Item 9.    Regulation FD Disclosure

 

The press release furnished with the Form 8-K filed by Raytheon Company (the “Company”) on April 22, 2003 was not a correct copy of the press release issued by the Company on that date. Attached as Exhibit 99.1, and furnished pursuant to Item 12 of this Form 8-K/A, is a correct copy of the press release. This Form 8-K/A is being filed to correct the inadvertent inclusion of a phrase in the discussion of the Company’s Space and Airborne Systems first quarter 2003 results in the Form 8-K filed earlier today.

 

The Exhibit attached hereto shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Act of 1934, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference to such filing.
