1Q26 Results. DLH reported revenue of $68.9 million, down from $90.8 million y-o-y, and modestly below our $70.1 million projection. The decline reflects the loss of certain programs to small business set-aside contractors. Adjusted EBITDA was $6.5 million versus our $6.2 million estimate. Net loss was $1.3 million, or a loss of $0.09/sh, versus our estimate of a loss of $1 million, or a loss of 0.07/sh.
Cost Scaling Initiatives. With the loss of the Head Start program and winding down of the CMOP contracts in 2026, DLH undertook some cost reduction measures in the first and second fiscal quarters to align expenses with current revenue volumes. We expect management to closely watch expenses until top line improvement returns.
