  • Non-GAAP EPS1 Was $1.86
  • EBITDA1 Was $53.0 Million; Adjusted EBITDA1 Was $53.4 Million, or 11.2% of Total Revenues
  • Contract Awards Were $402 Million for a Quarterly Book-to-Bill Ratio of 0.85 and TTM Book-to-Bill Ratio of 1.09

RESTON, Va., Aug. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- ICF (NASDAQ: ICFI), a global consulting and technology services provider, reported results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026.

Management Commentary

John Wasson, chair and chief executive officer, said, "Second quarter business trends in our markets were in line with our expectations and continued to reflect the benefits of our integrated business model. Revenues from commercial clients increased 5.9% year-on-year, federal government client revenues continued to improve on a sequential basis driven by technology modernization, and revenues from international government clients climbed by 35%. This enabled us to report total second quarter 2026 revenues that were similar to prior-year levels, in advance of our return to year-on-year growth for 2026 with positive quarterly comparisons beginning in this year's third quarter.

"We maintained our strong margins in the second quarter, benefiting from the contribution of higher-margin commercial client revenues and the disciplined management of our cost structure. This performance is aligned with our long-standing commitment to increase adjusted EBITDA margins by 10 to 20 basis points annually, while continuing to invest in our key growth markets and advance our technology capabilities.

"Second quarter contract awards of $402 million were achieved despite delays in procurement decisions related to federal government proposals. ICF's trailing twelve-month book-to-bill ratio was a healthy 1.09, and our business development pipeline reached $9.3 billion, representing considerable sequential growth. We have seen early signs of an increase in award decisions. Specifically, since the end of the second quarter we have been awarded contracts in excess of $200 million."

Second Quarter Business Highlights in Key Growth Markets

Commercial Energy
ICF continues to experience strong demand from utility clients for its market-leading energy efficiency, flexible load management, electrification and battery storage programs. Revenues from this part of the company's commercial energy business increased 6.7% to account for approximately 82% of second quarter 2026 commercial energy revenues. Energy advisory work for commercial clients increased 2.5% in the quarter, reflecting the timing of client transaction activity, and increased 8.6% for the first half. Energy advisory work accounted for 12.2 % of second quarter 2026 commercial energy revenues. Other commercial energy comparisons declined year-on-year due to the wind-down of several wind energy projects through last year's third quarter.

Commercial energy awards represented approximately 47% of second quarter contract awards, and commercial energy opportunities represented more than $1.5 billion of our pipeline at the end of the second quarter.

Additionally, ICF's energy work includes programs for federal and state agencies that provide us with greater insight into the regulatory and stakeholder environment, which strengthens our ability to meet and often exceed the milestones of our commercial energy contracts.

Technology Modernization
ICF has built out its technology modernization capabilities over the last six years, which in the second quarter represented approximately one-half of our $185 million in revenues from federal government clients. Over 80% of ICF's technology modernization work is performed under outcome-based, fixed-price contracts, the preferred contract vehicles for government technology projects. Our federal agency clients remain focused on data, AI, speed, efficiency and automation and continue to prioritize modernizing legacy systems and improving interoperability across the federal technology environment, areas that are closely aligned with ICF's expertise.

While primarily serving federal agency clients, our technology modernization capabilities are deployed across the company's client categories. Technology modernization opportunities represented approximately $2.6 billion of our pipeline at the end of the second quarter.

Disaster Recovery
ICF is a recognized leader in the development and implementation of disaster recovery and mitigation programs, which represent approximately 45% of the Company's state and local revenues. In the second quarter, ICF supported over 75 active disaster recovery programs in 22 states and territories and views the disaster management market as a driver of long-term growth. Fewer major disasters and funding delays recently have constrained near-term activity in this arena, but ICF continues to execute on substantial rebuilding and mitigation projects, which includes utilizing our environmental and climate expertise to advise state and local clients on optimal mitigation solutions. Additionally, we have expanded the offerings we provide to our state and local clients by leveraging our health expertise and advanced technology solutions. State and local government opportunities represented approximately $1.3 billion of the total pipeline at the end of the second quarter, and we expect year-on-year revenue growth from this client category in the second half of this year.

Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results

Second quarter 2026 total revenue was $474.5 million, compared to $476.2 million reported in the second quarter of 2025. Sequentially, total revenue increased 8.5% from the $437.5 million reported in the first quarter of 2026. Subcontractor and other direct costs were 25.6% of total revenues, compared to 23.6% in last year's second quarter. Gross margin was 37.2%, 10 basis points below the prior year period. Operating income was $39.9 million, with an operating margin on total revenue of 8.4%, compared to operating income of $40.0 million, with an operating margin of 8.4% in the prior year period. Net income totaled $26.9 million, versus $23.7 million reported in the second quarter of 2025. Diluted EPS was $1.49 per share, up 16.4%, benefiting from a 17.8% tax rate. This compares to $1.28 per share in the prior year, when the company's tax rate was 21.0%.

Non-GAAP EPS totaled $1.86 per share, up 12.0%, benefiting from the tax rate difference mentioned above. This compares to $1.66 per share reported in the comparable period in 2025. EBITDA was $53.0 million, similar to the $53.1 million reported in the year-ago quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was $53.4 million, and Adjusted EBITDA margin on total revenues was 11.2%, compared to 11.1% in the second quarter of 2025.

Cash flows from operations were $99.7 million in this year's second quarter, including $43.0 million in restricted cash tied to energy efficiency programs. Cash flows from operations excluding restricted cash were $56.7 million compared to $50.4 million on the same basis in last year's second quarter.

Backlog and New Business

Total backlog was $3.3 billion at the end of the second quarter of 2026. Funded backlog was more than $1.6 billion, or approximately 50% of the total backlog. The total value of contracts awarded in the 2026 second quarter was $402 million for a quarterly book-to-bill ratio of 0.85 and trailing twelve-month contract awards totaled $2.0 billion for a book-to-bill ratio of 1.09. The business development pipeline increased 9% sequentially to $9.3 billion.

Commercial Revenue Second Quarter 2026 Highlights

Commercial revenue was $166.0 million during the quarter, up 5.9% year-over-year.

  • Commercial revenue accounted for 35.0% of total revenue, up from 32.9% of total revenue in the 2025 second quarter.
  • Commercial energy revenues increased 4.4%, led by a 6.7% increase in utility programs, and represented 87.1% of commercial revenue.

Notable commercial awards won in the second quarter of 2026 included:

  • A new contract with Entergy Louisiana to implement its portfolio of residential, commercial and industrial energy efficiency programs.
  • A recompete contract with a consortium of Northeastern U.S. utilities to continue serving as lead implementer for its residential new construction energy efficiency program.

Revenue from government clients was $308.5 million during the quarter.

Year-on-year revenue comparisons were impacted by contract cancellations that occurred between February and May of last year, and a slower pace of new RFPs during that time. Federal government revenue accounted for 39.0% of total revenue, compared to 42.9% of total revenue in the second quarter of 2025.
  • U.S. state and local government revenue was $84.0 million, 1.9% below the $85.7 million reported in the year-ago quarter. State and local government clients represented 17.7% of total revenue, compared to 18.0% in the second quarter of 2025.

Dividend Declaration

On August 6, 2026, ICF declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.14 per share, payable on October 9, 2026, to shareholders of record on September 4, 2026.

Summary and Outlook

"We are looking ahead to a strong second half, led by accelerated growth in revenues from commercial energy and state & local government clients, continued double-digit growth in revenues from international government clients, and sequential growth in revenues from federal government clients in the third quarter, followed by a return to year-on-year growth in that client category in the fourth quarter. Approximately 90% of the revenues required to reach the midpoint of our guidance range for full year 2026 are already in backlog. This supports our expectation for revenues in the range of $1.89 billion to $1.96 billion, GAAP EPS from $5.95 to $6.25 and Non-GAAP EPS of $6.95 to $7.25. We expect operating cash flow to range from $135 million to $150 million, excluding the impact of restricted cash.

"In the last 18 months, we have demonstrated the resilience of ICF's business model and the agility of our professional staff and management teams, who have effectively pivoted to capture revenue opportunities while maintaining margins. These efforts, together with our investments in growth markets, have positioned ICF for growth in 2026 and a return to mid- to high-single digit growth in 2027.

"Demonstrating our confidence in ICF's long-term prospects, we repurchased 217,542 ICF shares in the second quarter, bringing our share repurchases to 435,055 for the first half of 2026," Mr. Wasson concluded.

Caution Concerning Forward-looking Statements 
Statements that are not historical facts and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties are "forward-looking statements" as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended. Such statements may concern our current expectations about our future results, plans, operations and prospects and involve certain risks, including those related to: the government contracting industry generally; our dependence on contracts with U.S. federal, state and local, and international government clients for the majority of our revenue; failure by Congress or other governmental bodies to approve budgets and appropriations in a timely fashion, reductions in government spending, and the impact of a lengthy federal government shutdown; the current Administration's policy changes, executive orders, and failure to spend Congressionally mandated appropriations, including the resulting effect on government audits and contract terminations; changes in federal government budgeting and spending priorities; our ability to estimate and control costs under our fixed-price contracts; the realization of our backlog; the dependence of our commercial work on sectors of the global economy that are highly cyclical; and our ability to acquire and successfully integrate businesses. These and other factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated in our forward-looking statements are described in the "Risk Factors" section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, and in our subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The forward-looking statements included herein are made only as of the date hereof, and we specifically disclaim any obligation to update these statements in the future.

Note on Forward-Looking Non-GAAP Measures
The company does not reconcile its forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding U.S. GAAP measures, due to the variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections and because not all of the information necessary for a quantitative reconciliation of these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures (such as the effect of share-based compensation or the impact of future extraordinary or non-recurring events like acquisitions) is available to the company without unreasonable effort. For the same reasons, the company is unable to estimate the probable significance of the unavailable information. The company provides forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures that it believes will be achievable, but it cannot accurately predict all of the components of the adjusted calculations, and the U.S. GAAP financial measures may be materially different than the non-GAAP financial measures.

(2) These tables provide reconciliations of Non-GAAP financial measures to the most applicable U.S. GAAP numbers. While we believe that these Non-GAAP financial measures may be useful in evaluating our financial information, they should be considered supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Other companies may define similarly titled Non-GAAP measures differently and, accordingly, care should be exercised in understanding how we define these measures. 


(3) Reconciliations of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Non-GAAP Diluted EPS were calculated using numbers as reported in U.S. GAAP.


(4) These are primarily third-party costs related to potential and/or closed acquisitions and integration of closed acquisitions.


(5) These costs are due to involuntary employee termination benefits for (i) our officers and (ii) group of employees who have been notified that they will be terminated as part of a business reorganization or exit. 


(6) These charges and adjustments are related to previously exited leased facilities and the closure of certain international offices.


(7) Net Income Margin Percent on Revenue was calculated by dividing net income by revenue.


(8) EBITDA Margin Percent and Adjusted EBITDA Margin Percent on Revenue were calculated by dividing the Non-GAAP measure by the corresponding revenue.


(9) The amortization of intangible assets acquired from business combinations totaled $7.6 million and $9.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and $15.2 million and $18.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.


(10) Income tax effects were calculated using the effective tax rate, adjusted for certain discrete items, if any, of 17.8% and 21.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and 21.1% and 23.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
