Defense and Homeland Security Sector Ideas

>>> Booz Allen Hamilton (BAH) -- It’s easy to overlook the defense contractors that provide essential services to U.S. intelligence agencies. But as geopolitical tensions simmer, the mission-critical work they provide becomes more crucial than ever. One name I’ve had my eye on is Booz Allen Hamilton (NYSE:BAH).

Booz Allen works extensively with agencies like the NSA, NGA, and CIA. This quarter, revenues grew an impressive 18%, showcasing Booz Allen’s vital role in areas like cybersecurity and artificial intelligence. Adjusted earnings per share also beat expectations at $1.22, up 18.4% year-over-year.

While the stock has slipped 13% from its highs this year amid a broader defense sector pullback, I see a strong upside from current levels. Booz Allen continues to boast industry-leading organic revenue growth and margin expansion. And with a record backlog of $31.3 billion and a qualified pipeline, it has excellent visibility into future growth.

Moreover, geopolitical threats like cyberattacks, climate change, and rising global instability aren’t going away anytime soon. That means demand for mission-critical contractors like Booz Allen, that help U.S. intelligence agencies respond to these threats, will only intensify over time.
