CACI International Boosts C4I Footing With New Task Order
Read MoreHide Full Article
CACI International (CACI - Free Report) recently secured a five-year task order to provide scientific, systems, and software engineering and technical services to the U.S. Army Reprogramming Analysis Team Program Office. The task was awarded under the SSES NexGen contract vehicle.
The contract value is capped at $88 million, and requires the company to continue providing the U.S. Army Communications-Electronics Command Software Engineering Center with reprogramming infrastructure that develops software for electronic warfare (EW) systems. Moreover, the company will also continue to deliver other electromagnetic spectrum capabilities.
CACI International’s expertise in EW reprogramming capabilities is expected to support Army commanders on various military operations.
A leader in IT outsourcing for the U.S. federal government, CACI has ample exposure to the rapidly growing DoD and Department of Homeland Security budgets. A strong defence procurement environment is a tailwind for the company.
In terms of customer mix, during the last reported quarter, the DoD accounted for about 69.1% of total revenues.
Competition Strong
Despite the favorable relationship with the DoD, bright prospects of the C4ISR (Communication, Command & Control, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance & Reconnaissance) market is keeping competition steady.
CACI’s management noted that the market is becoming more complex and dynamic than before. Per Zion Market Research, the C4ISR market and EW is expected to witness a CAGR of 3.6% between 2018 and 2024 to hit $127.2 billion globally.
Recently, Mercury Systems (MRCY - Free Report) won the Best Performance award in Equipment & Systems for delivering solutions for Airbus’ new generation tactical airlifter, improving the company’s visibility as a preferred defense systems and equipment supplier among companies operating in the C4ISR market.
Moreover, last year, Science Applications (SAIC - Free Report) signed a potential seven-year, $861.1 million contract with the U.S. Navy, per which, it supports the latter’s C4ISR environment.
Bottom Line
Although competition is a growing concern, we note that CACI has a strong foothold in the C4ISR market. Moreover, it is constantly taking steps to boost its capabilities in this space.
Further, the recent buyouts of LGS and Mastodon, when integrated with CACI’s capabilities, are expected to enable the company to provide products and solutions that address robust requirements in the areas of signals intelligence and spectrum management, EW, communications, C4ISR and cyber defense.
Long-term earnings growth rate for Alteryx is 17.62%.
Biggest Tech Breakthrough in a Generation
Be among the early investors in the new type of device that experts say could impact society as much as the discovery of electricity. Current technology will soon be outdated and replaced by these new devices. In the process, it’s expected to create 22 million jobs and generate $12.3 trillion in activity.
A select few stocks could skyrocket the most as rollout accelerates for this new tech. Early investors could see gains similar to buying Microsoft in the 1990s. Zacks’ just-released special report reveals 7 stocks to watch. The report is only available for a limited time.
