What Happened?
On May 11, 2026, AECOM announced its second quarter fiscal 2026 results, including, in relevant part, that quarterly operating cash flow was $4 million, down 98% year over year, and adjusted free cash flow which swung to negative $27 million.
In the accompanying earnings call, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, Gaurav Kapoor, revealed “longer-than-anticipated claim resolution on certain projects” among other things, impacted the quarter. Kapoor further stated these were “projects we bid in fiscal year 2019 and 2020, two projects” for two clients, and that “individual claims for these two clients have gone through the resolution process. And we’ve been successful on each one of them. But it’s just been very slow and dragged out on the resolution process. That is what has surprised us as to how long the process has taken.”
On this news, AECOM’s stock price fell $9.55, or 12%, to close at $69.95 per share on May 12, 2026, thereby injuring investors.
On May 12, 2026, AECOM filed its quarterly report on Form 10-Q, which showed that significant claims recorded in contract assets and other non-current assets were approximately $680 million as of March 31, 2026, compared with approximately $400 million as of September 30, 2025.
