Contract Option Exercises — February 13, 2026

Three bullish contracts lead with $246M obligated and $122M+ potential from options, locking multi-year revenue through 2026+.

Accenture's $73M obligation shows $57M outlaid in <1 year on DOE cyber task order, doubling potential to $145M.

Veracity's $74M obligation (59% outlaid) on 9-year EPICS contract supports neutral signal amid task order dependencies.

Firm-fixed price in top two contracts ($173M) risks cost overruns on Job Corps ops and wastewater maintenance through 2026.

$25M+ unobligated balance in Veracity/Accenture raises funding uncertainty on delivery orders.

Foreign-owned recipients (Veolia, Accenture) in US-Mexico boundary and DOE cyber contracts face ownership scrutiny.

Unobligated options totaling $133M ($87M Career, $10M Veolia, $9M Veracity, $72M Accenture) for exercise.

Extensions to 2026-2027 in infra/services signal follow-on potential post base periods.

50% value in CA (Job Corps, wastewater) and 50% DC (FAA, DOE) underscores regional dominance in gov outsourcing.

Dominant pricing (75% of records) provides visibility but caps margins amid inflation.
