CACI International

What CACI International does

CACI International Inc (NYSE: CACI) is a publicly traded U.S. national security technology company headquartered in Reston, Virginia, founded in 1962 and employing approximately 27,000 people. The company generates approximately 90% of its revenue from contracts with U.S. federal government agencies — primarily the Department of Defense, the intelligence community, and the Department of Homeland Security — and an additional foothold in NASA, serving as a prime contractor on multi-award ID/IQ vehicles such as SeaPort Next Generation, the USAF Base Infrastructure Modernization contract, and the CDAO Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace. CACI reports roughly $9.16 billion in FY2025 revenue with FY2026 guidance of $9.5-9.6 billion, a $33.4 billion backlog, and a 1.2x trailing-twelve-month book-to-bill ratio.

The company's offerings are organized around seven core capability areas — C3I, Cyber, Digital Solutions, Enterprise IT, Mission and Engineering Support, Space, and Spectrum Superiority — and span proprietary hardware, software, and integrated services. Flagship product lines include counter-unmanned systems (SkyValor, BEAM 3.0, CORIAN, SPaRK, and the SkyTracker suite, with 700+ Merlin systems deployed globally), optical communications terminals (OCT, CrossBeam, SkyLight) manufactured in Orlando, the Archon Commercial Solutions for Classified suite, the Gimbal Technology Suite of EO/IR imaging systems (CM41, CM62, CM102, CM234, CM262), and the Agile Solution Factory DevSecOps delivery model. The company has shifted its mix from 80% expertise/20% technology a decade ago to 40% expertise/60% technology through sustained M&A, including the $2.6 billion ARKA Group acquisition (March 2026), Azure Summit Technology ($1.275 billion, 2024), Applied Insight (2024), and Quadrint (2024).

CACI monetizes through competitive-bid government contracts structured as time-and-materials, fixed-price, or cost-reimbursable arrangements on multi-year cycles, supplemented by hardware sales (optical terminals, gimbals, counter-UAS systems) and managed services. Recent capital structure actions include a $500 million senior notes issuance (February 2026, 6.375% due 2033) to fund the ARKA acquisition and a $1.0 billion notes offering (June 2025) to refinance the revolving credit facility. The company is led by President and CEO John Mengucci, CFO Jeffrey MacLauchlan, and newly appointed COO Dr. Dave Young (from Lockheed Martin's $7 billion National Security Space business).
