NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2015

(1) Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation

Our accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2015. For further information refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our 2014 Form 10-K.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates affecting the financial statements include accruals for contract disallowance reserves, recoverability of goodwill and intangible assets and earn-out obligations.

We have made the following additions to our significant accounting policies as a result of our Aviation Acquisition in January 2015 (see Note 2):

Revenues

Our Aviation Group revenues are recognized upon the shipment or delivery of products to customers based on when title transfers to the customer. Sales returns and allowances are not significant.

Inventories

Our Aviation Group inventories are stated at lower of cost or market. Our Aviation Group inventories primarily consist of corporate and regional jet aircraft engines and jet aircraft engine accessories and parts. Cost for purchased engines and parts is determined by the specific identification method. Included in inventory are related purchasing, overhaul labor, storage, and handling costs. We also purchase aircraft engines for disassembly to individual parts and components.

(2) Acquisition

On January 28, 2015, we acquired four businesses that specialize in maintenance, repair and overhaul ("MRO") services and parts supply for corporate and regional jet aircraft engines and jet aircraft engine accessories. The businesses acquired include Air Parts & Supply Co., Kansas Aviation of Independence, L.L.C., Prime Turbines LLC (including both U.S. and Germany-based operations), and CT Aerospace LLC (collectively, the "Aviation Acquisition"). These four businesses are operating as a combined group managed by our recently formed wholly owned subsidiary VSE Aviation, Inc ("VAI"). The Aviation Acquisition provides diversification by adding more service offerings and broadening our client base.

The initial purchase consideration paid at closing for the Aviation Acquisition was approximately $189 million (subject to adjustment). We may also be required under an earn-out obligation to make additional purchase price payments of up to $40 million if the Aviation Acquisition meets certain financial targets during the first two post-closing years. An additional $5 million purchase price consideration will be payable if certain of the acquired businesses surpass certain financial targets during any 12 consecutive month period in 2014 and 2015. Of the payment made at closing, $18 million was deposited into an escrow account to secure the sellers' indemnification obligations (the "Indemnification Amount"). Any remaining Indemnification Amount at the end of the indemnification period not encumbered as a result of any indemnification claims will be distributed to the sellers. VAI's results of operations are included in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements beginning on the acquisition date of January 28, 2015.

June 30, 2015

VAI had revenues of approximately $54.7 million and operating income of approximately $4.7 million from the acquisition date through June 30, 2015.

We are in the process of finalizing our valuation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The fair values assigned to our earn-out obligation and intangible assets acquired were based on preliminary estimates, assumptions, and other information compiled by management, including independent valuations that utilized established valuation techniques. Based on our preliminary valuation, the total estimated consideration of approximately $189 million, which included an estimated final cash and net working capital and other adjustments of approximately $5 million. Additional cash consideration of approximately $2.4 million due to the sellers based on the final cash and net working capital and other adjustments was recorded as additional goodwill and an accrued liability during June 2015. The $2.4 million was paid to the sellers in July 2015. The total estimated purchase price has been allocated to assets acquired (including identifiable intangible assets and goodwill) and liabilities assumed (including deferred taxes on identifiable intangible assets that are not deductible for income tax purposes), as follows (in thousands):

Description	Fair Value
Cash	$	686
Accounts receivable		11,104
Inventory		55,544
Prepaid expenses and other current assets		2,641
Property and equipment		11,461
Customer relationships		85,700
Trade name		7,500
Goodwill		92,332
Accounts payable		(8,688	)
Accrued expenses and other current liabilities		(4,446	)
Long-term deferred tax liability		(35,861	)
	$	217,973

Cash consideration	$	191,867
Acquisition date fair value of earn-out obligation		26,106
Total	$	217,973

The estimated value attributed to customer relationships is being amortized on a straight-line basis using weighted average useful lives of approximately 14 years. The estimated value attributed to trade name is being amortized on a straight-line basis over nine years. None of the value attributed to goodwill, customer relationships and trade name is deductible for income tax purposes. The amount of goodwill recorded for the Aviation Acquisition was approximately $92.3 million and reflects the strategic advantage of expanding our supply chain management and MRO capabilities through the addition of new service offerings to new markets.

We incurred approximately $135 thousand and $413 thousand of acquisition-related expenses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

The following pro forma results are prepared for comparative purposes only and do not necessarily reflect the results that would have occurred had the Aviation Acquisition which occurred on January 28, 2015, occurred at the beginning of the periods presented or the results that may occur in the future. The following unaudited pro forma results of operations assume the Aviation Acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2014 (in thousands except per share amounts):

	Six Months ended June 30,

(3) Debt

We have a loan agreement with a group of banks. In January 2015, we amended and restated the loan agreement to fund the Aviation Acquisition, provide working capital for our continuing operations, and retire our existing debt. Both the former and the amended and restated loan agreements are comprised of a term loan facility and a revolving loan facility. The revolving loan facility provides for revolving loans and letters of credit. The amended and restated loan agreement expires in January 2020. Financing costs associated with the inception of the amended and restated loan agreement of approximately $2.7 million were capitalized and are being amortized over the five-year life of the loan.

The term loan requires quarterly installment payments. Our scheduled term loan payments after June 30, 2015 are $7.5 million in 2015, $17.8 million in 2016, $21.6 million in 2017, $28.1 million in 2018, $30 million in 2019, and $41.3 million after 2019. The amount of term loan borrowings outstanding as of June 30, 2015 was $146.3 million.

The maximum amount of credit available to us from the banking group for revolving loans and letters of credit as of June 30, 2015 was $150 million. We may borrow and repay the revolving loan borrowings as our cash flows require or permit. We pay an unused commitment fee and fees on letters of credit that are issued. We had approximately $97 million in revolving loan amounts outstanding and no letters of credit outstanding as of June 30, 2015. We had approximately $23.6 million in revolving loan amounts outstanding and no letters of credit outstanding as of December 31, 2014.

Under the amended and restated loan agreement we may elect to increase the maximum availability of the term loan facility, the revolving loan facility, or both facilities up to an aggregate additional amount of $75 million.

Total bank loan borrowed funds outstanding as of June 30, 2015, including term loan borrowings and revolving loan borrowings, were approximately $243.2 million. Total bank loan borrowed funds outstanding as of December 31, 2014 were $48.6 million. The fair value of outstanding debt as of June 30, 2015 under our bank loan facilities approximates its carrying value using Level 2 inputs based on market data on companies with a corporate rating similar to ours that have recently priced credit facilities.

We pay interest on the term loan borrowings and revolving loan borrowings at LIBOR plus a base margin or at a base rate (typically the prime rate) plus a base margin. As of June 30, 2015, the LIBOR base margin was 2.25% and the base rate base margin was 1.00%. The base margins increase or decrease in increments as our Total Funded Debt/EBITDA Ratio increases or decreases.

The terms of the amended and restated loan agreement require us to have interest rate hedges on a portion of the outstanding term loan for the first three years of the agreement. We executed interest rate hedges in February 2015 that complied with these terms. The amount of swapped debt outstanding as of June 30, 2015 is $125 million.

After taking into account the impact of hedging instruments, as of June 30, 2015, interest rates on portions of our outstanding debt ranged from 2.44% to 4.25%, and the effective interest rate on our aggregate outstanding debt was 2.97%.

Interest expense incurred on bank loan borrowings and interest rate hedges was approximately $1.9 million and $586 thousand for the quarters ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Interest expense incurred on bank loan borrowings and interest rate hedges was approximately $3.4 million and $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

The loan agreement contains collateral requirements to secure our loan agreement obligations, restrictive covenants, a limit on annual dividends, and other affirmative and negative covenants, conditions, and limitations. Restrictive covenants include a maximum Total Funded Debt/EBITDA Ratio and a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. We were in compliance with required ratios and other terms and conditions at June 30, 2015.

(4) Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share ("EPS") have been computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Shares issued during the period are weighted for the portion of the period that they were outstanding. Our calculation of diluted earnings per common share includes the dilutive effects for the assumed vesting of restricted stock awards.

(5) Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments

As of June 30, 2015, we had two uncompleted bonded projects and the aggregate bonded amount on these projects was approximately $4 million. Our bonded projects are the subject of claims and disputes involving the subcontractors associated with the projects. We expect the two remaining bonded projects to be completed in 2015.

Contingencies

We are one of the primary defendants in a multiple plaintiff wrongful death action in Hawaii related to a fireworks explosion that occurred in April 2011 at a facility operated by one of our subcontractors, which resulted in the death of five subcontractor employees. The litigation is expected to proceed to trial in late 2016. While the results of litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not anticipate that this litigation will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position.

On or about March 8, 2013, a lawsuit, Anchorage v. Integrated Concepts and Research Corporation, et al., was filed in the Superior Court for the State of Alaska at Anchorage by the Municipality of Anchorage, Alaska against our wholly owned subsidiary Integrated Concepts and Research Corporation ("ICRC") and two former subcontractors of ICRC. With respect to ICRC, the lawsuit asserts, among other things, breach of contract, professional negligence and negligence in respect of work and services ICRC rendered under the Port of Anchorage Intermodal Expansion Contract with the Maritime Administration, a federal agency with the United States Department of Transportation. In April 2013, ICRC removed the case to the United States District Court for the District of Alaska. ICRC's contract with the Maritime Administration expired on May 31, 2012. ICRC did not have a contract with the municipality of Anchorage. The litigation is expected to proceed to trial in late 2016 or early 2017. Currently, we cannot predict whether this litigation will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position.

On or about February 27, 2015, a lawsuit, Heritage Disposal and Storage v. VSE Corporation, was filed against VSE in the United States District Court for the District of Nebraska. The lawsuit asserts, among other things, breach of contract for services rendered related to the storage and manipulation of fireworks. The services relate to a prime contract that VSE maintains with the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. The complaint alleges that VSE has not paid Heritage the full charge for services rendered. Currently, we cannot predict whether this litigation will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position.

In addition to the above-referenced litigation, we have, in the normal course of business, certain claims against us and against other parties and we may be subject to various governmental investigations. In our opinion, the resolution of these claims and investigations will not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position. However, the results of any legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty.

(6) Business Segments and Customer Information

Business Segments

Management of our business operations is conducted under four reportable operating segments:

Supply Chain Management Group – Our Supply Chain Management Group supplies vehicle parts primarily through a Managed Inventory Program ("MIP") and direct sales to the United States Postal Service ("USPS") and to other clients.

Aviation Group - Our Aviation Group, formed in January 2015 when we completed the Aviation Acquisition, provides MRO services, parts supply and distribution, and supply chain solutions for business aviation and regional jet aircraft engines and engine accessories.

Federal Services Group - Our Federal Services Group, which represents the consolidation in the beginning of 2015 of our former International and Federal groups, provides engineering, industrial, logistics, foreign military sales, and legacy equipment sustainment services to the United States Department of Defense (" DoD") and other government agencies.

IT, Energy and Management Consulting Group – Our IT, Energy and Management Consulting Group provides technical and consulting services primarily to various DoD and civilian government agencies.

These segments operate under separate management teams and financial information is produced for each segment. The entities within each of the Federal Services Group and IT, Energy and Management Consulting Group reportable segments meet the aggregation of operating segments criteria as defined by the accounting standard for segment reporting. We evaluate segment performance based on consolidated revenues and operating income. Net sales of our business segments exclude intersegment sales as these activities are eliminated in consolidation.

(8) Fair Value Measurements

The accounting standard for fair value measurements defines fair value, and establishes a market-based framework or hierarchy for measuring fair value. The standard is applicable whenever assets and liabilities are measured at fair value.

The fair value hierarchy established in the standard prioritizes the inputs used in valuation techniques into three levels as follows:

Level 1 – Observable inputs – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than the quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities – includes quoted prices for similar instruments, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in inactive markets and amounts derived from valuation models where all significant inputs are observable in active markets; and

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs – includes amounts derived from valuation models where one or more significant inputs are unobservable and require us to develop relevant assumptions.

The following table summarizes the financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 and the level they fall within the fair value hierarchy (in thousands):

Amounts Recorded at Fair Value	Financial Statement Classification	Fair Value Hierarchy	Fair Value June 30, 2015	Fair Value December 31, 2014
Non-COLI assets held in Deferred Supplemental Compensation Plan	Other assets	Level 1	$265	$253
Interest rate swaps	Accrued expenses	Level 2	$289	-
Earn-out obligation - current	Current portion of earn-out obligations	Level 3	$23,807	$9,455
Earn-out obligation - long-term	Earn-out obligations	Level 3	$12,281	-

Changes in the fair value of the Non-COLI assets held in the deferred supplemental compensation plan, as well as changes in the related deferred compensation obligation, are recorded as selling, general and administrative expenses.

We account for our interest rate swap agreements under the provisions of ASC 815, and have determined that our swap agreements qualify as highly effective hedges. Accordingly, the fair value of the swap agreements, which is a liability of approximately $289 thousand at June 30, 2015, has been reported in accrued expenses. We had no interest rate swaps in place at December 31, 2014. The offset, net of an income tax effect of approximately $111 thousand is included in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the accompanying balance sheets as of June 30, 2015. The amounts paid and received on the swap agreements will be recorded in interest expense as yield adjustments in the period during which the related floating-rate interest is incurred. We determine the fair value of the swap agreements based on a valuation model using market data inputs.

We utilize the Monte Carlo valuation model for our Wheeler Bros., Inc. ("WBI") and Aviation Acquisition earn-out obligations. Significant unobservable inputs used to value the contingent consideration include projected earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and the discount rate. The model used a discount rate of 4.5% for the WBI earn-out as of June 30, 2015. If a significant increase or decrease in the discount rate occurred in isolation, the result could be a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement.

Our acquisition of WBI in 2011 required us to make additional payments to the sellers of up to a total of $40 million over a four-year post-acquisition period that ended June 30, 2015 if WBI achieves certain financial performance. WBI's sellers earned approximately $2.7 million, $219 thousand and $7.1 million based on WBI's financial performances for the earn-out years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Included in current portion of earn-out obligations on our June 30, 2015 balance sheet is approximately $10 million, which represents our best estimate of the present value of our earn-out obligation for the final WBI earn-out year, which ended June 30, 2015. Changes in the fair value of the earn-out obligations are recorded as contract costs in the period of change through settlement. The acquisition date fair value of the Aviation Acquisition earn-out obligation decreased approximately $8.9 million. There was no change in the fair value of the Aviation Acquisition earn-out obligation between the acquisition date and June 30, 2015 (see Note 2, Acquisition, for further discussion of the Aviation Acquisition earn-out obligation).

The following table provides a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balance of the earn-out obligations measured at fair value on a recurring basis that used significant unobservable inputs (Level 3).

	Current portion		Long-term portion		Total
Balance as of December 31, 2014	$	9,455	$	-	$	9,455
Fair value adjustment included in earnings		527		-		527
Additional earn-out obligation		13,825		12,281		26,106
Balance as of June 30, 2015	$	23,807	$	12,281	$	36,008

(9) Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The ASU is based on the principle that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to fulfill a contract. The effective date of the ASU was recently deferred for one year to the interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted as of the original effective date – interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2016. We currently are assessing the impact that this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

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

Executive Overview

We are a diversified services company that assists our clients in sustaining, extending the service life, and improving the performance of their transportation, equipment, and other assets and systems. We provide sustainment services for legacy systems and equipment and professional and technical services to the United States Government (the "government"), including the United States Postal Service ("USPS"), the United States Department of Defense ("DoD"), other federal civilian agencies, commercial customers, and to other customers. Our largest customers are the USPS and the DoD. Our operations include supply chain management solutions and parts supply for vehicle fleets; maintenance, repair, and overhaul ("MRO") services and parts supply for aviation clients; vehicle and equipment maintenance and refurbishment; logistics; engineering; energy and environmental services; IT and health care IT solutions; and consulting services.

Acquisition

In January 2015, we acquired four businesses that specialize in maintenance, repair and overhaul ("MRO") services and parts supply for general aviation jet aircraft engines and jet aircraft engine accessories (the "Aviation Acquisition"). The businesses acquired include Air Parts & Supply Co., Kansas Aviation of Independence, L.L.C., Prime Turbines LLC, and CT Aerospace LLC. These four businesses operate as a combined group managed by our wholly owned subsidiary VSE Aviation, Inc., which retained certain key management members of the former ownership group.

Organization and Segments

Our operations are conducted within four reportable segments aligned with our management groups: 1) Supply Chain Management; 2) Aviation; 3) Federal Services; and 4) IT, Energy and Management Consulting.

Supply Chain Management Group – Our Supply Chain Management Group provides sourcing, acquisition, scheduling, transportation, shipping, logistics, data management, and other services to assist our clients with supply chain management efforts. This group consists of our wholly owned subsidiary Wheeler Bros., Inc. ("WBI"). The primary revenue source for this group is WBI's USPS Managed Inventory Program ("MIP") that supplies vehicle parts and mission critical supply chain support for the USPS truck fleet. Other current work efforts include managed inventory services and parts sales to support commercial client truck fleets, parts sales to DoD, and other projects to support the USPS.

Aviation Group – Our Aviation Group provides MRO services, parts supply and distribution, and supply chain solutions for general aviation jet aircraft engines and jet aircraft engine accessories. This group consists of our aviation businesses acquired in January 2015 (the "Aviation Acquisition"). These businesses have a diversified client base serving corporate and private aircraft owners, regional airlines, aviation manufacturers, other aviation MRO providers, cargo transporters, and agricultural clients.

Federal Services Group - Our Federal Services Group provides foreign military sales services, refurbishment services to extend and enhance the life of existing vehicles and equipment, fleet-wide ship and aircraft support, aircraft sustainment and maintenance, and other technical, management, engineering, logistics, maintenance, configuration management, prototyping, technology, and field support services to the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps, U.S. Army and Army Reserve, U.S. Air Force, and other customers. Significant work efforts for this group include assistance to the U.S. Navy in executing its Foreign Military Sales ("FMS") Program for surface ships sold, leased or granted to foreign countries, our U. S. Army Reserve vehicle refurbishment program, various vehicle and equipment maintenance and sustainment programs for U. S. Army commands, and various task orders under the U.S. Air Force Contract Field Teams ("CFT") Program. The Federal Services Group represents the consolidation in the beginning of 2015 of our former International and Federal groups.

IT, Energy and Management Consulting Group – Our IT, Energy and Management Consulting Group provides technical and consulting services primarily to various DoD and federal civilian agencies, including the United States Departments of Energy, Homeland Security, Commerce, Treasury, and Interior; the Social Security Administration; the National Institutes of Health; customers in the military health system; and other government agencies and commercial clients. This group consists of our wholly owned subsidiaries Energetics Incorporated ("Energetics") and Akimeka, LLC ("Akimeka"). Energetics provides technical, policy, business, and management support in areas of energy modernization, clean and efficient energy, climate change mitigation, infrastructure protection, and measurement technology. Akimeka offers solutions in fields that include medical logistics, medical command and control, e-health, information assurance, public safety, enterprise architecture development, business continuity, program and portfolio management, network IT services, cloud managed services, systems design and integration, quality assurance services, and product and process improvement services.

Management Outlook

We have taken active measures in recent years to grow and enhance the quality of our revenues. Through acquisitions and strategic marketing initiatives, we have added new clients and revenue streams to replace the loss of business in our federal contracting operations. In doing so, we have focused on reducing our reliance on federal government budgets, increasing our operating margins, and creating opportunities for growth. We have evolved from a traditional federal government services contractor to a more diversified company with a broader client base, wider range of service offerings, and more profitable operating outlook. Today we have a balanced business enterprise supported by three primary components: 1) supply chain management solutions to support ground transportation clients; 2) MRO and parts supply and distribution services to support air transportation clients; and 3) contracted services to sustain and improve the performance of transportation, equipment, and other assets and systems and for professional and technical support primarily for federal government clients.

Our Supply Chain Management Group continues to be the strongest contributor to our operating results. We are pleased with this group's growth in both new and existing markets and service offerings. WBI's vehicle parts supply and inventory management support for the USPS truck fleet, and support to the USPS in adapting its fleet for greater package delivery demand, are the primary drivers of this group's growth and successful results. The USPS is a key client for which our mission critical supply chain support will continue to be an essential element in sustaining its aging fleet as this client embarks on a lengthy transition to a new replacement fleet. We are confident that our years of service to and knowledge of this client's needs positions us well to participate on an industry team in the prospective competition to provide the next generation USPS delivery vehicles. Independent of that outcome, we anticipate servicing this eventual replacement fleet in the same manner we serve the existing fleet. We also are seeing successful results from marketing WBI's managed inventory competency to commercial clients operating large vehicle fleets, and increased sales of vehicle parts to the DoD. We believe the potential exists to continue revenue growth for this group in the near future.

The integration of the four aviation businesses constituting our Aviation Group managed by our wholly owned subsidiary VSE Aviation, Inc. ("VAI") is proceeding well and operating results are meeting our expectations. The Aviation Group has provided us with a wide range of new clients and we are seeking to extend these new service offerings to our traditional U.S. and international military client base. Our Aviation Group has become a valuable part of our strategy to expand our markets for sustainment services while diversifying, stabilizing, and strengthening the quality of our revenue base and decreasing our reliance on our traditional military markets.

Our DoD and other federal civilian agency revenues from our Federal Services and IT, Energy, and Management Consulting groups have experienced declines in recent years, including 2015, due to decreases in government spending for certain programs and services and circumstances related to some of our specific programs. Our U.S. Navy FMS Program revenues for the past few years have been adversely affected by congressional delays in passing legislation required for the transfer of naval vessels to allied navies and by international events. Our vehicle and equipment refurbishment work for the U.S. Army Reserve has been adversely affected by DoD and Department of the Army budget reductions and changes to contractual coverage that have adversely affected the flow of work on this program. Substantially all of our work as the prime contractor for the U.S. Department of Treasury Executive Office for Asset Forfeiture general property program was completed as of March 2014. While these circumstances will again likely cause results to be lower for 2015 than the prior year, revenue levels have stabilized over the past few quarters. Legislation was passed in December 2014 allowing the transfer of certain vessels to selected foreign nations, which is expected to provide us with future FMS Program revenue increases. In addition, we have seen an increase in contract awards, including our recently announced award to provide logistics support services to the Fort Benning Logistics Readiness Center.

Through our work with foreign client countries, we have developed strong international business relationships through which we are marketing our services to international clients.

Bookings and Funded Backlog

Revenues for federal government contract work performed by our Federal Services and IT, Energy and Management Consulting groups depend on contract funding ("bookings"), and bookings generally occur when contract funding documentation is received. Funded contract backlog is an indicator of potential future revenue for these groups. While bookings and funded contract backlog generally result in revenue, occasionally we will have funded contract backlog that expires or is de-obligated upon contract completion and does not generate revenue.

Bookings for our Supply Chain Management and Aviation groups occur at the time of sale. Accordingly, these groups do not generally have funded contract backlog and such a backlog is not an indicator of their potential future revenues. Due to the proportion of total revenues generated by our Supply Chain Management and Aviation groups, we include only our Federal Services and IT, Energy and Management Consulting groups in our disclosure relative to bookings and funded contract backlog.

A summary of our bookings and revenues for our Federal Services and IT, Energy and Management Consulting groups for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, and funded contract backlog for these groups as of June 30, 2015 and 2014 is as follows:

These expenses include legal costs associated with contract protests, acquisitions, and other matters. Costs related to the acquisition of our aviation businesses were approximately $413 thousand for the first six months of 2015.

Our operating income increased approximately $793 thousand or 7% for the second quarter of 2015, and approximately $120 thousand or 1% for the first six months of 2015, as compared to the same periods of 2014. Operating income from our Supply Chain Management Group increased and the addition of our Aviation Group provided increased operating income in 2015. Our Federal Services Group had operating losses for the second quarter and first six months of 2015 and operating income for the same periods of 2014. Operating income from our and IT, Energy and Management Consulting Group decreased compared to the same periods of 2014.

Changes in revenues, costs and expenses, and income are further discussed in the summaries of our segment results that follow.

Interest expense increased approximately $1.3 million for the second quarter of 2015, and approximately $2.3 million for the first six months of 2015, as compared to the same periods of 2014 due to an increase in our level of bank borrowing resulting from our Aviation Acquisition in 2015. Interest expense also includes interest associated with capitalized construction costs related to our executive and administrative headquarters facility lease. The amount of interest expense associated with this lease for the first six months of 2015 was approximately $813 thousand, as compared to $841 thousand for the same period of 2014.

Our effective income tax rate was 39.3% for the first six months of 2015 as compared to 38.2% for the same period of 2014. Our tax rate is affected by discrete items that may occur in any given year, but may not be consistent from year to year. In addition to state income taxes, certain tax credits and other items can impact the difference between our statutory U.S. Federal income tax rate of 35% and our effective tax rate. The structure of the Aviation Acquisition resulted in approximately $900 thousand of transaction costs that will not be deducted for tax purposes and as a result our effective tax rate in 2015 has increased by 0.8%.

Profit percentage		18.1	%		18.2	%		18.0	%		18.7	%

Revenues for our Supply Chain Management Group increased approximately $5.6 million or 13% for the second quarter of 2015, as compared to the same period of 2014. Revenues increased approximately $11.2 million or 13% for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the same period for the prior year. The revenue increases resulted primarily from an increase in WBI's USPS MIP revenues of approximately $7.7 million for the six months. Contract costs increased by approximately $4.6 million or 13% for the quarter and approximately $9.6 million or 14% for the six months, primarily due to the increase in USPS MIP revenues.

Operating income increased by approximately $984 thousand or 13% for the quarter and approximately $1.5 million or 9% for the six months, primarily due to the increase in USPS MIP revenue.

Operating income was reduced by certain non-recurring research and development costs for 2015, and reduced by an increase to an accrued earn-out obligation associated with our acquisition of WBI for 2015 and 2014. The non-recurring research and development costs reduced 2015 operating income by approximately $345 thousand for the second quarter and approximately $824 thousand for the six months. The increase to the accrued earn-out obligation reduced 2015 operating income by approximately $217 thousand for the second quarter and $527 thousand for the six months. Earn-out related 2014 operating income reductions were approximately $613 thousand for the second quarter and approximately $787 thousand for the six months. The earn-out period related to our WBI acquisition ended at June 30, 2015, finalizing the earn-out obligation amount. Consequently, the value of this obligation will not be subject to future adjustments.

Expense for amortization of intangible assets was approximately $1.7 million for the second quarter and $2.9 million for the six months. Allocated corporate costs were approximately $1.2 million for the second quarter and approximately $2.1 million for the six months.

Federal Services Group Results

Profit percentage		(0.9	%)		3.3	%		(0.8	%)		3.9	%

Revenues for our Federal Services Group decreased approximately $12.2 million or 24% for the second quarter of 2015 and decreased approximately $37.7 million or 33% for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the same periods for the prior year. Contract costs decreased approximately $10.3 million or 21%, for the second quarter of 2015, and decreased approximately $32.9 million, or 30%, for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the same periods for the prior year.

The second quarter revenue decrease resulted primarily from a decrease of approximately $6.4 million associated with a reduction in our Army Reserve vehicle refurbishment work, and a decrease of approximately $4 million associated with a reduction in our FMS Program services. The six month revenue decrease resulted primarily from a decrease of approximately $12.7 million associated with a reduction in our Army Reserve vehicle refurbishment work, a decrease of approximately $9.4 million associated with a reduction in our FMS Program services, a decrease of approximately $8.9 million associated with the completion of our U.S. Treasury Seized Assets Program in March 2014, and a nonrecurring military parts order of approximately $8 million in 2014. The decrease in contract costs is attributable to the lower level of work associated with our revenue decline.

This group had operating losses of approximately $356 thousand for the second quarter of 2015 and approximately $623 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2105, as compared to operating income of approximately $1.6 million and $4.4 million for the same periods of 2014. Operating income and profit percentage decreases resulted primarily from the decrease in revenues and to certain facility and infrastructure costs that could not be reduced as rapidly as the decline in the revenues that these costs supported. We have reduced costs in this group and are continuing our efforts to achieve balance between revenue levels and the supporting cost structure.

Profit percentage		10.9	%		11.7	%		9.8	%		10.5	%

Revenues for our IT, Energy and Management Consulting Group decreased approximately $2.1 million or 13% for the second quarter of 2015, and decreased approximately $3.6 million or 12% for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the same periods for the prior year. Contract costs decreased approximately $1.8 million or 13% for the second quarter of 2015 and decreased approximately $3.1 million or 11% for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to the same period of 2014. The revenue and contract cost decreases resulted primarily from a reduction in services performed due to contract expirations and a decline in services ordered by clients on continuing contracts.

Operating income decreased by approximately $344 thousand or 19% for the second quarter, and decreased approximately $582 thousand or 18% for the six months. Operating income and profit percentage decreases resulted primarily from the decrease in revenue and lower profit margins associated with new contracts that replaced predecessor contracts.

Financial Condition

There has been no material adverse change in our financial condition in the first six months of 2015. Our capital structure has changed as a result of our Aviation Acquisition and associated bank financing. Our bank debt increased by approximately $195 million during this period. Changes to asset and liability accounts were due primarily to our earnings, our level of business activity, the timing of inventory purchases, contract delivery schedules, subcontractor and vendor payments required to perform our contract work, the timing of associated billings to and collections from our customers, and the Aviation Acquisition.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows

Cash and cash equivalents increased approximately $181 thousand during the first six months of 2015.

Cash provided by operating activities decreased approximately $22 million in the first six months of 2015 as compared to the first six months of 2014. The change is primarily attributable to a decrease of approximately $23 million due to changes in the levels of operating assets and liabilities, a decrease of approximately $620 thousand in cash provided by net income, and an increase of approximately $2 million in non-cash operating activities.

Our inventories and accounts receivable comprise a significant amount of our assets, and our accounts payable comprise a significant amount of our operating liabilities. Cash used related to increases in inventory was approximately $8.8 million and cash used related to increases in accounts receivable was approximately $6.2 million for 2015. Inventory levels and accounts payable may fluctuate depending on the timing and amounts of inventory purchases. A significant portion of our accounts receivable and accounts payable result from the use of subcontractors to perform work on our contracts and from the purchase of materials to fulfill our contract obligations. Accordingly, our levels of accounts receivable and accounts payable may fluctuate depending on the timing of services ordered and products sold, government funding delays, the timing of billings received from subcontractors and materials vendors, and the timing of payments received for services. Such timing differences have the potential to cause significant increases and decreases in our inventory, accounts receivable, and accounts payable in short time periods, and accordingly, can cause increases or decreases in our cash provided by operations.

Cash used in investing activities increased approximately $192 million in the first six months of 2015 as compared to the first six months of 2014. Cash used in investing activities for 2015 included approximately $189 million for the Aviation Acquisition.

Cash provided by financing activities was approximately $190 million in the first six months of 2015 as compared to cash used in financing activities of approximately $24 million in the first six months of 2014. This difference was primarily due to bank borrowing to finance our Aviation Acquisition in 2015.

We used approximately $1 million in cash to pay dividends of $0.20 per share during the first six months of 2015. Pursuant to our bank loan agreement, our payment of cash dividends is subject to annual rate restrictions. We have paid cash dividends each year since 1973 and have increased our dividend each year since 2004.

Liquidity

Our internal sources of liquidity are primarily from operating activities, specifically from changes in our level of revenues and associated inventory, accounts receivable, and accounts payable, and from profitability. Significant increases or decreases in revenues and inventory, accounts receivable, and accounts payable can impact our liquidity. Our inventory and accounts payable levels can be affected by the timing of large opportunistic inventory purchases. Our accounts receivable and accounts payable levels can be affected by changes in the level of contract work we perform, by the timing of large materials purchases and subcontractor efforts used in our contracts, and by delays in the award of contractual coverage and funding and payments. Government funding delays can cause delays in our ability to invoice for revenues earned, presenting a potential negative impact on our days sales outstanding.

We also purchase property and equipment and invest in expansion, improvement, and maintenance of our operational and administrative facilities. From time to time, we may also invest in the acquisition of other companies. Our Aviation Acquisition in January 2015 required a significant use of our cash.

Our external financing consists of an amended loan agreement with a bank group that provides for a term loan, revolving loans, and letters of credit. The amended agreement was put in place in January 2015 concurrent with our Aviation Acquisition, with a termination date of January 2020.

The term loan requires quarterly installment payments. Our scheduled term loan payments after June 30, 2015 are $7.5 million in 2015, $17.8 million in 2016, $21.6 million in 2017, $28.1 in 2018, $30 million in 2019, and $41.3 million in 2020. The amount of our term loan borrowings outstanding as of June 30, 2015 was $146.3 million.

The maximum amount of credit available to us from the banking group for revolving loans and letters of credit as of June 30, 2015 was $150 million. We may borrow and repay the revolving loan borrowings as our cash flows require or permit. We pay an unused commitment fee and fees on letters of credit that are issued. We had approximately $97 million in revolving loan amounts outstanding and no letters of credit outstanding as of June 30, 2015. The timing of certain payments made and collections received associated with our inventory, subcontractor, and materials requirements and other operating expenses can cause fluctuations in our outstanding revolving loan amounts. Delays in government funding of our work performed can also cause additional borrowing requirements.

We pay interest on the term loan borrowings and revolving loan borrowings at LIBOR plus a base margin or at a base rate (typically the prime rate) plus a base margin. As of June 30, 2015, the LIBOR base margin was 2.25% and the base rate base margin was 1.0%. The base margins increase or decrease in steps as our Total Funded Debt/EBITDA Ratio increases or decreases.

The amended loan agreement requires us to have interest rate hedges on a portion of the outstanding term loan for the first three years of the agreement. We executed such compliant interest rate hedges in February 2015. After taking into account the impact of hedging instruments, as of June 30, 2015, interest rates on portions of our outstanding debt ranged from 2.44% to 4.25%, and the effective interest rate on our aggregate outstanding debt was 2.97%.

Table of Contents

The amended loan agreement contains collateral requirements to secure our loan agreement obligations, restrictive covenants, a limit on annual dividends, and other affirmative and negative covenants, conditions and limitations. Restrictive covenants include a maximum Total Funded Debt/EBITDA Ratio, which decreases over time, and a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. We were in compliance with the financial covenants and other terms and conditions at June 30, 2015.

	Current Maximum Ratio	Actual Ratio
Total Funded Debt/EBITDA Ratio	3.50 to 1	3.36 to 1

	Minimum Ratio	Actual Ratio
Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio	1.20 to 1	2.12 to 1

We currently do not use public debt security financing.

Inflation and Pricing

Most of our contracts provide for estimates of future labor costs to be escalated for any option periods, while the non-labor costs in our contracts are normally considered reimbursable at cost. Our property and equipment consists principally of computer systems equipment, furniture and fixtures, shop and warehouse equipment, and land, buildings and improvements. We do not expect the overall impact of inflation on replacement costs of our property and equipment to be material to our future results of operations or financial condition.

Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rates

Our bank loans provide available borrowing to us at variable interest rates. Accordingly, future interest rate changes could potentially put us at risk for a material adverse impact on future earnings and cash flows. To mitigate the risks associated with future interest rate movements we have employed interest rate hedges to fix the rate on a portion of our outstanding borrowings for various periods of time. The resulting fixed rates on this portion of our debt are higher than the variable rates and have increased our net effective rate, but have given us protection us against interest rate increases.

In February 2015, we entered into a LIBOR based interest rate swap on our term loan for a term of four years with a notional amount of $100 million. The swap amount on our term loan decreases in increments on an annual basis. With the term loan swap in place, we pay an effective rate of 1.129% plus our base margin. Also in February 2015, we entered into a LIBOR based interest rate swap on our revolving loan for a term of three years with a notional amount of $25 million. With the revolving loan swap in place, we pay an effective rate of 0.95% plus our base margin.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, based on management's evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d - 15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")), our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

In connection with our Aviation Acquisition, certain areas of internal control over financial reporting changed. These areas are primarily related to integrating corporate functions at VSE that previously existed at the Aviation Acquisition such as entity level control and certain financial reporting controls. Certain control structure items remain in operation at the Aviation Acquisition, primarily related to the financial reporting, information technology, inventory management, human resources, processing and billing of revenues, and collection of those revenues. The control structure at the Aviation Acquisition have been modified to appropriately oversee and incorporate these activities into the overall control structure.

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our second quarter of fiscal 2015 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
