Not on a net basis. RTX has 0.5% more shares outstanding than twelve months ago. Whatever it bought back did not cover the new shares it issued. Over five years the share count is down 10.0%.
Net of every new share it issued, RTX has 171.7 million fewer shares than at its 2020 peak. That is 11.3% of the company. Since fiscal 2021 alone it bought back about 202.2 million shares, while the count fell by 144.6 million. The difference went to employees and other new shares.
1,347,758,144 shares, as of June 30, 2026, from the cover page of its latest 10-Q. At the 2020 peak it had 1,519,478,134.
Each share is a bigger slice of the company. Someone who held RTX stock in 2020 owns 1.1 times as much of the business today without buying another share. Whether that was a good use of cash depends on the price paid.
