Leidos má Zacks Rank 4 po snížení odhadu EPS
LDOS Leidos Holdings
FMP Stock News 78
Original source text
Leidos (LDOS - Free Report) has been one of the most searched-for stocks on Zacks.com lately. So, you might want to look at some of the facts that could shape the stock's performance in the near term.

Over the past month, shares of this security and engineering company have returned +3.6%, compared to the Zacks S&P 500 composite's no change. During this period, the Zacks Computers - IT Services industry, which Leidos falls in, has gained 8%. The key question now is: What could be the stock's future direction?

While media releases or rumors about a substantial change in a company's business prospects usually make its stock 'trending' and lead to an immediate price change, there are always some fundamental facts that eventually dominate the buy-and-hold decision-making.

Revisions to Earnings EstimatesHere at Zacks, we prioritize appraising the change in the projection of a company's future earnings over anything else. That's because we believe the present value of its future stream of earnings is what determines the fair value for its stock.

Our analysis is essentially based on how sell-side analysts covering the stock are revising their earnings estimates to take the latest business trends into account. When earnings estimates for a company go up, the fair value for its stock goes up as well. And when a stock's fair value is higher than its current market price, investors tend to buy the stock, resulting in its price moving upward. Because of this, empirical studies indicate a strong correlation between trends in earnings estimate revisions and short-term stock price movements.

For the current quarter, Leidos is expected to post earnings of $3.06 per share, indicating a change of +0.3% from the year-ago quarter. The Zacks Consensus Estimate has changed -2% over the last 30 days.

The consensus earnings estimate of $12.36 for the current fiscal year indicates a year-over-year change of +3.1%. This estimate has changed +0.7% over the last 30 days.

For the next fiscal year, the consensus earnings estimate of $12.11 indicates a change of -2% from what Leidos is expected to report a year ago. Over the past month, the estimate has changed -4.1%.

With an impressive externally audited track record, our proprietary stock rating tool -- the Zacks Rank -- is a more conclusive indicator of a stock's near-term price performance, as it effectively harnesses the power of earnings estimate revisions. The size of the recent change in the consensus estimate, along with three other factors related to earnings estimates, has resulted in a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell) for Leidos.

The chart below shows the evolution of the company's forward 12-month consensus EPS estimate:

12 Month EPS

Revenue Growth ForecastEven though a company's earnings growth is arguably the best indicator of its financial health, nothing much happens if it cannot raise its revenues. It's almost impossible for a company to grow its earnings without growing its revenue for long periods. Therefore, knowing a company's potential revenue growth is crucial.

In the case of Leidos, the consensus sales estimate of $4.71 billion for the current quarter points to a year-over-year change of +5.3%. The $18.33 billion and $18.8 billion estimates for the current and next fiscal years indicate changes of +6.7% and +2.6%, respectively.

Last Reported Results and Surprise HistoryLeidos reported revenues of $4.56 billion in the last reported quarter, representing a year-over-year change of +7.2%. EPS of $3.26 for the same period compares with $3.21 a year ago.

Compared to the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $4.36 billion, the reported revenues represent a surprise of +4.5%. The EPS surprise was +12.41%.

The company beat consensus EPS estimates in each of the trailing four quarters. The company topped consensus revenue estimates three times over this period.

ValuationNo investment decision can be efficient without considering a stock's valuation. Whether a stock's current price rightly reflects the intrinsic value of the underlying business and the company's growth prospects is an essential determinant of its future price performance.

While comparing the current values of a company's valuation multiples, such as price-to-earnings (P/E), price-to-sales (P/S), and price-to-cash flow (P/CF), with its own historical values helps determine whether its stock is fairly valued, overvalued, or undervalued, comparing the company relative to its peers on these parameters gives a good sense of the reasonability of the stock's price.

The Zacks Value Style Score (part of the Zacks Style Scores system), which pays close attention to both traditional and unconventional valuation metrics to grade stocks from A to F (an A is better than a B; a B is better than a C; and so on), is pretty helpful in identifying whether a stock is overvalued, rightly valued, or temporarily undervalued.

Leidos is graded A on this front, indicating that it is trading at a discount to its peers. Click here to see the values of some of the valuation metrics that have driven this grade.

Bottom LineThe facts discussed here and much other information on Zacks.com might help determine whether or not it's worthwhile paying attention to the market buzz about Leidos. However, its Zacks Rank #4 does suggest that it may underperform the broader market in the near term.

Leidos vybral X-Bow pro raketové motory nové střely americké armády
LDOS Leidos Holdings
FMP Stock News 88
Original source text
, /PRNewswire/ -- X-Bow Systems Inc (X-Bow®), a U.S. manufacturer of solid rocket motors (SRMs), today announced from the Association of the United States Army (AUSA) Annual Meeting and Exposition, that it has been selected by Leidos (NYSE: LDOS) to develop and produce the booster motors for the U.S. Army's new Low-Cost Containerized Munition (LCCM).

Under the agreement, X-Bow will move through design, qualification testing, and static fires ahead of full-rate production of booster motors at scale in 2027.

X-Bow tests a solid rocket motor in early 2026 (Photo-X-Bow Systems) The award places X-Bow inside one of the fastest-growing segments of U.S. defense spending: the drive to rebuild a domestic solid rocket motor industrial base long concentrated among a handful of large suppliers and to field precision munitions in volume. The LCCM program advances the Department of War's "Arsenal of Freedom" initiative, under which Leidos will produce the munitions in large quantities.

"Modern conflict is decided by how many rounds you can put downrange, not how exquisite each one is," said X-Bow Founder and Chief Executive Officer Jason Hundley. "Partnering with Leidos on the Army's low-cost cruise missile lets us do what we were built to do—turn out combat-ready rocket motors at production scale, fast."

The award is the latest of six new propulsion programs X-Bow has been selected for in 2026, spanning the Navy, Army, and the Missile Defense Agency. This builds on the company's recently completed first major production contract, which delivered more than 2,100 combat-ready rocket motors.

Meet with X-Bow at AUSA, Oct. 12-14 at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in Washington, D.C. To schedule a briefing, contact [email protected].

About X-Bow Systems
X-Bow is solving the nation's munitions crisis by breaking the 50-year bottleneck in solid rocket motor (SRM) production. The company leverages its proprietary additive manufacturing to produce affordable, scalable SRMs that power a new generation of missiles, interceptors, and space launch vehicles. Reflecting strong demand, the company's revenue and backlog have more than doubled since 2023. Backed by prominent aerospace and venture capital investors, the company is headquartered in Albuquerque, New Mexico, with advanced manufacturing and test sites across the country.

Leidos spouští svou AI pro nonstop triáž kybernetických alertů
LDOS Leidos Holdings
FMP Stock News 78

UpHold Effect™ Agentic SOC Automation helps federal security teams move from alert overload to clear guidance and automated response while keeping human analysts in control.

, /PRNewswire/ -- Leidos (NYSE:LDOS) is introducing UpHold Effect™ Agentic SOC Automation, a capability that uses AI agents around the clock to help security operations center teams identify threats requiring immediate action amid a deluge of cyber alerts.  

Why it matters: Cyber teams must be quicker to address real threats as they're countering adversaries trying to overwhelm defenses with automation and AI.

What it provides:

Around-the-clock investigation: AI agents can triage alerts, gather context and assemble findings for analysts to review. Integration with existing tools: The capability is designed to work with current security technology rather than require agencies to replace their existing systems. Customer-controlled autonomy: Organizations decide what the AI can investigate, recommend or act on. Auditable decisions: Recommendations and actions create records showing what the AI observed, concluded and proposed or did. Federal deployment options: A FedRAMP Class D (High) deployment option is available. The capability can also provide a pathway toward Department of war Impact Level 4 and 5 environments with appropriate government sponsorship. How it works: UpHold Effect™ Agentic SOC Automation works across an organization's existing security tools to investigate alerts, gather information and recommend next steps.

Customers determine how much authority the AI receives based on their mission, risk tolerance and governance requirements. Expert perspective: "Cyber teams need to keep pace with threats without giving up control," said Steve Hull, president of Leidos Digital.

"UpHold Effect™ Agentic SOC Automation can take on more of the investigative workload while giving agencies the flexibility to decide when AI recommends an action and when it is allowed to act." The big picture: Leidos combines commercial AI technology with cybersecurity experience, including operating some of the government's largest security operations centers.

The company integrates and configures the capability around each customer's mission, security environment and governance requirements.  The bottom line: UpHold Effect™ Agentic SOC Automation enables teams to detect and respond to threats faster, while giving analysts more time to focus on the threats that require human judgment.

About UpHold Effect™

Agentic SOC Automation is a feature within UpHold Effect™, Leidos' offering for agentic cyber response and part of the UpHold™ product suite.

UpHold Effect™ applies automation across areas including adversary detection, cyber deception, cloud security and threat hunting while allowing customers to set governance and operational controls.

Leidos získal armádní zakázku na program ARTEMIS
LDOS Leidos Holdings
FMP Stock News 86
Original source text
, /PRNewswire/ -- In today's rapidly evolving security environment, military commanders rely on timely, high-quality intelligence to make critical decisions. Under a recent U.S. Army contract, Leidos (NYSE: LDOS) will continue providing the Airborne Reconnaissance and Targeting Exploitation Multi-Mission Intelligence System (ARTEMIS), delivering rapidly deployable airborne intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) capabilities across Europe and, when needed, other regions around the world.

Valued at up to $127 million, the award extends ARTEMIS ISR operations within the U.S. European Command area of responsibility through the summer of 2027 with two additional option years. Leidos has supported the mission since 2020, helping provide commanders with the real-time intelligence needed to detect threats, maintain situational awareness, and make faster, more informed operational decisions.

"ARTEMIS combines the flexibility of commercial aircraft with military-grade sensing to deliver timely intelligence wherever commanders need it," said Jason McCarthy, Leidos senior vice president, Airborne & Mission Solutions. "As threats continue to evolve, we're providing the Army with a proven, rapidly deployable ISR capability that helps commanders stay ahead of the fight and make decisions with greater confidence."

Leidos provides a comprehensive Contractor-Owned, Contractor-Operated (CO/CO) ISR capability built around a modified Bombardier Challenger 650 aircraft. The company provides the aircraft, mission systems, flight operations, and support services. Originally fielded as a technology demonstrator, ARTEMIS has evolved into a globally deployable, high-altitude ISR platform that strengthens the Army's intelligence collection capabilities while providing the flexibility to support operations across multiple theaters.

This award advances Leidos' NorthStar 2030 strategy by expanding the company's Defense Tech and Mission & Digital Solutions portfolio. Through mission-critical sensing, airborne ISR, and decision advantage capabilities, Leidos continues to help defense customers maintain operational readiness and respond to increasingly complex security challenges.

The contract was awarded through the Army's Common Hardware Systems-6 (CHS) next-generation prime contract for the rapid procurement of C5ISR hardware solutions and services. CHS-6 provides the U.S. Army, all U.S. military service branches, and federal agencies with a rapid tactical and operational equipment and service procurement experience.

Leidos dokončila akvizici ENTRUST za 2,4 miliardy USD
LDOS Leidos Holdings
FMP Stock News 78
Original source text
Energy scarcity is quickly becoming a major concern. As demand keeps climbing, countries are struggling to find enough power capacity to keep pace with the needs of businesses, consumers, and now data centers. To address the problem, Leidos (LDOS +0.09%) just closed a $2.4 billion acquisition of grid infrastructure, a move that could make the tech company a major player in the artificial intelligence energy market.

As the business expands into energy infrastructure, the question for investors is whether Leidos's improving growth story makes the stock worth a closer look.

Image source: Getty Images.

Leidos enters a new phase of growth Back in August, Leidos reported nearly $4.6 billion in revenue, up 7% year over year. Its adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) margin came in at 13.8%, while cash flow from operating activities surged 63% to $793 million. This revenue growth resulted from stronger demand for defense tech products, energy and air traffic management solutions, and intelligence mission support.

Growth was also supported by roughly $5 billion in new contract awards, which gives investors better visibility into future revenue. All of this gave management more confidence in the future, leading to an increase in full-year 2026 guidance. Leidos now expects revenue of between $18.2 billion and $18.4 billion and diluted earnings per share of $12.20 to $12.50 on a non-GAAP (adjusted) basis.

Beyond its main business segments, the company has been building out a new growth driver: energy.

The $2.4 billion acquisition behind Leidos's energy expansion Leidos recently completed its $2.4 billion acquisition of ENTRUST Solutions Group, significantly expanding its energy infrastructure business. The deal roughly doubles the company's presence in the energy infrastructure market and adds more than 3,100 professionals with deep expertise in power grids and natural gas infrastructure. It also broadens Leidos's engineering capabilities and its customer relationships across the U.S.

That puts the company in a much stronger position as a provider of power engineering and grid modernization services, helping utilities upgrade aging infrastructure, improve reliability, and meet growing electricity demand.

More importantly, the deal supports the company's long-term growth strategy by making energy infrastructure a larger part of its NorthStar 2030 plan, which focuses on five growth areas: defense, health services, cybersecurity, energy infrastructure, and mission software.

Yes, margins face near-term pressure, but it appears temporary. Net income and earnings per share were dragged lower by costs tied to the ENTRUST acquisition, the pending Analogic joint venture, and NorthStar 2030 restructuring.

As these costs roll off, margins should improve, strengthening the investment case for Leidos.

Is Leidos worth buying after the ENTRUST deal? Right now, 18 Wall Street analysts rate Leidos a moderate buy. One-year price targets suggest potential upside reaching 75%, and it's easy to see why. Energy scarcity is becoming a much bigger theme as hyperscalers build out AI data centers, turning power capacity into a real constraint.

And the company's acquisition of ENTRUST is perhaps the most significant near- to mid-term catalyst. The acquisition strengthens Leidos's position in energy infrastructure. But beyond that, it supports the company's NorthStar 2030 strategy, giving it greater exposure to high-growth segments across multiple industries and markets.

And with a $2.4 billion bet on the future of power infrastructure, the company could see explosive growth as hyperscalers ramp up power demand, potentially making Leidos one of the biggest under-the-radar AI plays over the next decade.

If the ENTRUST integration works out and revenue flows through to the bottom line, this stock will likely perform well, but if the integration drags on longer than expected or returns on the acquisition disappoint, Leidos could just as quickly underperform.

These results reflect our team's 24/7 dedication to making that possible," said DJ LeGoff, a retired Navy captain and the Navy and Marine Corps portfolio leader at Leidos.

This award supports Leidos' NorthStar 2030 strategy and its focus on digital modernization, cyber capabilities and mission software.

Leidos: Seahawk poprvé s údernou skupinou letadlové lodě
LDOS Leidos Holdings
FMP Stock News 78
Original source text
, /PRNewswire/ -- Leidos (NYSE: LDOS) maritime autonomy recently reached two significant milestones supporting U.S. Navy operations, with Sea Hunter at Rim of the Pacific 2026 (RIMPAC) and Seahawk operating with the USS Theodore Roosevelt Carrier Strike Group.

Why it matters: The milestones reinforce the growing role of autonomous vessels and mark a milestone in moving these systems from experimentation to the U.S. Navy fleet.

The MUSV Seahawk is the first medium uncrewed surface vessel to deploy operationally with a carrier strike group. The appearance of U.S. Department of War (DoW) visual information does not imply or constitute DoW endorsement. At RIMPAC 2026

Sea Hunter, originally developed by Leidos, participated in RIMPAC as the exercise's only Medium Unmanned Surface Vessel (MUSV).

Powered by the Leidos Autonomous Vessel Architecture (LAVA), Sea Hunter:

Operated autonomously more than 2,000 nautical miles from Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, to San Diego, California Demonstrated autonomous surveillance Demonstrated manned-unmanned teaming, operating as part of a larger naval force as well as a stand-alone platform With the USS Theodore Roosevelt Carrier Strike Group

Seahawk is operating alongside crewed naval forces as the first MUSV to deploy operationally with a carrier strike group.

Operating within the strike group's communications, command-and-control and operational framework, Seahawk's capabilities include:

Autonomous navigation and perception Collision avoidance: Compliance with International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (COLREGs) and hazard avoidance Keep Out Zone avoidance: Automatically navigates around designated restricted areas Communications failover and remote control: Maintains control through alternate communications paths GPS-denied navigation: Followed commanded waypoints without GPS and reintegrated GPS while remaining on track Expert perspective

"Sea Hunter and Seahawk show what more than a decade of operating autonomy at sea brings to the mission," said Mike Rickels, Leidos senior vice president for Maritime. "Real-world operations validate performance while providing lessons that further refine autonomy for future missions."

The technology

Sea Hunter and Seahawk are powered by LAVA, the modular software that enables autonomous navigation, mission execution, obstacle avoidance and other critical functions. It also provides a common autonomy foundation that can support different vessels and mission requirements.

By the numbers

Across its autonomous maritime portfolio, Leidos vessels and autonomy software have accumulated:

Over 200,000 nautical miles of autonomous operation 14,000 hours of safe autonomous operation More than a decade of autonomous maritime development and operational experience The big picture

Leidos' experience extends beyond autonomous navigation. In 2021, the Leidos-built MUSV Ranger, operating with LAVA, test-fired an SM-6 Standard Missile from a modular launch system as part of the Navy's Ghost Fleet Overlord program.

Together, Sea Hunter, Seahawk and Ranger demonstrate the breadth of Leidos maritime autonomy across vessels, missions and operating environments.

Key Takeaways Leidos raised 2026 revenue guidance to $18.20B-$18.40B and EPS guidance to $12.20-$12.50.Defense posted a 2.2 book-to-bill ratio, with a $12B Defense Tech pipeline over the next year.LDOS expects Health revenues near Q2 levels after VBA incentive payments were suspended for the rest of 2026. Leidos Holdings, Inc. (LDOS - Free Report) used its fiscal second-quarter call to emphasize that faster Defense, Homeland and Intelligence & Digital growth is offsetting pressure in Health. Management raised revenue, earnings and cash flow guidance despite changes in the Veterans Benefits Administration medical-exam business.

The call gave investors more detail on defense-tech scaling, the VBA recompete and how agency in-sourcing could reshape Leidos’ role in health-system integration.

LDOS Raises the Floor on 2026 GuidanceExecutive vice president and CFO Chris Cage said fiscal 2026 revenue guidance is now $18.20-$18.40 billion, while non-GAAP earnings guidance rose to $12.20-$12.50 per share.

Cage raised operating cash flow guidance to approximately $1.85 billion. The adjusted EBITDA margin outlook remains in the mid-13% range, and the guidance excludes the pending Security Enterprise Solutions joint venture with Analogic.

Second-quarter non-GAAP earnings of $3.26 per share topped the $2.90 consensus mark. Revenues of $4.56 billion exceeded the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $4.36 billion.

Leidos Defense Tech Builds ScaleCEO Tom Bell said Defense posted a 2.2 book-to-bill ratio in the quarter and 1.9 over the trailing 12 months. He also cited a $12 billion pipeline of Defense Tech opportunities over the next year.

Bell highlighted low-cost containerized munitions, the small cruise missile, IFPC, space-sensor payloads, autonomous vessels and counter-UAS capabilities. Leidos plans to deliver 3,000 containerized munitions by 2030 under its framework agreement.

Cage said profitability should improve as programs mature and production volumes rise. Bell added that management can see double-digit profitability and double-digit revenue CAGR over time in Defense Tech.

LDOS’ Health Reset Focuses on VBABell said the VA suspended incentive payments for all vendors in the medical disability examination program for the rest of 2026. He said the change is incorporated into the higher companywide guidance.

Cage expects Health revenues to remain near second-quarter levels for the balance of the year, with non-GAAP operating margins around 20%. Management views the fourth-quarter run rate as the starting point for 2027.

A BNP Paribas analyst pressed for recompete clarity. Bell said Leidos expects a draft request for proposals shortly, formal bids near year-end and customer decisions in early 2027, with extensions providing continuity into next year.

Leidos Adapts to Agency In-SourcingA Melius Research analyst asked whether the next phase of MHS GENESIS signaled a broader reduction in systems-integrator roles. Bell said agencies are exploring more in-sourcing and direct commercial-software purchases.

Bell maintained that Leidos can shift toward higher-level mission integration while continuing to maintain and enhance MHS GENESIS. Cage said negotiations are continuing because the customer lacks capacity to absorb all current activities.

A JPMorgan analyst asked about fixed-price work. CEO Bell and CFO Cage said customers are increasingly requesting outcome-based contracts, a model they believe fits Leidos’ software, cyber and mission-technology offerings.

LDOS’ Cash Flow Supports Capital ChoicesCage emphasized second-quarter operating cash flow of $793 million and free cash flow of $761 million. Lower expected capital spending, now closer to $250 million, lifted implied full-year free cash flow guidance by about $150 million.

Bell reiterated that Leidos remains a low-capital-intensity business, with capital expenditures generally targeted at 1% to 1.5% of revenues, even as it funds selected Defense Tech programs.

Leidos paid down $300 million of commercial paper, completed a $66 million open-market repurchase and put a new board authorization in place. Bell said expensive acquisition targets favor a balanced approach to investment, repurchases and dividends.

Leidos Leans on Portfolio BalanceManagement’s tone was confident but centered on execution. Defense and Homeland are carrying more of the growth load while Health moves through contract and incentive changes.

The priorities are converting bookings into revenues, protecting cash generation and securing the VBA franchise without slowing investment in defense tech, cyber and energy infrastructure.

Zacks Signals for LDOSLDOS carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), alongside Value and Growth Scores of A, a Momentum Score of B and a VGM Score of A. The Style Scores indicate favorable value, growth and momentum characteristics, while the Rank carries a Hold stance. You can see the complete list of today’s Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.

The combination is constructive but lacks the stronger signal associated with Zacks Rank #1 or #2 (Buy) stocks paired with A or B Style Scores. The Zacks Rank can change as estimates are revised after the just-reported results.

Management believes that these non-GAAP measures provide another representation of Leidos' results of operations and financial condition, including its ability to comply with financial covenants. See Non-GAAP Financial Measures at the end of this press release for more information and a reconciliation of our selected reported results to these non-GAAP measures.

Revenues for the quarter were $4.56 billion, up 7% compared to the second quarter of 2025, including 4% organically. Revenues grew year-over-year due to increased customer demand for defense tech products, energy and air traffic management solutions, and intelligence mission support.

For the second quarter, net income was $356 million, or $2.81 per diluted share. Net income and diluted EPS were both down 9% and 7%, respectively, year-over-year; net income margin was 7.8% compared to 9.2% in the second quarter of 2025. Net income and diluted EPS for the quarter reflect $29 million in costs associated with the acquisition of ENTRUST Solutions Group ("Entrust") and the pending joint venture with Analogic Corporation, as well as restructuring costs associated with the NorthStar 2030 re-alignment. Adjusting for these and certain other items, non-GAAP net income decreased 1% year-over-year, to $413 million for the second quarter, and non-GAAP diluted EPS increased 2% to $3.26.

In addition, adjusted EBITDA was $631 million for the second quarter, down 2% year-over-year. Adjusted EBITDA margin of 13.8% decreased from 15.2% in the second quarter of 2025. Profitability in the current quarter reflected excellent program execution and disciplined cost management across the portfolio; profitability in the year-ago quarter benefited from several one-time, non-operational gains, including a $25 million insurance reimbursement for legal costs.

CASH FLOW SUMMARY

Net cash provided by operating activities for the quarter was $793 million for an operating cash flow conversion ratio of 224%. After adjusting for property, equipment, and software payments, quarterly free cash was $761 million for a free cash flow conversion ratio of 185%.

For the quarter, Leidos used $38 million in investing activities, including $32 million in property, equipment and software payments. Leidos used $423 million in financing activities, consisting primarily of $300 million in debt paydown and $127 million returned to shareholders, including $72 million in share repurchases and $55 million as part of a regular quarterly cash dividend program. As of July 3, 2026, Leidos had $748 million in cash and cash equivalents and $6.0 billion of debt.

NEW BUSINESS AWARDS

Net bookings totaled $4.9 billion in the quarter, representing a book-to-bill ratio of 1.1. As a result, backlog at the end of the quarter was $48.7 billion, of which $10.2 billion was funded. Trailing-twelve-month book-to-bill of 1.1 resulted in year-over-year growth in total and funded backlog of 5% and 44%, respectively. Quarterly bookings included several key awards:

Avionics Intermediate Shop (AIS) Production Support Integration (PIS). The U.S. Air Force Sustainment Center awarded Leidos a $475 million follow-on AIS PIS contract to manage the computerized diagnostic system that fixes the F-16 fighter jets. The company will deliver independent systems engineering, resolve complex component shortages, and manage original equipment manufacturer subcontracts. This work ensures sustained mission readiness of F-16 fleets for the U.S. Air Force, European, and foreign partners. General Services Administration (GSA) Military OneSource. Leidos secured a $456 million contract from the GSA to manage the Military OneSource program over the next four years. Under this agreement, Leidos will deliver comprehensive 24/7 well-being services, including confidential counseling, tax support, and relocation tools to more than 4.7 million service members and their families worldwide. This strategic win further cements Leidos as a leading provider of global military health and managed health services. U.S. Air Force Electronic Warfare Mission Support. Leidos received a $350 million contract modification to provide additional high-end technical support for the U.S. Air Force Material Command. The company will supply additional units of its advanced low-band surveillance radar infrastructure alongside specialized signal-processing software. These mission-critical capabilities are engineered to defeat adversary low-observable assets and mitigate heavy electronic countermeasures, providing defense networks with the definitive, high-fidelity threat intelligence required for modern multi-domain operations. Defense Health Agency (DHA) Reserve Health Readiness Program (RHRP) 3.1. Leidos will maintain uninterrupted medical and dental exams for U.S. military reservists under a potential 30-month, $325 million contract modification while the DHA finalizes its long-term transition strategy for RHRP. Customs Border Patrol (CBP) Medium Energy Mobile (MEM) Systems. Leidos secured a five-year, $270 million single-award indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract from CBP to deliver up to 100 MEM Systems. These flexible, non-intrusive inspection units scan vehicles and cargo for contraband, drugs, and weapons and will be deployed at various points of entry across the U.S. This award will align to the Leidos Security Enterprise Solutions and Analogic Corporation joint venture upon its formation. Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Multi-Service Advanced Capability Hypersonics Test Bed (MACH-TB) 2.0. The NSWC awarded Leidos an $88 million other transaction authority (OTA) contract to develop experimental hypersonic glide vehicles to serve as real-world testbeds for advancing high-speed flight technologies.

For information regarding adjusted EBITDA margin and non-GAAP diluted EPS, see the related explanations and reconciliations to GAAP measures included elsewhere in this release.

Leidos does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted EBITDA margins or non-GAAP diluted EPS to net income margin or diluted EPS due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation. Because certain deductions for non-GAAP exclusions used to calculate projected net income margin or diluted EPS may vary significantly based on actual events, Leidos is not able to forecast on a GAAP basis with reasonable certainty all deductions needed in order to provide a GAAP calculation of projected net income at this time. The amounts of these deductions may be material and, therefore, could result in projected net income margin and diluted EPS being materially less than what may be implied by projected adjusted EBITDA margins and non-GAAP diluted EPS.

CONFERENCE CALL INFORMATION

Leidos management will discuss operations and financial results in an earnings conference call beginning at 8 A.M. eastern time on August 4, 2026. A live audio broadcast of the conference call along with a supplemental presentation will be available to the public through links on the Leidos Investor Relations website (http://ir.leidos.com).

Beginning fiscal 2026, we completed a realignment of our reporting structure, which resulted in the identification of four reportable segments: Intelligence & Digital, Health, Homeland and Defense. Additionally, we separately present the unallocable costs associated with corporate functions as Corporate. We commenced operating and reporting under the new organizational structure effective the first day of fiscal 2026. As a result of this change, prior year segment results have been recast to reflect the current reportable segment structure.

Intelligence & Digital

Intelligence & Digital revenues grew 6% year-over-year to $1.50 billion driven by recent contract awards and increased volumes for Intelligence Community mission support, as well as $9 million from Kudu Dynamics through May 23, 2026 (12 months from the close of the acquisition). Operating income margin was 9.5% compared to 9.6% in the prior year quarter, and non-GAAP operating income margin was 10.1%, unchanged from the prior year quarter. 

Health

Health revenues of $1.09 billion decreased by 8% compared to the prior year quarter. Health operating income margin for the quarter was 23.4%, compared to 25.8% in the prior year quarter, and non-GAAP operating income margin was 23.8%, compared to 26.3% in the prior year quarter. The declines in revenues and margins were primarily driven by lower medical disability exam volumes.

Homeland

Homeland revenues of $1.02 billion increased by 32% compared to the prior year quarter. Revenue growth was driven by continued strong demand in the Air Traffic and Energy businesses, and included $141 million from the acquisition of ENTRUST Solutions. Operating income margin for the quarter was 9.0%, compared to 8.3% in the prior year quarter, and non-GAAP operating margin increased to 12.1% from 9.3% in the prior year quarter. Profitability enhancements were driven by a better mix of security products, as well as improved program performance and lower indirect expenses across the portfolio.

Defense

Defense revenues of $955 million were up 6% compared to the prior year quarter led by increased demand for several defense tech product lines. Defense operating income margin for the quarter was 8.8%, compared to 8.7% in the prior year quarter, and non-GAAP operating margin was 9.9%, compared to 10.0% in the prior year quarter.

LEIDOS HOLDINGS, INC.
UNAUDITED BACKLOG BY REPORTABLE SEGMENT

Backlog represents the revenues we expect to recognize under negotiated contracts and unissued task orders on sole source IDIQ contracts, to the extent we believe their execution and funding to be probable. Backlog does not include potential task orders expected to be awarded under multiple award IDIQ contracts.

Backlog value is based on management's estimates about volume of services, availability of customer funding and other factors, and excludes contracts that are under protest. Estimated backlog comprises both funded and negotiated unfunded backlog. Backlog estimates are subject to change and may be affected by several factors, including modifications of contracts, non-exercise of options and foreign currency movements.

Funded backlog for contracts with the U.S. government represents the value on contracts for which funding is appropriated less revenues previously recognized on these contracts. Funded backlog for contracts with non-U.S. government entities and commercial customers represents the estimated value on contracts, which may cover multiple future years, under which Leidos is obligated to perform, less revenue previously recognized on the contracts. Unfunded backlog represents all remaining value on task orders that is not funded, including options, that we expect to recognize as well as expected future task orders under sole source IDIQ contracts. 

The estimated value of backlog as of the dates presented was as follows:

LEIDOS HOLDINGS, INC.
UNAUDITED NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Leidos uses and refers to non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, non-GAAP diluted EPS, non-GAAP free cash flow and non-GAAP free cash flow conversion, which are not measures of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. and, accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the comparable GAAP measures and should be read in conjunction with Leidos's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Management believes that these non-GAAP measures provide another representation of the results of operations and financial condition, including its ability to comply with financial covenants. These non-GAAP measures are frequently used by financial analysts covering Leidos and its peers. The computation of non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, thus limiting their use for comparability.

Organic revenues capture the revenue that is inherent in the underlying business excluding the impact of acquisitions and divestitures made within the prior year; it is computed as current revenues excluding revenues from acquisitions within the last 12 months and divestitures within the current and year-ago periods.

Non-GAAP operating income is computed by excluding the following discrete items from operating income:

Acquisition, integration and restructuring costs – Represents acquisition, integration, lease termination, severance and retention costs and asset markdowns related to acquisitions and restructuring activities. Amortization of acquired intangible assets – Represents the amortization of the fair value of the acquired intangible assets. We do not exclude the revenue associated with these acquired intangible assets from non-GAAP operating income. Asset impairment charges – Represents impairments of long-lived intangible assets and other assets. Non-GAAP non operating income is computed by excluding the discrete items from operating income and the following discrete items from non operating income.

Settlement loss on pension plan buy-out – Represents the settlement loss in connection with the buy-out of our UK defined benefit pension plan. Acquisition related financing costs – Represents the cost associated with the termination of the bridge loan facility in connection with the acquisition of Entrust. Non-GAAP operating margin is computed by dividing non-GAAP operating income by revenues.

Adjusted EBITDA is computed by excluding the following items from income before income taxes: (i) discrete items as identified above; (ii) interest expense; (iii) interest income; (iv) depreciation expense; and (v) amortization of internally developed intangible assets.

Adjusted EBITDA margin is computed by dividing adjusted EBITDA by revenues.

Non-GAAP net income is computed by excluding the discrete items listed under non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP non operating income and their related tax impacts.

Non-GAAP diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income attributable to Leidos common stockholders, adjusted for the discrete items as identified above and the related tax impacts, by the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

Non-GAAP free cash flow is computed by deducting expenditures for property, equipment and software from net cash provided by (used in) operating activities.

Non-GAAP free cash flow conversion is computed by dividing non-GAAP free cash flow by non-GAAP net income attributable to Leidos common stockholders; operating cash flow conversion is computed by dividing net cash provided by operating activities by net income attributable to Leidos common stockholders.

Leidos dodá infračervené senzory pro 18 satelitů
LDOS Leidos Holdings
FMP Stock News 86
Original source text
, /PRNewswire/ -- Building on a track record of delivering advanced sensing technologies for the Space Development Agency's (SDA) proliferated low Earth orbit architecture, Leidos (NYSE: LDOS) was selected by Sierra Space to provide infrared sensing payloads, onboard signal-processing capabilities and mission support for the for the Accelerated Missile Defense Tranche 3 (AMDT3) Tracking Layer.

Sierra Space will integrate Leidos' infrared sensing payloads into 18 missile warning and tracking satellites that will provide persistent detection and tracking of hypersonic and other advanced missile threats from low Earth orbit. Together, Sierra Space and Leidos are combining proven satellite integration and flight-tested sensing technologies to field operational capability for one of the nation's highest priorities in missile defense.

"AMDT3 will build upon proven technologies to accelerate global missile defense capability," said Cindy Gruensfelder, president of Leidos Defense. "Leidos has already demonstrated these technologies on orbit, and with Sierra Space, we will rapidly transition that proven capability into an operational missile defense constellation that will help protect the nation against advanced missile threats."

Leidos' payloads combine infrared sensing with onboard digital signal processing that enables mission-relevant tracking data to be generated directly aboard the satellite, reducing latency and allowing actionable tracking information to be delivered faster to the warfighter. The company will also provide ground support equipment, mission expertise, operations support and sustainment throughout the program.

The AMDT3 award extends Leidos' contributions across SDA tranches 0, 1 and 2, reflecting the customer's continued confidence in the company's proven performance and rapid execution. Leidos' four Tranche 0 payloads have successfully operated on orbit since 2023, producing tracks of real-world events. Leidos is also delivering 14 missile warning and tracking sensors for Tranche 1 and 16 for Tranche 2, plus two dedicated missile defense sensors for Tranche 2.

As SDA expands the tracking layer to provide greater global coverage and enhanced missile defense capabilities, Leidos' flight-proven technologies will help deliver the resilient, proliferated sensing architecture needed to support homeland defense, theater operations and the broader objectives of Golden Dome for America.

The AMDT3 award advances Leidos' NorthStar 2030 strategy by expanding the company's position in space sensing, onboard digital processing and integrated national security technologies while continuing its evolution from technology demonstration to operational missile defense capability.

Key Takeaways Leidos expects Q2 revenues of $4.36 billion, up 2.6%, and earnings of $2.90 per share, down 9.7%.ENTRUST, recent contract awards and Kudu Dynamics may support Homeland and Intelligence & Digital growth.Defense demand, program wins and cost controls may aid results, while higher interest expenses weigh. Leidos Holdings, Inc. (LDOS - Free Report) is scheduled to release second-quarter 2026 results on Aug. 4, before market open. The company delivered an earnings surprise of 8.68% in the last reported quarter.

Let’s discuss the factors that are likely to be reflected in the upcoming quarterly results.

Factors Likely to Influence LDOS’ Q2 ResultsLeidos Holdings' Homeland segment is likely to have benefited from the $2.4 billion acquisition of ENTRUST. This strategic addition expanded the company's energy infrastructure capabilities, strengthened its presence in the utility engineering market and enhanced its service offerings, supporting the segment's top-line performance in the quarter to be reported.

Leidos Holdings' Intelligence & Digital segment is likely to have witnessed strength in the quarter to be reported, driven by recent contract awards, higher demand for Intelligence Community mission support and continued contributions from Kudu Dynamics.

Net write-ups on certain programs within the managed health services are likely to have supported the Health segment’s top-line performance.

Robust program wins and increased sales volumes, supported by growing geopolitical tensions globally and strong growth in integrated air defense systems, may have boosted the Defense segment’s top line.

Strong revenue growth, supported by disciplined program execution and cost-control initiatives, is likely to have favorably impacted the company's bottom-line performance. However, higher interest expenses are expected to have tempered some of the benefits in the quarter to be reported.

Q2 Expectations for LDOSThe Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pegged at $4.36 billion, indicating an increase of 2.6% from the year-ago level.

The consensus estimate for earnings is pegged at $2.90 per share, calling for a decline of 9.7% from the figure recorded a year ago.

What the Zacks Model Unveils for LDOSOur proven model predicts an earnings beat for LDOS this time. The combination of a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) increases the odds of an earnings beat, which is the case here, as you will see below.

CDW Corporation (CDW - Free Report) is scheduled to report its second-quarter 2026 results on Aug. 5, before market open. It has an Earnings ESP of +0.95% and a Zacks Rank of 3 at present.

FMP Stock News 72
Original source text
, /PRNewswire/ -- Government and commercial organizations could soon thwart potential cybersecurity threats by deploying Parcata™, a proprietary platform Leidos (NYSE: LDOS) has developed to autonomously find and fix software vulnerabilities.

This next-generation, model-agnostic tool harnesses a diverse set of large language models to accelerate vulnerability detection in first and third-party software and can patch zero-day vulnerabilities in real time.

"The use of AI by cyber adversaries has changed the game. We must detect and remediate before a breach," said Jason O'Connor, president of Leidos Intelligence. "Developed by our Kudu Dynamics team, with technology validated through DARPA's AI Cyber Challenge, Parcata will help organizations stay ahead of evolving threats. This tool will make sense out of the chaos and ensure the mission isn't dependent on any single frontier model."

The platform has demonstrated its capabilities through recent internal technical exercises and is being executed against Leidos code before it is deployed to mission environments.

This work aligns with Leidos' NorthStar 2030 strategy and its focus on AI-enabled capabilities and effects at operational scale across dynamic warfighting environments.

, /PRNewswire/ -- As global threats become more complex, contested and fast-moving, U.S. airmen need timely intelligence that is trusted and operationally relevant. Leidos (NYSE: LDOS) has been awarded a new task order by the U.S. Air Force's Air Combat Command (ACC) Acquisition Management and Integration Center (AMIC) to continue delivering intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) operations support for ACC.

The task order has a total potential value of approximately $717 million if all options are exercised. It includes a one-year base period with four one-year options. Work will be performed at more than 35 locations in the United States and overseas, positioning Leidos personnel alongside U.S. Air Force mission partners at the point of need and reinforcing the company's role as an embedded partner in day-to-day mission execution.

Leidos has supported this mission as the prime contractor since 2019. The new task order extends that partnership at a time when military leaders need accurate, timely information to assess threats and support operations across air, space, cyber and intelligence missions.

"Airmen operate in an environment where decisions often depend on the speed, quality and clarity of intelligence," said Jason McCarthy, Leidos senior vice president, Airborne & Mission Solutions. "Since 2019, our team has worked alongside Air Combat Command to provide mission-focused ISR support, training and analysis. This next phase of work builds on that foundation with the insight and operational expertise needed to help Airmen assess threats, prepare for missions and support operations around the world."

Under the task order, Leidos will provide subject matter expertise, intelligence analysis, threat mitigation, ISR operations support, training, and mission support services for ACC headquarters, subordinate Numbered Air Forces, centers, and wings. This work reflects Leidos' NorthStar 2030 commitment to helping Department of War customers maintain combat-ready forces and defeat evolving global threats.

Headquartered at Joint Base Langley-Eustis in Hampton, Virginia, ACC is one of the U.S. Air Force's major commands and serves as a primary provider of combat air, space, cyber and intelligence capabilities to America's warfighting commands. ACC AMIC provides acquisition services that support mission-focused capabilities across the command.

Market participants will be closely following the financial results of Leidos in its upcoming release. The company plans to announce its earnings on August 4, 2026. The company is expected to report EPS of $2.9, down 9.66% from the prior-year quarter. Meanwhile, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenue is projecting net sales of $4.36 billion, up 2.55% from the year-ago period.

Looking at the full year, the Zacks Consensus Estimates suggest analysts are expecting earnings of $12.3 per share and revenue of $18.12 billion. These totals would mark changes of +2.59% and +5.53%, respectively, from last year.

Any recent changes to analyst estimates for Leidos should also be noted by investors. These latest adjustments often mirror the shifting dynamics of short-term business patterns. Consequently, upward revisions in estimates express analysts' positivity towards the business operations and its ability to generate profits.

Leidos a Rune vyvíjejí technologie AI pro logistiku v Indo-Pacifiku
LDOS Leidos Holdings
FMP Stock News 78
Original source text
, /PRNewswire/ -- Leidos (NYSE: LDOS) and Rune Technologies Inc. are partnering to help military organizations anticipate logistics requirements, improve resource availability, and strengthen mission readiness through AI-enabled predictive sustainment capabilities designed for contested and distributed operational environments.

The partnership combines Rune's AI-enabled predictive logistics and sustainment mission command software with Leidos' AI-enabled decision advantage and course-of-action generation capabilities to provide commanders with greater sustainment insight and decision support across contested environments, including the unique distance, time, scale and maritime challenges of the Indo-Pacific region.

"Sustaining forces across the vast distances of the Indo-Pacific requires the ability to understand logistics demand before it affects mission execution," said Jason McCarthy, Leidos senior vice president, Airborne & Mission Solutions. "Together with Rune, we're giving commanders the insight and decision support they need to improve logistics visibility and increase readiness in complex and dispersed operating areas, today, not years from now."

The partnership brings together complementary capabilities designed to help military organizations sustain operations where speed, distance and uncertainty can challenge readiness.

"Technology alone doesn't solve logistics challenges in the Indo-Pacific," said David Tuttle, Co-Founder & CEO of Rune Technologies. "Winning in this environment requires using technology to connect data across planning, decision-making, and execution in complex operational environments to enable sustainment at speed. By combining Rune's AI-enabled predictive logistics capabilities with Leidos' enterprise data integration expertise, we're helping commanders do exactly that."

The Leidos and Rune partnership reflects Leidos' NorthStar 2030 strategy and its focus on AI-enabled decision advantage, mission software and operational readiness, helping commanders anticipate sustainment requirements before they become mission challenges.
