Revenues for the quarter were $3.45 billion, up 18% compared to the prior year quarter. Excluding acquired revenues of $58 million, revenues increased 16% organically. Revenues grew across all reportable segments; the largest contributors were the increase in veterans' disability examinations after the pause from the COVID-19 pandemic and the start-up of the Navy Next Generation IT contract.

Operating income for the quarter was $269 million, up 8.0% from the prior year quarter. Operating income margin decreased from 8.5% to 7.8% year-over-year as a result of the $81 million net gain recognized upon the receipt of proceeds related to the VirnetX, Inc. ("VirnetX") legal matter in the second quarter of fiscal year 2020. Net income attributable to Leidos shareholders was $169 million, or $1.18 per diluted share. Net income attributable to Leidos shareholders was up 10% and diluted EPS was up 11% from the second quarter of fiscal year 2020. The weighted average diluted share count for the quarter was 143 million compared to 144 million in the prior year quarter.

Adjusted EBITDA was $359 million for the second quarter, up 5% year-over-year; adjusted EBITDA margin decreased from 11.8% to 10.4% over the same period. Excluding the VirnetX gain in the prior period, adjusted EBITDA margin increased by 140 basis points in the quarter, primarily due to strong program management and better direct labor utilization. Non-GAAP net income was $218 million for the second quarter, which was down 2% year-over-year, and non-GAAP diluted EPS for the quarter was $1.52, which was down 2% compared to the second quarter of fiscal year 2020. Excluding the VirnetX gain, non-GAAP net income and diluted EPS were both up 37%.

Cash Flow Summary

Leidos generated $17 million of net cash provided by operating activities, used $396 million in investing activities, and provided $313 million by financing activities in the second quarter of fiscal year 2021. After adjusting for payments for property, equipment and software, quarterly free cash flow was an outflow of $4 million. The accounts receivable sale program decreased operating and free cash flow by $94 million. In addition, consistent with the high levels of organic growth, operating and free cash inflows ran below their typical levels to fund the start-up of new programs and the expansion of existing programs.

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2021, Leidos paid net consideration of $376 million to acquire Gibbs & Cox, Inc. ("Gibbs & Cox"), the largest independent ship design firm focused on naval architecture and marine engineering. The acquisition positions Leidos to provide a broad set of engineering solutions to the U.S. Navy and to an expanding set of foreign navies. To finance the acquisition, on May 7, 2021, Leidos entered into a senior unsecured term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $380 million with a maturity of 364 days.

In addition, Leidos paid down $27 million of debt and returned $48 million to shareholders as part of its regular quarterly cash dividend program. As of July 2, 2021, Leidos had $338 million in cash and cash equivalents and $5.1 billion of debt.

On July 30, 2021, the Leidos Board of Directors declared that Leidos will pay a cash dividend of $0.36 per share on September 30, 2021 to stockholders of record at the close of business on September 15, 2021. The $0.02 per share increase in the quarterly dividend reflects Leidos' confidence in the future outlook and commitment to shareholder returns.

New Business Awards

Net bookings totaled $3.8 billion in the quarter, representing a book-to-bill ratio of 1.1. As a result, backlog at the end of the quarter was $33.5 billion, of which $7.2 billion was funded. Included in the quarterly bookings were several particularly important awards:

• En Route Automation Modernization (ERAM) System. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has awarded initial tasking as part of a single source contract award to Leidos for the continued system integration, sustainment, and enhancement of the En Route Automation Modernization (ERAM) system. The ERAM system is critical for continued operations in the National Airspace System (NAS) and provides automation services for the en route domain at the 20 Continental United States Air Route Traffic Control Centers. This potential contract has a ten-year base period followed by two five-year option periods and a total estimated value of approximately $6.8 billion, if all options are exercised.
                                             
• Reserve Health Readiness Program III. Leidos was awarded a new prime contract by the U.S. Army Contracting Command-New Jersey to provide commercial health services to all U.S. military reserve component forces. Under the contract, QTC Medical Services, a Leidos company, will work with the Defense Health Agency program office to help ensure service members meet health requirements before, during and after deployment. Services will include physical, mental health and dental assessments along with laboratory and diagnostic services supported by a secure IT infrastructure and customer service call center. The single award, firm-fixed-price, cost-no-fee contract has a one-year base period of performance followed by four one-year options and a total estimated value of approximately $999 million, if all options are exercised.

In addition, Leidos received prime positions on several indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contracts that provide competitive differentiation and channels for future growth but are not included in bookings or backlog beyond any awarded task orders. The largest of these IDIQs were:

• Transportation Security Administration Screening Equipment Deployment Services. Leidos was awarded a prime contract by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) to provide services related to the deployment of Transportation Screening Equipment (TSE). Under the contract, Leidos will conduct surveys while providing on-site coordination, design support, planning and execution for screening equipment installations, relocations and removals. In addition to airports, the contract includes security support for special events, such as presidential inaugurations and spectator events, along with international efforts. The single-award IDIQ award has a total ceiling value of $470.7 million.
                                                            
• U.S. Air Force Intelligence Surveillance Reconnaissance Support. Leidos has been awarded a prime contract by the U.S. Air Force to provide solutions for a broad spectrum of aviation requirements for the Intelligence Surveillance Reconnaissance & Special Operations Forces (ISR/SOF) Directorate (WI), Sensors Division (WIN) Non-Standard Foreign Military Sales (FMS) branches. Under the contract, Leidos will provide a cadre of professionals and tools from across the industry to improve both U.S. and allied ISR capabilities. Leidos will also provide full aircraft and ISR sensor integration, procurement of hardware and spares, sustainment support and inspections for airworthiness/configuration. The multi-award IDIQ contract has a total estimated value of $950 million and includes a 13-year base period of performance with a 10-year ordering period and options up to three years, if exercised.

Forward Guidance

Leidos is reaffirming its fiscal year 2021 guidance as follows:

		Revenues (billions)	$13.7 - $14.1
		Adjusted EBITDA Margin	10.5% - 10.7%
		Non-GAAP Diluted EPS	$6.35 - $6.65
		Cash Flows Provided by Operating Activities (millions)	at or above $875

Non-GAAP diluted EPS excludes amortization of acquired intangible assets, acquisition, integration and restructuring costs and other tax adjustments. For additional information regarding non-GAAP diluted EPS and Leidos' other non-GAAP financial measures, see the related explanations and reconciliations to GAAP measures included elsewhere in this release.

Leidos does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted EBITDA margins or non-GAAP diluted EPS to net income attributable to Leidos shareholders, due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation. Because certain deductions for non-GAAP exclusions used to calculate projected net income attributable to Leidos shareholders may vary significantly based on actual events, Leidos is not able to forecast on a GAAP basis with reasonable certainty all deductions needed in order to provide a GAAP calculation of projected net income attributable to Leidos shareholders at this time. The amounts of these deductions may be material and, therefore, could result in projected net income attributable to Leidos shareholders and diluted EPS being materially less than projected adjusted EBITDA margins and non-GAAP diluted EPS.

Defense Solutions

Defense Solutions revenues of $2,004 million increased by 14%, compared to the prior year quarter. Excluding the $37 million of revenues from the acquisitions of 1901 Group (entire quarter from April 3, 2021 to July 2, 2021) and Gibbs & Cox (from acquisition date of May 7, 2021 to quarter ending date of July 2, 2021), the primary drivers of revenue growth were the start-up of the Navy Next Generation IT contract and increased weapons systems development. Defense Solutions operating income margin for the quarter remained unchanged at 6.8% compared to the prior year quarter. Non-GAAP operating income margin was 8.3%, compared to 8.1% in the prior year quarter.

Civil

Civil revenues of $799 million increased by 5%, compared to the prior year quarter. Excluding the $21 million of revenues from the acquisition of L3Harris Technologies' security detection and automation businesses ("SD&A Businesses") (from quarter beginning date of April 3, 2021 to acquisition year ending date of May 3, 2021), the primary driver of revenue growth was increased demand on large programs such as Hanford Site Integration. Civil operating income margin for the quarter decreased to 6.9% from 10.3% in the prior year quarter. Non-GAAP operating income margin was 9.1%, compared to 12.9% in the prior year quarter. The decline in segment profitability was primarily attributable to fewer deliveries of border and port security and airport screening systems.

Health

Health revenues of $645 million increased by 62%, compared to the prior year quarter, primarily as a result of the surge in veterans' disability examinations after the pause from the COVID-19 pandemic as well as increased volumes on the Defense Healthcare Management System Modernization (DHMSM) program and the ramp up of new programs such as the Military and Family Life Counseling (MFLC) program. Health operating income margin for the quarter improved to 16.6% from 0.3% in the prior year quarter. Non-GAAP operating income margin was 17.8%, compared to 5.3% in the prior year quarter. The improvement in segment profitability was primarily attributable to increased volume on fixed unit price programs and higher direct labor utilization on those programs.

LEIDOS HOLDINGS, INC.
UNAUDITED BACKLOG BY REPORTABLE SEGMENT
(in millions)

Backlog represents the estimated amount of future revenues to be recognized under negotiated contracts. Backlog value is based on management's estimates about volume of services, availability of customer funding and other factors, and excludes contracts that are under protest. Estimated backlog comprises both funded and negotiated unfunded backlog. Backlog estimates are subject to change and may be affected by several factors including modifications of contracts, non-exercise of options and foreign currency movements.

Funded backlog for contracts with the U.S. government represents the value on contracts for which funding is appropriated less revenues previously recognized on these contracts. Funded backlog for contracts with non-U.S. government entities and commercial customers represents the estimated value on contracts, which may cover multiple future years, under which Leidos is obligated to perform, less revenue previously recognized on the contracts.

Negotiated unfunded backlog represents estimated amounts of revenue to be earned in the future from contracts for which funding has not been appropriated and unexercised priced contract options. Negotiated unfunded backlog does not include unexercised option periods and future potential task orders expected to be awarded under IDIQ, General Services Administration Schedule or other master agreement contract vehicles, with the exception of certain IDIQ contracts where task orders are not competitively awarded or separately priced but instead are used as a funding mechanism, and where there is a basis for estimating future revenues and funding on future anticipated task orders.

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

		July 2, 2021												July 3, 2020

LEIDOS HOLDINGS, INC.
UNAUDITED NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Leidos uses and refers to organic growth, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, non-GAAP diluted EPS, free cash flow and free cash flow conversion, which are not measures of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. and, accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the comparable GAAP measures and should be read in conjunction with Leidos's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Management believes that these non-GAAP measures provide another measure of the results of operations and financial condition, including its ability to comply with financial covenants. These non-GAAP measures are frequently used by financial analysts covering Leidos and its peers. The computation of non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, thus limiting their use for comparability.

Organic growth captures the revenue growth that is inherent in the underlying business excluding the impact of acquisitions made within the prior year; it is computed as current revenues excluding acquisition revenues within the last 12 months divided by previous year revenues.

Non-GAAP operating income is computed by excluding the following discrete items from operating income:

• Acquisition, integration and restructuring costs – Represents acquisition, integration, lease termination and severance costs related to acquisitions.
• Amortization of acquired intangible assets – Represents the amortization of the fair value of the acquired intangible assets.
• Acquisition related financing costs – Represents the amortization of the debt financing commitments in connection with acquisitions.
• Loss on debt modification – Represents the write-off of debt discount and debt issuance costs as a result of debt modifications.
• Asset impairment charges – Represents impairments of long-lived tangible assets.

Non-GAAP operating margin is computed by dividing non-GAAP operating income by revenues.

Adjusted EBITDA is computed by excluding the following items from income before income taxes: (i) discrete items as identified above; (ii) interest expense; (iii) interest income; (iv) depreciation expense; and (v) amortization of intangibles.

Adjusted EBITDA margin is computed by dividing adjusted EBITDA by revenues.

Non-GAAP net income is computed by excluding the discrete items listed under non-GAAP operating income and their related tax impacts.

Non-GAAP diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income attributable to Leidos shareholders, adjusted for the discrete items as identified above and the related tax impacts, by the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

Free cash flow is computed by excluding expenditures for property, plant, and equipment from net cash provided by operating activities.

Free cash flow conversion is computed by dividing free cash flow by non-GAAP net income; operating cash flow conversion is computed by dividing net cash provided by operating activities by net income attributable to Leidos shareholders.
