HOUSTON, Oct. 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- KBR, Inc. (NYSE: KBR) today announced its third quarter fiscal 2025 results.

“Despite revenue headwinds, KBR achieved year on year double digit Adjusted EBITDA growth, strong cash conversion and maintained operational momentum with a strong book to bill. Our diverse portfolio, prudent cost management and focus on value-add for our customers delivered enhanced margins in line with our strategy,” said Stuart Bradie, Chairman, President & CEO.

Mr. Bradie added, “Our focus on operational, mission-critical priorities, combined with 60% of Adjusted EBITDA coming from non-U.S. government customers, positions us to maintain stability during a temporary government shutdown.”

 

1 As used throughout this release, book-to-bill and bookings and options exclude long-term UK PFIs and the Plaquemines LNG project.

Third Quarter Fiscal 2025 Consolidated Results Review
(All comparisons against the third quarter fiscal 2024 unless noted.)

Revenues were $1.9 billion, down 0% or $6 million, due to the slower pace of awards in the first half of the year across both segments and EUCOM reductions in Readiness & Sustainment, partially offset by growth in Defense & Intel both in the U.S. and internationally.

Operating income was $191 million, up 10% or $18 million, primarily due to increases in Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates due to strong project execution on an LNG project, partially offset by decreases in gross profit and increases in Selling, general and administrative expenses.

Net income attributable to KBR (including loss from discontinued operations) was $115 million, up 15% or $15 million, primarily due to increases in Operating income noted above.

Net income attributable to KBR from continuing operations was $116 million, up 16% or 16 million, in line with Net income attributable to KBR (including loss from discontinued operations) noted above.

Diluted earnings per share attributable to KBR (including loss from discontinued operations) were $0.90, up 20% or $0.15, in line with increased Net income attributable to KBR (including loss from discontinued operations) noted above and lower diluted weighted average common shares outstanding due to open market share repurchases.

Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations were $0.91, up 21% or $0.16, in line with Diluted earnings per share attributable to KBR (including loss from discontinued operations) noted above.

Adjusted EBITDA2 was $240 million, up 10% or $21 million, primarily due to the increase in Operating income noted above. Adjusted EBITDA2 margin was 12.4%, up from the prior year due to strong operating performance in the current year period.

Adjusted earnings per share2 were $1.02, up 21% or $0.18, due to the increase in Adjusted EBITDA2 noted above and lower adjusted weighted average common shares outstanding due to open market share repurchases.

Backlog and options as of the quarter end totaled $23.4 billion. Book-to-bill1 was 1.4x for the quarter.

Third Quarter Fiscal 2025 Segment Results Review
(All comparisons against the third quarter fiscal 2024 unless noted.)

Mission Technology Solutions (MTS)
Revenues were $1,406 million, flat to the prior year, due to growth in Defense & Intel, offset by EUCOM reductions in Readiness & Sustainment and NASA funding restrictions in Science & Space.

Operating income was $114 million, flat to the prior year, in line with Revenues noted above. Operating income margin was 8.1%.

Adjusted EBITDA2 was $143 million, up 1% or $2 million, in line with Operating income noted above. Adjusted EBITDA2 margin was 10.2%, in line with the prior year period.

  • Awarded three cost-plus-fixed-fee task order contracts by the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) under the Innovative Cyber/Infrastructure Threat Assessment Environment (INCITE) Common Operating Picture for Event Response Situation Awareness (COPERS) contract
  • Secured a $99 million contract to advance the U.S. Space Force Design Implementation for Collaborative Environment (DICE)
     

Sustainable Technology Solutions (STS)
Revenues were $525 million, down 1% or $6 million, driven by delays in new awards.

Operating income was $118 million, up 13% or $14 million, primarily due to increases in Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates due to strong project execution on an LNG project, partially offset by increases in Selling, general and administrative expenses. Operating income margin was 22.5%.

Adjusted EBITDA2 was $123 million, up 13% or $14 million, primarily due to higher Operating income noted above. Adjusted EBITDA2 margin was 23.4%, up from the prior year due to strong operating performance in the current year period.

Backlog as of the quarter end totaled $3.7 billion. Book-to-bill1 was 1.2x for the quarter.

The following new business awards were announced:

  • Secured a two-year renewal of EPCM contract with Basra Oil Company for the Majnoon oil field in Iraq
  • Awarded a program management consultancy contract by TAQA Transmission
  • Awarded a FEED contract for Heavy Oil Program by Kuwait Oil Company
  • Awarded a FEED contract for Abadi Onshore LNG project in Indonesia

Balance Sheet, Cash Flow, and Capital Deployment

Liquidity as of October 3, 2025, totaled approximately $1.1 billion, comprising $605 million in borrowing capacity under the revolving credit facility and $539 million cash and cash equivalents. Net leverage ratio as of October 3, 2025, was 2.2x.

Operating cash flows from continuing operations for the quarter were $198 million, up 29% or $45 million, with Operating cash conversion2 of 152% due to DSO reductions in both segments.

During the third quarter, KBR returned $122 million in capital to shareholders, consisting of $100 million in share repurchases (including withhold to cover shares) and $22 million in regular dividends.

Revising Fiscal Year 2025 Guidance
KBR is revising the previously provided outlook for the pace of awards across both segments and the resolution of bids won under protest, which will not be resolved during the U.S. Government shutdown.

 Updated Fiscal Year
2025 Guidance
Prior Fiscal Year
2025 Guidance
Revenues$7.75B - $7.85B$7.9B - $8.1B
Adjusted EBITDA$960M - $980M$960M - $980M
Adjusted EPS$3.78 - $3.88$3.78 - $3.88
Operating cash flows$500M - $550M$500M - $550M
   

The company does not provide reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS to the most comparable GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis because the company is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of legal proceedings, unusual gains and losses, and acquisition-related expenses without unreasonable effort, which could be material to the company’s results computed in accordance with GAAP.

Strategic Intent to Spin Off Mission Technology Solutions
On September 24, 2025, the company announced its intention to spin off its Mission Technology Solutions segment into a separate, U.S. publicly-traded company. Upon completion, KBR and its shareholders will benefit from ownership in two pure-play public companies with enhanced strategic focus, operational independence, and financial flexibility. The planned spin-off is intended to be tax-free to KBR and its shareholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes and targeting completion by mid-to-late 2026. The spin-off will be subject to final approval by KBR's Board of Directors and other customary conditions. Additional details regarding the spin off transaction are available on the Investor Relations section of KBR's website at investors.kbr.com/news-and-events/spin-off-information.

Conference Call Details
The company will host a conference call to discuss its third quarter fiscal year 2025 results on Thursday, October 30, 2025, at 7:00 a.m. Central Time. The conference call will be webcast simultaneously through the Investor Relations section of KBR’s website at investors.kbr.com. A replay of the webcast will be available shortly after the call on KBR’s website or by telephone at +1.866.813.9403, passcode: 981242.

Unaudited Non-GAAP Financial Information
The following information provides reconciliations of certain non-GAAP financial measures presented in the press release to which this reconciliation is attached to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The company has provided the non-GAAP financial information presented in the press release as information supplemental and in addition to the financial measures presented in the press release that are calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Such non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered superior to, as a substitute for or alternative to, and should be considered in conjunction with, the GAAP financial measures presented in the press release. The non-GAAP financial measures in the press release may differ from similar measures used by other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA
We evaluate performance based on Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as Net income (loss) attributable to KBR, plus Net (income) loss from discontinued operations, net of tax; less Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest included in discontinued operations; less Interest expense; Other non-operating expense (income); Provision for income taxes; Depreciation and amortization; and certain discrete items as identified by Management to be non-recurring in nature as set forth below. Adjusted EBITDA can also be defined as Operating income less Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests from continuing operations; plus Depreciation and amortization; and certain discrete items as identified by Management to be non-recurring in nature as set forth below. Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Revenues. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin for each of the three- and nine-month periods ended October 3, 2025 and September 27, 2024 are considered non-GAAP financial measures under SEC rules because Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain amounts included in the calculation of Net income (loss) attributable to KBR in accordance with GAAP for such periods. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin afford investors a view of what management considers KBR's core performance for each of the three- and nine-month periods ended October 3, 2025 and September 27, 2024 and also affords investors the ability to make a more informed assessment of such core performance for the comparable periods.

Adjusted EPS
Adjusted earnings per share (Adjusted EPS) for each of the three- and nine-month periods ended October 3, 2025 and September 27, 2024 is considered a non-GAAP financial measure under SEC rules because Adjusted EPS excludes certain amounts included in the Diluted EPS calculated in accordance with GAAP for such periods. The most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP is Diluted EPS for the same periods. Management believes that Adjusted EPS affords investors a view of what management considers KBR's core earnings performance for each of the three- and nine-month periods ended October 3, 2025 and September 27, 2024 and also affords investors the ability to make a more informed assessment of such core earnings performance for the comparable periods.

Operating Cash Conversion

Operating cash conversion is considered a non-GAAP financial measure under SEC rules. Operating cash conversion is calculated as Operating cash flows from continuing operations divided by Adjusted weighted average common shares outstanding, which is then divided by Adjusted earnings per share. Management believes that Operating cash conversion affords investors a view of what management considers KBR's core operating cash flow performance for each of the three- and nine-month periods ended October 3, 2025 and September 27, 2024 and also afford investors the ability to make a more informed assessment of such core operating cash generation performance.
