What the Analysts think about Parsons
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Parsons stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Parsons stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Demand remains strong: Q2 contract awards rose 24%, the company delivered a 1.2x book-to-bill ratio, and Federal Solutions bookings increased 51%. Total backlog reached $9.3 billion, with 71% funded, giving Parsons useful revenue visibility. (Yahoo Finance)
Parsons is building a stronger position in defence technology, space and intelligence. Recent awards and contract vehicles include a $14 billion missile and space intelligence effort, a $981 million Space Force vehicle and a $350 million Navy ISR programme, although task orders will still need to be won. (Parsons, Wedbush)
The portfolio reshaping could improve earnings quality. Excluding $118 million of charges, Q2 adjusted EBITDA rose 8% and the margin was 10.1%; Critical Infrastructure reached an 11.9% margin as Parsons reduced lower-margin pass-through work. (The Motley Fool, Yahoo Finance)
The Q2 result exposed substantial earnings volatility. Parsons swung to a $15 million net loss after $118 million of portfolio and joint-venture charges, while full-year adjusted EBITDA guidance fell to $500 million-$560 million from $615 million-$675 million. (Yahoo Finance)
Strong bookings are not yet converting reliably into revenue. Parsons cut 2026 revenue guidance by $300 million because of federal funding delays, a contract protest, slower infrastructure ramp-up and planned divestitures, leaving results exposed to government procurement timing. (The Motley Fool, StockStory)
Cash conversion and leverage are risks while Parsons funds growth and acquisitions. Q2 operating cash flow fell to $58 million from $160 million a year earlier, Middle East customer payments were delayed, and total long-term debt stood at about $1.47 billion after the Altamira acquisition.
