Company Report

KBR’s Portfolio Transformation Has Led to a Higher-Margin and Lower-Risk Business Profile

Under the leadership of CEO Stuart Bradie, who took the helm in 2014, KBR has focused on shifting its portfolio toward differentiated government solutions. The portfolio rebalancing, which included the acquisitions of Wyle and HTSI in 2016, SGT in 2018, and Centauri in 2020, has already started to bear fruit and led to improved results in recent quarters. In 2020, KBR restructured its portfolio into two segments: government solutions and sustainable technology solutions.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

KBR’s sustainable technology solutions segment is well positioned to benefit from growing demand for solutions that address energy efficiency and energy transition.

Bears

KBR faces high uncertainty, as volatility in oil and natural gas prices could lead customers to delay, suspend, or cancel projects.
