SAIC FISCAL YEAR 2017 ANNUAL REPORT

SAIC FISCAL YEAR 2017 ANNUAL REPORT 

Dear Fellow 
Stockholders,

We are proud of our accomplishments in fiscal year 2017. 
Although we missed our revenue target for the year, 
 SAIC delivered market-leading shareholder returns  
of 98 percent, maintained our high win rate versus 
competitors, and ended the year with the strongest sales 
momentum in our history.

Powered by our differentiated matrix operating model,  
a talented workforce, and strong program performance across 
the portfolio, we further distinguished SAIC as an innovative, 
reliable and cost-effective technology integrator, both to our 
customers in the U.S. military services and increasingly  
to other federal agencies. We spent much of the year refining 
our long-term strategy to build on the successes of our first 
three years as an independent company.

Strong Financial Results, 
Market-Leading  
Shareholder Returns

Revenue of $4.5 billion for the year – 3 percent total growth, and 
1.9 percent internal revenue contraction from the previous year – 
fell short of our goal to grow in the low single digits. Headwinds 
included U.S. government budget challenges, contract award 
delays, slower than usual government acquisition cycles, and lower 
volume for materials in our supply chain portfolio primarily resulting 
from a Defense Logistics Agency contract loss and lower operating 
tempo by the Department of Defense.

Despite the revenue challenges, sales momentum increased based 
on strategic new wins, as evidenced by a record book-to-bill ratio of 
1.2. Investments in sales team training and talent have paid off, as 
our overall contract award wins improved substantially and were the 
highest since launching as a new company in 2013. Similarly, we 
have improved our overall win rate by more than 30 percent since 
our 2013 start. With strong contract bookings of $5.3 billion and  
a robust win rate, there is a firm foundation for the years ahead.

We met our goal to increase profits by 10 to 20 basis points. 
Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and 
amortization (EBITDA) rose to $330 million, up 20 basis points  
from the previous year, lifting our adjusted EBITDA margin  
to 7.4 percent versus 7.2 percent in FY16. 

Free cash flow was $258 million, exceeding our FY17 target of  
$215 million. We adhered to our disciplined capital deployment 
plan, with consistent dividend payments and share repurchases. 
All told, we have returned more than $500 million to shareholders 
since our incorporation in 2013.

We met our debt reduction goal, all but eliminating our debt 
covenant restrictions related to our 2015 acquisition of Scitor Corp. 
We also refinanced our debt, reducing our annual interest payments 
and exposure to possible interest rate volatility. 

We increased our strategic investment in research and 
development, particularly in cyber, data analytics, platform 
integration, and training and simulation systems, to align our 
portfolio with our customers’ future priorities.

More Than a Services Company:  
A Premier Technology Integrator

In FY17, we refined our long-term vision in an updated strategy, 
“Ingenuity 2025.” This important planning effort brought a rigor 
and focus to prioritizing our investments so we can continue 
to outperform our peers and attain our strategic, financial and 
cultural aspirations, including our vision to be the premier 
technology integrator in our market. The plan calls for us to focus 
on four large, attractive market segments where we already are  
a leader in scale and capabilities. These market segments are:

FOUR MARKET SEGMENTS 
DESCRIBE WHAT WE DO AND  
THE MARKETS WE SERVE.

Engineering, Integration, and 
Mission Services  
This market has been our bread 
and butter since the legacy 
company was founded 48 years 
ago. With Ingenuity 2025, we will 
focus on growing sub-segments 
such as training and simulation 
systems, where we can best deploy 
our skilled workforce to achieve 
our long-term financial targets. 
This will allow SAIC to expand on 
a foundation of success in these 
services, such as the Department 
of Defense military readiness 
programs and the ongoing work 
on training systems for air traffic 
controllers for the Federal Aviation 
Administration. We also recently 
secured a spot on the Human 
Capital and Training Solutions 
(HCaTS) contract with the Office  
of Personnel Management,  
opening new doors across 
government agencies.

Information Technology  
We won re-competes of large 
contracts with the U.S. Navy and 
landed new ones with the U.S. Air 
Force and U.S. Cyber Command. 

We are particularly focused on 
delivering end-to-end IT services, 
where SAIC helps customers 
design, deploy and maintain their IT 
capabilities, whether on their own 
equipment or through commercially 
available cloud services. Winning a 
position on the $460 million Cyber 
Command contract adds to our end-
to-end IT portfolio, which includes 
support to the U.S. Department of 
Agriculture, Department of State, 
NASA, and U.S. Central Command. 

Platform Integration 
For more than a decade, SAIC has 
been developing an alternative 
approach to original equipment 
manufacturers that doesn’t require 
owning traditional production 
facilities or maintaining ownership 
of intellectual property. In FY17, 
we delivered 10 upgraded Assault 
Amphibious Vehicles (AAVs) to the 
U.S. Marine Corps and began work 
on the new Amphibious Combat 
Vehicle (ACV), delivering the first of 
16 prototypes in March 2017. Each 
of these long-term tactical vehicle 
programs have potential value of 
more than $1 billion.

Although we must still win the 
ongoing production contract on 
ACV, our work on these contracts 
has given us the knowledge, tools 
and processes to pursue other 
modernization opportunities. 
Last year, we won a $383 million 
contract with the U.S. Navy to 
design and build the tail cone and 
propulsion system for the MK 48 
torpedo – the primary undersea 
weapon of the U.S. fleet and a 
restart of this program after  
20 years.

Logistics, Readiness, and 
Sustainment 
We remain committed to providing 
essential supplies and mission 
support services that our men 
and women in the armed services 
require. In 2017, we delivered our 
one millionth tire on behalf of the 
Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) 
and won the 10-year ChemPOL 
re-compete contract to supply up 
to $1.4 billion in chemicals and 
petroleum products to DLA. 

Commitment to Our People:  
The Backbone of Our Success

For the past three years, we have been increasing our 
investment in our employees’ future and well-being.  
In FY17, we improved our benefits package to be market-
leading among our peers by expanding health-care and 
benefits packages to address needs identified by our 
employees. We also increased educational and training 
opportunities, and started an inclusion and diversity 
program that reinforces that SAIC values differences  
in perspective and life experiences. 

We are continuing our long-term strategy to recruit 
from technical degree programs at top universities 
and colleges to offer robust training to employees. 
We placed almost 650 of our talented professionals 
into a newly established internal Cyber Institute, and 
recently announced the establishment of The Technology 
Integration Gateway™ in Tennessee that will create  
300 jobs during the next five years. We’ll be working 
closely with Tennessee Technological University to 
support the development of a 21st century workforce  
as part of this initiative.

Although recruiting and retaining top talent remained 
a challenge throughout the aerospace and defense, 
and IT industries, our voluntary turnover was lower than 
most of our peers. However, we are continuing to focus 
on reducing voluntary turnover, particularly for the early 
career workforce who are key to our future. One promising 
sign: We exceeded our college and intern hiring goal by 
more than 20 percent, adding more than 390 talented 
college students and recent graduates to our workforce.

COLLEGE RECRUITING

For those employees whose projects or contracts 
are coming to a close, we substantially increased 
redeployment efforts, offering new positions to affected 
personnel. This enhanced career growth opportunities, 
increased job security and satisfaction, and improved 
efficiency in delivery of services to our customers. 

We continue to offer discounted stock purchases to our 
employees, and in FY17, employee participation in the 
program grew by more than 40 percent.

WASHINGTON TECHNOLOGY — JUNE 2016

Focused Ingenuity 
Driving Our Strategy

We are proud of what SAIC has accomplished 
this past year. Our employees’ dedication to 
serving our customers and their commitment 
to excellence allow SAIC to be a market 
leader today and in the future. 

In June 2017, a valued member of our  
team, SAIC Director Thomas Frist III, will  
be stepping down after serving for four years 
on the board, and an additional four years 
on our former parent’s board before our spin 
in 2013. Tommy has been instrumental in 
helping to shape the SAIC of today,  
and we greatly appreciate his insights  
and contributions.

We have an opportunity to build on  
the successes of our first three years 
and to clearly differentiate SAIC from its 
competitors. We are well positioned in the 
marketplace and have defined a strategy 
that maximizes the full capabilities of our 
innovative solutions and business models. 
We know we must continue to evolve if 
we are to maintain and grow our trusted 
relationships with customers and deliver  
on our long-term objectives. 

With Ingenuity 2025 as our guide, we believe 
we can go on to scale even greater heights. 
This is an exciting time in our company, and 
in our industry, and we have the momentum 
to break out of the pack and continue to 
redefine who SAIC is – today and tomorrow.

FY18 Priorities  
Are Ambitious  
and Attainable

As we implement Ingenuity 2025, 
our priorities in fiscal 2018 remain 
consistent with previous years yet  
are more focused to drive  
business results: 

•  Grow internal revenue at a low single-digit 
rate and improve EBITDA margins 10 to 20 
basis points, on average and over time. 
We will continue our focus on innovation 
and differentiation to achieve these 
performance goals. 

•  Maintain our capital deployment plan, 
maximizing shareholder value through 
dividend payments, share repurchases, 
and careful consideration of strategic 
acquisitions as the market evolves. We 
remain committed to delivering stand-out 
cash generation and return of capital to  
our shareholders.

•  Continue to build on the momentum 

from notable awards in our enterprise 
IT and platform integration businesses 
by expanding our innovative engineering 
solutions and business models. By 
sustaining our strong performance across 
the portfolio, we can further increase our 
win rates with existing customers, and  
fuel growth in new agencies across the 
federal government. 

• 

Increase investments in R&D projects 
aligned with our customers’ priorities  
as outlined in Ingenuity 2025,  
to include cyber, data analytics,  
training and simulation systems, and  
cloud infrastructure.

•  Continue to focus on employee 

engagement initiatives to establish SAIC 
as the best place to build a career in our 
industry. This will include improving our 
redeployment rates, investing in training, 
decreasing voluntary turnover, increasing 
employee referrals, and expanding 
inclusion and diversity programs.

comparable GAAP financial measure, see Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in this report.

(3) Adjusted diluted earnings per share is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes acquisition and integration costs that we do not consider to be indicative of our ongoing operating performance 
as they relate to the Company’s significant acquisition of Scitor. Adjusted diluted earnings per share is calculated by excluding the impact of acquisition and integration costs from diluted earnings
per share. In order to calculate the impact on diluted earnings per share, we use the effective income tax rates for each period excluding the negative effect of certain non-deductible acquisition 
and integration costs included in net income. We believe that this performance measure provides management and investors with useful information in assessing trends in our ongoing operating 
performance and may provide greater visibility in understanding the long-term financial performance of the Company.

Part I

Item 1. Business

The Company

Science Applications International Corporation (herein referred to as “SAIC,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a 
leading provider of technical, engineering and enterprise information technology (IT) services primarily to the U.S. 
government. We provide engineering, systems integration and information technology offerings for large, complex 
government projects and offer a broad range of services with a targeted emphasis on higher-end, differentiated 
technology services. Our end-to-end enterprise IT offerings span the entire spectrum of our customers’ IT infrastructure. 
We commenced operations on September 27, 2013 (the Distribution Date) following completion of a spin-off transaction 
from our former parent, Leidos Holdings, Inc. (collectively with its consolidated subsidiaries, “former Parent”). 

Our business has a long and successful history, tracing its roots to the earliest days of former Parent which was founded 
in 1969 as a scientific research and engineering firm. The U.S. federal government agencies we serve include all 
branches of the U.S. military (Army, Air Force, Navy, Marines and Coast Guard), U.S. Defense Logistics Agency, National 
Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), U.S. Department of State, and U.S. Department of Homeland Security 
(DHS). In May 2015 we completed the acquisition of privately held Scitor Holdings, Inc. (Scitor), a leading provider of 
services to the intelligence community, which enabled us to gain sufficient scale to competitively pursue opportunities 
within the intelligence community. Our long-standing customer relationships have enabled us to achieve an in-depth 
understanding of our customers’ missions and provide differentiated service offerings to meet our customers’ most 
complex requirements. Our offerings include: engineering; technology and equipment platform integration; maintenance of 
ground and maritime systems; logistics; training and simulation; operation and program support services; and end-to-end 
services spanning the design, development, integration, deployment, management and operations, sustainment and 
security of our customers’ entire IT infrastructure. We serve our customers through approximately 1,400 active contracts 
and task orders. We have approximately 15,500 employees that are led by an experienced executive team of proven 
industry leaders.

Our core strengths have supported our successful performance on programs of national importance. Those strengths 
include:

Enduring Customer Relationships and Mission-Orientation. We have strong and long-lasting customer relationships 
throughout the U.S. government. Our track record of serving the missions of our government customer spans 
decades, including several enduring customer relationships that have lasted 20 years or more. Our employees, many 
of whom are deployed at customer sites, work closely with our customers in fulfilling their missions. Our strong 
customer relationships enable us to develop deep customer knowledge and translate our mission understanding into 
successful program execution that fosters continued demand for our services.

Full Life Cycle Offerings. We integrate technologies and deliver services that provide our customers with seamless 
end-to-end solutions. Our expertise includes initial requirements definition, development and integration services, 
training, logistics and sustainment. These full life cycle offerings, combined with deep customer knowledge, allow us 
to more effectively support our customers’ missions.

Significant Scale and Diversified Contract Base. With approximately $4.5 billion in revenue in fiscal 2017, we are one 
of the largest pure-play technical service providers to the U.S. government. Our significant scale advantage enables 
us to serve as a prime systems integrator on large, complex programs and to allocate resources toward further 
developing and expanding our repeatable, proven solutions and differentiated technical capabilities. Our diversified 
revenue base consists of programs ranging from research and development to operations and maintenance.

Technical Experts Led by Experienced Management. The quality, training and knowledge of our employees are 
important competitive assets. Our skilled workforce ranges from entry-level technicians to expert-level professionals in 
network engineering, software design and development, logistics, technology integration and systems engineering. 
Additionally, the majority of our workforce holds an active security clearance, which is required on many of our 
existing programs and future program opportunities.

SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

Our workforce is led by a talented and experienced senior leadership team with a long history of solving our 
customers’ most difficult challenges. Collectively, our executive team averages more than 25 years of industry 
experience, consisting of members who have served as senior leaders in public companies and are recognized as

Key Customers

In each of fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, over 95% of our total revenues were attributable to prime contracts with the U.S. 
government or to subcontracts with other contractors engaged in work for the U.S. government. Substantially all of our 
revenues were earned by entities located in the United States.

We generated more than 10% of our total revenues during each of the last three fiscal years from each of the U.S. Army 
and U.S. Navy. The percentages of total revenues for the U.S. government, its agencies and other customers, including 
those comprising more than 10% of total revenues for each of the three years ended February 3, 2017 were

Regulation

Our business is heavily regulated and we must comply with and are affected by laws and regulations, including Federal 
Acquisition Regulations (FAR) and Cost Accounting Standards (CAS), relating to the award, administration and 
performance of U.S. government and other contracts. These regulations set forth policies, procedures and requirements 
for the acquisition of goods and services by the U.S. government and impose a broad range of requirements, many of 
which are unique to government contracting and include procurement, import and export, security, contract termination 
and adjustment, and audit requirements. In addition, these regulations govern contract pricing and reimbursable costs by, 
among other things, requiring certification and disclosure of cost or pricing data in connection with certain contract 
negotiations, defining allowable and unallowable costs, and otherwise governing the right to reimbursement under various 
flexibly priced contracts. These laws and regulations impose specific cost accounting practices that may increase 
accounting and internal control costs associated with compliance with government standards.  The U.S. government may 
revise its procurement practices or adopt new contract rules and regulations at any time.  Our compliance with these 
regulations is monitored by the Defense Contract Management Agency and the Defense Contract Audit Agency.

The U.S. government has the ability to cancel contracts 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 contract profit for work performed when the U.S. government issues a termination for convenience.

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

Internationally, we are subject to foreign government laws and regulations, and U.S. government laws, regulations, and 
procurement policies and practices (including laws and regulations relating to bribery of foreign government officials, 
import and export control, investments, exchange controls and repatriation of earnings). We are also susceptible to 
varying political and economic risks.

In order to help ensure compliance with these complex laws and regulations, we have established policies and 
procedures that address our approach to meeting these requirements and also administer a robust ethics and compliance 
training program to maintain a compliance-oriented workforce.

These regulations and risks affecting our business are described in more detail under “Risk Factors” in this report.

Contracts

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. Budgetary pressures and reforms in the procurement process have increasingly 
caused many U.S. government agencies to purchase services and solutions using contracting processes that give them 
the ability to select multiple winners or pre-qualify certain contractors to provide various services or solutions 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 solutions include the following:

Single Award Contracts. U.S. government agencies may procure services and solutions through single award 
contracts which specify the scope of work that will be delivered and identify the contractor that will provide the 
specified services. When an agency has a requirement, interested contractors are solicited, qualified and then 
provided with a request for proposal. The process of qualifying prospective bidders, soliciting proposals and 
evaluating contractor bids requires the agency to maintain a large, professional procurement staff and the bidding and 
selection process can take a year or more to complete. This method of contracting may provide the contractor with 
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 work from the single successful awardee.

Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Contracts. The U.S. government uses IDIQ contracts to obtain 
commitments from contractors to provide certain services or solutions on pre-established terms and conditions. The 
U.S. government then issues task orders under the IDIQ contracts to purchase the specific services or solutions 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-selected contractor. Under a 

-3-

SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

multi-award IDIQ contract, task orders can be awarded to any of the pre-selected contractors, which can result in 
further limited competition for the award of task orders. Multi-award IDIQ contracts that are open for any government 
agency to use for the procurement of services are commonly referred to as “government-wide acquisition contracts.” 
IDIQ contracts often have multi-year terms and unfunded ceiling amounts that enable, but not commit, the U.S. 
government to purchase substantial amounts of services or solutions from one or more contractors. At the time an 
IDIQ contract is awarded (prior to the letting of any task orders), a contractor may have limited or no visibility as to the 
ultimate amount of services or solutions that the U.S. government will purchase under the contract, and, in the case of 
a multi-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 solutions with pre-negotiated 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 to meet its requirements, the agency (or the GSA on behalf of the 
agency) conducts the procurement and bidders are 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 solutions that customers will ultimately purchase under the contract.

Contract Types

Generally, the type of contract used for the acquisition of our services and solutions 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 provide for reimbursement of our direct contract costs and allocable indirect costs, 

plus a fee (contract profit). This type of contract is 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 usually subject us to lower risk and generally require us to use our best efforts to 
accomplish the scope of the work within a specified time and amount of costs.

• 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 
of 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 their 
period of performance.

• Firm-fixed price (FFP) contracts provide for a predetermined price for specific solutions. 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 reduced profits or losses from increased or 
unexpected costs.

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 solutions provided, as well as the achievement of performance 
objectives and the stage of performance at which the right to receive fees is finally determined. Given the relative amount 
of risk assumed by the contractor, cost-reimbursement and T&M contracts generally have lower profitability than FFP 
contracts. For the proportionate amount of revenues derived from each type of contract for the last three fiscal years, see 
“Other Key Performance Measures—Contract Types” in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition 
and Results of Operations” in Part II of this report.

Backlog

Backlog represents the estimated amount of future revenues to be recognized under negotiated contracts as work is 
performed. Our backlog consists of funded backlog and negotiated unfunded backlog. At February 3, 2017 and January 
29, 2016 our total backlog was $8.0 billion and $7.2 billion, respectively. For a complete description of our backlog, see 
“Other Key Performance Measures—Bookings and Backlog” in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial 
Condition and Results of Operations” in Part II of this report.

Competition

Competition for contracts is intense and we often compete against a large number of established multinational companies 
which may have greater name recognition, financial resources and larger technical staffs than we do. We also compete 
against smaller, more specialized companies that concentrate their resources on particular areas, as well as the U.S. 
government’s own capabilities. As a result of the diverse requirements of the U.S. government, we frequently collaborate 
with other companies to compete for large contracts and bid against these same companies in other situations. Our 
principal competitors include the following:

•

•

the engineering and technical services divisions of large defense contractors that provide IT services in addition to 
other hardware systems and products, which include companies such as General Dynamics Corporation, Northrop 
Grumman Corporation, L-3 Communications Corporation and Raytheon Company;

contractors focused principally on technical and IT services, such as Booz Allen Hamilton Inc., Engility Holdings, Inc., 
CACI International, Inc., Leidos Holdings, Inc., ManTech International Corporation, Serco Group plc, Vencore and 
CSRA Inc.;

• diversified commercial providers that also provide U.S. government IT services, such as Accenture plc, HP Enterprise 

Services, International Business Machines Corporation and Unisys Corporation; and

•

contractors providing supply chain management and other logistics services, such as Agility Logistics Corporation.

We compete on various factors, which include: our technical expertise and qualified and/or security-cleared personnel; our 
ability to deliver innovative cost-effective solutions in a timely manner; successful program execution on previous 
programs; our reputation and standing with customers; pricing; and the size and geographic presence of our company.

Competition within the government services industry has intensified which has led to fewer sole-source awards and an 
increased emphasis on cost competitiveness and affordability. In addition, procurement initiatives to improve efficiency, 
refocus priorities and enhance best practices could result in fewer new opportunities for our industry as a whole, which 
would intensify competition within the industry as companies compete for a more limited set of new programs.

Patents and Proprietary Information

Our technical services and solutions are not generally dependent on patent protection, although we do selectively seek 
patent protection. We claim a proprietary interest in certain of our solutions, software programs, methodologies and know-
how. This proprietary information is protected by copyrights, trade secrets, licenses, contracts and other means. We 
selectively pursue opportunities to license or transfer our technologies to third parties.

In connection with the performance of services, 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 may also have certain rights to the programs and 
solutions that we develop under the subcontract.

Seasonality

The U.S. government’s fiscal year ends on September 30. It is not uncommon for U.S. government agencies to award 
extra tasks or complete other contract actions 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, as a result of a greater 
number of holidays occurring in our fourth fiscal quarter, as compared to our third fiscal quarter, we may experience 
sequentially higher revenues in our third fiscal quarter and lower revenues in our fourth fiscal quarter. For selected 
quarterly financial data, see Note 15 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements contained within this report.

Environmental Matters

Our operations are subject to various foreign, federal, state and local environmental protection and health and safety laws 
and regulations. Although we do not currently anticipate that compliance costs 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. These regulations and risks are described in more detail under “Risk Factors” in this report.

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 included elsewhere within this report and other documents we file with the SEC. These 
risks, as well as 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. 

Risks Relating to Our Business

We depend on U.S. government agencies as our primary customer and, if our reputation or relationships with 
these agencies were harmed, our future revenues and cash flows would be adversely affected.

We generated either as a prime contractor or a subcontractor to other contractors engaged in work for the U.S. 
government over 95% of our total revenues during each of the last three fiscal years from contracts with the U.S. 
government. We expect to continue to derive substantially all 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, are key factors in maintaining and growing these revenues. Negative press reports or publicity, regardless of 
accuracy, could harm our reputation. If our reputation is negatively affected, or if we are suspended or debarred from 
contracting with government agencies for any reason, the amount of business with government and other customers 
would decrease and our future revenues, cash flows, and financial results would be adversely affected.

A decline in the U.S. government defense budget, changes in spending or budgetary priorities, the failure to 
approve U.S. government budgets on a timely basis or delays in contract awards and other procurement activity 
may significantly and adversely affect our future revenues, cash flow and financial results.

Because we generate substantially all of our revenues from contracts with U.S. government agencies, our operating 
results could be adversely affected by spending caps or changes in budgetary priorities, as well as by delays in the 
government budget process, program starts or the award of contracts or task orders under contracts. Current U.S. 
government spending levels for defense-related and other programs may not be sustained. 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 shifts in spending priorities from defense-related and other programs as a result of competing demands for 
federal funds and the number and intensity of military conflicts or other factors.

When the U.S. Congress does not complete a budget before the end of the fiscal year, government operations typically 
are funded through one or more continuing resolutions that authorize agencies of the U.S. government to continue to 
operate, but do not authorize new spending initiatives. When the U.S. government operates under a continuing resolution, 
contract awards may be delayed, canceled, or funded at lower levels which could adversely impact our operations, cash 
flows and financial results. Continuing resolutions have become commonplace in recent years.  Failure to complete a 
budget or to provide for a continuing resolution by applicable deadlines, may result in a federal government shutdown, 
which could cause us to incur labor or other costs without reimbursement under customer contracts or the delay or 
cancellation of key programs, and could adversely impact our operations, cash flows and financial results.

The Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015 (the Budget Act) raised the statutory limit on the amount of permissible federal debt 
(the debt ceiling) until March 2017 and raised the sequestration caps imposed by the Budget Control Act of 2011 (the 
Budget Control Act). However, unless Congress and the Administration can reach a new agreement by the end of GFY 
2017, the full effect of sequestration will once again take effect in GFY 2018 which will significantly reduce defense 
spending. Congress and the Administration will also need to once again raise the federal debt ceiling. If no agreement is 
reached before the “extraordinary measures” currently allowing the Secretary of Treasury to manage government 
payments expire, the government will exceed the debt ceiling, which could result in the delay of the U.S. government's 
timely payment of our billings, resulting in delayed cash collection, and have significant consequences for our company, 
our employees, our suppliers and the defense industry.

-7-

SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

The U.S. government also conducts periodic reviews of U.S. defense strategies and priorities which may shift DoD 
budgetary priorities, reduce overall spending or delay contract or task order awards for defense-related programs from 
which we would otherwise expect to derive a significant portion of our future revenues. A significant decline in overall U.S. 
government spending, a significant shift in spending priorities, the substantial reduction or elimination of particular 
defense-related programs or significant budget-related delays in contract or task order awards for large programs could 
adversely affect our future revenues and limit our growth prospects.

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 and may impose added costs on our business. Some 
significant statutes and regulations that affect us include:

•

•

•

•

•

the FAR and agency 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 or pricing data in connection with 
certain contract awards;

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

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

the U.S. government Cost Accounting Standards (CAS), which impose requirements that govern our right to 
reimbursement under certain cost-based U.S. government contracts.

Many of our U.S. government contracts contain organizational conflict of interest (OCI) clauses that may limit our ability to 
compete for or perform certain other contracts or other types of services for particular customers. OCI arises 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. Existing OCI, and any OCI that 
may develop, could preclude our competition for or performance on a significant project or contract, which could limit our 
opportunities.

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 continues 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 OCI’s, deterrence of fraud, and environmental 
responsibility or sustainability could have an adverse effect on us. Moreover, 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 contract renewals. 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.

SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

Our business is subject to reviews, audits and cost adjustments by the U.S. government, which, if resolved 
unfavorably to us, could adversely affect our profitability, cash flows or growth prospects.

The Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA), Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) and others routinely audit 
and review a contractor’s performance on government contracts, indirect cost rates and pricing practices, and compliance 
with applicable contracting and procurement laws, regulations and standards. They also review the adequacy of the 
contractor’s compliance with government standards for its business systems, which are defined as the contractor’s 
accounting, earned value management, estimating, materials management, property management and purchasing 
systems. A finding of significant control deficiencies in a contractor’s business systems or a finding of noncompliance with 
CAS can result in decremented billing rates to U.S. government customers until the control deficiencies are corrected and 
their remediation is accepted by the DCMA. The agencies conducting these audits and reviews have come under 
increased scrutiny. As a result, audits and reviews have become more rigorous and the standards to which we are held 
are being more strictly interpreted which has increased the likelihood of an audit or review resulting in an adverse 
outcome.

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. Receipt of adverse audit findings or the failure to obtain 
an “approved” determination on our various business systems could significantly and adversely affect our business by, 
among other things, restricting our ability to bid on new contracts and, for those proposals under evaluation, diminishing 
our competitive position. A determination of noncompliance could also result in the U.S. government imposing penalties 
and sanctions against us, including withholding of payments, suspension of payments and increased government scrutiny. 
Increased scrutiny could adversely impact our ability to perform on contracts, affect our ability to invoice for work 
performed, delay the receipt of timely payment on contracts, and weaken our ability to compete for new contracts with the 
U.S. government.

The indirect cost audits by the DCAA of our business remain open for fiscal 2011 and subsequent years. We have 
recorded contract revenues subsequent to and including fiscal 2011 based on an estimate of costs that we believe will be 
approved on final audit. However, we do not know the outcome of any ongoing or future audits or whether future 
adjustments will exceed our reserves for potential adjustments. 

We have recorded reserves for estimated net amounts to be refunded to customers for potential adjustments for indirect 
cost audits and compliance with CAS for indemnification obligations owing to former Parent for periods prior to the spin-off 
date. Any additional amounts which may be determined to be owed for periods prior to the separation will be allocated to 
former Parent and us in proportions determined in accordance with the Distribution Agreement. Additional amounts that 
are allocated to us could have a material, adverse impact to our profitability and cash flows. For a more detailed 
discussion of the terms of the Distribution Agreement governing financial impacts of audits and reviews for periods prior to 
the spin-off, see Note 14 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements contained within this report.

Our business is subject to governmental review and investigation which could adversely affect our profitability, 
cash position and growth prospects.

We are routinely subject to governmental investigations relating to our contracts and operations. If a review or 
investigation identifies improper or illegal activities, we may be subject to civil or criminal penalties or administrative 
sanctions which could include the termination of contracts, forfeiture of profits, the triggering of price reduction clauses, 
suspension of payments, fines, and suspension or debarment from doing business with governmental agencies. 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 profitability, cash position and 
future prospects could be adversely affected.

SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

The U.S. government may terminate, cancel, modify or curtail our contracts at any time and, if we do not replace 
them, we may be unable to achieve or sustain revenue growth and may suffer a decline in revenues and 
profitability.

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

We have experienced and continue to experience periodic performance issues under certain of our 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 solutions 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 aggressive competition that can impact our ability to obtain contracts and may affect our future 
revenues, profitability and growth prospects.

We expect that a majority of the business that we seek in the foreseeable future will be awarded through a competitive 
bidding process as the U.S. government increasingly relies on IDIQ, 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, or that may be awarded but for which we do not receive meaningful task orders. 
For contracts awarded to us, we also face 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 startup 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. Our failure to compete effectively in this procurement environment would adversely 
affect our revenues and profitability.

We compete with larger companies that have greater name recognition, financial resources and larger technical staffs and 
with smaller, more specialized companies that are able to concentrate their resources on particular areas. Additionally, we 
may compete with the U.S. government’s own capabilities. To remain competitive, we must consistently provide superior 
service, technology and performance on a cost-effective basis to our customers and there is no assurance that we will do 
so.

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

Our business relies heavily upon the expertise and services of our employees. Our continued success depends on our 
ability to recruit and retain highly trained and skilled engineering, technical and professional personnel. Competition for 
skilled personnel is intense and competitors 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 in the current and future fiscal years. 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 efficiently perform our 
contractual obligations, timely meet our customers’ needs and ultimately win new business, all of which could adversely 
affect our future results. In addition, salaries and related costs are a significant portion of the cost of providing our services 
and, accordingly, our ability to efficiently utilize our workforce impacts our profitability. If our employees are under-utilized, 
our profitability could suffer.

We believe that our success also depends on the continued employment of a highly qualified and experienced senior 
management team and that team’s ability to retain existing business and generate new business. The loss of key 
personnel in critical functions could lead to lack of business continuity or disruptions in our business until we are able to 
hire and train replacement personnel. 

In the prior fiscal year, we completed a significant acquisition and may make other acquisitions, investments, 
joint ventures and divestitures in the future that involve numerous risks, which if realized, may adversely affect 
our business and our future results.

In May 2015, we acquired Scitor Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries (Scitor) for a total purchase price of $764 million, net of 
cash acquired. In connection with the acquisition, we amended our Credit Facility to incur approximately $670 million of 
additional debt and converted the Credit Facility from an unsecured facility to a facility secured by a lien on substantially 
all of our assets. Under the terms of the Credit Facility, we are required to maintain a certain ratio of debt to earnings 
before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (referred to as the Leverage Ratio). Further, under the terms of the 
Credit Facility, may be limited in our ability to pay dividends beyond our current regular dividend and repurchase shares of 
our stock above a certain Leverage Ratio may be required to make certain mandatory prepayments based on the cash 
flow of our business, and are subject to other operational limitations.

Our Credit Facility also imposes limitations on our ability to make other acquisitions. Subject to those limitations, we may 
selectively pursue additional strategic acquisitions, investments and joint ventures. The Scitor acquisition and other 
acquisitions, investments and joint ventures pose many risks that could adversely affect our reputation, operations or 
financial results, including:

• we may not retain key employees (including those with needed security clearances), customers and business 

partners of Scitor or those of an acquired business in the future;

• we may fail to successfully integrate Scitor or other future acquired businesses, such as failing to successfully 

implement IT and other control systems relating to the operations of Scitor or any other future acquired business;

• we may not generate sufficient earnings to meet the required Leverage Ratio under the Credit Facility, which 

would give lenders the right to, among other things, foreclose on our assets;

•

acquisitions normally require a significant investment of time and resources, which may disrupt our business and 
distract our management from other important responsibilities;

• we may not be able to accurately estimate the financial effect of the Scitor acquisition or any future acquisitions 
and investments on our business and we may not realize anticipated revenue opportunities, cost savings, or 
other synergies or benefits, or acquisitions may not result in improved operating performance; and

• we may assume known as well as unknown material liabilities, legal or regulatory risks 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;

If the Scitor acquisition or any other 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 would be adversely affected.

In addition, we may 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 and 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 could adversely affect our financial results.

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, T&M 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 solutions provided, as well as the achievement of performance objectives 
and the stage of performance at which the right to receive fees, particularly under incentive and award fee contracts, is 
finally determined. Cost-reimbursement and T&M contracts generally have lower profitability than FFP contracts.
To varying degrees, each of our contract types involves some risk that we could underestimate the costs and resources 
necessary to fulfill the contract. Our profitability is adversely affected when we incur costs on cost-reimbursement and 
T&M contracts that we cannot bill to our customers. While FFP contracts allow us to benefit from cost savings, these 
contracts also increase our exposure to the risk of cost overruns. Revenues derived from FFP contracts represented 
approximately 29% of our total revenues for fiscal 2017. When making proposals on FFP contracts, we rely heavily on our 
estimates of costs and timing for completing 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 the performance of work 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 
connection with 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.

A significant portion of our contract revenues are recognized using the percentage-of-completion method. This method 
requires estimates of total costs at completion, fees earned on the contract, or both. Particularly due to the technical 
nature of the services being performed and the length of certain contracts, this estimation process 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 immediately. Changes in the underlying 
assumptions, circumstances or estimates could result in adjustments that may adversely affect future financial results.

Our business and financial results could be negatively affected by cyber or other security threats.

As a U.S. government contractor and a provider of IT services operating in multiple regulated industries and geographies, 
we handle a variety of sensitive information including personally identifiable information, protected health information, 
personnel information, classified information, and financial information, concerning our business and employees and 
those of our customers. We are continuously exposed to cyber and other security threats, including computer viruses, 
attacks by hackers, malware, insider threats and physical break-ins. Any unauthorized electronic or physical intrusion or 
other security threat may jeopardize the protection of sensitive or other information stored or transmitted through our IT 
systems and networks. This could lead to disruptions in mission-critical systems, unauthorized release of sensitive 
information and the theft or corruption of data. Although we have implemented and regularly update and improve policies, 
procedures and other controls to monitor, protect against, detect and mitigate cyber and other security threats, attempts to 
gain unauthorized access to our IT systems and networks are becoming more sophisticated.  We, however, seek to detect 
and investigate all security events and prevent their occurrence. 

-12-

SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

In addition, we work with industry and the U.S. government to share threat intelligence and promote increased awareness 
and enhanced protections against cybersecurity threats. However, because of the evolving nature of these security 
threats, there can be no assurance that our policies, procedures and other controls will detect or prevent them, and we 
cannot predict their full impact. We may experience similar security threats to the IT systems that we develop, install or 
maintain under customer contracts, including customer contracts under which we may have access to or management 
responsibility for customer databases or networks that contain sensitive information relating to our customers, their 
employees or related third parties. Although we work cooperatively with our customers to seek to minimize the impacts of 
cyber and other security threats, we must usually rely on the safeguards used or required by those customers. In the 
event of unauthorized access to sensitive information for which are responsible under customer contracts, our customers, 
their employees, or third parties may seek to hold us liable for any costs or other damages associated with the 
unauthorized access. In addition, government agencies may bring legal actions against us for violation of or 
noncompliance with regulatory requirements relating to any unauthorized access to sensitive information. Any remediation 
costs, damages or other liabilities related to unauthorized access of sensitive information of ours or our customers caused 
by cyber or other security threats may not be fully insured or indemnified by other means. Occurrence of any unauthorized 
access caused by these security threats could adversely affect our reputation, business operations and financial results.

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.

Legal disputes 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 under “Legal Proceedings” in Part I of this report. We are 
also subject to, and may become a party to, a variety of other litigation or claims and suits that arise from time to time in 
the ordinary course of our business. The Department of Justice and other enforcement agencies of the U.S. government 
may bring claims or lawsuits against us in connection with our performance of government contracts or our billing or 
record-keeping relating to those contracts. The Department of Justice has considerably more resources at its disposal 
than we do, and can bring suspension and debarment proceedings against us that would prevent us from working for 
some or all U.S. government customers. In addition, certain statutes under which the Department of Justice may bring 
claims (like the False Claims Act) provide for treble damages and penalties on a per invoice basis against government 
contractors. These circumstances generally give the Department of Justice significantly more leverage in any legal 
dispute with us than if we were defending ourselves against claims brought by a commercial enterprise. Adverse 
judgments or settlements in some or all of these legal disputes may result in significant monetary damages 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. Litigation and other claims, including those described under “Legal Proceedings” in Part I of this report, are subject 
to inherent uncertainties and management’s view of these matters may change in the future.

SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

Our business is subject to numerous legal and regulatory requirements and any violation of these requirements 
or any misconduct by our employees, subcontractors, agents or business partners could harm our business and 
reputation.

In addition to government contract procurement laws and regulations, we are subject to numerous other federal, state and 
foreign legal requirements on matters as diverse as data privacy and protection, employment and labor relations, 
immigration, taxation, anti-corruption, 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. Violations of one or more of these 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.

Misconduct by our employees, subcontractors, agents or business partners could subject us to fines and penalties, 
restitution or other damages, loss of security clearance, loss of current and future customer contracts and suspension or 
debarment from contracting with federal, state or local government agencies, any of which would adversely affect our 
business and our future results. Such misconduct could include fraud or other improper activities such as falsifying time or 
other records, failure to comply with our policies and procedures or violations of applicable laws and regulations.

Goodwill and intangible assets represent a significant amount of our total assets and any impairment of these 
assets would negatively impact our results of operations.

As a result of the Scitor acquisition, our goodwill and intangible assets increased significantly. Goodwill and intangible 
assets are tested for impairment annually or 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 
goodwill 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 contracts, customer relationships, or 
personnel that affect current and future operating cash flows of the reporting unit. 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 teaming relationships with other prime contractors and subcontractors in order to submit bids for large 
procurements or other opportunities where we believe the combination of services, products and solutions provided by us 
and our teammates 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 or experience with our customers may 
perform services as our subcontractor that we cannot otherwise provide ourselves, 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 win these contracts.

-14-

SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

Whenever our subcontractors fail to timely meet their contractual obligations, have regulatory compliance or other 
problems, our ability to fulfill our obligations as a prime contractor or higher tier subcontractor may be jeopardized. In 
addition, we have certain obligations to our former Parent to permit it to perform up to one hundred percent (100%) of task 
orders as a subcontractor to us under certain contracts that were novated to us in the spin-off transaction. Subcontractor 
performance deficiencies under subcontracts with us as the prime contractor, including performance by our former Parent, 
could lead to significant losses in future periods and could result in our termination for default as the prime contractor even 
though it was the subcontractor that failed to perform and not our personnel. 

We have only a limited ability to protect our intellectual property rights, which are important to our success. Our 
failure to adequately protect 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. Although our employees are 
subject to confidentiality obligations, this protection may be inadequate to deter or prevent misappropriation of our 
confidential information. We may be unable to detect unauthorized use of our intellectual property or otherwise take 
appropriate steps to enforce our rights. Failure to obtain or maintain trade secret protection could adversely affect our 
competitive business position. If we are unable to prevent third parties from infringing or misappropriating our copyrights, 
trademarks or other proprietary information, our competitive position could be adversely affected. In addition, in 
connection with the performance of services, 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 may permit the U.S. 
government to disclose or license this information to third parties, including, in some instances, our competitors.

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. Our contracts generally indemnify our customers for third-party claims for 
intellectual property infringement by the services and solutions we provide. The expense of defending these claims may 
adversely affect our financial results.

We could incur significant liabilities and suffer negative publicity if our detection systems fail to operate as 
intended or our assessment reports prove to be inaccurate.

We have developed and sold tsunami buoys and related services that are designed to assist in the detection of tsunamis 
or large waves that may have catastrophic consequences to coastal communities. Our buoys have been deployed by the 
U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and non-U.S. governments in other areas around the world. There 
are many factors, some of which are beyond our control, which could result in the failure of these buoys. We may develop 
other products or provide services for the detection of natural or manmade threats that could have catastrophic 
consequences if the threats are realized. In addition, we prepare reports for various government customers in the 
evaluation or assessment of the consequences of certain threats or natural disasters. The failure of our products and 
services to help detect the threats for which they were designed or the failure of our reports to accurately assess the 
consequences of certain threats could contribute to injury, death and extensive property damage and may lead to product 
liability, professional liability, or other claims against us. Further, if our products, services or reports fail to, or are 
perceived to have failed to help detect or adequately assess a threat, the negative publicity from such incident could have 
a material adverse effect on our business.

SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

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

Some of our services and operations involve the use, handling or disposal of hazardous substances or dangerous 
materials, including explosive, chemical, biological, radiological or nuclear materials. These activities 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 or dangerous materials. 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 or 
could cause us to incur costs to change, upgrade, remediate and/or close some of our operations or properties. Although 
we do not have extensive real estate holdings, our 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 face risks associated with our international business.

Our international business operations may be 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 
and could expose us to administrative, civil or criminal penalties and may expose us to potentially significant contract 
losses. In addition, we provide services and solutions in support of U.S. government customers in countries with 
governments that may be or may become unstable or are in areas of active military or intelligence operations. Operating 
in such environments may increase the risk of an incident resulting in injury or loss of life, or damage or destruction of 
property, or inability to meet our contractual obligations. Although our international operations have historically generated 
a small proportion of our revenues, we do not know the impact that these regulatory, geopolitical and other factors may 
have on our business in the future and any of these factors could adversely affect our business.

Risks Relating to our Stock

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 that are subject to security restrictions 
(classified programs), which preclude the dissemination of information that is classified for national security purposes. 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 programs than our other programs 
and therefore less ability to fully evaluate the risks related to our classified business.

disclosures about market risk should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related 
notes. It contains forward-looking statements (which may be identified by words such as those described in “Risk 
Factors—Forward-Looking Statement Risks” in Part I of this report), including statements regarding our intent, belief, or 
current expectations with respect to, among other things: trends affecting our financial condition or results of operations 
(including our financial targets discussed below under “Management of Operating Performance and Reporting” and 
“Liquidity and Capital Resources”); backlog; our industry; government budgets and spending; market opportunities; the 
impact of competition; and the impact of the Scitor acquisition. Such statements are not guarantees of future performance 
and involve risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements 
as a result of various factors. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed below 
and elsewhere in this report, particularly in “Risk Factors” in Part I of this report. Due to such uncertainties and risks, you 
are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. 
We do not undertake any obligation to update these factors or to publicly announce the results of any changes to our 
forward-looking statements due to future results or developments.

We use the terms “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” to refer to Science Applications International Corporation and its 
consolidated subsidiaries. References herein to “former Parent” refer to Leidos Holdings, Inc. (formerly SAIC, Inc.) 
collectively with its consolidated subsidiaries.

The Company utilizes a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Friday closest to January 31, with fiscal quarters typically 
consisting of 13 weeks. Fiscal 2015 began on February 1, 2014 and ended on January 30, 2015, fiscal 2016 began on

Economic Opportunities, Challenges and Risks

In fiscal 2017, we generated greater than 95% of our total revenues from contracts with the U.S. government, including 
subcontracts on which we perform. Our business performance is affected by the overall level of U.S. government 
spending and the alignment of our offerings and capabilities with the budget priorities of the U.S. government. While we 
believe that national security will continue to be a priority, the U.S. government budget deficit and the national debt have 
created pressure to examine and reduce spending across all federal agencies. Baseline spending for the Department of 
Defense (DoD) through U.S. government fiscal year 2023 has been reduced and there may be further changes that 
negatively impact discretionary spending trends across all government agencies. Adverse changes in fiscal and economic 
conditions could materially impact our business. Some changes that could have an adverse impact on our business are 
the manner in which spending reductions are implemented (including sequestration), future government shutdowns, and 
issues related to required increases to the nation’s debt ceiling.

The U.S. government has increasingly relied on contracts that are subject to a competitive bidding process (including 
indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (IDIQ), U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) schedules and other multi-award 
contracts) which has resulted in greater competition 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. 

Despite the budget and competitive pressures impacting the industry, we believe we are well positioned to protect and 
expand existing customer relationships and benefit from opportunities that we have not previously pursued. Our scale, 
size and prime contractor leadership position are expected to help differentiate us from our competitors, especially on 
large contracts. Our long-term, trusted customer relationships and deep technical expertise provide us with the 
sophistication to handle highly complex mission-critical contracts. SAIC’s value proposition is found in the proven ability to 
serve as a trusted adviser to our customers. In doing so, we leverage our expertise and scale to help them execute their 
mission. 

We succeed as a business based on the solutions we deliver, our past performance and our ability to compete on price. 
Our solutions, inspired through innovation, are based on best practices and technology transfer. Our past performance 
was achieved by employee dedication and customer focus. Our current cost structure, as well as our ongoing efforts to 
reduce costs by strategic sourcing and developing repeatable offerings, is expected to allow us to compete effectively on 
price in an evolving environment. Our ability to be competitive in the future will continue to be driven by our reputation of 
successful program execution, competitive cost structure and efficiencies in assigning the right people, at the right time, in 
support of our contracts. 

See “Risk Factors” in Part I of this report for additional discussion of our industry and regulatory environment.

Management of Operating Performance and Reporting

We manage our business to achieve our long-term financial targets, which we expect to accomplish on average and over 
time. These financial targets include: 

•

low single digit annual internal revenue growth percentage,

• margin expansion of 10 to 20 basis points annually, and

•

return of capital in excess of operating needs.

Internal revenue growth (or internal revenue contraction if negative) is the method by which we evaluate the growth 
generated by SAIC after acquisitions. We calculate internal revenue growth percentage by comparing our reported 
revenue for the current year to the reported revenue for the prior year comparable period adjusted to include any pre-
acquisition historical revenue of acquired businesses. Internal revenue growth percentage is a non-GAAP financial 
measure described in more detail in “Non-GAAP Measures” below.

-23-

SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

Our business and program management process is directed by professional managers focused on satisfying our 
customers by providing high quality services in achieving contract requirements. These managers carefully monitor 
contract margin performance by constantly evaluating contract risks and opportunities. Through each contract’s life cycle, 
program managers review performance and update contract performance estimates to reflect their understanding of the 
best information available. For contracts accounted for under the percentage-of-completion method in which incurred 
costs or efforts expended are used as a measure of progress to project completion, updates to estimates are recognized 
on inception-to-date activity, during the period of adjustment, resulting in either a favorable or unfavorable impact to 
operating income.

We evaluate our results of operations by considering the drivers causing changes in revenues, operating income and 
operating cash flows. Given that revenues fluctuate on our contract portfolio over time due to contract awards and 
completions, changes in customer requirements, and increases or decreases in ordering volume of materials, we evaluate 
significant trends and fluctuations in these terms. Whether performed by our employees or by our subcontractors, we 
primarily provide services and, as a result, our cost of revenues are predominantly variable. We also analyze our cost mix 
(labor, subcontractor or materials) in order to understand operating margin because contracts performed with a higher 
proportion of SAIC labor are generally more profitable. Changes in costs of revenues as a percentage of revenue other 
than from revenue volume or cost mix are normally driven by fluctuations in shared or corporate costs, or cumulative 
revenue adjustments due to changes in contract estimates.

Changes in operating cash flows are described with regard to changes in cash generated through the delivery of services, 
significant drivers of fluctuations in assets or liabilities and the impacts of changes in timing of cash receipts or 
disbursements.

Revenues. Revenues increased $135 million from fiscal 2016 to 2017 primarily due to revenues earned on contracts 
obtained through the acquisition of Scitor (which occurred in the second quarter of the prior year period), revenues on 
newly awarded programs including the Amphibious Combat Vehicle and GSA Enterprise Operations programs ($138 
million) as well as revenues due to one additional week in the current year period ($88 million). These increases were 
partially offset by lower activity on our supply chain and logistics services programs as the result of the loss of two 
contracts in the prior year ($75 million), the expected decline on the Assault Amphibious Vehicle program as we near 
completion of the prototyping phase ($25 million), and various other decreases across our contract portfolio due to 
programs that have ended or have experienced lower activity.  Revenues from work performed jointly with our former 
parent company also continued to decrease, as expected, as we complete pre-separation joint work ($22 million).

SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

Revenues increased $430 million from fiscal 2015 to 2016 primarily due to the acquisition of Scitor which contributed 
revenues of $428 million during fiscal 2016. The remainder of the increase is due primarily to revenue on newly awarded 
programs ($96 million), offset by decreased activity on our supply chain and logistics services and other programs ($60 
million) and a DoD contract that ended in fiscal 2016 ($19 million).

Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues increased $99 million from fiscal 2016 to fiscal 2017 primarily due to an increase in 
revenue volume ($121 million). Cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues decreased from 90.5% in fiscal 2016 to 
90.0% in fiscal 2017, which was driven by cost savings initiatives ($10 million) and improved profitability across our 
contract portfolio ($9 million).

Cost of revenues increased $354 million from fiscal 2015 to fiscal 2016 primarily driven by the acquisition of Scitor which 
contributed costs of $363 million during fiscal 2016. Cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues decreased from 91.4% 
in fiscal 2015 to 90.5% in fiscal 2016, which was partially driven by improved profitability across our contract portfolio ($2 
million). 

Cost of revenues also decreased in fiscal 2016 and fiscal 2017 due to an annual update to our Disclosure Statements that 
we prepare in accordance with U.S. government Cost Accounting Standards. We classify indirect costs as a cost of 
revenues or selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) in the same manner as such costs are defined in our 
Disclosure Statements. The update resulted in certain types of costs that had previously been included in cost of 
revenues to be included in SG&A ($6 million and $10 million for fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016, respectively); however, total 
operating costs were not affected by this change.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. SG&A increased $8 million from fiscal 2016 to 2017 primarily due to higher 
bid and proposal (B&P) activity to address a strong pipeline of opportunities ($9 million), lease exit costs ($5 million), and 
the update to our Disclosure Statements. These increases were partially offset by lower amortization of intangible assets 
($8 million).

SG&A increased $63 million, from fiscal 2015 to 2016 primarily due to additional amortization of intangible assets from the 
Scitor acquisition ($32 million) and other administrative costs attributable to Scitor’s operations ($22 million). In addition, 
as described above, SG&A increased, with a corresponding decrease to cost of revenues, as a result of the update to our 
Disclosure Statements.

Operating Income. Operating income increased $44 million to 6.1% of revenues from fiscal 2016 to 2017 primarily due to 
a decrease in acquisition and integration costs ($16 million), higher net favorable changes in estimates on contracts 
accounted for using the percentage-of-completion method ($9 million), cost savings initiatives ($10 million), lower 
intangible asset amortization ($8 million) and increased revenue volume ($12 million).  These increases were partially 
offset by higher B&P activity ($9 million) and lease exit costs ($5 million).

Operating income decreased $13 million to 5.3% of revenues from fiscal 2015 to 2016 primarily due to acquisition and 
integration expenses related to the acquisition of Scitor ($26 million) which was partially offset by operating income 
generated by Scitor ($11 million after $32 million of amortization of intangible assets acquired) and a net favorable 
increase in the change in estimates on contracts accounted for under the percentage-of-completion method ($2 million).

Net Income. Net income increased $31 million from fiscal 2016 to 2017 primarily due to increased operating income ($28 
million, net of tax) and a lower effective tax rate ($7 million), partially offset by increased interest expense primarily due to 
one additional quarter of interest in the current year on additional borrowings.

Net income decreased $24 million from fiscal 2015 to 2016 primarily due to increased interest expense on incremental 
term loan borrowings related to the Scitor acquisition ($17 million, net of tax) and decreased operating income ($8 million, 
net of tax) partially offset by a decrease in the effective tax rate ($1 million).

Cash Flows Provided by Operating Activities. Cash flows provided by operating activities were $273 million for fiscal 2017 
which represented an increase from fiscal 2016 primarily due to a net reduction in working capital investments in Marine 
Corps platform integration and IT services programs ($34 million), strong customer receipts, and lower payments for 
acquisition and integration costs ($13 million) and income taxes ($7 million). Cash flows were also higher due to one 
additional quarter of operating activities of Scitor. These increases were partially offset by higher interest payments due to 
one additional quarter of interest incurred on additional borrowings ($13 million) and one extra payroll payment in the 
current year.

-25-

SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

Cash flows provided by operating activities were $226 million for fiscal 2016 which represented a decrease from fiscal 
2015 primarily due to the timing of income tax payments in the fiscal 2015 ($29 million), fiscal 2016 payments for 
acquisition and integration costs ($18 million), an increase in working capital investments in fiscal 2016 for Marine Corps 
platform integration services programs ($29 million), and higher interest payments in fiscal 2016 as a result of additional 
borrowings ($19 million). These decreases were partially offset by cash provided from the operating activities of Scitor 
during fiscal 2016.

Non-GAAP Measures

Internal revenue growth (contraction), earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), and 
adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. While we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures may be 
useful in evaluating our financial information, they should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute 
for financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations, definitions, and how we believe these 
measures are useful to management and investors are provided below.  Other companies may define similar measures 
differently. 

Internal Revenue Growth. Internal revenue growth (or internal revenue contraction if negative) is utilized to evaluate 
revenue growth after the completion of acquisitions. Internal revenue growth is calculated by comparing our reported 
revenues for the current year to the reported revenues for the prior year comparable period adjusted to include any pre-
acquisition historical revenues of acquired businesses.  We adjust current and prior year revenue to exclude the impact of 
revenue performed by our former parent company, Leidos Holdings, Inc. (“former Parent”) since revenues on pre-
separation joint work are recorded equal to cost and are expected to decline over time (see Note 1 of the notes to the 
consolidated financial statements for information regarding our separation from former Parent). For fiscal 2017, a 53-week 
fiscal year, we have also adjusted revenue to exclude the estimated impact of the additional week in order to facilitate 
comparison to fiscal 2016, a 52-week fiscal year. We estimate the revenue impact of the additional week by dividing the 
current year’s revenues for the first quarter by the number of days in the first quarter and multiplying that amount by the 
number of additional days in the first quarter. We believe that adjusting current year revenues to reflect the impact of the 
additional week improves comparability since differences in the number of days generally have a direct impact on the 
amount of revenues earned in our business during the respective periods.

We believe internal revenue growth provides management and investors with useful information in assessing trends on 
how successful the Company has been at growing revenues of our base business and the businesses that we acquire. 

Internal revenue growth for the current fiscal year was estimated as follows:

Prior year period's revenues, as reported
Prior year period's revenues performed by former Parent
Revenues of acquired business for the pre-acquisition prior year period

Prior year period's revenues, as adjusted

Current year revenues, as reported

Internal revenue contraction for fiscal 2017 was primarily due to lower volume on our supply chain logistics services 
contracts. Internal revenue contraction for fiscal 2016 was primarily due to lower revenues generated by Scitor due to 
delays in contract awards and transition of work to small business set aside contracts offset by net increases in revenue 
across other programs.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. The performance measure EBITDA is calculated by taking net income excluding interest 
expense, provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by taking EBITDA 
and excluding acquisition and integration costs. Adjusted EBITDA is a performance measure that excludes acquisition 
and integration costs that we do not consider to be indicative of our ongoing operating performance as they relate to the 
Company’s significant acquisition of Scitor.

We believe that EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA provide management and investors with useful information in assessing 
trends in our ongoing operating performance and may provide greater visibility in understanding the long-term financial 
performance of the Company.

EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA for the current and prior fiscal years were calculated as follows:

Fiscal 2017 adjusted EBITDA increased to 7.4% of revenues from 7.2% of revenues for the prior year primarily due to an 
increase in net favorable changes in estimates on contracts accounted for under the percentage-of-completion method 
and cost savings initiatives. Fiscal 2016 adjusted EBITDA increased to 7.2% of revenues from 6.7% of revenues for the 
prior year due to the acquisition of Scitor, which had a relatively higher EBITDA margin percentage than our historical 
business, and a net increase in profitability across our existing contract portfolio. 

Other Key Performance Measures

In addition to the financial measures described above, we believe that bookings and backlog are useful measures for 
management and investors to evaluate our potential future revenues. We also consider measures such as contract types 
and cost of revenues mix to be useful for management and investors to evaluate our operating income and performance.

Net Bookings and Backlog. Net bookings represent the estimated amount of revenue to be earned in the future from 
funded and negotiated unfunded contract awards that were received during the period, net of adjustments to estimates on 
previously awarded contracts. We calculate net bookings as the period’s ending backlog plus the period’s revenues less 
the prior period’s ending backlog and initial backlog obtained through acquisitions.

Backlog represents the estimated amount of future revenues to be recognized under negotiated contracts as work is 
performed. We do not include in backlog estimates of revenues to be derived from IDIQ contracts, but rather record 
backlog and bookings when task orders are awarded on these contracts. Given that much of our revenue is derived from 
IDIQ contract task orders that renew annually, bookings on these contracts tend to refresh annually as the task orders are 
renewed. Additionally, we do not include in backlog contract awards that are under protest until the protest is resolved in 
our favor.

We segregate our backlog into two categories as follows:

• Funded Backlog. Funded backlog for contracts with government agencies primarily represents estimated amounts of 

revenue to be earned in the future from contracts for which funding is appropriated less revenues previously 
recognized on these contracts. It does not include the unfunded portion of contracts in which funding is incrementally 
appropriated or authorized on a quarterly or annual basis by the U.S. government and other customers even though 
the contract may call for performance over a number of years. Funded backlog for contracts with non-government 
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 these contracts.

• Negotiated Unfunded Backlog. Negotiated unfunded backlog represents estimated amounts of revenue to be earned 
in the future from negotiated contracts for which funding has not been appropriated or otherwise authorized and from 
unexercised priced contract options. Negotiated unfunded backlog does not include any estimate of future potential 
task orders expected to be awarded under IDIQ, GSA Schedule or other master agreement contract vehicles.

We expect to recognize revenue from a substantial portion of our funded backlog within the next twelve months. However, 
the U.S. government can adjust the scope of services of or cancel contracts at any time. Similarly, certain contracts with 
commercial customers include provisions that allow the customer to cancel prior to contract completion. Most of our 
contracts have cancellation terms that would permit us to recover all or a portion of our incurred costs and fees (contract 
profit) for work performed.

The estimated value of our total backlog as of the dates presented was:

We had net bookings worth an estimated $5.3 billion and $4.3 billion during fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016, respectively. 
Fiscal 2017 total backlog has increased from the prior year primarily due to several large awards including the High 
Performance Computing Modernization Program (HPCMP) Integrated Technical Services (HITS) task order and the 
Enterprise Applications Service Technologies (EAST) 2 contract.

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 revenue, 
see “Business—Contract Types” in Part I of this report. The following table summarizes revenues by contract type as a

Cost of Revenues Mix. We generate revenues by providing a customized mix of services to our customers.  The profit 
generated from our service contracts is affected by the proportion of cost of revenues incurred from the efforts of our 
employees (which we refer to below as labor-related cost of revenues), the efforts of our subcontractors and the cost of 
materials used in the performance of our service obligations under our contracts. Contracts performed with a higher 
proportion of SAIC labor are generally more profitable.  The following table presents changes in cost mix for the periods 
presented:

Labor-related cost of revenues increased in fiscal 2017 over the prior year period primarily due to newly awarded 
contracts and the acquisition of Scitor (Scitor’s revenues are primarily generated through labor and subcontractors). 
Supply chain materials-related cost of revenues decreased in fiscal 2017 compared to the prior year period primarily as a 
result of a contract loss.

Labor and subcontractor-related cost of revenues increased and supply-chain and other materials-related cost of 
revenues decreased as a percentage of total cost of revenues in fiscal 2016 relative to fiscal 2015 primarily due to the 
Scitor acquisition because Scitor’s revenues were substantially generated through labor and subcontractors. Additionally, 
other materials-related cost of revenues decreased in fiscal 2016 as a result of changes in order volume.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As a services provider, our business generally requires minimal infrastructure investment. We expect to fund our ongoing 
working capital, commitments and any other discretionary investments with cash on hand, future operating cash flows 
and, if needed, borrowings under our $200 million Revolving Credit Facility.

We anticipate that our future cash needs will be for working capital, capital expenditures, and contractual and other 
commitments.  We consider various financial measures when we develop and update our cash deployment strategy, 
which include evaluating cash provided by operating activities, free cash flow and financial leverage.  When our cash 
generation enables us to exceed our target average minimum cash balance of $150 million, we intend to deploy excess 
cash through dividends, share repurchases, debt prepayments or strategic acquisitions. 

Our ability to fund these needs will depend, in part, on our ability to generate cash in the future, which depends on our 
future financial results. Our future results are subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative and regulatory 
factors that may be outside of our direct control. Although we believe that the financing arrangements in place will permit 
us to finance our operations on acceptable terms and conditions for at least the next year, our future access to, and the 
availability of financing on acceptable terms and conditions will be impacted by many factors (including our credit rating, 
capital market liquidity and overall economic conditions). Therefore, we cannot ensure that such financing will be available 
to us on acceptable terms or that such financing will be available at all. Nevertheless, we believe that our existing cash on 
hand, generation of future operating cash flows, and access to bank financing and capital markets will provide adequate 
resources to fund our short-term liquidity and long-term capital needs.

Borrowings under our Term Loan Facilities and, if used in the future, our Revolving Credit Facility incur interest at a 
variable rate. In accordance with our risk management objectives, we hold fixed interest rate swap agreements to hedge 
the variability in interest payment cash flows on a substantial portion of our outstanding variable rate debt. These 
instruments are used to hedge the variability in interest payment cash flows and are accounted for as cash flow hedges. 
Under the swap agreements, we pay the fixed rate and the counterparties to the agreement pay a floating interest rate.

Our Credit Facility contains customary terms and conditions including financial covenants and covenants restricting the 
Company's ability to merge or consolidate with another entity or undertake other fundamental changes, enter into property 
sale and leaseback transactions, and incur liens. The Company’s dividends and share repurchases may be limited under 
certain leverage ratios, and we may be required to make an annual debt prepayment based on our cash flows from 
operating activities.  See Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements in this annual report for a more complete 
understanding of our Credit Facility.

We currently maintain credit ratings from major U.S. rating agencies on our senior secured debt. There have been no 
changes to any of these ratings during fiscal year 2017.  Failure to maintain acceptable ratings could have an adverse 
effect on the Company’s future cost of capital and any significant increase in the level of our borrowings could negatively 
impact these ratings.

During fiscal 2017 we repurchased approximately 2.4 million shares of our common stock for $149 million from the open 
market in connection with our existing share repurchase program. During fiscal 2016 we repurchased approximately 1.1 
million shares for $50 million, bringing the total since the program’s inception in December of 2013 to 7.1 million shares or 
$349 million.

Cash Provided by Operating Activities. Refer to “Results of Operations” above for a discussion of the changes in cash 
provided by operating activities between fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016 and between fiscal 2016 and fiscal 2015.

Cash Used in Investing Activities. Cash used in investing activities decreased in fiscal 2017 compared to the prior year 
period, and increased in fiscal 2016 compared to fiscal 2015, primarily due to the acquisition of Scitor in fiscal 2016. 

Cash Used in/Provided by Financing Activities. Cash used in financing activities in fiscal 2017 was $247 million compared 
to cash provided by financing activities of $466 million during the prior year period. This change is primarily due to 
proceeds from borrowings obtained to fund the Scitor acquisition in the prior year and the additional plan share 
repurchases under our publicly announced repurchase program in the current year.

Cash provided by financing activities increased in fiscal 2016 primarily due to proceeds from borrowings obtained to fund 
the Scitor acquisition and lower share repurchase activity in fiscal 2016 under our publicly announced repurchase 
program. These changes were partially offset by fiscal 2016 payments of deferred financing costs, related to the additional 
borrowings, and term loan principal payments.

mandatory prepayments based on our level of cash flow generation and we also have the option to prepay loan principal amounts 
at any time.

(2) Amounts represent an estimate of future variable interest payments on the Term Loan Facilities based on scheduled outstanding 
principal amounts, current applicable margin and projected 1- and 3-month LIBOR as of February 3, 2017. In addition, the above 
table excludes the effects of interest rate swaps used to hedge against changes in 1- and 3-month LIBOR.
Includes estimated obligations to transfer funds under legally enforceable agreements for fixed or minimum amounts or quantities 
of goods or services at fixed or minimum prices. Excludes purchase orders for services or products to be delivered pursuant to 
U.S. government contracts in which we have full recourse under normal contract termination clauses.

(4) Other long-term liabilities primarily consist of liabilities associated with deferred compensation plan obligations, and liabilities for 
unrecognized tax benefits. Deferred compensation plan obligations have been allocated to fiscal years based on participants’ 
payment elections on retirement and estimated retirement ages, but is subject to acceleration on participants’ termination of 
employment prior to retirement. Liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits are allocated to the fiscal years in which the statute of 
limitations is currently expected to expire.

Commitments and Contingencies

We are subject to a number of reviews, investigations, claims, lawsuits and other uncertainties related to our business. 
For a discussion of these items, see Note 14 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements contained within this 
report.

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 U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of 
these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of 
assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingencies, as well as the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, gains 
and losses during the reporting periods. Management evaluates these estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. 
Our estimates and assumptions have been prepared on the basis of the most current reasonably available information 
and, in some cases, are our basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not 
readily apparent from other sources. Estimates and assumptions may change in the future as more current information is 
available. 

Management believes that our critical accounting policies are those that are both material to the presentation of our 
financial condition and results of operations and require management’s most difficult, subjective and complex judgments. 
Typically, the circumstances that make these judgments difficult, subjective and complex have to do with making 
estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. These policies are described below.

SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

Revenue Recognition. We generate our revenues primarily from long-term contracts in which we provide technical, 
engineering and enterprise IT services directly for the U.S. government and as a subcontractor with other contractors 
engaged in work for the U.S. government. We evaluate the nature of the contract and the services provided when 
determining the accounting method utilized for each contract. We recognize a significant portion of our revenues using the 
cost-to-cost percentage-of-completion method of accounting which requires us to rely on the skill and expertise of our 
engineers, program managers and business management professionals in the many areas of cost estimation. These 
estimates of costs can span several years and take into account many factors which include the availability, productivity 
and cost of labor, potential delays in our performance and the level of future indirect cost allocations.

We provide for anticipated losses on our contracts accounted for using the percentage-of-completion revenue recognition 
method by recording an expense in the amount of the total expected contract loss during the period when the loss is 
determined. Amounts billed and collected but not yet earned as revenues under certain types of contracts are deferred. 
Contract costs incurred for U.S. government contracts (including allocated indirect costs) are subject to audit and 
adjustment through negotiations with government representatives. Revenues on U.S. government contracts have been 
recorded in amounts that are expected to be realized on final settlement.

Changes in Estimates on Contracts. Changes in estimates of revenues, cost of revenues, or profits related to contracts 
accounted for using the percentage-of-completion method of accounting in which incurred costs or efforts expended are 
used to measure contract progress are recognized in the period in which such changes are made for the inception-to-date 
effect of the changes. Changes in these estimates can routinely occur during contract performance for a variety of 
reasons which include: changes in contract scope; changes in contract cost estimates due to unanticipated cost growth or 
retirements of risk for amounts different than estimated; changes in estimated incentive or award fees; and performance 
being better or worse than previously estimated. Aggregate changes in contract estimates increased operating income by 
$22 million for fiscal 2017, increased operating income by $13 million for fiscal 2016 and increased operating income by 
$11 million for fiscal 2015. For additional information related to changes in estimates on contracts, including gross 
favorable and unfavorable adjustments as well as the impact to earnings per share, see Note 1 of the notes to the 
consolidated financial statements contained within this report.

Business Combinations. We record all tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business 
combination at fair value as of the acquisition date, which is determined using a cost, market or income approach. The 
excess amount of the aggregated purchase consideration paid over the fair value of the net of assets acquired and 
liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill. Acquisition date fair value represents the price that would be received to sell 
an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as measured on the acquisition 
date. 

The valuations are based on information that existed as of the acquisition date. During the measurement period that shall 
not exceed one year from the acquisition date, we may adjust provisional amounts recorded for assets acquired and 
liabilities assumed to reflect new information that we have subsequently obtained regarding facts and circumstances that 
existed as of the acquisition date. 

Acquisition-related costs that are not part of the purchase price consideration are expensed as incurred. These costs 
typically include transaction-related costs, such as finder’s fees, and legal, accounting and other professional costs.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets. Goodwill is recorded as the difference between the aggregate consideration paid for an 
acquisition and the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill is not 
amortized, but rather tested for potential impairment annually at the beginning of the fourth quarter, or whenever events or 
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. 

The goodwill impairment test is performed at the reporting unit level. The Company estimates and compares the fair value 
of each reporting unit to its respective carrying value including goodwill. If the fair value is less than the carrying value, the 
amount of impairment expense is equal to the difference between the reporting unit’s fair value and the reporting unit’s 
carrying value.

Determining the fair value of each reporting unit involves judgment and the use of estimates and assumptions. We 
estimate the fair value of our reporting units using either a market approach, income approach, or a combination of both. 
For our annual impairment analysis, we reconcile the aggregate fair value of all of our reporting units our market 
capitalization as of the measurement date.

-32-

SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

Under the income approach, we estimate the fair value of a reporting unit using a multi-year discounted cash flow model 
that involves assumptions about projected future revenue growth, operating margins, income tax rates, capital 
expenditures, discount rate and terminal value. The discount rate is an estimate of the cost of capital that a market 
participant would expect for the respective reporting unit. The terminal value represents the present value in the last year 
of the projection period of all subsequent cash flows into perpetuity.

Under the market approach, we estimate the fair value of a reporting unit based on multiples of earnings derived from 
observable market data of comparable public companies. We evaluate companies within our industry that have operations 
with observable and comparable economic characteristics and are similar in nature, scope and size to the reporting unit 
being compared. We analyze historical acquisitions in our industry to estimate a control premium that we incorporate into 
the fair value estimate of a reporting unit under the market approach. 

In addition, determining the carrying value of each reporting unit requires judgment and involves the assignment of assets 
and liabilities to the reporting units based on a systematic and rational allocation methodology. Certain assets and 
liabilities may be specifically identified and assigned to a reporting unit based on the information contained within our 
financial systems; whereas, other assets and liabilities may be allocated using measurable relationships or other basis for 
allocation.

With the completion of the Scitor acquisition in May 2015, we established a new reporting unit (Intelligence Community/Air 
Force Customer Group) primarily consisting of a majority of the former Scitor business. This reporting unit has a goodwill 
balance of $482 million. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017, we completed our annual goodwill impairment testing and 
determined that the excess of fair value over the carrying value (the “excess”) for this new reporting unit was 
approximately 8%, or $51 million. However, if future operating results are lower than anticipated or there are increases in 
market participant cost of capital, then a reduction in, or elimination of, the excess and potential impairment charges could 
result. There was significant cushion associated with the Company’s other reporting units as of the fourth quarter fiscal 
2017 annual goodwill impairment test date.

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

Income Taxes. Our income tax expense, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits 
reflect our best estimate of current and future taxes to be paid and includes judgments related to matters for which 
ultimate resolution may not become known until the final resolution of an examination by taxing authorities or the statute 
of limitations lapses.

We record net deferred tax assets to the extent we believe these assets will more likely than not be realized. In making 
this 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 operating results. 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 either decrease or increase, respectively, the provision for 
income taxes.

We also recognize liabilities for uncertainty in income taxes when it is more likely than not that a tax position will not be 
sustained on examination and settlement with various taxing authorities. Liabilities for any uncertainty in income taxes are 
measured based on our estimate of the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on 
ultimate settlement.

-33-

SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

Stock-Based Compensation. We issue stock-based awards, including stock options, vesting stock awards and 
performance share awards as compensation to employees and directors. These awards are accounted for as equity 
awards. We recognize stock-based compensation expense net of estimated forfeitures on a straight-line basis over the 
underlying award’s requisite service period, as measured using the award’s grant date fair value. For performance share 
awards, we reassess the probability of achieving the performance conditions at each reporting period and adjust 
compensation expense based on the number of shares we expect to ultimately issue. Absent sufficient history as a stand-
alone company, we estimate forfeitures using former Parent’s historical experience. 

We use the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to calculate the grant date fair value of stock options awarded. The model 
calculates the fair value based on input assumptions about, among other things, employee exercise behavior and the 
expected volatility of our common stock. The assumptions used in the model represent our best estimates, but these 
estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of judgment. As a result, if factors change and we use 
different assumptions, our stock-based compensation expense could be materially different in the future. In addition, we 
are required to estimate the expected forfeiture rate and recognize expense only for those awards expected to vest. If our 
actual forfeiture rate is materially different from our estimate, the stock-based compensation expense could be 
significantly different from what we have recorded over the awards’ respective service periods. For further discussion on 
the assumptions used, see Note 6 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements contained within this report.

Recently Issued But Not Yet Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

For information on recently issued but not yet adopted accounting pronouncements, see Note 1 of the notes to the 
consolidated financial statements contained within this report.

Effects of Inflation

For any of the most recent three fiscal years ended February 3, 2017, inflation has not had a significant impact on 
revenues or costs. Most of our contracts are paid in U.S. dollars and our cost to perform on these contracts are generally 
paid in U.S. dollars, so inflation risk is generally limited to that which is related to the U.S. dollar. Approximately 41% of 
our revenues for fiscal 2017 were derived from cost-reimbursement type contracts, which have limited inflation risk 
because our contracts generally entail the provision of labor on a reimbursable basis, and, when materials are acquired, 
they provide for billing to the customer during the period in which the materials were received. Bids for longer-term FFP 
and T&M contracts typically include sufficient provisions for labor and other cost escalations to cover anticipated cost 
increases over the period of performance. As a result, if we were to experience significant levels of inflation, our revenues 
and costs for cost-type contracts would generally both increase commensurate with inflation and operating income as a 
percentage of total revenues would not be significantly affected. Operating income as a percentage of total revenues 
would not be significantly affected for longer-term FFP and T&M contracts to the extent that bid contract cost escalations 
are sufficient to cover heightened inflation levels. 

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to certain market risks in the normal course of business. The following information about our market 
sensitive financial instruments contains forward-looking statements.

Foreign Currency Risk

Since the substantial majority of our business is conducted in U.S. dollars, a 10% change in any foreign currency 
exchange rates would not have a material impact to our financial condition or results of operations.

SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION

Interest Rate Risk

Debt obligations. Our financial risk management objective is to reduce variability in earnings from changes in interest 
rates, which we may manage through operational means or the use of financial instruments, such as interest rate swaps. 
We have approximately $1.1 billion of variable rate debt. The fair value of our outstanding long-term debt obligations 
approximates its carrying value. In connection with the issuances of our variable rate Term Loan A and Term Loan B 
Facilities, we entered into fixed interest rate swap agreements, effectively converting a substantial portion of our variable 
rate debt to fixed rate debt in order to mitigate our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. We expect to evaluate any 
additional debt that we incur in the future in accordance with our risk management objectives. A hypothetical 50 basis 
points (bps) change to interest rates would not materially change our results of operations or cash flows. For additional 
information related to our debt and interest rate swap agreements, see Note 9 and Note 10, respectively, of the notes to 
the consolidated financial statements contained in this report.

Derivatives. As of February 3, 2017, the fair value of our fixed interest rate swaps was $3 million (liability). Under the swap 
agreements, we pay a fixed rate and the counterparties to the agreements pay a floating interest rate based on 1-month 
or 3-month LIBOR. A hypothetical 50 bps change in the 1-month LIBOR and 3-month LIBOR curves would change the fair 
value of the fixed interest rate swaps up to $8 million (liability or asset). Since the interest rate swaps are accounted for as 
cash flow hedges, the change in fair value is reported as a component of equity (accumulated other comprehensive 
income or loss). We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. For 
additional information related to calculating the fair value of our interest rate swaps, see Note 10 of the consolidated 
financial statements included in this report.

Cash equivalents. A 10% unfavorable interest rate movement for interest earned on our cash and cash equivalents would 
not materially impact the value of our cash holdings and would have a negligible impact on interest income at current 
market interest rates.

Inflation Risk

We have generally been able to anticipate increases in costs when pricing our contracts. Bids for longer-term FFP 
contracts typically include labor and other cost escalations in amounts that historically have been sufficient to cover cost 
increases over the period of contract performance.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 that 
materially affected, or are 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 GAAP.

Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of 
records that, in reasonable detail, completely, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; 
(ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of the financial 
statements in accordance with GAAP; (iii) provide reasonable assurance that our receipts and expenditures are made 
only in accordance with the authorization of our management and directors; and (iv) provide reasonable assurance 
regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could have a 
material effect on the consolidated financial statements. Internal control over financial reporting includes the controls 
themselves, monitoring and internal auditing practices and actions taken to correct deficiencies as identified.

Our management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the 
effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of February 3, 2017 based on the framework established in 
the 2013 Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway 
Commission. Our management has assessed in its evaluation the effectiveness of our internal control over financial 
reporting as of February 3, 2017 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 report and our internal control over financial reporting, and the firm’s report on our internal control over 
financial reporting are set forth below this report.

Although our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, is responsible for 
establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, because of inherent limitations, our 
management does not expect that our internal controls over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all 
fraud. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness in such assessment to future periods are subject to the risk that 
controls may be inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or 
procedures may deteriorate.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of 
Science Applications International Corporation
McLean, Virginia

We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Science Applications International Corporation and 
subsidiaries (the "Company") as of February 3, 2017, based on the criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated 
Framework (2013)  issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. 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 conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United 
States). 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.

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company's 
principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the company's 
board of directors, management, and other personnel 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 the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or 
improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or 
detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial 
reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in 
conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of 
February 3, 2017, based on the criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the 
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United 
States), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended February 3, 2017 of the Company and 
our report dated March 30, 2017 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

For information required by Item 12 with respect to the security ownership of certain beneficial owners and management, 
see the information set forth under the caption “Other Information” in the 2017 Definitive Proxy Statement, which 
information is incorporated by reference into this report.

We currently maintain four shareholder-approved equity compensation plans that issue stock-based awards including the 
2013 Equity Incentive Plan, the Stock Compensation Plan, the Management Stock Compensation Plan and the 2013 
Employee Stock Purchase Plan. For summaries of these plans, see Note 6 of the notes to the consolidated financial 
statements contained within this report. The following table provides the number of shares of our common stock subject to 
stock options, the weighted-average exercise price of the outstanding stock options and the number of shares remaining 
for future award grants as of February 3, 2017:

(1) This amount includes 1,907,763 stock options outstanding and 1,777,156 shares issuable for other stock-based awards under the 

2013 Equity Incentive Plan. This amount does not include shares to be issued pursuant to purchase rights under the 2013 
Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

(2) Does not include shares to be issued for stock-based awards, other than stock options, which will not require any payment upon 

(3)

issuance of those shares.
Includes 3,162,490 shares of our common stock available for issuance under the 2013 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP). 
The maximum number of shares initially available for issuance under the ESPP was 1 million. The ESPP provides for an automatic 
increase to the share reserve on the first day of each fiscal year beginning on February 1, 2014 in an amount equal to the lesser of 
(i) 1 million shares, (ii) two percent of the number of shares of our common stock outstanding on the last day of the immediately 
preceding fiscal year or (iii) a number determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The amount 
authorized for issuance under the ESPP increased 500,000, 916,198, and 973,477 during fiscal 2017, 2016, and 2015, 
respectively. In addition, this includes 2,796,663 shares of our common stock available for issuance under the 2013 Equity 
Incentive Plan (EIP). The maximum number of shares initially available for issuance under the EIP was 5.7 million, which was 
increased by 2.8 million per the amended and restated 2013 Equity Incentive Plan, adopted June 4, 2014, amounting to a total 
authorized for issuance of 8.5 million. We expect that the number of shares actually issued under the EIP will be significantly less 
than the number of total awards outstanding under the plan because (a) a net option exercise results in a smaller portion of the 
number of award shares being issued when a participant uses award shares, rather than cash, to pay the exercise price, which 
historically most participants have elected to do, (b) most participants historically have elected to let the Company retain award 
shares to pay for taxes due on the exercise of options and all participants are required to use award shares to pay for taxes upon 
the vesting of restricted stock or restricted stock units, (c) some participants may terminate employment with the Company before 
the vesting of awards resulting in awards being forfeited and (d) some participants may not exercise stock options before the 
expiration date for a variety of reasons, including if the exercise price exceeds the then current market price of shares.

For information required by Item 13 with respect to certain relationships and related transactions and the independence of 
directors and nominees, see the information set forth under the caption “Corporate Governance” in the 2017 Definitive

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of 
Science Applications International Corporation
McLean, Virginia

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Science Applications International Corporation and 
subsidiaries (the "Company") as of the fiscal years ended February 3, 2017, and January 29, 2016, and the related 
consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three 
fiscal years in the period ended February 3, 2017. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's 
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United 
States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting 
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used 
and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We 
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of 
Science Applications International Corporation and subsidiaries as of February 3, 2017 and January 29, 2016, and the 
results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three fiscal years in the period ended February 3, 2017, 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), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of February 3, 2017, based on the criteria established in 
Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway 
Commission and our report dated March 30, 2017 expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company's internal control 
over financial reporting.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1—Business Overview and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

Overview

Description of Business. Science Applications International Corporation (collectively, with its consolidated subsidiaries, the 
“Company”) is a leading provider of technical, engineering and enterprise information technology (IT) services primarily to 
the U.S. government. The Company provides engineering and integration services for large, complex projects and offers a 
broad range of services with a targeted emphasis on higher-end, differentiated technology services. The Company is 
organized as a matrix comprised of five operating segments supported by several service line organizations.  Each of the 
Company’s operating segments is focused on providing the Company’s comprehensive technical and enterprise IT 
service offerings to one or more agencies of the U.S federal government. The Company’s operating segments have been 
aggregated into one reporting segment for financial reporting purposes, as discussed in Note 13.

Acquisition of Scitor. On May 4, 2015, the Company acquired 100% of privately held Scitor Holdings, Inc. (Scitor), a 
leading global provider of technical services to the U.S. intelligence community and other U.S. government customers.  
This strategic acquisition enabled the Company to gain sufficient scale to competitively pursue opportunities within the 
intelligence community.

Separation from Former Parent. The Company commenced its operations on September 27, 2013 (the Distribution Date) 
following completion of a tax-free spin-off transaction from its former parent company, Leidos Holdings, Inc. (formerly 
SAIC, Inc., collectively with its consolidated subsidiaries, “former Parent”). In the spin-off transaction, former Parent’s 
technical, engineering and enterprise IT services business was separated (the separation) into an independent, publicly 
traded company named Science Applications International Corporation (formerly SAIC Gemini, Inc.).

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

References to “financial statements” refer to the consolidated financial statements of the Company, which include the 
statements of income and comprehensive income, balance sheets, statements of equity and statements of cash flows. 
These financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). All 
intercompany transactions and account balances within the Company have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and 
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingencies at the date of 
the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. 
Significant estimates inherent in the preparation of the financial statements may include, but are not limited to: estimated 
profitability of long-term contracts, income taxes, fair value measurements, fair value of goodwill and other intangible 
assets, and contingencies. Estimates have been prepared by management on the basis of the most current and best 
available information at the time of estimation and actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reporting Periods

The Company utilizes a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Friday closest to January 31, with fiscal quarters typically 
consisting of 13 weeks. Fiscal 2015 began on February 1, 2014 and ended on January 30, 2015, fiscal 2016 began on 
January 31, 2015 and ended on January 29, 2016, and fiscal 2017 began on January 30, 2016 and ended on February 3, 
2017. The number of weeks for each quarter for fiscal 2017 and 2016 are as follows:

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenues are generated primarily from long-term contracts with the U.S. government including 
subcontracts with other contractors engaged in work for the U.S. government. The Company also generates revenues 
from contracts with commercial and international customers, and state and local governments. The Company performs 
under various types of contracts, which include firm-fixed price (FFP), time-and-materials (T&M), cost-plus-fixed-fee, cost-
plus-award-fee and cost-plus-incentive-fee contracts.

FFP contracts—Revenues and profits on these contracts that are system integration or engineering in nature are 
primarily recognized using percentage-of-completion accounting in which revenues and profits are recognized based 
on the ratio of actual incurred costs to total estimated costs to complete (cost-to-cost method).

T&M contracts—Revenues are recognized on T&M contracts with the U.S. government using the percentage-of-
completion method of accounting utilizing an output measure of progress. Revenues are recognized on T&M contracts 
with non-U.S. government customers using a proportional performance method. Under both of these methods 
revenues are recognized based on the hours provided in contract performance multiplied by the negotiated contract 
billing rates, and, for contract materials and reimbursable out-of-pocket expenses, as the costs are incurred.

Cost-plus-fixed-fee contracts—Revenues are recognized on cost-plus-fixed-fee contracts with the U.S. government on 
the basis of partial performance equal to costs incurred, plus an estimate of applicable fees earned as the Company 
becomes contractually entitled to reimbursement of costs and the applicable fees.

Cost-plus-award-fee/cost-plus-incentive-fee contracts—Revenues and fees on these contracts with the U.S. 
government are primarily recognized using the percentage-of-completion method of accounting. The Company 
includes an estimate of the ultimate incentive or award fee to be received on the contract in the estimate of contract 
revenues for purposes of applying the percentage-of-completion method of accounting.

The Company also uses the efforts-expended method of percentage-of-completion accounting in which an alternative 
measure that is more representative of contract progress is used for measuring progress toward completion. For example, 
the efforts-expended method is utilized when there are significant amounts of materials or hardware procured for the 
contract and the timing of these purchases is not representative of contract progress. In these cases, an alternative 
measure such as the ratio of actual incurred labor dollars to total estimated labor dollars may be more representative of 
progress and, therefore, would be used to determine revenues earned on the contract. 

Additionally, the Company utilizes the units-of-delivery method on contracts where separate units of output are produced. 
Under the units-of-delivery method, revenues are generally recognized when the units are delivered to the customer, 
provided that all other requirements for revenue recognition have been met. The Company recognizes revenue on our 
supply chain and logistics arrangements as the services are provided to the customer under a single profit center using an 
output method (units-of-delivery) measure of progress. Service revenues are recorded gross of reimbursable material 
costs, as well as fees, when the Company is responsible for the ultimate acceptability of performance of the contract 
based on the timely fulfillment of conforming materials delivered to the customer.

Contract costs (including allocated indirect costs) that are incurred for U.S. government contracts are subject to audit and 
adjustment through negotiations between government representatives and the Company and, depending on the outcome 
of the negotiations, may impact the amount of revenues and profit earned by the Company. Revenues on U.S. 
government contracts have been recorded in amounts that are expected to be realized on final settlement. Contract 
claims are unanticipated additional costs incurred but not provided for in the executed contract price that the Company 
seeks to recover from the customer. Such costs are expensed as incurred. Additional revenues related to contract claims 
are recognized when the amounts are awarded by the customer. The Company provides for anticipated losses on 
contracts accounted for using the percentage-of-completion revenue recognition method by recording an expense 
representing the total expected loss, during the period in which the losses are determined. Amounts billed and collected 
by not yet recognized as revenues under certain types of contracts are deferred.

SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Revenues from services and maintenance contracts are recognized over the term of the respective contracts as the 
services are performed. The Company evaluates its contracts for multiple elements and, when appropriate, separates the 
contracts into separate units of accounting for revenue and profit recognition purposes.

Changes in Estimates on Contracts

Changes in estimates of revenues, cost of revenues or profits related to contracts accounted for using the cost-to-cost 
and efforts expended methods of percentage-of-completion accounting are recognized in operating income in the period 
in which such changes are made for the inception-to-date effect of the changes. Changes in these estimates can routinely 
occur over the contract performance period for a variety of reasons, which include: changes in contract scope; changes in 
contract cost estimates due to unanticipated cost growth or reassessments of risks impacting costs; changes in estimated 
incentive or award fees; and performance being better or worse than previously estimated.

Changes in contract estimates were:

Unfavorable adjustments

The Company issues stock-based awards as compensation to employees and directors. Stock-based awards include 
stock options, vesting stock awards and performance share awards. These awards are accounted for as equity awards. 
The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense net of estimated forfeitures on a straight-line basis over the 
underlying award’s requisite service period, as measured using the award’s grant date fair value. For performance share 
awards, the Company reassesses the probability of achieving the performance conditions at each reporting period end 
and adjusts compensation expense based on the number of shares the Company expects to ultimately issue. Absent 
sufficient history as a stand-alone company, the Company estimates forfeitures using former Parent’s historical 
experience.

Income Taxes 

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method of accounting, which requires the 
recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences 
between the carrying amounts and the 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. The provision for federal, state, local and foreign 
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. Recording the provision for income taxes 
requires management to make significant judgments and estimates for matters for which the ultimate resolution may not 
become known until the final resolution of an examination by taxing authorities or the statute of limitations lapses. 
Additionally, recording liabilities for uncertainty in income taxes involves significant judgment in evaluating the Company’s 
tax positions and developing the best estimate of the taxes ultimately expected to be paid. Tax penalties and interest are 
included in income tax expense.

SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Company records net deferred tax assets to the extent these assets will more likely than not be realized. In making 
such determination, the Company considers 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 it is determined that the Company would be able to realize the deferred income tax assets in the future in 
excess of their net recorded amount or would no longer be able to realize the deferred income tax assets in the future as 
currently recorded, an adjustment would be made to the valuation allowance which would decrease or increase the 
provision for income taxes.

The Company has also recognized liabilities for uncertainty in income taxes when it is more likely than not that a tax 
position will not be sustained on examination and settlement with various taxing authorities. Liabilities for uncertainty in 
income taxes are measured based on the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon 
ultimate settlement.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are netted by taxable jurisdiction and classified as noncurrent on the consolidated 
balance sheets.

Costs Allocated to Contracts

The Company classifies indirect costs as overhead (included in cost of revenues) or general and administrative expenses 
in the same manner as such costs are defined in the Company’s Disclosure Statements under U.S. government Cost 
Accounting Standards (CAS).

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are comprised of cash in banks and highly liquid instruments, which primarily consist of bank 
deposits and investments in institutional money market funds. The Company does not invest in high yield or high risk 
securities. The cash in bank accounts at times may exceed federally insured limits.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash consists of cash on deposit in rabbi trusts that are contractually restricted from use in operations, but are 
subject to future claims of creditors. At February 3, 2017, $8 million of restricted cash was held in rabbi trust accounts 
which are restricted to fund future payment obligations, including obligations assumed in connection with the acquisition of 
Scitor and deferred compensation plans. Of this amount, $1 million is presented in other current assets and $7 million in 
other assets in the consolidated balance sheets.  At January 29, 2016, $14 million of restricted cash was held in rabbi 
trust accounts.  Of this amount $7 million is presented in other current assets and $7 million in other assets in the 
consolidated balance sheets.

Receivables

Receivables include outstanding invoices billed to customers, unbilled receivables and contract retentions. The 
Company’s receivables are primarily due from the U.S. government, or from prime contractors on which we are 
subcontractors and the end customer is the U.S. government, and are generally considered collectable from the 
perspective of the customer’s ability to pay. The Company does not have a material credit risk exposure. 

Unbilled receivables, substantially all of which are expected to be billed and collected within one year, are stated at their 
estimated realizable value and consist of costs and fees billable on contract completion or the occurrence of a specified 
event. Legal title to the related accumulated costs of contracts in progress generally vests with the U.S. government on 
the Company’s receipt of progress payments. Progress payments received of $56 million are offset against unbilled 
receivables as of February 3, 2017; no progress payments offset unbilled receivables as of January 29, 2016. Contract 
retentions are billed when contract conditions have been met and may relate to uncompleted indirect cost negotiations 
with the U.S. government. Based on historical experience, the majority of retention balances are expected to be collected 
beyond one year and write-offs of retention balances have not been significant. The Company establishes an allowance 
for doubtful accounts based on the latest information available to determine whether outstanding invoices are ultimately 
collectable. The Company determines its allowance for doubtful accounts by analyzing individual receivables, historical 
bad debts, and, for non-U.S. government customers, customer creditworthiness. Receivable balances are written off in 
the period during which management determines they are uncollectable, and, at that time, such balances are removed 
from billed receivables and, if previously reserved, from the allowance for doubtful accounts. 

Inventory

Inventory is substantially comprised of finished goods inventory purchased for resale to customers, such as tires and 
lubricants, and is valued at the lower of cost or market. The Company evaluates current inventory against historical and 
planned usage to estimate the appropriate provision for obsolete inventory.

Business Combinations

The Company records all tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination at fair 
value as of the acquisition date, which is determined using a cost, market or income approach. The excess amount of the 
aggregated purchase consideration paid over the fair value of the net of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is 
recorded as goodwill. Acquisition date fair value represents the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to 
transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as measured on the acquisition date.

The valuations are based on information that existed as of the acquisition date. During the measurement period that shall 
not exceed one year from the acquisition date, the Company may retrospectively adjust provisional amounts recorded for 
assets acquired and liabilities assumed to reflect new information that the Company has subsequently obtained regarding 
facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date.

Acquisition-related costs that are not part of the purchase price consideration are expensed as incurred. These costs 
typically include transaction-related costs, such as finder’s fees, and legal, accounting and other professional costs.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill is recorded as the difference, if any, between the aggregate consideration paid for an acquisition and the fair 
value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible 
assets are not amortized, but rather are tested for potential impairment annually at the beginning of the fourth quarter, or 
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. There were no 
impairments during the periods presented.

The goodwill impairment test is performed at the reporting unit level. The Company estimates and compares the fair value 
of each reporting unit to its respective carrying value including goodwill. The fair value of the Company’s reporting units 
are determined using either a market approach, income approach, or a combination of both, which involves the use of 
estimates and assumptions, including projected future operating results and cash flows, the cost of capital, and financial 
measures derived from observable market data of comparable public companies. If the fair value is less than the carrying 

F-11

SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

value, the amount of impairment expense is equal to the difference between the reporting unit’s fair value and the 
reporting unit’s carrying value.

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

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

The Company evaluates its 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 future undiscounted cash flows. When the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its estimated future 
undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized to reduce the asset’s carrying amount to its estimated fair 
value based on the present value of its estimated future cash flows.

Commitments and Contingencies

Accruals for commitments and loss contingencies are recorded when it is both probable that they will occur and the 
amounts can be reasonably estimated. In addition, legal fees are accrued for cases where a loss is probable and the 
related fees can be reasonably estimated. Significant judgment is required to determine both probability and the estimated 
amount of loss. The Company reviews these accruals quarterly and adjusts the accruals to reflect the impact of 
negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel and other updated information.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company utilizes fair value measurement guidance prescribed by GAAP to value its financial instruments. The 
accounting standard for fair value measurements establishes a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used 
in measuring fair value as follows: observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets (Level 1); inputs other than 
the quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly (Level 2); and unobservable inputs in 
which there is little or no market data, which requires the Company to develop its own assumptions (Level 3).

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and other amounts included in other 
current assets and current liabilities that meet the definition of a financial instrument approximate fair value because of the 
short-term nature of these amounts. The carrying value of the Company’s outstanding debt obligations approximates its 
fair value. The fair value of long-term debt is calculated using Level 2 inputs, based on interest rates available for debt 
with terms and maturities similar to the Company’s existing debt arrangements.

Derivative Instruments Designated as Cash Flow Hedges

Derivative instruments are recorded on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on 
derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are reported in other comprehensive (loss) income and reclassified to 
earnings in a manner that matches the timing of the earnings impact of the hedged transactions. The ineffective portion of 
all hedges, if any, is recognized immediately in earnings.

F-12

SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Company’s fixed interest rate swaps are considered over-the-counter derivatives, and fair value is calculated using a 
standard pricing model for interest rate swaps with contractual terms for maturities, amortization and interest rates. Level 
2, or market observable inputs (such as yield and credit curves), are used within the standard pricing models in order to 
determine fair value. The fair value is an estimate of the amount that the Company would pay or receive as of a 
measurement date if the agreements were transferred to a third party or canceled. See Note 10 for further discussion on 
the Company’s derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges.

Operating Cycle

The Company’s 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. Contract-related assets and liabilities are 
classified as current assets and current liabilities.

Research and Development

The Company conducts research and development activities under customer-funded contracts and with company-funded 
independent research and development (IR&D) funds. IR&D efforts consist of projects involving basic research, applied 
research, development, and systems and other concept formulation studies. Company-funded IR&D expense is included 
in selling, general and administrative expenses and was $4 million, $4 million and $5 million in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 
2015, respectively. Customer-funded research and development activities performed under customer contracts are 
charged directly to cost of revenues for those particular contracts.

Accounting Standards Updates

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-
09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements and 
some cost guidance included in the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC). This ASU is based on the principle that 
revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration 
to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU also requires additional 
disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, 
including significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a 
contract. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Deferral of the Effective Date, resulting in a one-year deferral of 
the effective date of ASU 2014-09, which will become effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2019, using 
one of two retrospective methods of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effects on its financial 
statements as well as its accounting policies and procedures. The Company has identified an implementation project 
team, related oversight processes and has commenced the assessment phase of the project. The Company has not 
selected a method for adoption nor determined the potential effects on its financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which supersedes the existing lease 
accounting standards (Topic 840). Under the new guidance, a lessee will be required to recognize lease assets and lease 
liabilities for all leases with lease terms in excess of twelve months. The recognition, measurement and presentation of 
expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee primarily will depend on its classification as either a finance 
lease or operating lease. The criteria for distinction between a finance lease and an operating lease are substantially 
similar to existing lease guidance for capital leases and operating leases. Some changes to lessor accounting have been 
made to conform and align that guidance with the lessee guidance and other areas within GAAP, such as Revenue from 
Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). ASU 2016-02 becomes effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 
and will be adopted using a modified retrospective approach. The Company has commenced the assessment phase of 
the project and is evaluating the impact on its financial statements from the future adoption of the standard.

F-13

SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which 
provides amendments to simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions.  Among other 
requirements in the new standard, the ASU requires that an entity, (i) recognize excess tax benefits and deficiencies 
related to employee share-based payment transactions as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement rather 
than in equity; and (ii) present the excess tax benefits as an operating activity on the statement of cash flows versus 
current guidance to present them as financing activities. ASU 2016-09 becomes effective for the Company in the first 
quarter of fiscal 2018. On adoption, the amendments will be applied retrospectively or prospectively based on each 
amendment’s transition requirements. The amounts of excess tax benefits and deficiencies recognized are determined, in 
part, by the difference between the grant date fair value of share-based payments and the price of the Company’s 
common stock on the date on which the share-based payments vest or options are exercised. As such, the Company 
cannot estimate the impact of the future adoption of the ASU on our earnings and cash flows from operating activities.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, which 
requires entities to show the changes in the total of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and restricted cash 
equivalents in the statement of cash flows. As a result, entities will no longer present transfers between cash and cash 
equivalents and restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-18 becomes 
effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and will be applied retrospectively. The Company is evaluating 
the impact on its financial statements resulting from the future adoption of the standard.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangible--Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for 
Goodwill Impairment, which eliminates Step 2, from the annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test. As a result, entities 
should perform their annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its 
carrying amount recognizing an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting 
unit’s fair value. The Company elected to early adopt this ASU on January 1, 2017 on prospective basis from the date of 
the adoption. The adoption of this standard had no material impact to the Company’s financial statements.

Other Accounting Standards Updates effective after February 3, 2017 are not expected to have a material effect on the 
Company’s financial statements.

Note 2—Earnings Per Share, Share Repurchases and Dividends:

Earnings per Share (EPS)

Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income by the basic weighted average number of shares outstanding. Diluted EPS 
is computed similarly to basic EPS, except the weighted average number of shares outstanding is increased to include the 
dilutive effect of outstanding stock options and other stock-based awards.

 A reconciliation of the weighted average number of shares outstanding used to compute basic and diluted EPS was:

Share Repurchases

The Company may repurchase shares in accordance with established repurchase plans. The Company retires its 
common stock upon repurchase with the excess over par value allocated to additional paid-in capital. The Company has 
not made any material purchases of common stock other than in connection with established share repurchase plans. On 
December 15, 2016, the number of shares of our common stock that may be repurchased under our existing repurchase 
plan, previously announced in October 2013, was increased by approximately 3.3 million shares, bringing the total 
authorized shares to be repurchased under the plan to approximately 11.8 million shares. As of February 3, 2017, the 
Company has repurchased approximately 7.1 million shares of common stock under the plan.

Dividends

The Company declared and paid quarterly dividends every quarter for the years presented, increasing from $0.28 to $0.31 
per share in the second quarter of fiscal 2016. Total dividends declared and paid were $1.24 per share during fiscal 2017, 
$1.21 per share during fiscal 2016, and $1.12 per share during fiscal 2015.

On March 29, 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.31 per share of the Company’s 
common stock payable on April 28, 2017 to stockholders of record on April 14, 2017.

Note 3—Scitor Acquisition: 

On May 4, 2015 the Company completed the acquisition of Scitor, a leading global provider of technical services to the 
U.S. intelligence community and other U.S. government customers. The acquisition was funded from cash on hand and 
increased borrowings. Purchase consideration paid to acquire Scitor was $764 million (net of cash acquired), including 
$43 million which was deposited to escrow accounts. In August 2015 $3 million was released from escrow to the sellers 
after finalizing the working capital adjustment and another $13 million was released in September 2016 that was held in 
escrow to secure a portion of the sellers’ indemnification obligations. Any remaining amount in escrow at the end of the 
indemnification period will be distributed to the sellers.

The purchase price was allocated among assets acquired and liabilities assumed at fair value based on the best available 
information, with the excess purchase price recorded as goodwill. During the first quarter of fiscal 2017, the Company 
completed its review of Scitor’s historical government accounting practices and adjusted the preliminary purchase price 
allocation to recognize $5 million in additional liabilities for potential questioned costs under U.S. Government Cost 
Accounting Standards (CAS) and $2 million of related deferred income tax assets resulting in a $3 million net increase to 
goodwill. The Company has completed the purchase accounting valuation for this transaction and recorded final purchase

As discussed in Note 8, the Company inherited Scitor’s historical tax basis in deductible goodwill, certain other intangible 
assets and net operating loss carryforwards.

The Company incurred $54 million in total costs associated with the acquisition and integration of Scitor. Acquisition-
related expenses, all of which were incurred in prior fiscal years, were $28 million, including $17 million of deferred 
financing fees. Acquisition-related expenses for fiscal 2016 and fiscal 2015 were $10 million and $1 million, respectively. 
The Company also incurred $10 million in fiscal 2017 and $16 million in fiscal 2016 for expenses in connection with the 
integration of Scitor, primarily for strategic consulting services, facility consolidation, severance costs and other 
integration-related costs. These costs are included in acquisition and integration costs on the consolidated statements of 
income and comprehensive income.

Note 6—Stock-Based Compensation:

Plan Summaries

Certain of the Company’s employees participate in the following four stock-based compensation plans: “2013 Equity 
Incentive Plan” (EIP), “Management Compensation Plan,” “Stock Compensation Plan,” and “Employee Stock Purchase 
Plan” (ESPP) which are herein referred to together as the “Plans.” The Company issues new shares on the vesting of 
stock awards or exercise of stock options under these Plans.

The EIP provides the Company’s employees and directors the opportunity to receive various types of stock-based 
compensation and cash awards. The terms of the stock-based awards granted to employees and directors are the same, 
except that those for directors cliff vest within one year of the grant date. As of February 3, 2017, the Company has 
outstanding stock options, vested and vesting stock awards, performance share awards and cash awards under this plan. 
Vesting stock awards and stock options granted under the EIP prior to fiscal 2015 generally vest or become exercisable 
20%, 20%, 20%, and 40% after one, two, three and four years, respectively. Stock options granted under the EIP in fiscal 
2015 and thereafter generally become exercisable 33%, 33% and 33% after one, two and three years, respectively, while 
vesting stock awards granted in fiscal 2015 and thereafter generally vest 25%, 25%, 25% and 25% after one, two, three 
and four years, respectively. The maximum contractual term for stock options granted under the EIP is ten years, but

SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

historically the Company has granted stock options with a seven-year contractual term. Vesting may be accelerated for 
employees meeting retirement eligibility conditions. Stock-based awards generally provide for accelerated vesting if there 
is a change in control (as defined in the EIP). Vesting stock awards and performance share awards have forfeitable rights 
to dividends. In June 2014, the EIP was amended and restated to increase the total authorized shares of common stock 
for issuance under the EIP from 5.7 million to 8.5 million.

The Company grants performance-based stock awards to certain officers and key employees under the EIP. Performance 
shares are rights to receive shares of the Company’s stock on the satisfaction of service requirements and performance 
conditions. These awards cliff vest at the end of the third fiscal year following the grant date, subject to meeting the 
minimum service requirements and the achievement of certain annual and cumulative financial metrics of the Company’s 
performance, with the number of shares ultimately issued, if any, ranging up to 150% of the specified target shares. If 
performance is below the minimum threshold level of performance, no shares will be issued. For all performance share 
awards granted, the annual financial metrics are based on operating cash flows and the cumulative financial metrics are 
based on operating income. 

The Company has a Management Stock Compensation Plan and a Stock Compensation Plan, together referred to as the 
“Stock Compensation Plans.” The Board of Directors may at any time amend or terminate the Stock Compensation Plans. 
The Stock Compensation Plans provide for awards in share units to eligible employees. Benefits from these plans are 
payable in shares of the Company’s stock that are held in a trust for the purpose of funding benefit payments to the 
participants. Compensation expense is generally recognized over the vesting period of four years and vest 100% after 
four years following the date of the award. The Stock Compensation Plans permit a vesting period up to seven years after 
the date of grant. During fiscal 2017 all remaining outstanding awards in the Stock Compensation Plans vested, and all 
share awards for the Stock Compensation Plan were distributed upon vesting. In the event of a change in control of the 
Company (as defined by the Management Stock Compensation Plan), participant accounts will be immediately 
distributed, otherwise will generally be distributed upon retirement, based on the participant’s payout election, or upon 
termination. The Stock Compensation Plans do not provide for a maximum number of shares available for future 
issuance. 

Prior to the separation, certain Company employees and directors participated in stock-based compensation plans 
sponsored by former Parent that were denominated in former Parent’s common shares. At separation, all unvested stock 
awards and all outstanding stock options held by the Company’s employees and directors under former Parent’s plans 
converted into awards under the Plans. This conversion was designed to maintain the same intrinsic value of the awards 
immediately before and after the separation. The converted awards have substantially the same terms and conditions as 
immediately before the separation under former Parent’s plans. Unrecognized compensation expense as of the 
separation date related to the converted awards is recognized by the Company over the remaining vesting periods of the 
awards.

The Company’s ESPP allows eligible employees to purchase shares of the Company’s stock at a discount of up to 15% of 
the fair market value on the date of purchase. During the three years ended February 3, 2017, the discount was 5% of the 
fair market value on the date of purchase for purchases made under the Company’s ESPP, thereby resulting in the ESPP 
being non-compensatory. As of February 3, 2017, 3.4 million shares of the Company’s stock are authorized for issuance 
under the ESPP.

The fair value of stock option awards granted under the Company’s plan were valued using the Black-Scholes option-
pricing model based on the following assumptions:

Expected Term--The expected term is calculated using the U.S. Security and Exchange Commission’s “simplified 
method” as the midpoint between the vesting term and contractual term.

Expected Volatility--For options granted during fiscal 2017, the expected volatility was based on the historical 
volatility of SAIC since the separation from former Parent. For options granted during fiscal 2016 and fiscal 2015, the 
expected volatility is based on a leverage-adjusted daily average volatility of the Company’s peer group companies 
over a period consistent with the expected term. Peer group companies were selected from companies within the 
Company’s industry that most closely match the Company’s business, including size, capital structure and customer 
base.

Risk-Free Interest Rate--The risk-free interest rate is based on 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 date of grant.

Dividend Yield--The dividend yield assumed over the expected term of the option is based on the announced 
dividend as of the grant date and the three month average stock price as of the grant date.

The weighted average grant date fair value and assumptions used to determine the fair value of stock options granted for 
the periods presented were:

grant date fair value of the performance share awards granted for fiscal 2017, fiscal 2016, and fiscal 2015 was $53.34, 
$52.11 and $38.77, respectively. The grant date fair value of performance share awards is based on the closing market 
price of the Company’s common stock on the last trading day preceding the grant date. As of February 3, 2017 there was 
$3.8 million of unrecognized compensation cost, net of estimated forfeitures, related to performance share awards, which 
is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.6 years. 

Note 7—Retirement Plans:

Defined Contribution Plans

The Company sponsors the Science Applications International Corporation Retirement Plan (a defined contribution plan), 
which is both a 401(k) plan and an employee stock ownership plan, in which most employees are eligible to participate. 
Scitor sponsored the Scitor Corporation Salary Savings and Profit Sharing Plan, which was a 401(k) plan in which most 
employees of Scitor were eligible to participate. The Scitor Corporation Salary Savings and Profit Sharing Plan merged 
into the Science Applications International Corporation Retirement Plan on September 23, 2016.

The Science Applications International Corporation Retirement Plan allows eligible participants to contribute a portion of 
their income through payroll deductions and the Company may also make discretionary contributions. The Company 
contributions expensed for defined contribution plans were $48 million, $47 million and $34 million in fiscal 2017, 2016 
and 2015, respectively.

Deferred Compensation Plans

The Company has established the Science Applications International Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan (DCP), 
effective January 1, 2015, providing certain eligible employees and directors an opportunity to defer some or all of their 
compensation on an unfunded, nonqualified basis. Participant deferrals are fully vested and diversified at the participant’s 
direction among the investment options offered under the DCP. Participant accounts will be credited with a rate of return 
based on the performance of the investment options selected. Distributions are made in cash. Deferred balances will be 
paid on retirement, based on the participant’s payout election, or upon termination. The Company may provide 
discretionary contributions to participants, but no Company contributions have been made.

that may be held in trust for the purpose of funding benefit payments to KESDP participants. Vested deferred balances 
will generally be paid on retirement, based on the participant’s payout election, or upon termination.  

The Science Applications International Corporation 401(k) Excess Deferral Plan (Excess Plan) was also closed on 
December 31, 2014, and no further deferrals are allowed.  Participant deferrals are fully vested and diversified at the

due to an increase in the manufacturer’s deduction, and research and development credits, offset by non-deductible 
acquisition costs in fiscal 2016.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Beginning with fiscal 2014, the Company has filed income tax returns in the U.S. and various state jurisdictions, which 
may be subject to routine compliance reviews by the IRS and other taxing authorities. While the Company believes it has 
adequate accruals for uncertain tax positions, the tax authorities may determine that the Company owes taxes in excess 
of recorded accruals or the recorded accruals may be in excess of the final settlement amounts agreed to by tax 
authorities. The Company’s tax returns for fiscal 2016, 2015 and 2014 remain subject to examination by the IRS and 
various other tax jurisdictions. The Company is not responsible for any tax items on operations before the separation 
except for Scitor’s tax returns that remain subject to examination by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and various other 
tax jurisdictions from 2005 through the acquisition.

In fiscal 2016 the Company acquired all of Scitor’s stock in a transaction taxable to the selling shareholders. The 
Company inherited Scitor’s historical tax basis in deductible goodwill, certain other intangible assets, and operating loss 
carryforwards. At the date of the acquisition, the tax deductible goodwill was $136 million and the tax deductible identified 
intangible assets were $163 million. The Company inherited a federal and state net operating loss of $90 million subject to 
Internal Revenue Code Section 382 limitations. The Company expects to utilize these losses completely by fiscal 2020. 
The net operating losses will begin to expire in fiscal 2027.

The Company has $5 million of state credit carryforwards that will begin to expire in fiscal 2026.

As of February 3, 2017, the Company has a $1.3 billion credit facility (the Credit Facility) between the Company, as 
borrower, and Citibank, N.A. (Citibank), as administrative agent, which consists of a $200 million secured revolving credit 
facility (the Revolving Credit Facility), a $660 million secured term facility (Term Loan A Facility), and a $400 million 
secured term facility (Term Loan B Facility) (together, the Term Loan Facilities). The Revolving Credit Facility capacity is 
available to the Company through August 2021, but no draws have been made. Any obligations under the Credit Facility 
are secured by liens on substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries.

The Term Loan A Facility was funded in September 2013 in an initial aggregate principal amount of $500 million (Initial 
Term Loan A Facility). In order to fund the Scitor acquisition and related transaction costs, on May 4, 2015, through an 
amendment to the Credit Facility (Second Amended Credit Agreement), the Term Loan A Facility principal amount was 
increased by $100 million (Incremental Term Loan A); the Term Loan B Facility was funded with an initial aggregate 
principal amount of $570 million; and the prior existing Term Loan A and Revolving Credit Facility were converted from 
unsecured to secured facilities. Any obligations under the Credit Facility are secured by liens on substantially all of the 
assets of the Company and its subsidiaries.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

On August 23, 2016, the Company amended the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (Amendment) to 
extend the maturity of the Term Loan A Facility and the termination date of the Revolving Credit Facility from September 
2018 to August 2021, and to transfer $132 million of principal outstanding under the Term Loan B Facility to the Term 
Loan A Facility. Further, the Amendment lowered the interest rate margins on the Revolving Credit Facility and the Term 
Loan Facilities, reset the Term Loan A Facility’s quarterly principal repayment schedule and eliminated the required 
quarterly principal repayments for the Term Loan B Facility. In fiscal 2017, the Company recognized $5 million in 
expenses associated with the amendment, which is included in interest expense and includes $2 million in write-offs of 
unamortized debt issuance costs. The Company deferred an additional $2 million in financing fees that are amortized to 
interest expense utilizing the effective interest method.

Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear a variable rate of interest based on the Eurocurrency Rate or Base Rate, plus 
applicable margin. The applicable margin with respect to Term Loan A Facility and borrowings under the Revolving Credit 
Facility range from 1.50% to 2.25% for Eurocurrency Rate loans, and 0.50% to 1.25% for Base Rate loans. Interest rate 
margins for the Term Loan B Facility are 2.50%, subject to a 0.75% floor for Eurocurrency Rate loans or 1.50% for Base 
Rate loans. The Company also pays a commitment fee with respect to undrawn amounts under the Revolving Credit 
Facility ranging from 0.30% to 0.40%. Except for the Term Loan B Facility, the applicable margin and commitment fees 
will vary based on the Company’s leverage ratio.

Interest payments are due based on the type of loan selected. Interest in respect of Base Rate loans is payable quarterly 
in arrears on the last day of each calendar quarter. Interest in respect of Eurocurrency Rate loans is payable in arrears on 
the last day of the applicable interest period and every three months in the case of interest periods in excess of three 
months. The Term Loan A Facility and Term Loan B Facility are Eurocurrency Rate loans indexed to 1-month LIBOR and 
3-month LIBOR, respectively. Interest is due for the Term Loan A Facility on the last business day of every month while 
interest on the Term Loan B Facility is paid quarterly on the 7th of every August, November, February, and May.

The Term Loan A Facility principal under the Amendment is repaid quarterly on the last business day of each July, 
October, January, and April. The Company will make scheduled quarterly principal repayments of $8.3 million through 
July 31, 2018; $12.4 million between October 31, 2018 to July 31, 2019; and $16.5 million between October 31, 2019 and 
the Term Loan A Facility maturity date. The Term Loan B Facility principal under the Amendment is payable in full upon 
maturity. Prior to the Amendment, Term Loan B Facility principal amortized quarterly in an amount equal to $1.4 million 
plus accrued interest on the amount of principal repaid, which was payable on each October 31, January 31, April 30, and 
July 31. Principal amortization began July 31, 2015.

The scheduled principal repayments for Term Loan A may be further reduced or eliminated by mandatory principal 
prepayments. Mandatory principal prepayments are allocated to Term Loan A and Term Loan B on a pro rata basis and 
reduce the remaining scheduled principal installments for each facility. Voluntary principal prepayments may be applied to 
either or both loans at the Company’s direction. The Company made voluntary principal prepayments applied to Term 
Loan B Facility of $4 million and $30 million during fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016, respectively.

Subsequent to the end of fiscal 2017, on March 30, 2017, the Company made a $9 million voluntary principal prepayment, 
which was applied to Term Loan A Facility and is included in the current portion of long-term debt on the consolidated 
balance sheets.

The Credit Facility requires the maintenance of a Senior Secured Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Second Amended and 
Restated Credit Agreement) of not greater than 4.00 to 1.00 until July 31, 2016, and not greater than 3.75 to 1.00 
thereafter, and requires the Company to make an annual prepayment as a portion of its Excess Cash Flow (as defined in 
the Amendment). The Company does not have a mandatory prepayment for the year ended February 3, 2017.

customary events of default, including, among others, defaults based on certain bankruptcy and insolvency events, 
nonpayment, cross-defaults to other debt, breach of specified covenants, ERISA events, material monetary judgments, 
change of control events and the material inaccuracy of the Company’s representations and warranties. If an event of 
default occurs and is continuing under the Credit Facility, the administrative agent shall at the request of the required 
lenders or may with the consent of the required lenders terminate the commitments thereunder, declare amounts 
outstanding (including principal and accrued interest and fees) payable immediately, and enforce any and all rights and 
interests. As of February 3, 2017 the Company was in compliance with the covenants under its Credit Facility.

As of February 3, 2017 and January 29, 2016, the carrying value of the Company’s outstanding debt obligations 
approximated its fair value. The fair value of long-term debt is calculated using Level 2 inputs, based on interest rates 
available for debt with terms and maturities similar to the Company’s Term Loan Facilities.

The Company is party to fixed interest rate swap instruments that are designated and accounted for as cash flow hedges 
to manage risks associated with interest rate fluctuations on a portion of the Company’s floating rate debt. The 
counterparties to all swap agreements are financial institutions. See Note 11 for the effective portion of the unrealized 
change in fair values on cash flow hedges recognized in other comprehensive loss and the amounts reclassified from 
accumulated other comprehensive loss into earnings for the current and comparative periods presented. There was no 
ineffectiveness during any of the periods presented. The Company estimates that it will reclassify $4 million of unrealized 
losses from accumulated other comprehensive loss into earnings in the twelve months following February 3, 2017.

Note 12—Operating Leases:

The Company occupies most of its facilities under operating leases. Most of the leases require the Company to pay 
maintenance and operating expenses (such as taxes, insurance and utilities), and also contain renewal options to extend 
the lease and provisions for periodic rate escalations to reflect inflationary increases. Certain equipment is leased under 
short-term or cancelable operating leases. Rental expense for facilities and equipment was $65 million, $66 million and 
$41 million in fiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Note 13—Business Segment Information:

The Company defines its operating segments based on the way the chief operating decision maker, currently its chief 
executive officer, manages the operations of the Company for purposes of allocating resources and assessing 
performance. The Company is organized as a matrix comprised of five customer facing operating segments supported by 
several service line organizations. The five operating segments are responsible for customer relationships, business 
development and program management, and delivery and execution, while the service line organizations manage our 
workforce and the development of our offerings, solutions and capabilities. The company does not track, and does not 
practicably have the ability to track, revenue or profit by service line. Each of the Company’s five operating segments is 
focused on providing the Company’s comprehensive technical and enterprise IT service offerings to one or more agencies 
of the U.S. federal government. The Company’s operating segments are aggregated into one reportable segment 
because they have similar economic characteristics and meet the other aggregation criteria within the accounting 
standard on segment reporting, including similarities in the nature of the services provided, methods of service delivery, 
customers served and the regulatory environment in which they operate.

Substantially all of the Company’s revenues were generated by, and tangible long-lived assets owned by, entities located 
in the United States. As such, financial information by geographic location is not presented.

In each of fiscal 2017, 2016, and 2015 over 95% of our total revenues were attributable to prime contracts with the U.S. 
government or to subcontracts with other contractors engaged in work for the U.S. government. 

Note 14—Legal Proceedings and Commitments and Contingencies:

Legal Proceedings

The Company is involved in various claims and lawsuits arising in the normal conduct of its business, none of which the 
Company’s management believes, based on current information, is expected to have a material adverse effect on the 
Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Agreements with Former Parent

Former Parent and the Company executed various agreements to provide mechanisms for an orderly transition and to 
govern certain ongoing relationships between the companies following the separation. The agreements include a 
Distribution Agreement, Employee Matters Agreement, Tax Matters Agreement, Master Transition Services Agreement, 
and Master Transitional Contracting Agreement (MTCA). These agreements generally provide that each party is 
responsible for its respective assets, liabilities and obligations, including employee benefits, insurance and tax-related 
assets and liabilities. The MTCA also governs the relationship between former Parent and the Company with regard to the 
treatment of contracts, proposals, and teaming arrangements where both companies are or will be jointly performing work 
after separation. Each of former Parent and the Company indemnify the other party for work performed by it under the 
MTCA.

Contingent losses that were unknown at the time of separation and arise from the operation of the Company’s historical 
business or the former Parent’s historical corporate losses will be shared between the parties to the extent that losses in 
any such category exceed $50 million in the aggregate. If they arise and exceed the $50 million threshold, the Company 
will be responsible for 30% of the former Parent’s incremental contingent losses on corporate claims (and former Parent 
will be responsible for 70% of the Company’s incremental losses on claims relating to operations that exceed $50 million).

Government Investigations, Audits and Reviews

The Company is routinely subject to investigations and reviews relating to compliance with various laws and regulations 
with respect, in particular, to its role as a contractor to federal, state and local government customers and in connection 
with performing services in countries outside of the United States. U.S. government agencies, including the Defense 
Contract Audit Agency (DCAA), the Defense Contract Management Agency and others, routinely audit and review a 
contractor’s performance on government contracts, indirect rates and pricing practices, and compliance with applicable 
contracting and procurement laws, regulations and standards. They also review the adequacy of the contractor’s 
compliance with government standards for its business systems. Adverse findings in these investigations, audits, or 
reviews can lead to criminal, civil or administrative proceedings, and the Company could face disallowance of previously 
billed costs, penalties, fines, compensatory damages, and suspension or debarment from doing business with 
governmental agencies. Due to the Company’s reliance on government contracts, adverse findings could also have a 
material impact on the Company’s business, including its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

The indirect cost audits by the DCAA of the Company’s business remain open for fiscal 2011 and subsequent years. 
Although the company has recorded contract revenues subsequent to and including fiscal 2011 based on an estimate of 
costs that the Company believes will be approved on final audit, the Company does not know the outcome of any ongoing 
or future audits. If future completed audit adjustments exceed the Company’s reserves for potential adjustments, the 
Company’s profitability could be materially adversely affected.

The Company has recorded reserves for estimated net amounts to be refunded to customers for potential adjustments for 
indirect cost audits and compliance with Cost Accounting Standards, which include indemnification obligations owing to 
former Parent for periods prior to the Distribution Date. As of February 3, 2017, the Company has recorded a total liability 
of $38 million for estimated net amounts to be refunded to customers for potential adjustments from audits of contract 
costs, which is presented in other accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. Any additional amounts which 
may be determined to be owed for periods prior to the separation will be allocated to former Parent and the Company in 
proportions determined in accordance with the Distribution Agreement.

Army Brigade Combat Team Modernization Engineering, Manufacturing and Development (BCTM) Program

The BCTM program was terminated for convenience by the Department of Defense (DoD) effective in September 2011. 
From October 2009 through termination, the Company and its prime contractor performed on this program under an 
undefinitized change order with a provision that allowed the Company to receive a provisional fixed fee (contract profit) 
lower than the estimated fixed fee due, pending completion of contract negotiations. The Company recognized revenues 
of approximately $480 million (including provisional fixed fee) from October 2009 through August 2013 under the 
undefinitized change order. The Company expects that acceptance of the final contract termination proposal will occur in 
the second half of fiscal 2018. The Company had an outstanding receivable of approximately $2 million on this contract as 
of February 3, 2017.

Letters of Credit and Surety Bonds

The Company has outstanding obligations relating to letters of credit of $9 million as of February 3, 2017, principally 
related to guarantees on insurance policies. The Company also has outstanding obligations relating to surety bonds in the 
amount of $18 million, principally related to performance and payment bonds on the Company’s contracts. The majority of 
the surety bonds outstanding were initially obtained by former Parent and the Company is required to satisfy these 
obligations under the terms of the Distribution Agreement.

SAIC FISCAL YEAR 2017 ANNUAL REPORT 

Dear Fellow 
Stockholders,

We are proud of our accomplishments in fiscal year 2017. 
Although we missed our revenue target for the year, 
 SAIC delivered market-leading shareholder returns  
of 98 percent, maintained our high win rate versus 
competitors, and ended the year with the strongest sales 
momentum in our history.

Powered by our differentiated matrix operating model,  
a talented workforce, and strong program performance across 
the portfolio, we further distinguished SAIC as an innovative, 
reliable and cost-effective technology integrator, both to our 
customers in the U.S. military services and increasingly  
to other federal agencies. We spent much of the year refining 
our long-term strategy to build on the successes of our first 
three years as an independent company.
