3QFY26 Results. Revenue for the fiscal third quarter of 2026 totaled $44.2 million, down from $83.3 million in 3Q25 and below our $50 million estimate. Gross margin of 16.7% fell from 19.1% last year and was below our 20% projection. Partly reflecting one-time charges, DLH reported a net loss of $16.8 million, or $1.16/sh, versus net income of $289,000, or $0.02/sh last year. Third quarter adjusted EBITDA came in at $3.4 million, or 7.6% of revenue, down from $8.1 million and 9.7% last year. Notably, the final CMOP contracts transitioned during the quarter.
Operating Environment. Organic growth continues to be the number one corporate priority. Organic growth will come from two sources: on-contract growth and new awards. We believe on-contract growth will drive near-term growth. Management has a number of contracts with clients that can be expanded. In terms of new business, the government procurement markets have demonstrated improved clarity and stability in recent months, marking a significant improvement in the contracting environment when compared to fiscal 2025 and earlier in 2026.
