Booz Allen Q2 Revenue Slips 3.9% to $2.8B, But EPS Jumps 18% and Guidance Raised
BAH sits 38% above its 52-week low of $59.5.
Summary
Booz Allen posted second-quarter revenue of $2.8 billion, down 3.9% year over year, extending the top-line contraction seen in Q1 when revenue fell 4.2% to $2.8 billion. The bottom line went the other way: adjusted diluted EPS rose 18.1% to $1.76, and the company raised its full-year guidance. Net income for the quarter was $181 million and EPS was $1.50. That mix — shrinking revenue with expanding margins and higher profit — is the same pattern management delivered last quarter, when adjusted EBITDA rose 7.4% despite the sales decline. The raised outlook is the part that matters most; it tells traders management expects the margin gains to hold even as government spending stays tight. A $41 billion backlog signals sustained defense demand. The results landed in an 8-K filed at 10:48 ET, minutes before this wire.
