EXPLANATORY NOTE

On November 27, 2015, CSRA Inc. (“CSRA”) became an independent, publicly traded company through consummation of a spin-off by Computer Sciences Corporation (“CSC”) of the businesses constituting CSC’s North American Public Sector segment, which we refer to as the “Computer Sciences GS Business”, together with certain other assets and liabilities. We refer to this series of internal transactions as the “Internal Reorganization.” We refer to CSC’s distribution of the shares of CSRA common stock to CSC’s stockholders as the “Distribution” and to the Internal Reorganization and the Distribution collectively as the “Spin-Off.” On November 30, 2015, following two mergers (the “Mergers”) involving SRA Companies, Inc. (“SRA Parent”) and two wholly owned subsidiaries of CSRA, SRA International, Inc. (“SRA”) became an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of CSRA. For a more detailed description of the Spin-Off and Mergers, see CSRA’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 1, 2016.

Because the Spin-Off and the Mergers were not consummated until November 27, 2015 and November 30, 2015, respectively, the unaudited Consolidated and Condensed Financial Statements presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Form 10-Q”) include only the legacy Computer Sciences GS Business activity for the period from April 4, 2015 to October 2, 2015 and CSRA including SRA from April 2, 2016 to September 30, 2016.

In this Form 10-Q, unless the context otherwise requires, “CSRA,” “Computer Sciences GS,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to CSRA Inc. and its combined subsidiaries after giving effect to the Spin-Off for periods prior to the consummation of the Mergers; “CSRA,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to CSRA Inc. and its combined subsidiaries, including the combined business of SRA, after giving effect to the Spin-Off and the Mergers for periods following the consummation of the Mergers.

Note 1—Description of the Business, Basis of Presentation and Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Description of the Business

CSRA Inc. (“CSRA” or the “Company”) is, a provider of IT and professional services, to U.S. government organizations. CSRA delivers IT, mission, and operations-related services across the U.S. federal government, including to the Department of Defense (“DoD”), Department of Homeland Security (“DHS”), the intelligence community, and homeland security, civil and healthcare agencies, as well asand to certain state and local government agencies through two business segments: (1) Defense and Intelligence, and (2) Civil.

NES Acquisition
In May 2017, CSRA executed an agreement for the acquisition of NES Associates, LLC (“NES”), a provider of IT services to the U.S. government, for approximately $105 million in cash, subject to closing adjustments. The Spin-Offtransaction closed in July 2017; and the Mergers

On November 27, 2015, Computer Sciences Corporation (“CSC” or “Parent”) completed the spin-off of CSRA, including the Computer Sciences GS Business to CSC shareholders of record (the “Spin-Off”). Following the Spin-Off, on November 30, 2015, CSRA also completed two mergers, which resulted in SRA Companies, Inc. (“SRA Parent”) merging with and intoNES became a wholly ownedwholly-owned subsidiary of CSRA (the “Mergers”). As a result, SRA International Inc. (“SRA”) became an indirect wholly owned subsidiaryon the date of CSRA.closing.

The NES acquisition will be reflected in CSRA’s financial statements beginning in the second quarter of fiscal year 2018 using the acquisition method of accounting, with CSRA being considered the accounting acquirer of NES. Due to the recency of the acquisition, the initial purchase accounting for this acquisition was not completed at the time of issuance of these financial statements.
CSRA will record the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair value, with the difference between the fair value of the net assets acquired and the purchase consideration reflected as goodwill. See Note 4—Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets for further discussion of the measurement considerations for intangible assets.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited Consolidated and Condensed Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and should be read in conjunction with the information contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 1, 2016.March 31, 2017. The interim period unaudited Consolidated and Condensed Financial Statements are presented as described below.
Prior to the Spin-Off, the Company consisted of the business of CSC’s North American Public Sector segment and did not operate as a separate, stand-alone entity. Consequently, the period prior to the Spin-Off, as of and for the three and six months ended October 2, 2015, consists solely of the accounts and results of the Computer Sciences GS Business. The period subsequent to the Spin-Off and the Mergers, as of and for the three and six months ended September 30, 2016, consists of the consolidated accounts of CSRA and its wholly owned subsidiaries, which include the activity and operating results of SRA. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Certain information and disclosures normally required for annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for fair presentation of the results of the interim period presented have been included.

The accompanying unaudited financial statements for the period prior to the Spin-Off are prepared on a carved-out and combined basis from the financial statements of CSC. Such carved-out and combined amounts were determined using the historical results of operations and carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities transferred to CSRA. Related-party transactions between CSRA and CSC or the Computer Sciences GS Business and other businesses of CSC are reflected as related-party transactions. For additional information, see Note 2—Related-Party Transactions and Corporate Allocations.
For the period prior to the Spin-Off, the unaudited financial statements include all revenues and costs directly attributable to the Computer Sciences GS Business and an allocation of expenses related to certain CSC corporate functions, including, but not limited to, senior management, legal, human resources, finance, IT and other shared services. These expenses had been allocated to the Computer Sciences GS Business based on direct usage or benefit where identifiable, with the remainder allocated on a pro rata basis of revenues, headcount, square footage, number of transactions or other measures. The Computer Sciences GS Business considered these allocations to be a reasonable reflection of the utilization of services by, or benefit provided to it. However, the allocations may not be indicative of the actual expense that would have been incurred had the Computer Sciences GS Business operated as an independent, stand-alone entity for the period presented.

CSRA INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED AND CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)


Prior to the Spin-Off, CSC maintained various benefit and share-based compensation plans at a corporate level and other benefit plans at a subsidiary level. The employees of CSRA participated in those plans and a portion of the cost of those plans for the period prior to the Spin-Off is included in the unaudited Consolidated and Condensed Financial Statements for the period prior to the Spin-Off. However, the unaudited Combined Condensed Balance Sheets do not include any net benefit plan obligations unless the benefit plan covered only the Company’s active, retired and other former employees or any expense related to share­ based compensation plans. See Notes 11—Pension and Other Post-retirement Benefit Plans and Note 12—Share-Based Compensation Plans for further information about our benefit plans and share-based compensation, respectively.
For the period presented prior to the Spin-Off, the unaudited financial statements include current and deferred income tax expense that has been determined for the legacy Computer Sciences GS Business as if it were a separate taxpayer (i.e., following the separate return methodology).
CSRA reports its results based on a fiscal year convention that comprisescomprised of four thirteen-week quarters. Every fifth year includes an additional week in the first quarter to prevent the fiscal year from moving from an approximate end of March date.
Contract accounting requires significant judgment relative to assessing risks, estimating contract revenue and costs, and making assumptions for schedule and technical issues. Due to the size and nature of many of CSRA’s contracts, developing total revenue and costs at completion estimates requires significant judgment. Contract costs include direct labor and billable expenses, allocation of allowable indirect costs, and warranty obligations. CSRA recognizes revenue and billable expenses from these transactions on a gross basis because it is the primary obligor on contracts with customers. The contracts that required estimates-at-completion (“EACs”) using the percentage-of-completion method were approximately 35%, and 37% of CSRA’s revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2017, and July 1, 2016, respectively.

Use of Estimates

GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain amounts reported in the unaudited Consolidated and Condensed Financial Statements and accompanying notes. These estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of historical experience, current events, and various other assumptions that management considers reasonable under the circumstances.reasonable. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Amounts subject to significant judgment and/or estimates include, but are not limited to,to: determining the fair valuevalues of assetassets acquired and liabilities assumed, determining the fair value of derivative instruments and non-financial assets such as internally developed software for internal use; costs to complete fixed-price contracts, cash flows used in the evaluation of impairment of goodwill and other long-lived intangible assets, certain deferred costs, collectability of receivables, reserves for tax benefits, andincluding valuation allowances on deferred tax assets, loss accruals for litigation, and inputs used for computing share-based compensation and pension related liabilities.

Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between marketplace participants. The accounting guidance for fair value measurements establishes a three level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
Level 1— Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2— Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities or quoted market prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active.     
Level 3— Valuations derived from valuation techniques in whichwhere one or more significant inputs are observable.unobservable.
Our assetsAssets and liabilities which are valued using the fair value measurement guidance on a recurring basis includeinclude: pension assets and derivative instruments consisting(consisting of interest rate swap contracts, and total return swaps. Our pensionswaps, and foreign currency forward exchange contracts). Pension assets are valued using model based pricing methods that use observable

market data; as such these inputsand are, therefore, considered Level 2 inputs. The fair value of interest rate swaps is estimated based on valuation models that use observable interest rate yield curves as inputs. Total return swaps are settled on the last day of every fiscal month. Therefore, the value of any total return swaps outstanding as of any balance sheet date is not material. The inputs used to estimate the fair value of the Company's derivative instruments are classified as Level 2. No significant assets or liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs.
Certain assetsAssets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. These include assets and liabilitiesbasis include: those acquired in a business combination, equity-method investments, and long-lived assets, which would beare recognized at fair value if deemed to be impaired or if reclassified as assets held for sale. The fair value in these instances would beare then determined using Level 3 inputs.
The Company’s financial instruments include cash, trade receivables, vendor payables, derivative financial instruments, and debt. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, the carrying value of cash, trade receivables, and vendor payables approximated their fair value. The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments with short-term maturities are deemed to approximate their market values. The carrying amount of the Company’s long-term debt, excluding capital leases, was $2.6 billion and $2.7$2.5 billion at Septemberboth June 30, 20162017 and April 1, 2016, respectively,March 31, 2017; and approximated its fair value on September 30, 2016,those dates based on recent trading activity. The fair value of long-term debt is estimated based on the current interest rates offered to the Company for instruments with similar terms and remaining maturities, and are classified as Level 2. There were no transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy during the three months ended June 30, 2017 or the three months ended July 1, 2016.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
New Accounting Standards
During the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, CSRA adopted the following Accounting Standard UpdatesUpdate (“ASUs”ASU”):

In March 2016,2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”)FASB issued ASU 2016-09,No. 2017-07- Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment AccountingCompensation- Retirement Benefits (Topic 718)715) (“ASU 2016-09”2017-07”), which simplifies several aspectschanges the presentation of accountingnet periodic pension and post-retirement costs. The guidance requires that service costs associated with pension and post-retirement plans be presented in the same financial statement line item as the compensation cost for share-based payment award transactionsthe related to accounting foremployees. All other net benefit costs must be reported separately from income taxes, forfeitures, statutory tax withholding requirements, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification of employee taxes paid on the statements of cash flows when an employer withholds shares for tax-withholding purposes.from operations (if presented).

These activities and the Company’s evaluation of the quantitative effect of adoption will extend into future periods.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”), which supersedes the current guidance related to accounting for leases. The guidance requires lessees to recognize most leases on-balance sheet as a right of use asset and lease liability.

The standardapproach; and will be effective for the first interim period within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. CSRA is currently evaluating the impact of adoption on its financial statements.

In AugustNovember 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15,2016-18, Statement of Cash FlowsFlows: Restricted Cash (Topic 230) (“(“ASU 2016-15”2016-18”). This guidance requires the inclusion of restricted cash and restricted cash-equivalent balances in the statement of cash flows. The guidance addressesASU does not define "restricted cash" and "restricted cash equivalents." The Company will be required to include its restricted cash balance (currently classified within Prepaid and other current assets) in the concern from Stakeholders that there is diversity in practice in how certain cash receiptsCash and cash payments areequivalents balance presented and classified in the Statementstatement of Cash Flows.

Note 2—Related-Party Transactions and Corporate Allocations
Corporate Allocations
The unaudited Consolidated and Condensed Financial Statements include an allocation of general corporate expenses from CSC for the period prior to Spin-Off. The financial information in these unaudited Consolidated and Condensed Financial Statements does not necessarily include all the expenses that would have been incurred by CSRA had it been a separate, stand-alone entity during that time. The management of CSRA considered these allocations to be a reasonable reflection of the utilization of services by, or the benefits provided to, it. The allocation methods include relative headcount, actual services rendered and relative space utilization. Allocations for management costs and corporate support services provided to CSRA totaled $48.0 million and $104.7 million for the three and six months ended October 2, 2015, respectively. These amounts include costs for corporate functions, including, but not limited to, senior management, legal, human resources, finance, IT and other shared services. Following the Spin-Off, CSRA performs all corporate functions that were previously performed by CSC.
Transition Agreements
In connection with the separation and distribution, CSRA entered into certain agreements that govern the respective rights and responsibilities between CSC and CSRA. CSRA entered into an Intellectual Property Matters Agreement with CSC that governs the respective rights and responsibilities between CSRA and CSC with respect to intellectual property owned or used by each of the companies. Pursuant to the Intellectual Property Matters Agreement, CSC granted CSRA a perpetual, royalty-free, non-assignable license to certain know-how, certain software products, trademarks and workflow and design methodologies.
CSRA pays CSC an annual net maintenance fee of $30.0 million per year for five years in exchange for maintenance and support of products licensed from CSC. On December 9, 2015, CSRA paid the maintenance fee for year one, which is included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets in the unaudited Consolidated and Condensed Balance Sheets and amortized on a straight line basis over one year. During the three and six months ended September 30, 2016, CSRA amortized $7.5 million and $15.0 million, respectively, which is included in Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) in the unaudited Consolidated and Condensed Statements of Operations.
CSRA entered into a Tax Matters Agreement with CSC that governs the respective rights, responsibilities and obligations of CSC and CSRA with respect to all tax matters. CSRA has joint and several liability with CSC to the IRS for the consolidated U.S. Federal income taxes of the CSC consolidated group relating to the taxable periods in which CSRA was part of that group. During the three and six months ended September 30, 2016, CSRA did not incur charges payable to CSC under the Tax Matters Agreement.
CSRA entered into a Real Estate Matters Agreement with CSC that governs the respective rights and responsibilities between CSRA and CSC following the Spin-Off with respect to certain real property used by CSRA. For the three and six months ended September 30, 2016, the rental income from CSC associated with the Real Estate Matters Agreement was not significant.

Note 3—Acquisitions and Divestitures

There were no acquisitions or divestitures of other businesses during the six months ended September 30, 2016. There were no acquisitions of other businesses during the six months ended October 2, 2015.

Fiscal 2016 Divestiture

On April 27, 2015, the Computer Sciences GS Business divested its wholly owned subsidiary, Welkin Associates Limited (“Welkin”), a provider of systems engineering and technical assistance services to the intelligence community and other U.S. Department of Defense clients. The Computer Sciences GS Business received consideration of $34.0 million, and recorded a pre-tax gain on the sale of $18.5 million, which was included in Other expense (income), net in the Consolidated and Condensed Statements of Operations for the six months ended October 2, 2015. Included in the divested net assets of $13.8 million was $10.7 million of goodwill and transaction costs of $1.7 million. The divestiture did not qualify to be presented as discontinued operations as it did not represent a strategic shift that would have a major effect on the Computer Sciences GS Business’s operations and financial results.

Fiscal 2016 Acquisition

As discussed in Note 1—Description of the Business, Basis of Presentation and Recent Accounting Pronouncements, on November 30, 2015, CSRA completed its previously announced Mergers which resulted in SRA Parent merging with and into a wholly owned subsidiary of CSRA. As a result, SRA became an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of CSRA.
The Mergers are reflected in CSRA’s financial statements using the acquisition method of accounting, with CSRA being considered the accounting acquirer of SRA. The total merger consideration (“Merger Consideration”) transferred was $2.3 billion, which consisted of (1) $390.0 million in cash (gross of cash acquired of $48.3 million), (2) 25,170,564 shares of CSRA common stock representing in the aggregate 15.32% of the total number of shares of CSRA common stock outstanding, (3) $1.1 billion related to SRA debt and (4) $29.9 million of acquiree-related transaction costs. The fair market value of shares was determined based on a volume-weighted average price of $30.95 per CSRA share on November 30, 2015, the first day of CSRA’s regular-way trading on the NYSE.
CSRA recorded, on a preliminary basis, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair value, with the difference between the fair value of the net assets acquired and the purchase consideration reflected as goodwill. See Note 7—Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets for further discussion of the measurement considerations for acquired intangible assets. The following table reflects the preliminary fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of November 30, 2015 (including adjustments subsequent to closing):
 Preliminary allocation (in millions):Amount
 Cash, accounts receivable and other current assets $302
 Property, equipment and other long-term assets46
 Intangibles—customer relationships, backlog and other intangibles assets891

 Other long-term liabilities(26)
 Deferred tax liabilities(258)
 Total identified net assets acquired762
 Goodwill1,538
 Estimated total purchase consideration and liabilities paid at closing $2,300

In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016, the Company made certain adjustments to provisional amounts previously recognized, which resulted in a $12.3 million reduction of the goodwill, which are reflected in the table above. In the second quarter of fiscal year 2017, the Company made additional adjustments to the provisional amounts related to tax-related items and facility exit charges, which resulted in a net $2.2 million decrease of

goodwill. The goodwill recognized in the acquisition is attributable to the intellectual capital, the acquired assembled work force, and expected cost synergies, none of which qualify for recognition as a separate intangible asset. The goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes. Goodwill arising from the acquisition has been allocated to CSRA’s reporting units based on the relative fair value of assets acquired. The resulting allocation to CSRA’s reportable segments was as follows: $334.4 million allocated to Defense and Intelligence and $1.2 billion allocated to Civil.
The Company’s allocation of goodwill remains preliminary until the resolution of certain unresolved tax matters, which the Company expects to conclude during the third quarter, consequently, the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are subject to change.
Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information
The following unaudited pro forma financial information presents results as if the Spin-Off and the Mergers and the related financing had occurred prior to April 3, 2015. The historical consolidated financial information of CSRA and SRA has been adjusted in the pro forma information to give effect to the events that are: (1) directly attributable to the transactions, (2) factually supportable, and (3) expected to have a continuing impact on the consolidated results. The consolidated financial information of SRA includes merger and integration costs that are not expected to recur and impact the consolidated results over the long term. The unaudited pro forma results do not reflect future events that have occurred or may occur after the transactions, including but not limited to, the impact of any actual or anticipated synergies expected to result from the Mergers. Accordingly, the unaudited pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations as they would have been had the transactions been effected prior to April 3, 2015, nor is it necessarily an indication of future operating results.

Note 4—Earnings Per Share

On November 27, 2015, the date that CSRA’s common stock was distributed to CSC shareholders in the Spin-Off, CSRA had 139,128,158 common shares outstanding. The calculation of both basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended October 2, 2015 utilized this number of common shares because at that time, CSRA did not operate as a separate, stand-alone entity, and no equity-based awards were outstanding in the period.
The calculation of basic earnings per share for the three and six months ended September 30, 2016 utilized and 163,824,108 and 163,550,807 shares, respectively,based on the weighted-average shares outstanding during the period. The calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended September 30, 2016 utilized 165,084,003 and 164,881,819 shares, respectively, reflecting the dilutive impact of 1,259,895 and 1,331,012 shares, respectively, of outstanding stock options, restricted stock units, and performance-based stock units issued or granted. The computation of diluted earnings per share excluded stock options and restricted stock units, whose effect, if included, would have been anti-dilutive. The number of shares related to such stock options was 2,458,000 and 2,203,008 for the three and six months ended September 30, 2016, respectively.

Note 5—2—Sale of Receivables

CSRA is the seller of certain accounts receivable under a Master Accounts Receivable Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) that was entered into on April 21, 2015 with the Royal Bank of Scotland, PLC (“RBS”), as Purchaser, along with Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group Ltd, and Bank of Nova Scotia, each as a Participant, for the continuous non-recourse sale of CSRA’s eligible trade receivables.
The Purchase Agreement with RBS was subsequently amended, and RBS assigned its rights as a purchaser to The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd., The Bank of Nova Scotia, and Mizuho Bank, Ltd., each as a Purchaser.

The amended agreement also convertedPurchaser, for the receivables purchase facility (the “Facility”) to a committed facility and extended the initial term to a two-year period.continuous non-recourse sale of CSRA’s eligible trade receivables.
Under the Facility,Purchase Agreement, CSRA sells eligible receivables, including billed receivables and certain unbilled receivables arising from “costcost plus fixed fee”fee (“CPFF”) and “timetime and materials”materials (“T&M”) contracts up to $450.0 million outstanding at any one time. CSRA has no retained interests in the transferred receivables and only performs collection and administrative functions for the Purchaser for a servicing fee.

Beginning April 2, 2016, SRA discontinued selling receivables under its separate accounts receivable purchase agreement. The SRA accounts receivable agreement was terminated as of June 27, 2016 and, at that time, SRA became an additional seller under the Purchase Agreement.

CSRA accounts for these receivable transfers as sales under ASC 860, Transfers and Servicing, and de-recognizes the sold receivables from its unaudited Consolidated and Condensed Balance Sheets. The fair value of the sold receivables approximated their book value due to their short-term nature. CSRA estimated that its servicing fee was at fair value and, therefore, no servicing asset or liability related to these servicesliability was recognized as of Septemberat either June 30, 2016 and April 1, 2016, respectively.2017 or March 31, 2017.

Note 6—3—Derivative Instruments
Derivatives Designated for Hedge Accounting
Interest-rate swaps
The Company utilizesuses derivative financial instruments to manage interest rate risk related to its Term Loan A Facilities. The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective,these objectives, the Company uses pay-fixed interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. As of both SeptemberJune 30, 20162017 and April 1, 2016,March 31, 2017, the Company had outstanding pay-fixed interest rate derivatives with a notional value of $1.4 billion, which were designated as a cash flow hedge of interest rate risk.
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”), net of taxes, and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. Amounts reportedThere was no ineffective portion in AOCIeither the three months ended June 30, 2017 or July 1, 2016.
Foreign Currency Forward Exchange Contracts
The Company transacts business in various foreign currencies, which subjects its cash flows and earnings to exposure related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The exposure arises primarily from purchases from or sales to third parties. Foreign currency forward exchange contracts provide for the purchase or sale of foreign currencies at specified future dates at specified exchange rates; and are used to offset changes in the fair value of forecasted cash flows related to transactions denominated in foreign currencies. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, the Company began hedging certain of these forecasted cash flows. As of June 30, 2017, the Company had outstanding foreign currency forward exchange contracts with notional amounts totaling $17.2 million. Neither the fair value of these derivatives at June 30, 2017 nor the gain or loss reclassified into earnings from AOCI nor any recognized amount related to the ineffective portion of the derivative instruments during the three months ended June 30, 2017 was significant. We do not expect amounts that will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable-rate debt. The Company reclassified $2.6 million and $5.5 million of interest rate expense from AOCI into earnings in the Consolidated and Condensed Statements of Operations for the three and six months ending September 30, 2016, respectively. Duringwithin the next twelve months to be significant. The notional values consist primarily of contracts for the Company estimates that approximately $5.0 million, netMexican peso, Columbia peso, and Canadian dollar, and are stated in U.S. dollar equivalents.
Fair Value of tax, will be reclassified from AOCI into earnings.Derivative Instruments
The fair values of derivative instruments are presented on a gross basis as none of the Company’s derivative contracts are subject to master netting arrangements. The fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments was a liabilityan asset of $15.9$14.8 million and $11.1$18.2 million as of SeptemberJune 30, 20162017 and April 1, 2016,March 31, 2017, respectively. These derivative instruments are classified by their short- and long-term components based on the fair value of the anticipated timing of their cash flows. TheFor net asset positions, the current portion is included in the Accrued expensesPrepaid and other current liabilitiesassets and the long-term portion is included in Other long-term liabilitiesassets in the unaudited Consolidated and Condensed Balance Sheets.There was no significant impact to the Company’s earnings related to the ineffective portion of any hedging instruments during both the three months ended June 30, 2017 or July 1, 2016.

Derivatives Not Designated for Hedge Accounting
Total Return Swaps

The Company utilizesuses total return swap derivative contracts to manage exposure to the market volatility of the notional investments underlying the Company’sits deferred compensation obligations. These arrangements are entered into monthly and are settled on the last day of every fiscal month. For accounting purposes, these derivatives are not designated as hedges. As changes in the fair value of the deferred compensation liabilities are recognized in Cost of services and Selling, general and administrative expenses, so too are the changes in the fair value of the total return swaps derivative contracts. Amounts related to the total return swaps recognized in both the three and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017 and July 1, 2016 were not significant.
Concentrations of Risk
The Company is subject to counterparty risk in connection with its interest rate swap derivative contracts. Credit risk related to a derivative financial instrument represents the possibility that the counterparty will not fulfill the terms of the contract. The Company mitigates this credit risk by entering into agreements with credit-worthy counterparties. As of Septemberboth June 30, 20162017 and March 31, 2017, there was one counterparty with greater than a 10% concentration of our total exposure.

Note 7—4—Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
In connection with acquisitions of other businesses, CSRA recognized goodwill and other intangible assets, which includes customer relationships intangibles, backlog, and contract-related intangibles. In addition, the Company records acquired and developed software technology as an intangible asset. The Company’s goodwill and other intangible assets arose primarily from the merger with SRA International Inc. (“SRA”) in fiscal year 2016.
Goodwill
In November 2015, CSRA recorded $1.5 billion of goodwill acquired from the SRA acquisition, which wasGoodwill is allocated to each reportable segment based on the relative fair value of net assets acquired. As discussed in Note 3, during the second quarter of fiscal year 2017, the Company made further adjustments related to the acquisition of SRA, which resulted in a $2.2 million decrease of goodwill. This decrease was allocated as $0.9 million to the Defense and Intelligence segment and $1.3 million to the Civil segment. There were no other changes in the balance of goodwill or the allocations to theCSRA’s reportable segments during either the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017 or July 1, 2016.
Testing for Goodwill Impairment
CSRAThe Company tests goodwill for impairment annually on an annual basis, as of the first day of the second fiscal quarter,quarter; and between annual tests if an event occurs, or circumstances change, that would more“more likely than notnot” reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. At the end of each annual and quarterly period, CSRA assesses whether there wereany such events or changes in circumstancesoccurred that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of any of its reporting units below their carrying amount and require goodwill to be tested for impairment.
For CSRA’s annual goodwill impairment assessment as ofOn July 2, 2016, CSRA chose to bypass the initial qualitative assessment and proceeded directly to the first stepdate of theCSRA’s last annual impairment test, for all reporting units. Based on the results of the first step of the impairment test, CSRACompany concluded that the fair value of each reporting unit significantly exceeded its carrying value,value. As of June 30, 2017, CSRA assessed and therefore, the second step of thedetermined that there have been no indicators that required management to perform an interim goodwill impairment assessment test was not required.. There were no accumulated impairment losses at either June 30, 2017 or March 31, 2017.
Other Intangible Assets

On November 30, 2015, CSRA acquired $891 million of otherOther intangible assets as described in Note 3—Acquisitions and Divestitures, which consistedconsist primarily of customer relationships intangibles, backlog, and technology. Acquired intangible assets have been recorded at their preliminary estimated fair value through the use ofusing various discounted cash flow valuation techniques. These valuation techniques that incorporated Level 3 inputs as described under the fair value hierarchy of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements (“ASC 820”). TheseThe unobservable inputs used reflect CSRA’s own assumptions about whichthe assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset on a non-recurring basis.

Letters of Credit and Surety Bonds
In the normal course of business, CSRA may provide certain customers, principally governmental entities, with financial performance guarantees, which are generally backed by stand-by letters of credit or surety bonds. In general, CSRA would only be liable for the amounts of these guarantees in the event that nonperformance by CSRA permits termination of the related contract by the customer. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017 and March 31, 2017, CSRA had $45$20.6 million and $20.2 million respectively, of outstanding letters of credit, and $12$12.5 million and $12.0 million, respectively of surety bonds related to these performance guarantees. CSRA believes it is in compliance in all material respects with its performance obligations under all service contracts for which there is a financial performance guarantee and the ultimate liability, if any, incurred in connection with these guarantees will not have a material adverse effect on its unaudited Consolidated and Condensed Financial Statements.

Other Commitments
CSRA generally indemnifies licensees of its proprietary software products against claims brought by third parties alleging infringement of intellectual property rights (including rights in patents, copyrights, trademarks, and trade secrets). CSRA’s indemnification of its licensees relates to costs arising from court awards, negotiated settlements and the related legal and internal costs of those licensees. CSRA maintains the right, at its own costs, to modify or replace software in order to eliminate any infringement. Historically, CSRA has not incurred any significant costs related to licensee software indemnifications.
In May 2017, CSRA executed an agreement for the acquisition of NES for $105 million in cash, subject to closing adjustments. The acquisition was settled in July 2017 and was funded from cash on hand and increased borrowings.
Contingencies
CSRA accrues a liability when management believes that it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated under applicable accounting guidance. CSRA believes it has appropriately recognized liabilities for any such matters. In addition to the matters noted below, CSRA is currently party to a number of disputes which involve or may involve litigation. CSRA assessed reasonably possible losses for all other such pending legal or other proceedings in the aggregate and concluded that the range of potential loss is not material.

CSRA is routinely subject to investigations and reviews relating to compliance with various laws and regulations with respectrelating to its role as a contractor to federal, state, and local government customers and in connection with performing services in countries outside of the U.S. Adverse findings in these investigations or reviews can lead to criminal, civil, or administrative proceedings, and CSRA could face penalties, fines, compensatory damages,

and suspension or debarment from doing business with governmental agencies. In addition, CSRA could suffer serious reputational harm if allegations of impropriety were made against CSRA. Adverse findings could also have a material adverse effect on CSRA’s business and its unaudited Consolidated and Condensed Financial Statements due to itsCSRA’s reliance on government contracts.
U.S. federal government agencies, including the Defense Contract Audit Agency (“DCAA”), Defense Contract Management Agency (“DCMA”), and others, routinely audit and review a contractor’s performance on government contracts, indirect rates, and pricing practices, and compliance with applicable contracting and procurement laws, regulations, and standards. These agencies also review the adequacy of the contractor’s compliance with government standards for its business systems including: a contractor’s accounting system, earned value management system, estimating system, materials management and accounting system, property management system, and purchasing system. Both contractors and the U.S. federal government agencies conducting these audits and reviews have come under increased scrutiny, including such subjects as billing practices, labor charging and accounting for unallowable costs.
CSRA’s indirect cost audits by the DCAA (including audits of both CSRA LLC and SRA) remain open for fiscal 2004 and subsequentseveral fiscal years. Although the Computer Sciences GS Business hasCompany recorded contract revenues subsequent to and including fiscal 2004 based upon an estimateestimates of costs that the Computer Sciences GS Business

Company’s management believes will be approved upon final audit or review, the Computer Sciences GS Businessmanagement does not know the outcome of any ongoing or future audits or reviews and adjustments, and if future adjustments exceed the Computer Sciences GS Business’sthese estimates, itsCSRA’s profitability would be adversely affected.
The DCAA has not completed audits of SRA’s incurred cost submissions for fiscal 2009 and subsequent fiscal years. SRA has recorded financial results subsequent to fiscal 2008 based upon costs that SRA believes will be approved upon final audit or review. If incurred cost audits result in adverse findings that exceed SRA’s estimates, it may have an adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
As of SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, CSRA has recorded a liability of $16.8$16.1 million for its current best estimate of net amounts to be refunded to customers for potential adjustments from such audits or reviews of contract costs. This amount includes potential adjustments related to both pre-separation and post-separation audits or reviews.
In connection withLegal Proceedings
The Company is involved in various lawsuits, claims, and administrative proceedings arising in the salenormal course of ATD in fiscal 2014, CSC transferred its joint venture interests in Computer Sciences Raytheon (“CSR”) as part ofbusiness, including many that arose before the ATD sale transaction. CSR is a joint venture formed between CSC and Raytheon Technical Services Company, and its sole business is performance of a single contract for a DoD customer. CSR is the plan sponsor of the CSR pension plan, which was terminated in connection with the termination of the CSR contract with the customer. CSC agreed with the purchaser of ATD that CSC would fund the purchaser’s share of the CSR pension settlement obligation upon plan termination. In addition, the agreement with the purchaser provides that the eventual expected recovery by CSR of such plan termination settlement costs from the customer as provided for under federal Cost Accounting Standards (“CAS”) Section 413, whereby contractors may recover such costs from the government plus interest, will be reimbursed to the business. The CSR pension plan termination process commenced in September 2015. The share of the funding obligation that was attributable to the purchaser and, therefore, to be advanced by CSC, was initially estimated at $26.0 million. The ultimate plan termination settlement funding obligation is based on economic factors, including long-term interest rates that impact the cost of annuities offered by insurers at the time of the actual plan termination settlement. The fair value of CSC’s funding advance obligation net of subsequent expected recoveries was recorded by CSRA prior to CSRA’sCompany’s separation from CSC. As part ofSee Note 21—Commitments and Contingencies in CSRA’s Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements for the separation, CSC and CSRA agreed that CSC would transfer all rights, title and interest offiscal year ended March 31, 2017 for additional information. During the agreement to fund the CSR pension settlement obligation that would otherwise be the responsibility of CSC to CSRA. Consequently, in September 2016, the Company made a payment to escrow of $24.7 million to fund CSC’s CSR pension settlement obligation.

Unless otherwise noted, CSRA is unable to develop a reasonable estimate of a possible loss or range of losses associated withthree months ended June 30, 2017, the following contingent matters at this time.significant developments arose with respect to these matters:

Maryland Medicaid Enterprise Restructuring Project
After competitive bidding on March 1, 2012, CSC was awarded theState of Maryland, Medicaid Enterprise Restructuring Project (“MERP”)
On June 21, 2017 the Circuit Court for Anne Arundel County, Maryland granted the motion of the Maryland Office of the Attorney General (“OAG”) to dismiss CSCs complaint seeking a declaratory judgment that the Maryland False Health Claims Act of 2010 does not apply to the MERP contract byand does not authorize the OAG to undertake discovery related thereto. The Court’s decision has no effect on the litigation of CSC’s contract claims against the State of Maryland (the “State”(“State”) to modernize, currently pending before the Medicaid Management Information System (“MMIS”), a databaseMaryland Board of Medicaid recipients and providers usedContracts Appeals, relating to manage Medicaid reimbursement claims. The MERP contract was predominately fixed-price. Since the date the MERP was awarded, U.S. federal government-mandated Medicaid IT standards have been in considerable flux. The State directed CSC to include additional functionality in the design to incorporate new federal mandates and guidance promulgated after the base scope of the Contract was finalized. Further, the State declined to approve contract modifications to compensate CSC for the additional work.

As a result of the State’s refusal to amend the MERP contract and equitably adjust the compensation to be paid to CSC and, in accordance with prescribed State statutes and regulations, CSC timely filed a certified contract claim in September 2013, which after various procedural developments is now pending before the Maryland Board of Contracts Appeals (the “State Board”).
On August 22, 2014, the State unilaterally suspended performance under the Contract for 90 days and repeatedly extended the suspension until providing a Notice of Default termination in October 2015. As the result of the suspension and other actions and inactions by the State in performance of its obligations under the Contract, in October 2014, CSC filed additional claims under various legal theories, such that currently the total amount claimed by CSC is approximately $80.0 million.

Between April 2015 and September 2015, CSCCSC. Settlement discussions on CSC’s and the State were in settlement negotiations to restructure the program and resolve all issues, including CSC’s contract claims. However, on September 14, 2015, the State orally advised CSC that the State elected to abandon the contract settlement and restructuring discussions. On October 14, 2015, the State provided CSC with a Notice of Default Termination. When a contract is terminated for default, Maryland procurement regulations allow the State to procure substitute performance, with the contractor being liable for any excess reprocurement costs. Any State claim against CSC arising from a default termination for reprocurement costs would be appealable by CSC to the State Board, as is the default termination itself. The State has not asserted a claim for reprocurement costs and, were it do so, CSC believes such a claim to be meritless and unsupported by the facts.

CSRA challenged the legal basis of the State’s termination for default in a Claim for $83.0 million filed with the State on December 14, 2015. The Claim subsumes the quantum of the prior claims and seeks to convert the termination to a convenience termination. The State has not rendered a decision on the latest claim; however, if it is denied, CSRA will appeal through litigation at the State Board.

On December 22, 2015, the State filed a Motion to Dismiss CSC’s Claim with the State Board. CSC responded to the State’s Motion to Dismiss on January 19, 2016. As set forth in CSC’s extensive brief, the four arguments made in the State’s Motion are based on an incomplete and flawed discussion of the Contract and the factual record. On May 6, 2016, the State Board held a hearing on the Department’s motion and decided to take the motion under advisement. The Board requested that the Department move expeditiously to arrive at a final decision on CSC’s other claims and indicated that it would then consolidate the claims going forward and, at that time, might issue a decision on the Department’s motion. When all of the material parts of the Contract and record are considered, CSRA believes that CSC is entitled to prevail on all of the issues raised by the Department’s motion.
On July 14, 2016, CSRA received a copy of a claim for breach of contract against CSC filed by the DHMH Contract Monitor with the DHMH Procurement Officer (the “State Claim”). The claim was filed in accordance with Maryland State procedure for claims against State contractors. If the DHMH Procurement Officer takes final action on the claim — which is likely to be an approval thereof — CSC and/or CSRA will be able to appeal to the State Board.
The State Claim seeks damages in excess of $30.0 million. Categories of damages include: the full amount paid to CSC, $30.0 million; costs to be incurred by the State in procuring substitute performance; amounts paid by the

State to its project management consultant; lost federal reimbursement from CMS; and additional costs incurred by the State, including wages, attributable to CSC’s alleged breach.
The State Claim is based solely on issues raised in the State’s February 14, 2014, and March 14, 2014, cure notices which were fully addressed by CSC in the relevant timeframe. No new facts are contained in the State Claim. Subsequent to the cure notices, the State unilaterally suspended contract performance for over one year.
The parties have resumed exploring potential settlement options but have not concluded any settlement. If those are not successful, litigation will proceedprogressed, and CSC has resumed litigation. CSRA expects to consolidate, on behalf of CSC, all of itsCSC’s claims against the State with any claims arising from the default termination. CSRA will litigate on behalf of CSC and indemnify CSC for the costs of litigation and any other costs or liabilities CSC may incur in the litigation. Recovery by CSC will be credited to CSRA. Management has evaluated the recoverability of assets related to the contract in light of these developments and concluded that no adjustments to its financial statements are required. Further, we have assessed the legal risk associated with the State ClaimState’s claim under ASC 450accounting guidance for contingencies and have concluded at this time that no reserve is required.
Strauch et al. Fair Labor Standards Act Class Action
On July 1, 2014, plaintiffs filed Strauch and Colby v. Computer Sciences Corporation inJune 30, 2017 the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut a putative nationwidegranted class action allegingcertification for former employees classified as Associate Professionals or as Professionals working in the states of California and Connecticut who worked more than 40 hours per week. The Court denied class certification for all class members in North Carolina on the basis that CSC violated provisions ofNorth Carolina law is preempted by the Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”) with respect to system administrators who worked for CSC at any time from June 1, 2011 to the present. Plaintiffs claim that CSC improperly classified its system administrators as exempt from the FLSA and that CSC, therefore, owes them overtime wages and associated relief available under the FLSA and various statutes, including the Connecticut Minimum Wage Act, the California Unfair Competition Law, California Labor Code, California Wage Order No. 4-2001, and the California Private Attorneys General Act. CSC’s Motion to Transfer VenueIn addition, class certification was denied in February 2015. In September 2015, plaintiffs filed an amended complaint, which added claims under Missouri and North Carolina wage and hour laws. The relief sought by Plaintiffs includes unpaid overtime compensation, liquidated damages, pre- and post-judgment interest, damages in the amount of twice the unpaid overtime wages due, and civil penalties. If a liability is ultimately incurred as a result of these claims, CSRA would pay a portion to CSC pursuant to an indemnity obligation. CSC and CSRA both maintain the position that system administrators have the job duties, responsibilities, and salaries of exemptformer employees and are properly classified as exempt from overtime compensation requirements.

On June 9, 2015,Senior Professionals in California and Connecticut.  The Company filed a petition for review of the Court entered an order granting the plaintiffs’ motion for conditionalpartial certification of the class with the Second Circuit on July 14, 2017.
Southwest Asia Employment Contract Litigation
On June 28, 2017, the Fourth Circuit ruled against CSC on its appeal of system administrators. The conditionally certified FLSA and putative classes include approximately 1,285 system administrators,the District Court’s award of whom 407 are employed by CSRAattorneys’ fees to the Rishell plaintiff. No additional accrual for indemnification of fees was necessary at June 30, 2017.
In the case pending before the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana, on July 15, 2017, claims of 58 plaintiffs have been dismissed, and the remainder employed by CSC. Courts typically undertake a two-stage review in determining whether a suit may proceed as a class action under the FLSA. In its order, the Court noted that, as a first step, the Court examines pleadings and affidavits, and if it finds that proposed class members are similarly situated, the class is conditionally certified. Potential class members are then notified and given an opportunity to opt-in to the action. The second step of the class certification analysis occurs upon completion of discovery. At that point, the Court will examine all evidence then in the record to determine whether there is a sufficient basis to conclude that the proposed class members are similarly situated. If it is determined that they are, the case will proceed to trial; if it is determined they are not, the class is decertified and only the individual claims of the purported class representatives proceed. CSRA’s and CSC’s position in this litigation continuesremaining 37 plaintiffs have been limited, on the basis that these claims were untimely under Louisiana law. The Company has reduced the range of the possible losses for which it would be required to be that the employees identified as belongingindemnify CSC to the conditional class were paid in accordance with the FLSA and applicable state laws.$0.6 million to $1.3 million.

CECOM Rapid Response Demand Letter

On July 12, 2013,August 9, 2017, CSRA announced that its Board of Directors had declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.10 per share.  Payment of the U.S. Army’s Communications-Electronics Command (“CECOM”) issued a demand letter based upon DCAA audit reports and Form 1, for reimbursement in the amount of $235.2 million in costs that CSC allegedly overcharged under its Rapid Response (“R2”) contract (Contract No. DAAB07-03-D-B007) by placing CSC, interdivisional, teammate, and vendor employees in R2 labor categories for which they were not qualified. CSC’s position has been that, in most instances, the individuals in question met the contract requirements for their labor categories, and that, in all instances, DCAA and CECOM have ignored the value the government received for CSC’s work. CSC and CECOM have engaged in discussions in an attempt to resolve this issue but, at this point in time, there can be no assurance that the partiesdividend will be ablemade on October 3, 2017 to resolve their differences, in which case CSRA expects to litigate this matter.

DynCorp

In connection with CSC’s acquisitionstockholders of DynCorp in 2003 and its divestiturerecord at the close of substantially all of that business in two separate transactions (in 2005 to The Veritas Capital Fund II L.P. and DI Acquisition Corp. and in 2013 to Pacific Architects and Engineers, Incorporated (collectively, the “DynCorp Divestitures”)), CSC assumed and Computer Sciences GS Business will retain various environmental indemnities of DynCorp and its former subsidiaries arising from environmental representations and warranties under which DynCorp agreed to indemnify the purchasers of its subsidiaries DynAir Tech and DynAir Services by Sabreliner Corporation and ALPHA Airports Group PLC, respectively. As part of the DynCorp Divestitures, CSC also assumed and Computer Sciences GS Business will also retain indemnities for insured litigation associated with dormant suits by former employees of DynCorp subsidiaries alleging exposure to asbestos and other substances; other indemnities related to a 2001 case arising from counter-narcotics spraying in Colombia under a U.S. Department of State contract and an environmental remediation case involving HRI, a former wholly owned subsidiary of DynCorp, in Lawrenceville, New Jersey. CSRA does not anticipate any material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows from these indemnities. Litigation involving DynCorp’s aviation insurance underwriters was recently resolved and had no significant effect on our results for fiscal yearAugust 29, 2017.

Southwest Asia Employment Contract Litigation

Rishell v. CSC, a single plaintiff lawsuit, was filed in February 2013 in Florida.  In April 2013, a second lawsuit, Rhodes v. CSC, with five plaintiffs was filed in Mississippi.  Both cases were consolidated beforeOn August 8, 2017, we extended the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia in 2014.  Summary judgment was granted in each case on December 10, 2014, with the Rishell case decided under Florida law and the Rhodes case under Virginia law.
On May 2, 2016, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit ruled against CSC in an appeal of these two consolidated cases, the liability for which the Company is contractually obligated to indemnify CSC pursuant to the termsterm of the Master Separation and DistributionPurchase Agreement between CSRA and CSC. These cases involved six former CSC employees with eachunder which we sell certain of whom CSC had entered into two contracts upon employment: a general “Offer Letter” specifying an “hourly rate” to be paid biweekly, and a more specific “Foreign Travel Letter” specifying certain aspects of the employees’ employment while working overseas in Southwest Asia as civilian government contractors. Employees had sued CSC, claiming entitlement to be paid on an hourly rate, as specified in the Offer Letter, as opposed to being paid on a salary basis, which is how CSC compensated them. The District Court had held as a matter of contract interpretation that the two contracts, read together, required CSC to pay the employees by the hour. The Fourth Circuit in its May 2 unpublished opinion agreed with the trial court. A reserveour accounts receivable for the amount of damages awarded by the trial court and for which the Company will be required to indemnify CSC has been included in the Company’s Consolidated and Condensed Financial Statements.

In addition to the two consolidated cases that were the subject of the Fourth Circuit’s opinion, there are currently an additional six similar cases, involving approximately 100 individuals, pending before federal and state courts in California, Louisiana, and Virginia that have yet to be adjudicated. Plaintiffs in these cases present similar claims, that they worked in excess of 40 hours per week, they were compensated with a salary based on a 40-hour work week, and this violated the terms of their Offer Letters that quoted an hourly wage. It is reasonably possibleone year.

that the trial courts considering these cases will interpret the Offer Letter and Foreign Travel Letter at issue in these other cases similarly to the Fourth Circuit and may enter judgments against CSC awarding damages. However, there remain differences among the pending cases, including statutes of limitations, which may lengthen or shorten the period of time for when damages may be recovered, and differences between plaintiffs’ legal entitlement to other damages or awards, such as punitive damages or attorneys’ fees. These are issues of state contract or statutory law and depend upon which states’ laws apply to the individual plaintiffs. These issues have not been resolved. The range of possible losses for which the Company would be required to indemnify CSC associated with these pending matters is between $0.0 million and $14.0 million.

CSRA accrues a liability when management believes that it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated under ASC 450. CSRA believes it has appropriately recognized liabilities for any such matters. In addition to the matters noted above, CSRA is currently party to a number of disputes which involve or may involve litigation. Regarding other matters that may involve actual or threatened disputes or litigation, CSRA, in accordance with the applicable reporting requirements, provides disclosure of such matters for which the likelihood of material loss is reasonably possible. CSRA assessed reasonably possible losses for all other such pending legal or other proceedings in the aggregate and concluded that the range of potential loss is not material.

CSRA also considered the requirements regarding estimates used in the disclosure of contingencies under ASC Subtopic 275-10, Risks and Uncertainties. Based on that guidance, CSRA determined that supplemental accrual and disclosure was not required for a change in estimate that involves contingencies because CSRA determined that it was not reasonably possible that a change in estimate will occur in the near term. CSRA reviews contingencies during each interim period and adjusts its accruals to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other information and events pertaining to a particular matter.

Stock Repurchase Program

CSRA repurchased an additional 106,311 shares of common stock subsequent to September 30, 2016 through open market purchases for an aggregate consideration of $2.9 million, at an average price of $26.92 per share. CSRA paid $2.2 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2017 for 81,806 shares repurchased during the second quarter of fiscal year 2017 that had not settled in cash by September 30, 2016. As of October 12, 2016, CSRA has remaining authorization to repurchase $337.0 million of common stock pursuant to its Share Repurchase Program.

Debt Modification
In October 2016, the Company began discussions with the administrative agents of its Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facilities to amend the terms, including an extension of the maturity dates. The amended facilities are expected to provide for: (a) a reduction in the margin over indexed interest rates on the Term Loan B Facility, (b) a reduction in the principal of Term Loan B Facility and an increase in the principal balance of the Tranche A2 Facility in substantially the same amount; and (c) changes to certain existing debt covenants to provide for greater operational and financial flexibility. The transaction is expected to be completed during the third quarter of fiscal year 2017.

Financial Overview
The key operating resultsIn the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, we completed the following significant transactions:
•In June 2017, we completed an amendment of our debt facilities to reduce our interest rate on certain borrowings, and reallocate unpaid principal balances among portions of the facility.
•We used our positive cash flow to repurchase 450,000 shares in CSRA common stock for $14.3 million, in aggregate, at an average price of $31.71 per share, and paid $16.8 million in dividends. We paid $1.6 million in July 2017 for 50,000 additional shares of CSRA common stock, at an average price of $31.77 per share, that had been repurchased in June 2017 but had not settled in cash by June 30.
•In May 2017, we executed an agreement for the acquisition of NES Associates, LLC (“NES”) for approximately $105 million in cash, subject to closing adjustments. NES is a provider of IT services to the U.S. government. On June 30, 2017, the Company drew $55 million on its revolving credit facility in order to fund the settlement of its purchase of NES in July 2017. As a result, NES became a wholly-owned subsidiary of CSRA at the beginning of the second quarter of fiscal year 2018.

(1) Total segment operating incomeFree cash flow is a non-GAAP measure that provides useful information toand our management for assessment of our performance and results of operations and is one of the financial measures utilized to determine executive compensation. Our definition of such measurefree cash flow may differ from that used by other companies. We define segmentfree cash flow as equal to the sum of: (a) operating income as total segment revenue less cost of services (“COS”), segment generalcash flows; (b) investing cash flows, excluding business acquisitions, dispositions and administrative (“G&A”) expenseinvestments; and segment depreciation and amortization expense. Segment operating income excludes actuarial and settlement charges related to pension(c) payments on capital leases and other post-employment benefit plans, corporate G&A,

long-term asset financings. For comparability between periods, free cash flow is further adjusted for: (i) non-recurring separation and merger costsmerger-related payments; (ii) the amount of net proceeds received from the initial sale of billed and/or unbilled receivables at the time that we initially implemented the Master Accounts Receivable Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”); and SRA integration costs.(iii) the incremental net proceeds received from the initial sale of receivables when they first become eligible for sale under the Purchase Agreement. Free cash flow is not a substitute for operating and investing cash flows as determined in accordance with GAAP. Our management uses free cash flow in reviewing the overall performance of the business and motivating performance through incentive compensation for key business leaders. We believe that strong free cash flow is important to investors in our industry. Free cash flow provides both management and investors a measure of cash generated from operations that is available to fund acquisitions, pay dividends, repay debt, and repurchase our common stock. Management compensates forovercomes the limitations of this non-GAAP measure by also reviewing income before income taxes, which includes costs excluded from the GAAP measures of operating, income definition such as corporate G&A, interestinvesting and other income (expense). Management believes that presenting non-GAAP segment operating income is useful to investors because it (i) provides investors with meaningful supplemental information regarding financial performance by excluding certain items, (ii) permits investors to view performance using the same tools that management uses to budget, make operating and strategic decisions, and evaluate historical performance, and (iii) otherwise provides supplemental information that may be useful to investors in evaluating our results. financing cash flows.

The contribution to non-GAAP total segment operating income from net periodic pension income from CSC’s U.S. defined benefit pension plans amounted to approximately $(21) million and ($42) million for the three and six months ended October 2, 2015, respectively.

Billed receivables historically sold by SRA under a separate accounts receivable purchase agreement continue under the Purchase Agreement.
(2) Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”) is a non-GAAP measure that we believe provides useful information to investors regarding our results of operations as it provides another measure of our profitability, and our ability to service our debt, and is considered an important measure by financial analysts covering CSRA and peer companies in our industry. ThisWe changed our Adjusted EBITDA measure in fiscal year 2017 to fully remove the costs and benefits associated with out legacy defined benefits plans. Our calculation of adjusted EBITDA is based on CSRA’sour credit agreement, and among the adjustments we make is the removal of actuarial gains and losses related to our various defined benefit plans, but does not reflect removal of costs we incur to integrate our operations with those of an acquired business. While such gains and losses are ultimately settled in cash, we make these adjustments as means to more clearly demonstrate to investors our core operating performance. Our definition of such measure may differ from other companies.

We exclude the costs and benefits of legacy defined benefit plans because participation in these plans has been frozen for several years and these costs are not included in the compensation of our employees.

Business Drivers and Key Performance Indicators
We manage and assess the performance of our business through various means, with the primary financial measures, including contract wins,awards, revenue, operating income, backlog, days sales outstanding, and free cash flow. See below as well as the MD&A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for further discussion of factors that drive our business results and our key performance indicators. The following are someCertain of theseour key performance indicators for the three and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016, compared to the three and six months ended October 2, 2015.2017, were as follows:


26

•
We announced contract awards(3) of $2.4 billion and $3.7$1.6 billion for the three and six months ended September 30, 2016, respectively,first quarter of fiscal year 2018 as compared to $1.5$1.3 billion and $2.5 billion duringfor the three and six months ended October 2, 2015, respectively.first quarter of fiscal year 2017.
Revenue recognized in the first quarter of FY18 was$1.23 billion, compared to $1.25 billion in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017.

Total backlog(4) was $15.5$15.6 billion at SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, compared to $15.1$15.2 billion at April 1, 2016.March 31, 2017. Of the total $15.5 billion backlog at SeptemberJune 30, 2016, $2.32017, $2.8 billion is expected to be realized as revenue during the remainderremaining nine months of fiscal year 2017,2018, and $12.52.5 billion is not yet funded.

Days Sales Outstanding (“DSO”)(5) was 5856 days as of SeptemberJune 30, 20162017 and 5249 days as of April 1, 2016, as compared to 43 days as of October 2, 2015.March 31, 2017. The increase in DSO in the secondfirst quarter of fiscal 2017 wasis due to an increase in part, to a $25 million receivable associated with CSRA’s funding of a settlement for a legacy pension plan of Computer Sciences GS Business. Excluding this receivable,unbilled receivables late in the DSO was approximately 57 days as of September 30, 2016.period on certain contracts.

(3) Announced award values for competitive indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity awards represent the expected contract value at the time a task order is awarded under the contract. Announced values for non-competitive indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity awards represent management’s estimate at the award date. Our business awards, for all periods presented, have been revised to exclude the awards relating to discontinued operations.

(4) Backlog represents the total estimated contract value of predominantly long-term contracts, based on customer commitments that we believe to be firm, less the amount of revenue already recognized on those contracts. Backlog value is based on contract commitments, management’s judgment, and assumptions about volume of services, availability of customer funding and other factors. Backlog estimates for government contracts include both the funded and unfunded portions and all of the option periods. Backlog estimates are subject to change and may be affected by factors including modifications of contracts and foreign currency movements. Our backlog, for all periods presented, has been revised to exclude the backlog relating to discontinued operations.

(5) DSO is calculated as total receivables at the fiscal period end divided by revenue-per-day. Revenue-per-day equals total revenues divided by the number of days in the fiscal period. TotalWe revised our calculation of DSO in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 to reflect only customer receivables includes unbilled receivables but excludes tax receivables(billed and long-term receivables.

(6) Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measureunbilled) and our definition of such measure may differ from that used byexclude other companies. We define free cash flow as equalreceivable balances. Prior period data has been revised to conform to the sum of (1) operating cash flows, (2) investing cash flows, excluding business acquisitions, dispositions and investments and (3) payments on capital leases and other long-term asset financings. Free cash flow is further adjusted for certain other items, such as (i) non-recurring separation-related payments and (ii) the relative fiscal quarter impact of net proceeds arising from the initial sale of billed and/or unbilled receivables under the Master Accounts Receivable Purchase Agreement.
Our free cash flow measure does not distinguish operating cash flows from investing cash flows as they are required to be presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for operating and investing cash flows as determined in accordance with GAAP. Free cash flow is one of the factors our management uses in reviewing the overall performance of the business and motivating performance through incentive compensation for key business leaders. Management overcomes the limitations of this non-GAAP measure by also reviewing the GAAP measures of operating, investing and financing cash flows. Strong free cash flow is one of the attributes that attracts potential investors to our industry. Free cash flow provides both management and investors a measurement of cash generated from operations that is available to fund acquisitions, pay dividends, repay debt and repurchase our common stock. A reconciliation of free cash flow to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is presented below:

For the six months ended October 2, 2015, $176 million of net proceeds applies to billed and unbilled receivables principally sold by the Computer Sciences GS Business. For the six months ended September 30, 2016, net proceeds of $46 million relates to SRA unbilled receivables under the Master Accounts Receivable Purchase Agreement to which SRA was added to during the period. Billed receivables historically sold by SRA under a separate accounts receivable purchase agreement continue under the Master Accounts Receivable Purchase Agreement.

Economic and Industry Factors
For both the three and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017 and July 1, 2016, we generated approximately 94% and 93%, respectively, of our total revenues from sales to the U.S federal government either as a prime contractor or subcontractor to other prime contractors. For both the three and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017 and July 1, 2017, we generated approximately 43% and 45%, respectively, of our total revenues from the DoD (including all branches of the U.S. military) and Intelligence Community and approximately 49%57% and 55%, respectively, of our total revenues from civilian agencies.health and civil contracts. We expect to continue to derive substantially all of our revenues from work performed under U.S. federal government contracts. As a result, our business performance is affected by the overall level of U.S. government spending and the alignment of our offerings and capabilities with the budget priorities of the U.S. government. While we believe that federal discretionary spending will grow, government budget deficits and the national U.S. debt will constrain spending across many federal agencies. Adverse changes in fiscal and economic conditions, including sequestration, future government shutdowns, and issues related to the nation’s debt ceiling, could materially impact our business. Although the U.S. government has yet to finalize a budget and spending plan for the U.S. Government’s fiscal year, the U.S. Congress passed a continuing resolution bill that extends the operations of the government to September 30, 2017.
Our market is highly competitive and has characteristics unique to the federal contracting environment. Almost all of our U.S. federal government contracts and subcontracts may be modified, curtailed, or terminated either at the convenience of the government or for default based on factors set forth in the Federal Acquisition Regulation (“FAR”).


27

Our results of operations and our defined benefit plans are also impacted by economic conditions generally, including macroeconomic conditions, and the impact that they have on the U.S. federal government. We are monitoring currentmonitor macroeconomic and credit market conditions and levels of business confidence and their potential effect on our customers and on us. Our results of operations are also affected by the evolving priorities of the U.S. federal government, as well as by the pace of technological change and the type and level of technology spending by our customers. The ability to identify and capitalize on these markets and technological changes early in their cycles is a key driver of our performance.
Revenues are driven by our ability to secure new contracts and to deliver solutions and services that add value to our customers. To drive revenue growth we believe that we must deliver market-leading service offerings and deploy skilled teams of professionals quickly across all government industries and domains. We believe that our scale, and our combination of technical expertise in applications and IT infrastructure solutions, combined with our deep public sector mission knowledge and experience, firmly established vendor partnerships, and commitment to a culture of frugality, will enable us to compete effectively in the current market environment.
Results of Operations
We report our financial results based onusing a fiscal year convention that comprises four thirteen-week quarters. Every fifth fiscal year includes an additional week in the first quarter of the fiscal year to prevent the fiscal year from moving from an approximate end of March date. The secondfirst quarters of fiscal years 2018 and 2017 and fiscal 2016 wereare comprised of an equivalent number of weeks.

Excluding revenue of $363 million attributable to SRA, revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2016 amounted to $900 million, a decrease of $69 million from the second quarter of fiscal 2016. Excluding revenue of $712 million attributable to SRA, revenue for the six months ended September 30, 2016 amounted to $1,805 million, a decrease of $123 million from the first half of fiscal 2016. Revenue declined in the three and six month periods due to reductions in the Logistics Modernization Program (“LMP”) contract for the U.S. Army, as well as a lower overall volume of direct material and other direct cost purchases.Army.
Defense and Intelligence Segment

For the three and six months ended September 30, 2016, Defense and Intelligence segment revenues increased by $75 million, or 15.0%, and $137 million, or 13.6%, respectively, as compared to the same period of the prior year, primarily due to additional revenue attributable to SRA. Excluding revenue of $111 million and $225 million attributable to SRA for the three months and six months ended September 30, 2016, respectively, revenue in both periods decreased.

For the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, Defense and Intelligence segment revenues decreased by $43 million, or 7.6%, as compared to the revenue decrease wassame fiscal period of the prior year. This decline is primarily due to the downsizing$25 million decrease on the LMP contract, and the completion or wind down of the Logistics Modernization Program and a net reduction in task orders on existingother contracts, with the U.S. Army, U.S. Navy, and National Security Agency. In addition, there was reduced revenue of $11 million on certain contracts with the Missile Defense Agency and Defense Intelligence Agency that had either concluded or were winding down. These revenue reductions were partially offset by $15 million of revenue on a new classified contract.

For the six months ended September 30, 2016, the revenue decrease was primarily due to the downsizing of the Logistics Modernization Program and net reductions in tasking on other Army and National Security Agency contracts. In addition, Navy and Missile Defense Agency programs endingwhich reduced revenues $25by $44 million.

for the three and six months ended September 30, 2016, respectively, revenue in both periods decreased.

For the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, Civil segment revenues increased by $18 million, or 2.6%, as compared to the net change wassame fiscal period of the prior year. This increase is primarily due in part to reduced revenues of $26$36 million from non-federalnew programs driven primarily by one program transitioning from development to operations and maintenance. In addition, reduced tasking orders on otheracross multiple federal contracts resulted in a $9 million net reduction. For contracts with the Department of Homeland Security (“DHS”), programs ending or winding down were partially offset by increased task orders resulting in a $5 million net reduction. Offsetting the DHS revenue reduction was a $9 million increase for new contract awards with the National Institutes of Health and the Department of Transportation.

For the six months ended September 30, 2016, the decrease in revenue was driven primarily by a $24 million reduction in revenue from non-federal programs, with one program transitioning to an operations and maintenance phase. For contracts with the DHS, revenue declined by $14 million due to contracts that were completed or winding down, partially offset by contracts with increased task orders. Revenue also declined $12 million from net reductions of other federal programs. Offsetting these revenue reductions was $16 million of revenue from new task orders withagencies, but mostly within the Department of Health and Human Services.Services (“DHHS”). There also were net reductions in task orders totaling $14 million associated with certain federal agencies, and $1 million associated with DHHS. In addition, a $3 million reduction of revenue from non-federal programs was driven primarily by one program that transitioned from development to operations and maintenance work.

Operating Income
Operating income increased approximately 20.4% to $136 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 from $113 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017. This increase was due primarily to program delivery efficiencies and indirect cost reductions, which resulted in lower Cost of services (“COS”) and Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses as a percentage of revenue in the fiscal year 2018 period. In addition, amortization declined in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 due to the absence of amortization of contract backlog assets acquired in the SRA merger, which were fully depreciated by the end of fiscal year 2017.
Segment Operating Income
Segment operating income presented below excludes corporate segment costs as well as Separation and merger costs. This information is used to assess each segment’s financial performance; and is one of the financial measures used to determine executive compensation. Beginning in the three months ended June 30, 2017, we revised Segment operating income to exclude the net benefit of defined benefit plans coincident with our adoption of a recent change in accounting guidance for the presentation of retirement benefits. The prior period has been revised to conform with the current period presentation. For additional information about Segment Operating Income, including a reconciliation to Operating Income under GAAP, see Note 11—Segment Information in our unaudited Consolidated and Condensed Financial Statements.

Separation and Merger Costs

Separation and merger costs wereare costs that we incurred to give effect toin connection with our separation from Computer Sciences GS’s separation from CSCCorporation (now known as DXC Technology) (“CSC”) and our subsequent merger with SRA. These costs are primarily comprised of severance and other personnel costs, third-party accounting, legal, and other consulting services, as well as information technology infrastructure and application costs. For the three and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017 and July 1, 2016, separation and merger costs were $8$5 million in both periods.
Net Benefit of Defined Benefit Plans
Our defined benefit plans (the “Plans”) relate to certain legacy operations that we absorbed in the separation from CSC and $13 million, respectively. Pursuantare frozen for all participants. Thus, the net benefits of the Plans for the first quarters of fiscal years 2018 and 2017 primarily represent the amount that the expected return on plan assets exceeded the interest cost of our benefit obligation. The decrease in net benefits of the Plans was primarily due to a lower expected long-term rate of return on plan assets combined with a lower base of net pension assets in the Merger Agreement, all merger costs incurred by Computer Sciences GS Business were paid by CSRA.Plans, which resulted from settlements with certain participants in the third quarter of fiscal year 2017. For additional information about our estimates of the expected return on plan assets and discount rates associated with our Plans, see Note 16—Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans in our Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements within our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017.

The higher ETR for the three and six months ended October 2, 2015, respectively. The lower ETRs forJune 30, 2017 is primarily a result of a reduction in the three and six months ended September 30, 2016 compared to the three and six months ended October 2, 2015 were due to the additionamount of beneficial stock compensation deductions and the absence of adjustmentstax deductible dividend equivalent payments related to the carve-out approach used for tax purposes prior to the Spin-Off in the 2016 periods.RSU awards.

This compares to the inclusion of SRA into our receivable sales activities, including the sale of unbilled SRA receivables. Our operating cash flow for the secondfirst quarter of fiscal year 2017 also reflects a $25 million payment to satisfywhen our commitment to fund CSC’s CSR pension settlement obligation.

operating cash flow was positively affected by: (a) decreases in our accounts receivable balance; (b) an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses; and (c) an increase in other long-term liabilities.
Investing Cash Flow

ThisJuly 1, 2016. The decline reflects higher purchases of property and equipment in the fiscal year 2018 period compared to the fiscal year 2017 period as well asis primarily due to a reduction in restricted cash associated with the Purchase Agreement and proceeds from fixed asset disposals during the salefirst quarter of Welkin in the fiscal year 2016 period.2018.

This change reflectsJuly 1, 2016. The use of cash in financing in fiscal year 2018 primarily reflects: (a) repurchase of our common stock, and (b) cash dividends to common stockholders, partially offset by (c) borrowings under our revolving credit facility (net of repayments). As discussed in “Debt Financing” below, we refinanced our debt facilities in both the absencethird quarter of amounts transferred to CSC and $148 million of debt repayments in the fiscal year 2017 period.and the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, which resulted in lower margins over base index interest rates on our outstanding debt. Interest expense in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 was unchanged from the first quarter of fiscal year 2017.
Discussion of Financial Condition
Cash and Cash equivalents were $68$194 million and $130$126 million at SeptemberJune 30, 20162017 and April 1, 2016,March 31, 2017, respectively.
After the Spin-Off, CSRA became the primary seller of certainmaintains an accounts receivable sales facility under a Master Accounts Receivableour Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) that was first entered into on April 21, 2015 with The Royal Bank of Scotland, PLC (“RBS”)Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd., as Purchaser, along with Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group Ltd, andThe Bank of Nova Scotia, and Mizuho Bank, Ltd., each as a Participant,Purchaser, for the continuous non-recourse sale of ourCSRA’s eligible trade receivables. In June 2016, SRA was added toUnder the Purchase Agreement, as an additional seller of accounts receivables. In connection with the addition of the SRA receivables into the facility, the Company evaluated allowances associated with SRA’s government audit activities, receivable aging and specific collectability issues and increased the associated allowance by approximately $3 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017.

Under the Facility, CSRA can sell our eligible receivables, including billed receivables and certain unbilled receivables arising from “cost plus fixed fee” and “time and materials” contracts up to $450 million outstanding at any one time. CSRA has no retained interests in the transferred receivables, and only performperforms collection and administrative functions for the Purchaser for a servicing fee.

On August 8, 2017, we extended the term of this facility for one year.
During the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017 and July 1, 2016, the sellerswe sold $1.49 billion$711 million and $696 million, respectively, of our billed and unbilled receivables for cash. Collections by the purchaser on the receivables we sold were $1.40 billion$715 million and $579 million, for the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016.2017 and July 1, 2016, respectively. As of September

June 30, 2016,2017, there was also $30.0$18.8 million of cash collected but not remitted due to timing of settlements, which was recorded as restricted cash. Total receivables sold, net of collections and fees related to accounts receivable sales, resulted in an (decrease) increase in operating cash flow of $90$(5) million and $116 million for the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016.

Upon consummation of the Mergers, SRA initially maintained a separate accounts receivable purchase agreement under which SRA sold certain accounts receivable to a third party, or the Factor, without recourse to SRA. There were no sales of receivables under this facility during the six months ended September 30,2017, and July 1, 2016, and the agreement with the Factor was terminated in June 2016.

respectively.
Liquidity

As of SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, CSRA’s total liquidity was $768$839 million, consisting of $68$194 million of cash and cash equivalents and $700$645 million available under CSRA’s revolving credit facility. In SeptemberNovember 2016, the Company was required to make a one-time paymentwe completed an amendment of $25 million in connection with its obligation to fund the termination of a pension plan covering employees of a company formed as a joint venture between CSC and another government contractor. In October 2016, the Company began discussions with the administrative agents of its Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facilities to amendour debt facilities which extended the terms including an extension of the maturity dates.facilities by one year, reduced our interest rate on related borrowings, and changed certain terms in order to provide greater financial flexibility to the Company. We expectfurther amended our debt facility in June 2017 to complete this amendment duringreduce our interest rate on certain borrowings, and reallocated unpaid principal balances among portions of, the third quarter of fiscal year 2017.facility. See Note 15—Commitments and Contingencies and Note 16—Subsequent Events6—Debt to our unaudited Consolidated and Condensed Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q for further information. In the opinion of management, CSRA will be able to meet its liquidity and cash needs for at least the next twelve months through the combination of cash flows from operating activities, available cash balances, and available borrowings under CSRA’s revolving credit facility. If these resources need to be augmented, additional cash requirements would likely be financed by the issuance of debt or equity securities. However, there can be no assurances that CSRA will be able to obtain debt financing on acceptable terms in the future.

Our exposure to operational liquidity is primarily from long-term contracts, some of which require significant investment of cash flows from operating activities during the initial phases of the contracts. The recovery of these investments is over the life of the contract and is dependent upon our performance as well as customer acceptance. Continued uncertainty in global economic conditions may also affect our business as customers and suppliers may decide to downsize, defer or cancel contracts, which could negatively affect operating cash flows.

Our primary cash needs continue to be for working capital, capital expenditures, commitments, and other discretionary investments. In May 2017, we executed an agreement to acquire NES for approximately $105 million in cash, subject to closing adjustments. We drew $55 million from our revolving credit facility on June 30, 2017 and paid $105 million in July 2017 at the closing of this transaction. Our ability to fund our operating needs depends, in part, on our ability to continue to generate positive cash flow from operations or, if necessary, raise cash in the capital markets. Longer term, ourOur pension funding obligation represents another potential cash need, depending on asset returns, interest rates and other factors.

In the opinion of management, CSRA will be able to meet its liquidity and cash needs for at least the next twelve months through the combination of cash flows from operating activities, available cash balances, and available borrowings under CSRA’s revolving credit facility. If these resources need to be augmented, additional cash requirements would likely be financed by the issuance of debt or equity securities. However, there can be no assurances that CSRA will be able to obtain such financing on acceptable terms (or at all) in the future.
Capitalization
At SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, CSRA’s ratio of net debt-to-total capitalization was 90.9%81.5%, a decrease of 1.83.1 percentage points from the end of fiscal year 2016.2017. The decrease in the ratio was primarily the result of debt principal repayments of $10.8 million and an increase in the amount of $148 millionequity capital from net income recognized during the first halfthree months of fiscal year 2017.2018. We believe our capital structure and financial strength provide us with financial flexibility in a dynamic industry that we believe affords competitive and strategic advantages to providers that maintain financial flexibility.

Debt Financing

Including capitalized lease liabilities, CSRA had $126$129 million of current maturities of long-term debt and $2,663 million$2.74 billion of long-term debt at SeptemberJune 30, 2016.2017. In March 2016, we executed a series of hedging transactions to manage the interest rate risk related to $1.4 billion of the Senior Secured Term Loan A facilities. CSRA’s objectives in using cash flow hedges are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements (see Note 3—Derivative Instruments to our unaudited Consolidated and Condensed Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q).

We obtained financing in connection withIn June 2017, we completed an amendment of our debt facilities to reduce our interest rate on, and reallocate unpaid principal balances among portions of, the Spin-Off and the Mergers under various facilities.facility. See Note 9—6—Debt to our unaudited Consolidated and Condensed Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q and “Liquidity” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for information about these facilities, as amended, including covenants, default provisions, repayment terms, and interest rates of each facility.

Our term loan facilities require us to prepay outstanding term loans, subject to certain exceptions, in the case of excess annual cash flow and in the event of certain asset sales, casualty events and issuances of debt. Any required excess cash flow payments are due within 90 days following the end of the fiscal year. During the first quarter of fiscal 2017, we paid $48 million related to FY16fiscal year 2016 excess cash flow.

In March 2016, we executed a series During the first quarter of hedging transactionsfiscal year 2018, the Company determined it did not have to manage the interest rate riskmake an additional repayment related to $1.4 billionits excess cash flow for fiscal year 2017 because CSRA’s voluntary repayments during the fiscal year exceeded the amount it would otherwise be required to repay. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, we paid $10.8 million on our Term Loan Facility (excluding the Senior Securedpayment of $180.6 million of the Term Loan A facilities.

requirements. Our expected liquidity and capital structure may be impacted, however, by discretionary investments and acquisitions that CSRA could decide towe may pursue. While the timing and financial magnitude of these possible actions are currently indeterminable, CSRA expectswe expect to be able to manage and adjust itsour capital structure in the future to meet itsour liquidity needs.

The amount of indebtedness incurred in connection with the Spin-Off and the Mergers was based on various factors including expected operating results, expected free cash flow generation, credit ratings considerations, ensuring strategic and financial flexibility, anticipated business plans, and general economic conditions. We believe our capital structure and financial strength provide us with financial flexibility in a dynamic industry that we believe affords competitive and strategic advantages to providers that maintain financial flexibility.

Equity Transactions

On November 30, 2015, CSRA’s Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing up to $400 million in share repurchases of CSRA's outstanding common stock. The timing, volume, and nature of future share repurchases are at the discretion of management and the Audit Committee, and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. CSRA plans to offset equity grants through share repurchases over time, balancing them with debt reduction and other forms of cash deployment.

In September 2016,During the first quarter of fiscal 2018, CSRA repurchased 300,097450,000 shares of common stock through open market purchases for an aggregate consideration of $7.9$14.3 million, at an average price of $26.45$31.71 per share. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, CSRA remained authorized to repurchase $342$306.7 million of common stock pursuant to the Share Repurchase Program with an expiration date of March 31, 2019. We paid $1.6 million in July 2017 for 50,000 additional shares of CSRA common stock, at an average price of $31.77 per share, that had been repurchased in June 2017 but had not settled in cash by June 30.
On May 25, 2016, CSRA announced that its Board of Directors hadhas declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.10 per share. The total qualifying shares were 163,427,525 shares, with a total dividend payoutshare every quarter since the third quarter of $16.3 million.

Payment of the dividend was made on July 11, 2016 to CSRA stockholders of record at the close of business on June 14, 2016.
On August 10, 2016, CSRA announced that its Board of Directors had declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.10 per share.  The total qualifying shares were 163,796,116 shares, with a total dividend payout of $16.4 million. Payment of the dividend was made on October 4, 2016 to CSRA stockholders of record at the close of business on August 31, 2016.
fiscal year 2017. In the opinion of management, CSRA has sufficient liquidity and expects to continue paying quarterly cash dividends, although such payments are subject to continued approval by CSRA’sour Board of Directors.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
In May 2017, we executed an agreement for the acquisition of NES Associates, LLC (“NES”) for approximately $105 million in cash, subject to closing adjustments. The transaction closed in July 2017. As a result, NES became an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of CSRA at the beginning of the second quarter of fiscal year 2018.
As of SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, we did not have any other significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in our financial condition, revenues, or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.
Contractual Obligations
CSRA has contractual obligations for long-term debt, capital lease liabilities and other obligations, including our performance guarantees and expiration of the stand-by letters of credit. See Note 9—6—Debt and Note 15—13—Commitments and Contingencies to our unaudited Consolidated and Condensed Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q for further information about these obligations.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Recent accounting pronouncements and the anticipated impact to CSRA are described in Note 1—1—Description of the Business, Basis of Presentation and Recent Accounting Pronouncements to our unaudited Consolidated and Condensed Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q.
Our unaudited Consolidated and Condensed Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of unaudited Consolidated and Condensed Financial Statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Many of the estimates made are for contract-specific issues. Changes to estimates or assumptions on a specific contract could result in a material adjustment to the unaudited Consolidated and Condensed Financial Statements. See “Critical Accounting Policies” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional


35

information about these estimates. For all of these estimates, we caution that future events rarely develop exactly as forecast, and the best estimates routinely require adjustment.
Revenue recognition
Substantially all of our revenue is derived from contracts with departments and agencies of the U.S. federal government, as well as other state and local government agencies. We generate our revenue from the following types of contractual arrangements: time and materials contracts, firm-fixed-price contracts, and cost-plus-fee contracts, which comprised approximately 21%, 44%45%, and 36%34%, respectively, of our revenue in the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016. We also provided services2017, compared to other businesses21%, 42%, and 37%, respectively, of CSC, which are included as related-party revenues forour revenue in the second quarter and first half of fiscal yearthree months ended July 1, 2016. In the second quarter of fiscal year 2017, these services are included in revenues.
Many of our contracts require the use of estimates-at-completion (“EAC”) in the application of the percentage-of-completion accounting method. Contracts that require estimates at completion using the percentage-of-completion method accounted for approximately 35% and 37% of our revenues for the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016.


47

2017 and July 1, 2016, respectively. When changes in estimates of contract sales or costs occur, we make revisions to EACs and reflect changes in the results of operations as a change in accounting estimate in the period in which the facts that give rise to the revision become known by management. See Note 1—1—Description of the Business, Basis of Presentation and Recent Accounting Pronouncements to our unaudited Consolidated and Condensed Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q for additional information.
Our U.S. federal government contracts generally contain FAR provisions that enable the customer to terminate a contract for default or for the convenience of the government. At SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, we did not have any federal contract terminations in process that would have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Assumptions related to purchase accounting and goodwill
When we acquire a controlling financial interest through a business combination, we use the acquisition method of accounting to allocate the purchase consideration to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, which are recorded at fair value. Any excess of purchase consideration over the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recognized as goodwill.
Acquisition-related costs are recognized separately from the business combination and are expensed as incurred. The results of operations of acquired businesses are included in our financial statements from the acquisition date. See Note 7—4—Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets to our unaudited Consolidated and Condensed Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q for further information.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and market prices such as interest rates or foreign currency exchange rates. We actively monitor these exposures and manage such risks through our regular operating and financing activities or the use of derivative financial instruments.
Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our outstanding debt and cash equivalents, which consist primarily of funds invested in U.S. government insured money-market accounts and prime money-market funds.equivalents. As of SeptemberJune 30, 20162017 and April 1, 2016,March 31, 2017, we had $68$194 million and $130$126 million, respectively, in cash and cash equivalents. The interest expense associated with our term loans and any loans under our revolving credit facility will vary with market rates.
Our exposure to financial risk from changes in interest rates related to our outstanding debt will impact our senior secured loan facilities. Pursuant to our interest rate risk management strategies, we use interest rate cash flow hedges to add stability to our incurrence of interest expense and to manage itsour exposure to related to interest rate movements (See Note 6 - 3—Derivative Instruments to our unaudited Consolidated and Condensed Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q for further discussion). ANet of the benefit from our interest-rate derivatives, a hypothetical 1% increase in interest rates would have increased the interest expense incurred under our senior secured loan facilities by approximately $12$15.4 million asfor the first quarter of September 30, 2016,fiscal year 2018, and likewise decreased our net income and cash flows.
The return on our cash and cash equivalents balance as of SeptemberJune 30, 20162017 and April 1, 2016 was less than 1%; thus, although investment interest rates may continue to decline in the future, the corresponding impact to our interest income, and likewise to our income and cash flow, would not be material.
Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar (“USD”); however, our foreign business operations, which predominantly provide business processing support services to our U.S. federal government customers, incur expenses denominated in foreign, local currencies. The expenses associated with providing our business processing services are invoiced either in USD


36

based upon the current USD to local currency exchange rates, or in the foreign, local currency. Such expenses expose us to exchange rate fluctuations between USD and the local currency. Historically, we mitigated the volatility relating to these exposures, in part, through the identification of potential foreign currency exposures through the contract bidding and forecasting process that would expand or modify our services. We have also been able to mitigate a portion of foreign currency risk through earnings by matching revenue earned in the same local currency as the expense incurred. In the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, we also began to hedge certain of these exposures using forward currency contracts. However, as fluctuations (including possible devaluations) in currency exchange rates may occur or there may be the


48

imposition of limitations on the conversion of foreign currencies into our reporting currency, wcurrency. We estimate that ae may enter into forward contracts to manage exchange rate volatility. A 1% increase in exchange rates would have increased our cost of services denominated in foreign currencies by $0.5$0.2 million in the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016.2017.
We have not entered into any hedging transactions for speculative or trading purposes.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

CSRA’s management, with the participation of CSRA’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of CSRA’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of SeptemberJune 30, 2016.2017. Based on that evaluation, CSRA’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2017, CSRA’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports that CSRA files or submit under the Exchange Act isis: (i) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms,forms; and (ii) accumulated and communicated to management to allow their timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Prior to the Spin-Off, we relied on certain financial information and resources of Parent to manage certain aspects of our business and report our results, including investor relations and corporate communications, accounting, tax, legal, human resources and benefit plan administration and reporting, general management, real estate, treasury, including insurance and risk management, and oversight functions such as Board of Directors and internal audit, including compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

We have evaluated the changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20162017 and concluded that there have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The information required by this Item is set forth in Note 15 -13, Commitments and Contingencies, to ourthe unaudited Consolidated and Condensed Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q, and under the captionCaption “Contingencies,” contained in Part I Item 1 of this Formform 10-Q. Such information is incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof.

Item 1A.Risk Factors

Except for the additional risk factor discussed below, weWe are not aware of any material changes to the risk factors discussed in Part 1, Item 1A of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 1, 2016.

Sales of concentrated positions of our common stock into the market in the future could cause the market price of our common stock to decline, even if our business is performing well.

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market could occur at any time. These sales, or the perception in the market that the holders of a large number of shares of common stock intend to sell shares, could reduce the market price of our common stock. As of October 17, 2016, our directors, executive officers and our 3 largest stockholders beneficially own, collectively, approximately 27% of our outstanding common stock. If one or more of them were to sell a substantial portion of the shares they hold, it could cause our stock price to decline. The sales also could make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities at a time and price that we deem appropriate.March 31, 2017.

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

On November 30, 2015, the Board authorized the Share Repurchase Program, pursuant to which CSRA, from time to time, purchases shares of its common stock for an aggregate purchase price not to exceed $400 million. The share repurchases may be executed through various means, including, without limitation, open market transactions, and privately negotiated transactions or otherwise and are in compliance with SEC rules, market conditions and applicable federal and state legal requirements. The timing, volume, and nature of share repurchases are at the discretion of management and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. See Notes 13Note 10—Stockholders’ Equity and 16Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) to our unaudited Consolidated and Condensed Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q for further information about the Share Repurchase Program.
