Rothschild & Co Redburn cut its price target for RTX Corporation stock from USD 215.00 to USD 210.00 on October 23, 2026, according to MarketScreener. The target lies 6.73 percent above RTX's USD 196.75 primary-exchange price at the October 26, 2026 quote. RTX was trading at EUR 175.83 at Lang & Schwarz on October 26, 2026 at 5:52 p.m. CEST.

Target cut meets stronger guidance

The target reduction came despite RTX's latest operating update. The company reported third-quarter 2026 sales of USD 25.0 billion, up 11 percent from USD 22.5 billion in the third quarter of 2025, in its release dated October 20, 2026. RTX reported adjusted earnings per share of USD 2.26, up 33 percent year over year, including USD 0.25 from IEEPA cost recovery.

Management raised full-year adjusted sales guidance to USD 97.0 billion to USD 97.5 billion from USD 95.0 billion to USD 96.0 billion. Adjusted earnings-per-share guidance increased to USD 7.65 to USD 7.75 from USD 7.10 to USD 7.25, while free-cash-flow guidance rose to USD 9.0 billion to USD 9.2 billion from USD 8.5 billion to USD 8.75 billion.

Growth is broad across RTX

The third-quarter figures show contributions from all three main businesses. Collins Aerospace sales rose 10 percent to USD 8.38 billion, Pratt & Whitney sales increased 10 percent to USD 9.23 billion, and Raytheon sales climbed 14 percent to USD 8.03 billion. RTX also reported a USD 340.0 billion backlog, including USD 176.0 billion from commercial programs and USD 164.0 billion from defense.

Adjusted segment operating profit reached USD 3.89 billion in the third quarter of 2026, up 39 percent year over year. Free cash flow was USD 2.12 billion, while operating cash flow totaled USD 2.87 billion for the quarter. The company attributed part of the adjusted earnings increase to IEEPA recovery, so the reported improvement includes a non-operating contribution.

How the valuation reads

At USD 196.75 on the NYSE at 12:55 p.m. ET on October 26, 2026, RTX had a market capitalization of USD 265.5 billion and a price-to-earnings ratio of 31.94. The 52-week range was USD 166.74 to USD 226.88. The current US quote sits USD 30.13 below the 52-week high and USD 30.01 above the low.

For investors, the key tension is clear: Redburn's USD 210.00 target remains above the US quote, while RTX is simultaneously lifting its operating outlook. The third-quarter release also listed risks tied to defense budgets, aerospace demand, supply chains, tariffs, regulation and Pratt & Whitney's powder-metal matter.
