2 DISCLAIMER Forward Looking Safe Harbor Statement Certain statements contained in this presentation and in related comments by our management include “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Examples of forward-looking statements include information concerning Booz Allen’s preliminary financial results, financial outlook and guidance, including forecasted revenue, Diluted EPS, Adjusted Diluted EPS, free cash flow, future quarterly dividends, future tax rates and future improvements in operating margins, as well as any other statement that does not directly relate to any historical or current fact. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “forecasts,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “projects,” “outlook,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” “preliminary,” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give you no assurance these expectations will prove to have been correct. These forward-looking statements relate to future events or our future financial performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. A number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in or implied by these forward- looking statements, including those factors discussed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021, which can be found at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. All forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing cautionary statements. All such statements speak only as of the date made and, except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Data Information Booz Allen discloses in the following information Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, and Free Cash Flow which are not recognized measurements under GAAP, and when analyzing Booz Allen’s performance or liquidity as applicable, investors should (i) evaluate each adjustment in our reconciliation of revenue to Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses, operating income to Adjusted Operating Income, net income to Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS, and net cash provided by operating activities to Free Cash Flow, and the explanatory footnotes regarding those adjustments, each as defined under GAAP, (ii) use Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue Excluding Billable Expenses, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Diluted EPS in addition to, and not as an alternative to revenue, operating income, net income or diluted EPS as measures of operating results, and (iii) use Free Cash Flow in addition, and not as an alternative, to net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity, each as defined under GAAP. The Appendix includes a reconciliation of Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, and Free Cash Flow to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Booz Allen presents these supplemental performance measures because it believes that these measures provide investors and securities analysts with important supplemental information with which to evaluate Booz Allen’s performance, long term earnings potential, or liquidity, as applicable, and to enable them to assess Booz Allen’s performance on the same basis as management. These supplemental performance and liquidity measurements may vary from and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures by other companies in Booz Allen’s industry. With respect to our expectations under “Financial Outlook,” reconciliation of Adjusted Diluted EPS guidance to the closest corresponding GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable efforts on a forward-looking basis due to our inability to predict our stock price, equity grants and dividend declarations during the course of fiscal 2022. Projecting future stock price, equity grants and dividends to be declared would be necessary to accurately calculate the difference between Adjusted Diluted EPS and GAAP EPS as a result of the effects of the two-class method and related possible dilution used in the calculation of EPS. Consequently, any attempt to disclose such reconciliation would imply a degree of precision that could be confusing or misleading to investors. We expect the variability of the above charges to have an unpredictable, and potentially significant, impact on our future GAAP financial results. For the same reason, a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue guidance to the closest corresponding GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable efforts on a forward-looking basis due to our inability to predict specific quantifications of the amounts that would be required to reconcile such measures.

FISCAL 2021 FINANCIAL RESULTS & FISCAL 2022 OUTLOOK


 
15 KEY FINANCIAL RESULTS FISCAL YEAR 2021 RESULTS (1) Comparisons are to prior fiscal year; totals may not sum due to rounding. FISCAL YEAR 2021 (1) Revenue $7.9 billion 5.3% Increase Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses $5.5 billion 7.1% Increase Adjusted EBITDA $840 million 11.4% Increase Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue 10.7% 5.7% Increase Net Income $609 million 26.2% Increase Adjusted Net Income $542 million 20.7% Increase Diluted EPS $4.37 28.2% Increase Adjusted Diluted EPS $3.90 22.6% Increase Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities $719 million 30.3% Increase


 
16 FINANCIAL OUTLOOK REAFFIRMING FULL YEAR FY22 GUIDANCE OPERATING PERFORMANCE Revenue Growth 7.0 – 10.0% Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue Mid 10% Adjusted Diluted EPS(1) $4.10 – $4.30 Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities $800 – $850 million (1) Assumes an effective tax rate of 22–24%; an average share count of 134–137 million, and interest expense of $92-95 million.


 
17 FY22 ADEPS WALK REAFFIRMING FY22 ADEPS GUIDANCE April FY22 ADEPS Guidance $4.10 - $4.30 Bond Interest ~$(0.09) Operational, Other Below-the-Line Items (e.g., Tax, Share Count) $0.09 July FY22 ADEPS Guidance(1) $4.10 - $4.30 (1) Reaffirming our FY22 guidance, which includes the added interest expense related to the issuance of $500 million of senior notes in Q1 FY22.


 
18 FY22 INCOME TAX DRIVERS REAFFIRMING EFFECTIVE TAX RATE BRIDGE FROM FY21 TO FY22 FY21 Effective Tax Rate on an Adjusted Diluted EPS Basis 20.1% Puts and Takes: '– Marginal tax rate on incremental pretax income(1) +~0.5 – 1.0% '– State and local income tax credits(2) +~0.5 – 1.0% '– Other discrete items(3) +~1.0 – 2.0% FY22 Expected Annual Effective Tax Rate(4) 22.0 – 24.0% NOTES: 1. As the Company's federal/state statutory tax rate is higher than its effective tax rate, a higher marginal tax rate is applied to incremental forecasted pre-tax income, which increases the overall effective tax rate year over year. 2. The Company expects to realize lower state and local tax credits during FY22, predominantly due to the impact of COVID-19 and the ability to generate wage and other credits in various jurisdictions due to teleworking. 3. During Q3 FY21, the Company released $10.2 million in reserves for uncertain tax positions related to an acquired subsidiary, due to the expiration of the statute of limitations. 4. The estimated annual effective tax rate guidance does not take into account potential tax headwinds that could occur, including any impacts of corporate tax rate reform.


 
APPENDIX


 
20 NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION • "Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses" represents revenue less billable expenses. We use Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses because it provides management useful information about the Company's operating performance by excluding the impact of costs that are not indicative of the level of productivity of our consulting staff headcount and our overall direct labor, which management believes provides useful information to our investors about our core operations. • "Adjusted Operating Income" represents operating income before financing transaction costs, fees, losses, supplemental employee benefits due to COVID-19, and acquisition-related costs including significant acquisition amortization. We prepare Adjusted Operating Income to eliminate the impact of items we do not consider indicative of ongoing operating performance due to their inherent unusual, extraordinary, or non-recurring nature or because they result from an event of a similar nature. • "Adjusted EBITDA" represents net income before income taxes, net interest and other expense and depreciation and amortization and before certain other items, including financing transaction costs, supplemental employee benefits due to COVID-19, and acquisition related costs. “Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue” is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue. Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses. The Company prepares Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses to eliminate the impact of items it does not consider indicative of ongoing operating performance due to their inherent unusual, extraordinary or non-recurring nature or because they result from an event of a similar nature. • "Adjusted Net Income" represents net income before: (i) financing costs, (ii) financing transaction costs, (iii) supplemental employee benefits due to COVID-19, (iv) research and development tax credits, (v) release of income tax reserves, (vi) remeasurement of deferred tax assets/liabilities, (vii) loss on debt extinguishment and (viii) amortization or write-off of debt issuance costs and write-off of original issue discount, in each case net of the tax effect where appropriate calculated using an assumed effective tax rate. We prepare Adjusted Net Income to eliminate the impact of items, net of tax, we do not consider indicative of ongoing operating performance due to their inherent unusual, extraordinary, or non-recurring nature or because they result from an event of a similar nature. We view Adjusted Net Income as an important indicator of performance consistent with the manner in which management measures and forecasts the Company's performance. • "Adjusted Diluted EPS" represents diluted EPS calculated using Adjusted Net Income as opposed to net income. Additionally, Adjusted Diluted EPS does not contemplate any adjustments to net income as required under the two-class method as disclosed in the footnotes to our consolidated financial statements in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021. • "Free Cash Flow" represents the net cash generated from operating activities less the impact of purchases of property, equipment, and software.


 
21 NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION (a) Represents costs associated with the acquisition efforts of the Company related to transactions for which the Company has entered into a letter of intent to acquire a controlling financial interest in the target entity. Acquisition costs primarily include costs associated with (i) due diligence activities, (ii) compensation expenses associated with employee retention, and (iii) legal and advisory fees associated with the completion of the acquisition of Liberty IT Solutions, LLC ("Liberty") (b) Reflects expenses associated with debt refinancing activities incurred during the first quarter of fiscal 2022. (c) Represents the supplemental contribution to employees' dependent care FSA accounts in response to COVID-19.

23 FINANCIAL RESULTS – KEY DRIVERS First Quarter Fiscal 2022 – Below is a summary of the key factors driving results for the fiscal 2022 first quarter ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the prior year period: • Revenue increased by 1.7% to $2.0 billion and Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses increased 1.9% to $1.4 billion, primarily driven by sustained client demand and headcount to meet that demand, primarily offset by higher than normal staff utilization in the comparable prior year period driven by fewer paid time off ("PTO") days taken by our employees which resulted in increases in our direct labor and corresponding generation of revenue. • Operating income decreased 26.4% to $141.3 million and Adjusted Operating Income increased 10.8% to $213.1 million. The decrease in operating income was primarily driven by $66.8 million of acquisition costs related to the acquisition of Liberty IT, Solutions LLC ("Liberty") in the first quarter of fiscal 2022. These decreases were partially offset by strong contract performance and cost management of unallowable spending. The increase in Adjusted Operating Income was primarily driven by the same factors driving revenue growth. • Net income decreased 28.8% to $92.1 million and Adjusted Net Income increased 12.3% to $145.9 million. These changes were primarily driven by the same factors as operating income and Adjusted Operating Income. • EBITDA decreased 20.5% to $169.0 million and Adjusted EBITDA increased 11.8% to $238.1 million. These changes were due to the same factors as operating income and Adjusted Operating Income. • Diluted EPS decreased to $0.67 from $0.92 and Adjusted Diluted EPS increased to $1.07 from $0.93. The changes were primarily driven by the same factors as Net Income and Adjusted Net Income, respectively, as well as a lower share count in the first quarter of fiscal 2022. • As of June 30, 2021, total backlog was $26.8 billion, an increase of 16.5%. Funded backlog was $3.5 billion, an increase of 1.6%. • Net cash used in operating activities was $10.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $140.4 million in the prior year period. The decrease in operating cash flows was primarily driven by lower collections on accounts receivable, largely attributable to timing around receivables associated with the integration of our new enterprise financial system, as well as approximately $66.8 million of acquisition costs incurred and paid during the first quarter of fiscal 2022, primarily associated with our acquisition of Liberty. These impacts were partially offset by lower disbursements in the first quarter of 2022. Free Cash Flow was $(19.7) million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $120.4 million in the prior year period. Free Cash Flow was affected by the same factors affecting cash provided by operating activities, as well as a decrease in capital expenditures driven by lower facilities expenses reflecting the investment towards technology and tools needed to support the virtual work environment. We continue to modernize our corporate information technology infrastructure, including the implementation of our new financial management systems on April 1, 2021.


 
24 FINANCIAL RESULTS – KEY DRIVERS Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2021 – Below is a summary of the key factors driving results for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021 as compared to the prior year: • Revenue increased by 5.3% to $7.9 billion and Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses increased 7.1% to $5.5 billion, with both increases primarily driven by strong execution on sustained client demand and headcount to meet that demand. The Company also benefited from higher staff utilization in the first half of the year as compared to the prior year driven by fewer PTO days taken by our employees which resulted in increases in our direct labor and corresponding generation of revenue growth. Revenue growth also benefited from an overall increase in billable expenses primarily attributable to an increase in use of subcontractors driven by client demand. The increase was partially offset by decreases in expenses from contracts which require the Company to incur direct and travel expenses on behalf of clients compared to the prior year. The impact of COVID- 19 drove volatility in the timing and magnitude of billable expenses. • Operating Income increased 12.7% to $754.4 million and Adjusted Operating Income increased 12.2% to $755.4 million. Increases in both were primarily driven by the same factors driving revenue growth, as well as strong cost management efforts, and reductions in certain types of expenses, like travel and meetings. These were partially offset by the inability to recognize revenue on, or bill for, fee on certain contracts involving a ready workforce of approximately $24.0 million. • Net income increased 26.2% to $609.0 million and Adjusted Net Income increased 20.7% to $541.5 million. These changes were primarily driven by the same factors as Operating Income and Adjusted Operating Income. Net income was also affected by a $76.7 million tax benefit recognized in the fourth quarter resulting from the change in certain tax methods of accounting. • EBITDA increased 11.8% to $838.7 million and Adjusted EBITDA increased 11.4% to $839.7 million. These increases were due to the same factors as Operating Income and Adjusted Operating Income. • Diluted EPS increased to $4.37 from $3.41 and Adjusted Diluted EPS increased to $3.90 from $3.18. The changes were primarily driven by the same factors as Net Income and Adjusted Net Income, respectively, as well as decreased interest expense and a lower share count in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. • As of March 31, 2021, total backlog was $24.0 billion, an increase of 15.9%. Funded backlog was $3.5 billion, an increase of 2.8%. • Net cash provided by operating activities was $718.7 million for the year ended March 31, 2021 as compared to $551.4 million in the prior year. The increase in operating cash flows was primarily driven by collections growth in excess of revenue growth. Higher income taxes paid in fiscal 2021 were offset by lower disbursements primarily attributable to strong cost management and lower expenses primarily attributable to COVID-19. Free Cash Flow was $631.5 million for the twelve months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to $423.3 million in the prior year period. Free Cash Flow was affected by the same factors affecting cash provided by operating activities, as well as a decrease in capital expenditures reflecting a shift away from facilities investment towards technology and tools needed to support the virtual work environment. Additionally, we continue to modernize our corporate information technology infrastructure including the implementation of new financial management systems on April 1, 2021.
