Leidos Holdings Inc

U.S. Government Markets

During the three and nine months ended September 27, 2024, we generated approximately 87% of total revenues from contracts with the U.S. government, as compared to 87% and 86% for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023, respectively. 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 26, 2024, Congress avoided a federal government shutdown by passing a continuing resolution that provides government funding through December 20, 2024. The continuing resolution gives lawmakers additional time after the November elections to consider the 12 appropriations bills for government fiscal year 2025, emergency supplemental funding for the recent hurricanes and wildfires, and organize new leadership of the House of Representatives and Senate. Failure to pass the appropriation bills or another continuing resolution by December 20, 2024, will result in a partial or complete federal government shutdown.

International Markets

Sales to customers in international markets represented approximately 8% of total revenues for both the three and nine months ended September 27, 2024, as compared to 9% for both the three and nine months ended September 29, 2023. 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 the procurement cost of certain IT hardware used both on our contracts and internally. However, we expect to recover certain portions of these higher tariffs through our cost-plus contracts. We are currently evaluating the impact of higher tariffs, and do not expect the tariffs to have a significant impact to our business.
