Traders should monitor whether margin expansion and cost controls can offset ongoing top-line weakness. The disconnect between declining revenue guidance and rising adjusted EPS suggests leverage in the model, but sustainability depends on backlog conversion and new contract wins.
Price Chart
Executive Summary
SAIC reported mixed Q4 and full-year FY26 results with revenue and GAAP EPS declining year-over-year, but non-GAAP metrics like adjusted EPS and adjusted EBITDA improving. The company raised FY27 adjusted EPS guidance despite projecting continued revenue contraction, citing margin expansion and strong cash flow. Book-to-bill was weak in Q4 but solid for the full year.
Key Financial Metrics
Key Facts
- FY26 revenue declined 3% YoY to $7.26B, driven by contract completions and government shutdown impact
- FY26 GAAP diluted EPS decreased 7% to $7.70, but adjusted diluted EPS rose 18% to $10.75
- Adjusted EBITDA margin improved to 9.7% from 9.5% in prior year
- FY27 guidance calls for revenue of $7.0B–$7.2B (down 3–6% YoY), adjusted EPS of $9.50–$9.70
- Free cash flow increased 16% to $577M; company deployed $524M in capital via buybacks and dividends
- Q4 book-to-bill ratio was weak at 0.3, though trailing twelve-month ratio was healthy at 1.1
Financial Impact
Revenue down $217M YoY, but adjusted EPS up $1.62; FY27 revenue guidance implies further decline of $200M–$400M
Risk Factors
- Persistent revenue decline and weak near-term bookings (0.3 book-to-bill in Q4)
- Guidance assumes continued margin expansion despite revenue contraction
- Heavy reliance on non-GAAP metrics that exclude significant recurring costs like intangible amortization
