Lockheed Martin is pledging to create as many as 500 new high-paying aerospace jobs in Colorado over eight years in exchange for up to $15.5 million in state job-growth tax incentives.
The jobs, which carry an average annual salary of $113,000, are part of Lockheed's Commercial Space division, which moved to the company's Waterton Canyon campus in Jefferson County from Pennsylvania this year. The company is set to open a new commercial space operations center there Wednesday.

The Commercial Space division builds and manages Lockheed's commercial A2100 communications satellites and LM900 imaging satellites used for cellphones, TV and planetary imaging. Additionally, the new operations center has the capability to serve as mission control for up to 50 orbiting satellites.
"We're going to be doing hiring for positions that will support ongoing programs or new programs as we win them, so the incentive will help us as we look to build our workforce to meet the needs of the future," said division head Mike Hamel.
Bringing the commercial work to the same campus that also houses Lockheed's military space and civil interplanetary exploration missions such as the NASA Mars MAVEN mission and the NOAA GOES-R weather satellite allows Lockheed to cross-utilize its workforce for design, manufacturing and testing. That "one-stop shop" capability, along with the cost savings provided by the credits, gives the company and the state a competitive advantage when bidding on jobs, Hamel said.
"Our ability to compete against both U.S. manufacturers, as well as international manufacturers, depends on very short schedules and very price-competitive satellite development," Hamel said. "The more we can do to attract a high-quality, highly skilled workforce and to be very competitive from a price standpoint, is going to be critical."
The incentive package was approved in September by the Colorado Office of Economic Development under the cloaked name of " Project Blue." The secrecy was necessary while the company considered offers from other states, but Colorado won in the end, said Colorado OED director Ken Lund.
"We find in most industries that Colorado is very competitive from a cost standpoint, and we have a very highly educated workforce here," Lund said. "Companies are always monetizing the cost of doing business, and this incentive is going to moderate the cost of doing business."

The following B/E Aerospace (BEAV) conference call took place on October 22, 2014, 08:00 AM ET. This is a transcript of that earnings call:
Company Participants
Other Participants
I would now like to introduce B/E Aerospace's Vice President of Investor Relations, Greg Powell. Mr. Powell, you may begin your conference. Greg Powell (VP of IR): Thank you, Candace. Good morning, and thank you for joining us this morning. Today, we are here to discuss our financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2014. By now, you should have received a copy of the news release we issued earlier this morning. If you haven't received it, you'll find a copy on our website. We will begin with remarks from Amin Khoury, our Founder, Chairman, and Co-Chief Executive Officer of B/E Aerospace, and then we will take your questions. For today's call, we have prepared a few slides to help you follow our discussion. You can find our presentation on the Investor Relations page of the B/E Aerospace website at BEAerospace.com. In addition, copies of the slides will be posted on our website for your to refer to after our call. Joining us on the call this morning are Werner Lieberherr, President and Co-Chief Executive Officer, and Tom McCaffrey, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. As always, in our prepared remarks and our responses to your questions, we rely on the Safe Harbor exemptions under the various Securities Acts. And our Safe Harbor statements in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We will address questions following our prepared remarks. At that time, Candace will provide instructions. Please limit your questions to no more than two at a time. And now, I will turn the call over to Amin Khoury. Amin Khoury (Founder, Chairman & Co-CEO): Thank you, Greg, and good morning, everyone. As we get started this morning, I'd like to briefly highlight a number of important third-quarter events, items, and accomplishments. First, I'm pleased to report our strong third-quarter 2014 operating results, exclusive of charges. Revenues were up 24%, adjusted operating earnings increased 26%, and adjusted earnings per share was up 63%. That would be 29% using a comparable effective tax rate. Second, on the marketing front, we reported our best ever awards and orders for the nine-month period for our Commercial Aircraft and Business Jet segments. Werner will share specifics relative to new awards and orders in a few minutes. And in fact, we'll report some wonderful news which we received earlier this morning. Third, our plans to spinoff KLX from B/E Aerospace are progressing ahead of earlier expectations. On August 29, we filed our Form 10 registration statement with the SEC, and on October 10, we filed the First Amendment relative thereto. Subject to customary conditions, we now expect to be able to affect the distribution of the shares of KLX to B/E Aerospace shareholders by the end of 2014. Fourth, I'm pleased to welcome Joe Lower as Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, and a member of our B/E Aerospace executive leadership team who will be working directly with Werner Lieberherr and me. Joe's strong financial background and deep knowledge of the aerospace industry, having been with Boeing over the last 12 years, will serve Joe well in his new role at B/E Aerospace. I'm also pleased to welcome Mike Senft as KLX Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, and Treasurer. Mike is a member of the KLX executive leadership team, and will be working directly with Tom McCaffrey and me. He has been a member of the B/E Aerospace Inc Board of Directors since February 2012, and, for more than 20 years, Mike has been a highly valued advisor to B/E Aerospace. Lastly, we announced this morning that we currently estimate that we will incur, during the second half of 2014, debt redemption costs of approximately $235 million, including the write-off of unamortized debt issue costs; approximately $43 million in legal, accounting and advisory costs; and approximately $67 million related to international tax initiatives. We also expect to incur business repositioning and separation costs of approximately $94 million.
