Science Applications International Shares Tumble After Q1 Earnings Disappointment

The share value of Science Applications International Corporation SAIC witnessed a significant decline of 11.8% as markets closed on Monday, following the announcement of its first quarter earnings for fiscal year 2025. The drop came in the wake of the company's earnings per share (EPS) failing to meet analysts' expectations. SAIC, a prominent player offering technical and engineering solutions, reported an adjusted EPS of $1.92, which did not align with the projected figures by Zacks Investment Research.
