Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Description of Business

Kyndryl Holdings, Inc. (“we”, “the Company” or “Kyndryl”) is a leading provider of mission-critical enterprise technology services, offering advisory, implementation and managed service capabilities to thousands of customers in more than 60 countries. As the world’s largest IT infrastructure services provider, the Company designs, builds, manages and modernizes the complex information systems that the world depends on every day.

Prior to November 3, 2021, the Company was wholly owned by International Business Machines Corporation (“IBM” or “former Parent”). In November 2021, our former Parent effected the spin-off (the “Separation,” the “Spin-off” or “spin”) of the infrastructure services unit of its Global Technology Services segment through the distribution of shares of Kyndryl’s common stock to IBM stockholders.

Basis of****Presentation

The accompanying condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Management believes the accompanying financial statements include all adjustments necessary to state fairly the Company’s financial position and its results of operations for all the periods presented. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025.

Within the financial statements and tables presented, certain columns and rows may not add due to the use of rounded numbers for disclosure purposes. Percentages presented are calculated from the underlying whole-dollar amounts.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying financial statements are presented on a consolidated basis. All significant transactions and intercompany accounts between Kyndryl entities were eliminated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts that are reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying disclosures. Estimates are used in determining the following, among others: revenue, costs to complete service contracts, income taxes, pension assumptions, valuation of assets including goodwill and intangible assets, the depreciable and amortizable lives of long-lived assets, loss contingencies, allowance for credit losses, and deferred transition costs. We prepared these estimates based on the most current and best available information, but actual results could differ materially from these estimates and assumptions.

The Company uses the estimated annual effective tax rate method in computing its interim tax provision in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The estimated annual effective tax rate is applied to the year-to-date ordinary income, exclusive of discrete items, to arrive at the reported interim tax provision.

NOTE 2. ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Recent Pronouncements

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09,Income Taxes (Topic 740) – Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which is intended to enhance the transparency and usefulness of income tax disclosures through improved reporting related to the rate reconciliation

and income taxes paid. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on the disclosures in its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03,Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which is intended to improve the usefulness of expense information contained in public entity income statements through the disaggregation of relevant expense captions in the notes to the financial statements. The guidance should be applied prospectively, effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on the disclosures in its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-03,Business Combinations (Topic 805) and Consolidation (Topic 810): Determining the Accounting Acquirer in the Acquisition of a Variable Interest Entity, which amends the guidance for determining the acquirer in certain transactions. The guidance should be applied prospectively, effective for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, with early adoption permitted. The Companyhas evaluated the impact of the guidance and does not expect it to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06,Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, which amends the criteria for capitalization of internal-use software costs. The guidance is effective for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027 and interim reporting periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company has evaluated the impact of the guidance and does not expect it to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3. REVENUE RECOGNITION

Disaggregation of Revenue

The Company views its segment results to be the best view of disaggregated revenue. Refer to Note 4 – Segments.

Remaining Performance Obligations

The remaining performance obligation (“RPO”) represents the aggregate amount of contractual deliverables yet to be recognized as revenue at the end of the reporting period. It is intended to be a statement of overall work under contract that has not yet been performed and does not include contracts for which the customer is not committed. The customer is not considered committed when it is able to terminate for convenience without payment of a substantive penalty. The RPO also includes estimates of variable consideration. RPO estimates are subject to change and are affected by several factors, including terminations, changes in the scope of contracts, periodic revalidations, adjustments for revenue that has not materialized and adjustments for currency.

At December 31, 2025, the aggregate amount of RPO related to customer contracts that are unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied was $33.6 billion. Approximately 57 percent of the amount is expected to be recognized as revenue in the nexttwo years, approximately 38 percent in the subsequent three years, and the balance thereafter.

During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2025, revenue was increased by $42 million and $39 million, respectively, and during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2024, revenue was increased by $22 million and $32 million, respectively, for performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in previous periods, mainly due to changes in estimates.

NOTE 4. SEGMENTS

Our reportable segments correspond to how the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), our chief executive officer, reviews performance and allocates resources. Ourfour reportable segments consist of the following:

United States: This reportable segment is comprised of Kyndryl’s operations in the United States.

Japan: This reportable segment is comprised of Kyndryl’s operations in Japan.

Principal Markets: This reportable segment represents the aggregation of our operations in Canada, France, Germany, India, Italy, Spain / Portugal, and the United Kingdom / Ireland.

Strategic Markets: This reportable segment is comprised of our operations in all other countries in which we operate.

The measure of segment operating performance used by Kyndryl’s CODM is adjusted EBITDA, which allows our CODM to evaluate operating results excluding certain items whose fluctuation from period to period do not necessarily correspond to changes in the operations of our business. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income excluding income taxes, interest expense, depreciation and amortization (excluding depreciation of right-of-use assets and amortization of capitalized contract costs), charges related to ceasing to use leased and owned fixed assets, charges related to lease terminations, transaction-related costs and benefits, pension expenses other than pension servicing costs and multi-employer plan costs, stock-based compensation expense, workforce rebalancing charges incurred prior to March 31, 2024, impairment expense, significant litigation costs and benefits, and currency impacts of highly inflationary countries. The CODM reviews revenue and adjusted EBITDA to assess performance and allocate resources to the segments. The Company does not allocate assets to the above reportable segments for our CODM’s review.

Our geographic markets frequently work together to sell and implement certain contracts. The resulting revenues and costs from these contracts may be apportioned among the participating geographic markets. The economic environment and its effects on the industries served by our geographic markets affect revenues and operating expenses within our geographic markets to differing degrees. Currency fluctuations also tend to affect our geographic markets differently, depending on the geographic concentrations and locations of their businesses.

NOTE 5. TAXES

For the three months ended December 31, 2025, the Company’s effective tax rate was 37.4%, compared to 16.7% for the three months ended December 31, 2024. For the nine months ended December 31, 2025, the Company’s effective tax rate was 35.7%, compared to 42.2% for the nine months ended December 31, 2024.

The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2025, and the nine months ended December 31, 2024, was higher than the Company’s statutory tax rate primarily due to taxes on foreign operations and valuation allowances recorded in certain jurisdictions against deferred tax assets that are not more likely than not to be realized. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2024 was lower than the Company’s statutory tax rate because the tax expense associated with the Company’s Securities Industry Services divestiture (see Note 8 – Acquisitions and Divestitures) was below the statutory rate.

In July 2025, the U.S. government enacted new tax legislation that, among other things, made permanent items such as 100% bonus depreciation on certain fixed assets, immediate expensing of domestic research costs and an increased business interest expense limitation. It also included modifications to several international tax provisions. The Company has recorded no material incremental tax expense or benefit related to the legislation.

NOTE 6. EARNINGS PER SHARE

NOTE 7. FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company classifies certain assets and liabilities based on the following fair value hierarchy:

●Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that can be accessed at the measurement date,
●Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly and
●Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The level of an asset or liability within the fair value hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The determination of fair value considers various factors including yield curves and time value underlying the financial instruments. For derivatives and debt securities, the Company uses a discounted cash flow analysis using discount rates commensurate with the duration of the instrument.

In determining the fair value of financial instruments, the Company considers certain market valuation adjustments to the “base valuations” using the methodologies described below for several parameters that market participants would consider in determining fair value:

●Counterparty credit risk adjustments are applied to financial instruments, taking into account the actual credit risk of a counterparty as observed in the credit default swap market to determine the true fair value of such an instrument.
●Credit risk adjustments are applied to reflect the Company’s own credit risk when valuing liabilities measured at fair value. The methodology is consistent with that applied in developing counterparty credit risk adjustments, but incorporates the Company’s credit risk as observed in the credit default swap market.

Certain non-financial assets such as property, plant and equipment, operating right-of-use assets, land, goodwill and intangible assets are recorded at fair value or at cost, as appropriate, in the period they are initially recognized, and such balances may be adjusted in subsequent periods if an event occurs or circumstances change that indicate that the asset may be impaired. The impairment models used for non-financial assets depend on the type of asset. The fair value measurements, in such instances, would be classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

We perform a qualitative assessment of asset impairments on a periodic basis and recognize an impairment if there are sufficient indicators that the fair value is less than carrying value. There wereno impairments of non-financial assets recognized for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value

The following table presents the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025:

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
​​Fair Value​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
​ · ​ · Hierarchy · ​ · At December 31, 2025 · ​ · At March 31, 2025

Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments:​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
Foreign exchange contracts​2​​9​​3​​6​​27​​2​​25
Total​​​$59​$102​$(43)​$45​$43​$2

The gross balances of derivative assets, including accrued interest, are contained within prepaid expenses and other current assets and other noncurrent assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The gross balances of derivative liabilities are contained within other accrued expenses and liabilities and other noncurrent liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company may enter into master netting agreements with certain counterparties that allow for netting of exposures. There wasno netting of derivative assets against liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025. The Company manages counterparty risk by seeking counterparties of high credit quality and by monitoring credit ratings, credit spreads and other relevant public information about its counterparties. The Company does not anticipate nonperformance by any of the counterparties.

Financial Assets and Liabilities Not Measured at Fair Value

Accounts receivable are financial assets with carrying values that approximate fair value. Accounts payable, other accrued expenses and short-term debt are financial liabilities with carrying values that approximate fair value. If measured at fair value in the consolidated financial statements, these financial instruments would be classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, except for short-term debt, which would be classified as Level 2.

The Company also has time deposits that have maturities of 90 days or less, and their carrying values approximate fair value. They are measured for impairment on a recurring basis by comparing their fair value with their amortized cost basis. There wereno impairments of financial assets recognized for any of the periods presented. The balances of these time deposits with maturities of 90 days or less contained within cash and cash equivalents in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025 were $572 million and $765 million, respectively. If measured at fair value in the consolidated financial statements, time deposits with maturities of 90 days or less would be categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

The fair value of our outstanding debt (excluding finance lease obligations) is based on various methodologies, including quoted prices in active markets for identical debt instruments, which is a Level 1 measurement, or calculated fair value using an expected present value technique that uses rates currently available to the Company for debt in active markets with similar terms and remaining maturities, which is a Level 2 measurement. See Note 10 – Borrowings for additional information. Our outstanding debt(excluding finance lease obligations) had a carrying value of $2.9 billion as of December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025, with an estimated fair value of$2.7 billion as of December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025.

Transfers of Financial Assets

The Company has entered into agreements with third-party financial institutions to sell certain financial assets (primarily trade receivables) without recourse. The Company has determined these are true sales. The carrying value of the financial asset sold is derecognized, and a net gain or loss on the sale is recognized, at the time of the transfer.

The net proceeds from these arrangements are reflected as cash provided by operating activities in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. Gross proceeds from receivables sold to third parties under this program were $629 million and $1.8 billion for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2025, respectively, and$760 million and$2.6 billion for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2024, respectively. The fees associated with the transfers of receivables were $2 million and$12 million for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2025, respectively, and$8 million and$28 million for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2024, respectively.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The following table summarizes the notional amounts of the Company’s outstanding derivatives:

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
​ · ​ · At December 31, 2025 · ​ · At March 31, 2025
(Dollars in millions) · ​ · Foreign Exchange Contracts · ​ ​ ​ · Cross-currency Swap Contracts · ​ ​ ​ · Total Notional Amount · ​ · Foreign Exchange Contracts · ​ ​ ​ · Cross-currency Swap Contracts · ​ ​ ​ · Total Notional Amount

Net investment hedges​​1,102​​500​​1,602​​1,485​​500​​1,985
Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments​$1,175​$—​$1,175​$1,148​$—​$1,148

The notional amounts of derivative instruments do not necessarily represent the amounts exchanged by the Company with third parties and are not necessarily a direct measure of the financial exposure.

Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments

Cash Flow Hedges

The Company has foreign exchange derivative financial instruments designated as cash flow hedges to manage the volatility of cash flows that relate to operating expenses and intercompany payments for royalties denominated in certain currencies. Changes in fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are recorded, net of applicable taxes, in other comprehensive income (“OCI”) and subsequently reclassified into the same income statement line item as the hedged exposure when the underlying hedged item is recognized in earnings. The cash flows associated with derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are reported in cash flows from operating activities in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

At December 31, 2025, the maximum remaining length of time over which the Company has hedged its exposure is approximatelyone year. At December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025, the weighted-average remaining maturity of these instruments was approximately 0.4 years and 0.5 years, respectively. At December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025, in connection with cash flow hedges of foreign currency transactions, the Company had unrealized gains of $5 million and losses of $1 million (each before taxes), respectively, in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”). The Company estimates that $5 million (before taxes) of deferred net gains on derivatives in AOCI at December 31, 2025 will be reclassified to net income within the next twelve months, providing an offsetting economic impact against the underlying anticipated transactions.

Net Investment Hedges

The Company has entered into and designated cross-currency interest rate swap contracts and currency forward contracts as net investment hedges to mitigate foreign exchange exposure related to net investments. Under the terms of the cross-currency swaps, the Company makes fixed-rate payments in foreign currencies and receives fixed-rate amounts in U.S. dollars, with the exchange of the underlying notional amounts at maturity whereby the Company will receive U.S. dollars and pay foreign currencies at exchange rates which are determined at contract inception. Under the terms of the currency forward contracts, the Company commits to sell the local currency of certain subsidiaries in exchange for U.S. dollars at specified forward rates. Derivatives designated as net investment hedges are accounted for using the spot method, with changes in the fair value of the derivatives attributable to changes in spot rates recorded within foreign currency translation (“CTA”) as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) and remaining there until the hedged net investments are sold or substantially liquidated. The changes in the fair value of the derivatives that are attributable to changes in the difference between the forward rate and spot rate are excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. The changes in fair value that are attributable to the excluded components are initially recorded in CTA and then recognized in interest expense on the Consolidated Income Statement over the life of the derivative instruments. Cash flows from derivatives designated as net investment hedges are reported as cash flows from investing activities in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, except for cash flows from the periodic interest settlements of cross-currency interest rate swaps designated as net investment hedges, which are reported as cash flows from operating activities in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

At December 31, 2025, the maximum remaining length of time over which the Company has hedged its exposure is approximately eight years. The weighted-average remaining maturity of the Company’s net investment hedge instruments was approximately three years at December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025. At December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025, the Company had unrealized losses of $119 million and $6 million (each before taxes), respectively, in AOCI related to net investment hedges. As of December 31, 2025, $47 million of these unrealized losses relate to settled instruments.

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

The Company enters into currency forward and swap contracts to hedge exposures related to assets, liabilities and earnings across its subsidiaries. These contracts are not designated as hedging instruments, and therefore changes in fair value of these contracts are reported in earnings in other expense (income) in the Consolidated Income Statement. The gains and losses on these contracts generally offset the gains and losses in the underlying hedged exposures, which are also reported in other expense (income) in the Consolidated Income Statement. Cash flows from derivatives not designated as hedges are reported in cash flows from investing activities in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. The terms of these contracts are generally less thanone year.

The Effect of Derivative Instruments in the Consolidated Income Statement

NOTE 8. ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES

Pending Acquisition of Solvinity Group B.V.

In November 2025, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire all outstanding equity interests of Solvinity Group B.V., a provider of managed cloud platforms and services in the Netherlands, for cash consideration of approximately €100 million. The acquisition is expected to close in the first half of calendar year 2026, subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approval.

Disposal of the Securities Industry Services (“SIS”) Platform in Canada

In November 2024, the Company completed the sale of its transaction processing platform for securities brokerage industry services in Canada (which is a component of the Company’s Principal Markets segment), for approximately $185 million in cash. In connection with the sale, the Company recognized a$145 million pretax gain, which was recorded within transaction-related costs (benefits) on the Consolidated Income Statement. This disposition was not accounted for as discontinued operations as it did not meet the relevant criteria. The carrying value of the net assets sold was not material.

NOTE 9. INTANGIBLE ASSETS INCLUDING GOODWILL

  • Amounts include effects from foreign currency translation.

The net carrying amount of intangible assets decreased by $51 million during the nine months ended December 31, 2025, primarily due to the reclassification of certain capitalized software intangibles to prepaid assets and other noncurrent assets resulting from the migration of on-premises software to a cloud-based solution. The aggregate intangible asset amortization expense was $14 million and $42 million for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2025, compared to $18 million and $54 million for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2024, respectively. This included amortization of capitalized software of $7 million and $22 million for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2025, respectively, which was reported in “Depreciation of property, equipment and capitalized software” on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

The future amortization expense relating to intangible assets currently recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet was estimated to be the following at December 31, 2025:

​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​ · ​

There wereno goodwill impairment losses recorded for the nine months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. Management reviews goodwill for impairment annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable by first assessing qualitative factors to determine if it is more likely than not that fair value is less than carrying value.

NOTE 11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company guarantees certain loans and financial commitments. The maximum potential future payment under these financial guarantees and the fair value of these guarantees recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025 were not material. Additionally, the Company has contractual commitments

that are noncancellable with certain software, hardware and cloud partners used in the delivery of services to customers. During the nine months ended December 31, 2025, contractual commitments decreased due to satisfaction of existing commitments outpacing new additions.

As a Fortune 500 company with customers and employees around the world, Kyndryl is subject to, and could become subject to, either as plaintiff or defendant, a variety of contingencies, including claims, demands and suits, investigations, tax matters and other legal proceedings that arise from time to time, including in the ordinary course of its business. In addition, given the rapidly evolving external landscape of cybersecurity, privacy and data protection laws, regulations and threat actors, the Company or its clients has and could become subject to actions or proceedings in various jurisdictions. The Company is also subject to, and could become subject to, actions and proceedings in various jurisdictions involving a wide range of labor and employment issues (including matters related to contested employment decisions, country-specific labor and employment laws, and the Company’s benefit plans), as well as actions with respect to commercial matters, contracts, securities, foreign operations, competition law, environmental matters and regulatory compliance matters, among others. These actions have been and may be commenced by a number of different parties, including competitors, clients, suppliers, service providers, licensees, employees, government and regulatory agencies, stockholders and representatives of the locations in which the Company does business. Some of the actions to which the Company is, or may become, party involve particularly complex technical issues, and some actions raise novel questions under the laws of the various jurisdictions in which these matters arise. Additionally, the Company is, and may become, a party to agreements pursuant to which it may be obligated to indemnify the other party with respect to certain disputed matters. The Company cannot predict the final outcome in any type of legal proceeding described above and there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful or obtain any requested relief or outcome in any matter. Matters often develop over a long period of time and expectations can change as a result of new findings, rulings, appeals, settlements, legal or regulatory changes or other factors. From time to time, the Company may discontinue or settle and compromise matters as appropriate in the Company’s best interest.

The Company records a provision with respect to a claim, suit, investigation or proceeding when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. If the Company is unable to assess the outcome of a matter or estimate the possible loss or range of losses that could potentially result from such matter, a liability is not recorded.

The Company reviews claims, suits, investigations and proceedings, and decisions are made with respect to recording or adjusting provisions and relevant disclosures to reflect the impact and status of settlement discussions, discovery, procedural and substantive rulings, reviews by counsel and other information pertinent to a particular matter. In the three months ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded a reserve related to an interim arbitration decision on a pre-spin customer contract dispute that was recorded as transaction-related costs.

Whether any losses, damages or remedies finally determined in any claim, suit, investigation or proceeding could reasonably have a material effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows will depend on a number of variables, including the timing and amount of such losses or damages; the structure and type of any such remedies; the significance of the impact any such losses, damages or remedies may have in the consolidated financial statements; and the unique facts and circumstances of the particular matter that may give rise to additional factors. While the Company will continue to prosecute or defend itself vigorously, as appropriate, it is possible that the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows could be affected overall or in any particular fiscal period by any of these matters or any claims or legal proceedings that arise as a result of these matters. In addition, the legal costs associated with the foregoing could be substantial, regardless of their outcome.

SEC Matter

The Company received and is responding to voluntary document requests from the Division of Enforcement of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) relating to the Company’s cash management practices, related disclosures, the efficacy of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, and certain other matters. The

Company is cooperating with the SEC. The matter is ongoing and the Company cannot currently predict its final outcome.

Securities Litigation

In February 2026, a purported Company stockholder filed a putative class action in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York against the Company and certain current and former officers, alleging false and misleading statements in the Company’s disclosures. The plaintiff seeks monetary damages and costs and expenses. The matter is ongoing and the Company cannot currently predict its final outcome.

Share Repurchase Program

In November 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to $300 million of the Company’s common stock, and in November 2025, the Company announced that the Board of Directors authorized an additional $400 million of repurchase capacity under this program (the “Share Repurchase Program”). Under the Share Repurchase Program, the Company may repurchase shares of its common stock from time to time in open market transactions and may also repurchase shares in accelerated share buyback programs, tender offers, privately negotiated transactions or by other means. Repurchases may also be made under a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan. The timing and amount of repurchase transactions will be determined by the Company’s management based on its evaluation of market conditions, share price, legal requirements and other factors. The program does not have a set expiration date and may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time without prior notice.

During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2025, the Company repurchased 3.7 and 8.4 million shares of its common stock at an aggregate cost of $100 and $254 million, respectively, under the Share Repurchase Program. As of December 31, 2025, approximately $351 million of capacity remained available under the Share Repurchase Program.

NOTE 14. WORKFORCE REBALANCING AND SITE-RATIONALIZATION CHARGES

During the nine months ended December 31, 2025, the Company initiated actions to reduce our overall cost structure and increase our operating efficiency which we expect to continue through the end of the fiscal year 2026. We expect these actions will result in workforce rebalancing charges (the “Fiscal 2026 Program”) of approximately $60 million.

During the year ended March 31, 2025, the Company implemented actions to reduce our overall cost structure and increase our operating efficiency (the “Fiscal 2025 Program”). The total charges incurred related to the Fiscal 2025 Program were $162 million, consisting of $114 million in workforce rebalancing charges and $48 million in charges related to ceasing to use leased and owned fixed assets. The Company expects that these actions will reduce future payroll costs, rent expenses and depreciation of property and equipment.

The following table presents the segment breakout of charges incurred during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
