BWX Technologies books $189 million annual fuel contract for naval nuclear propulsion
BWX Technologies booked a $189 million annual naval nuclear-fuel contract during the third quarter of 2026, supporting specialized fuel production for US Navy nuclear-powered vessels. Management disclosed the award during a November 2 investor briefing and said negotiations were continuing on the next multiyear pricing arrangement for naval propulsion work. The company's government operations segment reported four-percent revenue growth and a 22-percent increase in adjusted EBITDA to $144 million, despite lower materials purchases affecting naval propulsion revenue. BWX expects a larger naval propulsion workload in 2027, while the $189 million award represents one annual contract rather than a finalized longer-term agreement.
