Current report

(e) In fiscal 2026, other corporate expenses consist primarily of nonrecoverable costs associated with employee severance from cost management and restructuring initiatives, transaction costs associated with a divestiture, and acquisition related costs associated with the acquisition of Defy Security, which closed in the first quarter of fiscal 2027. See Note 20, “Supplemental Consolidated Financial Information,” to the consolidated financial statements for further information. In fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024, other corporate expenses consist primarily of acquisition related costs from the acquisitions of PAR Government Systems Corporation (“PGSC”) and EverWatch Corp. ("EverWatch").

Current report

On Nove mber 12, 2025, the President signed into law the Continuing Appropriations, Agriculture, Legislative Branch, Military Construction and Veterans Affairs, and Extensions Act, 2026, which funded the U.S. government under a short-term continuing resolution through January 30, 2026. Appropriations for the U.S. government’s fiscal year 2026 were delayed, with Congress enacting partial appropriations legislation in multiple tranches, such appropriations ultimately covering a majority of federal agencies. However, a comprehensive appropriations agreement for the full year has not been reached for all agencies, and certain portions of the government have been funded through continuing resolutions or remain subject to funding uncertainty, including the Department of Homeland Security, for which funding has been provided only on a partial basis, while certain components, including its immigration enforcement operations, remain subject to funding uncertainty. As a result, uncertainty regarding federal funding levels persists. A prolonged government shutdown could have a negative impact on our business, financial condition and operating results.

Current report

On December 18, 2025, the National Defense Authorization Act was signed into law, which included a number of reforms that may also impact our business. Although the final bill did not adopt more narrow commercial preferences or expand the statutory definition of contractors who qualify as nontraditional contractors, it did exempt contractors who meet that definition from certain burdensome compliance requirements. The continued focus on removing barriers to new entrants and any related future legislation could reduce the likelihood of direct awards to companies like Booz Allen and effect our competitive position.

Current report

On January 7, 2026, the President signed an executive order, “Prioritizing the Warfighter in Defense Contracting”, that, among other things, limits stock buybacks and the payment of dividends by certain defense contractors. This executive order directs the Secretary of War to identify defense contractors that are underperforming on their contracts, not investing their own capital into necessary production capacity, not sufficiently prioritizing United States Government contracts, or whose production speed is insufficient as determined by the Secretary, and that have, during the period of underperformance or insufficient prioritization, investment, or production speed, engaged in any stock buy-back or corporate distribution. If the Company is identified pursuant to this executive order, it may have a negative impact on our dividends, stock buyback programs, and our ability to attract and retain talented executives. Compliance with the requirements of this executive order may be complex, costly and time-consuming, and our subcontractors may not have the necessary resources to ensure compliance. In addition, certain Senators have introduced legislation that would go beyond this executive order by instituting, absent a waiver, a blanket prohibition on such dividends, buybacks, and executive compensation above certain levels. This proposed legislation far exceeds the framework contemplated by the executive order and would introduce significant administrative burdens for us and other companies that could be subject to such legislation.

Current report

On April 30, 2026, the President signed an executive order, “Promoting Efficiency, Accountability, and Performance in Federal Contracting,” which directs federal agencies, subject to certain exceptions, to increase the use of firm-fixed price contracts for new awards to the maximum extent consistent with law. Additionally, agencies are directed, to the maximum extent practicable and consistent with law, to seek to modify, restructure, or renegotiate, their top ten highest-dollar-value contracts issued on an other-than-fixed price basis. The Company is supportive of the recent focus by the administration on the increased usage of fixed-price and outcomes-based contracting (we refer to firm fixed price contracts where we deliver a specific outcome for a predetermined price as “outcomes-based contracting”). Compared to time-and-materials and cost-reimbursable contracts, outcomes-based contracting generally offers higher margin opportunities because we receive the benefits of any cost savings, but can involve greater financial risk because we bear the impact of any cost overruns. Additionally, we believe outcomes-based contracting results in more efficient contracting outcomes and potential savings for the U.S. government.

Current report

Revenue decreased 6% to $11,217 million, primarily driven by the impact of a slowed procurement and funding environment, including the government shutdown that occurred in the third quarter of fiscal 2026. These factors drove a decrease in headcount, as well as a decline in billable expenses. In addition, the change in revenue was positively impacted by a$122 million reduction to our provision for claimed costs recorded during fiscal 2025.

Current report

Operating income decreased 25% to$1,033 million, reflecting decreases in operating margin from 11% to 9%. Operating income was driven by the same factors noted above.

Current report

Other income (expense) decreased 24% to $13 million, primarily due to higher realized gains in fiscal 2025, partially offset by higher unrealized gains in fiscal 2026.

Current report

Income tax expense decreased 96% to $11 million. The effective tax rate decreased to 1.3% in fiscal 2026 from 23% in fiscal 2025. The decrease in tax expense was primarily driven by a reduction in the income tax reserve related to the completion of the IRS examination procedures and the tax benefit recognized in the third quarter as a result of a higher-than-estimated research and development tax credit and additional foreign derived intangible income deductions.

Current report

Current report

Net cash provided by operations was $1.0 billion in both fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025. Operating cash flow was consistent with the prior year as lower tax payments were partially offset by the $115 million in insurance recoveries received in fiscal 2025.

Previous report

During fiscal 2025, the Company generated year over year revenue growth of 12%, primarily driven by strong demand for our solutions, outcomes, and services, as well as an increase in headcount to meet that demand, and higher billable expenses. In addition, revenue was positively impacted by$122 million representing the reduction to our provision forclaimed costs recorded during the second quarter of fiscal 2025 (as compared to $18 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2024). See Note 19, “Commitments and Contingencies,”within this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further information.

Previous report

Operating income increased 35% to $1,370 million in fiscal 2025 from $1,014 million in fiscal 2024, which reflects an increase in operating margin to 11% from 10% in the comparable year. Operating income was driven by the same drivers benefiting revenue growth, as well as ongoing cost management efforts. Margins were impacted by a decrease in general and administrative expenses resulting from $115 million in insurance recoveries from claims related to the Company’s fiscal 2024 settlement as described in Note 19, “Commitments and Contingencies,”within this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

(c) Represents costs associated with the acquisition efforts of the Company related to transactions for which the Company has submitted a letter of intent to acquire a controlling financial interest in the target entity. Transactions primarily include the acquisitions of EverWatch Corp. (“EverWatch”) in fiscal 2023 and PAR Government Systems Corporation (“PGSC”) in fiscal 2025. See Note 5, “Acquisitions and Divestitures,”to the consolidated financial statements contained within this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further information.

Previous report

On March 15, 2025, the President signed into law the Full-Year Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act, 2025 (the “2025 Appropriations Act”), which funds the U.S. government under a continuing resolution through September 30, 2025, its fiscal year end. In total, the fiscal year 2025 continuing resolution funding is roughly equivalent to the U.S. government’s fiscal year 2024 funding with a few anomalies and other smaller shifts in funding between appropriations titles. The 2025 Appropriations Act increases the Department of Defense’s fiscal year 2025 base budget, while reducing nondefense spending. Unlike other continuing resulting funding measures, the 2025 Appropriations Act provides the Department of Defense conditional authority to permit new program starts, as long as they were included in the fiscal year 2025 House or Senate appropriation bills, furthering the flexibility of the Department of Defense operating under a continuing resolution.

Previous report

In January 2025, the Federal debt ceiling was reached, and the U.S. Department of the Treasury is operating under “extraordinary measures” to service debt obligations of the U.S. government. The Treasury has not yet indicated when those measures will be exhausted, but it is expected that the date of potential U.S. government default will be sometime during the summer of 2025. Before that time, Congress will need to pass, and the President will need to sign, legislation that would extend or eliminate the debt limit. Failure to do so, or any agreement to raise the ceiling that significantly reduces future funding, could lead to negative impacts on our business.

Previous report

(1)Backlog presented at March 31, 2025 includes backlog acquired from the Company’s acquisition of PGSC during fiscal 2025. Original backlog value at acquisition was $231 million.

Previous report

(2)Amounts reflect the Company’s change in policy during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 as noted below.

Previous report

Our most significant operating costs and expenses are described below.

Previous report

As noted in Item 1, “Business - Regulation,” of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, in the ordinary course of business, agencies of the U.S. government for which the Company is engaged as a prime contractor or a subcontractor, including the Defense Contract Audit Agency (the “DCAA”), audit the Company’s claimed costs and conduct inquiries and investigations of our business practices with respect to government contracts. Such audits may result in, and have historically resulted in, the Company’s inability to retain certain claimed costs, including executive and employee compensation, due to differing views of the allowability and reasonableness of such costs.

Previous report

Remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price of exercised contracts for which work has not yet been performed, regardless of whether funding has or has not been authorized and appropriated as of the date of exercise. Remaining performance obligations exclude negotiated but unexercised options and certain variable consideration which the Company does not expect to recognize as revenue.

Previous report

Provisions for federal, state, and foreign income taxes are calculated from the income reported on our consolidated financial statements based on current tax law and also include the cumulative effect of any changes in tax rates from those previously used in determining deferred tax assets and liabilities. Such provisions differ from the amounts currently receivable or payable because certain items of income and expense are recognized in different time periods for purposes of preparing consolidated financial statements than for income tax purposes.

Previous report

Significant judgment is required in determining income tax provisions and evaluating tax positions. We establish reserves for uncertain tax positions when, despite the belief that our tax positions are supportable, there remains uncertainty in a tax position taken in our previously filed income tax returns. For tax positions where it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will be sustained, we record the largest amount of tax benefit with a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. To the extent we prevail in matters for which accruals have been established or are required to pay amounts in excess of reserves, our effective tax rate in a given consolidated financial statement period may be materially impacted.

Previous report

The carrying value of our net deferred tax assets assumes that we will be able to generate sufficient future taxable income in certain tax jurisdictions to realize the value of these assets. If we are unable to generate sufficient future taxable income in these jurisdictions, a valuation allowance is recorded when it is more likely than not that the value of the deferred tax assets is not realizable.

Previous report

Revenue increased 12% to $11,980 million, primarily driven by strong demand for our solutions, outcomes, and services, as well as an increase in headcount to meet that demand, and higher billable expenses. In addition, revenue was positively impacted by$122 million representing the reduction to our provision for claimed costs recorded during fiscal 2025 (as compared to $18 million in fiscal 2024). See Note 19, “Commitments and Contingencies,” to the consolidated financial statements for further information

Previous report

Cost of revenue increased 10% to $5,419 million, and decreased as a percentage of revenue to 45% from 46%. The increase was primarily due to an increase in salaries and salary-related benefits of $540 million, driven by increased headcount and annual base salary increases, partially offset by a decrease in incentive and stock-based compensation of $47 million over the prior year.

Previous report

General and administrative expenses decreased 3% to $1,246 million, and decreased as a percentage of revenue to 10% from 12%. Fiscal 2025 was impacted by $115 million ininsurance recoveries from claims related to the Company’s fiscal 2024 settlement as described in Note 19, “Commitments and Contingencies,” to the consolidated financial statements contained within this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further information, as well as a $27 million reserve from fiscal 2024 associated with the U.S. Department of Justice's investigation of the Company, not present in the current year. Partially offsetting the above was an increase in salaries and salary related benefits of $75 million, and increases in other business expenses and professional fees of $29 million.

Previous report

Depreciation and amortization expense increased 1% to $165 million, primarily driven by increases in internal software amortization, partially offset by decreases in intangible amortization related to acquisitions.

Previous report

Interest expense, net increased 14% to $168 million. This was primarily due to the following:

Previous report

•A decrease in interest income driven by a combination of a lower average cash balance and lower interest rates, partially offset by,

Previous report

Other income (expense), net increased to $17 million from $(13) million in the prior year period primarily due to the following:

Previous report

•An increase of $13 million as a result of the gain on sale of an investment in fiscal 2025;

Previous report

•An increase of $11 million in the fair value of the Company’s cost method investments reflected in fiscal 2025, as compared to a net decrease in fiscal 2024 of $6 million from non-recurring valuation adjustments (primarily from the write-off of one of its investments), resulting in a year over year increase of $17 million.

Previous report

Income tax expense increased to $284 million from $248 million. The effective tax rate decreased to 23% in fiscal 2025 from 29% in fiscal 2024. The increase in income tax expense for the year to date period was primarily driven by increases in pre-tax income. The decrease in the effective tax rate was driven by increases in fiscal 2024 state taxes, related to an unfavorable ruling received from the District of Columbia Court of Appeals related to contested tax assessments from the District of Columbia Office of Tax and Revenue (“DC OTR”) and the fiscal 2024 reversal of prior period indirect effects of underlying prior period uncertain tax positions.

Previous report

Net cash provided by operations was $1.0 billion in fiscal 2025 compared to $259 million in fiscal 2024. Fiscal 2025 operating cash was aided by strong collection performance and overall revenue growth. Fiscal 2024 reflects a $378 million outflow related to the Company’s fiscal 2024 settlement as described in Note 20, “Commitments and Contingencies,” to the consolidated financial statements contained within the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024, whereas fiscal 2025 reflects $115 million in insurance recoveries from claims related to that settlement.

Previous report

Net cash used in investing activities was $218 million in fiscal 2025 compared to $91 million in the prior year. The increase in net cash used over the prior year was primarily due to the Company’s acquisition of PAR Government Systems Corporation for$99 million, net of post-closing adjustments and incurred transaction costs as part of the acquisition, as well as an increase in capital expenditures over the prior year of $31 million. See Note 5, “Acquisitions and Divestitures,” to the consolidated financial statements contained within this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further information on the acquisition.

Previous wording

The U.S. continues to face an uncertain and evolving political, budget and regulatory environment, and we expect this uncertainty will continue. Our business performance is affected by the overall level of U.S. government spending and the alignment of our offerings and capabilities with the spending priorities of the U.S. government.

The U.S. continues to face an uncertain and evolving budgetary and regulatory environment, and we expect this uncertainty will continue. Our business performance is affected by the overall level of U.S. government spending and the alignment of our offerings and capabilities with the spending priorities of the U.S. government.

Previous wording

The U.S. government is driving changes in the structure and priorities of U.S. government agencies and the U.S. government is currently in the process of reviewing spending across U.S. government agencies to ensure it aligns with the new administration’s priorities of maximizing governmental efficiency and productivity. We have been, and will continue to be, subject to these reviews, and we have had, and may in the future have, certain of our contracts impacted, reduced or canceled as a result of these reviews. We have also experienced price adjustments and renegotiations prior to option exercise of certain of our contracts as a result of these reviews and may in the future continue to experience such adjustments. Further, we are, and may in the future be, subject to customer mandates to formulate additional methods by which to achieve efficiencies in providing our services, and we remain in ongoing discussions with various U.S. government departments and agencies in relation to cost reductions and other potential contract modifications. There can be no assurance that these reviews will not ultimately have a material adverse impact on our business and financial performance. There has been a marked increase in negative publicity regarding government contractors (including the Company) in connection with the U.S. government’s efforts to improve efficiency and reduce costs, which could harm our reputation and could have a material impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Previous wording

The new U.S. government administration is putting in place a number of Executive Orders and actions that have and could continue to affect our business. U.S. government agencies are also undertaking their own independent reviews of their contract portfolios and reviewing future procurements in response to recent Executive Orders focused on efficiency in government procurement. At the same time that the scrutiny is increasing, there have been reductions in personnel at U.S. government agencies with which we do business. These reductions in personnel, along with the changing political and regulatory environment, has led to a slower procurement environment, with delays in the granting of new contract awards, delays in the processing of payments by government payment offices, as well as increased processing times for security clearances and other governmental consents, each of which could result in negative impacts to our business and financial performance.

At the same time that the scrutiny is increasing, there have been reductions in personnel at U.S. government agencies with which we do business. These reductions in personnel, along with the changing regulatory environment, have led to a slowed procurement environment, with delays in the granting of new contract awards, increased willingness by agencies to not spend government money, delays in the processing of payments by government payment offices, as well as increased processing times for security clearances and other governmental consents. This slowed procurement environment has resulted in a substantial reduction in the ordinary end of government fiscal year funding surge when compared to prior fiscal years and, in the aggregate, has resulted in negative impacts to our business and financial performance.

Previous wording

The President has issued two specific Executive Orders that may cause future changes, the impact of which remains uncertain, that are intended to (i) simplify and accelerate the procurement process through a review and restructuring of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), and its supplements and (ii) modernize defense acquisitions by promoting commercial solutions, innovative acquisition authorities, and other existing streamlined processes. While the impact of these reforms on our business is uncertain, they could potentially lead to changes in the way we interact with the U.S. government. If certain commercial preferences are narrowly defined, these reforms could introduce new barriers that reduce the likelihood of direct award to companies such as Booz Allen.

Current wording

We have observed preparatory steps by the U.S. government to implement two specific executive orders that are intended to (i) simplify and accelerate the procurement process through a review and restructuring of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (“FAR”), and its supplements and (ii) modernize defense acquisitions by promoting commercial solutions, innovative acquisition authorities, and other existing streamlined processes. The FAR Council, the body responsible for issuing and maintaining the FAR, substantially completed Phase 1 of FAR reform efforts at the end of September 2025. The Office of Federal Procurement Policy and FAR Council have solicited feedback on these efforts and will turn next to the formal rulemaking process. Likewise, in early November 2025, the Secretary of War announced and released an associated memorandum regarding a new acquisition strategy and directing certain reforms addressing Department of War purchases of military weapons. The Secretary’s accompanying memorandum and strategy outline a number of actions focused on rebuilding the Defense Industrial Base, elevating and empowering the acquisition workforce, maximizing acquisition flexibility, developing high performance systems, and improving effective lifecycle risk management. While the impact of the aforementioned changes remains uncertain, the new acquisition strategy and streamlined procurement processes have the potential to have positive impacts on our business.

Previous wording

Substantially all of our revenue is derived from services provided under contracts and task orders with the U.S. government, primarily by our customer staff and, to a lesser extent, our subcontractors. Funding for our contracts and task orders is generally linked to trends in budgets and spending across various U.S. government agencies and departments. We provide services under a large portfolio of contracts and contract vehicles to a broad customer base, and we believe that our diversified contract and customer base lessens potential volatility in our business; however, a reduction in the amount of services that we are contracted to provide to the U.S. government or any of our significant non-U.S. government customers could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. In particular, the Department of Defense is one of our significant customers, and the Bipartisan Budget Control Act of 2011 (“BCA”) originally required nine automatic spending cuts (referred to as “sequestration”) of $109 billion annually from 2013 to 2021, half of which was intended to come from defense programs, though less than $1.0 billion has been cut for defense programs per year under the BCA. Mandatory sequestrations under the BCA were subsequently extended by the Bipartisan Budget Acts of 2013, 2015, 2018 and 2019, the Military Retired Pay Restoration Act, the CARES Act and the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. The extension of the mandatory sequestration applies an 8.3% reduction in defense spending in each year from 2021 through 2031. This could result in a commensurate reduction in the amount of services that we are contracted to provide to the Department of Defense and could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations, and given the uncertainty of when and how these automatic reductions required by the BCA may return and/or be applied, we are unable to predict the nature or magnitude of the potential adverse effect.

The amount of risk and potential reward varies under each type of contract. In the aggregate, the contract type mix in our revenue for any given period will affect that period's profitability. Changes in contract type as a result of re-competes and new business could influence the percentage/mix in unanticipated ways. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors—Industry and Economic Risks.”

The amount of risk and potential reward varies under each type of contract. In the aggregate, the contract type mix in our revenue for any given period will affect that period's profitability. As described above in “U.S. Political, Budget and Regulatory Environment,” we expect the recent executive order directing agencies, subject to certain exceptions, to increase usage of fixed-price contract will result in an overall change in our contract type mix over time. Changes in contract type as a result of re-competes and new business could influence the percentage/mix in unanticipated ways. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors—Industry and Economic Risks.”

Previous wording

We generate revenue under our contracts and task orders through our provision of services as both a prime contractor and a subcontractor, as well as from the provision of services by subcontractors under contracts and task orders for which we act as the prime contractor. For each of fiscal 2025, 2024, and 2023, 95% of our revenue was generated by contracts and task orders for which we served as the prime contractor; 5% of our revenue was generated by contracts and task orders for which we served as a subcontractor; and 25% of our revenue was generated by services provided by our subcontractors. The mix of these types of revenue affects our operating margin. Substantially all of our operating margin is derived from direct customer staff labor as the portion of our operating margin derived from fees we earn on services provided by our subcontractors is not significant.

Current wording

We generate revenue under our contracts and task orders through our provision of services as both a prime contractor and a subcontractor, as well as from the provision of services by subcontractors under contracts and task orders for which we act as the prime contractor. As shown in the table below, the majority of our revenue was generated by contracts and task orders for which we served as the prime contractor; and roughly 25% of revenue was generated by services provided by our subcontractors.

•Unfunded Backlog. Unfunded backlog represents the value of orders (including optional orders) for services under existing contracts for which funding has not been appropriated or otherwise authorized.

Current wording

•Unfunded Backlog. Unfunded backlog represents the value of orders (including exercised optional orders) for services under existing contracts for which funding has not been appropriated or otherwise authorized.

Previous wording

Our backlog does not include contracts that have been awarded but are currently under protest and also does not include any task orders under IDIQ contracts, General Services Administration Schedule or other master agreement contract vehicles, except to the extent that task orders have been awarded to us under those contracts.

Current wording

Our backlog does not include contracts that have been awarded but are currently under protest and also does not include any task orders under indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (“IDIQ”) contracts, General Services Administration (“GSA”) Multiple Award schedule contracts (“GSA schedules”) or other master agreement contract vehicles, except to the extent that task orders have been awarded to us under those contracts.

Previous wording

Our total backlog consists of contractual values which is inclusive of remaining performance obligations, unexercised option periods and other unexercised optional orders. Our total backlog reflects retrospective application of the Company’s change in policy during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, to exclude from total backlog, in all periods presented, orders under contracts for which the period of performance has expired. As of March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, the Company had $9.5 billion and $8.7 billion of remaining performance obligations, respectively, and we expect to recognize approximately 65% of the remaining performance obligations as of March 31, 2025 as revenue over the next 12 months, and approximately 70% over the next 24 months. The remainder is expected to be recognized thereafter. However, given the uncertainties discussed below, as well as the risks described in “Item 1A. Risk Factors,” we can give no assurance that we will be able to convert our backlog into revenue in any particular period, if at all. Our backlog includes orders under contracts that in some cases extend for several years. The U.S. Congress generally appropriates funds for our customers on a yearly basis, even though their contracts with us may call for performance that is expected to take a number of years to complete. As a result, contracts typically are only partially funded at any point during their term and all or some of the work to be performed under the contracts may remain unfunded unless and until the U.S. Congress makes subsequent appropriations and the procuring agency allocates funding to the contract.

Current wording

Our total backlog consists of contractual values which is inclusive of remaining performance obligations, and potential contract value from unexercised option periods and other unexercised optional orders. As of March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025, the Company had $10.7 billion and $9.5 billion of remaining performance obligations, respectively, and we expect to recognize approximately 65% of the remaining performance obligations as of March 31, 2026 as revenue over the next 12 months, and approximately 75% over the next 24 months. The remainder is expected to be recognized thereafter. We also expect to recognize revenue from a substantial portion of funded backlog as of March 31, 2026, within the next twelve months. However, given the uncertainties discussed below, as well as the risks described in “Item 1A. Risk Factors,” we can give no assurance that we will be able to convert our backlog into revenue in any particular period, if at all. Our backlog includes orders under contracts that in some cases extend for several years. The U.S. Congress generally appropriates funds for our customers on a yearly basis, even though their contracts with us may call for performance that is expected to take a number of years to complete. As a result, contracts typically are only partially funded at any point during their term and all or some of the work to be performed under the contracts may remain unfunded unless and until the U.S. Congress makes subsequent appropriations and the procuring agency allocates funding to the contract.

Previous wording

We view growth in total backlog as a key measure of our potential business growth. Total backlog increased by 15% from March 31, 2024 to March 31, 2025. Additions to funded backlog during fiscal 2025 and 2024 totaled $12.2 billion and $10.2 billion respectively, as a result of the conversion of unfunded backlog to funded backlog, the award of new contracts and task orders under which funding was appropriated, and the exercise and subsequent funding of priced options. We report internally on our backlog on a monthly basis and review backlog upon occurrence of certain events to determine if any adjustments are necessary.

Current wording

We view growth in total backlog as a key measure of our potential business growth. Total backlog increased by 3% from March 31, 2025 to March 31, 2026. Additions to funded backlog during fiscal 2026 and 2025 totaled $11.1 billion and $12.2 billion respectively, as a result of the conversion of unfunded backlog to funded backlog, the award of new contracts and task orders under which funding was appropriated, and the exercise and subsequent funding of priced options. We report internally on our backlog on a monthly basis and review backlog upon occurrence of certain events to determine if any adjustments are necessary.

Previous wording

We cannot predict with any certainty the portion of our backlog that we expect to recognize as revenue in any future period and we cannot guarantee that we will recognize any revenue from our backlog. The primary risks that could affect our ability to recognize such revenue on a timely basis or at all are: program schedule changes, contract modifications, and our ability to assimilate and deploy new customer staff against funded backlog; cost-cutting initiatives and other efforts to reduce U.S. government spending, which could reduce or delay funding for orders for services; and delayed funding of our contracts due to delays in the completion of the U.S. government's budgeting process and the use of continuing resolutions by the U.S. government to fund its operations. The amount of our funded backlog is also subject to change, due to, among other factors: changes in congressional appropriations that reflect changes in U.S. government policies or priorities resulting from various military, political, economic, or international developments; changes in the use of U.S. government contracting vehicles, and the provisions therein used to procure our services and adjustments to the scope of services, or cancellation of contracts, by the U.S. government at any time. In our recent experience, none of the following additional risks have had a material negative effect on our ability to realize revenue as of March 31, 2025 but could have a material effect in the future: for funded backlog, the unilateral right of the U.S. government to cancel multi-year contracts and related orders or to terminate existing contracts for convenience or default; in the case of unfunded backlog, the potential that funding will not be made available; and, in the case of priced options, the risk that our customers will not exercise their options.

Current wording

We cannot predict with any certainty the portion of our backlog that we expect to recognize as revenue in any future period and we cannot guarantee that we will recognize any revenue from our backlog. The primary risks that could affect our ability to recognize such revenue on a timely basis or at all are: program schedule changes, contract modifications, and our ability to assimilate and deploy new customer staff against funded backlog; cost-cutting initiatives and other efforts to reduce U.S. government spending, which could reduce or delay funding for orders for services; and delayed funding of our contracts due to delays in the completion of the U.S. government's budgeting process and the use of continuing resolutions by the U.S. government to fund its operations. In addition, the amount of our funded backlog is also subject to change due to these factors. In our recent experience, the slowed procurement environment and reductions in contract value have had a negative effect on our ability to convert backlog to revenue as of March 31, 2026, and could have additional impacts in the future to our business and financial performance.

Previous wording

We recognize revenue for each performance obligation identified within our customer contracts when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied by transferring the promised goods or services. On certain contracts, principally time-and-materials and cost-reimbursable-plus-fee contracts, revenue is recognized using the right-to-invoice practical expedient as we are contractually able to invoice the customer based on the control transferred.

Current wording

We perform under various types of contracts, which include cost-reimbursable-plus-fee contracts, time-and-materials contracts, and fixed-price contracts. We recognize revenue for each performance obligation identified within our customer contracts when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied by transferring the promised goods or services.

Previous wording

Costs associated with compensation and related expenses for our people are the most significant component of our operating costs and expenses. The principal factors that affect our costs are additional people as we grow our business and are awarded new contracts, task orders, and additional work under our existing contracts, and the hiring of people with specific skill sets and security clearances as required by our additional work.

Current wording

Cost of revenue includes direct labor, related employee benefits, and overhead. Overhead consists of indirect costs, including indirect labor relating to infrastructure, management and administration, and other expenses. Cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue was 47% and 45%. Cost of revenue decreased 2% to $5,305 million, primarily due to decreases in salaries and related benefits due to overall headcount reductions. The principal factors that affect our costs are the increases or decreases in labor and employee related costs as we are awarded contracts, task orders, and additional work under our existing contracts, and the hiring of people with specific skill sets and security clearances.

Previous wording

Billable expenses increased 15% to $3,780 million, and increased as a percentage of revenue to 32% from 31%. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in the use of subcontractors driven by customer demand and timing of customer needs as well as increases in expenses from contracts that require the Company to incur other direct expenses and travel on behalf of customers as compared to the prior year.

Current wording

Billable expenses include direct subcontractor expenses, travel expenses, and other expenses incurred to perform on contracts. Billable expenses as a percentage of revenue were 31% and 32%. Billable expenses decreased 9% to $3,450 million, primarily attributable to decreases in the use of subcontractors driven by customer demand and timing of customer needs, partially offset by increases in other direct expenses as compared to the prior year.

Previous wording

•General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses include indirect labor of executive management and corporate administrative functions, marketing and bid and proposal costs, and other discretionary spending.

Current wording

General and administrative expenses include indirect labor of executive management and corporate administrative functions, marketing and bid and proposal costs, legal costs, and other discretionary spending. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue was 11% and 10%. General and administrative expenses increased 2% to $1,266 million. The year over year change, which was relatively flat, was primarily related to an insurance recovery of $115 million recognized in general and administrative expenses in fiscal 2025 as described in Note 20, “Commitments and Contingencies,” to the consolidated financial statements contained within the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024, partially offset by decreases in salaries and related benefits, primarily due to overall headcount reductions.

Previous wording

•Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization includes the depreciation of computers, leasehold improvements, furniture and other equipment, and the amortization of internally developed software, as well as third-party software that we use internally, and of identifiable long-lived intangible assets over their estimated useful lives.

Current wording

Depreciation and amortization includes the depreciation of computers, leasehold improvements, furniture and other equipment, and the amortization of internally developed software, as well as third-party software that we use internally, and of identifiable long-lived intangible assets over their estimated useful lives. Depreciation and amortization expense decreased 1% to $163 million.

•An increase of $13 million in bond interest expense related to the $650 million Senior Notes due 2033 (issued August of fiscal 2024)

Current wording

Interest expense, netincreased 10% to $184 million, primarily due to an increase of $37 million in bond interest expense related to the $650 million Senior Notes due 2035 (issued in March of fiscal 2025), partially offset by a decrease in interest expense on the Company’s term loan due to lower rates year over year. In addition, higher cash balances following the bond issuance noted above drove an increase in interest income year over year.

Previous wording

As of March 31, 2025, our total liquidity was $1.9 billion, consisting of $885 million of cash and cash equivalents and $999 million available under the Revolving Credit Facility. In the opinion of management, we will be able to meet our liquidity and cash needs through a combination of cash flows from operating activities, available cash balances, and available borrowing under the Revolving Credit Facility. If these resources need to be augmented, additional cash requirements would likely be financed through the issuance of debt or equity securities.

Current wording

As of March 31, 2026, our total liquidity was $2.2 billion, consisting of $728 million of cash and cash equivalents and $1.5 billion available under the Revolving Credit Facility. In the opinion of management, we will be able to meet our liquidity and cash needs through a combination of cash flows from operating activities, available cash balances, and available borrowing under the Revolving Credit Facility. If these resources need to be augmented, additional cash requirements would likely be financed through the issuance of debt or equity securities.

Previous wording

Historically, we have been able to generate sufficient cash to fund our operations, mandatory debt and interest payments, capital expenditures, and discretionary funding needs. However, due to the trends and developments described above under “—Factors and Trends Affecting Our Results of Operations” relating to U.S. government cost-cutting, reductions or delays in the appropriations and spending process as well as potential shutdowns, it may be necessary to borrow under our Credit Agreement to meet cash demands in the future. While the timing and financial magnitude of these possible actions are currently indeterminable, we expect to be able to manage and adjust our capital structure to meet our liquidity needs. We anticipate that cash provided by operating activities, existing cash and cash equivalents, and borrowing capacity under our Revolving Credit Facility will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash requirements for the next twelve months, which primarily include:

Previous wording

Some of the possible uses of our remaining excess cash at any point in time may include funding strategic acquisitions and investments, further investment in our business, and returning value to stockholders through share repurchases, quarterly dividends, and special dividends.

Current wording

From time to time, we evaluate conditions to opportunistically access the financing markets to secure additional debt capital resources and improve the terms of our indebtedness. Some of the possible uses of our remaining excess cash at any point in time may include funding strategic acquisitions and investments, debt repayment, further investment in our business and returning value to stockholders through share repurchases, quarterly dividends and special dividends.

Previous wording

Net cash used in financing activities was $460 million in fiscal 2025 compared to $19 million in the prior year. The increase in net cash used over the prior year was primarily due to the following:

Current wording

Net cash used in investing activities was $300 million in fiscal 2026 compared to $218 million in the prior year. The increase in net cash used for investing was primarily due to investments in venture and other investment funds, partially offset by acquisition related payments from the Company’s acquisition of PAR Government Systems Corporation in the prior year.

Current wording

Net cash used in financing activities was $898 million in fiscal 2026 compared to $460 million in the prior year. The increase in net cash used over the prior year was primarily due to no new debt being issued in fiscal 2026, while fiscal 2025 included net proceeds of $644 million associated with the Company’s issuance of its 5.95% Senior Notes due 2035, an increase in dividends paid of $8 million, partially offset by a decrease in share repurchases of $214 million.

Previous wording

Our stockholders’ equity totaled $1,003 million as of March 31, 2025, a decrease of $44 million compared to stockholders’ equity of $1,047 million as of March 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to $804 million in treasury stock resulting from the repurchase of shares of our Class A Common Stock and $269 million in aggregate quarterly dividend payments, partially offset by net income of $935 million and stock-based compensation expense of $94 million.

Current wording

Our stockholders’ equity totaled $1,105 million as of March 31, 2026, an increase of $102 million compared to stockholders’ equity of $1,003 million as of March 31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to net income of $851 million and stock-based compensation expense of $69 million, partially offset by $591 million in treasury stock resulting from the repurchase of shares of our Class A Common Stock and $277 million in aggregate quarterly dividend payments.

Previous wording

The Company paid $2.08 in dividends per share to stockholders of record in fiscal 2025. On May 23, 2025, the Company announced a regular quarterly cash dividend in the amount of $0.55 per share. The quarterly dividend is payable on June 27, 2025 to stockholders of record on June 11, 2025.

As discussed in Note 19 and 20, “Commitments and Contingencies,” to the consolidated financial statements contained within our Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, the Company recognized a reserve for estimated adjustments to historical claimed costs in respect of the years subsequent to fiscal 2011, based primarily on historical audit results. Following the settlement and closure of the civil and criminal investigation, respectively, of the Company by the DOJ, audits for years subsequent to fiscal 2011 have resumed and remain subject to audit and/or final resolution. As audits of the periods subsequent to 2011 are completed, our estimates of adjustment to claimed costs for these periods could change. Any such change could materially impact our reported revenue, operating income, net income and basic and diluted earnings per common share.
