INFORMATION STATEMENT

Computer Sciences Government Services Inc.

Falls Church, Virginia 22042

Common Stock

(par value $0.001)

We are sending you this Information Statement in connection with Computer Sciences Corporation’s spin-off of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Computer Sciences Government Services Inc. or “Computer Sciences GS.” To effect the spin-off, Computer Sciences Corporation, or “CSC,” will distribute all of the shares of Computer Sciences GS common stock on a pro rata basis to the holders of CSC common stock. We expect that the distribution of Computer Sciences GS common stock will be tax-free to CSC stockholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

If you are a record holder of CSC common stock as of the close of business on , 2015, which is the record date for the distribution, you will be entitled to receive one share of Computer Sciences GS common stock for every one share of CSC common stock you hold on that date. CSC will distribute the shares of Computer Sciences GS common stock in book-entry form, which means that we will not issue physical stock certificates.

The distribution will be effective as of p.m., New York City time, on , 2015. Immediately after the distribution becomes effective, we will be an independent publicly-traded company.

CSC’s stockholders are not required to vote on or take any other action in connection with the spin-off. We are not asking you for a proxy, and request that you do not send us a proxy. CSC stockholders will not be required to pay any consideration for the shares of Computer Sciences GS common stock they receive in the spin-off, and they will not be required to surrender or exchange their shares of CSC common stock or take any other action in connection with the spin-off.

CSC currently owns all of the outstanding shares of Computer Sciences GS common stock. Accordingly, no trading market for Computer Sciences GS common stock currently exists. We expect, however, that a limited trading market for Computer Sciences GS common stock, commonly known as a “when-issued” trading market, will develop as early as two trading days prior to the record date for the distribution, and we expect “regular-way” trading of Computer Sciences GS common stock will begin on the first trading day after the distribution date. We intend to list Computer Sciences GS common stock on under the symbol “ .”

SUMMARY

This summary highlights information from this Information Statement and provides an overview of our company, our separation from CSC and CSC’s distribution of our common stock to its stockholders.

Prior to CSC’s distribution of the shares of our common stock to its stockholders, CSC is undertaking a series of internal transactions, following which Computer Sciences GS will hold the businesses constituting CSC’s current North American Public Sector segment, as described in CSC’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 3, 2015, which we refer to as the “Computer Sciences GS Business.” We refer to this series of internal transactions, which is described in more detail under “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Agreements with CSC—Master Separation and Distribution Agreement,” as the “Internal Reorganization.”

We refer to CSC’s distribution of the shares of our common stock to its stockholders as the “Distribution” and to the Internal Reorganization and the Distribution collectively as the “Spin-Off.” We refer to the payment by us of approximately $1.5 billion in cash (or approximately $10.50 per share) concurrently with the Distribution to holders of CSC common stock on the record date as the “Special Dividend.”

Our Company

We deliver information technology (“IT”), mission- and operations-related services across the United States (“U.S.”) federal government to Department of Defense (“DoD”), Intelligence Community, homeland security, civil and healthcare agencies, as well as to certain state and local government agencies. We leverage deep domain-based customer intimacy and decades of experience in helping customers execute their mission with a fundamental understanding of their IT environment that has earned us the ability to introduce next-generation technologies. We bring scalable and more cost-effective IT solutions to government departments and agencies that are seeking to improve mission-critical effectiveness and efficiency through innovation. This approach is designed to yield lower implementation and operational costs as well as a higher standard of delivery excellence. Demand for our U.S. public sector offerings is driven by evolving government priorities such as: (1) migration to next-generation IT solutions, such as hybrid cloud infrastructure, application modernization, and as-a-service delivery, (2) big data solutions, (3) health IT and informatics, (4) cyber security and (5) mobility.

Business Overview

We are one of the nation’s largest independent providers of IT services to the U.S. federal government. With more than five decades of government partnership, we believe we make best practices succeed in government contexts. With public sector customers that include nearly every agency in the U.S. federal government, we leverage our domain expertise and extensive resources to support our customers through dedicated, customer-focused teams.

will operate in two industry verticals: (1) Defense and Intelligence and (2) Civil. Our two horizontal delivery organizations that provide capabilities and solutions across our customer base are: (1) Mission Services and (2) Enterprise Services. We believe we differentiate ourselves by combining our technical expertise in applications and IT infrastructure solutions with our deep public sector mission knowledge and experience in order to engage our customers at the highest levels with thought leadership that drives change.

Strategic Overview

In the U.S. public sector, technology demands are increasing and government customers are increasingly looking for providers with a strong, focused vision to address the unique challenges and resource needs of the U.S. federal government. The success of our business will depend on our ability to deliver solutions that generate real and measurable business results in terms of mission value and cost efficiency. Targeting specific growth areas in the government and rapidly adapting next-generation solutions tailored to the public sector environment will be key. We expect to continue to work in concert with our next-generation IT partners to create, position and deliver innovative solutions from across our delivery capabilities to support our customers’ mission success, which will be critical to our efforts to sustain and grow our market position.

The Spin-Off

Overview

On May 19, 2015, CSC announced plans for our complete legal and structural separation from CSC. To effect the separation, first, CSC will undertake the Internal Reorganization described under “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Agreements with CSC—Master Separation and Distribution Agreement.” Following the Internal Reorganization, Computer Sciences GS, CSC’s wholly-owned subsidiary, will hold the shares of the legal entities operating the Computer Sciences GS Business. Then, CSC will distribute all of Computer Sciences GS’s common stock to CSC’s stockholders, and Computer Sciences GS will become an independent publicly-traded company.

Prior to completion of the Spin-Off, we intend to enter into a Master Separation and Distribution Agreement and several other agreements with CSC related to the Spin-Off. These agreements will govern the relationship between CSC and us up to and after completion of the Spin-Off and allocate between CSC and us various assets, liabilities and obligations, including employee benefits, intellectual property and tax-related assets and liabilities and contingencies. See “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Agreements with CSC” for more detail.

Completion of the Spin-Off is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of a number of conditions. In addition, CSC has the right not to complete the Spin-Off if, at any time, CSC’s board of directors, or the “CSC Board,” determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that the Spin-Off is not in the best interests of CSC or its stockholders, or is otherwise not advisable. See “The Spin-Off—Conditions to the Spin-Off” for more detail. Additionally, prior to the completion of the Spin-Off, we will raise indebtedness estimated at approximately $1.5 billion. The amount of indebtedness to be incurred by us prior to the Spin-Off will be determined by CSC based on its view regarding an appropriate capital structure and amount of leverage for us as a standalone entity. We expect the net proceeds of the indebtedness we incur at or prior to the Distribution to fund some or all of the Special Dividend. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources.”

Questions and Answers about the Spin-Off

The following provides only a summary of the terms of the Spin-Off. You should read the section titled “The Spin-Off” below in this Information Statement for a more detailed description of the matters described below.


Q:	What is the Spin-Off?


A:	The Spin-Off is the method by which we will separate from CSC. In the Spin-Off, CSC will distribute to its stockholders all the outstanding shares of our common stock. Following the Spin-Off, we will be an independent publicly-traded company, and CSC will not retain any ownership interest in us.


Q:	Will the number of CSC shares I own change as a result of the Spin-Off?


A:	No, the number of shares of CSC common stock you own will not change as a result of the Spin-Off.


Q:	What are the reasons for the Spin-Off?


A:	The CSC Board considered the following potential benefits in deciding to pursue the Spin-Off:

•

Strategic Focus and Flexibility. Following the Spin-Off, CSC and Computer Sciences GS will each have a more focused business and be better able to dedicate financial resources to pursue appropriate growth opportunities and execute strategic plans best suited to its respective business. The Spin-Off will also allow each of CSC and Computer Sciences GS to enhance its strategic flexibility to respond to industry dynamics.


•	Focused Management. The Spin-Off will allow the management of each of CSC and Computer Sciences GS to devote its time and attention to the development and implementation of corporate strategies and policies that are based primarily on the specific business characteristics of their respective companies.

•

Management Incentives. The Spin-Off will enable Computer Sciences GS to create incentives for its management and employees that are more closely tied to its business performance and stockholder expectations. Computer Sciences GS’s equity-based compensation arrangements will more closely align the interests of Computer Sciences GS’s management and employees with the interests of its stockholders and should increase Computer Sciences GS’s ability to attract and retain personnel.

•

Capital Structure and Stockholder Flexibility. The segments in which CSC and Computer Sciences GS expect to operate have historically had different growth profiles and cash flow dynamics. The Spin-Off will allow CSC and Computer Sciences GS to separately manage their capital strategies and cost structures and will allow investors to make independent investment decisions with respect to CSC and Computer Sciences GS, including the ability for Computer Sciences GS to achieve alignment with a more natural stockholder base. Investment in one or the other company may appeal to investors with different goals, interests and concerns.


Q:	Why is the separation of Computer Sciences GS structured as a spin-off?


A:	CSC believes that a tax-free distribution of our shares is the most efficient way to separate our business from CSC in a manner that will achieve the above benefits.


Q:	What will I receive in the Spin-Off?

As a holder of CSC common stock, you will receive a dividend of one share of our common stock for every one share of CSC common stock you hold on the Record Date (as defined below). Thus, the distribution agent will distribute only whole shares of our common stock in the Spin-Off. No fractional shares of our common stock will be issued pursuant to the dividend. Your proportionate interest in CSC will not change as a result of the Spin-Off. For a more detailed description, see “The Spin-Off.”


Q:	What is being distributed in the Spin-Off?

CSC will distribute approximately shares of our common stock in the Spin-Off, based on the approximately shares of CSC common stock outstanding as of , 2015. The actual number of shares of our common stock that CSC will distribute will depend on the number of shares of CSC common stock outstanding on the Record Date. The shares of our common stock that CSC distributes will constitute all of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock immediately prior to the Distribution. For more information on the shares being distributed in the Spin-Off, see “Description of Our Capital Stock—Common Stock.”


Q:	What is the record date for the Distribution?


A:	CSC will determine record ownership as of the close of business on , 2015, which we refer to as the “Record Date.”


Q:	When will the Distribution occur?

The Distribution will be effective as of p.m., New York City time, on , 2015, which we refer to as the “Distribution Date.” On or shortly after the Distribution Date, shares of our common stock will be credited in book-entry accounts for stockholders entitled to receive the shares in the Distribution. See “How will CSC distribute shares of our common stock?” for more information on how to access your book-entry account or your bank, brokerage or other account holding the Computer Sciences GS common stock you receive in the Distribution on and following the Distribution Date.


Q:	What do I have to do to participate in the Distribution?

You are not required to take any action, but we urge you to read this document carefully. Holders of CSC common stock on the Record Date will not need to pay any cash or deliver any other consideration, including any shares of CSC common stock, in order to receive shares of our common stock in the Distribution. In addition, no stockholder approval of the Distribution is required. We are not asking you for a vote and request that you do not send us a proxy card.


Q:	If I sell my shares of CSC common stock on or before the Distribution Date, will I still be entitled to receive shares of Computer Sciences GS common stock in the Distribution?


A:	If you hold shares of CSC common stock on the Record Date and decide to sell them on or before the Distribution Date, you may choose to sell your CSC common stock with or without your entitlement to our common stock. You should discuss these alternatives with your bank, broker or other nominee. See “The Spin-Off—Trading Prior to the Distribution Date” for more information.


Q:	How will CSC distribute shares of our common stock?

Registered stockholders: If you are a registered stockholder (meaning you own your shares of CSC common stock directly through CSC’s transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company, N.A.), our distribution agent will credit the shares of our common stock you receive in the Distribution to a new book-entry account with our transfer agent on or shortly after the Distribution Date. Our distribution agent will mail you a book-entry account statement that reflects the number of shares of our common stock you own. You will be able to access information regarding your book-entry account holding the Computer Sciences GS shares at .

“Street name” or beneficial stockholders: If you own your shares of CSC common stock beneficially through a bank, broker or other nominee, your bank, broker or other nominee will credit your account with the shares of our common stock you receive in the Distribution on or shortly after the Distribution Date. Please contact your bank, broker or other nominee for further information about your account.

We will not issue any physical stock certificates to any stockholders, even if requested. See “The Spin-Off—When and How You Will Receive Computer Sciences GS Shares” for a more detailed explanation.


Q:	What are the U.S. federal income tax consequences to me of the Distribution?

For U.S. federal income tax purposes, no gain or loss should be recognized by, or be includible in the income of, a U.S. Holder (as defined in “The Spin-Off—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Spin-Off”) as a result of the Distribution. In addition, the aggregate tax basis of the CSC common stock and our common stock held by each U.S. Holder immediately after the Distribution (and immediately prior to the Special Dividend) should be the same as the aggregate tax basis of the CSC common stock held by the U.S. Holder immediately before the Distribution, allocated between the CSC common stock and our common stock in proportion to their relative fair market values on the date of the Distribution (subject to certain adjustments).

See “The Spin-Off—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Spin-Off” for more information regarding the potential tax consequences to you of the Spin-Off.


Q:	Does Computer Sciences GS intend to pay cash dividends?

We currently anticipate paying quarterly cash dividends following the Spin-Off, subject to our Board’s approval. The timing, declaration, amount and payment of any future dividends to our stockholders will fall within the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on many factors, including our financial condition, results of operations and capital requirements, legal requirements, regulatory constraints, industry practice and other business considerations that our Board of Directors deems relevant from time to time. In addition, the terms of the agreements governing our debt or debt that we may incur in the future may restrict the payments of dividends. See “Dividend Policy” for more information.


Q:	How will Computer Sciences GS common stock trade?


A:	Currently, there is no public market for our common stock. We intend to list our common stock on under the symbol “ .”

We anticipate that trading in our common stock will begin on a “when-issued” basis as early as two trading days prior to the Record Date for the Distribution and will continue up to and including the Distribution Date. “When-issued” trading in the context of a spin-off refers to a sale or purchase made conditionally on or before the Distribution Date because the securities of the spun-off entity have not yet been distributed. “When-issued” trades generally settle within four trading days after the Distribution Date. On the first trading day following the Distribution Date, any “when-issued” trading of our common stock will end and “regular-way” trading will begin. “Regular-way” trading refers to trading after the security has been distributed and typically involves a trade that settles on the third full trading day following the date of the trade. See “The Spin-Off—Trading Prior to the Distribution Date” for more information. We cannot predict the trading prices for our common stock before, on or after the Distribution Date.


Q:	What will be the relationship between CSC and Computer Sciences GS following the Distribution?

Following the Distribution, CSC will not own any of our shares and we will operate independently of CSC. Apart from our Chairman, who will remain Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) of CSC after the Distribution, we do not expect any members of our Board to be officers or directors of CSC. In addition, we do not expect to depend on CSC to conduct our business following the Distribution apart from certain limited transitional support services as well as intellectual property licenses and non-U.S. agency services. In order to govern the ongoing relationships between us and CSC after the Spin-Off and to facilitate an orderly transition, we and CSC intend to enter into agreements providing for various services and rights following the Spin-Off and under which we and CSC will agree to indemnify each other against certain liabilities arising from our respective businesses. These agreements will, among other things, provide arrangements for employee and pension-related matters, tax matters, intellectual property matters as well as transitional services and non-U.S. agency services.

See “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to the Spin-Off” and “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Agreements with CSC” for details.


Q:	Will the Spin-Off affect the trading price of my CSC common stock?

We expect the trading price of shares of CSC common stock immediately following the Distribution to be lower than immediately prior to the Distribution because the trading price will no longer reflect the value of the Computer Sciences GS Business. Furthermore, until the market has fully analyzed the value of CSC without the Computer Sciences GS Business, the trading price of shares of CSC common stock may fluctuate. There can be no assurance that, following the Distribution, the combined trading prices of CSC common stock and our common stock will equal or exceed what the trading price of CSC common stock would have been in the absence of the Spin-Off.

It is possible that after the Spin-Off, the combined market value of the equity of CSC and Computer Sciences GS will be less than CSC’s equity value before the Spin-Off even after adjusting for the effect of the Special Dividend.


Q:	Do I have appraisal rights in connection with the Spin-Off?


A:	No. Holders of CSC common stock are not entitled to appraisal rights in connection with the Spin-Off.


Q:	Who is the transfer agent and registrar for Computer Sciences GS common stock?


A:	Computershare Trust Company, N.A.


Q:	Are there risks associated with owning shares of Computer Sciences GS common stock?


A:	Yes. Our business faces both general and specific risks and uncertainties. Our business also faces risks relating to the Spin-Off. Following the Spin-Off, we will also face risks associated with being an independent publicly-traded company. Accordingly, you should read carefully the information set forth in the section titled “Risk Factors” in this Information Statement.


Q:	Where can I get more information?


A:	If you have any questions relating to the mechanics of the Distribution, you should contact the distribution agent at:

Canton, MA 02021

Summary of the Spin-Off



Distributing Company	Computer Sciences Corporation, a Nevada corporation that holds all of our common stock issued and outstanding prior to the Distribution. After the Distribution, CSC will not own any shares of our common stock.
Distributed Company	Computer Sciences Government Services Inc., a Nevada corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of CSC. At the time of the Distribution, we will hold through our subsidiaries assets and liabilities relating to Computer Sciences GS as well as certain other assets and liabilities allocated to us by CSC. After the Spin-Off, we will be an independent publicly-traded company.
Distributed Securities	100% of our common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Distribution. Based on the approximately shares of CSC common stock outstanding on , 2015, and applying the distribution ratio of one share of Computer Sciences GS common stock for every share of CSC common stock, approximately shares of Computer Sciences GS common stock will be distributed.
Record Date	The Record Date is the close of business on , 2015.
Distribution Date	The Distribution Date is , 2015.
Internal Reorganization	In connection with the Spin-Off, CSC will undertake the Internal Reorganization so that we hold the Computer Sciences GS Business together with certain other assets and liabilities. See “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Agreements with CSC—Master Separation and Distribution Agreement” for a description of the Internal Reorganization.
Distribution Ratio	Each holder of CSC common stock will receive a dividend of one share of our common stock for every one share of CSC common stock it holds on the Record Date. Thus, the distribution agent will distribute only whole shares of our common stock in the Spin-Off. No fractional shares of our common stock will be issued pursuant to the dividend. Please note that if you sell your shares of CSC common stock on or before the Distribution Date, the buyer of those shares may in some circumstances be entitled to receive the shares of our common stock to be distributed in respect of the CSC shares that you sold. See “The Spin-Off—Trading Prior to the Distribution Date” for more detail.
The Distribution	On the Distribution Date, CSC will release the shares of our common stock to the distribution agent to distribute to CSC stockholders. CSC will distribute our shares in book-entry form and thus we will not issue any physical stock certificates. We expect that it will take the distribution agent up to two weeks to electronically issue shares of our common stock to you or your bank or brokerage firm on your behalf by way of direct registration in book-entry form. The ability to trade our shares will not be affected during that time. You will not be required to make any payment, surrender or exchange your shares of CSC common stock or take any other action to receive your shares of our common stock.



Incurrence of Debt	It is anticipated that, prior to the completion of the Spin-Off, Computer Sciences GS will incur approximately $1.5 billion in principal amount of debt, which preliminarily is assumed to consist of $750 million in bank term loans and $750 million in senior notes. The amount and sources of indebtedness to be incurred by us prior to the Spin-Off will be determined by CSC based on its view regarding an appropriate capital structure and amount of leverage for us as a standalone entity. We expect the net proceeds of the indebtedness we incur at or prior to the Distribution to fund some or all of the Special Dividend.
Conditions to the Spin-Off	The Spin-Off is subject to the satisfaction, or the CSC Board’s waiver, of the following conditions:
	•	the CSC Board shall have authorized and approved the Internal Reorganization and Distribution and not withdrawn such authorization and approval, and shall have declared the dividend of Computer Sciences GS common stock to CSC stockholders;
	•	the ancillary agreements contemplated by the Master Separation and Distribution Agreement shall have been executed by each party to those agreements;
	•	the Securities and Exchange Commission (which we refer to in this Information Statement as the “SEC”) shall have declared effective our Registration Statement on Form 10, of which this Information Statement is a part, under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (which we refer to in this Information Statement as the “Exchange Act”), and no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement shall be in effect and no proceedings for that purpose shall be pending before or threatened by the SEC;
	•	our common stock shall have been accepted for listing on or another national securities exchange approved by CSC, subject to official notice of issuance;
	•	CSC shall have received the written opinion of Allen & Overy LLP, which shall remain in full force and effect, that, subject to the accuracy of and compliance with certain representations, warranties and covenants, the Distribution should qualify as tax-free under Section 355 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”);
	•	the Internal Reorganization (as described in “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Agreements with CSC—Master Separation and Distribution Agreement”) shall have been completed;
	•	no order, injunction or decree issued by any governmental authority of competent jurisdiction or other legal restraint or prohibition preventing consummation of the Distribution shall be in effect, and no other event outside the control of CSC shall have occurred or failed to occur that prevents the consummation of the Distribution;
	•	no other events or developments shall have occurred prior to the Distribution Date that, in the judgment of the CSC Board, would result in the Spin-Off having a material adverse effect on CSC or its stockholders;
	•	prior to the Distribution Date, this Information Statement shall have been mailed to the holders of CSC common stock as of the Record Date;



	•	CSC shall have duly elected the individuals to be listed as members of our post-Distribution board of directors in this Information Statement, and such individuals shall be the members of our board of directors, which we refer to as our “Board,” immediately after the Distribution;
	•	prior to the Distribution Date, CSC’s Board shall have obtained opinions from a nationally recognized valuation firm, in form and substance satisfactory to CSC, with respect to the capital adequacy and solvency of each of CSC and Computer Sciences GS after giving pro forma effect to the Distribution and the Special Dividend;
	•	immediately prior to the Distribution Date, our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, each in substantially the form filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement on Form 10 of which this Information Statement is a part, shall be in effect; and
	•	prior to the Distribution Date, CSC shall have transferred its U.S. federal government contracts and subcontracts to one or more wholly-owned subsidiaries of Computer Sciences GS and, for its U.S. federal government prime contracts, it shall have finalized a Change of Name agreement with the Defense Contract Management Agency (“DCMA”).
	The fulfillment of the foregoing conditions will not create any obligation on the part of CSC to effect the Spin-Off. We are not aware of any material federal, foreign or state regulatory requirements with which we must comply, other than SEC rules and regulations, or any material approvals that we must obtain, other than the approval for listing of our common stock and the SEC’s declaration of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, in connection with the Distribution. CSC has the right not to complete the Spin-Off if, at any time, the CSC Board determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that the Spin-Off is not in the best interests of CSC or its stockholders or is otherwise not advisable.
Trading Market and Symbol	We intend to file an application to list our common stock on under the symbol “ .” We anticipate that, as early as two trading days prior to the Record Date, trading of shares of our common stock will begin on a “when-issued” basis and will continue up to and including the Distribution Date, and we expect that “regular-way” trading of our common stock will begin the first trading day after the Distribution Date. We also anticipate that, as early as two trading days prior to the Record Date, there will be two markets in CSC common stock: (i) a “regular-way” market on which shares of CSC common stock will trade with an entitlement for the purchaser of CSC common stock to receive shares of our common stock to be distributed in the Distribution, and (ii) an “ex-distribution” market on which shares of CSC common stock will trade without an entitlement for the purchaser of CSC common stock to receive shares of our common stock. See “The Spin-Off—Trading Prior to the Distribution Date.”



Tax Consequences to CSC Stockholders	For U.S. federal income tax purposes, no gain or loss should be recognized by, or be includible in the income of, a U.S. Holder (as defined in “The Spin-Off—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Spin-Off”) as a result of the Distribution. In addition, the aggregate tax basis of the CSC common stock and our common stock held by each U.S. Holder immediately after the Distribution (and immediately prior to the Special Dividend) should be the same as the aggregate tax basis of the CSC common stock held by the U.S. Holder immediately before the Distribution, allocated between the CSC common stock and our common stock in proportion to their relative fair market values on the date of the Distribution (subject to certain adjustments). See “The Spin-Off—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Spin-Off.” We urge you to consult your tax advisor as to the specific tax consequences of the Distribution to you, including the effect of any U.S. federal, state, local or foreign tax laws and of changes in applicable tax laws.
Relationship with CSC after the Spin-Off	Following the Distribution, CSC will not own any of our shares and we will operate independently of CSC. In addition, we do not expect to depend on CSC to conduct our business following the Distribution apart from certain limited transitional support services as well as intellectual property licenses and non-U.S. agency services. In order to govern the ongoing relationships between us and CSC after the Spin-Off and to facilitate an orderly transition, we and CSC intend to enter into agreements providing for various services and rights following the Spin-Off and under which we and CSC will agree to indemnify each other against certain liabilities arising from our respective businesses. These agreements include:
	•	a Master Separation and Distribution Agreement that will set forth CSC’s and our agreements regarding the principal actions that both parties will take in connection with the Spin-Off and aspects of our relationship following the Spin-Off;
	•	a Master Transition Services Agreement pursuant to which CSC and we will provide each other specified services on a transitional basis to help ensure an orderly transition following the Spin-Off;
	•	a Tax Matters Agreement that will govern the respective rights, responsibilities and obligations of CSC and us after the Spin-Off with respect to all tax matters and will include restrictions to preserve the tax-free status of the Distribution;
	•	an Employee Matters Agreement that will address employment, compensation and benefits matters, including the allocation and treatment of assets and liabilities arising out of employee compensation and benefits programs in which our employees participated prior to the Distribution as well as matters relating to transfer to and assumption by us of assets and liabilities related to defined benefit pension plans;
	•	a Real Estate Matters Agreement that will address the sharing and leasing of facilities owned by CSC and/or us following the Distribution Date;
	•	an Intellectual Property Matters Agreement that will govern the respective rights to intellectual property developed by CSC and us including limitations on our ability to use intellectual property for certain purposes and on behalf of certain customers other than the U.S. federal government;



	•	a Non-competition Agreement that will restrict CSC from engaging in certain business activities relating to the U.S. federal government for a period after the Distribution and restrict us from engaging in certain business activities for shared state and local customers for a period after the distribution; and
	•	a Non-U.S. Agency Agreement that will appoint CSC as our exclusive agent outside the U.S. for certain non-U.S. customers.
	We describe these arrangements in greater detail under “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Agreements with CSC,” and describe some of the risks of these arrangements under “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to the Spin-Off.”
Dividend Policy	We currently anticipate paying quarterly cash dividends following the Spin-Off. The timing, declaration, amount and payment of any future dividends to our stockholders will fall within the discretion of our Board and will depend on many factors, including our financial condition, results of operations and capital requirements, legal requirements, regulatory constraints, industry practice and other business considerations that our Board deems relevant from time to time. In addition, the terms of the agreements governing our debt or debt that we may incur in the future may restrict the payments of dividends. See “Dividend Policy.”
Transfer Agent	Computershare Trust Company, N.A.
Risk Factors	Our business faces both general and specific risks and uncertainties. Our business also faces risks relating to the Spin-Off. Following the Spin-Off, we will also face risks associated with being an independent publicly-traded company. Accordingly, you should read carefully the information set forth under “Risk Factors.”

Summary Historical and Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Data

The following table presents our summary historical and unaudited pro forma combined financial data. The combined statement of operations data and the combined statement of cash flows data for each of the twelve months ended April 3, 2015, March 28, 2014 and March 29, 2013, and the combined balance sheet data as of April 3, 2015 and March 28, 2014 set forth below are derived from our audited combined financial statements included in this Information Statement.

The summary unaudited pro forma combined financial information as of and for the twelve months ended April 3, 2015 is based upon the historical combined financial information of Computer Sciences GS included elsewhere in this Information Statement, and has been prepared to reflect the Spin-Off.

The summary financial data should be read in conjunction with our “Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Statements,” “Capitalization,” “Selected Historical Combined Financial Data,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and the audited combined financial statements and accompanying notes included in this Information Statement. The financial information included herein 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. In addition, our historical financial information does not reflect changes that we expect to experience in the future as a result of our separation from CSC, including changes in the financing, operations, cost structure and personnel needs of our business. Further, the historical financial information includes allocations of certain CSC corporate expenses. We believe the assumptions and methodologies underlying the allocation of these expenses are reasonable. Such expenses may not, however, be indicative of the expenses that we would have incurred if we had operated as an independent, publicly-traded company during the period presented or of the costs expected to be incurred in the future.

RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider all of the information in this Information Statement and each of the risks described below, which we believe are the principal risks that we face. Some of the risks relate to our business, others to the Spin-Off. Some risks relate principally to the securities markets and ownership of our common stock.

Any of the following risks could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations and the actual outcome of matters as to which forward-looking statements are made in this Information Statement. In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment. While we believe we have identified and discussed below the material risks affecting our business, there may be additional risks and uncertainties that we do not presently know or that we do not currently believe to be material that may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations in the future.

Past performance may not be a reliable indicator of future financial performance. Future performance and historical trends may be adversely affected by the following factors, as well as other variables, and should not be relied upon to project future period results.

Risks Relating to Our Business

Contracts with the U.S. federal government and its prime contractors account for most of our revenue and earnings; consequently, a decline in the U.S. federal government budget, changes in spending or budgetary priorities or delays in contract awards may significantly and adversely affect our future revenues and limit our growth prospects.

We generated approximately 91% of our total revenues for the twelve months ended April 3, 2015 from sales to the U.S. federal government either as a prime contractor or subcontractor to other contractors. We generated approximately 53% of our total revenues from the DoD (including all branches of the U.S. military) and Intelligence Community and approximately 38% of our total revenues from civilian agencies. We expect to continue to derive most of our revenues from work performed under U.S. federal government contracts.

We also provide services to state and local governments. Approximately 8% of our total revenues for fiscal 2015 were generated from state government contracts.

Because we derive a substantial majority of our revenue from contracts with the U.S. federal government, we believe that the success and development of our business will continue to depend on our successful participation in U.S. federal government contract programs. Changes in U.S. federal government budgetary priorities could directly affect our financial performance. A significant decline in government expenditures, a shift of expenditures away from programs that we support or a change in U.S. federal government contracting policies could cause U.S. federal government agencies to reduce their purchases under contracts, to exercise their right to terminate contracts at any time without penalty or not to exercise options to renew contracts. Consequently, we closely monitor federal budget, legislative and contracting trends and activities and continually examine our strategies to take these into consideration.

The U.S. federal government continues to face significant fiscal and economic challenges such as financial deficits and the debt ceiling limit. The Administration and Congress make decisions in a constrained fiscal environment largely imposed by the Budget Control Act of 2011 (the “Budget Act”). The Budget Act established limits on discretionary spending that began with U.S. federal government fiscal year (“GFY”) 2012 (a GFY starts on October 1 and ends on September 30). The Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013 (the “BBA”) that was signed into law on December 26, 2013 did not significantly alter the spending constraints established by the Budget Act.

The Budget Act provided for additional automatic spending reductions, known as sequestration, which went into effect on March 1, 2013, and further reduced planned government spending. The BBA extended the sequestration budget caps into GFY 2023. While the defense budget sustained the largest single reduction, civil agencies and programs were also impacted significantly by sequestration cuts. In light of the Budget Act, the BBA

and other deficit reduction pressures, it is likely that discretionary spending by the U.S. federal government will remain constrained for the foreseeable future. As a result of sequestration, our U.S. federal government customers are more cautious with contract awards and spending, resulting in longer procurement cycles, smaller award values and an inclination towards an extension of existing customer contracts, and we expect this behavior to continue.

We are continuously reviewing our operations in an attempt to identify those programs that could be at risk so that we can make appropriate contingency plans. While we have experienced reduced funding on some of our programs, and may see further reductions, we do not expect the cancellation of any of our major programs. Although sequestration continued into GFY 2014, the BBA revised the amount of discretionary spending to be reduced for GFY 2014 and GFY 2015 under the Budget Act. Even with the reduced amount of sequestration for GFY 2014 and GFY 2015, the resulting automatic across-the-board budget cuts are having, and may continue to have, significant consequences for our business and industry.

Our business could be adversely affected by delays caused by our competitors protesting major contract awards received by us, resulting in delay of the initiation of work.

Our contracts and subcontracts are composed of a wide range of contract types, including firm fixed-price, cost reimbursement, and time-and-materials. Some contracts are ordering vehicles, including indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity and government-wide acquisition contracts such as General Services Administration (“GSA”) schedule contracts, and orders under these contracts include firm fixed-price, time-and-materials or cost reimbursable types. We expect that a majority of the business that we seek in the foreseeable future will be awarded through a competitive bidding process. The U.S. federal government has increasingly relied on contracts that are subject to a competitive bidding process, including indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity, GSA schedule and other multi-award contracts, which has resulted in greater competition, increased pricing pressure and more protested awards. It can take many months to resolve protests by one or more of our competitors of contract or task order awards we receive. The resulting delay in the start-up and funding of the work under these vehicles may cause our actual results to differ materially and adversely from those anticipated. Due to the competitive process to obtain contracts and an increase in bid protests, we may be unable to achieve or sustain revenue growth and profitability.

Our U.S. federal government contracts may be terminated by the government at any time and may contain other provisions permitting the government not to continue with contract performance and, if lost contracts are not replaced, our operating results may differ materially and adversely from those anticipated.

We derive substantially all of our revenue from U.S. federal government contracts that typically span one or more base years and one or more option years. The option periods typically cover more than half of a contract’s potential duration. U.S. federal government agencies generally have the right not to exercise these option periods. In addition, our contracts typically also contain provisions permitting a government customer to terminate the contract for its convenience. A decision not to exercise option periods or to terminate contracts for convenience could result in significant revenue shortfalls from those anticipated. If the government terminates a contract for convenience, we may recover only our incurred or committed costs, settlement expenses and profit on work completed prior to the termination. If the government terminates a contract for default, we may be unable to recover even those amounts and instead may be liable for excess costs incurred by the government in procuring undelivered items and services from another source. As is common with government contractors, we have experienced and continue to experience occasional performance issues under certain of our contracts. Depending upon the value of the matters affected, a performance problem that impacts our performance of a program or contract could cause our actual results to differ materially and adversely from those anticipated.

Our state and local government contracts subject us to similar budgetary and termination risks. Unlike U.S. federal government contracts, where limitations of liability are established in the Federal Acquisition Regulation (the “FAR”) and agency supplements, state and local government contracts have negotiated liability limits that are often higher than typical commercial liability caps and, in some instances, are uncapped.

U.S. federal government contracts contain numerous provisions that are unfavorable to us.

U.S. federal government contracts contain provisions and are subject to laws and regulations that give the government rights and remedies, some of which are not typically found in commercial contracts, including allowing the government to:


•	cancel multi-year contracts and related orders if funds for contract performance for any subsequent year become unavailable;


•	claim rights in systems and software developed by us;


•	suspend or debar us from doing business with the U.S. federal government or with a governmental agency;


•	impose fines and penalties and subject us to criminal prosecution;


•	control or prohibit the export of our data and technology; and


•	impose special handling and control requirements for controlled unclassified information.

Certain contracts also contain organizational conflict of interest (“OCI”) clauses that limit our ability to compete for or perform certain other contracts. OCIs arise any time we engage in activities that: (i) make us unable or potentially unable to render impartial assistance or advice to the government; (ii) impair or might impair our objectivity in performing contract work; or (iii) provide us with an unfair competitive advantage. For example, when we work on the design of a particular system, we may be precluded from competing for the contract to develop and install that system or supporting a prime contractor. We have divested lines of business in the past to avoid and/or mitigate OCIs. Depending upon the value of the matters affected, an OCI issue that precludes our participation in, or performance of, a program or contract could cause our actual results to differ materially and adversely from those anticipated.

Our failure to comply with a variety of complex procurement rules and regulations could result in our being liable for penalties, including termination of our U.S. federal government contracts, disqualification from bidding on future U.S. federal government contracts and suspension or debarment from U.S. federal government contracting.

We must comply with laws and regulations relating to the formation, administration and performance of U.S. federal government contracts, which affect how we do business with our customers and may impose added costs on our business. Some significant statutes and regulations that affect us include:


•	the FAR and agency supplements, which regulate the formation, administration and performance of U.S. federal government contracts;


•	the Truth in Negotiations Act, which requires certification and disclosure of cost and pricing data in connection with certain contract negotiations;


•	the Procurement Integrity Act, which regulates access to competitor bid and proposal information and government source selection information, and our ability to provide compensation to certain former government officials;


•	the Civil False Claims Act, which provides for substantial civil penalties for violations, including for submission of a false or fraudulent claim to the U.S. federal government for payment or approval; and


•	the U.S. Government Cost Accounting Standards, which impose accounting requirements that govern our right to reimbursement under certain cost-based U.S. federal government contracts.

Our business is subject to reviews, audits and cost adjustments by the U.S. federal government which, if resolved unfavorably, could adversely affect our profitability, cash position or growth prospects.

U.S. federal government agencies, including the Defense Contract Audit Agency (“DCAA”), the DCMA and others, routinely audit and/or review a contractor’s performance on government contracts, indirect rates and pricing practices, and compliance with applicable contracting and procurement laws, regulations and standards. They also review the adequacy of the contractor’s compliance with government standards for its business systems, including its accounting system, earned value management system, estimating system, materials management and accounting system, property management system and purchasing system.

Both contractors and the U.S. federal government agencies conducting these audits and reviews have come under increased scrutiny. As a result, the current audits and reviews have a greater scope, have become more rigorous and the standards to which we are held are being more strictly interpreted, increasing the likelihood of an audit or review resulting in an adverse outcome. During the course of its audits, the DCAA has made unfavorable audit findings and recommendations with regard to the qualifications of employees and subcontractors for contract labor categories that were charged under contracts and have concluded that costs we deemed to be allowable costs under the FAR cost principles were unallowable. We have vigorously disputed many of the DCAA’s findings over the years. Some of these audits have been resolved through negotiation with a lesser amount recovered by the government while other audit findings remain in dispute. This is a typical pattern for us and the DCAA that we expect to continue.

A finding of significant control deficiencies in our system audits or other reviews can result in decremented billing rates to our U.S. federal government customers until the control deficiencies are corrected and our corrections are accepted by the DCMA. Government audits and reviews may conclude that our practices are not consistent with applicable laws and regulations and result in adjustments to contract costs and mandatory customer refunds. Such adjustments can be applied retroactively, which could result in significant customer refunds. The receipt of adverse audit findings or the failure to obtain an “approved” determination of our various accounting and management internal control systems from the responsible U.S. federal government agency could significantly and adversely affect our business, including our ability to bid on new contracts and our competitive position in the bidding process. A determination of non-compliance with applicable contracting and procurement laws, regulations and standards could also result in the U.S. federal government imposing penalties and sanctions against us, including the withholding of payments, suspension of payments and increased government scrutiny that could delay or adversely affect our ability to invoice and receive timely payment on contracts, perform contracts or compete for contracts with the U.S. federal government. Most of our subcontractors are subject to these same regulatory requirements. As a prime contractor, we may incur additional costs or our ability to invoice and receive timely payment on contracts may be affected if a subcontractor does not comply with these regulations and its lack of compliance affects our performance under a prime contract.

CSC’s indirect cost audits by the DCAA have not been completed for fiscal 2004 and subsequent fiscal years. Although we have recorded contract revenues subsequent to fiscal 2003 based upon our estimate of costs that we believe will be approved upon final audit or review, we do not know the outcome of any ongoing or future audits or reviews and adjustments and, if future adjustments exceed our estimates, our profitability would be adversely affected.

Our state and local government contracts are also subject to audits and reviews by state and local government agencies including state comptrollers and inspector generals. Where federal funds are used by a state to fund all or part of a contract we perform, the state and the Computer Sciences GS Business may be subject to audit by a U.S. federal government agency and/or the Government Accountability Office. See “Business—Legal Proceedings” for more information.

Our business is subject to governmental review and investigation which could adversely affect our profitability, cash position and growth prospects.

We are routinely subject to governmental investigations relating to our contracts and operations. If a review or investigation identifies improper or illegal activities, we may be subject to civil or criminal penalties or administrative sanctions, including the termination of contracts, forfeiture of profits, the triggering of price reduction clauses, suspension of payments, fines and suspension or debarment from doing business with governmental agencies. We may suffer harm to our reputation if allegations of impropriety are made against us, which would impair our ability to win new contract awards or receive contract renewals. Penalties and sanctions are not uncommon in our industry. If we incur a material penalty or administrative sanction or otherwise suffer harm to our reputation, our profitability, cash position and future prospects could be adversely affected.

More generally, increases in scrutiny and investigations from government organizations, legislative bodies or agencies into business practices and major programs supported by contractors may lead to increased legal costs and may harm our reputation, profitability, growth prospects and ability to recruit and retain employees.

If our customers request out-of-scope work, we may not be able to collect our receivables, which would materially and adversely affect our profitability.

We may perform work for the U.S. federal government and state governments, with respect to which we must file requests for equitable adjustment or claims with the proper agency to seek recovery in whole or in part, for out-of-scope work directed or caused by the government customer in support of its critical missions. While we may resort to other methods to pursue our claims or collect our receivables, these methods are expensive and time consuming and successful collection is not guaranteed. Failure to collect our receivables or prevail on our claims would have an adverse effect on our profitability.

The U.S. federal government may adopt new contract rules and regulations or revise its procurement practices in a manner adverse to us at any time.

Our industry has experienced, and we expect it will continue to experience, significant changes to business practices as a result of an increased focus on affordability, efficiencies and recovery of costs, among other items. U.S. federal government agencies may face restrictions or pressure regarding the type and amount of services that they may obtain from private contractors. Legislation, regulations and initiatives dealing with procurement reform, mitigation of potential conflicts of interest, deterrence of fraud and environmental responsibility or sustainability, as well as any resulting shifts in the buying practices of U.S. federal government agencies, such as increased usage of fixed-price contracts, multiple award contracts and small business set-aside contracts, could have adverse effects on government contractors, including us. Any of these changes could impair our ability to obtain new contracts or renew our existing contracts when those contracts are recompeted. Any new contracting requirements or procurement methods could be costly or administratively difficult for us to implement and could adversely affect our future revenues, profitability and prospects.

Misconduct of employees, subcontractors, agents and business partners could cause us to lose existing contracts or customers and adversely affect our ability to obtain new contracts and customers and could have a significant adverse impact on our business and reputation.

Misconduct could include fraud or other improper activities such as falsifying time or other records and violations of laws and regulations, including anti-corruption laws. Other examples could include the failure to comply with our Code of Business Conduct, policies and procedures or with federal, state or local government procurement regulations, rules regarding the use and safeguarding of classified or other protected information, legislation regarding the pricing of labor and other costs in government contracts, laws and regulations relating to environmental, health or safety matters, bribery of foreign government officials, international trade controls (particularly the International Traffic and Arms Regulations), lobbying or similar activities and any other applicable laws or regulations. Any data loss or information security lapses resulting in the compromise of personal information or the improper use or disclosure of sensitive or classified information could result in claims, remediation costs,

regulatory sanctions against us, loss of current and future contracts and serious harm to our reputation. Although we have implemented policies, procedures and controls to prevent and detect these activities, these precautions may not prevent all misconduct and, as a result, we could face unknown risks or losses. Our failure to comply with applicable laws or regulations or misconduct by any of our employees, subcontractors, agents or business partners could damage our reputation and subject us to fines and penalties, restitution or other damages, loss of security clearance, loss of current and future customer contracts and suspension or debarment from contracting with federal, state or local government agencies, any of which would adversely affect our business and our future results.

Our ability to perform services for certain of our U.S. federal government customers is dependent on our ability to maintain necessary security clearances.

Select U.S. federal government customers require us to maintain security clearances for certain of our facilities used in the performance of classified contracts. Employees who perform under certain government contracts are required to possess appropriate personnel security clearances for access to classified information granted by the respective government agency. The competition for qualified personnel who possess security clearance is very strong in certain public sector markets. In the event that a government customer were to revoke the facility and/or personnel clearances of all or substantially all of the employees performing work under a classified contract, such revocation could be grounds for termination of the contract by the government customer. Similarly, if we are unable to hire sufficient qualified and cleared personnel to meet contractual commitments, a contract could be terminated for non-performance. Under either circumstance, such termination, depending on the contract value, could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

We have contracts with the U.S. federal government that are classified which may limit investor insight into portions of our business.

We derive a portion of our revenues from classified programs with the U.S. federal government that are subject to security restrictions which preclude the dissemination of information that is classified for national security purposes. We are limited in our ability to provide information about these classified programs, their risks or any disputes or claims relating to such programs. As a result, investors may have less insight into our classified programs than our other programs and therefore less ability to fully evaluate the risks related to our classified business.

Our failure to attract and retain qualified employees, including our senior management team, could adversely affect our business.

Our success depends to a substantial degree on our ability to recruit and retain the technically-skilled personnel we need to serve our customers effectively. Our business involves the development of tailored solutions for our customers, a process that relies heavily upon the expertise and services of our employees. Accordingly, our employees are our most valuable resource. Competition for skilled personnel in the IT services industry is intense, and technology service companies often experience high attrition among their skilled employees. There is a shortage of people capable of filling these positions, particularly those with government security clearances, and they are likely to remain a limited resource for the foreseeable future. Recruiting and training these personnel require substantial resources. Our failure to attract and retain technical personnel could increase our costs of performing our contractual obligations, reduce our ability to efficiently satisfy our customers’ needs, limit our ability to win new business and cause our actual results to differ materially and adversely from those anticipated.

In addition to attracting and retaining qualified technical personnel, we believe that our success will depend on the continued employment of our senior management team and its ability to generate new business and execute projects successfully. Our senior management team is very important to our business because personal reputations and individual business relationships are a critical element of obtaining and maintaining customer engagements in our industry, particularly with agencies performing classified operations. The loss of any of our senior executives could cause us to lose customer relationships or new business opportunities, which could cause actual results to differ materially and adversely from those anticipated.

Our markets are highly competitive, and many of the companies we compete against have substantially greater resources.

The markets in which we operate include a large number of participants and are highly competitive. Many of our competitors may compete more effectively than we can because they are larger, better financed and better known companies than we are. In order to stay competitive in our industry, we must also keep pace with changing technologies and customer preferences. If we are unable to differentiate our services from those of our competitors, our revenue may decline. In addition, our competitors have established relationships among themselves or with third parties to increase their ability to address customer needs. As a result, new competitors or alliances among competitors may emerge and compete more effectively than we can. There is also a significant industry trend towards consolidation, which may result in the emergence of companies which are better able to compete against us. The results of these competitive pressures could cause our actual results to differ materially and adversely from those anticipated.

We may not realize as revenues the full amounts reflected in our backlog, which could adversely affect our expected future revenues and growth prospects.

As of April 3, 2015, our total backlog was $11.1 billion, which included $2.6 billion in funded backlog. Due to the U.S. federal government’s ability to not exercise contract options or to terminate, modify or curtail our programs or contracts and the rights of our state customers to cancel contracts and purchase orders in certain circumstances, we may realize less than expected or in some cases never realize revenues from some of the contracts that are included in our backlog. Our unfunded backlog, in particular, contains management’s estimate of amounts expected to be realized on unfunded contract work that may never be realized as revenues. If we fail to realize as revenues amounts included in our backlog, our expected future revenues, growth prospects and profitability could be adversely affected.

Our earnings and profitability may vary based on the mix of our contracts and may be adversely affected by our failure to accurately estimate and manage costs, time and resources.

We generate revenues under various types of contracts, which include cost reimbursement, time-and-materials, fixed-price-level-of-effort and firm-fixed-price contracts. The accounting for these contracts requires judgment relative to assessing risks, estimating contract revenues and costs, and making assumptions for schedule and technical issues. Our earnings and profitability may vary materially depending on changes in the proportionate amount of revenues derived from each type of contract, the nature of offerings provided, our ability to negotiate advantageous reseller agreements with vendors as well as the achievement of performance objectives and the stage of performance at which the right to receive fees, particularly under incentive and award fee contracts, is finally determined. Subcontractors’ assertions are also assessed and considered in estimating costs and profitability. In addition, our contracts contain provisions relating to cost controls and audit rights.

To varying degrees, each contract type involves some risk that we could underestimate the costs and resources necessary to fulfill the contract. Cost reimbursement and time-and-materials contracts generally have lower profitability than firm fixed-price contracts; however, due to their nature, fixed-price contract types tend to have more risk than cost type contracts. While firm fixed-price contracts allow us to benefit from cost savings, these contracts also increase our exposure to the risk of cost overruns. Revenues derived from firm fixed-price contracts represented approximately 44% of our total revenues for fiscal 2015. When making proposals on these types of contracts, we rely heavily on our estimates of costs and timing for completing the associated projects, as well as assumptions regarding technical issues. In each case, our failure to accurately estimate costs or the resources and technology needed to perform our contracts or to effectively manage and control our costs during the performance of our work could result, and in some instances has resulted, in reduced profits or in losses.

More generally, any increased or unexpected costs or unanticipated delays in connection with the performance of our contracts, including costs and delays caused by contractual disputes or other factors outside of our control, such as performance failures of our subcontractors, government shutdown due to congressional inaction, the effect of any changes in laws or regulations, natural disasters or other force majeure events, could make our contracts less

profitable than expected or unprofitable. Our profitability is adversely affected when we incur contract costs that we cannot bill to our customers.

Internal system or service failures, including as a result of cyber or other security threats, could disrupt our business and impair our ability to effectively provide our services to our customers, which could damage our reputation and have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

We create, deploy, and maintain IT and engineering systems, and provide services that are often critical to our customers’ missions, some of which involve sensitive information and may be conducted in war zones or other hazardous environments. As a result, we are subject to systems or service failures, not only resulting from our own failures or the failures of third-party service providers, natural disasters, power shortages, or terrorist attacks, but also from continuous exposure to cyber and other security threats, including computer malware and attacks by computer hackers or physical break-ins. There has been an increase in the frequency and sophistication of the cyber and security threats we face, with attacks ranging from those common to businesses generally to those that are more advanced and persistent, which may target us because we hold controlled unclassified, classified or other sensitive information. As a result, we face a heightened risk of a security breach or disruption with respect to sensitive information resulting from an attack by computer hackers, foreign governments, and cyber terrorists. We have been the target of these types of attacks in the past and future attacks are likely to occur. Threat incidents identified to date have not resulted in a material adverse effect on us or our business operations. Our security measures are designed to identify and protect against security breaches and cyber attacks; however, if successful, these types of attacks on our network or other systems or service failures could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations, due to, among other things, the loss of customer or proprietary data, interruptions or delays in our customers’ businesses and damage to our reputation. In addition, the failure or disruption of our systems, communications or utilities could cause us to interrupt or suspend our operations, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. In addition, if our employees inadvertently do not adhere to appropriate information security protocols, our protocols are inadequate, or our employees intentionally avoid these protocols, our or our customers’ sensitive information may be released thereby causing significant negative impacts to our reputation and could expose us or our customers to liability.

If our systems, services or other applications have significant defects or errors, are successfully attacked by cyber and other security threats, suffer delivery delays, or otherwise fail to meet our customers’ security expectations, we may:


•	lose revenue due to adverse customer reaction;


•	be required to provide additional services or remediation to a customer at no charge;


•	incur additional costs related to monitoring and increasing our security posture;


•	lose revenue due to the deployment of internal staff for remediation efforts instead of performing billable work;


•	receive negative publicity, which could damage our reputation and adversely affect our ability to attract or retain customers;


•	suffer claims by customers or impacted third parties for substantial damages, particularly as a result of any successful network or systems breach and exfiltration of customer and/or third-party information; or


•	lose our ability to perform and pursue classified work and/or experience a suspension of our export privileges.

In addition to any costs resulting from contract performance or required corrective action, these failures may result in increased costs or loss of revenue if they result in customers postponing subsequently scheduled work or canceling or failing to renew contracts.

The costs related to cyber or other security threats or disruptions may not be fully insured or indemnified by other means. Additionally, some cyber technologies and techniques that we utilize or develop may raise potential liabilities related to legal compliance, intellectual property and civil liberties, including privacy concerns, which may not be fully insured or indemnified. Our errors and omissions insurance coverage may not continue to be available on reasonable terms or in sufficient amounts to cover one or more large claims or the insurer may disclaim coverage as to some types of future claims. The successful assertion of any large claim against us could seriously harm our business. Even if not successful, these claims could result in significant legal and other costs, may be a distraction to our management and may harm our customer relationships. In certain new business areas, we may not be able to obtain sufficient insurance and may decide not to accept or solicit business in these areas.

As a contractor supporting national security customers, we are also subject to regulatory compliance requirements under the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulations and other federal regulations requiring that our networks and IT systems comply with the security and privacy controls in National Institute of Standards and Technology Special Publication 800-53. Failure to comply with the security control requirements could result in our ineligibility to bid for certain agency contracts.

The strength of our financial capitalization and our credit ratings may impact our borrowing costs, our ability to raise additional capital for future needs, and our competitiveness.

We expect our balance sheet to be capitalized consistent with an investment grade credit profile and expect to execute financial policies consistent with such strategy. However, there is no assurance that our credit ratings will reflect such capitalization or financial policies, as our credit ratings are determined by credit rating agencies from their own independent review, assessment and information sources. Our credit ratings are subject to revision, suspension or withdrawal by one or more rating agencies at any time. Rating agencies may review our credit ratings due to developments that are beyond our control, including as a result of new standards requiring the agencies to reassess rating practices and methodologies.

If adverse changes in our credit ratings were to occur, it could result in higher borrowing costs, may limit our access to capital markets or may negatively impact our financial condition and the market price for our common stock. Any ratings downgrades could negatively impact the perception of us by lenders and other third parties, including our customers. Some of our customer contracts are long-term and mission critical to our customers’ operations, and we believe that our credit ratings may be relied upon to assess our financial strength and our financial wherewithal to perform such critical services. In certain situations, we are required to procure financial surety bonds in order to guarantee our financial performance, and the cost of such surety bonds may increase as a result of adverse changes in our credit ratings.

We may make acquisitions, which could involve inherent risks and uncertainties.

We may make acquisitions, which could involve inherent risks and uncertainties, including:


•	the difficulty in integrating newly acquired businesses and operations in an efficient and effective manner and acclimating the employees to our culture of compliance, integrity and values;


•	the challenge in achieving strategic objectives, cost savings and other anticipated benefits;


•	the potential loss of key employees of the acquired businesses;


•	the potential diversion of senior management’s attention from our operations;


•	the risks associated with integrating financial reporting and internal control systems;


•	the difficulty in expanding IT systems and other business processes to incorporate the acquired businesses;


•	potential future impairments of goodwill associated with the acquired businesses; and


•	in some cases, the potential for increased regulation.

If an acquired business fails to operate as anticipated, cannot be successfully integrated with our existing business, or one or more of the other risks and uncertainties identified occur in connection with our acquisitions, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.

Our ability to pursue strategic acquisitions and partnerships may impact our ability to compete in the markets we serve.

Besides pursuing organic growth, we intend to explore potential strategic acquisitions that could allow us to expand our operations. However, we may be unable to identify attractive candidates or complete acquisitions on terms favorable to us. In addition, our ability to successfully integrate the operations we acquire and leverage these operations to generate revenue and earnings growth may significantly impact future revenue and earnings as well as investor returns. Integrating acquired operations is a significant challenge and there is no assurance that we will be able to manage such integrations successfully. Failure to successfully integrate acquired operations may adversely affect our cost structure, thereby reducing our margins and return on investment.

We have also entered into, and expect to seek to enter into additional strategic partnerships with other industry participants as part of an effort to expand our business. However, we may be unable to identify attractive strategic partnership candidates or complete such partnerships on terms favorable to us. In addition, if we are unable to successfully implement our partnership strategies or our strategic partners do not fulfill their obligations or otherwise do not prove advantageous to our business, our investments in such partnerships and our anticipated business expansion could be adversely affected.

Achieving our growth objectives may prove unsuccessful. We may be unable to identify future attractive acquisitions and strategic partnerships, which may adversely affect our growth. In addition, our ability to consummate or integrate acquisitions or to consummate or implement our strategic partnerships may be materially and adversely affected.

We could suffer losses due to asset impairment charges.

We test our goodwill for impairment during the second quarter of every year, and on an interim date should events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable. If the fair value of a reporting unit is revised downward due to declines in business performance or other factors, an impairment could result and a non-cash charge could be required.

We have acquired or internally developed software and other long-lived intangible assets that are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the asset, or group of assets, may not be recoverable. If the carrying amount is not recoverable and it exceeds its fair value, a non-cash impairment charge would be recognized.

We also test certain equipment and deferred cost balances associated with contracts when the contract is materially underperforming or is expected to materially underperform in the future, as compared to the original bid model or budget. If the projected cash flows of a particular contract are not adequate to recover the unamortized cost balance of the asset group, the balance is adjusted in the tested period based on the contract’s fair value. Either of these impairments could materially affect our reported net earnings.

We are defendants in pending litigation that may have a material and adverse impact on our profitability.

As noted in “Business—Legal Proceedings” and Note 18 to the Combined Financial Statements, we are currently party to a number of disputes which involve or may involve litigation. We are not able to predict the ultimate outcome of these disputes or the actual impact of these matters on our profitability. If we agree to settle these matters or judgments are secured against us, we may incur liabilities which may have a material and adverse impact on our liquidity and earnings.

We may be exposed to negative publicity and other potential risks if we are unable to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting.

We will be required under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 to prepare a report of management on our internal controls that contains an assessment by management of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. In addition, the public accounting firm that will be auditing our financial statements will report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. If we are unable to conclude that we have effective internal control over financial reporting, or if our independent registered public accounting firm is unable to provide us with an unqualified report as to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of each fiscal year end, we may be exposed to negative publicity. The resulting negative publicity may materially and adversely affect our business and stock price.

Pension costs are dependent on several economic assumptions which if changed may cause our future earnings and cash flow to fluctuate significantly as well as affect the affordability of our products and services.

As a result of the Internal Reorganization, we expect to assume most obligations under substantially all of CSC’s material U.S. domestic defined benefit pension plans, excluding various supplemental executive retirement plans, including substantial assets and liabilities in respect of pension obligations to current and former CSC employees who are not our current or former employees. We will also have obligations to provide certain health care and life insurance benefits to eligible retirees. The impact of these plans on our U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) earnings may be volatile in that the amount of expense we record for our pension and other postretirement benefit plans may materially change from year to year because those calculations are sensitive to changes in several key economic assumptions that will impact our annual remeasurement “mark-to-market,” or under immediate recognition, accounting results, including interest rates, realized investment returns, and other actuarial assumptions including participant longevity (also known as mortality) estimates. Changes in these factors may also affect our required plan funding, cash flow and stockholders’ equity. In addition, the funding of our plans and recovery of costs on our contracts, as described below, may be subject to changes caused by legislative or regulatory actions. CSC has taken certain actions over the last few years to mitigate the volatility the defined benefit pension plans may have on our earnings and cash flows, including amendments made in 2009 to certain of our defined benefit pension plans to freeze pension accrual benefits, making discretionary contributions from proceeds from the sale of businesses, diversifying our investment asset allocation strategies, and liquidating liabilities via lump sum settlements. In addition, CSC implemented heath care insurance exchanges during fiscal 2015 to improve local medical care and to reduce our costs in providing retiree medical benefits and other post-employment benefits and, where possible, eliminated future financial impact on us from inflation in retiree medical care costs. However, the impact of these actions may be less than anticipated or may be offset by other pension and other post-employment benefits (“OPEB”) cost increases due to factors such as changes in actuarial assumptions, reduced investment returns, or changes in discount rates.

Changes in our tax rates could affect our future results.

Our future effective tax rates could be affected by changes in the valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities, or by changes in tax laws or their interpretation. We are subject to the continuous examination of our income tax returns by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and other tax authorities. We regularly assess the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from these examinations to determine the adequacy of our provision for taxes. There can be no assurance that the outcomes from these examinations will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and operating results.

We may be adversely affected by disruptions in the credit markets, including disruptions that reduce our suppliers’ access to credit.

The credit markets have historically been volatile and therefore it is not possible for us to predict the ability of our suppliers or partners to access short-term financing and other forms of capital. If a disruption in the credit markets were to occur, it could also pose a risk to our business if certain government suppliers are unable to obtain financing to meet payment or delivery obligations to us.

We will have substantial indebtedness after the Spin-Off and Special Dividend and we will have the ability to incur significant additional indebtedness, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Following the Spin-Off and Special Dividend, we will have substantial indebtedness and we may increase our indebtedness in the future. As of April 3, 2015, after giving effect to the incurrence of indebtedness in connection with the Spin-Off and Special Dividend, our pro forma total outstanding indebtedness would have been approximately $1.65 billion.

Our level of indebtedness could have important consequences. For example, it could:


•	increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions;


•	limit our ability to obtain additional financing to fund future working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate requirements or to carry out other aspects of our business;


•	increase our cost of borrowing;


•	require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to payments on indebtedness, thereby reducing the availability of such cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate requirements or to carry out other aspects of our business;


•	limit our ability to make material acquisitions or take advantage of business opportunities that may arise;


•	expose us to fluctuations in interest rates, to the extent our borrowings bear variable rates of interest;


•	limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and industry; and


•	place us at a potential disadvantage compared to our competitors that have less debt.

Our ability to make scheduled payments on and to refinance our indebtedness will depend on and be subject to our future financial and operating performance, which in turn is affected by general economic, financial, competitive, business and other factors beyond our control, including the availability of financing in the banking and capital markets. Our business may fail to generate sufficient cash flow from operations or to borrow funds in an amount sufficient to enable us to make payments on our debt, to refinance our debt or to fund our other liquidity needs. If we were unable to make payments on or refinance our debt or obtain new financing under these circumstances, we would have to consider other options, such as asset sales, equity issuances or negotiations with our lenders to restructure the applicable debt. The terms of debt agreements that we enter into in connection with the Spin-Off and market or business conditions may limit our ability to take some or all of these actions. In addition, if we incur additional debt, the related risks described above could be exacerbated.

We may need to raise additional capital, and we cannot be sure that additional financing will be available.

Subsequent to the Spin-Off, we will need to fund our ongoing working capital, capital expenditure and financing requirements through cash flows from operations and new sources of capital, including additional financing. Our ability to obtain future financing will depend, among other things, on our financial condition and results of operations as well as on the condition of the capital markets or other credit markets at the time we seek financing. Increased volatility and disruptions in the financial markets could make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain financing. In addition, the adoption of new statutes and regulations, the implementation of recently enacted laws or new interpretations or the enforcement of older laws and regulations applicable to the financial markets or the financial services industry could result in a reduction in the amount of available credit or an increase in the cost of credit. Historically, we have relied on CSC and its credit facilities and its access to capital for our financing needs but, after the Spin-Off, we will not have access to CSC’s credit for our future financings. There can be no assurance that, as a new independent public company, we will have sufficient access to the capital markets on terms that we will we find acceptable.

In the course of providing services to customers, we may inadvertently infringe on the intellectual property rights of others and be exposed to claims for damages and equitable relief.

The solutions we provide to our customers may inadvertently infringe on the intellectual property rights of third parties resulting in claims for damages and equitable relief against us or our customers. Customer agreements can require a solution provider to indemnify the customer for infringement. Under the FAR, the government can require a contractor to indemnify it for infringement. The expense and time of defending against these claims may have a material and adverse impact on our profitability. Additionally, the publicity we may receive as a result of infringing intellectual property rights may damage our reputation and adversely impact our ability to develop new business.

Our business may suffer if we cannot continue to enforce the intellectual property rights on which our business depends.

Our business carefully maintains a combination of patents, trade secrets, trademarks, trade names, copyrights and proprietary rights, as well as contractual arrangements, including licenses, to protect our intellectual property. Our other intellectual property rights are important to our continued success and our competitive position. See “Business—Intellectual Property” for a description of our intellectual property assets. Any impairment of our intellectual property, including due to changes in U.S. and worldwide intellectual property laws or the absence of effective legal protections or enforcement measures, could adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We have been, and may be in the future, subject to claims of intellectual property infringement, which could require us to change our business practices.

Successful claims that we infringe the intellectual property of others could require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements on unfavorable terms, incur substantial monetary liability or be enjoined preliminarily or permanently from further use of the intellectual property in question. This could require us to change our business practices and limit our ability to compete effectively. Even if we believe that claims of intellectual property infringement are without merit, defending against the claims can be time-consuming and costly and divert management’s attention and resources away from our business.

Risks Relating to the Spin-Off

The Spin-Off could result in significant tax liability to CSC and its stockholders.

Completion of the Spin-Off is conditioned on CSC’s receipt of a written opinion of Allen & Overy LLP to the effect that the Distribution should qualify for non-recognition of gain and loss, or “tax-free” treatment under Section 355 of the Code. CSC can waive receipt of the tax opinion as a condition to the completion of the Spin-Off.

The opinion of counsel does not address any U.S. state, local or foreign tax consequences of the Spin-Off. The opinion assumes that the Spin-Off will be completed according to the terms of the Master Separation and Distribution Agreement and relies on facts as stated in the Master Separation and Distribution Agreement, the Tax Matters Agreement, the other ancillary agreements, this Information Statement and a number of other documents. In addition, the opinion is based on certain representations as to factual matters from, and certain covenants by, CSC and us. The opinion cannot be relied on if any of the assumptions, representations or covenants are incorrect, incomplete or inaccurate or are violated in any material respect.

The opinion of counsel is not binding on the IRS or the courts, and there can be no assurance that the IRS or a court will not take a contrary position. CSC has not requested, and does not intend to request, a ruling from the IRS regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Spin-Off.

If the Distribution were determined not to qualify for tax-free treatment, U.S. Holders could be subject to tax. In this case, each U.S. Holder who receives our common stock in the Distribution would generally be treated as receiving a distribution in an amount equal to the fair market value of our common stock received, which would generally result in: (i) a taxable dividend to the U.S. Holder to the extent of that U.S. Holder’s pro rata share of CSC’s current and accumulated earnings and profits; (ii) a reduction in the U.S. Holder’s basis (but not below zero) in CSC common stock to the extent the amount received exceeds the stockholder’s share of CSC’s earnings and profits; and (iii) a taxable gain from the exchange of CSC common stock to the extent the amount received exceeds the sum of the U.S. Holder’s share of CSC’s earnings and profits and the U.S. Holder’s basis in its CSC common stock.

If the Distribution were determined not to qualify for tax-free treatment, then CSC would recognize gain in an amount up to the fair market value of our common stock held by it immediately before the Distribution. Under certain circumstances, we could have an indemnification obligation to CSC with respect to tax on any such gain. See below and “The Spin-Off—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Spin-Off.”

We could have an indemnification obligation to CSC if the Distribution were determined not to qualify for tax-free treatment, which could materially adversely affect our financial condition.

If, due to any of our representations being untrue or our covenants being breached, it were determined that the Distribution did not qualify for tax-free treatment under Section 355 of the Code, we could be required to indemnify CSC for the resulting taxes and related expenses. Any such indemnification obligation could materially adversely affect our financial condition.

In addition, Section 355(e) of the Code generally creates a presumption that the Distribution would be taxable to CSC, but not to stockholders, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, if we or our stockholders were to engage in transactions that result in a 50% or greater change by vote or value in the ownership of our stock during the period beginning two years before the date of the Distribution through two years after the date of the Distribution, unless it were established that such transactions and the Distribution were not part of a plan or series of related transactions giving effect to such a change in ownership. If the Distribution were taxable to CSC due to such a 50% or greater change in ownership of our stock, CSC would recognize gain in an amount up to the fair market value of our common stock held by it immediately before the Distribution, and we generally would be required to indemnify CSC for the tax on such gain and related expenses. Any such indemnification obligation could materially adversely affect our financial condition. See “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Agreements with CSC—Tax Matters Agreement.”

We intend to agree to numerous restrictions to preserve the tax-free treatment of the Distribution, which may reduce our strategic and operating flexibility.

We intend to agree in the Tax Matters Agreement to covenants and indemnification obligations that address compliance with Section 355(e) of the Code. These covenants and indemnification obligations may limit our ability to pursue strategic transactions or engage in new businesses or other transactions that may maximize the value of

our business, and might discourage or delay a strategic transaction that our stockholders may consider favorable. See “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Agreements with CSC—Tax Matters Agreement.”

Our ability to expand our business beyond U.S. federal and certain state and local government customers may be constrained.

We intend to enter into agreements with CSC prior to the Distribution that will restrict our ability to use certain intellectual property to sell our services to customers other than our existing customer base (i.e., U.S. federal and certain state and local government customers) for a period after the Distribution. In addition, we expect to appoint CSC as our exclusive agent outside the U.S. with regard to certain non-U.S. customers, subject to some exceptions, for a period after the Distribution and to agree not to solicit certain shared state and local government customers for a period after the Distribution. While we have no current plans to expand our existing business in ways that would require us to engage in business beyond the scope of the rights to intellectual property we expect to have at the time of Distribution, we would be unable to engage in business activities outside the scope of that license after the Distribution until the expiration of those restrictions unless we develop or acquire new intellectual property. See “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions-Agreements with CSC” for more information.

We may be unable to achieve some or all of the benefits that we expect to achieve from the Spin-Off.

We believe that, as an independent publicly-traded company, we will be able to, among other things, better focus our financial and operational resources on our specific business, implement and maintain a capital structure designed to meet our specific needs, design and implement corporate strategies and policies that are targeted to our business, more effectively respond to industry dynamics and create effective incentives for our management and employees that are more closely tied to our business performance. However, by separating from CSC, we may be more susceptible to market fluctuations and other adverse events. In addition, we may be unable to achieve some or all of the benefits that we expect to achieve as an independent company in the time we expect, if at all. The completion of the Spin-Off will also require significant amounts of our management’s time and effort, which may divert management’s attention from operating and growing our business. If we fail to achieve some or all of the benefits that we expect to achieve as an independent company, or do not achieve them in the time we expect, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

We may be unable to make, on a timely or cost-effective basis, the changes necessary to operate as an independent publicly-traded company, and we may experience increased costs after the Spin-Off.

We have historically operated as part of CSC’s corporate organization, and CSC has provided us with various corporate functions. Following the Spin-Off, CSC will have no obligation to provide us with assistance other than the transition services described under “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Agreements with CSC.” These services do not include every service that we have received from CSC in the past, and CSC is only obligated to provide these services for limited periods following completion of the Spin-Off. Accordingly, following the Spin-Off, we will need to provide internally or obtain from unaffiliated third parties the services we currently receive from CSC. These services include IT, tax administration, treasury activities, technical accounting, benefits administration, procurement, legal and ethics and compliance program administration, the effective and appropriate performance of which are critical to our operations. We may be unable to replace these services in a timely manner or on terms and conditions as favorable as those we receive from CSC. Because our business has historically operated as part of the wider CSC organization, we may be unable to successfully establish the infrastructure or implement the changes necessary to operate independently, or may incur additional costs that could adversely affect our business. As part of CSC, we have benefited from CSC’s size and purchasing power in procuring certain goods and services such as insurance and health care benefits, and technology such as computer software licenses. If we fail to obtain the quality of services necessary to operate effectively or incur greater costs in obtaining goods and services, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.

We have no recent operating history as an independent publicly-traded company, and our historical financial information is not necessarily representative of the results we would have achieved as an independent publicly-traded company and may not be a reliable indicator of our future results.

We derived the historical financial information included in this Information Statement from CSC’s consolidated financial statements, and this information does not necessarily reflect the results of operations and financial position we would have achieved as an independent publicly-traded company during the periods presented, or those that we will achieve in the future. This is primarily because of the following factors:

•

Prior to the Spin-Off, we operated as part of CSC’s broader corporate organization and CSC performed various corporate functions for us, including IT, tax administration, treasury activities, technical accounting, benefits administration, procurement, legal and ethics and compliance program administration. Our historical financial information reflects allocations of corporate expenses from CSC for these and similar functions. These allocations may not reflect the costs we will incur for similar services in the future as an independent publicly-traded company.


•	We will enter into transactions with CSC that did not exist prior to the Spin-Off, such as CSC’s provision of transition services, which will cause us to incur new costs.

•

Our historical financial information does not reflect changes that we expect to experience in the future as a result of our separation from CSC, including changes in our cost structure, personnel needs, tax profile, financing and business operations. As part of CSC, we enjoyed certain benefits from CSC’s operating diversity, size, purchasing power, borrowing leverage and available capital for investments, and we will lose these benefits after the Spin-Off. As an independent entity, we may be unable to purchase goods, services and technologies, such as insurance and health care benefits and computer software licenses, or access capital markets on terms as favorable to us as those we obtained as part of CSC prior to the Spin-Off.

Following the Spin-Off, we will also be responsible for the additional costs associated with being an independent publicly-traded company, including costs related to corporate governance, investor and public relations and public reporting. Therefore, our financial statements may not be indicative of our future performance as an independent publicly-traded company. While we have been profitable as part of CSC, we cannot assure you that our profits will continue at a similar level when we are an independent publicly-traded company. For additional information about our past financial performance and the basis of presentation of our financial statements, see “Selected Historical Combined Financial Data,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and our historical financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this Information Statement.

Some of the contracts to be transferred or assigned to us contain provisions requiring the consent of third parties in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Internal Reorganization and Distribution. If these consents are not obtained, we may be unable to enjoy the benefit of these contracts in the future.

Some of the contracts to be transferred or assigned to us in connection with the Internal Reorganization and Distribution contain provisions that require the consent of third parties to the Internal Reorganization, the Distribution or both. Failure to obtain such consents on commercially reasonable and satisfactory terms may impair our entitlement to the benefit of these contracts in the future.

We expect to enter into a Change of Name agreement with the U.S. federal government to effect the transfer of our federal contracts from CSC to one of our operating subsidiaries. We are in the process of completing the administrative tasks relating to completion of the change of name process for those contracts and contract vehicles. While we do not expect the completion of the process to delay payments to us in any material respect on contracts transferred to us by CSC, we may experience protest by competitors of new awards of contracts to us on grounds relating to the Spin-Off.

We may have been able to receive better terms from unaffiliated third parties than the terms we receive in our agreements with CSC that are based on the costs historically allocated to us by CSC.

We will enter into agreements with CSC related to our separation from CSC, including the Master Separation and Distribution Agreement, Master Transition Services Agreement, Tax Matters Agreement, Employee Matters Agreement and any other agreements, while we are still part of CSC that are based on the costs historically allocated to us by CSC. Accordingly, these agreements may not reflect terms that would have resulted from arms-length negotiations among unaffiliated third parties. However, they will be consistent with our compliance requirements for allowable and allocable costs and purchasing. The terms of these agreements will relate to, among other things, allocations of assets, liabilities, rights, indemnifications and other obligations between CSC and us. We may have received better terms from third parties because third parties may have competed with each other to win our business. See “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions.”

Risks Relating to Our Common Stock and the Securities Market

No market for our common stock currently exists and an active trading market may not develop or be sustained after the Spin-Off. Following the Spin-Off our stock price may fluctuate significantly.

There is currently no public market for our common stock. We intend to apply to list our common stock on . We anticipate that before the Distribution Date, trading of shares of our common stock will begin on a “when-issued” basis and this trading will continue up to and including the Distribution Date. However, an active trading market for our common stock may not develop as a result of the Spin-Off or may not be sustained in the future. The lack of an active market may make it more difficult for stockholders to sell our shares and could lead to our share price being depressed or volatile.

We cannot predict the prices at which our common stock may trade after the Spin-Off. The market price of our common stock may fluctuate widely, depending on many factors, some of which may be beyond our control, including:


•	actual or anticipated fluctuations in our operating results due to factors related to our business;


•	success or failure of our business strategies;


•	our quarterly or annual earnings, or those of other companies in our industry;


•	our ability to obtain financing as needed;


•	announcements by us or our competitors of significant acquisitions or dispositions;


•	changes in accounting standards, policies, guidance, interpretations or principles;


•	the failure of securities analysts to cover our common stock after the Spin-Off;


•	changes in earnings estimates by securities analysts or our ability to meet those estimates;


•	the operating and stock price performance of other comparable companies;


•	investor perception of our company and the IT services industry;


•	overall market fluctuations;


•	results from any material litigation or government investigation;


•	changes in laws and regulations (including tax laws and regulations) affecting our business;


•	changes in capital gains taxes and taxes on dividends affecting stockholders; and


•	general economic conditions and other external factors.

Furthermore, our business profile and market capitalization may not fit the investment objectives of some CSC stockholders and, as a result, these CSC stockholders may sell their shares of our common stock after the Distribution. See “Substantial sales of our common stock may occur in connection with the Spin-Off, which could cause our stock price to decline.” Low trading volume for our stock, which may occur if an active trading market does not develop, among other reasons, would amplify the effect of the above factors on our stock price volatility.

Stock markets in general have experienced volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of a particular company. These broad market fluctuations could adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.

Substantial sales of our common stock may occur in connection with the Spin-Off, which could cause our stock price to decline.

CSC stockholders receiving shares of our common stock in the Distribution generally may sell those shares immediately in the public market. Although we have no actual knowledge of any plan or intention of any significant stockholder to sell our common stock following the Spin-Off, it is likely that some CSC stockholders, possibly including some of its larger stockholders, will sell their shares of our common stock received in the Distribution if, for reasons such as our business profile or market capitalization as an independent company, we do not fit their investment objectives or, in the case of index funds, we are not a participant in the index in which they are investing. The sales of significant amounts of our common stock or the perception in the market that this will occur may decrease the market price of our common stock.

We cannot assure you that we will pay dividends on our common stock, and our indebtedness may limit our ability to pay dividends on our common stock.

Following the Spin-Off, the timing, declaration, amount and payment of future dividends to stockholders will fall within the discretion of our Board. Our Board’s decisions regarding the payment of future dividends will depend on many factors, including our financial condition, earnings, capital requirements of our business and covenants associated with debt obligations, as well as legal requirements, regulatory constraints, industry practice and other factors that our Board deems relevant. For more information, see “Dividend Policy.” There can be no assurance that we will pay a dividend in the future or continue to pay any dividend if we do commence paying dividends, and there can be no assurance that, in the future, the combined annual dividends paid on CSC common stock, if any, and our common stock, if any, after the Spin-Off will equal the annual dividends on CSC common stock prior to the Spin-Off.

Your percentage ownership in Computer Sciences GS may be diluted in the future.

Your percentage ownership in Computer Sciences GS may be diluted in the future because of equity awards that we expect to grant to our directors, officers and other employees. Prior to completion of the Spin-Off, we expect to approve an incentive plan that will provide for the grant of common stock-based equity awards to our directors, officers and other employees. In addition, we may issue equity as all or part of the consideration paid for acquisitions and strategic investments that we may make in the future or as necessary to finance our ongoing operations.

Provisions in our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws and of Nevada law may prevent or delay an acquisition of our company, which could decrease the trading price of our common stock.

Several provisions of our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, Amended and Restated Bylaws and Nevada law may discourage, delay or prevent a merger or acquisition that stockholders may consider favorable. These include provisions that:


•	permit us to issue blank check preferred stock as more fully described under “Description of Our Capital Stock—Antitakeover Effects of Various Provisions of Nevada Law and Our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws”;

•

preclude stockholders from calling special meetings except where such special meetings are requested by stockholders representing 75% of the capital stock entitled to vote. Our Amended and Restated Bylaws prevent stockholder action by written consent for the election of directors and require the written consent of 90% of the capital stock entitled to vote for any other stockholder actions by written consent; and


•	limit our ability to enter into business combination transactions with certain stockholders.

These and other provisions of our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, Amended and Restated Bylaws and Nevada law may discourage, delay or prevent certain types of transactions involving an actual or a threatened acquisition or change in control of Computer Sciences GS, including unsolicited takeover attempts, even though the transaction may offer our stockholders the opportunity to sell their shares of our common stock at a price above the prevailing market price.

THE SPIN-OFF

Background

On May 19, 2015, CSC announced plans for the complete legal and structural separation of the Computer Sciences GS Business and certain related assets and liabilities from CSC. To effect the separation, CSC is undertaking the Internal Reorganization described under “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Agreements with CSC—Master Separation and Distribution Agreement.” After giving effect to the Internal Reorganization, Computer Sciences GS, CSC’s wholly-owned subsidiary, will hold the shares of the legal entities operating the Computer Sciences GS Business.

Following the Internal Reorganization, CSC will distribute all of its equity interest in us, consisting of all of the outstanding shares of our common stock, to CSC’s stockholders on a pro rata basis. We refer to the payment by us of approximately $1.5 billion in cash (or approximately $10.50 per share) concurrently with the Distribution to holders of CSC common stock on the record date as the “Special Dividend.”

Following the Spin-Off, CSC will not own any equity interest in us, and we will operate independently from CSC. No approval of CSC’s stockholders is required in connection with the Spin-Off, and CSC’s stockholders will not have any appraisal rights in connection with the Spin-Off.

Completion of the Spin-Off is subject to the satisfaction, or the CSC Board’s waiver, of a number of conditions. In addition, CSC has the right not to complete the Spin-Off if, at any time, the CSC Board determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that the Spin-Off is not in the best interests of CSC or its stockholders or is otherwise not advisable. For a more detailed description, see “Conditions to the Spin-Off.”

Reasons for the Spin-Off

The CSC Board regularly conducts strategic reviews of its businesses. In reaching the decision to pursue the Spin-Off, the CSC Board considered a range of potential strategic alternatives for CSC. In evaluating these alternatives, the CSC Board considered a number of factors, including the strategic focus and flexibility for CSC and Computer Sciences GS after the Spin-Off, the ability of CSC and Computer Sciences GS to operate efficiently and effectively (including Computer Sciences GS’s ability to retain and attract management talent) after the Spin-Off, the financial profile of CSC and Computer Sciences GS, the potential reaction of customers, employees and investors and the probability of successful execution of the various strategic alternatives and the risks associated with those alternatives.

As a result of this evaluation, the CSC Board determined that proceeding with the Spin-Off would be in the best interests of CSC and its stockholders. The CSC Board considered the following potential benefits of this approach:

•


•	Focused Management. The Spin-Off will allow the management of each of CSC and Computer Sciences GS to devote its time and attention to the development and implementation of corporate strategies and policies that are based primarily on the specific business characteristics of their respective companies.

•

Management Incentives. The Spin-Off will enable Computer Sciences GS to create incentives for its management and employees that are more closely tied to its business performance and stockholder expectations. Computer Sciences GS equity-based compensation arrangements will more closely align the interests of Computer Sciences GS’s management and employees with the interests of its stockholders and should increase Computer Sciences GS’s ability to attract and retain personnel.

•

In determining whether to effect the Spin-Off, the CSC Board considered the costs and risks associated with the transaction, including the costs associated with preparing Computer Sciences GS to become an independent publicly-traded company, the risk of volatility in our stock price immediately following the Spin-Off due to sales by CSC’s stockholders whose investment objectives may not be met by our common stock, the time it may take for us to attract our optimal stockholder base, the possibility of disruptions in our business as a result of the Spin-Off, the risk that the combined trading prices of our common stock and CSC’s common stock after the Spin-Off may drop below the trading price of CSC’s common stock before the Spin-Off and the loss of synergies and scale from operating as one company. Notwithstanding these costs and risks, taking into account the factors discussed above, the CSC Board determined that the Spin-Off was the best alternative to achieve the above benefits and enhance stockholder value.

When and How You Will Receive Computer Sciences GS Shares

CSC will distribute to its stockholders, as a pro rata dividend, one share of our common stock for every one share of CSC common stock outstanding as of , 2015, the Record Date of the Distribution.

Prior to the Spin-Off, CSC will deliver all of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock to the distribution agent. Computershare Trust Company, N.A. will serve as distribution agent in connection with the Distribution and as transfer agent and registrar for our common stock.

If you own CSC common stock as of the close of business on , 2015, the shares of our common stock that you are entitled to receive in the Distribution will be issued to your account as follows:

•

Registered stockholders. If you own your shares of CSC common stock directly through CSC’s transfer agent, Computershare, you are a registered stockholder. In this case, the distribution agent will credit the shares of our common stock you receive in the Distribution by way of direct registration in book-entry form to a new account with our transfer agent. Registration in book-entry form refers to a method of recording share ownership where no physical stock certificates are issued to stockholders, as is the case in the Distribution. You will be able to access information regarding your book-entry account holding the Computer Sciences GS shares at .

Commencing on or shortly after the Distribution Date, the distribution agent will mail to you an account statement that indicates the number of shares of our common stock that have been registered in book-entry form in your name. We expect it will take the distribution agent up to two weeks after the Distribution Date to complete the distribution of the shares of our common stock and mail statements of holding to all registered stockholders. Trading of our common stock will not be affected by this delay in issuance by the distribution agent.

•

“Street name” or beneficial stockholders. Most CSC stockholders own their shares of CSC common stock beneficially through a bank, broker or other nominee. In these cases, the bank, broker or other nominee holds the shares in “street name” and records your ownership on its books. If you own your shares of CSC common stock through a bank, broker or other nominee, your bank, broker or other nominee will credit your account with the shares of our common stock that you receive in the Distribution on or shortly after the Distribution Date. We encourage you to contact your bank, broker or other nominee if you have any questions concerning the mechanics of having shares held in “street name.”

If you sell any of your shares of CSC common stock on or before the Distribution Date, the buyer of those shares may in some circumstances be entitled to receive the shares of our common stock to be distributed in respect of the CSC shares you sold. See “Trading Prior to the Distribution Date” for more information.

We are not asking CSC stockholders to take any action in connection with the Spin-Off. No stockholder approval of the Spin-Off is required. We are not asking you for a proxy and request that you not send us a proxy. We are also not asking you to make any payment or surrender or exchange any of your shares of CSC common stock for shares of our common stock. The number of outstanding shares of CSC common stock will not change as a result of the Spin-Off.

Number of Shares You Will Receive

On the Distribution Date, you will receive one share of our common stock for every one share of CSC common stock you owned as of the Record Date.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Spin-Off

Consequences to U.S. Holders of CSC Common Stock

The following is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences to holders of CSC common stock in connection with the Distribution. This summary is based on the Code, the Treasury Regulations promulgated under the Code and judicial and administrative interpretations of those laws, in each case as in effect and available as of the date of this Information Statement and all of which are subject to change at any time, possibly with retroactive effect. Any such change could affect the tax consequences described below.

This summary is limited to holders of CSC common stock that are U.S. Holders, as defined immediately below, that hold their CSC common stock as a capital asset. A “U.S. Holder” is a beneficial owner of CSC common stock that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:


•	an individual who is a citizen or a resident of the U.S.;


•	a corporation, or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, created or organized under the laws of the U.S. or any state thereof or the District of Columbia;


•	an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or


•	a trust if (i) a court within the U.S. is able to exercise primary jurisdiction over its administration and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all of its substantial decisions or (ii) in the case of a trust that was treated as a domestic trust under law in effect before 1997, a valid election is in place under applicable Treasury Regulations.

This summary does not discuss all tax considerations that may be relevant to stockholders in light of their particular circumstances, nor does it address the consequences to stockholders subject to special treatment under the U.S. federal income tax laws, such as:


•	dealers or traders in securities or currencies;


•	tax-exempt entities;


•	banks, financial institutions or insurance companies;


•	real estate investment trusts, regulated investment companies or grantor trusts;


•	persons who acquired CSC common stock pursuant to the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation;


•	stockholders who own, or are deemed to own, 10% or more, by voting power or value, of CSC equity;


•	stockholders owning CSC common stock as part of a position in a straddle or as part of a hedging, conversion or other risk reduction transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes;


•	certain former citizens or long-term residents of the U.S.;


•	stockholders who are subject to the alternative minimum tax; or


•	persons who own CSC common stock through partnerships or other pass-through entities.

This summary does not address any U.S. state or local or foreign tax consequences or any estate, gift or other non-income tax consequences.

If a partnership, or any other entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, holds CSC common stock, the tax treatment of a partner in that partnership will generally depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Such a partner or partnership should consult its own tax advisor as to its tax consequences.

YOU SHOULD CONSULT YOUR OWN TAX ADVISOR WITH RESPECT TO THE U.S. FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL AND FOREIGN TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE DISTRIBUTION.

General

Subject to the qualifications and limitations set forth herein, Allen & Overy LLP, counsel to CSC, is of the opinion that for U.S. federal income tax purposes:


•	no gain or loss should be recognized by, or be includible in the income of, a U.S. Holder as a result of the Distribution;

•

the aggregate tax basis of the CSC common stock and our common stock held by each U.S. Holder immediately after the Distribution (and immediately prior to the Special Dividend) should be the same as the aggregate tax basis of the CSC common stock held by the U.S. Holder immediately before the Distribution, allocated between the CSC common stock and our common stock in proportion to their relative fair market values on the date of the Distribution; and


•	the holding period of our common stock received by each U.S. Holder should include the holding period of their CSC common stock, provided that such CSC common stock is held as a capital asset on the date of the Distribution.

U.S. Holders that have acquired different blocks of CSC common stock at different times or at different prices should consult their tax advisors regarding the allocation of their aggregate adjusted tax basis among, and the holding period of, shares of our common stock distributed with respect to such blocks of CSC common stock.

The opinion of counsel does not address any U.S. state or local or foreign tax consequences of the Spin-Off. The opinion assumes that the Spin-Off will be completed according to the terms of the Master Separation and Distribution Agreement and relies on the facts as stated in the Master Separation and Distribution Agreement, the Tax Matters Agreement, the other ancillary agreements, this Information Statement and a number of other documents. In addition, the opinion is based on certain representations as to factual matters from, and certain

covenants by, CSC and us. The opinion cannot be relied on if any of the assumptions, representations or covenants are incorrect, incomplete or inaccurate or are violated in any material respect.

If the Distribution were determined not to qualify for tax-free treatment, the above consequences would not apply and U.S. Holders could be subject to tax. In this case, each U.S. Holder who receives our common stock in the Distribution would generally be treated as receiving a distribution in an amount equal to the fair market value of our common stock received, which would generally result in:


•	a taxable dividend to the U.S. Holder to the extent of that U.S. Holder’s pro rata share of CSC’s current and accumulated earnings and profits;


•	a reduction in the U.S. Holder’s basis (but not below zero) in CSC common stock to the extent the amount received exceeds the stockholder’s share of CSC’s earnings and profits; and


•	a taxable gain from the exchange of CSC common stock to the extent the amount received exceeds the sum of the U.S. Holder’s share of CSC’s earnings and profits and the U.S. Holder’s basis in its CSC common stock.

Unlike the Distribution, we expect the Special Dividend, because it consists solely of cash, to be taxable to the recipient. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors on the tax treatment of the Special Dividend.

Backup Withholding and Information Statement

Corporations will generally be exempt from backup withholding, but may be required to provide a certification to establish their entitlement to the exemption. Backup withholding is not an additional tax, and it may be refunded or credited against a U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability if the required information is timely supplied to the IRS.

Treasury Regulations require each CSC stockholder that, immediately before the Distribution, owned 5% or more (by vote or value) of the total outstanding stock of CSC to attach to such stockholder’s U.S. federal income tax return for the year in which the Distribution occurs a statement setting forth certain information related to the Distribution.

Consequences to CSC

The following is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences to CSC in connection with the Spin-Off that may be relevant to holders of CSC common stock.

Subject to the qualifications and limitations set forth herein, Allen & Overy LLP, counsel to CSC, is of the opinion that for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Distribution should qualify for tax-free treatment under Section 355 of the Code.

The opinion of counsel is subject to the same qualifications and limitations as are set forth above in relation to the opinion of counsel regarding consequences to U.S. Holders.

If the Distribution were determined not to qualify for tax-free treatment under Section 355 of the Code, then CSC would recognize gain in an amount up to the fair market value of our common stock held by it immediately before the Distribution.

Indemnification Obligation

If, due to any of our representations being untrue or our covenants being breached, it were determined that the Distribution did not qualify for tax-free treatment under Section 355 of the Code, we could be required to indemnify CSC for taxes resulting from the recognition of gain described above and related expenses. In addition, current tax law generally creates a presumption that the Distribution would be taxable to CSC, but not to holders, if we or our stockholders were to engage in transactions that result in a 50% or greater change by vote or value in the ownership of our stock during the four-year period beginning on the date that begins two years before the date of the Distribution, unless it were established that such transactions and the Distribution were not part of a plan or series of related transactions giving effect to such a change in ownership. If the Distribution were taxable to CSC due to such a 50% or greater change in ownership of our stock, CSC would recognize gain in an amount up to the fair market value of our common stock held by it immediately before the Distribution, and we generally would be required to indemnify CSC for the tax on such gain and related expenses.

Results of the Spin-Off

After the Spin-Off, we will be an independent publicly-traded company. Immediately following the Spin-Off, we expect to have approximately holders of shares of our common stock and approximately shares of our common stock outstanding, based on the number of CSC stockholders and shares of CSC common stock outstanding on , 2015. The actual number of shares of our common stock CSC will distribute in the Spin-Off will depend on the actual number of shares of CSC common stock outstanding on the Record Date, which will reflect any issuance of new shares or exercises of outstanding options pursuant to CSC’s equity plans, and any repurchase of CSC shares by CSC under its common stock repurchase program, on or prior to the Record Date. The Spin-Off will not affect the number of outstanding shares of CSC common stock or any rights of CSC stockholders, although we expect the trading price of shares of CSC common stock immediately following the Distribution to be lower than immediately prior to the Distribution because the trading price of CSC common stock will no longer reflect the value of the Computer Sciences GS Business. Furthermore, until the market has fully analyzed the value of CSC without the Computer Sciences GS Business, the trading price of shares of CSC common stock may fluctuate.

Before our separation from CSC, we intend to enter into a Master Separation and Distribution Agreement and several other agreements with CSC related to the Spin-Off. These agreements will govern the relationship between Computer Sciences GS and CSC up to and after completion of the Spin-Off and allocate between Computer Sciences GS and CSC various assets, liabilities, rights and obligations, including employee benefits, intellectual property and tax-related assets and liabilities. We describe these arrangements in greater detail under “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Agreements with CSC.”

Listing and Trading of our Common Stock

As of the date of this Information Statement, we are a wholly-owned subsidiary of CSC. Accordingly, no public market for our common stock currently exists, although a “when-issued” market in our common stock may develop prior to the Distribution. See “Trading Prior to the Distribution Date” below for an explanation of a “when-issued” market. We intend to list our shares of common stock on under the symbol “ .” Following the Spin-Off, CSC common stock will continue to trade on under the symbol “CSC.”

Neither we nor CSC can assure you as to the trading price of CSC common stock or our common stock after the Spin-Off, or as to whether the combined trading prices of our common stock and CSC common stock after the Spin-Off will be less than, equal to or greater than the trading prices of CSC common stock prior to the Spin-Off. The trading price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly following the Spin-Off. See “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Our Common Stock and the Securities Market” for more detail.

The shares of our common stock distributed to CSC stockholders will be freely transferable, except for shares received by individuals who are our affiliates. Individuals who may be considered our affiliates after the Spin-Off include individuals who control, are controlled by or are under common control with us, as those terms generally are

interpreted for federal securities law purposes. These individuals may include some or all of our directors and executive officers. Individuals who are our affiliates will be permitted to sell their shares of our common stock only pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, or the “Securities Act,” or an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, such as those afforded by Section 4(1) of the Securities Act or Rule 144 thereunder.

Trading Prior to the Distribution Date

We expect a “when-issued” market in our common stock to develop as early as two trading days prior to the Record Date for the Distribution and continue up to and including the Distribution Date. “When-issued” trading refers to a sale or purchase made conditionally on or before the Distribution Date because the securities of the spun-off entity have not yet been distributed. If you own shares of CSC common stock at the close of business on the Record Date, you will be entitled to receive shares of our common stock in the Distribution. You may trade this entitlement to receive shares of our common stock, without the shares of CSC common stock you own, on the “when-issued” market. We expect “when-issued” trades of our common stock to settle within four trading days after the Distribution Date. On the first trading day following the Distribution Date, we expect that “when-issued” trading of our common stock will end and “regular-way” trading will begin.

We also anticipate that, as early as two trading days prior to the Record Date and continuing up to and including the Distribution Date, there will be two markets in CSC common stock: a “regular-way” market and an “ex-distribution” market. Shares of CSC common stock that trade on the “regular-way market” will trade with an entitlement to receive shares of our common stock in the Distribution. Shares that trade on the ex-distribution market will trade without an entitlement to receive shares of our common stock in the Distribution. Therefore, if you sell shares of CSC common stock in the “regular-way” market up to and including the Distribution Date, you will be selling your right to receive shares of our common stock in the Distribution. However, if you own shares of CSC common stock at the close of business on the Record Date and sell those shares on the ex-distribution market up to and including the Distribution Date, you will still receive the shares of our common stock that you would otherwise be entitled to receive in the Distribution.

Following the Distribution Date, we expect shares of our common stock to be listed on under the trading symbol “ .” If “when-issued” trading occurs, the listing for our common stock is expected to be under a trading symbol different from our regular-way trading symbol. We will announce our “when-issued” trading symbol when and if it becomes available. If the Spin-Off does not occur, all “when-issued” trading will be null and void.

Conditions to the Spin-Off

We expect that the separation will be effective on the Distribution Date, provided that the following conditions shall have been satisfied or waived by CSC:


•	the CSC Board shall have authorized and approved the Internal Reorganization and Distribution and not withdrawn such authorization and approval, and shall have declared the dividend of Computer Sciences GS common stock to CSC stockholders;


•	the ancillary agreements contemplated by the Master Separation and Distribution Agreement shall have been executed by each party to those agreements;


•	the SEC shall have declared effective our Registration Statement on Form 10, of which this Information Statement is a part, under the Exchange Act, and no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement shall be in effect and no proceedings for that purpose shall be pending before or threatened by the SEC;


•	our common stock shall have been accepted for listing on or another national securities exchange approved by CSC, subject to official notice of issuance;


•	CSC shall have received the written opinion of Allen & Overy LLP, which shall remain in full force and effect, that, subject to the accuracy of and compliance with certain representations, warranties and covenants, the Distribution should qualify for tax-free treatment under Section 355 of the Code;


•	the Internal Reorganization (as described in “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Agreements with CSC—Master Separation and Distribution Agreement”) shall have been completed;


•	no order, injunction or decree issued by any governmental authority of competent jurisdiction or other legal restraint or prohibition preventing consummation of the Distribution shall be in effect, and no other event outside the control of CSC shall have occurred or failed to occur that prevents the consummation of the Distribution;


•	no other events or developments shall have occurred prior to the Distribution Date that, in the judgment of the CSC Board, would result in the Spin-Off having a material adverse effect on CSC or its stockholders;


•	prior to the Distribution Date, this Information Statement shall have been mailed to the holders of CSC common stock as of the Record Date;


•	CSC shall have duly elected the individuals to be listed as members of our post-Distribution Board in this Information Statement, and such individuals shall be the members of our Board immediately after the Distribution;


•	prior to the Distribution Date, CSC’s Board shall have obtained opinions from a nationally recognized valuation firm, in form and substance satisfactory to CSC, with respect to the capital adequacy and solvency of each of CSC and Computer Sciences GS after giving pro forma effect to the Distribution and the Special Dividend;


•	immediately prior to the Distribution Date, our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws, each in substantially the form filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement on Form 10 of which this Information Statement is a part, shall be in effect; and


•	prior to the Distribution Date, CSC shall have transferred its U.S. federal government contracts and subcontracts to one or more wholly-owned subsidiaries of Computer Sciences GS and for its U.S. federal government prime contracts, it shall have finalized a Change of Name agreement with the DCMA.

The fulfillment of the above conditions will not create any obligation on CSC’s part to effect the Spin-Off. We are not aware of any material federal, foreign or state regulatory requirements with which we must comply, other than SEC rules and regulations, or any material approvals that we must obtain, other than the approval for listing of our common stock and the SEC’s declaration of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, in connection with the Distribution. CSC has the right not to complete the Spin-Off if, at any time, the CSC Board determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that the Spin-Off is not in the best interests of CSC or its stockholders or is otherwise not advisable.

Reasons for Furnishing this Information Statement

We are furnishing this Information Statement solely to provide information to CSC’s stockholders who will receive shares of our common stock in the Distribution. You should not construe this Information Statement as an inducement or encouragement to buy, hold or sell any of our securities or any securities of CSC. We believe that the information contained in this Information Statement is accurate as of the date set forth on the cover. Changes to the information contained in this Information Statement may occur after that date, and neither we nor CSC undertake any obligation to update the information except in the normal course of our and CSC’s public disclosure obligations and practices.

DIVIDEND POLICY

We currently anticipate paying quarterly cash dividends following the Spin-Off. The timing, declaration, amount and payment of any future dividends to our stockholders will fall within the discretion of our Board and will depend on many factors, including our financial condition, results of operations and capital requirements, legal requirements, regulatory constraints, industry practice and other business considerations that our Board deems relevant from time to time. In addition, the terms of the agreements governing our new debt or debt that we may incur in the future may restrict the payments of dividends. There can be no assurance that we will pay a dividend in the future or continue to pay any dividend if we do commence paying dividends. See also “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Our Common Stock and the Securities Market—We cannot assure you that we will pay dividends on our common stock, and our indebtedness may limit our ability to pay dividends on our common stock.”

CAPITALIZATION

The following table sets forth the cash and capitalization as of April 3, 2015, on a historical basis and on an as-adjusted basis to give effect to the Spin-Off and the transactions of the Computer Sciences GS Business related to the Spin-Off, as if they occurred on April 3, 2015. You should review the following table in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and the audited combined financial statements and accompanying notes included elsewhere in this Information Statement.

SELECTED HISTORICAL COMBINED FINANCIAL DATA

The following table presents our selected historical combined financial data. The selected historical combined financial data as of and for the twelve months ended April 3, 2015 and March 28, 2014 and for the twelve months ended March 29, 2013 are derived from audited information contained in our annual Combined Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Information Statement. The selected historical combined financial data as of March 29, 2013 and as of and for the twelve months ended March 30, 2012 and April 1, 2011 are derived from our unaudited annual combined financial statements that are not included in this Information Statement.

The selected historical combined financial data include certain expenses of CSC that were allocated to us for certain corporate functions including IT, research and development, finance, legal, insurance, compliance and human resources activities. These costs may not be representative of the future costs we will incur as an independent, publicly-traded company. In addition, our historical financial information does not reflect changes that we expect to experience in the future as a result of our separation and distribution from CSC, including changes in our cost structure, personnel needs, tax profile, capital structure, financing and business operations. Our Combined Financial Statements also do not reflect the assignment of certain assets and liabilities between us and CSC as reflected under “Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Statements” included elsewhere in this Information Statement. Consequently, the financial information included here may not necessarily reflect 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. Accordingly, these historical results should not be relied upon as an indicator of our future performance.

For a better understanding, this section should be read in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” the “Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Statements” and accompanying notes and Combined Financial Statements and accompanying notes included elsewhere in this Information Statement.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The following Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Statement of Operations and Combined Balance Sheet are derived from our historical combined financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, which are included elsewhere in this Information Statement.

The following Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Statement of Operations and Combined Balance Sheet give effect to the separation, including:


•	$1.5 billion of debt at an expected weighted-average interest rate of %;


•	the pro rata distribution of approximately million shares of the Computer Sciences GS common stock to CSC stockholders;


•	net pension obligations related to substantially all of CSC’s material U.S. domestic defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans that we expect to assume prior to the Spin-Off; these were not included in the Computer Sciences GS Business’s historical Combined Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Information Statement; and


•	the impact of the Master Separation and Distribution Agreement, Master Transition Services Agreement, Intellectual Property Matters Agreement, Tax Matters Agreement, Employee Matters Agreement and other commercial agreements between Computer Sciences GS and CSC.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Statement of Operations for the twelve months ended April 3, 2015 assumes the separation occurred on the first day of the period indicated. The Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Balance Sheet as of April 3, 2015 assumes the separation occurred on that date. The pro forma adjustments are based on currently available information and assumptions we believe are reasonable, factually supportable and directly attributable to our separation from CSC and, for the purposes of the Combined Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income, are expected to have a continuing impact on us.

The historical Combined Statements of Operations and Combined Statements of Comprehensive Income include allocations of general corporate expenses from CSC, including, but not limited to, corporate functions including senior management, legal, human resources, finance, IT and other shared services. We may incur certain incremental costs as a standalone public company as compared to the costs historically allocated to us by CSC.

Our historical combined financial statements included elsewhere in this Information Statement include intercompany charges for corporate shared services. After the separation and the distribution, certain transition services will continue to be provided by CSC, as described more fully under “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Agreements with CSC” included elsewhere in this Information Statement. The annual charges under these agreements will be comparable to the intercompany amounts currently charged by CSC. Therefore, no pro forma adjustments have been made related to these agreements.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Statement of Operations does not reflect all of the costs of operating as a standalone company, including possible higher IT, tax, accounting, treasury, legal and other similar expenses associated with operating as a standalone public company. Only costs that management has determined to be factually supportable and recurring are included as pro forma adjustments.

After the separation, subject to the terms of the Master Separation and Distribution Agreement, all costs and expenses related to ongoing support of a standalone company, including certain one-time separation costs incurred after the Distribution Date, will be our responsibility.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


(A)	The adjustment to our historical interest expense to give effect to the $ million of indebtedness in connection with the separation is presented below.

The adjustments for borrowings are based on an interest rate of % as the initial variable interest rate on the term loan facility and % as the interest on the senior secure notes. For each % change in the applicable interest rates in excess of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) floor (which is approximately points higher than current LIBOR), pro forma interest expense would change by approximately $ million on an annual basis.


(B)	Reflects indebtedness totaling $ billion incurred by Computer Sciences GS on , in conjunction with the separation, consisting of $ billion in aggregate principal amount of borrowings under a senior secured term loan facility, net of debt issuance costs of $ and $ billion in senior secured notes.

(C)

Reflects the addition of net benefit plan liabilities that will be transferred to Computer Sciences GS by CSC as part of the separation. This adjustment includes a $ million adjustment to cost of services, a $ million adjustment to selling, general, and administrative expenses, a $ million adjustment to other accrued liabilities, a $ million adjustment to other long-term liabilities, and a $ million adjustment to related deferred tax assets. These net benefit plan liabilities are excluded from the Computer Sciences GS’s historical Combined Balance Sheet, which has been presented using the multi-employer approach under GAAP. The benefit plan service cost expense associated with these liabilities is included in the Computer Sciences GS’s historical Combined Statement of Operations, consistent with the multi-employer approach.

(D)

The number of shares of Computer Sciences GS common stock used to compute the unaudited pro forma basic earnings per common share is based on the weighted-average CSC basic shares outstanding for the year ended , adjusted for the distribution ratio of one share of Computer Sciences GS common stock for every one share of CSC common stock. The unaudited pro forma diluted earnings per common share and pro forma weighted-average diluted shares outstanding give effect to the potential dilution from common shares related to stock-based awards granted to our employees under CSC’s stock-based compensation programs. While the actual impact on a go forward basis will depend on a variety of factors, including employees who may change employment between Computer Sciences GS and CSC, we believe this provides a reasonable approximation of the future dilutive impact of new Computer Sciences GS equity plans.


(E)	Reflects the establishment of the cash and cash equivalents reference level of $ million as defined in the Master Separation and Distribution Agreement.

(F)

Reflects the tax effects of the pro forma adjustments at the applicable statutory income tax rates in the respective jurisdictions. The effective tax rate of Computer Sciences GS could be different (either higher or lower) depending on activities subsequent to the distribution. The impact of the pro forma adjustment on long-term deferred tax assets and liabilities was offset against existing long-term deferred tax assets and liabilities reflected in the Computer Sciences GS’s historical Combined Balance Sheet based on jurisdiction.


(G)	Reflects the pro forma recapitalization of our equity. As of the Distribution Date, Parent Net Investment in our business will be exchanged to reflect the distribution of our shares of common stock to CSC stockholders, at a distribution ratio of one share of Computer Sciences GS common stock for every one share of CSC common stock.

BUSINESS

Overview

We deliver IT, mission- and operations-related services across the U.S. federal government to DoD, Intelligence Community, homeland security, civil and healthcare agencies, as well as to certain state and local government agencies. We leverage deep domain-based customer intimacy and decades of experience in helping customers execute their mission with a fundamental understanding of their IT environment that has earned us the ability to introduce next-generation technologies. We bring scalable and cost-effective IT solutions to government agencies that are seeking to improve mission-critical effectiveness and efficiency through innovation. This approach is designed to yield lower implementation and operational costs as well as a higher standard of delivery excellence. Demand for our U.S. public sector offerings is driven by evolving government priorities such as: (1) migration to next-generation IT solutions, such as hybrid cloud infrastructure, application modernization, and as-a-service delivery, (2) big data solutions, (3) health IT and informatics, (4) cyber security and (5) mobility.

Headquartered in Falls Church, Virginia, and with approximately 14,000 employees, we deliver comprehensive offerings from concept through sustainment. We manage our business with a matrix model composed of industry verticals which are customer-facing and have deep knowledge of our customers’ missions, and horizontal delivery organizations with a depth of technical expertise that is delivered across industries. As a new public company, we will operate in two industry verticals: (1) Defense and Intelligence and (2) Civil. Our two horizontal delivery organizations that provide capabilities and solutions across our customer base are: (1) Mission Services and (2) Enterprise Services. We believe we differentiate ourselves by combining our technical expertise in applications and IT infrastructure solutions with our deep public sector mission knowledge and experience in order to engage our customers at the highest levels with thought leadership that drives change.

The success of our business will depend on our ability to deliver solutions that generate real and measurable business results in terms of mission value and cost efficiency. Targeting specific growth areas in the government and rapidly adapting next-generation solutions and best practices tailored to the public sector environment will be key. We expect to continue to work in concert with our next-generation IT partners to create, position and deliver innovative solutions from across our delivery capabilities to support our customers’ mission success which will be critical to our efforts to sustain our position.

We are one of the largest independent providers of IT services to the U.S. public sector, with approximately $4 billion in FY15 revenue. We are currently executing on more than 1,000 projects on over 100 contracts and leverage relationships with numerous global alliance and industry partners. We work to help modernize and streamline technology systems, equip the 21st century workforce, transform decision-making and enable agencies to become more responsive in the face of massive amounts of data.

We compete in a highly regulated environment controlled by FAR rules and federal contract audit oversight, which drive competitive cost structures. We have a broad base of contracts across government with an average life of three to five years. This broad base provides a degree of predictability to our revenues but requires substantial investment during long lead-time sales cycles, which average 18 months, and sufficient scale in regularly bidding hundreds of opportunities.

History and Development

Computer Sciences Government Services Inc. was incorporated in Nevada on June 16, 2015. Our parent company, CSC, was founded in 1959, and our business has been focused on the public sector for more than 55 years, with our first government contract awarded in 1961. Some of our significant long-standing engagements include:

• supporting the IT infrastructure of a major agency of the U.S. Intelligence Community;

• modernizing the Army’s logistics support system; and

• administering the New York State Medicaid payment system.

Business Environment and Competitive Landscape

Market Overview

Flat Top Line Federal Budgets. We compete in an environment driven by federal budget constraints. The impact of flat top line discretionary budgets drives agencies to reduce expenditures on IT services and related vendor support services in favor of salaries, employee benefits, and other internal expenditures. A Deltek survey indicated that most government agency chief information officers (“CIOs”) expect flat IT budgets over the next few years with the primary reductions expected in hardware spending due to virtualization and cloud initiatives. While Gartner predicts a transition from decline to low single-digit growth in government spending over the next few years, there can be no assurances that any such growth will occur.

We expect DoD mission expenditures to continue to face headwinds as defense agencies continue to reduce program expenditures related to overseas contingency operations and equipment support. Within the market, we expect continued vendor oversupply to drive extremely competitive bidding on sustainment-related opportunities.

We see potential for positive developments in GFY 2016. Budget request figures released by the Office of Management and Budget in June 2014 projected IT expenditures for Civil agencies and the DoD to increase by 2% in GFY 2016, from $47.7 billion to $48.6 billion and from $30.4 billion to $30.9 billion, respectively. Budget request figures released by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence in February 2015 projected overall expenditures for Intelligence Community agencies to increase by 15% in GFY 2016, from $62.7 billion to $71.8 billion. We are also experiencing an increased number of requests to extend the period of performance for our large and most complex IT contracts, are observing increased procurement activity across the U.S. federal government and expect to see adjudications increase.

The GFY 2016 budget request, coupled with congressional additions through budget resolutions, will likely continue the trend of the last two years to negotiate sequester relief—first for defense spending and then for non-defense domestic discretionary spending. We expect another threatened government shut down by Congress and the passage of a series of continuing resolutions to keep the U.S. federal government funded, with the possibility that Congress will ultimately pass a full year continuing resolution. In the event Congress passes a full year continuing resolution, we would expect this to support our initiative to extend the period of performance for our largest and most complex IT contracts.

Market Shift to Applications Modernization. Since 2011, the government has delayed application enhancements and new application program starts in favor of data consolidation and IT efficiency initiatives. Consequently, the current market for IT services has been driven by infrastructure and cloud support opportunities, with a government focus on cost savings and new hybrid cloud approaches. The infrastructure services market is expected to remain strong, driven by customer demand for data center consolidation activities and active engagement in new hybrid cloud-based initiatives. However, in a change from the past, the market for application support services is expected to begin to increase due to pent-up demand for application transformation and modernization. Based upon surveys conducted with government agency CIOs, Gartner believes there is a significant emerging demand for application modernization to meet future civilian and military requirements. Cloud, mobile and as-a-service solutions approved by the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (“FedRAMP”), a government assessment process for certifying cloud-based services and applications, are fostering new alternative approaches with which CIOs are beginning to engage.

Competitive Landscape

Increasing Competition. We compete against a broad range of companies including large defense contractors; diversified consulting, technology and outsourcing service providers; companies focused principally on the provision of services to the U.S. federal government; and small businesses that participate in the U.S. federal government market. We provide full-spectrum professional IT services to the U.S. federal government as well as

state and local agencies and therefore team with, and compete against, companies across this entire competitive landscape.

Large defense contractors are those companies capable of competing across our entire market space, possessing the reputation and ability to compete on large deals with any U.S. federal government agency and having the financial strength to manage and execute large-scale programs. Some of the large defense contractors we regularly compete with include Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon, Boeing, General Dynamics, SAIC and Leidos.

We compete against certain diversified consulting, technology and outsourcing service providers that participate in the public sector market. These are companies that, while lacking the breadth of public sector offerings and presence to compete broadly across the public sector market, are highly regarded and successful in the areas in which they do compete. Some of our competitors in this category include IBM, AT&T, Verizon, HP Enterprise Services, Dell, Accenture and CGI.

We also compete against companies that are focused principally on providing services to the U.S. federal government. These are companies that are highly specialized firms that have exceptional mission knowledge, customer intimacy or specific intellectual property that can make them major competitors in the markets that they serve. Some of our competitors in this category include CACI, Booz Allen, ManTech, SRA and ICF.

Emergence of Disruptive Players. There is a new set of disruptive players and service offerings that have recently emerged in the government market, led by Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, Google, ServiceNow and other cloud providers. Salesforce recently received its FedRAMP approval which generated an immediate increase in government interest. Microsoft has implemented unique clouds tailored for specific segments of our market, which will include not only Office365, but the complete Azure offering. Amazon Web Services added hundreds of new features and services to their offering last year, with many of these improving security and compliance, and they are on track to make even more improvements this year. We plan to partner with the leading disruptive players, incorporating their offerings into our hybrid cloud business model to meet customer mission demand and their very specific and unique requirements, culture and rate of adoption.

Small Business. Finally, the federal market supports many small businesses through requirements and incentive programs to create entrepreneurial opportunities for small business owners. In order to support our customers’ use of these small business set-asides, we are implementing a “preferred” small business partner program to more effectively team and compete in this segment of the market.

Strategic Vision: Leadership and Growth Strategy

To address the market trends within our competitive environment, we have developed a strategy that comprises three elements, Get Fit, Grow, and Lead:

1. Get Fit: Continue with disciplined management of our overhead costs and general and administrative (“G&A”) expenses, as well as shift to performance-based contracts to improve operating income on existing programs, allowing us to reinvest in our business and improve our ability to compete in a “Lowest Price Technically Acceptable” environment. Implicit within our Get Fit strategy is the priority of driving excellence in executing programs, demand generation, proposals and capture.

2. Grow: Despite the negative trends in overall IT spending by our customers and our own declining revenues over the past few years, we aim to capitalize on growth aligned with government priorities in hybrid cloud infrastructure, citizen benefit services, cloud-based analytics and health. We aim to continue to leverage our deep domain knowledge of our customers’ core missions and our intimacy with their data and critical work packages and grow our customer relationships through tailored offerings and mission-critical employees.

3. Lead: Pursue the hybrid cloud migration market, driving policy- and governance-based integration of solutions in as-a-service and next-generation offerings in cloud, big data, software-as-a-service implementation and

mobile computing. We expect the migration to the hybrid cloud will be enabled by an ecosystem of federally compliant partners. We also plan to invest internally on program management and delivery processes.

In the context of this strategy, we frame our priorities in terms of (1) the critical mission priorities of government agencies, (2) the government-wide mandate to improve efficiency and reduce cost and (3) the government’s long-term shift from buying expertise and platforms to purchasing hybrid cloud capabilities, mobile enablement, and as-a-service business outcomes.

The success of our business will depend on our ability to deliver solutions that generate real and measurable business results in terms of mission value and cost efficiency. Targeting specific growth areas in the government and rapidly adapting new next-generation solutions tailored to the public sector environment will be key. We expect to continue to work in concert with our next-generation IT partners to create, position and deliver innovative next-generation solutions from across our delivery capabilities to support our customers’ mission success which will be critical to our efforts to sustain and improve our market position.

We bring several key competitive strengths:


•	History of public sector delivery. We have 50+ years of public sector experience that combines an in-depth customer knowledge with our proven, next-generation IT and mission expertise.


•	Our People. Passionate employees with a commitment to our customers’ mission blend business process, design, and technical capabilities.


•	Offering Brands. Our brands are a proven holistic approach to solving customer business challenges, drawing on best practices and technical expertise.


•	Next Generation. We are driving innovation through next-generation technology and solutions in cloud, big data, mobility and application solutions and services.


•	Alliance Partners. We have enhanced our technical and domain expertise with strategic partnerships that deliver innovative end-to-end solutions.


•	Technology Independence. Our flexible and informed point of view optimizes customers’ technology choices.

Matrix Operating Model: Industries and Offering Solutions

Our strategy depends on executing an operating model that combines customer and mission intimacy with the ability to adapt and apply our offerings within the contractual frameworks required in the public sector. As a new public company, we will organize our public sector work into two customer-focused vertical industry organizations: (1) Defense and Intelligence ($2.1 billion) and (2) Civil ($1.9 billion). These verticals are supported by our two horizontal delivery organizations: (1) Enterprise Services (IT and next-generation solutions) and (2) Mission Services (science, DoD engineering and training). Through this matrix operating model, we bring scalable and cost-effective solutions to government customers seeking to improve mission-critical effectiveness and efficiency through innovation. This approach is designed to yield lower implementation and operational costs while achieving a higher standard of delivery excellence.

Long-Standing Relationships with Industry Customers

It is our deep industry expertise and customer intimacy that allows us to truly unlock the value of our technical solutions for our customers. We believe we have strong and long-standing relationships with a diverse group of customers at all levels of the U.S. federal government. In support of our diverse customers, we have focused industry teams which provide in-depth knowledge and deep domain expertise to better serve our customers in our two verticals: (1) Defense and Intelligence and (2) Civil.

Defense and Intelligence Agencies

The DoD is our largest customer, for which we provide the full spectrum of our services and offerings. Our industry teams work closely with all services and agencies to identify requirements for which we can bring our differentiated solutions.

Through our work on the Army’s Logistics Modernization Program, we have modernized the Army’s global supply chain and streamlined military logistics and support with one of the world’s largest fully integrated supply chain solutions for maintenance, repair and overhaul planning and execution. We also manage and operate the largest helicopter training facility in the world through the Flight School XXI program at the U.S. Army Aviation Center in Fort Rucker, Alabama, where we employ leading-edge flight simulators to provide helicopter flight simulation training to the Army’s rotary wing aviators.

We support Navy and Marine Corps forces worldwide through network and connectivity operations under the ONE-Net and Information Technology Support Services programs as well as provide software development and sustainment for the Marine Corps’ pay and personnel organization. We are also the leading supplier of ship design and engineering services for the Naval Sea Systems Command, providing acquisition and engineering support for numerous Navy ship acquisition programs.

We provide the full range of IT services to U.S. Strategic Command, including network support, data center operations, applications modernization and help desk services. At Scott Air Force Base in Illinois, our personnel develop software and manage systems for the U.S. Transportation Command and Air Mobility Command. We also support the network defense and cybersecurity of all Air Force networks.

We support the Intelligence Community’s Information Technology Enterprise strategy with seamless, secure solutions for its applications and data analytics. One of our key programs outsources the IT infrastructure of a major agency of the U.S. Intelligence Community to a joint venture led by our team. The most advanced use in the U.S. federal government of next-generation best practices for infrastructure, this contractor-owned and operated effort uses service-level agreements and transactional pricing. Since the program’s inception in 2003, we have been able to reduce both network and server outages while also reducing overall staffing needs, despite a significant increase in the number of network devices employed under the program. Users under this program are now being migrated to virtual desktop infrastructure.

Civil Agencies

In our Civil vertical, we provide services to numerous federal Civil agencies including the Departments of Homeland Security and State, as well as to various U.S. federal, state and local health departments.

We help transform government by delivering mission information systems and associated technical support services. We leverage systems integration disciplines to modernize strategic planning for the Federal Aviation Administration (“FAA”) National Airspace System and have developed enhanced simulation software to help train the next generation of air traffic controllers.

We provide IT infrastructure and systems integration services to agencies with missions ranging from patent and trademark management to counterterrorism. We support IRS efforts to enhance functional processes and legacy applications, improving accountability and service to the taxpayer. At U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services in the Department of Homeland Security (“DHS”), we provide technical and operations and maintenance support for nearly every legacy system required to process immigrant applications. We are teaming with ServiceNow to deliver IT service management using an as-a-service, consumption-based model for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (“NASA”). Through this as-a-service model, we provide administrative, financial, human resources and procurement services to NASA employees, applicants, contractors, and university partners. We also assist the U.S. Department of Energy in managing and operating several major facilities, such as the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility, which we manage through a partnership with Southeastern Universities Research

Association.

We deliver visa processing services for the State Department under the Global Support Strategy contract. This is performed around the globe at 75 posts in 48 countries, including through 24 off-site facilitation centers in Mexico, Argentina, Colombia and Brazil. We currently process an average of over five million applications per year, roughly half of the total U.S. visa application volume worldwide. Support is facilitated by our Yatri system, which provides visa appointment booking services, fee collections, document management and delivery services, call center and online support, all with a mobile application. It has been enhanced with our latest innovation for Canada with a tablet solution for the country’s embassy and consulates that automates applicant entry and documentation processes, improves tracking of applicant information, and reduces visa processing times.

We transform healthcare with better information for better decisions, leveraging healthcare IT in the public sector. We built and currently maintain the Medicaid Management Information Systems (“MMIS”) for the States of New York and North Carolina. New York has, by spend, the largest Medicaid system in the U.S., serving over five million residents and processing Medicaid payments of approximately $50 billion a year. The North Carolina system, NCTracks, is the first “multi-payer” MMIS in the U.S. We built and continue to maintain the New York health benefit exchange, the New York State of Health. Built in accordance with the Affordable Care Act, the New York State of Health exchange has operated smoothly since inception and we believe it is considered one of the most successful in the nation.

We build, maintain, and analyze huge claims databases for Medicare and are moving quality reporting for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to modern service-oriented architecture. We installed and run electronic health records and analytics for clinical care at the National Institutes of Health. Our Patient in Your Pocket tool puts electronic health records on mobile devices.

Solution Capabilities

To support our industry representatives in delivering to our government customers, we have two horizontal delivery organizations: (1) Mission Services and (2) Enterprise Services. Our Mission Services organization directly supports our customers’ operational missions, while our Enterprise Services organization delivers both enterprise services IT and next-generation technology. Through these offering organizations, we deliver over 150 offerings, grouped into eleven “brands” that align with customer needs and purchasing trends. The brands are designed to differentiate us from competitors and represent our go-to-market strategy. In leveraging the brands, our goal is to approach challenges and needs holistically from the customer’s perspective. We have supplemented this technical and domain expertise with the power of strategic partnerships, including with Salesforce.com, Amazon, Oracle, ServiceNow and Microsoft.

Mission Services

Through our Mission Services organization we deliver a broad range of mission-related and science and threat reduction solutions to our customers. We help to solve a broad spectrum of problems so our customer can focus on its mission of supporting civilians and deployed troops around the world, protecting the homeland and serving the public. Our Mission Services offering organization delivers these specialized solutions to our customers through two offering brands: Mission Services Solutions and Science and Threat Reduction Solutions.

Mission Services Solutions. We provide government agencies with mission-related solutions and services, including system engineering, logistics, administration, acquisition and both live and virtual training. We consistently deliver intelligent systems and services that help to improve mission performance and reduce operating costs by leveraging existing resources and improving delivery efficiency. Our 3,600 Mission Services personnel work side by side with our customers—often on-site and as a part of the team—to develop solutions that meet mission requirements and often afford us the opportunity to bring in our IT solutions in support of their missions. For instance, we provide high-fidelity, low-cost training simulations with the operation of a suite of virtual flight simulators for helicopter flight training under the Army’s Flight School XXI program at the U.S. Army Aviation Center in Fort Rucker, Alabama. We also provide program management, engineering and life-cycle support to the

Navy’s surface ship and aircraft carrier programs.

Science and Threat Reduction Solutions. Our nationally recognized scientific, emergency management and national security experts provide a broad spectrum of support capabilities, from medical product development to independent oversight of laboratory programs to emergency preparedness and disaster recovery. We combine established systems and best practices—proven across multiple programs—with the expertise of more than 400 scientific, engineering and emergency management staff. The results are efficient, effective solutions that help our customers achieve mission goals. In an era of limited federal dollars and competing priorities, we enable U.S. federal government agencies to:


•	automate manual laboratory data review procedures, achieve economy of scale efficiencies, and free government staff to focus on critical decision-making;


•	generate regulation-quality laboratory data that can withstand legal scrutiny;


•	integrate management of every aspect of medical product development programs and laboratory studies; and


•	ensure that government staff are prepared for intentional incidents and natural disasters.

Enterprise Services IT

Our Enterprise Services offering organization supports our customers with offerings in two major areas: Enterprise Services IT and Next Generation Technology.

Our offering brands within Enterprise Services IT address our ability to deliver a wide range of technology-enabled solutions and services to our customers that are effective and efficient, reducing waste and improving our customers’ ability to execute on their missions. The Enterprise Services IT brands include: Citizen Services Enablement; Classical Services; Converged Infrastructure; Applications Modernization and Optimization, as well as Applications Innovations Services.

Citizen Service Enablement. Our public sector customers rely on a range of business processes to deliver services to the public. Citizen service is a top priority for the U.S. federal government, and technology is a critical component. We apply our IT knowledge to business processes and functions, enabling our customers to deliver more efficient and effective customer services. We also help agencies provide citizens with a unified, consistent and user-friendly experience via their communication channel of choice. One way we do this is by moving from traditional face-to-face or telephone-based service delivery to providing 24/7 self-service options via web, mobile devices, speech recognition and interactive video. For example, we currently provide administrative, financial, human resources and procurement support services to NASA employees, applicants, contractors and university partners. We also handle more than six million contacts per year for the Federal Bureau of Investigation Criminal Instant Background check program.

Classical Services. Our Classical Services focus on our ability to provide on-demand labor and to support legacy offerings on which our customers continue to rely. We provide IT competency support to customers who own and maintain their IT environments and are looking for a specific IT skill set or need to augment IT staff. Classical Services offers on-demand labor and staff augmentation that is scalable to meet standard and surge IT staffing needs. Our subject matter experts cover the areas of architecture, engineering, development projects, service operations and management. As new technologies emerge, we provide fresh talent to meet IT environment requirements. The focal point of our delivery approach is effective resource demand management with the defined, proven processes and tools to find the right talent for our customers. Benefits of this approach include reduced IT cost and risk, as well as improved response, compliance and performance. For example, under the Transportation Security Administration (“TSA”) Information Technology Infrastructure Program, we have approximately 300 personnel providing infrastructure, security, web application and help desk support for TSA users.

Converged Infrastructures. We deliver efficient and on-demand managed services anywhere—whether on the customer’s premises, at a partner data center or within one of our own data centers. We handle everything inside a data center, from power, space and cooling to management of the systems and processes. We form the process, security and technology-bridge between the stove piped legacy infrastructure and near-cloud-ready environments. Our specific range of services includes data center best practices, co-location, network, storage, compute, cyber, desktops, unified communications, enterprise service management and mobile. Through our on-demand services we are able to find innovative ways to address problems our customers encounter. For example, we partnered with the State of Louisiana to create the Integrated Technology Center in Bossier City, Louisiana, a delivery center possessing the highest level of security accreditation under the Federal Information Security Management Act which is being coupled with our coordinated technical curricula at Louisiana universities. The result is a secure government-focused, managed services center that supports all classification levels, is managed by custom trained employees and all at low cost. We also act as the managed services provider for the DHS’s Data Center, where we help migrate and consolidate its data center operations and introduce new technologies to cut costs and improve security and performance. All of our data centers are designed to host systems accredited by FedRAMP. FedRAMP assures that our data centers meet the standardized approach to security assessment, authorization, and continuous monitoring as specified by the National Institute of Standards and Technology. The certification also allows us to expand our addressable market and be able to integrate our data centers with other offerings while meeting regulatory requirements.

Application Modernization and Optimization. We help the U.S. federal, state and local governments modernize or transform existing, aging applications (both custom and commercial-off-the-shelf) and to map the transition to mobile and cloud solutions. Application modernization and optimization encompasses a broad range of offerings focused around application portfolio migration, transformation and modernization, including basic operations and maintenance support, migration to cloud platforms, consolidation, version upgrades and mobile enablement. Coupled with over 50 years of domain expertise in the areas of immigration, border, air transportation and military and civilian health, the benefits of our application modernization and optimization solutions include reduced cost and risk, along with increased agility and responsiveness to mission needs. For example, we employ our application modernization and optimization solutions to consolidate systems and modernize critical applications at both the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.

Application Innovation Services. We build custom applications that help the U.S. federal government provide services to citizens, such as air safety for travelers and health coverage for the uninsured. We combine mature processes and relationships with key partners to deliver innovative applications built with leading edge and emerging technologies. Our application development services are powered by product offerings that enable faster time to mission, higher quality and cloud-independent applications. Some of these offerings include: FutureEdge, a suite of application modernization tools; AppWorks, a pre-configured agile application management platform; and Agility, a hybrid cloud management platform. With deep mission domain expertise, we serve as a trusted business advisor to help federal customers deliver services to the public more efficiently and effectively. Through our application innovation services, we built a single system for processing claims and payments for Medicaid and other programs for the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services. This program, NCTracks, is the largest, most complex IT project in North Carolina history and the first public multi-payer system in the U.S. Working closely with the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services on its existing 35-year-old system, we consolidated and streamlined several IT systems into one that is accessed through a single sign-on portal for a near real-time view of claims. In its first year, NCTracks processed 200 million claims and paid $10.3 billion to healthcare providers. The system delivers savings of $3 million per month to the state and pays nearly 100,000 providers faster and more often.

Next Generation Technology

Delivered out of our Enterprise Services offering organization, our Next Generation Technology offering brands address our ability to deliver cutting edge solutions to our customer’s most challenging problems leveraging innovations in cloud infrastructure, big data analytics, cyber security, and mobility. Our Next Generation Technology brands include: Custom Platform Services; Cloud Powered Commercial Solutions; Cloud Brokered Services and Big Data Science.

Custom Platform Services. We design, build, test, deploy and package secure mobile, web and traditional applications. Using an Agile (iterative and incremental) approach to system development, we deliver software releases more quickly without sacrificing quality, system integrity or system vulnerabilities. At the nexus between applications and infrastructure, our Custom Platform Services is a toolkit we offer to build and run mobile and cloud-native applications. We provide a full spectrum of services ranging from consulting and application development to deploying and operating mobile applications and specialized mobile infrastructure. To enable our customers to adapt to a more efficient “agile” culture, we bring lessons learned, experience, methodological leadership, and unique talent to help customers embrace incremental application development processes at scale and make the necessary changes to their governance, systems development life cycle, and security processes. We have led the migration from traditional “waterfall” approaches to development to agile practices at some of the larger applications programs in the U.S. federal government. Our integrated framework, AppWorks, allows for the collaboration of agile development teams to manage, design, develop, build, test and deploy their applications. By integrating AppWorks with our Agility Platform, application teams can achieve one-click deployment processes in which software is packaged, tested, and deployed onto a hybrid cloud along with all required supporting infrastructure and middleware. We offer access to next generation platform-as-a-service, enterprise class middleware, database technologies and performance monitoring tools that allow teams to predict and tune application performance prior to full deployment. At the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, Environmental Protection Agency and in the Intelligence Community, multiple teams use our development and operations (“DevOps”) tools to increase efficiency and improve quality. For Intelligence Community customers, we have developed industry-leading big data application deployment platforms that support the acceleration of provisioning secure and scalable application environments. We have won multiple awards for agile development excellence based on our migration to agile development processes and adoptions of build automation, test automation, and deployment automation.

Cloud-Powered Commercial Solutions. We work with agencies to determine the best approach to migrating IT workloads to third-party, FedRAMP-certified cloud services, while meeting the government’s mission and security requirements. In recent years, adoption of a cloud-delivered solution model—or software-as-a-service—has accelerated across U.S. civil and defense agencies, as well as at the state level. We build and integrate software-as-a-service solutions, such as email and collaboration, customer relationship management, IT service desk, human resource management and enterprise content management. We provide agencies with a complete approach to implement software-as-a-service solutions, providing change management, training, support, communications, project management, architecture, transition and migration to support the customer’s transformation to software-as-a-service solutions. We work hand-in-hand with cloud providers to bring innovative cloud offerings and solutions such as Microsoft (Microsoft Office 365, CRM Online, SharePoint Online) and Salesforce (Customer Relationship Management or Service Cloud). For instance, we implemented a cloud software-as-a-service email and collaboration solution for over 55,000 FAA users across multiple email systems. This was accomplished with an extremely low error rate. Overall, our software-as-a-service solutions help customers:


•	increase agility;


•	reduce IT costs;


•	modernize applications;


•	improve capabilities, e.g., by adding mobility;


•	enhance business process efficiencies; and


•	support dynamic provisioning and scalability.

Cloud Broker Services. We provide a channel for U.S. federal agencies to buy, manage, and use FedRAMP- and DoD-approved hybrid cloud services with a single point of control via our Agility Platform. This scalable, on-demand, pay-for-what-you-use model allows customers to buy just the right amount to meet their needs. Agility

enables a self-service, on-demand IT operating model with an easy-to-use, one-click cloud service deployment. As vendor-neutral, we are able to provide an independent assessment for customers, while our strategic partnerships with third-party cloud providers afford us the freedom to craft custom solutions based on the customer's specific requirements. We work with multiple third-party providers of cloud services from Amazon to Microsoft Azure, and offer our own cloud stacks. Cloud Broker, an offering in our Cloud Broker Services portfolio, is designed to enable our customers to define and enforce a set of extensible policies that can be used for workload placement, security compliance, access and workflow management and to achieve compliance with regulations in a systematic and effective manner. We have worked closely with several customers on their move to the cloud, including DHS, the Department of Health and Human Services and several intelligence agencies.

Big Data Science Solutions. We help customers derive value out of big data analytics. Specifically, we provide offerings using best-of-breed technologies including open source and traditional platforms to help government agencies derive mission value from big data. We design systems to enhance and maximize the user experience with data through intensive visualization. As an example, for the Army we created the Coral Reef application, an information system for visualizing complex data and links between data. We have also developed web-based tools to help decision makers in the defense and intelligence communities get information quickly, and specifically for their needs, from various data. For organizations that are considering whether and how to extract more value from big data, we help chart a path based on the customer’s specific mission.

Our People and Culture

People. Our success as a 50+ year strong IT, mission- and operations-related services provider is highly dependent on the excellent technical capabilities, high standards and ethics and the dedication of our people. As of June 2015, we employed approximately 14,000 employees, many of whom are deployed at customer sites throughout the U.S. Our headquarters are located in Falls Church, Virginia with major locations in Washington D.C., Virginia, Maryland, Kentucky, Alabama, North Carolina, New Jersey, New York and Louisiana. In Bossier City, Louisiana, we are in the process of deploying the Integrated Technology Center, our low-cost integrated delivery center, which we expect when fully functional will be supported by over 800 IT employees serving our customers across the business.

CLEAR Corporate Values. Our Corporate Values are CLEAR: Client-Focused, Leadership, Execution Excellence, Aspiration and Results. The CLEAR values give unifying focus and purpose to each of our 14,000 employees. No matter the industry, offering, region, or work site, our CLEAR values work to harmonize our culture and our approach to customer service. In today’s fast-paced, diverse workplace, our Values inform our instincts and represent common standards in an increasingly virtual enterprise. The uniformity of our Values aligns us as teammates from all layers and levels, and normalizes our interactions with customers, suppliers, alliance partners and respected competitors.

Ethics and Compliance. Our business’s commitment to ethics is unwavering, and our ethics and compliance program is designed to meet general governance and specific industry and regulatory requirements with a strategic focus on values, culture and performance with integrity. We know that strong risk management processes and effective internal controls—policies, procedures, training, audit and monitoring programs—are key components of well-run ethics and compliance organizations. Beyond these, however, we believe culture and values are intangible ingredients that make all the difference and so these are areas in which our executives and the program’s leadership are heavily invested.

Our code of business conduct makes clear our expectations for ethical leadership, performance with integrity, and compliance with company policies and the law. Our code makes clear the obligation we all have to report known or suspected misconduct; equally clear is our zero tolerance position on retaliatory behavior toward those who make such reports in good faith. We train employees annually on the principles of our Program and the contents of our code, which applies equally to all directors, officers, executives and employees of Computer Sciences GS worldwide.

Security. Security is critically important to our customers and their mission and it is fundamental to business and

a commitment to improving security is a core part of our corporate culture. We commit to performing our jobs with a measure of knowledge, experience and accountability. Equally as important as the skill and knowledge with which we perform our daily tasks is our commitment to honesty in our dealings with others and the integrity of the deliverables for which we are responsible. We show respect to one another, embrace our rich diversity and always lead by example. Our culture and business are strengthened and unified when we perform with integrity. This culture of ethics and performance with integrity is what we strive to promote and sustain every day.

Outstanding Talent Community. We have a longstanding culture, rich in mission and IT experience, which provides a foundation that is deep in customer domain knowledge and trust. Over 90% of our employees hold secret, top secret or top secret/sensitive compartmented information clearances and access. The majority of the workforce is technical in nature with over 70% having a bachelor’s degree or higher. Employees’ skills and talents range from entry level technologist to expert level professionals in software design and development, DevOps, network engineering, systems administration, programmer analyst, systems engineering, training, logistics, consulting, product development, customer support, scientist and next-generation IT including agile, cyber, cloud and mobility. We have thousands of employees doing every aspect of software and data engineering, half of which are engaged on Agile teams. We cover many development languages including .NET, C#, Java, Ruby, Groovy, Drupal and Python. Many use Open Source tools as their primary environment in both public and private clouds.

Our workforce is led by talented and experienced leaders that have cross-industry, technical and broad experience and the knowledge and experience to bring the best solutions to our customers’ most complex missions. Our executive leadership leverages extensive industry experience, across our defense, intelligence, health and civil markets, are recognized as leaders in their respective markets by our customers and partners, and have proven successful track records for performance and growth. Our strong succession planning and development means we have a deep bench of leaders coming up through the organization.

We invest heavily in our talent acquisition and staffing capabilities to ensure we are able to find and hire the most qualified candidates. We recruit excellent talent into the organization, with a key emphasis on our university relations and recruiting strategy, in order to build the emerging leaders and technologists of our future. Each year, we typically receive more than 100,000 applications, conduct more than 6,500 interviews and hire over 2,900 new personnel. In addition, we partner to hire those exiting the military through programs focused on wounded veterans and those with disabilities. We have over 3,500 self-identified veterans in our workforce today, one third of whom self-identified as having a disability. In 2015 we were recognized for being one of the best companies for veterans based on our population base as well as our practices, policies and culture.

Talent Development. We focus on continued development in four key areas: leadership, sales, program management and technical. We offer online and community-based educational opportunities, in addition to trainings offered by our partners in their respective areas. We promote an environment of continuous learning with strong educational assistance and certification benefits, along with individual development plans aligned with our growth strategy.

Intellectual Property

Our technical services and products are not generally dependent upon patent protection, although we do selectively seek patent protection. Our intellectual property portfolio covers products, technical services, consulting, methodologies and know-how and is protected by non-disclosure agreements, contractual arrangements and in the form of one or more of the following: trade secret, patent, copyright or trademark. Some of the intellectual property contains licensed third-party and open source components.

For our work under U.S. federal government funded contracts and subcontracts, the U.S. federal government obtains certain rights to data, software and related information developed under such contracts or subcontracts. These rights may allow the U.S. federal government to disclose such data, software and related information to third parties which may in some instances include competitors. In the case of our work as a subcontractor, our prime contractors may also have certain rights to data, information and products that we develop under the subcontract.

In connection with the Spin-Off, we expect to hold a limited portfolio of licensed intellectual property from CSC. The use of the intellectual property that we will hold will be limited to certain purposes and to certain U.S. governmental customers. As a result of the scope limitation in our rights to use our intellectual property, our ability to effectively bid for or perform contracts for customers other than the U.S. federal government and certain U.S. state and local governments will be extremely limited unless we acquire or independently develop intellectual property that would permit us to do so.

Regulatory Matters

As a U.S. federal government contractor, our business is heavily regulated and our need for compliance awareness and business and employee support is great. We provide offerings to numerous U.S. federal government agencies and entities, including agencies of the DoD and the DHS. When working with these and other U.S. federal government agencies and entities, we must comply with laws and regulations relating to the formation, administration and performance of contracts, security and control of classified and unclassified information and information systems, international trade compliance, human trafficking, mandatory disclosure of “credible evidence” of a violation of certain criminal laws, the civil False Claims Act, or significant government overpayments in connection with the award or performance of a contract or subcontract. U.S. federal government contractors generally are subject to:

•

FAR, and regulations supplemental to the FAR, which regulate the formation, administration and performance of U.S. federal government contracts. For example, FAR 52.203-13 requires contractors to establish a Code of Business Ethics and Conduct, implement a comprehensive internal control system and report to the government when the contractor has credible evidence that a principal, employee, agent or subcontractor, in connection with a government contract, has violated certain federal criminal laws, violated the civil False Claims Act or has received a significant overpayment;


•	the False Claims Act and False Statements Act, which impose civil and criminal liability for presenting false or fraudulent claims for payments or reimbursement, and making false statements to the U.S. federal government, respectively;


•	the Truth in Negotiations Act, which requires certification and disclosure of cost and pricing data in connection with the negotiation of a contract, modification, or task order;


•	the Procurement Integrity Act, which regulates access to competitor bid and proposal information and certain internal government procurement sensitive information, and our ability to provide compensation to certain former government procurement officials;


•	laws and regulations restricting the ability of a contractor to provide gifts or gratuities to employees of the U.S. federal government;


•	post-government employment laws and regulations, which restrict the ability of a contractor to recruit and hire current employees of the U.S. federal government and deploy former employees of the U.S. federal government;


•	laws, regulations, and executive orders restricting the use and dissemination of information classified for national security purposes or determined to be “controlled unclassified information” or “for official use only” and the export of certain products, services, and technical data, including requirements regarding any applicable licensing of our employees involved in such work;


•	laws, regulations, and executive orders regulating the handling, use, and dissemination of personally identifiable information in the course of performing a U.S. federal government contract;


•	laws, regulations, and executive orders governing organizational conflicts of interest that may restrict our ability to compete for certain U.S. federal government contracts because of the work that we currently

perform for the U.S. federal government or may require that we take measures such as setting up a firewall around certain employees or restricting their future work activities due to the current work that they perform under a U.S. federal government contract;


•	laws, regulations and executive orders that impose requirements on us to ensure compliance with requirements and protect the government from risk related to our supply chain;


•	laws, regulations and mandatory contract provisions providing protections to employees or subcontractors seeking to report alleged fraud, waste, and abuse related to a government contract;


•	the Contractor Business Systems rule, which authorizes DoD agencies to withhold a portion of our payments if we are determined to have a significant deficiency in our accounting, cost estimating, purchasing, earned value management, material management and accounting, and/or property management system; and


•	the Cost Accounting Standards and Cost Principles, which impose accounting requirements that govern our right to reimbursement under certain cost-based U.S. federal government contracts and require consistency of accounting practices over time.

We are also subject to oversight by the U.S. Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs for federal contract and affirmative action compliance in the following areas:

• Affirmative Action Plans;

• Applicant Tracking;

• Compliance Training;

• Customized Affirmative Action Databases and Forms;

• Glass Ceiling and Compensation Audits;

• Desk and On-Site Audits;

• Conciliation Agreements;

• Disability Accessibility for Applicants and Employees;

• Diversity Initiatives;

• EEO Compliance;

• E-Verify;

• Internal Affirmative Action Audits;

• Internet Recruiting and Hiring Processes;

• OFCCP Administrative Enforcement Actions;

• Record-Keeping Requirements; and

• Sarbanes-Oxley Compliance.

The U.S. federal government routinely revises its procurement practices and adopts new contract rules and regulations. In order to comply with these laws and regulations, we participate in industry-wide associations that represent the industry perspectives on proposed regulations to the government, monitor proposed regulatory changes, maintain compliance staffs and conduct awareness and training for affected employees, such as our contracts staff or DCAA compliance team.

The U.S. federal government has a broad range of actions that it can instigate in order to enforce its procurement law and policies. These include proposing a contractor, certain of its operations or individual employees for debarment or suspending or debarring a contractor, certain of its operations or individual employees from future government business. In addition to criminal, civil and administrative actions by the U.S. federal government, under the False Claims Act, an individual alleging fraud related to payments under a U.S. federal government contract or program may file a qui tam lawsuit on behalf of the government against us; if successful in obtaining a judgment or settlement, the individual filing the suit may receive up to 30% of the amount recovered by the government.

Seasonality

The U.S. federal government’s fiscal year ends on September 30 of each year. It is not uncommon for U.S. federal government agencies to award extra tasks or complete other contract actions in the weeks before the end of its fiscal year in order to avoid the loss of unexpended fiscal year funds. In addition, we also have generally experienced higher bid and proposal costs in the months leading up to the U.S. federal government’s fiscal year end as we pursue new contract opportunities being awarded shortly after the U.S. federal government fiscal year end as new opportunities are expected to have funding appropriated in the U.S. federal government’s subsequent fiscal year.

Properties

As of June 12, 2015, we conducted our operations in approximately 100 locations occupying approximately 3 million square feet. Our major locations are in the District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia, where we occupy approximately 1.5 million square feet, collectively. We have other significant facilities located in North Carolina, New Jersey and New York, where we occupy approximately 318,000, 214,000 and 211,000 square feet, respectively.

In addition, we operate from facilities in the states of Alabama, Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nebraska, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Texas and West Virginia and in the countries of Afghanistan, Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Dominican Republic, Ethiopia, Guyana, Haiti, Jamaica, Mexico and Trinidad and Tobago. We consider our facilities to be well maintained and adequate to meet our current and projected needs.

We currently share space at several locations with other businesses of CSC. Following the Spin-Off, we expect to own approximately 150,000 square feet in Daleville, Alabama and to lease approximately 2.8 million square feet at over 90 locations pursuant to leases assigned to us by CSC or subleased from CSC. At two of these locations, in Falls Church, Virginia and Sterling, Virginia, we expect to be co-located with CSC following the separation, in appropriately segregated space, pursuant to long-term sublease arrangements between CSC and us.

Legal Proceedings

Our performance under our contracts and our compliance with the terms of those contracts and applicable laws and regulations are subject to continuous audit, review and investigation by the U.S. federal government, state

governments and other regulatory authorities. Given the nature of our business, these audits, reviews and investigations may focus on, among other areas, labor time reporting, sensitive and/or classified information access and control, executive compensation and post-government employment restrictions. We are not always aware of our status in such matters, but we are currently aware of certain pending audits and investigations involving labor time charging. In addition, from time to time, we are also involved in legal proceedings and investigations arising in the ordinary course of business, including those relating to employment matters, relationships with customers and contractors, intellectual property disputes and other business matters. These legal proceedings seek various remedies, including monetary damages in varying amounts or are unspecified as to amount. Although the outcome of any such matter is inherently uncertain and may be materially adverse, based on current information our management does not expect any of the currently ongoing audits, reviews, investigations or litigation to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, cash flows or results of operations other than as discussed below.

Under the terms of the Master Separation and Distribution Agreement we will be responsible for and will indemnify CSC for any liabilities arising from claims, disputes and other matters relating to our business. Set forth below is a description of certain actions brought against or involving CSC that relate to our business and for which we will be responsible after the Spin-Off.

Maryland Medicaid Enterprise Restructuring Project

On March 1, 2012, CSC was competitively awarded the Maryland Medicaid Enterprise Restructuring Project (“MERP”) contract by the State of Maryland (the “State”) to modernize the Medicaid Management Information System, a database of Medicaid recipients and providers used to manage Medicaid reimbursement claims. This contract is one of the contracts we expect CSC to transfer to us following the Spin-Off. The MERP contract is predominately fixed-price. Since the date the MERP contract was awarded, U.S. federal government-mandated Medicaid IT standards have been in considerable flux. The State directed CSC to include additional functionality in the design to incorporate new federal mandates and guidance promulgated after the base scope of the contract was finalized. Further, the State declined to approve contract modifications to compensate CSC for the additional work.

As a result of the State’s refusal to amend the MERP contract and equitably adjust the compensation to be paid to CSC and, in accordance with prescribed State statutes and regulations, CSC timely filed a certified contract claim, Contract Claim #1, with the State in the total estimated amount of approximately $61 million on September 27, 2013. On February 14, 2014, CSC filed Contract Claim #1A, which amends Contract Claim #1, to a claim of approximately $34 million. Computer Sciences GS, which is expected to succeed CSC on these claims, believes it has valid and reasonable factual and legal bases for Contract Claims #1 and 1A and that the circumstances that have led or will lead to Computer Sciences GS’s additional costs set forth in Contract Claims #1 and 1A were unforeseen as of the operative proposal submission dates and are not the result of deficiencies in CSC’s or Computer Sciences GS’s performance. However, our position is subject to the ongoing evaluation of new facts and information that may come to our attention should an appeal of the State’s denial of Contract Claims #1 and 1A be litigated before the Maryland State Board of Contract Appeals (the “State Board”).

On February 19, 2014, the State provided a recommended decision denying Contract Claims #1 and 1A. The February 19, 2014 recommended decision was not a final agency determination on the claims. On April 29, 2014, the State provided a final decision, dated April 25, 2014, denying the claims. On May 28, 2014, CSC filed a Notice of Appeal with the State Board, which has exclusive initial jurisdiction of State contract claims concerning breach, performance, modification, or termination of contracts procured under Title II of Maryland’s General Procurement Law. The appeal, which will now be pursued by us, is currently pending before the State Board.

On August 22, 2014, the State unilaterally suspended performance under the Contract for 90 days. On September 12, 2014, the State modified its August 22 suspension of the Contract and authorized CSC, during the remainder of the 90-day suspension, to assign up to nine full-time-equivalent staff to perform various analyses of cost and schedule. On November 20, 2014, the State sent a letter extending the suspension until January 5, 2015, and on January 2, 2015, the State again extended the suspension until February 20, 2015.

As the result of the 90-day suspension, as extended, and other actions and inactions by the State in performance

of its obligations under and management of the Contract, CSC filed a second set of Claims with the State Board, Claims #2A–D. Claim #2A, in the amount of $77 million, asserts that CSC’s contractual undertaking did not include an agreement to receive reduced and delayed payments, and the State’s unilateral imposition of such reductions and delays, together with the other factors result in a material change to the Contract entitling CSC to compensation for all costs incurred to date, including all liabilities incurred and fees, as well as expected profit under the full contract. Alternatively, Claim #2B, in the amount of $65 million, asserts that the Maryland General Assembly’s reduction to the appropriations for the MERP Project for fiscal 2015 effectively cancels the MERP contract, entitling CSC to recover all costs incurred to date including all liabilities incurred, and a reasonable allowance for profit on costs and liabilities. Similarly, Claims #2C, also in the amount of $65 million, asserts that the State’s actions, inactions, and decisions amount to a constructive termination for convenience entitling CSC to recover all costs incurred to date, including all liabilities incurred, and reasonable allowance for profit on costs and liabilities. Claim #2D is a claim for suspension costs during the 90-day period of $3 million, including labor costs, facilities costs and other costs needed to remain ready to restart the program. Since April 2015, CSC and the State have been in negotiations, including the matters in litigation before the State Board, and the contract suspension has been extended to accommodate those discussions. We will continue to pursue Claims #2A-D as successor in interest to CSC. Management has evaluated the recoverability of assets related to this contract in light of these developments and concluded that no adjustments were required as of April 3, 2015.

Strauch et al. Fair Labor Standards Act Class Action

On July 1, 2014, plaintiffs filed Strauch and Colby v. Computer Sciences Corporation in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut, a putative nationwide class action alleging that CSC violated provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”) with respect to system administrators who worked for CSC at any time from June 1, 2011 to the present. Plaintiffs claim that CSC improperly classified its system administrators as exempt from the FLSA and that CSC therefore owes them overtime wages. Plaintiffs have also asserted similar claims under state law. CSC’s position is that its system administrators have the job duties, responsibilities, and salaries of exempt employees and are properly classified as exempt from overtime compensation requirements. CSC’s Motion to Transfer Venue was denied in February 2015.

On June 9, 2015, the Court entered an order granting the plaintiffs’ motion for conditional certification of the class of system administrators. The Strauch putative class includes more than 4,000 system administrators, of whom 1,865 are employed by us and the remainder of whom are employed by CSC. Courts typically undertake a two-stage review in determining whether a suit may proceed as a class action under the FLSA. In its order, the Court noted that, as a first step, the Court examines pleadings and affidavits, and if it finds that proposed class members are similarly situated, the class is conditionally certified. Potential class members are then notified and given an opportunity to opt in to the action. The second step of the class certification analysis occurs upon completion of discovery. At that point, the Court will examine all evidence then in the record to determine whether there is a sufficient basis to conclude that the proposed class members are similarly situated. If it is determined that they are, the case will proceed to trial; if it is determined they are not, the class is decertified and only the individual claims of the purported class representatives proceed.

CECOM Rapid Response Demand Letter

On July 12, 2013, the U.S. Army’s Communications-Electronics Command (“CECOM”) issued a demand letter based upon DCAA audit reports and Forms 1, for reimbursement in the amount of $235 million in costs that CSC allegedly overcharged under its Rapid Response (“R2”) contract (Contract No. DAAB07-03-D-B007) by placing CSC, interdivisional, teammate, and vendor employees in R2 labor categories for which they were not qualified. CSC’s position has been that, in most instances, the individuals in question met the contract requirements for their labor categories, and that, in all instances, DCAA and CECOM have ignored the value the government received for CSC’s work. CSC and CECOM have engaged in discussions in an attempt to resolve this issue but, at this point in time, there can be no assurance that the parties will be able to resolve their differences.

NetCracker Technology Corp.

In August 2013, CSC received a Civil Investigative Demand from the U.S. Department of Justice’s Civil Division seeking documents and information regarding CSC’s contract with the Defense Information Systems Agency (“DISA”) and its subcontract with NetCracker Technology Corp. (“NetCracker”). Since that time, CSC has cooperated with a government investigation into issues on this subcontract. On March 26, 2015, CSC received a letter from the Civil Division claiming that CSC violated the False Claims Act and breached its contract with DISA based upon actions taken by NetCracker in performing its work on the subcontract. The government asserted that its single damages from CSC “could be” $15.48 million. The False Claims Act permits the government to recover treble damages and penalties. CSC has taken the position that it has not engaged in any conduct that would violate the False Claims Act.

Contract Disputes Act Pension Curtailment Claim

CSC’s Board approved an amendment to freeze our principal U.S. pension plan effective May 20, 2009. At the freeze of benefits, which constituted a curtailment, CSC performed the calculation delineated in CAS 413-50(c)(12) which resulted in a deficit of approximately $169.4 million that CSC was entitled to recover from the U.S. federal government. The annual amount included in the indirect rates through Fiscal 2025 is approximately $9.3 million. As of March 30, 2015, and by informal agreement, CSC has recovered approximately $138.9 million through indirect costs charged to U.S. federal government contracts of CSC’s North American Public Sector. Although CSC has continued to recover the deficit through its indirect rates, it elected to file a claim under the Contract Disputes Act on March 30, 2015, to preserve its rights should the government elect to change the recovery process. The claim was filed with the DCMA for $30.4 million representing the U.S. federal government’s share of the unrecovered pension deficits and an additional $30.9 million to account for interest permitted under CAS when payments are amortized. The DCMA decision is due in August 2015. If the claim for the unrecovered amount is denied, as a successor to the CAS-covered contracts, we will file an appeal with either the Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals or the U.S. Court of Federal Claims. Since the claim was filed, CSC has continued to recover through its indirect rates.

Publicity surrounding any of the foregoing matters could have an adverse impact on our reputation, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. We are unable to estimate with confidence or certainty any possible loss or range of loss associated with these matters at this time.

In addition to the matters noted above, CSC is currently party to a number of disputes that involve or may involve litigation. CSC accrues a liability when management believes that it is probable that a liability has been incurred and that the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated under ASC 450. CSC believes it has appropriately recognized liabilities for any such matters. Regarding other matters that may involve actual or threatened disputes or litigation, CSC, in accordance with the applicable reporting requirements, provides disclosure of such matters for which the likelihood of material loss is at least reasonably possible.

CSC also considered the requirements regarding estimates used in the disclosure of contingencies under ASC Subtopic 275-10, Risks and Uncertainties. Based on that guidance, CSC determined that supplemental accrual and disclosure was not required for a change in estimate that involves contingencies because CSC determined that it was not reasonably possible that a change in estimate will occur in the near term. CSC reviews contingencies during each interim period and adjusts its accruals to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel and other information and events pertaining to a particular case.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations (“MD&A”) should be read in conjunction with our audited combined financial statements, accompanying notes included elsewhere in this Information Statement, as well as the discussion in the section of this Information Statement entitled “Business.” This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but rather are based on our current expectations, estimates, assumptions, and projections about our industry, business and future financial results. Our actual results could differ materially from the results contemplated by these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including those we discuss in the sections of this Information Statement entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements.”

Our combined financial statements, discussed below, reflect our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. The financial information discussed below and included in this Information Statement, however, may not necessarily reflect what our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows would have been had we been operated as a separate, independent entity during the periods presented, or what our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows may be in the future.

For purposes of this MD&A, we use the terms “Computer Sciences GS,” “we,” “us” and “our” to refer to the Computer Sciences Government Services Inc. and its combined subsidiaries after giving effect to the Spin-Off and “CSC” to refer to Computer Sciences Corporation, collectively with its consolidated subsidiaries.

Basis of Presentation

The Combined Financial Statements included in this Information Statement have been derived from the Consolidated Financial Statements and accounting records of CSC as if we operated on a standalone basis during the periods presented and were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP").

The Combined Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income of Computer Sciences GS reflect allocations of general corporate expenses from the CSC including, but not limited to, senior management, legal, human resources, finance, IT and other shared services. These have been allocated to Computer Sciences GS based on direct usage or benefit where identifiable, with the remainder allocated on a pro rata basis of revenue, headcount, square footage, number of transactions or other measures.

We consider these allocations to be a reasonable reflection of the utilization of services by, or the benefits provided to, us. The allocations may not be indicative of the actual expense that we would have incurred as an independent, standalone company for the periods presented.

The Combined Balance Sheets of Computer Sciences GS include CSC assets and liabilities that are specifically identifiable or otherwise attributable to us. CSC's cash has not been assigned to us for any of the periods presented because those cash balances are not directly attributable to us. We reflect transfers of cash to and from CSC's cash management system as a component of net Parent investment on the Combined Balance Sheets. CSC's long-term debt has not been attributed to us for any of the periods presented because CSC's borrowings are neither directly attributable to us, nor are we the legal obligor of such borrowings.

CSC maintains various benefit and stock-based compensation plans at a corporate level and other benefit plans at a subsidiary level. Our employees participate in those programs and a portion of the cost of those plans is included in our Combined Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Information Statement. However, the Combined Balance Sheets do not include any net benefit plan obligations unless the benefit plan covers only our active, retired and other former employees or any equity related to stock-based compensation plans.

Business Overview

We deliver IT, mission- and operations-related services across the U.S. federal government to DoD, Intelligence Community and homeland security, civil and healthcare agencies, as well as certain state and local government agencies. We leverage deep domain-based customer intimacy and decades of experience in helping customers execute their mission with a fundamental understanding of their IT environment that has earned us the ability to introduce next-generation technologies. We bring scalable and more cost-effective IT solutions to government agencies that are seeking to improve mission-critical effectiveness and efficiency through innovation. This approach is designed to yield lower implementation and operational costs as well as a higher standard of delivery excellence. Demand for our U.S. public sector offerings is driven by evolving government priorities such as: (1) migration to next-generation IT solutions, such as hybrid cloud infrastructure, application modernization, and as-a-service delivery; (2) big data solutions; (3) health IT and informatics; (4) cyber security; and (5) mobility.

Headquartered in Falls Church, Virginia, and with approximately 14,000 employees, we deliver comprehensive offerings from concept through sustainment. We manage our business with a matrix model composed of industry verticals that are customer-facing and have deep knowledge of our customers’ missions, and horizontal delivery organizations with depth of technical expertise that they deliver across industries. As a new public company, we will operate in two industry verticals: (1) Defense and Intelligence and (2) Civil. Our two horizontal delivery organizations that provide capabilities and solutions across our customer base are: (1) Mission Services and (2) Enterprise Services. We believe we differentiate ourselves by combining our technical expertise in applications and IT infrastructure solutions with our deep public sector mission knowledge and experience in order to engage our customers at the highest levels with thought leadership that drives change.

Our two reportable segments are our industry verticals:


•	Defense and Intelligence—The Defense and Intelligence segment provides services to the DoD, National Security Agency, branches of the Armed Forces, and other DoD agencies.


•	Civil—The Civil segment provides services to various federal agencies within the Department of Homeland Security and other federal civil agencies, as well as various state and local agencies.

Economic and Industry Factors

Our results of operations are impacted by economic conditions generally, including macroeconomic conditions. We are monitoring current macroeconomic and credit market conditions and levels of business confidence and their potential effect on our customers and on us. A severe and/or prolonged economic downturn could adversely affect our customers’ financial condition and the levels of business activities in the industries and geographies in which we operate. Such a downturn may reduce demand for our services or depress pricing of those services and have a material adverse effect on our new contract bookings and results of operations. Particularly in light of recent economic uncertainty, we continue to monitor our costs closely in order to respond to changing conditions and to manage any impact to our results of operations.

Our results of operations are also affected by the evolving priorities of the U.S. federal government, as well as by the pace of technological change and the type and level of technology spending by our customers. The ability to identify and capitalize on these markets and technological changes early in their cycles is a key driver of our performance.

We see potential for positive developments in the federal government budget for GFY 2017. Budget request figures released by the Office of Management and Budget project IT expenditures for Civil agencies and the DoD to increase by 2% in GFY 2016, from $47.7 billion to $48.6 billion and from $30.4 billion to $30.9 billion, respectively. Budget request figures released by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence project overall expenditures for intelligence agencies to increase by 15% in GFY 2016, from $62.7 billion to $71.8 billion. We are also experiencing an increased number of requests to extend the period of performance for our largest and most

complex IT contracts, are observing increased procurement activity across the U.S. federal government and expect to see adjudications increase.

Revenues are driven by our ability to secure new contracts and to deliver solutions and services that add value to our customers. Our ability to add value to customers, and therefore generate revenues, depends in part on our ability to deliver market-leading service offerings and to deploy skilled teams of professionals quickly across all government industries and domains.

Our market is highly competitive and has characteristics unique to the federal contracting environment. Almost all of our U.S. federal government contracts and subcontracts may be modified, curtailed, or terminated either at the convenience of the government or for default based on factors set forth in the FAR. Upon termination for convenience of a fixed-price type contract, our U.S. federal government contracts normally entitle us to receive the purchase price for delivered items, reimbursement for contractual commitments and allowable costs for work-in-process, and a reasonable allowance for profit, although there can also be financial impact resulting from the negotiated contract settlement. Upon termination for convenience of a U.S. federal government cost reimbursable or time and material contract, we normally are entitled to reimbursement of allowable costs plus a fee. Allowable costs generally include the cost to terminate agreements with suppliers and subcontractors. The amount of the fee recovered, if any, generally is related to the portion of the work completed prior to termination and is determined by negotiation (see “Risk Factors” section). If contracts are lost through the competitive bid process, our operating results may differ materially and adversely from those anticipated. Finally, shifting U.S. federal government priorities can also impact the future of projects. Management monitors U.S. federal government priorities and industry factors through numerous industry and government publications and forecasts, legislative activity, budgeting and appropriation processes, and by participating in industry professional associations in order to anticipate these shifting priorities.

Business Drivers

Revenue in both segments is generated by providing services on a variety of contract types which vary in duration from as little as six months to more than ten years. Factors affecting revenue include our ability to successfully:


•	bid on and win new contract awards;


•	satisfy existing customers and obtain add-on business and win contract recompetes;


•	compete on services offered, delivery models offered, technical ability and innovation, quality, flexibility, experience, and results created; and


•	identify and integrate acquisitions and leverage them to generate new revenues.

Earnings are impacted by the above revenue factors and, in addition, our ability to:


•	control costs, particularly labor costs, subcontractor expenses, and overhead costs including healthcare, pension and general and administrative costs;


•	anticipate talent needs to avoid staff shortages or excesses;


•	accurately estimate various factors incorporated in contract bids and proposals; and


•	migrate compatible service offerings to low cost areas.

Cash flows are affected by the above earnings factors and, in addition, by the following factors:


•	timely management of receivables and payables;


•	investment opportunities available, particularly related to business acquisitions;


•	tax obligations; and


•	the ability to efficiently manage capital deployed for software and property and equipment.

Key Performance Indicators

We manage and assess the performance of our business through various means, with the primary financial measures including new contract wins, revenue, operating income, and free cash flow.

New contract wins: In addition to being a primary driver of future revenue, new contract wins also provide management an assessment of our ability to compete. The total level of wins tends to fluctuate from year to year depending on the timing of new or recompeted contracts, as well as numerous external factors.

Revenue: Revenue is a product of contracts won in prior periods, known as backlog, and work secured in the current year. Year-over-year revenues tend to vary less than new contract wins, and reflect performance on both new and existing contracts.

Operating Income: Operating income reflects our performance on contracts and ability to control direct costs related to those contracts. Operating income, which is also a key element of our executive compensation metrics, reflects the impact of revenue growth and mix, investments in technology, cost takeout, and operational efficiencies. See the definition of this non-GAAP measure in (1) below within Fiscal 2015 Highlights.

Free cash flow: Primary drivers of our free cash flow are earnings provided by our operations and the use of capital to generate those earnings. Also contributing to short-term cash flow results are movements in current asset and liability balances. See the definition of this non-GAAP measure in (6) below within Fiscal 2015 Highlights.

Fiscal 2015 Highlights

The key operating results for fiscal 2015 include:


•	Revenues decreased $33 million, or 0.8%, to $4,070 million compared to fiscal 2014.


•	Operating income⁽¹⁾ increased to $546 million as compared to $500 million in fiscal 2014. The operating income margins increased to 13.4% from 12.2% in fiscal 2014.


•	Earnings before interest and taxes⁽²⁾ (“EBIT”) increased to $451 million as compared to $421 million in fiscal 2014. The EBIT margin increased to 11.1% from 10.3% in fiscal 2014.


•	Income from continuing operations before taxes was $429 million, compared to $401 million in fiscal 2014.


•	Loss from discontinued operations, net of taxes was $2 million, compared to income of $65 million in fiscal 2014.


•	Net income attributable to Parent was $252 million, compared to $296 million in fiscal 2014.


•	We made the following acquisitions during the year:


•	Acquired Tenacity Solutions for $36 million in an all-cash transaction, which enhances our portfolio of cyber security, systems engineering and software development service offerings in the federal intelligence sector.


•	Acquired Autonomic Resources for $14 million in an all-cash transaction, which expands our cloud offerings in the federal and other government markets and accelerates our growth as a provider of infrastructure-as-a-service, platform-as-a-service, and software-as-a-service cloud offerings to government agencies.

(1)

Operating income is a non-GAAP measure used by management to assess performance of our segments and on a consolidated basis. Our definition of such measure may differ from other companies. We define operating income as revenue less costs of services, depreciation and amortization expense, and segment general and administrative (“G&A”) expense, excluding actuarial and settlement charges related to pension and other post-employment benefit plans and corporate G&A. Operating margin is defined as operating income as a percentage of revenue. Management compensates for the limitations of this non-GAAP measure by also reviewing income from continuing operations before taxes, which includes costs excluded from the operating income definition such as corporate G&A, interest and other expenses. A reconciliation of consolidated operating income to income from continuing operations before taxes is as follows:



		Twelve Months Ended
(Dollars in millions)		April 3, 2015			March 28, 2014			March 29, 2013
Operating income (a) (b)	$	546		$	500		$	509
Pension and OPEB plans actuarial (losses) gains, and pension settlement losses		(8	)		2			2
Corporate G&A		(81	)		(79	)		(61	)
Interest expense, net		(22	)		(20	)		(18	)
Other expenses, net		(6	)		(2	)		(1	)
Income from continuing operations before taxes (a)	$	429		$	401		$	431

(a) The net periodic pension cost within income from continuing operations before taxes includes $3 million, $6 million, and $4 million, of actual return on plan assets for the twelve months ended April 3, 2015, March 28, 2014 and March 29, 2013, respectively, whereas the net periodic pension cost within non-GAAP operating income includes $4 million, $4 million, and $3 million of expected long-term return on pension assets of defined benefit plans for the twelve months ended April 3, 2015, March 28, 2014 and March 29, 2013, respectively.

(b) Operating income as presented does not include the contribution from net periodic pension (income) related to the CSC U.S. domestic defined benefit pension plans that we expect to assume prior to the Spin-Off; net periodic pension (income) relating to these plans have not been included in the Computer Sciences GS Business’s historical non-GAAP operating income nor in the historical Combined Financial Statements, but will be included in our results of operations beginning in the period after the date of Distribution. The contribution to non-GAAP operating income from net periodic pension (income) from CSC’s U.S. domestic defined benefit pension plans amounted to approximately ($82) million, ($60) million and ($7) million for fiscal 2015, fiscal 2014 and fiscal 2013, respectively.

(2)

EBIT is a non-GAAP measure that provides useful information to investors regarding our results of operations as it provides another measure of our profitability, and is considered an important measure by financial analysts covering this entity and its peers. Our definition of such measure may differ from other companies. We define EBIT as income from continuing operations less interest expense, net and income tax expense. EBIT margin is defined as EBIT as a percentage of revenue. A reconciliation of EBIT to net income from continuing operations is as follows:



		Twelve Months Ended
(Dollars in millions)		April 3, 2015			March 28, 2014			March 29, 2013
Earnings before interest and taxes	$	451		$	421		$	449
Interest expense, net		(22	)		(20	)		(18	)
Taxes on income		(161	)		(147	)		(162	)
Income from continuing operations	$	268		$	254		$	269


•	We announced contract awards⁽³⁾ of $2,933 million.


•	Total backlog⁽⁴⁾ at the end of fiscal 2015 was $11.1 billion, a decrease of $1.0 billion as compared to the backlog at the end of fiscal 2014 of $12.1 billion. Of the total $11.1 billion backlog, $3.8 billion is expected to be realized as revenue in fiscal 2016, and $8.5 billion is not yet funded.


•	Days Sales Outstanding (“DSO”)⁽⁵⁾was 64 days as of April 3, 2015, as compared to 63 days as of March 28, 2014.


•	Cash provided by operating activities was $487 million, as compared to $578 million during fiscal 2014.


•	Cash (used in) provided by investing activities was $(117) million, as compared to $75 million during fiscal 2014.


•	Cash used in financing activities was $369 million, as compared to $659 million during fiscal 2014.


•	Free cash flow⁽⁶⁾ was $387 million, as compared to $438 million in fiscal 2014.

(3)

Announced award values for competitive indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity awards represent the expected contract value at the time a task order is awarded under the contract. Announced values for non-competitive indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity awards represent management’s estimate at the award date. Our business awards, for all periods presented, have been recast to exclude the awards relating to businesses that have been sold.

(4)

Backlog represents total estimated contract value of predominantly long-term contracts, based on customer commitments that we believe to be firm, less the amount of revenue already recognized on those contracts. Backlog value is based on contract commitments, management’s judgment and assumptions about volume of services, availability of customer funding and other factors. Backlog estimates for government contracts include both the funded and unfunded portions and all of the option periods. Backlog estimates are subject to change and may be affected by factors including modifications of contracts and foreign currency movements. Our backlog, for all periods presented, has been recast to exclude the backlog relating to discontinued operations.


(5)	DSO is calculated as total receivables at the fiscal period end divided by revenue-per-day. Revenue-per-day equals total revenues divided by the number of days in the fiscal period. Total receivables includes unbilled receivables but excludes tax receivables and long-term receivables.


(6)	Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure and our definition of such measure may differ from that used by other companies. We define free cash flow as equal to the sum of (1) operating cash flows, (2) investing cash flows, excluding business acquisitions, dispositions and investments and (3) payments on capital leases and other long-term asset financings.

Our free cash flow measure does not distinguish operating cash flows from investing cash flows as they are required to be presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for operating and investing cash flows as determined in accordance with GAAP. Free cash flow is one of the factors our

management uses in reviewing the overall performance of the business. Management compensates for the limitations of this non-GAAP measure by also reviewing the GAAP measures of operating, investing and financing cash flows.

A reconciliation of free cash flow to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is presented below:



		Twelve Months Ended
(Dollars in millions)		April 3, 2015			March 28, 2014			March 29, 2013

Payments for acquisitions, net of cash acquired		49			—			34
Proceeds from business dispositions		(3	)		(171	)		(2	)

Results of Operations

Revenues

Revenues for the Defense and Intelligence, and Civil segments are as follows:



	Twelve Months Ended
	April 3, 2015				March 28, 2014				March 29, 2013
(Dollars in millions)		Amount	Percent Change			Amount	Percent Change			Amount
Defense and Intelligence	$	2,127	(8.7	)%	$	2,329	(15.7	)%	$	2,763
Civil		1,943	9.5	%		1,774	(7.3	)%		1,913
Total revenue		4,070	(0.8	)%		4,103	(12.3	)%		4,676

The major factors affecting the percent change in revenues are presented as follows:

Our fiscal 2015 revenue decreased $33 million, or 0.8%, as compared to fiscal 2014. This decline was primarily attributable to Defense and Intelligence contracts, partially offset by a revenue increase from Civil contracts.

Our fiscal 2014 revenue decreased $573 million, or 12.3%, as compared to fiscal 2013. This decline was primarily due to revenue decreases on both Defense and Intelligence, and Civil contracts, of $434 million, or 15.7%, and $139 million, or 7.3%, respectively.

Defense and Intelligence

Fiscal 2015

Defense and Intelligence segment revenues decreased $202 million, or 8.7%. These revenue decreases included reduced revenue on certain contracts with various agencies that either had concluded or were winding down, and reduced revenue due to a net reduction in tasking on existing contracts. These reductions are partially due to changes in U.S. federal government budgetary priorities and wind down of activities supporting defense agencies’

war efforts. These decreases were partially offset by revenue from an acquired entity and revenue from a new contract.

Fiscal 2014

Defense and Intelligence segment revenues decreased $434 million, or 15.7%. These revenue decreases included reduced revenue on certain contracts with various agencies that either had concluded or were winding down, and reduced revenue due to a net reduction in tasking on existing contracts. These reductions are partially due to changes in U.S. federal government budgetary priorities and wind down of activities supporting defense agencies’ war efforts.

Civil

Fiscal 2015

Civil segment revenues increased $169 million, or 9.5%. The increase was primarily due to revenue on a state contract that was previously deferred under software revenue recognition guidance, increases in revenue on certain contracts due to net increases in tasking and increases in new contracts. These increases were partially offset by contracts that had concluded or were winding down due to changes in U.S. federal government budgetary priorities.

Fiscal 2014

Civil segment revenues decreased $139 million, or 7.3%. The decrease in revenue was partially due to a reduction in scope and tasking on existing contracts and reduced revenue from programs winding down or ending. These revenue decreases were partially offset by new tasking on existing contracts, net favorable adjustments on contracts accounted for under the percentage-of-completion method, and a revenue increase on a state contract that was previously deferred under software revenue recognition guidance.

Costs and Expenses

Our total costs and expenses were as follows:



	Twelve Months Ended						Percentage of Revenue
(Dollars in millions)		April 3, 2015		March 28, 2014		March 29, 2013	2015		2014		2013
Costs of services (includes $8, $8 and $14 in 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively, of related party costs of services)	$	3,282	$	3,347	$	3,866	80.7	%	81.6	%	82.7	%

Total	$	3,641	$	3,702		4,244	89.5	%	90.2	%	90.8	%

Costs of Services

Fiscal 2015

Costs of services (“COS”), as a percentage of revenue, decreased to 80.7% for fiscal 2015 from 81.6% for fiscal 2014. Overall, COS benefited from lower indirect expenses compared to fiscal 2014 due to continued reductions in overhead management, other staff and facility costs. COS were also favorably impacted by the direct labor staffing profile cost reductions and other program related efficiencies.

Fiscal 2014

COS, as a percentage of revenue, decreased to 81.6% for fiscal 2014 from 82.7% for fiscal 2013. Overall, our fiscal 2014 COS ratio continued to be favorably impacted by lower overhead management and other staff headcount resulting from management’s restructuring efforts in the prior year that were directed at aligning resources to support business needs, including the assessment of management span of control and layers. Lower year-over-year total compensation and overall reduced spending also impacted the COS ratio favorably.

Selling, General, and Administrative

Fiscal 2015

Selling, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) expense, as a percentage of revenue increased to 4.8% for fiscal 2015 from 4.6% for fiscal 2014. The fiscal 2015 increase was primarily due to lower revenues and an increase in bid and proposal investments to win new and recompete contracts and increase the levels of backlog.

Fiscal 2014

SG&A expense, as a percentage of revenue, increased to 4.6% for fiscal 2014 from 4.3% for fiscal 2013.

Depreciation and Amortization

Fiscal 2015

Depreciation and amortization (“D&A”) as a percentage of revenue decreased slightly to 3.4% for fiscal 2015 from 3.5% for fiscal 2014.

Fiscal 2014

D&A as a percentage of revenue increased slightly to 3.5% for fiscal 2014 from 3.4% for fiscal 2013.

Income from Discontinued Operations

In the second quarter of 2014, we completed the sale of a portion of our base operations, aviation, and range services business unit, Applied Technology Division (“ATD”), a component within our business, to a strategic investor for cash consideration of $178 million plus a net working capital adjustment receivable of $6 million. The ATD divestiture resulted in a pre-tax gain of $55 million, representing the excess of the sale price over the carrying value of the net assets of the divested business, less transaction costs of $5 million. In 2015, we incurred approximately $2 million in after-tax losses related to this divestiture due to a settlement on ATD-related litigation and related legal expenses.

Interest expense, net

Fiscal 2015

Interest expense of $22 million in fiscal 2015 increased $2 million compared to $20 million in fiscal 2014. The increase was primarily due to the full year effect of the new capital leases added in fiscal 2014.

Fiscal 2014

Interest expense of $20 million in fiscal 2014 increased $2 million compared to $18 million in fiscal 2013. The higher interest expense was primarily due to the addition of new capital leases during the year within the Defense and Intelligence segment.

Other expense, net

Fiscal 2015

Other expenses of $6 million in fiscal 2015 increased as compared to $2 million in fiscal 2014. The $4 million increase is due to a $2 million increase in intercompany fees from CSC, coupled with a $2 million increase in foreign currency exchange losses.

Fiscal 2014

Other expenses of $2 million in fiscal 2014 increased slightly compared to $1 million in fiscal 2013. The $1 million increase is primarily due to a $2 million gain on sale of our interest in a joint venture recorded in 2013, with no comparable gain recorded in 2014, partially offset by an increase in foreign currency exchange gains of $1 million.

Taxes

Our effective tax rate (“ETR”) on income from continuing operations for fiscal years 2015, 2014, and 2013 was 37.6%, 36.6%, and 37.5%, respectively. Our tax returns are routinely audited and settlements of issues raised in these audits sometimes affect our tax provisions. A reconciliation of the differences between the U.S. federal statutory rate and the ETR, as well as other information about our income tax provision, is provided in Note 13, “Income taxes” to the accompanying combined financial statements. For the tax impact of discontinued operations, see Note 4, “Divestitures” to the accompanying combined financial statements.

Significant management judgment is required in determining our provision for income taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets. A $1.4 million valuation allowance has been recorded against deferred tax assets as of April 3, 2015 relating to net operating losses in foreign jurisdictions.

New Accounting Standards

See Note 1, “Basis of presentation and summary of significant accounting policies” to our accompanying combined financial statements for information related to our adoption of new accounting standards in fiscal 2015, 2014 and 2013 and for information on our anticipated adoption of recently issued accounting standards.

Net cash provided by operating activities for fiscal 2015 of $487 million decreased by $91 million as compared to fiscal 2014. This decrease in net operating cash flow was primarily attributable to a decrease in net income, coupled with lower year-over-year collections from customers. These decreases were partially offset by lower pension contributions.

Net cash provided by operating activities for fiscal 2014 was $578 million compared to fiscal 2013 of $563 million. This increase in net operating cash flow was primarily attributable to an increase in accrued expenses which was partially offset by lower year-over-year collections from customers and an increase in prepayments.

Investing Cash Flow

Net cash used in investing activities for fiscal 2015 was $117 million, as compared to cash provided by investing activities in fiscal 2014 of $75 million. The significant change resulted primarily from proceeds received from the 2014 divestiture of a portion of a business, which did not recur in fiscal 2015, coupled with the fiscal 2015 cash payments for an acquisition of a business which did not occur in fiscal 2014.

Net cash provided by investing activities for fiscal 2014 was $75 million compared to cash used in fiscal 2013 of $115 million. The change is primarily due to proceeds received related to the fiscal 2014 divestitures (Note 4, “Divestitures” to the accompanying combined financial statements) and a decrease in payments for acquisitions (Note 3, “Acquisitions” to the accompanying combined financial statements).

Financing Cash Flow

Net cash used in financing activities in fiscal 2015 was $369 million, a decrease of $290 million from fiscal 2014. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in cash transfers to CSC as a result of lower operating cash flows.

Net cash used in financing activities in fiscal 2014 was $659 million, an increase of $205 million from fiscal 2013. The increase was primarily due to an increase in cash transfers to CSC as a result of the improvement in cash provided by investing activities compared to fiscal 2013 partially offset by lower capital lease payments.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents were $5 million and $4 million as of April 3, 2015 and March 28, 2014, respectively.

As of April 3, 2015 and March 28, 2014, we had no debt outstanding.

Liquidity Risk

Current Liquidity. Our total liquidity is comprised of operating cash and cash equivalents. We have generated and expect to continue to generate positive operating cash flow to fund our requirements for working capital, capital expenditures, commitments and other discretionary investments. Our exposure to operational liquidity is primarily from long-term contracts which require significant investment of cash flows from operating activities during the initial phases of the contracts. The recovery of these investments is over the life of the contract and is dependent upon our performance as well as customer acceptance. Continued uncertainty in global economic conditions may also affect our business as customers and suppliers may decide to downsize, defer or cancel contracts, which could negatively affect operating cash flows.

Our largest use of cash flow has been net transfers to CSC, reflected as a component of net Parent investment in our combined statements of financial position. CSC uses a centralized approach for managing cash and financing activities. With certain exceptions, our cash is available for us and is regularly “swept” by the Parent at its discretion. Accordingly, our combined statements of financial position only reflect a minor cash balance.

Future Liquidity. Following the Spin-Off, our primary cash needs will continue to be for working capital, capital expenditures, commitments and other discretionary investments; however, our capital structure and sources of liquidity will change from our historical capital structure because we will no longer participate in CSC’s centralized cash management program. Our ability to fund our operating needs will depend, in part, on our future ability to continue to generate positive cash flow from operations or, if necessary, raise cash in the capital markets.

Prior to the completion of the Spin-Off, we expect to incur approximately $1.5 billion in new debt, which preliminarily is assumed to be $750 million in bank term loans and $750 million in senior secured notes. The amount of indebtedness to be incurred by us prior to the Spin-Off will be determined by CSC based on its view regarding an appropriate capital structure and amount of leverage for us as a standalone entity. We expect the net proceeds of the indebtedness we incur at or prior to the Distribution to fund some or all of the Special Dividend.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of April 3, 2015, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in our financial condition, revenues, or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.
