Booz Allen Stock Drops 5% After Employee Revealed as NSA Whistleblower
Booz Allen Hamilton is having a tough day
The contracting firm's stock dropped by as much as 5% in early trading Monday after its employee Edward Snowden revealed himself as the source of leaked information about the National Security Agency's surveillance programs. That marks the company's biggest intraday trading decline in more than four months, according to Bloomberg.
In an interview with The Guardian, Snowden said he had worked at the NSA for the past four years through various consulting firms, the most recent of which was Booz Allen, where he had been employed for three months
