What the notice says
A cost-plus-fixed-fee contract was competitively awarded to Computational Physics, Inc. for R&D efforts for development and application of new and existing techniques for Remote Sensing for one 12-month base period and four 12-month options. The base period contract value is $5,472,217.80. The contract total if all options are exercised is $28,725,017.15. The rationale for awarding a CPFF rather than fixed-price contract is due to the requirements not being defined enough for a fixed price contract.

Value counts new single-winner awards. "Shared" awards are multiple-award contracts that list every winner with the same total ceiling (same contract, or the same office, day and amount); that ceiling is not one company's win, so it is not added in. Contract modifications are not new awards and are not added in either (4 here). Revenue next to a ticker is the company's revenue over the latest 12 months in its SEC filings.
