“While we were content with full-year results, several small detractors held fourth-quarter performance back by about 1%-2% in total for company-specific reasons that we generally view as temporary. Parsons Corporation (NYSE:PSN) did not win a new FAA contract. While that was disappointing, we still expect the company to hit management’s goals of mid-single-digit percentage growth or better. We also suspect the company will end up with pieces of the new Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) contract.”
