The quarterly information is labeled using a calendar convention; that is, first quarter is consistently labeled as ending on March 31, second quarter as ending on June 30, and third quarter as ending on September 30. It is management's long-standing practice to establish interim closing dates using a "fiscal" calendar, which requires the businesses to close their books on a Friday near these quarter-end dates in order to normalize the potentially disruptive effects of quarterly closings on business processes. The effects of this practice only exist for interim periods within a reporting year.
The Company maintains multiple grantor trusts to fund certain non-qualified pension plans. These trusts were valued at $216$215 million and $220$209 million as of March 31, 2022,2023, and December 31, 2021,2022, respectively, and are

7.6. REVENUE
Disaggregation of Revenue
The Company's contracts with customers typically fall into one of four categories: firm fixed-price, fixed-price incentive, cost-type, and time and materials.
•Firm Fixed-Price Contracts - A firm fixed-price contract is a contract For more information on the Company's contracts, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in which the specified scope of work is agreed to for a price that is predetermined by bid or negotiation and not generally subject to adjustment regardless of costs incurred by the contractor.
•Fixed-Price Incentive Contracts - Fixed-price incentive contracts provide for reimbursementPart II, Item 7 of the contractor's allowable costs, but are subject to a cost-share limit that affects profitability. Fixed-price incentive contracts effectively become firm fixed-price contracts once the cost-share limit is reached.
•Cost-Type Contracts - Cost-type contracts provide for reimbursement of the contractor's allowable costs plus a fee that represents profit. Cost-type contracts generally require that the contractor use its reasonable efforts to accomplish the scope of the work within some specified time and some stated dollar limitation.
•Time and Materials - Time and materials contracts specify a fixed hourly billing rate for each direct labor hour expended and reimbursement for allowable material costs and expenses.
The Company monitors its policies and procedures with respect to its contractsCompany's 2022 Annual Report on a regular basis to ensure consistent application under similar terms and conditions, as well as compliance with all applicable government regulations. In addition, the Defense Contract Audit Agency ("DCAA") routinely audits the costs the Company incurs that are allocated to U.S. Government contracts.Form 10-K.
The following tables present revenues on a disaggregated basis, in a manner that reconciles with the Company's reportable segment disclosures, for the following categories: product versus service type, customer type, contract type, and major program. The Company believes that this levelbasis:

10. INTANGIBLE ASSETS
The Company's intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis or a method based on the pattern of benefits over their estimated useful lives. Net intangible assets consist primarily of amounts relating to customer relationships and existing contract backlog within Mission Technologies, as well as nuclear-powered aircraft carrier and submarine program intangible assets, with an aggregate weighted-average useful life of 29 years based on the long life cycle of the related programs. Aggregate amortization expense was $35 million and $13 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
In connection with the Alion purchase in 2021, the Company recorded $720 million of intangible assets pertaining to customer relationships and existing contract backlog, which is being amortized using the pattern of benefits method over a weighted-average life of 15 years.
11.8. INCOME TAXES
The Company's earnings are primarily domestic, and its effective income tax rates on earnings from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, were 20.9% and 2021, were 20.5% and 14.5%, respectively. The higher effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2022, was primarily attributable to a tax loss associated with the sale of the Company’s oil and gas business recorded in 2021.
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company’s effective tax raterespectively, which did not differ materially from the federal statutory corporate income tax rate of 21%. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company’s effective tax rate differed from the federal statutory tax rate primarily as a result of the loss associated with the sale of its oil and gas business.
The Company's unrecognized tax benefits increased by $2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022.2023. As of March 31, 2022,2023, the estimated amounts of the Company's unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, were liabilities of $83$92 million. Assuming a sustainment of these tax positions, thea reversal of $64$70 million of the accrued amounts would favorably affect the Company's effective federal income tax rate in future periods.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. For the three months ended March 31, 2022,2023, interest resulting from the unrecognized tax benefits noted above increased income tax expense by $1 million.
Non-current state income taxes include deferred state income taxes, which reflect the change in deferred state tax assets and liabilities, and the tax expense or benefit associated with changes in unrecognized state tax benefits in the relevant period. These amounts are recorded within operating income. Current period state income tax expense is charged to contract costs and included in cost of sales and service revenues in segment operating income.
12.9. INVESTIGATIONS, CLAIMS, AND LITIGATION
The Company is involved in legal proceedings before various courts and administrative agencies, and is periodically subject to government examinations, inquiries and investigations. Pursuant to FASB ASCAccounting Standards Codification 450 Contingencies, the Company has accrued for losses associated with investigations, claims, and litigation when, and to the extent that, loss amounts related to the investigations, claims, and litigation are probable and can be reasonably estimated. The actual losses that might be incurred to resolve such investigations, claims, and litigation may be higher or lower than the amounts accrued. ForThe Company has also provided footnote
disclosure for matters wherefor which a material loss is probable or reasonably possible and the amount of loss cannot be reasonably estimated, but the Company is able to reasonably estimate a range of possible losses, the Company will disclose such estimated range in these notes. This estimated range is based on information currently available to the Company and involves elements of judgment and significant uncertainties. Any estimated range of possible loss doesreserve has not represent the Company's maximum possible loss exposure. For matters as to which the Company is not able to reasonably estimate a possible loss or range of loss, the Company will indicate the reasons why it is unable to estimate the possible loss or range of loss. For matters not specifically described in these notes, the Company does not believe, based on information currently available to it, that it is reasonably possible that the liabilities, if any, arising from such investigations, claims, and litigation will have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. The Company has, in certain cases, provided disclosure regarding certain matters for which the Company believes at this time that been accrued because
the likelihood of a material loss is remote.not probable.
False Claims Act Complaint - In 2016, the Company was made aware that it is a defendant in a qui tam False Claims Act lawsuit pending in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida related to the Company’s purchases of allegedly non-conforming parts from a supplier for use in connection with U.S. Government contracts. In August 2019, the Department of Justice (“DoJ”) declined to intervene in the lawsuit, and the lawsuit was unsealed. The court dismissed the complaint in September 2021, and the plaintiff has appealed the dismissal to the United States Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit.
Insurance Claims - In September 2020, the Company filed a complaint against 32 reinsurers in the Superior Court, State of Vermont, Franklin Unit, seeking a judgment declaring that the Company's business interruption and other losses associated with COVID-19 are covered by the Company's property insurance program. A total of 32 reinsurers are named as
defendants in the complaint. The Company also has initiated arbitration proceedings against 6six other reinsurers seeking similar relief. Prior to filing the complaint and initiating the arbitration proceedings, the Company provided a notice of loss to the reinsurers, but, to date, none of the reinsurers have acknowledged coverage. The full extent of the Company's losses resulting from COVID-19 have not yet been determined. In July 2021, the Vermont court granted the reinsurers’ motion for judgment on the pleadings, finding that, because the Company continued to operate through the pandemic,which would have ended the Company’s reduction of business not accompanied by a complete loss of use fell short of the required “direct physical loss or damage to property.”claim. The Company has appealed the decision to the Vermont Supreme Court. AlthoughCourt, which reversed and remanded the Company still believes its position is well-founded, nolower court’s decision in September 2022, allowing the Company’s claim to proceed. No assurances can be provided regarding the ultimate resolution of this matter.
In September 2021, the Company filed a complaint in the Superior Court of Delaware, seeking a judgment against certain insurers for breach of contract and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing under three representations and warranties insurance policies purchased in connection with the Company’s acquisition of Hydroid. The policies insure the Company against losses relating to the seller’s breach of certain representations and warranties in the Hydroid acquisition agreement. The coverage limit under the insurance policies is $70 million, and the Company believes it has incurred losses equal to at least that amount as a result of breaches of the acquisition agreement. No assurances can be provided regarding the ultimate resolution of this matter.
U.S. Government Investigations and Claims - Departments and agencies of the U.S. Government have the authority to investigate various transactions and operations of the Company, and the results of such investigations may lead to administrative, civil, or criminal proceedings, the ultimate outcome of which could be fines, penalties, repayments or compensatory, treble, or other damages. U.S. Government regulations provide that certain findings against a contractor may also lead to suspension or debarment from future U.S. Government contracts or the loss of export privileges. Any suspension or debarment would have a material effect on the Company because of its reliance on government contracts.
Asbestos Related Claims - HII and its predecessors-in-interest are defendants in a longstanding series of cases that have been and continue to be filed in various jurisdictions around the country, wherein former and current employees and various third parties allege exposure to asbestos containing materials while on or associated with HII premises or while working on vessels constructed or repaired by HII. The cases allege various injuries, including those associated with pleural plaque disease, asbestosis, cancer, mesothelioma, and other alleged asbestos related conditions. In some cases, several of HII's former executive officers are also named as defendants. In some instances, partial or full insurance coverage is available tofor the Company for its liability and that of its former executive officers.Company's liabilities. The costs to resolve cases during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, and 2021, were immaterialnot material individually andor in the aggregate. The Company’s estimate of asbestos-related liabilities is subject to uncertainty because liabilities are influenced by numerousmany variables that are inherently difficult to predict. Key variables include the number and type of new claims, the litigation process from jurisdiction to jurisdiction and from case to case, reforms made by state and federal courts, and the passage of state or federal tort reform legislation. Although the Company believes the ultimate resolution of current cases will not have a material effect on its condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows, it cannot predict what new or revised claims or litigation might be asserted or what information might come to light and can, therefore, give no assurances regarding the ultimate outcome of asbestos related litigation.
Other Litigation - The Company and its predecessor-in-interest have been in litigation with the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela (the "Republic") since 2002 over a contract for the repair, refurbishment, and modernization at Ingalls of 2two foreign-built frigates. In March 2014,Following an arbitration proceeding between the Company filed an arbitral statement of claim asserting breaches of the contract. The Republic denied the Company’s allegations and asserted counterclaims. Inparties, in February 2018, the arbitral tribunal awarded the Company approximately $151 million on its claims and awarded the Republic approximately $22 million on its counterclaims. The Company is seeking to enforce and execute upon the award in multiple jurisdictions. No assurances can be provided regarding the ultimate resolution of this matter.
The Company is party to various other claims, legal proceedings, and investigations that arise in the ordinary course of business, including U.S. Government investigations that could result in administrative, civil, or criminal proceedings involving the Company. The Company is a contractor with the U.S. Government, and such proceedings can therefore include False Claims Act allegations against the Company. Although the Company believes that the resolution of these other claims, legal proceedings, and investigations will not have a material effect on its condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows, the Company cannot predict what new or revised claims or litigation might be asserted or what information might come to light and can, therefore, give no assurances regarding the ultimate outcome of these matters.
13.10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Contract Performance Contingencies - Contract profit margins may include estimates of revenues for matters on which the customer and the Company have not reached agreement, such as settlements in the process of negotiation, contract changes, claims, and requests for equitable adjustment for unanticipated contract costs. These estimates are based upon management's best assessment of the underlying causal events and circumstances and recognized to the extent of expected recovery based upon contractual entitlements and the probability of successful negotiation with the customer. As of March 31, 2022,2023, amounts recognized in connection with claims and requests for equitable adjustment were not material individually or in the aggregate.
Guarantees of Performance Obligations - From time to time in the ordinary course of business, HII enters into joint ventures, teaming agreements, and other business arrangements in connection with the Company's products and services or to pursue strategic objectives. The Company attempts to limit its exposure under these arrangements to its investment or the extent of obligations under the applicable contract. In some cases, however, HII may be required to guarantee performance of the arrangement's obligations and, in such cases, generally obtains cross-indemnification from the other members of the arrangement.
In the ordinary course of business, the Company may guarantee obligations of its subsidiaries under certain contracts. Generally, the Company is liable under such guarantees only if its subsidiary is unable to perform its obligations. Historically, the Company has not incurred any substantial liabilities resulting from these guarantees. As of March 31, 2022, the Company was not aware of any existing event of default that would require it to satisfy any of these guarantees.
Environmental Matters - The estimated cost to complete environmental remediation has been accrued when it is probable that the Company will incur such costs in the future to address environmental conditions at currently or formerly owned or leased operating facilities, or at sites where it has been named a Potentially Responsible Party ("PRP") by the Environmental Protection Agency or similarly designated by another environmental agency, and the related costs can be estimated by management. These accruals do not include any litigation costs related to environmental
matters, nor do they include amounts recorded as asset retirement obligations. To assess the potential impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements, management estimates the range of reasonably possible remediation costs that could be incurred by the Company, taking into account currently available facts on each site, as well as the current state of technology and prior experience remediating contaminated sites. These estimates are reviewed periodically and adjusted to reflect changes in facts and technical and legal circumstances. Management estimates that as of March 31, 2022,2023, the probable estimable future cost for environmental remediation was immaterial. Factors that could result in changes to the Company's estimates include: modification of planned remedial actions, increases or decreases in the estimated time required to remediate, changes to the determination of legally responsible parties, discovery of more extensive contamination than anticipated, changes in laws and regulations affecting remediation requirements, and improvements in remediation technology. Should other PRPs not pay their allocable share of remediation costs, the Company may incur costs exceeding those already estimated and accrued. In addition, there are certain potential remediation sites where the costs of remediation cannot be reasonably estimated.material. Although management cannot predict whether new information gained as remediation progresses or the Company incurs additional remediation obligations will materially affect the estimated liability accrued, management does not believe that future remediation expenditures will have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Financial Arrangements - In the ordinary course of business, HII uses letters of credit issued by commercial banks to support certain leases, insurance policies, and contractual performance obligations, as well as surety bonds issued by insurance companies principally to support the Company's self-insured workers' compensation plans. As of March 31, 2022,2023, the Company had $15$14 million in issued but undrawn letters of credit and $276$360 million of surety bonds outstanding.
U.S. Government Claims - From time to time, the U.S. Government communicates to the Company potential claims, disallowed costs, and penalties concerning prior costs incurred by the Company with which the U.S. Government disagrees. When such preliminary findings are presented, the Company and U.S. Government representatives engage in discussions, from which the Company evaluates the merits of the claims and assesses the amounts being questioned. Although the Company believes that the resolution of any of these matters will not have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows, it cannot predict the ultimate outcome of these matters.
Other Matters - In 1985, the Company and the U.S. Navy entered into a settlement agreement to resolve disputes associated with billing and allocating to contracts the cost of workers’ compensation self-insurance, among other matters. In 2016, the DCAA opined thatConsistent with the 1985 settlement agreement, didthe Company has not comply with certainrecovered cumulative billable costs resulting from the different treatment of workers' compensation costs between CAS standards and referredFAS. Under the matter to1985 settlement agreement, these costs would be recovered in future periods. In December 2020, a U.S. Navy Contracting Officer. In December 2020, the Contracting Officer issued a determination that the 1985 settlement agreement did not comply with CAS and directed the Company to develop and implement a different process to bill and allocate the cost of workers’ compensation self-insurance. Under the 1985 settlement agreement, the Company has not recognized as allowable cumulative billable costs of approximately $120 million resulting from the difference between CAS and U.S. GAAP Financial Accounting Standards ("FAS") treatment of workers’ compensation cost. Under the 1985 settlement agreement, these costs would be recognized as allowable billable costs in future periods. Though theThe Company believes the 1985 settlement agreement is CAS-compliant and cannot be unilaterally terminated, but the Company will seekis continuing to negotiate a resolution of the matter with the Contracting Officer. If a resolution results in the use of a different treatment or billing methodology that does not provide for the Company to recognize as allowable the CAS to FAS difference, the resolution could have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows, including an inability to recover any or all of the $120 million of costs not yet billed to the customer.
In JanuaryAugust 2022, the Navy Contracting Officer issued a written determination that the Ingalls Shipbuilding MaterialProperty Management and Accounting System had threea significant deficiencies,deficiency, resulting in a 5%2% withhold of payments on certain invoices issued under one contract. Ingalls Shipbuilding subsequently submittedIn response, the Company proposed a corrective action plan, which the Navy approved. Subsequently, the Navy terminated the withhold and released withheld funds to the Company.
In January 2023, the Company entered into discussions with a Mission Technologies' customer to amend an
existing contract to address manufacturing issues. Although final agreement has not been reached, the Company recorded during the period ended March 31, 2023, a provision for contract loss that was approvednot material to the financial statements as a whole.
National Security Cutter (“NSC”) 11 Steel Plates Issue - After the Company’s Ingalls Shipbuilding segment began fabrication of Friedman (NSC 11) for the U.S. Coast Guard, the Coast Guard initiated communications with Ingalls about the degree of corrosion of certain steel plates Ingalls was using to fabricate Friedman (NSC 11), as well as the process Ingalls was using to remediate the corrosion. The Coast Guard subsequently informed Ingalls of its objection to the process Ingalls was using to remediate corrosion in February 2022,Friedman (NSC 11) steel plates and requested that Ingalls follow a different remediation process or, alternatively, reconstruct affected fabricated units with new steel.

Collective Bargaining Agreements - Of the Company's approximately 44,00043,000 employees, approximately 45% are covered by a total of 9nine collective bargaining agreements and 1one site stabilization agreement. Newport News has 3 collective bargaining agreements covering represented employees, including 1 with United Steelworkers Local 8888 (Newport News) (the “USWs”), which covers approximately 50% of Newport News employees. The collective bargaining agreement with the USWs expired in November 2021, and the Company reached a tentative agreement with representatives of the USWs in February 2022. The members of the USWs bargaining unit ratified the contract in March 2022. The Company believes its relationship with its employees is satisfactory.
Purchase Obligations - Periodically the Company enters into agreements to purchase goods or services that are enforceable and legally binding on the Company and specify all significant terms, including: fixed or minimum quantities to be purchased; fixed, minimum, or variable price provisions; and the approximate timing of the transaction. These obligations are primarily comprised of open purchase order commitments to vendors and subcontractors pertaining to funded contracts.

In March 2022, the Company concluded negotiations on one of its collective bargaining agreements, which required an amendment to one of the Company's pension plans. As a result of the amendment, the remeasurement of the plan increased the pension liability and pre-tax accumulated other comprehensive loss by approximately $97 million.2023.
15.12. STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS
During the three months ended March 31, 20222023 and 2021,2022, the Company issued new stock awards as follows:
Restricted Performance Stock Rights - For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company granted approximately 0.1 million RPSRs at a weighted average share price of $215.20. These rights are subject to cliff vesting on December 31, 2025.

Business Environment
COVID-19 Pandemic - The COVID-19 global pandemic has had wide-ranging effects onWe continue to see uncertainty in the global health environment and disrupted the global and U.S. economies and financial markets, including impacts toeconomy, our employees, customers, suppliers, and communities (collectively, “COVID-19 Events”). COVID-19 Events have also impacted our operations, and the extent of future impacts are uncertain. The most significant areas of impact have been the disruption of our employees’ ability to work effectively, disruption in our supply chain, disruption of the U.S. Government'sindustry, and our other customers' abilities to perform their obligations, and impact on pension assets and other investment performance.
We have aggressively managed our response to the uncertainties regarding COVID-19 Events, and we have incurred costs to respond to COVID-19 Events, including costscompany, with challenges for paid leave, quarantining employees, vaccinations, and recurring facility cleaning. Our shipyards and other facilities have remained open and productive,
but we continue to experience challenges meeting our hiring requirements, which has impacted our operations due to delay and disruption from a shortage of critical skills and out-of-sequence work.
While costs related to COVID-19 Events are allowable under U.S. Government contracts, our contract estimates reflect profit margin impact uncertainty, because such costs may not result in equitable adjustments, particularly on firm fixed-price and fixed-price incentive contracts, or may not be adequately covered by insurance. Reinsurers under our property insurance have failed to acknowledge coverage for various losses related to COVID-19, and we filed a complaint in state court in Vermont seeking a judgment declaring that our business interruption and other losses associated with COVID-19 are covered by our property insurance program. We also initiated arbitration proceedings against other reinsurers seeking similar relief. The Vermont court dismissed our complaint in response to a motion of the reinsurers for judgment on the pleadings, and we have appealed the decision. Although we continue to believe that our position is well-founded, no assurance can be provided regarding the ultimate resolution of this matter. See Note 12: Investigations, Claims, and Litigation.
We have also focused on actively supporting our customers, suppliers, and communities. We have been proactive engaging with our U.S. Government customers regarding future contract adjustments. While there has been no change in contract terms or substantial degradation in timely payments from customers, we have experienced delays in decisions on certain contract awards. Our suppliers have experienced reductions in employee attendance and hiring challenges, similar to us, which has affected their performance and delayed material deliveries. We are therefore continuing to monitor material availability and affordability. We are unable to predict how our customers and suppliers, will allocate resources in the future as they react to the evolving demands of the COVID-19 response.labor shortages, supply chain challenges, and inflation, among other impacts.
U.S. Government Contracts - Long-term uncertainty exists with respect to overall levels of defense spending across the future years' defense plan, and it is likely that U.S. Government discretionary spending levels will continue to be subject to significant pressure.
The fiscal year 2022 budget cycle ultimately concluded with the passage of the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2022, signed into law March 15, 2022. Final defense appropriations broadly supported shipbuilding programs, including funding for two Arleigh Burke class (DDG 51) destroyers and two Virginia class attack submarines. Additionally, the appropriations measure provided $250 million for Advance Procurement ("AP") funding for LPD 32 (unnamed), additional AP for a third Arleigh Burke class (DDG 51) destroyer in fiscal year 2023, funding for the Columbia class ballistic-missile (SSBN 826) submarine program, USS Gerald R. Ford class (CVN 78) nuclear aircraft carrier programs, and the refueling and complex overhaul ("RCOH") of USS John C. Stennis (CVN 74).
The President submitted the fiscal year 20232024 budget request on March 28, 2022,9, 2023, and itthe request is now under consideration by Congress. The budget request reflects continued investment in shipbuilding, funding the second Columbia class (SSBN 826) submarine, two amphibious ships, LPD 32 (unnamed) and LHA 9 (unnamed),Virginia class (SSN 774) attack submarines, two Flight III Arleigh Burke class (DDG 51) surface combatants,destroyers, and two Block Vthe final increment of Virginia Fallujahclass submarines equipped with (LHA 9). Additionally, the Virginia Payload Module, andbudget request continues funding for USS Gerald R. Fordclass (CVN 78) nuclear aircraft carriers and aircraft carrier programs, carrier RCOHrefueling programs, and construction of Columbia class (SSBN 826) submarines. Additionally, the budget request includes investment in the submarine industrial base. The U.S. Marine Corps included a LPD Flight II amphibious ship (LPD 33) in its fiscal year 2024 unfunded priority list, which was submitted to the Congress shortly after the release of the budget request.
Long-term funding for certain programs in which we participate mayPolitical and Economic Environment - The global geopolitical and economic environment continues to be reduced, delayed, or canceled. In addition, spending cuts and/or reprioritization of defense investment could adversely affect the viability of our suppliers, subcontractors,impacted

actors, including major global powers, as well as terrorist organizations, emerging nuclear tensions, diverse regional
security concerns, and political instability. These global threats persist across all domains, from undersea to space
to cyber, and the prime contractor as a result of lack of government funding or reductions or delays in government funding. Significant reductionsglobal market for defense products, services, and solutions is driven by these complex and

Although it is difficult to determine specific impacts, we expect that over the longer term, the budget environment may result in fewer contract awards and lower revenues, profits, and cash flows from our U.S. Government contracts. It is likely budget and program decisions made in this environment will have long-term impacts on HII and the entire defense industry.Form 10-K.
Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates, and Judgments
As discussed in our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2021, we consider our policies relating to the following matters to be critical accounting policies and estimates:
•Revenue recognition;
•Purchase accounting, goodwill, and intangible assets;
•Litigation, commitments, and contingencies;
•Retirement related benefit plans; and
•Workers' compensation.
As of March 31, 2022,2023, there had been no material changes to the foregoing critical accounting policies, estimates, and judgments since December 31, 2021.
We have incorporated realized and estimated future effects of COVID-19 Events, based upon current conditions and our judgment of the future impacts of COVID-19 Events, with respect to contract costs and revenue recognition, effective income tax rates, and the fair values of our long-lived assets, financial instruments, intangible assets, and goodwill recorded at our reporting units.
Contracts
We generate most of our revenues from long-term U.S. Government contracts for design, production, and support activities. Government contracts typically include the following cost elements: direct material, labor, and subcontracting costs, and certain indirect costs, including allowable general and administrative expenses. Unless otherwise specified in a contract, costs billed to contracts with the U.S. Government are treated as allowable and allocable costs under the Federal Acquisition Regulation ("FAR") and the U.S. Cost Accounting Standards ("CAS") regulations. Examples of costs incurred by us that are not allowable under the FAR and CAS regulations include certain legal costs, lobbying costs, charitable donations, interest expense, organizational costs, including certain merger and acquisition costs, and advertising costs.
Contract Fees - Negotiated contract fee structures include: fixed fee amounts, cost sharing arrangements to reward or penalize contractors for under- or over-cost target performance, respectively, positive award fees, and negative penalty arrangements. Profit margins may vary materially depending on the negotiated contract fee arrangements, percentage-of-completion of the contract, the achievement of performance objectives, and the stage of performance at which the right to receive fees, particularly under incentive and award fee contracts, is finally determined.
Award Fees - Certain contracts contain award fees based on performance criteria such as cost, schedule, quality, and technical performance. Award fees are determined and earned based on an evaluation by the customer of our performance against such negotiated criteria. We consider award fees to be variable consideration and generally include these fees in the transaction price using a most likely amount approach. Award fees are limited to the extent of funding allotted by the customer and available for performance and those amounts for which a significant reversal of revenue is not probable.2022.

Operating Performance Assessment and Reporting
We manage and assess the performance of our business based on our performance on individual contracts and programs using the financial measures referred to below, with consideration given to the Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates, and Judgments referred to in this section. Our portfolio of long-term contracts is largely flexibly-priced. Therefore, sales tend to fluctuate in concert with costs across our large portfolio of active contracts, with operating income being a critical measure of operating performance. Under FAR rules that govern our business with the U.S. Government, most types of costs are allowable, and we do not focus on individual cost groupings, such as cost of sales or general and administrative expenses, as much as we do on total contract costs, which are a key factor in determining contract operating income. As a result, in evaluating our operating performance, we look primarily at changes in sales and service revenues, as well as operating income, including the effects of significant changes in operating income as a result of changes in contract financial estimates and the use of the cumulative catch-up method of accounting in accordance with GAAP. This approach is consistent with the long-term life cycle of our contracts, as management assesses the bidding of each contract by focusing on net sales and operating profit and monitors performance in a similar manner through contract completion. Consequently, our discussion of business segment performance focuses on net sales and operating profit, consistent with our approach for managing our business.

Sales and Service Revenues
Period-to-period revenues reflect performance under new and ongoing contracts. Changes in sales and service
revenues are typically expressed in terms of volume. Unless otherwise described, volume generally refers to
increases (or decreases) in reported revenues due to varying production activity levels, delivery rates, or service
levels on individual contracts. Volume changes will typically carry a corresponding income change based on the
profit margin rate for a particular contract.
Sales and service revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2023, increased $98 million, or 4%, compared to the same period in 2022, primarily due to higher volumes at Newport News and Mission Technologies, partially offset by lower volumes at Ingalls.
Cost of Sales and Service Revenues
Cost of sales for both product sales and service revenues consists of materials, labor, and subcontracting costs, as well as an allocation of indirect costs for overhead. We manage the type and amount of costs at the contract level, which is the basis for estimating our total costs at completion of our contracts. Unusual fluctuations in operating performance driven by changes in a specific cost element across multiple contracts are described in our analysis.
Sales and Service Revenues
Sales and service revenues were comprised as follows: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Product sales for the three months ended March 31, 2022, increased $3 million from the same period in 2021. Ingalls product sales decreased $26 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily as a result of
lower volumes in surface combatants and amphibious assault ships. Newport News product sales increased $20 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily as a result of higher volumes in submarines and aircraft carriers. Mission Technologies product sales increased $9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily as a result of higher volumes in unmanned systems and defense and federal solutions ("DFS").
Service revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2022, increased $295 million, or 53%, compared with the same period in 2021. Ingalls service revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2022, increased $8 million, primarily as a result of higher volumes in amphibious assault ship services, partially offset by lower volumes in surface combatant services. Newport News service revenues decreased $37 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily as a result of lower volumes in aircraft carriers and naval nuclear support services. Mission Technologies service revenues increased $324 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily as a result of higher volumes in DFS services, partially offset by the divestiture of our oil and gas business in the first quarter of 2021 and lower volumes in Fleet Sustainment.

Cost of Product Sales
Cost of product sales for the three months ended March 31, 2022, increased $14 million, or 1%, compared with the same period in 2021. Ingalls cost of product sales decreased $10 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily as a result of volume decreases described above. Newport News cost of product sales increased $20 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily as a result of volume increases described above. Mission Technologies cost of product sales increased $6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, driven by volume increases described above. Cost of product sales related to the Operating FAS/CAS Adjustment decreased $2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as described below.
Cost of product sales as a percentage of product sales increased from 84.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2021, to 85.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to lower risk retirement on the Virginia class (SSN 774) submarine program and Bougainville (LHA 8), as well as a contract incentive on USS Jack H. Lucas (DDG 125) in the first quarter of 2021, partially offset by higher risk retirement on USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN 78) and Fort Lauderdale (LPD 28) following its delivery, as well as a favorable change in the Operating FAS/CAS Adjustment.
Cost of Service Revenues
Cost of service revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2022, increased $277 million, or 57%, compared with the same period in 2021. Ingalls cost of service revenues increased $7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily as a result of higher volumes described above. Newport News cost of service revenues decreased $35 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily as a result of lower volumes described above. Mission Technologies cost of service revenues increased $306 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily as a result of higher volumes described above. Cost of service revenues related to the Operating FAS/CAS Adjustment decreased $1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as described below.
CostRefer to "Segment Operating Results" and "Product and Service Analysis" in this section for details related to cost of sales for both product sales and service revenues as a percentage of service revenues increased from 86.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2021, to 89.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily driven by lower performance in DFS services and higher amortization of purchased intangible assets, partially offset by year-to-year variances in contract mix and a favorable change in the Operating FAS/CAS Adjustment.revenues.
Income (Loss) from Operating Investments, Net
The activities of our operating investments are closely aligned with the operations of the segments holding the investments. We therefore record income related to earnings from equity method investments in our operating income.
IncomeRefer to "Segment Operating Results" in this section for details related to income from operating investments, net for the three months ended March 31, 2022, was flat compared to 2021.
Other Income and Gains (Losses), Net
Other income and gains (losses), net was a net loss of $1 million and a net gain of $3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The unfavorable change of $4 million was primarily due to the gain on sale of our oil and gas business in the first quarter of 2021.investments.
General and Administrative Expenses
In accordance with industry practice and the regulations that govern the cost accounting requirements for government contracts, most general and administrative expenses are considered allowable and allocable costs on government contracts. These costs are allocated to contracts in progress on a systematic basis, and contract performance factors include this cost component as an element of cost.
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2022,2023, increased $11$3 million from the same period in 2021,2022, primarily due to higher overhead costs as a result of the acquisition of Alion in the third quarter of 2021 and current state income tax expense, partially offset by favorable changes in non-current state income taxes.taxes and overhead costs.
Operating Income
We consider operating income to be an important measure for evaluating our operating performance, and, consistent with industry practice, we define operating income as revenues less the related costs of producing the revenues and general and administrative expenses.
We internally manage our operations by reference to "segment operating income," which is defined as operating income before the Operating FAS/CAS Adjustment and non-current state income taxes, neither of which affects segment performance. Segment operating income is not a recognized measure under GAAP. When analyzing our operating performance, investors should use segment operating income in addition to, and not as an alternative for, operating income or any other performance measure presented in accordance with GAAP. It is a measure we use to evaluate our core operating performance. We believe segment operating income reflects an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations that, when viewed with our GAAP results, provides a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. We believe the measure is used by investors and is a useful indicator to measure our performance. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of segment operating income may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Refer to
"Segment Operating Results" in this section for details related to segment operating income, as well as activity within each segment.

FAS/CAS Adjustment and Operating FAS/CAS Adjustment
The FAS/CAS Adjustment reflects the difference between expenses for pension and other postretirement benefits determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP Financial Accounting Standards ("FAS") and the expenses for these items included in segment operating income in accordance with U.S. Government Cost Accounting Standards
("CAS"). The Operating FAS/CAS Adjustment excludes the following components of net periodic benefit costs: interest cost, expected return on plan assets, amortization of prior service cost (credit) and actuarial loss (gain), and settlement and curtailment effects.
The components of the Operating FAS/CAS Adjustment were as follows: | | | Three Months Ended March 31 | | | | | Three Months Ended March 31 | | | |
| | | 2022 over 2021 | | | | Three Months Ended March 31 | 2023 vs. 2022 | |

The Operating FAS/CAS Adjustment was a net expense of $37$19 million and $40$37 million for the three months ended March 31, 20222023 and 2021,2022, respectively. The favorable change in the Operating FAS/CAS Adjustment of $3 million was primarily driven by the more immediate recognition of higher interest rates.rates under FAS.
Non-current State Income Taxes
Non-current state income taxes include deferred state income taxes, which reflect the change in deferred state tax assets and liabilities, and the tax expense or benefit associated with changes in state unrecognized tax benefits in the relevant period. These amounts are recorded within operating income. Current period state income tax expense is charged to contract costs and included in cost of sales and service revenues in segment operating income.
Non-current state income tax expensebenefit for the three months ended March 31, 2022,2023, was $1$4 million, compared to non-current state income tax expense of $4$1 million for the same period in 2021.2022. The favorable change in non-current state income taxes was driven by a decrease in deferred state income tax expense, primarily attributable to an increase in expenses that are not currently deductiblethe timing of long-term contract income for income tax purposes.
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022, increased $5 million, compared with the same period in 2021, primarily due to borrowing under the Term Loan and the issuance of senior notes in August 2021.
Non-Operating Retirement Benefit
The non-operating retirement benefit includes the following components of net periodic benefit costs: interest cost, expected return on plan assets, amortization of prior service cost (credit) and actuarial loss (gain), and settlement and curtailment effects. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the favorable change in the non-operating retirement benefit of $25 million was primarily driven by higher 2021 returns on plan assets.
Other, Net
Other, net expense increased $8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared with the same period in 2021, primarily driven by losses on investments in marketable securities.
Federal and Foreign Income Taxes
Our effective income tax rates on earnings from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, were 20.5% and 14.5%, respectively. The higher effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2022, was primarily attributable to a tax loss associated with the sale of the Company’s oil and gas business recorded in 2021.
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, our effective tax rate did not differ materially from the federal statutory corporate income tax rate of 21%. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, our effective tax rate differed from the federal statutory rate primarily as a result of the loss associated with the sale of our oil and gas business. See Note 11: Income Taxes.

KEY SEGMENT FINANCIAL MEASURES
Sales and Service Revenues
Period-to-period revenues reflect performance under new and ongoing contracts. Changes in sales and service revenues are typically expressed in terms of volume. Unless otherwise described, volume generally refers to increases (or decreases) in reported revenues due to varying production activity levels, delivery rates, or service levels on individual contracts. Volume changes will typically carry a corresponding income change based on the margin rate for a particular contract.

Segment Operating Income
Segment operating income reflects the aggregate performance results of contracts within a segment. Excluded from this measure are certain costs not directly associated with contract performance, such as the Operating FAS/CAS Adjustment and non-current state income taxes. Changes in segment operating income are typically expressed in terms of volume, as discussed above, or performance. Performance refers to changes in contract profit margin rates. These changes typically relate to profit recognition associated with revisions to estimated costs at completion ("EAC") that reflect improved or deteriorated operating performance on that contract. Operating income changes are accounted for on a cumulative to date basis at the time an EAC change is recorded. Segment operating income may also be affected by, among other things, contract performance, the effects of workforce stoppages, the effects of natural disasters such as hurricanes, resolution of disputed items with the customer, recovery of insurance proceeds, and other discrete events. At the completion of a long-term contract, any originally estimated costs not incurred or reserves not fully utilized, such as warranty reserves, could also impact contract earnings. Where such items have occurred and the effects are material, a separate description is provided.

OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2023, was $24 million, compared with $26 million for the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily driven by a decrease in outstanding long-term debt from the prior year period.
Non-Operating Retirement Benefit
The non-operating retirement benefit includes the following components of net periodic benefit costs: interest cost, expected return on plan assets, amortization of prior service cost (credit) and actuarial loss (gain), and settlement and curtailment effects.
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the non-operating retirement benefit was $37 million, compared with $71 million for the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily driven by lower 2022 returns on plan assets.
Other, Net
Other, net income for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $9 million, compared with other, net expense of $7 million for the same period in 2022. The favorable change was primarily driven by realized and unrealized net gains in investments.
Federal and Foreign Income Taxes
Our effective income tax rates on earnings from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, were 20.9% and 20.5%, respectively, which did not differ materially from the federal statutory corporate income tax rate of 21%.
BACKLOG

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We seek to efficiently convert operating results into cash for deployment in operating our businesses, implementing our business strategy, and maximizing stockholder value. We use various financial measures to assist in capital deployment decision making, including net cash provided by operating activities and free cash flow. We believe these measures are useful to investors in assessing our financial performance.
The following table summarizes key components of cash flow provided by operating activities:

We have historically maintained a capital structure comprisingcomprised of a mix of equity and debt financing. We vary our
leverage both to optimize our equity return and to pursue acquisitions. We expect to meet our current debt
obligations as they come due through internally generated funds from current levels of operations and/or through refinancing in the debt markets prior to the maturity dates of our debt.
Cash Flows
We discuss below our significant operating, investing, and financing activities affecting cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 20222023 and 2021,2022, as classified on our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
Operating Activities
Cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2022,2023, was $83$9 million, compared with $43$83 million provided byused in operating activities for the same period in 2021.2022. The unfavorablefavorable change in operating cash flow was primarily due to changesa favorable change in trade working capital and income tax refunds in the first quarter of 2021, partially offset by lower contributions to retiree benefit plans.capital. The change in trade working capital was primarily driven by the timing of receipts of accounts receivable and payments of accounts payable.receivable.
We expect cash generated from operations in combination with our current cash and cash equivalents, as well as existing creditborrowing facilities, to be sufficient to service debt and retiree benefit plans, meet contractual obligations, and financefund capital expenditures for at least the next 12 calendar months beginning April 1, 20222023, and beyond such 12-month period based on our current business plan.plans.
Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2022,2023, was $43$60 million, compared with $46$43 million used in investing activities for the same period in 2021.2022. The change in investing cash was primarily driven by the dispositionincreased investment in one of our oilunconsolidated nuclear and gas business in the first quarter of 2021 and lower capital expenditures in 2022, partially offset by contribution of our San Diego Shipyard to aenvironmental joint venture in the first quarter of 2021.ventures. For 2022,2023, we expect our capital expenditures for maintenance and sustainment to be approximately 1.0% of annual revenues and our discretionary capital expenditures to be approximately 1.5% to 2.0% of annual revenues.
Financing Activities
Cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2022,2023, was $171$80 million, compared with $102$171 million used in financing activities for the same period in 2021.2022. The change in financing cash was primarily due to an increasea $90 million decrease in the repaymentprepayments of long-term debt of $100 million, an increase of $7 million in employee taxes on certain share-based payment arrangements, and a $1 million increase in cash dividend payments, partially offset by a decrease of $39 million in common stock repurchases.our Term Loan.
Free Cash Flow
Free cash flow represents cash provided by (used in) operating activities less capital expenditures net of related grant proceeds. Free cash flow is not a measure recognized under GAAP. Free cash flow has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, net earnings as a measure of our performance or net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. We believe free cash flow is an important liquidity measure for our investors because it provides them insight into our current and period-to-period performance and our ability to generate cash from continuing operations. We also use free cash flow as a key operating metric in assessing the performance of our business and as a key performance measure in evaluating management performance and determining incentive compensation. Free cash flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
The following table reconciles net cash (used in) provided byused in operating activities to free cash flow: | | | Three Months Ended March 31 | | 2022 over 2021 | | Three Months Ended March 31 | | 2023 vs. 2022 |

Governmental Regulation and Supervision
The U.S. Government has the ability, pursuant to regulations relating to contractor business systems, to decrease or withhold contract payments if it determines significant deficiencies exist in one or more such systems. As of March 31, 20222023 and 2021,2022, the cumulative amounts of payments withheld by the U.S. Government under our contracts subject to these regulations were not material to our liquidity or cash flows.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
In the ordinary course of business, we use letters of credit issued by commercial banks to support certain leases, insurance policies, and contractual performance obligations, as well as surety bonds issued by insurance companies principally to support our self-insured workers' compensation plans. As of March 31, 2022, $152023, $14 million in letters of credit were issued but undrawn and $276$360 million of surety bonds were outstanding. As of March 31, 2022,2023, we had no other significant off-balance sheet arrangements.

Interest Rates - Our floating rate financial instruments subject to interest rate risk include a $650 million Term Loan, a $1.5 billion Revolving Credit Facility, and a $1 billion commercial paper program. As of March 31, 2022,2023, we had $525$215 million outstanding on the Term Loan and no indebtedness outstanding under our Revolving Credit Facility or our commercial paper program. Based on the amounts outstanding under our Term Loan as of March 31, 2022,2023, an increase of 1% in interest rates would increase the interest expense on our debt by approximately $5$2 million on an annual basis.
Inflation - Macroeconomic factors have contributed, and we expect will continue to contribute, to increasing cost inflation for raw materials, components, and supplies. We mitigate some cost inflation risk by negotiating long-term agreements with certain raw material suppliers and incorporating price escalation provisions in customer contracts to the extent possible. We include assumptions of anticipated cost growth in the development of our cost of completion estimates, but if inflationary conditions continue over the long-term, our cost assumptions may not be sufficient to cover all cost escalation or may impact the availability of resources to execute the respective contracts. Persistent cost inflation over the long-term may have an adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
