Litigation
Reform
Act
of
1995
(the
“Act”):
Certain
material
presented
herein
includes
forward-looking
statements intended to qualify for the safe harbor from liability established by the Act. These
forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about the
separation of the Company from ITT Corporation, the terms and the effect of the separation, the nature and impact of such a separation,
capitalization of the Company, future strategic plans and other statements that describe the
Company’s business strategy, outlook, objectives, plans, intentions or
goals,
and
any
discussion
of
future
operating
or
financial
performance.
Whenever
used,
words
such
as
“anticipate,”
“estimate,”
“expect,”
“project,”
“intend,”
“plan,”
“believe,”
“target”
and other terms of similar meaning are intended to identify such forward-looking
statements. Forward-looking statements are uncertain and to some extent
unpredictable, and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those expressed or implied in, or reasonably inferred from, such
forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause results to differ materially
from those anticipated include, but are not limited to:
In addition, there are risks and uncertainties relating to our separation from ITT Corporation
including whether those transactions will result in any tax liability, the operational
and financial profile of the Company or any of its businesses after giving effect to the separation, and the ability of the Company to operate as
an independent entity.
The Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as
a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. In
addition, forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from
the Company’s historical experience and our present expectations or projections. These
risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those described in Exelis
Inc.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 and those described from time to time in our future reports filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Our dependence on the defense industry and the business risks
peculiar to that industry, including changing priorities or reductions
in the U.S.
Government or international defense budgets;
Government regulations and compliance therewith, including
changes to the Department of Defense procurement process;
Our international operations, including sales to foreign customers;
Competition, industry capacity and production rates;
Misconduct of our employees, subcontractors, agents and business
partners;
The level of returns on postretirement benefit plan assets and
potential employee benefit plan contributions and other
employment and pension matters;
Changes
in
interest
rates
and
other
factors
that
affect
earnings
and
cash flows;
The mix of our contracts and programs, our performance, and our
ability to control costs;
Governmental investigations;
Our
level
of
indebtedness
and
our
ability
to
make
payments
on
or
service
our
indebtedness;
Subcontractor performance;
Economic and capital markets conditions;
The availability and pricing of raw materials and components;
Ability to retain and recruit qualified personnel;
Protection of intellectual property rights;
Changes in technology;
Contingencies related to actual or alleged environmental contamination,
claims and concerns;
Security breaches and other disruptions to our information technology and
operations; and
Unanticipated changes in our tax provisions or exposure to additional
income tax liabilities.

 RECONCILIATION OF
NON-GAAP
MEASURES
Management reviews key performance indicators including revenue,
segment operating income and margins, orders growth, and
backlog, among other metrics on a regular basis. In addition, we
consider certain additional measures to be useful to management
and investors evaluating our operating performance for the periods presented, and provide a
tool for evaluating our ongoing operations, liquidity and management of assets. This
information can assist investors in assessing our financial performance and
measures our ability to generate capital for deployment among competing strategic alternatives
and initiatives, including, but not limited to, acquisitions, and debt repayment. These
metrics, however, are not measures of financial performance under accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and should not be considered
a substitute for sales, operating income, income from continuing operations, or net
cash from continuing operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. We consider the
following non-GAAP measures, which may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by
other companies, to be key performance indicators:
“adjusted net income”
defined as net income, adjusted to exclude items that include, but are not limited to
significant charges or credits that impact current results, but are not related to our
ongoing operations, unusual and infrequent non-operating items and
non-operating tax settlements or adjustments. A reconciliation of adjusted net income is
provided below. 11

 RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP
MEASURES “segment adjusted operating income”
defined as operating income of our two segments, adjusted to exclude items that
include, but are not limited to significant charges or credits that impact current results, but
are not related to our ongoing operations, unusual and infrequent non-operating
items and non-operating tax settlements or adjustments. A reconciliation of segment
operating income is provided below. “segment adjusted operating margin”
defined as segment adjusted operating income as defined above, divided by
revenue. A reconciliation of segment operating margin is provided below.
