Elbit Systems: Strong Q1, But Valuation Still Looks Stretched

Summary Elbit Systems delivered strong Q1 2026 results, with revenue up 15.5% YoY and a record $30.2B backlog, 71% international. Non-GAAP EPS beat by $0.54, margins expanded to 10.1%, and free cash flow remained robust despite increased capex and R&D investment. ESLT trades at a steep premium—51x earnings and 32x EV/EBITDA—reflecting high expectations for sustained growth, margin strength, and backlog conversion. I maintain a Hold rating: upside is capped by valuation risk, with execution, supply chain, or geopolitical shifts posing downside threats. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

Near-term demand and labor costs driven by the war are important factors to watch, but the company can rely on long-term global demand trends. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha
