Fiscal 2019 Separation of USPS

During fiscal 2019, the Company completed the USPS Separation and Mergers to form Perspecta, an independent public company.

Implementation of the Separation and DXC's post-Separation relationship with Perspecta is governed by several agreements, including the following:

•a Separation and Distribution Agreement;

•an Employee Matters Agreement;

•a Tax Matters Agreement;

•an Intellectual Property Matters Agreement;

•a Transition Services Agreement;

•a Real Estate Matters Agreement;

•an IT Services Agreement and,

•a Non-US Agency Agreement.

These agreements provide for the allocation of assets, employees, liabilities and obligations (including property, employee benefits, litigation, and tax-related assets and liabilities) between DXC and Perspecta attributable to periods prior to, at and after the Separation. In addition, DXC and Perspecta have service and commercial contracts that generally extend through fiscal 2023. Results for the twelve months ended March 31, 2020 include $39 million of revenue and income from continuing operations before taxes associated with the IT services agreement.

Pursuant to the Separation and Distribution Agreement, immediately prior to the Separation, Perspecta made a net cash payment of $984 million to DXC, which reflects transaction consideration of $1,050 million less $66 million in principal amount of debt that was outstanding at a subsidiary of Perspecta. Perspecta financed the payment through borrowings under a new senior secured term loan facility.

DXC's Chief Financial Officer, Paul N. Saleh, served as a Director of Perspecta until his term ended on August 13, 2019. Due to Mr. Saleh's leadership position at DXC and former leadership position at Perspecta, Perspecta is considered a related party under ASC 850 "Related Party Disclosures" for fiscal 2020. Transactions with Perspecta were immaterial to the Company's financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020 and balances due to and from Perspecta were immaterial to the Company's balance sheet as of March 31, 2020.
