  • Company returning £1.4bn to shareholders through buybacks and dividends
  • Big share price gain means potential for upside is more limited

BAE Systems (BA) said it was enjoying “another strong year” of order intake as governments around the world step up spending in response to greater geopolitical risks.

The company has booked another £10bn of orders since releasing half-year results, taking its total so far this year to £30bn.
