Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation Leidos Holdings, Inc. ("Leidos") is a holding company whose direct 100% -owned subsidiary is Leidos, Inc., an applied technology company focused on delivering services and solutions that leverage expertise in the national security, health, and infrastructure markets. Leidos, Inc. provides these services and solutions to government and commercial customers, both domestically and internationally. These customers include agencies of the U.S. Department of Defense ("DoD"), the intelligence community, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security ("DHS") and other U.S. Government civil agencies, state and local government agencies and foreign governments. Unless indicated otherwise, references to the "Company," "we," "us" and "our" refer collectively to Leidos Holdings, Inc., Leidos, Inc., and its consolidated subsidiaries. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Leidos and Leidos, Inc. include the accounts of its majority-owned and 100% -owned subsidiaries. Leidos does not have separate operations, assets or liabilities independent of Leidos, Inc., except for a note with Leidos, Inc. (the “related party note”), on which interest is recognized. From time to time, Leidos issues stock to employees of Leidos, Inc. and its subsidiaries, which is reflected in stockholders' equity in Leidos’ condensed consolidated balance sheets and results in an increase to the related party note. All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying unaudited condensed financial information has been prepared in accordance with the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). Certain disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingencies at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management evaluates these estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis, including those relating to allowances for doubtful accounts, inventories, fair value and impairment of intangible assets and goodwill, income taxes, estimated profitability of long-term contracts, pension benefits, stock-based compensation expense, contingencies and litigation. Estimates have been prepared by management on the basis of the most current and best available information; however, actual results could differ materially from those estimates. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which consist of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation thereof. The results reported in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and combined notes thereto included in the Company’s Transition Report on Form 10-K filed on February 26, 2016. Fair Value Measurements The accounting standard for fair value measurements establishes a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets (Level 1); inputs other than the quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly (Level 2); and unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which requires the Company to develop its own assumptions (Level 3). The fair value of financial instruments is determined based on quoted market prices, if available, or management’s best estimate. It is management’s belief that the carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, other than derivatives, which include cash equivalents and long-term investments, are reasonable estimates of their related fair values. The carrying value of accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their fair values. The carrying value of the Company's notes receivable as of April 1, 2016 of $95 million approximate fair value as the stated interest rates within the agreements are consistent with the current market rates used in notes with similar terms in the market (Level 2 inputs). The fair value of long-term debt is determined based on current interest rates available for debt with terms and maturities similar to the Company’s existing debt arrangements (Level 2 inputs). As of April 1, 2016, the fair value of notes payable and long-term debt was $1.07 billion with the carrying value reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at cost of $1.09 billion . The Company’s cash equivalents were primarily comprised of investments in several large institutional money market funds and bank deposits, with original maturity of three months or less. There are immaterial restrictions on the withdrawal of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents of foreign currency due to exchange control regulations. The Company's cash equivalents are recorded at historical cost, which equals fair value based on quoted market prices (Level 1 input). The Company's financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 2 inputs consisted of the Company's interest rate swaps on its $450 million fixed rate 4.45% notes maturing in December 2020 (see "Note 4–Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities"). At April 1, 2016, the Company did not have any financial assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 3 inputs. The Company’s non-financial instruments measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis include goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets and long-lived tangible assets. The valuation methods used to determine fair value require a significant degree of management judgment to determine the key assumptions. As such, the Company generally classifies non-financial instruments as either Level 2 or Level 3 fair value measurements. At April 1, 2016, the Company did not have any non-financial instruments measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. Changes in Estimates on Contracts Changes in estimates related to certain types of contracts accounted for using the percentage of completion method of accounting are recognized in the period in which such changes are made for the inception-to-date effect of the changes. Changes in these estimates can routinely occur over the contract performance period for a variety of reasons, including changes in contract scope, contract cost estimates and estimated incentive or award fees. Favorable contract performance resulted in a net increase to income from continuing operations of $8 million and an increase of $0.07 per diluted share for the quarter ended April 1, 2016, and a net increase to income from continuing operations of $4 million and an increase of $0.04 per diluted share for the quarter ended April 3, 2015. Supplementary Cash Flow Information Supplementary cash flow information, including non-cash investing and financing activities, for the periods presented was as follows: Three Months Ended April 1, April 3, (in millions) Accrued dividends declared $ — $ 25 Cash paid for interest $ 13 $ — Cash paid for income taxes, net of refunds (including discontinued operations) $ 17 $ 60 Accounting Standards Updates Adopted In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs . This update eliminates separate presentation for debt issuance costs as an asset and requires issuance costs to be reported in the balance sheet as a direct reduction to the face amount of the associated debt. The Company adopted this ASU, which is to be applied retrospectively, during the quarter ended April 1, 2016. This resulted in a reclassification of deferred financing costs related to the Company's notes of $7 million from "Other assets" to "Notes payable and long-term debt, net of current portion" in the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets as of January 1, 2016. The Company adopted various other accounting standards updates that were issued in the first quarter of 2016, none of which had a material effect on the Company's condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Accounting Standards Updates Issued But Not Yet Adopted In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) . This ASU affects any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of non-financial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards (i.e. insurance contracts). This ASU will supersede all revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and industry-specific guidance throughout the industry topics of the codification. The guidance's core principle is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In applying the revenue principles, an entity will identify the contract(s) with a customer, identify the performance obligations, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations and recognize revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied (either over time or at a point in time). The ASU further states that an entity should disclose sufficient information to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date , which approved a one-year deferral of the effective date of the ASU from the original effective date of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 to annual reporting periods (including interim reporting periods) beginning after December 15, 2017, with an option for early adoption of the standard on the original effective date. Additionally, in March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net) , which clarified the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. The Company is still evaluating the provisions of ASU 2014-09 and its impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) . This ASU will supersede the current lease guidance under ASC 840 and makes several changes, such as requiring an entity to recognize a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease obligation in the balance sheet, classified as financing or operating, as appropriate. The standard requires adoption under the modified retrospective approach, and is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is still evaluating the provisions of ASU 2016-02 and its impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09 Stock Compensation (Topic 718). This ASU makes several changes to the tax impact and financial statement presentation related to stock based compensation. Additionally, the ASU provides a practical expedient to allow a Company to recognize forfeitures as they occur in lieu of applying an estimated forfeiture rate to the population. The ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is still evaluating the provisions of ASU 2016-09 and its impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Various other accounting standards updates were issued but are not effective for the Company until periods subsequent to April 1, 2016. The Company is still evaluating the guidance or does not expect these updates to have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. |
