NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED AND COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our Business
Vectrus is a leading provider of services to the United States (U.S.) government worldwide. We operate in a single segment and offer services in three major capability areas: infrastructure asset management, logistics and supply chain management and information technology and network communication. Our infrastructure asset management services support the U.S. Army, Air Force and Navy and include infrastructure services, security, warehouse management and distribution, ammunition management, military base maintenance and operations, communications, emergency services, transportation, and life support activities at a number of critical global military installations. Our logistics and supply chain management services support and maintain the vehicle and equipment stocks of the U.S. Army and Marine Corps. Our information technology and network communication services consist of sustainment of communications systems, network security, systems installation and full life cycle management of information technology systems for the U.S. Army, Air Force and Navy.
Unless the context otherwise requires, references in these notes to "Vectrus", "we," "us," "our," "the Company" and "our Company" refer to Vectrus, Inc. References in these notes to Exelis or "Former Parent" refer to Exelis Inc., an Indiana corporation, and its consolidated subsidiaries (other than Vectrus), which was acquired by Harris Corporation on May 29, 2015.
Separation from Exelis Inc.
On September 27, 2014, Vectrus was spun-off from Exelis (the Spin-off). Prior to the Spin-off, Vectrus was Exelis' Mission Systems business, which was part of Exelis' Information and Technical Services segment. Effective as of 12:01 a.m., Eastern Time on September 27, 2014 (the Distribution Date), the common stock of Vectrus was distributed, on a pro rata basis, to Exelis shareholders of record as of the close of business on September 18, 2014 (the Record Date). On the Distribution Date, each of the shareholders of Exelis received one share of Vectrus common stock for every 18 shares of common stock of Exelis held on the Record Date. The Spin-off was completed pursuant to the Distribution Agreement, dated September 25, 2014, between Exelis and Vectrus (the Distribution Agreement). After the Distribution Date, Exelis did not beneficially own any shares of Vectrus common stock.
Vectrus' Registration Statement on Form 10 was declared effective by the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) on September 8, 2014 (See Note 14, "Transactions with Former Parent").
On September 17, 2014, in connection with the Spin-off, Vectrus entered into a $140.0 million term loan (See Note 6, "Debt"). The proceeds of the term loan agreement were used to fund a $136.3 million distribution to a subsidiary of Exelis that occurred on September 26, 2014.
Principles of Consolidation
Vectrus consolidates companies in which it has a controlling financial interest. We account for investments in companies over which we have the ability to exercise significant influence, but do not hold a controlling interest under the equity method, and we record our proportionate share of income or losses in the unaudited condensed consolidated and combined statements of income. All intercompany transactions and balances between programs have been eliminated.
Principles of Combination and Basis of Presentation
Our quarterly financial periods end on the Friday closest to the last day of the calendar quarter (June 26, 2015 for the second quarter of 2015 and June 28, 2014 for the second quarter of 2014), except for the last quarter of the fiscal year, which ends on December 31. For ease of presentation, the quarterly financial statements included herein are described as three months ended.    
The unaudited condensed consolidated and combined financial statements reflect the consolidated operations of Vectrus as a separate stand-alone entity beginning on September 27, 2014. Our historical unaudited condensed consolidated and combined financial statements have been prepared on a stand-alone basis and have been derived from the consolidated financial statements of Exelis and accounting records of Exelis. The unaudited

7


condensed consolidated and combined financial statements reflect our results of operations and cash flows as we were historically managed, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).
The accompanying financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the year ended December 31, 2014. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal and recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented have been included.
All intercompany transactions and balances between programs have been eliminated. Prior to September 27, 2014, all intercompany transactions between Vectrus and Exelis have been included in these unaudited condensed consolidated and combined financial statements and were considered to be effectively settled for cash at the time the transaction was recorded. The total net effect of the settlement of these intercompany transactions is reflected in the unaudited condensed consolidated and combined statements of cash flows as a financing activity.
The financial statements presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q represent:
(i) periods prior to September 27, 2014 when we were part of Exelis (referred to as "unaudited condensed combined financial statements") and
(ii) the period as of and subsequent to September 27, 2014 when we became a separate publicly-traded company (referred to as "unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements").
Prior to September 27, 2014, our unaudited condensed consolidated and combined financial statements included expenses of Exelis allocated to us for certain functions provided by Exelis, including, but not limited to, general corporate expenses related to finance, legal, information technology, human resources, communications, ethics and compliance, shared services, employee benefits and incentives, insurance and stock-based compensation. These expenses were allocated to us on the basis of direct usage when identifiable, with the remainder allocated on the basis of revenue, headcount or other measures. We consider the basis on which the expenses had been allocated to be a reasonable reflection of the utilization of services provided to, or the benefit received by, us during the periods presented. The allocations may not, however, reflect the expense we would have incurred as an independent, publicly-traded company for the periods presented. Actual costs that may have been incurred if we had been a stand-alone company would depend on a number of factors, including the organization of our operations, what functions were outsourced or performed by employees and strategic decisions made in areas such as information technology and infrastructure. Following our Spin-off from Exelis, we began performing these functions using our own resources or purchased services. For an interim period, however, some of these functions have been and will continue to be provided by Exelis under a transition services agreement, which generally has a term of one year or less for most services to be provided (See Note 14, "Transactions with Former Parent"). In addition, in support of ongoing business, we have entered into subcontracts with Exelis whereby either we or Exelis serve as a subcontractor to the other on certain government contracts.
Exelis used a centralized approach to cash management and financing of its operations. Prior to the Spin-off, the majority of our cash was transferred to Exelis daily and Exelis funded our operating and investing activities as needed. Cash transfers to and from the cash management accounts of Exelis are reflected in the unaudited condensed consolidated and combined statements of cash flows as “Transfer to Former Parent, net.”
Presentation Correction
During the three months ended June 26, 2015, the Company identified an error in the presentation of borrowings and repayments of the Company’s revolving credit facility in the condensed consolidated and combined statement of cash flows for the three months ended March 27, 2015.  The Company corrected the presentation of borrowings and repayments on the revolving credit facility to reflect them on a gross basis in the financing activities section of the condensed consolidated and combined statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 26, 2015.  The correction did not change previously reported total financing activities.

8


Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Estimates are revised as additional information becomes available. Estimates and assumptions are used for, but not limited to, revenue recognition, income tax contingency accruals, fair value and impairment of goodwill and valuation of assets and certain contingent liabilities. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
As a defense contractor engaging in long-term contracts, the majority of our revenue is derived from long-term service contracts for which revenue is recognized under the percentage-of-completion method based on levels of effort or percentage of costs incurred to total costs. For levels of effort, revenue and profits are recognized based upon the ratio of actual services delivered to estimated total services to be delivered under the contract. Under the cost-to-total cost method, revenue is recognized based upon the ratio of costs incurred to estimated total costs at completion. Revenue under cost-reimbursement contracts is recorded as costs are incurred and includes estimated earned fees or profits calculated on the basis of the relationship between costs incurred and total estimated costs. Revenue and profits on time-and-material type contracts are recognized based on billable rates multiplied by direct labor hours incurred plus material and other reimbursable costs incurred. The completed contract method is utilized when reasonable and reliable cost estimates for a project cannot be made. Amounts invoiced to customers in excess of revenue recognized are recorded as deferred revenue, until the revenue recognition criteria are satisfied, and are recorded as Billings in excess of costs in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Revenue that is earned and recognized in excess of amounts invoiced is recorded as a component of receivables.
During the performance of long-term sales contracts, estimated final contract prices and costs are reviewed periodically and revisions are made as required and recorded in income in the period in which they are determined. Additionally, the fees under certain contracts may be increased or decreased in accordance with cost or performance incentive provisions which measure actual performance against established targets or other criteria. Such incentive fee awards or penalties are included in revenue when there is sufficient information to reasonably assess anticipated contract performance. Amounts representing contract change orders, claims, requests for equitable adjustment, or limitations in funding on contracts are recorded only if it is probable the claim will result in additional contract revenue and the amounts can be reliably estimated. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted long-term contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined and are recorded as a component of cost of revenue. Changes in contract revenue and cost estimates could result in recognition of cumulative catch-up adjustments to the contract’s inception to date revenue, cost of revenue and profit in the period in which such changes are made, based on a contract’s percentage of completion. Changes in revenue and cost estimates could also result in a forward loss or an adjustment to a forward loss.
Cumulative catch-up adjustments are presented in the following table:

For the six months ended June 26, 2015 and June 28, 2014, we generated approximately 90.9% and 86.1%, respectively, of our total revenue from the U.S. Army. Our four largest contracts, in aggregate, amounted to approximately $377.7 million, or 66.0%, and $409.3 million, or 66.3%, of our total revenue for the six months ended June 26, 2015 and June 28, 2014, respectively.
Derivative Instrument
Derivative instruments are recognized as either an asset or liability at fair value in Vectrus' condensed consolidated balance sheet and are classified as current or long-term based on the scheduled maturity of the instrument. Vectrus' derivative instrument has been formally designated and qualifies as part of a cash flow hedging relationship under applicable accounting standards.

9


The derivative instrument is adjusted to fair value through accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). If it is determined that a derivative is no longer highly effective as a hedge, the Company would discontinue the hedge accounting prospectively. Gains or losses would be immediately reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to earnings relating to hedged forecasted transactions that are no longer probable of occurring. Gains or losses relating to terminations of effective cash flow hedges in which the forecasted transactions would still be probable of occurring would be deferred and recognized consistent with the income or loss recognition of the underlying hedged item.
Derivatives are classified in the financing section of the condensed consolidated and combined statements of cash flows, consistent with the underlying hedged item.
Refer to Note 7, "Derivative Instrument" for information regarding Vectrus' derivative activities.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Standard
Description
Date of issuance
Effect on the financial statements or other significant matters
Standards that are not yet adopted
 
 
 
Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The standard will replace existing revenue recognition standards and significantly expand the disclosure requirements for revenue arrangements. It may be adopted either retrospectively or on a modified retrospective basis to new contracts and existing contracts with remaining performance obligations as of the effective date. The standard is effective for the first interim period within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is not permitted.
May 2014, as amended in July 2015
We are currently evaluating the effect the standard is expected to have on the Company's financial statements and related disclosures.
Standards that were adopted
 
 
 
ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs
The amendments in the update require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts.
April 2015
The Company adopted this guidance on June 26, 2015. As a result, the Company reclassified $3.1 million in debt financing fees from “Total non-current assets” to a direct deduction from the carrying amount of “Long term debt, net" on the June 26, 2015 condensed consolidated balance sheet. In addition, the Company reclassified $3.5 million in debt financing fees from “Total non-current assets” to a direct deduction from the carrying amount of “Long term debt, net" on the December 31, 2014 condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Other new pronouncements issued but not effective until after June 26, 2015 are not expected to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE 3
INCOME TAXES
Effective Tax Rate
Our quarterly income tax expense is measured using an estimated annual effective income tax rate. The comparison of effective income tax rates between periods may be significantly affected by discrete items recognized during the periods, the level and mix of earnings by tax jurisdiction and permanent differences.
For the three and six months ended June 26, 2015, the Company recorded an income tax provision of $3.4 million, or 36.0%, and $6.2 million, or 36.0%, respectively, of income from continuing operations before income taxes compared to $3.3 million, or 35.1%, and $9.7 million, or 35.7%, respectively, during the same prior year periods. The effective income tax rate varies from the federal statutory rate of 35.0% primarily due to the impact of state taxes and non-deductible expenses.    
Uncertain Tax Position
As of June 26, 2015 and December 31, 2014, unrecognized tax benefits were $7.6 million. We anticipate that approximately $6.9 million of the unrecognized tax benefits would, if recognized, affect our effective tax rate. We believe the majority of our uncertain tax positions at June 26, 2015 will significantly decrease within twelve months of the reporting date due to the resolution of examinations.
NOTE 4
EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share (EPS) is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects potential dilution that could occur if securities to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. Diluted EPS includes the dilutive effect of share-based compensation outstanding after application of the treasury stock method. For the three and six months ended June 26, 2015, less than 0.1 million shares were not included in diluted EPS due to their anti-dilutive effects.

As of June 26, 2015 and December 31, 2014, all billed receivables are due from the U.S. government, either directly as prime contractor to the government or as subcontractor to another prime contractor to the U.S. government. Because the Company’s billed receivables are with the U.S. government, the Company does not believe it has a material credit risk exposure.
Unbilled contract receivables represent revenue recognized on long-term contracts in excess of amounts billed as of the balance sheet date. We estimate that approximately $3.6 million of our unbilled contract receivables as of June 26, 2015 may not be collected within the next 12 months. These amounts relate to requests for equitable adjustments and contract line item realignments with our customers.
As part of the Spin-off, Exelis indemnified Vectrus for a receivable of approximately $11.4 million. As of June 26, 2015, the receivable balance was $10.5 million due to the effect of foreign currency translation during the period. Vectrus has a corresponding liability of $10.5 million as we are required to remit payment to Exelis for amounts collected related to the indemnified receivable.
NOTE 6
DEBT
Credit Agreement
On September 17, 2014, Vectrus entered into a Credit Agreement (the Credit Agreement) by and among Vectrus, our 100% owned subsidiary Vectrus Systems Corporation (VSC), as the Borrower, the Lenders and Issuing Banks party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent. The Credit Agreement provided for $215.0 million in senior secured financing, consisting of a $140.0 million term loan facility (the Term Facility) and a $75.0 million revolving credit facility (the Revolver and, together with the Term Facility, the Senior Secured Credit Facilities). The net proceeds from the Term Facility were used to pay a $136.3 million distribution to a subsidiary of Exelis on September 26, 2014. The Revolver is available for working capital, capital expenditures, and other general corporate purposes. In connection with the Credit Agreement, the Company paid $3.7 million in debt financing fees, which are included in "Long-term debt, net" in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The debt issuance costs are being amortized as an adjustment to Interest expense over the life of the Credit Agreement.
Term Facility
The Term Facility consists of a five-year term loan in an aggregate principal amount of $140.0 million. The full amount of the term loan was made in a single drawing on September 26, 2014. As of June 26, 2015, the balance outstanding for the Term Facility was $126.1 million. The Term Facility amortizes in quarterly installments at the following rates per annum: 7.5% in year one; 10% in each of years two and three, 15% in year four and 57.5% in year five. Amounts borrowed under the Term Facility that are repaid or prepaid may not be re-borrowed. Any unpaid amounts must be repaid by September 17, 2019. In addition to the quarterly installments, the Company voluntarily prepaid $6.0 million as of June 26, 2015 and intends to voluntarily prepay an additional $6.0 million over the next twelve months.

12


Revolver
The Revolver consists of a five-year senior secured revolving credit facility with aggregate commitments in an amount equal to $75.0 million, of which up to $35.0 million is available for the issuance of letters of credit, and includes a swingline facility in an amount equal to $10.0 million. The Revolver will mature and the commitments thereunder will terminate on September 17, 2019. As of June 26, 2015, there were eight letters of credit outstanding in the aggregate amount of $16.9 million, which reduced our borrowing availability to $58.1 million under the Revolver.
Guarantees and Collateral
The indebtedness, obligations and liabilities under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities are unconditionally guaranteed jointly and severally on a senior secured basis by Vectrus and certain of its current and future restricted subsidiaries and are secured, subject to permitted liens and other exceptions and exclusions, by a first-priority lien on substantially all tangible and intangible assets of Vectrus, VSC and each domestic guarantor including (i) a perfected pledge of all of the capital stock of VSC and each direct, wholly-owned material restricted subsidiary held by VSC or any guarantor (subject to certain limitations with respect to foreign subsidiaries) and (ii) perfected security interests in and mortgages on, accounts, inventory, equipment, general intangibles, commercial tort claims, investment property, intellectual property, material fee-owned real property, letter of credit rights, deposit and securities accounts, intercompany notes and proceeds of the foregoing, except for certain excluded assets.
Mandatory Prepayments
The Term Facility requires the following amounts to be applied to prepay the Term Loan, subject to certain thresholds, exceptions and reinvestment rights:
100% of the net cash proceeds from the incurrence of indebtedness by Vectrus and its restricted subsidiaries (other than permitted debt);
100% of the net cash proceeds of all non-ordinary course asset sales or other dispositions of property by Vectrus and its restricted subsidiaries (including casualty insurance and condemnation proceeds, but with exceptions for sales of inventory and other ordinary course dispositions, obsolete or worn-out property, property no longer useful in the business and other exceptions);
50% of excess cash flow with step-downs to 25% and 0% based on certain leverage ratios, commencing with fiscal year ending December 31, 2015. Any voluntary prepayments made by the Company that exceed the scheduled payments for a specific year will be applied against the required step-down amount for that specific year.
Voluntary Prepayments
VSC may voluntarily prepay the Term Facility in whole or in part at any time without premium or penalty, subject to the payment of customary breakage costs, which we anticipate would be minimal, in the case of LIBOR rate loans as defined in the Credit Agreement. Optional prepayments of the Term Facility will be applied to the remaining installments thereof as directed by VSC.
Commitments under the Revolver may be reduced in whole or in part at any time without premium or penalty.
Covenants
The Senior Secured Credit Facilities contain certain covenants that, among other items, limit or restrict the ability of Vectrus and its restricted subsidiaries, including VSC, to (subject to certain qualifications and exceptions):
create liens and encumbrances;
incur additional indebtedness;
merge, dissolve, liquidate or consolidate;
make acquisitions, investments, advances or loans;
dispose of or transfer assets;
pay dividends or make other payments in respect of our capital stock;

13


amend certain material documents;
redeem or repurchase certain debt;
engage in certain transactions with affiliates;
enter into speculative hedging arrangements; and
enter into certain restrictive agreements.
As of June 26, 2015, the maximum amount of dividends the Company could distribute was $5.0 million. In addition, Vectrus is required to comply with (a) a maximum ratio of total consolidated indebtedness to consolidated Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) of 3.50 to 1.00, with step-downs to 3.00 to 1.00 beginning with the third fiscal quarter of 2015 and 2.75 to 1.00 beginning with the first fiscal quarter of 2016 and (b) a minimum ratio of consolidated EBITDA to consolidated interest expense (net of cash interest income) of 4.50 to 1.00. As of June 26, 2015, the Company had a total consolidated indebtedness to EBITDA of 2.55 to 1.00 and consolidated EBITDA to consolidated interest expense of 7.84 to 1.00. The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants related to the Senior Secured Credit Facilities as of June 26, 2015.
Interest Rates and Fees
Outstanding borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities accrue interest, at the option of VSC, at a per annum rate of (i) LIBOR plus the applicable margin or (ii) a base rate plus the applicable margin. The applicable margin for borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities is subject to a leverage-based pricing grid with the LIBOR rate ranging from 2.50% to 3.00%. The interest rate under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities at June 26, 2015 was 3.19%.
During an event of default, overdue principal under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities may bear interest at a rate of 2.00% in excess of the otherwise applicable rate of interest. On and after the funding date, VSC pays a commitment fee on the undrawn portion of the Revolver ranging from 0.40% to 0.50% depending on the leverage ratio.
The fair value of the Company's long-term debt approximates the carrying value as of June 26, 2015 because the term loan bears interest at a floating rate of interest. The fair value is based on observable inputs of interest rates that are currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms and maturities for non-public debt.

NOTE 7
DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENT
Risk Management Policy
The Company is exposed to the risk that its earnings and cash flows could be adversely impacted due to fluctuations in interest rates applicable to the variable rate portion of its term facility. The Company will periodically enter into interest rate swaps to manage interest costs in which the Company agrees to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between variable and fixed interest amounts calculated by reference to an agreed-upon notional amount. Derivative instruments are not used for trading purposes or to manage exposure to changes in interest rates for investment securities, and the Company’s outstanding derivative instrument does not contain credit risk related contingent features; collateral is generally not required.

14


Derivative Instrument
On May 5, 2015, the Company entered into a derivative instrument to hedge a portion of the Company’s exposure to interest rate risk under its variable-rate borrowing (the "interest rate swap"). The interest rate swap is designated and qualifies as an effective cash flow hedge. The contract, with notional amount of $40.0 million at June 26, 2015, is recorded at fair value.
The Company’s interest rate swap is measured at fair value on a recurring basis and is determined using the income approach based on a discounted cash flow model to determine the present value of future cash flows over the remaining terms of the contract incorporating observable market inputs such as prevailing interest rates as of the reporting date. Changes in fair value of the interest rate swap are recorded, net of tax, as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company reclassifies the effective gain or loss from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax, to Interest expense on the Company’s condensed consolidated and combined statements of income as the interest expense is recognized on the related debt. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the interest rate swap, if any, is recognized directly in earnings in Interest expense.
The following table summarizes the amount at fair value and location of Vectrus' derivative instrument as of June 26, 2015:

By utilizing an interest rate swap, the Company is exposed to credit-related losses in the event that the counterparty fails to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. To mitigate this risk, the Company entered into the interest rate swap with a major financial institution based upon credit ratings and other factors. The Company continually assesses the creditworthiness of its counterparty. As of June 26, 2015, the counterparty to the interest rate swap had performed in accordance with its contractual obligations. Both the counterparty credit risk and the Company’s credit risk were considered in the fair value determination.
NOTE 8
GOODWILL
Goodwill at June 26, 2015 of $216.9 million remained unchanged from December 31, 2014. There was no goodwill impairment during the six months ended June 26, 2015. We conduct our annual impairment testing as of the first day of the fourth fiscal quarter.

RESTRUCTURING
We have initiated various restructuring activities in our business during the past two years. The restructuring activities focus on various aspects of our operations, including closing certain facilities, rationalizing headcount, and aligning operations in the most strategic and cost efficient manner.

16


           For the six months ended June 26, 2015, there was no expense related to severance and related benefit costs as part of our restructuring activities and for the six months ended June 28, 2014 there was $0.1 million related to severance and related benefit costs as part of our restructuring activities.
The Company expects substantially all remaining severance payments to be paid out by the third quarter of 2015 pursuant to agreements entered into with affected employees and we do not expect to incur significant additional charges related to these actions in future periods.
The severance and related benefit costs and their utilization for the six months ended June 26, 2015 are summarized in the table below:

POST EMPLOYMENT BENEFIT PLANS
Vectrus sponsors one defined contribution savings plan, which allows employees to contribute a portion of their pre-tax and/or after-tax income in accordance with specified guidelines. The plan requires us to match a percentage of the employee contributions up to certain limits of employee base pay. Our portion of the matching contributions charged to income amounted to $1.2 million and $1.6 million for the six months ended June 26, 2015 and June 28, 2014, respectively.
On September 11, 2014, the Board of Directors adopted and approved the Vectrus Systems Corporation Excess Savings Plan (the Excess Savings Plan). Since federal law limits the amount of compensation that can be used to determine employee and employer contribution amounts to the Company's tax-qualified plans, the Company established the Excess Savings Plan to allow for Company contributions based on an eligible employee's base salary in excess of these limits. No employee contributions are permitted. All balances under the Excess Savings Plan are maintained on the books of the Company and credits and deductions are made to the accumulated savings under the plan based on the earnings or losses attributable to a stable value fund as defined in the Excess Savings Plan. Benefits will be paid in a lump sum generally in the seventh month following the date on which the employee's separation from service occurs. Employees are 100% vested at all times in any amounts credited to their accounts. As of June 26, 2015, the Company had accrued $0.2 million of contributions.

NOTE 13
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company maintains an equity incentive plan to govern awards granted to Vectrus employees and directors including nonqualified stock options (NQOs), incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units (RSUs) and other awards that may include, without limitation, unrestricted shares, the payment of shares in lieu of cash, the payment of cash based on attainment of performance goals, service conditions or other goals and the payment of shares in lieu of cash under other Company incentive or bonus programs. We account for NQOs and RSUs as equity-based compensation awards. Total shareholder return (TSR) awards described below and cash settled RSUs are accounted for as liability-based compensation awards.

During the six months ended June 26, 2015, we granted long-term incentive awards to employees and directors consisting of 53,834 NQOs and 93,252 RSUs with respective weighted average grant date fair values per share of $12.65 and $30.31. The NQOs expire 10 years from the date of the grant and vest in one-third increments over three years following the date of the grant. The fair value of each NQO grant was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The RSUs vest in one-third increments on each of the three anniversary dates following the grant date. The fair value of the RSUs was determined based on the closing price of Vectrus common stock on the date of grant. Stock compensation expense will be recognized ratably over the vesting period of the awards.

The fair value of stock options is determined on the date of grant utilizing a Black-Scholes valuation model. The following assumptions were utilized in deriving the fair value for NQOs granted on March 4, 2015 under the Black-Scholes model:

Total Shareholder Return Awards
TSR awards are granted, subject to a three-year performance period, and any payments earned are made in cash following completion of the performance period, according to the achievement of specified performance goals. TSR awards provide performance-based cash award incentives to our key employees. During the six months ended June 26, 2015, we granted 2015 TSR awards with an aggregate target value of $1.7 million. The TSRs will be cash settled at the end of a three-year performance period. The fair value of TSR awards is measured quarterly and based on the Company’s performance relative to the performance of the Aerospace and Defense companies in the S&P 1500 index. Depending on the Company’s performance during the three-year performance period, payment can range from 0% to 200% of the target value. As of June 26, 2015, the Company recorded $0.1 million in expense related to the 2015 TSR awards.
NOTE 14
TRANSACTIONS WITH FORMER PARENT
The unaudited condensed consolidated and combined financial statements have been prepared on a stand-alone basis. However, prior to September 27, 2014, they were derived from the consolidated and combined financial statements and accounting records of Exelis.
Allocation of General Corporate Expenses
Prior to September 27, 2014 these unaudited condensed consolidated and combined financial statements included expense allocations for certain functions provided by Exelis as well as other Exelis employees not solely dedicated to the Company, including, but not limited to, general corporate expenses related to finance, legal, information technology, human resources, communications, ethics and compliance, shared services, employee benefits and incentives and stock-based compensation. These expenses have been allocated to us on the basis of direct usage when identifiable, with the remainder allocated on the basis of revenue, headcount or other measures. For the six months ended June 28, 2014, we were allocated $13.4 million of general corporate expenses incurred by Exelis which are primarily included within Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated and combined statements of income.
The expense allocations from Exelis discussed above include costs associated with defined benefit pension and other post-retirement benefit plans (the Shared Plans) sponsored by Exelis in which some of our employees participate. We accounted for such Shared Plans as multiemployer benefit plans. Accordingly, we did not record an asset or liability to recognize the funded status of the Shared Plans. Subsequent to September 27, 2014, the date the employees' benefits were frozen in the plans, we did not incur further costs for the Shared Plans and all assets and liabilities related to the Shared Plans remain with Exelis.
The expense allocations have been determined on a basis that we consider to be a reasonable reflection of the utilization of services provided or the benefit received by us during the periods presented. The allocations may not, however, reflect the expense we would have incurred as an independent, publicly-traded company for the periods presented. Actual costs that may have been incurred if we had been a stand-alone company would depend on a number of factors, including the chosen organizational structure, functions outsourced or performed by employees and strategic decisions made in areas such as information technology and infrastructure.

19


Separation Agreements
Following the Spin-off, Vectrus and Exelis began operating independently of each other, and neither has any ownership interest in the other. In order to govern certain ongoing relationships between Vectrus and Exelis following the Spin-off and to provide mechanisms for an orderly transition, on September 27, 2014, Vectrus and Exelis executed the various agreements that will govern the ongoing relationships between the companies after the Spin-off and provide for the allocation of employee benefits, income taxes, and certain other liabilities and obligations attributable to periods prior to the Spin-off. The executed agreements include the Distribution Agreement, Employee Matters Agreement, Tax Matters Agreement, Master Transition Services Agreement, a Technology License Agreement and a Transitional Trademark License Agreement.
For the six months ended June 26, 2015, charges incurred as a result of the services provided to Vectrus by Exelis under the Master Transition Service Agreement, were $1.6 million and no charges were incurred related to the this agreement for services provided by Vectrus to Exelis. As of June 26, 2015 and December 31, 2014, total payables due from Vectrus to Exelis were $0.3 million and $1.4 million, respectively. Total receivables due to Vectrus from Exelis were $0.2 million as of June 26, 2015.
NOTE 15
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
General
From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings that are incidental to the operation of our business. Some of these proceedings seek remedies relating to environmental matters, employment matters and commercial or contractual disputes.
Although the ultimate outcome of any legal matter cannot be predicted with certainty, based on present information, including our assessment of the merits of each particular claim, we do not expect that any asserted or unasserted legal claims or proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, as of June 26, 2015, will have a material adverse effect on our cash flow, results of operations, or financial condition.
Environmental
As of June 26, 2015, we were not aware of any material outstanding environmental liabilities. Any environmental liabilities as of the date of the Spin-off were retained by Exelis as set forth in the Distribution Agreement and, accordingly, after the Spin-off the Company eliminated the liability and recorded a contribution to capital.
U.S. Government Contracts, Investigations and Claims
The Company has U.S. government contracts that are funded incrementally on a year-to-year basis. Changes in government policies, priorities or funding levels through agency or program budget reductions by the U.S. Congress or executive agencies could materially adversely affect the Company’s financial condition or results of operations. Furthermore, contracts with the U.S. government may be terminated or suspended by the U.S. government at any time, with or without cause. Such contract suspensions or terminations could result in unreimbursable expenses or charges or otherwise adversely affect the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.
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 or treble damages. U.S. government regulations provide that certain findings against a contractor may lead to suspension or debarment from future U.S. government contracts or the loss of export privileges for a company or an operating division or subdivision. Suspension or debarment could have a material adverse effect on the Company because of its reliance on U.S. government contracts.
U.S. government agencies, including the Defense Contract Audit Agency, the Defense Contract Management Agency and others, routinely audit and review a contractor’s performance on government contracts, indirect rates and pricing practices, and compliance with applicable contracting and procurement laws, regulations and standards. Accordingly, costs billed or billable to the U.S. government customers are subject to potential adjustment upon audit by such agencies. The agencies also review the adequacy of the contractor’s compliance with government standards for its accounting and management internal control systems, including: control environment and accounting systems, general information technology systems, budget and planning systems, purchasing systems, material management

20


systems, compensation systems, labor systems, indirect and other direct costs systems, property systems, billing systems and estimating systems. Audits currently underway include the Company’s control environment and accounting, billing, and indirect and other direct cost systems, as well as reviews of the Company’s compliance with certain U.S. government Cost Accounting Standards.
From time to time, U.S. government customers advise the Company of claims and penalties concerning certain potential disallowed costs. When such findings are presented, Vectrus and the U.S. government representatives engage in discussions to enable Vectrus to evaluate the merits of these claims as well as to assess the amounts being claimed. Where appropriate, provisions are made to reflect probable losses to the matters raised by the U.S. government representatives and such provisions are reviewed on a quarterly basis for sufficiency based on the most recent information available to us.

Overview
Vectrus, Inc. (Vectrus, the Company, our Company, we, us and our) is a leading provider of services to the U.S. government worldwide. We operate in a single segment and offer services in three major capability areas: infrastructure asset management, logistics and supply chain management, and information technology and network communication. Our infrastructure asset management services support the U.S. Army, Air Force and Navy and include infrastructure services, security, warehouse management and distribution, ammunition management, military base maintenance and operations, communications, emergency services, transportation, and life support activities at a number of critical global military installations. Our logistics and supply chain management services support and maintain the vehicle and equipment stocks of the U.S. Army and Marine Corps. Our information technology and network communication services consist of sustainment of communications systems, network security, systems installation and full life cycle management of information technology systems for the U.S. Army, Air Force and Navy.
Our primary customer is the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD), with a high concentration in the U.S. Army. For the six months ended June 26, 2015, we had revenue of $570.4 million, all of which was derived from U.S. government customers.
Separation from Exelis
On September 27, 2014, Vectrus was spun-off from Exelis. Prior to the Spin-off, Vectrus was formerly Exelis' Mission Systems business, which was part of Exelis' Information and Technical Services segment.
Prior to the Spin-off, we were a subsidiary of Exelis. The financial information included herein for periods prior to the Spin-off may not necessarily reflect our financial position, results of operations and cash flows in the future or what our financial position, results of operations and cash flows would have been had we been an independent, publicly traded company during the periods presented that occurred prior to the Spin-off. We have incurred and are incurring additional costs to be able to function as an independent, publicly traded company, including additional costs related to corporate finance, governance and public reporting.
Executive Summary
Vectrus reported revenue of $309.5 million for the quarter ended June 26, 2015, a decrease of approximately $3.4 million, or 1.1%, from the $312.9 million revenue reported for the corresponding period in 2014.

21


This decrease was driven primarily by lower program activity in Afghanistan as a result of U.S. troop withdrawals and lower service level requirements on our contracts in Afghanistan. The decrease in revenue was partially offset by an increase in revenue from our core business, including new contracts for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (ACE-IT) and U.S. Air Force bases in Turkey and in Spain (Turkey/Spain Base Maintenance).
Operating income for the quarter ended June 26, 2015, was $10.8 million, reflecting an increase of approximately $1.4 million, or 15.1%, compared to the corresponding prior year period, due to lower general corporate expenses incurred for separation costs associated with becoming a stand-alone public company (See Key Performance and Non-GAAP Measures) and lower cost of revenue primarily due to lower revenue driven by lower program activity in Afghanistan as a result of U.S. troop withdrawals.
During the performance of long-term sales contracts, estimated final contract prices and costs are reviewed periodically and revisions are made as required and recorded as income in the periods in which they are determined. Changes in estimated revenue, cost of revenue and the related effect to operating income are recognized using a cumulative catch-up adjustment which recognizes in the current period the cumulative effect of the changes on current and prior periods based on a contract's percentage of completion. Aggregate changes in contract estimates recognized using the cumulative catch-up method of accounting for the three months ended June 26, 2015 and June 28, 2014, decreased operating income by approximately $1.2 million and $3.0 million, respectively.
Revenue derived from services ultimately sold to the U.S. government for contracts based in Afghanistan totaled $45.9 million and $73.1 million for the three months ended June 26, 2015 and June 28, 2014, respectively. U.S. funding for programs in Afghanistan has decreased in recent periods and is expected to continue to decrease as the U.S. government reduces the U.S. presence in Afghanistan. In May 2014, the Obama Administration announced its plan to steadily withdraw U.S. Forces in Afghanistan by 2016. In March 2015, in a joint U.S. and Afghanistan statement, the Obama Administration announced the U.S. will maintain its current posture of 9,800 troops in Afghanistan through the end of 2015. The specific trajectory of the 2016 U.S. troop drawdown is expected to be established later in 2015 to enable the U.S. troop consolidation to a Kabul-based embassy presence by the end of 2016. This withdrawal of military personnel and the subsequent reduction of funding for security and training activities in Afghanistan by the U.S. government will continue to have an adverse effect on our revenue and operating income.
Further details related to the three and six months ended June 26, 2015, compared to the three and six months ended June 28, 2014 are contained in the Discussion of Financial Results section.
Recent Developments
Vectrus was awarded a number of U.S. government contracts in 2014, two of which we believe will have a significant impact on revenue in future years. The first contract is with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and was awarded on August 15, 2014. Under this contract, we will provide information management and information technology support services to more than 37,000 U.S. Army Corps of Engineer customers to include rapid response for emergency operations as well as engineering and design services for future upgrades and modernizations. The contract value is approximately $517 million and it has a five-year duration. We received a notice to proceed on the contract in January 2015, have completed phase-in efforts, and full operational responsibility started in July 2015.
The second contract is with the U.S. Air Forces in Europe and was awarded on September 17, 2014. Under the contract, we will provide civil engineering, airfield support, facilities support, transportation and warehousing support for all U.S. Air Force bases in Turkey and in Spain. The contract value is approximately $458 million and has a seven-year duration. The contract transition began in January of 2015 and full performance started in March 2015.
Finally, we previously announced a Danish company owned by Vectrus (the "Danish Company") received notice of award of an approximately $411 million Hybrid Firm-Fixed Price Contract for Thule Base Maintenance (the "Thule Contract"). In February 2015, the U.S. Government Accounting Office denied protests of the Thule Contract filed by three competitors, all three of them filed a subsequent protest with the United States Court of Federal Claims. On May 28, 2015, the Court of Federal Claims entered a judgment in favor of the protestors which sets aside the Thule Contract and enjoins the Air Force from proceeding with the Thule Contract. As ordered by the Air Force, the Danish Company has stopped work on the Thule Contract but has filed a Notice of Appeal, appealing the decision of the Court of Federal Claims to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.

Economic Opportunities, Challenges and Risks
The U.S. government’s investment in services and capabilities in response to evolving security challenges creates a complex and evolving business environment for Vectrus and other firms in this market segment. The pace and depth of U.S. government acquisition reform and cost savings initiatives, combined with increased industry competitiveness to win long-term positions on key programs, could add pressure to revenue levels and profit margins going forward. However, the DoD budget remains the largest in the world and management estimates our addressable portion of the DoD budget exceeds $25.0 billion. Further, we expect the U.S. government will continue to place a high priority on national security and will continue to invest in affordable solutions for its facilities, logistics, equipment and communication needs, which aligns with our core capabilities and strengths. In addition, we plan to address a larger portion of the U.S. government budget and expand our focus to other sectors of the U.S. government, such as the intelligence community and other civilian agencies. Management believes there is an opportunity to capture a larger share of this addressable market.
Although we anticipate reductions to certain programs in which we participate or for which we expect to compete, others are expanding.  In addition to a number of lengthy contract extensions, some programs are experiencing growth resulting from additions to the scope of the contracts.  We also believe spending on Operation and Maintenance (O&M) of defense assets, as well as civilian agency infrastructure and equipment, will continue to be a U.S. government priority. We expect our portfolio of capabilities aligns well with U.S. government cost-saving initiatives that demand that users utilize existing equipment and infrastructure rather than executing new purchases and new infrastructure construction. Vectrus’ focus is on sustaining existing base and installed equipment, which we believe aligns with our customers’ intent. Many of the core functions Vectrus performs are mission-essential. The following are examples of a few of these core functions: (i) keeping communication networks operational; (ii) operating and repairing utilities such as electricity and gas; and (iii) providing firefighting services. While customers may reduce the level of service required from our Company, we do not currently anticipate the complete elimination of these services.
            Programs in Afghanistan generally face declining revenue streams going forward; this expectation is reflected in our strategic business plan. Despite our expectation of declining revenue in Afghanistan, we believe we are well positioned to address emerging opportunities with the U.S. government around the world.
The information provided above does not represent a complete list of trends and uncertainties that could impact our business in either the near or long-term. It should, however, be considered along with the risk factors identified under the caption “Risk Factors” identified in Part 1, Item 1A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 and the matters identified under the caption “Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements" herein.
Key Performance and Non-GAAP Measures
The primary financial performance measures Vectrus uses to manage its businesses and monitor results of operations are revenue trends and operating income trends. Management believes that these financial performance measures are the primary drivers for Vectrus’ earnings and net cash from operating activities. Operating income represents revenue less both cost of revenue and SG&A expenses.
We define operating margin as operating income divided by revenue. Cost of revenue consists of labor, subcontracting costs, materials, and an allocation of indirect costs, which includes service center transaction costs. SG&A expenses consist of indirect labor costs (including wages and salaries for executives and administrative personnel), bid and proposal expenses and other general and administrative expenses not allocated to cost of revenue.
We manage the nature and amount of costs at the program level, which forms the basis for estimating our total costs and profitability. Management evaluates its contracts and business performance by focusing on revenue, operating income and operating margin. This is consistent with our approach for managing our business, which begins with management’s approach for assessing the bidding opportunity for each contract and then managing contract profitability throughout the performance period.
In addition to the key performance measures discussed above, we consider adjusted operating income to be useful to management and investors in evaluating our operating performance for the periods presented and to provide a tool for evaluating our ongoing operations. Adjusted operating income is defined as net income, adjusted to exclude: income taxes; interest expense; items that may include, but are not limited to, other income; significant

23


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, such as separation costs incurred to become a stand-alone public company and operating income associated with the Tethered Aerostat Radar System (TARS) program, which was retained by Exelis. 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. Adjusted operating income, however, is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for revenue, operating income, income from continuing operations, or net cash from continuing operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of adjusted operating income from net income is provided below.

Revenue
Revenue for the three and six months ended June 26, 2015, was $309.5 million and $570.4 million, respectively, reflecting decreases of approximately $3.4 million, or 1.1%, and $46.4 million, or 7.5%, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2014. The decline in revenue was attributable mainly to lower activity for our Afghanistan-based contracts. Programs with contract activity in Afghanistan experienced declines of approximately $27.2 million and $64.3 million for the three and six months ended June 26, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014, as maintenance responsibility was transferred to local Afghans on certain contracts and facility service levels were reduced to align to changing U.S. government priorities in Afghanistan. The decrease in revenue was partially offset by a $26.5 million increase in revenue from our core business, including new contracts ACE-IT and Turkey/Spain Base Maintenance.
Cost of Revenue
The decrease in cost of revenue of $1.4 million, or 0.5%, and $32.9 million, or 6.0% for the three and six months ended June 26, 2015, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2014, was primarily due to lower revenue as described above. The cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue increased due to the declining leverage of certain program costs as a result of lower revenue in our Afghanistan-based programs.
Selling, General & Administrative Expenses
For the three and six months ended June 26, 2015, SG&A expenses of $16.1 million and $31.3 million, respectively, decreased by 17.5% and 17.6%, respectively, as compared to $19.5 million and $38.0 million in the same periods in 2014. The decreases were driven by cost reductions implemented during 2014 to align costs with anticipated revenue declines and lower general corporate expenses incurred for separation costs associated with becoming a stand-alone public company. Cost reductions included staff reductions based in Colorado Springs, Colorado as we implemented a leaner headquarters operating model.
Operating Income
Operating income for the three and six months ended June 26, 2015, increased by $1.4 million, or 15.1%, and decreased by $6.8 million, or 25.1%, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2014. Operating income as a percentage of revenue was 3.5% for the three months ended June 26, 2015, compared to 3.0% for the three months ended June 28, 2014. Operating income as a percentage of revenue was 3.5% for the six months ended June 26, 2015, compared to 4.4% for the six months ended June 28, 2014.
During the performance of long-term sales contracts, estimated final contract prices and costs are reviewed periodically and revisions are made as required and recorded as income in the period in which they are determined. Changes in estimated revenue, cost of revenue and the related effect to operating income are recognized using a cumulative catch-up adjustment which recognizes in the current period the cumulative effect of the changes on current and prior periods based on a contract’s percentage of completion. Aggregate cumulative catch-up adjustments for the six months ended June 26, 2015 decreased operating income by approximately $0.1 million and aggregate cumulative catch-up adjustments for the six months ended June 28, 2014 increased operating income by $0.2 million, respectively. Aggregate cumulative catch-up adjustments for the six months ended June 26, 2015 and June 28, 2014 relate to operational efficiencies related primarily to cost savings from decreased staffing levels due to productivity improvements on maturing contracts, decreased subcontract work as we in-sourced work at reduced costs, and lower administrative support required to operate maturing contracts.
Income Tax Expense
We recorded income tax expense of $3.4 million and $3.3 million for the three months ended June 26, 2015 and June 28, 2014, respectively, and $6.2 million and $9.7 million for the six months ended June 26, 2015 and June 28, 2014, respectively, representing effective income tax rates of 36.0% and 35.1%, respectively, and 36.0% and 35.7%, respectively.
Backlog
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) and represents firm orders and potential options on multi-year contracts. Total backlog excludes potential orders under indefinite delivery and indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contracts. The value of the backlog is based on

25


anticipated revenue levels over the anticipated life of the contract. Actual volumes may be greater or less than anticipated. Total backlog is converted into revenue as work is performed. The level of order activity related to DoD programs can be affected by the timing of government funding authorizations and their project evaluation cycles. Year-over-year comparisons could, at times, be impacted by these factors, among others.
We expect to recognize a substantial portion of our funded backlog as revenue within the next 12 months. However, the U.S. government may cancel any contract at any time through a termination for convenience. Most of our contracts have terms that would permit us to recover all or a portion of our incurred costs and fees for work performed in the event of a termination for convenience.
Funded orders decreased approximately $1.3 million to $476.0 million for the six months ended June 26, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014.
Total backlog decreased by $349.5 million in the six months ended June 26, 2015, due to certain Middle East and Afghanistan programs won in 2010 and 2011 nearing the end of their five year period of performance contract life cycle. As of June 26, 2015, total backlog (funded and unfunded) was $2.5 billion.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity
Historically, we have generated operating cash flow sufficient to fund our working capital, capital expenditure and financing requirements. We expect to fund our ongoing working capital, capital expenditure and financing requirements through cash flows from operations, cash on hand and access to capital markets. When necessary, we will utilize our revolving credit facility to satisfy short-term liquidity requirements.
If our cash flows from operations are less than we expect, we may need to access the long-term or short-term capital markets. Although we believe that our current financing arrangements will permit us to finance our operations on acceptable terms and conditions, our access to and the availability of financing on acceptable terms and conditions in the future will be impacted by many factors, including: (i) our credit ratings or absence of a credit rating, (ii) the liquidity of the overall capital markets and (iii) the current state of the economy. We cannot provide assurance that such financing will be available to us on acceptable terms or that such financing will be available at all.
Prior to the Spin-off, the majority of our operations participated in U.S. and international cash management and funding arrangements managed by Exelis where cash was swept from our balance sheet daily and cash to meet our operating and investing needs was provided as needed by Exelis.
The cash presented on our balance sheet consists of U.S. and international cash from wholly owned subsidiaries. The Company does not currently expect that it will be required to repatriate undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries. We expect our U.S. domestic cash resources will be sufficient to fund our U.S. operating activities and cash commitments for financing activities. Approximately $3.1 million of our total $40.0 million in cash at June 26, 2015, is held by our foreign subsidiaries and is not available to fund U.S. operations unless repatriated.
In connection with the Spin-off, we entered into a term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $140.0 million and a five-year senior secured revolving credit facility (the Revolver) which permits borrowings up to $75.0 million, of which $35.0 million will be available for the issuance of letters of credit (see Note 6, "Debt" in the Notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated and combined financial statements). Net proceeds from the term loan were used to fund a $136.3 million distribution to a subsidiary of Exelis on September 26, 2014. As of June 26, 2015, the Company held cash of $40.0 million.

Dividends
We do not currently plan to pay a regular dividend on our common stock. The declaration of any future cash dividends and, if declared, the amount of any such dividends, will depend upon our financial condition, earnings, capital requirements, financial covenants and other contractual restrictions and the discretion of our Board of Directors. In deciding whether to pay future dividends on our common stock, our Board of Directors may take into account such matters as general business conditions, industry practice, our financial condition and performance, our future prospects, our cash needs and capital investment plans, income tax consequences, applicable law and such other factors as our Board of Directors may deem relevant.
Sources and Uses of Liquidity
The following table sets forth net cash (used in) and provided by operating, investing and financing activities for the six months ended June 26, 2015 and June 28, 2014.
Accounts receivable and unbilled receivables are the principal components of our working capital and are generally driven by our level of revenue with other short-term fluctuations related to payment practices by our customers and the timing of our billings. Our receivables reflect amounts billed to our customers, as well as the revenue that was recognized in the preceding month, which is normally billed the month following each balance sheet date.
The total amount of our accounts receivable can vary significantly over time and is sensitive to revenue levels and the timing of payments received from our customers. Days sales outstanding (DSO) is a metric used to monitor accounts receivable levels. Our DSO was 62 and 68 days as of June 26, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

Net cash used in operating activities decreased by $2.8 million for the six months ended June 26, 2015 as compared to the same period in 2014 primarily due to (i) higher contributions from accounts receivables of $3.6 million due to stronger collections in the six months ended June 26, 2015 as compared to the same period in 2014, (ii) changes in billings in excess of cost of $13.7 million driven by the timing of cost incurred and billed and (iii) a decrease in compensation and other employee benefits of $13.6 million driven primarily by the lower costs as a result of previous cost reductions. These changes were partially offset by changes in accounts payable of $18.1 million driven by the timing of payments to vendors, lower net income of $6.4 million and changes in other current assets of $9.6 million primarily due to the prepayment of insurance obligations.
Net cash used in investing activities decreased by $0.3 million for the six months ended June 26, 2015 as compared to the same period in 2014, reflecting higher capital expenditures in 2014.
Net cash used in financing activities decreased by $1.0 million for the six months ended June 26, 2015 as compared to the same period in 2014. Net cash used in financing activities was $1.1 million for the six months ended June 26, 2015 due to $11.3 million in pre-payments and repayments on the Company's long-term debt and net proceeds and payments of insurance financing in the amount of $10.8 million, offset by payments related to employee withholding taxes on share-based compensation in the amount of $0.8 million. Net cash used in financing activities was $2.1 million for the six months ended June 28, 2014 due to transfers to and from Exelis. The components of net transfers included: (i) cash deposits from the Company to Exelis, (ii) cash borrowings Exelis used to fund operations, capital expenditures or acquisitions, (iii) charges (benefits) for income taxes, and (iv) allocations of the corporate expenses of Exelis described in Note 14, “Transactions with Former Parent,” in the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated and combined financial statements.

Capital Resources
At June 26, 2015, the Company held cash of $40.0 million, which included $3.1 million held by foreign subsidiaries, and had $58.1 million of available borrowing capacity under the Revolver which expires on September 17, 2019. We believe that our cash at June 26, 2015, as supplemented by cash flows from operations and borrowings under the Revolver, will be sufficient to fund our anticipated operating costs, capital expenditures and current debt repayment obligations for at least the next 12 months.
Contractual Obligations
During the six months ended June 26, 2015, the Company entered into an arrangement to finance certain of its insurance obligations, which will be completed by the end of the first quarter of 2016. As of June 26, 2015, the balance remaining under this arrangement was $10.8 million. We will repay this amount in 8 equal installments over the course of the fiscal year.
In addition to the scheduled quarterly installment payments due on the Term Facility, the Company has voluntarily prepaid $6.0 million as of June 26, 2015 and intends to voluntarily prepay an additional $6.0 million over the next twelve months.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have obligations relating to operating leases, as discussed above, and letters of credit outstanding. Our Revolver permits borrowings up to $75.0 million, of which $35.0 million is available for the issuance of letters of credit. As of June 26, 2015, there were eight letters of credit outstanding in the aggregate amount of $16.9 million, which reduced our borrowing availability to $58.1 million under the Revolver. These arrangements have not had and management does not believe it is likely that they will in the future have a material effect on our liquidity, capital resources, operations or financial condition. At June 26, 2015, we had no material off-balance sheet arrangements other than letters of credit and operating leases.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES, ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Estimates are revised as additional information becomes available. Management believes that the accounting estimates employed and the resulting balances are reasonable; however, actual results in these areas could differ from management's estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
We believe that the assumptions and estimates associated with revenue recognition, goodwill impairment assessments and income taxes have the greatest potential impact on our financial statements. Therefore, we consider these to be our critical accounting policies and estimates. There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates from those discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.
New Accounting Pronouncements
See Part I, Item 1, Note 2, "Recent Accounting Pronouncements" in the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated and combined financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for information regarding accounting pronouncements and accounting standards updates.

FORWARD-LOOKING AND CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and certain information incorporated herein by reference contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and, as such, may involve risks and uncertainties. All statements included or incorporated by reference in this report, other than statements that are purely historical, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “potential,” “continue” or similar terminology. These statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of the management of the Company based on information currently available to management. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results contemplated by the forward-looking statements.
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 risks and uncertainties relating to the Spin-off, including whether the Spin-off and the related transactions will result in any tax liability, the operational and financial profile of the Company after giving effect to the Spin-off, and the ability of the Company to operate as an independent entity; economic, political and social conditions in the countries in which we conduct our businesses; changes in U.S. or international government defense budgets; protests of new awards; our ability to submit proposals for and/or win all potential opportunities in our pipeline; government regulations and compliance therewith, including changes to the Department of Defense procurement process; changes in technology; intellectual property matters; governmental investigations, reviews, audits and cost adjustments; contingencies related to actual or alleged environmental contamination, claims and concerns; delays in completion of the U.S. government's budget; our success in expanding our geographic footprint or broadening or customer base; our ability to realize the full amounts reflected in our backlog and to retain and renew our existing contracts; impairment of goodwill; misconduct of our employees, subcontractors, agents and business partners; our ability to control costs; our level of indebtedness; subcontractor performance; economic and capital markets conditions; our ability to retain and recruit qualified personnel; security breaches and other disruptions to our information technology and operation; changes in our tax provisions or exposure to additional income tax liabilities; changes in U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP); and other factors described in, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” and elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 and described from time to time in our future reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Vectrus has limited exposure to foreign currency exchange risk as the substantial majority of our business is conducted in U.S. dollars. As a business area within Exelis prior to the Spin-off, Vectrus did not directly experience exposure to the impacts of certain market risks, including those related to equity price risk and interest rate risk. Following the Spin-off, we are subject to interest rate risk with our Senior Secured Term Facility and Revolver, as both require us to pay interest on outstanding borrowings at variable rates. Each one percentage point change associated with the Term Loan Facility would result in a $1.3 million change in our annual cash interest expenses. Assuming our Revolver was fully drawn to a principal amount equal to $75.0 million, each one percentage point change in interest rates would result in a $0.8 million change in our annual cash interest expense.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company's management, with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)) as of June 26, 2015. Based on such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and President and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 26, 2015, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports the Company files or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 26, 2015, that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time we are involved in legal proceedings that are incidental to the operation of our business. Some of these proceedings seek remedies relating to employment matters, matters in connection with our contracts or matters arising under provisions relating to the protection of the environment.
Although the ultimate outcome of any legal matter cannot be predicted with certainty, based on present information, including our assessment of the merits of the particular claim, we do not expect that any asserted or unasserted legal claims or proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our cash flow, results of operations or financial condition.
See Part I, Item 1, Note 15, "Commitments and Contingencies" in the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated and combined financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further information.

We do not believe that there have been any material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed.
