NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

Our Business

Vectrus, Inc. is a leading provider of services to the United States (U.S.) government worldwide. We operate as one segment and offer facility and logistics services and information technology and network communications services.

Vectrus was incorporated in the State of Indiana on February 4, 2014. On September 27, 2014, Exelis Inc. (Exelis) completed a spin-off (the Spin-off) of Vectrus, and Vectrus became an independent, publicly traded company. Unless the context otherwise requires, references in these notes to "Vectrus", "we," "us," "our," "the Company" and "our Company" refer to Vectrus, Inc. References in these notes to Exelis or "Former Parent" refer to Exelis Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (other than Vectrus).

Basis of Presentation

Our quarterly financial periods end on the Friday closest to the last day of the calendar quarter (June 28, 2019 for the second quarter of 2019 and June 29, 2018 for the second quarter of 2018), except for the last quarter of the fiscal year, which ends on December 31. For ease of presentation, the quarterly financial statements included herein are described as three months ended.

The unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Vectrus have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (GAAP) have been omitted. These unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with our audited Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

It is management’s opinion that these financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and operating results. Net sales and net earnings for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of future or annual results.

Leases

Beginning with our January 1, 2019 adoption of the new lease accounting standard, operating leases are included on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, other accrued liabilities and other non-current liabilities.

ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit interest rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate as of January 1, 2019 was applied to operating leases in effect as of that date. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any prepaid lease payments and excludes lease incentives. Many of our leases include one or more options to renew or terminate the lease, solely at our discretion. Such options are factored into the lease term when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise the option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

As allowed under ASC Topic 842, we elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance which allowed us to carry forward the historical lease classification, assessment of whether a contract was or contained a lease and assessment of initial direct costs. In addition, we have made policy elections to apply the short-term leases practical expedient, whereby leases with a term of 12 months or less are not capitalized and recorded on our balance sheet, and the practical expedient to not separate lease components from non-lease components. The latter expedient is applied to all of our leases. We did not elect to apply the hindsight practical expedient in determining lease terms and assessing impairment of ROU assets. See Note 2, "Recent Accounting Pronouncements" and Note 10, "Leases" for further information.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the presentation of amounts in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 29, 2018 to conform to the current year presentation. Specifically, depreciation and amortization, which were combined and disclosed as one amount are now presented separately.

NOTE 2

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Effective

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2018-15 to provide guidance on accounting for implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement (CCA) hosted by the vendor - that is a service contract. Under the new guidance, a customer will apply the same criteria for capitalizing implementation costs of a CCA as it would for an on-premises internal-use software license. Presentation of such costs, however, will vary from those required for licensed internal-use software. ASU 2018-15 is effective January 1, 2020 and can be adopted prospectively or retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The standard is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2016-13 was issued in June 2016 with the intent of providing financial statement users with more useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. Current treatment uses the incurred loss methodology for recognizing credit losses that delays the recognition until it is probable a loss has been incurred. The accounting update adds a new impairment model, known as the current expected credit loss model, which is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. Under the new guidance, an entity will recognize as an allowance its estimate of expected credit losses, which the FASB believes will result in more timely recognition of such losses. The standard is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

For a discussion of other accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB but are not yet effective, refer to the Accounting Standards Updates section in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. These standards are not expected to have a material impact on our results of operations or cash flows.

Accounting Standards That Were Adopted

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, which allows a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (Tax Act). We adopted the provisions of ASU 2018-02 during the first quarter of 2019 and recorded a $0.3 million decrease to accumulated other comprehensive income and a corresponding increase to beginning retained earnings to reflect the changes in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate as a result of the Tax Act. As a result of the adoption of ASU 2018-02, our policy to release income tax effects in accumulated other comprehensive income is consistent with the underlying book method.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, with amendments issued in 2018. The objective of ASU 2016-02 is to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP. The standard requires lessees to recognize most leases on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets but does not change the manner in which expenses are recorded in the income statement. We adopted the standard during the first quarter of 2019 using the cumulative-effect adjustment transition method, which applies the provisions of the standard at the effective date without adjusting comparative periods presented.

See Note 1, "Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" and Note 10,"Leases" for further information.

No other accounting standards newly issued or adopted as of January 1, 2019, had a material impact on our financial statements or disclosures.

NOTE 3

REVENUE

Performance Obligations

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is the unit of account in ASC Topic 606. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. To determine the proper revenue recognition method, consideration is given as to whether a single contract should be accounted for as more than one performance obligation. For most of our contracts, the customer contracts with us to perform an integrated set of tasks and deliverables as

Table of Contents

a single service solution, whereby each service is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. As a result, when this integrated set of tasks exists, the contract is accounted for as one performance obligation. The vast majority of our contracts have a single performance obligation. Unexercised contract options and indefinite delivery and indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contracts are considered to be separate contracts when the option or IDIQ task order is exercised or awarded.

Contract modifications are routine in the performance of our contracts. Contracts are often modified to account for changes in contract specifications or requirements. In most instances, contract modifications are for goods or services that are not distinct, and therefore, are accounted for as part of the existing contract.

Our performance obligations are satisfied over time as services are provided throughout the contract term. We recognize revenue over time using the input method (e.g., costs incurred to date relative to total estimated costs at completion) to measure progress. Our over time recognition is reinforced by the fact that our customers simultaneously receive and consume the benefits of our services as they are performed. This continuous transfer of control requires that we track progress towards completion of performance obligations in order to measure and recognize revenue. Determining progress on performance obligations requires us to make judgments that affect the timing of revenue recognition. Remaining performance obligations represent firm orders by the customer and exclude potential orders under IDIQ contracts, unexercised contract options and contracts awarded to us that are being protested by competitors with the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) or in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims. The level of order activity related to programs can be affected by the timing of government funding authorizations and their project evaluation cycles. Year-over-year comparisons could, at times, be impacted by these factors, among others.

Our contracts are multi-year contracts and typically include an initial period of one year or less with annual one-year (or less) option periods. The number of option periods varies by contract, and there is no guarantee that an option period will be exercised. The right to exercise an option period is at the sole discretion of the U.S. government when we are the prime contractor or of the prime contractor when we are a subcontractor. We expect to recognize a substantial portion of our performance obligations as revenue within the next 12 months. However, the U.S. government or the prime contractor may cancel any contract at any time through a termination for convenience or for cause. Most of our contracts have terms that would permit us to recover all or a portion of our incurred costs and fees for work performed in the event of a termination for convenience.

Remaining performance obligations increased by $302.3 million as of June 28, 2019 as compared to December 31, 2018. We expect to recognize approximately 47% of the remaining performance obligations as of June 28, 2019 as revenue in 2019, and the remaining 53% during 2020. Remaining performance obligations as of June 28, 2019 and December 31, 2018 are presented in the following table:



	June 28,		December 31,
(In millions)	2019		2018
Performance Obligations	$	1,160	$	858

Contract Estimates

Accounting for contracts and programs involves the use of various techniques to estimate total contract revenue and costs. For contracts, we estimate the profit on a contract as the difference between the total estimated revenue and expected costs to complete a contract and recognize that profit over the life of the contract.

Contract estimates are based on various assumptions to project the outcome of future events. These assumptions include labor productivity and availability; the complexity of the services being performed; the cost and availability of materials; the performance of subcontractors; and the availability and timing of funding from the customer.

The impact of adjustments in contract estimates on our operating income can be reflected in either revenue or cost of revenue. Cumulative adjustments for the three and six months ended June 28, 2019 and June 29, 2018 are presented in the following table:



	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	June 28,			June 29,			June 28,			June 29,
(In thousands)	2019			2018			2019			2018
Favorable adjustments	$	2,660		$	6,282		$	5,162		$	10,435
Unfavorable adjustments	(783		)	(2,573		)	(4,368		)	(3,884		)
Net favorable adjustments	$	1,877		$	3,709		$	794		$	6,551

Table of Contents

For the three and six months ended June 28, 2019, the net favorable adjustments to operating income increased revenue by $0.6 million and $0.2 million, respectively, and for the three and six months ended June 29, 2018, the net favorable adjustments to operating income increased revenue by $3.3 million and $6.6 million, respectively.

Revenue by Category

Generally, the sales price elements for our contracts are cost-plus, cost-reimbursable or firm-fixed-price. We commonly have elements of cost-plus, cost-reimbursable and firm-fixed-price contracts on a single contract. On a cost-plus type contract, we are paid our allowable incurred costs plus a profit, which can be fixed or variable depending on the contract’s fee arrangement, up to funding levels predetermined by our customers. On cost-plus type contracts, we do not bear the risks of unexpected cost overruns, provided that we do not incur costs that exceed the predetermined funded amounts. Most of our cost-plus contracts also contain a firm-fixed-price element. Cost-plus type contracts with award and incentive fee provisions are our primary variable contract fee arrangement. Award fees provide for a fee based on actual performance relative to contractually specified performance criteria. Incentive fees provide for a fee based on the relationship between total allowable and target cost. On most of our contracts, a cost-reimbursable element captures consumable materials required for the program. Typically, these costs do not bear fees.

On a firm-fixed-price type contract, we agree to perform the contractual statement of work for a predetermined contract price. A firm-fixed-price type contract typically offers higher profit margin potential than a cost-plus type contract, which is commensurate with the greater levels of risk we assume on a firm-fixed-price type contract. Although a firm-fixed-price type contract generally permits us to retain profits if the total actual contract costs are less than the estimated contract costs, we bear the risk that increased or unexpected costs may reduce our profit or cause us to sustain losses on the contract. Although the overall scope of work required under the contract may not change, profit may be adjusted as experience is gained and as efficiencies are realized or costs are incurred.

Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed and unbilled accounts receivable (contract assets) and customer advances and deposits (contract liabilities) on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Amounts are billed as work progresses in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms at periodic intervals (e.g., biweekly or monthly). Generally, billing occurs subsequent to revenue recognition, resulting in contract assets. However, we may receive advances or deposits from our customers, before revenue is recognized, resulting in contract liabilities. These advance billings and payments are not considered significant financing components because they are frequently intended to ensure that both parties are in conformance with the primary contract terms. These assets and liabilities are reported on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period.

As of June 28, 2019, we had contract assets of $190.8 million. Refer to Note 7, "Receivables" for additional information regarding the composition of our receivables balances. As of June 28, 2019, our contract liabilities were insignificant.

NOTE 4

SENTEL ACQUISITION

On January 23, 2018, we acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of SENTEL Corporation (SENTEL). In accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, we accounted for this transaction using the acquisition method. We conducted valuations of certain acquired assets and liabilities for inclusion in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of the date of acquisition. Assets that normally would not be recorded in ordinary operations (i.e., intangibles related to contractual relationships) were recorded at their estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill.

The total net consideration paid for the acquisition was $36.9 million, consisting of the purchase price of $36.0 million and $0.9 million in excess of the working capital requirement agreed upon in the stock purchase agreement entered into among our wholly-owned subsidiary Vectrus Systems Corporation (VSC), SENTEL, R&R Enterprises, Inc. and Russell T. Wright. The acquisition was funded by utilizing cash on hand and available capacity from our Amended Revolver (as defined in Note 8, "Debt").

A breakdown of the purchase price allocation, net of cash acquired, is as follows:



(In thousands)	Allocation of Purchase Price
Receivables	$	23,339
Property, plant and equipment	810
Goodwill	16,689
Intangible assets	10,500
Other current assets	975
Accounts payable	(10,012		)
Other current liabilities	(5,446		)
Purchase price, net of cash acquired	$	36,855

With the acquisition of SENTEL, we recognized two intangible assets related to customer contracts, the backlog and the contract re-competes arising from the acquisition. The fair value of the backlog was $6.5 million, and the fair value of the contract re-competes was $4.0 million with an amortization period of 4.0 years and 8.0 years, respectively.

Table of Contents

Additionally, we recognized goodwill of $16.7 million arising from the acquisition, which relates primarily to growth opportunities based on a broader service offering in the converging physical and digital infrastructure market, and enhancing our information technology, technical solutions and logistics capabilities, while expanding our client base to customers in the U.S. intelligence community. The goodwill recognized for the SENTEL acquisition is fully deductible for income tax purposes.

SENTEL’s operating results have been included in our reported results since the date of acquisition.

NOTE 5

INCOME TAXES

Effective Tax Rate

Our quarterly income tax expense is measured using an estimated annual effective income tax rate. The comparison of effective income tax rates between periods may be significantly affected by discrete items recognized during the periods, the level and mix of earnings by tax jurisdiction and permanent differences.

For the three months ended June 28, 2019 and June 29, 2018, we recorded income tax provisions of $2.2 million and $2.7 million, respectively, representing effective income tax rates of 22.8% and 22.5%, respectively. For the six months ended June 28, 2019 and June 29, 2018, we recorded income tax provisions of $4.0 million and $4.1 million, respectively, representing effective income tax rates of 21.4% and 21.0%, respectively. The higher effective income tax rates for the 2019 periods are the result of one-time discretionary items. The effective income tax rates vary from the federal statutory rate of 21.0% due to state taxes, required tax income exclusions, nondeductible expenses and available deductions not reflected in book income.

Uncertain Tax Provisions

As of June 28, 2019 and December 31, 2018, unrecognized tax benefits from uncertain tax positions were $2.3 million and $1.8 million, respectively.

NOTE 6

EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share (EPS) is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects potential dilution that could occur if securities to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. Diluted EPS includes the dilutive effect of stock-based compensation outstanding after application of the treasury stock method.

RECEIVABLES

Receivables were comprised of the following:



	June 28,		December 31,
(In thousands)	2019		2018
Billed receivables	$	35,321	$	44,868
Unbilled receivables (contract assets)	190,802		181,009
Other	11,124		6,242
Total receivables	$	237,247	$	232,119

As of June 28, 2019 and December 31, 2018, all billed receivables are due from the U.S. government, either directly as prime contractor to the U.S. government or as subcontractor to another prime contractor to the U.S. government. Because our billed receivables are with the U.S. government, we do not believe they represent a material credit risk exposure.

Unbilled receivables are contract assets that represent revenue recognized on long-term contracts in excess of amounts billed as of the balance sheet date. We estimate that approximately $5.2 million of our unbilled receivables as of June 28, 2019 may not be collected within the next 12 months. These amounts relate to the timing of the U.S. government review of indirect rates and contract line item realignments with our customers. Changes in the balance of receivables are primarily due to the timing differences between our performance and customers' payments.

NOTE 8

DEBT

Senior Secured Credit Facilities

Term Loan and Revolver. In September 2014, we and our wholly-owned subsidiary, VSC, entered into a credit agreement with a group of lenders, including JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as administrative agent. The credit agreement was subsequently amended in November 2017 by the Amendment and Restatement Agreement (the Amendment Agreement) with a group of lenders, including JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent. The Amendment Agreement provides for $200.0 million in senior secured financing, consisting of a $80.0 million five-year term loan facility (the Amended Term Loan) and a $120.0 million five-year senior secured revolving credit facility (the Amended Revolver, and together with the Amended Term Loan, the Amended Credit Facilities).

The Amended Revolver is available for working capital, capital expenditures, and other general corporate purposes. Up to $25.0 million of the Amended Revolver is available for the issuance of letters of credit. There were no outstanding borrowings under the Amended Revolver at June 28, 2019. As of June 28, 2019, there were seven letters of credit outstanding in the aggregate amount of $8.1 million, which reduced our borrowing availability to $111.9 million under the Amended Revolver. The Amended Revolver will mature and the commitments thereunder will terminate on November 15, 2022.

The aggregate scheduled maturities of the Amended Term Loan are as follows:



(In thousands)	Payments due
2019 (excluding the six months ended June 28, 2019)	$	2,500
2020	6,500
2021	8,600
2022	55,400
Total	$	73,000

Table of Contents

We may voluntarily prepay the Amended Term Loan in whole or in part at any time without premium or penalty, subject to the payment of customary breakage costs under certain conditions. Amounts borrowed under the Amended Term Loan that are repaid or prepaid may not be re-borrowed.

The Amended Credit Facilities contain customary covenants, including covenants that, under certain circumstances and subject to certain qualifications and exceptions: limit or restrict our ability to incur additional indebtedness; merge, dissolve, liquidate or consolidate; make acquisitions, investments, advances or loans; dispose of or transfer assets; pay dividends; redeem or repurchase certain debt; and enter into certain restrictive agreements. As of June 28, 2019, the maximum amount of dividends we could pay was $19.3 million. For further discussion on dividends, please refer to "Liquidity and Capital Resources - Dividends" in Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

In addition, we are required to comply with (a) a maximum ratio of total consolidated indebtedness to consolidated earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) of 3.00 to 1.00 (3.25 to 1.00 for the 12 months following a qualified acquisition), and (b) a minimum ratio of consolidated EBITDA to consolidated interest expense (net of cash interest income) of 4.50 to 1.00. As of June 28, 2019, we had a ratio of total consolidated indebtedness to EBITDA of 1.17 to 1.00 and a ratio of consolidated EBITDA to consolidated interest expense of 10.84 to 1.00. We were in compliance with all covenants related to the Amended Credit Facilities as of June 28, 2019.

Interest Rates and Fees. Outstanding borrowings under the Amended Credit Facilities accrue interest, at our option, at a per annum rate of (i) LIBOR plus the applicable margin, which ranges from 1.75% to 2.50% depending on the leverage ratio, or (ii) a base rate plus the applicable margin, which ranges from 0.75% to 1.50% depending on the leverage ratio. The interest rate under the Amended Credit Facilities at June 28, 2019 was 4.41%.

Carrying Value and Fair Value. As of June 28, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the fair value of the Amended Credit Facilities approximated the carrying value because the debt bears interest at a floating rate of interest. The fair value is based on observable inputs of interest rates that are currently available to us for debt with similar terms and maturities for non-public debt.

NOTE 9

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

During the periods covered by this report, we have made no changes to our policies or strategies for the use of derivative instruments and there has been no change in our related accounting methods.

Interest Rate Derivative Instruments

Our interest rate swaps are designated and qualify as effective cash flow hedges. The contracts, with expiration dates through November 2022 and notional amounts totaling $54.9 million at June 28, 2019, are recorded at fair value.

The following table summarizes the amount at fair value and location of the derivative instruments used for our interest rate hedges in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 28, 2019:

The following table summarizes the amount at fair value and location of the derivative instruments used for our interest rate hedges in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2018:

We regularly assess the creditworthiness of the counterparty. As of June 28, 2019, the counterparty to the interest rate swaps had performed in accordance with its contractual obligations. Both the counterparty credit risk and our credit risk were considered in the fair value determination.

Foreign Currency Derivative Instruments

The following table summarizes the amount at fair value and location of the derivative instruments used for our forward contract hedges in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 28, 2019:

Table of Contents

At June 28, 2019, we had outstanding foreign currency forward contracts, for the exchange of U.S. dollars and Euros, with a notional amount of $7.9 million and expiration dates through December 2020.

Counterparty default risk is considered low because the forward contracts that we entered into are over-the-counter instruments transacted with highly-rated financial institutions. We were not required to, and did not, post collateral as of June 28, 2019.

The current estimated value of net losses for the above derivative instruments anticipated to be transferred from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings over the next 12 months is $0.5 million.

NOTE 10

Leases

We determine whether an arrangement contains a lease at inception. We have operating leases for office space, apartments, vehicles, and machinery and equipment. Our operating leases have lease terms of less than one year to ten years.

We do not separate lease components (e.g., fixed payments for rent) from non-lease components (e.g., common area maintenance) but account for the non-lease components and non-components (e.g., property taxes and insurance) in a contract as part of the single lease component to which they are related.

The components of lease expense are as follows:



	Three Months Ended		Six Months Ended
(In thousands)	June 28, 2019		June 28, 2019
Operating lease expense	$	3,647	$	7,063
Variable lease expense	225		398
Short-term lease expense	11,422		22,619
Total lease expense	$	15,294	$	30,080

Supplemental balance sheet information related to our operating leases is as follows:



(In thousands)	June 28, 2019
Right-of-use assets	$	17,987

Current lease liabilities (recorded in other accrued liabilities)	$	10,112
Long-term lease liabilities (recorded in other non-current liabilities)	8,658
Total operating lease liabilities	$	18,770

Initial ROU assets of $19.2 million were recognized as non-cash asset additions when the new lease accounting standard was adopted on January 1, 2019. Additional ROU assets of $5.2 million were recognized as non-cash asset additions that resulted from new operating lease liabilities during the first half of 2019.

The weighted average remaining lease term and discount rate for our operating leases at June 28, 2019 were 3.9 years and 6.0%, respectively.

NOTE 11

GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

As of both June 28, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the carrying amount of goodwill was $233.6 million. There was no related activity during the first six months of 2019.

As of June 28, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the carrying amount of intangible assets was approximately $13.9 million and $8.6 million, respectively. The increase during the first six months of 2019 was due to $6.5 million of new amortizable intangible assets purchased during the first quarter of 2019. This increase was offset by intangible amortization expense of approximately $0.7 million and $1.3 million for the three and six months ended June 28, 2019, respectively. Intangible amortization expense for the three and six months ended June 29, 2018 was $0.5 million and $0.9 million, respectively.

Amortizing intangible assets, which carry a remaining average life of approximately 6 years, are principally composed of customer contracts, related backlogs and re-competes.

NOTE 12

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

We maintain an equity incentive plan (the 2014 Omnibus Plan) to govern awards granted to Vectrus employees and directors, including nonqualified stock options (NQOs), restricted stock units (RSUs), total shareholder return (TSR) awards and other awards. We account for NQOs and stock-settled RSUs as equity-based compensation awards. TSR awards, described below, and cash-settled RSUs are accounted for as liability-based compensation awards.

Stock-based compensation expense and the associated tax benefits impacting our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income were as follows:



	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
(In thousands)	June 28, 2019		June 29, 2018		June 28, 2019		June 29, 2018
Compensation costs for equity-based awards	$	1,099	$	908	$	2,216	$	1,775
Compensation costs for liability-based awards	1,470		198		1,815		746
Total compensation costs, pre-tax	$	2,569	$	1,106	$	4,031	$	2,521
Future tax benefit	$	556	$	239	$	872	$	545

Liability-based awards are revalued at the end of each reporting period to reflect changes in fair value.

As of June 28, 2019, total unrecognized compensation costs related to equity-based awards and liability-based awards were $6.4 million and $4.1 million, respectively, which are expected to be recognized ratably over a weighted average period of 1.95 years and 2.15 years, respectively.

Table of Contents

The following table provides a summary of the activities for NQOs and RSUs for the six months ended June 28, 2019:



	NQOs			RSUs
(In thousands, except per share data)	Shares	Weighted Average Exercise Price Per Share		Shares	Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Per Share

Outstanding at June 28, 2019	85	$	23.00	306	$	29.73

During the six months ended June 28, 2019, we granted long term incentive awards to employees consisting of 170,361 RSUs with a weighted average grant date fair value per share of $28.06 and to our directors consisting of 25,246 RSUs with a weighted average grant date fair value per share of $38.42.

For employee RSUs, one-third of the award vests on each of the three anniversary dates following the grant date. Director RSUs are granted on the date of an annual meeting of shareholders and vest on the business day immediately prior to the next annual meeting. The fair value of each RSU grant was determined based on the closing price of Vectrus common stock on the date of grant. Stock compensation expense will be recognized ratably over the vesting period of the awards.

Total Shareholder Return Awards

TSR awards are performance-based cash awards that are subject to a three-year performance period. Any payments earned are made in cash following completion of the performance period according to the achievement of specified performance goals. During the six months ended June 28, 2019, we granted TSR awards with an aggregate target TSR value of $2.3 million. The fair value of TSR awards is measured quarterly and is based on the Company’s performance relative to the performance of the Aerospace and Defense Companies in the S&P 1500 Index. Depending on the Company’s performance during the three-year performance period, payments can range from 0% to 200% of the target value.

NOTE 13

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

General

From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings that are incidental to the operation of our business. Some of these proceedings seek remedies relating to employment matters, matters in connection with our contracts and matters arising under laws relating to the protection of the environment. Additionally, U.S. government customers periodically advise the Company of claims and penalties concerning certain potential disallowed costs. When such findings are presented, Vectrus and the U.S. government representatives engage in discussions to enable Vectrus to evaluate the merits of these claims as well as to assess the amounts being claimed. Where appropriate, provisions are made to reflect probable losses related to the matters raised by the U.S. government representatives. Such assessments, along with any assessments regarding provisions for legal proceedings, are reviewed on a quarterly basis for sufficiency based on the most recent information available to us. We have estimated and accrued $11.3 million and $7.8 million as of June 28, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, in "Other accrued liabilities" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for legal proceedings and for claims with respect to our government contracts as discussed below, including open years subject to audit. Although the ultimate outcome of any legal matter or claim cannot be predicted with certainty, based on present information, including our assessment of the merits of the particular claim, we do not expect that any asserted or unasserted legal or contractual claims or proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, including the lawsuit discussed below, will have a material adverse effect on our cash flow, results of operations or financial condition.

U.S. Government Contracts, Investigations and Claims

We have U.S. government contracts that are funded incrementally on a year-to-year basis. Changes in government policies, priorities or funding levels through agency or program budget reductions by the U.S. Congress or executive agencies could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. Furthermore, our contracts with the U.S. government may be terminated or suspended by the U.S. government at any time, with or without cause. Such contract suspensions or terminations could result in unreimbursable expenses or charges or otherwise adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Table of Contents

Departments and agencies of the U.S. government have the authority to investigate various transactions and operations of the Company, and the results of such investigations may lead to administrative, civil or criminal proceedings, the ultimate outcome of which could be fines, penalties, repayments or compensatory or treble damages. U.S. government regulations provide that certain findings against a contractor may lead to suspension or debarment from future U.S. government contracts or the loss of export privileges for a company or an operating division or subdivision. Suspension or debarment could have a material adverse effect on the Company because of its reliance on U.S. government contracts.

U.S. government agencies, including the Defense Contract Audit Agency, the Defense Contract Management Agency and others, routinely audit and review our performance on government contracts, indirect rates and pricing practices, and compliance with applicable contracting and procurement laws, regulations and standards. Accordingly, costs billed or billable to U.S. government customers are subject to potential adjustment upon audit by such agencies. The U.S. government agencies also review the adequacy of our compliance with government standards for our business systems, including our accounting, earned value management, estimating, materials management and accounting, purchasing, and property management systems.

As a result of final indirect rate negotiations between the U.S. government and our Former Parent, we may be subject to potential adjustments to costs previously allocated by our Former Parent to our business, which was formerly Exelis’ Mission Systems Business, from 2007 through September 2014. Because we do not participate in indirect rate negotiations between the U.S. government and our Former Parent, we cannot reasonably predict the likelihood of such adjustments or the ultimate responsible party. We have recently been in discussions with our Former Parent regarding the negotiated adjustments for 2007-2014 and believe that our potential cumulative liability for these years is insignificant. In June 2019, the U.S. government provided us with the Contracting Officer's Final Decision for the years 2007 - 2010 related to Former Parent costs. We believe we are fully indemnified under our Distribution Agreement with our Former Parent. We have notified our Former Parent of the U.S. government's decision in this matter.

NOTE 14

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On July 8, 2019, we acquired Advantor Systems Corporation and Advantor Systems, LLC (collectively, "Advantor") from Infrasafe Holding, Inc. and Infrasafe, LLC (collectively, "Infrasafe"). Advantor, a leading provider of integrated electronic security systems to the U.S. government, was acquired for cash consideration of $44 million, subject to customary adjustments at and following the closing. The transaction was funded with cash on hand and from our credit facility.

Overview

Vectrus is a leading provider of services to the U.S. government worldwide. We operate in one segment and offer facility and logistics services and information technology and network communications services.

Our primary customer is the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD), with a high concentration in the U.S. Army. For the six months ended June 28, 2019 and June 29, 2018, we had total revenue of $657.5 million and $641.6 million, respectively, all of which was derived from U.S. government customers. For the six months ended June 28, 2019 and June 29, 2018, we generated approximately 69% and 74%, respectively, of our total revenue from the U.S. Army.

Executive Summary

Our revenue increased by $10.5 million, or 3.3%, for the three months ended June 28, 2019 compared to the three months ended June 29, 2018. The increase in revenue was attributable to increases from our European programs of $8.6 million and our Middle East programs of $4.4 million, offset by a decrease of $2.5 million from our U.S. programs.

Operating income for the three months ended June 28, 2019, was $11.2 million, a decrease of $1.8 million, or 13.9%, compared to the three months ended June 29, 2018. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease of $2.1 million from our U.S. programs and $1.2 million from our Middle East programs, offset by an increase of $1.5 million from our European programs.

Table of Contents

During the performance of our contracts, we periodically review estimated final contract prices and costs and make revisions as required, which are recorded as changes in revenue and cost of revenue in the periods in which they are determined. Additionally, the fees under certain contracts may be increased or decreased in accordance with cost or performance incentive provisions which measure actual performance against established targets or other criteria. Such incentive fee awards or penalties are included in revenue when there is sufficient information to reasonably assess anticipated contract performance. Amounts representing contract change orders, claims, requests for equitable adjustment, or limitations in funding on contracts are recorded only if it is probable the claim will result in additional contract revenue and the amounts can be reliably estimated. Changes in estimated revenue, cost of revenue and the related effect to operating income are recognized using cumulative adjustments, which recognize in the current period the cumulative effect of the changes on current and prior periods based on a contract's percentage of completion. Cumulative adjustments due to aggregate changes in contract estimates increased operating income by $1.9 million and $3.7 million for the three months ended June 28, 2019 and June 29, 2018, respectively. Cumulative adjustments are driven by changes in contract terms, program performance, customer scope changes and changes to estimates in the reported period. These changes can increase or decrease operating income depending on the dynamics of each contract.

Further details related to our financial results for the three and six months ended June 28, 2019, compared to the three and six months ended June 29, 2018, are contained in the "Discussion of Financial Results" section.

Recent Developments

On April 12, 2019, the U.S. Army Contracting Command-Rock Island (ACC-RI) awarded four IDIQ, Multiple Award Task Order Contracts (MATOC), for the Logistics Civil Augmentation Program (LOGCAP) V support services in support of the U.S. military worldwide. The services are to support the Geographical Combatant Commands (GCCs) and Army Service Component Commands (ASCCs) throughout the full range of military operations. Each basic IDIQ contract Ordering Period will be an initial five-year ordering period and options for five additional one-year ordering periods.

Vectrus is one of the four award recipients of the basic IDIQ contract and received the following task orders: PACOM Setting the Theater Task Order and associated Performance Task Order; and CENTCOM Setting the Theater Task Order and associated Performance Task Order. Each task order has its own period of performance. Several protests of the LOGCAP V award have been filed with the GAO. We cannot predict the timing or outcome of the resolution of these or other protests of this award.

During the first quarter of 2019 we were awarded a new, five year, $117 million, cost-plus fixed-fee award to provide defensive cyber operations and operational and maintenance IT to a U.S. government client.

Information regarding certain other significant contracts is discussed in "Significant Contracts" below.

Significant Contracts

The following table reflects contracts that accounted for more than 10% of our total revenue for the six months ended June 28, 2019 and June 29, 2018:



	% of Total Revenue
	Six Months Ended
Contract Name	June 28, 2019	June 29, 2018
Kuwait Base Operations and Security Support Services (K-BOSSS)	36.6%	40.3%
Operations, Maintenance and Defense of Army Communications in Southwest Asia and Central Asia (OMDAC-SWACA)	15.9%	14.0%

Revenue associated with a contract will fluctuate based on increases or decreases in the work being performed on the contract, award fee payments, and other contract modifications within the term of the contract resulting in changes to the total contract value. See "Backlog" below.

Table of Contents

The K-BOSSS contract currently is exercised through March 28, 2020, with an additional six-month option through September 28, 2020. K-BOSSS, our largest base operations support services contract, supports geographically-dispersed locations within the State of Kuwait, including several camps and a range training complex. K-BOSSS provides critical base operations support and security support services, including forms, publications, and reproduction services; U.S. Army postal operations; range operations and maintenance; logistics; information management; public works; environmental services; medical administrative support; morale, welfare and recreation; and security, fire and emergency services. The K-BOSSS contract was re-competed as a task order under the LOGCAP V contract vehicle, which was awarded April 12, 2019 (see "Recent Developments" above). The K-BOSSS contract contributed $241 million and $258 million of revenue for the six months ended June 28, 2019 and June 29, 2018, respectively.

The OMDAC-SWACA contract is currently exercised through November 30, 2019, with a one-month option and a two-month option through February 28, 2020. The contract provides for enterprise network capabilities and services support of the U.S. Central Command. Work is based in Kuwait with additional locations throughout Southwest Asia. Technical support activities include the Southwest Asia Regional Cyber-Center (RCC-SWA) operations, regional network operations and security centers (RNOSCs), local area and wide area network administration, systems administration, service desk administration, computer repair (ADPE), email administration, the Defense Red Switch Network, satellite communications, microwave communications, tower and antenna maintenance, technical control facilities, high frequency and ultra-high frequency radios, telephone switches, telephone operations, inside and outside cable plants, prime power and backup power generators, HVAC systems, uninterruptible power supplies, logistics support services, and other contingency requirements for the warfighter. The OMDAC-SWACA contract contributed $104 million and $90 million of revenue for the six months ended June 28, 2019 and June 29, 2018, respectively.

Backlog

Total backlog includes remaining performance obligations, consisting of funded backlog (firm orders for which funding is contractually obligated by the customer) and unfunded backlog (firm orders for which funding is not currently contractually obligated by the customer, and unexercised contract options). Total backlog excludes potential orders under IDIQ contracts and contracts awarded to us that are being protested by competitors with the GAO or in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims. The value of the backlog is based on anticipated revenue levels over the anticipated life of the contract. Actual values may be greater or less than anticipated. Total backlog is converted into revenue as work is performed. The level of order activity related to programs can be affected by the timing of government funding authorizations and their project evaluation cycles. Year-over-year comparisons could, at times, be impacted by these factors, among others.

Our contracts are multi-year contracts and typically include an initial period of one year or less with annual one-year (or less) option periods for the remaining contract period. The number of option periods vary by contract, and there is no guarantee that an option period will be exercised. The right to exercise an option period is at the sole discretion of the U.S. government when we are the prime contractor or of the prime contractor when we are a subcontractor. The U.S. government may also extend the term of a program by issuing extensions or bridge contracts, typically for periods of one year or less.

We expect to recognize a substantial portion of our funded backlog as revenue within the next 12 months. However, the U.S. government or the prime contractor may cancel any contract at any time through a termination for convenience. Most of our contracts have terms that would permit us to recover all or a portion of our incurred costs and fees for work performed in the event of a termination for convenience.

For the six months ended June 28, 2019, total backlog increased by $209 million. As of June 28, 2019, total backlog (funded and unfunded) was $3.2 billion as set forth in the following table:



	June 28,		December 31,
(In millions)	2019		2018
Funded backlog	$	934	$	689
Unfunded backlog	2,287		2,323
Total backlog	$	3,221	$	3,012

Funded orders (different from funded backlog) represent orders for which funding was received during the period. We received funded orders of $812.1 million during the six months ended June 28, 2019, which was an increase of $27.4 million compared to the six months ended June 29, 2018.

Economic Opportunities, Challenges and Risks

The U.S. government’s investment in services and capabilities in response to changing security challenges creates a complex and fluid business environment for Vectrus and other firms in this market segment. The pace and depth of U.S. government acquisition reform and cost savings initiatives, combined with increased industry competitiveness to win long-term positions on key programs, could add pressure to revenue levels and profit margins going forward. However, we expect the U.S. government will continue to place a high priority on national security and will continue to invest in affordable solutions for its facilities, logistics, equipment and communication needs, which aligns with our services and strengths. Further, the DoD budget remains the largest in the world and management believes our addressable portion of the DoD budget offers substantial opportunity for growth.

We believe spending on operation and maintenance of defense assets, as well as civilian agency infrastructure and equipment, will continue to be a U.S. government priority. Our focus is on sustaining facilities, equipment and IT networks, which we believe aligns with our customers' intent to utilize existing equipment and infrastructure rather than executing new purchases. Many of the core functions we perform are mission-essential, including the following: (i) keeping communications networks operational; (ii) maintaining airfields; and (iii) providing emergency services. While customers may reduce the level of services required from us, we do not currently anticipate the complete elimination of these services.

The information provided above does not represent a complete list of trends and uncertainties that could impact our business in either the near or long-term and should be considered along with the risk factors identified under the caption “Risk Factors” identified in Part 1, Item 1A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 and the matters identified under the caption “Forward-Looking Information" herein.

Net Income	$	7,617		$	9,195		$	(1,578	)	(17.2	)%

Revenue

Revenue for the three months ended June 28, 2019 was $331.6 million, an increase of $10.5 million, or 3.3%, as compared to the three months ended June 29, 2018. The increase in revenue was attributable to increases from our European programs of $8.6 million and our Middle East programs of $4.4 million, offset by a decrease of $2.5 million from our U.S. programs.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue was 90.6% compared to 90.9% for the three months ended June 28, 2019 and the three months ended June 29, 2018, respectively. The increase in cost of revenue of $8.5 million, or 2.9%, for the three months ended June 28, 2019, as compared to the three months ended June 29, 2018, was primarily due to increased revenue as described above.

Table of Contents

Selling, General & Administrative (SG&A) Expenses

For the three months ended June 28, 2019, SG&A expenses of $19.8 million increased by $3.8 million, or 23.5%, as compared to the three months ended June 29, 2018. The increase was due primarily to increased M&A costs of $0.7 million, stock-based compensation of $1.5 million and legal fees of $0.6 million.

Operating Income

Operating income for the three months ended June 28, 2019 decreased by $1.8 million, or 13.9%, as compared to the three months ended June 29, 2018. This decrease was due to lower operating income of $2.1 million from our U.S. programs and $1.2 million from our Middle East programs, offset by an increase of $1.5 million from our European programs. Overall operating income decreased primarily as a result of increased SG&A expenses, as noted above.

Operating income as a percentage of revenue was 3.4% for the three months ended June 28, 2019, compared to 4.0% for the three months ended June 29, 2018.

Aggregate cumulative adjustments increased operating income by $1.9 million and $3.7 million for the three months ended June 28, 2019 and June 29, 2018, respectively. The aggregate cumulative adjustments for the three months ended June 28, 2019 related to higher margins associated with operational efficiencies related to labor and management of contract staffing. The aggregate cumulative adjustments for the three months ended June 29, 2018 related to approved extensions with higher margins associated with labor-related items and management of contract staffing, partially offset by higher subcontractor costs and seasonal costs. The gross aggregate effects of these favorable and unfavorable changes in estimates in the three months ended June 28, 2019 and June 29, 2018 were $2.7 million and $6.3 million favorable to operating income, respectively, and $0.8 million and $2.6 million unfavorable to operating income, respectively.

Revenue

Revenue for the six months ended June 28, 2019 was $657.5 million, an increase of $15.9 million, or 2.5%, as compared to the six months ended June 29, 2018. The increase in revenue was attributable to increases from our Middle East programs of $10.9 million and our European programs of $9.8 million, offset by a decrease of $4.8 million from our U.S. programs.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue was 90.7% compared to 91.3% for the six months ended June 28, 2019 and the six months ended June 29, 2018, respectively. The increase in cost of revenue of $10.0 million, or 1.7%, for the six months ended June 28, 2019, as compared to the six months ended June 29, 2018, was primarily due to increased revenue as described above.

SG&A Expenses

For the six months ended June 28, 2019, SG&A expenses of $39.8 million increased by $5.9 million, or 17.4%, as compared to the six months ended June 29, 2018. The increase was due primarily to increased M&A costs of $1.7 million, stock-based compensation of $1.5 million, legal fees of $0.6 million and various miscellaneous expenses of $2.1 million.

Table of Contents

Operating Income

Operating income for the six months ended June 28, 2019 decreased by $0.1 million, or 0.3%, as compared to the six months ended June 29, 2018. This decrease was primarily due to higher operating income of $1.0 million from our Middle East programs and $0.4 million from our European programs, offset by a decrease of $1.5 million from our U.S. programs. Overall operating income decreased primarily as a result of increased SG&A expense, as noted above.

Operating income as a percentage of revenue was 3.3% for the six months ended June 28, 2019, compared to 3.4% for the six months ended June 29, 2018.

Aggregate cumulative adjustments increased operating income by $0.8 million and $6.6 million for the six months ended June 28, 2019 and June 29, 2018, respectively. The aggregate cumulative adjustments for the six months ended June 28, 2019 related to higher margins associated with operational efficiencies related to labor and management of contract staffing. The aggregate cumulative adjustments for the six months ended June 29, 2018 related to higher margins associated with labor-related items and management of contract staffing. The gross aggregate effects of these favorable and unfavorable changes in estimates in the six months ended June 28, 2019 and June 29, 2018 were $5.2 million and $10.4 million favorable to operating income, respectively, and $4.4 million and $3.9 million unfavorable to operating income, respectively.

Interest (Expense) Income, Net

Interest (expense) income, net for the three and six months ended June 28, 2019 and June 29, 2018 was as follows:



	Three Months Ended						Change					Six Months Ended						Change
(In thousands, except for percentages)	June 28, 2019			June 29, 2018			$			%		June 28, 2019			June 29, 2018			$			%
Interest income	$	69		$	23		$	46		200.6		$	108		$	39		$	69		176.9
Interest expense	(1,398		)	(1,163		)	(235		)	(20.2	)	(3,012		)	(2,344		)	(668		)	(28.5	)
Interest expense, net	$	(1,329	)	$	(1,140	)	$	(189	)	(16.6	)	$	(2,904	)	$	(2,305	)	$	(599	)	(26.0	)

Interest income is directly related to interest earned on our cash. Interest expense is directly related to borrowings under our senior secured credit facilities, with the amortization of debt issuance costs and derivative instruments used to hedge a portion of our exposure to interest rate risk. The increase in interest expense of $0.2 million and $0.6 million for the three and six months ended June 28, 2019 compared to the three and six months ended June 29, 2018, respectively, was due to increased use of our revolving credit facility in 2019 to finance short-term working capital requirements.

Income Tax Expense

For the three months ended June 28, 2019 and June 29, 2018, we recorded income tax provisions of $2.2 million and $2.7 million respectively, representing effective income tax rates of 22.8% and 22.5%, respectively. For the six months ended June 28, 2019 and June 29, 2018, we recorded income tax provisions of $4.0 million and $4.1 million, respectively, representing effective income tax rates of 21.4% and 21.0%, respectively. The higher effective income tax rates in the 2019 periods are the result of one-time discretionary items.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity

Historically, we have generated operating cash flow sufficient to fund our working capital, capital expenditure and financing requirements. We expect to fund our ongoing working capital, capital expenditure and financing requirements through cash flows from operations, cash on hand and access to capital markets. When necessary we will utilize our revolving credit facility to satisfy short-term working capital requirements.

If our cash flows from operations are less than we expect, we may need to access the long-term or short-term capital markets. Although we believe that our current financing arrangements will permit us to finance our operations on acceptable terms and conditions, our access to and the availability of financing on acceptable terms and conditions in the future will be impacted by many factors, including: (i) our credit ratings or absence of a credit rating, (ii) the liquidity of the overall capital markets and (iii) the current state of the economy. We cannot provide assurance that such financing will be available to us on acceptable terms or that such financing will be available at all.

The cash presented on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets consists of U.S. and international cash from wholly owned subsidiaries. Approximately $15.8 million of our total $70.3 million in cash at June 28, 2019 is held by our foreign subsidiaries and is not available to fund U.S. operations unless repatriated. We do not currently expect that we will be required to repatriate undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries. We expect our U.S. domestic cash resources will be sufficient to fund our U.S. operating activities and cash commitments for financing activities.

Table of Contents

In September 2014, we and our wholly-owned subsidiary, VSC, entered into a credit agreement with a group of lenders, including JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as administrative agent. The credit agreement was amended as of April 19, 2016, to modify certain financial and negative covenants (as so amended, the Credit Agreement). On November 15, 2017, we and VSC entered into an Amendment and Restatement Agreement (the Amendment Agreement) with a group of lenders, including JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, which provides for the amendment and restatement of the Credit Agreement. The Amendment Agreement provides for $200.0 million in senior secured financing, consisting of a $80.0 million five-year term loan facility (the Amended Term Loan) and a $120.0 million five-year senior secured revolving credit facility (the Amended Revolver, and together with the Amended Term Loan, the Amended Credit Facilities). We used $74.6 million from the Amended Term Loan to repay principal and accrued but unpaid interest on the Credit Agreement. There were no outstanding borrowings under the Amended Revolver at June 28, 2019. At June 28, 2019, there were seven letters of credit outstanding in the aggregate amount of $8.1 million, which reduced our borrowing availability under the Amended Revolver to $111.9 million.

Dividends

We do not currently plan to pay a regular dividend on our common stock. The declaration of any future cash dividends and if declared, the amount of any such dividends, will depend upon our financial condition, earnings, capital requirements, financial covenants and other contractual restrictions and the discretion of our Board of Directors. In deciding whether to pay future dividends on our common stock, our Board of Directors may consider such matters as general business conditions, industry practice, our financial condition and performance, our future prospects, our cash needs and capital investment plans, income tax consequences, applicable law and such other factors as our Board of Directors may deem relevant. As of June 28, 2019, the maximum amount of dividends we could pay was $19.3 million based upon the limitations within our Amended Credit Facilities.

Sources and Uses of Liquidity

Cash, accounts receivable, unbilled receivables, and accounts payable are the principal components of our working capital and are generally driven by our level of revenue with other short-term fluctuations related to payment practices by our customers and the timing of our billings. Our receivables reflect amounts billed to our customers, as well as the revenue that was recognized in the preceding month, which is normally billed the month following each balance sheet date.

The total amount of our accounts receivable can vary significantly over time and is sensitive to revenue levels and the timing of payments received from our customers. Days sales outstanding (DSO) is a metric used to monitor accounts receivable levels. Our DSO was 63 days as of both June 28, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

The following table sets forth net cash used in operating activities, investing activities and financing activities:

Trends in our operating cash flows tend to follow trends in operating income, excluding non-cash charges. Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 28, 2019 consisted of net income of $14.7 million, increased by non-cash items of $7.0 million and offset by unfavorable net working capital changes of $1.9 million primarily due to the timing of cash payments as reflected in our increase in other assets. Unfavorable net changes in other long-term assets and liabilities contributed an additional $4.3 million to operating cash outflows.

Net cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 29, 2018 consisted of net income of $15.3 million, increased by non-cash items of $4.4 million offset by unfavorable net working capital changes of $15.5 million primarily due to the timing of cash collections, as reflected in an increase in receivables.

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 28, 2019 consisted of capital expenditures for the purchase of intangible assets, software and hardware, leasehold improvements, and vehicles and equipment related to ongoing operations. Net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 29, 2018 consisted of $37.2 million for the acquisition of SENTEL and $0.8 million for the purchase of hardware and software related to ongoing operations.

Net cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 28, 2019 consisted of $3.5 million in cash received from the exercise of stock options offset by repayments of long-term debt of $2.0 million and payments related to

employee withholding taxes on share-based compensation in the amount of $0.8 million. During the six months ended June 28, 2019, we borrowed and repaid a total of $98.0 million from the Amended Revolver to meet short-term working capital requirements.

Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 29, 2018 consisted of repayments of long-term debt of $2.0 million and payments related to employee withholding taxes on share-based compensation in the amount of $0.8 million, offset by $1.4 million in cash received from the exercise of stock options. During the six months ended June 29, 2018, we borrowed and repaid a total of $55.0 million from the Amended Revolver to meet short-term working capital requirements and to fund a portion of the purchase price for the acquisition of SENTEL.

Capital Resources

At June 28, 2019, we held cash of $70.3 million, which included $15.8 million held by foreign subsidiaries, and had $111.9 million of available borrowing capacity under the Amended Revolver, which expires on November 15, 2022. We believe that our cash at June 28, 2019, as supplemented by cash flows from operations and the Amended Revolver, will be sufficient to fund our anticipated operating costs, capital expenditures and current debt repayment obligations for at least the next 12 months.

Contractual Obligations

During the six months ended June 28, 2019, we paid $2.0 million in quarterly installment payments on the Amended Term Loan. See Note 10, "Leases" for additional contractual obligation information.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have obligations relating to operating leases and outstanding letters of credit. Our Amended Revolver permits borrowings up to $120.0 million, of which $25.0 million is available for the issuance of letters of credit. At June 28, 2019, there were seven letters of credit outstanding in the aggregate amount of $8.1 million, which reduced our borrowing availability under the Amended Revolver to $111.9 million. These arrangements have not had, and management does not believe it is likely that they will in the future have, a material effect on our liquidity, capital resources, operations or financial condition. At June 28, 2019, we had no material off-balance sheet arrangements.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES, ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS

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, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Estimates are revised as additional information becomes available. Management believes that the accounting estimates employed and the resulting balances are reasonable; however, actual results in these areas could differ from management's estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

We believe that the assumptions and estimates associated with revenue recognition, goodwill impairment assessments and income taxes have the greatest potential impact on our financial statements. Therefore, we consider these to be our critical accounting policies and estimates.

Beginning January 1, 2019, we adopted ASU 2016-02 related to lease accounting. Refer to Note 10, "Leases" for further discussion regarding the impact of the adoption of this standard. There have been no other material changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates from those discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Refer to Part I, Item 1, Note 2, "Recent Accounting Pronouncements" in the notes to our unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for information regarding accounting pronouncements and accounting standards updates.

uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical experience and our present expectations or projections. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: our ability to submit proposals for and/or win all potential opportunities in our pipeline; our ability to retain and renew our existing contracts; our ability to compete with other companies in our market; security breaches and other disruptions to our information technology and operation; our mix of cost-plus, cost- reimbursable, and firm-fixed-price contracts; maintaining our reputation and relationship with the U.S. government; protests of new awards; integration of acquisitions into our business; economic, political and social conditions in the countries in which we conduct our businesses; changes in U.S. or international government defense budgets; government regulations and compliance therewith, including changes to the DoD procurement process; changes in technology; intellectual property matters; governmental investigations, reviews, audits and cost adjustments; contingencies related to actual or alleged environmental contamination, claims and concerns; delays in completion of the U.S. government's budget; our success in extending, deepening, and enhancing our technical capabilities; our success in expanding our geographic footprint or broadening our customer base; our ability to realize the full amounts reflected in our backlog; impairment of goodwill; misconduct of our employees, subcontractors, agents, prime contractors and business partners; our ability to control costs; our level of indebtedness; and terms of our credit agreement; interest rate risk; subcontractor performance; economic and capital markets conditions; our ability to maintain safe work sites and equipment; our ability to retain and recruit qualified personnel; and to maintain good relationships with our workforce; our teaming relationships with contractors; changes in our accounting estimates; the adequacy of our insurance coverage; volatility in our stock price; changes in our tax provisions or exposure to additional income tax liabilities; risks and uncertainties relating to the Spin-off; changes in U.S. generally accepted accounting principles; and other factors described in Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” and elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 and described from time to time in our future reports filed with the SEC.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our earnings, cash flows and financial position are exposed to market risks relating to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. All of the potential changes noted below are based on information available at June 28, 2019.

Interest Rate Risk

Each one percentage point change associated with the variable rate Amended Term Loan would result in a $0.7 million change in our annual cash interest expenses. However, we have interest rate swaps in place to hedge a portion of this risk. Refer to Note 9, "Derivative Instruments" for additional information regarding our interest rate swaps.

Assuming our Amended Revolver was fully drawn to a principal amount equal to $120.0 million, each one percentage point change in interest rates would result in a $1.2 million change in our annual cash interest expense.

As of June 28, 2019, the notional value of our interest rate swap agreements totaled $54.9 million. The difference to be paid or received under the terms of the interest rate swap agreements is accrued as interest rates change and recognized as an adjustment to interest expense for the related debt in the period incurred. Changes in the variable interest rates to be paid pursuant to the terms of the interest rate swap agreements will have a corresponding effect on future cash flows.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

The majority of our business is conducted in U.S. dollars. However, we are required to transact in foreign currencies for some of our contracts, resulting in some assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. Therefore, our earnings may experience some volatility related to movements in foreign currency exchange rates. We enter into forward foreign exchange contracts to buy or sell various foreign currencies to selectively protect against volatility in the value of non-functional currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities. Changes in the fair value of these forward contracts are recognized in earnings. As of June 28, 2019, the U.S. dollar notional value of our outstanding foreign currency forward contracts was approximately $7.9 million. The net fair value of these contracts at June 28, 2019 was a liability of $0.3 million.

We perform a sensitivity analysis to determine the effects that market risk exposures may have on the fair values of our foreign currency forward contracts. To perform the sensitivity analysis, we assess the risk of loss in fair values from the effect of hypothetical changes in foreign currency exchange rates. This analysis assumes a like movement by the foreign currencies in our hedge portfolio against the U.S. dollar. As of June 28, 2019, a 5% appreciation in the value of the U.S. dollar would result in a net decrease in the fair value of our derivative portfolio of approximately $0.4 million.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company's management, with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of June 28, 2019. Based on such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 28, 2019, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Beginning January 1, 2019, we implemented ASC Topic 842. In connection with its adoption, we implemented changes to our processes and control activities related to lease accounting. These changes included updating policies and procedures to reflect the lease accounting and disclosure requirements.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 28, 2019 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

From time to time we are involved in legal proceedings that are incidental to the operation of our business. Some of these proceedings seek remedies relating to employment matters, matters in connection with our contracts and matters arising under laws relating to the protection of the environment.

As a result of final indirect rate negotiations between the U.S. government and our Former Parent, we may be subject to potential adjustments to costs previously allocated by our Former Parent to our business, which was formerly Exelis’ Mission Systems Business, from 2007 through September 2014. Because we do not participate in indirect rate negotiations between the U.S. government and our Former Parent, we cannot reasonably predict the likelihood of such adjustments or the ultimate responsible party. We have recently been in discussions with our Former Parent regarding the negotiated adjustments for 2007-2014 and believe that our potential cumulative liability for these years is insignificant. In June 2019, the U.S. government provided us with the Contracting Officer's Final Decision for the years 2007 - 2010 related to Former Parent costs. We believe we are fully indemnified under our Distribution Agreement with our Former Parent. We have notified our former parent of the U.S. government's decision in this matter.

Although the ultimate outcome of any legal matter cannot be predicted with certainty, based on present information, including our assessment of the merits of the particular claim, we do not expect that any asserted or unasserted legal claims or proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our cash flow, results of operations or financial condition.
