Booz Allen Hamilton Holding Corporation (BAH)

The company now

Booz Allen Hamilton reported second-quarter fiscal 2027 revenue of $2.8 billion on 23 October 2026, down 3.9 percent from a year earlier 2.

Net income rose 3.4 percent to $181 million, and the company raised its fiscal 2027 guidance for adjusted diluted earnings per share to a range of $6.50 to $6.70 from $6.00 to $6.35 2.

The 10-Q says the drop came mainly from a slowed buying season a year earlier, which delayed program starts this year, mostly at civil customers, and led to fewer staff and lower billable expenses 1.

Billable expenses are mostly subcontractor and travel costs passed through to customers, and they carry lower margins 2.

Total backlog, the value of contracted work including options not yet exercised, was $41 billion, up 1.9 percent from a year earlier, and orders in the quarter ran at 1.5 times revenue 21.

The company acquired the cybersecurity firm Defy Security on 6 April 2026 for $235 million, and the defense technology business Ultra Mission Solutions on 24 August 2026 for about $729 million 1.

An open question is federal funding, which runs on a continuing resolution through 11 December 2026, and the company says a prolonged shutdown could hurt its business 1.
