Here is why I am bullish on BWMN here at $42.90: Revenue grew from $346.3M in FY 2023 to $490.0M in FY 2025 while operating income swung to $19.7M.. Compare BWMN's 4.0% operating margin and 6.2% ROIC against the rest of Professional Services. As long as cash conversion holds up, dips toward $40.75 are getting bought.
Both sides have a point here — BWMN's 14/20 balance sheet score keeps downside contained, so the real swing factor next earnings call is backlog and FCF conversion.
I respect the product at Bowman Consulting Group Ltd., but the stock at $42.90 is a different story. A trailing P/E of 57.8 and EV/EBITDA of 33.7 sit against a 6.2% ROIC and 4.5% FCF yield.. FCF yield is 4.5% and RQD sits at 60/100 (C-) — why pay up here when you can wait for next quarter's numbers?
