Description: KBR KBR January 08, 2026

KBR Inc. (NYSE:KBR) delivers scientific, technology and engineering services to government and commercial clients worldwide through two operating segments: Government Solutions and Sustainable Technology Solutions.

Its Government Solutions portfolio includes R&D, advanced prototyping, acquisition support, systems engineering, cyber-analytics, space-domain awareness, test & evaluation, data integration, program management, global supply-chain logistics, and C4ISR services for defense, intelligence, space, aviation and related missions.

The Sustainable Technology Solutions segment leverages proprietary process technologies for ammonia/syngas production, petrochemical processing, clean-refining and circular-economy applications, while also offering energy-security, net-zero decarbonization, energy-efficiency, and digitally-enabled asset-optimization services.

Key financial highlights (FY 2023) include $7.5 billion of revenue, a backlog of roughly $5 billion, and an operating margin of 5.8%, reflecting the firm’s reliance on long-term government contracts and growing demand for low-carbon industrial solutions.

Sector drivers that materially affect KBR’s outlook are (1) sustained U.S. defense spending growth-projected to rise ~3 % annually through 2027, (2) accelerating global energy transition policies that boost demand for ammonia-based fuels and circular-economy processes, and (3) increasing cyber-threat intensity, which expands the market for C4ISR and cyber-analytics services.

For a deeper, data-driven assessment of KBR’s valuation and risk profile, consider exploring the analytics platform ValueRay for a transparent, model-backed view of the company’s upside potential.
