Leidos Holdings (NYSE:LDOS) has seen considerable growth over the past five years, with investors realizing gains of 116%. During this time, various institutional investors, including CHURCHILL MANAGEMENT Corp, Running Oak Capital LLC, and Marcum Wealth LLC, have made new investments in the company. Additionally, the company has achieved strong revenue growth amid earnings challenges, surpassing analyst revenue forecasts in Q1. They've also upped their '24 EPS view after beating Q1 earnings. However, the company's performance in the market has been inconsistent despite a $738M deal to provide cybersecurity support. Notably, the shares' buying and selling activities have been diverse, with some like Wellington Management Group LLP significantly reducing their stakes while others like Virtu Financial LLC and PNC Financial Services Group increased their positions. LDOS also has a solid institutional backing as institutions own 77% of the company. Despite this, the company's Return on Equity (ROE) of 4.9% has raised concerns. In spite of all, Leidos' firm position in the defense space and consistent growth in returns on capital are compelling reasons to add LDOS stock to one's portfolio.
