Revenues for the quarter were $4.40 billion, up 4% compared to the first quarter of 2025, including 3% organically. Revenues grew year-over-year due to increased customer demand, especially for innovative products and solutions in Intelligence, commercial energy infrastructure, and domestic and international air traffic management.
For the first quarter, net income was $335 million, or $2.56 per diluted share. Net income and diluted EPS were both down 8% year-over-year; net income margin was 7.6% compared to 8.6% in the first quarter of 2025. Net income and diluted EPS for the quarter reflect $39 million in costs associated with the acquisition of ENTRUST Solutions Group ("Entrust") and the pending joint venture to combine the Security Enterprise Solutions and Industrial Automation businesses of Leidos with Analogic Corporation. Adjusting for one-time items like those, non-GAAP net income rose 4% year-over-year, to $408 million for the first quarter, and non-GAAP diluted EPS rose 5% to $3.13.
In addition, adjusted EBITDA was $614 million for the first quarter, up 2% year-over-year. Adjusted EBITDA margin of 14.0% decreased from 14.2% in the first quarter of 2025. Profitability remained high through prudent cost management, excellent award and incentive fee performance, and a $15 million insurance reimbursement for legal costs incurred prior to fiscal 2026.

CASH FLOW SUMMARY
In the first quarter, Leidos generated $301 million of net cash provided by operating activities, used $2.36 billion in investing activities and generated $1.39 billion in financing activities. Net cash provided by operating activities was driven by strong EBITDA and collections performance.
The primary investment in the quarter was the acquisition of Entrust. In addition, investing activities included $31 million in property, equipment and software payments, which resulted in quarterly free cash flow of $270 million. Financing activities were driven by proceeds of $1.4 billion in senior notes and $300 million in commercial paper to finance the Entrust acquisition, as well as $298 million returned to shareholders, including $243 million in share repurchases and $55 million as part of a regular quarterly cash dividend program. As of April 3, 2026, Leidos had $457 million in cash and cash equivalents and $6.3 billion of debt.
On May 1, 2026, the Leidos Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.43 per share. The dividend will be payable on June 30, 2026, to stockholders of record at the close of business on June 15, 2026.
NEW BUSINESS AWARDS
Net bookings totaled $3.3 billion in the quarter, representing a book-to-bill ratio of 0.8. As a result, backlog at the end of the quarter was $48.4 billion, of which $9.6 billion was funded. Trailing-twelve-month book-to-bill of 1.1 resulted in year-over-over growth in total and funded backlog of 4% and 31%, respectively. Included in the quarterly bookings were several notable awards:
- Mission Awareness Capabilities Ramp-up and Optimization (MACRO) II. Leidos has been awarded a five-year, $869 million MACRO II task order to develop and integrate secure, AI-enabled systems for the U.S. Army that enhance decision-making across all military domains. The program focuses on transforming large volumes of data into actionable insights, enabling faster and more effective battlefield decisions. This award aligns with Leidos’ NorthStar 2030 strategy, reinforcing its role in advancing digital modernization and mission software capabilities for multi-domain operations.
- Global Solutions Management-Operations (GSM-O) II Task Orders. The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) awarded Leidos over $461M in multi-year awards, including the renewal of two cyber task orders. Under the GSM-O II Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract, Leidos provides exceptional 24x7 worldwide operational and defensive cyber performance on the Department of Defense (DOD) Information Network / Defense Information System Network (DODIN/DISN), including Epic Fury surge support with emergency circuit activations, site restoral efforts and extended cyber coverage.
- National Security Agency (NSA) Technical Signals Intelligence (TechSIGINT) Modernization. The NSA awarded Leidos a two-year $335 million contract to extend and expand support for its TechSIGINT modernization efforts. NSA's TechSIGINT mission delivers critical insights into foreign weapons systems and air and space capabilities, strengthening the nation's ability to understand and respond to evolving global threats. Leidos will develop and deploy new systems using cloud architectures and standardized NSA corporate infrastructures and services and will provide the technical services to develop, deploy and sustain a wide range of enhanced TechSIGINT collection, production and analysis capabilities.
- Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Infrastructure Support Services 2 (ISS2). Leidos has been awarded the U.S. SEC's ISS2 contract, a 10-year award valued at approximately $284 million to help further modernize, secure, and operate the agency's core IT environment. Through ISS2, Leidos will support an enterprise environment serving approximately 5,900 federal and contractor end users and help sustain the resilient infrastructure, end-user services, and software ecosystem that underpin the SEC's mission to protect investors, maintain fair, orderly, and efficient markets, and facilitate capital formation.

FORWARD GUIDANCE
Leidos is raising its fiscal year 2026 guidance as follows:
| FY26 Guidance |
|---|
| Measure | Current | Prior |
| Revenues (B) | $18.00 - $18.40 | $17.50 - $17.90 |
| Adjusted EBITDA Margin | Mid 13% | Mid 13% |
| Non-GAAP Diluted EPS | $12.10 - $12.50 | $12.05 - $12.45 |
| Cash Flows Provided by Operating Activities (B) | Approximately $1.80 | Approximately $1.75 |
For information regarding adjusted EBITDA margin and non-GAAP diluted EPS, see the related explanations and reconciliations to GAAP measures included elsewhere in this release.
Leidos does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted EBITDA margins or non-GAAP diluted EPS to net income margin or diluted EPS due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation. Because certain deductions for non-GAAP exclusions used to calculate projected net income margin or diluted EPS may vary significantly based on actual events, Leidos is not able to forecast on a GAAP basis with reasonable certainty all deductions needed in order to provide a GAAP calculation of projected net income at this time. The amounts of these deductions may be material and, therefore, could result in projected net income margin and diluted EPS being materially less than what may be implied by projected adjusted EBITDA margins and non-GAAP diluted EPS.

| Total | 11.5% | 12.5% |
Beginning fiscal 2026, we completed a realignment of our reporting structure, which resulted in the identification of four reportable segments: Intelligence & Digital, Health, Homeland and Defense. Additionally, we separately present the unallocable costs associated with corporate functions as Corporate. We commenced operating and reporting under the new organizational structure effective the first day of fiscal 2026. As a result of this change, prior year segment results have been recast to reflect the current reportable segment structure.
Intelligence & Digital
Intelligence & Digital revenues of $1.51 billion increased by 7% compared to the prior year quarter. Revenue growth was driven by recent contract awards and increased volumes for Intelligence Community mission support, as well as $22 million from the acquisition of Kudu Dynamics. For the quarter, operating income margin increased to 9.6% from 9.4% in the prior year quarter. Similarly, non-GAAP operating income margin of 10.2% was up from 9.7% in the prior year quarter.
Health
Health revenues of $1.19 billion, unchanged compared to the prior year quarter. Health profitability was also relatively stable across periods. Health operating income margin for the quarter was 23.9%, compared to 24.2% in the prior year quarter, and non-GAAP operating income margin was 24.2%, compared to 24.7% in the prior year quarter.
Homeland
Homeland revenues of $816 million increased by 6% compared to the prior year quarter driven primarily by continued strong demand for Energy Infrastructure engineering services and domestic and international air traffic control systems. Operating income margin for the quarter was 4.0%, compared to 7.9% in the prior year quarter, primarily from costs associated with the acquisition of Entrust and the pending joint venture to combine the Security Enterprise Solutions and Industrial Automation businesses of Leidos with Analogic Corporation. Non-GAAP operating margin decreased to 8.5% from 9.4% in the prior year quarter as the result of changing customer requirements on a fixed price program.
| 9 | Leidos Holdings, Inc. Exhibit 99.1 |
UNAUDITED SEGMENT OPERATING RESULTS
Defense
Defense revenues of $883 million were up slightly compared to the prior year quarter, as strong growth in integrated air defense systems offset the wind down of certain airborne surveillance programs. Defense operating income margin for the quarter was 7.0%, compared to 8.4% in the prior year quarter, and non-GAAP operating margin was 8.3%, compared to 9.8% in the prior year quarter. The lower profitability resulted from schedule delays on a fixed price development program.

UNAUDITED BACKLOG BY REPORTABLE SEGMENT
Backlog represents the revenues we expect to recognize under negotiated contracts and unissued task orders on sole source IDIQ contracts, to the extent we believe their execution and funding to be probable. Backlog does not include potential task orders expected to be awarded under multiple award IDIQ contracts.
Backlog value is based on management’s estimates about volume of services, availability of customer funding and other factors, and excludes contracts that are under protest. Estimated backlog comprises both funded and negotiated unfunded backlog. Backlog estimates are subject to change and may be affected by several factors, including modifications of contracts, non-exercise of options and foreign currency movements.
Funded backlog for contracts with the U.S. government represents the value on contracts for which funding is appropriated less revenues previously recognized on these contracts. Funded backlog for contracts with non-U.S. government entities and commercial customers represents the estimated value on contracts, which may cover multiple future years, under which Leidos is obligated to perform, less revenue previously recognized on the contracts. Unfunded backlog represents all remaining value on task orders that is not funded, including options, that we expect to recognize as well as expected future task orders under sole source IDIQ contracts.
The estimated value of backlog as of the dates presented was as follows:
| April 3, 2026 | April 4, 2025 |
|---|
| (in millions) | Funded | Unfunded | Total | Funded | Unfunded | Total |
| Intelligence & Digital | $1,882 | $17,453 | $19,335 | $1,745 | $15,603 | $17,348 |
| Health | 1,760 | 4,800 | 6,560 | 832 | 7,431 | 8,263 |
| Homeland | 3,304 | 6,580 | 9,884 | 2,617 | 7,357 | 9,974 |
| Defense | 2,652 | 9,938 | 12,590 | 2,135 | 8,576 | 10,711 |
| Total | $9,598 | $38,771 | $48,369 | $7,329 | $38,967 | $46,296 |
Backlog at April 3, 2026, includes $371 million acquired through the acquisition of Entrust within the Homeland reportable segment.

UNAUDITED NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Leidos uses and refers to non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, non-GAAP diluted EPS, non-GAAP free cash flow and non-GAAP free cash flow conversion, which are not measures of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. and, accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the comparable GAAP measures and should be read in conjunction with Leidos's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Management believes that these non-GAAP measures provide another representation of the results of operations and financial condition, including its ability to comply with financial covenants. These non-GAAP measures are frequently used by financial analysts covering Leidos and its peers. The computation of non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, thus limiting their use for comparability.
Organic revenues capture the revenue that is inherent in the underlying business excluding the impact of acquisitions and divestitures made within the prior year; it is computed as current revenues excluding revenues from acquisitions within the last 12 months and divestitures within the current and year-ago periods.
Non-GAAP operating income is computed by excluding the following discrete items from operating income:
- Acquisition, integration and restructuring costs - Represents acquisition, integration, lease termination, severance and retention costs and asset markdowns related to acquisitions and restructuring activities.
- Amortization of acquired intangible assets - Represents the amortization of the fair value of the acquired intangible assets. We do not exclude the revenue associated with these acquired intangible assets from non-GAAP operating income.
Non-GAAP non operating income is computed by excluding the discrete items from operating income and the following discrete items from non operating income.
- Settlement loss on pension plan buy-out - Represents the settlement loss in connection with the buy-out of our UK defined benefit pension plan.
- Acquisition related financing costs - Represents the cost associated with the termination of the bridge loan facility in connection with the acquisition of Entrust.
Non-GAAP operating margin is computed by dividing non-GAAP operating income by revenues.
Adjusted EBITDA is computed by excluding the following items from income before income taxes: (i) discrete items as identified above; (ii) interest expense; (iii) interest income; (iv) depreciation expense; and (v) amortization of internally developed intangible assets.
Adjusted EBITDA margin is computed by dividing adjusted EBITDA by revenues.
Non-GAAP net income is computed by excluding the discrete items listed under non-GAAP operating income and their related tax impacts.
Non-GAAP diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income attributable to Leidos common stockholders, adjusted for the discrete items as identified above and the related tax impacts, by the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding.
Non-GAAP free cash flow is computed by deducting expenditures for property, equipment and software from net cash provided by (used in) operating activities.
Non-GAAP free cash flow conversion is computed by dividing non-GAAP free cash flow by non-GAAP net income attributable to Leidos common stockholders; operating cash flow conversion is computed by dividing net cash provided by operating activities by net income attributable to Leidos common stockholders.
