Commentary on the Three Months Ended December 29, 2023

Revenues were $1.7 billion, up 8% (organic) compared to 4Q'22, primarily due to new and on-contract growth across Defense & Intel, Science & Space, and International within Government Solutions and growing demand broadly across Sustainable Technology Solutions.

Net income attributable to KBR was $21 million, down $72 million compared to 4Q'22, primarily due to a non-cash charge of $40 million recorded in connection with the convertible notes settlement method election made in 2Q'23 and a charge of $26 million recorded in connection with the settlement of warrants (discussed below).

Net income attributable to KBR ex-Nonrecurring Charges2 was $87 million, down $6 million compared to 4Q'22, primarily due to increases in gross profit offset by higher interest expense, foreign exchange gains that did not recur in 2023, and higher provision for income taxes due to credits that did not recur in 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA2 was $188 million, up 20% compared to 4Q'22, with Adjusted EBITDA2 margins of 10.9%, up 110 bps over 4Q'22.

Diluted earnings per share were in line with the decrease in Net income attributable to KBR. Adjusted earnings per share2 remained flat primarily because the decrease in Net income attributable to KBR ex-Nonrecurring Charges2 was offset by the reduction in Adjusted weighted average common shares outstanding due to repurchases and the cash settlement of warrants.

Operating cash flows were $83 million, up 38% compared to 4Q'22. Adjusted operating cash flows were $83 million, down 6% compared to 4Q'22.

Commentary on the Year Ended December 29, 2023

Revenues were $7.0 billion, up 6% (organic) compared to FY22. Revenue ex-OAW2 (organic) increased $705 million, or 11%, due to new and on-contract growth across all Government Solutions business units and growing demand across Sustainable Technology Solutions.

See additional information at the end of this release regarding non-GAAP financial information, including reconciliations to the nearest GAAP measures.

3    

Net income attributable to KBR was $(265) million, down $455 million compared to FY22, primarily due to a current year charge of $494 million recorded in connection with the convertible notes settlement method election made in 2Q'23 and repurchase and termination of the convertible notes, note hedge and warrants (discussed below) and after-tax cash charge of $132 million in connection with the settlement of a legacy legal matter, partially offset by non-cash charge of $137 million in equity in earnings related to the resolution of a subcontractor dispute that did not recur in FY23.

Net income attributable to KBR ex-Nonrecurring Charges2 was $361 million, up $34 million compared to FY22, primarily due to increases in gross profit and equity in earnings from unconsolidated affiliates partially offset by increases in selling, general and administrative expenses, interest expense, higher provision for income taxes due to credits that did not recur in FY23, as well as prior year gains on sale of non-core assets and unrealized gain on other investment that did not recur in FY23.

Adjusted EBITDA2 was $747 million, up 12% compared to FY22, with Adjusted EBITDA2 margins of 10.7%, up 56 bps.

Diluted earnings per share were in line with the decrease in Net income attributable to KBR and the reduction in Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding. Adjusted earnings per share2 increased in line with Net income attributable to KBR ex-Nonrecurring Charges2 and the reduction in Adjusted weighted average common shares outstanding due to repurchases and the cash settlement of warrants.

Operating cash flows were $331 million, down 16% compared to FY22 due to the after-tax cash charge of $132 million in connection with the settlement of a legacy legal matter. Adjusted operating cash flows2 were $463 million, up 9% compared to FY22, primarily due to increased Net income attributable to KBR ex-Nonrecurring Charges2.

Capital returned to shareholders totaled $210 million during the year to date period, consisting of $138 million in share repurchases, inclusive of $125 million of open market repurchases and $13 million of repurchases to satisfy requirements of equity compensation plans, and $72 million in regular dividends.

On February 19, 2024, the Board of Directors approved an increase of our quarterly regular dividend from $0.135 per share to $0.15 per share effective for the record date and payment date of the next scheduled distribution on March 15, 2024 and April 15, 2024, respectively. This represents the fifth successive year of dividend increases, representing an 11% increase from the previous regular dividend amount.

Additionally, on February 19, 2024, the Board of Directors authorized replenishment of our share repurchase authorization to $500 million.

Cash Settlement Method Election and Repurchase of Convertible Notes

During 4Q'23, KBR settled the remaining convertible notes in cash, settled the corresponding note hedge and also entered into agreements with the option counterparties to settle the remaining warrants in cash. These agreements resulted in the warrants no longer qualifying for the equity scope exception under ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging, and as a result, the warrants required fair value measurement between the initial recognition date (agreement date) and settlement date for each counterparty.

Due to the cash settlement method election, the repurchase and settlement of the convertible notes, and the termination of the corresponding portions of the note hedge and warrants in FY23, we recorded a loss of $494 million, of which $40 million was recorded in the current quarter, in relation to the accretion of convertible notes debt discount and $26 million was recorded in the current quarter in connection with the cash settlement of warrants. These amounts are not tax deductible and have been added back to Adjusted EBITDA2 and Adjusted EPS2. No warrants were outstanding as of December 29, 2023.

Refer to Note 22 "Cash Election and Repurchase of Convertible Notes and Warrant Unwind Agreements" in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2023 for further details.

Subsequent Event

In connection with the cash settlement of warrants in 4Q'23, the company remitted $33 million to the final option counterparty in January 2024. In total, the company paid $600 million (net) to retire the $350 million principal value of convertible notes, note hedge and corresponding warrants.

Fiscal 2024 Guidance

The table below summarizes FY24 guidance and represents our views as of February 20, 2024.

	Fiscal 2024 Guidance
Revenue	$7.4B - $7.7B
Adjusted EBITDA	$810M - $850M
Diluted EPS*	$2.89 - $3.09
Adjusted EPS*	$3.10 - $3.30
Operating cash flows	$450M - $480M

* Fiscal 2024 Diluted and Adjusted EPS guidance is calculated using a share count of approximately 135 million.

The company does not provide a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the most comparable GAAP financial measure on a forward-looking basis because the company is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of legal proceedings, unusual gains and losses, and acquisition-related expenses without unreasonable effort, which could be material to the company’s results computed in accordance with GAAP.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

We evaluate performance based on EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA is defined as Net income (loss) attributable to KBR, plus interest expense; Accretion of Convertible Notes debt discounts; Other non-operating expense; Provision for income taxes; and Depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain amounts included in EBITDA. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for each of the three- and twelve-month periods ended December 29, 2023 and December 31, 2022 are considered non-GAAP financial measures under SEC rules because EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA exclude certain amounts included in the calculation of net income (loss) attributable to KBR in accordance with GAAP for such periods. Management believes EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA afford investors a view of what management considers KBR's core performance for each of the three- and twelve-month periods ended December 29, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and also affords investors the ability to make a more informed assessment of such core performance for the comparable periods.

Adjusted EPS

Adjusted earnings per share (Adjusted EPS) for each of the three- and twelve-month periods ended December 29, 2023 and December 31, 2022 is considered a non-GAAP financial measure under SEC rules because Adjusted EPS excludes certain amounts included in the Diluted EPS calculated in accordance with GAAP for such periods. The most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP is Diluted EPS for the same periods. Management believes that Adjusted EPS affords investors a view of what management considers KBR's core earnings performance for each of the three- and twelve-month periods ended December 29, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and also affords investors the ability to make a more informed assessment of such core earnings performance for the comparable periods.

We have calculated Adjusted EPS for each of the three- and twelve-month periods ended December 29, 2023 and December 31, 2022 by adjusting Diluted EPS for the items included in the table below.

Adjusted Cash Flows Provided by Operating Activities and Adjusted Free Cash Flows

Adjusted operating cash flows and Adjusted free cash flows are considered non-GAAP financial measures under SEC rules. Adjusted operating cash flows exclude certain amounts included in the cash flows provided by operating activities calculated in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted free cash flows exclude capital expenditures from Adjusted operating cash flows. The most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP is cash flows provided by operating activities. Management believes that Adjusted operating cash flows and Adjusted free cash flows afford investors a view of what management considers KBR's core operating cash flow performance and also afford investors the ability to make a more informed assessment of such core operating cash generation performance.

We have calculated Adjusted operating cash flows and Adjusted free cash flows for each of the three- and twelve-month periods ended December 29, 2023 and December 31, 2022 by adjusting operating cash flow provided by operating activities for items included in the table below.

Revenue ex-OAW and Net Income Attributable to KBR ex-Nonrecurring Charges

Revenue ex-OAW and Net income attributable to KBR ex-Nonrecurring Charges are considered non-GAAP financial measures under SEC rules. Revenue ex-OAW excludes amounts related to contingency work associated with the OAW program that was wound down and substantially completed in early FY22 from GAAP revenue. Net income attributable to KBR ex-Nonrecurring Charges excludes certain amounts related to charges that we believe are special (e.g., certain legacy legal settlements) or one-time in nature (e.g., relating to the settlement method of our Convertible Notes and the settlement of the related warrants) from GAAP Net income attributable to KBR. Management believes that Revenue ex-OAW affords investors a more consistent comparison of KBR’s revenue year-over-year and, and that Net income attributable to KBR ex-Nonrecurring Charges affords investors a view of what management considers KBR's core Net income attributable to KBR and also affords investors the ability to make a more informed assessment of such core net income performance.

We have calculated Revenue ex-OAW and Net Income Attributable to KBR ex-Nonrecurring Charges for each of the three- and twelve-month periods ended December 29, 2023 and December 31, 2022 by adjusting revenue and net income, respectively, for items included in the table below.
