Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

Overview

Separation from Parent

Science Applications International Corporation commenced operations on September 27, 2013 (the Distribution Date) following completion of a spin-off transaction from its former parent company, Leidos Holdings, Inc. (formerly SAIC, Inc.) (collectively with its consolidated subsidiaries, “former Parent”). In the spin-off transaction, the former Parent’s technical, engineering and enterprise information technology (IT) services business was separated into an independent, publicly traded company named Science Applications International Corporation (formerly SAIC Gemini, Inc.) (collectively, with its consolidated subsidiaries, the “Company”).

To effect the spin-off transaction, the Company’s common stock was distributed on the Distribution Date to former Parent stockholders of record on a pro-rata basis with each former Parent stockholder receiving one share of the Company’s common stock for every seven shares of former Parent common stock. The Company’s Registration Statement on Form 10 relating to the spin-off transaction was declared effective with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 10, 2013. The Company’s common stock began trading on the New York Stock Exchange on September 30, 2013 under the symbol “SAIC.” In connection with the separation, the Company obtained debt, paid a dividend to former Parent and received a capital contribution from former Parent. For additional details see Note 4 – Related Party Transactions and Parent Company Investment.

In order to govern certain ongoing relationships between the Company and former Parent following the separation and to provide mechanisms for an orderly transition, the companies executed various agreements that govern the separation. The agreements include the Distribution Agreement, Employee Matters Agreement, Tax Matters Agreement, Master Transition Services Agreement, and Master Transitional Contracting Agreement (MTCA). These agreements generally provide that each party is responsible for its respective assets, liabilities and obligations, including employee benefits, insurance and tax related assets and liabilities. Contingent losses that were unknown at the time of separation and arise from the operation of the Company’s historical business or the former Parent’s corporate losses will be shared between the parties to the extent that losses in any such category exceed $50 million in the aggregate. If they arise and exceed the $50 million threshold, the Company will be responsible for 30% of the former Parent’s incremental contingent losses on corporate claims (and former Parent will be responsible for 70% of the Company’s incremental losses on claims relating to operations that exceed $50 million).

In accordance with the MTCA, former Parent agreed to seek the U.S. Government’s approval to novate all of the contracts with the U.S. Government under which the Company primarily is obligated to fulfill the remaining terms. Under the terms of the MTCA, former Parent is obligated to remit to the Company all proceeds it receives for work performed by the Company until novation occurs, after which the Company may directly bill and collect from the U.S. Government. The MTCA also governs the relationship between the Company and former Parent pending novation and assignment of contracts to the Company and addresses the treatment of existing contracts, proposals, and teaming arrangements where both companies will jointly perform work after separation. Each of the Company and former Parent indemnify the other party for work performed by it under the MTCA.

Description of Business

The Company is a leading provider of technical, engineering and enterprise IT services to the U.S. Government. The Company delivers to the Department of Defense (DoD) and federal civilian agencies systems engineering and integration services for large, complex government projects and offers a broad range of services with a targeted emphasis on higher-end, differentiated technology services.

The Company operates in two segments, which provide comprehensive service offerings across its entire customer base. The Company’s technical and engineering offerings include engineering and maintenance of ground and maritime systems, logistics, training and simulation, as well as operation and program support services. The Company’s enterprise IT offerings include end-to-end enterprise IT services which span the design, development, integration, deployment, management and operations, sustainment and security of its customers’ entire IT infrastructure. As discussed in Note 9 – Business Segment Information, these segments have been aggregated into one reporting segment for financial reporting purposes.

Principles of Combination and Basis of Presentation

Prior to the separation on September 27, 2013, the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows consisted of the technical, engineering and enterprise IT services businesses of former Parent, which represented a combined reporting entity. The assets and liabilities in the Company’s condensed combined balance sheet at January 31, 2013 have been reflected on a historical basis, as immediately prior to the separation all of the assets and liabilities presented were wholly owned by former Parent.

The Company’s unaudited condensed combined statements of income and comprehensive income, and cash flows for the periods ended October 31, 2012 and the Company’s unaudited condensed combined balance sheet at January 31, 2013 consist entirely of the combined results of the technical, engineering and enterprise IT services businesses of former Parent.

Subsequent to the separation, the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated and combined statements of income and comprehensive income, and cash flows for the periods ended November 1, 2013 consist of both the combined results of the technical, engineering and enterprise IT services businesses of former Parent through the Distribution Date and the Company’s consolidated results subsequent to the Distribution Date. The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated and combined balance sheet at November 1, 2013 consists of the Company’s consolidated balances.

References to “financial statements” refer to the unaudited condensed consolidated and combined financial statements of the Company, which include the statements of income and comprehensive income, balance sheets, statement of equity and statements of cash flows.

These financial statements of the Company were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). All intercompany transactions and account balances within the Company have been eliminated. The accompanying financial information has been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the combined financial statements and combined notes thereto included in the Company’s Registration Statement on Form 10.

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingencies at the date of the unaudited financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Estimates have been prepared by management on the basis of the most current and best available information at the time of estimation and actual results could differ from those estimates.

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other amounts included in other current assets and current liabilities that meet the definition of a financial instrument approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these amounts. The fair value of the Company’s outstanding debt obligations approximates its carrying value.

The financial statements are unaudited, but in the opinion of management include all adjustments, which consist of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation thereof. The interim financial results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2014, or any future period.

Reporting Periods

Unless otherwise noted, references to fiscal years are to fiscal years ended January 31 (for fiscal 2013 and earlier periods), or fiscal years ended the Friday closest to January 31 (for fiscal 2014 and later periods). For fiscal 2013, the Company’s fiscal quarters ended on the last calendar day of each of April, July and October. Effective in fiscal 2014, the Company changed its fiscal year to a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Friday closest to January 31, with fiscal quarters typically consisting of 13 weeks. Fiscal 2014 began on February 1, 2013 and ends on January 31, 2014. The third quarter of fiscal 2014 ended on November 1, 2013. The Company does not believe that the change in its fiscal year has a material effect on the comparability of the periods presented.

Corporate Allocations

Pre-Separation. The statements of income and comprehensive income reflect allocations of general corporate expenses from former Parent including, but not limited to, costs associated with executive management, finance, legal, IT, human resources, employee benefits administration, treasury, risk management, procurement, and other shared services.

SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED AND COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 


 

The allocations were made on a direct usage basis when identifiable, with the remainder allocated on the basis of costs incurred, headcount or other appropriate measures. Management of the Company considers these allocations to be a reasonable reflection of the utilization of services by, or the benefits provided to the Company. The allocations may not, however, reflect the expense the Company would have incurred as a stand-alone company prior to the separation. Actual costs that may have been incurred if the Company had been a stand-alone company would depend on a number of factors, including the chosen organizational structure, what functions were outsourced or performed by employees and strategic decisions made in areas such as IT and infrastructure.

The balance sheet of the Company as of January 31, 2013 includes former Parent assets and liabilities that are specifically identifiable or otherwise attributable to the Company. Former Parent’s cash, excluding a minor balance specifically attributable to the Company, has not been assigned to the Company for any of the periods prior to separation because those cash balances are not directly attributable to the Company nor did the Company have a contractual right to acquire that cash in connection with the separation. At separation, former Parent transferred $26 million in cash to the Company, which represents cash generated by the operations of the Company during the period from the initial target separation date to the actual separation date. Former Parent’s senior unsecured notes, and the related interest expense, have not been attributed to the Company for any of the periods presented because former Parent’s borrowings and the related guarantees on such borrowings are not directly attributable to the combined businesses that comprise the Company. The Company did not assume any of former Parent’s borrowings or the related guarantees upon completion of the separation.

Former Parent has historically used a centralized approach to cash management and financing of its operations. Transactions between the Company and former Parent are considered to be effectively settled for cash at the time the transaction is recorded. The net effect of these transactions is included in the statements of cash flows as Net transfers to former Parent.

Post-Separation. Following the separation from former Parent, the Company performs functions that were previously performed by former Parent using internal resources and purchased services, some of which may be provided by former Parent during a transitional period pursuant to the Master Transition Services Agreement.

Receivables

The Company’s accounts receivable include unbilled receivables, which consist of costs and fees billable upon contract completion or the occurrence of a specified event, substantially all of which is expected to be billed and collected within one year. Unbilled receivables are stated at estimated realizable value. Since the Company’s receivables are primarily with the U.S. Government, the Company does not have a material credit risk exposure. Contract retentions are billed when the Company has negotiated final indirect rates with the U.S. Government and, once billed, are subject to audit and approval by government representatives. Based on the Company’s historical experience, the majority of retention balances are expected to be collected beyond one year and uncollectible retention balances have not been significant. Contract claims are anticipated additional costs incurred but not provided for in the executed contract price that the Company seeks to recover from the customer. Such costs are expensed as incurred. Additional revenue related to contract claims is recognized when the amounts are awarded by the customer.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

The Company evaluates goodwill for potential impairment annually at the beginning of the fourth quarter, or whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable. The goodwill impairment test is a two-step process performed at the reporting unit level. The Company’s reporting units are its two operating segments, technical and engineering services and enterprise IT. The first step consists of estimating the fair values of each of the reporting units based on a market approach. Fair value computed using this method is determined using a number of factors, including projected future operating results and business plans, economic projections, anticipated future cash flows, comparable market data based on industry grouping, and the cost of capital. The estimated fair values are compared with the carrying values of the reporting units. If the fair value is less than the carrying value of a reporting unit, which includes the allocated goodwill, a second step is performed to compute the amount of the impairment by determining an implied fair value of goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is the residual fair value derived by deducting the fair value of a reporting unit’s identifiable assets and liabilities from its estimated fair value calculated in the first step. The impairment expense represents the excess of the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill over the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill.

The Company faces uncertainty in its business environment due to the substantial fiscal and economic challenges facing the U.S. Government, its primary customer. Adverse changes, such as the manner in which budget cuts are implemented, including sequestration, and issues related to the nation’s debt ceiling, could negatively impact the Company’s expected future operating results and result in an impairment of goodwill.

Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized using the method that best reflects how their economic benefits are utilized or, if a pattern of economic benefits cannot be reliably determined, on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Intangible assets with finite lives are assessed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

Former Parent Company Investment

Former Parent company investment represents former Parent’s historical investment in the Company, the net effect of cost allocations from transactions with former Parent, net transfers of cash and assets between the Company and former Parent and the Company’s accumulated earnings. See Note 4 – Related Party Transactions and Parent Company Investment for a further description of the transactions between the Company and former Parent.

Separation transaction and restructuring expense

   $ 23       $ 11      $ 57       $ 15   

In connection with the separation transaction, the Company obtained strategic advisory services, investment banking services, and legal and accounting services. The Company also reduced headcount in preparation for the separation, which resulted in severance costs. As of November 1, 2013 the Company has expensed substantially all costs associated with announced severance plans. Also, the Company took actions to reduce its real estate footprint by vacating facilities that were not necessary for its future requirements, which resulted in lease termination and facility consolidation expenses.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company issues stock-based awards, including stock options and vesting stock awards, as compensation to employees and directors. These awards are accounted for as equity awards. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense net of estimated forfeitures on a straight-line basis over the underlying award’s requisite service period, as measured using the award’s grant date fair value. The Company estimates forfeitures using former Parent’s historical data. As discussed in Note 5 – Stock-Based Compensation, at separation all former Parent stock-based awards held by Company employees were converted into awards of the stock-based compensation plans sponsored by the Company.

Derivative Instruments Designated as Cash flow Hedges

The Company uses fixed interest rate swaps to manage risks associated with interest rate fluctuations on its floating rate debt. The Company is party to fixed interest rate swap instruments that have been designated and accounted for as cash flow hedges. Derivative instruments are recorded on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are reported in other comprehensive (loss) income and reclassified to earnings in a manner that matches the timing of the earnings impact of the hedged transactions. The ineffective portion of all hedges, if any, is recognized immediately in earnings.

The Company’s fixed interest rate swaps are considered over-the-counter derivatives, and fair value is calculated using a standard pricing model for interest rate swaps with contractual terms for maturities, amortization and interest rates. Level 2, or market observable inputs, such as yield and credit curves are used within the standard pricing models in order to determine fair value. The fair value is an estimate of the amount that the Company would pay or receive as of a measurement date, if the agreements were transferred to a third party or cancelled.

Changes in Estimates on Contracts

Changes in estimates related to contracts accounted for using the cost-to-cost percentage of completion method of accounting are recognized in the period in which such changes are made for the inception-to-date effect of the changes. Changes in these estimates can routinely occur over the contract performance period for a variety of reasons, including changes in contract scope, changes in contract cost estimates due to unanticipated cost growth or retirements of risk for amounts different than estimated, and changes in estimated incentive or award fees. Aggregate changes in contract estimates increased operating income by $1 million for the three months ended November 1, 2013, reduced operating income by $7 million for the nine months ended November 1, 2013, and increased operating income by $2 million for the three months ended October 31, 2012. There was no impact to operating income for the nine months ended October 31, 2012.

Accounting Standards Updates Issued But Not Yet Adopted

Accounting standards and updates issued but not effective for the Company until after November 1, 2013, are not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Note 2—Earnings Per Share (EPS):

Basic EPS is computed by dividing income by the basic weighted average number of shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed similarly to basic EPS, except the weighted average number of shares outstanding is increased to include the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options and other stock-based awards.

For periods prior to the separation, basic and diluted EPS were calculated using 49 million shares of the Company’s common stock that were distributed to former Parent shareholders upon separation. The weighted average number of shares outstanding for diluted EPS for the periods prior to separation also include 1 million of diluted common share equivalents for stock options and other stock-based awards (consistent with the number calculated for the quarter ended November 1, 2013) as these stock-based awards were previously issued by former Parent and outstanding at the time of separation and were assumed by the Company following the separation.

A reconciliation of the weighted average number of shares outstanding used to compute basic and diluted EPS for the periods presented was as follows:

Note 4—Related Party Transactions and Parent Company Investment:

Pre-Separation

Allocation of Corporate Expenses. The statements of income and comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2012 and through September 27, 2013, the date of the separation, reflect an allocation of general corporate expenses from former Parent. These costs are allocated to the Company systematically utilizing a direct usage basis when identifiable, with the remainder allocated on the basis of costs incurred, headcount or other appropriate measures.

Allocations for general corporate expenses, including management costs and corporate support services provided to the Company totaled $23 million and $104 million for the three and nine months ended November 1, 2013, respectively, and $58 million and $130 million for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2012, respectively. These amounts include costs for executive management, finance, legal, IT, human resources, employee benefits administration, treasury, risk management, procurement and other shared services.

Revenues and Cost of Revenues Performed by former Parent. The Company historically was a party to customer transactions in which the services were partially performed by former Parent. These transactions were recorded at zero margin to reflect that no profit will be charged to the customer for work performed by former Parent and are presented separately in the statements of income and comprehensive income.

Net Transfers of Plant, Property, and Equipment from former Parent. In connection with the separation, former Parent transferred to the Company certain equipment necessary to operate its internal IT systems.

Post-Separation

Allocation of Corporate Expenses. In connection with the separation, the Company entered into the Master Transition Services Agreement with former Parent, under which both parties will provide certain services for a limited time to ensure an orderly transition following the separation. The Company performs functions that were previously performed by former Parent using internal resources and purchased services, some of which may be provided by former Parent during a transitional period pursuant to the Master Transition Services Agreement. Subsequent to separation, the Company provided certain IT and telecommunications services to former Parent in the amount of $1 million for the period ended November 1, 2013.

Revenues and Cost of Revenues Performed by former Parent. The Company will continue to be a party to customer transactions in which the services are partially performed by former Parent. As the Company will not charge additional profit to the customer for work performed by former Parent, these transactions are recorded at revenue equal to cost and are presented separately in the statements of income and comprehensive income.

Dividend to former Parent. In connection with the separation, the Company paid a cash dividend to former Parent in the amount of $295 million.

Capital Contribution from former Parent. In connection with the separation, former Parent made a capital contribution to the Company in the amount of $26 million.

Net Transfers to Former Parent

A reconciliation of Net transfers to former Parent in the condensed consolidated and combined statement of equity to the corresponding amount presented on the condensed consolidated and combined statements of cash flows for the period presented is as follows:

Note 5—Stock-Based Compensation:

2013 Equity Incentive Plan . In connection with the separation, the Company adopted the following stock-based compensation plans: the “2013 Equity Incentive Plan,” the “Management Compensation Plan,” the “Stock Compensation Plan,” and the “Employee Stock Purchase Plan” (ESPP) or referred to together as the “Plans.” The Plans permit the Company to grant stock options, vesting stock awards and performance-based stock awards to employees and directors.

At separation, all unvested stock awards and all outstanding stock options held by the Company’s employees and directors under the former Parent’s Plans converted into awards under the Company’s Plans (referred to as “separation adjustments” in the activity tables below). This conversion was designed to maintain the same intrinsic value of the awards immediately before and after the separation. The converted awards have substantially the same terms and conditions as immediately before the separation under the former Parent’s Plans. Unrecognized compensation expense as of the separation date related to the converted awards will be recognized by the Company over the remaining vesting periods of the awards.

Stock-Based Compensation. Prior to the separation, certain Company employees and directors participated in stock-based compensation plans sponsored by former Parent that were denominated in former Parent’s common shares. Since the Company’s employees directly benefited from participation in these plans and former Parent’s corporate employees receiving such awards provided management and corporate support services to the Company, stock-based compensation expense was allocated to the Company in accordance with former Parent’s disclosure statements under U.S. Government Cost Accounting Standards or another systematic basis.

The following table summarizes stock-based compensation expense recognized during the three and nine month periods ended November 1, 2013 and October 31, 2012:

Stock Options . Stock options generally vest over a four year graded vesting schedule and have a seven year term. Stock options are granted with their exercise price equal to the fair market value of common stock on the date of grant, except for those options outstanding as of September 27, 2013, for which the exercise prices (and number of stock options) were adjusted for the conversion at separation.

(b) Transfers from Parent, net represent the awards of those employees that transferred between the Company and former Parent prior to the separation.

The fair value of stock option awards granted prior to the separation under the former Parent’s Plan were valued using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model based on the following assumptions:

Expected Term —The expected term is derived from former Parent’s historical experience.

Expected Volatility —The expected volatility is based on an average of the historical volatility of former Parent’s common stock and the implied volatility from traded options on former Parent’s common stock.

Risk-Free Interest Rate —The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield curve of a zero-coupon U.S. Treasury bond with a maturity equal to the expected term of the stock option on the date of grant.

Dividend Yield —The dividend yield is based on former Parent’s historical dividend yield level.

The fair value of stock option awards granted subsequent to the separation under the Company’s Plan were valued using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model based on the following assumptions:

Expected Term —The expected term is calculated using the SEC “simplified method” as the midpoint between the vesting term and contractual term.

Expected Volatility —The expected volatility is based on a leverage-adjusted daily average volatility of its peer group companies over a period consistent with the expected term. Peer group companies were selected from companies within SAIC’s industry that most closely match the Company’s business, including size, capital structure, and customer base.

Risk-Free Interest Rate —The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield curve of a zero-coupon U.S. Treasury bond with a maturity equal to the expected term of the stock option on the date of grant.

Dividend Yield —The dividend yield assumed over the expected term of the option is based on the announced dividend as of the grant date and the three month average stock price as of the grant date (to the extent available).

(a) The weighted average grant date fair values of stock options granted by former Parent prior to June 12, 2013, were adjusted to reflect former Parent’s stock option modification for the $1.00 special dividend. The modification decreased the per share grant date fair value but increased the number of stock options held by the option-holder to preserve the value of the options immediately before and after the $1.00 special dividend. There was no incremental compensation expense resulting from this modification.

 

(b) The weighted average grant date fair values of stock options granted by former Parent prior to the separation date were adjusted for the separation conversion on September 27, 2013.

(b) Transfers from Parent, net represent the awards of those employees that transferred between the Company and former Parent prior to the separation.

Note 6—Income Taxes:

Pre-Separation. The Company’s operations have historically been included in former Parent’s U.S. federal and state income tax returns and all income taxes have been paid by former Parent. Income taxes are presented in these financial statements on a separate tax return basis as if the Company filed its own tax returns. Income tax liabilities through the date of separation are assumed to be immediately settled with former Parent against the former Parent company investment account.

Post-Separation. Subsequent to the separation, the Company will file income tax returns in the federal, state, local, and foreign jurisdictions as a separate public company and is subject to routine compliance reviews by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and other taxing authorities.

At November 1, 2013, the Company had uncertain tax positions of $24 million, all of which are netted against the related current deferred tax assets. While the Company believes it has adequate accruals for uncertain tax positions, the tax authorities may determine that the Company owes taxes in excess of recorded accruals, or the recorded accruals may be in excess of the final settlement amounts agreed to by tax authorities.

Provision for income taxes as a percentage of income before income taxes was 35.5 percent for the nine months ended November 1, 2013 and 36.8 percent for the nine months ended October 31, 2012. Tax rates for both periods are lower than the combined federal and state statutory rates due to research and developmental tax credits, tax deductibility of dividends paid on shares held by retirement plans (employee stock ownership plans) and other permanent book versus tax differences.

           $ 495       $ 1   

The fair value of the Company’s outstanding long-term debt obligations approximates their carrying value.

Credit Facilities. On June 27, 2013, the Company entered into a $700 million credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) among the Company, as borrower, former Parent, as guarantor and Citibank, N.A. (“Citibank”), as administrative agent. The Credit Agreement consists of (i) a five-year unsecured revolving credit facility in an initial aggregate borrowing capacity of $200 million (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) and (ii) a five-year unsecured term facility with an initial aggregate principal amount of $500 million (the “Term Loan Facility” and, together with the Revolving Credit Facility, the “Credit Facilities”). Borrowings under the Credit Facilities will bear interest at a variable rate of interest based on 1-month LIBOR (or, in the case of borrowings in euro, EURIBOR) or Citibank’s base rate. Interest rate margins with respect to borrowings under the Credit Agreement range from 1.50% to 2.75% for LIBOR or EURIBOR loans and 0.50% to 1.75%, for base rate loans. The Company also pays a commitment fee with respect to undrawn amounts under the Revolving Credit Facility ranging from 0.25% to 0.50%. The margin and commitment fees will vary based on the Company’s leverage ratio.

On September 26, 2013 the Company met the conditions precedent to borrow funds under the Term Loan Facility and drew $500 million. A portion of the borrowings were used to pay a cash dividend to former Parent in the amount of $295 million. The Revolving Credit Facility capacity is available to the Company but no draws have been made.

The Term Loan Facility will amortize beginning at 1.25% of the borrowed amount on October 31, 2014, with additional quarterly amortization payments increasing up to 2.50% on October 31, 2016. Borrowings under the Credit Facilities must be repaid in full on September 26, 2018.

The Company incurred debt issuance costs of approximately $5 million, which were allocated to each debt facility based on their relative borrowing capacity. Debt issuance costs allocated to the Revolving Credit Facility are amortized through interest expense on a straight-line basis over the five year access period. Debt issuance costs allocated to the Term Loan Facility are amortized using the effective interest rate method over the life of the Term Loan Facility.

The Credit Agreement contains certain restrictive covenants applicable to the Company and its subsidiaries, which include limitations on: liens; mergers and consolidations; changes in accounting principles; changes in nature of business; hedging agreements; sale and lease-back transactions; subsidiary indebtedness; dividends and issuances of capital stock; negative pledges; and transactions with affiliates.

The Credit Agreement also includes certain financial covenants, which require the maintenance of a Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of not greater than 3.25:1.00 and an Interest Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of at least 3.50:1.00.

The Credit Agreement also contains certain customary events of default, including, among others, defaults based on certain bankruptcy and insolvency events, nonpayment, cross-defaults to other debt, breach of specified covenants, ERISA events, material monetary judgments, change of control events and the material inaccuracy of the Company’s representations and warranties. If an event of default occurs and is continuing under the Credit Facilities, the Credit Agreement provides that the administrative agent shall at the request, or may with the consent, of the required lenders, terminate the commitments thereunder, declare amounts outstanding, including principal and accrued interest and fees, payable immediately, and enforce any and all rights and interests.

As of November 1, 2013, the Company was in compliance with the covenants under the Credit Facilities.

Note 8—Derivative Instruments:

On September 26, 2013, in accordance with the Company’s risk management objectives, the Company entered into fixed interest rate swap agreements that aggregate to the same notional amount and tenor as the Term Loan Facility. These instruments are used to hedge the variability in interest payment cash flows caused by changes in the 1 month LIBOR benchmark interest rate on the floating rate Term Loan Facility and are accounted for as cash flow hedges. Under the swap agreements, the Company pays a fixed rate of 1.41% and the counterparties to the agreement pay a floating interest rate based on 1 month LIBOR, for which measurement and settlement is performed monthly. The counterparties to these agreements are financial institutions.

As of November 1, 2013, the fair value of the fixed interest rate swaps was $3 million, which is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The effective portion of the unrealized change in fair value of these cash flow hedges for the three and nine months ended November 1, 2013 was a loss of $2 million, net of tax benefit, which was reported in other comprehensive loss, net of tax. There was no ineffectiveness for the period.

Note 9—Business Segment Information:

The Company defines its operating segments based on the way the chief operating decision maker, currently its chief executive officer, manages the operations of the Company for purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance. The Company has two operating segments, technical and engineering services and enterprise IT, that are aggregated into one reporting segment because they have similar economic characteristics and meet the other aggregation criteria within the accounting standard on segment reporting, including similarities in the nature of the services provided, methods of service delivery, customers served and the regulatory environment in which they operate.

Substantially all of the Company’s revenues and tangible long-lived assets are generated by or owned by entities located in the United States. As such, financial information by geographic location is not presented. The Company’s total revenues are largely attributable to prime contracts with the U.S. Government or to subcontracts with other contractors engaged in work for the U.S. Government.

Note 10—Legal Proceedings:

Timekeeping Contract with City of New York

In March 2012, in connection with the resolution of certain investigations related to an automated time and attendance and workforce management system (CityTime) that former Parent developed and implemented for certain New York City agencies, former Parent entered into a three year deferred prosecution agreement (DPA) with the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York. Under the terms of the DPA, the U.S. Attorney’s Office deferred prosecution of a single criminal count against former Parent, and will dismiss the criminal count at the end of a three year period if former Parent complies with the terms of the DPA. Under the DPA, former Parent agreed, among other things, to retain an independent monitor who will report periodically to the U.S. Attorney’s Office and who will have broad authority to monitor and make recommendations on a number of former Parent’s policies and practices. The Company is not subject to the criminal count and the agreement to defer prosecution under the DPA. However, the Company will comply with applicable provisions of the DPA, including retaining an independent monitor and related reporting obligations.

On August 21, 2012, former Parent entered into an administrative agreement with the U.S. Army on behalf of all agencies of the U.S. Government that confirms its continuing eligibility to enter into and perform contracts with the U.S. Government. Under the terms of the administrative agreement, former Parent has agreed, among other things, to maintain a contractor responsibility program having the specific elements described in the administrative agreement, including retaining a monitor and providing certain reports to the Army. The administrative agreement will continue in effect for five years, provided that former Parent may request earlier termination following completion of three years. The Company notified the U.S. Army that it will comply with the obligations set forth in the administrative agreement following the separation. These obligations include retaining an independent monitor and maintaining a similar contractor responsibility program.

Other

The Company is also involved in various claims and lawsuits arising in the normal conduct of its business, none of which, in the opinion of the Company’s management, based upon current information, will likely have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Note 11—Other Commitments and Contingencies:

Government Investigations

The Company is routinely subject to investigations and reviews relating to compliance with various laws and regulations with respect to its role as a contractor to federal, state and local government customers and in connection with performing services in countries outside of the United States. Adverse findings in these investigations or reviews can lead to criminal, civil or administrative proceedings, and the Company could face penalties, fines, compensatory damages and suspension or debarment from doing business with governmental agencies. Adverse findings could also have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows due to its reliance on government contracts.

U.S. Regulatory Investigations and Reviews

U.S. Government agencies, including the Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA), Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) and others, routinely audit and review a contractor’s performance on government contracts, indirect rates and pricing practices, and compliance with applicable contracting and procurement laws, regulations and standards. They also review the adequacy of the contractor’s compliance with government standards for its business systems, including a contractor’s accounting system, earned value management system, estimating system, materials management system, property management system and purchasing system. A finding of significant control deficiencies in a contractor’s business systems or a finding of noncompliance with U.S. Government Cost Accounting Standards can result in decremented billing rates to U.S. Government customers until the control deficiencies are corrected and their remediation is accepted by the DCMA.

Pursuant to the Distribution Agreement with former Parent and upon the separation date, the former Parent’s recorded liability of $45 million was allocated to the Company in the amount of $18 million and former Parent in the amount of $27 million. This liability represents estimated net amounts to be refunded to customers for potential adjustments for indirect cost audits for fiscal 2006 through 2013. Subsequent to the separation date, any amounts owed in addition to the $45 million liability for periods prior to the separation date will be allocated to former Parent and the Company in proportions determined in accordance with the Distribution Agreement.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations and quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated and combined financial statements and the related notes. The financial information discussed below and included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may not necessarily reflect what our financial condition, results of operations or cash flow would have been had we been a stand-alone company during the periods presented or what our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows may be in the future.

The following discussion contains forward-looking statements, including statements regarding our intent, belief, or current expectations with respect to, among other things, trends affecting our financial condition or results of operations, backlog, our industry, government budgets and spending and the impact of competition. Words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “likely,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “projects,” “believes,” “estimates,” “positioned,” “outlook” and similar expressions are used to identify these forward-looking statements. Such statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties and actual results may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed below and in the Information Statement included as Exhibit 99.1 to our Registration Statement on Form 10, as amended, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on September 9, 2013 (the “Information Statement”), particularly under the headings “Risk Factors” and “Special Note About Forward-Looking Statements.” Due to such uncertainties and risks, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. We do not undertake any obligation to update these factors or to publicly announce the results of any changes to our forward-looking statements due to future results or developments.

We use the terms “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” to refer to both (1) Science Applications International Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries for time periods after the separation and (2) the technical, engineering and enterprise IT services businesses of former Parent, which were contributed to Science Applications International Corporation as part of the separation, for time periods prior to the separation. References herein to “former Parent” refer to Leidos Holdings, Inc. (formerly SAIC, Inc.), collectively with its consolidated subsidiaries.

Unless otherwise noted, references to fiscal years are to fiscal years ended January 31 (for fiscal 2013 and earlier periods) or fiscal years ending the Friday closest to January 31 (for fiscal 2014 and later periods). For example, we refer to the fiscal year ending January 31, 2014 as “fiscal 2014.” Effective in fiscal 2014, we changed our fiscal year to a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Friday closest to January 31, with fiscal quarters typically consisting of 13 weeks and ending on the Friday closest to April 30, July 31, and October 31.

Overview

We are a leading provider of technical, engineering and enterprise IT services to the U.S. Government. We deliver to the Department of Defense (DoD) and federal civilian agencies systems engineering and integration offerings for large, complex government projects and offer a broad range of services with a targeted emphasis on higher-end, differentiated technology services.

We operate in two operating segments that provide comprehensive service offerings across our entire customer base. Our technical and engineering offerings include engineering and maintenance of ground and maritime systems, logistics, training and simulation, as well as operation and program support services. Our enterprise IT offerings include end-to-end enterprise IT services, which span the design, development, integration, deployment, management and operations, sustainment and security of our customers’ entire IT infrastructure. These segments have been aggregated into one reporting segment for financial reporting purposes. Substantially all of our revenues and tangible long-lived assets are generated by or owned by entities located in the United States.

The separation from former Parent was completed on September 27, 2013. Prior to separation, the financial information discussed below and included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may not necessarily reflect what our financial condition, results of operations or cash flow would have been had we been a stand-alone company during the periods presented or what our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows may be in the future. Subsequent to separation, we are incurring additional costs to be able to function as an independent, publicly traded company, including additional costs related to IT.

Executive Summary

Revenue for the quarter was $1.0 billion, a decrease of $206 million compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2013. The change was driven primarily by a large program ramp down, reduction in overseas contingency operations, and reduced and delayed customer awards resulting from the current U.S. Government budget pressures.

SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

 


 

Operating income for the third quarter was $37 million, reflecting a decrease of $36 million compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2013. The change was driven primarily by higher separation transaction and restructuring costs and lower revenue base.

Additional highlights included the following:

 

 

Total backlog (funded and unfunded) was $7.3 billion.

 

 

Net bookings were approximately $1.5 billion for the quarter as compared to $1.6 billion in the corresponding period last year.

 

 

In connection with the separation, we obtained a $500 million term loan which provided our initial cash balance as well as enabled us to pay a $295 million distribution to former Parent prior to separation.

Economic Opportunities, Challenges, and Risks

In fiscal 2013, we generated 95 percent of our total revenues from contracts with the U.S. Government and 73 percent of our total revenues from contracts with the DoD, including subcontracts where the U.S. Government or the DoD, respectively, is the ultimate purchaser. Our business performance is affected by the overall level of U.S. Government spending (especially defense spending) and the alignment of our offerings and capabilities with the budget priorities of the U.S. Government. While we believe that national security, including defense, will continue to be a priority, the U.S. Government budget deficit and the national U.S. debt has created pressure to examine and reduce spending across all federal agencies. Baseline spending for the DoD for the next 10 years has been reduced and there may be further reductions. Adverse changes in fiscal and economic conditions, such as the manner in which spending reductions are implemented, including sequestration, future government shutdowns, and issues related to the nation’s debt ceiling, could materially impact our business.

Trends in the U.S. Government contracting process, including a shift towards multiple-award contracts (in which certain contractors are preapproved using Indefinite Delivery / Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) and General Services Administration (GSA) contract vehicles) and awarding contracts on a low price, technically acceptable basis, have increased competition for U.S. Government contracts. The U.S. Government has increasingly relied on contracts that are subject to a competitive bidding process, including IDIQ, GSA Schedule and other multi-award contracts, which has resulted in greater competition and increased pricing pressure. We expect that a majority of the business that we seek in the foreseeable future will be awarded through a competitive bidding process. For example, during fiscal 2013 we were not awarded the successor contract to the DISN Global Solutions (DGS) program with DISA. Additionally, since 2011, Organizational Conflicts of Interest (OCI) rules have become more restrictive, leading to greater fragmentation of the industry.

Despite the budget and competitive pressures impacting the industry, we believe we are well-positioned to expand customer penetration and benefit from opportunities that we have not previously pursued. Our scale, size and prime contractor leadership position are expected to help differentiate us from our competitors, especially on large contracts. We believe our long-term, trusted customer relationships and deep technical expertise provide us with the sophistication to handle mission-critical contracts. Our current competitive cost structure as well as our strategy to further lower our total delivery cost by centralizing strategic sourcing and developing repeatable offerings are expected to allow us to compete effectively on price in the evolving environment. Additionally, due to the separation and the resulting removal of many OCI restrictions, we believe we have enhanced our ability to expand market share with our existing customers and pursue new growth opportunities.

Results of Operations

The primary financial performance measures we use to manage our business and monitor results of operations are revenue, operating income, and cash flows from operations. The following table summarizes our results of operations for the periods presented:

We classify indirect costs charged to our contracts as overhead (included in cost of revenues) and general and administrative expenses in the same manner as such costs are defined in our disclosure statements under U.S. Government Cost Accounting Standards.

Revenues. Revenues decreased $206 million, or 17 percent, for the three months ended November 1, 2013 as compared to the three months ended October 31, 2012. Revenue contraction was primarily due to the ramp down of the DGS program ($82 million), reduced activity on IT and logistics programs impacted by in-theatre force drawdown ($42 million), lower funding levels for material and subcontracts on Navy contract vehicles ($42 million), and the impact of one less productive day as compared to the prior year period ($16 million). The remainder of the decline was driven by slower U.S. Government contract awards resulting from budget pressures.

Revenues decreased $446 million, or 12 percent, for the nine months ended November 1, 2013 as compared to the nine months ended October 31, 2012, primarily due to the ramp down of the DGS program ($225 million), reduced activity on IT and logistics programs impacted by in-theatre force drawdown ($96 million), and lower funding levels for material and subcontracts on Navy contract vehicles ($94 million). The remainder of the decline was driven by slower U.S. Government contract awards resulting from budget pressures.

Operating Income. Operating income decreased by $36 million to 3.7 percent of revenue for the three months ended November 1, 2013 from 6.0 percent of revenue for the three months ended October 31, 2012, due to lower revenue volume ($15 million), increased separation transaction and restructuring costs ($12 million), the impact of higher indirect costs due to the government shutdown ($4 million), and the ramp down of the DGS program which had relatively higher profit margins ($4 million).

Operating income decreased by $93 million to 4.0 percent of revenue for the nine months ended November 1, 2013 from 6.1 percent of revenue for the nine months ended October 31, 2012, due to increased separation transaction and restructuring costs ($42 million), decreased operating income on lower revenue volume ($29 million), lower revenues on relatively higher profit margin contracts such as DGS ($11 million), an increase in unfavorable changes in estimates on contracts accounted for under the percentage of completion revenue recognition method ($7 million), costs to establish our IT infrastructure ($6 million), and the impact of higher indirect costs due to the government shutdown ($4 million).

Other Key Performance Measures

In addition to the primary financial performance measures discussed above, we also believe that bookings and backlog are useful measures for management and investors to evaluate our potential future revenues. In addition, we consider measures such as contract types and revenue mix to be useful tools for management and investors to evaluate our operating income and margin performance.

Bookings and Backlog. We had net bookings worth an estimated $1.5 billion and $2.8 billion during the three and nine months ended November 1, 2013, respectively. Net bookings represent the estimated amount of revenue to be earned in the future from funded and unfunded contract awards that were received during the period, net of any adjustments to previously awarded backlog amounts. We calculate net bookings as the period’s ending backlog plus the period’s revenues less the prior period’s ending backlog. Backlog represents the estimated amount of future revenues to be recognized under negotiated contracts as work is performed. Backlog related to future revenues to be performed by former Parent is included in the values presented below. We segregate our backlog into two categories as follows:

 

 

Funded Backlog. Funded backlog for contracts with government agencies primarily represents contracts for which funding is appropriated less revenues previously recognized on these contracts, and does not include the unfunded portion of contracts where funding is incrementally appropriated or authorized on a quarterly or annual basis by the U.S. Government and other customers, even though the contract may call for performance over a number of years. Funded backlog for contracts with non-government agencies represents the estimated value on contracts, which may cover multiple future years, under which we are obligated to perform, less revenues previously recognized on these contracts.

 

 

Negotiated Unfunded Backlog. Negotiated unfunded backlog represents estimated amounts of revenue to be earned in the future from (1) negotiated contracts for which funding has not been appropriated or otherwise authorized and (2) unexercised priced contract options. Negotiated unfunded backlog does not include any estimate of future potential task orders expected to be awarded under IDIQ, GSA Schedule or other master agreement contract vehicles.

The estimated value of our total backlog as of the dates presented was as follows:

 

     November 1,
2013
     January 31,
2013
 
     (in millions)  
                   

Funded backlog

   $ 1,989       $ 1,953   

Negotiated unfunded backlog

     5,329        5,811  

Total backlog

   $ 7,318      $ 7,764  

Bookings and backlog fluctuate from period to period depending on the timing of contract awards, renewals, modifications and cancellations.

We expect to recognize a substantial portion of our funded backlog as revenues within 12 months from the end of the reporting period. However, the U.S. Government has the right to cancel contracts at any time. Similarly, certain contracts with commercial customers include provisions that allow the customer to cancel at any time. Most of our contracts have cancellation terms that would permit us to recover all or a portion of our incurred costs and fees for work performed.

Contract Types. Our earnings and profitability may vary materially depending on changes in the proportionate amount of revenues derived from each type of contract. For a discussion of the types of contracts under which we generate revenue, see “Business—Contracts—Contract Types” in our Information Statement. The following table summarizes revenues by contract type as a percentage of total revenues for the periods presented:

Revenue Mix. We generate revenues under our contracts from (1) the efforts of our technical staff, which we refer to as labor-related revenues, and (2) the efforts of our subcontractors and (3) the materials provided on a contract. Our subcontractor-related revenues and materials-related revenues generally have lower margins than our labor-related revenues. The following table presents changes in labor-related revenues, subcontractor-related revenues and materials-related revenues for the periods presented:

Materials-related revenues decreased primarily on DGS and IT and logistics contracts affected by the in-theatre force drawdown for the three and nine months ended November 1, 2013 relative to the respective periods in the prior year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Current Liquidity. Our business has low capital intensity because we are primarily a services provider. We expect to fund our ongoing working capital, capital expenditures, commitments and other discretionary investments through cash flows from operations and, if needed, a Revolving Credit Facility. Our cash flows, prior to separation, reflect the cash that was swept to former Parent as part of the central cash management program. In connection with the separation, we raised indebtedness through our Term Loan Facility in the amount of $500 million, of which $295 million was used to fund a cash distribution to former Parent. We also have $200 million of additional funds available under our Revolving Credit Facility.

 

20


SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

 


 

Future Liquidity. We anticipate that our future cash needs will be for working capital, capital expenditures, commitments and strategic investments. Our ability to fund these needs through cash flows from operations will depend, in part, on our ability to generate cash in the future, which depends on our future financial results, which are subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative and regulatory factors. Furthermore, our ability to forecast future cash flows is more limited because we do not have a recent operating history as a stand-alone company.

Our $500 million borrowing under the Term Loan Facility and, if used in the future, the Revolving Credit Facility, will incur interest at a variable rate. On September 26, 2013, in accordance with our risk management objectives, we entered into fixed rate swap agreements for the same notional amount and period as the Term Loan Facility. These instruments are used to hedge the variability in interest payment cash flows and are accounted for as a cash flow hedge. Under the swap agreements, we pay the fixed rate and the counterparties to the agreement pay a floating interest rate, for which measurement and settlement is performed monthly.

The Term Loan Facility will amortize beginning at 1.25% per fiscal quarter of the borrowed amount on October 31, 2014, with additional quarterly amortization payments increasing up to 2.50% on October 31, 2016 and thereafter. Borrowings under the Credit Facilities must be repaid in full on September 26, 2018.

Although we believe that the arrangements in place will permit us to finance our operations on acceptable terms and conditions, our access to, and the availability of, financing on acceptable terms and conditions in the future will be impacted by many factors, including: (1) our credit ratings or absence of a credit rating, (2) the liquidity of the overall capital markets, and (3) overall economic conditions. We cannot assure that such financing will be available to us on acceptable terms or that such financing will be available at all. We believe that our future cash from operations together with our cash on hand, and access to bank financing and capital markets will provide adequate resources to fund our short-term and long-term liquidity and capital needs.

Historical Cash Flow Trends

     November 1,
2013
    October 31,

     (in millions)

Total cash flows provided by (used in) financing activities

     108       (243

Total (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents

   $ 156     $ (1

Cash Provided by Operations . Cash flows provided by operations were $58 million for the nine months ended November 1, 2013, which was a decrease of $189 million as compared to the comparable prior year period. The decrease is due to lower net income, an increase in receivables and a reduction in accrued payroll and employee benefits. Receivables in the current year were impacted by the timing of invoice processing due to the government shutdown as well as anticipated billing delays resulting from the Company’s IT system shutdown related to the separation. The U.S. Government’s accelerated payment initiative encouraged agencies to pay contractors more timely and was discontinued at the end of the prior year, resulting in an increase, during 2013, in the average time to collect. As a result, days sales outstanding were 64 days for the nine months ended November 1, 2013 compared to 56 days for the same period in the prior year. Accrued payroll and employee benefits were lower in the current year because there were fewer accrued payroll days than during the prior year due to the change in reporting periods.

Cash Used in Investing Activities. Cash used in investing activities, principally consisted of expenditures for property, plant and equipment, which increased by $4 million in 2013 primarily due to the acquisition of assets necessary to operate as an independent company.

Cash Provided by (used in) Financing Activities.

Prior to the separation, cash used in financing activities primarily represented net transfers to former Parent. As former Parent has historically used a centralized approach to cash management and financing of its operations, the components of net transfers to former Parent include cash transfers from us to former Parent and payments by former Parent to settle our obligations. These transactions were considered to be effectively settled for cash at the time the transaction was recorded.

For 2013 and prior to separation, financing activities consisted of borrowings under the Term Loan Facility of $495 million (net of $5 million in deferred financing costs), payment of a dividend to former Parent of $295 million, receipt of a capital contribution from former Parent of $26 million as well as net transfers to former Parent using the centralized cash management approach for the portion of the quarter prior to separation.

Subsequent to separation, we paid $14 million in cash dividends to our stockholders.

(2) Amounts represent an estimate of future variable interest payments on the Term Credit Facility based on scheduled outstanding principal amounts and projected 1-month LIBOR as of November 1, 2013. We have the option to prepay loan principal amounts, in which case interest would not be due and we would not have a contractual obligation. The above table excludes the effects of interest rate swaps used to hedge against changes in 1-month LIBOR.

Significant Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The preparation of these financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingencies at the date of the unaudited financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management evaluates these estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Our estimates and assumptions have been prepared on the basis of the most current best available information. The results of these estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

We have several significant accounting policies, which are described in Note 1 of our financial statements included in our Information Statement, that are both important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and require management’s most difficult, subjective and complex judgments. Typically, the circumstances that make these judgments difficult, subjective and complex have to do with making estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. There were no material changes to our existing significant accounting policies during the nine months ended November 1, 2013. In connection with the funding of the Term Loan Facility, we entered into fixed interest rate swap agreements and, accordingly, have added a significant accounting policy related to accounting for derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges to our disclosure in Note 1.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to certain market risks in the normal course of business. The following information about our market sensitive financial instruments contains forward-looking statements.

Foreign Currency Risk

From time-to-time, we may enter into foreign currency forward contracts to manage a portion of the exchange rate risk related to receipts from customers and payments to suppliers denominated in foreign currencies. Since the substantial majority of our business is conducted in U.S. dollars, a 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates would not have a material impact to our financial position or results of operations.

Interest Rate Risk

Debt obligations. We have approximately $500 million of variable rate debt. Our financial risk management objective is to reduce variability in earnings from changes in interest rates, which we may manage through operational means or the use of financial instruments, such as interest rate swaps. In connection with the funding of our variable rate Term Loan Facility, we

 

22


SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

 


entered into fixed rate interest rate swap agreements with the same aggregate notional amount and tenor as the underlying debt, effectively converting our variable rate debt to fixed rate debt in order to mitigate our exposure to interest rate risk. Accordingly, a hypothetical 50 basis points (bps) change to interest rates would not materially change our results of operations or cash flows. For additional information related to our debt and interest rate swap agreements, see Notes 7 and 8, respectively, of the financial statements.

Derivatives . As of November 1, 2013, the fair value of our fixed interest rate swaps was $3 million (liability). Under the swap agreements, the Company pays a fixed rate of 1.41% and the counterparties to the agreements pay a floating interest rate based on 1 month LIBOR. A hypothetical 50 bps change in the 1 month LIBOR curve would change the fair value of the fixed interest rate swaps up to $10 million (liability or asset). Since the interest rate swaps are accounted for as cash flow hedges, the change in fair value is reported as a component of equity (accumulated other comprehensive income). We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. For additional information related to calculating the fair value of our interest rate swaps, see Note 1 of the financial statements.

Cash equivalents. A 10% unfavorable interest rate movement for interest earned on our cash and cash equivalents would not materially impact the value of the holdings and would have a negligible impact on interest income at current market interest rates.

Inflation Risk

We have generally been able to anticipate increases in costs when pricing our contracts. Bids for longer-term firm fixed-price contracts typically include labor and other cost escalations in amounts that historically have been sufficient to cover cost increases over the period of performance.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer (our Chief Executive Officer) and principal financial officer (our Chief Financial Officer), has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of November 1, 2013, and our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded, as of November 1, 2013, that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. These disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred in the quarterly period covered by this report that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

We have provided information about legal proceedings in which we are involved in Note 10 – Legal Proceedings of the notes to condensed consolidated and combined financial statements for the three months ended November 1, 2013 contained within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

In addition to the matters disclosed in Note 10, we are routinely subject to investigations and reviews relating to compliance with various laws and regulations. Additional information regarding such investigations and reviews is set forth in Note 11 – Other Commitments and Contingencies, of the notes to condensed consolidated and combined financial statements for the three and nine months ended November 1, 2013 contained within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Except for the risk factor described below, there were no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in our Information Statement included as Exhibit 99.1 to our Registration Statement on Form 10, as amended, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on September 9, 2013.

A decline in the U.S. Government defense budget, changes in spending or budgetary priorities, prolonged U.S. Government shutdown or delays in contract awards may significantly and adversely affect our future revenues, cash flow and financial results.

Revenues under contracts with the U.S. Government, either as a prime contractor or subcontractor to other contractors, represented approximately 95% of our total revenues in fiscal 2013 with approximately 73% of our revenues generated from work we perform for the DoD. Our operating results could be adversely affected by spending caps or changes in the budgetary priorities of the U.S. Government or the DoD, as well as delays in program starts or the award of contracts or task orders under contracts. Current U.S. Government spending levels for defense-related programs may not be sustained, and future spending and program authorizations may not increase or may decrease or shift to programs in areas in which we do not provide services or are less likely to be awarded contracts. Such changes in spending authorizations and budgetary priorities may occur as a result of the rapid growth of the federal budget deficit, increasing political pressure and legislation, including the Budget Control Act of 2011, designed to reduce overall levels of government spending, including through sequestration, shifts in spending priorities from defense-related programs as a result of competing demands for federal funds, the number and intensity of military conflicts or other factors.

The Budget Control Act of 2011 enacted 10-year discretionary spending caps which are expected to generate over $1 trillion in savings for the U.S. Government, a substantial portion of which comes from DoD baseline spending reductions. In addition, additional automatic spending cuts (referred to as sequestration) totaling $1.2 trillion over 10 years have begun to be implemented in the U.S. Government fiscal year ended September 30, 2013. These reduction targets will further reduce DoD and other federal agency budgets. The Office of Management and Budget provided guidance to agencies and departments on implementing the sequestration cuts for government fiscal year 2013. However, there remains much uncertainty about the level of cuts that will be required for government fiscal year 2014 and the impact those cuts will have on contractors supporting the government. In light of the current uncertainty, we are not able to predict the potential impact of sequestration on our company or our financial results. However, we expect that implementation of further automatic spending cuts in government fiscal year 2014 will reduce, delay or cancel funding for certain of our contracts—particularly those with unobligated balances—and programs, and could adversely impact our operations and financial results. In addition, Congress failed to approve an interim or full-year budget before the U.S. Government’s fiscal year ended on September 30, 2013, which resulted in a shutdown of non-essential government services. Many U.S. Government personnel, including those working with our employees on certain of our contracts with the U.S. Government, were furloughed following the government shutdown, and certain government facilities were closed, which caused our employees to stop working on impacted contracts. On October 5, 2013, the Secretary of Defense issued an order the effect of which caused most of the government personnel working for the DoD to return to work. Other U.S. Government agencies remained closed until October 18, 2013, following the enactment of legislation that reopened the government with funding at post-sequester fiscal year 2013 levels through January 15, 2014, extended U.S. borrowing authority (commonly referred to as the debt ceiling) through February 7, 2014, and established a House-Senate budget conference committee to deliver budget and debt ceiling related recommendations by December 13, 2013. The failure of Congress to pass an interim or full-year budget or increase the debt ceiling before February 7, 2014 could disrupt our business. The impacts to our business on account of a prolonged government shutdown or failure to increase the debt ceiling are uncertain at this time, but potential impacts include delay in payments owed to us by the U.S. Government, loss of revenue and profit on contracts that did not have government funding in place before a government shutdown or otherwise could not be performed by us during a government shutdown, disruption in our subcontractors’ business that may impact our performance on contracts and other impacts, any of which could adversely affect our operations, cash flow and financial results.

The U.S. Government also conducts periodic reviews of U.S. defense strategies and priorities, which may shift DoD budgetary priorities, reduce overall U.S. Government spending or delay contract or task order awards for defense-related

programs, including programs from which we expect to derive a significant portion of our future revenues. In addition, changes to the DoD acquisition system and contracting models could affect whether and how we pursue certain opportunities and the terms under which we are able to do so. A significant decline in overall U.S. Government spending, including in the areas of national security, a significant shift in its spending priorities, the substantial reduction or elimination of particular defense-related programs or significant delays in contract or task order awards for large programs could adversely affect our future revenues and limit our growth prospects.

Our spin-off transaction subjects us to risks relating to the novation and transfer of U.S. Government and other contracts and contract vehicles from former Parent to us that could negatively affect our results of operations and diminish our competitive position.

On September 27, 2013, we completed a spin-off transaction from our former Parent and became an independent, publicly traded company. In connection with the spin-off transaction, former Parent agreed to novate or assign to us, with government approval, those customer contracts and contract vehicles that relate primarily to our business. Prior to novation or assignment, we will continue to perform the work on these contracts and we are dependent on former Parent to fulfill its obligations to us under the separation agreements to, among other things, collect and remit to us customer payments on these contracts. If customers do not pay former Parent or former Parent fails to collect and remit customer payments to us on a timely basis as required under applicable contracts, our cash flow would be negatively impacted. Certain contract vehicles to be novated or assigned to us involve existing or potential task orders, delivery orders and other work that former Parent is performing or may perform in the future. To the extent that former Parent or another large company would be considered to be a subcontractor to us in connection with work performed under these contracts (when they were not considered to be a subcontractor before our separation from Parent), we may face costs and administrative burdens and our ability to achieve small business subcontracting goals established by our government customers may be impaired, which could diminish our competitive position on future contract proposals. Further, our business operations have historically relied on some contract vehicles that will not be novated or assigned to us in the separation transaction. If we are unable to access these contract vehicles through commercial arrangements with former Parent or another prime contractor, or to transition this work to an alternative contract vehicle owned by us on a timely basis, our revenues and results from operations would be negatively affected.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

 

(c) Purchases of Equity Securities by the Company

In October 2013, our board of directors authorized a stock repurchase program under which we may repurchase up to 5 million shares of our common stock. Stock repurchases may be made on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions with third-parties. Whether repurchases are made and the timing and amount of repurchases depends on a variety of factors including market conditions, the Company’s capital position and internal cash generation, and other factors.

ARTICLE II

SCOPE OF AGREEMENT

Section 2.1.      General .   Subject to the terms and conditions of this MTC Agreement, the Parties shall use, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to use the level of effort specified herein, but in no case less than commercially reasonable efforts, to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, a portion of which may be implemented simultaneously with the execution of this MTC Agreement. This MTC Agreement is intended to address categories of certain Leidos Business, New SAIC Business, and Joint Future Work that the Parties will perform following the Distribution.

Section 2.2.      Categories of Contracts Within Scope of this MTC Agreement

(a)          SAIC Contracts Currently Being Performed .   This category includes the following two types:

(i)        “ Category A .”  For SAIC Contracts that are Leidos Contracts, but will require ongoing performance by New SAIC after the Distribution Date, Leidos and New SAIC will enter into Subcontracts that become effective on the Distribution Date. Under these Subcontracts, New SAIC will perform work in support of Leidos, which will continue to be the prime contractor after the Distribution Date. Attachment A identifies the Subcontracts that are within this Category A and contains the Subcontracts executed pursuant to Article V of this MTC Agreement, which governs the process for entering into these Subcontracts.

(ii)        “ Category B .”  For SAIC Contracts that are New SAIC Contracts and that require Novation to New SAIC following the Distribution Date, the Parties will use best efforts to cause the prompt Novation of those SAIC Contracts from Leidos to New SAIC after the Distribution Date. Further, Leidos and New SAIC have entered into the Pending Novation Agreement set forth in Attachment B that becomes effective on the Distribution Date. Under this Pending Novation Agreement, New SAIC will perform work on behalf of

 

3


Leidos, which will continue to be the prime contractor until Novation of each Contract. For any particular SAIC Contract within this Category B, New SAIC may or may not require support of Leidos to perform work under such Contract pending Novation or thereafter. Leidos and New SAIC will enter into Subcontracts that become effective upon Novation of the SAIC Contracts within this Category B. Attachment B identities the SAIC Contracts covered by the Pending Novation Agreement and identifies the Subcontracts that must be executed as the SAIC Contracts are Novated to New SAIC. As these Subcontracts are executed by the Parties, they will automatically be incorporated into Attachment B . Article V governs the process for entering into Subcontracts following Novation.

(b)          Joint Future Work .   This category includes the following four types:

(i)         “ Category C .”   For new Customer Contracts awarded to Leidos following the Distribution Date based on quotations, bids, and proposals jointly supported by the Parties and submitted before the Distribution, and provided that the Parties intend for such new Contracts to remain Leidos Contracts with support to be provided by New SAIC, Leidos and New SAIC will enter into Subcontracts that become effective on the dates that the new Contracts are awarded to Leidos. Under these Subcontracts, New SAIC will perform work in support of Leidos, which will be the prime contractor for such Contracts. Attachment C identifies the potential Subcontracts that are within this Category C. If and as these Subcontracts are executed by the Parties, they will automatically be incorporated into Attachment C . Article V governs the process for entering into these Subcontracts.

(ii)         “ Category D .”   For new Customer Contracts awarded to Leidos following the Distribution Date based on quotations, bids, and proposals submitted before the Distribution, and provided that the Parties intend for such new Contracts to be New SAIC Contracts that require Novation to New SAIC, the Parties will use best efforts to cause the prompt Novation of those Contracts from Leidos to New SAIC after Contract award. Further, the Pending Novation Agreement set forth in Attachment B shall govern these Contracts effective as of the date of their award to Leidos. Under the Pending Novation Agreement, New SAIC will perform work on behalf of Leidos, which will continue to be the prime contractor until Novation of each such Contract. Attachment D identifies the potential new Contracts that will be covered by the Pending Novation Agreement. For any particular new Customer Contract within this Category D, New SAIC may or may not require the support of Leidos to perform work under such Contract pending Novation or thereafter. Following each Novation of a particular new Customer Contract within this Category D, Leidos and New SAIC will enter into a new Subcontract to the extent that New SAIC requires the support of Leidos in the performance of that particular new Contract. Attachment D identifies the potential Subcontracts that must be executed as new Contracts are Novated to New SAIC. As these Subcontracts are executed by the Parties, they will automatically be incorporated into Attachment D . Article V governs the process for entering into Subcontracts following Novation.

(iii)        “ Category E .”   For joint business development efforts that the Parties intend to pursue or continue to pursue as of the Distribution Date, as identified in Attachment E , Leidos and New SAIC have executed a Teaming Agreement that governs the identified efforts, which is also set forth in Attachment E , The efforts identified in Attachment E , among other things, indicate which Party is anticipated to be the prime contractor and which is anticipated to be the subcontractor, the anticipated scope of work or work share that shall be performed by each Party should the business development efforts result in a Contract award, any specific financial terms governing the future relationship of the Parties, and the business development responsibilities of Leidos and New SAIC concerning the pursuit of the work and the submission of a proposal. Attachment E does not include business development efforts that have resulted in the submission of a quotation, bid, or proposal as of the Distribution Date.

 

4


(iv)         “ Category F .”   To ensure uninterrupted performance and enable the Parties to jointly access and market their services under selected government-wide acquisition contracts, blanket purchase agreements, indefinite quantity indefinite delivery contracts, and General Services Administration schedule contracts (collectively, “ Identified Contract Vehicles” ) that were already awarded to SAIC as of the Distribution Date, or that are awarded to Leidos or New SAIC after the Distribution Date based on quotations, bids, and proposals submitted prior to the Distribution Date, Leidos and New SAIC have executed the Contract Performance Continuation Agreement set forth in Attachment F . The Contract Performance Continuation Agreement governs the Parties’ joint use of the Identified Contract Vehicles listed in Attachment F , which Attachment, among other things, identifies whether each such Identified Contract Vehicle is a Leidos Contract or a New SAIC Contract and includes any unique requirements governing the use of that Identified Contract Vehicle. Attachment F also identifies certain existing and potential task orders, delivery orders, work orders, and other work (collectively, “Orders”) that have been issued under the Identified Contract Vehicles as of the Distribution Date, or are the subject of proposals submitted as of the Distribution Date and are pending award, along with the Party that is responsible for the continued performance of those Orders until their completion. Each such Order shall be performed exclusively and entirely by the Party indicated in Attachment F under the terms of the Contract Performance Continuation Agreement.

ARTICLE III

MASTER TERMS OF SUBCONTRACTS

Section 3.1.      General .   Each of the Subcontracts executed pursuant to this MTC Agreement and pertaining specifically to Categories A, B, C, and D, shall be governed by the following terms and conditions (the “ Subcontract Master Terms ”), which shall be deemed incorporated into those Subcontracts. In the event of any conflict between the Subcontract Master Terms and the specific terms of any Subcontract entered into pursuant to this MTC Agreement, including without limitation the specific terms set forth in the Subcontract templates in Attachment G , the specific terms shall govern. In the terms and conditions that follow, the terms Buyer and Seller are as set forth in Article I above.

(a)          Billing Rates – Cost Reimbursement .   This section is applicable only to the extent that a Subcontract is of a cost reimbursement type. Seller may include as allowable indirect costs such overhead rates as established by either (i) for Federal Subcontracts, the cognizant Government agency in accordance with the principles of FAR Part 31 and any applicable agency supplements thereto, or (ii) for Government Subcontracts, as established by Subcontract Schedule C, entitled “Indirect Cost Rates.” Pending establishment of final indirect overhead rates for any period, Seller shall be reimbursed at billing rates approved by the cognizant Government agency, which billing rates may be revised from time to time, subject to such agency approval and subject further to appropriate adjustment when the final rates for that period are established.

(b)         Fixed Fee – Cost Reimbursement .   This section is applicable only to the extent that a Subcontract is of a cost reimbursement type. Buyer shall pay the Seller for performing the individual Subcontract the specified fixed fee.

 

5


(c)          Final Indirect Cost Rates – Cost Reimbursement .   This section is applicable only to the extent that a Subcontract is of a cost reimbursement type. Buyer shall reimburse Seller on the basis of final annual indirect cost rates and the appropriate bases established by Seller and the Government in effect for the period covered by the indirect cost rate proposal. Such rates and bases shall not change any monetary ceiling, funding amount, contract obligation, or specific cost allowance or disallowance provided for in this Subcontract. The rates and bases shall be automatically deemed incorporated into this Subcontract upon their effective dates.

(d)          Minimum Labor Category Qualification Requirements .   This section is applicable only to the extent that minimum labor category qualification requirements are applicable to the prime contract and/or the Subcontract. The following statement shall be included in all invoices that include costs for labor categories that are subject to minimum labor category qualification requirements for education, employment, licensing, and/or professional certification for Seller personnel:

“Seller has reviewed the qualifications of the individuals whose labor costs are being invoiced hereunder and hereby certifies that all individuals meet the minimum labor category qualification requirements for education, employment, licensing and/ or professional certification for the specific labor categories for which his or her work is being billed.”

Seller agrees that if this Subcontract includes minimum labor category qualification requirements, Seller shall not invoice Buyer for any labor until Seller first verifies that each individual proposed to work satisfies the minimum labor category qualification requirements for each labor category. In instances where an individual does not meet all the minimum labor category qualification requirements, but Seller believes the individual is qualified to perform the work, Seller must request and receive a written approval from Buyer waiving some or all of the minimum labor category qualification requirements prior to permitting the individual to start work.

Seller agrees to promptly notify Buyer if it discovers, subsequent to assigning an individual to perform on the Subcontract, that a Seller employee does not meet one or more of the applicable minimum labor category qualification requirements.

Seller agrees to refund to Buyer all monies paid for any individual performing on the Subcontract where it is determined that the individual does not meet one or more of the applicable minimum labor category qualification requirements.

(e)          Payment – Cost Reimbursement .   This section is applicable only to the extent that a Subcontract is of a cost reimbursement type. Upon receipt and approval by Buyer of invoices that comply with the INVOICES provision of the Subcontract under which the invoice is submitted.

(i)          Federal .   Payments shall be made in accordance with FAR 52.216-7 (Allowable Cost and Payment) and any applicable agency supplements thereto. Seller shall adjust its allowable indirect costs under the Subcontract simultaneously with Seller’s submittal of its final indirect cost rate proposal in accordance with FAR 52.216-7(d)(2)(i). In the event that Seller’s final indirect cost rates, as determined by the Government in accordance with FAR 52.216-7(d)(2)(ii). vary from Seller’s proposed rates, Seller shall adjust its allowable indirect costs within thirty (30) days of such determination. In the event Seller fails to timely make such adjustments, or to certify to Buyer that no adjustments are required to Seller’s allowable indirect costs, Buyer shall be under no obligation to consider subsequent requests by Seller to increase its allowable indirect costs under this Subcontract. Seller shall comply with FAR 52.232-20 (Limitation of Cost) and FAR 52.232-22 (Limitation of Funds), which are hereby incorporated by reference.

(ii)         Government .   Each payment made shall not be subject to setoff but shall be subject to reduction to the extent of amounts which are found by Buyer or Seller not to have been properly payable, and shall also be subject to reduction for overpayments. Seller shall promptly notify Buyer of any such overpayments found by Seller.

(f)          Payment – Time and Materials .   This section is applicable only to the extent that a Subcontract is of a time and materials type. Buyer shall make payment, without any setoff, but subject to reduction in the event of and to the extent of amounts found by Buyer or Seller not to be properly payable or to the extent they have been overpaid, within 45 days after receipt of a proper invoice. Buyer shall pay Seller upon the submission of invoices approved by Buyer as follows:

(i)          Overtime.    Unless specifically authorized in writing by Buyer, Seller is not authorized to perform and Buyer is not obligated to reimburse Seller for work performed on an overtime, extended work week, shift premium, or uncompensated time basis.

(ii)         Materials and other direct costs (ODCs).    Authorized material and other direct costs, such as travel, will be reimbursed on an actual cost basis in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation and Cost Accounting Standards, as applicable, and applied on a consistent basis.

(1)         Federal .   Payment for materials and ODCs are subject to the Allowable Cost and Payment clause, FAR 52.216-7, and the Payments Under Time-and-Materials and Labor-Hour Contracts clause, FAR 52.232-7.

(2)         Commercial Items .   In addition to the Federal terms in Paragraph (1) above, for Seller-furnished direct material and “incidental services” that meet the definition of commercial items in FAR 2.201, the price paid will be the established catalog or market price, adjusted to reflect the quantities being purchased and any modifications required under the Agreement. If the direct materials or incidental services do not meet the commercial item definition, the price paid will be the cost to the Seller, which shall not include profit or G&A. Where materials are withdrawn from inventories, the cost must be determined in accordance with proper accounting practices consistently followed by Seller. Seller shall support its material cost claims by submitting invoices, storeroom requisitions, expense reports, or other substantiation acceptable to Buyer. This Subcontract is not subject to FAR Part 31 and final indirect rates. Accordingly, indirect rates shall not be applied to any costs billed under this Subcontract.

(3)         Government .   Seller may apply appropriate indirect burdens if 1) allowable as provided in the individual Subcontract and 2) Seller’s accounting and billing systems are acceptable on the basis of Government audits or reviews. Absent Buyer’s determination of adequacy of Seller’s accounting and billing systems, Seller shall be reimbursed only for the actual direct costs of material, travel and other direct costs.

(g)          Payment – Firm, Fixed Price .    This section is applicable only to the extent that a Subcontract is of a firm, fixed price type. Payment shall be made in accordance with the milestone schedule provided in the individual Subcontract. Payment terms are Net 45 Days after acceptance of the delivered items or services and receipt of a proper invoice, unless otherwise specified in this Subcontract. Buyer shall not make any setoff, but may make any adjustments in Seller’s invoices due to shortages, late delivery, rejections, or other failure to

 

7


comply with the requirements of this Subcontract before payment. Cash Discounts will be taken from date of acceptance of delivered items, or date of a proper invoice, whichever is later.

For Special Retirement purposes, years of service shall mean the period of service determined conclusively by the Committee.

2.          RIGHTS OF THE RECIPIENT WITH RESPECT TO THE RSUs.

a)         No Stockholder Rights . The RSUs granted pursuant to this Award do not and shall not entitle Recipient to any rights of a stockholder. The rights of Recipient with respect to the RSUs shall remain forfeitable at all times prior to the date on which such rights become vested, and the restrictions with respect to the RSUs lapse, in accordance with Section 3, 4 or 5.

b)         Additional RSUs as Dividend Equivalents . If the Company pays any cash dividends on its Common Stock, the Company shall credit to Recipient, on each dividend payment date, a number of additional RSUs (“Dividend Equivalents”) equal in value to the cash dividends that would have been paid on the shares of Common Stock underlying the unvested RSUs covered by this Agreement assuming that: (i) such underlying shares had been outstanding as of the record date for such dividends declared on or after the Grant Date and prior to the issuance date of the underlying shares; and (ii) the amount of the Dividend Equivalents had been reinvested in additional shares of Common Stock as of the payment date of such dividends. The number of additional RSUs representing Dividend Equivalents shall be determined by (a) multiplying the dollar amount of the cash dividends paid per share of Common Stock by the number of RSUs subject to this Award that remain unvested as of the applicable dividend payment date (including additional RSUs attributable to prior Dividend Equivalents) and (b) dividing such amount by the Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan) of a share of Common Stock on the dividend payment date. Dividend Equivalents so credited shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as the RSUs to which such Dividend Equivalents relate, shall be distributed in shares of Common Stock when, and if, and to the extent that the RSUs to which they related are vested and settled as provided below, but shall be forfeited in the event that the

RSUs with respect to which such Dividend Equivalents were credited are forfeited (including RSUs that are forfeited due to failure to meet the Performance Goals). For the avoidance of doubt, no Dividend Equivalents shall be credited or distributed with respect to any RSUs that have vested and for which the underlying shares have been issued prior to the applicable dividend payment date.

c)         Conversion of RSUs; Issuance of Common Stock. No shares of Common Stock shall be issued to Recipient prior to the date on which the RSUs vest in accordance with Section 3, 4 or 5. On the date that any RSUs vest pursuant to Section 3, 4 or 5 (or as promptly as administratively practicable thereafter), the Company shall cause to be issued in book-entry form, registered in Recipient’s name or in the name of Recipient’s legal representatives, beneficiaries or heirs, as the case may be, the underlying shares in payment of such vested whole RSUs (including additional RSUs credited as Dividend Equivalents), unless such payment is deferred in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Company’s non-qualified compensation deferral plans.

3.          VESTING SCHEDULE; RSUs SUBJECT TO FORFEITURE.

a)         If the Performance Goals are met, 100% of the RSUs shall be earned and eligible for vesting in accordance with clause (b) below. If the Performance Goals are not met, the RSUs shall be forfeited as of the Determination Date, and no RSUs hereunder shall become vested.

b)         Subject to the terms and conditions of this Award, to the extent the RSUs are earned under clause (a) above, the RSUs shall vest in accordance with the following vesting schedule:

1)         On the later of the Determination Date or first-year anniversary of the Grant Date, 20% of the RSUs shall vest.

2)         On the second-year anniversary of the Grant Date, an additional 20% of the RSUs shall vest.

3)         On the third-year anniversary of the Grant Date, an additional 20% of the RSUs shall vest.

4)         On the fourth-year anniversary of the Grant Date, the remaining 40% of the RSUs shall vest.

If the application of the foregoing vesting schedule results in a fraction of a RSU being vested, such fractional RSU shall be deemed not to be vested and shall continue to be subject to forfeiture, as described below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, additional RSUs credited to Recipient as Dividend Equivalents shall vest on the same vesting schedule as the RSUs to which such Dividend Equivalents relate. Recipient shall not sell, transfer, assign, hypothecate, pledge, grant a security interest in, or in any other way alienate, any of the RSUs, or any interest or right therein.

4.         ACCELERATION OF VESTING UPON DEATH OR PERMANENT DISABILITY. If Recipient is an employee, director or consultant of the Company or an Affiliate and ceases to be affiliated with the Company or any Affiliate as a result of Recipient’s death or Permanent Disability, or if Recipient’s death or Permanent Disability occurs following a Special Retirement, all of the RSUs shall become fully vested whether or not earned under Section 3(a).

5.         CONTINUATION OF VESTING UPON SPECIAL RETIREMENT.

a)         If Recipient is an Executive Officer and Recipient’s affiliation with the Company or any Affiliate terminates as a result of Recipient’s Special Retirement in accordance with the provisions of subsection (iii) of the definition of the term “Special Retirement” in Section 1 above, or if Recipient is a director of the Company and Recipient’s affiliation with the Company or any Affiliate terminates as a result of Recipient’s Special Retirement in accordance with the provisions of subsection (iv) of the definition of the term “Special Retirement” in Section 1 above, any unvested RSUs shall continue to vest in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in Section 3 above to the extent the RSUs are earned under Section 3(a).

b)         If, after the first anniversary of the Grant Date, Recipient’s affiliation with the Company or an Affiliate terminates as a result of Recipient’s Special Retirement in accordance with the provisions of subsection (i) or (ii) of the definition of the term “Special Retirement” in Section 1 above, the remaining unvested RSUs shall continue to vest in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in Section 3 above, to the extent the RSUs are earned under Section 3(a). With respect to the first vesting event under Section 3(b)(1), shares shall be issued, if earned under Section 3(a), no later than ninety (90) days following the first anniversary of the Grant Date.

c)         Notwithstanding the foregoing clauses (a) and (b), all unvested RSUs shall be immediately and irrevocably forfeited in the event that Recipient violates the terms of his or her inventions, copyright and confidentiality agreement with the Company or an Affiliate or breaches his or her other contractual or legal obligations to the Company or an Affiliate, including the non-solicitation obligations set forth in Section 13 of this Agreement.

d)         If Recipient is eligible for Special Retirement at the time of a Fundamental Transaction or is continuing to vest following Special Retirement under the foregoing clause (a) or (b), any unvested RSUs shall be treated as provided in the Plan, but the resulting consideration shall only be paid on the date the RSUs would have vested if a Fundamental Transaction had not occurred, unless the RSUs are terminated in a manner compliant with Section 409A.

b)         Section 409A .

(i)         This Award is intended to qualify for the short-term deferral exception to Section 409A of the Code (“ Section 409A ”) described in the regulations promulgated under Section 409A to the maximum extent possible. To the extent Section 409A is applicable to this Award, this Award is intended to comply with Section 409A and to be interpreted and construed consistent with such intent.

(ii)         With respect to any Recipient who is eligible for Special Retirement, this Award is intended to be paid on fixed payment dates under Sections 3 and 5 of this Agreement and such payments may not be accelerated except as set forth in Section 5(b) hereof or otherwise to the extent permitted under Section 409A.

(iii)       Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if Recipient is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A, as determined under the Company’s established methodology for determining specified employees, on the date of Recipient’s termination of service at a time when this Award pursuant its terms would be settled, then to the extent required in order to comply with Section 409A, shares of Common Stock that would be issued under this Award (or any other amount due hereunder) at such termination of service shall not be issued before the earlier of (x) the date that is six months following the Recipient’s termination of employment and (y) the date of the Recipient’s death.

(iii)       For purposes of this Agreement, the terms “terminate,” “terminated” and “termination” mean a termination of the Recipient’s employment that constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of the default rules of Section 409A.

9.          EMPLOYMENT AT WILL.

 a)         If Recipient is an employee or consultant of the Company or an Affiliate, such employment or affiliation is not for any specified term and may be terminated by employee or by the Company or an Affiliate at any time, for any reason, with or without cause and with or without notice.

 b)         Recipient acknowledges and agrees that the right to continue vesting in the RSUs pursuant to the schedule set forth in Section 3 is earned only by continuing as an employee or consultant at the will of the Company or as a director (not through the act of being hired, being granted RSUs or any other award or benefit) and that the Company has the right to reorganize, sell, spin-out or otherwise restructure one or more of its businesses or Affiliates at any time or from time to time, as it deems appropriate (a “reorganization”). Recipient acknowledges and agrees that such a reorganization could result in the termination of Recipient’s relationship as an employee or consultant to the Company or an Affiliate, or the termination of Affiliate status of Recipient’s employer and the loss of benefits available to Recipient under this Agreement, including but not limited to, the termination of the right to continue vesting the RSUs under this Agreement.

By accepting the RSUs granted hereunder, Recipient expressly agrees to be bound by the Policy when adopted without payment of any additional consideration by Recipient. The Policy will also provide for recovery of incentive compensation from any employee involved in fraud or intentional misconduct, whether or not it results in a restatement of the Company’s financial results. Recipient acknowledges and agrees that the Policy will be treated as though it had been incorporated into this Agreement ab initio and that any payments or issuances of Common Stock in respect of the RSUs will be subject to recoupment pursuant to the Policy, including any amendments to the Policy and any additional recoupment obligations imposed by the Human Resources and Compensation Committee or by applicable law or regulation.

In the case of a governmental, regulatory or administrative agency, commission, department or other governmental authority, the customer or prospective customer will be determined by reference to the specific program offices or activities for which the Company or an Affiliate provides (or may reasonably provide) goods or services.

c)         Remedies . Recipient acknowledges and agrees that a breach of any of the promises or agreements contained in this Section 13 will result in immediate, irreparable and continuing damage to the Company for which there is no adequate remedy at law, and the Company or an Affiliate will be entitled to injunctive relief, a decree for specific performance, and other relief as may be proper, including money damages.

The Company shall have no obligation to provide Optionee with notice of termination or expiration of this Option.

4.          EXERCISE OF OPTION.

4.1       General Schedule of Vesting and Exercisability . Subject to the terms of the Plan and this Agreement, this Option shall vest and become exercisable as to 100% of the Option Shares on the third-year anniversary of the Grant Date. Optionee may purchase all, or from time to time, any part of the maximum number of Option Shares which are then exercisable.

If Optionee is an employee of the Company or an Affiliate and is on a leave of absence pursuant to the terms of the Company’s Administrative Policy No. SH-1 “Working Hours and Absences” or similar policy maintained by an Affiliate, as such policies may be revised from time to time, Optionee shall not, during the period of such absence be deemed, by virtue of such absence alone, to have terminated Optionee’s employment. Optionee shall continue to vest in this Option during any approved medical or military leave of absence. Medical leave shall include family or medical leaves, workers’ compensation leave, or pregnancy disability leave. For all other leaves of absence, this Option will vest only during active employment and shall not vest during a leave of absence, unless required under local law. However, if Optionee returns to active employment with the Company or an Affiliate following such a leave, this Option will be construed to vest as if there had been no break in active employment. During any leave of absence, Optionee shall have the right to exercise the vested portion of this Option provided that such exercise occurs prior to the Expiration Date.

5.          TERMINATION OF OPTION; EVENTS IMPACTING ABILITY TO EXERCISE OPTION.

5.1       Termination of Affiliation . If Optionee is an employee, director or consultant of the Company or an Affiliate and ceases to be affiliated with the Company or an Affiliate for any reason other than death, Permanent Disability or Cause, Optionee may exercise this Option within the ninety (90) day period following such cessation of affiliation, but only to the extent that this Option was exercisable at the date of such cessation of affiliation and Optionee’s rights to exercise the Option have not been suspended as of the date of such cessation of affiliation. This Option shall terminate on the earlier to occur of the expiration of such ninety (90) day period or the Expiration Date.

5.2       Termination for Cause . If Optionee is an employee, director or consultant of the Company or an Affiliate and is terminated for Cause as determined by the Administrator of the Plan, this Option and all of Optionee’s rights with respect thereto shall immediately terminate on the date of such termination.

5.3       Termination for Breach of Obligation . The Company shall have the right to terminate the unvested portion of this Option at any time if Optionee violates the terms of his or her inventions, copyright and confidentiality agreement with the Company or an Affiliate or breaches his or her other contractual or legal obligations to the Company or an Affiliate, including the non-solicitation obligations set forth in Section 12 of this Agreement (“ Breach of Obligation ”).

5.4       Termination of Unexercised Options . If any portion of the Option is not exercised by the earlier of: (i) the end of the applicable period specified in Sections 5.1, 5.2 or 5.3 or (ii) the Expiration Date, any such unexercised portion and all of Optionee’s rights with respect thereto shall terminate.  

 

September 2013   3   


6.          TAX WITHHOLDING. If the Company or any Affiliate is required to withhold any federal, state, local or other taxes upon the exercise of this Option, Optionee shall remit an amount sufficient to satisfy any applicable tax withholding requirement in a form of payment satisfactory to the Administrator or the Committee, which may include by cashier’s check, money order or wire transfer or by the Company’s withholding Stock issued upon exercise of this Option to pay the required withholding. If the Company withholds Stock, the Fair Market Value of the Stock withheld, as determined as of the date of withholding, shall not exceed the minimum rates required by law.

7.          RESTRICTIONS UNDER SECURITIES LAW. All shares of Stock covered by this Agreement are subject to any restrictions which may be imposed under applicable state and federal securities laws and are subject to obtaining all necessary consents which may be required by, or any condition which may be imposed in accordance with, applicable state and federal securities laws or regulations.

8.          INCORPORATION OF PLAN. The Option granted hereby is granted pursuant to the Plan, all the terms and conditions of which are hereby made a part hereof and are incorporated herein by reference. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions contained herein and those set forth in the Plan, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall prevail.

9.          RECOUPMENT OF AWARDS. The Human Resources and Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors intends to adopt a recoupment policy (the “ Policy ”), that may require members of senior management to return incentive compensation if there is a material restatement of the financial results upon which the compensation was originally based. By accepting the Option granted hereunder, Optionee expressly agrees to be bound by the Policy when adopted without payment of any additional consideration by Optionee. The Policy will also provide for recovery of incentive compensation from any employee involved in fraud or intentional misconduct, whether or not it results in a restatement of the Company’s financial results. Optionee acknowledges and agrees that the Policy will be treated as though it had been incorporated into this Agreement ab initio and that any payments or issuances of Stock with respect to the Option will be subject to recoupment pursuant to the Policy, including any amendments to the Policy and any recoupment obligations imposed by the Human Resources and Compensation Committee or by applicable law or regulation.

10.         EMPLOYMENT AT WILL.

10.1      If Optionee is an employee or consultant of the Company or an Affiliate, such employment or affiliation is not for any specified term and may be terminated by employee or by the Company or an Affiliate at any time, for any reason, with or without cause and with or without notice. Nothing in this Agreement (including, but not limited to, the right to exercise this Option pursuant to the schedule set forth in Section 4 herein), the Plan or any covenant of good faith and fair dealing that may be found implicit in this Agreement or the Plan shall (i) confer upon Optionee any right to continue in the employ of, or affiliation with, the Company or an Affiliate, (ii) constitute any promise or commitment by the Company or an Affiliate regarding the fact or nature of future positions, future work assignments, future compensation or any other term or condition of employment or affiliation, (iii) confer any right or benefit under this Agreement or the Plan unless such right or benefit has specifically accrued under the terms of this Agreement or Plan or (iv) deprive the Company of the right to terminate Optionee at will and without regard to any future vesting opportunity that Optionee may have.

 

September 2013   4   


10.2      Optionee acknowledges and agrees that the right to exercise this Option pursuant to the schedule set forth in Section 4 is earned only by continuing as an employee or consultant at the will of the Company or as a director (not through the act of being hired, being granted this Option or any other Option, award or benefit or acquiring shares hereunder) and that the Company has the right to reorganize, sell, spin-out or otherwise restructure one or more of its businesses or Affiliates at any time or from time to time, as it deems appropriate (a “reorganization”). Optionee acknowledges and agrees that such a reorganization could result in the termination of Optionee’s relationship as an employee or consultant to the Company or an Affiliate, or the termination of Affiliate status of Optionee’s employer and the loss of benefits available to Optionee under this Agreement, including but not limited to, the termination of the right to exercise the Options under this Agreement.

11.          COPIES OF PLAN AND OTHER MATERIALS. Optionee acknowledges that Optionee has received copies of the Plan and the Plan prospectus from the Company and agrees to receive stockholder information, including copies of any annual report, proxy statement and periodic report, electronically from the Company. Optionee acknowledges that copies of the Plan, Plan prospectus, Plan information and stockholder information are also available upon written or telephonic request to the Company. Optionee acknowledges that copies of the Company’s policies referenced in this Agreement, including the Policy when adopted, are or will be available on ISSAIC, the Company’s intranet, and are or will be also available upon written or telephonic request to the Company.

12.         NON-SOLICITATION.

12.1     Solicitation of Employees . Optionee agrees that, both while employed by the Company or an Affiliate and for one year afterward, Optionee will not solicit or attempt to solicit any employee of the Company or an Affiliate to leave his or her employment or to violate the terms of any agreement or understanding that employee may have with the Company or an Affiliate. The foregoing obligations apply to both the Optionee’s direct and indirect actions, and apply to actions intended to benefit Optionee or any other person, business or entity.

12.2     Solicitation of Customers . Optionee agrees that, for one year after termination of employment with the Company or an Affiliate, Optionee will not participate in any solicitation of any customer or prospective customer of the Company or an Affiliate concerning any business that:

 

     a) involves the same programs or projects for that customer in which Optionee was personally and substantially involved during the 12 months prior to termination of employment; or

 

     b) has been, at any time during the 12 months prior to termination of employment, the subject of any bid, offer or proposal activity by the Company or an Affiliate in respect of that customer or prospective customer, or any negotiations or discussions about the possible performance of services by the Company or an Affiliate to that customer or potential customer, in which Optionee was personally and substantially involved.

 

September 2013   5   


In the case of a governmental, regulatory or administrative agency, commission, department or other governmental authority, the customer or prospective customer will be determined by reference to the specific program offices or activities for which the Company or an Affiliate provides (or may reasonably provide) goods or services.

12.3     Remedies . Optionee acknowledges and agrees that a breach of any of the promises or agreements contained in this Section 12 will result in immediate, irreparable and continuing damage to the Company for which there is no adequate remedy at law, and the Company or an Affiliate will be entitled to injunctive relief, a decree for specific performance, and other relief as may be proper, including money damages.

13.          MISCELLANEOUS. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties with respect to its subject matter, provided, however, that if Optionee and the Company are parties to an existing written agreement addressing the subject matter of Section 12, such agreement shall control with respect to such subject matter until the termination thereof, at which time Section 12 shall control. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the respective parties, the successors and assigns of the Company, and the heirs, legatees, and personal representatives of Optionee. The parties hereby agree that should any portion of this Agreement be judicially held to be invalid, unenforceable, or void, such portion shall be construed by limiting and reducing it, so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent compatible with the applicable law as is then in effect.

14.          ACKNOWLEDGMENT . Optionee acknowledges that the Option constitutes full and adequate consideration for Optionee’s obligations under this Agreement, accepting the Option constitutes an unequivocal acceptance of this Agreement and any attempted modifications or deletions will have no force or effect upon the Company’s right to enforce the terms and conditions stated herein.

15.          GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without reference to such state’s principles of conflict of laws.

16.          FEDERAL TAXES . The Option is not intended to be treated as an “incentive stock option,” as such term is defined in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Optionee should consult his or her personal tax advisor for more information concerning the tax treatment of the Option.

By accepting the Option, you agree to all of the terms and conditions set forth above and in the Plan.
