Current report

The U.S. government's Fiscal Year (FY) begins on October 1 and ends on September 30. The DoW FY 2026 base budget request is approximately $848 billion, which does not include the mandatory funding contained in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA). The OBBBA was signed into law by the President on July 4 th, 2025, and allocates approximately $150 billion in mandatory funds to support defense and national security priorities. Of the $150 billion in OBBBA appropriations, approximately $113 billion was aligned to the FY 2026 DoW budget. See Note 12, Income Taxes, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further discussion relating to the OBBBA.

Current report

Annual appropriations for FY 2026 were not completed on time and, as such, on October 1, 2025, the U.S. government entered a shutdown, which ended on November 12, 2025. While we did not experience a material impact from the U.S. government shutdown, if the shutdown had continued for an extended period of time, it could have resulted in significant consequences for our company, employees, customers, suppliers and our industry. It could have also resulted in material impacts to our financial position, results of operations, bookings, backlog, and/or collections and cash flows. On February 3, 2026, the President signed into law, H.R. 7148, the “Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2026,” to end a partial government shutdown and fund the DoW and other federal agencies through FY 2026. The defense funding bill includes approximately $839 billion in appropriations, which is approximately $8 billion above the Pentagon’s budget request.

Current report

On May 15, 2025, we entered into an underwriting agreement (the May 2025 Underwriting Agreement), by and among the Company, Vertex Aerospace Holdco LLC (the Selling Shareholder) and RBC Capital Markets, LLC, as underwriter (the Underwriter), relating to the public offering (the May 2025 Offering) of 2,000,000 shares of common stock by the Selling Shareholder and up to 300,000 additional shares of common stock at the Underwriter’s option at any time on or before the 30th day after the date of the prospectus supplement dated May 15, 2025 (the May 2025 Option). The May 2025 Offering closed on May 19, 2025. The Selling Shareholder elected not to exercise the May 2025 Option. The Company did not sell any securities in the May 2025 Offering and did not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares offered by the Selling Shareholder.

Current report

On August 8, 2025, we entered into an underwriting agreement (the August 2025 Underwriting Agreement), by and among the Company, the Selling Shareholder and the Underwriter, relating to the public offering (the August 2025 Offering) of 2,000,000 shares of common stock by the Selling Shareholder. The August 2025 Offering closed on August 11, 2025. In connection with the August 2025 Offering, we purchased from the Underwriter 200,000 shares of common stock that were subject to the August 2025 Offering at a price per share equal to the price per share paid by the Underwriter to the Selling Shareholder in the August 2025 Offering.

Current report

Cost of revenue increased by $127.5 million, or 3.2%, for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to the increase in revenue.

Previous report

The U.S. government's Fiscal Year (FY) begins on October 1 and ends on September 30. The Fiscal 2025 budget request was submitted to the U.S. Congress on March 11, 2024, and requested $895 billion for National Defense, with $850 billion of the total allocated to the DoD. On March 23, 2024, the President signed into law the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act for FY 2024, which provided $825 billion in funding for the DoD, through September 30, 2024. On April 24, 2024, the President signed a bill providing $95 billion in additional supplemental funding for Ukraine, Israel and the Indo-Pacific region.

Previous report

The Fiscal 2025 budget has not yet been approved and Congress continues to pass short-term continuing resolutions (CR) that funds U.S. government operations in FY 2025 at FY 2024 levels. The most recent CR passed extends current funding levels until March 14, 2025. The timing and approval of FY 2025 appropriations remains uncertain and over the coming months, Congress will need to approve or revise the Fiscal 2025 budget request through enactment of appropriations and other legislation, which would require final approval from the President to become law. Government operations under an extended CR could have potential impacts on the timing and award of new programs and contracts.

Previous report

Cost of revenue increased by 350.9 million, or 9.7%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily due to increases in revenue and changes in contract mix.

Previous report

Net cash provided by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2023 consisted of cash inflows from non-cash income items of $169.8 million and cash inflows from the sale of receivables through the MARPA Facility of $72.7 million, partially offset by a net loss of $22.6 million, cash outflows for other non-current assets and liabilities of $25.8 million, and cash outflows for working capital requirements of $6.1 million.

Business Combinations, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Previous report

The purchase price of an acquired business is allocated to the tangible assets, financial assets and separately recognized intangible assets acquired less liabilities assumed based upon their respective fair values, with the excess recorded as goodwill. Determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed requires significant judgment, which includes, among other factors, analysis of historical performance and estimates of future performance. These factors may cause final amounts to differ materially from original estimates. In some cases, we use discounted cash flow analyses, which are based on our best estimate of future revenue, earnings and cash flows as well as our discount rate adjusted for risk.

Previous report

Goodwill is not amortized, but instead is tested for impairment annually (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise, such as changes to the reporting unit structure or significant adverse changes in the business climate). We conduct our annual impairment testing as of the beginning of the fourth fiscal quarter. In reviewing goodwill for impairment, we have the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the estimated fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If we elect to perform a qualitative assessment and determine that an impairment is more likely than not, we then perform a quantitative impairment test as described below. Otherwise, no further analysis is required. We also may elect not to perform the qualitative assessment and, instead, proceed directly to the quantitative impairment test.

Previous report

For the quantitative impairment test we compare the estimated fair value of a reporting unit to its carrying value, including goodwill. If the estimated fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, goodwill of the reporting unit is not impaired. If the carrying value of the reporting unit, including goodwill, exceeds its estimated fair value, a goodwill impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit while taking into consideration the related income tax effect from any tax-deductible goodwill.

Previous report

For 2024 and 2023, we used the qualitative approach to assess goodwill for impairment. No impairment charges related to goodwill were recorded during 2024 and 2023.

Previous report

We recognize acquired intangible assets apart from goodwill whenever the intangible assets arise from contractual or other legal rights, or whenever they can be separated or divided from the acquired entity and sold, transferred, licensed, rented or exchanged, either individually or in combination with a related contract, asset or liability. Such intangibles are amortized over their estimated useful lives unless the estimated useful life is determined to be indefinite. Amortizable intangible assets are being amortized over useful lives of four to eight years. The straight-line method of amortization is used as it has been determined to approximate the use pattern of the assets.

Previous wording

Our revenue increased by $359.0 million, or 9.1%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. Revenue increased primarily due to organic growth on legacy programs and new program performance. Revenue from our programs in the Middle East, the U.S., and Asia, increased by $205.8 million, $102.6 million, and $62.6 million, respectively, partially offset by a decrease in revenue from our programs in Europe of $12.0 million, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023.

Current wording

Our revenue increased by $157.9 million, or 3.7%, for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024.

Previous wording

Total backlog includes remaining performance obligations, consisting of both funded backlog (firm orders for which funding is contractually authorized and appropriated by the customer) and unfunded backlog (firm orders for which funding is not currently contractually obligated by the customer and unexercised contract options). Total backlog excludes potential orders under IDIQ contracts and contracts awarded to us that are being protested by competitors with the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) or in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims (COFC). The value of the backlog is based on anticipated revenue levels over the anticipated life of the contract. Actual values may be greater or less than anticipated. Total backlog is converted into revenue as work is performed. The level of order activity related to programs can be affected by the timing of government funding authorizations and their project evaluation cycles. Year-over-year comparisons could, at times, be impacted by these factors, among others.

Current wording

Backlog represents revenue we expect to recognize in the future as work is performed for remaining performance obligations for our contracts. Backlog includes funded amounts (funding is contractually authorized and appropriated by the customer) and unfunded amounts (amounts not currently contractually obligated by the customer). Total backlog excludes potential orders under IDIQ contracts and contracts awarded to us that are being protested by competitors with the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) or in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims (COFC) for which a stop work order has been received by the Company. Actual backlog values may vary due to the level of order activity related to programs, the timing of government funding authorizations or de-obligations of funding. Year-over-year comparisons could, at times, be impacted by these factors, among others.

Previous wording

Our contracts are multi-year contracts and typically include an initial period of one year or less with annual one-year or less option periods for the remaining contract period. The number of option periods vary by contract, and there is no guarantee that an option period will be exercised. The right to exercise an option period is at the sole discretion of the U.S. government when we are the prime contractor or of the prime contractor when we are a subcontractor. The U.S. government may also extend the term of a program by issuing extensions of bridge contracts, typically for periods of one year or less.

Previous wording

Total backlog decreased by $0.3 billion in the year ended December 31, 2024, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily due to the timing of new awards offset by recognition of revenue. The following is a summary of funded and unfunded backlog:

Current wording

Total backlog decreased by $1.4 billion in the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to the timing of new awards offset by recognition of revenue. The following is a summary of funded and unfunded backlog:

Previous wording

Funded orders (different from funded backlog) represent orders for which funding was received during the period. We received funded orders of $3.8 billion during the year ended December 31, 2024, which was a decrease of $0.4 billion compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. The decrease was due to timing of awards.

Current wording

Funded orders (different from funded backlog) represent orders for which funding was received during the period. We received funded orders of $4.5 billion during the year ended December 31, 2025, which was an increase of $0.7 billion compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was due to timing of awards.

Previous wording

The U.S. government’s investment in services and capabilities in response to changing security challenges creates a complex and fluid business environment for V2X and other firms in this market. However, the U.S. continues to face substantial fiscal and economic challenges in addition to a varying political environment which could affect funding. The pace and depth of U.S. government acquisition reform and cost savings initiatives, combined with increased industry competitiveness to win long-term positions on key programs, could add pressure to revenue levels and profit margins. However, the Company expects the U.S. government will continue to place a high priority on national security and will continue to invest in affordable solutions. V2X believes that its capabilities should help its clients increase efficiency, reduce costs, improve readiness, and strengthen national security and, as a result, continue to allow for long-term profitable growth in the business. Further, the DoD budget remains the largest in the world and management believes the Company's addressable portion of the DoD budget offers substantial opportunity for growth.

Previous wording

We anticipate the federal budget will continue to be subject to debate and compromise shaped by, among other things, heightened political tensions, the new Administration and Congress, the debt ceiling, the global security environment, inflationary pressures, and macroeconomic conditions. The result may be shifting funding priorities, which could have material impacts on our programs and defense spending broadly.

Current wording

While the Administration has announced their proposal for a significant increase in defense spending in FY 2027, we anticipate the federal budget will continue to be subject to debate and compromise shaped by, among other things, heightened political tensions, Congress, the debt ceiling, the global security environment, inflationary pressures, and other macroeconomic conditions. The result may shift funding priorities, which could have material impacts on our programs and defense spending broadly. Additionally, the Administration continues to assess government-wide procurement, staffing, and support activities, including the evaluation of mission priorities, acquisition methods, contract performance, and other factors, which could result in potential actions. Those actions remain uncertain and could result in impacts to our current and future financial performance and business prospects.

Previous wording

However, business conditions have become more challenging and uncertain due to macroeconomic conditions, including inflation and rising interest rates, as well as recent international events. For example, global hostilities could create additional demand for our products and services, however, any such demand, and the timing and extent of any incremental contract activity resulting from that demand, remains uncertain. Further, given the current level of inflation and geopolitical factors, the Company is monitoring the impact of rising costs on its active and future contracts and its financial results, and actively evaluating opportunities for cost reductions and deleveraging. In 2024 the Company's cost-plus and cost reimbursable contracts as a percentage of total contract mix and revenue have increased as compared to the year ended 2023. The Company’s earnings and profitability may vary materially depending on the total mix of contracts. To date, the Company has not experienced broad-based increases from inflation or geopolitical hostilities in the costs of its fixed-price and time and materials contracts that are material to the business. However, if the geopolitical conditions worsen or if the Company experiences greater than expected inflation in its supply chain and labor costs, then profit margins, and in particular, the profit margin from fixed-price and time and materials contracts, which represent a substantial portion of its contracts, could be adversely affected.

U.S. government contracts are multi-year contracts and typically include an initial period of one year or less with annual one-year (or less) option periods for the remaining contract period. The number of option periods vary by contract, and there is no guarantee that an option period will be exercised by the U.S. government. The right to exercise an option period is at the sole discretion of the U.S. government. The U.S. government may also extend the term of a program by issuing extensions or bridge contracts, typically for periods of one year or less.
