Exhibit 99.1

Harris Corporation Provides FY 2009 Initial Guidance of $4.00
to $4.10 EPS in Advance of Annual Analyst Meeting

MELBOURNE, Florida, March 5, 2008 — Harris Corporation (NYSE: HRS), an international communications and information technology company, today provided initial GAAP earnings guidance for fiscal year 2009, beginning June 28, 2008, of $4.00 to $4.10 per diluted share, representing an increase of about 16 to 19 percent, compared to the company’s current non-GAAP earnings guidance for fiscal year 2008. Revenue for fiscal year 2009 is expected to increase to a range of $5.7 billion to $5.8 billion, an increase of 8 to 10 percent above current fiscal 2008 guidance. The company announced the initial guidance in advance of its annual analyst meeting, scheduled for March 6-7 in Melbourne, Florida.

Fiscal year 2008 non-GAAP earnings exclude charges related to acquisitions and the formation of Harris Stratex Networks. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures is provided in Table 1 and in the accompanying notes.

“We expect fiscal year 2009 to be another excellent year for Harris,” said Howard L. Lance, chairman, president and chief executive officer. “Our initial guidance is driven by continuing strong demand and expanding worldwide markets for high-reliability, mission-critical communications and information technology products, systems and services.

“We anticipate that growth in fiscal year 2009 will be driven by higher revenue and operating income from all four of our operating segments. In particular, we expect continuing strength in our Defense Communications and Electronics segment, where our RF Communications tactical radio business continues to gain market share and expand the markets that we serve. The U.S. and international opportunities pipeline for secure, networked, software-defined tactical communications remains large and robust. We expect to finish fiscal year 2008 with a substantial backlog, which is expected to drive double-digit revenue growth in RF Communications in fiscal year 2009. In addition, we expect continued growth in our Government Communications Systems business, which will benefit from expanding markets for IT services, from high-reliability, high-speed communications and information networks, and from expansion into new and adjacent markets such as health care, information assurance, and service-oriented architecture.

“We also expect top-line growth and improved operating performance in our two commercial businesses in fiscal year 2009,” Lance continued. “In Broadcast Communications, investments to provide broad capabilities across the entire broadcast value chain have positioned Harris as the ONE^™ source for customers to team with whether they are broadcasting over the air, cable, satellite, the emerging mobile television platforms, or the Internet. Finally, we expect Harris Stratex Networks to produce revenue growth and further gross margin improvements as a result of strong demand for wireless transmission systems in global markets and continued focus on cost reduction.”

Harris will host a live audio webcast and listen-only conference call on Thursday, March 6, at 1 p.m. ET in conjunction with its annual analyst meeting being held in Melbourne, Florida. The webcast and call will include presentations on the company’s business update and strategy review by Mr. Lance, and its financial summary by Gary L.
