Quarterly Report for Quarter Ending 09/30/2025 (Form 10-Q)
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
OVERVIEW
Our Business
Huntington Ingalls Industries, Inc. ("HII", "we", "us", or "our") is a global, all-domain defense partner, building and delivering the world's most powerful, survivable naval ships and technologies that safeguard America's seas, sky, land, space, and cyber. For more than a century, our Ingalls Shipbuilding segment ("Ingalls") in Mississippi and Newport News Shipbuilding segment ("Newport News") in Virginia have built more ships in more ship classes than any other U.S. naval shipbuilder, making us America's largest shipbuilder. Our Mission Technologies segment develops integrated technology solutions and products that enable today's connected, all-domain force. Headquartered in Newport News, Virginia, we employ approximately 44,000 people domestically and internationally.
We conduct most of our business with the U.S. Government, primarily the Department of War (the "Department"). As prime contractor, principal subcontractor, team member, or partner, we participate in many high-priority U.S. defense 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. Our Mission Technologies segment is organized into four groups, All-Domain Operations, Warfare Systems, Global Security, and Uncrewed Systems, and specializes in a wide range of services and products across our capabilities, which include command, control, computers, communications, cyber, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance ("C5ISR") systems and operations; the application of artificial intelligence and machine learning to battlefield decisions; defensive and offensive cyber, electronic warfare & space; unmanned systems; live, virtual, and constructive training solutions; fleet sustainment; and critical nuclear operations.
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, 2024 (our "2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K").
Business Environment
The federal budget environment remains a significant long-term risk, and we continue to see uncertainty in the economy, our industry, and our company. Our customers and suppliers continue to face challenges, and we believe continued budget pressures could have serious implications for defense discretionary spending, the defense industrial base, including HII, and the customers, employees, suppliers, subcontractors, investors, and communities that rely on companies in the defense industrial base. We cannot clearly predict how long these challenges will
continue, whether these challenges will change over time, or whether our actions to address these challenges will be successful.
Defense Spending Environment - On May 2, 2025, the Trump Administration released the President's topline recommendations on discretionary funding levels for fiscal year 2026, followed by detailed budget justification documents in June. Additionally, under the Public Law 119-21 (the "Act"), Congress provided mandatory funding for more than $29 billion for Shipbuilding and the Maritime Industrial Base. This funding included one Virginiaclass (SSN 774) fast attack submarine and two Arleigh-Burkeclass (DDG 51) guided-missile destroyers, and provided additional funding for amphibious warfare ships and unmanned surface vessels.
Lawmakers continue to consider the annual budget request for the federal government. The U.S. House of Representatives approved a fiscal year 2026 defense appropriations measure in July, and the U.S. Senate Committee on Appropriations advanced its defense appropriations measure out of committee in July. The House and Senate Committees on Armed Services acted on their respective National Defense Authorization bills for fiscal year 2026, with the House approving the authorization bill in September and the Senate approving the authorization bill in October.
Fiscal year 2026 began on October 1, 2025 without annual appropriations legislation or a continuing resolution. As a result, many parts of the U.S. Government temporarily shut down. This lapse in federal funding leaves the federal government sustaining only those activities that are determined to be excepted or funded through means other than fiscal year 2026 annual appropriations.
Prior to the lapse in appropriations, the Department identified those missions and functions of the Department deemed high priority, including shipbuilding, that may continue through the use of available funds in the absence of new annual appropriations. Funds that remain available include those provided for certain shipbuilding programs under the Act.
According to Department guidance, "The expiration of an appropriation does not require the termination of contracts (or issuance of stop work orders) funded by that appropriation unless a new obligation of funds is required under the contract and the contract is not required to support an excepted activity." "The Department may continue to enter into new contracts, or place task orders under existing contracts, to obtain supplies and services necessary to carry out or support excepted activities even though there are no available appropriations."
It remains uncertain at this point when funding will be enacted for fiscal year 2026 and whether it will be in the form of a continuing resolution or finalization of annual appropriations measures. We cannot predict the outcome of the fiscal year 2026 budget process, including any impact on the Company's programs.
Global Geopolitical and Economic Environment - The global geopolitical and economic environment continues to be impacted by uncertainty, heightened geopolitical tensions, and instability. Geopolitical relationships continue to change, and the U.S. and its allies face a global security environment that includes threats from state and non-state actors, including major global powers, as well as terrorist organizations, emerging nuclear tensions, diverse regional security concerns, and political instability. These global threats persist across all domains, from undersea to space to cyber, and the global market for defense products, services, and solutions is driven by these complex and evolving security challenges. In addition, changes in the global economic environment, including changes in international trade policies, including those imposing tariffs, could further impact the global market for defense products. Our current operating environment exists in the broader context of political and socioeconomic priorities and reflects, among other things, the continued impact of and uncertainty surrounding geopolitical tensions, financial market volatility, inflation, trade policy, and a challenging labor market.

Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates, and Judgments
As discussed in our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K, we consider our policies relating to the following matters to be critical accounting policies and estimates:
•Revenue recognition;
•Retirement related benefit plans; and
•Workers' compensation.
As of September 30, 2025, there had been no material changes to the foregoing critical accounting policies, estimates, and judgments since December 31, 2024.
Program Descriptions
For convenience, a brief description of certain programs discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is included in the "Glossary of Programs" in this section.

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 largely flexibly-priced. Therefore, sales tend to fluctuate in concert with costs across our large portfolio of active contracts, with operating income being a critical measure of operating performance. Under the Federal Acquisition Regulation 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 financial 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.
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 profit margin rate for a particular contract.
Sales and service revenues for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2025, increased $443 million, or 16%, and $477 million, or 6%, respectively compared to the same periods in 2024, primarily due to higher volumes at Newport News, Ingalls, and Mission Technologies.
Net Cumulative Catch-up Revenue Adjustments
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, favorable and unfavorable cumulative catch-up revenue adjustments were as follows:

See Note 7: Revenue and "Segment Operating Results" in this section for additional information on our net cumulative catch-up revenue adjustments.
Cost of Product Sales and Service Revenues
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.
Refer to "Segment Operating Results" and "Product and Service Revenues and Cost Analysis" in this section for details related to cost of sales for both product sales and service revenues.
Income 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.
Refer to "Segment Operating Results" in this section for details related to income from operating investments.
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 each of the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2025, decreased $7 million from the same periods in 2024, primarily due to lower overhead costs.
Operating Income
We consider operating income an important measure for evaluating our operating performance, and, consistent with industry practice, we define operating income as revenues less the related costs of producing the revenues and general and administrative expenses.
Segment Operating Income
We internally manage our operations by reference to "segment operating income," which is a non-GAAP measure and is defined as operating income before the Operating FAS/CAS Adjustment and non-current state income taxes, neither of which affects contract performance. Segment operating income is a measure we use to evaluate our core operating performance as it reflects the aggregate performance results of contracts within a segment. 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. 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.
Changes in segment operating income are typically expressed in terms of volume, as discussed in "Sales and Service Revenues" above, or performance. Performance refers to changes in contract profit margin rates. These changes typically relate to profit recognition associated with revisions to estimated costs at completion ("EAC"), which reflect improved or deteriorated operating performance on that 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 also be affected by, among other things, contract performance, inflationary pressures on our supply chain, the effects of workforce stoppages and other labor-related shortfalls, the availability of raw materials, 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. Refer to "Segment Operating Results" in this section for activity within each segment.
The following table reconciles operating income to segment operating income:

FAS/CAS Adjustment and Operating FAS/CAS Adjustment
The FAS/CAS Adjustment reflects the difference between expenses for pension and other postretirement benefits determined in accordance with GAAP ("FAS") and the expenses for these items included in segment operating income in accordance with U.S. Cost Accounting Standards ("CAS"). The Operating FAS/CAS Adjustment excludes the following components of net periodic benefit costs: interest cost, expected return on plan assets, amortization of prior service cost (credit) and actuarial loss (gain), and settlement and curtailment effects.
The components of the Operating FAS/CAS Adjustment were as follows:

| Operating FAS/CAS Adjustment expense | $ | (9) | $ | (16) | $ | 7 | 44 | % | $ | (25) | $ | (48) | $ | 23 | 48 | % | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Operating FAS/CAS Adjustment was a net expense of $9 million and $16 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Operating FAS/CAS Adjustment was a net expense of $25 million and $48 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The favorable change in the Operating FAS/CAS Adjustment for each period was primarily driven by higher interest rates under FAS.
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 unrecognized tax benefits in the relevant period. These amounts are recorded within operating income. Current period state income taxes are charged to contract costs and included in cost of sales and service revenues in segment operating income.
Non-current state income tax expense was $9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to a non-current state income tax benefit of $1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. Non-current state income tax expense was $12 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to a non-current state income tax benefit of $3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The unfavorable changes in non-current state income taxes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 were driven by an increase in deferred state income tax expense, primarily attributable to a change in net capitalized research and development expenditures.
SEGMENT OPERATING RESULTS
Our discussion of business segment performance focuses on sales and service revenues and operating income, consistent with our approach for managing our business. We are aligned into three reportable segments: Ingalls, Newport News, and Mission Technologies.

The Company's Newport News segment continues to experience performance challenges in the construction of aircraft carriers and the Virginiaclass (SSN 774) submarine program.
Sales and Service Revenues
Newport News revenues, including intersegment sales, for the three months ended September 30, 2025, increased $205 million, or 15%, from the same period in 2024, primarily driven by higher volumes in submarines and aircraft carriers.
Newport News revenues, including intersegment sales, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, increased $235 million, or 5%, from the same period in 2024, primarily driven by higher volumes in submarines.
Segment Operating Income
Newport News segment operating income for the three months ended September 30, 2025, was $80 million, compared to segment operating income of $15 million for the same period in 2024. The increase was primarily driven by unfavorable cumulative catch-up adjustments in the Virginiaclass (SSN 774) submarine program and aircraft carriers in 2024.
Newport News segment operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, was $247 million, compared to segment operating income of $208 million for the same period in 2024. The increase was primarily driven by risk retirement in the Columbiaclass (SSBN 826) submarine program and contract adjustments in the Virginiaclass (SSN 774) submarine program, partially offset by contract adjustments and incentives in 2024 in the RCOH program.

Product Sales and Segment Cost of Product Sales
Product sales for the three months ended September 30, 2025, increased $311 million, or 18%, from the same period in 2024, primarily due to higher volumes in submarines and aircraft carriers at Newport News, and surface combatants at Ingalls.
Segment cost of product sales for the three months ended September 30, 2025, increased $264 million, or 17%, compared with the same period in 2024, primarily due to the higher volumes described above.
Product sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, increased $268 million, or 5%, from the same period in 2024, primarily due to higher volumes in submarines at Newport News and surface combatants at Ingalls, partially offset by lower volumes in amphibious assault ships at Ingalls.
Segment cost of product sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, increased $261 million, or 6%, compared with the same period in 2024, primarily due to the changes in volume described above.
Service Revenues and Segment Cost of Service Revenues
Service revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2025, increased $132 million, or 13%, from the same period in 2024, primarily due to higher volumes in C5ISR and live, virtual, and constructive training solutions at Mission Technologies, higher volumes in naval nuclear support services and aircraft carriers at Newport News, and higher volumes in surface combatants at Ingalls.

Service revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, increased $209 million, or 7%, from the same period in 2024, primarily due to higher volumes in surface combatants at Ingalls, live, virtual, and constructive
training solutions and cyber, electronic warfare & space at Mission Technologies, and naval nuclear support services at Newport News.
Segment cost of service revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, increased $185 million, or 7%, compared with the same period in 2024, primarily due to the higher volumes described above.
OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2025, was $23 million, which was consistent with the same period in 2024. There were no individually significant drivers for interest expense during the period.
Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, was $79 million, compared to $68 million for the same period in 2024. The increase in interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was driven by an increase in outstanding long-term debt compared to the prior year period.
Non-Operating Retirement Benefit
The non-operating retirement benefit includes the following components of net periodic benefit costs: interest cost, expected return on plan assets, amortization of prior service cost (credit) and actuarial loss (gain), and settlement and curtailment effects.
For the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2025, the non-operating retirement benefit was $48 million and $143 million, respectively, compared with $44 million and $134 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2024. The favorable change in the non-operating retirement benefit for both periods was primarily driven by the amortization of net actuarial costs.
Other, Net
Other, net income for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2025, was $18 million and $30 million, respectively, compared with other, net income of $9 million and $21 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2024. The increase in other, net income for both periods was primarily driven by an increase in unrealized gains on investments.
Federal and Foreign Income Taxes
Our effective income tax rates on earnings from operations for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, were 28.9% and 9.8%, respectively. Our effective income tax rates on earnings from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, were 23.0% and 16.6%, respectively. The higher effective tax rates for the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2025, were primarily attributable to a reduction in the estimated research and development tax credits for the prior period recorded in the current period.
For each of the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2025, our effective tax rate differed from the federal statutory corporate income tax rate of 21% primarily due to a reduction in the estimated research and development tax credits for the prior period recorded in the current period.
BACKLOG
Total backlog as of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, was $55.7 billion and $48.7 billion, respectively. 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 as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
The following table presents funded and unfunded backlog by segment as of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024:

We expect approximately 21% of the $48.7 billion total backlog as of December 31, 2024, to be converted into sales in 2025. U.S. Government orders comprised substantially all of the backlog as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
Contract Awards
The value of new contract awards during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, was approximately $16.0 billion, primarily driven by awards at Newport News and Ingalls, inclusive of a contract modification for construction of two additional Block V Virginia-class submarines.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We seek to efficiently convert operating results into cash for deployment in operating our businesses, implementing our business strategy, and maximizing stockholder value. We use various financial measures to inform our capital deployment strategy, including net cash provided by operating activities and free cash flow. We believe these measures are useful to investors in assessing our financial performance.

| Net cash provided by operating activities | $ | 546 | $ | 2 | $ | 544 | ||||||||||||||
We have historically maintained a capital structure comprised of a mix of equity and debt financing. We vary our leverage both to optimize our equity return and to pursue acquisitions. We expect to meet our current debt obligations as they come due through internally generated funds from current levels of operations, existing borrowing facilities, and/or through refinancing in the debt markets prior to the maturity dates of our debt.
Cash Flows
We discuss below our significant operating, investing, and financing activities affecting cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, as classified in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
Operating Activities
Cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, was $546 million, compared with cash provided by operating activities of $2 million for the same period in 2024. The change in operating cash flow was primarily due to a favorable change in trade working capital driven by the timing of billings across programs and lower payments for income taxes.
We expect cash generated from operations in combination with our current cash and cash equivalents, as well as existing borrowing facilities, to be sufficient to service debt and retiree benefit plans, meet contractual obligations, and fund capital expenditures for at least the next twelve calendar months beginning October 1, 2025, and beyond such twelve-month period based on our current business plans.
Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, was $387 million, compared to $238 million used in investing activities for the same period in 2024. The change in investing cash was primarily driven by the acquisition of W International.
For 2025, we expect our capital expenditures for maintenance and sustainment to be approximately 1.0% to 1.5% of annual revenues and our discretionary capital expenditures to be approximately 2.0% to 2.5% of annual revenues. Our capital expenditures are expected to increase due to investments to expand our shipbuilding capacity.
Financing Activities
Cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, was $678 million, compared with $184 million used in financing activities for the same period in 2024. The change in cash used in financing activities was primarily due to a $396 million decrease in proceeds from our commercial paper program and a $271 million increase in repayments of long term debt, partially offset by a decrease of $162 million in common stock repurchases.
Free Cash Flow
Free cash flow represents cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures net of related grant proceeds. 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, net earnings as a measure of our performance or net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. We believe free cash flow is an important liquidity 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 nine months ended September 30, 2025, increased $521 million from the same period in 2024, primarily due to a favorable change in trade working capital driven by the timing of billings across programs and lower payments for income taxes.
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 material weaknesses exist in one or more such systems. As of September 30, 2025 and 2024, 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 letters of credit issued by commercial banks to support certain leases, insurance policies, and contractual performance obligations, as well as surety bonds issued by insurance companies principally to support our self-insured workers' compensation plans. As of September 30, 2025, $11 million in letters of credit were issued but undrawn and $368 million of surety bonds were outstanding. As of September 30, 2025, we had no other significant off-balance sheet arrangements.
