During the same quarter last year, the company posted $1.33 earnings per share. The company’s quarterly revenue was up 16.5% compared to the same quarter last year. V2X updated its FY 2026 guidance to 5.900-6.300 EPS.
Here are the key takeaways from V2X’s conference call:
- Guidance was raised after a strong quarter: 2026 revenue is now expected at $4.875–$5.025 billion, adjusted EBITDA at $347.5–$362.5 million, and adjusted diluted EPS at $5.90–$6.30.
- Second-quarter revenue increased 17% to $1.26 billion, while adjusted EBITDA rose 9% to $89.8 million and adjusted diluted EPS climbed 23% to $1.64. Adjusted operating cash flow improved 23% year over year to $71.8 million.
- V2X reported approximately $1 billion in recent awards spanning modernization, training, aerospace, and mission readiness, with management saying the awards should improve the margin profile of its backlog. The awards were received after quarter-end and therefore were not included in second-quarter bookings.
- Funded backlog increased 10% sequentially to $2.5 billion, and management expects adjusted operating cash flow of $160–$180 million for 2026, driving net leverage to approximately 2 times or below by year-end. The company also reduced borrowing costs through a term-loan repricing.
- The Kuwait logistics activity is expected to fall sharply in the second half, from approximately $180 million of first-half revenue to $20–$30 million, creating an estimated $150 million sequential headwind. Middle East revenue is consequently expected to be flat to down for the full year, although other programs and national-security activity are expected to offset much of the decline.
