V2X reported robust second-quarter 2026 financial results, with revenue climbing 17% year-over-year to $1.26 billion. This growth was propelled by ramp-ups in training and aerospace programs, alongside continued national security activities.
The company has elevated its full-year 2026 guidance for revenue, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted diluted earnings per share. At the midpoint of the updated forecast, V2X anticipates approximately 10% year-over-year increases in revenue and adjusted EBITDA.
Despite a significant reduction expected in Kuwait activities during the second half of 2026, which contributed substantially in the first half, V2X remains optimistic. The company projects national security support missions to continue through 2026 and into early 2027, maintaining a dynamic operating environment.
