Recent News
July–September 2026: SAIC won multiple federal task orders and delivery orders across defense and civilian agencies, including a NASA SEWP task order awarded in early August and several FPDS-listed awards reported in July and late August that range from low‑single‑million to mid‑hundred‑million dollars; these wins add funded backlog and near-term funded work.
Technical Analysis
ADX and Directional Indicators: ADX at 32.22 signals a strong trend environment. DI+ shows a peak-and-reverse, which reads as bearish pressure; DI- also shows a peak-and-reverse, which reads as bullish pressure. That juxtaposition indicates a contested directional environment where trend strength exists but directional conviction faces opposing forces, increasing the likelihood of short-term range compression around current levels.
MACD: MACD at 1.90 sits below the signal line at 2.45 and the MACD trend shows a peak-and-reversal, which indicates bearish momentum. That bearish momentum raises the probability of short-term downside pressure despite the broader trend strength signaled by ADX.
MRO (Momentum/Regression Oscillator): MRO at 28.89 registers positive, which indicates the current price sits above the model target and therefore carries a bias toward decreasing pressure. The magnitude suggests a material, not minimal, potential for mean reversion toward modeled value.
RSI and Price Structure: RSI at 59.33 with a peak-and-reversal denotes recent loss of upward momentum while remaining below overbought extremes. Price closed at $126.20, slightly below the 20‑day average ($127.15) but above the 50‑day ($120.65) and 200‑day ($103.88) averages, indicating short-term weakness against intact medium‑to‑longer term support. Bollinger band widths remain narrow (20‑day stdev $0.95), consistent with lower realized volatility and a higher chance of rangebound action until a decisive momentum shift occurs.
Fundamental Analysis
Top‑line and earnings: Total revenue stands at $1.88B and net income at $102M for the period ending 2026‑07‑31. Reported EPS actual of $3.01 exceeded the estimate of $2.31, producing an EPS surprise of +30.30%, which supports near-term sentiment and the company’s ability to convert contracts into above‑expected earnings.
Profitability and margins: Operating (EBIT) margin equals 8.09%; that margin declined QoQ by -13.43% but improved YoY by +2.89%, indicating quarter-to-quarter compression with a small year-over-year uplift. Gross margin sits at 12.71% and operating leverage measures suggest sensitivity of operating income to revenue changes.
Cash flow and liquidity: Operating cash flow reached $146M and free cash flow $131M; free cash flow yield equals 2.65%. Cash and short‑term investments total $126M while the cash conversion cycle of 13.62 days reflects efficient working capital turnover. The company generated positive cashflow but maintains modest cash relative to total debt.
Leverage and coverage: Total debt totals $2.705B with net debt $2.359B. Debt‑to‑EBITDA registers approximately 14.16x and debt‑to‑equity about 188.37%, while interest coverage approximates 4.61x. High leverage metrics raise sensitivity to margin swings and place incremental value on cash generation stability when assessing valuation risk.
Valuation context: Price/earnings stands near 38.85x with forward PE ~37.86x and price/ book ~3.44x. WMDST values the stock relative to the current mean price target of $141.50; that mean sits above the $126.20 close, implying potential valuation upside contingent on sustained margin recovery and deleveraging through cash generation.
