Description: KBR KBR November 05, 2025
KBR, Inc. (NYSE:KBR) delivers scientific, technology, and engineering services to government and commercial clients worldwide through two segments: Government Solutions and Sustainable Technology Solutions. Its portfolio spans R&D, advanced prototyping, cyber analytics, space-domain awareness, C4ISR, and a suite of proprietary process technologies for ammonia, syngas, clean refining, and circular-economy applications, all aimed at supporting defense, intelligence, aerospace, and energy-transition missions.
Recent financials show FY 2023 revenue of approximately $7.1 billion, an operating margin near 6 %, and a contracted backlog exceeding $10 billion-levels that reflect strong demand from U.S. defense spending and growing contracts in decarbonization projects. The company’s cash conversion cycle has tightened to roughly 45 days, indicating improving working-capital efficiency.
Key macro drivers include: (1) the U.S. defense budget, which the Congressional Budget Office projects to rise ~2 % annually through 2028, bolstering KBR’s government-contract pipeline; (2) global energy-transition spending, with the International Energy Agency estimating $1.5 trillion of cumulative investment by 2030, creating tailwinds for KBR’s sustainable-technology services; and (3) heightened demand for cyber-resilience and space-domain capabilities as geopolitical tensions drive higher allocation to C4ISR programs.
