Key Terms

firm-fixed-price contract financial

A firm-fixed-price contract is an agreement where a buyer and a seller agree on one nonchanging price for goods or services, so the seller is paid that amount regardless of its actual costs. Think of hiring a contractor to build a deck for a set fee: the contractor bears the risk if materials or labor cost more than expected, while the buyer gets price certainty. For investors, these contracts mean predictable revenue but higher exposure of the seller’s profit margin to cost overruns and efficiency, affecting earnings stability and cash flow forecasts.

Deep Submergence System—Scope of Certification (DSS) technical

Deep submergence system—scope of certification (DSS) is the formal description of what a deep-sea submersible or underwater system is approved to do, specifying limits such as maximum operating depth, crew or payload capacity, safety systems, and permitted mission types. For investors, DSS matters because it governs where and how the asset can legally operate, shapes safety and insurance costs, and therefore directly affects potential revenue and operational risk—similar to a vehicle’s license and road restrictions.
