SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND INFORMATION
This quarterly report on Form 10-Q (the “Quarterly Report”) contains forward-looking statements and cautionary statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Some of the forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terms such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “shall,” “should,” “would,” “could,” “seeks,” “aims,” “strives,” “targets,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “anticipates” or other comparable terms. Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, all matters that are not historical facts. They appear in a number of places throughout this Quarterly Report and include, without limitation, statements regarding our intentions, beliefs, assumptions or current expectations concerning, among other things, financial goals, financial position, results of operations, cash flows, prospects, strategies or expectations, and the impact of prevailing economic conditions.
Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which may be beyond our control. We caution you that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or outcomes and that actual performance and outcomes may differ materially from those made in or suggested by the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report. In addition, even if future performance and outcomes are consistent with the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report, those results or developments may not be indicative of results or developments in subsequent periods. New factors emerge from time to time that may cause our business not to develop as we expect, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. Factors that could cause actual results and outcomes to differ from those reflected in forward-looking statements include, without limitation:

See Note 15: Segment Information for further information regarding our business segments.
B.Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the accounts of DRS, its wholly owned subsidiaries and its controlling interests. Interests in joint ventures that are controlled by the Company, or for which the Company is otherwise deemed to be the primary beneficiary, are consolidated. For joint ventures in which the Company does not have a controlling interest, but exerts significant influence, the Company applies the equity method of accounting. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.
Interim Financial Statements. The unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.Commission (“SEC”). These rules and regulations permit some of the information and footnote disclosures included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP to be condensed or omitted.
These unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with our audited Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020 included in our registration statement2021 filed as Exhibit 99.1 to the Current Report on Form S-1, as amended (Registration No. 333-253583), which was declared effective by the SEC8-K filed on March 23, 2021.August 2, 2022.
C.Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant of these estimates and assumptions relate to the recognition of contract revenues and estimated costs to complete contracts in process, recoverability of reported amounts of goodwill, long-lived assets and intangible assets, valuation of pensions and other postretirement benefits, the valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities and the valuation of unrecognized tax benefits. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
D.Revenue Recognition
On January 1, 2018, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and the related amendments of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, which supersedes most previous U.S. GAAP revenue recognition guidance. As of the date of adoption, we elected the practical expedient for contract modifications, which allows us to assume that the terms of the contract that existed at the beginning of the earliest period presented have been in place since the inception of the contract on the basis that it is not practical to separately evaluate the effects of all prior contract modifications). Our revenues consist of sales of products (tangible goods) and sales of services to customers. We recognize the majority of our revenue from contracts with customers using an over time, cost-to-cost method of accounting. On certain other contracts, primarily time and material (“T&M”) and cost-plus contracts, revenue is recognized using the right-to-invoice practical expedient as we are contractually able to bill our customer based on control transferred to the customer. See Note 2.Revenue from Contracts with Customers for additional information regarding revenue recognition.

E.Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues includes materials, labor and overhead costs incurred in the manufacturing, design, and provision of products and services sold in the period as well as warranty costs. Material costs include raw materials, purchased components and sub-assemblies, outside processing and inbound freight costs. Labor and overhead costs consist of direct and indirect manufacturing costs, including wages and fringe benefits, operating supplies, depreciation and amortization, occupancy costs, and purchasing, receiving and inspection costs.
F.Research and Development Expenses
We conduct research and development (“R&D”) activities using our own funds (referred to as company-funded R&D or independent research and development (“IR&D”)) and under contractual arrangements with our customers (referred to as customer-funded R&D) to enhance existing products and services and to develop future products, solutions, and technologies. R&D costs include basic research, applied research, concept formulation studies, design, development, and related test activities. IR&D costs are allocated to customer contracts as part of the general

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
and administrative overhead costs and generally recoverable on our customer contracts with the U.S. Government. Customer-funded R&D costs are charged directly to the related customer contract. Substantially all R&D costs are charged to cost of revenues as incurred.
G.Foreign Currency
Significant transactions in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the approximate prevailing rate at the time of the transaction. Foreign exchange transaction gains and losses in the periods ended March 31,second quarter and first six months of 2022 and 2021 and March 31, 2020 were immaterial to the Company's results of operations. The operations of the Company's foreign subsidiaries are translated from the local (functional) currencies into U.S. dollars using weighted average rates of exchange during each monthly period. The rates of exchange at each balance sheet date are used for translating certain balance sheet accounts and gains or losses resulting from these translation adjustments are included in the accompanying Consolidated Balance SheetSheets as a component of other comprehensive earnings.
H.Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits with banks or other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.
I.Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable consist of amounts billed and currently due from customers. When events or conditions indicate that amounts outstanding from customers may become uncollectible,We maintain an allowance recorded in the Allowance for Credit Losses account that is estimated and recorded.recorded utilizing relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions and a reasonable and supportable forecast that affects the collectability of the related financial asset. See Note 3: Accounts Receivable for additional information regarding accounts receivable.
J.Inventories
Inventories are recorded at the lower of cost (determined by either actual, weighted average or first-in, first-out methods) or net realizable value, and include direct production costs as well as indirect costs, such as factory overhead. The net realizable value is calculated as the expected sales price in the course of normal operations net of estimated costs to finish and sell the goods. See Note 4: Inventories for additional information regarding inventories.
K.Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment is carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives of plant, machinery and equipment and building and building improvements generally range from 3 to 10 years and 15 to 40 years, respectively. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the improvements or the remaining life of the lease.
When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from the Consolidated Balance Sheet,Sheets, and the net gain or loss is included in the determination of net earnings. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred and renewals and improvements are

capitalized. See Note 5: Property, Plant and Equipment for additional information regarding property, plant and equipment.
L.Goodwill
On January 1, 2018, we early adopted ASU 2017-04, Intangibles ‐ Goodwill and Other (Topic 350), Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The standard simplifies the measurement of goodwill impairment by eliminating the requirement that an entity compute the implied fair value of goodwill based on the fair values of its assets and liabilities to measure impairment. Instead, goodwill impairment will be measured as the difference between the fair value and the carrying value of the reporting unit. Goodwill represents the excess purchase price paid to acquire a business over the fair value of net assets acquired. Goodwill is assigned to reporting units and is reviewed for impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis, or whenever changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. A reporting unit is an operating segment, or one level below that operating segment (the component level) if discrete financial information is prepared and regularly reviewed by the segment manager. Two or more components of an operating segment may be aggregated and deemed a single reporting unit if the components have similar economic characteristics. Based upon the aggregation criteria the Company concluded it had seven7 reporting units at both March 31, 2021June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2020.2021. The annual impairment test is conducted as of December 31. The Company

did not identify any triggering events during the quarterssix months ended March 31, 2021June 30, 2022 or March 31, 2020.June 30, 2021. See Note 7: Goodwill for additional information regarding goodwill.
M.Long-Lived Assets and Acquired Identifiable Intangible Assets
Identifiable intangible assets represent assets acquired as part of the Company's business acquisitions and include customer and program/contract-related assets. The values assigned to acquired identifiable intangible assets are determined as of the date of acquisition based on estimates and judgments regarding expectations for the estimated future after-tax cash flows from those assets over their lives, including the probability of expected future contract renewals and revenues, all of which are discounted to present value.
The Company assesses the recoverability of the carrying value of its long-lived assets and intangible assets with finite useful lives whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets or asset group may not be recoverable. If there are any indicators of impairment present, the Company then evaluates the recoverability of the potentially impaired long-lived assets and acquired identifiable intangible assets based upon expectations of undiscounted net cash flows from such assets. If the sum of the expected future undiscounted net cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset or asset group, a loss is recognized for the difference between the estimated fair value and the carrying amount of the assets. Assets to be disposed of, including those of discontinued operations, are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value, less the costs to sell. See Note 5: Property, Plant and Equipment and Note 8: Intangible Assets for additional information regarding long-lived assets and intangible assets.
N.Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. All derivative instruments are carried on the Consolidated Balance SheetSheets as either assets or liabilities at fair value. The classification of gains and losses resulting from changes in the fair values of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative and its resultant designation. The Company had no significant derivative or hedging instruments for the periods presented.
O.Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits
The obligations for the Company's pension plans and postretirement benefit plans and the related annual costs of employee benefits are calculated based on several long-term assumptions, including discount rates for employeeparticipant benefit liabilities, rates of return on plan assets, expected annual rates of salary increases for employee participants in the case of pension plans and expected annual increases in the costs of medical and other health care benefits in the case of postretirement benefit plans. These long-term assumptions are subject to revision based on changes in interest rates, financial market conditions, expected versus actual returns on plan assets, participant mortality rates and other actuarial assumptions, including future rates of salary increases, benefit formulas and levels, and rates of increase in the costs of benefits. Changes in these assumptions, if significant, can materially affect the amount of

annual net periodic benefit costs recognized in the Company's results of operations from one year to the next, the liabilities for the pension plans and postretirement benefit plans and the Company's annual cash requirements to fund these plans. See Note 11: Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits for further information regarding our pension and postretirement plans.
P.Income Taxes
We and US Holding have entered into a Tax Allocation Agreement (“Tax Allocation Agreement”), dated as of November 16, 2020, with members of an affiliated group, as defined in Section 1504(a) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Tax Code”), members of one or more consolidated, combined, unitary or similar state tax groups and additional parties who are part of an “expanded affiliated group” for certain tax purposes. The agreement provides for the method of computing and allocating the consolidated U.S. federal tax liability of the affiliated group among its members and of allocating any state group tax liabilities among the state members for the taxable year ending December 31, 2020 and each subsequent year in which the parties are members of a group (whether federal or state). The agreement also provides for reimbursement of US Holding and/or DRS for payment of such tax liabilities, for compensation of any member for use of its “net operating loss” or “tax credits” in arriving at such tax liabilities and the allocation and payment of any refund arising from a carryback of net operating losses
10


LEONARDO DRS, INC.    
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
or tax credits from subsequent taxable years. Under the agreement, the parties have agreed to calculate and allocate their respective tax liabilities and other tax attributes for taxable years beginning with the first consolidated taxable year that included DRS (i.e., the taxable year ended December 31, 2008) as if the agreement was then in effect.
We calculate the provision for incomes taxes during interim periods by applying an estimate of our annual effective tax rate for the full year to “ordinary” income or loss (pretax income or loss excluding unusual or infrequently occurring discrete items.)items).
The provision for income taxes is determined using the asset and liability approach of accounting for income taxes. Under this approach, deferred taxes represent the future tax consequences expected to occur when the reported amounts of assets and liabilities are recovered or paid. Income taxes as presented attribute deferred income taxes of US Holding to DRS in a manner that is systematic, rational and consistent with the asset and liability method and the governing Tax Allocation Agreement which allocates the tax liability amongst the entities, including DRS.
The provision for income taxes represents income taxes paid or payable for the current year plus the change in deferred taxes during the year. Deferred taxes result from differences between the financial and tax basis of DRS’ assets and liabilities and are adjusted for changes in tax rates and tax laws when such changes are enacted.
In general, the taxable income of DRS is included in the consolidated U.S. federal and state tax returns of US Holding. Where applicable, US Holding’s current portion of U.S. federal income taxes payable were offset against DRS’ net operating loss carryforwards in the period the related tax expense was recorded. Consequently, our net operating loss carryforwards are deemed to have been settled with US Holding in each year in an amount commensurate with the carrying value of the tax effected net operating loss utilized.
If management determines that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset is not “more likely than not” to be realized, a valuation allowance is recorded as a component of the income tax provision to reduce the deferred tax asset to the amounts expected to be realized. In determining whether the Company’s deferred tax assets are realizable, management considers all evidence, both positive and negative, including the history of financial reporting earnings, existing taxable temporary differences and their projected reversals, as well as projected future income and tax planning strategies. We believe it is more likely than not that we will generate sufficient taxable income in future periods to realize our deferred tax assets, subject to the valuation allowances recognized.
The Company assesses its tax positions for all periods open to examination by tax authorities based on the latest available information. Those positions are evaluated to determine whether they will more likely than not be sustained upon examination by the relevant taxing authorities. Liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits are measured based on the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. These unrecognized tax benefits are recorded as a component of income tax expense. Interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits are not material.

Q.Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. The computation of diluted EPS includes the dilutive effect of outstanding stock-based compensation awards, only in periods in which such effect would have been dilutive for the period. In February 2021, the Company completed a forward stock split of 1,450,000 - for- 1 share of common stock. The consolidated financialsfinancial statements have been adjusted to reflect the forward stock split for all periods presented. There were 100 shares and 145 million basic and diluted common shares outstanding before and after the forward stock split, respectively, for all periods presented.
R.Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is the price the Company would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction with a market participant on the measurement date. We are required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs in measuring fair value, and to utilize a three-level fair value
11


LEONARDO DRS, INC.    
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The three hierarchical levels used to measure fair value are as follows:
Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; and inputs other than quoted prices that are directly or indirectly observable.
Level 3 — Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable.
In certain instances, fair value is determined through information obtained from third parties using the latest available market data. In obtaining such data from third parties, we have evaluated the methodologies used to develop the estimate of fair value in order to assess whether such valuations are representative of fair value. The Company categorizes plan assets for disclosure purposes in accordance with this fair value hierarchy. Certain plan investments are measured at fair value using the net asset value (“NAV”) per share (or its equivalent) practical expedient and are therefore not categorized as Level 1, 2, or 3. NAV is defined as the total value of the fund divided by the number of the fund’s shares outstanding. See Note 12: Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits for further information regarding our pension and postretirement plans.
S.Financial Instruments
Our financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities. Financial instruments are reported in the Consolidated Balance SheetSheets at carrying value, which other than the 7.5% Term loan due November 30, 2022,2023, approximate fair value. See Note 11: Debt for further information regarding our debt.
T.Acquisitions, Investments and Variable Interest Entities
Acquisitions
Our consolidated financial statements include the operations of acquired businesses from the date of acquisition. We account for acquired businesses using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires that any assets acquired and liabilities assumed be measured at their respective fair values on the acquisition date. The accounting for business combinations requires the Company to make significant judgments and estimates. Any excess of the fair value of consideration transferred over the assigned values of the net assets acquired is recognized as goodwill.
There were no significant acquisitions that were completed for anyAs previously announced, on June 21, 2022, we entered into the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 21, 2022 (the “merger agreement”), by and among the Company, RADA Electronic Industries Ltd (“RADA”) and Blackstart Ltd, a company organized under the laws of the periods presented.State of Israel and a wholly owned subsidiary of DRS (“Merger Sub”). Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the merger agreement, and in accordance with the Companies Law, 5759-1999, of the State of Israel, at the effective time of the merger contemplated by the merger agreement (the “merger”), Merger Sub will be merged with and into RADA, with RADA as the surviving company of the merger and thereby becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of DRS. At the effective time of the merger (the “effective time”), each ordinary share of RADA, par value New Israeli Shekel 0.03 per share (“RADA shares”), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time will be converted into and become exchangeable for 1 share of common stock of DRS, par value $0.01 per share (“DRS common stock”). Immediately prior to the effective time, the shares of DRS common stock held by US Holding, the current sole stockholder of DRS, will be split (rounded up to the nearest whole share), as necessary, such that, immediately following the effective time and the issuance of the shares of DRS common stock to holders of RADA shares and the treatment of options to purchase RADA shares: (A) US Holding will hold 80.5% of the issued and outstanding shares of DRS common stock on a fully diluted basis (with US Holding’s ownership percentage including 50% of any awards or other equity interests that DRS may issue pursuant to entitlements under any grants of certain one-time special awards of restricted stock units (the “One-Time Awards”) and the foregoing percentage calculation excluding any awards or other equity interests that DRS may issue pursuant to entitlements under the DRS’s long term incentive plan and 50% of any awards or other equity interests that DRS may issue pursuant to entitlements in

connection with any grants of One-Time Awards, and such foregoing percentage will assume a reference price for RADA options equal to the volume-weighted average price of the RADA shares on the NASDAQ for the ten trading days immediately prior to the closing date); and (B) the holders of RADA shares, RADA vested options and RADA unvested options (or DRS options issued pursuant to the provisions of the merger agreement) will hold or have entitlements to 19.5% of the issued and outstanding shares of DRS common stock on a fully diluted basis (the foregoing percentage calculation excluding any awards or other equity interests that DRS may issue pursuant to entitlements under the DRS long-term incentive plan or the issuance of any One-Time Awards).
Each of DRS’s and RADA’s obligation to consummate the merger is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of a number of conditions specified in the merger agreement.
The merger is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2022. On August 3, 2022, we filed a registration statement on Form S-4 with the SEC for the shares of DRS common stock to be issued in the merger, which has not yet been declared effective by the SEC.
Investments
Investments where we have the ability to exercise significant influence, but do not control, are accounted for under the equity method of accounting and are included in other noncurrent assets on our Consolidated Balance Sheet.Sheets. Significant influence typically exists if we have a 20% to 50% ownership interest in the investee. Under this method of accounting, our share of the net earnings or losses of the investee is included in operating profit in other income, net on our Consolidated Statements of Earnings since the activities of the investee are closely aligned with the operations of the business segment holding the investment. We evaluate our equity method investments for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of such investments may be impaired. If a decline in the value of an equity method investment is determined to be other than temporary, a loss is therefore recorded during the current period.
The Company’s cost method investment consists of an investment in a private company in which we do not have the ability to exercise significant influence over its operating and financial activities. Management evaluates this investment for possible impairment quarterly.
Variable Interest Entities
The Company occasionally forms joint ventures and/or enters into arrangements with special purpose limited liability companies for the purpose of bidding and executing on specific projects. The Company analyzes each such arrangement to determine whether it represents a variable interest entity (“VIE”). If the arrangement is determined to be a VIE, the Company assesses whether it is the primary beneficiary of the VIE and if it is, consequently required to consolidate the VIE. The Company did not have any investment in VIEs for the periods presented.
Divestitures / Held for Sale

On March 21, 2022, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell its Global Enterprise Solutions (“GES”) business to SES Government Solutions, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of SES S.A., for $450 million in cash. The transaction was completed on August 1, 2022 and resulted in proceeds of $427 million. We are in the process of finalizing the accounting for the transaction and will report the gain on the transaction in the third quarter. GES, which was part of the ASC segment, provides commercial satellite communications to the U.S. Government and delivers satellite communications and security solutions to customers worldwide. SES S.A. has guaranteed the payment of the purchase price and performance of all other obligations of SES Government Solutions, Inc. under the agreement. As of June 30, 2022, the assets and liabilities related to GES were reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as Held for Sale.
In February 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the strategic initiative to divest of the Company’s interest in Advanced Acoustic Concepts (“AAC”). On April 19, 2022, we entered into a definitive sales agreement to divest our share of our equity investment in AAC for $56 million to Thales Defense & Security, Inc., the minority partner in the joint venture. The transaction was completed on July 8, 2022 and resulted in proceeds of

$56 million. We are in the process of finalizing the accounting for the transaction and will report the gain on the transaction in the third quarter. As of June 30, 2022, the Investment was reported as Held for Sale.
The proceeds generated from the GES and AAC divestitures resulted in a $396 million dividend to Leonardo US Holdings, our sole shareholder. The $396 million represents the proceeds generated net of our costs to sell and estimated tax obligations. The dividend was issued on August 5, 2022

Note 2. Revenue from Contracts with Customers
The Company recognizes revenue for each separately identifiable performance obligation in a contract representing an obligation to transfer a distinct good or service to a customer. In most cases, goods and services provided under the Company’s contracts are accounted for as single performance obligations due to the complex and integrated nature of our products and services. These contracts generally require significant integration of a group of goods and/or services to deliver a combined output. In some contracts, the Company provides multiple distinct goods or services to a customer. In those cases, the Company accounts for the distinct contract deliverables as separate performance obligations and allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price, which is generally estimated using cost plus a reasonable margin. We classify revenues as products or services on our Consolidated Statements of Earnings based on the predominant attributes of the performance obligations. While the Company provides warranties on certain contracts, we typically do not provide for services beyond standard assurances and therefore do not consider warranties to be separate performance obligations. Typically we enter into three types of contracts: fixed-price contracts, cost-plus contracts and T&M contracts (cost-plus contracts and T&M contracts are aggregated below as flexibly priced contracts). The majority of our total revenues are derived from fixed-price contracts; refer to the revenue disaggregation disclosures that follow.
For fixed-price contracts, customers agree to pay a fixed amount, negotiated in advanced for a specified scope of work.
For cost-plus contracts typically we are reimbursed for allowable or otherwise defined total costs (defined as cost of revenues plus allowable general and administrative expenses) incurred, plus a fee. The contracts may also include incentives for various performance criteria, including quality, timeliness and cost-effectiveness. In addition, costs are generally subject to review by clients and regulatory audit agencies, and such reviews could result in costs being disputed as non-reimbursable under the terms of the contract.
T&M contracts provide for reimbursement of labor hours expended at a contractual fixed labor rate per hour, plus the actual costs of material and other direct non-labor costs. The fixed labor rates on T&M contracts include amounts for the cost of direct labor, indirect contract costs and profit.

Estimating the transaction price for an arrangement requires judgment and is based on expected results which are determined using the Company’s historical data. We estimate that the revenue that we expect to be entitled to receive from a customer to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur.
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when the performance obligations are satisfied through the transfer of control over the good or service to the customer, which may occur either over time or at a point in time.
Revenues for the majority of our contracts are measured as determined by the ratio of cumulative costs incurred to date to estimated total contract costs at completion (the "cost-to-cost method"). We believe this is an appropriate measure of progress toward satisfaction of performance obligations as this measure most accurately depicts the progress of our work and transfer of control to our customers. Due to the long-term nature of many of our contracts, developing the estimated total cost at completion and total transaction price often requires judgment. Factors that must be considered in estimating the cost of the work to be completed include the nature and complexity of the work to be performed, subcontractor performance and the risk and impact of delayed performance.
14


LEONARDO DRS, INC.    
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
After establishing the estimated total cost at completion, we follow a standard Estimate at Completion (“EAC”) process in which we review the progress and performance on our ongoing contracts at least quarterly. Adjustments to original estimates for a contract's revenue, estimated costs at completion and estimated profit or loss often are required as work progresses under a contract, as experience is gained and as more information is obtained, even though the scope of work required under the contract may not change and are also required if contract modifications occur. When adjustments in estimated total costs at completion or in estimated total transaction price are determined, the related impact on revenue and operating income are recognized using the cumulative catch-up method, which recognizes in the current period the cumulative effect of such adjustments for all prior periods. Any anticipated losses on these contracts are fully recognized in the period in which the losses become evident.
EAC adjustments had the following impacts to revenue for the periods presented:

The impacts noted above are attributed primarily to changes in our firm-fixed-price development type programs. AsThey consist of changes happen in the designdesigns required to achieve contractual specifications those changes often resultfor fixed priced development programs and inflationary impacts on certain naval production programs that resulted in a change in the programs’ estimate and related profitability. The reductionsreduction to revenue for the period March 31,three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021 was attributed primarily to certain submarine electronic propulsioncost impacts on surface ship programs with inwithin our IMS segment. The impact to revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was driven by an international electronic warfare programsegment and inflationary pressures on naval programs within our ASTASC segment.
Conversely, if the requirements for the recognition of contracts over time are not met, revenue is recognized at a point in time when control transfers to the customer, which is generally upon transfer of title. In such cases, the production that is in progress and costs that will be recognized at a future point in time are reported within "inventories".
Costs to obtain a contract are incremental direct costs incurred to obtain a contract with a customer, including sales commissions and dealer fees, and are capitalized if material. Costs to fulfill a contract include costs directly related to a contract or specific anticipated contract (e.g., certain design costs) that generate or enhance our ability to satisfy our performance obligations under these contracts. These costs are capitalized to the extent they are expected to be recovered from the associated contract.

Sheet. Sheets. Amounts are billed as work progresses in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms, either at periodic intervals (e.g., biweekly or monthly) or upon achievement of contractual milestones. Generally, billing occurs subsequent to revenue recognition, resulting in contract assets. However, we sometimes receive advances or deposits from our customers before revenue is recognized, resulting in contract liabilities.

LEONARDO DRS, INC.    
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
The change in the balances of the Company’s contract assets and liabilities primarily results from timing differences between revenue recognition and customer billings and/or payments.
Contract assets related to amounts withheld by customers until contract completion are not considered a significant financing component of our contracts because the intent is to protect the customers from our failure to satisfactorily complete our performance obligations. Payments received from customers in advance of revenue recognition (contract liabilities) are not considered a significant financing component of our contracts because they are utilized to pay for contract costs within a one-year period or are requested by us to ensure the customers meet their payment obligations.
Value of Remaining Performance Obligations
The value of remaining performance obligations, which we also refer to as total backlog, includes the following components:
Funded - Funded backlog represents the revenue value of orders for services under existing contracts for which funding is appropriated or otherwise authorized less revenue previously recognized on these contracts.
Unfunded - Unfunded backlog represents the revenue value of firm orders for products and services under existing contracts for which funding has not yet been appropriated less funding previously recognized on these contracts.
The following table summarizes the value of our total backlog as of March 31, 2021,June 30, 2022, incorporating both funded and unfunded components:

Other intangible assets mainly refer to the fair value of existing customer contractual relationships attributable to the acquired business and patents which are being amortized over their respective lives. The fair value of intangible assets typically is determined, as of the date of acquisition, based on estimates and judgments regarding expectations for the estimated future after-tax earnings and cash flows (including cash flows for working capital) arising from backlog and follow-on sales to the customer over their estimated lives, including the probability of expected future contract renewals and sales, less a contributory assets charge, all of which is discounted to present value.
The following disclosure presents certain information regarding the Company's intangible assets as of March 31, 2021June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2020.2021. All intangible assets are being amortized over their estimated useful lives, as indicated below, with no estimated residual values.

(1)The Company’s debt with related parties consists of two2 term loans and a working capital credit facility with US Holding, as described below.
Term Loans
In January 2009, the Company entered into a credit agreement with its ultimate parent company, Finmeccanica S.p.A. (presently Leonardo S.p.A.) in the amount of $2 billion (the “2009 Credit Agreement”). The 2009 Credit Agreement was subsequently assigned to US Holding and has a maturity of November 30, 2022.2023. The 2009 Credit Agreement provides for a term loan bearing interest at a rate of 7.5%, with interest payments due semi-annually on June 20 and December 20 in each year (the “7.5% Term loan”). The outstanding balance of the 7.5% Term loan at March 31, 2021June 30, 2022 and December 31, 20202021 was $139 million. The fair value of this term loan at March 31, 2021June 30, 2022 and December 31, 20202021 was $181$142 million and $182 million, respectively; however, the Company has the ability to prepay the outstanding principal balance at the carrying amount without penalty. During 2020, US Holding forgave $300 million of related party debt. This was treated as a capital transaction and the amount was recorded in additional paid-in capital, as US Holding is the Company’s parent.

Term Loan”). The Daylight Term Loan had an outstanding balance of $98$78 million at March 31, 2021June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The fair value of the Daylight Term Loan as of June 30, 2020 which approximates its fair value.and December 31, 2021 was approximately $81 million and $84 million, respectively. The Daylight Term Loan matures on October 15, 2024. The Daylight Term Loan has an interest rate of 5.0%, with interest payments due semi-annually on April 15 and October 15.
Credit Facilities
The 2009 Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility available for working capital needs of the Company (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). As of March 31, 2021June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2020,2021, the Revolving Credit Facility had a credit limit of $450 million and an interest rate of LIBOR plus 3.5%. There is a commitment fee of 0.25% applied to the unused balance of the Revolving Credit Facility and there are no compensating balance requirements. The outstanding balance as of March 31, 2021June 30, 2022 was $125$110 million and there was no balance on the Revolving Credit Facility as of December 31, 2020.2021.
The Company also maintains uncommitted working capital credit facilities with certain financial institutions in the aggregate of $60$65 million at March 31, 2021June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2020,2021, respectively (the “Financial Institution Credit Facilities”). The Financial Institution Credit Facilities are guaranteed by Leonardo S.p.A. The primary purpose of the Financial Institution Credit Facilities is to support standby letter of credit issuances on contracts with customers and also includes a revolving facility with a maximum borrowing limit of $15 million, which bears interest at LIBOR plus 0.5%. At March 31, 2021June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2020,2021, there was no balance outstanding on the revolving facility. The Company had letters of credit outstanding of approximately $31 million and $35 million as of March 31, 2021June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2020,2021, respectively, which reduces the available capacity of the Financial Institution Credit Facilities by an equal amount.
Short-term Borrowings
As of March 31, 2021June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2020,2021, the Company recognized $19$1 million and $27$15 million, respectively, collected on behalf of the buyers of our trade receivables pursuant to our factoring arrangements as short-term borrowings and current portion of long-term debt in the Consolidated Balance Sheet,Sheets, which approximates its fair value. Refer to Note 3: Accounts Receivable for more information.
Note 11. Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits
Retirement Plan Summary Information
The Company maintains multiple pension plans, both contributory and non-contributory, covering employees at certain locations. Eligibility requirements for participation in the plans vary, and benefits generally are based on the participant's compensation and years of service, as defined in the respective plan. The Company's funding policy generally is to contribute in accordance with cost accounting standards that affect government contractors, subject to the Tax Code and regulations thereunder. Plan assets are invested primarily in equities, bonds (both corporate and U.S. government), U.S. government-sponsored entity instruments, cash and cash equivalents and real estate.
The Company also provides postretirement medical benefits for certain retired employees and dependents at certain locations. Participants are eligible for these benefits when they retire from active service and meet the eligibility requirements for the Company's postretirement benefit plans. The Company's contractual arrangements with the U.S. government provide for the recovery of contributions to a Voluntary Employees' Beneficiary Association (“VEBA”) trust and, for non-funded plans, recovery of claims on a pay-as-you-go basis, subject to the Tax Code and regulations thereunder, with the retiree generally paying a portion of the costs through contributions, deductibles and coinsurance provisions.
The Company also maintains certain non-contributory and unfunded supplemental retirement plans. Eligibility for participation in the supplemental retirement plans is limited, and benefits generally are based on the participant's compensation and/or years of service.

The expected long-term return on plan assets assumption represents the average rate that the Company expects to earn over the long-term on the assets of the Company's benefit plans, including those from dividends, interest income and capital appreciation. The assumption has been determined based on expectations regarding future rates of return for the plans' investment portfolio, with consideration given to the allocation of investments by asset class and historical rates of return for each individual asset class.
Pension related expenses are reflected in the Total costs of revenues and General and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statement of Earnings (unaudited).

Note 12. Share-based compensation plans
The Company does not have any share-based compensation plans. See Note 6: Other Liabilities, for information regarding cash compensation.
Note 13. Commitments and Contingencies
Commitments
The Company’s commitments are primarily related to our lease and credit agreements.
Contingencies
From time to time we are subject to certain legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business. These matters are subject to many uncertainties and it is possible that some of these matters ultimately could be decided, resolved or settled in a manner adverse to us. Although the precise amount of liability that may result from these matters is not ascertainable, the Company believes that any amounts exceeding the Company's recorded accruals should not materially adversely affect the Company's financial condition or liquidity. It is possible, however, that the ultimate resolution of those matters could result in a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations and/or cash flows from operating activities for a particular reporting period. We establish reserves for specific legal matters when we determine that the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is probable and the loss is reasonably estimable.
Some environmental laws, such as the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (also known as “CERCLA” or the “Superfund law”) and similar state statutes, can impose liability upon former owners or operators for the entire cost of investigating and remediating contaminated sites regardless of the lawfulness of the original activities that led to the contamination. In July 2000, an entity which later became a

subsidiary of the Company received a Section 104(e) Request for Information (“RFI”) from the National Park Service (“NPS”), pursuant to CERCLA, regarding the presence of radioactive material at a site within a national park, which site was operated by an alleged predecessor to our subsidiary over 50 years ago. Following the subsidiary’s response to the RFI, the NPS directed it and another alleged former operator to perform an Engineering Evaluation and Cost Analysis (“EE/CA”) of a portion of the site. The Company’s subsidiary made a good faith offer to conduct an alternative EE/CA work plan, but the NPS rejected this offer and opted to perform the EE/CA itself. The NPS previously posted its intention to open a formal public comment period regarding the EE/CA at the end of 2019. To the Company’s knowledge, the EE/CA has not been released and a public comment period has yet to be opened.
Following completion of the EE/CA, the NPS may seek reimbursement for its investigative and remedial efforts to date, or direct one or more of the potentially responsible parties to perform any remediation that may be required by CERCLA or may enter an alternative dispute resolution proceeding to attempt to resolve each party’s share. In addition, the NPS may seek to recover damages for loss of use of certain natural resources. The Company believes that it has legitimate defenses to its subsidiary’s potential liability and that there are other potentially responsible parties for the environmental conditions at the site, including the U.S. government as owner, operator and arranger at the site. The potential liability associated with this matter could change substantially due to such factors as additional information on the nature or extent of contamination, methods of remediation that might be recommended or required, changes in the apportionment of costs among the responsible parties, whether the NPS seeks to recover additional damages, whether the NPS’s plans to investigate additional areas to identify a need for further remedial action for which the Company may be identified as a potentially responsible party and other actions by governmental agencies or private parties.
The Company has recorded its best estimate of damages and its share of remediation costs related to the site to reflect what we and our advisors reasonably believe we would be liable for based on the current information and circumstances of the claim, exclusive of other potential liabilities that may be asserted in the future.

In the performance of our contracts we routinely request contract modifications that require additional funding from the customer. Most often, these requests are due to customer-directed changes in the scope of work. While we are entitled to recovery of these costs under our contracts, the administrative process with our customer may be protracted. Based on the circumstances, we periodically file requests for equitable adjustment (“REAs”) that are sometimes converted into claims. In some cases, these requests are disputed by our customer. We believe our outstanding modifications, REAs and other claims will be resolved without material impact to our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.
As a government contractor, with customers including the U.S. government as well as various state and local government entities, the Company may be subject to audits, investigations and claims with respect to its contract performance, pricing, costs, cost allocations and procurement practices. Additionally, amounts billed under such contracts, including direct and indirect costs, are subject to potential adjustments before final settlement.
Management believes that adequate provisions for such potential audits, investigations, claims and contract adjustments, if any, have been made in the financial statements.
Product Warranties
Product warranty costs generally are accrued in proportion to product revenue realized in conjunction with our over-time revenue recognition policy. Product warranty expense is recognized based on the term of the product warranty, generally one year to three years, and the related estimated costs, considering historical claims expense. Accrued warranty costs are reduced as these costs are incurred and as the warranty period expires, and otherwise

Note 15. Segment Information
Operating segments represent components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is regularly reviewed by the CODM in determining how to allocate resources and assess performance. Our Chief Executive Officer is our CODM and he uses a variety of measures to assess the performance of the Company as a whole, depending on the nature of the activity. TheBeginning in the first quarter of 2022, the Company’s operating and reportable segments consist of AST, NC&Cwere revised into 2 reportable segments, ASC and IMS.IMS, to align our market strategy and capital allocation decision making with our operating structure. Prior year information was revised to reflect the new segment structure. All other operations, which consists primarily of DRS Corporate Headquarters and certain non-operating subsidiaries of the Company, are grouped in Corporate & Eliminations.
We primarily use Adjusted EBITDA to manage the Company and allocate resources. Adjusted EBITDA of our business segments includes our net earnings before income taxes, amortization of acquired intangible assets, depreciation, restructuring costs, interest, transaction costs related to an anticipated offering of securities, acquisition and divestiture related expenses, foreign exchange, COVID-19 response costs, non-service pension expenditures and other one-time non-operational events. Adjusted EBITDA is used to facilitate a comparison of the ordinary, ongoing and customary course of our operations on a consistent basis from period to period and provide an additional understanding of factors and trends affecting our business segments. This measure assists the CODM in assessing segment operating performance consistently over time without the impact of our capital structure, asset base and items outside the control of the management team and expenses that do not relate to our core operations.

Focus on Customer and Execution
DRS and its employees focus on our end-customers – the men and women of the armed forces in the U.S. and its allies. We seek to provide high-quality equipment and services to support their mission success. We strive for excellence in everything we do, in every job in our Company, in order to satisfy our customers’ needs embedded in our contractual commitments. We seek to ensure that we learn from every lesson experienced in our Company and insist that these lessons affect all elements of our businesses. This approach permeates through the Company with a focus on continuous improvement at every level.
Part of this learning has resulted in institutionalizing our continuous improvement process through our Operational Excellence initiative called “Always Performing For Excellence,” or “APEX,” program. The APEX program’s goal is to strive for continuous improvement through unification of our business practices, tools and metrics, ongoing employee training and innovation. We believe that excellence is not a destination, but by constantly challenging ourselves to be better, we will improve, and ultimately approach excellence. We challenge ourselves to exceed our customers’ expectations and we partner with them to work to ensure that our execution meets their needs.
Continuous improvement, through the APEX program also allows us to improve our efficiency, which contributes to increased margins, helps us to remain competitive and allows us to make strategic investments, all while maintaining our focus on customer satisfaction. In these elements, our goals are aligned with those of our customers. We are humbled by the dedication and sacrifice that our ultimate customers have made to serve and we work to perform for them with excellence in everything we do.
Impacts of COVID-19 On Our Business
DRS remains committedThe coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic has caused significant disruptions to the safety, health,national and well-being of our employees while ensuring the continuity of our operations. We do this by adhering to our three primary goals: keeping our employeesglobal economies and their families safe; mitigating risk associated with interruption of suppliers’ materials; and maintaining our commitment to our customers.government activities since March 2020. We continue to protectclosely monitor COVID-related impacts on all aspects of our employees inbusiness and geographies, including on our workforce, supply chain and customers.
The United States has taken several steps to respond to the facilities by maintaining physical separationpandemic. On September 9, 2021, President Biden announced a COVID-19 action plan, including an executive order, the Safer Workforce Task Force guidance issued on September 24, 2021 and the DoD’s Force Health Protection guidance. This executive order and guidance (as amended) contained a clause that required covered federal contractors and subcontractors to implement federally required vaccine mandates. This clause was implemented into several of our applicable federal contracts. In light of
30


certain of certain court orders, however, the Office of Management and Budget has stated that the U.S Government will not take action to enforce this clause until further notice. If ultimately upheld, this federal contract requirement may impact several of our contracts. We are continuing to evaluate these evolving requirements, especially as our customers determine when and how to implement the potential contractual requirements. We cannot at this stage predict the various impacts they may have on our workforce, our suppliers, or our company. These evolving government requirements, along with broader impacts of the essential employees into smaller work zonescontinuing pandemic, could impact our workforce and quarantiningperformance, as well as those of a zone when there is a concern of potential exposure. Our health and safety protocols continue with intra-shift sanitization at each facility, providing PPE to employees, and ensuring employees stay home when not feeling well or when potentially exposed at work or home by providing a special company-paid health emergency leave. For non-essential workers we continue to fully support teleworking, and providing the same healthcare leave for their use when needed. With the release of the COVID-19 vaccine, we have created a vaccine incentive program for employees where they earn an incentive award when fully vaccinated and may elect to receive the award or donate the award to the American Red Cross.our suppliers
We continue to reviewfollow the practice started in the first quarter of 2022 that any remaining additional costs to operate our mitigation efforts to respondbusiness in response to the changing COVID-19 environment should be reported as part of our normal business operations and are engagednot separately identified as an adjustment to EBITDA. In addition to the challenges that COVID-19 is presenting to the industry and our Company, significant adverse supply chain disruptions continue throughout the industry and for the Company, including delays in planningthe receipt and adapting to a future workforce for when there is a return to normalcy. As reported for

2020, we incurred $12 milliondelivery of expenditures to include paid leave, personal protective equipment and other cleaning measures, facility filtration systems and social and physical distancing efforts, including the use of zones and subzones for manufacturing facilities. From January 1, 2021 through March 31, 2021, we have incurred an additional $3 million of expenditures related to ensuring a safe work environment for our employees.materials,

Revenues derived directly, as a prime contractor, or indirectly, as a subcontractor, from contracts with the U.S. government represented 78% and 82% of our consolidated revenue for the second quarter and first six months of 2022, respectively, and 85% and 86% of our consolidated revenue for the threesecond quarter and first six months ended March 31, 2021 and 83% for the three months ended March 31, 2020.of 2021. Of these sales directly to the U.S. government, the Army and Navy are our largest customers. For the three monththree- and six-month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020,June 30, 2022, U.S. government sales with the U.S. Army represented 33% and 33% and U.S. government sales with the U.S. Navy represented 44% 29% and 32%, 29%, and 42%, and 35%respectively, of our total revenuesconsolidated revenue. For the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2021, U.S. government sales with the U.S. Army represented 31% and 38% and U.S. government sales with the U.S. Navy represented 32% and 31%, respectively, which is consistent with prior full year results.of our consolidated revenue.
The Second Quarter was highlighted by congressional defense committee work on Fiscal Year 2023 (“FY 23”) authorization and appropriations legislation following the President’s FY23 budget release in the first quarter of the calendar year 2021 began withyear. The first committee to act was the DepartmentSenate Armed Services Committee making up their version in closed session of the FY23 National Defense operating with aAuthorization Act. Next, the House Defense Appropriations Committee completed work on their version of FY23 appropriations legislation. Finally, the House Armed Services Committee considered their authorization legislation passing it in full year authorizationcommittee. This bill likely be brought to the full House in the third quarter.
In February 2022, Russian forces invaded Ukraine. In response, the United States and appropriationseveral other countries imposed economic and trade sanctions, export controls and other restrictions targeting Russia and Belarus. The conflict and these sanctions have caused disruptions to global economies and some global businesses, including heightened cybersecurity risks, supply chain challenges, increased energy costs, foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, as well as an exacerbation of existing inflationary pressures. In addition, the Russia-Ukraine conflict has created some potential supply chain challenges for Fiscal Year 2021 (“FY21”). Duringour Company and our suppliers, which we will continue to monitor and manage.
The Russia-Ukraine conflict may also impact the quarter, both Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and Deputy Secretary of Defense Kathleen Hicks were confirmed byFY23 U.S. government defense budget due to the Senate. The Biden Administration’sheightened national security team continuesthreat. Internationally, many countries in the region have expressed a renewed commitment to take shapedefense-related spending. As a result, we may see additional demand for our products and assess programs and resources to ensure the Fiscal Year 2022, (“FY22”) budget aligns with the new Administration’s priorities. The President’s FY22 budget request was not released in February as is customary because of the change in Administration following the 2020 election. The Trump Administration in their FY21 submission had proposed an inflation adjusted increase for the DOD budget in FY22 yielding a $722B top-line; however, on April 9 the Biden Administration asked for a top-line budget of $715B, inclusive of Overseas Contingency Operations (“OCO”) funding. This budget request reflects a smaller decrease than was expected when adjusted for inflation.services.

Key Financial and Operating Measures
Overview
We measure our business using both key financial and operating data including key performance indicators (“KPIs”) and non-GAAP financial measures and use the following metrics to manage our business, monitor results of operations and ensure proper allocation of capital: (i) Revenue, (ii) Bookings, (iii) Backlog, (iv) Adjusted EBITDA, (v) Adjusted EBITDA Margin, (vi) Adjusted Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) and (vii) Free Cash Flow. We
31


believe that these financial performance metrics represent the primary drivers of value enhancement, balancing both short and long-term indicators of increased shareholder value. These are the metrics we use to measure our results and evaluate our business and related contract performance. See “—Results from Operations” for further detail.

We believe these non-GAAP financial measures, each of which is discussed in greater detail below, are important supplemental measures because they exclude unusual or non-recurring items as well as non-cash items that are unrelated to or may not be indicative of our ongoing operating results. Further, when read in conjunction with our U.S. GAAP results, these non-GAAP financial measures provide a baseline for analyzing trends in our underlying businesses and can be used by management as a tool to help make financial, operational and planning decisions. Finally, these measures are often
32


used by analysts and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry by providing more comparable measures that are less affected by factors such as capital structure.
We recognize that these non-GAAP financial measures have limitations, including that they may be calculated differently by other companies or may be used under different circumstances or for different purposes, thereby affecting their comparability from company to company. In order to compensate for these and the other limitations discussed below, management does not consider these measures in isolation from or as alternatives to the comparable financial measures determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Readers should review the reconciliations below and should not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.
We define these non-GAAP financial measures as:
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin - We define Adjusted EBITDA as our net earnings before income taxes, amortization of acquired intangible assets, depreciation, restructuring costs, interest, transaction costs related to an anticipated offering of securities, acquisition and divestiture related expenses, foreign exchange, COVID-19 response costs, non-service pension expenditures and other one-time non-operational events. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by revenue. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are not measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and they should not be considered an alternative to any financial measures that were calculated under U.S. GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are used to facilitate a comparison of the ordinary, ongoing and customary course of our operations on a consistent basis from period to period and provide an additional understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are driven by changes in volume, performance, contract mix and general and administrative expenses and investment levels. Performance, as used in this definition, refers to changes in profitability and is primarily based on adjustments to estimates at completion on individual contracts. These adjustments result from increases or decreases to the estimated value of the contract, the estimated costs to complete the contract, or both. These measures therefore assist management and our board and may be
29


useful to investors in comparing our operating performance consistently over time as they remove the impact of our capital structure, asset base and items outside the control of the management team and expenses that do not relate to our core operations. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies as other companies may have calculated the measures differently. The reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net earnings (loss) is provided below:

Adjusted EPS – We calculate Adjusted EPS by excluding transaction costs related to an anticipated offering of securities, acquisition and divestiture related expenses and COVID-19 response costs from our net earnings (loss) to arrive at Adjusted EPS. We believe that Adjusted EPS allows investors to effectively compare our core performance from period to period by excluding items that are not indicative of, or are unrelated to, results from our ongoing business operations such as our capital structure, significant non-cash expenses, the impacts of financing decisions on earnings, and items incurred outside the ordinary, ongoing and customary course of our business. Adjusted EPS has limitations as an analytical tool and does not represent, and should not be considered an alternative to basic or diluted EPS as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Free Cash Flow – We define free cash flow as the sum of the cash flows provided by operating activities and the cash flows provided by (used in) investment activities pertaining to capital expenditures and proceeds generated from the sale of capital assets.
We believe that free cash flow provides management and investors with an important measure of our ability to generate cash on a normalized basis. Free cash flow also provides insight into our flexibility to allocate capital and pursue opportunities that may enhance shareholder value. We believe that while expenditures and dispositions of property, plant and equipment will fluctuate period to period, we seek to ensure that we have adequate capital on hand to maintain ongoing operations and enable growth of the business. Additionally, free cash flow is of limited usefulness, in that it does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary expenditures, due to the fact the measures do not deduct the payments required for debt service and other contractual obligations or payments. The reconciliation between free cash flow and net cash provided by operating activities (the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure) is shown below:

Factors Impacting Our Performance
U.S. Government Spending and Federal Budget Uncertainty
Changes in the volume and relative mix of U.S. government spending as well as areas of spending growth could impact our business and results of operations. In particular, our results can be affected by shifts in strategies and priorities on homeland security, intelligence, defense-related programs, infrastructure and urbanization and continued increased spending on technology and innovation, including cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, connected communities and physical infrastructure. Cost-cutting and efficiency initiatives, current and future budget restrictions, spending cuts and other efforts to reduce government spending and shifts in overall priorities (for example, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic) could cause our government customers to reduce or delay funding or invest appropriated funds on a less consistent basis or not at all, and demand for our solutions or services could diminish. Furthermore, any disruption in the functioning of government agencies, including as a result of government closures and shutdowns, could have a negative impact on our operations and cause us to lose revenue or incur additional costs due to, among other things, our inability to maintain access and schedules for government testing or deploy our staff to customer locations or facilities as a result of such disruptions.
There is also uncertainty around the timing, extent, nature and effect of Congressional and other U.S. government actions to address budgetary constraints, caps on the discretionary budget for defense and non-defense departments and agencies, and the ability of Congress to determine how to allocate the available budget authority and pass appropriations bills to fund both U.S. government departments and agencies that are, and those that are not,
31


subject to the caps. Additionally, budget deficits and the growing U.S. national debt, including as a result of legislative actions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, may increase pressure on the U.S. government to reduce federal spending across all federal agencies, with uncertainty about the size and timing of those reductions. Furthermore, delays in the completion of future U.S. government budgets could in the future delay procurement of the federal government services we provide. A reduction in the amount of, or reductions, delays, or cancellations of funding for, services that we are contracted to provide to the U.S. government as a result of any of these impacts or
35


related initiatives, legislation or otherwise could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
Operational Performance on Contracts
Revenue, earnings (margin) and the timing of our cash flows depend on our ability to perform on our contracts. When agreeing to contractual terms, our management team makes assumptions and projections about future conditions and events. The accounting for our contracts and programs requires assumptions and estimates about these conditions and events. These projections and estimates assess:
the productivity and availability of labor;
the allocation of indirect costs to labor and material costs incurredincurred;
the complexity of the work to be performed;
the cost and availability of materials and components; and
schedule requirements.
If there is a significant change in one or more of these circumstances, estimates or assumptions, or if the risks under our contracts are not managed adequately, the profitability of contracts could be adversely affected. This could affect earnings and margin materially.
In particular, profitability can fluctuate predicated on the type of contract awarded. Typically fixed-price development programs on complex systems represent a higher risk profile to complete on-budget. To the extent our fixed-price development efforts create a larger portion of our revenue output, this may result in reduced operating margins given the higher risk profile. The following represents the impact that changing certain of our estimates, particularly those regardingwhich are primarily attributed to changes in our fixed-pricefirm-fixed-price type programs. They consist of changes in the designs required to achieve contractual specifications for fixed priced development programs would have had haveand inflationary impacts on certain naval production programs that resulted in a change in the programs’ estimate and related profitability. The reduction to revenue for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021 was attributed primarily to certain cost impacts on surface ship programs within our revenues:IMS segment and inflationary pressures on naval programs within our ASC segment.

Additionally, the timing of our cash flows is impacted by the timing of achievement of billable milestones on contracts. Historically, this has resulted and could continue to result in fluctuations in working capital levels and quarterly free cash flow results. As a result of such quarterly fluctuations in free cash flow results, we believe that quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our results of operations may not necessarily be meaningful and should not be relied upon as indicators of future performance.
Regulations
Increased audit, review, investigation and general scrutiny by U.S. government agencies of performance under government contracts and compliance with the terms of those contracts and applicable laws could affect our operating results. Negative publicity and increased scrutiny of government contractors in general, including us, relating to government expenditures for contractor services and incidents involving the mishandling of sensitive or classified information as well as the increasingly complex requirements of the DoD and the United States
3236



intelligence community, including those related to cybersecurity, could impact our ability to perform in the markets we serve.
International & Commercial Sales
International revenue, including foreign military sales, foreign military financing, and direct commercial sales, accounted for approximately 22% and 18% of our revenue for the three- and six-months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, and 15% and 14% of our revenue for the three monthsthree- and six-months ended March, 31, 2021 whichJune 30, 2021. The increase is consistentdue in part to increased purchases resulting from new and expanded military aid programs in support of Ukraine in its conflict with prior year trends.Russia. Since our focus is primarily with the DoD and our investments are focused as such, we anticipate that international sales will continue to account for a similar percentage of revenue in the future. We remain subject to the spending levels, pace and priorities of the U.S. government as well as international governments and commercial customers, and to general economic conditions that could adversely affect us, our customers and our suppliers.
Additionally, some international sales may expose us to foreign exchange fluctuations and changing dynamics of foreign competitiveness based on variations in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to other currencies. The impact of those fluctuations is reflected throughout our Consolidated Financial Statements, but in the aggregate, did not have a material impact on our results of operations for three monthsthree- and six-month periods ended March 31, 2021.June 30, 2022.
Acquisitions, Divestitures and Held for Sale
We consider the acquisition of businesses and investments that we believe will expand or complement our current portfolio and allow access to new customers or technologies. We also may explore the divestiture of businesses that no longer meet our needs or strategy or that could perform better outside of our organization. On March 22, 2022 we announced the signing of a definitive sale agreement for 100% of the stock of our Global Enterprise Solutions (“GES”) operating unit, which was completed on August 1, 2022 and on April 19, 2022 we signed a definitive sale agreement for our 51% ownership stake in our Advanced Acoustics Concepts Joint Venture with Thales (“AAC”), which was completed on July 8, 2022. The assets and liabilities of GES and our investment in AAC were both been classified as held for sale on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2022.
Components of Operations
Revenue
Revenue consists primarily of product related revenue, generating 84%,88% of our total revenues for the period the threesecond quarter and first six months ended March 31, 2021.of 2022. Our remaining revenue is generated from service related contracts. Additionally, 88%87% of our revenue is derived from firm-fixed priced contracts for the three monthsthree- and six-month periods ended March 31, 2021.June 30, 2022. This is consistent for both contract types when compared to product sales and firm-fixed priced sales of 86% and firm-fixed sales of 88%87%, respectively, for the three monthsthree- and six- month periods ended March 31, 2020.June 30, 2021.
Under flexibly priced contracts, we are reimbursed for allowable or otherwise defined total costs (defined as cost of revenues plus allowable general and administrative expenses) incurred, plus a fee. The contracts may also include incentives for various performance criteria, including quality, timeliness, cost-effectiveness or other factors. For the threesecond quarter and first six months ended March 31, 2021lof 2022 flexible priced contracts represented 12%13% respectively, of our total revenues. This is consistent for flexible priced contracts sales of 14% and 13%, respectively, for the three- and six- month periods ended June 30, 2021.
Please refer to Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Note 2. Revenue from Contracts with Customers in the Notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements.
Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues includes materials, labor and overhead costs incurred in the manufacturing, design, and provision of products and services sold in the period as well as warranty costs. Material costs include raw materials,
37


purchased components and sub-assemblies and outside processing and inbound freight. Labor and overhead costs consist of direct and indirect manufacturing costs, including wages and fringe benefits, operating supplies, depreciation and amortization, occupancy costs, and purchasing, receiving, inspection costs and inbound freight costs.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses include general and administrative expenses not included within cost of revenues such as salaries, wages and fringe benefits, facility costs and other costs related to these indirect functions.
33


Additionally, general and administrative expenses include internal research and development costs as well as expenditures related to bid and proposal efforts. We expect general and administrative expenses will be impacted by the costs associated with being a publicly-traded company.
Results from Operations
The following discussion of operating results is intended to help the reader understand the results of operations and financial condition of the Company, as well as individual segments, for the threesecond quarter and first six months ended March 31, 2021,of 2022, as compared to threethe second quarter and first six months ended March 31, 2020.of 2021. Given the nature of our business, we believe revenue and earnings from operations are most relevant to an understanding of our performance at a business and segment level. Our operating cycle is lengthy and involves various types of production contracts and varying delivery schedules. Accordingly, operating results in a particular year may not be indicative of future operating results.

Our ASC segment decreased revenues by $131 million or 17% or over three months ended March 31, 2020. The revenue expansion is attributed to continued growth in all three segments of the business. Our AST segment increased revenues by $36 million or 19%13% driven by increased salesavailability of our ground vehicle sensing programs as well as the successful progresselectronic components and customer installation staffing levels impacting certain order quantities on our next generation weapon sight program.

The increasedecrease was driven by a combination of increased revenue and improved program performance offset in part by increased general and administrative expenditures. All three segments achieved improvement over the prior year periodexpenditures resulting from transaction related expenditures, as we begin to transition specific development programs to higher margin production programs.previously mentioned above.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreasedincreased in the three months ended June 30, 2022 by $6$1 million or 40%9% when compared to $9 million for endingthe three months March 31,ended June 30, 2021, There was no change in interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from $15 million for ending three months March 31, 2020. This reduction was primarily due to forgivenessthe prior year of $300$18 million of principal on our ‘7.5% Term Loan’ debt that occurred in December of 2020.interest expenditures realized for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
Other, Net

This was primarily due a reduction of $5 million in foreign exchange related charges realized during the period. In the three months ended March 31, 2020 our IMS segment realized a foreign exchange loss of $5 million related to revaluation of certain Canadian dollar denominated receivables.
Earnings Before Taxes
Earnings before taxes increaseddecreased by $28$11 million and $4 million to $41$32 million and $80 million for threethe three- and six- month periods ended June 30, 2022, respectively, from $43 million and $84 million for the three- and six- month periods ended June 30, 2021. The reduced profitability resulted in a 5% decrease in earnings before taxes for the six months ended March 31,June 30, 2021 from $13 million for three months ended March 31, 2020. Thisas compared to the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to an increase in operating earnings of $16 million, a reduction in interest expense of $6 milliongeneral and reduction of other costs of $6 million.administrative expenses as discussed above.
Income Tax Provision
Income tax provision increaseddecreased by $9$4 million and $4 million to $12$7 million and $19 million for three monthsthe three- and six- month periods ended March 31, 2021June 30, 2022, respectively, from $3$11 million and $23 million for three monthsthe three- and six- month periods ended March 31, 2020.June 30, 2021. This was primarily attributable to an increasea decrease in earnings before taxes of $28$11 million as well as an increase in our estimated annual effectiveand $4 million for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, and unfavorable discrete tax rateexpense recorded during the six months ended March 31, 2021. The discrete items were due to certain state law tax changes and an increase in estimated nondeductible expenses as compared to the prior year.expenses.
Net Earnings
Net earnings (loss) increaseddecreased by $19$7 million to $29$25 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021June 30, 2022 and stayed constant at $61 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, when compared to the three-and six- months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease for the three months ended March 31, 2020. ThisJune 30, 2022 was driven by increaseddecreased earnings before taxes of $28$4 million offset by increased indecreased income tax provision of $9$4 million, as described above.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA increaseddecreased by $21$2 million or 42%2% to $71 million from $50$67 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 asJune 30, 2022 and stayed constant at $140 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 when compared to three months March 31, 2020. This was primarily due to$69 million and $140 million for the increase inthree- and six- month periods ended June 30, 2021, respectively. The slight decrease is driven by lower gross profit attributed toas noted above driven by lower revenue growth as described above and increased program performance across all three segments.volumes, offset by improved profitability.
Adjusted EBITDA Margin
Adjusted EBITDA Margin increased from 8.6%10.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2020June 30, 2021 to 10.4%10.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2021.June 30, 2022 and from 10.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 to 11.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2022. This was primarily due to improved program performance anddriven by the transition of certain development programs into production driving margin expansion.expansion most notably on our submarine electric propulsion programs within our IMS sector.

stock outstanding resulting in Adjusted EPS of $0.25. This increase of $0.18 from $0.07$0.49, relatively consistent with the $0.48 realized for the threesix months ended March 31, 2020June 30, 2021. The consistent Adjusted EPS is driven by consistent net income generated during the respective periods when adjusted for COVID costs and deal related expenditures realized during the respective periods.
Backlog
Backlog decreased by $336 million to $3,051 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from $3,387 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, despite bookings exceeding our revenue totals by 15% during the period. This is attributed to a strong revenue contribution realized in the net earnings growth described above.
Backlog
Backlogsecond half of 2021 while bookings were negatively impacted by delayed awards and a reduction in new starts stemming from the continuing resolution, driving 2nd half revenues in 2021 that were 25% in excess of our bookings total for the same period. Despite the decline from prior period ended June 30, 2021, our backlog has increased by $346 million to $3,326 million from $2,945 million for three months ended March7% since December 31, 2021 from three months ended March 31, 2020 The most significant award contributingdriven by our strong book to our growth in backlog was a multi-carrier power conversion contract partially offset by the continued production of the previously awarded advanced protection systems at our IMS segment. Additionally, contributing to the growth in backlog, our AST segment was awarded a contract to transition our development program to production for the next-generation weapon sights, with our NC&C segment receiving a contract award, continuing production in our ruggedized computing business.bill ratio noted above.

June 30, 2021. The ASC contribution to revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022 decreased by 13.5% or $131 million to $840 million from $971 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.This increasedecrease is primarily attributed to increased deliveriessupply chain delays impacting revenue generation on various programs within the U.S. Army. Additionally on our next generation weapon sight production program coupled with continued expansionruggedized computing programs we realized a reduction of our second generation ground vehicle sensing programs and revenuesawards driven by lower than anticipated customer installation rates. Additionally, the ASC segment realized delays in the receipt of awards on our Navy shipboard launch systemcertain components production contracts awarded in 2020.to support computing hardware for naval systems.

AST’sASC’s Adjusted EBITDA increaseddecreased by $11$4 million or 65%7%, from $17$61 million for three months ended March 31, 2020June 30, 2021 to $28$57 million for three months ended March 31, 2021. The increaseJune 30, 2022. Despite the reduction in Adjusted EBITDA drove an increase in Adjusted EBITDA Margin increasing from 9% forrealized during the three months ended March 31, 2020June 30, 2022, our Adjusted EBITDA Margin increased 30bps to 13% for12.8% from 12.5% realized during the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2021. The increase in
ASC’s Adjusted EBITDA anddecrease can also be seen in the six months ended June 30, 2022 with Adjusted EBITDA Margindecreasing by $26 million or 23% from $115 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 to $89 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The Adjusted EBITDA reduction is primarily dueattributed to increasedthe decreased revenue output as noted above. Similarly, the lower revenue volume creating increased operational leverage coupled with improved performance on certain electronic warfare programs.allowed for less absorption of general and administrative and other fixed costs reducing our Adjusted EBITDA Margins 120 bps from 11.8% to 10.6% for the six months end June 30, 2021 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Bookings:
The ASTASC segment contributed $164$485 million and $873 million in new bookings for three monthsthree- and six - month periods ended March 31, 2021.June 30, 2022, respectively. Bookings were down slightlyfor both the three- and six- month periods ended June 30, 2022, by 3%1% or $5$4 million and 10% or $100 million as compared to the three monthsthree- and six- month periods ended March 31, 2020. This was primarily

due to full year production award received on certain aircraft force protection programs received during the three months ended March 31, 2020.
NC&C
Revenue:
NC&C revenue increased by $47 million or 22% to $264 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 from $217 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. This increase was primarily due to increased deliveries on our recently awarded common display systems and ruggedized computing products for $25 million and $21 million, respectively.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin:
NC&C’s Adjusted EBITDA increased by $7 million, or 37%, from $19 million for three months ended March 31, 2020 to $26 million for three months ended March 31,June 30, 2021. Adjusted EBITDA Margin increased from 9% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 to 10% for three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase in Adjusted EBITDAreduction is primarily due to reduced order quantities on our ruggedized computing programs due to a delay in installation capabilities attributed to COVID-19 employment disruption within the increased revenue output generating improved operational leverage. . Additionally we realized improved program performance on Navy computing and displays programs driving further margin expansion.
Bookings:
The NC&C segment contributed $330 million of bookingsU.S. Army, reduction in satellite bandwidth contract awards in our held for sale GES business, as well as significant ‘lump’ awards received during the six months ended June 30, 2021, including pilot training systems awarded for the three months ended March 31, 2021.JSF lot 15. These reductions were partially offset by additional international orders under new and expanded military aid programs in support of Ukraine and other Eastern European countries, including awards for thermal weapon sights and ground vehicle sensing for the Poland M1 Abrams tank award. Despite the solid quarterly results,reduction in year over year bookings were down by 4% or $14 million as comparedthrough June, we anticipate full year new awards for the ASC segment to exceed the three months ended March 31, 2020. This was primarily due to ruggedized computing and diagnostic products were lower than the three months ended March 31, 2020 by $25 million. This was offset in part by increased bookings for certain naval electronics programs of $17 million.prior year results.

Additionally, IMS continues to realize increased funding on the Next Generation Ballistic Submarine program as we transition from development into production.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We endeavor to ensure the most efficient conversion of operating income into cash for deployment in our business and to maximize shareholder value through cash deployment activities. In addition to our cash position, we use various financial measures to assist in capital deployment decision-making, including cash provided by operating activities and free cash flow, a non-GAAP measure described in more detail below. We believe that the combination of our existing cash, access to credit facilities as described in Note10:Note 10: Debt and future cash that we expect to generate from our operations will be sufficient to meet our short and long-term liquidity needs. There can
39


be no assurance, however, that our business will continue to generate cash flow at current levels or that anticipated operational improvements will be achieved. We may also pursue acquisitions or other strategic priorities that will require additional liquidity beyond the liquidity we generate through our operations. Our cash balance as of March 31, 2021,June 30, 2022, was $30$69 million compared to $61$240 million as of December 31, 2020.2021.

We are exposed to interest rate risk on variable-rate borrowings under our revolving credit facilities, which had an outstanding balance of $125$110 million as of March 31, 2021.June 30, 2022. Our remaining debt facilities are fixed rate obligations and not subject to fluctuations in interest rates. For additional information please refer to Note 10. Debt .
Foreign Currency Risk
In certain circumstances, we may be exposed to foreign currency risk. However, as the overwhelming majority of our revenue is derived from U.S. sources directly as a prime contractor or indirectly as a subcontractor for the U.S. government as end-customer, we have limited foreign currency exposure. Currently our exposure is primarily with the Canadian dollar and limited to receivables owed of $33$55 million as of March 31, 2021.June 30, 2022. A 10% fluctuation in exchange rates would not have a material impact on our financial statements. We do not enter into or issue derivative instruments for trading purposes.
Inflation Risk
WeGiven the broader inflation in the economy, we are monitoring the risk inflation presents to active and future contracts. To the extent feasible, we have generally been ableconsistently followed the practice of adjusting our estimated cost at completion to anticipatereflect the impact of inflation on salaries and fringe benefits for employees and the cost of purchased materials and services. These adjustments are reflected in our June financial results and we have not seen broad based increases in costs when pricingfrom inflation that are material to the business as a whole; however, if we begin to experience greater than expected supply chain and labor inflation, our contracts.profits and margins under our contracts, in particular fixed price contracts, could be adversely affected. Bids for longer-term firm fixed-price contracts

typically include assumptions for labor and other cost escalations in amounts that historically have been sufficient to cover cost increases over the period of performance.

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors
AsYou should carefully review and consider the information regarding certain factors that could materially affect our business, results of the dateoperations, and financial condition as set forth under “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report. Except as set forth in this Quarterly Report,Item 1A. “Risk Factors,” we do not believe that there have been noany material changes to the risk factors discussed under “Risk Factors”previously disclosed in our Annual Report. We may disclose changes to such risk factors or disclose additional risk factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently believe not to be material also may adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.
In addition to the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report, the following are risks related to our pending merger with RADA, as described further in Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies—T. Acquisitions, Investments and Variable Interest Entities within the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements:
Because the exchange ratio is fixed and will not be adjusted in the event of any change in RADA’s share price, the value of the shares of DRS immediately following completion of the merger (the “combined company”) and the other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement is uncertain.
The market price for shares of common stock of the combined company following the completion of the merger may be affected by factors different from, or in addition to, those that historically have affected or currently affect the market prices of RADA shares.
The lack of a public market for DRS common stock makes it more difficult to evaluate the fairness of the merger.
The shares of DRS common stock to be received by RADA shareholders as a result of the merger will have rights different from the RADA shares.
RADA shareholders will each have reduced ownership and voting interest in and will exercise less influence over management of DRS.
Until the completion of the merger or the termination of the merger agreement in accordance with its terms, DRS and RADA are each prohibited from entering into certain transactions and taking certain actions that might otherwise be beneficial to DRS or RADA and their respective stockholders and shareholders.
Difficulties in obtaining required approvals and satisfying closing conditions may prevent or delay completion of the merger.
DRS and RADA must obtain certain regulatory approvals and clearances to consummate the merger, which, if delayed, not granted or granted with conditions not presently anticipated, could prevent, substantially delay or impair consummation of the merger, result in additional expenditures of money and resources or reduce the anticipated benefits of the merger.
Failure to attract, motivate and retain executives and other key employees could diminish the anticipated benefits of the merger.
The merger, including uncertainty regarding the merger, may cause customers, suppliers or strategic partners to delay or defer decisions concerning DRS and RADA or seek to change or cancel existing business relationships
Whether or not the merger is completed, the announcement and pendency of the merger could cause disruptions in the businesses of DRS and RADA, which could have an adverse effect on their respective businesses and financial results.
The merger may not be completed on the terms or timeline currently contemplated, or at all, and the failure to complete the merger could adversely impact the market price of RADA shares, as well as its business and operating results.
51


The merger agreement may be terminated in accordance with its terms and the merger may not be consummated.
Any termination of the merger agreement could negatively impact DRS and RADA.
The directors and executive officers of DRS and RADA have interests that may be different from, or in addition to, those of DRS stockholders and RADA shareholders generally.
DRS or RADA may waive one or more of the closing conditions without re-soliciting shareholder approval or amending this proxy statement/prospectus.
The merger agreement contains provisions that could discourage a potential competing acquirer that might be willing to provide additional value to acquire or merge with either DRS or RADA.
Each of DRS and RADA will incur significant transaction, merger-related and restructuring costs in connection with the merger.
RADA shareholders will not be entitled to dissenters’, appraisal, cash exit or similar rights in the merger.
If it is determined the merger does not qualify as a tax-free “reorganization” for U.S. federal income tax purposes, U.S. holders of RADA shares will generally recognize capital gain or loss as a result of the merger.
Even if the merger qualifies as a “reorganization” under Section 368(a) of the Tax Code, a U.S. holder may still recognize gain as a result of the merger if RADA is or was classified as a “passive foreign investment company” for any taxable year during which a U.S. holder held RADA shares.
DRS could be liable for certain tax liabilities, including tax liabilities of US Holding and its subsidiaries, under tax law and the tax allocation agreement.
Lawsuits filed against DRS or RADA, or against DRS or RADA directors, challenging the merger, and an adverse ruling in any such lawsuit may prevent the merger from becoming effective or becoming effective within the expected time frame.
The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic could adversely affect the business, results of operations and financial condition of DRS, RADA and the combined company following the completion of the merger.
Climate change, or legal, regulatory or market measures to address climate change, may materially adversely affect the combined company’s financial condition and business operations.
The failure to successfully combine the businesses of DRS and RADA may adversely affect the combined company’s future results.
The combined company may not be able to retain customers or suppliers or customers or suppliers may seek to modify contractual obligations with the combined company, which could have an adverse effect on the combined company’s business and operations.
The combined company may be exposed to increased litigation, which could have an adverse effect on the combined company’s business and operations.
Combining the businesses of DRS and RADA may be more difficult, costly or time-consuming than expected and the combined company may fail to realize the anticipated benefits of the merger, which may adversely affect the combined company’s business results and negatively affect the value of the common stock of the combined company following the merger.
The failure to integrate successfully the businesses and operations of DRS and RADA in the expected time frame may adversely affect the combined company’s future results.
52


The combined company’s industry is highly competitive, which may impact its results of operations.
The combined company will operate in a global, competitive environment which gives rise to operating and market risk exposure.
The DRS and RADA unaudited prospective financial information is inherently subject to uncertainties, the unaudited pro forma financial data included in this document is preliminary and the combined company’s actual financial position and results of operations after the merger may differ materially from these estimates and the unaudited pro forma financial data included in this proxy statement/prospectus.
DRS and RADA will incur significant transaction and merger-related costs in connection with the merger.
The revenue of the combined company will depend on DRS’s and RADA’s ability to maintain certain levels of government business. The loss of contracts with U.S. and non-U.S. government agencies could adversely affect the combined company’s revenue.
Third parties may terminate or alter existing contracts or relationships with DRS or RADA.
The combined company may be unable to retain DRS and RADA personnel successfully after the merger is completed.
The combined company’s debt may adversely affect its financial condition, limit its financial flexibility, or decrease its business flexibility.
Declaration, payment and amounts of dividends, if any, distributed to stockholders of the combined company will be uncertain.
These risks are discussed more fully in the registration statement on Form S-1, as amended (Registration No. 333-253583), which was declared effective byS-4 we filed with the SEC on March 23, 2021.


August 3, 2022. Although the registration statement has not yet been declared effective, we urge you to read it and any amendments and supplements thereto, because they contain important information about the merger, including relevant risk factors.
