Net cash provided by operating activities increased to $5.4 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2026, from $1.8 billion in the prior-year period, an increase of approximately $3.6 billion. The improvement was driven by higher net income and favorable working-capital changes, including lower accounts receivable and higher accounts payable and accrued liabilities. Factoring agreements generated a $1.5 billion increase in operating cash flow year over year, primarily through customer-facilitated programs tied to commercial original-equipment deliveries. RTX paid $0.7 billion of taxes, net of refunds, in both six-month periods.
