Science Applications International Corp's annual 10-K filing reveals a mixed financial performance for fiscal year 2026, with revenues and net income declining, but diluted EPS increasing significantly due to substantial share repurchases. The company also completed a notable acquisition and refinanced a significant portion of its debt. A key risk factor remains the ongoing criminal investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice, Antitrust Division, which could lead to unquantifiable fines or penalties. The permanent appointment of James C. Reagan as CEO provides leadership stability. Investors should weigh the positive impact of capital allocation and strategic growth initiatives against the revenue contraction and the unresolved legal risks.
