333NOTE P: BUSINESS SEGMENT REPORTING
Reportable segments have been determined based upon product
lines and include the following: Integrated Defense Systems,
Intelligence and Information Systems, Missile Systems, Network
Centric Systems, Space and Airborne Systems, Technical Services,
Aircraft, and Other. In 2003, the Company began reporting its
defense businesses in six segments. In addition, the Company’s
Commercial Electronics businesses were reassigned to the new
defense businesses. Also, the Company created an Other seg-
ment comprised of Flight Options LLC (FO), Raytheon Airline
Aviation Services LLC (RAAS), and Raytheon Professional
Services LLC (RPS). FO offers services in the aircraft fractional
ownership industry. RAAS manages the Company’s commuter air-
craft business and Starship aircraft portfolio. RPS works with cus-
tomers to design and execute learning solutions.
Integrated Defense Systems (IDS) provides mission systems
integration for the air, surface, and subsurface battlespace.
Intelligence and Information Systems (IIS) provides signal and
image processing, geospatial intelligence, airborne and space-
borne command and control, ground engineering support, and
weather and environmental management.
Missile Systems (MS) provides air-to-air, precision strike, sur-
face Navy air defense, and land combat missiles, guided projec-
tiles, kinetic kill vehicles, and directed energy weapons.
Network Centric Systems (NCS) provides network centric solu-
tions to integrate sensors, communications, and command and
control to manage the battlespace.
Space and Airborne Systems (SAS) provides electro-
optical/infrared sensors, airborne radars, solid state high energy
lasers, precision guidance systems, electronic warfare systems,
and space-qualified systems for civil and military applications.
Technical Services (TS) provides technical, scientific, and pro-
fessional services for defense, federal, and commercial cus-
tomers worldwide.
Raytheon Aircraft Company (RAC) designs, manufactures, mar-
kets, and supports business jets, turboprops, and piston-powered
aircraft for the world’s commercial, fractional ownership, and military
aircraft markets.
In 2003, the Company changed the way pension expense or
income is reported in the Company’s segment results. Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 87, Employers’
Accounting for Pensions, outlines the methodology used to
determine pension expense or income for financial reporting pur-
poses, which is not necessarily indicative of the funding require-
ments of pension plans which are determined by other factors. A
major factor for determining pension funding requirements are
Cost Accounting Standards (CAS) that proscribe the allocation
to and recovery of pension costs on U.S. government contracts.
The Company now reports the difference between SFAS No. 87
(FAS) pension expense or income and CAS pension expense as
a separate line item in the Company’s segment results called
FAS/CAS Pension Adjustment. The results for each segment
now only include pension expense as determined under CAS,
