Item 1. Business

Our Company

Leidos Holdings, Inc. ("Leidos"), a Delaware corporation, is a holding company whose direct 100%-owned
subsidiary and principal operating company is Leidos, Inc. Leidos was founded in 1969 by physicist Dr. Robert
Beyster. Since our founding 52 years ago, we have applied our expertise in science, research and engineering in
rapidly-evolving technologies and markets to solve complex problems of global concern.

We use the terms "we," "us" and "our" to refer collectively to Leidos Holdings, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Leidos is a FORTUNE 500® science, engineering and information technology company that provides services and
solutions in the defense, intelligence, homeland security, civil and health markets, both domestically and
internationally. We bring domain-specific capabilities and innovations to customers in each of these markets by
leveraging five technical core competencies: digital modernization, cyber operations, mission software systems,
integrated systems and mission operations. Applying our technically-advanced solutions to help solve our
customers' most difficult problems has enabled us to build strong relationships with key customers. Our customers
include the U.S. Department of Defense ("DoD"), the U.S. Intelligence Community, the U.S. Department of
Homeland Security ("DHS"), the Federal Aviation Administration ("FAA"), the Department of Veterans Affairs ("VA")
and many other U.S. civilian, state and local government agencies as well as foreign government agencies. With a
focus on delivering mission-critical solutions, Leidos generated 87% of fiscal 2020 revenues from U.S. government
contracts.

By leveraging expertise in multiple disciplines, tailoring our services and solutions to the particular needs of our
targeted markets and using advanced analytics, we work to securely deliver services and solutions that not only
meet customers' current goals, but also support their future missions.

Our Business Segments

At January 1, 2021, our business is aligned into three reportable segments (Defense Solutions, Civil and Health).
Additionally, we separately present the unallocable costs associated with corporate functions as Corporate. Our
operations and reportable segments are organized around the customers and markets we serve. We provide a wide
array of scientific, engineering and technical services and solutions across these reportable segments. Less than
10% of our revenues and tangible long-lived assets are generated by or owned by entities located outside of the
United States.

Effective the beginning of fiscal 2020, certain contracts were reassigned from the Civil reportable segment to the
Defense Solutions reportable segment. Prior year segment results have been recast to reflect this change.

Defense Solutions

Defense Solutions provides leading-edge and technologically advanced services, solutions and products to a broad
customer base. Our ever-changing technologies and innovations cover a wide spectrum of markets with primary
areas of concentration in digital modernization and integrated systems, Command, Control, Communications,

and help to guide our decisions in the workplace, and are a key component of our corporate culture. Our practices
are based on our commitment to do the right thing for our customers, our employees and our community. Our
values are demonstrated by our employees as they help our customers execute important missions on the front
lines of the world’s most complex markets. In addition, we have integrated our values into all employees’ annual
performance assessments to focus on the behaviors expected of employees.

Our policies, procedures, training and communications form a comprehensive program that promotes a culture of
integrity as a foundation for employee conduct. For the third consecutive year, the Ethisphere Institute named

Career Mobility, Development and Growth

We recognize the value of having a high-performing workforce and are committed to providing opportunities for

develops effective and inclusive leaders. Our managers and executive leaders participate in leadership
development programs targeted towards the competencies and skills needed at their level. Annually we host a two-
day Leadership Summit for approximately 350 of our most senior leaders aligning business strategy and
transformation initiatives, alongside emphasizing the core values of our organization.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 8

PART I

We have an annual succession planning process at Leidos that identifies and develops high-potential employees at
all levels of the organization. We create succession plans for all executive-level positions as well as for other roles
throughout the organization considered vital to our success. In addition, we create development and engagement
plans for top talent comprised of formal and informal training, mentoring, coaching and experiential learning
opportunities.

Diversity in Talent Acquisition

Leidos is committed to promoting diversity and inclusion in our hiring practices, especially when we are seeking to
fill senior level positions. Our recruiting strategy includes building a pipeline of diverse candidates. Each year we
attend and sponsor a variety of national conferences and local career fairs that specifically engage talent across
various dimensions of diversity including ethnically diverse, gender, military status and sexual orientation.

We leverage our college campus and military veteran outreach as well as our ERGs to recruit diverse candidates.
Our college campus outreach engages talent from multiple university sources including the Leidos Strategic
University Alliances, Historically Black Colleges and Universities and Hispanic Serving Institutions. Our military
veteran outreach program attracts, retains and supports current veterans, transitioning service members and
military spouses.

Health and Workplace Safety

Our primary focus is on the health and safety of our employees. We have formed a multi-functional working group to
monitor and respond to COVID-19. This group is closely following the recommendations of the World Health
Organization and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, as well as national and local authorities in
the regions where we perform work for our customers. We have taken steps to support increased teleworking and
working environments. We have established a three phase COVID-19 guide recommending when it is safe for
employees to return to work and the percentage of employees permitted to be in a Leidos facility. Employees are
also required to review our self-screening checklist prior to coming into a facility. When working at a Leidos facility,
we require all employees to wear face coverings while in common areas and where social distancing is not easily
maintained and common surface areas and equipment are sanitized before and after each use.

We believe we are a leader in the field of occupational health and safety (“OH&S”) and we place a strong emphasis
on these activities, both internally and on behalf of our customers. Internally, we emphasize direct management
responsibility, corporate policies and directives, OH&S program implementation, employee training and compliance
assessments. Our corporate policies and procedures support compliance with OH&S regulations at work locations.
We have a proactive compliance program of employee education, training, auditing and reporting that, through
employee awareness and integration into our business operations, supports our commitment to a safe and healthy
environment.

Research and Development

We conduct research and development activities under customer-funded contracts and with company-funded
research and development funds. Company-funded research and development includes independent research and
development ("IR&D") and commercial and international research and development. Company-funded research and
development expenses are included in selling, general and administrative expenses. Our company-funded research
and development expense was $73 million, $49 million and $46 million for fiscal 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively,
which as a percentage of consolidated revenues was 0.6%, 0.4% and 0.5% for fiscal 2020, 2019 and 2018,
respectively. We charge expenses for research and development activities performed under customer contracts
directly to cost of revenues for those contracts.

Intellectual Property Rights

Our technical services and products are not generally dependent upon patent protection, although we do selectively
seek patent protection. We claim a proprietary interest in certain of our products, software programs, methodologies
and know-how. This proprietary information is protected in confidence as trade secrets, using non-disclosure and
other definitive agreements. We selectively pursue opportunities to license or transfer our technologies to third
parties.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 9

PART I

In connection with the performance of services and solutions, the U.S. government has certain rights to inventions,
data, software codes and related material that we develop under U.S. government-funded contracts and
subcontracts. Generally, the U.S. government may disclose or license such information to third parties, including, in
some instances, our competitors. In the case of some subcontracts that we perform, the prime contractor generally
obtains rights to use the programs and products that we deliver under the subcontract to perform its prime contract
obligations.

Competition

Competition for contracts is significant, and we often compete against a large number of well-established
corporations that may have greater name and brand recognition. We also compete against smaller, more
specialized companies that concentrate their resources on particular areas, the U.S. government’s own capabilities
and federal non-profit contract research centers. As a result of the diverse requirements of the U.S. government and
our commercial customers, we frequently collaborate with other companies to compete for large contracts and bid
against these same companies in other situations.

We believe that our principal competitors currently include the following companies: Amentum Services Inc., Booz
Allen Hamilton Inc., CACI International Inc., General Dynamics Corporation, Jacobs Engineering Group Inc., KBR
Inc., L3Harris, Lockheed Martin Corporation, ManTech International Corporation, Northrop Grumman Corporation,
Perspecta Inc., Raytheon Technologies Corporation and SAIC. These companies span across sectors that include
engineering and technical services divisions of large defense contractors, diversified U.S. and international IT
providers and contractors focused solely on technical services, supply chain management, other logistics services
and major systems operations and maintenance, homeland security and health solutions.

We compete on various factors, including our technical expertise and qualified professional and/or security-cleared
personnel, our ability to deliver innovative cost-effective solutions in a timely manner, successful program execution,
our reputation and standing with customers, pricing, the size and geographic presence of our company and past
performance credentials.

Contract Procurement

Our business is heavily regulated and we must comply with and are affected by laws and regulations relating to the
formation, administration and performance of U.S. government and other contracts. The U.S. government
procurement environment has evolved due to statutory and regulatory procurement reform initiatives. Today, U.S.
government customers employ several contracting methods to purchase services and products. Budgetary
pressures and reforms in the procurement process have caused many U.S. government customers to increasingly
purchase services and products using contracting methods that give them the ability to select multiple contract
winners or pre-qualify certain contractors to provide services or products on established general terms and
conditions rather than through single-award contracts. The predominant contracting methods through which U.S.
government agencies procure services and products include the following:

•

Definitive Award Contracts. U.S. government agencies may procure services and products through single
definitive award contracts which specify the scope of services or products purchased and identify the
contractor that will provide the specified services or products. When an agency has a requirement, the
agency will issue a solicitation or request for proposal to which interested contractors can submit a
proposal. The bidding and selection process can take a year or more to complete. For the contractor, this
method of contracting may provide greater certainty of the timing and amounts to be received at the time of
contract award because it generally results in the customer contracting for a specific scope of services or
products from the single definitive successful awardee.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 10

PART I

•

Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity ("IDIQ") Contracts. The U.S. government uses IDIQ contracts to
obtain commitments from contractors to provide certain services or products on pre-established terms and
conditions. The U.S. government then issues task orders under the IDIQ contracts to purchase the specific
services or products it needs. IDIQ contracts are awarded to one or more contractors following a
competitive procurement process. Under a single-award IDIQ contract, all task orders under that contract
are awarded to one pre-established contractor. Under a multiple-award IDIQ contract, task orders can be
awarded to any of the pre-established contractors, which can result in further limited competition for the
award of task orders. Multiple-award IDIQ contracts that are open for any government agency to use for
procurement are commonly referred to as "government-wide acquisition contracts." IDIQ contracts often
have multi-year terms and unfunded ceiling amounts, therefore enabling, but not committing, the U.S.
government to purchase substantial amounts of services or products from one or more contractors. At the
time an IDIQ contract is awarded (prior to the award of any task orders), a contractor may have limited or no
visibility as to the ultimate amount of services or products that the U.S. government will purchase under the
contract, and in the case of a multiple-award IDIQ, the contractor from which such purchases may be made.

U.S. General Services Administration ("GSA") Schedule Contracts. The GSA maintains listings of approved
suppliers of services and products with agreed-upon prices for use throughout the U.S. government. In
order for a company to provide services under a GSA Schedule contract, a company must be pre-qualified
and awarded a contract by the GSA. When an agency uses a GSA Schedule contract to meet its
requirements, the agency, or the GSA on behalf of the agency, conducts the procurement. The user agency,
or the GSA on its behalf, evaluates the user agency’s requirements and initiates a competition limited to
GSA Schedule qualified contractors. GSA Schedule contracts are designed to provide the user agency with
reduced procurement time and lower procurement costs. Similar to IDIQ contracts, at the time a GSA
Schedule contract is awarded, a contractor may have limited or no visibility as to the ultimate amount of
services or products that the U.S. government will purchase under the contract.

• Other Transaction Authority (“OTA”) agreements. Under certain circumstances, U.S. government agencies
can enter into OTA agreements instead of traditional contracts. These agreements are used for two primary
purposes: (1) to carry out basic, applied or advanced research projects that typically relate to technology
stimulation or research, and (2) to carry out prototype projects that are directly relevant to enhancing the
mission effectiveness of military personnel and the supporting platforms, systems, components or materials
proposed to be acquired or developed by the DoD, or to improve platforms, systems, components or
materials in use by DoD components and agencies. OTA agreements are generally exempt from federal
procurement regulations. These exemptions grant the U.S. government the flexibility to include, amend or
exclude contract clauses and requirements that are mandatory in traditional procurements. OTA
agreements also grant more flexibility to structure agreements in numerous ways, including joint ventures,
partnerships or multiple agencies joining together to fund an agreement encompassing multiple providers.

We often partner with other companies, including our competitors, to submit bids for large U.S. government
procurements or other opportunities where we believe that the combination of services and products that we can
provide as a team will help us win and perform the contract. Our relationships with our partners, including whether
we serve as the prime contractor or as a subcontractor, vary with each contract opportunity and typically depend on
the program, contract or customer requirements, as well as the relative size, qualifications, capabilities, customer
relationships and experience of our company and our partners.

Contracting with the U.S. government also subjects us to substantial regulation and unique risks, including the U.S.
government’s ability to cancel any contract at any time through a termination for the convenience of the U.S.
government. Most of our contracts have cancellation terms that would permit us to recover all or a portion of our
incurred costs and fees for work performed where the U.S. government issues a termination for convenience. These
regulations and risks are described in more detail below under "Business–Regulation" and "Risk Factors" in this
Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 11

PART I

Contract Types

Generally, the type of contract for our services and products is determined by or negotiated with the U.S.
government and may depend on certain factors, including the type and complexity of the work to be performed,
degree and timing of the responsibility to be assumed by the contractor for the costs of performance, the extent of
price competition and the amount and nature of the profit incentive offered to the contractor for achieving or
exceeding specified standards or goals. We generate revenues under several types of contracts, including the
following:

•

Cost-reimbursement contracts include cost-plus-fixed-fee, award-fee and incentive-fee contracts. These
contracts provide for reimbursement of our direct contract costs and allocable indirect costs, plus a fee.
These contracts are generally used when uncertainties involved in contract performance do not permit costs
to be estimated with sufficient accuracy to use a fixed-price contract. Cost-reimbursement contracts
generally subject us to lower risk but generally require us to use our best efforts to accomplish the scope of
the work within a specified time and budget. Award and incentive fees are generally based on performance
criteria such as cost, schedule, quality and/or technical performance. Award fees are determined and
earned based on customer evaluation of the company's performance against contractual criteria. Incentive
fees that are based on cost provide for an initially negotiated fee to be adjusted later, typically using a
formula to measure performance against the associated criteria, based on the relationship of total allowable
costs to total target costs.

Fixed-price-incentive-fee ("FP-IF") contracts are substantially similar to cost-plus-incentive-fee contracts
except they require specified targets for cost and profit, price ceiling (but not a profit ceiling or floor) and
profit adjustment formula. Under an FP-IF contract, the allowable costs incurred are eligible for
reimbursement but are subject to a cost-share arrangement, which affects profitability. Generally, if our
costs exceed the contract target cost or are not allowable under the applicable regulations, we may not be
able to obtain reimbursement for all costs and may have our fees reduced or eliminated.

Time-and-materials ("T&M") contracts typically provide for negotiated fixed hourly rates for specified
categories of direct labor plus reimbursement of other direct costs. This type of contract is generally used
when there is uncertainty about the extent or duration of the work to be performed by the contractor at the
time of contract award or it is not possible to anticipate costs with any reasonable degree of confidence. On
T&M contracts, we assume the risk of providing appropriately qualified staff to perform these contracts at
the hourly rates set forth in the contracts over the period of performance of the contracts.

Fixed-price-level-of-effort ("FP-LOE") contracts are substantially similar to T&M contracts except they
require a specified level of effort over a stated period of time on work that can be stated only in general
terms. This type of contract is generally used when the contractor is required to perform an investigation or
study in a specific research and development area and to provide a report showing the results achieved
based on the level of effort. Payment is based on the effort expended rather than the results achieved.

FFP contracts provide for a fixed price for specified products, systems and/or services. This type of contract
is generally used when the government acquires products and services on the basis of reasonably definitive
specifications and which have a determinable fair and reasonable price. These contracts offer us potential
increased profits if we can complete the work at lower costs than planned. While FFP contracts allow us to
benefit from cost savings, these contracts also increase our exposure to the risk of cost overruns.

Our earnings and profitability may vary materially depending on changes in the proportionate amount of revenues
derived from each type of contract and the nature of services or products provided, as well as the achievement of
performance objectives and the stage of performance at which the right to receive fees, particularly under incentive-
fee and award-fee contracts, is finally determined. Cost-reimbursement and T&M contracts generally have lower
profitability than FFP contracts.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 12

PART I

Seasonality

The U.S. government's fiscal year ends on September 30 of each year. While not certain, it is not uncommon for
U.S. government agencies to award extra tasks or complete other contract actions in the timeframe leading up to
the end of its fiscal year in order to avoid the loss of unexpended fiscal year funds, which may favorably impact our
third fiscal quarter. In addition, our quarterly results may be impacted by the number of working days in a given
quarter. We tend to generate less revenue from our labor services during the fourth quarter as a result of the holiday
season.

Regulation

We are heavily regulated in most of the fields in which we operate. We provide services and products to numerous
U.S. government agencies and entities, including to the DoD, the U.S. Intelligence Community and the DHS. When
working with these and other U.S. government agencies and entities, we must comply with various laws and
regulations relating to the formation, administration and performance of contracts. U.S. government contracts
generally are subject to the Federal Acquisition Regulation ("FAR"), which sets forth policies, procedures and
requirements for the acquisition of goods and services by the U.S. government, agency-specific regulations that
implement or supplement the FAR, such as the DoD Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement ("DFARS"), and
other applicable laws and regulations. These regulations impose a broad range of requirements, many of which are
unique to government contracting, including various procurement, import and export, security, contract pricing and
cost, contract termination and adjustment and audit requirements. Among other things, these laws and regulations:

•

require certification and disclosure of all cost and pricing data in connection with certain contract
negotiations;

define allowable and unallowable costs and otherwise govern our right to reimbursement under various
cost-type U.S. government contracts;

require compliance with U.S. government Cost Accounting Standards ("CAS");

require reviews by the Defense Contract Audit Agency ("DCAA"), Defense Contract Management Agency
("DCMA") and other U.S. government agencies of compliance with government requirements for a
contractor’s business systems;

restrict the use and dissemination of and require the protection of unclassified contract-related information
and information classified for national security purposes and the export of certain products and technical
data; and

require us not to compete for work if an actual or potential organizational conflict of interest, as defined by
these laws and regulations, related to such work exists and/or cannot be appropriately mitigated,
neutralized or avoided.

The U.S. government may revise its procurement practices or adopt new contract rules and regulations at any time.
In order to help ensure compliance with these complex laws and regulations, all of our employees are required to
complete ethics and other compliance trainings relevant to their position.

Some of our operations and service offerings involve access to and use by us of personally identifiable information
and/or protected health information. These activities are regulated by extensive federal, state and international
privacy and data security laws requiring organizations to provide certain privacy protections and security safeguards
for such information.

Environmental Matters

Our operations are subject to various foreign, federal, state and local environmental protection and health and
safety laws and regulations. In addition, our operations may become subject to future laws and regulations,
including those related to climate change and environmental sustainability. See "Risk Factors" in this Annual Report
on Form 10-K for further details. Although we do not currently anticipate that the costs of complying with, or the
liabilities associated with, environmental laws will materially and adversely affect us, we cannot ensure that we will
not incur material costs or liabilities in the future.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

In your evaluation of our company and business, you should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described
below, together with information disclosed elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including our
consolidated financial statements and the related notes and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations" in Part II of this Annual Report, and other documents we file with the SEC.
The risks and uncertainties described below are those that we have identified as material but are not the only risks
and uncertainties facing us. If any of these risks or uncertainties actually occurs, our business, financial condition or
operating results could be materially harmed and the price of our stock could decline. Our business is also subject
to general risks and uncertainties that affect many other companies, such as our ability to collect receivables,
overall U.S. and global economic and industry conditions, geopolitical events, changes in laws or accounting rules,
fluctuations in interest and exchange rates, terrorism, international conflicts, major health concerns, climate change
or other disruptions of expected economic and business conditions. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently
known to us or that we currently believe are immaterial also may materially harm our business, financial condition or
operating results and result in a decline in the price of our stock.

Summary of Risk Factors

This risk factor summary contains a high-level summary of risks associated with our business. It does not contain all
of the information that may be important to you, and you should read this risk factor summary together with the
more detailed discussion of risks and uncertainties set forth following this summary. A summary of our risks
includes, but is not limited to, the following:

• We depend on government agencies as our primary customers and if our reputation or relationships with
these agencies were harmed, our future revenues and growth prospects could be adversely affected.

•

A decline in the U.S. government budget, changes in spending or budgetary priorities or delays in contract
awards may significantly and adversely affect our future revenues and limit our growth prospects.

Because we depend on U.S. government contracts, a delay in the completion of the U.S. government's
budget and appropriation process could delay procurement of the products, services and solutions we
provide and have an adverse effect on our future revenues.

The extent to which our business will be adversely affected by COVID-19 or other health epidemics,
pandemics and similar outbreaks is highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.

• Our failure to comply with a variety of complex procurement rules and regulations could result in our being
liable for penalties, including termination of our U.S. government contracts, disqualification from bidding on
future U.S. government contracts and suspension or debarment from U.S. government contracting.

•

The U.S. government may adopt new contract rules and regulations or revise its procurement practices in a
manner adverse to us at any time.

As a U.S. government contractor, we and our partners are subject to reviews, audits and cost adjustments
by the U.S. government, which, if resolved unfavorably to us, could adversely affect our profitability, cash
position or growth prospects.

• Our business is subject to governmental review and investigation, which could adversely affect our financial

position, operating results and growth prospects.

• Misconduct of employees, subcontractors, agents, suppliers, business partners or joint ventures and others
working on our behalf could cause us to lose existing contracts or customers and adversely affect our ability
to obtain new contracts and customers and could have a significant adverse impact on our business and
reputation.

• Due to the competitive process to obtain contracts and the likelihood of bid protests, we may be unable to

achieve or sustain revenue growth and profitability.

•

The U.S. government may terminate, cancel, modify or curtail our contracts at any time prior to their
completion and, if we do not replace them, this may adversely affect our future revenues and profitability.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 15

PART I

• We face intense competition that can impact our ability to obtain contracts and therefore affect our future

revenues and growth prospects.

•

A failure to attract, train, retain and motivate skilled employees, including our management team, would
adversely affect our ability to execute our strategy and may disrupt our operations.

• We may not realize as revenues the full amounts reflected in our backlog, which could adversely affect our

expected future revenues and growth prospects.

• Our earnings and profitability may vary based on the mix of our contracts and may be adversely affected by

our failure to accurately estimate and manage costs, time and resources.

•

Investigations, audits, claims, disputes, enforcement actions, litigation, arbitration or other legal proceedings
could require us to pay potentially large damage awards and could be costly to defend, which would
adversely affect our cash balances and profitability, and could damage our reputation.

• Our business and operations expose us to numerous legal and regulatory requirements, and any violation

of these requirements could harm our business.

• Cybersecurity breaches and other information security incidents could negatively impact our business and
financial results, impair our ability to effectively provide our services to our clients and cause harm to our
reputation or competitive position.

•

Internal system or service failures, or failures in the systems or services of third parties on which we rely,
could disrupt our business and impair our ability to effectively provide our services and products to our
customers, which could damage our reputation and adversely affect our revenues and profitability.

• Customer systems failures could damage our reputation and adversely affect our revenues and profitability.

• Our success depends, in part, on our ability to work with complex and rapidly changing technologies to

meet the needs of our customers.

• We have made and continue to make acquisitions, investments, joint ventures and divestitures that involve

numerous risks and uncertainties.

• We cannot assure you that we will continue to pay dividends on our common stock.

•

Provisions in our charter documents and under Delaware law could delay or prevent transactions that many
stockholders may favor.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 16

PART I

Industry and Economic Risks

We depend on government agencies as our primary customers and if our reputation or relationships with
these agencies were harmed, our future revenues and growth prospects could be adversely affected.

We generated 87% of our total revenues during fiscal 2020 and 2019 and 85% of our total revenues during fiscal
2018 from contracts with the U.S. government (including all branches of the U.S. military), either as a prime
contractor or a subcontractor to other contractors engaged in work for the U.S. government. We expect to continue
to derive most of our revenues from work performed under U.S. government contracts. Our reputation and
relationship with the U.S. government, and in particular with the agencies of the DoD and the U.S. Intelligence
Community, are key factors in maintaining and growing our revenues. Negative press reports or publicity, regardless
of accuracy, which could pertain to employee or subcontractor misconduct, conflicts of interest, poor contract
performance, deficiencies in services, reports, products or other deliverables, information security breaches or other
aspects of our business, could harm our reputation, particularly with these agencies. Due to the sensitive nature of
our work and our confidentiality obligations to our customers, we may be unable to or limited in our ability to
respond to such negative publicity, which could also harm our reputation and our business. If our reputation is
negatively affected, certain customers could cease to do business with us and our ability to hire or retain employees
and our standing in professional communities, to which we contribute and from which we receive expert knowledge,
could be diminished. If any of the foregoing occurs, the amount of business with the U.S. government and other
customers could decrease and our business, future revenues, financial condition and growth prospects could be
adversely affected.

Revenues under contracts with the DoD and U.S. Intelligence Community, either as a prime contractor or
subcontractor to other contractors, represented approximately 49% of our total revenues for fiscal 2020 and 48% of
our total revenues for fiscal 2019 and 2018. Levels of U.S. government and DoD spending are difficult to predict and
subject to significant risk. Laws and plans adopted by the U.S. government relating to, along with pressures on and
uncertainty surrounding the U.S. federal budget, potential changes in budgetary priorities and defense spending
levels, sequestration, the appropriations process and the permissible federal debt limit, could adversely affect the
funding for individual programs and delay purchasing or payment decisions by our customers. Considerable
uncertainty exists regarding how future budget and program decisions will unfold, including the defense spending
priorities of the U.S. Presidential Administration and Congress, and what challenges budget reductions will present
for us and our industry generally.

Current U.S. government spending levels for defense-related or other programs may not be sustained and future
spending and program authorizations may not increase or may decrease or shift to programs in areas in which we
do not provide services or are less likely to be awarded contracts. Such changes in spending authorizations and
budgetary priorities may occur as a result of uncertainty surrounding the federal budget, increasing political
pressure and legislation, shifts in spending priorities from defense-related or other programs as a result of
competing demands for federal funds, the number and intensity of military conflicts or other factors. In the event
government funding relating to our contracts with the U.S. government or DoD becomes unavailable, or is reduced
or delayed, or planned orders are reduced, our contract or subcontract under such programs may be terminated or
adjusted by the U.S. government or the prime contractor, if applicable. Our operating results could also be adversely
affected by spending caps or changes in the budgetary priorities of the U.S. government or the DoD, as well as
delays in program starts or the award of contracts or task orders under contracts.

The U.S. government also conducts periodic reviews of U.S. defense strategies and priorities, which may shift DoD
or other budgetary priorities, reduce overall U.S. government spending or delay contract or task order awards for
defense-related or other programs from which we would otherwise expect to derive a significant portion of our future
revenues. In addition, changes to the federal or DoD acquisition system and contracting models could affect
whether and how we pursue certain opportunities and the terms under which we are able to do so. A significant
decline in overall U.S. government spending, including in the areas of national security, intelligence and homeland
security, a significant shift in its spending priorities, the substantial reduction or elimination of particular defense-
related programs or significant delays in contract or task order awards for large programs could adversely affect our
future revenues and results of operations and limit our growth prospects.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 17

PART I

The funding of U.S. government programs is subject to an annual congressional budget authorization and
appropriations process. In years when the U.S. government does not complete its appropriations before the
beginning of the new fiscal year on October 1, government operations are typically funded pursuant to a "continuing
resolution," which allows federal government agencies to operate at spending levels approved in the previous
appropriations cycle, but does not authorize new spending initiatives. When the U.S. government operates under a
continuing resolution, delays can occur in the procurement of the products, services and solutions that we provide
and may result in new initiatives being canceled. We have from time to time experienced a decline in revenues in
our fourth quarter as a result of this annual appropriations cycle, and we could experience similar declines in
revenues from future delays in the appropriations process. When the U.S. government fails to complete its
appropriations process or to provide for a continuing resolution, a full or partial federal government shutdown may
result. A federal government shutdown could, in turn, result in our incurrence of substantial labor or other costs
without reimbursement under customer contracts, the delay or cancellation of key programs or the delay of contract
payments, which could have a negative effect on our cash flows and adversely affect our future results of
operations. For many programs, Congress appropriates funds on an annual fiscal year basis even though the
program performance period may extend over several years. Consequently, programs are often partially funded
initially and additional funds are committed only as Congress makes further appropriations. If we incur costs in
excess of funds obligated on a contract, we may be at risk for reimbursement of those costs unless or until
additional funds are obligated to the contract. In addition, when supplemental appropriations are required to operate
the U.S. government or fund specific programs and passage of legislation needed to approve any supplemental
appropriations bill is delayed, the overall funding environment for our business could be adversely affected.

Due to the competitive process to obtain contracts and the likelihood of bid protests, we may be unable to
achieve or sustain revenue growth and profitability.

We expect that a majority of the business that we seek in the foreseeable future will be awarded through a
competitive bidding process. The U.S. government has increasingly relied on contracts that are subject to a
continuing competitive bidding process, including GSA Schedule and other multi-award contracts, which has
resulted in greater competition and increased pricing pressure. The competitive bidding process involves substantial
costs and a number of risks, including significant cost and managerial time to prepare bids and proposals for
contracts that may not be awarded to us, may be split among competitors or that may be awarded but for which we
do not receive meaningful task orders, and to the risk of inaccurately estimating the resources and costs that will be
required to fulfill any contract we win.

Following contract award, we may encounter significant expense, delay, contract modifications or even contract loss
as a result of our competitors protesting the award of contracts to us in competitive bidding. Any resulting loss or
delay of start-up and funding of work under protested contract awards may adversely affect our revenues and/or
profitability. In addition, multi-award contracts require that we make sustained post-award efforts to obtain task
orders under the contract. As a result, we may not be able to obtain these task orders or recognize revenues under
these multi-award contracts. We are also experiencing increased competition generally which impacts our ability to
obtain contracts; see the risk factor “We face intense competition that can impact our ability to obtain contracts and
therefore affect our future revenues and growth prospects.” Our failure to compete effectively in this procurement
environment would adversely affect our revenues and/or profitability.

Many of the U.S. government programs in which we participate as a contractor or subcontractor extend for several
years and include one or more base years and one or more option years. These programs are normally funded on
an annual basis. Under our contracts, the U.S. government generally has the right to not exercise options to extend
or expand our contracts and may otherwise terminate, cancel, modify or curtail our contracts at its convenience. Any
decisions by the U.S. government to not exercise contract options or to terminate, cancel, modify or curtail our
major programs or contracts would adversely affect our revenues, revenue growth and profitability.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 18

PART I

We have experienced and continue to experience periodic performance issues under certain of our contracts. Some
of our contracts involve the development of complex systems and products to achieve challenging customer goals
in a competitive procurement environment. As a result, we sometimes experience technological or other
performance difficulties, which have in the past and may in the future result in delays, cost overruns and failures in
our performance of these contracts. If a government customer terminates a contract for default, we may be exposed
to liability, including for excess costs incurred by the customer in procuring undelivered services and products from
another source. Depending on the nature and value of the contract, a performance issue or termination for default
could cause our actual results to differ from those anticipated and could harm our reputation.

We face intense competition that can impact our ability to obtain contracts and therefore affect our future
revenues and growth prospects.

Our business is highly competitive and we compete with larger companies that have greater name recognition,
financial resources and a larger technical staff. We also compete with smaller, more specialized companies that are
able to concentrate their resources on particular areas. Additionally, we compete with the U.S. government’s own
capabilities and federal non-profit contract research centers.

The markets in which we operate are characterized by rapidly changing technology and the needs of our customers
change and evolve regularly. Accordingly, our success depends on our ability to invest in and develop services and
products that address these changing needs and to provide people and technology needed to deliver these services
and products. To remain competitive, we must consistently provide superior service, technology and performance
on a cost-effective basis to our customers while understanding customer priorities and maintaining customer
relationships. Our competitors may be able to provide our customers with different or greater capabilities or
technologies or better contract terms than we can provide, including technical qualifications, past contract
experience, geographic presence, price and the availability of qualified professional personnel. Some of our
competitors have made or could make acquisitions of businesses, or establish teaming or other agreements among
themselves or third parties, that allow them to offer more competitive and comprehensive solutions. As a result of
such acquisitions or arrangements, our current or potential competitors may be able to accelerate the adoption of
new technologies that better address customer needs, devote greater resources to bring these products and
services to market, initiate or withstand substantial price competition or develop and expand their product and
service offerings more quickly than we do. These competitive pressures in our market or our failure to compete
effectively may result in fewer orders, reduced revenue and margins and loss of market share. In addition, it is
possible that industry consolidation may impact customers’ perceptions of the viability of smaller or even mid-size
software firms and consequently customers’ willingness to purchase from such firms.

Legal and Regulatory Risks

Our failure to comply with a variety of complex procurement rules and regulations could result in our being
liable for penalties, including termination of our U.S. government contracts, disqualification from bidding
on future U.S. government contracts and suspension or debarment from U.S. government contracting.

We must comply with laws and regulations relating to the formation, administration and performance of U.S.
government contracts, which affect how we do business with our customers. Such laws and regulations may
potentially impose added costs on our business and our failure to comply with them may lead to civil or criminal
penalties, termination of our U.S. government contracts, or suspension or debarment from contracting with federal
agencies. Some significant laws and regulations that affect us include:

•

the FAR and supplements, which regulate the formation, administration and performance of U.S.
government contracts;

the Truth in Negotiations Act, which requires certification and disclosure of cost and pricing data in
connection with certain contract negotiations;

the Procurement Integrity Act, which regulates access to competitor bid and proposal information and
government source selection information and our ability to provide compensation to certain former
government officials;

the Civil False Claims Act, which provides for substantial civil penalties for violations, including for
submission of a false or fraudulent claim to the U.S. government for payment or approval;

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 19

PART I

•

the False Statements Act, which imposes civil and criminal liability for making false statements to the U.S.
government; and

the U.S. government CAS, which imposes accounting requirements that govern our right to reimbursement
under certain cost-based U.S. government contracts.

For additional background on the regulations that apply to our business and the related compliance risks, see
“Regulation” within Item 1 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K and the risk factor “Our business is subject to
governmental review and investigation, which could adversely affect our financial position, operating results and
growth prospects."

The FAR and many of our U.S. government contracts contain organizational conflict of interest clauses that may
limit our ability to compete for or perform certain other contracts or other types of services for particular customers.
Organizational conflicts of interest arise when we engage in activities that may make us unable to render impartial
assistance or advice to the U.S. government, impair our objectivity in performing contract work or provide us with an
unfair competitive advantage. A conflict of interest issue that precludes our competition for or performance on a
significant program or contract could harm our prospects.

The U.S. government may adopt new contract rules and regulations or revise its procurement practices in a
manner adverse to us at any time.

Our industry has experienced, and we expect it will continue to experience, significant changes to business
practices as a result of an increased focus on affordability, efficiencies and recovery of costs, among other items.
U.S. government agencies may face restrictions or pressure regarding the type and amount of services that they
may obtain from private contractors. Legislation, regulations and initiatives dealing with procurement reform,
mitigation of potential conflicts of interest and environmental responsibility or sustainability, as well as any resulting
shifts in the buying practices of U.S. government agencies, such as increased usage of fixed-price contracts,
multiple-award contracts and small business set-aside contracts, could have adverse effects on government
contractors, including us. Any of these changes could impair our ability to obtain new contracts or renew our existing
contracts when customers recompete those contracts. Any new contracting requirements or procurement methods
could be costly or administratively difficult for us to implement and could adversely affect our future revenues,
profitability and prospects.

U.S. government contractors (including their subcontractors and others with whom they do business) operate in a
highly regulated environment and are routinely audited and reviewed by the U.S. government and its agencies,
including the DCAA, DCMA, the DoD Inspector General and others. These agencies review a contractor's
performance on government contracts, cost structure, indirect rates and pricing practices and compliance with
applicable contracting and procurement laws, regulations, terms and standards, as well as the adequacy of our
systems and processes in meeting government requirements. They also review the adequacy of the contractor’s
compliance with government standards for its business systems, including a contractor's accounting system, earned
value management system, estimating system, materials management and accounting system, property
management system and purchasing system.

Both contractors and the U.S. government agencies conducting these audits and reviews have come under
increased scrutiny. As a result, the current audits and reviews have become more rigorous and the standards to
which we are held are being more strictly interpreted, increasing the likelihood of an audit or review resulting in an
adverse outcome.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 20

PART I

A finding of significant control deficiencies in our system audits or other reviews can result in decremented billing
rates to our U.S. government customers until the control deficiencies are corrected and our remediations are
accepted by the DCMA. Government audits and reviews may conclude that our practices are not consistent with
applicable laws and regulations and result in adjustments to contract costs and mandatory customer refunds. Such
adjustments can be applied retroactively, which could result in significant customer refunds. Our receipt of adverse
audit findings or the failure to obtain an "approved" determination of our various business systems from the
responsible U.S. government agency could significantly and adversely affect our business, including our ability to
bid on new contracts and our competitive position in the bidding process. A determination of non-compliance with
applicable contracting and procurement laws, regulations and standards could also result in the U.S. government
imposing penalties and sanctions against us, including reductions of the value of contracts, contract modifications or
termination, withholding of payments, the loss of export/import privileges, administrative or civil judgements and
liabilities, criminal judgements or convictions, liabilities and consent or other voluntary decrees or agreements, other
sanctions, the assessment of penalties, fines or compensatory, treble or other damages or non-monetary relief or
actions, suspension or debarment, suspension of payments and increased government scrutiny that could
negatively impact our reputation, delay or adversely affect our ability to invoice and receive timely payment on
contracts, perform contracts or compete for contracts with the U.S. government.

As of January 1, 2021, indirect cost audits by the DCAA remain open for fiscal 2015 and subsequent fiscal years.
Although we have recorded contract revenues based upon our estimate of costs that we believe will be approved
upon final audit or review, we cannot predict the outcome of any ongoing or future audits or reviews and
adjustments and, if future adjustments exceed our estimates, our profitability may be adversely affected.

Our business is subject to governmental review and investigation, which could adversely affect our
financial position, operating results and growth prospects.

We are routinely subject to governmental investigations relating to compliance with various laws and regulations
with respect to our role as a contractor to federal, state and local government customers and in connection with
performing services in countries outside the U.S. If a review or investigation identifies improper or illegal activities,
we may be subject to disgorgement of profits, fines, damages, litigation, civil or criminal penalties, exclusion from
sales channels or sales opportunities, injunctions or administrative sanctions, including the termination of contracts,
the triggering of price reduction clauses, suspension of payments, suspension or debarment from doing business
with governmental agencies or other consequences. We may suffer harm to our reputation if allegations of
impropriety are made against us, which would impair our ability to win new contract awards or receive contract
renewals. Penalties and sanctions are not uncommon in our industry. If we incur a material penalty or administrative
sanction or otherwise suffer harm to our reputation, our revenues, profitability, cash position and future prospects
could be adversely affected. More generally, increases in scrutiny and investigations from government
organizations, legislative bodies or agencies into business practices and into major programs supported by
contractors may lead to increased legal costs and may harm our reputation, revenues, profitability and growth
prospects.

Investigations, audits, claims, disputes, enforcement actions, litigation, arbitration or other legal
proceedings could require us to pay potentially large damage awards and could be costly to defend, which
would adversely affect our cash balances and profitability, and could damage our reputation.

We are subject to a number of lawsuits and claims described in "Note 24—Contingencies" of the notes to the
consolidated financial statements contained within this Annual Report on Form 10-K, as may be updated in our
future filings with the SEC, including our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. We are also subject to, and may become
a party to, a variety of other litigation, claims, investigations, audits, enforcement actions, arbitrations or other legal
proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of our business. Adverse judgments or settlements in
some or all of these legal disputes may result in significant monetary damages, penalties or injunctive relief against
us. Any claims or litigation could be costly to defend, and even if we are successful or if fully indemnified or insured,
could damage our reputation and make it more difficult to compete effectively or obtain adequate insurance in the
future. In addition, responding to any action may result in a significant diversion of management's attention and
resources. Litigation and other claims, including those described in "Note 24—Contingencies," are subject to
inherent uncertainties and management’s view of these matters may change in the future.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 21

PART I

Our business and operations expose us to numerous legal and regulatory requirements, and any violation
of these requirements could harm our business.

We are subject to numerous state, federal and international laws and directives and regulations in the U.S. and
abroad that involve matters central to our business, including data privacy and protection, employment and labor
relations, immigration, taxation, anti-corruption, anti-bribery, import-export controls, trade restrictions, internal and
disclosure control obligations, securities regulation and anti-competition. Compliance with diverse and changing
legal requirements is costly, time-consuming and requires significant resources. We also conduct business in certain
identified growth areas, such as health information technology, energy and environmental services, which are highly
regulated and may expose us to increased compliance risk. Violations of one or more of these diverse legal
requirements in the conduct of our business could result in significant fines and other damages, criminal sanctions
against us or our officers, prohibitions on doing business and damage to our reputation. Violations of these
regulations or contractual obligations related to regulatory compliance in connection with the performance of
customer contracts could also result in liability for significant monetary damages, fines and/or criminal prosecution,
unfavorable publicity and other reputational damage, restrictions on our ability to compete for certain work
and allegations by our customers that we have not performed our contractual obligations.

Our business is subject to complex and evolving laws and regulations regarding privacy and data security
which could subject us to investigations, claims or monetary penalties against us, require us to make
changes to our business practices or otherwise adversely affect our revenues and profitability.

We are subject to a variety of international, federal, state and local laws and regulations in the U.S. and abroad
relating to privacy, data security, protection, storage, retention, transfer and disposal, technology protection and
personal information. Foreign laws and regulations in these areas can impose different obligations or be more
restrictive than those in the U.S. These laws and regulations, which, depending on the regime, may be enforced by
private parties or government entities, are constantly evolving and may be subject to significant change in the
future. In addition, the application, interpretation and enforcement of these laws and regulations are often uncertain,
particularly in new and rapidly evolving areas of technology, and may be interpreted and applied inconsistently from
country to country and inconsistently with our current policies and practices.

As a contractor supporting defense and national security clients, we are also subject to certain additional regulatory
compliance requirements relating to data privacy and cybersecurity. Under DFARS and other federal regulations,
certain of our networks and information technology systems are required to comply with the security and privacy
controls in National Institute of Standards and Technology Special Publications. To the extent that we do not comply
with the applicable security and control requirements, unauthorized access or disclosure of sensitive information
could potentially result in a contract termination, which could materially and adversely affect our business and
financial results and lead to reputational harm. We are also subject to the DoD Cybersecurity Maturity Model
Certification (“CMMC”) requirements, which requires all contractors to receive specific third-party certifications
relating to specified cybersecurity standards in order to be eligible for contract awards. The DoD expects that all
new contracts will be required to comply with the CMMC by 2026, with initial requests for information beginning in
June 2020 and requests for proposal beginning in September 2020. We are in the process of evaluating our
readiness and preparing for the CMMC, but to the extent we are unable to achieve certification in advance of
contract awards that specify the requirement, we will be unable to bid on such contract awards or on follow-on
awards for existing work with the DoD, depending on the level of standard as required for each solicitation, which
could adversely impact our revenue and profitability. In addition, any obligations that may be imposed on us under
the CMMC may be different from or in addition to those otherwise required by applicable laws and regulations,
which may cause additional expense for compliance.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 22

PART I

Any failure or perceived failure by us, our service providers, suppliers, subcontractors or other business partners to
comply with international, federal, state or local laws and regulations in these areas could result in regulatory
actions or lawsuits against us, legal liability, fines, damages and other costs. We may also incur substantial
expenses in implementing and maintaining compliance with such laws. For example, the European Union's ("EU’s")
General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), which took effect in May 2018, has created new compliance
obligations for companies that process data of EU data subjects, which require investment into ongoing data
protection activities and documentation requirements, and creates the potential for significantly increased fines for
noncompliance. In the U.S., the California Consumer Protection Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”), which took effect on
January 1, 2020, provides new consumer privacy rights to natural persons residing in California by regulating the
processing of personal information of California residents and increasing the obligations on businesses in
connection with such activities. Additionally, a new privacy law, the California Privacy Rights Act (“CPRA”), was
approved by California voters in the election on November 3, 2020 and will take effect in most material respects on
January 1, 2023. The CPRA modifies the CCPA significantly, including by expanding consumers’ rights with respect
to certain sensitive personal information and creating a new state agency to oversee implementation and
enforcement efforts. It is possible that the CCPA or similar laws, now or in the future, will be deemed applicable to
some aspects of our business, which would impose new compliance obligations and require additional investment
into privacy law compliance and data protection activities on an ongoing basis. Any obligations that may be imposed
on us under the CCPA, the CPRA or similar laws may be different from or in addition to those required by the GDPR
or other relevant foreign laws, which may cause additional expense for compliance across various jurisdictions.
Various U.S., EU and other foreign privacy or data security laws, regulations, directives, policies, industry standards
or legal obligations that may be relevant to our business also impose obligations to maintain a cybersecurity
program at certain levels of quality, as well as obligations to give notice to affected individuals and to certain
regulators in the event of a data breach.

The overarching complexity of privacy and data security laws and regulations around the world pose a compliance
challenge that could manifest in costs, damages or liability in other forms as a result of failure to implement proper
programmatic controls, failure to adhere to those controls or the malicious or inadvertent breach of applicable
privacy and data security requirements by us, our employees, our business partners (including our service
providers, suppliers or subcontractors) or our customers. We also expect that there will continue to be new
proposed laws and regulations concerning privacy and data security, and we cannot yet determine the impact such
future laws, regulations and standards, or amendments to or re-interpretations of, existing laws and regulations,
industry standards or other obligations may have on our business.

Business and Operational Risks

The extent to which our business will be adversely affected by COVID-19 or other health epidemics,
pandemics and similar outbreaks is highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.

The outbreak and global spread of COVID-19, and the preventative or protective actions that governments,
corporations, individuals and we are taking and may continue to take in an effort to limit the impact of COVID-19,
have resulted in a period of business disruption and increased economic uncertainty. The spread of COVID-19 has
caused us to modify our business practices (including employee travel, access to customer sites, employee and
contractor remote work and cancellation of physical participation in meetings, events and conferences), and we may
take further actions as may be required by government authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of
our employees, customers and business partners. There is no certainty that such measures will be sufficient to
mitigate the risks posed by COVID-19 or otherwise be satisfactory to government authorities. If significant portions
of our workforce are unable to work effectively, including because of illness, quarantines, government actions,
facility closures or other restrictions due to COVID-19, our operations and results will likely be impacted.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 23

PART I

Government agencies are our primary customers and the long-term impact of increased government spending in
response to COVID-19 is uncertain. This could result in a re-evaluation of U.S. government spending levels and
priorities, which could impact our business performance. The situation surrounding COVID-19 remains fluid and the
likelihood of an impact on us that could be material increases the longer the virus impacts activity levels in the
locations in which we operate. In particular, a delay in wide distribution of vaccines, or a lack of public acceptance of
vaccines, could lead people to continue to self-isolate and not participate in the economy at pre-pandemic levels for
a prolonged period of time. Further, even if vaccines are widely distributed and accepted, there can be no
assurance that vaccines will ultimately be successful in limiting or stopping the spread of COVID-19. Even after
COVID-19 has subsided, we may experience materially adverse impacts on our business as a result of the
pandemic's global economic impact, including any recession that is occurring or may occur in the future. For
example, the global spread of COVID-19 has resulted in a substantial decline in demand for air travel, which has
adversely impacted the demand for products and services related to our airport security detection and automation
business. We are not able to predict whether COVID-19 will result in permanent changes to air travel behaviors,
including a permanent reduction in business travel as a result of the increased use of teleconferencing products
and, more broadly, a general reluctance to travel by consumers, each of which has, and could continue to, impact
our business. Further, new contract awards have been and may continue to be delayed and our ability to perform on
our existing contracts has been and may continue to be delayed or impaired, which will negatively impact our
revenues. In addition, our program costs have increased and may continue to increase as a result of COVID-19,
and these cost increases may not be fully recoverable or adequately covered by insurance, or equitable
adjustments to contract prices or reimbursement of costs under Section 3610 of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and
Economic Security Act, which could impact our profitability. The continued spread of COVID-19 has had and may
continue to have similar negative impacts on our customers, subcontractors, service providers and suppliers,
causing delay or limiting their ability to perform, including in making timely payments to us. Any resulting financial
impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time but may materially and adversely affect our business, financial
condition, results of operations and cash flows. The extent to which COVID-19 impacts our results will depend on
future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information that may
emerge concerning the severity and duration of COVID-19 and actions to contain it or treat its impact, among
others. In addition, to the extent COVID-19 or any worsening of the global business and economic environment as a
result adversely affects our business and financial results, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the
other risks described herein.

Misconduct of employees, subcontractors, agents, suppliers, business partners or joint ventures and
others working on our behalf could cause us to lose existing contracts or customers and adversely affect
our ability to obtain new contracts and customers and could have a significant adverse impact on our
business and reputation.

Misconduct could include fraud or other improper activities such as falsifying time or other records and violations of
laws, such as the Anti-Kickback Act, and the failure to comply with our policies and procedures or with federal, state
or local government procurement regulations, regulations regarding the use and safeguarding of classified or other
protected information, legislation regarding the pricing of labor and other costs in government contracts, laws and
regulations relating to environmental, health or safety matters, bribery of foreign government officials, import-export
control, lobbying or similar activities and any other applicable laws or regulations. Any data loss or information
security lapses resulting in the compromise of personal information or the improper use or disclosure of sensitive or
classified information could result in claims, remediation costs, regulatory investigations or sanctions against us,
corruption or disruption of our systems or those of our customers, impairment of our ability to provide services to our
customers, loss of current and future contracts, indemnity obligations, serious harm to our reputation and other
potential liabilities. See also the risk factor “Cybersecurity breaches and other information security incidents could
negatively impact our business and financial results, impair our ability to effectively provide our services to our
clients and cause harm to our reputation or competitive position.”

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 24

PART I

Although we have implemented policies, procedures, training and other compliance controls to prevent and detect
these activities, these precautions may not prevent all misconduct, and as a result, we could face unknown risks or
losses. This risk of improper conduct may increase as we continue to expand and do business with new partners. In
the ordinary course of our business we form and are members of joint ventures (meaning joint efforts or business
arrangements of any type). We may be unable to prevent misconduct or violations of applicable laws by these joint
ventures (including their officers, directors and employees) or our partners. Our failure to comply with applicable
laws or regulations or misconduct by any of our employees, subcontractors, agents, suppliers, business partners or
joint ventures and others working on our behalf could damage our reputation and subject us to administrative, civil
or criminal investigations and enforcement actions, fines and penalties, restitution or other damages, loss of security
clearance, loss of current and future customer contracts, loss of privileges and other sanctions, including
suspension or debarment from contracting with federal, state or local government agencies, any of which would
adversely affect our business, reputation and our future results.

A failure to attract, train, retain and motivate skilled employees, including our management team, would
adversely affect our ability to execute our strategy and may disrupt our operations.

Our business involves the development of tailored services and solutions for our customers, a process that relies
heavily upon the expertise and services of our employees. Our continued success and ability to compete in a highly
competitive environment depend on our ability to recruit and retain highly trained and skilled science, engineering,
technical, math and professional personnel. Competition for skilled personnel is intense and competitors in our
industry and others in the private sector aggressively recruit key employees. In addition, many U.S. government
programs require contractors to have security clearances. Depending on the level of required clearance, security
clearances can be difficult and time-consuming to obtain and personnel with security clearances are in great
demand. Particularly in highly specialized areas, it has become more difficult to retain employees and meet all of
our needs for employees in a timely manner, which may affect our growth. Although we intend to continue to devote
significant resources to recruit, train and retain qualified employees, we may not be able to attract, effectively train
and retain these employees. Any failure to do so could impair our ability to perform our contractual obligations
efficiently and timely meet our customers’ needs and win new business, which could adversely affect our future
results. In addition, certain personnel may be required to receive various security clearances in order to work on
certain customer engagements or to perform certain tasks. Necessary security clearances may be delayed or not
obtained, which may negatively impact our ability to perform on such engagements contracts in a timely manner or
at all.

In addition to attracting and retaining qualified engineering, technical and professional personnel, we believe that
our success will also depend on the continued employment of a highly qualified and experienced senior
management team and its ability to retain existing business and generate new business and the continued
development of new members of senior management. Our senior management team is important to our business
because personal reputations and individual business relationships are a critical element of retaining and obtaining
customer contracts in our industry, particularly with agencies performing classified operations. An inability to retain
appropriately qualified and experienced senior executives or our failure to continue to develop new members could
cause us to lose customers or new business opportunities.

We may not realize as revenues the full amounts reflected in our backlog, which could adversely affect our
expected future revenues and growth prospects.

As of January 1, 2021, our total backlog was $31.9 billion, including $6.6 billion in funded backlog. Due to the U.S.
government's ability to not exercise contract options or to terminate, modify or curtail our programs or contracts and
the rights of our non-U.S. government customers to cancel contracts and purchase orders in certain circumstances,
we may realize less than expected revenues or may never realize revenues from some of the contracts that are
included in our backlog. Our unfunded backlog, in particular, contains management’s estimate of amounts expected
to be realized on unfunded contract work that may never be realized as revenues. If we fail to realize as revenues
amounts included in our backlog, our future revenues, profitability and growth prospects could be adversely
affected.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 25

PART I

Our earnings and profitability may vary based on the mix of our contracts and may be adversely affected by
our failure to accurately estimate and manage costs, time and resources.

We generate revenues under various types of contracts, which include cost-reimbursement, FP-IF, T&M, FP-LOE
and FFP contracts. Our earnings and profitability may vary materially depending on changes in the proportionate
amount of revenues derived from each type of contract, the nature of services or products provided, as well as the
achievement of performance objectives and the stage of performance at which the right to receive fees, particularly
under incentive-fee and award-fee contracts, is finally determined. Cost-reimbursement and T&M contracts are
generally less profitable than FFP contracts. Our operating results in any period may also be affected, positively or
negatively, by customers' variable purchasing patterns of our more profitable proprietary products.

Our profitability is adversely affected when we incur contract costs that we cannot bill to our customers. To varying
degrees, each of our contract types involves some risk that we could underestimate the costs and resources
necessary to fulfill the contract. While FFP contracts allow us to benefit from cost savings, these contracts also
increase our exposure to the risk of cost overruns. Revenues from FFP contracts represented approximately 36% of
our total revenues for fiscal 2020. When making proposals on these types of contracts, we rely heavily on our
estimates of costs and timing to complete the associated projects, as well as assumptions regarding technical
issues. In each case, our failure to accurately estimate costs or the resources and technology needed to perform
our contracts or to effectively manage and control our costs during performance could result, and in some instances
has resulted, in reduced profits or in losses. More generally, any increased or unexpected costs or unanticipated
delays in the performance of our contracts, including costs and delays caused by contractual disputes or other
factors outside of our control, such as performance failures of our subcontractors, natural disasters or other force
majeure events, could make our contracts less profitable than expected or unprofitable.

We use estimates in recognizing revenues, and if we make changes to estimates used in recognizing
revenues, our profitability may be adversely affected.

We recognize revenue on our service-based contracts primarily over time as there is continuous transfer of control
to the customer over the duration of the contract as we perform the promised services, which generally requires
estimates of total costs at completion, fees earned on the contract, or both. This estimation process, particularly due
to the technical nature of the services performed and the long-term nature of certain contracts, is complex and
involves significant judgment. Adjustments to original estimates are often required as work progresses, experience
is gained and additional information becomes known, even though the scope of the work required under the
contract may not change. Any adjustment as a result of a change in estimate is recognized as events become
known. Changes in the underlying assumptions, circumstances or estimates could result in adjustments that may
adversely affect our future financial results.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 26

PART I

Cybersecurity breaches and other information security incidents could negatively impact our business and
financial results, impair our ability to effectively provide our services to our clients and cause harm to our
reputation or competitive position.

As a government contractor and a provider of information technology services operating in multiple regulated
industries and geographies, we and our service providers, suppliers and subcontractors collect, store, transmit and
otherwise process sensitive information, including personally identifiable information, protected health information,
personnel information, classified information, contractor unclassified information and financial information,
concerning our business, employees and customers. Therefore, we are continuously exposed to unauthorized
attempts to compromise such sensitive information through cyber-attacks, insider threats and other information
security threats, including physical break-ins and malicious insiders. Any electronic or physical break-in or other
security breach or compromise of our information technology systems and networks or facilities, or those of our
service providers, suppliers or subcontractors, may jeopardize the security of information stored or transmitted
through these systems and networks or stored in those facilities. This could lead to disruptions in mission-critical
systems, unauthorized release of confidential or otherwise protected information and corruption of data or systems.
We are also increasingly subject to customer-driven cybersecurity certification requirements, which are expected to
be necessary to win future contracts. Such security incidents also could result in liability or trigger other obligations
under such contracts or increase the difficulty of winning future contracts. Many statutory requirements, both in the
U.S. and abroad, also include obligations for companies to provide notice of data security incidents involving certain
types of data (including obligations to notify affected individuals and regulators in the event of security breaches
involving certain personal data), which could result from breaches experienced by us or our service providers,
suppliers or subcontractors.

Although we have implemented policies, procedures and controls to protect against, detect and mitigate these
threats and attacks, we and our service providers, suppliers and subcontractors have faced and continue to face
advanced and persistent attacks on our information systems. We cannot guarantee that future incidents will not
occur, and if an incident does occur, our incident response planning may not prove fully adequate and we may not
be able to successfully mitigate the impacts. Techniques used by others to gain unauthorized access to sensitive
information, or to disrupt systems and networks for economic or strategic gain, are constantly evolving, increasingly
sophisticated and increasingly difficult to detect and successfully defend against. These techniques include
cyberattacks (including covertly introducing ransomware, viruses, worms or other malware to our computers
and networks and denial of service attacks), phishing and impersonating authorized users, among others, and may
be perpetrated by internal bad actors, such as employees or contractors, or by third parties (including traditional
computer hackers, persons involved with well-funded organized crime or state-sponsored efforts).

We seek to detect and investigate all information security incidents and to prevent their occurrence, prolongation or
recurrence. We continue to invest in and improve our threat protection, detection and mitigation policies, procedures
and controls. In addition, we work with other companies in the industry and government participants on increased
awareness and enhanced protections against information security and malicious insider threats. However, because
of the evolving nature and sophistication of these security threats, which can be difficult to detect, there can be no
assurance that our policies, procedures and controls, or those of our service providers, suppliers or subcontractors,
have protected against, detected, mitigated or will detect, prevent or mitigate, any of these threats and we cannot
predict the full impact of any such past or future incident. We may be currently unaware of certain vulnerabilities or
lack the capability to detect them, which may allow them to persist in our information technology environment over
long periods of time and, even if discovered, our remediation efforts may not be completely successful.

We also may experience similar security threats to the information technology systems that we develop, install or
maintain under customer contracts. Although we work cooperatively with our customers and other business
partners, including our service providers, suppliers and subcontractors, to seek to minimize the potential for and
impact of cyberattacks and other security threats, we must rely on the safeguards put in place by those entities. See
also the risk factor “Internal system or service failures, or failures in the systems or services of third parties on which
we rely, could disrupt our business and impair our ability to effectively provide our services and products to our
customers, which could damage our reputation and adversely affect our revenues and profitability.”

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 27

PART I

The occurrence of any unauthorized access to, attacks on or security breaches of our or our service providers',
suppliers' or subcontractors' information technology infrastructure, systems or networks or data, could disrupt our
infrastructure, systems, networks or those of our customers, impair our ability to provide services to our customers
and may jeopardize the security of data collected, stored, transmitted or otherwise processed through our
information technology infrastructure, systems and networks. As a result, we could be exposed to claims, fines,
penalties, loss of revenues, product development delays, compromise, corruption or loss of confidential, proprietary
or sensitive information (including personal information or technical business information), contract terminations and
damages, remediation costs and other costs and expenses, regulatory investigations or sanctions, indemnity
obligations and other potential liabilities. Any of the foregoing could adversely affect our reputation, ability to win
work on sensitive contracts or loss of current and future contracts (including sensitive U.S. government contracts),
business operations and financial results. In addition, any remedial costs or other liabilities related to cyber or other
security threats may not be fully insured or indemnified by other means.

Any system or service disruptions, including those caused by ongoing projects to improve our information
technology systems and the delivery of services, whether through our shared services organization or outsourced
services, if not anticipated and appropriately mitigated, could materially and adversely affect our business including,
among other things, an adverse effect on our ability to perform on contracts, bill our customers for work performed
on our contracts, collect the amounts that have been billed and produce accurate financial statements in a timely
manner. We, and the service providers, suppliers and subcontractors on which we rely, are also subject to systems
failures, including network, software or hardware failures, whether caused by us, third-party service providers,
cybersecurity threats, malicious insiders, natural disasters, power shortages, terrorist attacks, pandemics or other
events, which could cause loss of data and interruptions or delays in our business, cause us to incur remediation
costs, subject us to claims and damage our reputation. In addition, the failure or disruption of our communications,
or those of our service providers, suppliers or subcontractors, could cause us to interrupt or suspend our operations
or otherwise adversely affect our business. Our property and business interruption insurance may be inadequate to
compensate us for all losses that may occur as a result of any system or operational failure or disruption and, as a
result, our future results could be adversely affected.

Our business is subject to disruption caused by natural disasters that could adversely affect our
profitability and our overall financial position.

We have significant operations located in regions that may be exposed to hurricanes, earthquakes, other damaging
storms, water levels, forest fires and other natural disasters. Our subcontractors and suppliers are also subject to
natural disasters that could affect their ability to deliver or perform under a contract, including as a result of
disruptions to their workforce and critical industrial infrastructure needed for normal business operations. Although
preventative measures may help to mitigate damage, the damage and disruption resulting from natural disasters
and delays in recovery may be significant.

If insurance or other risk transfer mechanisms are unavailable or insufficient to recover all costs or if we experience
a significant disruption to our business due to a natural disaster, it could adversely affect our financial position,
results of operations and cash flows.

Customer systems failures could damage our reputation and adversely affect our revenues and profitability.

Many of the systems and networks that we develop, install and maintain for our customers involve managing and
protecting personal information and information relating to national security and other sensitive government
functions. While we have programs designed to comply with relevant privacy and security laws and restrictions, if a
system or network that we develop, install or maintain were to fail or experience a security breach or service
interruption, whether caused by us, third-party service providers, cybersecurity threats or other events, we may
experience loss of revenue, remediation costs or face claims for damages or contract termination. Any such event
could cause serious harm to our reputation and prevent us from having access to or being eligible for further work
on such systems and networks. Our errors and omissions liability insurance may be inadequate to compensate us
for all of the damages that we may incur and, as a result, our future results could be adversely affected.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 28

PART I

Our success depends, in part, on our ability to work with complex and rapidly changing technologies to
meet the needs of our customers.

We design and develop technologically advanced and innovative products and services applied by our customers in
a variety of environments. The needs of our customers change and evolve regularly and in particular by complex
and rapidly changing technologies. Our success depends upon our ability to identify emerging technological trends,
develop technologically advanced, innovative and cost-effective products and services and market these products
and services to our customers. Our success also depends on our continued access to suppliers of important
technologies and components.

Many of our contracts contain performance obligations that require innovative design capabilities, are
technologically complex or are dependent upon factors not wholly within our control. Problems and delays in
development or delivery as a result of issues with respect to design, technology, licensing and patent rights, labor,
learning curve assumptions or materials and components could prevent us from achieving such contractual
requirements. Failure to meet these obligations could adversely affect our profitability and future prospects.

In addition, our offerings cannot be tested and proven in all situations and are otherwise subject to unforeseen
problems that could negatively affect revenue and profitability such as problems with quality and workmanship,
country of origin, delivery of subcontractor components or services and unplanned degradation of product
performance. Among the factors that may affect revenue and profits could be unforeseen costs and expenses not
covered by insurance or indemnification from the customer, diversion of management focus in responding to
unforeseen problems, loss of follow-on work, and, in the case of certain contracts, repayment to the government
customer of contract costs and fee payments we previously received.

If we are unable to work with complex and rapidly changing technologies successfully we may be unable to meet
the needs of our customers and our future success, revenue and results of operations could be adversely affected.

We have contracts with the U.S. government that are classified, which may limit investor insight into
portions of our business.

We derive a portion of our revenues from programs with the U.S. government and its agencies that are subject to
security restrictions (e.g., contracts involving classified information and classified programs), which preclude the
dissemination of information and technology that is classified for national security purposes under applicable law
and regulation. In general, access to classified information, technology, facilities or programs requires appropriate
personnel security clearances, is subject to additional contract oversight and potential liability and may also require
appropriate facility clearances and other specialized infrastructure. In the event of a security incident involving
classified information, technology, facilities, programs or personnel holding clearances, we may be subject to legal,
financial, operational and reputational harm. We are limited in our ability to provide information about these
classified programs, their risks or any disputes or claims relating to such programs. As a result, investors have less
insight into our classified business or our business overall. However, historically the business risks associated with
our work on classified programs have not differed materially from those of our other government contracts.

We have made and continue to make acquisitions, investments, joint ventures and divestitures that involve
numerous risks and uncertainties.

We selectively pursue strategic acquisitions, investments and joint ventures. These transactions require significant
investment of time and resources and may disrupt our business and distract our management from other
responsibilities. Even if successful, these transactions could reduce earnings for a number of reasons, including the
amortization of intangible assets, impairment charges, acquired operations that are not yet profitable or the payment
of additional consideration under earn-out arrangements if an acquisition performs better than expected.
Acquisitions, investments and joint ventures pose many other risks that could adversely affect our reputation,
operations or financial results, including:

•

we may not be able to identify, compete effectively for or complete suitable acquisitions and investments at
prices we consider attractive;

we may not be able to accurately estimate the financial effect of acquisitions and investments on our
business, and we may not realize anticipated synergies or acquisitions may not result in improved operating
performance;

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 29

PART I

•

we may not be able to successfully manage the integration process for acquisitions and the integration
process may divert management time and focus from operating our business;

acquired technologies, capabilities, products and service offerings, particularly those that are still in
development when acquired, may not perform as expected, may have defects or may not be integrated into
our business as expected;

we may have trouble retaining key employees and customers of an acquired business, including due to
cultural challenges, or otherwise integrating such businesses, such as incompatible accounting, information
management or other control systems, which could result in unforeseen difficulties;

we may assume material liabilities that were not identified as part of our due diligence or for which we are
unable to receive a purchase price adjustment or reimbursement through indemnification or there may be
other unanticipated write-offs or charges;

financial reporting, revenue recognition or other financial or control deficiencies of the acquired company
that we don't adequately address and that cause our reported results to be incorrect;

we may need to implement or improve controls, procedures and policies at a business that prior to the
acquisition may have lacked sufficiently effective controls, procedures and policies;

we may assume legal or regulatory risks, particularly with respect to smaller businesses that have immature
business processes and compliance programs, or we may face litigation with respect to the acquired
company, including claims from terminated employees, customers, former stockholders or other third
parties;

acquired entities or joint ventures may not achieve expected business growth or operate profitably, which
could adversely affect our operating income or operating margins, and we may be unable to recover
investments in any such acquisitions;

acquisitions, investments and joint ventures may require us to spend a significant amount of cash, to incur
debt, resulting in increased fixed payment obligations and could also result in covenants or other restrictions
on us, or to issue capital stock, resulting in dilution of ownership; and

we may not be able to effectively influence the operations of our joint ventures, or we may be exposed to
certain liabilities if our joint venture partners do not fulfill their obligations.

If our acquisitions, investments or joint ventures fail, perform poorly or their value is otherwise impaired for any
reason, including contractions in credit markets and global economic conditions, our business and financial results
could be adversely affected.

In addition, we periodically divest businesses, including businesses that are no longer a part of our ongoing
strategic plan. These divestitures similarly require significant investment of time and resources, may disrupt our
business, distract management from other responsibilities and may result in losses on disposal or continued
financial involvement in the divested business, including through indemnification, guarantee or other financial
arrangements, for a period of time following the transaction, which would adversely affect our financial results.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 30

PART I

Goodwill and other intangible assets represent approximately 60% of our total assets and any impairment
of these assets could negatively impact our results of operations.

Intangible assets with indefinite lives, including goodwill, are tested for impairment at least annually or whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Intangible assets with
finite lives are assessed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
value may not be recoverable. Examples of events or changes in circumstances indicating that the carrying value of
intangible assets may not be recoverable could include a significant adverse change in legal factors or in the
business climate, an adverse action or assessment by a regulator, unanticipated competition, loss of key personnel,
or a more-likely-than-not expectation that a reporting unit or a significant portion of a reporting unit will be sold or
otherwise disposed. We face continued uncertainty in our business environment due to the substantial fiscal and
economic challenges facing the U.S. government, our primary customer, as well as challenges in the commercial
healthcare industry, compounded by lower levels of U.S. government reimbursements, including reductions in
Medicare reimbursements which in turn impact hospital information technology spending. Adverse changes in fiscal
and economic conditions, such as the manner in which budget cuts are implemented, including sequestration, and
issues related to the nation’s debt ceiling, could adversely impact our future revenues and profitability. These
circumstances could result in an impairment of goodwill and/or other intangibles. Also, adverse equity market
conditions that result in a decline in market multiples and our stock price could result in an impairment of goodwill
and/or other intangibles. Any future impairment of goodwill or other intangible assets would have a negative impact
on our profitability and financial results.

We depend on our teaming arrangements and relationships with other contractors and subcontractors. If
we are not able to maintain these relationships, or if these parties fail to satisfy their obligations to us or the
customer, our revenues, profitability and growth prospects could be adversely affected.

We rely on our teaming relationships with other prime contractors and subcontractors, who are also often our
competitors in other contexts, in order to submit bids for large procurements or other opportunities where we believe
the combination of services and products provided by us and other companies will help us to win and perform the
contract. Our future revenues and growth prospects could be adversely affected if other contractors eliminate or
reduce their contract relationships with us, or if the U.S. government terminates or reduces these other contractors’
programs, does not award them new contracts or refuses to pay under a contract. Companies that do not have
access to U.S. government contracts may perform services as our subcontractor and that exposure could enhance
such companies’ prospect of securing a future position as a prime U.S. government contractor which could increase
competition for future contracts and impair our ability to perform on contracts.

We may have disputes with our subcontractors arising from, among other things, the quality and timeliness of work
performed by the subcontractor, customer concerns about the subcontractor, our failure to extend existing task
orders or issue new task orders under a subcontract, our hiring of a subcontractor’s personnel or the
subcontractor’s failure to comply with applicable law. Uncertain economic conditions heighten the risk of financial
stress of our subcontractors, which could adversely impact their ability to meet their contractual requirements to us.
If any of our subcontractors fail to timely meet their contractual obligations or have regulatory compliance or other
problems, our ability to fulfill our obligations as a prime contractor or higher tier subcontractor may be jeopardized.
Significant losses could arise in future periods and subcontractor performance deficiencies could result in our
termination for default. A termination for default could eliminate a revenue source, expose us to liability and have an
adverse effect on our ability to compete for future contracts and task orders, especially if the customer is an agency
of the U.S. government.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 31

PART I

Our services and operations sometimes involve using, handling or disposing of hazardous substances,
which could expose us to potentially significant liabilities.

Some of our services and operations involve the assessment or remediation of environmental hazards, as well as
the use, handling or disposal of hazardous substances. These activities and our operations generally subject us to
extensive foreign, federal, state and local environmental protection and health and safety laws and regulations,
which, among other things, require us to incur costs to comply with these regulations and could impose liability on
us for handling or disposing of hazardous substances. Furthermore, failure to comply with these environmental
protection and health and safety laws and regulations could result in civil, criminal, regulatory, administrative or
contractual sanctions, including fines, penalties or suspension or debarment from contracting with the U.S.
government. Our current and previous ownership and operation of real property also subjects us to environmental
protection laws, some of which hold current or previous owners or operators of businesses and real property liable
for hazardous substance releases, even if they did not know of and were not responsible for the releases. If we
have any violations of, or incur liabilities pursuant to these laws or regulations, our financial condition and operating
results could be adversely affected.

We could incur significant liabilities and suffer negative publicity if our inspection or detection systems fail
to detect bombs, explosives, weapons, contraband or other threats.

We design, develop, manufacture, sell, service and maintain various inspection systems and related integration and
automation systems that are designed to assist in the detection of bombs, explosives, weapons, contraband or
other threats. In some instances, we also train operators of such systems. Such systems utilize software algorithms
to interpret data produced by the system and to signal to the operator when a dangerous object or substance may
be present. Such algorithms are probabilistic in nature and are generally designed to meet requirements established
by regulatory agencies. Many of these systems require that an operator interpret an image of suspicious items
within a bag, parcel, container, vehicle or other vessel. Others signal to the operator that further investigation is
required. In either case, the training, reliability and competence of the customer's operator are crucial to the
detection of suspicious items. Nevertheless, if such a system were to fail to signal to an operator when an explosive
or other contraband was in fact present, resulting in significant damage, we could become the subject of significant
product liability claims.

There are many factors, some of which are beyond our control, which could result in the failure of our products to
help detect the presence of bombs, explosives, weapons, contraband or other threats. Some of these factors could
include inherent limitations in our systems and misuse or malfunction of our systems. The failure of our systems to
help detect the presence of any of these dangerous materials could lead to injury, death and extensive property
damage and may lead to product liability, professional liability or other claims against us. Further, if our security and
inspection systems fail to, or are perceived to have failed to, help detect a threat, we could experience negative
publicity and reputational harm, which could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Our insurance, customer indemnifications or other liability protections may be insufficient to protect us
from product and other liability claims or losses.

We maintain insurance coverage with third-party insurers as part of our overall risk management strategy and
because some of our contracts require us to maintain specific insurance coverage limits. However, not every risk or
liability is or can be protected by insurance, and, for those risks we insure, the limits of coverage we purchase or
that are reasonably obtainable in the market may not be sufficient to cover all actual losses or liabilities incurred. If
any of our third-party insurers fail, cancel our coverage or otherwise are unable to provide us with adequate
insurance coverage, then our overall risk exposure and our operational expenses would increase and the
management of our business operations would be disrupted. Our insurance may be insufficient to protect us from
significant product and other liability claims or losses. Moreover, there is a risk that commercially available liability
insurance will not continue to be available to us at a reasonable cost, if at all. If liability claims or losses exceed our
current or available insurance coverage, our business, financial position, operating results and prospects may be
harmed. Regardless of the adequacy of our liability insurance coverages, any significant claim may have an
adverse effect on our industry and market reputation, leading to a substantial decrease in demand for our products
and services and reduced revenues.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 32

PART I

In some circumstances we are entitled to certain legal protections or indemnifications from our customers through
contractual provisions, laws, regulations or otherwise. However, these protections are not always available, can be
difficult to obtain, are typically subject to certain terms or limitations, including the availability of funds, and may not
be sufficient to cover all losses or liabilities incurred.

We face risks associated with our international business.

Our international business operations may be subject to additional and different risks than our U.S. business. These
risks and challenges include:

•

failure to comply with U.S. government and foreign laws and regulations applicable to international
business, employment, privacy, data protection, information security or data transfer, could have an adverse
impact on our business with the U.S. government and could expose us to risks and costs of non-compliance
with such laws and regulations, in addition to administrative, civil or criminal penalties;

U.S. and foreign government import and export control requirements and regulations, including International
Traffic in Arms Regulations and the anti-boycott provisions of the U.S. Export Administration Act, technology
transfer restrictions and other administrative, legislative or regulatory actions that could materially interfere
with our ability to offer our products or services in certain countries;

increased risk for economic, legal or political changes that may adversely affect the performance of our
services, sale of our products or repatriation of our profits;

international transactions can involve increased financial and legal risks arising from foreign exchange rate
variability, imposition of tariffs or additional taxes, restrictive trade policies, longer payment cycles, any delay
or failure to collect amounts due to us and differing legal systems;

we provide services and products in support of U.S. government and other customers in countries with
governments that may be or may become unstable, which increases the risk of an incident resulting in injury
or loss of life, damage or destruction of property or inability to meet our contractual obligations; and

volatility in non-U.S. political and economic environments, including by way of examples, the potential
effects of COVID-19 and the U.K.'s departure from the EU.

In addition, we are subject to laws prohibiting improper payments and bribery, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt
Practices Act, the U.K. Bribery Act and similar foreign anti-corruption laws that generally prohibit companies and
their intermediaries from making improper payments or providing anything of value to improperly influence foreign
government officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business, or obtaining an unfair advantage. Our failure
to comply with these laws might subject us to civil and criminal penalties that might have a materially adverse
impact on our business operations and our financial position or results of operations.

Although our international operations have historically generated a small proportion of our revenues, we are seeking
to grow our international business, in which case these regulatory, geopolitical and other factors may have a greater
impact on our business in the future and could adversely affect our business.

We have only a limited ability to protect our intellectual property rights, which are important to our success.
Our failure to adequately obtain, maintain, protect and enforce our proprietary information and intellectual
property rights could adversely affect our competitive position.

We rely principally on trade secrets to protect much of our intellectual property in cases where we do not believe
that patent protection is appropriate or obtainable. However, trade secrets are difficult to protect and, despite our
efforts to protect our intellectual property and other proprietary rights, third parties may attempt to obtain, copy, use
or disclose our intellectual property or other proprietary information or technology without our authorization. In
addition to protection under intellectual property laws, we rely on confidentiality or license agreements that we
generally enter into with our corporate partners, employees, consultants, advisors, service providers, suppliers,
subcontractors and customers, and we generally attempt to limit access to and distribution of our proprietary
information. Although our employees and contractors are subject to confidentiality obligations and use restrictions,
this protection may be inadequate to deter or prevent them from infringing, misappropriating or otherwise violating
our confidential information, technology or other intellectual property or proprietary rights. Furthermore, non-
disclosure provisions can be difficult to enforce and, even if successfully enforced, may not be entirely effective.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 33

PART I

We may be unable to detect unauthorized use of our intellectual property or otherwise take appropriate steps to
enforce our rights. We may be required to expend significant resources and efforts to monitor and protect our
intellectual property and other proprietary rights, and we may conclude that, in at least some instances, the benefits
of protecting our intellectual property or other proprietary rights may be outweighed by the expense or distraction to
our management. We may initiate claims or litigation against third parties for infringement, misappropriation or other
violations of our intellectual property or other proprietary rights or to establish the validity of our intellectual property
or other proprietary rights, but outcomes in any such litigation can be difficult to predict. Any such litigation, whether
or not it is resolved in our favor, could be time-consuming, result in significant expense to us and divert the efforts of
our technical and management personnel. If we are unable to detect or prevent third parties from infringing,
misappropriating or otherwise violating our rights in our patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets or other
proprietary rights or information, our competitive position could be adversely affected.

In addition, in connection with our performance of services for the U.S. government, the U.S. government has
certain rights to inventions, data, software codes and related material that we develop under government-funded
contracts and subcontracts, which means that the U.S. government may disclose or license our information to third
parties, including, in some instances, our competitors. Any exercise by the U.S. government of such rights could
have an adverse effect on our competitive position, business, financial condition, results of operations and
prospects.

Assertions by third parties of infringement, misappropriation or other violations by us of their intellectual
property rights could result in significant costs and could limit our ability to use certain technologies,
which would result in substantial harm to our business and operating results.

In recent years, there has been significant litigation involving intellectual property rights in technology industries. In
the course of conducting our business, we may inadvertently infringe the intellectual property rights of others,
resulting in claims against us or our customers, or we may face allegations, with or without merit, that we or our
service providers, suppliers, subcontractors or customers have infringed, misappropriated or otherwise violated the
intellectual property rights of others. If, with respect to any claim against us for violation of third-party intellectual
property rights, we are unable to prevail in the litigation, retain or obtain sufficient rights, develop non-infringing
solutions or otherwise alter our business practices on a timely or cost-efficient basis, our business and competitive
position may be adversely affected. Such claims also could subject us to significant liability for damages, potentially
including treble damages if we are found to have willfully infringed a third party's intellectual property rights. In
addition, our contracts generally indemnify our customers for third-party claims for intellectual property infringement
by the services and products we provide. Besides the expense of defending such claims, and the cost of any large
indemnity payments, any dispute with a customer with respect to such obligations also could have adverse effects
on our relationship with that customer and other existing customers and new customers, any of which could harm
our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Risks Relating to Our Stock

We cannot assure you that we will continue to pay dividends on our common stock.

In March 2012, our Board of Directors approved the initiation of a quarterly dividend program. The timing,
declaration, amount and payment of any future dividends fall within the discretion of our Board of Directors and will
depend on many factors, including our available cash, estimated cash needs, earnings, financial condition,
operating results and capital requirements, as well as limitations in our contractual agreements, applicable law,
regulatory constraints, industry practice and other business considerations that our Board of Directors considers
relevant. A change in our dividend program could have an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 34

PART I

Provisions in our charter documents and under Delaware law could delay or prevent transactions that many
stockholders may favor.

Some provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws may have the effect of delaying, discouraging or
preventing a merger or acquisition that our stockholders may consider favorable, including transactions in which
stockholders might receive a premium for their shares. These restrictions, which may also make it more difficult for
our stockholders to elect directors not endorsed by our current directors and management, include the following:

• Our certificate of incorporation contains a provision that mergers and certain other business combinations
between us and a related person be approved by the holders of a majority of the voting power of such
securities that are not owned by the related person, unless approved by a majority of continuing directors or
certain other exceptions.

• Our stockholders may not act by written consent. As a result, a holder, or holders, controlling a majority of

our capital stock are limited in their ability to take certain actions other than in connection with its annual
stockholders' meeting or a special meeting called at the request of qualified stockholders as provided in our
certificate of incorporation and bylaws.

• Our Board of Directors may issue, without stockholder approval, shares of undesignated preferred stock.
The ability to authorize undesignated preferred stock makes it possible for our Board of Directors to issue
preferred stock with voting or other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to
acquire us.

As a Delaware corporation, we are also subject to certain restrictions on business combinations. Under Delaware
law, a corporation may not engage in a business combination with any holder of 15% or more of its capital stock
unless the holder has held the stock for three years, or among other things, our Board of Directors has approved the
business combination or the transaction pursuant to which such person became a 15% holder prior to the time the
person became a 15% holder.

Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of
Equity Securities

Our common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the ticker symbol "LDOS."

Holders of Common Stock

As of February 15, 2021, there were approximately 21,088 holders of record of Leidos common stock. The number
of stockholders of record of our common stock is not representative of the number of beneficial owners due to the
fact that many shares are held by depositories, brokers or nominees.

Dividend Policy

During fiscal 2020 and 2019, we declared and paid quarterly dividends totaling $1.36 and $1.32 per share,
respectively, of Leidos common stock. We currently intend to continue paying dividends on a quarterly basis,
although the declaration of any future dividends will be determined by our Board of Directors and will depend on
many factors, including available cash, estimated cash needs, earnings, financial condition, operating results and
capital requirements, as well as limitations in our contractual agreements, applicable law, regulatory constraints,
industry practice and other business considerations that the Board of Directors considers relevant. Our ability to
declare and pay future dividends on Leidos stock may be restricted by the provisions of Delaware law and
covenants in our then-existing indebtedness arrangements.

Stock Performance Graph

The following graph compares the total cumulative five-year return on Leidos common stock through January 1,
2021 to two indices: (i) the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite index and (ii) the Standard & Poor's 500 IT Services
Industry index. The graph assumes an initial investment of $100 on December 31, 2015, and that dividends, if any,
have been reinvested. The comparisons in the graph are required by the SEC, based upon historical data and are
not intended to forecast or be indicative of possible future performance of Leidos common stock.

Purchases of Equity Securities

On February 16, 2018, our Board of Directors authorized a new share repurchase program of up to 20 million
shares of Leidos outstanding common stock. The shares may be repurchased from time to time in one or more
open market repurchases or privately negotiated transactions, including accelerated share repurchase transactions.
The actual timing, number and value of shares repurchased under the program will depend on a number of factors,
including the market price of Leidos common stock, general market and economic conditions, applicable legal
requirements, compliance with the terms of our outstanding indebtedness and other considerations. There is no
assurance as to the number of shares that will be repurchased, and the repurchase program may be suspended or
discontinued at any time at our Board of Directors' discretion.

PART II

Overview

We are a FORTUNE 500® science, engineering and information technology company that provides services and
solutions in the defense, intelligence, homeland security, civil and health markets, both domestically and
internationally. We bring domain-specific capabilities and innovations to customers in each of these markets by
leveraging five technical core competencies: digital modernization, cyber operations, mission software systems,
integrated systems and mission operations. Our customers include the U.S. Department of Defense ("DoD"), the
U.S. Intelligence Community, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, the Federal Aviation Administration, the
Department of Veterans Affairs and many other U.S. civilian, state and local government agencies as well as foreign
government agencies. Less than 10% of our revenues and tangible long-lived assets are generated by or owned by
entities located outside of the United States. We operate in three reportable segments: Defense Solutions, Civil and
Health. Additionally, we separately present the unallocable costs associated with corporate functions as Corporate.

For additional information regarding our reportable segments, see “Business” in Part I and "Note 23—Business
Segments" of the notes to the consolidated financial statements contained within this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Our significant initiatives include the following:

•

achieving annual revenue growth through internal collaboration and better leveraging of key differentiators
across our company and the deployment of resources and investments into higher growth markets;

increasing headcount and internal direct labor content on our contract portfolio;

continued improvement in our back office infrastructure and related business processes for greater
effectiveness and efficiency across all business functions; and

disciplined deployment of our cash resources and use of our capital structure to enhance shareholder value
while retaining an appropriate amount of financial leverage.

Sales Trend. For fiscal 2020, revenues increased $1.2 billion, or 11%, compared to fiscal 2019, primarily due to
revenues related to the acquisitions of Dynetics, Inc. ("Dynetics") and L3Harris Technologies' security detection and
automation businesses ("the SD&A Businesses"), program wins and a net increase in volumes on certain programs.
This was partially offset by the completion of certain contracts, negative impacts on certain contracts due to
COVID-19 and the impact of the sale of our commercial cybersecurity and health staff augmentation businesses in
the prior year. For fiscal 2019, revenues increased $900 million, or 9%, compared to fiscal 2018, primarily due to
program wins and a net increase in program volumes, partially offset by programs ended and the impact of the sale
of our commercial cybersecurity and health staff augmentation businesses. See "Results of Operations" below for
discussion of our individual segment results.

Operating Expenses and Income Trend. For fiscal 2020, operating expenses increased by $1.1 billion, or 11%,
compared to fiscal 2019. Operating margin for fiscal 2020 was 8.1% compared to 8.2% for fiscal 2019. Operating
income was $998 million, an $86 million increase compared to fiscal 2019. The increase in operating income was
primarily attributable to program wins, income related to the acquisitions of Dynetics and the SD&A Businesses and
a net gain recognized upon the receipt of proceeds related to the VirnetX, Inc. ("VirnetX") legal matter. This was
partially offset by negative impacts on certain contracts due to COVID-19, a net gain recognized in the prior year
upon the receipt of the Greek arbitration award and increases in acquisition and integration costs and amortization
expenses primarily associated with our current year acquisitions.

For fiscal 2019, operating expenses increased by $737 million, or 8%, compared to fiscal 2018. Operating margin
for fiscal 2019 was 8.2% compared to 7.3% for fiscal 2018. Operating income was $912 million, a $163 million
increase compared to fiscal 2018. The increases in operating margin and operating income were primarily
attributable to the receipt of the Greek arbitration award, favorable program mix, decreases in acquisition,
integration and restructuring costs and lower amortization of intangible assets.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 40

PART II

From a macroeconomic perspective, our industry is under general competitive pressures associated with spending
from our largest customer, the U.S. government, and requires a high level of cost management focus to allow us to
remain competitive. Although the Administration has not indicated a desire to reduce spending in the defense and
homeland security sectors, the likelihood, extent and duration of current spending levels in these areas remains
unclear. We continue to review our cost structure against our anticipated sales and undertake cost management
actions and efficiency initiatives where necessary.

COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic is affecting major economic and financial markets, and effectively all industries and
governments are facing challenges, which has resulted in a period of business disruption, the length and severity of
which cannot be predicted. The pandemic has resulted in significant travel restrictions, government orders to
“shelter-in-place”, quarantine restrictions and significant disruption of the financial markets. We have acted to
protect the health and safety of our employees, comply with workplace health and safety regulations and work with
our customers to minimize disruptions. The pandemic has impacted each of our groups, primarily in access to
customer sites, travel restrictions, limitations of remote work and COVID-19 related costs.

Consistent with federal, state and local guidance, we perform work that is essential to support the critical
infrastructure of the United States, the Defense Industrial Base and healthcare sector, and we continue to operate in
support of our customers. We have taken steps to support increased teleworking and safe workplace environments.
We have some minor business operations that are not designated as critical infrastructure and therefore have been
required to operate in minimal conditions.

For fiscal 2020, COVID-19 adversely impacted revenues by approximately $198 million and impacted operating
income by approximately $96 million as compared to prior year results. The full extent of the impact of the
COVID-19 pandemic on our operational and financial performance, including our ability to execute on programs in
the expected timeframe, will depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the pandemic
and the distribution and efficacy of vaccines, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. While we have
been able to make some recoveries, the ultimate timing and amount of recoveries remain uncertain as they will
depend on a range of government actions, including each government agency and/or contracting officer's
implementation of the authority granted in Section 3610 of the CARES Act, a $2 trillion coronavirus response bill
providing widespread emergency relief, including the availability of funds. As a result of Congress passing
government fiscal year ("GFY") 2021 appropriations, the relief from the CARES Act has been extended until March
31, 2021.

We have experienced delays, and expect to continue experiencing delays, on certain contracts as a result of
standby leave absences, which has caused a portion of our contracts to be less profitable. Within our Health
segment we saw recoveries in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 and continue to expect to see further recoveries in
fiscal 2021. Our Defense Solutions reportable segment experienced less of a negative impact in the fourth quarter
of fiscal 2020 than in previous quarters. We also experienced lower indirect expenditures for fiscal 2020 as a result
of COVID-19 which partially offset the operating income impact on our programs. We are seeking reimbursement of
some of the COVID-19 related costs under our U.S. government contracts through a combination of equitable
adjustments to the contract prices and reimbursement of the costs under Section 3610, which allows, but does not
require, federal agencies to reimburse contractors at the minimum applicable contract billing rate for costs arising
from certain paid leave, including sick leave, a contractor provides to keep its employees or subcontractors in a
ready state, including to protect the life and safety of government and contractor personnel. Reimbursement of any
costs under Section 3610 increases sales, but does not include a profit or fee and has the effect of reducing our
margins. Standby cost increases, including costs for employees whose jobs cannot be performed remotely, may not
be fully recoverable under our contracts, particularly fixed-price contracts. We also have no assurance that
Congress will appropriate funds to cover the reimbursement of defense contractors authorized by the CARES Act,
which could reduce funds available for recovery of these costs or for other U.S. government defense priorities.

The CARES Act also enabled us to defer payment of the employer portion of social security taxes. As of January 1,
2021, we deferred $123 million of employer social security tax payments and received $12 million from the
Employee Retention Credit.

We have taken measures to protect the health and well-being of our workforce and are working with our customers
to minimize the delay and disruption of the award and performance on our contracts. Many of our employees
continue to work remotely while our offices remain open with limited capacity.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 41

PART II

Business Environment and Trends

U.S. Government Markets

In fiscal 2020, we generated approximately 87% of our total revenues from contracts with the U.S. government,
either as a prime contractor or a subcontractor to other contractors engaged in work for the U.S. government.
Revenues under contracts with the DoD and U.S. Intelligence Community, including subcontracts under which the
DoD or the U.S. Intelligence Community is the ultimate purchaser, represented approximately 49% of our total
revenues for fiscal 2020. Accordingly, our business performance is affected by the overall level of U.S. government
spending, especially national security, homeland security and intelligence spending, and the alignment of our
service and product offerings and capabilities with current and future budget priorities of the U.S. government.

On February 10, 2020, the President submitted the GFY 2021 budget proposal to Congress, which included
discretionary spending levels for defense and non-defense programs of $741 billion and $590 billion, respectively.
Shortly after the budget release, Congress and the Administration shifted their collective attention to mitigating the
impact of COVID-19.

Prior to the beginning of GFY 2021, Congress passed a continuing resolution ("CR") that was enacted on October 1,
2020 to provide temporary funding for government operations at GFY 2020 enacted levels until December 11, 2020.
A series of short-term CRs were subsequently passed to extend temporary funding until the passage of GFY 2021
appropriations. On December 20, 2020, Congress reached agreement on a comprehensive GFY 2021
Appropriations Package, and on December 27, 2020, the President signed the $1.4 trillion appropriations deal.

With the enactment of GFY 2021 spending levels, attention now turns to additional COVID-19 relief. Immediately
following that effort will be submission of a GFY 2021 supplemental aimed at economic recovery. Completing action
on these proposals may delay the President's GFY 2022 budget request, which is not expected to be submitted to
Congress until late April or early May.

Trends in the U.S. government contracting process, including a shift towards multiple-awards contracts, in which
certain contractors are preapproved using indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity ("IDIQ") and U.S. General Services
Administration ("GSA") contract vehicles, have increased competition for U.S. government contracts, reduced
backlogs by shortening periods of performance on contracts and increased pricing pressure. We expect that a
majority of the business that we seek in the foreseeable future will be awarded through a competitive bidding
process. For more information on these risks and uncertainties, see “Risk Factors” in Part I of this Annual Report on
Form 10-K.

International Markets

Sales to customers in international markets represented 8% of total revenues for fiscal 2020. Our international
customers include foreign governments and their agencies. Our international business increases our exposure to
international markets and the associated international regulatory, foreign currency exchange rate and geopolitical
risks.

Changes in international trade policies, including higher tariffs on imported goods and materials, may increase our
procurement costs of certain IT hardware used both on our contracts and for internal use. However, we expect to
recover certain portions of these higher tariffs through our cost-plus contracts. While we evaluate the impact of
higher tariffs, currently, we do not expect tariffs to have a significant impact to our business.

Key Performance Measures

The primary financial performance measures we use to manage our business and monitor results of operations are
revenue, operating income, cash flows from operations and diluted earnings per share. Bookings and backlog are
also useful measures for management and investors to evaluate our performance and potential future revenues. In
addition, we consider business performance by contract type to be useful to management and investors when
evaluating our operating income and margin performance.

The increase in revenues for fiscal 2020 as compared to fiscal 2019 was primarily attributable to $937 million of
revenues related to the acquisition of Dynetics, program wins and a net increase in materials volume on certain
programs. This was partially offset by the completion of certain contracts and approximately $51 million of negative
impacts from reduced volume on certain contracts due to COVID-19.

PART II

The increase in revenues for fiscal 2019 as compared to fiscal 2018 was primarily attributable to new awards and a
net increase in program volumes, partially offset by the completion of certain contracts and adverse exchange rate
movements in the Australian dollar and British pound when compared to the U.S. dollar.

The increase in operating income for fiscal 2020 as compared to fiscal 2019 was primarily attributable to income
related to the acquisition of Dynetics, program wins and lower indirect expenditures. This was partially offset by a
net decrease in volumes on certain programs, including approximately $28 million of negative impacts on certain
contracts due to COVID-19, and higher amortization of intangible assets related to the acquisition of Dynetics.

The increase in operating income for fiscal 2019 as compared to fiscal 2018 was primarily attributable to new
awards, favorable program mix and the release of a contract reserve.

The decrease in operating loss for fiscal 2020 as compared to fiscal 2019 was primarily attributable to an $81 million
net gain recognized upon the receipt of proceeds related to the VirnetX legal matter and reduced indirect expenses
due to COVID-19. This was partially offset by a $52 million net gain recognized in the prior year upon the receipt of
the Greek arbitration award and a $29 million increase in acquisition, integration and restructuring costs primarily
associated with the acquisitions of Dynetics and the SD&A Businesses.

The decrease in operating loss for fiscal 2019 as compared to fiscal 2018 was primarily attributable to the $52

Equity earnings of non-consolidated subsidiaries

We have certain non-controlling ownership interests in equity method investments. For fiscal 2020, 2019 and 2018,
we recorded earnings of $16 million, $29 million and $28 million, respectively, from our equity method investments,
partially offset by amortization of $2 million, $11 million and $10 million, respectively.

Non-Operating Expense, Net

Non-operating expense, net increased $171 million for fiscal 2020 as compared to fiscal 2019, primarily due to the
$88 million gain recognized on the sale of our commercial cybersecurity business in the prior year, $36 million of
debt discount and deferred financing costs written off and higher interest expense associated with increases in our
long-term debt related to the financing of the acquisitions of Dynetics and the SD&A Businesses.

Non-operating expense, net decreased $93 million for fiscal 2019 as compared to fiscal 2018, primarily due to the
$88 million gain recognized on the sale of our commercial cybersecurity business.

Provision for Income Taxes

Our effective tax rate was 19.5%, 22.6% and 4.6% in fiscal 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The effective tax rate
for fiscal 2020 was favorably impacted primarily by federal research tax credits and excess tax benefits related to
employee stock-based payment transactions, partially offset by taxes related to foreign operations.

The effective tax rate for fiscal 2019 was favorably impacted primarily by excess tax benefits related to employee
stock-based payment transactions and federal research tax credits, partially offset by an increase in valuation
allowances arising from foreign withholding tax and an increase in taxes related to the sale of the commercial
cybersecurity business.

The effective tax rate for fiscal 2018 was favorably impacted primarily by a decrease in valuation allowances arising
from the taxable conversion of a subsidiary and the utilization of capital losses, an increase in deferred tax assets
related to the stock basis of a subsidiary held for sale, excess tax benefits related to employee stock-based
payment transactions and federal research tax credits.

Non-controlling Interest

We have an 88% controlling interest in Mission Support Alliance, LLC ("MSA"), a joint venture with Centerra Group,
LLC, which is anticipated to end in early fiscal 2021. We also have a 53% controlling interest in Hanford Mission
Integration Solutions, LLC ("HMIS"), the legal entity for the follow-on contract to MSA's contract and a joint venture
with Centerra Group, LLC and Parsons Government Services, Inc. We include the financial results for MSA and
HMIS in our consolidated financial statements. Net income attributable to non-controlling interest was $1 million for
fiscal 2020 and 2018 and $3 million for fiscal 2019.

Bookings and Backlog

We had net bookings of $17.8 billion and $14.5 billion during fiscal 2020 and 2019, respectively. Net bookings
represent the estimated amount of revenue to be earned in the future from funded and unfunded contract awards
that were received during the year, net of any adjustments to previously awarded backlog amounts. We calculate
net bookings as the year’s ending backlog, plus the year’s revenues, less the prior year’s ending backlog and any
impacts from foreign currency or acquisitions and divestitures.

Backlog represents the estimated amount of future revenues to be recognized under negotiated contracts. We
segregate our backlog into two categories as follows:

•

Funded Backlog. Funded backlog for contracts with the U.S. government represents the value on contracts
for which funding is appropriated less revenues previously recognized on these contracts. Funded backlog
for contracts with non-U.S. government entities and commercial customers represents the estimated value
on contracts, which may cover multiple future years, under which we are obligated to perform, less
revenues previously recognized on the contracts.

Negotiated Unfunded Backlog. Negotiated unfunded backlog represents estimated amounts of revenue to
be earned in the future from contracts for which funding has not been appropriated and unexercised priced
contract options. Negotiated unfunded backlog does not include unexercised option periods and future
potential task orders expected to be awarded under IDIQ, GSA Schedule or other master agreement
contract vehicles, with the exception of certain IDIQ contracts where task orders are not competitively
awarded and separately priced but instead are used as a funding mechanism, and where there is a basis
for estimating future revenues and funding on future anticipated task orders.

The estimated value of our total backlog for the periods presented was as follows:

Defense Solutions:

PART II

The change in backlog for the Defense Solutions and Civil reportable segments reflect $1,632 million and $574
million, respectively, of backlog acquired as a result of the acquisitions of Dynetics and the SD&A Businesses,
respectively. (see "Note 6—Acquisitions" of the notes to the consolidated financial statements contained within this
Annual Report on Form 10-K).

Bookings and backlog fluctuate from period to period depending on our success rate in winning contracts and the
timing of contract awards, renewals, modifications and cancellations, as well as foreign currency movements.
Contract awards may be negatively impacted by ongoing industry-wide delays in procurement decisions and budget
cuts by the U.S. government as discussed in “Business Environment and Trends” in this Annual Report on Form 10-
K.

We expect to recognize a substantial portion of our funded backlog as revenues within the next 12 months.
However, the U.S. government may cancel any contract at any time through a termination for the convenience of
the U.S. government. In addition, certain contracts with commercial or non-U.S. government customers may include
provisions that allow the customer to cancel at any time. Most of our contracts have cancellation terms that would
permit us to recover all or a portion of our incurred costs and fees for work performed.

Contract Types

Our earnings and profitability may vary materially depending on changes in the proportionate amount of revenues
derived from each type of contract. For a discussion of the types of contracts under which we generate revenues,
see “Business—Contract Types” in Part I of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Revenues by contract type as a
percentage of our total revenues for the periods presented were as follows:

As of January 1, 2021, we had $524 million in cash and cash equivalents. In January 2020, we entered into an
unsecured revolving credit facility which can provide up to $750 million in additional borrowing, if required. This new
credit facility replaced the previous secured credit facility with the same borrowing capacity. During fiscal 2020 and
2019, there were no borrowings outstanding under the credit facilities and we were in compliance with the related
financial covenants.

At January 1, 2021 and January 3, 2020, we had outstanding debt of $4.7 billion and $3.0 billion, respectively. In
January 2020, we entered into a Credit Agreement with certain financial institutions, which provided for a senior
unsecured term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $1.9 billion (the "Term Loan Facility"). We used the
proceeds of the Term Loan Facility and cash on hand to repay in full all indebtedness, and terminate all
commitments, under, and discharge and release all guarantees and liens existing in connection with the credit
agreements entered into in August 2016.

Additionally, on January 17, 2020, we entered into a Bridge Credit Agreement with certain financial institutions,
which provided for a senior unsecured 364-day bridge loan facility in an aggregate amount of $1.25 billion (the
"Bridge Facility"). We used the proceeds of the Bridge Facility and cash on hand to fund the purchase of Dynetics.

In February 12, 2020, we entered into a senior unsecured delayed-draw term loan facility (the "Facility") providing
for $1.0 billion of commitments from certain financial institutions in connection with the acquisition of the SD&A
Businesses. On May 4, 2020, we completed our acquisition of the SD&A Businesses and drew on the Facility in an
aggregate principal amount of $1.0 billion. The proceeds of the Facility and cash on hand were used to fund the
purchase of the SD&A Businesses.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 47

PART II

On May 12, 2020, we issued and sold $500 million senior notes maturing in May 2023, $500 million senior notes
maturing in May 2025 and $750 million senior notes maturing in May 2030 (collectively, the "Notes"). The proceeds
from the Notes were used to repay all of the outstanding obligations in respect of principal, interest and fees under
the Bridge Credit Agreement and to repay a portion of the outstanding loans under the Facility.

On June 18, 2020, we entered into a 364-day Term Loan Credit Agreement, which provided for a senior unsecured
term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $300 million (the "Term Loan"). The proceeds of the Term Loan
and cash on hand on were used to repay in full all indebtedness under, and discharge and release all guarantees
existing in connection with the Facility.

On September 1, 2020, we retired our $450 million senior unsecured notes due December 2020. Cash on hand was
used to repay in full all indebtedness under, and discharge and release all guarantees existing in connection with
the notes.

On October 8, 2020, we issued and sold $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of fixed-rate senior notes maturing
in February 2031 (the "2031 Notes"). The proceeds from the 2031 Notes were used for general corporate purposes,
including to repay all of the outstanding obligations in respect of principal, interest and fees under the 364-day Term
Loan and to repay a portion of the outstanding loans under the five-year Term Loan Facility.

See "Note 15—Debt" for further details regarding the debt transactions noted above.

In addition to the refinancing activity noted above, we made principal payments on our long-term debt of $731
million, $80 million, and $59 million during fiscal 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. This activity included required
principal payments on our term loans of $72 million, $69 million and $46 million during fiscal 2020, 2019 and 2018,
respectively. In April 2018, we made a required debt prepayment of $10 million on our senior secured term loans.
The prepayment was a result of the annual excess cash flow calculation clause in our August 2016 credit
agreements. The notes outstanding as of January 1, 2021, contain financial covenants and customary restrictive
covenants. We were in compliance with all covenants as of January 1, 2021.

We paid dividends of $196 million for fiscal 2020 and $198 million for fiscal 2019 and 2018.

During fiscal 2020, we sold $1,866 million of accounts receivable under accounts receivable purchase agreements
and received proceeds of $1,864 million (see "Note 22—Supplementary Cash Flow Information and Restricted
Cash").

We may from time to time seek to retire or purchase our outstanding debt through cash purchases in the open
market, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases, if any, will depend on prevailing market
conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be
material.

Stock repurchases of Leidos common stock may be made on the open market or in privately negotiated
transactions with third parties including through accelerated share repurchase ("ASR") agreements. Whether
repurchases are made and the timing and actual number of shares repurchased depends on a variety of factors
including price, corporate capital requirements, other market conditions and regulatory requirements. The
repurchase program may be accelerated, suspended, delayed or discontinued at any time.

During fiscal 2020, 2019 and 2018, we made open market repurchases of our common stock for an aggregate
purchase price of $67 million, $25 million and $167 million, respectively.

Additionally, during fiscal 2019 and 2018, we entered into ASR agreements with a financial institution, whereby we
paid an aggregate of $400 million and $250 million, respectively, and received approximately 6 million and 4 million
shares, respectively, of Leidos outstanding shares (see "Note 18—Earnings Per Share" of the notes to the
consolidated financial statements contained within this Annual Report on Form 10-K). The purchases were recorded
to "Additional paid-in capital" in the consolidated balance sheets. All shares delivered were immediately retired.

COVID-19 has negatively impacted the financial markets and may impact our liquidity; we will continue to assess
our liquidity needs as the pandemic and efforts to deploy vaccines evolve.

For the next 12 months, we anticipate that we will be able to meet our liquidity needs, including servicing our debt,
through cash generated from operations, available cash balances, sales of accounts receivable and, if needed,
borrowings from our revolving credit facility.

Net cash provided by operating activities increased $342 million for fiscal 2020 as compared to fiscal 2019. The
increase was primarily due to the timing of payroll payments, including the deferral of $123 million of tax payments
under the CARES Act, and the receipt of $85 million of proceeds related to the VirnetX legal matter.

Net cash provided by operating activities increased $224 million for fiscal 2019 as compared to fiscal 2018. The
increase was primarily due to more favorable timing of working capital changes including higher advance payments
from customers, $59 million received for the Greek arbitration award and lower payments for integration and
restructuring costs. These activities were partially offset by higher tax payments, the timing of interest payments and
$60 million of proceeds received from the termination of interest rate swaps in the prior year.

Net cash used in investing activities increased $2,880 million for fiscal 2020 as compared to fiscal 2019. The
increase was primarily due to $2,655 million of net cash paid related to the acquisitions of Dynetics and the SD&A
Businesses, $178 million received in the prior year for the disposition of our commercial cybersecurity and health
staff augmentation businesses, $96 million of proceeds received for the sale of real estate properties in the prior
year and higher purchases of equipment and leasehold improvements associated with our new global headquarters.
This was partially offset by $94 million of cash paid related to the acquisition of IMX in the prior year.

Net cash provided by investing activities increased $179 million for fiscal 2019 as compared to fiscal 2018. The
increase was primarily due to $178 million of proceeds received for the dispositions of our commercial cybersecurity
and health staff augmentation businesses, $96 million of proceeds received for the sale of real estate properties and
$81 million of cash paid in the prior year related to our 2016 acquisition. These activities were partially offset by $94
million of cash paid related to the acquisition of IMX, higher purchases of property, equipment and software and
lower proceeds from promissory notes.

Net cash provided by financing activities increased $2,160 million for fiscal 2020 as compared to fiscal 2019. The
increase was primarily due to $7,225 million of proceeds received related to the refinancing and the issuance of new
debt and higher stock repurchases in the prior year. This was partially offset by $4,925 million of principal
repayments of outstanding debt and the retirement of the $450 million senior notes in the current year.

Net cash used in financing activities increased $2 million for fiscal 2019 as compared to fiscal 2018. The increase
was primarily due to the timing of debt payments and higher stock repurchases, partially offset by $23 million of
cash paid related to a tax indemnification in the prior year and the timing of issuances of stock.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have outstanding performance guarantees and cross-indemnity agreements in connection with certain aspects
of our business. We also have letters of credit outstanding principally related to performance guarantees on
contracts and surety bonds outstanding principally related to performance and subcontractor payment bonds as
described in "Note 25—Commitments" of the notes to the consolidated financial statements contained within this
Annual Report on Form 10-K. 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.

(2) Includes total interest payments on our outstanding debt. Interest payments represent $146 million, $148 million, $139 million, $142 million and
$105 million of the balance for fiscal 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025, respectively, and $651 million for fiscal 2026 and thereafter. The total
interest payments on our outstanding term loan debt are calculated based on the stated variable rates of the notes as of January 1, 2021. The
total interest payments on our outstanding senior unsecured notes are calculated based on the stated fixed rates.

(3) Other long-term liabilities were allocated by fiscal year as follows: liabilities under deferred compensation arrangements are based upon the
average annual payments in prior years upon termination of employment by participants and other liabilities are based on the fiscal year that
the liabilities are expected to be realized. The table above does not include income tax liabilities for uncertain tax positions of $4 million and $1
million of other tax liabilities, as we are not able to reasonably estimate the timing of payments in individual years due to uncertainties in the
timing of audit outcomes and when settlements will become due. There is no obligation included for our foreign defined benefit pension plan,
as the plan is overfunded as of January 1, 2021. For a discussion of potential changes in these pension obligations, see "Note 21—Retirement
Plans" of the notes to the consolidated financial statements contained within this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated
financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America ("GAAP"). The preparation of these financial statements in accordance 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. Our estimates and assumptions have been prepared by management on the basis of the most current and
best available information. The results of these estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying
values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from these
estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

We have identified the following accounting policies as critical because they require significant judgments and
assumptions about highly complex and inherently uncertain matters and the use of reasonably different estimates
and assumptions could have a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 51

PART II

Revenue Recognition

Our revenues from contracts with customers are from offerings including digital modernization, cyber operations,
mission software systems, integrated systems and mission operations, primarily with the U.S. government and its
agencies. We also serve various state and local governments, foreign governments and commercial customers.

We perform under various types of contracts, which include firm-fixed-price ("FFP"), time-and-materials ("T&M"),
fixed-price-level-of-effort ("FP-LOE"), cost-plus-fixed-fee ("CPFF"), cost-plus-award-fee, cost-plus-incentive-fee and
fixed-price-incentive-fee contracts.

To determine the proper revenue recognition, we first evaluate whether we have a duly approved and enforceable
contract with a customer, in which the rights of the parties and payment terms are identified, and collectability is
probable. We also evaluate whether two or more contracts should be combined and accounted for as a single
contract, including the task orders issued under an IDIQ award. In addition, we assess contract modifications to
determine whether changes to existing contracts should be accounted for as part of the original contract or as a
separate contract. Contract modifications generally relate to changes in contract specifications and requirements
and do not add distinct services, and therefore are accounted for as part of the original contract. If contract
modifications add distinct goods or services and increase the contract value by an amount that reflects the
standalone selling price, those modifications are accounted for as separate contracts.

Most of our contracts are comprised of multiple promises including the design and build of software-based systems,
integration of hardware and software solutions, running and maintaining of IT infrastructure and procurement
services. In all cases, we assess if the multiple promises should be accounted for as separate performance
obligations or combined into a single performance obligation. We generally separate multiple promises in a contract
as separate performance obligations if those promises are distinct, both individually and in the context of the
contract. If multiple promises in a contract are highly interrelated or require significant integration or customization
within a group, they are combined and accounted for as a single performance obligation.

Our contracts with the U.S. government often contain options to renew existing contracts for an additional period of
time (generally a year at a time) under the same terms and conditions as the original contract, and generally do not
provide the customer any material rights under the contract. We account for renewal options as separate contracts
when they include distinct goods or services at standalone selling prices.

Contracts with the U.S. government are subject to the Federal Acquisition Regulation ("FAR") and priced on
estimated or actual costs of providing the goods or services. The FAR provides guidance on types of costs that are
allowable in establishing prices for goods and services provided to the U.S. government and its agencies. Each
contract is competitively priced and bid separately. Pricing for non-U.S. government agencies and commercial
customers is based on specific negotiations with each customer. In circumstances where the standalone selling
price is not directly observable, we estimate the standalone selling price using the expected cost-plus margin
approach. Any taxes collected or imposed when determining the transaction price are excluded.

Certain cost-plus and fixed-price contracts contain award fees, incentive fees or other provisions that may either
increase or decrease the transaction price. These variable amounts generally are awarded upon achievement of
certain performance metrics, program milestones or cost targets and can be based upon customer discretion. We
estimate variable consideration at the most probable amount that we expect to be entitled to, based on the
assessment of the contractual variable fee criteria, complexity of work and related risks, extent of customer
discretion, amount of variable consideration received historically and the potential of significant reversal of revenue.

We allocate the transaction price of a contract to its performance obligations in the proportion of its respective
standalone selling prices. The standalone selling price of the performance obligations is generally based on an
expected cost-plus margin approach, in accordance with the FAR. For certain product sales, prices from other
standalone sales are used. Substantially all of our contracts do not contain a significant financing component, which
would require an adjustment to the transaction price of the contract.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 52

PART II

We recognize revenue on our service-based contracts primarily over time as there is continuous transfer of control
to the customer over the duration of the contract as the promised services are performed. For U.S. government
contracts, continuous transfer of control to the customer is evidenced by clauses in the contract that allow the
customer to unilaterally terminate the contract for convenience, pay for costs incurred plus a reasonable profit and
take control of any work-in-process. Similarly, for non-U.S. government contracts, the customer typically controls the
work-in-process as evidenced by rights to payment for work performed to date plus a reasonable profit to deliver
products or services for which we do not have an alternate use. Anticipated losses on service-based contracts are
recognized when incurred (generally on a straight-line basis) over the contract term. In certain product sales, where
the products have an alternate use, revenue is recognized at a point in time when the customer takes control of the
asset usually denoted by possession and legal title.

On FFP contracts requiring system integration and cost-plus contracts with variable consideration, revenue is
recognized over time generally using a method that measures the extent of progress towards completion of a
performance obligation, principally using a cost-input method (referred to as the cost-to-cost method). Under the
cost-to-cost method, revenue is recognized based on the proportion of total costs incurred to estimated total costs-
at-completion ("EAC"). A performance obligation's EAC includes all direct costs such as materials, labor,
subcontract costs, overhead and a ratable portion of general and administrative costs. In addition, an EAC of a
performance obligation includes future losses estimated to be incurred on onerous contracts, as and when known.
On certain other contracts, principally T&M, FP-LOE and CPFF, revenue is recognized using the right-to-invoice
practical expedient as we are contractually able to invoice the customer based on the control transferred to the
customer. Additionally, on maintenance (generally FFP) performance obligations, revenue is recognized over time
using a straight-line method as the control of the services is provided to the customer evenly over the period of
performance.

For certain performance obligations where we are not primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the
goods or service to the customer, do not have inventory risk and do not have discretion in establishing the price for
the goods or service, we recognize revenue on a net basis.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of the fair value of consideration transferred, plus the fair value of any non-
controlling interests in the acquiree, over the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the
acquisition date. We recognize purchased intangible assets in connection with our business acquisitions at fair
value on the acquisition date.

Goodwill and intangible assets, net collectively represent 60% and 58% of our total assets as of January 1, 2021
and January 3, 2020, respectively.

Goodwill is not amortized, but instead is tested annually for impairment at the reporting unit level and tested more
frequently if events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Our policy is to
perform our annual goodwill impairment evaluation as of the first day of the fourth quarter of our fiscal year. During
fiscal 2020 and 2019, we had seven and six reporting units, respectively, for the purpose of testing goodwill for
impairment.

Estimating the fair value of a reporting unit and intangibles requires the exercise of significant judgment and
assumptions including judgments about expected future cash flows, weighted-average cost of capital, discount rates
and expected long-term growth rates. In some cases, we use discounted cash flow analyses, which are based on
estimates of future sales, earnings and cash flows after considering such factors as general market conditions,
customer budgets, existing firm and future orders, changes in working capital, long term business plans and recent
operating performance. A significant change to these estimates and assumptions could cause the estimated fair
values of our reporting units and intangible assets to decline and increase the risk of an impairment charge to
earnings. Intangible assets with finite lives are assessed for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

Intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized but are assessed for impairment at the beginning of the
fourth quarter and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be
recoverable.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 53

PART II

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method in accordance with the accounting standard for
income taxes. The asset and liability method requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the
expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and tax bases of assets
and liabilities. Under this method, changes in tax rates and laws are recognized in income in the period such
changes are enacted.

We record net deferred tax assets to the extent we believe these assets will more likely than not be realized. In
making such determination, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of
existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent results of
operations. If we were to determine that we would be able to realize our deferred income tax assets in the future in
excess of their net recorded amount or would no longer be able to realize our deferred income tax assets in the
future as currently recorded, we would make an adjustment to the valuation allowance which would decrease or
increase the provision for income taxes.

The provision for federal, state, foreign and local income taxes is calculated on income before income taxes based
on current tax law and includes the cumulative effect of any changes in tax rates from those used previously in
determining deferred tax assets and liabilities. Such provision differs from the amounts currently payable because
certain items of income and expense are recognized in different reporting periods for financial reporting purposes
than for income tax purposes.

We recognize liabilities for uncertain tax positions when it is more likely than not that a tax position will not be
sustained upon examination and settlement with various taxing authorities. Liabilities for uncertain tax positions are
measured based upon the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate
settlement. We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in our income tax expense.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to certain market risks in the normal course of business. Our current market risk exposures are
primarily related to interest rates and foreign currency fluctuations. The following information about our market
sensitive financial instruments contains forward-looking statements.

Interest Rate Risk

Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to long-term debt obligations and
derivatives. Our policy authorizes, with Board of Directors' approval, the limited use of derivative instruments to
hedge specific interest rate risks.

Debt and derivatives

At January 1, 2021 and January 3, 2020, we had $4.7 billion and $3.0 billion, respectively, of long-term debt, which
included $1.4 billion and $1.9 billion, respectively, related to our senior unsecured term loans that have a variable
stated interest rate that is determined based on the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") rate plus a margin. As
a result, we may experience fluctuations in interest expense.

We have interest rate swap agreements to hedge the cash flows of a portion of our variable rate senior unsecured
term loan ("Variable Rate Loan"). Under the terms of the interest rate swap agreements, we receive variable interest
payments based on the one-month LIBOR rate and pay interest at a fixed rate. During fiscal 2018, we terminated
our existing interest rate swaps and entered into new interest rate swap agreements, which mature in August 2025
and have a fixed interest rate of 3.00%, to hedge the cash flows of $1.5 billion of our Variable Rate Loan. As of
January 1, 2021, the notional value of the interest rate swap agreements was $1.1 billion. The interest rate swap
agreements effectively converted a portion of our variable rate borrowing to a fixed rate borrowing. As of January 1,
2021, and January 3, 2020, the fair value of our interest rate swap agreements with respect to our Variable Rate
Loan was a liability of $103 million and $75 million, respectively.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 54

PART II

The counterparties to these agreements are financial institutions. We do not hold or issue derivative financial
instruments for trading or speculative purposes. We cannot predict future market fluctuations in interest rates and
their impact on our interest rate swaps. The net hypothetical 10% movement in the one-month LIBOR rate would
not have a significant impact on our annual interest expense. For additional information related to our interest rate
swap agreements and debt, see "Note 14—Derivative Instruments" and "Note 15—Debt," respectively, of the notes
to the consolidated financial statements contained within this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

As of January 1, 2021, and January 3, 2020, our cash and cash equivalents included investments in several large
institutional money market accounts. For fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2019, a hypothetical 10% interest rate movement
would not have a significant impact on the value of our holdings or on interest income.

Foreign Currency Risk

Although the majority of our transactions are denominated in U.S. dollars, some of our transactions are
denominated in foreign currencies. Our foreign currency exchange rate risk relates to receipts from customers,
payments to suppliers and certain intercompany transactions denominated in currencies other than our (or one of
our subsidiaries') functional currency. Our foreign operations represented 8% of total revenues for fiscal 2020 and
2019 and 9% of total revenues for fiscal 2018.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the shareholders and the Board of Directors of Leidos Holdings, Inc.
Reston, Virginia

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Leidos Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries (the
"Company") as of January 1, 2021 and January 3, 2020, the related consolidated statements of income,
comprehensive income, equity, and cash flows, for the fiscal years ended January 1, 2021, January 3, 2020, and
December 28, 2018, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the
financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of January 1,
2021 and January 3, 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the fiscal years ended January 1,
2021, January 3, 2020, and December 28, 2018, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United
States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of January 1, 2021, based on criteria
established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 23, 2021, expressed an unqualified
opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with
the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal
securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the
PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of
material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that
respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial
statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current-period audit of the financial
statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relate to
accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging,
subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion
on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below,
providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Revenues - Refer to Note 3 and Note 4 to the financial statements

Critical Audit Matter Description

The Company recognizes revenue on service-based contracts primarily over time as there is continuous transfer of
control to the customer over the duration of the contract as the Company performs the promised services. The
accounting conclusions for contracts involves judgment, particularly as it relates to determining whether multiple
promises within a single contract are highly interrelated and represent a single performance obligation and whether
or not the Company is acting as a principal in the fulfillment of the identified performance obligations on certain
contracts.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 57

On firm-fixed-price (FFP) contracts requiring system integration and cost-plus contracts with variable consideration,
revenue is recognized over time generally using a method that measures the extent of progress towards completion
of a performance obligation, principally using a cost-input method (referred to as the cost-to-cost method). Under
the cost-to-cost method, revenue is recognized based on the proportion of total costs incurred to estimated total
costs-at-completion ("EAC"). A performance obligation's EAC includes all direct costs such as materials, labor,
subcontract costs, overhead and a ratable portion of general and administrative costs. The accounting for these
contracts involves judgment, particularly as it relates to the process of estimating total costs for the performance
obligation.

Given the judgments necessary to determine whether multiple promises within a single contract represent a single
performance obligation, whether or not the Company is acting as principal in the fulfillment of the identified
performance obligations on certain contracts, and estimates of total costs for the performance obligations that
recognize revenue using the cost-to-cost method, auditing such accounting conclusions and estimates required
extensive audit effort due to the volume and complexity of these contracts and a high degree of auditor judgment
when performing audit procedures and evaluating the results of those procedures.

How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit

Our audit procedures related to management’s conclusions regarding whether multiple promises within a single
contract represent a single performance obligation, whether or not the Company is acting as a principal or an agent
in fulfilling identified performance obligations on certain contracts, and estimates of total costs for the performance
obligations that recognize revenue using the cost-to-cost method included the following, among others:

•

We tested the effectiveness of controls over contract revenue, including management’s controls over the
initial setup of new contract arrangements and the estimates of total costs for identified performance
obligations.

We tested recorded revenue using a combination of analytical procedures and detailed contract testing.

For a selection of contracts we performed elements of the following for each contract:

◦

Evaluated the terms and conditions of each contract and the appropriateness of the accounting
treatment in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, by:

▪

Inspecting the executed contract to verify that the facts on which management’s conclusions
were reached were consistent with the actual terms and conditions of the contract.

Evaluating the contract within the context of the five-step model prescribed by ASC 606 and
that management’s conclusions were appropriate by evaluating the nature of the promises
within the contract, the interrelationship of the promised services provided, the pattern by which
obligations are fulfilled, the number of performance obligations identified, and which party is
acting as principal in the fulfillment of the identified performance obligations.

▪

Involving industry experts in evaluating the appropriateness of management’s conclusions.

◦

Tested the mathematical accuracy of management’s calculation of revenue for the performance
obligation.

• We analyzed cumulative adjustments recorded during the year and tested a sample to determine that the
adjustments were the result of changes in facts and circumstances and not estimates that were previously
inaccurate.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 58

Acquisitions – Valuation of Intangible Assets Acquired— Refer to Note 6 to the financial statements

Critical Audit Matter Description

As described in Note 6 of the consolidated financial statements, the Company completed two business acquisitions
during the fiscal year ended January 1, 2021. On January 31, 2020 the Company acquired Dynetics, Inc.
(“Dynetics”) for a purchase price of $1.6 billion, and on May 4, 2020, the Company acquired the Security Detection
& Automation (“SD&A”) businesses from L3Harris Technologies for a purchase price of $1.0 billion. The Company’s
accounting for the acquisitions included determining the fair value of the intangible assets acquired, which primarily
included $485 million of program-related intangible assets acquired in the Dynetics acquisition, as well as $141
million, $48 million, $73 million and $92 million of programs, customer relations, technology and in process research
and development intangible assets, respectively, acquired in the SD&A acquisition.

The fair value of the intangible assets was determined based on estimates and judgments, including the amount
and timing of expected future cash flows, long-term growth rates and discount rates. In some cases, the Company
used discounted cash flow analyses, which were based on estimates of future sales, earnings and cash flows after
considering such factors as general market conditions, customer budgets, existing and future orders, changes in
working capital, long term business plans and recent operating performance. These estimates and judgments are
forward-looking and could be affected by future economic and market conditions. Given the judgments necessary to
audit such accounting conclusions, the estimates required extensive audit effort due to the uncertainty associated
with future events and a high degree of auditor judgment when performing audit procedures and evaluating the
results of those procedures.

How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit

Our audit procedures related to the valuation of intangible assets included the following, among others:

•

We obtained and read the executed purchase agreements.

We tested the effectiveness of controls over the management’s process for identifying and determining the
fair value of the acquired intangible assets.

We tested the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data used in the fair value models which
included inspecting contractual documents, comparing projected cash flows to both historical actuals and
industry data, and inquiring of program management.

We involved our valuation specialists to assist with the evaluation of methodologies used by the Company
and significant valuation assumptions included in the fair value estimates, including the discount rate and
revenue growth rate applied to future cash flows.

We performed a sensitivity analyses over assumptions used in the model, to evaluate the risk associated
with a change in the fair value of the intangible assets resulting from changes in the assumptions.

We compared the significant assumptions to current industry, market and economic trends, historical results
of the acquired businesses, and to other relevant factors including benchmark data.

We evaluated the adequacy of the Company’s disclosures related to these acquisitions.

We have an 88% controlling interest in Mission Support Alliance, LLC ("MSA"), a joint venture with Centerra Group,
LLC, which includes 41% purchased from Jacobs Group, LLC on January 26, 2018. MSA's contract is anticipated to
end in early fiscal 2021. We also have a 53% controlling interest in Hanford Mission Integration Solutions, LLC
("HMIS"), the legal entity for the follow-on contract to MSA's contract and a joint venture with Centerra Group, LLC
and Parsons Government Services, Inc. We consolidate the financial results for MSA and HMIS into our
consolidated financial statements.

The consolidated financial statements also include the balances of all voting interest entities in which Leidos has a
controlling voting interest ("subsidiaries") and a variable interest entity ("VIE") in which Leidos is the primary
beneficiary. The consolidated balances of the VIE are not material to the consolidated financial statements for the

eliminated in consolidation.

Certain amounts in the prior year financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year

We also disaggregated "Loss on debt extinguishment" from "Other" within operating activities and "Payments for
debt issuance and modification costs" from "Other" within financing activities on the consolidated statements of cash
flows. Additionally, we combined "Other current assets" and "Other long-term assets" into "Other current assets and
other long-term assets" and "Accounts payable and accrued liabilities" and "Other long-term liabilities" into
"Accounts payable and accrued liabilities and other long-term liabilities" on the consolidated statements of cash

Accounting Standards Updates Adopted

ASU 2016-13, ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-05 and ASU 2019-11, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326)

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2016-13 and subsequent updates,
which eliminates the requirement that a credit loss on a financial instrument be "probable" prior to recognition.
Instead, a valuation allowance will be recorded to reflect an entity's current estimate of all expected credit losses,
based on both historical and forecasted information related to an instrument. The update is effective for public
companies for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and should be adopted
using a modified retrospective approach, which applies a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of
the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. A prospective approach is required for
debt securities for which an other-than-temporary impairment had been recognized before the effective date and
loans and debt securities acquired with deteriorated credit quality. Early adoption is permitted.

Effective January 4, 2020, we adopted the requirements of Topic 326 using the modified retrospective approach.
The adoption resulted in an immaterial impact to our financial assets and processes for determining the expected
credit loss.

Accounting Standards Updates Issued But Not Yet Adopted

ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04 which provides companies with optional expedients and exceptions
to ease the potential accounting burden associated with transitioning away from reference rates that are expected to
be discontinued. This update provides optional expedients for applying accounting guidance to contracts, hedging
relationships and other transactions that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or another
reference rate expected to be discontinued because of the reference rate reform. The amendments in this update
are effective for all entities as of March 2020 and can be adopted using a prospective approach no later than
December 31, 2022. We are currently evaluating the impacts of the reference rate reform.

ASU 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging –
Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06 which simplifies the accounting for convertible debt and convertible
preferred stock by removing the requirements to separate embedded conversion features from the host convertible
instruments. Additionally, the amendments in this update simplify the guidance in Subtopic 815-40 by removing
certain criteria that must be satisfied in order to classify a contract as equity. This update also improves the
consistency of earnings per share calculations by requiring an entity to use the if-converted method of calculating
diluted earnings per share rather than the treasury stock method for convertible instruments and also by requiring
the inclusion of the potential effect of shares settled in cash or shares in the diluted earnings per share calculation.
The amendments in this update are effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021,
and can be adopted using either a fully or modified retrospective approach. Early adoption is permitted, but no
earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Entities should adopt the guidance as of the beginning
of the fiscal year of adoption and cannot adopt the guidance in an interim reporting period.

We plan to early adopt this update in the beginning of fiscal 2021, and expect the associated financial statement
impacts to be immaterial.

Note 3—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Reporting Periods

Leidos' fiscal year ends on the Friday nearest the end of December. Fiscal 2020 ended January 1, 2021. Fiscal
2020 and 2018 each included 52 weeks and fiscal 2019 included 53 weeks.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America ("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 estimated profitability of long-term
contracts, indirect billing rates, allowances for doubtful accounts, inventories, right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease
liabilities, fair value and impairment of intangible assets and goodwill, income taxes, pension benefits, stock-based
compensation expense and contingencies. These 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.

Operating Cycle

Our operating cycle for long-term contracts may be greater than one year and is measured by the average time
intervening between the inception and the completion of those contracts.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 67

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Business Combinations, Investments and Variable Interest Entities

Business Combinations

The accounting for business combinations requires management to make judgments and estimates related to the
fair value of assets acquired, including the identification and valuation of intangible assets, as well as liabilities and
contingencies assumed. Such judgments and estimates directly impact the amount of goodwill recognized in
connection with an acquisition. Estimating the fair value of acquired assets and assumed liabilities, including
intangibles, requires judgments about expected future cash flows, weighted-average cost of capital, discount rates
and expected long-term growth rates.

Investments

Investments in entities and corporate joint ventures where we have a non-controlling ownership interest but over
which we have the ability to exercise significant influence, are accounted for under the equity method of accounting.
We recognize our proportionate share of the entities' net income or loss and do not consolidate the entities' assets
and liabilities.

Equity investments in entities over which we do not have the ability to exercise significant influence and whose
securities do not have a readily determinable fair value are carried at cost or cost net of other-than-temporary
impairments.

Variable Interest Entities

We occasionally form joint ventures and/or enter into arrangements with special purpose limited liability companies
for the purpose of bidding and executing on specific projects. We analyze each such arrangement to determine
whether it represents a VIE. If the arrangement is determined to be a VIE, we assess whether we are the primary
beneficiary of the VIE and are consequently required to consolidate the VIE.

Divestitures

From time-to-time, we may dispose (or management may commit to plans to dispose) of strategic or non-strategic
components of the business. Divestitures representing a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect in
operations and financial results are classified as discontinued operations, whereas non-strategic divestitures remain
in continuing operations.

Restructuring Expenses

Restructuring expenses are incurred in connection with programs aimed at reducing our costs. Restructuring costs
may include one-time termination of benefits, costs to terminate contracts and other permanent exit costs to
consolidate or close facilities directly related to the restructuring program.

One-time involuntary termination benefits are recognized as a liability at estimated fair value when the plan of
termination has been communicated to employees and certain other criteria are met. Ongoing termination benefit
arrangements are recognized as a liability at estimated fair value when it is probable that amounts will be paid and
such amounts are reasonably estimable. Costs associated with exit or disposal activities, including the related one-
time and ongoing involuntary termination benefits, are included as "Acquisition, integration and restructuring costs"
on the consolidated statements of income.

Revenue Recognition

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 68

LEIDOS HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

To determine the proper revenue recognition, we first evaluate whether we have a duly approved and enforceable
contract with a customer, in which the rights of the parties and payment terms are identified, and collectability is
probable. We also evaluate whether two or more contracts should be combined and accounted for as a single
contract, including the task orders issued under an indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity ("IDIQ") award. In addition,
we assess contract modifications to determine whether changes to existing contracts should be accounted for as
part of the original contract or as a separate contract. Contract modifications generally relate to changes in contract
specifications and requirements and do not add distinct services, and therefore are accounted for as part of the
original contract. If contract modifications add distinct goods or services and increase the contract value by an
amount that reflects the standalone selling price, those modifications are accounted for as separate contracts.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 69

LEIDOS HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

On FFP contracts requiring system integration and cost-plus contracts with variable consideration, revenue is
recognized over time generally using a method that measures the extent of progress towards completion of a
performance obligation, principally using a cost-input method (referred to as the cost-to-cost method). Under the
cost-to-cost method, revenue is recognized based on the proportion of total costs incurred to estimated total costs-
at-completion ("EAC"). A performance obligation's EAC includes all direct costs such as materials, labor,
subcontract costs, overhead and a ratable portion of general and administrative costs. In addition, an EAC of a
performance obligation includes future losses estimated to be incurred on onerous contracts, as and when known.
On certain other contracts, principally T&M, FP-LOE and CPFF, revenue is generally recognized using the right-to-
invoice practical expedient as we are contractually able to invoice the customer based on the control transferred to
the customer. Additionally, on maintenance (generally FFP) performance obligations, revenue is recognized over
time using a straight-line method as the control of the services is provided to the customer evenly over the period of
performance.

Contract Costs

Contract costs generally include direct costs such as labor, materials, subcontract costs and indirect costs
identifiable with or allocable to a specific contract. Costs are expensed as incurred unless they qualify for deferral
and capitalization. Contract costs incurred for U.S. government contracts, including indirect costs, are subject to
audit and adjustment by the Defense Contract Audit Agency ("DCAA") (see "Note 24—Contingencies").

Pre-contract Costs

Costs incurred on projects as pre-contract costs are deferred as assets when we have been requested by the
customer to begin work under a new arrangement prior to contract execution and it is probable that we will recover
the costs through the issuance of a contract. Pre-contract costs are amortized over the contract period of
performance or a specified period of performance.

Transition Costs

Under certain service contracts, costs are incurred, usually at the beginning of the contract performance, to
transition the services, employees and equipment to or from the customer, a prior contract or prior contractor. These
costs are generally capitalized as deferred assets and amortized on a straight-line basis over the anticipated term of
the contract or a specified period of performance, including unexercised option periods that are reasonably certain
of being exercised.

Project Assets

Purchases of project assets are capitalized for specific contracts where we maintain ownership of the asset over the
life of the contract and the benefit is received over a period of time. Project assets include enterprise software
licenses, dedicated hardware, maintenance agreements and significant material purchases and other costs incurred
on contracts. Project assets are amortized from the balance sheet using the straight-line method over the estimated
useful life of the asset or over the expected term of the period of performance, whichever is shorter.

Changes in Estimates on Contracts

Changes in estimates related to contracts accounted for using the cost-to-cost method of accounting are recognized
in the period in which such changes are made for the inception-to-date effect of the changes, with the exception of
contracts acquired through a business combination, where the adjustment is made for the period commencing from
the date of acquisition.

Revenue Recognized from Prior Obligations

During fiscal 2020, 2019 and 2018, revenue recognized from performance obligations satisfied in previous periods
was $40 million, $56 million and $102 million, respectively. The changes primarily relate to revisions of variable
consideration, including award and incentive fees, and revisions to estimates at completion resulting from changes
in contract scope, mitigation of contract risks or due to true-ups of contract estimates at the end of contract
performance.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

We classify indirect costs incurred within or allocated to our U.S. government customers as overhead (included in
"Cost of revenues") or general and administrative expenses in the same manner as such costs are defined in our
disclosure statements under U.S. government Cost Accounting Standards ("CAS").

Selling, general and administrative expenses include general and administrative, bid and proposal and company-
funded research and development expenses.

We conduct research and development activities under customer-funded contracts and with company-funded
research and development funds. Company-funded research and development expense was $73 million, $49
million and $46 million for fiscal 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Expenses for research and development
activities performed under customer contracts are charged directly to cost of revenues for those contracts.

Income Taxes

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 71

LEIDOS HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Our cash equivalents are primarily comprised of investments in several large institutional money market accounts,
with original maturity of three months or less. Outstanding payments are included within "Cash and cash
equivalents" and "Accounts payable and accrued liabilities" correspondingly on the consolidated balance sheets. At
January 1, 2021, and January 3, 2020, $237 million and $169 million, respectively, of outstanding payments were
included within "Cash and cash equivalents."

Restricted Cash

We have restricted cash balances, primarily representing advances from customers that are restricted as to use for
certain expenditures related to that customer's contract. Restricted cash balances are included as "Other current
assets" on the consolidated balance sheets.

Receivables

Receivables include amounts billed and currently due from customers, amounts billable where the right to
consideration is unconditional and amounts unbilled. Amounts billable and unbilled amounts are recognized at
estimated realizable value and consist of costs and fees, substantially all of which are expected to be billed and
collected generally within one year. Unbilled amounts also include rate variances that are billable upon negotiation
of final indirect rates with the DCAA.

Cost-reimbursable and T&M contracts are generally billed as costs are incurred. FFP contracts are billed either
based on milestones, which are the achievement of specific events as defined in the contract, or based on progress
payments, which are interim payments up to a designated amount of costs incurred as work progresses. On certain
contracts, the customer withholds a certain percentage of the contract price (retainage). These withheld amounts
are included within unbilled receivables and are billed upon contract completion or the occurrence of a specified
event, and when negotiation of final indirect rates with the U.S. government is complete. Based on our historical
experience, the write-offs of retention balances have not been significant.

When events or conditions indicate that amounts outstanding from customers may become uncollectible, an
allowance is estimated and recorded.

Amounts billed and collected on contracts but not yet recorded as revenue because we have not performed our
obligation under the arrangement with a customer are deferred and included within "Accounts payable and accrued
liabilities" or "Other long-term liabilities" on the consolidated balance sheets.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of accounts
receivable and derivatives. Since our receivables are primarily with the U.S. government, we do not have exposure
to a material credit risk. We manage our credit risk related to derivatives through the use of multiple counterparties
with high credit standards.

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or estimated net realizable value. Generally, raw material inventory is
valued using the average cost method. Work-in-process inventory includes raw material costs plus labor costs,
including fringe benefits and allocable overhead costs. The majority of finished goods inventory consists of
technology and security products, inspection systems, baggage scanning equipment and small glide munitions.
Inventory is evaluated against historical and planned usage to determine appropriate provisions for obsolete
inventory.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the fair value of consideration transferred, plus the fair value of any non-
controlling interests in the acquiree, over the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the
acquisition date. Goodwill is not amortized, but instead is tested annually for impairment at the reporting unit level
and tested more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Our
policy is to perform our annual goodwill impairment evaluation as of the first day of the fourth quarter of our fiscal
year. During fiscal 2020 and 2019, we had seven and six reporting units, respectively, for the purpose of testing
goodwill for impairment.

Goodwill is evaluated for impairment either under a qualitative assessment option or a quantitative approach
depending on the facts and circumstances of a reporting unit, consideration of the excess of a reporting unit's fair
value over its carrying amount in previous assessments and changes in business environment.

When performing a qualitative assessment, we consider factors including, but not limited to, current macroeconomic
conditions, industry and market conditions, cost factors, financial performance and other events relevant to the
entity or reporting unit under evaluation to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a
reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If we determine that it is more likely than not that a reporting unit's fair
value is less than its carrying amount, a quantitative goodwill impairment test is performed.

When performing a quantitative goodwill impairment test, the reporting unit carrying value is compared to its fair
value. Goodwill is deemed impaired if, and the impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which, the reporting
unit carrying value exceeds its fair value.

We estimate the fair value of each reporting unit using Level 3 inputs when a quantitative analysis is performed.

Intangible Assets

Acquired intangible assets with finite lives and internally developed software are amortized using the method that
best reflects how their economic benefits are utilized or, if a pattern of economic benefits cannot be reliably
determined, on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Program intangible assets are amortized over
their respective estimated useful lives in proportion to the pattern of economic benefit based on expected future
discounted cash flows. Backlog and trade name intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their
estimated useful lives. Customer relationships and software and technology intangible assets are amortized either
on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives or over their respective estimated useful lives in proportion
to the pattern of economic benefit based on expected future discounted cash flows, as deemed appropriate.

Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the following periods:

Backlog

Customer relationships

Programs
Software and technology

Trade names

Estimated useful lives (in years)

8-10
4-13

3-15

Intangible assets with finite lives are assessed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Purchases of property, plant and equipment, including purchases of software and software licenses, as well as
costs associated with major renewals and improvements are capitalized. Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals
and improvements are expensed as incurred.

Construction in Progress ("CIP") is used to accumulate all costs for projects that are not yet complete. CIP balances
are transferred to the appropriate asset account when the asset is capitalized and ready for its intended use.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 73

LEIDOS HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

When assets are sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are

We evaluate our long-lived assets for potential impairment whenever there is evidence that events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable and the carrying amount of the asset
exceeds its estimated fair value.

Leases

Lessee

We have facilities and equipment lease arrangements. An arrangement is determined to be a lease at inception if it
conveys the right to control the use of identified property and equipment for a period of time in exchange for
consideration. ROU assets represent the right to use an underlying asset over the lease term and lease liabilities
represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease.

ROU assets and lease liabilities are recorded on the consolidated balance sheet at lease commencement date
based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term. We generally do not know
the implicit rate for our leases; therefore, the discount rate used is our incremental borrowing rate which is
determined based on the rate of interest that we would have to pay to borrow an amount equal to the lease
payments on a collateralized basis over a similar term. An ROU asset is initially measured by the present value of
the remaining lease payments, plus initial direct costs and prepaid lease payments, less any lease incentives
received before commencement. The remaining lease cost is allocated over the remaining lease term on a straight-
line basis unless another systematic or rational basis is more representative of the pattern in which the underlying
asset is expected to be used. ROU assets are evaluated for impairment in a manner consistent with the treatment of
other long-lived assets.

Certain facility leases contain options to renew or extend the terms of the lease which are included in the
determination of the ROU assets and lease liabilities when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise the option.
Leases may also include variable lease payments such as an escalation clause based on consumer price index
rates, maintenance costs and utilities. Variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate are included in the
determination of ROU assets and lease liabilities using the index or rate at the lease commencement date, whereas
variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or rate are recorded as lease expense in the period
incurred. At January 1, 2021, we did not have any lease agreements with residual value guarantees.

We use the practical expedient to not separate non-lease components from lease components and instead account
for both components as a single lease. The practical expedient is applied to all material classes of leased assets.

The related lease payments on short-term facilities and equipment leases are recognized as expense on a straight-
line basis over the lease term.

ROU assets are assessed for potential impairment whenever there is evidence that events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable and the carrying amount of the
asset exceeds its estimated fair value. This includes an establishment of a plan of abandonment, which occurs
when we have committed to a plan to abandon the lease before the end of its previously estimated useful life and
there is no expectation that we will re-enter or re-purpose the space, including the fact that it cannot be subleased
or transferred to another program within Leidos.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 74

LEIDOS HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Lessor

We are a lessor on certain equipment sales-type and operating lease arrangements with our customers. To be
considered lease revenue, the contract must contain a specified asset, we must not have a substantive substitution
right, the customer must have the right to direct the use of the specified asset during the period of use and the
customer must have the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefit of the specified asset.

Certain arrangements may contain variable payments that depend on an index or rate and are measured using the
index or rate on the commencement date. Variable payments that are not included in the net investments are
recorded as revenue as incurred. Arrangements may also contain options to renew or extend the performance
period. Option periods are included in the lease term if we determine that it is reasonably certain the customer will
exercise an option.

We have arrangements that contain both lease and non-lease components. We account for them as one unit of
account if the timing and pattern of transfer is identical for both the lease and the non-lease components and the
lease component would be classified as an operating lease if accounted for separately. If both criteria are met and
the predominant component is a lease, then the entire arrangement will be accounted for in accordance with ASC
842. If we account for an arrangement both as a lease and non-lease component, then the allocation of
consideration for each component will be based the relative standalone sales price.

Fair Value Measurements

The accounting standard for fair value measurements establishes a three-level fair 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 quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are observable either
directly or indirectly or quoted prices that are not active (Level 2); and unobservable inputs in which there is little or
no market data (e.g., discounted cash flow and other similar pricing models), which requires us to develop our own
assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability (Level 3).

The accounting guidance for fair value measurements requires that we maximize the use of observable inputs and
minimize the use of unobservable inputs in determining fair value. The accounting guidance provides for the
irrevocable option to elect, on a contract-by-contract basis, to measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair
value at inception of the contract and record any subsequent changes in fair value in earnings. We have not made
fair value option elections on any of our financial assets and liabilities.

The fair value of financial instruments is determined based on quoted market prices, if available, or management's
best estimate (see "Financial Instruments" below).

Management evaluates its investments for other-than-temporary impairment at each balance sheet date. When
testing long-term investments for recovery of carrying value, the fair value of long-term investments is determined
using various valuation techniques and factors, such as market prices of comparable companies (Level 2 input),
discounted cash flow models (Level 3 input) and recent capital transactions of the portfolio companies being valued
(Level 3 input). If management determines that an other-than-temporary decline in the fair value of an investment
has occurred, an impairment loss is recognized to reduce the investment to its estimated fair value.

Our 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, we generally classify non-
financial instruments as either Level 2 or Level 3 fair value measurements.

Financial Instruments

We are exposed to certain market risks which are inherent in certain transactions entered into during the normal
course of business. These transactions include sales or purchase contracts denominated in foreign currencies and
exposure to changing interest rates. We manage our risk to changes in interest rates and foreign currency
exchange rates through the use of derivative instruments.

For fixed rate borrowings, we use variable interest rate swaps, effectively converting fixed rate borrowings to
variable rate borrowings. These swaps are designated as fair value hedges. The fair value of these interest rate
swaps is determined based on observed values for underlying interest rates on the LIBOR yield curve (Level 2).

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 75

LEIDOS HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For variable rate borrowings, we use fixed interest rate swaps, effectively converting a portion of the variable
interest rate payments to fixed interest rate payments. These swaps are designated as cash flow hedges. The fair
value of these interest rate swaps is determined based on observed values for the underlying interest rates (Level
2).

We enter into foreign currency forward contracts in order to mitigate fluctuations in our earnings and cash flows due
to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The foreign currency forward contracts are not designated as
hedges and hedge accounting does not apply. We do not hold derivative instruments for trading or speculative
purposes.

Our defined benefit plan assets consist of investments in pooled funds that contain investments with values based
on quoted market prices, but for which the pools are not valued on a daily quoted market basis (Level 2).

Stock-Based Compensation

We account for stock-based compensation at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and recognize
expense over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period, net of an estimated forfeiture rate.

The fair value of restricted stock awards and performance-based stock awards is based on the closing price of
Leidos common stock on the date of grant. The fair value of performance-based stock awards with market
conditions is based on using the Monte Carlo simulation.

The fair value of stock option awards granted is based on using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. The
estimation of stock option fair value requires management to make estimates and judgments about, among other
things, employee exercise behavior, forfeiture rates and the expected volatility of Leidos common stock over the
expected option term. These judgments directly affect the amount of compensation expense that will ultimately be
recognized.

Foreign Currency

The financial statements of consolidated international subsidiaries, for which the functional currency is not the U.S.
dollar, are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate at each balance sheet date for assets and liabilities
and a weighted average exchange rate over the reporting period for revenues, expenses, gains and losses.
Translation adjustments are recorded as accumulated other comprehensive loss in stockholders' equity. Gains and
losses due to movements in foreign currency exchange rates are recognized as "Other (expense) income, net" on
the consolidated statements of income.

Note 4—Revenues

Remaining Performance Obligations

Remaining performance obligations represent the expected value of exercised contracts, both funded and
unfunded, less revenue recognized to date. Remaining performance obligations do not include unexercised option
periods and future potential task orders expected to be awarded under IDIQ contracts, General Services
Administration Schedule or other master agreement contract vehicles, with the exception of certain IDIQ contracts
where task orders are not competitively awarded and separately priced but instead are used as a funding
mechanism, and where there is a basis for estimating future revenues and funding on future anticipated task orders.

As of January 1, 2021, we had $15.7 billion of remaining performance obligations, approximately 50%, 16% and
34% of which are expected to be recognized as revenues in fiscal 2021, fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2023 and thereafter,
respectively.

Disaggregation of Revenues

We disaggregate revenues by customer-type, contract-type and geographic location for each of our reportable
segments. These categories represent how the nature, timing and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows are
affected.

Fiscal 2019 and 2018 amounts have been recast for the contracts that were reassigned from the Civil reportable

The majority of our revenues are generated from U.S. government contracts, either as a prime contractor or as a
subcontractor to other contractors. Revenues from the U.S. government can be adversely impacted by spending
caps or changes in budgetary priorities of the U.S. government, as well as delays in program start dates or the

Cost-reimbursement and FP-IF contracts are generally lower risk and have lower profits. T&M and FP-LOE
contracts are also lower risk but profits may vary depending on actual labor costs compared to negotiated contract
billing rates. FFP contracts offer the potential for higher profits while increasing the exposure to risk of cost
overruns.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 78

LEIDOS HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Our international business operations, primarily located in Australia and the U.K., are subject to additional and
different risks than our U.S. business. Failure to comply with U.S. government laws and regulations applicable to
international business, such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act or U.S. export control regulations, could have an
adverse impact on our business with the U.S. government.

In some countries, there is an increased chance for economic, legal or political changes that may adversely affect
the performance of our services, sales of products or repatriation of profits. International transactions can also
involve increased financial and legal risks arising from foreign exchange variability, imposition of tariffs or additional
taxes and restrictive trade policies and delays or failure to collect amounts due to differing legal systems.

Revenues by contract-type, customer-type and geographic location exclude lease income of $100 million and $118
million for fiscal 2020 and 2019, respectively (see "Note 12—Leases").

Note 5—Contract Assets and Liabilities

Performance obligations are satisfied either over time as work progresses or at a point in time. FFP contracts are
typically billed to the customer using milestone payments while cost-reimbursable and T&M contracts are typically
billed to the customer on a monthly or bi-weekly basis as indicated by the negotiated billing terms and conditions of
the contract. As a result, the timing of revenue recognition, customer billings and cash collections for each contract
results in a net contract asset or liability at the end of each reporting period.

Contract assets consist of unbilled receivables, which is the amount of revenue recognized that exceeds the amount
billed to the customer, where right to payment is not just subject to the passage of time. Unbilled receivables
exclude amounts billable where the right to consideration is unconditional. Contract liabilities consist of deferred
revenue.

The components of contract assets and contract liabilities consisted of the following:

Balance sheet line item

Contract assets - current:
Unbilled receivables

Receivables, net

Contract liabilities - current:

Deferred revenue

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities

Contract liabilities - non-current:

The increases in unbilled receivables and deferred revenue were primarily due to the acquisitions of Dynetics, Inc.
and L3Harris Technologies' security detection and automation businesses. The increase in deferred revenue was
also attributable to advance payments received from customers offset by revenue recognized during the period.

Revenue recognized during fiscal 2020 and 2019 of $275 million and $207 million, respectively, was included as a
contract liability at January 3, 2020 and December 28, 2018, respectively.

There were no impairment losses recognized on contract assets during fiscal 2020, 2019 and 2018.

Note 6—Acquisitions

We may acquire businesses as part of our growth strategy to provide new or enhance existing capabilities and
offerings to customers. During fiscal 2020, we completed the acquisition of Dynetics, Inc. ("Dynetics") and L3Harris
Technologies' security detection and automation businesses (the "SD&A Businesses"). During fiscal 2019, we
completed the acquisition of IMX Medical Management Services, Inc. and its affiliated businesses ("IMX").

we completed the acquisition of 1901 Group (see "Note 26—Subsequent Events").

SD&A Businesses and Dynetics Acquisitions

SD&A Businesses Acquisition

On May 4, 2020 (the "Transaction Date"), we completed the acquisition of the SD&A Businesses. The SD&A
Businesses were acquired for cash consideration of $1,020 million, net of $26 million of cash acquired. The
purchase consideration includes the initial cash payment of $1,015 million plus a $31 million payment for contractual
net working capital acquired. The net working capital payment has been reflected within investing activities in the
consolidated statement of cash flows. The SD&A Businesses provide airport and critical infrastructure screening
products, automated tray return systems and other industrial automation products. The addition of the SD&A
Businesses will expand the scope and scale of our global security detection and automation offerings.

The preliminary fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the Transaction Date were as follows (in
millions):

the acquired assets and liabilities assumed, primarily including, but not limited to receivables, inventory, intangible
assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and deferred taxes. The purchase price allocation is subject to
change as we complete our determination of the fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities assumed, the impact
of which could be material.

The goodwill represents intellectual capital and the acquired assembled workforce. Of the preliminary goodwill
recognized, $425 million is deductible for tax purposes.

Lockheed Martin Transaction

On August 16, 2016, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Leidos Holdings, Inc. merged with Lockheed Martin's Information
Systems and Global Solutions business (the "IS&GS Business") in a Reverse Morris Trust transaction (the "IS&GS
Transactions").

On January 10, 2018, the final amount of the net working capital of the IS&GS Business was determined through a
binding arbitration proceeding in accordance with the Separation Agreement with Lockheed Martin. On January 18,
2018, the final working capital amount of $105 million was paid to Lockheed Martin, of which $24 million and $81
million was presented as cash flows from operating and investing activities, respectively, on the consolidated
statements of cash flows.

Additionally, during fiscal 2018, a tax indemnification liability of $23 million was paid to Lockheed Martin in
accordance with the Tax Matters Agreement, which was presented as cash flows from financing activities on the
consolidated statements of cash flows.

During fiscal 2020, 2019 and 2018, we incurred $1 million, $3 million and $29 million, respectively, of integration
costs related to the IS&GS Business. These costs have been recorded within Corporate and presented in
"Acquisition, integration and restructuring costs" on the consolidated statements of income.

Note 7—Divestitures

Health Staff Augmentation Business

On September 12, 2019, our Health segment disposed of its health staff augmentation business that was primarily
focused on implementation and optimization services to hospital centers. During the quarter ended January 3, 2020,
working capital adjustments were finalized, resulting in a final sales price of $13 million. This consideration included
$12 million of cash proceeds and expenses the buyer paid on Leidos' behalf. Net assets of $12 million were
divested. This disposition did not meet the criteria to be classified as a discontinued operation in the financial
statements.

Commercial Cybersecurity Business

On February 20, 2019, our Civil segment disposed of its commercial cybersecurity business in order to focus on
providing solutions, including cybersecurity, to our core markets of governments and highly regulated industries. The
commercial cybersecurity business was divested for a final sales price of $166 million. A pre-tax gain on sale of $88
million was recorded, net of $68 million of assets divested and $10 million in transaction related costs. The net
assets divested included $14 million of receivables, $57 million of goodwill and $13 million of accounts payable and
accrued liabilities. The gain was recorded in "Other (expense) income, net" on the consolidated statements of

(1) Carrying amount includes accumulated impairment losses of $369 million and $117 million within the Health and Civil segments, respectively.
(2) Immaterial correction was recorded with respect to fair value of assets and liabilities acquired from the IS&GS Transactions.

Effective the beginning of fiscal 2020, certain contracts were reassigned from the Civil reportable segment to the
Defense Solutions reportable segment (see "Note 23—Business Segments"). This change resulted in the
reallocation of $429 million of goodwill between the reporting units within the two reportable segments. We
evaluated goodwill for impairment for certain reporting units using either a quantitative step one analysis or
qualitative analysis, both before and after the changes were made, and determined that goodwill was not impaired.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 and 2019, we performed a qualitative analysis for all reporting units and
determined that it was more likely than not that the fair values of the reporting units were in excess of the individual
reporting units carrying values, and as a result, a quantitative step one analysis was not necessary.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 84

LEIDOS HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In fiscal 2018, we performed a qualitative and quantitative analysis on our reporting units. Based on the qualitative
analysis performed during our annual impairment evaluation for fiscal 2018 for certain of our reporting units, it was
determined that it was more likely than not that the fair values of the reporting units were in excess of the individual
reporting unit carrying values, and as a result, a quantitative step one analysis was not necessary. Additionally,
based on the results of the quantitative step one analysis for certain other of our reporting units, it was determined
that the fair value was in excess of the individual reporting units carrying values.

As a result, no goodwill impairments were identified as part of the annual goodwill impairment evaluation for the
periods mentioned above.

Sale and Leaseback Agreements

Gaithersburg, MD Property

On December 31, 2018, we closed the sale and leaseback agreement relating to our land and building in
Gaithersburg, MD. We received proceeds of $31 million, net of selling costs, for the property, which had a carrying
value of $31 million.

During the quarter ended March 30, 2018, an impairment charge of $7 million associated with this property was
recorded within Corporate.

San Diego, CA Properties

On December 28, 2018, we closed the sale and leaseback agreement relating to two buildings and the adjacent
land in San Diego, CA for consideration of $79 million, net of selling costs. The carrying value of the land and
buildings was $14 million. We received cash proceeds of $14 million upon closing, which were recorded as
financing activities on the consolidated statements of cash flows, and recognized a short-term receivable for the
remaining $65 million of consideration.

Prior to the adoption of ASC 842, the consideration of $79 million was accounted for as a financing transaction and
a note payable was recorded. Under ASC 842, the transaction qualified as a sale-leaseback and consequently the
debt of $79 million and the carrying value of the property of $14 million, net of the related tax impact of $17 million,
were reclassified into retained earnings as a cumulative effect adjustment. The proceeds of $65 million received in
fiscal 2019 were recorded as investing activities on the consolidated statements of cash flows.

As of January 1, 2021, our derivatives primarily consisted of the cash flow interest rate swaps on $1.1 billion of the
variable rate senior unsecured term loan (see "Note 14—Derivative Instruments"). The fair value of the cash flow
interest rate swaps is determined based on observed values for underlying interest rates on the LIBOR yield curve
(Level 2 inputs).

Financial instruments measured on a recurring basis at fair value also includes our defined benefit plan assets
(Level 2 inputs). See "Note 21—Retirement Plans" for further details on these investments.

The carrying amounts of our financial instruments, other than derivatives, which include cash equivalents, accounts
receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, are reasonable estimates of their related fair values. The
carrying value of our notes receivable of $15 million and $20 million as of January 1, 2021 and January 3, 2020,
respectively, approximates 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).

As of January 1, 2021, and January 3, 2020, the fair value of debt was $5.2 billion and $3.1 billion, respectively, and
the carrying amount was $4.7 billion and $3.0 billion, respectively (see "Note 15—Debt"). The fair value of long-term
debt is determined based on current interest rates available for debt with terms and maturities similar to our existing
debt arrangements (Level 2 inputs).

On May 4, 2020 and January 31, 2020, non-financial instruments measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis
were recorded in connection with the acquisitions of the SD&A Businesses and Dynetics, respectively. Additionally,
on August 15, 2019, non-financial instruments measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis were recorded in
connection with the acquisition of IMX. The fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were
determined using Level 3 inputs. See "Note 6—Acquisitions" for further details on these acquisitions. We also had
real estate property measured at fair value (Level 2 inputs) on July 3, 2020 and March 30, 2018, which resulted in
an impairment charge of $11 million and $7 million, respectively (see "Note 12—Leases" and "Note 11—Property,
Plant and Equipment," respectively). As of January 1, 2021, and January 3, 2020, we did not have any assets or
liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The cash flows associated with the interest rate swaps are classified as operating activities in the consolidated
statements of cash flows.

Fair Value Hedges

We held interest rate swap agreements to hedge the fair value of the $450 million fixed rate 4.45% senior
unsecured notes maturing in December 2020 (the "2020 Notes"). The objective of these instruments was to hedge
the 2020 Notes against changes in fair value due to the variability in the six-month LIBOR rate (the benchmark
interest rate). Under the terms of the interest rate swap agreements, we received semi-annual interest payments at
the coupon rate of 4.45% and paid variable interest based on the six-month LIBOR rate.

The interest rate swaps were accounted for as a fair value hedge of the 2020 Notes and qualified for the shortcut
method of hedge accounting, which allows for the assumption of no ineffectiveness. The resulting changes in the
fair value of the interest rate swaps were fully offset by the changes in the fair value of the underlying debt (the
hedged item).

The fair value of the 2020 Notes were stated at an amount that reflected changes in the six-month LIBOR rate
subsequent to the inception of the interest rate swaps through the reporting date.

On September 1, 2020, we repaid the 2020 Notes in full (see "Note 15—Debt"). In conjunction with the retirement of
the 2020 Notes, we terminated our fair value hedge and received a final settlement of $2 million.

Cash Flow Hedges

We have interest rate swap agreements to hedge the cash flows of a portion of our variable rate senior unsecured
term loans (the "Variable Rate Loans"). The objective of these instruments is to reduce variability in the forecasted
interest payments of the Variable Rate Loans, which is based on the LIBOR rate. Under the terms of the interest
rate swap agreements, we will receive monthly variable interest payments based on the one-month LIBOR rate and
will pay interest at a fixed rate. In February 2018, we entered into interest rate swap agreements to hedge the cash
flows of an additional $250 million of our Variable Rate Loans. The interest rate swap agreements on $1.1 billion of
the Variable Rate Loans had a maturity date of December 2021 and a fixed interest rate of 1.08%. The interest rate
swap agreements on $300 million and $250 million of the Variable Rate Loans both had a maturity date of August
2022 and fixed interest rates of 1.66% and 2.59%, respectively. The counterparties to these agreements are
financial institutions.

In September 2018, we terminated our existing interest rate swaps. The net derivative gain of $60 million related to
the discontinued cash flow hedge remained within accumulated other comprehensive loss and is being reclassified
into earnings over the remaining life of the original hedge as the hedged variable rate debt impacts earnings.

Additionally, in September 2018, we entered into new interest rate swap agreements to hedge the cash flows of
$1.5 billion of the Variable Rate Loans. These interest rate swap agreements have a maturity date of August 2025
and a fixed interest rate of 3.00%. As of January 1, 2021, the notional value of the interest rate swap agreements
was $1.1 billion.

The interest rate swap transactions were accounted for as cash flow hedges. The gain (loss) on the swap is
reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) and is reclassified into earnings when the interest
payments on the underlying hedged items impact earnings. A qualitative assessment of hedge effectiveness is
performed on a quarterly basis, unless facts and circumstances indicate the hedge may no longer be highly
effective.

Senior Notes

Notes Issuance

On October 8, 2020, we issued and sold $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of fixed-rate senior notes maturing
in February 2031 (the "2031 Notes"). The 2031 Notes are senior unsecured obligations issued by Leidos, Inc. and
guaranteed by Leidos Holdings, Inc. The annual interest rate for the 2031 Notes is 2.30%. The 2031 Notes have not
been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and may not be offered or sold
in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.

The proceeds from the 2031 Notes were used for general corporate purposes, including to repay all of the
outstanding obligations in respect of principal, interest and fees under the 364-day Term Loan and to repay a portion
of the outstanding loans under the five-year Term Loan Facility.

Additionally, on May 12, 2020, we issued and sold $500 million senior notes maturing in May 2023 (the "2023
Notes"), $500 million senior notes maturing in May 2025 (the "2025 Notes") and $750 million senior notes maturing
in May 2030 (the "2030 Notes", and together with the 2023 Notes and 2025 Notes, the "Notes"). The Notes are
senior unsecured obligations issued by Leidos, Inc. and guaranteed by Leidos Holdings, Inc. The annual interest
rate for the 2023 Notes, 2025 Notes and 2030 Notes is 2.95%, 3.63% and 4.38%, respectively. The Notes have not
been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or
an applicable exemption from registration requirements.

The proceeds from the Notes were used to repay all of the outstanding obligations in respect of principal, interest
and fees under the January 31, 2020 Bridge Facility and to repay a portion of the outstanding loans under the
February 12, 2020 Facility.

On October 8, 2020 and May 12, 2020, we entered into registration rights agreements, pursuant to which we agreed
to use reasonable best efforts to file registration statements to permit the exchange of the 2031 Notes and the
Notes, respectively, and related guarantees for registered notes having terms substantially identical thereto, or in
the alternative, the registered resale of the 2031 Notes and the Notes, respectively, and related guarantees, under
certain circumstances. Under both agreements, the registration statements are to be filed no later than 420 days
after the original issuance of the securities. If we fail to satisfy our obligations under either registration rights
agreement, we will be required to pay additional annual interest equal to 0.25% of the aggregate outstanding on the
principal amount to holders of the respective notes.

Notes Retirement

On September 1, 2020, we retired our 2020 Notes. Cash on hand was used to repay in full all indebtedness under,
and discharge and release all guarantees existing in connection with these notes.

Term Loan Financing

On June 18, 2020 (the "Agreement Date"), we entered into a 364-day Term Loan Credit Agreement, which provided
for a senior unsecured term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $300 million (the "Term Loan"), with
maturity 364 days after the Agreement Date.

The proceeds of the Term Loan and cash on hand on the Agreement Date were used to repay in full all
indebtedness under, and discharge and release all guarantees existing in connection with the delayed-draw term
loan facility.

Borrowings under the Term Loan Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate determined, at our option, based on either
an alternate base rate or a LIBOR rate plus, in each case, an applicable margin that varies depending on our credit
rating. During the period the Term Loan borrowing was outstanding, the applicable margin for LIBOR-denominated
borrowings was 2.00%.

On October 8, 2020, in connection with the issuance of the 2031 Notes, the outstanding principal on the Term Loan
Credit Agreement was fully repaid.

Delayed-Draw Term Loan Facility

On February 12, 2020, we entered into a senior unsecured delayed-draw term loan facility providing for $1.0 billion
of commitments from certain financial institutions in connection with the acquisition of the SD&A Businesses. On
May 4, 2020, we completed our acquisition of the SD&A Businesses and drew on the Facility in an aggregate
principal amount of $1.0 billion (the "Facility"). The proceeds of the Facility and cash on hand were used to fund the
purchase of the SD&A Businesses.

On May 12, 2020, in connection with the issuance of the $1.75 billion Notes, $500 million of the principal
outstanding on the Facility was repaid. During May and June 2020, we made $200 million of principal repayments
on the Facility. On June 18, 2020, in connection with the 364-day Term Loan Credit Agreement, the remaining
principal outstanding on the Facility was fully repaid.

Bridge Facility

On January 31, 2020, in connection with the acquisition of Dynetics, we entered into a Bridge Credit Agreement with
certain financial institutions, which provided for a senior unsecured 364-day bridge loan facility in an aggregate
principal amount of $1.25 billion (the "Bridge Facility"), with maturity 364 days after the Acquisition Date.

The proceeds of the Bridge Facility and cash on hand on the Acquisition Date were used to fund the purchase of
Dynetics.

Borrowings under the Bridge Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate determined, at our option, based on either an
alternate base rate or a LIBOR rate, plus, in each case, an applicable margin that varies depending on our credit
rating, subject to increases by 0.25% every 90 days. During the period the Bridge Facility borrowing was
outstanding, the applicable margins for LIBOR-denominated borrowings were 1.38% and 1.63%. Additionally, we
paid to each lender under the Bridge Facility a duration fee equal to 0.50% of the aggregate outstanding principal
amount of the loans under the Bridge Facility 90 days after the Acquisition Date.

On May 12, 2020, in connection with the issuance of the Notes, the outstanding principal on the Bridge Credit
Agreement was fully repaid.

Term Loans and Revolving Credit Facility Refinancing

On January 17, 2020 (the "Closing Date"), we entered into a Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with certain
financial institutions, which provided for a senior unsecured term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of
$1.9 billion (the "Term Loan Facility") and a $750 million senior unsecured revolving facility (the "Revolving Facility"
and, together with the Term Loan Facility, the "Credit Facilities"). The Credit Facilities will mature five years from the
Closing Date, subject to two additional one year extensions.

The proceeds of the Term Loan Facility and cash on hand on the Closing Date were used to repay in full all
indebtedness, and terminate all commitments, under, and discharge and release all guarantees and liens existing in
connection with the credit agreements entered into in August 2016 (the "Terminated Credit Agreements"). As a
result of the termination of the liens under the Terminated Credit Agreements, the liens securing the $450 million
notes due 2020 and $300 million notes due 2040 were also released and such notes became senior unsecured
obligations.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate determined, at our option, based on either an
alternate base rate or a LIBOR rate plus, in each case, an applicable margin that varies depending on our credit
rating. The applicable margin range for LIBOR-denominated borrowings is from 1.13% to 1.75%. Based on our
current ratings, the applicable margin for LIBOR-denominated borrowings is 1.38%.

The financial covenants in the Credit Agreement require that we maintain, as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, a
ratio of adjusted consolidated total debt to consolidated EBITDA of not more than 3.75 to 1.00, subject to two
increases to 4.50 to 1.00 following a material acquisition, and a ratio of EBITDA to consolidated interest expense of
not less than 3.50 to 1.00.

Principal Payments and Debt Issuance Costs

In addition to the refinancing activity noted above, we made principal payments on our long-term debt of
$731 million, $80 million, and $59 million during fiscal 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. This activity included
required principal payments on our term loans of $72 million, $69 million, and $46 million during fiscal 2020, 2019
and 2018, respectively. In April 2018, we made a required debt prepayment of $10 million on our senior secured
term loans. The prepayment was a result of the annual excess cash flow calculation clause in our Terminated Credit
Agreements. During fiscal 2020 and 2019, there were no borrowings under the credit facilities.

Principal payments are made quarterly on our variable rate senior unsecured term loan, with the majority of the
principal due at maturity. Interest on the variable rate senior unsecured term loan is payable on a periodic basis,
which must be at least quarterly. Interest on the senior fixed rate unsecured notes is payable on a semi-annual
basis with principal payments due at maturity.

In connection with the financing activity noted above, $68 million of debt discount and debt issuance costs related to
the debt and revolving credit facility were recognized, which were recorded as an offset against the carrying value of
debt and capitalized within "Other assets" in the consolidated balance sheets, respectively. For fiscal 2020,
$36 million of debt discount and debt issuance costs were written off related to the Terminated Credit Agreements
and loan facility repayments. Amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs was $16 million for fiscal 2020
and $10 million for fiscal 2019 and 2018.

The senior unsecured term loan, notes and revolving credit facility are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by
intercompany guarantees and contain certain customary restrictive covenants, including among other things,
restrictions on our ability to create liens and enter into sale and leaseback transactions under certain circumstances.
We were in compliance with all covenants as of January 1, 2021.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 97

LEIDOS HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 18—Earnings Per Share ("EPS")

Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income attributable to Leidos common stockholders by the basic weighted
average number of shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is calculated to give effect to all potentially dilutive common
shares that were outstanding during the reporting period. The dilutive effect of outstanding equity-based
compensation awards is reflected in diluted EPS by application of the treasury stock method, only in periods in
which such effect would have been dilutive for the period.

We issue unvested stock awards that have forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents. These stock
awards are dilutive common share equivalents subject to the treasury stock method.

The weighted average number of shares used to compute basic and diluted EPS attributable to Leidos stockholders
were:

Basic weighted average number of shares outstanding

Dilutive common share equivalents—stock options and other stock

awards

Diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding

Anti-dilutive stock-based awards are excluded from the weighted average number of shares outstanding used to
compute diluted EPS. For fiscal 2020 and 2019, there were no significant anti-diluted equity awards. For fiscal 2018,
there was 1 million of outstanding stock options and vesting stock awards that were anti-dilutive.

Share Repurchases

During fiscal 2020, 2019 and 2018, we made open market repurchases of our common stock for an aggregate
purchase price of $67 million, $25 million and $167 million, respectively. All shares repurchased were immediately
retired.

In the third quarter of fiscal 2019, we entered into an Accelerated Share Repurchase ("ASR") agreement with a
financial institution to repurchase shares of our outstanding common stock. We paid $200 million to the financial
institution and received 2.4 million shares. The purchase was recorded to "Additional paid-in capital" in the
consolidated balance sheets. All shares delivered were immediately retired.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2019, we entered into an ASR agreement with a financial institution to repurchase shares
of our outstanding common stock. We paid $200 million to the financial institution and received an initial and final
delivery of 2.6 million and 0.6 million shares, respectively. The purchase was recorded to "Additional paid-in capital"
in the consolidated balance sheets. All shares delivered were immediately retired.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018, we entered into an uncollared ASR agreement with a financial institution to
repurchase shares of our outstanding common stock. We paid $250 million to the financial institution and received
an initial and final delivery of 3.3 million and 0.7 million shares, respectively. The purchase was recorded to
"Additional paid-in capital" in the consolidated balance sheets. All shares delivered were immediately retired.

Note 19—Stock-Based Compensation

Plan Summaries

As of January 1, 2021, we had stock-based compensation awards outstanding under the following plans: the 2017
Omnibus Incentive Plan, the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended, and the 2006 Employee Stock Purchase
Plan, as amended ("ESPP"). We issue new shares upon the issuance of the vesting of stock units or exercising of
stock options under these plans.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 98

LEIDOS HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan provides Leidos and its affiliates' employees, directors and consultants the
opportunity to receive various types of stock-based compensation awards, such as stock options, restricted stock
units and performance-based awards, as well as cash awards. We grant service-based awards that generally vest
or become exercisable 25% a year over four years or cliff vest in three years. As of January 1, 2021, 4.0 million
shares of Leidos' stock were reserved for future issuance under the 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan and the 2006
Equity Incentive Plan.

We offer eligible employees the opportunity to defer restricted stock units into an equity-based deferred equity
compensation plan, the Key Executive Stock Deferral Plan ("KESDP"). Prior to 2013, we offered an additional
opportunity for deferrals into the Management Stock Compensation Plan ("MSCP"). Benefits from these plans are
payable in shares of Leidos' stock that are held in a trust for the purpose of funding shares to the plans' participants.
Restricted stock units deferred under the KESDP are counted against the total shares available for future issuance
under the 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan. All awards under the MSCP are fully vested and the plan does not provide
for a maximum number of shares available for future issuance.

Our ESPP allows eligible employees to purchase shares of Leidos' stock at a discount of up to 15% of the fair
market value on the date of purchase. During the first half of fiscal 2018, the discount was 5% of the fair market
value on the date of purchase, thereby resulting in the ESPP being non-compensatory. Effective the second half of
fiscal 2018, the discount was increased to 10% of the fair market value on the date of purchase, resulting in the
ESPP being compensatory. During fiscal 2020, 2019 and 2018, $32 million, $25 million and $11 million, respectively,
was received from ESPP plan participants for the issuance of Leidos' stock. A total of 3.8 million shares remain
available for future issuance under the ESPP.

Stock-based compensation and related tax benefits recognized under all plans were as follows:

Stock options are granted with exercise prices equal to the fair market value of Leidos' common stock on the date of
grant and for terms not greater than ten years. Stock options have a term of seven years and a vesting period of
four years, except for stock options granted to our outside directors, which have a vesting period of the earlier of
one year from grant date or the next annual meeting of stockholders following grant date.

The fair value of the stock option awards is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-
pricing model. The fair value of the stock option awards to employees are expensed on a straight-line basis over the
vesting period of four years, except for stock options granted to our outside directors, which is recognized over the
vesting period of one year or less.

During fiscal 2020, 2019 and 2018, we used a blended approach to measure expected volatility that is based on our
weighted average historical and implied volatilities.

The risk-free rate is derived using the yield curve of a zero-coupon U.S. Treasury bond with a maturity equal to the
expected term of the stock option on the grant date. During fiscal 2018, we utilized the simplified method for the
expected term, which represented an appropriate period of time that the options granted were expected to remain
outstanding between the weighted-average vesting period and end of the respective contractual term. Upon re-
examining our exercise history, the methodology used to calculate the expected term changed in fiscal 2019. Based
on actual historical settlement data, the midpoint scenario is utilized with a one-year grant date filter assumption for
outstanding options. We use historical data to estimate forfeitures and was derived in the same manner as in the
prior years presented.

The fair value of restricted stock units that vested in fiscal 2020, 2019 and 2018 was $58 million, $66 million and
$22 million, respectively. In addition, the fair value of dividend equivalents with respect to restricted stock units that
vested was immaterial for fiscal 2020 and $1 million for fiscal 2019 and 2018.

Performance-Based Stock Awards

Performance-based stock awards vest and the stock is issued at the end of a three-year period based upon the
achievement of specific performance criteria, with the number of shares ultimately awarded, if any, ranging up to
150% of the specified target awards. If performance is below the threshold level of performance, no shares will be
issued.

For awards granted during fiscal 2020, 2019 and 2018, the target number of shares of stock granted under the
awards will vest and the stock will be issued at the end of a three-year period based on a three-year cycle
performance period and the actual number of shares to be issued will be based upon the achievement of the three-
year cycle's performance criteria. Also, during fiscal 2020, 2019 and 2018, we granted performance-based awards
with market conditions. These market conditions grants represent the target number of shares and the actual
number of shares to be awarded upon vesting may be higher or lower depending upon the achievement of the
relevant market conditions. The target number of shares granted under the market conditions grants will vest and
the stock will be issued at the end of a three-year period based on the attainment of certain total shareholder return
performance measures and the employee's continued service through the vest date.

The effective tax rate for fiscal 2020 was favorably impacted primarily by federal research tax credits and excess tax
benefits related to employee stock-based payment transactions, partially offset by taxes related to foreign
operations.

The effective tax rate for fiscal 2018 was favorably impacted primarily by a decrease in valuation allowances arising
from the taxable conversion of a subsidiary and the utilization of capital losses, an increase in deferred tax assets
related to stock basis of a subsidiary held for sale, excess tax benefits related to employee stock-based payment
transactions and federal research tax credits.

losses and state tax credits, respectively. We also had foreign net operating losses of $46 million, which do not
expire. We expect to utilize $4 million of these foreign net operating losses.

Our valuation allowance for deferred tax assets was $16 million and $20 million as of January 1, 2021 and
January 3, 2020, respectively. The valuation allowance decreased by $4 million primarily due to releases related to
foreign withholding taxes and capital investments, partially offset by an increase related to foreign attributes not

We file income tax returns in the United States and various state and foreign jurisdictions. We participate in the
Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Compliance Assurance Process ("CAP"), a real-time audit of our consolidated
federal corporate income tax return. The IRS has examined our consolidated federal income tax returns through the
year ended January 3, 2020. For the year ended January 1, 2021, we were selected to participate in the phase of
CAP reserved for taxpayers whose risk of noncompliance does not warrant use of IRS resources. We believe that
participation in CAP should reduce tax-related uncertainties, if any. Additionally, with a few exceptions, as of
January 1, 2021, we are no longer subject to state, local, or foreign examinations by the tax authorities for fiscal
years ending on or before December 30, 2016.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 105

LEIDOS HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

During the next 12 months, it is reasonably possible that resolution of reviews by taxing authorities, both domestic
and international, could be reached with respect to $4 million of our unrecognized tax benefits, depending on the
timing of ongoing examinations, any litigation and expiration of statute of limitations, either because the tax positions
are sustained or because we agree to their disallowance and pay the related income tax. While we believe we have
adequate accruals for uncertain tax positions, the tax authorities may determine that we owe taxes in excess of
recorded accruals or the recorded accruals may be in excess of the final settlement amounts agreed to by tax
authorities.

Note 21—Retirement Plans

Defined Contribution Plans

We sponsor a defined contribution plan, the Leidos, Inc. Retirement Plan, which is both a 401(k) plan and an
employee stock ownership plan in which most employees are eligible to participate. This plan allows eligible
participants to contribute a portion of their income through payroll deductions and Leidos may also make
discretionary contributions. Company contributions were $120 million, $105 million and $94 million for fiscal 2020,
2019 and 2018, respectively.

Deferred Compensation Plans

We maintain three deferred compensation plans, the Keystaff Deferral Plan ("KDP"), the KESDP and the MSCP (the
"Plans"), for the benefit of certain management or highly compensated employees or members of the Board of
Directors. The Plans allow eligible participants to elect to defer a portion of their salary, and all or a portion of certain
bonuses, including restricted stock unit awards. Directors may also elect to defer their cash compensation in
addition to their restricted stock unit awards. Deferred balances in the Plans are paid in lump sum or installments
upon retirement, termination or the elected specified date.

We do not make any contributions to the KDP but maintain participant accounts for deferred amounts and
investments. We maintain a rabbi trust for the purpose of funding benefit payments to the KDP participants.
Participants may allocate deferred salary and cash bonus amounts into a variety of designated investment options,
with gains and losses based on the elected investment option performance with the participant assuming all risks
related to future returns of their contributions.

Under the KESDP, eligible participants may elect to defer in share units all or a portion of certain cash bonuses and
restricted stock unit awards granted under the previous 2006 Equity Incentive Plan and the current 2017 Omnibus
Incentive Plan (see "Note 19—Stock-Based Compensation"). Under the MSCP, restricted stock share units are fully
vested and no further deferrals into the plan are made. We do not make any contributions to the accounts of KESDP
or MSCP participants. Benefits from the KESDP and MSCP are payable in shares of Leidos common stock held in a
rabbi trust for the purpose of funding benefit payments to KESDP and MSCP participants.

Defined Benefit Plans

We sponsor a defined benefit pension plan in the United Kingdom for former employees on an expired customer
contract. While benefits under the plan are frozen, we have continuing defined benefit pension obligations with
respect to certain plan participants. In fiscal 2012, we sold certain components of our business, including the
component that contained this pension and employed the pension plan participants. Pursuant to the definitive sale
agreement, we retained the assets and obligations of this defined benefit pension plan. As a result of retaining the
pension obligation, the remaining immaterial components of ongoing pension expense, primarily interest costs and
assumed return on plan assets subsequent to the sale, are recorded in continuing operations.

The projected benefit obligation as of January 1, 2021, and January 3, 2020, was $138 million and $121 million,
respectively. The increase in the projected benefit obligation was primarily due to a loss resulting from changes in
assumptions used in the valuation and adverse exchange rate movements in the British pound when compared to
the U.S. dollar.

The fair value of plan assets as of January 1, 2021, and January 3, 2020, was $157 million and $139 million,
respectively. The plan funding status was overfunded $19 million and $18 million as of January 1, 2021, and
January 3, 2020, respectively, and included within "Other assets" on the consolidated balance sheets.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 106

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Other

We also sponsor multiemployer defined benefit pension plans and a defined contribution plan (a 401(k) plan) (the
"Sponsored Plans") for employees working on two U.S. government contracts. As part of the contractual
agreements, the customers reimburse Leidos for contributions made to these Sponsored Plans as these costs are
allowable under government contract cost accounting requirements. If we were to cease being the contractor as a
result of a recompetition process, the defined benefit pension plans and related plan assets and liabilities would
transfer to the new contractor. If the contract expires or is terminated with no transfer of the pension plan to a
successor contractor, any amount by which the plan liabilities exceed plan assets, as of that date, will be
reimbursed by the U.S. government customer. Since we are not responsible for the current or future funded status
of the pension plans, no assets or liabilities arising from their funded status are recorded in the consolidated
financial statements and no amounts associated with these pension plans are included in the defined benefit plan

Sale of Accounts Receivable

We have entered into purchase agreements with a financial institution which provide us the election to sell accounts
receivable at a discount. The receivables sold are typically collectable from our customers within 30 days of the sale
date. During fiscal 2020, we sold $1,866 million of accounts receivable under the agreements and received
proceeds of $1,864 million, which were classified as operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash
flows.

These transfers have been recognized as a sale, as the receivables have been legally isolated from Leidos, the
financial institution has the right to pledge or exchange the assets received and we do not maintain effective control
over the transferred accounts receivable. Our only continuing involvement with the transferred financial assets is as
the collection and servicing agent. As a result, the accounts receivable balance on the consolidated balance sheets
is presented net of the transferred amounts. No servicing asset or liability was recognized for continued servicing of
the sold receivables, as the servicing fee approximates fair value. The difference between the carrying amount of
the receivables sold and the net cash received was recognized as a loss on sale and was recorded within "Selling,
general and administrative expenses" on the consolidated statements of income. As of January 1, 2021, all sold
receivables had been remitted to the financial institution.

The restricted cash is recorded within "Other current assets" in the consolidated balance sheets.

The restricted cash is primarily comprised of advances from customers that are restricted as to use for certain
expenditures related to that customer's contract.

Note 23—Business Segments

Our operations and reportable segments are organized around the customers and markets we serve. We define our
reportable segments based on the way the chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), currently the Chairman and
Chief Executive Officer, manages the operations for purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance.

Our business is aligned into three reportable segments (Defense Solutions, Civil and Health). Additionally, we
separately present the unallocable costs associated with corporate functions as Corporate. Effective the beginning
of fiscal 2020, certain contracts were reassigned from the Civil reportable segment to the Defense Solutions
reportable segment to better align operations within the reportable segments to the customers they serve. Prior year
segment results have been recast to reflect this change.

Defense Solutions provides leading-edge and technologically advanced services, solutions and products to a broad
customer base. Our ever-changing technologies and innovations cover a wide spectrum of markets with primary
areas of concentration in digital modernization and integrated systems, Command, Control, Communications,
Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance technologies and services, transformative software,
analytics, intelligence analysis, mission support and logistics services, weapons systems and human space
exploration. We are dedicated to delivering cost-effective solutions backed by innovation-generating research and
development to meet the evolving missions of our customers. We provide a diverse portfolio of national security
solutions and systems for air, land, sea, space and cyberspace for the U.S. Intelligence Community, the DoD, the
National Aeronautics and Space Administration, military services, government agencies of U.S. allies abroad and
other federal and commercial customers in the national security industry. Our solutions deliver innovative
technology, large-scale systems, command and control platforms, data analytics, logistics and cybersecurity
solutions, as well as intelligence analysis and operations support to critical missions around the world.

Corporate includes the operations of various corporate activities, certain corporate expense items that are not
reimbursed by our U.S. government customers and certain other expense items excluded from a reportable
segment's performance.

The income statement performance measures used to evaluate segment performance are revenues and operating
income. As a result, "Interest expense, net," "Other (expense) income, net," and "Income tax expense," as reported
in the consolidated financial statements are not allocated to our segments. Under U.S. government CAS, indirect
costs including depreciation expense are collected in indirect cost pools, which are then collectively allocated out to
the reportable segments based on a representative causal or beneficial relationship of the costs in the pool to the
costs in the base. While depreciation expense is a component of the allocated costs, the allocation process
precludes depreciation expense from being specifically identified by the individual reportable segments. For this
reason, depreciation expense by reportable segment has not been reported above.

Asset information by segment is not a key measure of performance used by the CODM.

We generated approximately 87% of our total revenues in fiscal 2020 and 2019 and 85% of our total revenues in
fiscal 2018 from contracts with the U.S. government, either as a prime contractor or a subcontractor to other
contractors engaged in work for the U.S. government. Revenues under contracts with the DoD and U.S. Intelligence
Community, including subcontracts under which the DoD or the U.S. Intelligence Community is the ultimate
purchaser, represented approximately 49% of our total revenues for fiscal 2020 and 48% for fiscal 2019 and 2018.

Less than 10% of the our revenues and tangible long-lived assets are generated by or owned by entities outside of
the United States. As such, additional financial information by geographic location is not presented.

Legal Proceedings

MSA Joint Venture

On November 10, 2015, MSA received a final decision by the Department of Energy ("DoE") contracting officer for
the Mission Support Contract concluding that certain payments to MSA by the DoE for the performance of IT
services by Lockheed Martin Services, Inc. (“LMSI”) under a subcontract to MSA constituted alleged affiliate fees in
violation of the FAR. Lockheed Martin Integrated Technology LLC (now known as Leidos Integrated Technology
LLC) is a member entity of MSA. Subsequent to the contracting officer's final decision, MSA, LMSI and Lockheed
Martin Corporation received notice from the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of Washington that the
U.S. government had initiated a False Claims Act investigation into the facts surrounding this dispute. On February
8, 2019, the Department of Justice filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of
Washington against MSA, Lockheed Martin Corporation, Lockheed Martin Services, Inc. and a Lockheed Martin
employee ("Defendants"). The complaint alleges violations of the False Claims Act, the Anti-Kickback Act and
breach of contract with the DoE, among other things. On January 13, 2020, the Defendants' motions to dismiss
were granted in part and denied in part. Litigation will proceed for the False Claims Act and other common law
claims, although the Anti-Kickback Act claim has been dismissed with prejudice. The U.S. Attorney's office had
previously advised that a parallel criminal investigation was open, although no subjects or targets of the
investigation had been identified. The U.S. Attorney's office has informed MSA that it has closed the criminal
investigation.

Since this issue first was raised by the DoE, MSA has asserted that the IT services performed by LMSI under a
fixed-price/fixed-unit rate subcontract approved by the DoE meet the definition of a "commercial item" under the
FAR and any profits earned on that subcontract are permissible. MSA filed an appeal of the contracting officer's
decision with the Civilian Board of Contract Appeals ("CBCA"), which was stayed pending resolution of the False
Claims Act matter. Subsequent to the filing of MSA's appeal, the contracting officer demanded that MSA reimburse
the DoE in the amount of $64 million, which was his estimate of the profits earned during the period from 2010 to
2014 by LMSI. The DoE has deferred collection of $32 million of that demand, pending resolution of the appeal and
without prejudice to MSA's position that it is not liable for any of the DOE's $64 million reimbursement claim. On
December 10, 2019, MSA received a second final decision by the DoE contracting officer, estimating approximately
$29 million in alleged unallowable profit and associated general and administrative costs during the period from
2015 to 2016 by LMSI. MSA filed an appeal of the second contracting officer's decision, which has been
consolidated with the prior proceeding before the CBCA and stayed pending resolution of the False Claims Act
matter. The DoE and MSA also executed an agreement to defer the entire amount of the disallowed costs from the
second contracting officer's final decision until the CBCA proceedings are finally resolved. Leidos has agreed to
indemnify Jacobs Group, LLC and Centerra Group, LLC for any liability MSA incurs in this matter. Under the terms
of the Separation Agreement, Lockheed Martin agreed to indemnify Leidos for 100% of any damages in excess of
$38 million up to $64 million, and 50% of any damages in excess of $64 million, with respect to claims asserted
against MSA related to this matter.

At January 1, 2021, we had a liability of $42 million recorded in the consolidated balance sheets for this matter. The
amount of possible loss ultimately incurred, if any, is subject to a range of complex factors and potential outcomes
that remain to be determined, including information gathered during the course of litigation, pretrial and trial rulings
and other litigation-related developments.

Other

We are also involved in various claims and lawsuits arising in the normal conduct of our business, none of which, in
the opinion of management, based upon current information, will likely have a material adverse effect on our
financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Other Contingencies

VirnetX, Inc. ("VirnetX")

On September 29, 2017, the federal trial court in the Eastern District of Texas entered a final judgment in the
VirnetX v. Apple case referred to as the Apple I case. The court found that Apple willfully infringed the VirnetX
patents at issue in the Apple I case and awarded enhanced damages, bringing the total award against Apple to over
$343 million in pre-interest damages. The court subsequently awarded an additional sum of over $96 million for
costs, attorneys' fees and interest, bringing the total award to VirnetX in the Apple I case to over $439 million. Apple
appealed the judgment in the Apple I case with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit and on January 15,
2019, the court affirmed the $439 million judgment. On August 1, 2019, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal
Circuit denied Apple's petition for panel and en banc rehearing, but Apple subsequently filed motions to stay and
vacate the judgment, and for leave to file a second petition for rehearing. These motions were denied by the court
on October 1, 2019. On December 27, 2019, Apple filed a petition in the Apple I matter for a writ of certiorari with the
United States Supreme Court, which was denied on February 24, 2020. On February 20, 2020, Apple filed a Motion
for Relief from Judgment in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, further arguing that VirnetX
should not be allowed to recover the large amount of damages awarded in this case. On March 13, 2020, VirnetX
announced that it had received payment from Apple of over $454 million, which represents the judgment with
interest for the Apple I matter. On May 22, 2020, Leidos received $85 million from VirnetX representing Leidos'
current share of the proceeds resulting from the Apple I case. A net gain of $81 million was recognized during fiscal
2020 and was presented in "Bad debt expense and recoveries" on the consolidated statements of income. On July
23, 2020, Leidos paid a 4% royalty on the proceeds received to the customer who paid for the development of the
original technology. Apple's Motion for Relief from Judgment was denied by the District Court on September 1,
2020. Apple did not appeal the denial of this Motion; therefore, the Apple I case is now concluded.

On April 10, 2018, a jury trial concluded in an additional patent infringement case brought by VirnetX against Apple,
referred to as the Apple II case, in which the jury returned a verdict against Apple for infringement and awarded
VirnetX damages in the amount of over $502 million. On April 11, 2018, in a second phase of the Apple II trial, the
jury found Apple's infringement to be willful. On August 30, 2018, the federal trial court in the Eastern District of
Texas entered a final judgment and rulings on post-trial motions in the Apple II case. The court affirmed the jury’s
verdict of over $502 million and granted VirnetX’s motions for supplemental damages, a sunset royalty and royalty
rate of $1.20 per infringing device, along with pre-judgment and post-judgment interest and costs. The court denied
VirnetX’s motions for enhanced damages, attorneys’ fees and an injunction. The court also denied Apple’s motions
for judgment as a matter of law and for a new trial. An additional sum of over $93 million for costs and pre-judgment
interest was subsequently agreed upon pursuant to a court order, bringing the total award to VirnetX in the Apple II
case to over $595 million. Apple filed an appeal of the judgment in the Apple II case with the U.S. Court of Appeals
for the Federal Circuit, and on November 22, 2019, the Federal Circuit affirmed in part, reversed in part and
remanded the Apple II case back to the District Court. The Federal Circuit affirmed that Apple infringed two of the
patents at issue in the case, and ruled that Apple is precluded from making certain patent invalidity arguments.
However, the Federal Circuit reversed the judgment that Apple infringed two other patents at issue, vacated the
prior damages award in the Apple II case, and remanded the Apple II case back to the District Court for further
proceedings regarding damages. On April 23, 2020, the District Court ordered a new trial on damages in the Apple II
case, which was delayed by COVID-19 and started on October 26, 2020. On October 30, 2020, the jury awarded
VirnetX $503 million in damages and specified a royalty rate of $0.84 per infringing device. Apple is expected to
appeal this decision. In January 2021, the District Court entered final judgment affirming the jury award and the
parties separately agreed on additional costs and interest of over $75 million, subject to Apple's expected appeal.

Under its agreements with VirnetX, Leidos would receive 25% of the proceeds obtained by VirnetX after reduction
for attorneys' fees and costs. However, the verdict in the Apple II case remains subject to the ongoing and potential
future proceedings and appeals. In addition, the patents at issue in these cases are subject to U.S. Patent and
Trademark Office post-grant inter partes review and/or reexamination proceedings and related appeals, which may
result in all or part of these patents being invalidated or the claims of the patents being limited. Thus, no assurances
can be given when or if we will receive any proceeds in connection with the jury award in the Apple II case. In
addition, if Leidos receives any proceeds, we are required to pay a royalty to the customer who paid for the
development of the technology.

Government Investigations and Reviews

We are routinely subject to investigations and reviews relating to compliance with various laws and regulations with
respect to our role as a contractor to federal, state and local government customers and in connection with
performing services in countries outside of the United States. Adverse findings could have a material effect on our
business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows due to our reliance on government contracts.

As of January 1, 2021, indirect cost audits by the DCAA remain open for fiscal 2015 and subsequent fiscal years.
Although we have recorded contract revenues based upon an estimate of costs that we believe will be approved
upon final audit or review, we cannot predict the outcome of any ongoing or future audits or reviews and
adjustments and, if future adjustments exceed estimates, our profitability may be adversely affected. As of
January 1, 2021, we believe we have adequately reserved for potential adjustments from audits or reviews of
contract costs.

In February 2019, we executed an external restructuring advance agreement with the DoD in accordance with
provisions of the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement, which allows us to recover certain specified
external restructuring costs.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer (our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer)
and principal financial officer (our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer), has evaluated the
effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of January 1, 2021. Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer
and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure
that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and
forms of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). These disclosure controls and procedures include,
without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the
reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to our
management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow
timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the first and second quarter of fiscal 2020, we completed our acquisition of Dynetics, Inc. ("Dynetics") and
L3Harris Technologies' security detection and automation businesses (the "SD&A Businesses"), respectively. As
part of the ongoing integration of Dynetics and the SD&A Businesses, we are in the process of incorporating the
controls and related procedures of these businesses. Other than incorporating controls for Dynetics and the SD&A
Businesses, there have been no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred in the
fourth quarter of the period ended January 1, 2021, covered by this Annual Report that materially affected, or are
reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting.
Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As permitted by the SEC rules, management's assessment and conclusion on the effectiveness of our internal
control over financial reporting as of January 1, 2021 excludes an assessment of the internal control over financial
reporting of Dynetics and the SD&A Businesses, acquired on January 31, 2020 and May 4, 2020, respectively.

Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has
evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of January 1, 2021, based on criteria
established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Our management has assessed the effectiveness of our internal
control over financial reporting as of January 1, 2021, and has concluded that our internal control over financial
reporting as of that date was effective.

Deloitte & Touche LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, audited our consolidated financial
statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and our internal control over financial reporting, and that
firm’s report on our internal control over financial reporting is set forth below.

Leidos Holdings, Inc. Annual Report - 113

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the shareholders and the Board of Directors of Leidos Holdings, Inc.

Reston, Virginia

Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Leidos Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company")
as of January 1, 2021, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company
maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of January 1, 2021, based on
criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
(United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2021,
of the Company and our report dated February 23, 2021, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial
statements.

As described in Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, management excluded from its
assessment the internal control over financial reporting at Dynetics, Inc. (“Dynetics”) and the Security Detection and
Automation Business (“SD&A”) which were acquired on January 31, 2020 and May 4, 2020, respectively, whose
financial statements reflect total assets of 13% and 10%, respectively, and revenues constituting 8% and 2%,
respectively, of the consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2021.
Accordingly, our audit did not include the internal control over financial reporting at Dynetics and SD&A.

Basis for Opinion

The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its
assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying
Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the
Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with
the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal
securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was
maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial
reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating
effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered
necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding
the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those
policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly
reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that
transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in
accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance
regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that
could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect
misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that
controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies
or procedures may deteriorate.
