Current report
On October 1, 2025, a lapse in government fiscal year 2026 appropriations occurred, and the U.S. government entered a shutdown. At this time, it is unclear if the government will be funded by one or more Continuing Resolutions (“CR”) or by a full year appropriations act. Federal agencies have published shutdown guidance, including the DoD, which has furloughed civilian positions and restricted activities in the absence of enacted funding. Active duty pay remains intact, but that is subject to review going forward. If the U.S. government shutdown is protracted, it could have programmatic and funding impacts on our business. Delayed billing, testing and prohibitions on new contract awards, as well as resourcing delays by federal workers, could lead to a material effect on our operations and financial position.
Current report
IMS segment revenue increased by $98 million, or 34.4%, to $383 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from $285 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, which is attributed to increased revenue generated from our force protection programs, highlighted by our efforts in counter drone capabilities.
Current report
For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, bookings increased by $247 million, or 26.9%, from the nine months ended September 30, 2024 to $1,166 million. The increase for the nine months ended is largely attributed to funding received for the counter drone and short range air defense efforts within our force protection business coupled with continued demand across our naval power portfolio.

Previous report
In March 2025, Congress passed a full-year Continuing Resolution (“CR”) to fund the government through the end of fiscal year (“FY”) 2025. The CR authorizes slightly higher spending than FY 2024 levels for defense and allows significant flexibility in how the DoD funds its priorities. This full-year CR prevented a U.S. government shutdown in FY 2025. However, the extended CR and its flexibility has the potential to impact program funding and as a consequence, results of operations including, but not limited to, program cancellations, schedule delays, production halts and other disruptions. Additionally, the current U.S. administration has discussed various changes to defense spending levels ranging from across-the-board percentage cuts, to a change in spending allocations in favor of new priorities, and potential increases in the top-line spending profile. It remains unclear whether and to what extent the DoD’s budget may change and, if it does, to what extent our business, financial condition and results of operations may be affected.
Previous report
16.8% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, compared to 19.1% and 20.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively.
Previous report
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, bookings decreased by $31 million, or 9.5%, from the three months ended June 30, 2024 to $294 million. The decrease for the three months ended is largely attributed to accelerated funding received for the next tranche of the Columbia Class program in the first quarter of 2025.

Previous wording
Operating earnings was consistent for the three months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024 despite the increased revenue. This drove operating margin to 6.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the 7.5% realized during the three months ended June 30, 2024. The operating margin decrease is primarily attributed to increased investment in internal research and development efforts during the period.
Current wording
Operating earnings was consistent for the three months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024 despite the increased revenue.

Previous wording
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, bookings decreased $57 million, or 9.3%, from the three months ended June 30, 2024 to $559 million. The decrease in bookings is largely attributed to the timing of certain dismounted soldier and ground vehicle awards received in the prior year.
Current wording
For the three months ended September 30, 2025, bookings increased $72 million, or 10.5%, from the three months ended September 30, 2024 to $757 million. The increase in bookings is largely attributed to certain dismounted soldier and airborne sensing programs received during the period.
Previous wording
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, bookings increased $25 million, or 2.1%, from the six months ended June 30, 2024 to $1,228 million. The increase in new awards is largely attributed to bookings received for ground vehicle and tactical radar programs. This was partially offset by a reduction in new awards received for tactical computing programs.
Current wording
For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, bookings increased $97 million, or 5.1%, from the nine months ended September 30, 2024 to $1,985 million. The increase in new awards is largely attributed to bookings received for ground vehicle and tactical radar sensor programs coupled with additional awards received for pilot training and force protection efforts. This was partially offset by a reduction in new awards received for tactical computing and dismounted soldier sensing programs.
