What the Analysts think about BWX Technologies
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for BWX Technologies stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Order backlog reached a record $6 billion in Q2 2025, a 70.2% increase year-over-year, providing strong multi-year revenue visibility across both Government and Commercial segments.
Following strong H1 results, BWXT raised its 2025 adjusted EBITDA guidance to $565 million–$575 million and its non-GAAP EPS outlook to $3.65–$3.75, reflecting management’s confidence in continued operational momentum.
BWXT secured contracts worth about $2.6 billion for the U.S. Naval Nuclear Propulsion Program in July 2025, reinforcing its leadership in naval reactor manufacturing and supporting growth in its Government Operations division.
76% of BWXT’s revenue in 2024 came from U.S. Government contracts, creating exposure to risk if annual federal appropriations are delayed or reduced, which could result in project cancellations.
Commercial Operations’ operating income dropped 59% year-over-year to $6.9 million in Q2 2025, highlighting ongoing margin pressures from project scheduling and investment expenses.
Rising raw material costs, particularly for zirconium used in nuclear fuel tubing, have increased expenses in the Commercial segment and compressed profitability.
