Revenues for the quarter were $4.63 billion, up 4% compared to the third quarter of 2025. Revenue grew year-over-year due to increased customer demand for defense tech products, air traffic management solutions, and intelligence mission support as well as the acquisition of ENTRUST Solutions, which offset declines in some managed health and federal civilian IT programs.
For the third quarter, net income was $413 million, or $3.28 per diluted share. Net income and diluted EPS were up 12% and 16%, respectively, year-over-year; net income margin was 8.9% compared to 8.3% in the third quarter of 2025. Net income and diluted EPS for the quarter reflect $12 million in costs associated with recent strategic corporate transactions. Adjusting for these and certain other items, non-GAAP net income increased 14% year-over-year, to $455 million for the third quarter, and non-GAAP diluted EPS increased 19% to $3.62. GAAP and non-GAAP earnings measures reflect a lower effective tax rate, primarily due to an increase in the federal research tax credit and a decrease in unrecognized tax benefits.
In addition, adjusted EBITDA was $644 million for the third quarter, up 5% year-over-year. Adjusted EBITDA margin of 13.9% increased from 13.8% in the third quarter of 2025. Profitability in the quarter was driven by improved program performance and disciplined cost management across the portfolio.

For the quarter, Leidos used $48 million in investing activities, including $47 million in property, equipment and software payments. Leidos used $549 million in financing activities, consisting primarily of $556 million returned to shareholders, including $504 million in share repurchases and $52 million as part of a regular quarterly cash dividend program.

Trailing-twelve-month book-to-bill of 1.1 resulted in year-over-year growth in total and funded backlog of 4% and 22%, respectively. Quarterly bookings included several key awards:
- U.S. Air Force Air Combat Command (ACC) Intelligence Directorate (A2) Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance (ISR). Leidos secured a $717 million contract to continue providing critical threat mitigation and ISR operations support for the Air Force's ACC A2. Leidos is executing at 35 global locations, delivering embedded advanced data fusion across ACC headquarters, numbered Air Forces, and wings to ensure that the joint force maintains a decisive information advantage.
- Transportation Security Administration (TSA) Security Equipment Deployment Services (SEDS). TSA awarded Leidos a $672 million contract to continue to deploy, relocate, and manage critical security screening equipment across all federalized U.S. airports and major domestic special events. This award builds upon more than a decade of Leidos supporting TSA infrastructure, leveraging their deep logistics and integration expertise to protect the nation's transportation systems and adapt swiftly to emerging security threats.
- Defense Health Agency (DHA) Military Health System (MHS) GENESIS Bridge. Leidos secured a 12-month, $318 million sole-source bridge contract to sustain and enhance MHS GENESIS, including system maintenance, cybersecurity, performance monitoring, technology updates, and end-user support. The award ensures continuity of critical operations while reinforcing Leidos' expertise in modernizing complex federal health systems and delivering technology that supports healthcare for service members and their families.
- U.S. Army Defensive Cyber Solutions Branch (DCSB) Defensive Cyber Operations (DCO) 2.0. Leidos was awarded a $301 million follow-on contract to provide 24/7/365 defensive cyber operations for the Department of War Information Network (DoDIN). To support the agency's migration toward continuous, automated outcome delivery, Leidos is deploying its UpHold Effect Agentic SOC Automation platform. The platform utilizes autonomous AI agents that dramatically compresses threat response windows and eliminates analyst alert fatigue to ensure a hardened, reliable global network capable of defending against growing and evolving threats.
- Space Development Agency (SDA) Accelerated Missile Defense Tranche 3 (AMDT3). Leidos secured a $272 million award from Sierra Space to provide infrared sensing payloads, onboard signal-processing capabilities, and mission support for the AMDT3 Tracking Layer. The payloads will fly on 18 missile-tracking satellites, which are designed to detect hypersonic and other advanced threats from Low Earth Orbit. This award expands Leidos' position in space sensing and onboard digital processing, and builds on its execution record on Tranches 0, 1, and 2.
- United Kingdom (UK) National Air Traffic Services (NATS) Flight Data Processing (FDP) Evolution. Leidos received a $170 million contract to upgrade the core flight data processing software under the UK NATS FDP Evolutions program, replacing legacy systems with a modern architecture that automatically delivers real-time flight data to air traffic controllers.

- U.S. Cyber Command (CYBERCOM) Cyberspace Operations Support Services (COSS). Leidos secured a five-year, $160 million contract to support USCYBERCOM's J3, Cyber National Mission Force, and Joint Task Force Area with planning, training, strategy, doctrine development, and campaign assessment.

with USCYBERCOM and establishes a prime foothold with a strategically important customer in a high-growth national security mission area.
- U.S. Navy Nuclear-Armed Sea-Launched Cruise Missile (SLCM-N). The Navy awarded Leidos a $155 million contract to continue to advance flight systems integration and flight vehicle subsystem development for a sea-based theater nuclear deterrent.
- Customer & Border Patrol (CBP) and Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE) Shared Electronic Health Record (EHR) Platform and Support Services. Leidos secured a five-year, $129 million single-award blanket purchase agreement (BPA) to implement and sustain a modern EHR system for U.S. CBP and ICE. Under the initial call order, Leidos will deploy an integrated EHR system for ICE, consolidating core healthcare capabilities, enabling secure information exchange, and improving continuity of care. Building on the company's MHS GENESIS success, the award establishes and foundation for expansion across Department of Homeland Security (DHS) components.
- U.S. Army Long-Range Persistent Surveillance - Mobile (ALPS-M) and U.S. Marine Corps Multi-Role Air Defense Radar (MRADR). The Army awarded Leidos a $95 million contract to deliver 10 prototypes of its current ALPS capability, which is being deployed globally through the U.S. Air Force's Air Base Air Defense System - Missile Defense (ABADS-MD) program. Separately, Leidos secured a $41 million contract to build 14 additional MRADR systems for the Marine Corps. Together, these awards demonstrate sustained customer demand for Leidos' family of persistent surveillance sensing technologies.
- AGM-190A Small Cruise Missile (SCM) Program. The U.S. Special Operations Command awarded Leidos a $27 million contract for the Low-Rate Initial Production (LRIP) of the AGM-190A Havoc Spear SCM.

FORWARD GUIDANCE
On October 5, 2026, Leidos closed the Contribution and Equity Purchase Agreement with Altaris, contributing the Security Enterprise Solutions and Industrial Automation (SES) businesses to a newly formed joint venture. After adjusting for the Joint Venture and incorporating its year-to-date performance and current outlook, Leidos is adjusting its fiscal year 2026 guidance as follows:
| FY26 Guidance |
|---|
| Measure | Current | Prior |
| Revenues (B) | $18.00 - $18.20 | $18.20 - $18.40 |
| Adjusted EBITDA Margin | Mid 13% | Mid 13% |
| Non-GAAP Diluted EPS | $12.50 - $12.70 | $12.20 - $12.50 |
| Cash Flows Provided by Operating Activities (B) | Approximately $1.90 | Approximately $1.85 |
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.

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 grew 1% year-over-year to $1.55 billion driven by recent contract awards and higher volumes and expanded scope across key Intelligence Community programs offset by reductions in certain federal civilian IT programs. Operating income margin was 11.1% compared to 9.2% in the prior year quarter, and non-GAAP operating income margin was 11.5%, up from the prior year quarter. Profitability enhancements were driven by a mix of better program execution, including strong award fee scores and disciplined cost management across the segment.
Health
Health revenues of $1.07 billion decreased by 12% compared to the prior year quarter. Health operating income margin for the quarter was 22.5%, compared to 26.8% in the prior year quarter, and non-GAAP operating income margin was 22.8%, compared to 27.3% in the prior year quarter. The declines in revenues and margins were driven by expected program shifts and reduced volumes on managed health services programs.
Homeland
Homeland revenues of $1.02 billion increased by 32% compared to the prior year quarter. Revenue growth was driven by strong demand for air traffic management and electric power distribution engineering solutions as well as $142 million from the acquisition of ENTRUST Solutions. Operating income margin for the quarter was 7.9%, compared to 6.5% in the prior year quarter, and non-GAAP operating margin increased to 11.3% from 7.5% in the prior year quarter. Profitability enhancements reflect an increased mix of higher-margin commercial work and disciplined cost management across the segment.

UNAUDITED SEGMENT OPERATING RESULTS
Defense
Defense revenues of $992 million were up 3% compared to the prior year quarter led by increased demand for several defense technology areas including air defense, sensing, and C5ISR systems. Defense operating income margin for the quarter was 8.7%, compared to 8.2% in the prior year quarter, and non-GAAP operating margin was 9.7%, compared to 9.8% in the prior year quarter.

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:
| October 2, 2026 | October 3, 2025 |
|---|
| (in millions) | Funded | Unfunded | Total | Funded | Unfunded | Total |
| Intelligence & Digital | $2,098 | $16,074 | $18,172 | $2,092 | $17,339 | $19,431 |

| Total | $11,062 | $38,492 | $49,554 | $9,064 | $38,592 | $47,656 |
Backlog at October 2, 2026, includes amounts acquired as part of the Entrust transaction. As of March 27, 2026, the acquisition date, Entrust had $371 million of backlog that was included 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.
- Asset impairment charges - Represents impairments of long-lived intangible assets and other assets.
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 non-GAAP non 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.
