NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Principles of Consolidation – The unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements include the accounts of Northrop Grumman Corporation (Northrop Grumman or the company) and its subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts, transactions, and profits are eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements of the company have been prepared by management in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These statements include all adjustments considered necessary by management to present a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. The results reported in these financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the company’s 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The quarterly information is labeled using a calendar convention; that is, first quarter is consistently labeled as ending on March 31, second quarter as ending on June 30, and third quarter as ending on September 30. It is management’s long-standing practice to establish actual interim closing dates using a “fiscal” calendar, which requires our businesses to close their books on the Friday nearest these quarter-end dates, in order to normalize the potentially disruptive effects of quarterly closings on business processes. The effects of this practice only exist within a reporting year.

Accounting Estimates – The company’s financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingencies at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates have been prepared on the basis of the most current and best available information and actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Financial Statement Reclassifications – Certain amounts in the prior year financial statements and related notes have been reclassified to conform to the 2005 presentation.

During the third quarter of 2004, the company suspended its efforts to sell the remaining Component Technologies (CT) businesses, which consisted of a manufacturer of complex printed circuit boards and assemblies, an electronic connector manufacturer, and a European-based marketing group. Accordingly, the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of these businesses were reclassified from discontinued operations to continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, and reported under the segment entitled “Other.” As a result of the reclassification, net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, increased by $61 million and $120 million, respectively. Income from continuing operations increased by $6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations increased by $.02 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004. Effective January 1, 2005, the manufacturer of complex printed circuit boards and the electronic connector manufacturer were realigned from the Other segment to the Electronic Systems segment. The prior year financial statements do not reflect this realignment as the effect on the Electronic Systems segment’s sales and operating margin was not significant. During the second quarter of 2005, the company decided to shut-down the European-based marketing group and the costs associated with the shut-down are not significant.

Restatement for Medicare Part D Subsidy – During the third quarter of 2004, the company recorded the effects of the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 retroactively to January 1, 2004,

I-8

NORTHROP GRUMMAN CORPORATION

in accordance with the guidelines of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Staff Position FAS 106-2 – Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003. As a result, net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, increased by $3 million, or $.01 per diluted share, and $7 million, or $.02 per diluted share, respectively.

2.  NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Several new accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB became effective during the periods presented. None of the new pronouncements effective during the periods presented had a significant effect on the company’s financial position or results of operations.

Other new pronouncements issued by the FASB and not effective until after June 30, 2005, are not expected to have a significant effect on the company’s financial position or results of operations, with the possible exception of the following, which are currently being evaluated by management:

In March 2005, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. (FIN) 47 – Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143, that clarifies the term “conditional asset retirement obligation” as used in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 143 – Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. Specifically, FIN 47 provides that an asset retirement obligation is conditional when either the timing and (or) method of settling the obligation is conditioned on a future event. Accordingly, an entity is required to recognize a liability for the fair value of a conditional asset retirement obligation if the fair value of the liability can be reasonably estimated. Uncertainty about the timing and (or) method of settlement of a conditional asset retirement obligation should be factored into the measurement of the liability when sufficient information exists. This interpretation also clarifies when an entity would have sufficient information to reasonably estimate the fair value of an asset retirement obligation. FIN 47 is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R) – Share-Based Payment, which replaces SFAS No. 123 – Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25 – Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. In March 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 – Share-Based Payment, which provides interpretive guidance related to SFAS No. 123(R). SFAS No. 123(R) requires compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions to be recognized in the financial statements. With limited exceptions, the amount of compensation cost is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. SFAS No. 123(R) requires liability awards to be remeasured each reporting period and compensation costs to be recognized over the period that an employee provides service in exchange for the award. In April 2005, the SEC delayed the effective date of SFAS No. 123(R) to the beginning of the annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005. Management plans to adopt this statement on a prospective basis beginning January 1, 2006.

3.  COMMON STOCK DIVIDEND

Common Stock Dividend – On March 23, 2005, the company’s Board of Directors approved a 13 percent increase to the quarterly common stock dividend, from $.23 per share to $.26 per share, beginning with the second quarter 2005 dividend.

4.  BUSINESS ACQUIRED

On March 21, 2005, the company acquired privately held Integic Corporation (Integic) for $313 million. Integic is located in Chantilly, Virginia, and specializes in enterprise health and business process management solutions. The operating results of Integic are included as part of the Government Information Technology business area of

I-9

NORTHROP GRUMMAN CORPORATION

the Information Technology segment beginning April 1, 2005, as the operating results from March 21, 2005, through March 31, 2005, were not significant. The assets, liabilities, and results of operations of Integic were not material and thus pro-forma information is not presented. The financial statements reflect preliminary estimates of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the related allocations of the purchase price for Integic. During the three months ended June 30, 2005, approximately $34 million of the purchase price was allocated from goodwill to purchased intangibles and amortization expense for these intangibles from the acquisition date was recorded in the quarter ended June 30, 2005 (see Note 9). The company is currently reviewing preliminary fair value adjustments associated with certain contracts and accounts receivable. The ultimate allocation of the purchase price may differ from the amounts included in these financial statements. Adjustments to the purchase price allocations are expected to be finalized by the fourth quarter of 2005, and will be reflected in future filings. Management does not expect these adjustments, if any, to have a material effect on the company’s financial position or results of operations.

5.  BUSINESSES SOLD AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Teldix – On March 31, 2005, the company sold Teldix GmbH (Teldix) for $56 million in cash and recognized a pre-tax gain of $16 million in discontinued operations. Subsequent purchase price adjustments per the sale agreement have decreased the pre-tax gain to $15 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005. The results of operations of Teldix, reported in the Electronic Systems segment, were not material to any of the periods presented and have therefore not been reclassified as discontinued operations.

Kester – In February 2004, the company sold one of the CT businesses, Kester, for $60 million in cash and recognized a pre-tax gain of $3 million in discontinued operations. The accompanying Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income include the January and February 2004 operating results of Kester, which were not material.

The reconciling item captioned “Unallocated expenses” includes the portion of corporate, legal, environmental, state income tax, other retiree benefits expenses, stock compensation, and other expenses not considered allocable to government contracts under applicable government regulations and not allocated to the segments.

In order to reconcile from segment operating margin to total company operating margin, these amounts are reported under the caption “Reversal of CAS pension expense included above.” Total pension expense determined under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America is reported separately as a reconciling item under the caption “Pension expense.”

7.  EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic Earnings Per Share – Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period.

Diluted Earnings Per Share – The dilutive effect of stock options and other stock awards granted to employees under stock-based compensation plans totaled 6.7 million and 4.5 million shares for the three months ended June 30, 2005, and 2004, respectively, and 6.2 million and 4.1 million shares for the six months ended June 30, 2005, and 2004, respectively. Shares issuable pursuant to the mandatorily redeemable preferred stock are not included in the diluted earnings per share calculations because their effect was not dilutive for the periods presented. The weighted-average diluted shares outstanding for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2005, exclude stock options to purchase approximately 4 million shares, and the weighted-average diluted shares outstanding for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, exclude stock options to purchase approximately 13 million and 16 million shares, respectively, since such options have an exercise price in excess of the average market price of the company’s common stock during the respective periods.

Share Repurchases – On October 26, 2004, the company’s Board of Directors authorized a program to repurchase up to $1 billion of its outstanding common stock. The program commenced in November 2004 and is expected to be completed over a twelve to eighteen-month period. Share repurchases take place at management’s discretion and under pre-established non-discretionary programs from time to time, depending on market conditions, in the open market, and in privately negotiated transactions. The company retires its common stock upon repurchase. During the three months ended June 30, 2005, the company repurchased 2.8 million shares at an average price of $55.22 per share, including commissions, under this share repurchase program. During the six months ended June 30, 2005, the company repurchased 9.2 million shares at an average price of $53.45 per share, including commissions, under this share repurchase program. From the inception of this program through June 30, 2005, the company has repurchased 14.6 million shares at an average price of $54.56 per share, including commissions.

8.  TRW AUTO INVESTMENT

At December 31, 2004, the company owned 17 million common shares of TRW Automotive Holdings Corp. (TRW Auto), of which approximately 4 million shares were reported as available-for-sale securities and were recorded at their fair value of $83 million. The amount recorded reflected the corresponding publicly traded stock price of TRW Auto and is included in “Prepaid expenses and other current assets” as of December 31, 2004, in the accompanying Consolidated Condensed Statements of Financial Position. The remaining 13 million shares were carried at their cost of $130 million as of December 31, 2004, and are included in “Other assets” in the accompanying Consolidated Condensed Statements of Financial Position.

On March 11, 2005, the company sold 7.3 million of its TRW Auto common shares for $143 million, and recorded an after-tax gain of $45 million. The sale reduced the company’s ownership of TRW Auto to 9.7 million common shares. The remaining investment is carried at cost of $97 million and included in “Other assets” as of June 30, 2005, in the accompanying Consolidated Condensed Statements of Financial Position as the shares were not registered or otherwise marketable as of that date. The company does not consider this investment to be critical to its ongoing business operations. Any future sale would be dependent upon the waiver of certain restrictions by TRW Auto, or the events described in the Second Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement dated January 28, 2004, between the company and TRW Auto.

9.  GOODWILL AND OTHER PURCHASED INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill

Goodwill and other purchased intangible assets balances are included in the identifiable assets of the segment to which they have been assigned. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, impairment tests are performed at least annually and more often as circumstances require. Any goodwill impairment, as well as the amortization of other purchased intangible assets, is charged against the respective segment’s operating margin. The annual impairment test for all sectors except Mission Systems and Space Technology was performed as of April 30, 2005, with no indication of impairment. The impairment test for Mission Systems and Space Technology was

I-12

NORTHROP GRUMMAN CORPORATION

performed as of November 30, 2004, with no indication of impairment. In performing the goodwill impairment tests, the company uses a discounted cash flow approach corroborated by comparative market multiples, where appropriate, to determine the fair value of reporting units.

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the six months ended June 30, 2005, are as follows:

$ in millions		Electronic Systems			Ships			Information Technology			Mission Systems			Integrated Systems		Space Technology			Total
Balance as of December 31, 2004	$	2,597		$	3,630		$	2,398		$	4,265		$	955	$	3,337		$	17,182
Goodwill acquired								319											319
Goodwill of businesses sold		(19	)																(19	)
Fair value adjustments to net assets acquired					(12	)		(70	)		(11	)				(10	)		(103	)
Balance as of June 30, 2005	$	2,578		$	3,618		$	2,647		$	4,254		$	955	$	3,327		$	17,379

Fair Value Adjustments to Net Assets Acquired – The changes in the Information Technology segment primarily consisted of purchase price allocations to reflect adjustments to the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in relation to the acquisition of Integic (see Note 4). The remaining adjustments are primarily related to the recognition of a portion of the capital loss carryforward associated with the acquisition of TRW. Due to the uncertainty related to the company’s ability to fully utilize this capital loss carryforward, a valuation allowance equal to the full amount of the related tax benefit was recorded as of the acquisition date. Any reduction to this valuation allowance is recorded as a reduction of goodwill.

Purchased Intangible Assets

The table below summarizes the company’s aggregate purchased intangible assets as follows:

	June 30, 2005							December 31, 2004
$ in millions	Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization			Net Carrying Amount		Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization			Net Carrying Amount
Contract and program intangibles	$	2,591	$	(1,250	)	$	1,341	$	2,572	$	(1,146	)	$	1,426
Other purchased intangibles		125		(63	)		62		110		(59	)		51
Total	$	2,716	$	(1,313	)	$	1,403	$	2,682	$	(1,205	)	$	1,477

During the three months ended June 30, 2005, approximately $34 million of the Integic purchase price was allocated to purchased intangible assets with a weighted average life of 5 years. All of the company’s purchased intangible assets are subject to amortization and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over an aggregate weighted-average period of 22 years. Aggregate amortization expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, was $55 million and $108 million, respectively.

The table below shows expected amortization for purchased intangibles for the remainder of 2005 and for the next five years:

Restatement for Medicare Part D Subsidy – The net periodic benefit cost of medical and life benefits for the three months ended June 30, 2004, have been restated in the table above to reflect a reduction of $1 million in interest cost and $2 million in actuarial loss. The net periodic benefit cost of medical and life benefits for the six months ended June 30, 2004, have been restated in the table above to reflect a reduction of $3 million in interest cost and $4 million in actuarial loss (see Note 1).

Employer Contributions – The company expects to contribute approximately $205 million to its pension plans and approximately $184 million to its medical and life benefit plans in 2005. As of June 30, 2005, contributions of $59 million and $80 million have been made to the company’s pension plans and its medical and life benefit plans, respectively.

11.  LITIGATION, COMMITMENTS, AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation – Various claims and legal proceedings arise in the ordinary course of business and are pending against the company and its properties. The company is a defendant in lawsuits alleging personal injury as a result of exposure to asbestos integrated into its premises and certain historical products. Many of these claims have been dismissed with no payment and the remaining resolved claims have involved amounts that were not material either individually or in the aggregate. Based upon the information available, the company does not believe that the resolution of any of these various claims and legal proceedings will have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Departments and agencies of the U.S. Government have the authority to investigate various transactions and operations of the company, and the results of such investigations may lead to administrative, civil, or criminal proceedings, the ultimate outcome of which could be fines, penalties, repayments or compensatory or treble damages. U.S. Government regulations provide that certain findings against a contractor may lead to suspension or debarment from future U.S. Government contracts or the loss of export privileges for a company or an operating division or subdivision. Suspension or debarment could have a material adverse effect on the company because of its reliance on government contracts. Based on available information, the company does not believe, but can give no assurance, that any matter resulting from a U.S. Government investigation would have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

NORTHROP GRUMMAN CORPORATION

Contract Performance Contingencies – Contract performance evaluations may include estimates of costs not contractually agreed to between the customer and the company for matters such as contract changes, negotiated settlements and claims for previously unanticipated contract costs. These estimates are based upon management’s best assessment of the underlying causal events and circumstances, and are included in determining contract performance to the extent of expected recovery based on contractual entitlements and the probability of successful negotiation with the customer. As of June 30, 2005, the amounts are not material individually or in the aggregate.

Income Tax Matters – The Internal Revenue Service has completed its audits of the B-2 program for the years ended December 31, 1997 through December 31, 2000, and has proposed an adjustment that does not affect the company’s income tax liability but could result in an obligation to pay an amount of interest to the Internal Revenue Service that could be significant. The company believes the proposed adjustment will be eliminated or significantly reduced. Accordingly, the company does not believe that the adjustment proposed by the Internal Revenue Service will have a material effect on the company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Environmental Matters – In accordance with company policy on environmental remediation, the estimated cost to complete remediation has been accrued where it is probable that the company will incur such costs in the future to address environmental impacts at currently or formerly owned or leased operating facilities, or at sites where it has been named a Potentially Responsible Party (PRP) by the Environmental Protection Agency, or similarly designated by other environmental agencies. To assess the potential impact on the company’s consolidated financial statements, management estimates the total reasonably possible remediation costs that could be incurred by the company, taking into account currently available facts on each site as well as the current state of technology and prior experience in remediating contaminated sites. These estimates are reviewed periodically and adjusted to reflect changes in facts and technical and legal circumstances. Management estimates that at June 30, 2005, the range of reasonably possible future costs for environmental remediation sites is $270 million to $368 million, of which $276 million is accrued. Factors that could result in changes to the company’s estimate include: modification of planned remedial actions, increase or decrease in the estimated time required to remediate, discovery of more extensive contamination than anticipated, changes in laws and regulations affecting remediation requirements, and improvements in remediation technology. Should other PRPs not pay their allocable share of remediation costs, the company may have to incur costs in addition to those already estimated and accrued. Although management cannot predict whether new information gained as projects progress will materially affect the estimated liability accrued, management does not anticipate that future remediation expenditures will have a material adverse effect on the company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Co-Operative Agreements – In July and August of 2003, Ship Systems executed agreements with the states of Mississippi and Louisiana, respectively, whereby Ship Systems will lease facility improvements and equipment from Mississippi and from a non-profit economic development corporation in Louisiana in exchange for certain commitments by Ship Systems to these states. Under the Mississippi agreement, Ship Systems is required to match the state’s funding with Modernization, and Sustaining & Maintenance expenditures in the amount of $313 million and create up to 2,000 new full-time jobs in Mississippi by December 2009. As of June 30, 2005, $100 million has been appropriated by Mississippi requiring an increase of 1,334 jobs. Under the Louisiana agreement, Ship Systems is required to match the state’s funding with expenditures in the amount of $56 million through 2007, and employ a minimum of 5,200 full-time employees in 16 of the 32 fiscal quarters beginning January 1, 2003, and ending December 31, 2010. As of June 30, 2005, commitments for 10 of the 16 quarters have been fulfilled. Failure by Ship Systems to meet these commitments would result in reimbursement by Ship Systems to Mississippi and Louisiana in accordance with the respective agreements. As of June 30, 2005, management believes that all commitments under the Louisiana and Mississippi agreements have been met, and that all future commitments under these agreements will be met based on the most recent Ship Systems business plan, which includes the company’s current understanding of the customer’s DD(X) acquisition strategy.

NORTHROP GRUMMAN CORPORATION

Financial Arrangements – In the ordinary course of business, the company uses standby letters of credit and guarantees issued by commercial banks and surety bonds issued by insurance companies principally to guarantee the performance on certain contracts and to support the company’s self-insured workers’ compensation plans. At June 30, 2005, there were $472 million of unused stand-by letters of credit, $120 million of bank guarantees, and $537 million of surety bonds outstanding.

Indemnifications – The company has retained certain warranty, environmental and other liabilities in connection with certain divestitures. The settlement of these liabilities is not expected to have a material effect on the company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Related Party Transactions – For all periods presented, the company had no material related party transactions.

12.  STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The company applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion 25 – Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and related interpretations in accounting for awards made under the company’s stock-based compensation plans. When stock options are exercised, the amount of the cash proceeds to the company, along with the related tax benefit, is recorded as an increase to paid-in capital. Compensation expense for restricted performance stock rights and restricted stock rights is estimated and accrued over the vesting period.

On May 16, 2005, the Compensation and Management Development Committee of the company’s board of directors approved accelerating the vesting for all outstanding unvested employee stock options (excluding options held by elected officers), effective September 30, 2005. The accelerated options have a weighted average exercise price of $51 with original vesting through April 2009. The charge associated with the acceleration of vesting is not significant.

The company’s decision to accelerate the vesting of employee stock options was made pursuant to management’s ongoing evaluation of the company’s overall incentive compensation strategy, including type of future stock-based compensation awards. As part of its evaluation, management considered the amount of compensation expense that would otherwise have been recognized in the company’s results of operations upon the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) effective January 1, 2006. The acceleration of employee stock options is expected to increase the company’s pro forma compensation expense for 2005 by approximately $90 million, of which approximately $30 million is included in the pro forma disclosure below, and approximately $60 million will be included in the third quarter pro forma disclosure.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of

Northrop Grumman Corporation

Los Angeles, California

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated condensed statement of financial position of Northrop Grumman Corporation and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2005, and the related consolidated condensed statements of income and comprehensive income for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, and the related consolidated condensed statements of cash flows and changes in shareholders’ equity for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Corporation’s management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to such consolidated condensed interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated statement of financial position of Northrop Grumman Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2004, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, cash flows, and changes in shareholders’ equity for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated March 1, 2005, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated condensed statement of financial position as of December 31, 2004 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated statement of financial position from which it has been derived.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

OVERVIEW

Northrop Grumman provides technologically advanced, innovative products, services, and solutions in defense and commercial electronics, nuclear and non-nuclear shipbuilding, information technology, mission systems, systems integration, and space technology. As a prime contractor, principal subcontractor, partner, or preferred supplier, Northrop Grumman participates in many high-priority defense and commercial technology programs in the United States and abroad. Northrop Grumman conducts most of its business with the U.S. Government, principally the Department of Defense (DoD). The company also conducts business with foreign governments and makes domestic and international commercial sales.

The company is primarily organized into seven business sectors: Electronic Systems, Newport News, Ship Systems, Integrated Systems, Mission Systems, Information Technology, and Space Technology. For financial reporting purposes, each business sector is a reportable segment with the exception of Newport News and Ship Systems, which are aggregated and reported as the Ships segment in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 131 – Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information.

The following discussion should be read along with the company’s 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q.

CONSOLIDATED RESULTS

Selected financial highlights are presented in the table below. The operating margin, income, and earnings per share data for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, have been restated to reflect the reclassification of certain CT businesses and the federal subsidy resulting from the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (see Note 1 to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1).

	Three months ended June 30				Six months ended June 30

Diluted earnings per share		1.00		.82		2.12		1.47
Net cash provided by operating activities		813		610		1,076		873

Sales and Service Revenues

Sales and service revenues for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2005, increased $527 million, or 7 percent, and $816 million, or 6 percent, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2004. The increase in the three-month period reflects growth among all sectors including double-digit growth in the Integrated Systems and Electronic Systems operating segments. The increase in the six-month period also reflects growth among all sectors, including double-digit growth for the Integrated Systems operating segment.

Operating Margin

Operating margin for the three months ended June 30, 2005, increased by $123 million, or 25 percent, over the same period in 2004, primarily due to an increase of $107 million in segment operating performance and lower unallocated expenses and net pension expense.

I-19

NORTHROP GRUMMAN CORPORATION

Operating margin for the six months ended June 30, 2005, increased $280 million, or 30 percent, over the same period in 2004, reflecting an increase of $185 million in segment operating performance and a decrease of $85 million in unallocated expenses. The decrease in unallocated expenses is primarily due to a first quarter 2004 provision of $62 million related to the resolution of the Allison Gas Turbine litigation, as well as lower unrecoverable costs for the 2005 period.

Income from Continuing Operations

Income from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2005, increased $68 million, or 23 percent, over the same period in 2004, primarily reflecting strong operating margin performance. The effective tax rate was 33.9 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2005, compared to 25.5 percent for the same period in 2004, which included $31 million of tax credits related to research and development and export sales activities.

Income from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2005, increased $234 million, or 44 percent, over the same period in 2004. The increase primarily reflects strong segment operating margin performance and the recognition of an after-tax gain of $45 million from the sale of common shares of TRW Automotive Holdings Corp. (TRW Auto) in the first quarter of 2005. The effective tax rate was 33.6 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2005, compared to 29.4 percent for the same period in 2004.

Net Income

Net income for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2005, increased $69 million, or 23 percent, and $242 million, or 45 percent, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2004. The gain on disposal of discontinued operations during the six months ended June 30, 2005, included a $10 million after-tax gain from the divestiture of Teldix GmbH (Teldix) by the Electronic Systems segment.

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended June 30, 2005, increased by $203 million, or 33 percent, as compared with the same period of 2004, primarily due to timing of cash receipts. Net cash from operating activities for the three months ended June 30, 2005, included the receipt of a state tax refund for research and development credits for the years 1988 through 1990 and related interest.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2005, increased by $203 million, or 23 percent, as compared with the same period of 2004, primarily due to timing of cash receipts. Net cash from operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2005, reflects a payment of $99 million for a litigation settlement. Net cash from operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2004, included the receipt of $104 million of federal and state income tax refunds.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES, ESTIMATES, AND JUDGMENTS

The company’s financial statements are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingencies at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates have been prepared on the basis of the most current and best available information. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

There have been no changes in the company’s critical accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2005.

NORTHROP GRUMMAN CORPORATION

SEGMENT OPERATING RESULTS

Segment operating results are discussed below with respect to the following financial measures:

Contract Acquisitions – Contract acquisitions represent orders received during the period for which funding has been contractually obligated by the customer. Contract acquisitions tend to fluctuate from year to year and are determined by the size and timing of new and follow-on orders. In the year that a business is purchased or divested, its existing funded order backlog as of the date of purchase or disposition is reported as an increase or decrease, respectively, to contract acquisitions.

Sales and Service Revenues – Year-to-year sales vary less than contract acquisitions and reflect performance under new and ongoing contracts.

Segment Operating Margin – Segment operating margin reflects the performance of segment contracts and programs. Excluded from this measure are certain costs not directly associated with contract performance, including the portion of pension expense/income that is not currently recognized under CAS, as well as the portion of corporate, legal, environmental, state income tax, other retiree benefits, and other expenses not considered allowable costs under CAS and therefore not allocated to the segments.

Effective January 1, 2005, certain business areas within the Electronic Systems, Ships and Space Technology segments were realigned and some business areas have been renamed. Where applicable, all prior period information has been reclassified to reflect these realignments and references to business areas in the discussion below reflect the new names.

Contract Acquisitions and Sales and Service Revenues in the tables within this section include intercompany amounts that are eliminated in the accompanying Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

As a percentage of segment sales		11.2	%		8.7	%		10.9	%		9.5	%

Contract Acquisitions

Electronic Systems segment contract acquisitions for the three months ended June 30, 2005, decreased $96 million, or 6 percent, as compared with the same period in 2004. The decrease was primarily due to lower incremental funding for a restricted program within the Aerospace Systems business area. Significant acquisitions during the three months ended June 30, 2005 included $116 million of incremental funding for two restricted programs in the Aerospace Systems business area and $79 million for the Eurofighter program in the Defensive & Navigation Systems business area.

Electronic Systems segment contract acquisitions for the six months ended June 30, 2005, decreased $196 million, or 6 percent, as compared with the same period in 2004. The decrease is primarily due to $205 million in backlog foregone as a result of the sale of Teldix. Lower levels of incremental funding for the Aerospace Systems business area in the second quarter of 2005 were offset by accelerated funding for restricted programs in the Naval & Marine Systems business area in the first quarter.

NORTHROP GRUMMAN CORPORATION

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Management is currently evaluating the effect that adoption of new accounting pronouncements may have on the company’s financial position or results of operations in future periods. See Note 2 to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1.

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

Certain statements and assumptions in this report on Form 10-Q contain or are based on “forward-looking” information (that Northrop Grumman believes to be within the definition in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) and involve risks and uncertainties, and include, among others, statements in the future tense, and all statements accompanied by terms such as “believe”, “project,” “expect,” “estimate,” “assume,” “intend”, “anticipate” or variations thereof and similar terms. This information reflects the company’s best estimates when made, but the company expressly disclaims any duty to update this information if new data becomes available or estimates change after the date of this report.

Such “forward-looking” information includes, among other things, projected deliveries, expected funding for various programs, future effective income tax rates, financial guidance regarding sales, segment operating margin, pension expense, employer contributions under pension plans and medical and life benefits plans, and cash flow, and is subject to numerous assumptions and uncertainties, many of which are outside of Northrop Grumman’s control. These include Northrop Grumman’s assumptions with respect to future revenues, expected program performance and cash flows, returns on pension plan assets and variability of pension actuarial and related assumptions, the outcome of litigation and appeals, environmental remediation, divestitures of businesses, successful reduction of debt, effective tax rates and timing and amounts of tax payments, the results of any audit or appeal process with the Internal Revenue Service, and anticipated costs of capital investments, among other things.

Northrop Grumman’s operations are subject to various additional risks and uncertainties resulting from its position as a supplier, either directly or as subcontractor or team member, to the U.S. Government and its agencies as well as to foreign governments and agencies; actual outcomes are dependent upon various factors, including, without limitation, Northrop Grumman’s successful performance of internal plans; government customers’ budgetary constraints; customer changes in short-range and long-range plans; domestic and international competition in both the defense and commercial areas; product performance; continued development and acceptance of new products and, in connection with any fixed price development programs, controlling cost growth in meeting production specifications and delivery rates; performance issues with key suppliers and subcontractors; government import and export policies; acquisition or termination of government contracts; the outcome of political and legal processes; natural disasters and terrorist acts; legal, financial, and governmental risks related to international transactions and global needs for military aircraft, military and civilian electronic systems and support, information technology, naval vessels, space systems and related technologies, as well as other economic, political and technological risks and uncertainties and other risk factors set out in Northrop Grumman’s filings from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including, without limitation, Northrop Grumman reports on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rates – The company is exposed to market risk, primarily related to interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. Financial instruments subject to interest rate risk include fixed-rate long-term debt obligations, variable-rate short-term debt outstanding under the credit agreement, and short-term investments. At June 30, 2005, substantially all borrowings were fixed-rate long-term debt obligations, none of which are callable until maturity (other than make-whole calls). The company’s sensitivity to a 1 percent change in interest rates is tied primarily to its $2.5 billion credit agreement, which had no balance outstanding at June 30, 2005.

I-31

NORTHROP GRUMMAN CORPORATION

Derivatives – The company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. The company may enter into interest rate swap agreements to manage its exposure to interest rate fluctuations. At June 30, 2005, two interest rate swap agreements were in effect but were not significant.

Foreign Currency – The company enters into foreign currency forward contracts to manage foreign currency exchange rate risk related to receipts from customers and payments to suppliers denominated in foreign currencies. At June 30, 2005, the amount of foreign currency forward contracts outstanding was not material. The company does not consider its market risk exposure relating to foreign currency exchange to be material.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The company’s principal executive officer (Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President) and principal financial officer (Corporate Vice President and Chief Financial Officer) have evaluated the company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2005, and have concluded that these controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 USC § 78a et seq) is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. These disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports that it files or submits is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the three months ended June 30, 2005, no change occurred in the company’s internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or is likely to materially affect, the company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

Various claims and legal proceedings arise in the ordinary course of business relating to the company and its properties. The company is a defendant in lawsuits alleging personal injury as a result of exposure to asbestos integrated into its premises and certain historical products. Many of these claims have been dismissed with no payment or resolved for amounts that were not material either individually or in the aggregate. Based upon the information available, the company does not believe that the resolution of any pending proceedings will have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Departments and agencies of the U.S. Government have the authority to investigate various transactions and operations of the company, and the results of such investigations may lead to administrative, civil, or criminal proceedings, the ultimate outcome of which could be fines, penalties, repayments or compensatory or treble damages. U.S. Government regulations provide that certain findings against a contractor may lead to suspension or debarment from future U.S. Government contracts or the loss of export privileges for a company or an operating division or subdivision. Suspension or debarment could have a material adverse effect on the company because of its reliance on government contracts. Based on available information, the company does not believe, but can give no assurance, that any matter resulting from a U.S. Government investigation would have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

(1) On October 26, 2004, the company’s Board of Directors authorized a program to repurchase up to $1 billion of its outstanding common stock to be completed over a twelve to eighteen-month period. Share repurchases take place at management’s discretion and under pre-established non-discretionary programs from time to time, depending on market conditions, in the open market, and in privately negotiated transactions. The company retires its common stock upon repurchase and has not made any purchases of common stock other than in connection with this publicly announced repurchase program.
