- Leidos won a three-year, $127 million contract to continue administering Hawaiʻi’s Energy program and Electric Vehicle Charging Station Rebate program for the Public Utilities Commission, extending work it has performed since 2009.
- The scope includes managing market solutions, educational initiatives, and training to lower energy costs, cut carbon emissions, and enhance the state’s energy resiliency.
- Since its inception, Hawaiʻi Energy has delivered over $7 billion in statewide savings; in the most recent program year, it issued more than 18,000 rebates totaling $20 million.
- The award aligns with Leidos’ NorthStar 2030 strategic focus on energy infrastructure; the company reported $16.7 billion in revenue for FY 2025 and has 47,000 employees worldwide.
- Leidos navigated the longest U.S. government shutdown and DOGE-related delays, raised its 2025 guidance twice with strong Q3 organic revenue growth and book-to-bill, and expects momentum to accelerate into late 2026 and beyond.
- Management identified multi-billion-dollar growth pillars: defense systems (~15% of revenue), cyber within its Digimod segment, and a fast-growing energy infrastructure engineering business.
- The health segment, Leidos’s leading grower and margin performer, will consolidate recent gains with key VA disability exam contracts up for recompete in late 2026.
- Leidos is bidding on major Golden Dome counter-UAS/missile defense IDIQs and plans to compete for FAA’s Common Automation Platform as a subcontractor, leveraging existing hardware/software offerings.
- The company targets 13%+ adjusted operating margins sustainably, driven by scale in defense systems, higher-margin commercial energy projects, and internal AI-enabled efficiency programs through 2026–28.
- Leidos demonstrated resilience post-government shutdown with accelerated Q3 organic revenue growth and strong book-to-bill; expects momentum to build in the back half of 2026 and into 2027–28.

- Health remains the company’s leading margin and revenue performer; near-term growth will focus on consolidation, with major recompetes for the Dim Sum program and VA disability qualification contracts slated for mid-to-late 2026.
- Targets sustaining 13%+ operating margins in FY 2025, sees multi-year margin upside in defense systems and commercial international, and will launch an AI-enabled internal efficiency transformation in 2026.
- Leidos navigated a choppy U.S. government funding environment—including the longest shutdown in history—and still delivered accelerating Q3 organic revenue growth and a strong book-to-bill, prompting management to raise guidance multiple times in 2025.
- The company’s growth pillars include a multi-billion-dollar defense systems business (≈15% of portfolio) with offerings from detection to maritime autonomy, a high-growth Digimod & cyber segment, and a double-digit-growing energy infrastructure engineering services business with margins above corporate average.
- The health segment remains Leidos’ fastest-growing and highest-margin business, with expansion into rural and behavioral health; key recompetes—for both the VBA disability exams and the Dim Sum program—are expected in Q3/Q4 2026.
- Management is targeting sustained 13%+ EBITDA margins, driven by margin expansion in defense systems and commercial international, strategic AI-enabled internal transformation starting 2026, and pursuing major programs including the $150 billion Golden Dome IDIQ and the FAA Common Automation Platform.
