and Defense sales for the
quarter (after the elimination of intercompany sales) increased 5 percent to
$4.9 billion from $4.7 billion in the fourth quarter 2004.  Raytheon Aircraft
Company (RAC) sales for the quarter increased 27 percent to $1,085 million
from $853 million in the fourth quarter 2004.
    Free cash flow from continuing operations for the fourth quarter 2005 was
$1,033 million versus $760 million for the fourth quarter 2004.  Free cash
flow is defined by the Company as operating cash flow less capital spending
and internal use software spending and constitutes a non-GAAP financial
measure.  See Attachment F "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for a reconciliation
of free cash flow to operating cash flow and a discussion of the Company's use
of non-GAAP financial information.
    During the fourth quarter 2005, the Company repurchased 1.2 million shares
of common stock for $46 million as part of the Company's previously announced
$700 million share repurchase program.  The Company repurchased 11.2 million
shares of common stock in 2005 for $436 million.  Also during the quarter, the
Company retired $196 million of debt, bringing the total year debt reduction
to $678 million.  Net debt was $3.3 billion at the end of 2005 compared with
$4.6 billion at the end of 2004.

    Full Year Financial Results
    For the full year the Company reported income from continuing operations
of $942 million or $2.08 per diluted share compared to $439 million or $0.99
per diluted share in 2004.  The Company reported 2005 net income of $871

loss in discontinued operations or $0.16 per diluted share, versus $63 million
or $0.14 per diluted share in 2004.  The 2004 results also included an after-
tax charge of $222 million or $0.50 per diluted share for the settlement of a
class action shareholder lawsuit.

billion for 2004, an increase of 8 percent. Government and Defense sales for
the year (after the elimination of intercompany sales) increased 6 percent to

    Non-GAAP Financial Measures
    Fourth Quarter 2005



    Free cash flow is a "non-GAAP" financial measure under SEC regulations.
    The Company defines free cash flow as operating cash flow less capital
    spending and internal use software spending.  Our definition may differ
    from similarly titled measures used by others.  The Company uses free
    cash flow to facilitate management's internal comparisons to the
    Company's historical operating results and to competitors' operating
    results and as an element of management incentive compensation.  The
    Company believes disclosure of free cash flow performance provides
    investors greater transparency with respect to information used by
    management in its financial and operational decision making.  While this
    information may be useful in evaluating the Company, it should be
    considered supplemental to and not as a substitute for financial
    information prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
    principles.
