▲(5.71% Upside)
Action:ReiteratedDate:02/24/26
The score is driven mainly by improved fundamentals (return to profitability, reduced leverage, positive but uneven cash generation) and constructive 2026 guidance with strong contract momentum. This is tempered by thin margins/cash conversion volatility and a relatively high P/E, while technicals are supportive with the stock trading above key moving averages.
Positive Factors
Contract wins, backlog and large pipeline
Material multi‑year awards (T‑6) plus an $11.1B backlog and a >$60B qualified pipeline provide durable revenue opportunity and bidding optionality. Large program wins reduce reliance on spot work and create long‑cycle revenue visibility that supports multi‑period planning and capacity investment.
Balance sheet de‑risking and lower leverage
A materially improved leverage profile and lower cash interest reduce financial fragility and increase strategic flexibility. Lower net debt and falling interest costs free capacity for selective bidding, working capital and tech investments, reducing refinance and covenant risks over the medium term.
Scaled revenue and return to profitability with constructive guidance
The company has scaled top line and moved from prior losses to positive adjusted EBITDA and net income. Management’s 2026 guide for continued revenue and EPS expansion suggests structural operational improvement and supports sustainable earnings capacity if execution and award timing hold.
Negative Factors
Thin margins and volatile cash conversion
Narrow operating margins and swings in free cash flow make earnings and reinvestment capacity sensitive to cost overruns, ramp inefficiencies and timing quirks. Persistently thin margins compress buffers against contract execution risk and limit durable free‑cash‑flow growth absent structural margin expansion.
Funded backlog concentration and timing risk
A large portion of backlog is unfunded or timing‑sensitive, leaving near‑term revenue visibility exposed to customer funding, option exercises and award booking. Dependence on a few large programs concentrates execution and cash flow risk, raising sensitivity to contract timing and procurement cadence.
Trailing book‑to‑bill below 1 and award timing uncertainty
A book‑to‑bill under 1 indicates backlog additions lag revenue, so growth depends on timely booking of large awards. Persistent sub‑1 intake or award delays increase the risk of revenue volatility and could strain utilization and margin assumptions if bid success or timing weakens.

V2X Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

Any
Any
Remaining Performance Obligations
Remaining Performance Obligations
Value of contracted customer work the company has committed to deliver but has not yet recognized as revenue. A larger RPO provides visibility into future top-line growth and suggests stronger demand, while declines, high cancellation exposure, or a large portion subject to change indicate revenue at risk. Comparing RPO to current revenue and cash flow helps judge how much growth is already locked in versus dependent on future execution or contract renewals.
Chart InsightsA pronounced step-up in RPO beginning in late 2022 lifted V2X’s backlog to a materially higher baseline, signaling large multi‑period contract wins or structural change (e.g., deals/M&A) that improved revenue visibility. Since then the backlog oscillates quarter‑to‑quarter, which implies growth comes from lumpy, timing‑sensitive awards and renewals rather than steady organic expansion. For investors, the higher RPO is a positive lead indicator if conversion rates hold, but near‑term upside depends on execution and concentration/seasonality risks—monitor conversion metrics and large customer exposure closely.

V2X Earnings Call Summary

Earnings Call Date:Feb 23, 2026
(Q4-2025)
|
% Change Since: |
Next Earnings Date:May 12, 2026
Earnings Call Sentiment Positive
The call presents a broadly positive picture: record quarterly and full-year financials, double-digit adjusted EPS and adjusted net income growth, significant contract wins (including two >$1B and a secured T-6 award), improved leverage and strong pipeline and partnerships centered on AI and technology. Headwinds include a sub-1 book-to-bill trailing rate (reliant on large award timing), funded backlog concentration, early-phase margin pressure on new ramps, regional operational fluidity, and timing/protest risk around awards. Management issued a constructive 2026 guide (midpoint ~6% revenue growth, EBITDA and EPS expansion) while acknowledging timing and execution-related uncertainties.
Q4-2025 Updates
Positive Updates
Record Quarterly Revenue and EBITDA
Q4 revenue reached a record $1.219 billion, up 5% year-over-year; Q4 adjusted EBITDA was a record $88.7 million with an adjusted EBITDA margin of 7.3%.
Full Year Top-Line and Profitability Growth
Full-year 2025 revenue grew 4% to $4.48 billion. Full-year adjusted EBITDA was $323.3 million (7.2% margin). Adjusted net income rose 20% to $166.8 million and adjusted diluted EPS increased 21% to $5.24.
Strong Quarterly Operating Cash Flow and Cash Generation
Adjusted operating cash flow in Q4 was $172.4 million; year-to-date net cash provided by operating activities was $182 million and adjusted net cash provided by operating activities was $148.3 million, demonstrating robust cash generation.
Balance Sheet Improvement and Lower Interest Costs
Net debt improved by $116 million year-over-year to $758 million, yielding a net leverage ratio of 2.2x (over 1 full turn improvement in 24 months). Cash interest expense fell ~ $27 million year-over-year to $73.7 million for the year; Q4 cash interest was $18.0 million (improved $4.7 million YoY).
Major Contract Wins and Backlog
Delivered 2 contract wins > $1 billion each and 10 awards > $100 million in 2025. Backlog at year-end was $11.1 billion (funded backlog $2.3 billion). The T-6 award (~$4.3 billion) was upheld post-quarter and is expected to be booked in Q1, adding material revenue visibility.
Large Qualified Pipeline and Increased Bid Activity
Qualified pipeline stands at more than $60 billion. Bid velocity increased ~50% in 2025 and company targets an additional ~30% increase in 2026, supporting future revenue opportunities.
2026 Financial Guidance Reflects Continued Growth
2026 guidance: revenue $4.675–$4.825 billion (midpoint $4.75B, ~6% growth year-over-year), adjusted EBITDA $335–$350 million, adjusted diluted EPS $5.50–$5.90 (midpoint ~9% growth), and adjusted operating cash flow $150–$170 million.
Strategic Partnerships and Technology Investments
Announced partnerships with AWS and Google Public Sector (and collaboration with IBM) to apply AI, data automation and smart warehousing to mission solutions; MDA Shield IDIQ and Advanced Technology Support Program IDIQ awards position the company in space/missile defense and rapid tech fielding.
Execution in Mission-Critical Areas
Strong wins and execution in training, foreign military sales, rapid prototyping, F-16 modernization and classified cyber programs demonstrate alignment with national security priorities and customer confidence (T-6 cited as a ~$4.3B milestone program).
Negative Updates
Book-to-Bill Below 1 Trailing Twelve Months
Trailing 12-month book-to-bill was 0.9 (below 1.0). Management expects book-to-bill to be above 1 in 2026, but achieving that is dependent in part on timing and booking of large awards such as T-6.
Funded Backlog Concentration and Timing Risk
Total backlog was $11.1 billion but funded backlog was only $2.3 billion at year-end; the T-6 award (~$4.3B) was not included in year-end backlog and booking/timing and option exercise decisions could affect near-term revenue visibility.
Early-Phase Margin Pressure on New Programs
Several programs (including T-6) are expected to be margin-dilutive in early phases as they ramp and reengineer operations; management does not expect material margin improvement from these ramps in 2026 and notes some new programs start below company composite margins.
Regional & Operational Uncertainty in Middle East
Activity in the Middle East is described as 'fluid' with employee safety and operational continuity the immediate priority; potential opportunities or disruptions in the region were not assumed in the 2026 guidance and could present variability.
Recompete Risk and Award Timing Uncertainty
Recompetes represent roughly 3% of 2026 revenue at the midpoint; timing of awards, protest risk and cadence of government procurement could affect execution against guidance.
Cash Conversion Nuance
Adjusted operating cash flow-to-EBITDA conversion declined vs 2024 (midpoint guidance implies ~47% conversion of adjusted EBITDA), partly due to an extra payroll in 2025 (~$50 million impact). This tempers near-term free-cash-flow comparisons despite strong underlying cash generation.
Indo-Pacific/Training Demand Below Historical Levels
Management noted training activity in the Indo-Pacific was flat to slightly down and did not materialize to historical levels in 2025, which could limit upside in that region in the near term.
Company Guidance
V2X's 2026 guidance calls for revenue of $4.675–4.825 billion (midpoint $4.75B, ~6% growth), adjusted EBITDA of $335–350M, adjusted diluted EPS of $5.50–5.90 (midpoint ≈+9%), and adjusted net cash provided by operating activities of $150–170M (guide assumes an extra payroll period worth ~ $50M impacting cash flow). The company expects cash interest of ≈$69M, other expenses of ~$15M, capex of ~$25M, and ~3% of revenue at the midpoint from recompetes; backlog stood at $11.1B (funded backlog $2.3B) excluding the ~$4.3B T‑6 award to be booked in Q1, trailing 12‑month book‑to‑bill was 0.9 with book‑to‑bill expected >1 in 2026. For context, 2025 results included revenue $4.48B, adjusted EBITDA $323.3M (7.2% margin), adjusted net income $166.8M, adjusted diluted EPS $5.24, net debt improvement of $116M to $758M, and net leverage of 2.2x.

V2X Financial Statement Overview

Summary
Revenue has grown materially and profitability improved versus prior losses, but margins remain thin and gross margin has drifted lower. The balance sheet looks de-risked with much lower leverage, while cash flow is positive but volatile with modest cash conversion.
Income Statement
64
Positive
Revenue has scaled materially over the last several years and continued to grow in 2024–2025, supporting a positive top-line trajectory. Profitability has improved from losses in 2022–2023 to positive net income in 2024–2025, but margins remain thin (low single-digit EBITDA margin and ~1–2% net margin in 2025), leaving results sensitive to execution and cost pressure. Gross margin has also drifted lower versus 2022, which limits operating leverage despite higher sales.
Balance Sheet
70
Positive
Leverage improved significantly by 2025, with very low debt relative to equity, which materially reduces financial risk versus 2022–2024 when debt levels were high. Equity has grown over time, supporting balance-sheet resilience. The key watch-out is the sharp shift in debt profile year-to-year (high leverage historically, then very low in 2025), which may reflect a major capital structure change that investors would want to validate for sustainability.
Cash Flow
58
Neutral
The business is generating positive operating cash flow and free cash flow across the period shown, and free cash flow has generally tracked earnings well (free cash flow to net income near 1.0 in 2024–2025). However, cash generation is volatile: free cash flow growth swung from strong gains in 2023–2024 to a steep decline in 2025. Operating cash flow relative to revenue remains modest, implying limited cash conversion and less cushion if profitability softens.
