Rhea-AI Filing Summary
KBR’s Q2-25 results show modest growth in core operations but are weighed down by a discontinued business. Revenue rose 5.7% YoY to $1.95 billion, driven by Mission Technology Solutions (MTS +7% to $1.41 billion) and a smaller gain in Sustainable Technology Solutions (STS +2% to $540 million). Gross profit increased 7% to $290 million and the margin edged up to 14.9% (14.6% LY). Operating income climbed 8% to $194 million while equity income from JVs jumped 28% to $51 million. Interest expense grew 28% to $41 million, keeping income from continuing ops flat at $106 million.
Discontinued operations (HomeSafe) posted a $48 million loss, cutting net income attributable to KBR to $73 million (-31% YoY). Diluted EPS fell to $0.56 from $0.79; EPS from continuing ops was unchanged at $0.81.
Cash & leverage: Operating cash flow improved to $308 million (+20% YoY), funding $204 million of buybacks and $43 million in dividends. Cash ended at $403 million versus $342 million at FY-24; total debt is $2.61 billion (net debt ≈ $2.21 billion).
Balance-sheet changes: goodwill up $63 million from acquisitions (LinQuest, Infrastar), AOCL improved $78 million on FX and pension gains. Share count fell 3% YoY to 128.8 million.
Outlook items: backlog of $13.1 billion (36% to convert within 12 months) and a $50 million favorable estimate change on an LNG project supported margins. Management realigned segments; Government Solutions is now MTS. New accounting standards (ASU 2023-09, 2024-03) expected to impact disclosures only.
I risultati del Q2-25 di KBR mostrano una crescita modesta nelle operazioni principali, ma sono influenzati negativamente da un'attività cessata. Il fatturato è aumentato del 5,7% su base annua, raggiungendo 1,95 miliardi di dollari, trainato da Mission Technology Solutions (MTS +7% a 1,41 miliardi) e da un incremento più contenuto in Sustainable Technology Solutions (STS +2% a 540 milioni). Il profitto lordo è cresciuto del 7% a 290 milioni di dollari e il margine è salito al 14,9% (14,6% l'anno precedente). Il reddito operativo è aumentato dell'8% a 194 milioni, mentre il reddito da partecipazioni in joint venture è cresciuto del 28% a 51 milioni. Le spese per interessi sono aumentate del 28% a 41 milioni, mantenendo stabile il reddito dalle operazioni continuative a 106 milioni.
Le operazioni cessate (HomeSafe) hanno registrato una perdita di 48 milioni, riducendo l'utile netto attribuibile a KBR a 73 milioni (-31% YoY). L'EPS diluito è sceso a 0,56 da 0,79; l'EPS dalle operazioni continuative è rimasto invariato a 0,81.
Liquidità e leva finanziaria: Il flusso di cassa operativo è migliorato a 308 milioni (+20% YoY), finanziando riacquisti per 204 milioni e dividendi per 43 milioni. La liquidità finale è stata di 403 milioni rispetto ai 342 milioni di fine FY-24; il debito totale è di 2,61 miliardi (debito netto circa 2,21 miliardi).
Variazioni di bilancio: l'avviamento è aumentato di 63 milioni per acquisizioni (LinQuest, Infrastar), AOCL è migliorato di 78 milioni grazie a guadagni su cambio e pensioni. Il numero di azioni è diminuito del 3% su base annua a 128,8 milioni.
Prospettive: il portafoglio ordini è di 13,1 miliardi (36% convertibile entro 12 mesi) e una variazione favorevole di 50 milioni nelle stime di un progetto LNG ha supportato i margini. La direzione ha riallineato i segmenti; Government Solutions ora è MTS. I nuovi standard contabili (ASU 2023-09, 2024-03) impatteranno solo le divulgazioni.
Los resultados del Q2-25 de KBR muestran un crecimiento modesto en las operaciones principales, pero se ven afectados por un negocio descontinuado. Los ingresos aumentaron un 5,7% interanual hasta 1,95 mil millones de dólares, impulsados por Mission Technology Solutions (MTS +7% a 1,41 mil millones) y un aumento menor en Sustainable Technology Solutions (STS +2% a 540 millones). La ganancia bruta creció un 7% hasta 290 millones y el margen subió a 14,9% (14,6% el año pasado). El ingreso operativo aumentó un 8% hasta 194 millones, mientras que los ingresos por participaciones en joint ventures se incrementaron un 28% hasta 51 millones. Los gastos por intereses crecieron un 28% hasta 41 millones, manteniendo el ingreso de operaciones continuas estable en 106 millones.
Las operaciones descontinuadas (HomeSafe) registraron una pérdida de 48 millones, reduciendo el ingreso neto atribuible a KBR a 73 millones (-31% interanual). Las ganancias por acción diluidas cayeron a 0,56 desde 0,79; las ganancias por acción de operaciones continuas se mantuvieron en 0,81.
Liquidez y apalancamiento: El flujo de caja operativo mejoró a 308 millones (+20% interanual), financiando recompras por 204 millones y dividendos por 43 millones. El efectivo finalizó en 403 millones frente a 342 millones al cierre del FY-24; la deuda total es de 2,61 mil millones (deuda neta aprox. 2,21 mil millones).
Cambios en el balance: la plusvalía aumentó 63 millones por adquisiciones (LinQuest, Infrastar), AOCL mejoró 78 millones por ganancias en FX y pensiones. El número de acciones bajó un 3% interanual a 128,8 millones.
Perspectivas: la cartera de pedidos es de 13,1 mil millones (36% a convertir en 12 meses) y un cambio favorable de 50 millones en estimaciones de un proyecto de LNG apoyó los márgenes. La dirección realineó los segmentos; Government Solutions ahora es MTS. Se esperan que las nuevas normas contables (ASU 2023-09, 2024-03) impacten solo en las divulgaciones.
KBR의 2025년 2분기 실적은 핵심 사업에서 소폭 성장했으나 중단된 사업으로 인해 부담을 안고 있습니다. 매출은 전년 대비 5.7% 증가한 19.5억 달러로, Mission Technology Solutions(MTS +7% 14.1억 달러)와 Sustainable Technology Solutions(STS +2% 5.4억 달러)의 소폭 증가에 힘입었습니다. 총이익은 7% 증가한 2.9억 달러, 마진은 14.9%(전년 14.6%)로 소폭 상승했습니다. 영업이익은 8% 증가한 1.94억 달러, 합작투자 지분법 이익은 28% 증가한 5,100만 달러를 기록했습니다. 이자 비용은 28% 증가한 4,100만 달러로 계속 영업이익은 1.06억 달러로 유지되었습니다.

현금 및 부채 비율: 영업현금흐름은 3.08억 달러로 20% 증가해 2.04억 달러의 자사주 매입과 4,300만 달러의 배당금을 지급했습니다. 현금 잔액은 2024 회계연도 말 3.42억 달러에서 4.03억 달러로 증가했으며, 총 부채는 26.1억 달러(순부채 약 22.1억 달러)입니다.
대차대조표 변화: 인수(LinQuest, Infrastar)로 인해 영업권이 6,300만 달러 증가했고, 외환 및 연금 이익으로 AOCL가 7,800만 달러 개선되었습니다. 주식 수는 전년 대비 3% 감소한 1억 2,880만 주입니다.
전망 사항: 수주잔고는 131억 달러이며(36%는 12개월 내에 매출 전환 예상), LNG 프로젝트에 대한 5,000만 달러의 긍정적 추정 변경이 마진을 지원했습니다. 경영진은 사업 부문을 재조정했으며, Government Solutions는 이제 MTS에 포함됩니다. 새로운 회계 기준(ASU 2023-09, 2024-03)은 공시 영향만 예상됩니다.

KBRs Ergebnisse für das zweite Quartal 2025 zeigen ein moderates Wachstum im Kerngeschäft, werden jedoch durch ein eingestelltes Geschäft belastet. Der Umsatz stieg im Jahresvergleich um 5,7 % auf 1,95 Milliarden US-Dollar, angetrieben von Mission Technology Solutions (MTS +7 % auf 1,41 Milliarden) und einem kleineren Anstieg bei Sustainable Technology Solutions (STS +2 % auf 540 Millionen). Der Bruttogewinn stieg um 7 % auf 290 Millionen, die Marge erhöhte sich leicht auf 14,9 % (14,6 % im Vorjahr). Das Betriebsergebnis kletterte um 8 % auf 194 Millionen, während der Anteilsgewinn aus Joint Ventures um 28 % auf 51 Millionen zunahm. Die Zinsaufwendungen stiegen um 28 % auf 41 Millionen, wodurch das Ergebnis aus fortgeführten Geschäften mit 106 Millionen stabil blieb.
Die eingestellten Geschäftsbereiche (HomeSafe) verzeichneten einen Verlust von 48 Millionen, wodurch der dem Unternehmen zurechenbare Nettogewinn auf 73 Millionen (-31 % YoY) sank. Das verwässerte Ergebnis je Aktie fiel von 0,79 auf 0,56; das Ergebnis je Aktie aus fortgeführten Geschäften blieb unverändert bei 0,81.
Barmittel & Verschuldung: Der operative Cashflow verbesserte sich auf 308 Millionen (+20 % YoY) und finanzierte Aktienrückkäufe in Höhe von 204 Millionen sowie Dividenden von 43 Millionen. Der Kassenbestand belief sich auf 403 Millionen gegenüber 342 Millionen zum Geschäftsjahresende 2024; die Gesamtverschuldung beträgt 2,61 Milliarden (Nettoverbindlichkeiten ca. 2,21 Milliarden).
Bilanzveränderungen: Der Firmenwert stieg um 63 Millionen durch Übernahmen (LinQuest, Infrastar), AOCL verbesserte sich um 78 Millionen durch Wechselkurs- und Pensionsgewinne. Die Anzahl der Aktien sank im Jahresvergleich um 3 % auf 128,8 Millionen.
Ausblick: Der Auftragsbestand beträgt 13,1 Milliarden (36 % sollen innerhalb von 12 Monaten umgesetzt werden) und eine günstige Schätzungsänderung von 50 Millionen bei einem LNG-Projekt unterstützte die Margen. Das Management hat die Segmente neu ausgerichtet; Government Solutions ist jetzt MTS. Neue Rechnungslegungsstandards (ASU 2023-09, 2024-03) werden voraussichtlich nur die Offenlegung betreffen.
Positive
- Revenue up 5.7% YoY, with both MTS and STS growing.
- Operating income rose 8% to $194 million; gross margin expanded 30 bps.
- Operating cash flow increased 20% to $308 million, boosting cash to $403 million.
- $50 million favorable estimate on LNG project signals project execution improvement.
- Backlog $13.1 billion provides multi-year revenue visibility.
Negative
- Diluted EPS fell 29% YoY to $0.56 due to discontinued operations loss.
- Interest expense up 28%, reflecting higher debt and rates.
- HomeSafe disposal posted $48 million loss, highlighting contract risk with DoD.
- Net debt ~5× cash; leverage sensitive to SOFR/SONIA movements.
- $204 million in share buybacks reduced equity cushion amid high leverage.
Insights
TL;DR - Core ops solid; discontinuance masks strength, cash generation strong.
MTS and STS both delivered top-line growth, lifting operating income 8%. Flat continuing-ops EPS and higher interest temper enthusiasm, yet 20% YoY OCF growth and $403 million cash provide capital flexibility. Share count down 3% enhances per-share metrics. HomeSafe exit is a one-off drag; without it, diluted EPS would have risen modestly. Leverage (≈3.2× EBITDA) remains manageable given consistent cash generation. Overall, results mildly positive for valuation.
TL;DR - Discontinued loss, higher interest and litigation keep risk profile neutral.
HomeSafe termination introduces execution & reputational risk; $48 million Q2 loss plus $69 million related liabilities removed from BS but sets precedent for government contract volatility. Interest expense up 28% amid $2.6 billion debt; SOFR-linked facilities expose KBR to further rate hikes. Share buybacks shrink equity buffer (treasury stock now $1.7 billion). Though liquidity healthy, leverage covenant headroom narrows as buybacks continue. No new guidance given, leaving uncertainty. Impact judged neutral pending clarity on discontinued operations’ ultimate cost.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain statements that are, or may be deemed to be, "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act, as amended. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides safe harbor provisions for forward-looking information. Some of the statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact are, or may be deemed to be, forward-looking statements. The words "believe," "may," "estimate," "continue," "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "expect" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include information concerning our possible or assumed future financial performance and results of operations.
We have based these statements on our assumptions and analyses in light of our experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors we believe are appropriate in the circumstances. Forward-looking statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect expected results, and actual future results could differ materially from those described in such statements. While it is not possible to identify all factors, factors that could cause actual future results to differ materially include the risks and uncertainties disclosed in our latest Form 10-K and any subsequent Forms 10-Q and 8-K.
Many of these factors are beyond our ability to control or predict. Any of these factors, or a combination of these factors, could materially and adversely affect our future financial condition or results of operations and the ultimate accuracy of the forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of our future performance, and our actual results and future developments may differ materially and adversely from those projected in the forward-looking statements. We caution against putting undue reliance on forward-looking statements or projecting any future results based on such statements or on present or prior earnings levels. In addition, each forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date of the particular statement, and we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared using generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all information or notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements and should be read together with our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The condensed consolidated financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position as of July 4, 2025, the results of our operations for the three and six months ended July 4, 2025 and June 28, 2024, respectively, and our cash flows for the six months ended July 4, 2025 and June 28, 2024, respectively. Our significant accounting policies are detailed in "Note 1. Significant Accounting Policies" of our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain amounts in prior periods have been reclassified to conform with current period presentation. The Company's fiscal year ends on the Friday closest to December 31. The three months ended July 4, 2025 and June 28, 2024 each contained 91 days, and the six months ended July 4, 2025 and June 28, 2024 each contained 182 days.
As discussed further in Note 17 “Discontinued Operations”, HomeSafe Alliance ("HomeSafe") informed us on June 18, 2025, that U.S. Transportation Command unexpectedly terminated HomeSafe’s role in the Global Household Goods Contract. We disposed of HomeSafe in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 and determined that this disposal met the requirements to be reported as discontinued operations. As such, the results of HomeSafe are presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and notes for all periods presented.
We have evaluated all events and transactions occurring after the balance sheet date but before the condensed consolidated financial statements were issued and have included the appropriate disclosures.
Principles of Consolidation
New accounting pronouncements requiring implementation in future periods are discussed below.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The ASU requires that an entity disclose specific categories in the effective tax rate reconciliation as well as provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. Further, the ASU requires certain disclosures of state versus federal income tax expense and taxes paid. The amendments in this ASU are required to be adopted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued. We expect this ASU to only affect our disclosures with no impacts to our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

Note 2. Business Segment Information
We provide a wide range of professional services, and the management of our business is heavily focused on major projects or programs within each of our reportable segments. At any given time, government programs and joint ventures
represent a substantial part of our operations. To streamline and optimize our processes, we realigned our segments effective as of fiscal 2025. As part of this realignment, our Government Solutions reportable segment has been renamed Mission Technology Solutions while Sustainable Technology Solutions has retained its name. The international business contained within Government Solutions has been integrated into both Mission Technology Solutions and Sustainable Technology Solutions. All information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is presented in accordance with the realigned reportable segments and all prior period information was recast to reflect the realigned reportable segments. We are organized into two core business segments, Mission Technology Solutions and Sustainable Technology Solutions and one non-core business segment as described below:
Mission Technology Solutions. Our Mission Technology Solutions business segment provides full life-cycle support solutions to defense, intelligence, space, aviation and other programs and missions for military and other government agencies primarily in the U.S., U.K. and Australia. KBR's full-spectrum solutions span research and development, advanced prototyping, acquisition support, systems engineering, C5ISR, cyber analytics, space domain awareness, test and evaluation, data analytics and integration, systems integration and program management, global supply chain management, operations readiness and support and professional advisory services across the defense, energy security and transition and critical infrastructure sectors. Included in Mission Technology Solutions is the business of LinQuest Corporation ("LinQuest"), an engineering, data analytics and digital integration company acquired on August 30, 2024 and Infrastar Limited acquired on May 17, 2025. See Note 16 "Acquisitions" to our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information on this acquisition. Additionally, the disposal of HomeSafe is reported as discontinued operations and the operations are excluded from Mission Technology Solutions results reflected within our tables below. See Note 17 “Discontinued Operations” for additional information regarding the HomeSafe disposal.
Sustainable Technology Solutions. Our Sustainable Technology Solutions business segment is anchored by our portfolio of over 85 innovative, proprietary, sustainability-focused process technologies that reduce emissions, increase efficiency and/or accelerate and enable energy transition across the industrial base in four primary verticals: ammonia/syngas, chemical/petrochemicals, clean refining and circular process/circular economy solutions. STS also provides highly synergistic services including advisory and consulting focused on energy security, broad-based emission solutions, high-end engineering, infrastructure, design and program management centered around decarbonization, energy efficiency, environmental impact and asset optimization, as well as our digitally-enabled operating and monitoring solutions. Through early planning and scope definition, advanced technologies and facility life-cycle optimization, our STS business segment works closely with customers to provide what we believe is the optimal approach to maximize their return on investment.
Corporate. Our non-core segment includes corporate expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses not allocated to the business segments above.
In its operation of our business, our management, including our chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), evaluates the performance of our business segments based on operating income. Our CODM, who is our chief executive officer, utilizes operating income to evaluate segment results and is a factor considered in determining capital allocation among the segments. Our CODM analyzes selected segment balance sheet information for our business segments and for the Company as a whole. Information on each of our business segments and reconciliation to Net income (loss) attributable to KBR from continuing operations within our condensed consolidated statements of operations is presented in the tables below.

Performance Obligations and Contract Liabilities
Changes in estimates are recognized on a cumulative catch-up basis in the current period associated with performance obligations satisfied in a prior period due to the release of a constrained milestone, modification in contract price or scope or a change in the likelihood of a contingency or claim being resolved. We recognized revenue from performance obligations
16
satisfied in previous periods for such matters of $26 million and $23 million for the three months ended July 4, 2025 and June 28, 2024, respectively, and $34 million and $31 million for the six months ended July 4, 2025 and June 28, 2024, respectively.
On July 4, 2025, we had $13.1 billion of transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations. We expect to recognize approximately 36 % of our remaining performance obligations as revenue within one year , 39 % in years two through five and 25 % thereafter. Revenue associated with our remaining performance obligations to be recognized beyond one year includes performance obligations primarily related to the Aspire Defence project, which has contract terms extending through 2041. Remaining performance obligations do not include variable consideration that was determined to be constrained as of July 4, 2025.
We recognized revenue of $214 million and $225 million for the six months ended July 4, 2025 and June 28, 2024, respectively, which was previously included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of each period.
Changes in Project-related Estimates
There are many factors that may affect the accuracy of our cost estimates and ultimately our future profitability. These include, but are not limited to, the availability and costs of resources (such as labor, materials and equipment), productivity, weather and ongoing resolution of commercial and legal matters, including any new or ongoing disputes with our business partners and others in our supply chain. We recognize revisions of revenues, costs and equity in earnings in the period in which the revisions are known. This may result in the recognition of costs before the recognition of related revenue recovery, if any. During the three and six months ended July 4, 2025 we recognized a favorable change in operating income of $50 million and $65 million, respectively, as a result of changes in estimates on an LNG project.

Note 4. Cash and Cash Equivalents
We consider all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents include cash balances held by our wholly-owned subsidiaries as well as cash held by joint ventures that we consolidate. Joint venture and the Aspire project cash balances are limited to specific project activities and are not available for other projects, new acquisitions and joint ventures, general cash needs or distribution to us without approval of the Board of Directors of the respective entities. The cash and cash equivalents held in consolidated joint ventures and the Aspire project are expected to be used for their respective project costs and distributions of earnings.

Note 6. Equity Method Investments and Variable Interest Entities
We conduct some of our operations through joint ventures, which operate through partnerships, corporations and undivided interests and other business forms and are principally accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Additionally, the majority of our joint ventures are VIEs. The following table presents a rollforward of our equity in and advances to unconsolidated affiliates:

As such, the distributions declared during the current quarter may not agree to the distributions of earnings from unconsolidated affiliates on our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. During the year ended January 3, 2025, a joint venture within our STS segment declared a distribution of earnings of $39 million that was not received by KBR until the six months ended July 4, 2025.
(b)During the year ended January 3, 2025, we received a return of investment from JKC of approximately $36 million related to our proportionate share of a tax refund.
Related Party Transactions
We often provide engineering, construction management and other subcontractor services to our unconsolidated joint ventures, and our revenues include amounts related to these services. For the three and six months ended July 4, 2025, our revenues included $190 million and $363 million, respectively, and for the three and six months ended June 28, 2024, our revenues included $171 million and $344 million, respectively, related to the services we provided primarily to the Aspire Defence Limited joint venture within our MTS business segment and a joint venture within our STS business segment.

Senior Credit Facility
Our existing Credit Agreement, dated as of April 25, 2018, as amended ("Credit Agreement"), consists of a $1 billion revolving credit facility (the "Revolver"), a Term Loan A ("Term Loan A") with debt tranches denominated in U.S. dollars and British pound sterling and a Term Loan B ("Term Loan B" and together with the Revolver and Term Loan A, the "Senior Credit Facility").
We had cash borrowings of $373 million on our Revolver that occurred during the six months ended July 4, 2025. We had cash repayments of $323 million on our Revolver, $13 million on our Term Loan A and $5 million on our Term Loan B that occurred during the six months ended July 4, 2025. The interest rates with respect to the Revolver, Term Loan A and Term Loan B are based on, at our option, the applicable adjusted reference rate plus an additional margin or base rate plus additional margin. Additionally, there is a commitment fee applicable to available amounts under the Revolver.
20
The applicable interest rate per annum of the Term B loan facility is term SOFR plus 2.00 % (or base rate plus 1.00 %). The details of the applicable margins and commitment fees under the Revolver, Term Loan A-1 and Term Loan A-3 are based on our consolidated net leverage ratio as follows:
Revolver, Term Loan A-1 and Term Loan A-3 | ||||||||||||||||||||

| Less than 1.25 to 1.00 | % | % | % | |||||||||||||||||
(a)The reference rate for Term Loan A-2 is SOFR.
Both Term Loan A-1 and Term Loan A-3 provide for quarterly principal payments of 0.625 1.25 0.625 % of the aggregate principal amount and Term Loan B provides for quarterly principal payments of $3 million. Each of Term Loan A-1, Term Loan A-3 and the Revolver matures in February 2029, Term Loan A-2 matures in August 2027 and Term Loan B matures in January 2031.
The Senior Credit Facility contains financial covenants providing for a maximum consolidated net leverage ratio and a consolidated interest coverage ratio (as such terms are defined in the Senior Credit Facility). Our consolidated net leverage ratio as of the last day of any fiscal quarter may not exceed 4.25 to 1 in 2023, reducing to 4.00 to 1 in 2024 and thereafter. Our consolidated interest coverage ratio may not be less than 3.00 to 1 as of the last day of any fiscal quarter. As of July 4, 2025, we were in compliance with our financial covenants under our Senior Credit Facility.
Senior Notes
We have $250 million aggregate principal amount of 4.750 % Senior Notes due 2028 (the "Senior Notes") pursuant to an indenture among us, the guarantors party thereto and Citibank, N.A., as trustee. The Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by each of our existing and future domestic subsidiaries that guarantee our obligations under the Senior Credit Facility and certain other indebtedness. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 30 and September 30 of each year and the principal is due on September 30, 2028.
We have the ability to redeem all or part of the Senior Notes at our option, at the redemption prices set forth in the Senior Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to (but not including) the redemption date. If we undergo a change of control, we may be required to make an offer to holders of the Senior Notes to repurchase all of the Senior Notes at a purchase price equal to 101 % of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

Note 9. Income Taxes
The effective tax rate was approximately 27
On July 4, 2025, the reconciliation bill H.R. 1 was enacted into law in the U.S. H.R.1 includes a broad range of tax reform provisions, including the elective deduction for domestic Research and Development (R&D), a reinstatement of elective 100% first-year bonus depreciation and changes to the interest limitation calculation under 163(j), among other provisions. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the H.R. 1 tax provisions which could affect the Company's effective tax rate and deferred tax assets in 2025 and future periods. A quantitative estimate of the specific financial effects cannot be reasonably determined at this time due to the complexity of the changes in the tax reform and optionality of voluntary elections.
The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of July 4, 2025 and January 3, 2025 was $141 million and $142 million, respectively. The remaining valuation allowance is primarily related to foreign tax credit carryforwards and foreign and state net operating loss carryforwards that, in the judgment of management, do not meet the more likely than not realization threshold. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent on the generation of future taxable income, in the appropriate character and source, during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible or within the remaining carryforward period. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities (including the impact of available carryback and carryforward periods), projected future taxable income and tax-planning strategies in making this assessment.
The utilization of the unreserved foreign tax credit carryforwards is based on our ability to generate income from foreign sources of approximately $162 million prior to their expiration. The utilization of other net deferred tax assets, excluding those associated with indefinite-lived intangible assets, is based on our ability to generate U.S. forecasted taxable income of approximately $971 million. Changes in our forecasted taxable income, in the appropriate character and source, as well as jurisdiction, could affect the ultimate realization of deferred tax assets.
Note 10. Commitments and Contingencies
We are a party to litigation and other proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. These types of matters could result in fines, penalties, cost reimbursements or contributions, compensatory or treble damages or non-monetary sanctions or relief. We believe the probability is remote that the outcome of any individual matter, including the matters described below, will have a material adverse effect on the corporation as a whole, notwithstanding that the unfavorable resolution of any matter may have a material effect on our net earnings and cash flows in any particular reporting period. Among the factors that we consider in this assessment are the nature of existing legal proceedings and claims, the asserted or possible damages or loss contingency (if estimable), the progress of the case, existing law and precedent, the opinions or views of legal counsel and other advisers, our experience in similar cases and the experience of other companies, the facts available to us at the time of assessment and how we intend to respond to the proceeding or claim. Our assessment of these factors may change over time as individual proceedings or claims progress.

Note 11. U.S. Government Matters
We provide services to various U.S. governmental agencies, including the U.S. DoD, NASA, Department of State and other agencies within the Intelligence Community. The negotiation, administration and settlement of our contracts are subject to audit by the DCAA. The DCAA serves in an advisory role to the DCMA, which is responsible for the administration of the majority of our contracts. The scope of these audits includes, among other things, the validity of direct and indirect incurred costs, provisional approval of annual billing rates, approval of annual overhead rates, compliance with the FAR and CAS, compliance with certain unique contract clauses and audits of certain aspects of our internal control systems. Based on the information received to date, we do not believe any completed or ongoing government audits will have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows. The U.S. government also retains the right to pursue various remedies under any of these contracts which could result in challenges to expenditures, suspension of payments, fines and suspensions or debarment from future business with the U.S. government.
We accrued for probable and reasonably estimable unallowable costs associated with open government matters related to our MTS business in the amounts of $42 million as of July 4, 2025 and $41 million as of January 3, 2025, which are recorded in other liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Legacy U.S. Government Matters
Between 2002 and 2011, we provided significant support to the U.S. Army and other U.S. government agencies in support of the war in Iraq under the LogCAP III contract. We have been closing out the LogCAP III contract since 2011, and we expect the contract closeout process to continue for at least another year. As a result of our work under LogCAP III, there are claims and disputes pending between us and the U.S. government that need to be resolved in order to close the contract. The contract closeout process includes administratively closing the individual task orders issued under the contract. We continue to work with the U.S. government to resolve the issues to close the remaining task orders, which includes ongoing litigation of third-party vendor disputes. We also have matters related to ongoing litigation or investigations involving U.S. government contracts. We anticipate billing vendor resolution and vendor litigation costs as we resolve the open matters in the future.

Note 13. Share Repurchases
Authorized Share Repurchase Program
On February 25, 2014, the Board of Directors authorized a plan to repurchase our outstanding shares of common stock, which replaced and terminated the August 26, 2011 share repurchase program. On February 20, 2025, the Board of Directors authorized $454 million of share repurchases to be added to the prior authorizations, which increased the total amount authorized and available for repurchase under the share repurchase program to $750 million. As of July 4, 2025, $552 million remained available for repurchase under this authorization. The authorization does not obligate us to acquire any particular
24
number of shares of common stock and may be commenced, suspended or discontinued without prior notice. The share repurchases are intended to be funded through our current and future cash flows and the authorization does not have an expiration date.
Withheld to Cover Program
We have in place a "withhold to cover" program, which allows us to withhold common shares from employees in connection with the settlement of income tax and related benefit withholding obligations arising from the issuance of share-based equity awards under the KBR, Inc. 2006 Stock and Incentive Plan.

Note 15. Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Risk Management
Fair value measurements. The fair value of an asset or liability is the price that would be received to sell an asset or transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. We utilize a fair value hierarchy that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value and defines three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability or inputs derived from observable market data. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable, as reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities of these financial instruments. The carrying values and estimated fair values of our financial instruments that are not required to be recorded at fair value in our condensed consolidated balance sheets are provided in the following table.

The carrying value of the debt instruments listed above exclude debt issuance costs for the respective instrument. See Note 8 "Debt and Other Credit Facilities" for the debt issuance costs of our debt instruments and further discussion of our term loans, Senior Notes and Revolver.
The following disclosures for foreign currency risk and interest rate risk includes the fair value hierarchy levels for our assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
Foreign currency risk. We conduct business globally in numerous currencies and are therefore exposed to foreign currency fluctuations. We may use derivative instruments to reduce the volatility of earnings and cash flows associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We do not use derivative instruments for speculative trading purposes. We generally utilize foreign currency exchange forwards and option contracts to hedge exposures associated with forecasted future cash flows and to hedge exposures present on our balance sheet.
As of July 4, 2025, the gross notional value of our foreign currency exchange forwards and option contracts used to hedge balance sheet exposures was $206 million, all of which had durations of 25 days or less. The fair value of our balance sheet hedges are included in other current assets and other current liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets at July 4, 2025, and January 3, 2025. The fair values of these derivatives are considered Level 2 under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, as they are based on quoted prices directly observable in active markets.
The following table summarizes the recognized changes in fair value of our balance sheet hedges and remeasurement of balance sheet positions. These amounts are recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the periods presented. The net of our changes in fair value of hedges and the remeasurement of our assets and liabilities is included in other non-operating income (expense) on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Interest rate risk. We use interest rate swaps to reduce interest rate risk and to manage net interest expense by converting a portion of our variable rate debt under our Senior Credit Facility into fixed-rate debt. During the three months ended April 4, 2025, we entered into additional interest rate swap agreements to term SOFR. The effective date of the April 2025 Forward Interest Rate Swaps is August 14, 2027.
Our portfolio of interest rate swaps consists of the following:

*Includes the April 2025 Forward Interest Rate Swaps that become effective August 14, 2027.
Our interest rate swaps are reported at fair value using Level 2 inputs. The fair value of the interest rate swaps at July 4, 2025 was a $22 million net asset, of which $17 million is included in other current assets, $6 million is included in other assets and $1 million is included in other liabilities. The unrealized net gain on these interest rate swaps was $22 million and is included in AOCL as of July 4, 2025. The fair value of the interest rate swaps at January 3, 2025 was a $37 million net asset, of which $19 million is included in other current assets and $18 million is included in other assets. The unrealized net gains on these interest rate swaps was $37 million and is included in AOCL as of January 3, 2025.
Sales of Receivables. From time to time, we sell certain receivables to unrelated third-party financial institutions under various accounts receivable monetization programs. One such program is with MUFG Bank, Ltd. (“MUFG”) under a Master Accounts Receivable Purchase Agreement (the “RPA”), which provides the sale to MUFG of certain of our designated eligible receivables, with a significant portion of such receivables being owed by the U.S. government. During the six months ended July 4, 2025, we derecognized $1,500 million of accounts receivables from the balance sheet under these agreements, of which certain receivables totaling $1,471 million were sold under the MUFG RPA. The fair value of the sold receivables approximated their book value due to their short-term nature. The fees incurred are presented in other non-operating income (expense) on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Note 16. Acquisitions
Infrastar Limited
On May 17, 2025, we acquired Infrastar Limited for $35 million, which consisted of $15 million of cash and contingent consideration with an estimated fair value of $20 million that is contingent upon the achievement of certain performance targets through May 2027. The contingent consideration could result in cash payments aggregating up to approximately $24 million. Within our MTS segment, we recognized $4 million of cash, $11 million of intangible assets related to customer relationships and goodwill of $22 million primarily related to future growth opportunities. As of July 4, 2025, the estimated fair values of net assets acquired were preliminary. For U.S. tax purposes, the transaction is treated as a stock deal. As a result, there is no step-up in tax basis and the goodwill recognized is not deductible for tax purposes.

Note 17. Discontinued Operations
HomeSafe, a joint venture with Tier One Relocation, informed us on June 18, 2025, that U.S. Transportation Command unexpectedly terminated HomeSafe's role in the Global Household Goods Contract. KBR owns a 72 % interest in HomeSafe. The HomeSafe joint venture is a VIE that is consolidated for financial reporting purposes and was previously reported within our MTS business segment. As of July 4, 2025 substantially all of HomeSafe's operations, including run-off operations, have ceased. We disposed of HomeSafe in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 and determined that this disposal met the requirements to be reported as discontinued operations under ASC Subtopic 205-20 Discontinued Operations. We classified the disposal of HomeSafe as discontinued operations because it represents a strategic shift that significantly impacted our long-term operations plan. As such, the results of HomeSafe are presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for all periods presented.

Business Environment and Trends
Mission Technology Outlook
A continuing resolution funding measure has been enacted to finance all U.S. government activities through September 30, 2025, the remainder of the U.S. government's 2025 fiscal year. Under the continuing resolution, partial-year funding at amounts consistent with appropriated levels for fiscal year 2024 are available, subject to certain restrictions, but new spending initiatives are not authorized. Uncertainty continues to exist regarding the 2026 fiscal year budget and the impacts that the new legislative and executive branch will have on the next fiscal year budget. The Administration published its fiscal year 2026 budget request in June 2025. The budget request includes $848 billion in the base budget (discretionary) funding and $113 billion in reconciliation (mandatory) funding. The reconciliation bill H.R. 1 passed the Senate and House, and was signed by the President on July 4, 2025. The bill provides more than $150 billion in mandatory funding (inclusive of the $113 billion) for DoD available until September 30, 2029. We anticipate the federal budget will continue to be subject to debate and compromise shaped by, among other things, the new Administration and Congress, efficiency initiatives by the Department of Government Efficiency, the global security environment, inflationary pressures including tariffs and macroeconomic conditions. Thus far, the directives of the administration and actions of the DOGE have resulted in federal government staff reductions and hiring freezes and may result in delays in contract awards.
Internationally, our government work is performed primarily for the U.K. MoD and the Australian Department of Defence. In June 2025, leaders of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization ("NATO") agreed to invest 5% of their countries' GDP on defense and security-related spending by 2035. Additionally, in June 2025, the Strategic Defence Review was completed in the U.K. with plans to increase defense spending to 2.50% of GDP by 2027 and additional increases in following years to reach defense spending of 3.00% of GDP. Recognizing the importance of strong defense and the role the U.K. plays across the globe, the U.K. has prioritized investment in military research and investment in key areas to advance and develop capabilities around artificial intelligence, cyber security and space superiority. The Australian government continues to invest in defense spending, with particular focus on enhancing regional security, modernizing defense capabilities, strengthening cyber defenses and promoting broader economic stability. In March 2025, the Australian Minister for Defence announced that the Australian defense budget is expected to increase over the next four years.
A shift in funding priorities in the U.S. government or internationally could have material impacts on defense spending broadly and our programs. With defense and civil budgets driven in part by political instability, military conflicts, aging platforms and infrastructure and the need for technology advances, we expect continued opportunities to provide solutions and technologies to mission critical work aligned with our customers’ and our nation’s critical priorities.
Sustainable Technology Outlook
Long-range commercial market fundamentals are supported by global population growth, expanding global development and an acceleration of demand for energy transition, renewable energy sources and climate related solutions. The globe is in search of the solution to the energy trilemma, the balance between energy affordability, ensuring energy security and achieving environmental sustainability. While we have not had any material impact to our cost structure or ability to operate, we are monitoring the evolving macroeconomic environment due to ongoing tariffs including how those tariffs and any inflationary pressure may impact investment decisions from our core client base. Clients are prioritizing their efforts to solve the energy trilemma by investing in digital solutions to optimize operations, increase end-product flexibility and energy efficiency, reduce unplanned downtime and minimize environmental footprint. As the global focus on energy security intensifies and companies continue to commit to near-term carbon neutrality and longer-range net-zero carbon emissions, we expect spending to continue in areas such as decarbonization; carbon capture, utilization and sequestration; biofuels; and circular economy. Further, leading companies across the world are proactively evaluating clean energy alternatives, including hydrogen and green ammonia, which complements KBR's proprietary process technologies, solutions and capabilities. We expect climate protection, energy security and energy transition to continue to be areas of priority and investment as many countries, including the U.S., look to boost their economies and invest in a cleaner, more secure future.

Revenues. The increase in overall revenue of $105 million, or 6%, to $1,952 million for the three months ended July 4, 2025 is primarily due to the acquisition of LinQuest in our MTS business and increased revenues from engineering and professional services in our STS business.
Gross profit. The increase in overall gross profit of $20 million, or 7%, was primarily driven by items increasing revenues discussed above.
Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates. Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates increased by $11 million to $51 million in earnings for the three months ended July 4, 2025, compared to $40 million in earnings for the three months ended June 28, 2024. The increase is primarily attributed to equity in earnings from services on an LNG project within our STS segment.
Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses in the three months ended July 4, 2025 were $17 million higher, a 13% increase compared to the three months ended June 28, 2024, which was primarily driven by additional expenses incurred to support the growth in both our MTS and STS business segments.
Interest expense. The increase in interest expense was primarily driven by increased outstanding debt principal from the three months ended June 28, 2024 to the three months ended July 4, 2025.
34
Provision for income taxes. The provision for income taxes for income from continuing operations for the three months ended July 4, 2025 and June 28, 2024 reflects a 27% tax rate. The effective tax rate of 27% for the three months ended July 4, 2025 and June 28, 2024, as compared to the U.S. statutory rate of 21%, was primarily affected by the rate differential on our foreign earnings and the impact of state and local taxes in the U.S. See Note 9 "Income Taxes" to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion on income taxes.
Net income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax. Net income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax, was $(48) million and $1 million during the three months ended July 4, 2025 and June 28, 2024, respectively, due to the disposal of HomeSafe.
Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests included in discontinued operations. Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests included in discontinued operations was $(16) million and $1 million during the three months ended July 4, 2025 and June 28, 2024, respectively, due to the disposal of HomeSafe.

Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates increased by $23 million to $93 million in earnings for the six months ended July 4, 2025, compared to $70 million in earnings for the six months ended June 28, 2024. The increase is primarily attributed to equity in earnings from services on an LNG project within our STS segment.
Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses in the six months ended July 4, 2025 were $36 million higher, a 14% increase compared to the six months ended June 28, 2024, which was primarily driven by additional expenses incurred to support the growth in both our MTS and STS business segments.
Interest expense. The increase in interest expense was primarily driven by increased outstanding debt principal from the six months ended June 28, 2024 to the six months ended July 4, 2025.
37
Provision for income taxes. The provision for income taxes for income from continuing operations for the six months ended July 4, 2025 and June 28, 2024 reflects a 27% tax rate. The effective tax rate of 27%, as compared to the U.S. statutory rate of 21%, for the six months ended July 4, 2025 and June 28, 2024, was primarily affected by the rate differential on our foreign earnings and the impact of state and local taxes in the U.S. See Note 9 "Income Taxes" to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion on income taxes.
Net income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax. Net income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax, was $(54) million and $1 million during the six months ended July 4, 2025 and June 28, 2024, respectively, due to the disposal of HomeSafe.
Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests included in discontinued operations. Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests included in discontinued operations was $(18) million and $1 million during the six months ended July 4, 2025 and June 28, 2024, due to the disposal of HomeSafe.

Mission Technology Solutions
MTS revenues increased by $239 million, or 9%, to $2,880 million for the six months ended July 4, 2025, compared to $2,641 million for the six months ended June 28, 2024. The increase in revenue is primarily due to the acquisition of LinQuest.
MTS operating income increased by $12 million, or 5%, to $231 million for the six months ended July 4, 2025, compared to $219 million for the six months ended June 28, 2024. The increase in operating income was primarily driven by the growth associated with LinQuest. This growth was offset by a $6 million gain related to the sale of our investment interest in a joint venture during the six months ended June 28, 2024 that did not recur during the six months ended July 4, 2025.
Sustainable Technology Solutions
STS revenues increased by $66 million, or 6%, to $1,090 million for the six months ended July 4, 2025, compared to $1,024 million for the six months ended June 28, 2024. This increase is primarily driven by increased revenues from engineering and professional services.
STS operating income increased by $41 million, or 20%, to $242 million for the six months ended July 4, 2025, compared to $201 million for the six months ended June 28, 2024. The increase in operating income is primarily due to the items discussed above and increased equity in earnings from services on an LNG project.
Backlog of Unfilled Orders
Backlog represents the estimated dollar amount of revenues we expect to realize in the future as a result of performing work on contracts and our pro-rata share of work to be performed by our unconsolidated joint ventures. We include total estimated revenues in backlog when a contract is awarded under a legally binding agreement. In many instances, arrangements included in backlog are complex, nonrepetitive and may fluctuate over the contract period due to the release of contracted work in phases by the customer. Additionally, nearly all contracts allow customers to terminate the agreement at any time for convenience, and from time to time customers may dispute or try to renegotiate existing contracts. These and other factors may result in delays or changes in our recognition of revenue from our backlog versus amounts we book as backlog. Certain contracts provide maximum dollar limits, with actual authorization to perform work under the contract agreed upon on a periodic basis with the customer. In these arrangements, only the amounts authorized and probable are included in backlog. For projects where we act solely in a project management capacity, we only include the expected value of our services in backlog.
We define backlog, as it relates to U.S. government contracts, as our estimate of the remaining future revenue from existing signed contracts over the remaining base contract performance period (including customer approved option periods) for which work scope and price have been agreed with the customer. We define funded backlog as the portion of backlog for which funding currently is appropriated, less the amount of revenue we have previously recognized. We define unfunded backlog as the total backlog less the funded backlog. Our MTS backlog does not include any estimate of future potential delivery orders that might be awarded under our government-wide acquisition contracts, agency-specific indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity
39
contracts or other multiple-award contract vehicles, nor does it include option periods that have not been exercised by the customer.
Within our MTS business segment, we calculate estimated backlog for long-term contracts associated with the U.K. government's PFIs based on the aggregate amount that our client would contractually be obligated to pay us over the life of the project. We update our estimates of the future work to be executed under these contracts on a quarterly basis and adjust backlog, if necessary.
We have included in the table below our proportionate share of unconsolidated joint ventures' estimated backlog. As these projects are accounted for under the equity method, only our share of future earnings from these projects will be recorded in our results of operations. Our proportionate share of backlog for projects related to unconsolidated joint ventures totaled $2.8 billion at July 4, 2025 and January 3, 2025.
The following table summarizes our backlog by business segment as of July 4, 2025, and January 3, 2025, respectively. The disposal of HomeSafe met the requirements to be reported as discontinued operations. Backlog as of July 4, 2025 and January 3, 2025 does not include any amounts related to HomeSafe.

| Dollars in millions | 2025 | 2025 | |||||||||
| Mission Technology Solutions | $ | 12,972 | $ | 12,642 | |||||||

Award options | 4,873 | 3,975 | |||||||||
Total backlog and options | $ | 21,570 | $ | 20,580 | |||||||
We estimate that as of July 4, 2025, 34% of our backlog will be executed within one year. Of this amount, we estimate that 88% will be recognized in revenues on our condensed consolidated statement of operations and 12% will be recorded by our unconsolidated joint ventures. As of July 4, 2025, $175 million of our backlog relates to active contracts that are in a loss position.
As of July 4, 2025, 14% of our backlog was attributable to fixed-price contracts, 41% was attributable to PFIs, 27% was attributable to cost-reimbursable contracts and 18% was attributable to time-and-materials contracts. For contracts that contain fixed-price, cost-reimbursable and time-and-materials components, we classify the individual components as either fixed-price, cost-reimbursable or time-and-materials according to the composition of the contract; however, for smaller contracts, we characterize the entire contract based on the predominant component. As of July 4, 2025, $9.5 billion of our MTS backlog was currently funded by our customers.
As of July 4, 2025, we had approximately $4.9 billion of priced option periods not yet exercised by the customer for U.S. government contracts that are not included in the backlog amounts presented above.
The difference between backlog of $16.7 billion and the remaining performance obligations as defined by ASC 606 of $13.1 billion is primarily due to our proportionate share of backlog related to unconsolidated joint ventures which is not included in our remaining performance obligations. See Note 3 "Revenue" to our condensed consolidated financial statements for discussion of the remaining performance obligations.
40
Transactions with Joint Ventures
We form incorporated and unincorporated joint ventures to execute certain projects. In addition to participating as a joint venture partner, we often provide engineering, procurement, construction management, operations or maintenance services to the joint venture as a subcontractor. Where we provide services to a joint venture that we control and therefore consolidate for financial reporting purposes, we eliminate intercompany revenues and expenses on such transactions. In situations where we account for our interest in the joint venture under the equity method of accounting, we do not eliminate any portion of our subcontractor revenues or expenses, however, we recognize profit on our subcontractor scope of work up to but not in excess of the joint venture's percent complete on its scope of work. We recognize revenue over time on our services provided to joint ventures that we consolidate and our services provided to joint ventures that we record under the equity method of accounting. See Note 6 "Equity Method Investments and Variable Interest Entities" to our condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information. The information discussed therein is incorporated by reference into this Part I, Item 2.
Legal Proceedings
Information relating to various commitments and contingencies is described in Notes 5 "Unapproved Change Orders and Claims Against Clients", 10 "Commitments and Contingencies" and 11 "U.S. Government Matters" to our condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and the information discussed therein is incorporated by reference into this Part I, Item 2.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity is provided by available cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from operations, our Senior Credit Facility (as defined below), sale or divestiture of assets and access to capital markets. Our operating cash flow can vary significantly from year to year and is affected by the mix, terms, timing and stage of completion of our projects. We often receive cash in advance on certain of our sustainable technology projects. On time-and-material and cost reimbursable contracts, we may utilize cash on hand or availability under our Senior Credit Facility to satisfy any periodic operating cash requirements for working capital, as we incur costs and subsequently invoice our customers.
Certain STS services projects may require us to provide credit support for our performance obligations to our customers in the form of letters of credit, surety bonds or guarantees. Our ability to obtain new project awards in the future may be dependent on our letter of credit and surety bonding capacity, which may be further dependent on the timely release of existing letters of credit and surety bonds. As the need for credit support arises, letters of credit may be issued under the Revolver (as defined below) or with lending counterparties on a bilateral, syndicated or other basis.
We believe that existing cash balances, internally generated cash flows, availability under our Senior Credit Facility and other lines of credit are sufficient to support our business operations for the next 12 months. As of July 4, 2025, we are in compliance with all financial covenants related to our debt agreements.
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $403 million at July 4, 2025, and $342 million at January 3, 2025, and consisted of the following:
| July 4, | January 3, | ||||||||||
| Dollars in millions | 2025 | 2025 | |||||||||
| Domestic U.S. cash | $ | 131 | $ | 24 | |||||||
| International cash | 154 | 207 | |||||||||
| Joint venture and Aspire Defence project cash | 118 | 111 | |||||||||
| Total | $ | 403 | $ | 342 | |||||||
Our cash balances are held in numerous accounts throughout the world to fund our global activities, including acquisitions, joint ventures and other business partnerships. Domestic cash relates to cash balances held by U.S. entities and is largely used to support project activities of those businesses as well as general corporate needs such as the payment of dividends to shareholders, repayment of debt and potential repurchases of our outstanding common stock. Additionally, domestic cash and cash equivalents includes $11 million and $12 million held by our wholly owned captive insurance company as of July 4, 2025 and January 3, 2025, respectively, which is generally not available to KBR to support its other operations.
41
Our international cash balances may be available for general corporate purposes but are subject to local restrictions, such as capital adequacy requirements and maintaining sufficient cash balances to support our U.K. pension plan and other obligations incurred in the normal course of business by those foreign entities. Repatriations of our undistributed foreign earnings are generally free of U.S. tax but may incur withholding and/or state taxes. We consider our future non-U.S. cash needs as 1) our anticipated foreign working capital requirements, including funding of our U.K. pension plan, 2) the expected growth opportunities across all geographical markets and 3) our plans to invest in strategic growth opportunities, which may include acquisitions, joint ventures and other business partnerships around the world, including whether foreign earnings are permanently reinvested. If management were to completely remove the indefinite investment assertion on all foreign subsidiaries, the exposure to local withholding taxes would be less than $9 million.
Joint venture cash and Aspire Defence project cash balances reflect the amounts held by joint venture entities that we consolidate for financial reporting purposes. These amounts are limited to those entities' activities and are not readily available for general corporate purposes; however, portions of such amounts may become available to us in the future should there be a distribution of dividends to the joint venture partners. We expect that the majority of the joint venture cash balances will be utilized for the corresponding joint venture purposes or for paying dividends.
As of July 4, 2025, substantially all of our excess cash was held in interest bearing operating accounts or short-term investment accounts with the primary objectives of preserving capital and maintaining liquidity.
Cash Flows
The following table summarizes our cash flows for the periods indicated:
| Six Months Ended | |||||||||||
| July 4, | June 28, | ||||||||||
| Dollars in millions | 2025 | 2024 | |||||||||
| Cash flows provided by operating activities - continuing operations | $ | 308 | $ | 256 | |||||||
| Cash flows (used in) provided by investing activities - continuing operations | (24) | 19 | |||||||||
| Cash flows used in financing activities - continuing operations | (219) | (158) | |||||||||

| Effect of exchange rate changes on cash | 20 | (1) | |||||||||
| Increase in cash and cash equivalents | $ | 54 | $ | 110 | |||||||
Operating Activities - continuing operations. Cash provided by operations totaled $308 million and $256 million for the six months ended July 4, 2025 and June 28, 2024, respectively, as compared to net income from continuing operations of $227 million and $200 million for the six months ended July 4, 2025 and June 28, 2024, respectively. Cash flows from operating activities result primarily from earnings and are affected by changes in operating assets and liabilities, which consist primarily of working capital balances for projects. Working capital levels vary from year to year and are primarily affected by our volume of work. These levels are also impacted by the mix, stage of completion and commercial terms of projects. Working capital requirements also vary by project depending on the type of client and location throughout the world.
During the six months ended July 4, 2025, cash flows increased primarily due to the resolution of an outstanding unapproved change order within our Mission Technology Solutions segment. Additionally, there were increases in distributions of earnings from unconsolidated affiliates and decreases in pension funding that resulted in additional operating cash flows. These increases were offset primarily by changes in the primary components of our working capital. The primary components of our working capital accounts are accounts receivable, contract assets, accounts payable and contract liabilities. These components are impacted by the size and changes in the mix of our cost-reimbursable and time-and-materials projects versus fixed price projects, and as a result, fluctuations in these components are not uncommon in our business.
Investing Activities - continuing operations. Cash used in investing activities totaled $24 million for the six months ended July 4, 2025 primarily due to $16 million of capital expenditures and $11 million related to the acquisition of Infrastar Limited. This was offset by a return of equity method investment of $3 million associated with a joint venture in our STS segment.
Cash provided by investing activities totaled $19 million for the six months ended June 28, 2024. In 2024, we received a return of investment from JKC of approximately $36 million related to our proportionate share of a tax refund. Additionally, we received $6 million from the sale of our investment interest in a joint venture within our MTS segment. This was offset by $24 million in capital expenditures.
42
Financing Activities - continuing operations. Cash used in financing activities totaled $219 million for the six months ended July 4, 2025. The primary uses of cash in financing activities were $323 million in payments on the Revolver, $13 million in payments on on our Term Loan A, $5 million in payments on our Term Loan B, $198 million for the repurchase of common stock under our share repurchase program, $6 million for the repurchase of common stock under our "withhold to cover" program and $41 million of dividend payments to common shareholders. These decreases were offset by $373 million in borrowings on our Revolver.
Cash used in financing activities totaled $158 million for the six months ended June 28, 2024. The primary uses of cash in financing activities were $81 million of principal payments related to our Senior Credit Facility, $13 million in payments on the Revolver, $146 million for the repurchase of common stock under our share repurchase program and $12 million for the repurchase of common stock under our "withhold to cover" program. Cash used in financing activities also included $33 million payment for the settlement of warrants, $39 million of dividend payments to common shareholders and $16 million in debt issuance costs associated with Amendment No. 11 and No. 12 to our Credit Agreement for our Senior Credit Facility. These decreases were offset by $168 million in borrowings on our Revolver and $24 million in borrowings associated with Amendment No. 11 to our Credit Agreement.
Cash flows from discontinued operations. Cash flows from discontinued operations are associated with the disposal of HomeSafe. Cash used in operations totaled $27 million for the six months ended July 4, 2025 and cash provided by operations totaled $5 million for the six months ended June 28, 2024. Changes in HomeSafe's working capital accounts were the primary components of operating cash flows for the six months ended July 4, 2025 and June 28, 2024. Cash used in investing activities totaled $12 million and $11 million for the six months ended July 4, 2025 and June 28, 2024, respectively, which is related to capital expenditures. Cash provided by financing activities totaled $8 million for the six months ended July 4, 2025 due to investments from the noncontrolling interest partner. See Note 17 "Discontinued Operations" for additional information.
Future sources of cash. We believe that future sources of cash include cash flows from operations (including accounts receivable monetization arrangements), cash derived from working capital management and cash borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility.
Future uses of cash. We believe that future uses of cash include working capital requirements, joint venture capital calls, capital expenditures, dividends, pension funding obligations, repayments of borrowings, share repurchases, legal settlements of any currently outstanding legal matter or any future legal proceeding and strategic investments including acquisitions, joint ventures and other business partnerships. Our capital expenditures will be focused primarily on facilities and equipment to support our businesses. In addition, we will use cash to make payments under leases and various other obligations, including potential litigation payments, as they arise.
Other factors potentially affecting liquidity
Ichthys LNG Project. As part of the settlement agreement between JKC and Ichthys LNG, Pty, Ltd (collectively, “the Parties”) in October 2021, KBR’s letters of credit were reduced to $82 million from $164 million. Additionally, as part of this settlement agreement, the Parties agreed to consult in good faith and to cooperate to seek maximum recovery from the insurance policies and paint manufacturer for the deterioration of paint and insulation on certain exterior areas of the plant. The Parties agreed to collectively pursue claims against the paint manufacturer and JKC has assigned claims under the insurance policy regarding the paint and insulation matters to the client. The parties have agreed that if, at the date of final resolution of the above proceedings and claims with respect to the paint and insulation matters, the recovered amount from the paint manufacturer and insurance claim is less than the stipulated ceiling amount in the settlement agreement, JKC will pay the client the difference between the stipulated ceiling amount and the recovered amount. JKC has provided for and continues to maintain a provision for this contingent liability.
U.K. pension obligation. We have recognized on our condensed consolidated balance sheets a funding surplus of $115 million (calculated as the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the projected benefit obligation as of July 4, 2025) for our frozen U.K. defined benefit pension plan. The funding requirements for our U.K. pension plan are determined based on the U.K. Pensions Act 1995. Annual minimum funding requirements are based on a binding agreement with the Trustee of the U.K. pension plan that is negotiated on a triennial basis. This schedule of contributions will be reviewed by the Trustee and KBR no later than 15 months after the effective date of each actuarial valuation, due every three years. In 2024, the Trustee of the U.K. defined benefit pension plan commenced the triennial actuarial valuation of the plan which was finalized during the three months ended July 4, 2025. At this time, we do not anticipate contributing additional funding to this plan at least until the next triennial valuation occurs. In the future, pension funding may increase or decrease depending on changes in the levels of
43
interest rates, pension plan asset return performance and other factors. A significant increase in our funding requirements for the U.K. pension plan could result in a material adverse impact on our financial position.
Sales of Receivables. From time to time, we sell certain receivables to unrelated third-party financial institutions under various accounts receivable monetization programs. One such program is with MUFG under a Master Accounts Receivable Purchase Agreement, which provides the sale to MUFG of certain of our designated eligible receivables, with a significant portion of such receivables being owed by the U.S. government. We plan to continue to utilize these programs to ensure we have flexibility to meet our capital needs. Refer to Note 15 "Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Risk Management" to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion on our sales of receivables.
Credit Agreement and Senior Credit Facility
Information relating to our Senior Credit Facility is described in Note 8 "Debt and Other Credit Facilities" to our condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and the information discussed therein is incorporated by reference into this Part I, Item 2.
Senior Notes
Information relating to our Senior Notes is described in Note 8 "Debt and Other Credit Facilities" to our condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and the information discussed therein is incorporated by reference into this Part I, Item 2.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Letters of credit, surety bonds and guarantees. In the ordinary course of business, we may enter into various arrangements providing financial or performance assurance to customers on behalf of certain consolidated and unconsolidated subsidiaries, joint ventures and other jointly executed contracts. Such off-balance sheet arrangements include letters of credit, surety bonds and corporate guarantees to support the creditworthiness or project execution commitments of these entities and typically have various expiration dates ranging from mechanical completion of the project being constructed to a period beyond completion in certain circumstances such as for warranties. We may also guarantee that a project, once completed, will achieve specified performance standards. If the project subsequently fails to meet guaranteed performance standards, we may incur additional costs, pay liquidated damages or be held responsible for the costs incurred by the client to achieve the required performance standards. The potential amount of future payments that we could be required to make under an outstanding performance arrangement is typically the remaining estimated cost of work to be performed by or on behalf of third parties. For cost reimbursable contracts, amounts that may become payable pursuant to guarantee provisions are normally recoverable from the client for work performed under the contract. For fixed-price contracts, the performance guarantee amount is the cost to complete the contracted work, less amounts remaining to be billed to the client under the contract. Remaining billable amounts could be greater or less than the cost to complete the project. If costs exceed the remaining amounts payable under the contract, we may have recourse to third parties, such as owners, subcontractors or vendors for claims.
In our joint venture arrangements, the liability of each partner is usually joint and several. This means that each joint venture partner may become liable for the entire risk of performance guarantees provided by each partner to the customer. Typically, each joint venture partner indemnifies the other partners for any liabilities incurred in excess of the liabilities the other party is obligated to bear under the respective joint venture agreement. We are unable to estimate the maximum potential amount of future payments that we could be required to make under outstanding performance guarantees related to joint venture projects due to a number of factors, including but not limited to, the nature and extent of any contractual defaults by our joint venture partners, resource availability, potential performance delays caused by the defaults, the location of the projects and the terms of the related contracts. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors” contained in Part I of our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K for information regarding our fixed-price contracts and operations through joint ventures and partnerships.
In certain limited circumstances, we enter into financial guarantees in the ordinary course of business, with financial institutions and other credit grantors, which generally obligate us to make payment in the event of a default by the borrower. These arrangements generally require the borrower to pledge collateral to support the fulfillment of the borrower’s obligation. We account for both financial and performance guarantees at fair value at issuance in accordance with ASC 460-10 Guarantees and, as of July 4, 2025, we had no material guarantees of the work or obligations of third parties recorded.
As of July 4, 2025, we had a $1 billion committed line of credit on the Revolver under our Senior Credit Facility and $490 million of bilateral and uncommitted lines of credit. As of July 4, 2025, with respect to our Revolver, we had $395 million of outstanding borrowings. We also have $14 million of outstanding letters of credit on our Senior Credit Facility. With respect
44
to our $490 million of bilateral and uncommitted lines of credit, we had utilized $271 million for letters of credit as of July 4, 2025. The total remaining capacity of these committed and uncommitted lines of credit was approximately $810 million as of July 4, 2025, all of which can be used toward issuing letters of credit. Information relating to our letters of credit is described in Note 8 "Debt and Other Credit Facilities" to our condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the information discussed therein is incorporated by reference into this Part I, Item 2. Other than discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have not engaged in any material off-balance sheet financing arrangements through special purpose entities.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
There have been no material changes to our discussion of critical accounting policies and estimates from those set forth in our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended January 3, 2025, which discussion is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Cash and cash equivalents are deposited with major banks throughout the world. We invest excess cash and cash equivalents in short-term securities, primarily money market funds, which carry a fixed rate of return. We have not incurred any credit risk losses related to deposits of our cash and cash equivalents.
Foreign Currency Risk. Because of the global nature of our business, we are exposed to market risk associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We have historically attempted to limit exposure to foreign currency fluctuations through provisions requiring the client to pay us in currencies corresponding to the currency in which cost is incurred. In addition to this natural hedge, we may use foreign exchange forward contracts and options to hedge material exposures when forecasted foreign currency revenues and costs are not denominated in the same currency and when efficient markets exist. These derivatives are generally designated as cash flow hedges and are carried at fair value.
We use derivative instruments, such as foreign exchange forward contracts, to hedge foreign currency risk related to non-functional currency assets and liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We do not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading purposes or make speculative investments in foreign currencies. Each period, these balance sheet hedges are marked to market through earnings and the change in their fair value is largely offset by remeasurement of the underlying assets and liabilities. We recorded a net loss of $5 million and $2 million during the six months ended July 4, 2025 and June 28, 2024, respectively, in other non-operating expense on our condensed consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of these derivatives was not material to our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of July 4, 2025. Information relating to fair value measurements is described in Note 15 "Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Risk Management" to our condensed consolidated financial statements, which is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.
Interest Rate Risk. We are exposed to market risk for changes in interest rates for the Revolver and term loan borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility. We had $395 million of borrowings issued under the Revolver as of July 4, 2025. Additionally, we had $1,992 million outstanding under the term loan portions of the Senior Credit Facility as of July 4, 2025. Borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility bear interest at variable rates as described in Note 8 "Debt and Other Credit Facilities" to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
We use interest rate swaps to reduce interest rate risk and to manage net interest expense by converting our variable rate debt under our Senior Credit Facility into fixed-rate debt. During the six months ended July 4, 2025, we entered into additional interest rate swap agreements to term SOFR. The effective date of the April 2025 Forward Interest Rate Swaps is August 14, 2027.

The swap agreements were designated as cash flow hedges at inception in accordance with ASC Topic 815 Derivative and Hedging. The fair value of the interest rate swaps at July 4, 2025 was a $22 million net asset, of which $17 million is included in other current assets, $6 million is included in other assets and $1 million is included in other liabilities. Information relating to our portfolio of interest rate swaps is described in Note 15 "Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Risk Management" to our condensed consolidated financial statements, which is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.
At July 4, 2025, we had fixed rate debt aggregating $1,819 million and variable rate debt aggregating $818 million, after taking into account the effects of the interest rate swaps that were effective at July 4, 2025. Our weighted average interest rate net of the impact from our swap agreements for the six months ended July 4, 2025 was 5.04%. If interest rates were to increase by 50 basis points, pre-tax interest expense would increase by approximately $4 million in the next twelve months net of the impact from our swap agreements, based on outstanding borrowings as of July 4, 2025.
