Let’s see how things are shaping up for the upcoming announcement.
Factors at Play
ManTech’s third-quarter results are likely to benefit from solid organic growth. Growing contract wins from the U.S. government in the areas of defense, intelligence, homeland security and other federal civilian agencies are likely to have been constant tailwinds.
It is important to note that in the quarter to be reported, the company won a $950-million worth contract from U.S. Air Force for analytical and technical services. The company was also awarded a five-year $322-million task order to support the U.S. Marine Corps Intelligence Activity. A five-year $325-million contract from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Office of Procurement Operations (OPO) was also conferred on the company.
Moreover, the company’s acquisition of Kforce Government Solutions (KGS), which was completed in April, is likely to boost results in the soon-to-reported quarter.
