These adjustments consist only of normal recurring accruals. Because of seasonal and other factors, results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. a. The following table shows how earnings per share were computed for the three and nine months ended September 30,March 31, 2004 and 2003 and 2002 (dollars in millions, shares in thousands): Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30 September 30 ------------------ ------------------March 31, ---------------------------- 2004 2003 2002 2003 2002 ------- ------- ------- ------------------ ---------- Basic Earnings Per Share Net income $ 56.228.9 $ 59.0 $ 147.2 $ 133.9 ======= ======= ======= =======38.5 ========= ========= Weighted average shares 330,033 324,075 328,675 322,792 ======= ======= ======= =======332,722 327,208 ========= ========= Basic earnings per share $ .17.09 $ .18 $ .45 $ .41 ======= ======= ======= =======.12 ========= ========= Diluted Earnings Per Share Net income $ 56.228.9 $ 59.0 $ 147.2 $ 133.9 ======= ======= ======= =======38.5 ========= ========= Weighted average shares 330,033 324,075 328,675 322,792332,722 327,208 Plus incremental shares from assumed exercises underconversions of employee stock plans 3,946 594 2,642 1,287 ------- ------- ------- -------5,326 1,616 --------- --------- Adjusted weighted average shares 333,979 324,669 331,317 324,079 ======= ======= ======= =======338,048 328,824 ========= ========= Diluted earnings per share $ .17.09 $ .18 $ .44 $ .41 ======= ======= ======= ======= At September 30, 2003, 21.2.12 ========= ========= During the three months ended March 31, 2004, 21.9 million shares related to employee stock plans were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the option prices are above the average market price of the company's common stock. b. The company has two business segments: Services and Technology. Revenue classifications by segment are as follows: Services - consulting and systems integration, outsourcing, infrastructure services and core maintenance; Technology - enterprise-class servers and specialized technologies. The accounting policies of each business segment are the same as those followed by the company as a whole. Intersegment sales and transfers are priced as if the sales or transfers were to third parties. Accordingly, the Technology segment recognizes intersegment revenue and manufacturing profit on hardware and software shipments to customers under Services contracts. The Services segment, in turn, recognizes customer revenue and marketing profits on such shipments of company hardware and software to customers. The Services segment also includes the sale of hardware and software products sourced from third parties that are sold to customers through the company's Services channels. In the company's consolidated statements of income, the manufacturing costs of products sourced from the Technology segment and sold to Services customers are reported in cost of revenue for Services. Also included in the Technology segment's sales and operating profit are sales of hardware and software sold to the Services segment for internal use in Services engagements. The amount of such profit included in operating income of the Technology segment for the three months ended September 30,March 31, 2004 and 2003 and 2002 was $6.7$1.4 million and $1.2 million, respectively; and the amount of profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 was $18.6 million and $11.8$3.1 million, respectively. The profit on these transactions is eliminated in Corporate. The company evaluates business segment performance on operating income exclusive of restructuring charges and unusual and nonrecurring items, which are included in Corporate. All other corporate and centrally incurred costs are allocated to the business segments based principally on revenue, employees, square footage or usage. 6 A summary of the company's operations by business segment for the three and nine monththree-month periods ended September 30,March 31, 2004 and 2003 and 2002 is presented below (in millions of dollars): Total Corporate Services Technology Three Months Ended ----- --------- -------- ---------- September 30,March 31, 2004 ------------------ Customer revenue $1,462.9 $1,165.0 $297.9 Intersegment $( 45.7) 4.8 40.9 -------- -------- -------- ------ Total revenue $1,462.9 $( 45.7) $1,169.8 $338.8 ======== ======== ======== ====== Operating income $ 58.8 $ .4 $ 29.2 $ 29.2 ======== ======== ======== ====== Three Months Ended March 31, 2003 ------------------ Customer revenue $1,449.7 $1,124.3 $ 325.4$1,398.9 $1,107.0 $291.9 Intersegment $( 66.4) 7.3 59.1 -------- -------70.0) 5.6 64.4 -------- -------- -------- ------ Total revenue $1,449.7$1,398.9 $( 66.4) $1,131.670.0) $1,112.6 $356.3 ======== ======== ======== ====== Operating income $ 384.576.6 $ 2.6 $ 34.4 $ 39.6 ======== ======= ======== ======== Operating income (loss) $ 105.9 $( 1.3) $ 43.8 $ 63.4 ======== ======= ======== ======== Three Months Ended September 30, 2002 ------------------ Customer revenue $1,332.3 $1,016.3 $ 316.0 Intersegment $( 69.4) 6.5 62.9 -------- ------- -------- -------- Total revenue $1,332.3 $( 69.4) $1,022.8 $ 378.9 ======== ======= ======== ======== Operating income (loss) $ 96.2 $ - $ 57.9 $ 38.3 ======== ======= ======== ======== Nine Months Ended September 30, 2003 ---------------- Customer revenue $4,273.6 $3,394.7 $ 878.9 Intersegment $(225.6) 19.2 206.4 -------- ------- -------- -------- Total revenue $4,273.6 $(225.6) $3,413.9 $1,085.3 ======== ======= ======== ======== Operating income (loss) $ 268.5 $( 3.6) $ 142.3 $ 129.8 ======== ======= ======== ======== Nine Months Ended September 30, 2002 ------------------ Customer revenue $4,054.6 $3,104.8 $ 949.8 Intersegment $(233.0) 32.2 200.8 -------- ------- -------- -------- Total revenue $4,054.6 $(233.0) $3,137.0 $1,150.6 ======== ======= ======== ======== Operating income (loss) $ 272.0 $( 15.0) $ 171.5 $ 115.5 ======== ======= ======== ============== Presented below is a reconciliation of total business segment operating income to consolidated income before taxes (in millions of dollars): Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, September 30, ------------------ -----------------March 31 --------------------------- 2004 2003 2002 2003 2002 ---- ---- ---- ---- Total segment operating income $107.2 $ 96.2 $272.1 $287.058.4 $ 74.0 Interest expense (17.2) (17.6) (51.3) (53.2)(17.0) (15.7) Other income (expense), net .6 ( 4.7) 9.5 2.5 (18.9)3.4) Corporate and eliminations ( 1.3) - ( 3.6) (15.0) ------ ------.4 2.6 ------ ------ Total income before income taxes $ 84.042.4 $ 88.1 $219.7 $199.957.5 ====== ====== ====== ====== 7 Customer revenue by classes of similar products or services, by segment, is presented below:below (in millions of dollars): Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, September 30, ------------------ -----------------March 31 --------------------------- 2004 2003 2002 2003 2002 ---- ---- ---- ---- Services SystemsConsulting and systems integration $ 378.9377.1 $ 307.5 $1,121.3 $1,012.3356.4 Outsourcing 396.2 370.9 1,227.3 1,059.9443.0 409.3 Infrastructure services 207.5 198.8 620.1 617.9199.5 200.8 Core maintenance 141.7 139.1 426.0 414.7145.4 140.5 -------- -------- -------- -------- 1,124.3 1,016.3 3,394.7 3,104.81,165.0 1,107.0 Technology Enterprise-class servers 249.7 205.7 661.3 674.7201.8 217.8 Specialized technologies 75.7 110.3 217.6 275.196.1 74.1 -------- -------- -------- -------- 325.4 316.0 878.9 949.8 -------- --------297.9 291.9 -------- -------- Total $1,449.7 $1,332.3 $4,273.6 $4,054.6$1,462.9 $1,398.9 ======== ======== ======== ======== 7 c.

The company applies the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations in accounting for its stock-based employee compensation plans. For stock options, no compensation expense is reflected in net income as all stock options granted had an exercise price equal to or greater than the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. In addition, no compensation expense is recognized for common stock purchases under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," and has been determined as if the company had accounted for its stock plans under the fair value method of SFAS No. 123. For purposes of the pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options is amortized to expense over the options' vesting period.

Substantially all of the company's investments at equity consist of Nihon Unisys, Ltd., a publicly traded Japanese company ("NUL"). NUL is the exclusive supplier of the company's hardware and prior-year restructuring chargessoftware products in Japan. The company owns approximately 28% of NUL's outstanding common stock. Prior to January 1, 2004, the company's share of NUL's earnings or losses were approximately $51 millionrecorded semiannually in the nine months ended September 30, 2003 comparedsecond quarter and fourth quarter on a quarter- lag basis since NUL's quarterly financial results were not available. Due to $87recent regulatory changes in Japan, NUL is required to publish its earnings quarterly. Accordingly, effective January 1, 2004, the company has begun to record its equity earnings in NUL quarterly on a quarter-lag basis, and recorded equity income of $5.2 million for the prior-year period, and are expected to be approximately $7 million (which includes approximately $1 million related to restructuring charges taken prior to 2001) for the remainder of 2003 and $20 million (which includes approximately $6 million related to restructuring charges taken prior to 2001) in total for all subsequent years, principally for work-force reductions and idle lease costs. h.three months ended March 31, 2004. i. Cash paid during the ninethree months ended September 30,March 31, 2004 and 2003 and 2002 for income taxes was $63.2$18.4 million and $44.8$15.6 million, respectively.

In JuneNovember 2003, the company entered into a new lease for its facility at Malvern, PA that replaces a former lease that was due to expire in March 2005. The new lease has a 60-month term expiring in June 2008. Under the new lease, the company has the option to purchase the facility at any timepurchased KPMG's Belgian consulting business for approximately $34 million. In addition, if$3.3 million of cash plus assumed liabilities. The preliminary purchase price allocation was completed in December 2003 and assumed that the company does not exercise its purchase option and the lessor sells the facility at the endexcess of the lease term forpurchase price over the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was allocated to goodwill. An outside appraisal company completed their appraisal during the March 2004 quarter. Approximately $1.5 million of amortizable intangibles (principally customer relationships) were identified and recorded. The intangible assets have a price that is less thanweighted average life of approximately $34 million, the company will be required to guarantee the lessor a residual value on the property of up to $29 million. The lessor is a substantive independent leasing company that does not have the characteristics of a variable interest entity as defined by5.5 years. k. In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation("FASB") issued interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46"), "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of ARB 51." The primary objectives of this interpretation are to provide guidance on the identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other than through voting rights ("variable interest entities") and how to determine when and which business enterprise (the "primary beneficiary") should consolidate the variable interest entity. This new model for consolidation applies to an entity in which either (i) the equity investors (if any) do not have a controlling financial interest, or (ii) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity's activities without receiving additional subordinated financial support from other parties. In addition, FIN 46 requires that the primary beneficiary, as well as all other enterprises with a significant variable interest in a variable interest entity, make additional disclosures. Certain disclosure requirements of FIN 46 were effective for financial statements issued after January 31, 2003. In December 2003, the FASB issued FIN 46 (revised December 2003), "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" ("FIN No. 46"46-R") and is therefore not consolidated by the company.to address certain FIN 46 implementation issues. The company has accountedprovisions of FIN 46 were applicable for the lease as an operating lease, and therefore, neither the leased facility nor the related debt is reportedvariable interests in the company's accompanying balance sheets. As stated above, under the lease, the company is required to provide a guaranteed residual value on the facility of up to $29 million to the lessor at the end of the 60-month lease term. The company recognized a liability of approximately $1 million for the related residual value guarantee. The value of the guarantee was determined by computing the estimated present value of probability-weighted cash flows that might be expended under the guarantee, discounted using the company's incremental borrowing rate of approximately 6.5%. The company has recorded a liability for the fair value of the obligation with a corresponding asset recorded as prepaid rent which will be amortized to rental expense over the lease term. The liability will be subsequently assessed and adjusted to fair value as necessary. 10 j. Effectiveentities obtained after January 1, 2003, the company adopted SFAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections." SFAS No. 145 rescinds SFAS No. 4, which required that all gains and losses from extinguishment of debt be reported as an extraordinary item. Previously recorded losses on the early extinguishment of debt that were classified as an extraordinary item in prior periods have been reclassified to other income (expense), net.31, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 145 had no effect on the company's consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations, or liquidity. Effectiveprovisions applicable to special purpose entities ("SPE") and all other variable interests obtained after January 1,31, 2003 the company adopted SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." SFAS No. 146 requires companies to recognize costs associated with exit or disposal activities when they are incurred rather than at the date of commitment to an exit or disposal plan. SFAS No. 146 replaces previous accounting guidance provided by Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred indid not have a Restructuring)" and is effective for the company for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. Adoption of this statement had no material impact on the company's consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations, or liquidity. 10 Effective January 1, 2003,March 31, 2004, the company adopted FASB Interpretation No. 45, "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guaranteesthe provisions of Indebtedness of Others, an Interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57, and 107 and Rescission of FASB Interpretation No. 34" ("FIN No. 45"). The interpretation requires that upon issuance of a guarantee, the entity must recognize a liability for the fair value of the obligation it assumes under that guarantee. In addition, FIN No. 45 requires disclosures about the guarantees that an entity has issued, including a roll forward of the entity's product warranty liabilities. This interpretation is intended46-R applicable to improve the comparability of financial reporting by requiring identical accounting for guarantees issued with separately identified consideration and guarantees issued without separately identified consideration.Non-SPEs created prior to February 1, 2003. Adoption of this InterpretationFIN 46-R had no material impact on the company's consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations, or liquidity. Effective July 1, 2003, the company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") consensus on EITF Issue No. 00-21, "Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables." This issue addresses how to account for arrangements that may involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services, and/or rights to use assets. The final consensus of this issue is applicable to agreements entered into in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2003. Additionally, companies will be permitted to apply the consensus guidance in this issue to all existing arrangements as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in accordance with APB Opinion No. 20, "Accounting Changes." Adoption of this issue had no material impact on the company's consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations, or liquidity. In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" (FIN No. 46). This interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, "Consolidated Financial Statements", addresses consolidation of variable interest entities. Fin No. 46 requires certain variable interest entities ("VIE's") to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary if the entity does not effectively disperse risks among the parties involved. The provisions of FIN No. 46 are effective immediately for those variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003. The provisions, as amended, are effective for the first interim or annual period ending after December 15, 2003 for those variable interests held prior to February 1, 2003. While the company believes this Interpretation will not have a material effect on its financial position or results of operations, it is continuing to evaluate the effect of adoption of this Interpretation. 11 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Results of Operations - --------------------- For the three months ended September 30, 2003,March 31, 2004, the company reported net income of $56.2$28.9 million, or $.17$.09 per share, compared to $59.0with $38.5 million, or $.18$.12 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2002.March 31, 2003. Total revenue for the quarter ended September 30, 2003March 31, 2004 was $1.45$1.46 billion, up 9%5% from revenue of $1.33$1.40 billion for the quarter ended September 30, 2002.March 31, 2003. Foreign currency translations had a 4%7% positive impact on revenue in the quarter when compared towith the year-ago period. In the current quarter, Services revenue increased 11%5% and Technology revenue increased 3%2%. U.S. revenue increased 11%3% in the thirdfirst quarter compared towith the year-ago period driven by strength in the U.S. Federal government business. Revenueand revenue in international markets increased 6% driven by increases in Europe and South Pacific which were partially offset by declines in other international regions. On a constant currency basis, international revenue declined 7% in the current quarter compared to the year-ago period, as growth in Europe more than offset a decline in Latin America and a slight revenue decline in the Asia/Pacific region. Total gross profit margin was 29.3% in the third quarter of 2003 compared to 30.3% in the year-ago period, principally reflecting a decline in pension income as discussed below. For the three months ended September 30, 2003, selling, general and administrative expenses were $251.0 million (17.3% of revenue) compared to $241.3 million (18.1% of revenue)quarter. Pension expense for the three months ended September 30, 2002. The increaseMarch 31, 2004 was due to foreign currency translations and lower pension income. Research and development expense was $68.2$22.2 million compared to $65.5with $6.4 million a year ago. The company continues to invest in high-end Cellular MultiProcessing server technology and in key programs within its industry practices. For the third quarter of 2003, the company reported an operating income percent of 7.3% compared to 7.2% for the third quarter of 2002. Pensionpension income for the three months ended September 30, 2003 was approximately $9 million compared to approximately $37 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002. At the beginning of each year, accounting rules require that the company establish an expected long-term rate of return on its pension plan assets. One of the reasons for the decline inMarch 31, 2003. The change from pension income to pension expense was that, effective January 1, 2003,due to the company reduced its expected long-term rate of return on plan assets for its U.S. pension plan to 8.75% from 9.50%. In addition,following: (1) a decline in the discount rate used for the U.S. pension plan declined to 6.25% at December 31, 2003 from 6.75% at December 31, 2002, from 7.50% at December 31, 2001. The remaining reasons for the decline(2) an increase in pension income wereamortization of net unrecognized losses, (3) lower expected returns on U.S. plan assets due to asset declines,amortization of the company's change asdifference between the calculated value of January 1, 2003 to a cash balance plan inassets and the U.S.,fair value of plan assets, and (4) for international plans, declines in discount rates lower expected long-term rates of return on plan assets, and currency translation. The company records pension income or expense, as well as other employee-related costs such as FICA and medical insurance costs, in operating income in the following income statement categories: cost of sales; selling, general and administrative expenses; and research and development expenses. The amount allocated to each income statement line is based on where the salaries of the active employees are charged. The company currently expects to report pension expense of approximately $85 - $90 million in 2004 compared with pension income of $22.6 million in 2003. Total gross profit margin was 26.8% in the first quarter of 2004 compared with 27.7% in the year-ago period, the change principally reflected pension expense of $15.5 million in the current quarter compared with pension income of $1.2 million in the year-ago quarter. For the three months ended March 31, 2004, selling, general and administrative expenses were $261.2 million (17.9% of revenue) compared with $243.7 million (17.4% of revenue) for the three months ended March 31, 2003. Research and development ("R&D") expense was $71.5 million compared with $66.8 million a year ago. The company continues to invest in high-end Cellular MultiProcessing server technology and in key programs within its industry practices. R&D in the current period includes $1.8 million of pension expense compared with pension income of $3.2 million in the year-ago period. For the first quarter of 2004, the company reported an operating income percent of 4.0% compared with 5.5% for the first quarter of 2003, the change principally reflected pension expense of $22.2 million in the current quarter compared with pension income of $6.4 million in the year-ago period. Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2003March 31, 2004 was $17.2$17.0 million compared to $17.6with $15.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002.March 31, 2003. The increase in interest expense was due to higher borrowing levels in 2004, principally due to the issuance of $300 million of 6 7/8% senior notes in March 2003. Other income (expense), net was an expenseincome of $4.7$.6 million in the current quarter compared to incomewith an expense of $9.5$3.4 million in the year-ago quarter income.quarter. The principal reason for the changeincrease to income was foreign exchange lossesprincipally due to equity income of $5.2 million in the current quarter of $3.7 million compared to gains of $9.6 millionwith none in the prior-year quarter. As discussed in note h, effective January 1, 2004, the company began recording its equity investment in NUL quarterly on a quarter-lag basis. In prior years the company recorded its equity income from NUL semiannually in the June and December quarters on a quarter-lag basis. 12 Income before income taxes was $84.0$42.4 million in the thirdfirst quarter of 20032004 compared to $88.1with $57.5 million last year. The provision for income taxes was $27.8$13.5 million in the current period compared to $29.1with $19.0 million in the year-ago period. The effective tax rate was 32% in both periods was2004 and 33%. 12 For the nine months ended September 30, 2003, net income was $147.2 million, or $.44 per diluted share, compared to net income of $133.9 million, or $.41 per diluted share, last year. Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 was $4.27 billion, up 5% from $4.05 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. in 2003. Segment results - --------------- The company has two business segments: Services and Technology. Revenue classifications are as follows: Services - consulting and systems integration, outsourcing, infrastructure services, and core maintenance; Technology - enterprise-class servers and specialized technologies. The accounting policies of each business segment are the same as those followed by the company as a whole. Intersegment sales and transfers are priced as if the sales or transfers were to third parties. Accordingly, the Technology segment recognizes intersegment revenue and manufacturing profit on hardware and software shipments to customers under Services contracts. The Services segment, in turn, recognizes customer revenue and marketing profit on such shipments of company hardware and software to customers. The Services segment also includes the sale of hardware and software products sourced from third parties that are sold to customers through the company's Services channels. In the company's consolidated statements of income, the manufacturing costs of products sourced from the Technology segment and sold to Services customers are reported in cost of revenue for Services. Also included in the Technology segment's sales and operating profit are sales of hardware and software sold to the Services segment for internal use in Services engagements. The amount of such profit included in operating income of the Technology segment for the three months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, was $6.7 million and $1.2 million, respectively; and the amount of profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2003March 31, 2004 and 2003, was $18.6$1.4 million and $11.8$3.1 million, respectively. The profit on these transactions is eliminated in Corporate. The company evaluates business segment performance on operating income exclusive of restructuring charges and unusual and nonrecurring items, which are included in Corporate. All other corporate and centrally incurred costs are allocated to the business segments based principally on revenue, employees, square footage or usage.

Sales of these systems can vary significantly from quarter to quarter depending on customer needs. The company does not expect similar increases in specialized technology revenue to continue through 2004. Technology gross profit percent was 53.1%48.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2003March 31, 2004 compared to 46.4%with 50.0% in the year-ago period, and Technology operating income percent was 16.5%8.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2003March 31, 2004 compared to 10.1%with 11.1% last year.

New Accounting Pronouncements - ----------------------------- EffectiveIn January 1, 2003, the company adopted SFASFinancial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued interpretation No. 145, "Rescission46 ("FIN 46"), "Consolidation of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 64, AmendmentVariable Interest Entities, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections.ARB 51." SFAS No. 145 rescinds SFAS No. 4, which required that all gains and losses from extinguishmentThe primary objectives of debt be reported as an extraordinary item. Previously recorded lossesthis interpretation are to provide guidance on the early extinguishmentidentification of debtentities for which control is achieved through means other than through voting rights ("variable interest entities") and how to determine when and which business enterprise (the "primary beneficiary") should consolidate the variable interest entity. This new model for consolidation applies to an entity in which either (i) the equity investors (if any) do not have a controlling financial interest, or (ii) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity's activities without receiving additional subordinated financial support from other parties. In addition, FIN 46 requires that the primary beneficiary, as well as all other enterprises with a significant variable interest in a variable interest entity, make additional disclosures. Certain disclosure requirements of FIN 46 were classified as an extraordinary itemeffective for financial statements issued after January 31, 2003. In December 2003, the FASB issued FIN 46 (revised December 2003), "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" ("FIN 46-R") to address certain FIN 46 implementation issues. The provisions of FIN 46 were applicable for variable interests in prior periods have been reclassified to other income (expense), net.entities obtained after January 31, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 145 had no effect on the company's consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations, or liquidity. Effectiveprovisions applicable to special purpose entities ("SPE") and all other variable interests obtained after January 1,31, 2003 the company adopted SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." SFAS No. 146 requires companies to recognize costs associated with exit or disposal activities when they are incurred rather than at the date of commitment to an exit or disposal plan. SFAS No. 146 replaces previous accounting guidance provided by Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred indid not have a Restructuring)" and is effective for the company for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. Adoption of this statement had no material impact on the company's consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations, or liquidity. Effective January 1, 2003,March 31, 2004, the company adopted FASB Interpretation No. 45, "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guaranteesthe provisions of Indebtedness of Others, and Interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57, and 107 and Rescission of FASB Interpretation No. 34" ("FIN No. 45"). The interpretation requires that upon issuance of a guarantee, the entity must recognize a liability for the fair value of the obligation it assumes under that guarantee. In addition, FIN No. 45 requires disclosures about the guarantees that an entity has issued, including a roll forward of the entity's product warranty liabilities. This interpretation is intended46-R applicable to improve the comparability of financial reporting by requiring identical accounting for guarantees issued with separately identified consideration and guarantees issued without separately identified consideration.Non-SPEs created prior to February 1, 2003. Adoption of this InterpretationFIN 46-R had no material impact on the company's consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations, or liquidity. 14 Effective July 1, 2003, the company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") consensus on EITF Issue No. 00-21, "Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables." This issue addresses how to account for arrangements that may involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services, and/or rights to use assets. The final consensus of this issue is applicable to agreements entered into in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2003. Additionally, companies will be permitted to apply the consensus guidance in this issue to all existing arrangements as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in accordance with APB Opinion No. 20, "Accounting Changes." Adoption of this issue had no material impact on the company's consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations, or liquidity. In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" (FIN No. 46). This interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, "Consolidated Financial Statements", addresses consolidation of variable interest entities. Fin No. 46 requires certain variable interest entities ("VIE's") to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary if the entity does not effectively disperse risks among the parties involved. The provisions of FIN No. 46 are effective immediately for those variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003. The provisions, as amended, are effective for the first interim or annual period ending after December 15, 2003 for those variable interests held prior to February 1, 2003. While the company believes this Interpretation will not have a material effect on its financial position or results of operations, it is continuing to evaluate the effect of adoption of this Interpretation. Financial Condition - ------------------- Cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2003March 31, 2004 were $402.7$671.4 million compared to $301.8with $635.9 million at December 31, 2002.2003. During the ninethree months ended September 30, 2003,March 31, 2004, cash provided by operations was $162.1$115.8 million compared towith cash provided byused for operations of $70.0$64.9 million for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2002. The change in operatingMarch 31, 2003. Operating cash flow primarily reflectedincreased due to higher earnings (excluding the company's continued focus on working capital, includingnon cash impact of the change from pension income to pension expense), higher levels of customer prepayments in the current nine-month period comparedadvance payments for outsourcing projects, which are generally timed to the prior-year period.offset capital expenditures on those projects, and lower restructuring expenditures. Cash expenditures in the current periodquarter related to prior-year restructuring charges (which are included in operating activitiesactivities) were approximately $51$4 million compared to $87with $31 million for the prior-year period,quarter, and are expected to be approximately $7$9 million for the remainder of 20032004 and $20$6 million in total for all subsequent years, principally for work- forcework-force reductions and idle lease costs. Personnel reductions in the current nine-month period related to these restructuring actions were approximately 500. Cash used for investing activities for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2003March 31, 2004 was $326.4$105.1 million compared to $285.5with $103.8 million during the ninethree months ended September 30, 2002. During 2003, both proceeds from investments and purchases of investments, which represent derivative financial instruments used to manage the company's currency exposure to market risks from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, increased from the prior year as a result of an increase in the company's exposures, principally related to intercompany accounts.March 31, 2003. The increase in cash used was principally due to net purchases of investments of $37.1$5.4 million in the current periodquarter compared towith net purchases of $23.9$13.6 million in the prior-year period. In addition, the current nine-month period investment in marketable software was $109.4$29.0 million compared to $105.0with $40.0 million in the prior-year. Capital additions were $70.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared with $49.4 million in the prior-year andperiod. The increase in current year capital expenditures was principally due to additions to properties was $177.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $151.8 millionof revenue-generating assets, particularly in the prior-year period.company's outsourcing business. Cash provided by financing activities during the current nine-month periodquarter was $253.5$20.7 million compared to $54.1with $298.5 million in the prior year. The current nine- monthprior period includes net proceeds from issuance of long-term debt of $293.3 million as described below. In addition, duringin connection with the nine months ended September 30, 2003 there was a reduction of $57.0 millioncompany's issuance in short-term borrowings compared to an increase of $33.8 million in the year-ago period. 15 In March 2003 the company issuedof $300 million of 6 7/8% senior notes due 2010. At September 30, 2003,March 31, 2004, total debt was $1.1 billion, an increase of $239.8$10.7 million from December 31, 2002. On July 1, 2003, the2003. The company entered intohas a new $500 million credit agreement expiringthat expires in May 2006, to replace2006. As of March 31, 2004, there were no borrowings under this facility, and the $450entire $500 million credit agreement that was due to expire in March 2004.available for borrowings. Borrowings under the new agreement bear interest based on the then-current LIBOR or prime rates and the company's credit rating. The credit agreement contains financial and other covenants, including maintenance of certain financial ratios, a minimum level of net worth and limitations on certain types of transactions, which could reduce the amount the company is able to borrow. Events of default under the credit agreement include failure to perform covenants, material adverse change, change of control and default under other debt aggregating at least $25 million. If an event of default were to occur under the credit agreement, the lenders would be entitled to declare all amounts borrowed under it immediately due and payable. The occurrence of an event of default under the credit agreement could also cause the acceleration of obligations under certain other agreements and the termination of the company's U.S. trade accounts receivable facility, described below. As of September 30, 2003, there were no borrowings under this credit agreement. In addition, the company and certain international subsidiaries have access to certain uncommitted lines of credit from various banks. Other sources of short- term funding are operational cash flows, including customer prepayments, and the company's U.S. trade accounts receivable facility. Using this facility, the company sells, on an on-going basis, up to $225 million of its eligible U.S. trade accounts receivable through a wholly owned subsidiary, Unisys Funding Corporation I. The facility is renewable annually at the purchasers' option and expires in December 2003. The company expects to have a similar arrangement in place at the expiration of the current facility. If2006. At March 31, 2004, the company were unable to have a similar arrangement in place upon the expirationhad sold $150 million of the current facility, cash flow would be negatively affected; however, liquidity would be unaffected since the company believes that it has adequate sources and availability of short-term funding to meet its expected cash requirements.eligible receivables compared with $225 million at December 31, 2003. At September 30, 2003,March 31, 2004, the company has met all covenants and conditions under its various lending and funding agreements. Since the company believes that it will continue to meet these covenants and conditions, the company believes that it has adequate sources and availability of short-term funding to meet its expected cash requirements. 15 The company may, from time to time, redeem, tender for, or repurchase its securities in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions depending upon availability, market conditions and other factors. The company has on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement covering $1.2 billion of debt or equity securities, which enables the company to be prepared for future market opportunities. At September 30, 2003,March 31, 2004, the company had deferred tax assets in excess of deferred tax liabilities of $2,194$2,033 million. For the reasons cited below, management determined that it is more likely than not that $1,728$1,584 million of such assets will be realized, therefore resulting in a valuation allowance of $466$449 million. The company evaluates quarterly the realizability of its deferred tax assets and adjusts the amount of the related valuation allowance, if necessary. The factors used to assess the likelihood of realization are the company's forecast of future taxable income, and available tax planning strategies that could be implemented to realize deferred tax assets. Approximately $5.2$4.8 billion of future taxable income (predominantly U.S.) is needed to realize all of the net deferred tax assets. Failure to achieve forecasted taxable income might affect the ultimate realization of the net deferred tax assets. See "Factors That May Affect Future Results" below. Stockholders' equity increased $219.8$68.6 million during the ninethree months ended September 30, 2003,March 31, 2004, principally reflecting net income of $147.2$28.9 million, $35.0$16.3 million for issuance of stock under stock option and other plans, $3.1$1.6 million of tax benefits related to employee stock plans and currency translation of $38.1$20.2 million. 16 In March 2003, the company executed a lease commitment for a new facility in Reston, VA. The facility is to be used to consolidate the company's expanding U.S. Federal government business. The initial lease period runs from April 2003 to July 2018 and the lease provides for two five-year extensions. The rent over the initial lease term is approximately $110 million. In June 2003, the company entered into a new lease for its facility at Malvern, PA that replaces a former lease that was due to expire in March 2005. The new lease has a 60-month term expiring in June 2008. Under the new lease, the company has the option to purchase the facility at any time for approximately $34 million. In addition, if the company does not exercise its purchase option and the lessor sells the facility at the end of the lease term for a price that is less than approximately $34 million, the company will be required to guarantee the lessor a residual value on the property of up to $29 million. The lessor is a substantive independent leasing company that does not have the characteristics of a variable interest entity as defined by FIN No. 46 and is therefore not consolidated by the company. The company has accounted for the lease as an operating lease, and therefore, neither the leased facility nor the related debt is reported in the company's accompanying balance sheets. As stated above, under the lease, the company is required to provide a guaranteed residual value on the facility of up to $29 million to the lessor at the end of the 60-month lease term. Under the provisions of FIN No. 45, the company recognized a liability of approximately $1 million for the related residual value guarantee. The value of the guarantee was determined by computing the estimated present value of probability-weighted cash flows that might be expended under the guarantee, discounted using the company's incremental borrowing rate of approximately 6.5%. The company has recorded a liability for the fair value of the obligation with a corresponding asset recorded as prepaid rent which will be amortized to rental expense over the lease term. The liability will be subsequently assessed and adjusted to fair value as necessary. At December 31st31 of each year, accounting rules require a company to recognize a liability on its balance sheet for each defined benefit pension plan if the fair value of the assets of that pension plan is less than the present value of the pension obligation (the accumulated benefit obligation, or "ABO"). This liability is called a "minimum pension liability." Concurrently, any existing prepaid pension asset for the pension plan must be removed. These adjustments are recorded as a charge in "accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)" in stockholders' equity. If at any future year-end, the fair value of the pension plan assets exceeds the ABO, the charge to stockholders' equity would be reversed for such plan. Alternatively, if the fair market value of pension plan assets experiences further declines or the discount rate is reduced, additional charges to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) may be required at a future year-end. At December 31, 2002, for all of the company's defined benefit pension plans, as well as the defined benefit pension plan of Nihon Unisys Ltd. ("NUL") (an equity investment), the ABO exceeded the fair value of pension plan assets. At December 31, 2003, the difference between the ABO and the fair value of pension plan assets decreased. As a result, at December 31, 2003, the company was required to do the following: remove fromadjusted its assets $1.4 billion of prepaidminimum pension plan assets; increaseliability as follows: decreased its accrued pension plan liabilities by approximately $700 million; reduce$300 million, increased its investments at equity by approximately $80$6 million relating to the company's share of the change in NUL's minimum pension liability;liability, decreased prepaid pension asset by $56 million, and offset these changes by a chargecredit to other comprehensive loss in stockholders' equityincome of $2.2 billion,approximately $250 million, or $1.5 billion$165 million net of tax. This accounting hadhas no effect on the company's net income, liquidity or cash flows. Financial ratios and net worth covenants in the company's credit agreements and debt securities are unaffected by the chargecharges or credits to stockholders' equity caused by recordingadjusting a minimum pension liability. In accordance with regulations governing contributions to U.S. defined benefit pension plans, the company is not required to fund its U.S. defined benefit plan in 2003.2004. The company expects to make cash contributions of approximately $60$70 million to its other defined benefit pension plans during 2003.2004. 1716 Factors That May Affect Future Results - -------------------------------------- From time to time, the company provides information containing "forward- looking""forward-looking" statements, as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements provide current expectations of future events and include any statement that does not directly relate to any historical or current fact. Words such as "anticipates," "believes," "expects," "intends," "plans," "projects" and similar expressions may identify such forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements rely on assumptions and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause the company's actual results to differ materially from expectations. These other factors include, but are not limited to, those discussed below. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which that statement is made. The company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances that occur after the date on which the statement is made. The company's business is affected by changes in general economic and business conditions. The company continues to face a challenginghighly competitive business environment and economic environment.weakness in certain geographic regions. In this environment, many organizations are delaying planned purchases of information technology products and services. If the level of demand for the company's products and services declines in the future, the company's business could be adversely affected. The company's business could also be affected by acts of war, terrorism or natural disasters. Current world tensions could escalate and this could have unpredictable consequences on the world economy and on our business. The information services and technology markets in which the company operates include a large number of companies vying for customers and market share both domestically and internationally. The company's competitors include computer hardware manufacturers, software providers, systems integrators, consulting and other professional services firms, systems integrators, outsourcing providers, and infrastructure services providers, computer hardware manufacturers and software providers. Some of the company's competitors may develop competing products and services that offer better price-performanceprice performance or that reach the market in advance of the company's offerings. Some competitors also have or may develop greater financial and other resources than the company, with enhanced ability to compete for market share, in some instances through significant economic incentives to secure contracts. Some also may also be better able to compete for skilled professionals. Any of thisthese factors could have an adverse effect on the company's business. Future results will depend on the company's ability to mitigate the effects of aggressive competition on revenues, pricing and margins and on the company's ability to attract and retain talented people. The company operates in a highly volatile industry characterized by rapid technological change, evolving technology standards, short product life cycles and continually changing customer demand patterns. Future success will depend in part on the company's ability to anticipate and respond to these market trends and to design, develop, introduce, deliver or obtain new and innovative products and services on a timely and cost-effective basis. The company may not be successful in anticipating or responding to changes in technology, industry standards or customer preferences, and the market may not demand or accept its services and product offerings. In addition, products and services developed by competitors may make the company's offerings less competitive. The company's future results will depend in part on its ability to continue to accelerate growth in outsourcing and infrastructure services. The company's outsourcing contracts are multiyear engagements under which the company takes over management of a client's technology operations, business processes or networks. The company will need to maintain a strong financial position in order to grow its outsourcing business. In a number of these arrangements, the company hires certain of its clients' employees and may become responsible for the related employee obligations, such as pension and severance commitments. 17 In addition, system development activity on outsourcing contracts may require the company to make significant upfront investments. As long-term relationships, these outsourcing contracts provide a base of recurring revenue. However, in the early phases of these contracts, gross margins may be lower than in later years when the work force and facilities have been rationalized for efficient operations, and an integrated systems solution has been implemented. Future results will depend on the company's ability to effectively complete the rationalizations and solution implementations. 18 Future results will also depend in part on the company's ability to drive profitable growth in consulting and systems integration and consulting. The company's systems integration and consulting business has been adversely affected by the current economic slowdown. In this economic environment, customers have been delaying systems integration projects.integration. The company's ability to grow profitably in this business will depend in part on an improvement in economic conditions and a pick-up in demand for systems integration projects. It will also depend on the success of the actions the company has taken to enhance the skills base and management team in this business and to refocus the business on integrating best-of-breed, standards-based solutions to solve client needs. In addition, profit margins in this business are largely a function of the rates the company is able to charge for services and the chargeability of its professionals. If the company is unable to maintain the rates it charges or appropriate chargeability for its professionals, profit margins will suffer. The rates the company is able to charge for services are affected by a number of factors, including clients' perception of the company's ability to add value through its services; introduction of new services or products by the company or its competitors; pricing policies of competitors; and general economic conditions. Chargeability is also affected by a number of factors, including the company's ability to transition employees from completed projects to new engagements;engagements, and its ability to forecast demand for services and thereby maintain an appropriate head count. Future results will also depend, in part, on market acceptance of the company's high-end enterprise servers. In its technology business, the company is focusing its resources on high-end enterprise servers based on its Cellular MultiProcessing (CMP) architecture. The company's CMP servers are designed to provide mainframe-class capabilities with compelling price-performance by making use of standards-based technologies such as Intel chips and Microsoft operating system software. The company has transitioned both its legacy ClearPath servers and its Intel-based ES7000s to the CMP platform, creating a common platform for all the company's high-end server lines. Future results will depend, in part, on customer acceptance of the new CMP-based ClearPath Plus systems and the company's ability to maintain its installed base for ClearPath and to develop next-generation ClearPath products that are purchased by the installed base. In addition, future results will depend, in part, on the company's ability to generate new customers and increase sales of the Intel-basedIntel- based ES7000 line. The company believes there is significant growth potential in the developing market for high-end, Intel-based servers running Microsoft operating system software. However, competition in this new market is likely to intensify in coming years, and the company's ability to succeed will depend on its ability to compete effectively against enterprise server competitors with more substantial resources and its ability to achieve market acceptance of the ES7000 technology by clients, systems integrators, and independent software vendors. A number of the company's long-term contracts for infrastructure services, outsourcing, help desk and similar services do not provide for minimum transaction volumes. As a result, revenue levels are not guaranteed. In addition, some of these contracts may permit termination or may impose other penalties if the company does not meet the performance levels specified in the contracts. 18 Some of the company's systems integration contracts are fixed-priced contracts under which the company assumes the risk for delivery of the contracted services and products at an agreed-upon fixed price. At times the company has experienced problems in performing some of these fixed-price contracts on a profitable basis and has provided periodically for adjustments to the estimated cost to complete them. Future results will depend on the company's ability to perform these services contracts profitably. The company frequently enters into contracts with governmental entities. Risks and uncertainties associated with these government contracts include the availability of appropriated funds and contractual provisions that allow governmental entities to terminate agreements at their discretion before the end of their terms. 19 The success of the company's business is dependent on strong, long-term client relationships and on its reputation for responsiveness and quality. As a result, if a client is not satisfied with the company's services or products, its reputation could be damaged and its business adversely affected. In addition, if the company fails to meet its contractual obligations, it could be subject to legal liability, which could adversely affect its business, operating results and financial condition. The company has commercial relationships with suppliers, channel partners and other parties that have complementary products, services or skills. Future results will depend, in part, on the performance and capabilities of these third parties, on the ability of external suppliers to deliver components at reasonable prices and in a timely manner, and on the financial condition of, and the company's relationship with, distributors and other indirect channel partners. Approximately 53% of the company's total revenue derives from international operations. The risks of doing business internationally include foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, changes in political or economic conditions, trade protection measures, import or export licensing requirements, multiple and possibly overlapping and conflicting tax laws, and weaker intellectual property protections in some jurisdictions. The company cannot be sure that its services and products do not infringe on the intellectual property rights of third parties, and it may have infringement claims asserted against it or against its clients. These claims could cost the company money, prevent it from offering some services or products, or damage its reputation. 20 Item 4. Controls and Procedures - ------- ----------------------- The company's management, with the participation of the company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the company's disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2003.March 31, 2004. Based on this evaluation, the company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective for gathering, analyzing and disclosing the information the company is required to disclose in the reports it files under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Such evaluation did not identify any change in the company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2003March 31, 2004 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the company's internal control over financial reporting. 2119 Part II - OTHER INFORMATION - ------- ----------------- Item 6.
