Previous wording

The LOGCAP V - Kuwait Task Order was exercised through June 30, 2026 and provides services to support the Geographical Combatant Commands and Army Service Component Commands throughout the full range of military operations in the Kuwait region. On May 12, 2026, the U.S. Department of the Army notified the Company of its decision to reduce the scope of work being performed under this task order and to extend the contract with respect to the revised scope for an additional six months to December 31, 2026. The LOGCAP V - Kuwait Task Order contributed $182.4 million and $229.1 million of revenue for the six months ended July 3, 2026 and June 27, 2025, respectively. As a result of this modification, the Company reduced its backlog by $414.6 million. The Company continues to work with the U.S. Department of the Army to support them in the region, including through the current extension of the original task order for $22.6 million until the end of 2026, as well as through other contract vehicles. Management does not currently expect the reduction in scope of the LOGCAP V - Kuwait Task Order to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations, including revenue due to other programs ramp up as reflected in "Discussion of Financial Results"section.

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 or bridge contracts, typically for periods of one year or less.

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. 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 DoW budget remains the largest defense budget in the world and management believes the Company's addressable portion of the DoW budget offers substantial opportunity for growth.

The U.S. government's Fiscal Year (FY) begins on October 1 and ends on September 30. 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. The OBBBA was signed into law by the President on July 4th, 2025, and allocates approximately $150 billion in mandatory funds to support defense and national security priorities that are available to be obligated through September 30, 2029. See Note 9, Income Taxes, in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further discussion relating to the OBBBA.

Previous wording

On April 21, 2026, the DoW released the President's FY 2027 defense budget which requests $1.45 trillion in total budgetary resources. While the FY 2027 budget request reflects a significant increase from FY 2026 levels, it has not yet been passed as law and 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.

While the FY 2027 budget request reflects a significant increase from FY 2026 levels, it has not yet been passed as law. On September 2, 2026, a continuing resolution (CR) was enacted to provide funding for U.S. government operations, which includes DoW operations, through December 11, 2026. The CR generally funds U.S. government operations at FY 2026 funding levels. 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.

Previous wording

While it is difficult to predict the specific course of future defense budgets, V2X believes the core functions the Company performs are mission-essential and spending to maintain readiness, improve performance, increase service life, lower cost, and modernize capabilities will continue to be a U.S. government priority. The Company's focus is on providing integrated solutions across the mission lifecycle that encompass (i) high impact readiness; (ii) integrated supply chain management; (iii) assured communications; (iv) mission solutions, including rapid response contingency efforts; and (v) platform renewal and modernization. The Company believes its capabilities enhance mission effectiveness, extend utility, lower cost, and improve security and mission outcomes. While customers may reduce the level of services required from us, the Company does not currently anticipate the complete elimination of these services, and the Company continues to focus on contract expansion and capturing new business opportunities.

Previous wording

However, business conditions have become more challenging and uncertain due to macroeconomic and geopolitical 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. Additionally, global hostilities could also impact our ability to deliver our products and services to customers. Further, we continue to closely monitor impacts to our business and operations in the Middle East, and the region at large due to the conflict in Iran. In addition, 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. 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, including as a result of tariffs, 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.

Cash, accounts receivable, unbilled receivables, and accounts payable are the principal components of the Company's working capital and are generally driven by revenue with other short-term fluctuations related to payment practices by customers, sales of accounts receivable through the MARPA Facility and the timing of billings.
