Previous report

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

Previous report

Beginning in fiscal 2024, we realigned our business and operate in four reportable segments that are focused on specific, defined capability sets we bring to our customers. As a result of this change, prior year segment results and disclosures have been recast to reflect the current reportable segment structure. We now operate in the following reportable segments: National Security & Digital, Health & Civil, Commercial & International and Defense Systems. We also separately present the unallocable costs associated with corporate functions as Corporate (see "Note 10–Business Segments").

Previous report

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.
