Bookings were the quarter's standout signal, with trailing twelve-month bookings reaching $27.80 billion on a 1.4x book-to-bill ratio, underpinned by two new contracts each exceeding $1.00 billion in total contract value. Adjusted operating margin held at 15.6%, expanding 40 basis points year-over-year, while the company accelerated share repurchases to $368.00 million in the quarter and lifted its full-year shareholder return target to $2.00 billion from $1.70 billion. Looking ahead, management guided Q3 revenue to $5.27 to $5.35 billion, though a one-time non-cash tax charge of approximately $400.00 million tied to the One Big Beautiful Bill Act is expected to weigh heavily on reported GAAP EPS next quarter; the company also faces a pending $380 million lawsuit from Clorox tied to a 2023 cybersecurity incident. Full-year adjusted EPS guidance stands at $5.08 to $5.22.
