What these concentrations mean together

updated 2026-08-30

Mercury Systems' revenue is overwhelmingly tied to a single end market: sales to U.S. and foreign government defense programs, primarily as a subcontractor to defense prime contractors, accounted for approximately 97% of total net revenues in fiscal 2025 (95% and 98% in the prior two years) — a high-share, structural exposure to defense budgets and program cycles rather than to any one counterparty. Within that base, no single customer dominates: RTX Corporation accounted for 13% of total net revenues, a low-share dependency exposure, while Lockheed Martin and the U.S. Navy each accounted for 10% of total net revenues in fiscal 2025 — a low-share dependency exposure for Lockheed Martin and a low-share structural exposure for the U.S. Navy. On the supply side, the company depends on a limited number of key vendors for critical, sole-sourced components including FPGAs, ASICs, processors, memory products, and specialty glass, a high-share dependency exposure. Taken together, the picture is one of deep sectoral concentration in defense end markets paired with a reasonably diversified customer roster beneath that umbrella, while the sole-source component dependency remains the exposure most capable of disrupting execution independent of defense spending trends.

Concentration counts reflect items disclosed in each peer’s most recent 10-K; disclosed-size classification uses TrendMatrix’s internal 10-K extraction taxonomy.

Concentration disclosures are extracted verbatim from SEC 10-K filings; the disclosed-size classification and the synthesis above are engine-derived. Size reflects how large each exposure is against fixed share thresholds (HIGH >50%, MEDIUM 25–50%, LOW <25% or an explicit diversification statement), not a judgment of how dangerous it is, and is not a buy/sell rating, a price target, or a view on the stock.
