AI verdict & sentimentAI analysisGenerated by AI from underlying data

Today's AI verdict on what's driving $CACI, plus how loud the X conversation is and which way it's leaning.

AI analysis

TickerTalks’ read on the fundamentals and what’s driving the move.

Proven numbersAcceleratingAI verdict · as of 2026-07-16

The move is getting stronger, with heavier trading behind it.

CACI International is a defense-IT compounder posting four straight EPS beats with a new COO and Southern Border drone-defense wins.

CACI International provides information technology, engineering, and mission-critical services to U.S. defense and intelligence customers, $10.7B market cap, with Q4 fiscal 2026 earnings due 2026-08-05.

  • Q3 fiscal 2026 revenue was $2.35B, up 8.5% year-over-year with sequential growth of 5.9% — the fourth consecutive quarter of mid-single-digit-or-better growth, and EPS $7.27 topped $6.90 consensus by 5.4%.
  • Prior quarterly surprises: Q3 5.4%, Q2 6.2%, Q1 11.4%, Q4 fiscal 2025 28.2% — a durable pattern of positive execution against consensus.
  • Gross margin 31.4% (defense-IT services), operating margin 9.7%, trailing ROIC 6.6% pairs with ROE 13.1%.
  • Consensus models fiscal 2026 EPS $28.21 rising to $31.23 in fiscal 2027 and $35.76 in fiscal 2028 — mid-teens compounding, the 21.8x multiple discounts it.
  • On June 22, CACI appointed Dr. David Young as COO effective same day, reporting to the CEO with 25 years of defense experience.
  • On July 13, CACI's SkyValor solution was selected for Southern Border drone defense — a real contract win in the counter-drone growth vector.
  • On July 9, CACI scheduled the Q4 fiscal 2026 call to also provide fiscal 2027 guidance — the model-anchoring event.
  • Position in 52-week range only 15%, shares 5% below the 50-day and 15% below the 200-day — the tape compressed against fundamentals.

The setup is a defense-IT compounder with visible contract wins and a fiscal 2027 guide landing on the call — the multiple has room if the guide holds.

What to watch: August 5 Q4 fiscal 2026 earnings — revenue growth versus the +8.5% pace, fiscal 2027 revenue guidance versus the $10.67B consensus and EPS guidance versus the $31.23 consensus, book-to-bill trajectory, and any commentary on SkyValor counter-drone contract flow. New COO Young's first strategic commentary is a durable qualitative signal.

On the calendar: 2026-08-05 Q4 fiscal 2026 earnings; fiscal 2027 guide is the model-anchoring event.

Fundamentals & catalyst

Profitability, valuation, and the next earnings event — at a glance, with rule-of-thumb signals.

Key ratios

P/E
21.8How much investors are paying per dollar of profit the company actually earned in the last 12 months. Lower means the stock looks cheaper relative to earnings.~15–25 is typical for the S&P 500; high-growth names trade 30+; hyper-growth or speculative can be 100+ or negative.
ROIC
6.6%What percentage return the business earns on every dollar of capital (equity + debt) deployed in operations. The cleanest measure of business quality.Above ~15% is high-quality; consistently above 25% suggests a real moat. Below the company's cost of capital is value-destroying.
Op margin
9.3%Operating profit (after sales, marketing, R&D, and overhead but before interest and taxes) as a percentage of revenue. The clearest view of how well the underlying business is run.Mature business above 20% is healthy; software businesses can run 30%+; commodity / retail businesses operate in single digits.
FCF yield
5.3%Free cash flow (operating cash flow minus capex) divided by the company's market cap. The cash-on-cash return you'd get owning the whole business at today's price.Above ~5% is attractive; below ~2% means you're paying up for growth. Capital-light businesses (software) run higher than capital-heavy ones (utilities).
P/S
1.3Same idea as P/E but per dollar of revenue. Useful for companies that aren't profitable yet, where P/E is meaningless.Under ~2 is cheap; software / SaaS often runs 8–15; well above 20 implies the market is pricing in very high future growth.
ROE
13.1%Net income as a percentage of shareholders' equity. Similar to ROIC but counts only the equity side.Above 20% is strong, but can be inflated by leverage — a heavily indebted company can show high ROE with weak underlying ROIC.
Gross margin
14.9%Revenue minus the direct cost of producing what was sold, as a percentage of revenue. The first read on whether the product is structurally profitable.Software / SaaS is typically 70%+; consumer goods 30–50%; commodity / hardware businesses can be under 20%.
D/E
1.3Total debt divided by shareholders' equity. Measures how much the business runs on borrowed money versus owner capital.Under 1 is conservative; 1–2 is typical for mature businesses; over 2 is leveraged and more sensitive to interest rates.
