DHI Group announced the acquisition of Point Solutions Group, a defense‑focused engineering and technology staffing firm, for an estimated $5.5 million. The deal consists of a $5 million cash payment and a $0.5 million earn‑out tied to 2026 revenue targets. The transaction brings Point Solutions’ Top Secret facility clearance and its deep experience in aerospace, cybersecurity and other U.S. defense markets into DHI’s ClearanceJobs platform.
The acquisition is positioned to broaden ClearanceJobs’ offering beyond candidate matching. By adding Point Solutions’ consulting and workforce‑solutions capabilities, DHI can provide end‑to‑end staffing services to defense contractors and federal agencies, creating new recurring revenue streams and higher‑margin opportunities. The move also deepens DHI’s moat in the government‑contracting talent market, where the U.S. defense budget for fiscal 2026 is projected to reach roughly $1.1 trillion, with the Senate passing an $838.7 billion defense spending bill.
DHI’s recent financial performance underscores the strategic fit. In Q4 2025, the company generated $31.4 million in revenue, a 10% decline year‑over‑year, and reported a net income of $1.4 million ($0.03 per diluted share). Full‑year 2025 revenue totaled $127.8 million, also down 10% YoY. Management has set a 2026 adjusted EBITDA margin target of 25%, signaling confidence that the acquisition will support margin expansion through operational synergies and cross‑selling.
"We were very attracted to Point Solutions Group given the strength of the business and the company’s unique market position," said Art Zeile, CEO of DHI Group. "The acquisition catapults the ClearanceJobs business into a new chapter, expanding its mission of delivering an end‑to‑end solution to employers hiring talent with proven qualifications to safeguard national security." Paige Goss, founder and CEO of Point Solutions, added, "This acquisition represents a strong strategic fit and exciting opportunity to extend our impact in the defense contracting staffing market with a partner who shares our values and vision." Alex Schildt, President of ClearanceJobs, noted, "Point Solutions is a strategic extension of the ClearanceJobs platform, strengthening our long‑term growth opportunity and expanding our service offering without changing the best‑in‑class service our clients have come to love from ClearanceJobs.",
The deal also positions DHI to capitalize on a competitive advantage: Point Solutions’ Top Secret clearance and its established relationships with defense contractors. By integrating these capabilities, DHI can bid on federal contracts and offer staffing solutions for security‑cleared positions, expanding its addressable market beyond job postings and subscriptions. The acquisition is expected to generate synergies through shared technology platforms, cross‑selling to existing ClearanceJobs customers, and leveraging Point Solutions’ client base to accelerate revenue growth.
