Consolidated revenue in the third quarter was $1.2 billion compared to $1.7 billion in the third quarter of 2014, the company said in a statement.

“KBR’s transformation is well underway and we are on track to achieve the 2016 targets for segment profit margin percentages and $200 million in annual cost savings,” said Stuart Bradie, President and Chief Executive Officer of KBR.
