Research Alert: CFRA Upholds Sell Rating On Shares Of Booz Allen Hamilton Holding Corporation

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We lower our target price to $70 from $72, applying a 10.4x P/E to our FY 28 (Mar.) EPS estimate vs. BAH's three-year historical forward P/E average of 20.9x, reflecting a de-rated government services industry. We maintain our FY 27 EPS at $6.03 and FY 28's at $6.70. Our revenue projections are $11.43B (+2%) in FY 27 and $11.77B (+3%) in FY 28. Management's underwhelming FY 27 guidance reinforces our cautious outlook, as its revenue growth midpoint of 2% and EPS midpoint of $6.18 both fall short of consensus expectations of 3% and $6.25, respectively. We expect Civil to shrink by high-single-digits, acting as a significant drag on overall performance and pressuring the business mix. Furthermore, we believe the reputational damage from the U.S. Treasury contract terminations creates an ongoing overhang that could hinder new business wins. These combined headwinds, a structurally impaired Civil business and lingering reputational risk, validate our view that the stock warrants a discounted valuation multiple.

Booz Allen Hamilton Reports Surprise Fiscal Fourth-Quarter Earnings Growth

Booz Allen Hamilton's (BAH) fiscal fourth-quarter earnings unexpectedly increased year over year, but the technology and management consulting firm reported revenue below market estimates.The company on Friday posted adjusted earnings of $1.78 a share for the quarter ended March, up from $1.61 the year before, defying the consensus on FactSet for a decline to $1.34. The stock rose 4.8% in the most recent premarket activity.Revenue came in at $2.78 billion, down from $2.97 billion in the prior-year quarter, missing the Street's view for $2.87 billion. Excluding billable expenses, revenue decreased 6.8% to $1.91 billion."In a challenging year, Booz Allen delivered strong profitability while continuing to accelerate our transformation," Chief Executive Horacio Rozanski said in a statement. "We're investing in proven growth areas and building tech to create long-term value for our shareholders."Defense revenue ticked down to $1.52 billion from $1.53 billion, while civil slipped to $786 million from $989 million last year. Intelligence revenue increased to $499 million from $458 million on a yearly basis.For fiscal 2027, Booz Allen anticipates adjusted EPS to come in between $6 and $6.35 on a revenue range of $11.2 billion to $11.7 billion. The Street is currently looking for non-GAAP EPS of $6.21 and sales of $11.46 billion. In the previous fiscal year, the company's adjusted EPS improved 2.5% to $6.51, while revenue fell 6.4% to $11.22 billion.The firm said it's seeing accelerating demand across its portfolio and expects continued growth in the national security business.

Research Alert: Bah Delivers Mar-q Eps Beat Through Cost Discipline Despite 6% Revenue Decline

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:BAH reported Mar-Q revenue of $2.78B, missing consensus by 3% and declining 6.4% Y/Y, though adjusted EPS of $1.78 beat consensus by $0.44 and exceeded the prior year's $1.61. Adjusted EBITDA margin expanded 50 bps to 11.1% despite revenue contraction, demonstrating disciplined cost management and operational excellence. We think the bifurcated market dynamics persist, with Civil segment declining 22.5% to $766M while Intelligence showed strength at +9.0% to $499M, and Defense declined modestly by 0.6% to $1.52B. This reinforces ongoing business mix deterioration from higher-margin Civil work toward lower-margin national security contracts. Free cash flow improved 9.3% to $212M with robust $951M full-year generation, enabling $147M in shareholder returns and $219M in strategic investments. Total backlog reached record $38.2B (+3.1% Y/Y), which provides revenue visibility, though quarterly book-to-bill of 0.9x and a declining trailing-12-month ratio of 1.1x from 1.4x indicate softer near-term contract momentum.

"It can't happen [and] it would be unacceptable."The semi-official Iranian Students' News Agency reportedly said that the latest US proposal to Iran has "narrowed the gaps to some extent" between the two sides, although "further reductions require an end to the temptation for war from Washington."West Texas Intermediate crude oil rose 1.9% to $98.19 a barrel before the open, while Brent increased 2.5% to $105.18."The oil market remains overly sensitive to Iran-related headlines, with participants continuing to pin considerable hope on reports that talks between the US and Iran are progressing," ING Bank said in a report on Thursday.Treasury yields were down in premarket action, with the two-year rate retreating 0.7 basis points to 4.08% and the 10-year rate off 2.4 basis points to 4.56%.Shares of IBM (IBM), GlobalFoundries (GFS) and D-Wave Quantum (QBTS) were up pre-bell after being selected for US government funding under the Trump administration's plan to strengthen the country's position in quantum computing.Ross Stores (ROST) rose 5.3% after the discount retailer lifted its full-year outlook and reported better-than-expected fiscal first-quarter results.

It doesn't free up trade routes, reopen factories or melt ice," he said in prepared remarks for an event in North Carolina. "That said, I've been asking myself whether we've entered an era where supply shocks will become more frequent."Gold decreased 0.7% to $4,513 per troy ounce, while bitcoin slipped 0.4% to $77,221.
