HUNTINGTON INGALLS INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Huntington Ingalls Industries, Inc. ("HII" or the "Company") is one of America’s largest military shipbuilding companies and a provider of professional services to partners in government and industry. HII is organized into three reportable segments: Ingalls Shipbuilding ("Ingalls"), Newport News Shipbuilding ("Newport News"), and Technical Solutions. For more than a century, the Company's Ingalls and Newport News segments in Mississippi and Virginia have built more ships in more ship classes than any other U.S. naval shipbuilder. The Technical Solutions segment provides a wide range of professional services, including fleet support, integrated mission solutions, and nuclear and environmental and oil and gas services.

HII conducts most of its business with the U.S. Government, principally the Department of Defense ("DoD"). As prime contractor, principal subcontractor, team member, or partner, the Company participates in many high-priority U.S. defense technology programs. Through its Ingalls segment, HII is a builder of amphibious assault and expeditionary ships for the U.S. Navy, the sole builder of National Security Cutters for the U.S. Coast Guard, and one of only two companies that builds the Navy's current fleet of Arleigh Burke class (DDG 51) destroyers. Through its Newport News segment, HII is the nation's sole designer, builder, and refueler of nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, and one of only two companies currently designing and building nuclear-powered submarines for the U.S. Navy. The Technical Solutions segment, established in the fourth quarter of 2016, provides a range of services to the governmental, energy, and oil and gas markets.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Principles of Consolidation - The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of HII and its subsidiaries have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and the instructions to Form 10-Q promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). All intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. For classification of current assets and liabilities related to its long-term production contracts, the Company uses the duration of these contracts as its operating cycle, which is generally longer than one year. Additionally, certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. See Note 9: Segment Information.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature considered necessary by management for a fair presentation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows and should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

The quarterly information is labeled using a calendar convention; that is, first quarter is consistently labeled as ending on March 31, second quarter as ending on June 30, and third quarter as ending on September 30. It is management's long-standing practice to establish interim closing dates using a "fiscal" calendar, which requires the businesses to close their books on a Friday near these quarter-end dates in order to normalize the potentially disruptive effects of quarterly closings on business processes. The effects of this practice only exist for interim periods within a reporting year.

Accounting Estimates - The preparation of the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingencies at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates have been prepared on the basis of the most current and best available information, and actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

The Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015 established limits on U.S. Government discretionary spending, including defense spending, and provided sequestration relief for 2016 and 2017. Sequestration remains in effect for 2018 through 2021 and could result in significant decreases in DoD spending that could negatively impact the Company's revenues and its estimated recovery of goodwill and other long-lived assets.

Revenue Recognition - The majority of the Company's business is derived from long-term contracts for the construction of naval vessels, production of goods, and provision of services, principally for the U.S. Government. In

accounting for these contracts, the Company extensively utilizes the cost-to-cost measure of the percentage-of-completion method of accounting, principally based upon total costs incurred. Under this method, sales, including estimated earned fees or profits, are recorded as costs are incurred, generally based on the percentage that total costs incurred bear to total estimated costs at completion. Certain contracts contain provisions for price redetermination or for cost and/or performance incentives. Such redetermined amounts or incentives are included in sales when the amounts can reasonably be determined and estimated. Amounts representing contract change orders, claims, requests for equitable adjustment, or limitations in funding are included in sales only when they can be reliably estimated and realization is probable. The Company estimates profit as the difference between total estimated revenues and total estimated cost of a contract and recognizes that profit over the life of the contract based on progress toward completion. If the Company estimates a contract will result in a loss, the full amount of the estimated loss is recognized against income in the period in which the loss is identified. The Company classifies contract revenues as product sales or service revenues depending upon the predominant attributes of the relevant underlying contracts.

The Company recognizes changes in estimates of contract sales, costs, and profits using the cumulative catch-up method of accounting. This method recognizes in the current period the cumulative effect of the changes on current and prior periods. Accordingly, the effect of the changes on future periods of contract performance is recognized as if the revised estimate had been the original estimate. For the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, net cumulative catch-up adjustments increased operating income by $60 million and $74 million, respectively, and increased diluted earnings per share by $0.85 and $1.02, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, net cumulative catch-up adjustments increased operating income by $86 million and $143 million, respectively, and increased diluted earnings per share by $1.21 and $1.97, respectively. Cumulative catch-up adjustments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, included favorable adjustments of $30 million on a contract at the Ingalls segment, which increased diluted earnings per share by $0.42 in both periods. Cumulative catch-up adjustments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, included favorable adjustments of $38 million and $60 million, respectively, on a contract at the Ingalls segment, which increased diluted earnings per share by $0.52 and $0.82, respectively. Cumulative catch-up adjustments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, included favorable adjustments of $23 million and $26 million, respectively, on a contract at the Newport News segment, which increased diluted earnings per share by $0.31 and $0.36, respectively.

For services contracts not associated with the design, development, manufacture, or modification of complex equipment, revenues are recognized upon delivery or as services are rendered once persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured. Costs related to these contracts are expensed as incurred.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments - Except for the Company's long-term debt, the carrying amounts of the Company's financial instruments recorded at historical cost approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of the instruments and low credit risk associated with the respective counterparties.

The Company maintains multiple grantor trusts established to fund certain non-qualified pension plans. These trusts were valued at $87 million and $82 million as of June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, respectively, and are presented within miscellaneous other assets within the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of financial position. These trusts consist primarily of available-for-sale investments in marketable securities, which are held at fair value within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Accounts Receivable - The Company has limited exposure to credit losses and maintains an allowance for anticipated losses considered necessary under the circumstances based on historical experience with uncollected customer accounts and a review of its currently outstanding accounts receivable. As of June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, the Company had an allowance for doubtful accounts of $28 million and $4 million, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company recorded $29 million in allowance for doubtful accounts within the Technical Solutions segment related to a commercial customer’s petition for bankruptcy protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. During the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company released $7 million of the allowance for doubtful accounts following its receipt of bankruptcy related payments from its commercial customer. Additionally, certain payments totaling $28 million received from this customer may be reclaimed if any such payment is determined to have been a preferential payment or similar transaction under applicable bankruptcy laws.

Related Party Transactions - On March 29, 2011, HII entered into a Separation and Distribution Agreement with its former parent company, Northrop Grumman Corporation ("Northrop Grumman"), and Northrop Grumman's

Table of Contents

subsidiaries (Northrop Grumman Shipbuilding, Inc. and Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation), pursuant to which HII was legally and structurally separated from Northrop Grumman. As of June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, the Company was due $9 million and $33 million, respectively, from Northrop Grumman under spin-off related agreements. As of each of June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, the Company had $84 million outstanding under Industrial Revenue Bonds issued by the Mississippi Business Finance Corporation. Prior to the spin-off, repayment of principal and interest was guaranteed by Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation. The guaranty remains in effect, and the Company has agreed to indemnify Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation for any losses related to the guaranty.

3. ACCOUNTING STANDARDS UPDATES

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”, which will replace existing requirements in U.S. GAAP, including industry-specific requirements, significantly expand the disclosure requirements, and provide companies with a single revenue recognition model for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. The core principle of the new standard is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The two permitted transition methods under the new standard are the full retrospective method, in which case the standard would be applied to each prior reporting period presented, or the modified retrospective method, in which case the cumulative effect of applying the standard would be recognized at the date of initial application. In July 2015, the FASB approved the deferral of the new standard's effective date by one year. The new standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The FASB permitted companies to adopt the new standard early, but not before the original effective date of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016.

As part of the Company's corporate governance structure, the Company established an implementation team comprised of key stakeholders across the Company's businesses. The Company developed a plan to identify and implement applicable changes to its business processes, systems, and controls. These changes are necessary to support recognition and disclosure under the new standard. In the first quarter of 2017, the Company reached a point in its assessment to support a transition decision based on information obtained to date. Based on its evaluation, the Company is planning to adopt the requirements of the new standard in the first quarter of 2018 utilizing the modified retrospective method. As a result, the Company will present the cumulative effect of applying the standard at the date of initial application, January 1, 2018. Based on the results of the assessment performed to date, the impact of adopting the new standard on the Company's 2018 total sales and service revenues and operating income is not expected to be material. The assessment of the majority of the Company's contracts under the new standard supports the recognition of revenue over time using the cost-to-cost measurement under the percentage of completion method, which is consistent with the Company's current revenue recognition practices. As such, the revenue on the majority of the Company's contracts will continue to be recognized over time considering the continuous transfer of control to the customer. Under U.S. Government contracts, this continuous transfer of control to the customer is supported by clauses in the contract that allow the customer to unilaterally terminate the contract for convenience, pay the Company for costs incurred plus a reasonable profit, and take control of any work in process.

Additionally, the Company has made progress in redefining its accounting policies affected by this standard and the enhancement of internal controls over financial reporting related to the standard, as well as evaluating the expanded disclosure requirements. The Company expects to complete the evaluation of the impact of the accounting and disclosure changes on its business processes, controls and systems during the second half of 2017, and implement any changes to such business processes, controls and systems over the remainder of 2017.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”, which establishes a right-of-use model that requires a lessee to record the right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the statement of operations and comprehensive income. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted and should be applied using a modified retrospective approach. The Company is in the process of evaluating the potential impacts of ASU 2016-02 on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures, contracting and accounting processes, internal controls, and information technology systems.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment”, which eliminates the performance of Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. In performing its annual or interim impairment testing, an entity will instead compare the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount and recognize any impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. Additionally, an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2017-04 to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and disclosures, accounting processes, or internal controls.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, “Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost”. The update requires employers to present the service cost component of the net periodic benefit cost in the same income statement line item as other employee compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period. The other components of net benefit cost, including interest cost, expected return on plan assets, amortization of prior service cost/credit and actuarial gain/loss, and settlement and curtailment effects, are to be presented outside of any subtotal of operating income. Employers will have to disclose the line(s) used to present the other components of net periodic benefit cost, if the components are not presented separately in the income statement. ASU 2017-07 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2017-07 on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures, accounting processes, and relevant internal controls.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-10, "Service Concession Arrangements (Topic 853): Determining the Customer of the Operation Services", which addresses how an operating entity should determine the customer for operations under a service concession arrangement. The update clarifies that the grantor is the customer of the operation services in all cases for these arrangements. This standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The FASB permitted companies to adopt the new standard early, but not before the original effective date of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2017-10 on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures, accounting processes, and relevant internal controls.
 
Other pronouncements issued but not effective until after December 31, 2017, are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

4. AVONDALE

In 2010, plans were announced to consolidate the Company's Ingalls shipbuilding operations by winding down shipbuilding at the Avondale, Louisiana facility in 2013 after completion of LPD-class ships that were under construction at this facility. In October 2014, the Company ceased shipbuilding construction operations at the Avondale facility. Effective July 31, 2017, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with a potential buyer of the Avondale facility. After conducting due diligence on the property, the potential buyer has the right to determine whether or not to proceed to closing.

In connection with and as a result of the decision to wind down shipbuilding at the Avondale facility, the Company began incurring and paying related costs, including, but not limited to, severance expense, relocation expense, and asset write-downs related to the Avondale facilities. The Company’s current estimated net restructuring and shutdown costs are $276 million, comprised of $308 million of restructuring and shutdown costs, partially offset by $32 million from the anticipated disposition of assets. As of June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, the Company

8

Table of Contents

had incurred restructuring and shutdown related costs of $289 million and $287 million, respectively. Substantially all of these costs were incurred from 2010 through 2014. None of the recoverable costs related to the wind down of the Avondale facility have been included in billings to the U.S. Government. These recoverable costs are recorded in contract working capital within inventoried costs, accounts receivable and advance payments and billings in excess of revenues. The Company believes such costs are recoverable under existing flexibly-priced contracts or future negotiated contracts in accordance with applicable provisions of the Federal Acquisition Regulation ("FAR") and Cost Accounting Standards for the treatment of restructuring and shutdown related costs, which permit contractors to defer such costs and amortize the amounts over a period not to exceed five years. The Company has been amortizing the deferred costs over a five year period since 2014, when the Company ceased shipbuilding construction operations at the Avondale facility.

The Company has engaged in communications and negotiations with the U.S. Navy since 2010 regarding the amount and recovery of the Company's restructuring and shutdown costs, including submitting revised proposals to address the concerns of the Defense Contract Audit Agency in 2011 and 2014. In June 2016, the Company submitted to the contracting officer a request for a final decision regarding the Avondale facility restructuring costs. In December 2016, the contracting officer denied the Company’s claim, on the purported basis that the Company had not adequately shown savings and other benefits that would accrue to the U.S. Government from the closing of Avondale and consolidation of Ingalls shipbuilding to the Pascagoula facility. While the Company is continuing to engage in negotiations with the U.S. Navy, the Company is pursuing its claim through the Civilian and Armed Services Boards of Contract Appeals, seeking recovery of the Avondale restructuring costs pursuant to the Contract Disputes Act. The Company continues to believe its claim is reasonably based and supported by law. Accordingly, the Company anticipates an ultimate resolution that is substantially in accordance with management's cost recovery expectations. Any subsequent inability to recover costs substantially in accordance with management’s cost recovery expectations could result in a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

5. GULFPORT

In September 2013, the Company announced the closure of its Gulfport Composite Center of Excellence in Gulfport, Mississippi, part of the Ingalls reportable segment, which it completed in August 2014. In connection with this closure, the Company incurred total costs of $54 million, consisting of $52 million in accelerated depreciation of fixed assets and $2 million in personnel, facility shutdown, and other related costs. In March 2015, the Company sold the Gulfport Composite Center of Excellence to the Mississippi State Port Authority for $32 million, resulting in a gain on disposition of $9 million, recorded as a reduction to contract costs in accordance with the terms of the Company’s contracts with the U.S. Government.

The Company has received communications from the Supervisor of Shipbuilding questioning the Company's treatment and proposed allocation of the Gulfport closure costs. The Company has responded to such communications with the position that its proposed accounting and allocation of the closure costs complies with applicable law, and the Company and the U.S. Government remain in discussions about the proper accounting and allocation of such costs. While the Company anticipates a resolution that is substantially in accordance with management's cost recovery expectations, any inability to recover such costs substantially in accordance with the Company's cost recovery expectations could result in a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

6. ACQUISITIONS

On December 1, 2016, the Company acquired, for approximately $369 million in cash, net of $27 million of cash acquired, Camber Holding Corporation ("Camber"), a provider of mission-based and information technology solutions to the U.S. Government. The acquisition was consistent with the Company's strategy to optimize and expand its services portfolio. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, Camber contributed revenues of $85 million and $165 million, respectively, and operating income of $2 million and $4 million, respectively. In connection with this acquisition, the Company recorded $262 million of goodwill, all of which was allocated to its Technical Solutions segment, primarily related to the value of Camber's workforce, and $76 million of intangible assets related to existing contract backlog. See Note 11: Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. During the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recorded a goodwill adjustment of $16 million, primarily driven by the refinement of fair value calculations for certain assets and liabilities and the finalization of the net working capital adjustment. The Company has not completed the purchase price allocation due to potential adjustments upon

finalization of the fair values of certain assets and liabilities. The assets, liabilities, and results of operations of Camber are not material to the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

7. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

Treasury Stock - In October 2015, the Company's board of directors authorized an increase in the Company's stock repurchase program from $600 million to $1,200 million. Repurchases are made from time to time at management's discretion in accordance with applicable federal securities laws. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company repurchased 1,065,737 shares at an aggregate cost of $210 million, of which approximately $3 million was not yet settled for cash as of June 30, 2017. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company repurchased 606,027 shares at an aggregate cost of $84 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company also settled for cash $2 million of shares repurchased in the prior year. The cost of purchased shares is recorded as treasury stock in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of financial position.

Dividends - The Company declared cash dividends per share of $0.60 and $0.50 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The Company declared cash dividends per share of $1.20 and $1.00 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The Company paid cash dividends totaling $55 million and $48 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) - Other comprehensive income (loss) refers to gains and losses recorded as an element of stockholders' equity but excluded from net earnings (loss). The accumulated other comprehensive loss as of June 30, 2017, was comprised of unamortized benefit plan costs of $921 million and other comprehensive income items of $2 million. The accumulated other comprehensive loss as of December 31, 2016, was comprised of unamortized benefit plan costs of $948 million and other comprehensive loss items of $3 million.

9. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company is organized into three reportable segments: Ingalls, Newport News, and Technical Solutions, consistent with how management makes operating decisions and assesses performance. The Technical Solutions segment was established in the fourth quarter of 2016 in conjunction with the Company's acquisition of Camber and realignment of management oversight to enhance strategic and operational alignment among the Company's

11. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill

HII performs impairment tests for goodwill as of November 30 of each year and between annual impairment tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair values of the Company's reporting units below their carrying values.

Accumulated goodwill impairment losses as of each of June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, were $2,877 million. The accumulated goodwill impairment losses for Ingalls as of each of June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, were $1,568 million. The accumulated goodwill impairment losses for Newport News as of each of June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, were $1,187 million. The accumulated goodwill impairment losses for Technical Solutions as of each of June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, were $122 million.

For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the carrying amounts of goodwill changed as follows:

During the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recorded a goodwill adjustment of $16 million in the Technical Solutions segment, primarily driven by the refinement of fair value calculations for certain assets and liabilities and the finalization of the net working capital adjustment related to the acquisition of Camber.

Other Intangible Assets

The Company's purchased intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis or a method based on the pattern of benefits over their estimated useful lives. Net intangible assets consist principally of amounts pertaining to nuclear-powered aircraft carrier and submarine program intangible assets, with an aggregate weighted-average useful life of 40 years based on the long life cycle of the related programs. Aggregate amortization expense was $9 million and $6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $20 million and $11 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

In connection with the Camber acquisition in 2016, the Company recorded $76 million of intangible assets pertaining to existing contract backlog and customer relationships, to be amortized using the pattern of benefits method over a weighted-average life of 10 years.

The Company expects amortization expense for purchased intangible assets of approximately $40 million in 2017, $36 million in 2018, $32 million in 2019, $28 million in 2020, and $26 million in 2021.

12. INCOME TAXES

The Company's earnings are principally domestic, and its effective tax rates on earnings from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, were 32.6% and 33.2%, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company's effective tax rates on earnings from operations were 27.1% and 28.5%, respectively. The lower effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2017, was primarily attributable to an increase in the domestic manufacturing deduction. The lower effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2017, was primarily attributable to an increase in the domestic manufacturing deduction and an increase in income tax benefits associated with stock award settlement activity.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company's effective tax rates differed from the federal statutory rate primarily as a result of the income tax benefits resulting from stock award settlement activity and the domestic manufacturing deduction. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company's effective tax rates differed from the federal statutory rate primarily as a result of the adoption of ASU 2016-09, which reduced income tax expense by the income tax benefits resulting from stock award settlement activity, and the domestic manufacturing deduction.

Table of Contents


The Company’s unrecognized tax benefits decreased by $2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2017, as a result of the expiration of applicable statutes of limitation. The remaining unrecognized tax benefits are immaterial and will likely be recognized in the next 12 months as a result of expiration of applicable statutes of limitation.

Non-current state income taxes include deferred state income taxes, which reflect the change in deferred state tax assets and liabilities, and the tax expense or benefit associated with changes in state uncertain tax positions in the relevant period. These amounts are recorded within operating income. Current period state income tax expense is charged to contract costs and included in cost of sales and service revenues in segment operating income.

Credit Facility - In July 2015, the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amended Credit Facility”) with third-party lenders. The Amended Credit Facility includes a revolving credit facility of $1,250 million, which may be drawn upon during a period of five years from July 2015. The revolving credit facility includes a letter of credit subfacility of $500 million. The revolving credit facility has a variable interest rate on outstanding borrowings based on the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus a spread based upon the Company's leverage ratio, which may vary between 1.25% and 2.0%. The revolving credit facility also has a commitment fee rate on the unutilized balance based on the Company’s leverage ratio. The commitment fee rate as of June 30, 2017, was 0.25% and may vary between 0.25% and 0.35%.

The Amended Credit Facility contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, as well as a financial covenant based on a maximum leverage ratio, which could limit the amount of dividends the Company may pay and shares the Company may repurchase. Each of the Company's existing and future material wholly owned domestic subsidiaries, except those that are specifically designated as unrestricted subsidiaries, are and will be guarantors under the Amended Credit Facility. Substantially all tangible and intangible material assets of the Company and domestic subsidiaries are pledged as collateral under the Amended Credit Facility.

As of June 30, 2017, approximately $15 million in standby letters of credit were issued but undrawn, and the remaining $1,235 million of the revolving credit facility was unutilized. The Company had unamortized debt issuance costs associated with its credit facilities of $7 million and $8 million as of June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, respectively.

Senior Notes - In December 2014, the Company issued $600 million aggregate principal amount of unregistered 5.000% senior notes due December 2021. In November 2015, the Company issued $600 million aggregate principal amount of unregistered 5.000% senior notes due November 2025. Interest on the Company's senior notes is payable semi-annually.

The terms of the senior notes limit the Company’s ability and the ability of certain of its subsidiaries to create liens, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, sell assets, and effect consolidations or mergers. The Company had unamortized debt issuance costs associated with the senior notes of $17 million and $19 million as of June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, respectively.

Mississippi Economic Development Revenue Bonds - As of each of June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, the Company had $84 million outstanding under Industrial Revenue Bonds issued by the Mississippi Business Finance

Corporation. These bonds accrue interest at a fixed rate of 7.81% per annum (payable semi-annually) and mature in 2024.

Gulf Opportunity Zone Industrial Development Revenue Bonds - As of each of June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, the Company had $21 million outstanding under Gulf Opportunity Zone Industrial Development Revenue Bonds issued by the Mississippi Business Finance Corporation. These bonds accrue interest at a fixed rate of 4.55% per annum (payable semi-annually) and mature in 2028.

The Company's debt arrangements contain customary affirmative and negative covenants, including a maximum leverage ratio. The Company was in compliance with all debt covenants during the six months ended June 30, 2017.

The estimated fair values of the Company's total long-term debt as of June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, were $1,385 million and $1,372 million, respectively. The fair values of the Company's long-term debt were calculated based on either recent trades of the Company's debt instruments in inactive markets or yields available on debt with substantially similar risks, terms and maturities, which fall within Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy.

The Company has $600 million in principal payments due on long-term debt in 2021.

14. INVESTIGATIONS, CLAIMS, AND LITIGATION

The Company is involved in legal proceedings before various courts and administrative agencies, and is periodically subject to government examinations, inquiries and investigations. Pursuant to FASB Accounting Standards Codification 450 Contingencies, the Company has accrued for losses associated with investigations, claims, and litigation when, and to the extent that, loss amounts related to the investigations, claims, and litigation are probable and can be reasonably estimated. The actual losses that might be incurred to resolve such investigations, claims, and litigation may be higher or lower than the amounts accrued. For matters where a material loss is probable or reasonably possible and the amount of loss cannot be reasonably estimated, but the Company is able to reasonably estimate a range of possible losses, the Company will disclose such estimated range in these notes. This estimated range is based on information currently available to the Company and involves elements of judgment and significant uncertainties. Any estimated range of possible loss does not represent the Company's maximum possible loss exposure. For matters as to which the Company is not able to reasonably estimate a possible loss or range of loss, the Company will indicate the reasons why it is unable to estimate the possible loss or range of loss. For matters not specifically described in these notes, the Company does not believe, based on information currently available to it, that it is reasonably possible that the liabilities, if any, arising from such investigations, claims, and litigation will have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. The Company has, in certain cases, provided disclosure regarding certain matters for which the Company believes at this time that the likelihood of material loss is remote.

False Claims Act Complaint - In 2015, the Company received a Civil Investigative Demand from the DoJ relating to an investigation of certain allegedly non-conforming parts the Company purchased from one of its suppliers for use in connection with U.S. Government contracts. The Company has cooperated with the DoJ in connection with its investigation. In 2016, the Company was made aware that it is a defendant in a False Claims Act lawsuit filed under seal in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida related to the Company’s purchases of the allegedly non-conforming parts from the supplier. Depending upon the outcome of this matter, the Company could be subject to civil penalties, damages, and/or suspension or debarment from future U.S. Government contracts, which could have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. The matter remains sealed and given the current posture of the matter, the Company is unable to estimate an amount or range of reasonably possible loss or to express an opinion regarding the ultimate outcome.

U.S. Government Investigations and Claims - Departments and agencies of the U.S. Government have the authority to investigate various transactions and operations of the Company, and the results of such investigations may lead to administrative, civil or criminal proceedings, the ultimate outcome of which could be fines, penalties, repayments or compensatory, treble, or other damages. U.S. Government regulations provide that certain findings against a contractor may also lead to suspension or debarment from future U.S. Government contracts or the loss of export privileges. Any suspension or debarment would have a material effect on the Company because of its reliance on government contracts.

In January 2013, the Company disclosed to the DoD, including the U.S. Navy, and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, including the U.S. Coast Guard, pursuant to the FAR, that it had initiated an internal investigation regarding whether certain employees at Ingalls mischarged time or misstated progress on Navy and Coast Guard contracts. The Company conducted an internal investigation, led by external counsel, and has taken remedial actions, including the termination of employees in instances where the Company believed grounds for termination existed. The Company provided information regarding its investigation to the relevant government agencies. The Company agreed with the U.S. Navy and U.S. Coast Guard that they would initially withhold $24 million in payments on existing contracts pending receipt of additional information from the Company's internal investigation. The U.S. Navy has reduced its portion of the withhold from $18.2 million to $4.7 million, while expressing its view that the gross amount of potential mischarging incurred by the Navy will likely not exceed $3.1 million. The U.S. Coast Guard informed the Company in June 2014 that it was provisionally reducing its withhold from $5.8 million to $3.6 million. Based on the results of its internal investigation, the Company estimates that the maximum amount of U.S. Navy and Coast Guard mischarging is approximately $4 million. The Company is continuing discussions with its U.S. Government customers regarding the potential release of an additional portion of the withheld funds, but the Company cannot predict whether or when these customers will agree to any additional release of the withhold amounts.

In June 2015, the DoJ informed the Company that it is investigating the matters disclosed by the Company to the DoD in January 2013. In July 2015, the DoJ requested information from the Company, and the Company is cooperating with the DoJ’s requests and has provided certain information to the DoJ. Depending upon the outcome of this matter, the Company could be subject to civil penalties, damages, and/or suspension or debarment from future U.S. Government contracts, which could have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. Given the current stage of the Company’s discussions with the DoJ, the Company is currently unable to estimate the ultimate outcome of this matter.

Asbestos Related Claims - HII and its predecessors-in-interest are defendants in a longstanding series of cases that have been and continue to be filed in various jurisdictions around the country, wherein former and current employees and various third parties allege exposure to asbestos containing materials while on or associated with HII premises or while working on vessels constructed or repaired by HII. The cases allege various injuries, including those associated with pleural plaque disease, asbestosis, cancer, mesothelioma, and other alleged asbestos related conditions. In some cases, several of HII's former executive officers are also named as defendants. In some instances, partial or full insurance coverage is available to the Company for its liability and that of its former executive officers. The average cost per case to resolve cases during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, was immaterial individually and in the aggregate. The Company’s estimate of asbestos-related liabilities is subject to uncertainty because liabilities are influenced by numerous variables that are inherently difficult to predict. Key variables include the number and type of new claims, the litigation process from jurisdiction to jurisdiction and from case to case, reforms made by state and federal courts, and the passage of state or federal tort reform legislation. Although the Company believes the ultimate resolution of current cases will not have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows, it cannot predict what new or revised claims or litigation might be asserted or what information might come to light and can, therefore, give no assurances regarding the ultimate outcome of asbestos related litigation.

Other Litigation - The Company and its predecessor-in-interest have been in litigation with the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela (the “Republic”) since 2002 over a contract for the repair, refurbishment, and modernization at Ingalls of two foreign-built frigates. The case proceeded towards arbitration, then appeared to settle favorably, but the settlement was overturned in court and the matter returned to litigation. In March 2014, the Company filed an arbitral statement of claim asserting breaches of the contract and $173 million in damages plus substantial interest and litigation expenses. In July 2014, the Republic filed in the arbitration a statement of defense denying all the Company’s allegations and a counterclaim alleging late redelivery of the frigates, unfinished work, and breach of warranty and asserting damages of $61 million plus interest. An arbitration hearing was held in January 2015, and the Company cannot predict when the arbitration panel will render a decision. No assurances can be provided regarding the ultimate outcome of this matter.

The Company is party to various claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although the Company believes that the resolution of any of these various claims and legal proceedings will not have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows, it cannot predict what new or revised claims or litigation might be asserted or what information might come to light and can, therefore, give no assurances regarding the ultimate outcome of these matters.

15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Contract Performance Contingencies - Contract profit margins may include estimates of revenues for matters on which the customer and the Company have not reached agreement, such as settlements in the process of negotiation, contract changes, claims, and requests for equitable adjustment for unanticipated contract costs. These estimates are based upon management's best assessment of the underlying causal events and circumstances, and are included in determining contract profit margins to the extent of expected recovery based on contractual entitlements and the probability of successful negotiation with the customer. In June 2016, the Company submitted to the contracting officer a request for a final decision regarding the Avondale restructuring costs the Company has incurred, and in December 2016, the contracting officer denied the Company’s claim. The Company is pursuing its claim through the Civilian and Armed Services Boards of Contract Appeals, seeking recovery of the Avondale restructuring costs pursuant to the Contract Disputes Act. See Note 4: Avondale. As of June 30, 2017, the recognized amounts related to other claims and requests for equitable adjustment were not material individually or in the aggregate.

Guarantees of Performance Obligations - From time to time in the ordinary course of business, HII may enter into joint ventures, teaming, and other business arrangements to support the Company's products and services. The Company generally strives to limit its exposure under these arrangements to its investment in the arrangement, or to the extent of obligations under the applicable contract. In some cases, however, HII may be required to guarantee performance of the arrangement's obligations and, in such cases, generally obtains cross-indemnification from the other members of the arrangement.

In the ordinary course of business, the Company may guarantee obligations of its subsidiaries under certain contracts. Generally, the Company is liable under such an arrangement only if its subsidiary is unable to perform under its contract. Historically, the Company has not incurred any substantial liabilities resulting from these guarantees. As of June 30, 2017, the Company was not aware of any existing event of default that would require it to satisfy any of these guarantees.

Environmental Matters -The estimated cost to complete environmental remediation has been accrued where it is probable that the Company will incur such costs in the future to address environmental conditions at currently or formerly owned or leased operating facilities, or at sites where it has been named a Potentially Responsible Party ("PRP") by the Environmental Protection Agency or similarly designated by another environmental agency, and the related costs can be estimated by management. These accruals do not include any litigation costs related to environmental matters, nor do they include amounts recorded as asset retirement obligations. To assess the potential impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements, management estimates the range of reasonably possible remediation costs that could be incurred by the Company, taking into account currently available facts on each site, as well as the current state of technology and prior experience in remediating contaminated sites. These estimates are reviewed periodically and adjusted to reflect changes in facts and technical and legal circumstances. Management estimates that as of June 30, 2017, the probable future cost for environmental remediation was $1 million, which is accrued in other current liabilities. Factors that could result in changes to the Company's estimates include: modification of planned remedial actions, increases or decreases in the estimated time required to remediate, changes to the determination of legally responsible parties, discovery of more extensive contamination than anticipated, changes in laws and regulations affecting remediation requirements, and improvements in remediation technology. Should other PRPs not pay their allocable share of remediation costs, the Company may incur costs exceeding those already estimated and accrued. In addition, there are certain potential remediation sites where the costs of remediation cannot be reasonably estimated. Although management cannot predict whether new information gained as projects progress will materially affect the estimated liability accrued, management does not believe that future remediation expenditures will have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Financial Arrangements - In the ordinary course of business, HII uses standby letters of credit issued by commercial banks and surety bonds issued by insurance companies principally to support the Company's self-insured workers' compensation plans. As of June 30, 2017, the Company had $15 million in standby letters of credit issued but undrawn, as indicated in Note 13: Debt, and $258 million of surety bonds outstanding.

U.S. Government Claims - From time to time, the U.S. Government communicates to the Company potential claims, disallowed costs, and penalties concerning prior costs incurred by the Company with which the U.S. Government disagrees. When such preliminary findings are presented, the Company and U.S. Government representatives engage in discussions, from which HII evaluates the merits of the claims and assesses the amounts being

17

Table of Contents

questioned. Although the Company believes that the resolution of any of these matters will not have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows, it cannot predict the ultimate outcome of these matters.

Collective Bargaining Agreements - Of the Company's approximately 37,000 employees, approximately 50% are covered by a total of nine collective bargaining agreements. Newport News has four collective bargaining agreements covering represented employees. On July 13, 2017, Newport News employees represented by the United Steelworkers ratified a new collective bargaining agreement with Newport News. The agreement which expires in November 2021, covers approximately 50% of Newport News employees. On May 15, 2017, Newport News reached agreement with the International Association of Machinists on a new collective bargaining agreement expiring in November 2020. The remaining two collective bargaining agreements at Newport News expire August 2018 and December 2018. Newport News craft workers employed at the Kesselring Site near Saratoga Springs, New York are represented under an indefinite Department of Energy ("DoE") site agreement. Ingalls has five collective bargaining agreements covering represented employees, all of which expire in March 2018. Approximately 35 Technical Solutions craft employees at the Hanford Site near Richland, Washington are represented under an indefinite DoE site stabilization agreement.
 
Collective bargaining agreements generally expire after three to five years and are subject to renegotiation at that time. The Company does not expect the results of these negotiations, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated results of operations.


16. EMPLOYEE PENSION AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS

The Company provides defined benefit pension plans and postretirement benefit plans, and defined contribution pension plans to eligible employees.

17. STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS

During the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company issued new stock awards as follows:

Restricted Performance Stock Rights - For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company granted approximately 0.1 million RPSRs at a weighted average share price of $219.47. These rights are subject to cliff vesting on December 31, 2019. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company granted approximately 0.2 million RPSRs at a weighted average share price of $131.77. These rights are subject to cliff vesting on December 31, 2018. The RPSRs are subject to the achievement of performance-based targets at the end of the respective vesting periods. Based upon the Company's results measured against such targets, between 0% and 200% of the original stated grants are expected to ultimately vest.

For the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, 0.4 million and 0.8 million stock awards vested, respectively, of which approximately 0.2 million and 0.3 million, respectively, were transferred to the Company from employees in satisfaction of minimum tax withholding obligations.

Item 2.    Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

OVERVIEW

Our Business

Huntington Ingalls Industries, Inc. ("HII", the "Company", "we", "us", or "our") is one of America’s largest military shipbuilding companies and a provider of professional services to partners in government and industry. For more than a century, our Ingalls and Newport News segments in Mississippi and Virginia have built more ships in more ship classes than any other U.S. naval shipbuilder. Our Technical Solutions segment was established in December 2016 and provides a wide range of professional services, including fleet support, integrated mission solutions, and nuclear and environmental and oil and gas services.

We conduct most of our business with the U.S. Government, principally the DoD. As prime contractor, principal subcontractor, team member, or partner, we participate in many high-priority U.S. defense technology programs. Ingalls includes our non-nuclear ship design, construction, repair, and maintenance businesses. Newport News includes all of our nuclear ship design, construction, overhaul, refueling, and repair and maintenance businesses. We also provide a range of services to the governmental, energy, and oil and gas markets through our Technical Solutions segment.

The following discussion should be read along with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Business Environment

In August 2011, the Budget Control Act (the "BCA") established limits on U.S. Government discretionary spending, including a reduction of defense spending by approximately $487 billion for fiscal years 2012 through 2021. The BCA also provided that the defense budget would face “sequestration” cuts of up to an additional $500 billion during that same period, to the extent that discretionary spending limits are exceeded, and $500 billion for non-defense discretionary spending, including the U.S. Coast Guard.

The Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015 (the "BBA 2015") provided sequestration relief for fiscal years 2016 and 2017, but sequestration remains in effect for fiscal years 2018 through 2021. Long-term uncertainty remains with respect to overall levels of defense spending, and it is likely that U.S. Government discretionary spending levels will continue to be subject to significant pressure despite the President's January 2017 executive order indicating the new Administration's desire to increase investment in readiness and modernization.

While we are encouraged that an Omnibus Appropriations package for fiscal year 2017 has been finalized and that the President's Budget Request for 2018 continues to fund key shipbuilding programs, we cannot predict the impact that sequestration cuts or reprioritization of readiness and modernization investment may have on funding for our individual programs. Long-term funding for certain programs in which we participate may be reduced, delayed, or canceled. In addition, spending cuts and/or reprioritization of defense investment could adversely affect the viability of our suppliers and subcontractors and employee base. Our contracts or subcontracts under programs in which we participate may be terminated or adjusted by the U.S. Government or the prime contractor as a result of lack of government funding or reductions or delays in government funding. Significant reductions in the number of ships procured by the U.S. Navy or significant delays in funding our ship programs would have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

The budget environment, including sequestration as currently mandated, remains a significant long-term risk. Considerable uncertainty exists regarding how future budget and program decisions will develop and what

20

Table of Contents

challenges budget changes will present for the defense industry. We believe continued budget pressures that result from sequestration will have serious negative consequences for the security of our country, the defense industrial base, including us, and the customers, employees, suppliers, subcontractors, investors, and communities that rely on companies in the defense industrial base. Although it is difficult to determine specific impacts, we expect that over the longer term, the budget environment may result in fewer contract awards and lower revenues, profits, and cash flows from our U.S. Government contracts. Congress and the new Administration continue to discuss various options to address sequestration in future budget planning, but we cannot predict the outcome of these efforts. It is likely budget and program decisions made in this environment will have long-term impacts on us and the entire defense industry.

Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates, and Judgments

As discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, we consider the policies relating to the following matters to be critical accounting policies:

Revenue recognition;

Purchase accounting, goodwill, and intangible assets;

Litigation, commitments, and contingencies;

Retirement related benefit plans; and

Workers' compensation.

Most of our revenues are derived from long-term contracts for the production of goods and services provided to the federal government, which are accounted for in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for construction-type and production-type contracts and federal government contractors. We also have other types of contracts, such as services or commercial arrangements, for which revenues are recognized upon delivery or as services are rendered once persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured. Costs related to these contracts are expensed as incurred.

As of June 30, 2017, there had been no material changes to the foregoing critical accounting policies, estimates, and judgments since December 31, 2016.

Contracts

We generate most of our revenues from long-term U.S. Government contracts for design, production, and support activities. Government contracts typically include the following cost elements: direct material, labor and subcontracting costs, and certain indirect costs, including allowable general and administrative expenses. Unless otherwise specified in a contract, costs billed to contracts with the U.S. Government are treated as allowable and allocable costs under the Federal Acquisition Regulation ("FAR") and the U.S. Cost Accounting Standards ("CAS") regulations. Examples of costs incurred by us that are not allowable under the FAR and CAS regulations include certain legal costs, lobbying costs, charitable donations, interest expense, and advertising costs.

We monitor our policies and procedures with respect to our contracts on a regular basis to ensure consistent application under similar terms and conditions, as well as compliance with all applicable government regulations. In addition, the Defense Contract Audit Agency routinely audits the costs we incur that are allocated to contracts with the U.S. Government.

Our long-term contracts typically fall into one of two broad categories:

Flexibly-Priced Contracts - Includes both cost-type and fixed-price incentive contracts. Cost-type contracts provide for reimbursement of the contractor's allowable costs plus a fee that represents profit. Cost-type contracts generally require that the contractor use its reasonable efforts to accomplish the scope of the work within some specified time and some stated dollar limitation. Fixed-price incentive contracts also provide for reimbursement of the contractor's allowable costs, but are subject to a cost-share limit that affects profitability. Fixed-price incentive contracts effectively become firm fixed-price contracts once the

21

Table of Contents

cost-share limit is reached. Approximately 94% and 97% of our revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, were generated from flexibly-priced contracts, including certain fixed-price incentive contracts that have exceeded their cost-share limit. Approximately 93% and 98% of our revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, were generated from flexibly-priced contracts, including certain fixed-price incentive contracts that have exceeded their cost-share limit.

Firm Fixed-Price Contracts - A firm fixed-price contract is a contract in which the specified scope of work is agreed to for a price that is predetermined by bid or negotiation and not generally subject to adjustment regardless of costs incurred by the contractor. Time and materials contracts, which specify a fixed hourly rate for each labor hour charged, are considered firm fixed-price contracts. Approximately 6% and 3% of our revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, were generated from firm fixed-price arrangements. Approximately 7% and 2% of our revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, were generated from firm fixed-price arrangements.

Contract Fees - Negotiated contract fee structures for both flexibly-priced and firm fixed-price contracts include: fixed fee amounts, cost sharing arrangements to reward or penalize contractors for under or over cost target performance, respectively, positive award fees, and negative penalty arrangements. Profit margins may vary materially depending on the negotiated contract fee arrangements, percentage-of-completion of the contract, the achievement of performance objectives, and the stage of performance at which the right to receive fees, particularly under incentive and award fee contracts, is finally determined.

Award Fees - Certain contracts contain award fees based on performance criteria such as cost, schedule, quality, and technical performance. Award fees are determined and earned based on an evaluation by the customer of our performance against such negotiated criteria. Fees that we are reasonably assured of collecting and can be reasonably estimated are recorded over the performance period of the contract.

Operating Performance Assessment and Reporting

We manage and assess the performance of our business based on our performance on individual contracts and programs using the financial measures referred to below, with consideration given to the Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates, and Judgments referred to in this section. Our portfolio of long-term contracts is primarily flexibly-priced. Therefore, sales tend to fluctuate in concert with costs across our large portfolio of active contracts,

Table of Contents

with operating income being a critical measure of operating performance. Under FAR rules that govern our business with the U.S. Government, most types of costs are allowable, and we do not focus on individual cost groupings, such as cost of sales or general and administrative expenses, as much as we do on total contract costs, which are a key factor in determining contract operating income. As a result, in evaluating our operating performance, we look primarily at changes in sales and service revenues, as well as operating income, including the effects of significant changes in operating income as a result of changes in contract estimates and the use of the cumulative catch-up method of accounting in accordance with GAAP. This approach is consistent with the long-term life cycle of our contracts, as management assesses the bidding of each contract by focusing on net sales and operating profit and monitors performance in a similar manner through contract completion. Consequently, our discussion of business segment performance focuses on net sales and operating profit, consistent with our approach for managing our business.

Cost of sales for both product sales and service revenues consists of materials, labor, and subcontracting costs, as well as an allocation of indirect costs for overhead. We manage the type and amount of costs at the contract level, which is the basis for estimating our total costs at completion of our contracts. Unusual fluctuations in operating performance driven by changes in a specific cost element across multiple contracts are described in our analysis.

Cost of Product Sales

Cost of product sales for the three months ended June 30, 2017, increased $61 million, or 6%, compared with the same period in 2016. Cost of product sales for the six months ended June 30, 2017, decreased $8 million, compared with the same period in 2016. Ingalls cost of product sales increased $57 million and $40 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, primarily as a result of lower risk retirement in the San Antonio class (LPD 17) program, following delivery of USS John P. Murtha (LPD 26) in 2016, as well as the volume changes described above, partially offset by higher risk retirement on Tripoli (LHA 7) and the Legend class NSC program. Newport News cost of product sales increased $5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, primarily as a result of lower risk retirement in the Virginia class (SSN 774) submarine program, partially offset by the volume changes described above. Newport News cost of product sales decreased $10 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017, primarily as a result of the volume changes described above, partially offset by lower risk retirement in the Virginia class (SSN 774) submarine program. Technical Solutions cost of product sales for the three months ended June 30, 2017, was consistent with the same period in 2016. Technical Solutions cost of product sales decreased $38 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017, primarily due to the resolution in 2016 of outstanding contract changes on a nuclear and environmental commercial contract, partially offset by the establishment of an allowance for accounts receivable on a nuclear and environmental commercial contract in 2017.

Cost of product sales as a percentage of product sales increased from 76.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2016, to 79.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2017. This increase was primarily due to lower risk retirement in the San Antonio class (LPD 17) program, following delivery of USS John P. Murtha (LPD 26) in 2016, and the Virginia class (SSN 774) submarine program, partially offset by higher risk retirement in the Legend class NSC program and on Tripoli (LHA 7). Cost of product sales as a percentage of product sales increased from 78.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2016, to 80.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2017. This increase was primarily due to lower risk retirement in the San Antonio class (LPD 17) program, following delivery of USS John P. Murtha (LPD 26) in 2016, and the Virginia class (SSN 774) submarine program, as well as the establishment of an allowance for accounts receivable on a nuclear and environmental commercial contract in 2017, partially offset by higher risk retirement in the Legend class NSC program and on Tripoli (LHA 7).

Cost of Service Revenues

Cost of service revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2017, increased $95 million, or 33%, compared with the same period in 2016. Cost of service revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2017, increased $169 million, or 29%, compared with the same period in 2016. Ingalls cost of service revenues increased $4 million and $6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, primarily as a result of the higher volumes described above. Newport News cost of service revenues increased $6 million and $3 million for the three and six

months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, primarily as a result of the volume changes described above. Technical Solutions cost of service revenues increased $85 million and $160 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, primarily due to the higher volumes described above.

Cost of service revenues as a percentage of service revenues decreased from 86.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2016, to 83.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2017, primarily driven by improved performance in oil and gas services and year-to-year variances in contract mix. Cost of service revenues as a percentage of service revenues decreased from 86.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2016, to 84.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2017, primarily driven by improved performance in oil and gas services and year-to-year variances in contract mix.

Income (Loss) from Operating Investments, Net

The activities of our operating investments are closely aligned with the operations of the segments holding the investments. We therefore record income related to earnings from equity method investments in our operating income.

Income from operating investments, net for the three months ended June 30, 2017, was consistent with the same period in 2016. Income from operating investments, net for the six months ended June 30, 2017, increased $2 million, compared with the same period in 2016, as a result of higher equity income from our Savannah River Nuclear Solutions, LLC investment.

General and Administrative Expenses

In accordance with industry practice and the regulations that govern the cost accounting requirements for government contracts, most general and administrative expenses are considered allowable and allocable costs on government contracts. These costs are allocated to contracts in progress on a systematic basis and contract performance factors include this cost component as an element of cost.

General and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, decreased $18 million and $26 million, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2016, primarily driven by favorable changes in the FAS/CAS Adjustment and lower non-current state income tax expense, partially offset by higher current state income tax expense.

Operating Income

We consider operating income to be an important measure for evaluating our operating performance, and, as is typical in the industry, we define operating income as revenues less the related cost of producing the revenues and general and administrative expenses.

We internally manage our operations by reference to "segment operating income," which is defined as operating income before the FAS/CAS Adjustment and non-current state income taxes, neither of which affects segment performance because neither is an allowable cost under our contracts with the U.S. Government. Segment operating income is not a recognized measure under GAAP.  When analyzing our operating performance, investors should use segment operating income in addition to, and not as an alternative for, operating income or any other performance measure presented in accordance with GAAP. It is a measure we use to evaluate our core operating performance.  We believe segment operating income reflects an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations that, when viewed with our GAAP results, provides a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. We believe the measure is used by investors and is a useful indicator to measure our performance. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of segment operating income may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Segment Operating Income

Segment operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2017, was $187 million, an increase of $3 million from the same period in 2016. The increase was primarily due to higher risk retirement on Tripoli (LHA 7) and the Legend class NSC program, as well as improved performance in oil and gas services, partially offset by lower risk retirement on USS John P. Murtha (LPD 26) and the Virginia class (SSN 774) submarine program. Segment operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2017, was $307 million, a decrease of $43 million from the same period in 2016. The decrease was primarily due to lower risk retirement on the delivered USS John P. Murtha (LPD 26) and the Virginia class (SSN 774) submarine program, as well as the establishment of an allowance for accounts receivable on a nuclear and environmental commercial contract in 2017, partially offset by higher risk retirement on the Legend class NSC program and Tripoli (LHA 7), as well as improved performance in oil and gas services.

Activity within each segment is discussed in Segment Operating Results below.

The FAS/CAS Adjustment was a net benefit of $49 million and $35 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The FAS/CAS Adjustment was a net benefit of $98 million and $70 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The favorable changes in the FAS/CAS Adjustment of $14 million and $28 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2016, were driven by the continued phase-in of Harmonization.

Non-current State Income Taxes

Non-current state income taxes include deferred state income taxes, which reflect the change in deferred state tax assets and liabilities, and the tax expense or benefit associated with changes in state uncertain tax positions in the relevant period. These amounts are recorded within operating income. Current period state income tax expense is charged to contract costs and included in cost of sales and service revenues in segment operating income.

Non-current state income tax benefit for the three months ended June 30, 2017, was $1 million, compared to a non-current state income tax expense of $2 million for the same period in 2016. Non-current state income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2017, was $4 million, compared to a non-current state income tax expense of $5

million for the same period in 2016. The decreases in non-current state income tax expense were primarily attributable to changes in pension related adjustments.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, decreased $1 million and $2 million, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2016.

Federal and Foreign Income Taxes

Our effective tax rate on earnings from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2017, was 32.6%, compared with 33.2% for the same period in 2016. Our effective tax rate on earnings from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2017, was 27.1%, compared with 28.5% for the same period in 2016. The lower effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2017, was primarily attributable to an increase in the domestic manufacturing deduction. The lower effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2017, was primarily attributable to an increase in the domestic manufacturing deduction and an increase in income tax benefits associated with stock award settlement activity. Our effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, differed from the federal statutory rate primarily as a result of the income tax benefits resulting from stock award settlement activity and the domestic manufacturing deduction. See Note 12: Income Taxes and Note 17: Stock Compensation Plans.

KEY SEGMENT FINANCIAL MEASURES

Sales and Service Revenues

Period-to-period revenues reflect performance under new and ongoing contracts. Changes in sales and service revenues are typically expressed in terms of volume. Unless otherwise described, volume generally refers to increases (or decreases) in reported revenues due to varying production activity levels, delivery rates, or service levels on individual contracts. Volume changes will typically carry a corresponding income change based on the margin rate for a particular contract.

Segment Operating Income

Segment operating income reflects the aggregate performance results of contracts within a segment. Excluded from this measure are certain costs not directly associated with contract performance, including the FAS/CAS Adjustment and non-current state income taxes. Changes in segment operating income are typically expressed in terms of volume, as discussed above, or performance. Performance refers to changes in contract margin rates. These changes typically relate to profit recognition associated with revisions to total estimated costs at completion ("EAC") of the contract that reflect improved (or deteriorated) operating performance on a particular contract. Operating income changes are accounted for on a cumulative to date basis at the time an EAC change is recorded. Segment operating income may be affected by, among other things, contract performance, the effects of workforce stoppages, the effects of natural disasters such as hurricanes, resolution of disputed items with the customer, recovery of insurance proceeds, and other discrete events. At the completion of a long-term contract, any originally estimated costs not incurred or reserves not fully utilized, such as warranty reserves, could also impact contract earnings. Where such items have occurred and the effects are material, a separate description is provided.

Sales and Service Revenues

Ingalls revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2017, increased $54 million, or 9%, from the same period in 2016, primarily driven by higher revenues in amphibious assault ships and the Legend class NSC program. Amphibious assault ships revenues increased due to higher volumes on Fort Lauderdale (LPD 28), Bougainville (LHA 8), and Tripoli (LHA 7), partially offset by lower volume on the delivered USS John P. Murtha (LPD 26). Revenues on the Legend class NSC program increased due to higher volumes on Stone (NSC 9) and Kimball (NSC 7), partially offset by lower volume on the delivered USCGC Munro (NSC 6). Surface combatants revenues remained relatively constant due to lower volumes on USS John Finn (DDG 113), delivered in 2016, and Frank E. Petersen Jr. (DDG 121), offset by higher volumes on Lenah H. Sutcliffe Higbee (DDG 123) and Jack H. Lucas (DDG 125).

Ingalls revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2017, increased $18 million, or 2%, from the same period in 2016, primarily driven by higher revenues in the Legend class NSC program, partially offset by lower revenues in surface combatants and amphibious assault ships. Revenues on the Legend class NSC program increased due to higher volumes on Stone (NSC 9), Kimball (NSC 7), and Midgett (NSC 8), partially offset by lower volume on the delivered USCGC Munro (NSC 6). Surface combatants revenues decreased due to lower volumes on Frank E. Petersen Jr. (DDG 121), Ralph Johnson (DDG 114), Delbert D. Black (DDG 119), and the delivered USS John Finn (DDG 113), partially offset by higher volumes on Lenah H. Sutcliffe Higbee (DDG 123), Jack H. Lucas (DDG 125), and the USS Ramage (DDG 61) extended selected restricted availability contract. Amphibious assault ships revenues decreased as a result of lower volume on the delivered USS John P. Murtha (LPD 26), partially offset by higher volumes on Fort Lauderdale (LPD 28), Bougainville (LHA 8), and Tripoli (LHA 7).

Segment Operating Income

Ingalls segment operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2017, was $98 million, compared with $88 million for the same period in 2016. The increase was primarily due to higher risk retirement on Tripoli (LHA 7) and the Legend class NSC program, partially offset by lower risk retirement on the delivered USS John P. Murtha (LPD 26).

Segment Operating Income

Technical Solutions segment operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2017, was $9 million, compared with a loss of $2 million for the same period in 2016. The increase was primarily due to improved performance in oil and gas services, higher volume in integrated mission solutions services following the acquisition of Camber, and a decrease in the allowance for accounts receivable on a nuclear and environmental commercial contract.

Technical Solutions segment operating loss for the six months ended June 30, 2017, was $9 million, compared with income of $1 million for the same period in 2016. The decrease was primarily due to the establishment of an allowance for accounts receivable on a nuclear and environmental commercial contract in 2017 and the resolution in 2016 of outstanding contract changes on a nuclear and environmental commercial contract, partially offset by improved performance in oil and gas services and higher volume in integrated mission solutions services following the acquisition of Camber.

BACKLOG

Total backlog as of each of June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, was approximately $21 billion. Total backlog includes both funded backlog (firm orders for which funding is contractually obligated by the customer) and unfunded backlog (firm orders for which funding is not currently contractually obligated by the customer). Backlog excludes unexercised contract options and unfunded Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity orders. For contracts having no stated contract values, backlog includes only the amounts committed by the customer.

The following table presents funded and unfunded backlog by segment as of June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016

As a result of integration efforts following the acquisition of Camber, the Company corrected the Technical Solutions segment's total backlog and unfunded backlog as of December 31, 2016, reducing the balances by $289 million.

Approximately 31% of the $21 billion total backlog as of December 31, 2016, is expected to be converted into sales in 2017. U.S. Government orders comprised substantially all of the total backlog as of June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016.

Awards

The value of new contract awards during the six months ended June 30, 2017, was approximately $4 billion. Significant new awards during this period included the detailed design and construction of Bougainville (LHA-8).

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We endeavor to ensure the most efficient conversion of operating results into cash for deployment in operating our businesses and maximizing stockholder value. We use various financial measures to assist in capital deployment decision making, including net cash provided by operating activities and free cash flow. We believe these measures are useful to investors in assessing our financial performance.

Cash Flows

We discuss below our major operating, investing, and financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, as classified on our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017, was $284 million, compared with $223 million provided by operating activities for the same period in 2016. The favorable change in operating cash flow was primarily due to the timing of funding retiree benefit plans and lower payments for income taxes, partially offset by a change in trade working capital. The change in trade working capital was primarily driven by the timing of receipts and payments of accounts receivable and accounts payable, respectively.

For the six months ended June 30, 2017, we made discretionary contributions to our qualified defined benefit pension plans totaling $91 million, compared with $167 million of discretionary contributions for the same period in 2016. As of June 30, 2017, we expect our 2017 cash contributions to our qualified defined benefit pension plans to be $294 million, substantially all of which will be discretionary.

We expect cash generated from operations in combination with our current cash and cash equivalents, as well as existing credit facilities, to be more than sufficient to service debt, meet contractual obligations, and finance capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017, was $133 million, compared with $81 million used in investing activities for the same period in 2016. The increase in investing cash used was driven by higher capital expenditures in 2017. For 2017, we expect our capital expenditures for maintenance and sustainment to be approximately 2% to 2.5% and our discretionary capital expenditures to be approximately 2.5% to 3% of annual revenues.

Financing Activities

Cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017, was $318 million, compared with $184 million used in the same period in 2016. The increase in cash used was primarily due to an additional $121 million of common stock repurchases, an additional $7 million of cash dividend payments, and an additional $6 million of employee taxes on certain share-based payment arrangements.

Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow represents cash provided by (used in) operating activities less capital expenditures. Free cash flow is not a measure recognized under GAAP. Free cash flow has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. We believe free

32

Table of Contents

cash flow is an important measure for our investors because it provides them insight into our current and period-to-period performance and our ability to generate cash from continuing operations. We also 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. Free cash flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Free cash flow for the six months ended June 30, 2017, increased $9 million compared with the same period in 2016, primarily due to a decrease in funding of retiree benefit plans and lower payments for income taxes, partially offset by a change in trade working capital and higher capital expenditures.

Governmental Regulation and Supervision

The U.S. Government has the ability, pursuant to regulations relating to contractor business systems, to decrease or withhold contract payments if it determines significant deficiencies exist in one or more such systems. As of June 30, 2017 and 2016, the cumulative amounts of payments withheld by the U.S. Government under our contracts subject to these regulations were not material to our liquidity or cash flows.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In the ordinary course of business, we use standby letters of credit issued by commercial banks and surety bonds issued by insurance companies principally to support our self-insured workers' compensation plans. As of June 30, 2017, we had $15 million in standby letters of credit issued but undrawn and $258 million of surety bonds outstanding.

GLOSSARY OF PROGRAMS
 
Included below are brief descriptions of some of the programs discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Program Name
  
Program Description
 
 
America class (LHA 6) amphibious assault ships
  
Design and build large deck amphibious assault ships that provide forward presence and power projection as an integral part of joint, interagency and multinational maritime expeditionary forces. The America class (LHA 6) ships, together with the Wasp class (LHD 1) ships, are the successors to the decommissioned Tarawa class (LHA 1) ships. The America class (LHA 6) ships optimize aviation operations and support capabilities. We delivered USS America (LHA 6) in April 2014, Tripoli (LHA 7) is currently under construction, and we were awarded a construction contract for Bougainville (LHA 8) in 2017.
 
 
 
Arleigh Burke class (DDG 51) destroyers
  
Build guided missile destroyers designed for conducting anti-air, anti-submarine, anti-surface, and strike operations. The Aegis-equipped Arleigh Burke class (DDG 51) destroyers are the U.S. Navy's primary surface combatant, and have been constructed in variants, allowing technological advances during construction. In 2016 we delivered USS John Finn (DDG 113), and we are currently constructing Ralph Johnson (DDG 114). In June 2013, we were awarded a multi-year contract for construction of five additional Arleigh Burke class (DDG 51) destroyers: Paul Ignatius (DDG 117), Delbert D. Black (DDG 119), Frank E. Petersen Jr. (DDG 121), Lenah H. Sutcliffe Higbee (DDG 123), and Jack H. Lucas (DDG 125).
 
 
 
Carrier RCOH

  
Perform refueling and complex overhaul ("RCOH") of nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, which is required at the mid-point of their 50-year life cycle. USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN 72) was redelivered to the U.S. Navy in the second quarter of 2017 and advance planning efforts for USS George Washington (CVN 73) are in process in preparation for the expected start of its RCOH in 2017.
 
 
 
Columbia class (SSBN 826) submarines
 
The U.S. Navy has committed to designing the Columbia class (SSBN 826) submarine as a replacement for the current aging Ohio class nuclear ballistic missile submarines, which were first introduced into service in 1981. The Ohio class SSBN includes 14 nuclear ballistic missile submarines and four nuclear cruise missile submarines. The Columbia class (SSBN 826) program currently anticipates 12 new ballistic missile submarines. The U.S. Navy has initiated the design process for the new class of submarines, and, in early 2017, the DOD signed the acquisition decision memorandum approving the Columbia class (SSBN 826) program’s Milestone B, which formally authorizes the program’s entry into the engineering and manufacturing development phase. We continue to perform design work as a subcontractor to Electric Boat, and we have entered into a team agreement with Electric Boat to build modules for the entire Columbia class (SSBN 826) submarine program that leverages our Virginia class (SSN 774) experience. The team agreement is subject to the U.S. Navy's concurrence. Construction of the first Columbia class (SSBN 826) submarine is expected to begin in 2021, with procurement of long-lead-time materials and advance construction beginning prior to that time.
