A video message from our President and
Chief Executive Officer
Click here to view the transcript of this video.
At Lockheed Martin, we believe in living our core values, to Do What’s Right, Respect Others, and Perform with Excellence. This means maintaining the highest standards of ethical business conduct across our company.
Our values serve as our North Star, enabling us to maintain operational excellence and cultivate innovation. So I encourage each of you to read – to understand – and to uphold our Code of Ethics and Business Conduct, also known as “Setting the Standard.”
Our Code connects our shared values, our unwavering standards, and the policies we have in place to guide our leaders, teams, and actions every day. That’s why our Code clearly states our zero-tolerance policy for harassment, discrimination and corruption.
The Code also explains expectations at work and any time we act on behalf of the company. One of the most important ways we show our commitment to these shared values is by encouraging you to take action if you see behavior inconsistent with Lockheed Martin standards and expectations. And if you witness violations of policy or law, you have an obligation to report them.
We know speaking up is not always easy. However, no matter what your role or position, you can always step forward without any fear of retaliation.
I thank you for your commitment to uphold the high ethical standards that guide our company and sustain our success for years to come. By working as One Lockheed Martin, together we can ensure our ethics and integrity are never compromised.
Jim Taiclet, President and Chief Executive Officer

WE SET THE STANDARD
• Our Code establishes the principles by which
we maintain our commitment to ethical business
practices, which often go beyond what the law
requires.
• Our Code applies to Lockheed Martin employees,
our Board of Directors, consultants, contract
laborers and others representing or acting for our
Corporation.*
• We follow both the letter and the spirit of the
laws and regulations that govern our business and
the countries in which we operate.
• We do not take any illegal or unethical action,
even if it appears to benefit the Corporation or is
directed by a higher authority in the organization.
• We cooperate in investigations relating to
violations of the Code or our policies.
Why It Matters
• Maintaining the trust of employees, our customers and stakeholders is essential to ensuring sustainable success.
What to Watch Out For
• Violations of the Code may result in disciplinary action
up to and including termination.
• Leaders are accountable for actions that could
influence employees to violate our Code.
* Any waiver of the Code for executive officers or members of the Board of Directors may be made only by the Board or a Board committee and must be promptly disclosed to our stockholders on our website.
• Thank the employee for coming forward
• Listen carefully
• Ask for clarification and additional information to fully understand the concern
• Answer any question that you can, but seek help if you need it before responding
• You don’t have to provide an immediate response, but follow up with the employee as soon as possible
• Report any possible violation so that it may be investigated
Guidance for Leaders when Approached with a Question or Concern:
Investigations
X
You must notify the Legal Department, Ethics Office or Security if you learn that a government agency or any third party is conducting an investigation or asking for information pertaining to a suspected violation of law. We must never destroy or alter any documents or electronic records, lie to or mislead an investigator or obstruct the collection of information relating to an investigation or any legal action brought on behalf of, or against, the Corporation. To the greatest extent possible, we will cooperate with government agencies responsible for investigating suspected violations of the law. If requested by Lockheed Martin, we will cooperate with investigations conducted by any government.
X
This prevents waivers of the Code from being hidden from the public and complies with New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) requirements and similar rules under the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

We Take Action
WE SET THE STANDARD
• We act with integrity, ask tough questions and understand how our words and actions affect our colleagues and the Corporation.
• We take action to address values conflicts and potential violations of law or policy when they arise.
• We encourage one another to talk to leadership or other appropriate personnel when in doubt about the best course of action.
• We use the Voicing Our Values techniques to put our values into practice.
• For the Corporation to maintain a high level of
organizational integrity, we each must be willing
to take action.
• Challenges to our values may be a normal
occurrence in the work environment, but they
must be resolved.
Why It Matters
• Warning signs help us identify and correct potential problems before they become larger issues.
• Assumptions and inferences can impact our impartiality and hinder ethical decision-making.
What to Watch Out For
Voicing Our Values Techniques
• Why do I feel I’m right?
• What kind of questions should I ask, and of whom?
• What about this situation is bothering me?
• Am I asking questions to get information, or to
drive home my point?
Check Your Motivations
ASK QUESTIONS
OBTAIN DATA
Check Your Facts
• Do I have all the relevant information I need?
• Could I be jumping to conclusions?
• What data would be most impactful to my
intended audience?
• How do I know what is objective fact and what
are subjective assumptions?
See the Bigger Picture
• What are the things we can all agree on?
• What approach will bring the best outcome for
all parties?
REFRAME THE ISSUE
TALK TO OTHERS
Get Outside Your Own Head
• Who can I talk to about what I’m going through?
• How can I practice my approach?
• What objections will I likely encounter and how
should I best respond?

We Have
Zero Tolerance
for Harassment
WE SET THE STANDARD
• Lockheed Martin prohibits verbal or physical
conduct that offends, abuses, intimidates,
torments, degrades or threatens another person.
• We are committed to maintaining a
work environment that is free of physical,
psychological, and verbal harassment or
other abusive conduct.
• Our success depends on the talent, skills and
expertise of our people and our ability to function as
a tightly integrated team.
• Targets as well as witnesses of harassment may
struggle to contribute to their full potential.
Why It Matters
• Examples of prohibited conduct include unwelcome touching, assault, impeding or blocking movements; accessing, transmitting, or displaying offensive messages, images, or cartoons; making or using derogatory comments, epithets, slurs, jokes, or objects; and sexual harassment in any form.
What to Watch Out For
Examples of sexual harassment include:
• unwanted sexual advances, including verbal sexual advances and propositions
• offering employment benefits in exchange for sexual favors
• making or threatening reprisals after a negative response to sexual advances
• leering, making sexual gestures
• displaying pornographic or sexually suggestive objects or pictures, cartoons, or posters
• using inappropriate terms of endearment
• verbal abuse of a sexual nature
• graphic verbal commentaries about an individual's body
• sexually degrading words used to describe an individual
• suggestive or obscene letters, notes, or invitations
• Be mindful of your own behavior and how your
actions, words and deeds could impact someone
else.
• Harassment can occur in all forms of electronic
communication, in online collaboration tools, and
outside the workplace.
• Our policies apply to any external communication
which may be connected to Lockheed Martin. These
policies also govern conduct in any place where we,
as Lockheed Martin employees, perform work, as
well as off-premises situations that are connected
to work.
At Lockheed Martin,
there is no such thing as an uninvolved bystander. We are all responsible for speaking up and doing what's right.

We Have
Zero Tolerance
for Discrimination
WE SET THE STANDARD
• We do not discriminate against employees or
applicants on the basis of characteristics protected
by applicable law or Lockheed Martin policy.
• We follow all policies and laws that relate
to recruitment, selection, and other aspects
of employment such as promotion, demotion,
transfer, layoff, termination, compensation,
education, training and disciplinary action.
• When the diverse talents and perspectives of all
employees are fully embraced and leveraged, we
power innovative solutions and unparalleled value for
our customers. That won’t happen if individuals are
excluded simply by virtue of who they are.
Why It Matters
• Perpetuating stereotypes is a form of discrimination that can damage the culture and the performance of the Corporation.

We Have Zero Tolerance
for Retaliation
WE SET THE STANDARD
• Lockheed Martin does not tolerate retaliation
against anyone who, in good faith, makes an
inquiry, participates in an investigation or
reports misconduct.
Retaliation is the unfair or inappropriate
treatment against an employee for reporting
misconduct, filing a complaint, assisting
another in making a complaint, participating in
a company internal investigation or making an
ethics-related inquiry.
Contacting Ethics in “Good Faith” does not mean you have to be right, but it
does mean you believe the information provided is truthful.
• Fear of retaliation is one of the most common reasons
why employees won’t speak up or take action.
• Retaliation destroys trust.
Why It Matters
• If someone tries to stop you from reporting an issue,
that person can be subject to disciplinary action up to and
including termination.
• Retaliation can be subtle, such as changes in work
assignments or occurring in casual work-related
interactions (e.g., coffee or lunch breaks). You are legally
protected from reprisals for reporting fraud, waste or
abuse on government programs.
What to Watch Out For
X
U.S. law also entitles each Lockheed Martin employee to certain rights and protections against reprisals if the employee discloses, to certain government officials or to the Legal Department or Ethics Office, information that the employee reasonably believes is evidence of gross waste, mismanagement, abuse of authority, or violations of law related to U.S. government contracts, grants, or funds; or evidence of a substantial and specific danger to public health and safety.

Data Security starts with us. We should understand the sensitivity of the data we work with and our role in keeping it safe.
We encounter Sensitive Information at our facilities or customer locations, working from home or in public locations when working remotely. No matter where you are working at any given time, remember to stop and think when handling Sensitive Information.

Information in any or all of these categories: Personal Information (U.S.), Personal Data (Non-U.S.), Export Controlled Information, Lockheed Martin Proprietary Information, and Third Party Proprietary Information.
Proper Approval
We Accurately Charge Labor
and Other Costs
The violation of labor charging practices is one of the most frequent ethics case allegations at Lockheed Martin.
WE SET THE STANDARD
• We follow the business-specific labor recording policies and procedures wherever we work.
• We properly account for all costs including labor, travel, material and other costs.
• You will be held accountable for ensuring that your labor charges are accurate and that you are recording your time properly.
• Excessive use of online collaboration tools and the internet for non-work purposes could lead to labor mischarging.
• These actions not only violate policy, but also may be illegal:

These costs include, but are not limited to, normal contract work, work related to independent research and development and bid and proposal activities. This means that transactions between the Corporation and outside individuals and organizations are accounted for and executed in accordance with generally accepted accounting practices and principles in the United States, and in the countries where we do business.

We Avoid Individual Conflicts of Interest
WE SET THE STANDARD
• We are fair and impartial in our business dealings.
• We place the interest of Lockheed Martin over personal interests in matters relating to the Corporation's business.
• We avoid actual conflicts of interest as well as activities that create the appearance of one.
• We do not use our contacts or position in the Corporation to advance outside or personal interests.
• We do not use our Corporation’s property, information or opportunities for personal gain.
• We provide written disclosure of actual or potential conflicts of interest as soon as we become aware of them.
• It’s human nature to think we can balance multiple interests at the same time. We may not realize when our loyalties may be divided. That’s why we focus on disclosing even potential conflicts of interest - so we can get an independent, objective assessment and take appropriate mitigating action.
Why It Matters
• Owning or having a substantial interest in a company that is a customer, competitor or a supplier.
• Doing business with a firm owned or controlled by a Lockheed Martin employee or their family.
• Family relationships with persons employed by a supplier or competitor.
• Accepting gifts, payments or services from those seeking to do business with Lockheed Martin.
• Outside business interests.
• Acting as an independent consultant to a Lockheed Martin customer or supplier.
• Using assets for personal gain.
• Having a close, personal relationship with a subordinate employee.
Our Conflict of Interest policy covers many situations, including:
Click here to learn more.
We Avoid Conflicts of Interest with Government Employees
NOTE: U.S. Government employees should have their government ethics official review their background
before applying for work.
WE SET THE STANDARD
• We avoid conflicts of interest in connection with employing or acquiring the services of current or former government employees, which includes military personnel.
• We comply with all laws and regulations covering employing or acquiring the services of government employees.
• Our continued success and ability to compete in the marketplace depend on ensuring that we do not hire or work with current or former government employees in a manner that creates a real or perceived conflict of interest.
• The nature of the information and the competitive advantage and / or detail of information that the individual possesses may itself create a conflict.
Why It Matters
• Apply to contacting or negotiating with current government employees to discuss their potential future employment by the Corporation or their service as consultants or subcontractors.
• May restrict the roles and responsibilities that former government employees may perform on behalf of the Corporation.
• Can be complex. Don’t hesitate to seek advice from Legal or your Human Resources Department.

The rules regarding government employees:
X
U.S. Government employees should have their government ethics official review their background before applying for work. This process may result in a recusal letter (also called a disqualification letter) and an ethics opinion letter which would explain any restrictions or bans on their potential post-government employment. Before interviewing for a position, Lockheed Martin requires applicants to complete a conflict of interest form for review by Legal.

What is an OCI?
WE SET THE STANDARD
We Avoid Organizational Conflicts of Interest
• We actively work to avoid, neutralize, or mitigate Organizational Conflicts of Interest (OCI).
• We seek to prevent unfair competitive advantage or conflicting roles that might impair
our objectivity.
• We are in a unique business where we provide products and services to a limited number of government customers. Many employees have worked with multiple customer representatives across different programs.
• A conflict on one government contract could compromise our ability to work successfully on another.
• Failure to properly screen new business opportunities could result in disqualification or loss of the opportunity.
• Our policies are intended to prevent both unfair competitive advantage and conflicting roles that might bias the Corporation’s judgment.
Why It Matters
• Be sure to report and maintain the disclosure of any OCI restrictions and notify your supervisors and prospective supervisors of any OCI restrictions.
What to Watch Out For
An organizational conflict of interest may exist if, because of other activities or relationships, we are unable to render impartial assistance or advice to the government, or our objectivity in performing the contract is or may be impaired, or we may have gained an unfair competitive advantage.
X
Visit CRX-600 for the process regarding preparing a screening letter and distributing it through the OCI Reporting System.
OCI Reporting System
All of us, whether or not we own Lockheed Martin stock, should be aware of Insider Trading because we could still tip others, or trade in the stock of other companies, based on information learned at work.
WE SET THE STANDARD
We Do Not Engage in Insider Trading
• We not only comply with all applicable securities laws, we avoid even the appearance of impropriety.
• When in possession of material, nonpublic information about Lockheed Martin or another company:
• Our investors’ trust in us and the public’s trust in financial markets depend on confidence that trades in securities are based on publicly available information.
Why It Matters
• Each of the terms “securities,” “trading,” “material” and “nonpublic” have extensive and complicated legal definitions. Contact the Legal Department if you have a question about whether something is material nonpublic information or a question on trading securities.
• If in your work you learn of important information related to Lockheed Martin or a third party before the general public knows, there’s a possibility it could be considered material nonpublic information. Communicating such information to others may violate the law, even if you personally do not trade any securities based on such information.
What to Watch Out For

Securities include stock (common and preferred), restricted stock units, employee stock options, bonds, notes, debentures, put or call options, or similar instruments.

Trading includes all transactions in securities, including fund transfers or fund reallocations into or out of the Lockheed Martin stock fund in your savings, benefit or deferred compensation plans; any purchase or sale of common stock (including the sale of shares received from vested restricted stock units); gifts of Lockheed Martin securities if the value of the gift is established for tax purposes at the time the gift is made; and the exercise of employee stock options.. It also incldues trades executed pursuant to limit orders, even if these were placed prior to your coming into possession of material, nonpublic information.
Trading
X
Information is "material" if there is a substantial likelihood that a reasonable investor would consider it important in deciding whether to trade a security. Both positive and negative information can be "material."
Material
X
Information is considered "nonpublic" until it becomes widely disseminated. This means it has been in the news or released in the form of an official announcement and enough time has passed in the open market, privately or in company plans for the information to be assimilated by the general public (typically the next business day).

We Use Artificial Intelligence Responsibly
Lockheed Martin was one of the first defense leaders to align with the U.S. Department of Defense guidance on the Ethical Use of Artificial Intelligence.
WE SET THE STANDARD
• We are committed to pursuing the benefits of Artificial Intelligence (AI) while ensuring procurement, development and our internal use are in accordance with our values.
• If you are involved in the development, procurement, deployment or internal use of AI systems, ensure you are familiar with the principles and concepts outlined in CPS-022, Ethical Development and Use of Artificial Intelligence.
• We recognize that AI holds tremendous potential benefits for our customers and our operations, and we intend to be an industry leader in this revolutionary technology.
• Access to tremendously valuable data and high-performance computing has unleashed unprecedented opportunities in AI that are changing the way companies operate in all industry sectors.
Why It Matters
What to Watch Out For
• We understand that, as a rapidly evolving discipline, there may be risks that must be considered and addressed in the design and implementation of AI systems.
We Value Fair Competition
Government prosecutors may not have to prove that price-fixing or bid-rigging was part of a formal written or expressed agreement. Circumstantial evidence, such as suspicious bid patterns or travel and expense reports can be enough to prosecute.
WE SET THE STANDARD
• We are fair in our dealings with customers,
suppliers, competitors and employees.
• We ensure all communications and
representations to prospective customers,
suppliers and partners are accurate and truthful.
• We perform all contracts in compliance with
laws, specifications, requirements, and contract
terms and conditions.
• We never request, accept, use, copy or distribute
any information to which Lockheed Martin is not
legitimately entitled.
• These activities not only violate policy, but also may be illegal:
training) without seeking guidance from the legal department or ethics office
• Discussion or agreement with competitors or partners to allocate bids, contracts, customers, markets or territories, or coordinate pricing or limit supply of products or services
• Maintaining the highest standards of integrity in our procurement processes, and in bidding or negotiating contracts, is essential to performing on current and future contacts, products and services.

Legitimately Entitled
We Respect Trade Guidelines
INTERNATIONAL TRADE LAWS AND REGULATIONS ARE COMPLEX. BE CAREFUL TO AVOID EVEN INADVERTENT VIOLATIONS.
WE SET THE STANDARD
• We comply with all export and import laws and regulations that cover the transfer of certain technical data, equipment and technology between countries.
• We do not engage in or support restrictive international trade practices or boycotts not sanctioned by the U.S. Government.
• We comply with both the U.S. law and the laws of the countries where we do business.
• Any written or oral request in bids and proposals to comply with boycotts not sanctioned by the U.S Government is a boycott red flag and must be immediately reported to your Element Legal Counsel, even if Lockheed Martin decides not to proceed with the bid / proposal.
• These restrictions can include sanctions or embargoes that prohibit Lockheed Martin from engaging in certain business activities in specified countries, as well as with specified individuals and entities. For example, U.S. law prohibits interaction with identified terrorist states and organizations.
• Export and import violations, and illegal boycotts, damage the trust and transparency needed to transact legitimate and long-term business.
• Our customers expect fair and open competition in how we do business worldwide with our competitors, suppliers and customers.
Why It Matters
What to Watch Out For

Per CPS-729, Lockheed Martin updates the U.S. Treasury list of boycotting countries as changes occur.

This includes explicit or more subtle contract language such as, “The Seller agrees to fully comply with the Israeli Boycott rules and certifies that the equipment to be supplied under this contract will not be of Israeli origin…” or, “The Seller’s specialists shall abide by all rules and laws with Country X.”

We Have
Zero Tolerance
for Corruption
and Kickbacks
WE SET THE STANDARD
• We have zero tolerance for bribery and corruption.
• We do not offer, give, solicit or receive any form of bribe or kickback.
• We walk away from any business engagement that would violate any anti-corruption law or our Code of Conduct, or that would create even a perception of impropriety.
• A party’s poor reputation, ties to government and public officials, questionable or unusual circumstances, unusual compensation and questionable accounting or invoicing, or insufficient capabilities are red flags.
• Expressions such as; ‘that’s the way business is done here’, ‘everyone does it’, ‘that is what is expected to win the contract’, or ‘this is normal in this country’ are also red flags.
• Report any red flag to Legal.
• Corruption creates unfair competition, increases cost and jeopardizes the quality and capability of our products and services.
•Bribery, including even the attempt to corrupt, is illegal and may be enough to be prosecuted under U.S. and other countries’ laws.
• Conducting business where there is even a hint of
impropriety could cause irreparable reputational and legal harm to our business, in addition to significant financial penalties and debarment.

We Strictly Adhere to
All Antitrust Laws
WE SET THE STANDARD
• We do not knowingly enter into business arrangements that eliminate or discourage competition or that give us an improper competitive advantage.
• If you are unsure whether a proposed activity complies with the antitrust laws, consult in advance with your Legal department.
• Antitrust laws apply world-wide and protect trade and commerce from unlawful restraints and monopolies, or unfair business practices, protecting both Lockheed Martin and our business partners.
Why It Matters
What to Watch Out For
Antitrust rules apply to more than you might think. They require that you avoid engaging in certain activities and business discussions. Examples from the policy include:
• Price fixing
• Boycotting suppliers or customers
• Pricing intended to run a competitor out of business

We Accept and Provide Only
Appropriate Business Courtesies
WE SET THE STANDARD
• We avoid even the perception that favorable treatment is being sought, received or given in exchange for business courtesies.
• We ensure that any business courtesy offered or accepted is permitted by law and policy.
• Complex rules and monetary limits apply when dealing with Public Officials. Consult policy and obtain guidance from Ethics if you are uncertain if an action is inappropriate or within the allowable limits.
• The Corporation has established specific guidelines for each country where we do business.
• When people exchange gifts or business courtesies, it can create the perception that favors were granted in order to improperly influence business judgment.
• We compete on the merits of our products and services and do not give business courtesies to gain an unfair competitive advantage.
• We source products and services fairly and avoid
accepting business courtesies that may cause even the perception of an inappropriate business relationship.
Why It Matters
What to Watch Out For
• It is not only the value of the business courtesy that matters. The simple act of offering, giving or receiving any business courtesy, or the perception of an intent to gain an improper business advantage, may be illegal or unethical.
• Some gift limit rules are calculated within a calendar year and others depend on the fair market value of the courtesy being offered or received.
• More restrictive rules regarding acceptance of business courtesies apply to employees who work in Supply Chain Management or are involved in the process of directing business or funds to our business relations.
X
A business courtesy is any tangible or intangible thing of value for which fair market value is not paid by the recipient.
Business Courtesies

• An official, employee, or person acting on behalf of a government-sponsored or public international organization such as the United Nations, World Bank, or the European Community;

We Maintain a
Drug-Free Workplace
WE SET THE STANDARD
• Lockheed Martin will not knowingly hire or rehire individuals who possess, use, sell, manufacture, transfer, or traffic in illegal drugs.
• We prohibit possession, use, sale, manufacture,
transfer, trafficking in, or being under the influence of illegal drugs, or the abusive use of legal drugs, in the workplace or in the performance of company business.
• We prohibit being under the influence of alcohol in the workplace or in any other location where we perform business on behalf of the Corporation.
• We comply with the Drug-Free Workplace Act of 1988 and federal, state, and local laws and regulations concerning violations of criminal drug
statutes in the workplace.
• As a U.S. federal contractor, Lockheed Martin is required to maintain a drug-free workplace. In the United States, state and local initiatives legalizing marijuana for medical or recreational purposes do not change this requirement.
• If you or a colleague has a drug or alcohol dependency issue, take advantage of company resources for help.
• Using an illegal substance can negatively impact our ability to perform safely, be productive and obtain or maintain a security clearance or continue employment.
Why It Matters
What to Watch Out For
For the purposes of our policy, being “under the influence” doesn’t necessarily mean being
above the legal limit.
Substance abuse can put all employees at risk, damage morale, decrease productivity, impact the safety of our products / services and harm the organization's public image.
Our individual
commitment supports the
security of our employees,
customers and business
partners.
We are Committed to Security

• We take action to mitigate threats to employee safety.
• We properly safeguard all classified material and other information entrusted to us.

• We use a thorough and objective security investigative process.
• You may be the first person to notice concerning changes in a colleague’s behavior, or suspicious or unusual activity, such as inquiries or requests for information from external sources regarding company
people, facilities, operations, programs or products. It’s up to you to report it.
• Ensure that any unauthorized access to information or assets is reported.
• An email security threat can include references to trick you into thinking it’s coming from a legitimate source.
• Security compliance benefits our Corporation, customers, national security and global stability.
• Adherence to security requirements supports contract performance and enables our products and services to be delivered uncompromised.
• A strong security program ensures that our workforce operates in safe environments.
• Lockheed Martin is a prime target for a number of threat actors seeking to gain information or to damage or destroy our capabilities.
