Demand for our products remains robust with over $81 billion of new commercial and defense awards, resulting in a record backlog of $340 billion. Given our performance year to date, we are again raising our full year outlook for adjusted sales, adjusted EPS, and free cash flow. We remain focused on increasing output, optimizing our cost structure, and investing in new technologies to support our customers and drive continued growth.
