Current report
The U.S. government has not yet enacted an annual budget for fiscal year 2027; these proposed 2027 budgetary amounts are subject to change. A continuing resolution funding measure has been enacted to finance all U.S. government activities through December 11, 2026. Under the continuing resolution, partial-year funding at amounts consistent with appropriated levels for fiscal year 2026 are available, subject to certain restrictions, but new spending initiatives are not authorized. Uncertainty continues to exist regarding the 2027 fiscal year budget and the impacts that the upcoming elections will have on the next fiscal year budget.

Previous wording
On April 3, 2026, the Administration provided a proposed fiscal 2027 budget for the U.S. Government which includes approximately $2.2 trillion in base discretionary spending, $1.5 trillion related to defense spending and $0.7 trillion for non-defense spending. The proposed defense spending is 44% higher than the enacted fiscal 2026 defense spending when including mandatory funding. We anticipate the federal budget will continue to be subject to debate and compromise shaped by, among other things, the Administration and Congress, efficiency initiatives, the global security environment, inflationary pressures including tariffs and macroeconomic conditions. Thus far, the Administration's directives have resulted in federal government staff reductions and hiring freezes and may result in delays in contract awards.

Thus far, the Administration's directives have resulted in federal government staff reductions and hiring freezes and may result in delays in contract awards. On April 30, 2026, the Administration issued an executive order directing comprehensive reviews of all private-sector contracts to monitor cost efficiency and ensure policy alignment. This order could affect future contract funding with our U.S. government customers. Thus far, we have not seen a material impact on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows and continue to monitor the impact of the order.

In September 2025, we announced our intention to spin off our Mission Technology Solutions business into a separate, U.S. publicly-traded company. The Planned Spin-Off is intended to be tax-free to us and our shareholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes and targeting completion on January 4, 2027, which is the first business day of fiscal 2027. The spin-off will be subject to final approval by our Board of Directors and other customary conditions, including receipt of a favorable opinion of legal counsel and/or a private letter ruling from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service with respect to the tax treatment of the transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the effectiveness of a registration statement on Form 10 filed with the SEC, satisfactory completion of financing and other regulatory approvals. Because the intended transaction is a spin-off, the Mission Technology Solutions business is not classified as held for sale and is reported as continuing operations.

We estimate that as of October 2, 2026, 38% of our backlog will be executed within one year. Of this amount, we estimate that 81% will be recognized in revenues on our condensed consolidated statements of operations and 19% will be recorded by our unconsolidated joint ventures.

Previous wording
As of July 3, 2026, 15% of our backlog was attributable to fixed-price contracts, 37% was attributable to PFIs, 22% was attributable to cost-reimbursable contracts and 26% was attributable to time-and-materials contracts. PFI arrangements are predominantly fixed‑price in nature, and therefore the PFI portion of backlog primarily reflects fixed‑price contractual structures. For contracts that contain fixed-price, cost-reimbursable and time-and-materials components, we classify the individual components as either fixed-price, cost-reimbursable or time-and-materials according to the composition of the contract; however, for smaller contracts, we characterize the entire contract based on the predominant component. As of July 3, 2026, $8.8 billionof our MTS backlog was currently funded by our customers. Excluding PFIs, 39% of our MTS backlog is currently funded by our customers. As of July 3, 2026, we had approximately $5.2 billion of priced option periods not yet exercised by the customer for U.S. government contracts that are not included in the backlog amounts presented above.
Current wording
As of October 2, 2026, 15% of our backlog was attributable to fixed-price contracts, 38% was attributable to PFIs, 19% was attributable to cost-reimbursable contracts and 28% was attributable to time-and-materials contracts. PFI arrangements are predominantly fixed‑price in nature, and therefore the PFI portion of backlog primarily reflects fixed‑price contractual structures. For contracts that contain fixed-price, cost-reimbursable and time-and-materials components, we classify the individual components as either fixed-price, cost-reimbursable or time-and-materials according to the composition of the contract; however, for smaller contracts, we characterize the entire contract based on the predominant component. As of October 2, 2026, $9.0 billionof our MTS backlog was currently funded by our customers. Excluding PFIs, 45% of our MTS backlog is currently funded by our customers. As of October 2, 2026, we had approximately $5.4 billion of priced option periods not yet exercised by the customer for U.S. government contracts that are not included in the backlog amounts presented above.

Liquidity is provided by available cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from operations, our Senior Credit Facility (as defined below), sale or divestiture of assets and access to capital markets. Our operating cash flow can vary significantly from year to year and is affected by the mix, terms, timing and stage of completion of our projects. We often receive cash in advance on certain of our sustainable technology projects. On time-and-material and cost reimbursable contracts, we may utilize cash on hand or availability under our Senior Credit Facility to satisfy any periodic operating cash requirements for working capital, as we incur costs and subsequently invoice our customers.

Certain STS services projects may require us to provide credit support for our performance obligations to our customers in the form of letters of credit, surety bonds or guarantees. Our ability to obtain new project awards in the future may be dependent on our letter of credit and surety bonding capacity, which may be further dependent on the timely release of existing letters of credit and surety bonds. As the need for credit support arises, letters of credit may be issued under the Revolver (as defined below) or with lending counterparties on a bilateral, syndicated or other basis.

Cash flows from operating activities result primarily from earnings and are affected by changes in operating assets and liabilities, which consist primarily of working capital balances for projects. Working capital levels vary from year to year and are primarily affected by our volume of work. These levels are also impacted by the mix, stage of completion and commercial terms of projects. Working capital requirements also vary by project depending on the type of client and location throughout the world.

During the six months ended July 3, 2026, cash flows decreased primarily due to the resolution of an outstanding unapproved change order within our Mission Technology Solutions segment in the six months ended July 4, 2025 that did not recur in the six months ended July 3, 2026 and decreases in distributions of earnings from unconsolidated affiliates. These decreases were offset by changes in the primary components of our working capital. The primary components of our working capital accounts are accounts receivable, contract assets, accounts payable and contract liabilities. These components are impacted by the size and changes in the mix of our cost-reimbursable and time-and-materials projects versus fixed price projects, and as a result, fluctuations in these components are not uncommon in our business.

On April 30, 2026, the Administration issued an executive order directing comprehensive reviews of all private-sector contracts to monitor cost efficiency and ensure policy alignment. This order could affect future contract funding with our U.S. government customers. Thus far, we have not seen a material impact on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows and continue to monitor the impact of the order.
