See Non-GAAP Financial Measures at the end of this press release for more information and a reconciliation of our selected reported results to these non-GAAP measures. |
Revenues for the quarter were $3.61 billion, up 4% compared to the third quarter of 2021; the largest contributors were continued growth of the Navy Next Generation Enterprise Network Recompete (NGEN-R) Service Management, Integration and Transport (SMIT) contract; ramp-up of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Advanced Enterprise Global Information Technology Solutions (AEGIS) contract; and increased deployments on the Defense Healthcare Management System Modernization (DHMSM) program.
Net income was $164 million and diluted EPS was $1.17. Net income and diluted EPS were down 21% and 18% year-over-year, respectively. Net income and diluted EPS include a $16 million unrealized loss associated with the foreign currency forward contract entered into in order to hedge the preliminary purchase price for Cobham Aviation Services Australia (“Cobham”) in Australian dollars. In addition, net interest expense increased to $50 million from $47 million in the third quarter of 2021. Weighted average diluted shares for the quarter were 138 million compared to 143 million in the prior year quarter, which benefited from the Accelerated Share Repurchase (ASR) agreement implemented in the first quarter of 2022.
Adjusted EBITDA was $372 million for the third quarter, down 8% year-over-year, and adjusted EBITDA margin decreased from 11.6% to 10.3% over the same period. Profitability in the year-ago quarter was elevated due to temporarily increased workload and decreased indirect expenses as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic as well as an elevated level of write-ups on certain contracts. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin increased $6 million and 10 basis points, respectively, compared to the second quarter of 2022. Non-GAAP net income was $221 million for the third quarter, down 15% year-over-year, and non-GAAP diluted EPS for the quarter was $1.59, down 12% year-over-year.
Cash Flow Summary
In the third quarter net cash provided by operating activities was $748 million, or 462% of net income attributable to Leidos shareholders. After adjusting for payments for property, equipment and software, free cash flow was $721 million, resulting in a free cash flow conversion ratio of 329%. In addition, Leidos used $26 million for investing activities and $217 million for financing activities.
Leidos returned $49 million to shareholders in the third quarter as part of its regular quarterly cash dividend program. As of September 30, 2022, Leidos had $807 million in cash and cash equivalents and $5.0 billion of debt.
On October 30, 2022, Leidos completed the acquisition of Cobham Special Mission, which provides airborne border surveillance and search and rescue services to the Australian Federal Government. Purchase consideration was $305 million Australian dollars, subject to working capital adjustments. At the signing of the definitive agreement, Leidos entered into a forward contract for $215 million to offset foreign currency fluctuations of the full purchase consideration. Based on the exchange rate at the close, the translated purchase price was $196 million. We realized a loss of $18 million associated with the foreign exchange forward contract.
On October 28, 2022, the Leidos Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.36 per share to be paid on December 30, 2022, to stockholders of record at the close of business on December 15, 2022.
New Business Awards
Net bookings totaled $4.1 billion in the quarter, representing a book-to-bill ratio of 1.1. As a result, backlog at the end of the quarter was $35.0 billion, of which $7.4 billion was funded. Notable awards in the quarter include:
Sentinel. Leidos was awarded a prime task order by the Department of Defense to enhance technological innovation with a focus on rapid insertion of technologies across the mission spectrum for multiple services, and integrating new technology with existing and legacy systems for increased effectiveness. Leidos will support the government with rapid technology insertion to enhance Command, Control, Computers, Communications, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C5ISR) missions at a global scale. This award enables Leidos to expand its extensive C5ISR portfolio as well as deliver a critical capability towards improved warfighter support. The contract has a total value of $1.5 billion dollars and includes a one-year base period of performance with four one-year options.
U.S. Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) Medium Unmanned Undersea Vehicle (MUUV). Leidos was selected by the NAVSEA to design and build a MUUV to support intelligence preparation of the operational environment by providing submarine-based autonomous oceanographic sensing and data collection for the Navy. The MUUV will also provide surface-launched and recovered mine countermeasures. The single award, cost-plus-fixed-fee contract holds an approximate value of $358 million if all options are exercised.
Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) Defense Enclave Services (DES) Task Order. DISA awarded Leidos a task order contract with a total estimated value of $138 million dollars with a five year period of performance. Through the DES contract, Leidos will consolidate enterprise IT services and provide standardized, responsive and cost-effective solutions for more than 370,000 users spanning 22 Department of Defense (DoD) agencies and field activities with over 500 sites both in the U.S. and abroad. This first task order will lay the framework and begin to consolidate, integrate and optimize five agencies on a common network architecture through digital modernization and transformation. The work will focus on mission value and user experience, while improving cybersecurity, network availability and reliability for Fourth Estate agencies.

For information regarding adjusted EBITDA margin and non-GAAP diluted EPS, see the related explanations and reconciliations to GAAP measures included elsewhere in this release.
Leidos does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted EBITDA margins or non-GAAP diluted EPS to net income due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation. Because certain deductions for non-GAAP exclusions used to calculate projected net income may vary significantly based on actual events, Leidos is not able to forecast on a GAAP basis with reasonable certainty all deductions needed in order to provide a GAAP calculation of projected net income at this time. The amounts of these deductions may be material and, therefore, could result in projected net income and diluted EPS being materially less than what may be implied by projected adjusted EBITDA margins and non-GAAP diluted EPS.

Defense Solutions
Defense Solutions revenues of $2,075 million increased by 3% compared to the prior year quarter. The primary drivers of revenue growth were the ramp up of Navy NGEN-R SMIT and various force protection programs, which offset the wind down of certain programs supporting operations in Afghanistan and the surrounding region and adverse foreign exchange impacts. For the quarter Defense Solutions operating income margin decreased to 6.6% from 7.0% in the prior year quarter and non-GAAP operating income margin was 8.1% compared to 8.8% in the prior year quarter. The decline in segment profitability was attributable to program mix as well as investments in prototype development contracts in the current quarter.
Civil
Civil revenues of $874 million increased by 10% compared to the prior year quarter. The primary driver of revenue growth was the ramp up of the NASA AEGIS program. In addition, the segment delivered software upgrades and increased maintenance activity within its security products business and additional engineering support to commercial energy companies, which increased both revenue and profitability. Civil operating income margin for the quarter increased to 9.0% from 7.3% in the prior year quarter. Non-GAAP operating income margin was 11.0%, compared to 9.6% in the prior year quarter.
Health
Health revenues of $659 million decreased by 3% compared to the prior year quarter. Increased backlog of disability exams caused by COVID-19 in the third quarter of 2021 and increased competition in the current quarter more than offset increased deployments on the DHMSM program. With the return to more normal volume of disability exams, operating income margin declined from 19.1% to 13.8% and non-GAAP operating income margin decreased from 20.7% to 15.0% compared to the prior year quarter.
LEIDOS HOLDINGS, INC.UNAUDITED BACKLOG BY REPORTABLE SEGMENT(in millions)
Backlog represents the estimated amount of future revenues to be recognized under negotiated contracts. Backlog value is based on management’s estimates about volume of services, availability of customer funding and other factors, and excludes contracts that are under protest. Estimated backlog comprises both funded and negotiated unfunded backlog. Backlog estimates are subject to change and may be affected by several factors, including modifications of contracts, non-exercise of options and foreign currency movements.
Funded backlog for contracts with the U.S. government represents the value on contracts for which funding is appropriated less revenues previously recognized on these contracts. Funded backlog for contracts with non-U.S. government entities and commercial customers represents the estimated value on contracts, which may cover multiple future years, under which Leidos is obligated to perform, less revenue previously recognized on the contracts.
Negotiated unfunded backlog represents estimated amounts of revenue to be earned in the future from contracts for which funding has not been appropriated and unexercised priced contract options. Negotiated unfunded backlog does not include unexercised option periods and future potential task orders expected to be awarded under IDIQ, General Services Administration Schedule or other master agreement contract vehicles, with the exception of certain IDIQ contracts where task orders are not competitively awarded or separately priced but instead are used as a funding mechanism, and where there is a basis for estimating future revenues and funding on future anticipated task orders.
The estimated value of backlog as of the dates presented was as follows:

The increase in backlog includes $43 million of backlog acquired through business combinations in our Defense Solutions reportable segment. Total backlog at September 30, 2022, included a negative impact of $363 million when compared to total backlog at October 1, 2021, primarily due to the exchange rate movements in the British pound and Australian dollar when compared to the U.S. dollar.
LEIDOS HOLDINGS, INC.UNAUDITED NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Leidos uses and refers to organic growth, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, non-GAAP diluted EPS, free cash flow and free cash flow conversion, which are not measures of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. and, accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the comparable GAAP measures and should be read in conjunction with Leidos’s consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Management believes that these non-GAAP measures provide another representation of the results of operations and financial condition, including its ability to comply with financial covenants. These non-GAAP measures are frequently used by financial analysts covering Leidos and its peers. The computation of non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, thus limiting their use for comparability.
Organic growth captures the revenue growth that is inherent in the underlying business excluding the impact of acquisitions made within the prior year; it is computed as current revenues excluding acquisition revenues within the last 12 months divided by previous year revenues excluding revenues from entities divested within the prior year.
Non-GAAP operating income is computed by excluding the following discrete items from operating income:
Acquisition, integration and restructuring costs – Represents acquisition, integration, lease termination and severance costs related to acquisitions.
Amortization of acquired intangible assets – Represents the amortization of the fair value of the acquired intangible assets.
Derivative loss – Represents the fair value loss associated with the foreign currency forward contract to hedge the preliminary purchase price for the Cobham acquisition in Australian dollars.
Asset impairment charges – Represents impairments of long-lived intangible assets.
Non-GAAP operating margin is computed by dividing non-GAAP operating income by revenues.
Adjusted EBITDA is computed by excluding the following items from income before income taxes: (i) discrete items as identified above; (ii) interest expense; (iii) interest income; (iv) depreciation expense; and (v) amortization of internally developed intangible assets.
Adjusted EBITDA margin is computed by dividing adjusted EBITDA by revenues.
Non-GAAP net income is computed by excluding the discrete items listed under non-GAAP operating income and their related tax impacts.
Non-GAAP diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income attributable to Leidos common stockholders, adjusted for the discrete items as identified above and the related tax impacts, by the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding.
Free cash flow is computed by deducting expenditures for property, equipment and software from net cash provided by operating activities.
Free cash flow conversion is computed by dividing free cash flow by non-GAAP net income attributable to Leidos common stockholders; operating cash flow conversion is computed by dividing net cash provided by operating activities by net income attributable to Leidos shareholders.
