Winston Score History

The full picture

CACI International is a technology and services company that works almost entirely for the U.S. federal government. It helps agencies like the Department of Defense and intelligence community with things like cybersecurity, data analysis, IT systems, and surveillance technology. CACI is one of the larger government IT contractors in the United States, competing alongside companies like Leidos and Booz Allen Hamilton.

The company makes money by winning long-term government contracts, where it gets paid for the hours its employees work or for delivering specific technology solutions. Nearly all of its roughly $7 billion in annual revenue comes from U.S. government clients, which makes its business stable but also heavily dependent on federal budget decisions. The key growth driver is rising government spending on national security and modernizing aging military IT systems, while the main risk is that budget cuts or continuing resolutions in Congress can delay or cancel contracts.

Growth + cash flow

CACI International is a rare growth stock that's already generating positive cash flow while growing at 18%. The Winston Score doesn't fully credit this transition from "burner" to "earner."

The Winston Score above measures business quality today. Growth stocks often score lower because they invest in the future rather than maximising current profits. These metrics show what matters most for evaluating that future.
