NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Note 1–Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation

Leidos Holdings, Inc. ("Leidos"), a Delaware corporation, is a holding company whose direct i 100%-owned subsidiary and principal operating company is Leidos, Inc. Leidos is a FORTUNE 500® technology, engineering, and science company that provides services and solutions in the defense, intelligence, civil and health markets, both domestically and internationally. Leidos' customers include the U.S. Department of Defense ("DoD"), the U.S. Intelligence Community, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, the Federal Aviation Administration, the Department of Veterans Affairs and many other U.S. civilian, state and local government agencies, foreign government agencies and commercial businesses. Unless indicated otherwise, references to "we," "us" and "our" refer collectively to Leidos Holdings, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. We operate in i three reportable segments: Defense Solutions, Civil and Health. Additionally, we separately present the unallocable costs associated with corporate functions as Corporate.

i We have a controlling interest in Mission Support Alliance, LLC ("MSA"), a joint venture with Centerra Group, LLC. We also have a controlling interest in Hanford Mission Integration Solutions, LLC ("HMIS"), the legal entity for the follow-on contract to MSA's contract and a joint venture with Centerra Group, LLC and Parsons Government Services, Inc. The financial results for MSA and HMIS are consolidated into our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements also include the balances of all voting interest entities in which Leidos has a controlling voting interest ("subsidiaries") and a variable interest entity ("VIE") in which Leidos is the primary beneficiary. The consolidated balances of the VIE are not material to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods presented. Intercompany accounts and transactions between consolidated companies have been eliminated in consolidation.

i The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements has been prepared in accordance with the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). Certain disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules. i The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingencies at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management evaluates these estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis, including those relating to estimated profitability of long-term contracts, indirect billing rates, allowances for doubtful accounts, inventories, right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, fair value and impairment of intangible assets and goodwill, income taxes, stock-based compensation expense and contingencies. These estimates have been prepared by management on the basis of the most current and best available information; however, actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Certain amounts in the prior year financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. We combined "Bad debt expense and recoveries" into "Selling, general and administrative expenses" on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. We have certain entities where the functional currency is not the U.S. dollar and have separately presented the effect of exchange rate changes on cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash held in foreign currencies as a separate line in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which consist of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation thereof. The results reported in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 14, 2023.

LEIDOS HOLDINGS, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Accounting Standards Updates Issued and Adopted

ASU 2020-04, ASU 2021-01 and ASU 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (ASC 848)

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2020-04, which provides companies with optional expedients and exceptions to ease the potential accounting burden associated with transitioning away from reference rates that are expected to be discontinued. This update provides optional expedients for applying accounting guidance to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of the reference rate reform. The amendments in this update are effective for all entities as of March 2020 and can be adopted using a prospective approach no later than December 31, 2022.

In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01 which amends the scope of ASU 2020-04. The amendments in this update are elective and provide optional relief for entities with hedge accounting and contract modifications affected by the transition from LIBOR through December 31, 2022. In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06 which extends the deadline for application of ASU 2021-01 through December 31, 2024. Under this relief, entities may continue to account for contract modifications as a continuation of the existing contract and the continuation of the hedge accounting arrangement. In the first half of fiscal 2023, we adopted certain practical expedients available under ASC 848. Our term loans are based on a Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) rate (see "Note 6–Debt"). Additionally, we modified our interest rate swap agreements to reference SOFR (see "Note 5–Derivative Instruments") in conformity with the relief available under ASC 848. The standard did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or earnings per share.

i Changes in Estimates on Contracts

Changes in estimates related to contracts accounted for using the cost-to-cost method of accounting are recognized in the period in which such changes are made for the inception-to-date effect of the changes, with the exception of contracts acquired through a business combination, where the adjustment is made for the period commencing from the date of acquisition.

i Changes in estimates on contracts were as follows:

i 0.09

i 0.03

i 0.22

The impact on diluted earnings per share ("EPS") attributable to Leidos common stockholders is calculated using the statutory tax rate.

Revenue Recognized from Prior Obligations

Revenue recognized from performance obligations satisfied in previous periods was $ i 13 million and $ i 14 million for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023, respectively, and $ i 6 million and $ i 38 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. The changes primarily related to revisions of variable consideration including award and incentive fees, and revisions to estimates at completion resulting from changes in contract scope, mitigation of contract risks or true-ups of contract estimates at the end of contract performance.

i Cash and Cash Equivalents

Our cash equivalents are primarily comprised of investments in several large institutional money market accounts, with original maturity of three months or less. At September 29, 2023, and December 30, 2022, $ i 64 million and $ i 158 million, respectively, of outstanding payments were included within "Cash and cash equivalents" and "Accounts payable and accrued liabilities" correspondingly on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

LEIDOS HOLDINGS, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

We have restricted cash balances, primarily representing advances from customers that are restricted for use on certain expenditures related to that customer's contract. Restricted cash balances are included as "Other current assets" in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Our restricted cash balances were $ i 189 million and $ i 167 million at September 29, 2023, and December 30, 2022, respectively.

Remaining Performance Obligations

Remaining performance obligations ("RPO") represent the expected value of exercised contracts, both funded and unfunded, less revenue recognized to date. RPO does not include unexercised option periods and future potential task orders expected to be awarded under indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity ("IDIQ") contracts, General Services Administration Schedule or other master agreement contract vehicles, with the exception of certain IDIQ contracts where task orders are not competitively awarded and separately priced but instead are used as a funding mechanism, and where there is a basis for estimating future revenues and funding on future anticipated task orders.

As of September 29, 2023, we had $ i 15.5 billion of RPO and expect to recognize approximately i 63% and i 79% over the next i 12 months and i 24 months, respectively, with the remainder to be recognized thereafter.

Disaggregation of Revenues

We disaggregate revenues by customer-type, contract-type and geographic location for each of our reportable segments.

Disaggregated revenues by customer-type were as follows:

Contract Assets and Liabilities

Performance obligations are satisfied either over time as work progresses or at a point in time. Firm-fixed-price contracts are typically billed to the customer using milestone payments while cost-reimbursable and time and materials contracts are typically billed to the customer on a monthly or bi-weekly basis as indicated by the negotiated billing terms and conditions of the contract. As a result, the timing of revenue recognition, customer billings and cash collections for each contract results in a net contract asset or liability at the end of each reporting period.

LEIDOS HOLDINGS, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Contract assets consist of unbilled receivables, which is the amount of revenue recognized that exceeds the amount billed to the customer. Unbilled receivables exclude amounts billable where the right to consideration is solely subject to the passage of time. Contract liabilities consist of deferred revenue, which represents cash advances received prior to performance for programs and billings in excess of revenue recognized.

On October 30, 2022 (the "Agreement Date"), we completed the acquisition of Cobham Special Mission for purchase consideration of $ i 298 million Australian dollars, net of $ i 10 million of Australian dollars acquired, or $ i 192 million United States dollars, net of $ i 6 million of cash acquired. Cobham Special Mission provides airborne border surveillance and search and rescue services to the Australian Federal Government.

As of September 29, 2023, we completed the determination of fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.The final goodwill recognized of $ i 22 million represents intellectual capital and the acquired assembled workforce, neither of which qualify for recognition as a separate intangible asset. i None of the goodwill recognized is tax deductible.

In connection with this acquisition, we acquired property, plant and equipment with a fair value of $ i 148 million at the Agreement Date. i The following table summarizes the fair value of intangible assets acquired at the Agreement Date and the related weighted average amortization period:

(3) Carrying amount includes accumulated impairment losses of $ i 369 million and $ i 716 million within the Health and Civil segments, respectively.

We evaluate qualitative factors that could cause us to believe the estimated fair value of each of our reporting units may be lower than the carrying value and trigger a quantitative assessment, including, but not limited to (i) macroeconomic conditions, (ii) industry and market considerations, (iii) our overall financial performance, including an analysis of our current and projected cash flows, revenues and earnings, (iv) a sustained decrease in share price and (v) other relevant entity-specific events including changes in management, strategy, partners or litigation.

Operations of the Security Enterprise Solutions (“SES”) reporting unit rely heavily on the sales and servicing of security and detection products, which continue to be negatively impacted due to delays in airline travel infrastructure projects as customer budgetary restraints recover from reduced travel activity post-pandemic. During the third quarter of fiscal 2023, the SES reporting unit refined its portfolio and made strategic business decisions to exit certain product offerings, as well as cease operations in certain countries in order to align the operations of the reporting unit with its strategic business plan. These decisions, along with the delays in airline travel infrastructure projects and higher than anticipated servicing costs, contributed to a significant reduction in the reporting unit’s forecasted revenue and cash flows.

As a result, we conducted an interim quantitative goodwill impairment analysis and our estimates led us to determine that the carrying value of the SES reporting unit exceeded its estimated fair value (see “Note 4–Fair Value Measurements”). Accordingly, we recognized a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $ i i 599 / million for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023, leaving $ i 303 million of goodwill at the SES reporting unit. The impairment was recorded within the Civil reportable segment in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. In the event that there are significant unfavorable changes to the forecasted cash flows, forecasted revenue, terminal growth rates or the cost of capital used in the fair value estimates, we may be required to record an additional impairment of goodwill at a future date.

(1) IPR&D assets are indefinite-lived at the acquisition date until placed into service, at which time such assets will be reclassified to a finite-lived amortizable intangible asset.

Our strategic decisions regarding SES’ product offerings and operating regions (see the goodwill discussion on page 13) caused certain technology and IPR&D intangible assets to be abandoned and the carrying values of certain program intangible assets to become unrecoverable. As a result, for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023, we recognized intangible asset impairment charges of $ i i 79 / million. The impairment was recorded to “Asset impairment charges” in the condensed consolidated statements of operations within the Civil reportable segment. In the event that we are required to make an additional impairment of goodwill at a future date for any of the reasons identified in our discussion of goodwill or if other events occur that negatively impact these intangible assets, we may also be required to record an additional impairment of intangible assets at that time.

Amortization expense was $ i 50 million and $ i 153 million for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023, respectively and $ i 57 million and $ i 173 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.

Program intangible assets are amortized over their respective estimated useful lives in proportion to the pattern of economic benefit based on expected future discounted cash flows. Backlog and finite-lived trade name intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Customer relationships and software and technology intangible assets are amortized either on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives or over their respective estimated useful lives in proportion to the pattern of economic benefit based on expected future discounted cash flows, as deemed appropriate.

Note 4–Fair Value Measurements

The accounting standard for fair value measurements establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets (Level 1); inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable, either directly or indirectly, or quoted prices that are not active (Level 2); and unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data (e.g., discounted cash flow and other similar pricing models), which requires us to develop our own market participant assumptions used in pricing the asset or liability (Level 3).

As of September 29, 2023, and December 30, 2022, our derivatives primarily consisted of the cash flow interest rate swaps on $ i 500 million and $ i 1.0 billion, respectively, of the variable rate senior unsecured term loan (see "Note 5–Derivative Instruments"). The fair value of the cash flow interest rate swaps is determined based on observed values for underlying interest rates on the one-month SOFR rate as of September 29, 2023 and the LIBOR yield curve as of December 30, 2022 (Level 2 inputs).

The carrying amounts of our financial instruments, other than derivatives, which include cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, are reasonable estimates of their related fair values.

As of September 29, 2023, and December 30, 2022, the fair value of debt was $ i 4.3 billion and $ i 4.6 billion, respectively, and the carrying amount was $ i 4.7 billion and $ i 4.9 billion, respectively (see "Note 6–Debt"). The fair value of long-term debt is determined based on current interest rates available for debt with terms and maturities similar to our existing debt arrangements (Level 2 inputs).

During the three months ended September 29, 2023, we recorded impairment charges of SES' goodwill (see "Note 3–Acquisitions, Divestitures, Goodwill and Intangible Assets"). The fair values of the assets and liabilities of the SES reporting unit were determined using a blended approach, including discounted cash flow models and market earnings multiples. The market approach estimates fair value based on profitability and valuation metrics for peer companies and applies a multiple to the reporting unit's operating performance. The income approach estimates fair value by discounting the reporting unit's estimated future cash flows using a weighted-average cost of capital reflecting current market conditions as well as the risk profile of the reporting unit. Future cash flows are based on estimates of economic and market assumptions made using the best judgment of management, including growth rates in revenue and margins, and future changes in tax rates and cash expenditures. Other significant assumptions and estimates include estimates of future capital expenditures, terminal value growth rates, and changes in future working capital requirements. The fair value of the SES reporting unit was determined using Level 3 inputs.

On October 30, 2022, non-financial instruments measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis were recorded in connection with the completed acquisitions of Cobham Special Mission. The fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were determined using Level 3 inputs.

Note 5–Derivative Instruments

We manage our risk to changes in interest rates through the use of derivative instruments. We do not hold derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. For variable rate borrowings, we use fixed interest rate swaps, effectively converting a portion of the variable interest rate payments to fixed interest rate payments. These swaps are designated as cash flow hedges.

The cash flows associated with the interest rate swaps are classified as operating activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

We have interest rate swap agreements to hedge the cash flows of $ i 500 million of the variable rate senior unsecured term loan (the "Variable Rate Loan"). These interest rate swap agreements have a maturity date of August 2025 and a fixed interest rate of i 2.96%. The objective of these instruments is to reduce variability in the forecasted interest payments of the Variable Rate Loan. During fiscal 2023, we modified our interest rate swap agreements to receive monthly variable interest payments based on the one-month SOFR rate, as compared to LIBOR, and will continue to pay interest at a fixed rate. We applied the guidance of ASC 848 which permits the continuation of hedge accounting for such modification.

The interest rate swap transactions are accounted for as cash flow hedges. The gain/loss on the swaps is reported as a component of other comprehensive (loss) income and is reclassified into earnings when the interest payments on the underlying hedged items impact earnings. A qualitative assessment of hedge effectiveness is performed on a quarterly basis, unless facts and circumstances indicate the hedge may no longer be highly effective.

Term Loans and Revolving Credit Facility

On March 10, 2023 (the “Closing Date”), we entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with certain financial institutions, which provided for a senior unsecured term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $ i 1.0 billion (the “Term Loan Facility”) and a $ i 1.0 billion senior unsecured revolving facility (the “Revolving Facility” and, together with the Term Loan Facility, the “Credit Facilities”). The Credit Facilities will mature in March 2028. The Revolving Facility permits i two additional i one-year extensions subject to lender consent. As of September 29, 2023, there were i no borrowings outstanding under the Revolving Facility.

The proceeds of the Term Loan Facility and cash on hand on the Closing Date were used to repay in full all indebtedness, terminate all commitments and discharge all guarantees existing in connection with the credit agreement related to the $ i 1.9 billion senior unsecured term loan facility and $ i 750 million senior unsecured revolving facility.

LEIDOS HOLDINGS, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate determined, at our option, based on either an alternate base rate or a Term SOFR rate with a i 0.10% per annum Term SOFR adjustment, plus, in each case, an applicable margin that varies depending on our credit rating. The applicable margin range for Term SOFR-denominated borrowings is from i 1.00% to i 1.50%. Based on our current ratings, the applicable margin for Term SOFR-denominated borrowings is i 1.25%. Principal payments are made quarterly on the Term Loan Facility beginning in March 2025, with the majority of the principal due at maturity. Interest on the Term Loan Facility for Term SOFR-denominated borrowings is payable on a periodic basis, which must be at least quarterly.

The financial covenants in the Credit Agreement require that we maintain, as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, a ratio of adjusted consolidated total debt to consolidated EBITDA of not more than i 3.75 to 1.00, subject to i two increases to i 4.50 to 1.00 for four fiscal quarters following a material acquisition, and a ratio of EBITDA to consolidated interest expense of not less than i 3.50 to 1.00.

On February 28, 2023, we issued and sold $ i 750 million aggregate principal amount of fixed-rate senior notes (the “Notes”) maturing in March 2033. The Notes are senior unsecured obligations issued by Leidos, Inc. and guaranteed by Leidos Holdings, Inc. The annual interest rate for the Notes is i 5.75% and is payable on a semi-annual basis. In connection with the issuance of the Notes, $ i 11 million of debt issuance costs and discount were recognized, which were recorded as an offset against the carrying value of debt. The proceeds from the Notes were used to repay all of the outstanding obligations in respect of principal, interest and fees on the $ i 500 million i 2.95% notes, due May 2023, the majority of which were retired on February 28, 2023. The remaining proceeds from the Notes were used to repay $ i 210 million of the outstanding balance on the $ i 1.9 billion senior unsecured term loan facility, due January 2025, and fund general corporate purposes.

We have a commercial paper program in which the Company may issue short-term unsecured commercial paper notes ("Commercial Paper Notes"). On May 26, 2023, we increased the size of the commercial paper program by $ i 250 million, or not to exceed $ i 1.0 billion. The proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes, including working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and share repurchases.

The Commercial Paper Notes are issued in minimum denominations of $ i 0.25 million and have maturities of up to i 397 days from the date of issuance. The Commercial Paper Notes either bear a stated or floating interest rate, if interest bearing, or will be sold at a discount from the face amount. As of September 29, 2023, we did i not have any Commercial Paper Notes outstanding.

The Credit Facilities, Commercial Paper Notes, senior unsecured term loans and notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed and contain certain customary restrictive covenants, including among other things, restrictions on our ability to create liens and enter into sale and leaseback transactions under certain circumstances. We were in compliance with all covenants as of September 29, 2023.

In fiscal 2022, the Company entered into a Master Lease Agreement whereby we agreed to lease i two aircraft from the time each aircraft is accepted through June 30, 2027.

Anti-dilutive stock-based awards are excluded from the weighted average number of shares outstanding used to compute diluted EPS. For the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023, and September 30, 2022, the total outstanding stock options and vesting stock awards that were anti-dilutive were i i 2 / million and i i 1 / million, respectively.

During the nine months ended September 29, 2023, we made open market repurchases of our common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $ i 25 million. All shares repurchased were immediately retired. i No share repurchases were made under the Company’s share repurchase program during the three months ended September 29, 2023.

Note 9–Income Taxes

For the three months ended September 29, 2023, the effective tax rate was ( i 2.1)% compared to i 25.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease to the effective tax rate was primarily due to the tax impacts of non-deductible goodwill impairments, see "Note 3–Acquisitions, Divestitures, Goodwill and Intangible Assets" for further information.

For the nine months ended September 29, 2023, the effective tax rate was i 123.7% compared to i 23.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase to the effective tax rate was primarily due to the tax impacts of non-deductible goodwill impairments, see "Note 3–Acquisitions, Divestitures, Goodwill and Intangible Assets" for further information.

Beginning in 2022, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (“TCJA”) eliminated the option to currently deduct certain research and development costs for tax purposes and requires taxpayers to capitalize and amortize research costs over five years. TCJA increased both our income taxes payable and net deferred tax assets since the beginning of 2022. For the nine months ended September 29, 2023, unrecognized tax benefits increased $ i 71 million with a corresponding increase to net deferred tax assets as a result of uncertain tax positions arising from capitalizing research and development costs. Future impacts of TCJA will depend on the amount of research and development costs the Company will incur, whether Congress modifies or repeals this provision and whether new guidance and interpretive rules are issued by the U.S. Treasury, among other factors.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

The income statement performance measures used to evaluate segment performance are revenues and operating (loss) income. As a result, "Interest expense, net," "Other income (expense), net" and "Income tax expense" as reported in the condensed consolidated statements of operations are not allocated to our segments. Under U.S. Government Cost Accounting Standards, indirect costs including depreciation expense are collected in indirect cost pools, which are then collectively allocated to the reportable segments based on a representative causal or beneficial relationship of the costs in the pool to the costs in the base. As such, depreciation expense is not separately disclosed on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Asset information by segment is not a key measure of performance used by the CODM.

Note 11–Commitments and Contingencies

VirnetX, Inc. ("VirnetX")

On April 10, 2018, a jury trial concluded in an additional patent infringement case brought by VirnetX against Apple, referred to as the Apple II case, in which the jury returned a verdict against Apple for infringement and awarded VirnetX damages in the amount of over $ i 502 million. On April 11, 2018, in a second phase of the Apple II trial, the jury found Apple's infringement to be willful. On August 30, 2018, the federal trial court in the Eastern District of Texas entered a final judgment and rulings on post-trial motions in the Apple II case. The court affirmed the jury’s verdict of over $ i 502 million and granted VirnetX’s motions for supplemental damages, a sunset royalty and royalty rate of $ i 1.20 per infringing device, along with pre-judgment and post-judgment interest and costs. The court denied VirnetX’s motions for enhanced damages, attorneys’ fees and an injunction. The court also denied Apple’s motions for judgment as a matter of law and for a new trial. An additional sum of over $ i 93 million for costs and pre-judgment interest was subsequently agreed upon pursuant to a court order, bringing the total award to VirnetX in the Apple II case to over $ i 595 million. Apple filed an appeal of the judgment in the Apple II case with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, and on November 22, 2019, the Federal Circuit affirmed in part, reversed in part and remanded the Apple II case back to the District Court. The Federal Circuit affirmed that Apple infringed i two of the patents at issue in the case, and ruled that Apple is precluded from making certain patent invalidity arguments. However, the Federal Circuit reversed the judgment that Apple infringed i two other patents at issue, vacated the prior damages awarded in the Apple II case, and remanded the Apple II case back to the District Court for further proceedings regarding damages. On April 23, 2020, the District Court ordered a new trial on damages in the Apple II case, which was delayed by the coronavirus pandemic and started on October 26, 2020. On October 30, 2020, the jury awarded VirnetX $ i 503 million in damages and specified a royalty rate of $ i 0.84 per infringing device. In January 2021, the District Court entered final judgment affirming the jury award and the parties separately agreed on additional costs and interest of over $ i 75 million, subject to Apple's appeal. On February 4, 2021, Apple filed a notice of appeal with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in the Apple II case.

Under our agreements with VirnetX, Leidos would receive i 25% of the proceeds obtained by VirnetX after reduction for attorneys' fees and costs. However, the verdict in the Apple II case remains subject to the ongoing and potential future proceedings and appeals. In addition, the patents at issue in these cases are subject to U.S. Patent and Trademark Office ("USPTO") post-grant inter partes review and/or reexamination proceedings and related appeals, which may result in all or part of these patents being invalidated or the claims of the patents being limited. On March 30, 2023, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit issued a ruling affirming prior decisions of the USPTO’s Patent Trial and Appeal Board finding certain claims of the patents at issue in the Apple II case to be unpatentable. On March 31, 2023, the Federal Circuit issued a decision vacating the District Court’s judgment in the Apple II case and remanding it back to the District Court with instructions to dismiss the case as moot. These Federal Circuit decisions remain subject to potential motions and/or appeals by VirnetX, including potentially seeking rehearing or certiorari review. On May 1, 2023, VirnetX filed a petition for panel rehearing on the Apple II litigation decision at the Federal Circuit, but this petition was denied by the Federal Circuit on June 27, 2023. On June 5, 2023, VirnetX filed a petition for panel rehearing on the Federal Circuit’s decision finding the patents at issue in the Apple II case to be unpatentable, but this petition was denied by the Federal Circuit on June 22, 2023. On September 20, 2023, VirnetX filed a petition for a writ of certiorari with the Supreme Court of the United States to review the Federal Circuit decisions.

Thus, no assurances can be given when or if we will receive any proceeds in connection with the Apple II case. In addition, if Leidos receives any proceeds, we are required to pay a royalty to the customer who paid for the development of the technology.

Government Investigations and Reviews

We are routinely subject to investigations and reviews relating to compliance with various laws and regulations with respect to our role as a contractor to federal, state and local government customers and in connection with performing services in countries outside of the United States. Adverse findings could have a material effect on our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows due to our reliance on government contracts.

Defense Contract Audit Agency

As of September 29, 2023, active indirect cost audits by the Defense Contract Audit Agency remain open for fiscal 2021 and subsequent fiscal years. Although we have recorded contract revenues based upon an estimate of costs that we believe will be approved upon final audit or review, we cannot predict the outcome of any ongoing or future audits or reviews and adjustments, and if future adjustments exceed estimates, our profitability may be adversely affected. As of September 29, 2023, we believe we have adequately reserved for potential adjustments from audits or reviews of contract costs.

Other Government Investigations and Reviews

Through its internal processes, the Company discovered, in late 2021, activities by its employees, third party representatives and subcontractors, raising concerns related to a portion of our business that conducts international operations. The Company is conducting an internal investigation, overseen by an independent committee of the Board of Directors, with the assistance of external legal counsel, to determine whether the identified conduct may have violated the Company’s Code of Conduct and potentially applicable laws, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act ("FCPA"). The Company has voluntarily self-reported this investigation to the Department of Justice and the Securities and Exchange Commission and is cooperating with both agencies. Because the investigation is ongoing, the Company cannot anticipate the timing, outcome or possible impact of the investigation, although violations of the FCPA and other applicable laws may result in criminal and civil sanctions, including monetary penalties, and reputational damage. In September 2022, the Company received a Federal Grand Jury Subpoena related to the criminal investigation by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of California, in conjunction with the U.S. Department of Justice’s Fraud Division. The subpoena requests documents relating to the conduct that is the subject of the Company’s internal investigation. The Company has responded to the subpoena. In February 2023, a former employee of the Company who was terminated at the outset of the investigation was indicted on wire fraud and other charges by a Federal Grand Jury in the U.S. District Court in the Southern District of California.

In August 2022, the Company received a Federal Grand Jury Subpoena in connection with a criminal investigation being conducted by the U.S. Department of Justice Antitrust Division. The subpoena requests that the Company produce a broad range of documents related to i three U.S. Government procurements associated with the Company’s Intelligence Group in 2021 and 2022. We are fully cooperating with the investigation, and we are conducting our own internal investigation with the assistance of outside counsel. It is not possible at this time to determine whether we will incur, or to reasonably estimate the amount of, any fines, penalties, or further liabilities in connection with the investigation pursuant to which the subpoena was issued.

As of September 29, 2023, we have outstanding letters of credit of $ i 60 million, principally related to performance guarantees on contracts and outstanding surety bonds with a notional amount of $ i 104 million, principally related to performance and subcontractor payment bonds on contracts. The value of the surety bonds may vary due to changes in the underlying project status and/or contractual modifications.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion and analysis of Leidos Holdings, Inc.'s ("Leidos") financial condition, results of operations, and quantitative and qualitative discussion about business environment and trends should be read in conjunction with Leidos' condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes.

The following discussion contains forward-looking statements, including statements regarding our intent, belief or current expectations with respect to, among other things, trends affecting our financial condition or results of operations, backlog, our industry, the impact of our merger and acquisition activity, government budgets and spending, our business contingency plans, interest rates and uncertainties in tax due to new tax legislation or other regulatory developments. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “will,” “expect,” “estimate,” “plan,” “potential,” “continue” or similar expressions. Such statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties and actual results may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. Some of these factors include, but are not limited to, the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as updated by the risk factor in this report under Part II, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" and as may be further updated in subsequent filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Due to such uncertainties and risks, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. We do not undertake any obligation to update these factors or to publicly announce the results of any changes to our forward-looking statements due to future events or developments.

Unless indicated otherwise, references in this report to "we," "us" and "our" refer collectively to Leidos and its consolidated subsidiaries.

We are a FORTUNE 500® technology, engineering, and science company that provides services and solutions in the defense, intelligence, civil and health markets, both domestically and internationally. We bring domain-specific capability and cross-market innovations to customers in each of these markets by leveraging five technical core competencies: digital modernization, cyber operations, mission software systems, integrated systems and mission operations. Our customers include the U.S. Department of Defense ("DoD"), the U.S. Intelligence Community, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, the Federal Aviation Administration, the Department of Veterans Affairs and many other U.S. civilian, state and local government agencies, foreign government agencies and commercial businesses. We operate in three reportable segments: Defense Solutions, Civil and Health. Additionally, we separately present the unallocable costs associated with corporate functions as Corporate.

Business Environment and Trends

U.S. Government Markets

During the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023, we generated approximately 87% and 86%, respectively, of total revenues from contracts with the U.S. government, as compared to 87% during both of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. Accordingly, our business performance is affected by the overall level of U.S. government spending, especially on national security, homeland security and intelligence, and the alignment of our service and product offerings and capabilities with current and future budget priorities of the U.S. government.

On September 30, 2023, Congress avoided a federal government shutdown by passing a continuing resolution ("CR") that provides government funding until November 17, 2023. The CR gives lawmakers more time to consider the 12 appropriations bills for government fiscal year (“GFY”) 2024 and organize new leadership of the House of Representatives. The House has passed the State and Foreign Operations, Defense, Military Construction and Homeland Security Appropriations bills. For GFY 2024, the total federal discretionary spending request is $1.59 trillion with $886 billion for defense spending and $703 billion for non-defense discretionary spending programs. The Senate is also working on a government funding bill that will provide aid to Ukraine since such funding was not included in the CR. Failure to pass the appropriations bills or another CR by November 17, 2023, will result in a partial or complete federal government shutdown.

LEIDOS HOLDINGS, INC.

International Markets

Sales to customers in international markets represented approximately 9% of total revenues for both the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023, as compared to 8% of total revenues for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. Our international customers include foreign governments and their agencies. Our international business increases our exposure to international markets and the associated international regulatory and geopolitical risks.

Changes in international trade policies, including higher tariffs on imported goods and materials, may increase our procurement costs of certain IT hardware used both on our contracts and for internal use. However, we expect to recover certain portions of these higher tariffs through our cost-plus contracts. While we evaluate the impact of higher tariffs, currently, we do not expect tariffs to have a significant impact to our business.

The increase in revenues for the three months ended September 29, 2023, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, was primarily attributable to programs wins, a net increase in volumes on certain programs and a $28 million increase in revenues related to our Cobham Special Mission acquisition made in the last quarter of fiscal 2022. The increase was partially offset by the completion of certain contracts.

The increase in revenues for the nine months ended September 29, 2023, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, was primarily attributable to a net increase in volumes on certain programs, programs wins, an increase in net write-ups on certain programs and a $86 million increase in revenues related to our Cobham Special Mission acquisition made in the last quarter of fiscal 2022. The increase was partially offset by the completion of certain contracts and a $29 million unfavorable impact from exchange rate movements.
