Booz Allen Q2 FY27: National Security Funded Backlog Up 10%, Civil Decline Moderating as Outcome-Based Mix Expands

Booz Allen delivered Q2 FY27 revenue of $2.8 billion, down 3.9% year over year, driven almost entirely by a 10.6% decline in billable expenses; revenue excluding billable expenses fell less than 1%, and national security revenue ex-billables grew 6%. Profitability outperformed expectations with adjusted EBITDA margin of 11.3% and adjusted diluted EPS up 18% year over year to $1.76, supported by the DARPA divestiture earnout and a lower tax rate. The strategic signal is the acceleration of outcome-based and firm-fixed-price contracting — up 3 percentage points year to date in national security — combined with the $729 million Ultra I&C Mission Solutions acquisition, which management positions as the core of a double-digit-growth defense tech vector.

The Company rebuilt its workforce with technologists that bring deep mission expertise in national security and other core government missions. These investments propelled Booz Allen as a leader in artificial intelligence, cyber, quantum, and other advanced technologies. Today, Booz Allen is a leader at the forefront of the nation's technology ecosystem.
