Ingalls Shipbuilding revenues for the second quarter of 2026 were $845 million, an increase of $121 million, or 16.7%, from the same period in 2025, primarily driven by higher volumes in amphibious assault ships.

Ingalls Shipbuilding segment operating income for the second quarter of 2026 was $58 million, an increase of $4 million from the same period in 2025. Segment operating margin in the second quarter of 2026 was 6.9%, compared to 7.5% in the same period last year.

Newport News Shipbuilding revenues for the second quarter of 2026 were $1.8 billion, an increase of $246 million, or 15.3%, from the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily driven by higher volumes in aircraft carriers and submarines.

Newport News Shipbuilding segment operating income for the second quarter of 2026 was $111 million, an increase of $29 million from the same period in 2025. Segment operating margin in the second quarter of 2026 was 6.0% compared to 5.1% in the same period last year. The increase in segment operating income was primarily driven by contract adjustments and incentives in aircraft carriers and the higher volumes described above, partially offset by lower performance in aircraft carriers.

Key Newport News Shipbuilding milestones for the quarter:

Redelivered Virginia-class submarine USS New Jersey (SSN 796) following completion of post-shakedown availability, a maintenance period that typically follows delivery of new ships and includes combat systems and electronics upgrades, as well as general maintenance on the submarine

Segment operating margin %	7.2%		4.6%				269 bps	6.0%		5.0%				99 bps

Mission Technologies revenues for the second quarter of 2026 were $760 million, a decrease of $31 million, or 3.9%, from the same period in 2025. The decrease was primarily due to lower volumes in All-Domain Operations, largely related to the impact of a favorable non-recurring settlement in the second quarter of 2025, as well as lower volumes in Global Security, partially offset by higher volumes in Warfare Systems and Unmanned Systems.

Mission Technologies segment operating income for the second quarter of 2026 was $55 million, an increase of $19 million from the same period in 2025. Segment operating margin in the second quarter of 2026 was 7.2%, compared to 4.6% in the same period last year. The increase in segment operating income was primarily due to higher equity income from nuclear and environmental joint ventures.

Mission Technologies results included approximately $17 million of amortization of purchased intangible assets in the second quarter of 2026, compared to approximately $23 million in the same period last year.

Mission Technologies EBITDA marginin the second quarter of 2026 was 10.1%, compared to 8.1% in the second quarter of 2025.

Exhibit B: Non-GAAP Measures Definitions & Reconciliations

This earnings release contains non-GAAP (accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America) financial measures as defined by SEC Regulation G and indicated by a footnote in the text of this release. Definitions for the non-GAAP measures, and related reconciliations, are provided below. Because not all companies use identical definitions or calculations, our presentation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Segment Operating Income and Segment Operating Margin. We internally manage our operations by reference to segment operating income and segment operating margin and use these measures to evaluate our core operating performance. We believe that segment operating income and segment operating margin reflect additional ways of viewing aspects of our operations that, when viewed with our GAAP results, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. These measures should be considered in addition to, and not as alternatives for, operating income and operating margin or any other performance measure presented in accordance with GAAP.

Segment operating income is defined as operating income for the relevant segment(s) before the Operating FAS/CAS Adjustment and non-current state income taxes.

Segment operating margin is defined as segment operating income as a percentage of sales and service revenues.

Shipbuilding operating margin, Mission Technologies EBITDA and Mission Technologies EBITDA margin. We use shipbuilding operating margin, Mission Technologies EBITDA and Mission Technologies EBITDA margin to evaluate our core operating performance. We believe these measures reflect additional ways of viewing aspects of our operations that, when viewed with our GAAP results, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. These measures should be considered in addition to, and not as alternatives for, operating income and operating margin or any other performance measure presented in accordance with GAAP.

Shipbuilding operating margin is defined as the combined segment operating income of our Newport News Shipbuilding segment and Ingalls Shipbuilding segment as a percentage of shipbuilding revenue. Shipbuilding revenue is the sum of revenues of our Newport News Shipbuilding segment and Ingalls Shipbuilding segment.

Mission Technologies EBITDA is defined as Mission Technologies segment operating income before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization.

Mission Technologies EBITDA margin is defined as Mission Technologies EBITDA as a percentage of Mission Technologies revenues.

Free cash flow. We use free cash flow as a key operating metric in assessing the performance of our business and as a key performance measure in evaluating management performance and determining incentive compensation. We believe free cash flow is an important measure that may be useful to investors and other users of our financial statements because it provides insight into our current and period-to-period performance and our ability to generate cash from continuing operations. Free cash flow has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, net income as a measure of our performance or net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.

Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less capital expenditures net of related grant proceeds.

In reliance upon Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K, reconciliations of forward-looking GAAP and non-GAAP measures are not provided because of the unreasonable effort associated with providing such reconciliations due to the variability in the occurrence and the amounts of certain components of GAAP and non-GAAP measures. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to future results.
