Forward-looking statements, 10-Q filed Nov 5, 2026

• The Opportunity Pipeline represents the revenue opportunity for the Company from potential future contracts obtained through organic growth from qualified customers based on the expected base year contract value plus the value of all option periods.
• The continued focus on removing barriers to new entrants and any related future legislation could reduce the likelihood of direct awards to some of the Company's larger competitors operating in the industry, while the new acquisition strategy and streamlined procurement processes have the potential to have positive impacts on our business.
• Ongoing conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, threats in the Pacific region, macroeconomic pressures, the national debt, and competing domestic priorities will continue to shape our customers' budgets and spending decisions.
• Executive branch cost reduction initiatives and the administration's focus on government efficiency and contract management add further uncertainty, and we anticipate that debates over budgetary priorities, the debt ceiling, and discretionary spending constraints will remain significant, with potentially meaningful impacts on our programs and the Company.
• A prolonged failure to resolve outstanding appropriations disputes is expected to have a negative impact on our business, financial condition, and operating results.
• We expect to recognize approximately 25.0% of the remaining performance obligations within the next 12 months and approximately 51.0% cumulatively within the next 24 months, with the remainder recognized thereafter.
• We cannot predict with certainty the portion of our backlog that will be recognized as revenue in any future period, and we cannot guarantee that we will recognize any revenue from our backlog.
• Government (“USG”) spending, which could reduce or delay funding for orders for services; and delayed funding of our contracts resulting from delays in the completion of the USG budgeting process and the USG’s use of CRs to fund its operations.
• We expect to recognize revenue from a substantial portion of our funded backlog within the next 24 months.
• However, given the uncertainties discussed above, we can give no assurance that we will convert our backlog into revenue in any particular period, if at all.
