Bulls say
CRA International Inc. has demonstrated a positive trajectory, with new project lead flow and project originations increasing by 5% and 3% year-over-year, respectively. The company’s largest practice, Antitrust & Competition Economics (A&CE), achieved record quarterly revenue growth, reflecting strong demand for its consultancy services. In Q1 2025, adjusted earnings per share (EPS) rose by 13% year-over-year to $2.22, surpassing both the company's estimate and consensus expectations, indicating robust financial performance.
Bears say
CRA International has experienced a decline in consultant headcount, which decreased by 5.0% year-over-year, totaling 947 consultants at the end of Q1/25. Furthermore, the company's non-GAAP EBITDA margin guidance for FY/25 has been projected to decline to a range of 12.0-13.0%, down from the all-time high of 13.2% achieved in FY/24. This combination of reduced workforce and declining profitability margins raises concerns about the company's operational efficiency and overall financial health.
