Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Note 1.  Basis of Presentation

Our Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Textron Inc. (Textron) and its majority-owned subsidiaries.  We have prepared these unaudited consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. for interim financial information.  Accordingly, these interim financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. for complete financial statements.  The consolidated interim financial statements included in this quarterly report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 2, 2016.  In the opinion of management, the interim financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that are necessary for the fair presentation of our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented.  The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Our financings are conducted through two separate borrowing groups.  The Manufacturing group consists of Textron consolidated with its majority-owned subsidiaries that operate in the Textron Aviation, Bell, Textron Systems and Industrial segments. The Finance group, which also is the Finance segment, consists of Textron Financial Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries. We designed this framework to enhance our borrowing power by separating the Finance group. Our Manufacturing group operations include the development, production and delivery of tangible goods and services, while our Finance group provides financial services. Due to the fundamental differences between each borrowing group’s activities, investors, rating agencies and analysts use different measures to evaluate each group’s performance.  To support those evaluations, we present balance sheet and cash flow information for each borrowing group within the Consolidated Financial Statements.  All significant intercompany transactions are eliminated from the Consolidated Financial Statements, including retail financing activities for inventory sold by our Manufacturing group and financed by our Finance group.

Use of Estimates

We prepare our financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  Our estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the effects of changes, if any, are reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Operations in the period that they are determined.

During 2016 and 2015, we changed our estimates of revenues and costs on certain long-term contracts that are accounted for under the percentage-of-completion method of accounting.  These changes in estimates increased income from continuing operations before income taxes in the first quarter of 2016 and 2015 by $29 million and $18 million, respectively, ($19 million and $11 million after tax, or $0.07 and $0.04 per diluted share, respectively).  For the first quarter of 2016 and 2015, the gross favorable program profit adjustments totaled $34 million and $33 million, respectively, and the gross unfavorable program profit adjustments totaled $5 million and $15 million, respectively.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, Leases, that requires all leases with a term greater than 12 months be recognized on the balance sheet, while lease expenses would continue to be recognized in the statement of operations in a manner similar to current accounting guidance.  The new standard is effective for our company at the beginning of fiscal 2019 and early adoption is permitted.  Entities must adopt the standard on a modified retrospective basis whereby it would be applied at the beginning of the earliest comparative year.  We are currently evaluating the impact of adoption on our consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, that outlines a comprehensive five-step revenue recognition model based on the principle that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. In July 2015, the FASB approved a one-year deferral of the effective date of the standard to the beginning of 2018 for public companies, with an option that would permit companies to adopt the standard as early as the original effective date of 2017.  The new standard may be adopted either retrospectively or on a modified retrospective basis whereby it would be applied to new contracts and existing contracts with remaining performance obligations as of the effective date, with a cumulative catch-up adjustment recorded to beginning retained earnings at the effective date for those contracts.  We are currently evaluating the impacts of adoption on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and related disclosures, along with the implementation approach to be used.

Note 2.  Business Acquisitions

In the first quarter of 2016, we paid $164 million in cash and assumed debt of $19 million to acquire four businesses, net of cash acquired and holdbacks.  Our acquisition of Able Engineering and Component Services, Inc. and Able Aerospace, Inc. (Able) represented the largest of these businesses and is included in the Textron Aviation segment.  Able is an industry-leading repair and overhaul business that provides component repairs, component exchanges and replacement parts, among other support and service offerings for commercial rotorcraft and fixed-wing aircraft customers around the world.  We are in the process of allocating the purchase price and valuing the acquired assets and liabilities for these acquisitions.  Based on the preliminary allocation of the aggregate purchase price for these acquisitions, $87 million has been allocated to goodwill, related to expected synergies and the value of the existing workforce, and $59 million to intangible assets.  Of the recorded goodwill, approximately $33 million is deductible for tax purposes.  The intangible assets are primarily related to customer relationships and technologies, which will be amortized over 10 to 18 years.  The operating results of these acquisitions have been included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations since their respective closing dates.

Note 3.  Retirement Plans

We provide defined benefit pension plans and other postretirement benefits to eligible employees.  The components of net periodic benefit cost (credit) for these plans are as follows:

	Pension Benefits				Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions
(In millions)	April 2, 2016		April 4, 2015		April 2, 2016				April 4, 2015
Three Months Ended

Amortization of prior service cost (credit)	4		4		(6)				(6)
Net periodic benefit cost (credit)	$	16	$	33	$	(1)			$		(1)
Note 4.  Share-Based Compensation Our share-based compensation plans provide stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, performance stock, performance share units and other awards.  Compensation expense included in net income for these plans is as follows:
					Three Months Ended
(In millions)					April 2, 2016				April 4, 2015
Compensation expense					$			7	$		31
Income tax benefit					(3)				(11)
Total net compensation expense included in net income					$			4	$		20
Stock Options Options to purchase our shares have a maximum term of ten years and generally vest ratably over a three-year period. The stock option compensation cost calculated under the fair value approach is recognized over the vesting period of the stock options.  We estimate the fair value of options granted on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.  Expected volatilities are based on implied volatilities from traded options on our common stock, historical volatilities and other factors.  The expected term is based on historical option exercise data, which is adjusted to reflect any anticipated changes in expected behavior. The weighted-average fair value of options granted and the assumptions used in our option-pricing model for such grants are as follows:
					Three Months Ended
					April 2, 2016				April 4, 2015
Fair value of options at grant date					$		10.33		$	14.03
Dividend yield					0.2%				0.2%
Expected volatility					33.6%				34.9%
Risk-free interest rate					1.2%				1.5%
Expected term (in years)					4.8				4.8

At April 2, 2016, our outstanding options had an aggregate intrinsic value of $57 million and a weighted-average remaining contractual life of seven years.  Our exercisable options had an aggregate intrinsic value of $53 million and a weighted-average remaining contractual life of six years at April 2, 2016.  The total intrinsic value of options exercised was $1 million and $8 million during the first quarter of 2016 and 2015, respectively. Restricted Stock Units The activity for restricted stock units payable in both stock and cash during the first quarter of 2016 is provided below:
	Units Payable in Stock			Units Payable in Cash

Note 5.  Earnings Per Share

We calculate basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) based on net income, which approximates income available to common shareholders for each period.  Basic EPS is calculated using the two-class method, which includes the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period and restricted stock units to be paid in stock that are deemed participating securities as they provide nonforfeitable rights to dividends. Diluted EPS considers the dilutive effect of all potential future common stock, including stock options.

The weighted-average shares outstanding for basic and diluted EPS are as follows:

	Three Months Ended
(In thousands)	April 2, 2016		April 4, 2015
Basic weighted-average shares outstanding	271,660		277,902
Dilutive effect of stock options	1,362		2,175
Diluted weighted-average shares outstanding	273,022		280,077
Stock options to purchase 4 million and 1 million shares of common stock outstanding are excluded from the calculation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the first quarter of 2016 and 2015, respectively, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive. Note 6.  Accounts Receivable and Finance Receivables Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable is composed of the following:
(In millions)	April 2, 2016		January 2, 2016
Commercial	$	914	$	841
U.S. Government contracts	327		239
	1,241		1,080
Allowance for doubtful accounts	(32)		(33)
Total	$	1,209	$	1,047
We have unbillable receivables, primarily on U.S. Government contracts, that arise when the revenues we have appropriately recognized based on performance cannot be billed yet under terms of the contract.  Unbillable receivables within accounts receivable totaled $196 million at April 2, 2016 and $135 million at January 2, 2016. Finance Receivables Finance receivables are presented in the following table:
(In millions)	April 2, 2016		January 2, 2016
Finance receivables*	$	1,114	$	1,135
Allowance for losses	(48)		(48)
Total finance receivables, net	$	1,066	$	1,087

* Includes finance receivables held for sale of $30 million at both April 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016.

Credit Quality Indicators and Nonaccrual Finance Receivables

We internally assess the quality of our finance receivables based on a number of key credit quality indicators and statistics such as delinquency, loan balance to estimated collateral value and the financial strength of individual borrowers and guarantors.  Because many of these indicators are difficult to apply across an entire class of receivables, we evaluate individual loans on a quarterly basis and classify these loans into three categories based on the key credit quality indicators for the individual loan.  These three categories are performing, watchlist and nonaccrual.

We classify finance receivables as nonaccrual if credit quality indicators suggest full collection of principal and interest is doubtful, we automatically classify accounts as nonaccrual once they are contractually delinquent by more than three months unless collection of principal and interest is not doubtful.  Accrual of interest income is suspended for these accounts and all cash collections are generally applied to reduce the net investment balance.  Once we conclude that the collection of all principal and interest is no longer doubtful, we resume the accrual of interest and recognize previously suspended interest income at the time either a) the loan becomes contractually current through payment according to the original terms of the loan, or b) if the loan has been modified, following a period of performance under the terms of the modification. Accounts are classified as watchlist when credit quality indicators have deteriorated as compared with typical underwriting criteria, and we believe collection of full

11

principal and interest is probable but not certain.  All other finance receivables that do not meet the watchlist or nonaccrual categories are classified as performing.

Delinquency

We measure delinquency based on the contractual payment terms of our finance receivables. In determining the delinquency aging category of an account, any/all principal and interest received is applied to the most past-due principal and/or interest amounts due.  If a significant portion of the contractually due payment is delinquent, the entire finance receivable balance is reported in accordance with the most past-due delinquency aging category.

Finance receivables categorized based on the credit quality indicators and by the delinquency aging category are summarized as follows:

(In millions)	April 2, 2016		January 2, 2016
Performing	$	866	$	891
Watchlist	139		130
Nonaccrual	79		84
Nonaccrual as a percentage of finance receivables	7.29%		7.60%
Less than 31 days past due	$	934	$	950
31-60 days past due	56		86
61-90 days past due	69		42
Over 90 days past due	25		27
60 + days contractual delinquency as a percentage of finance receivables	8.67%		6.24%

Impaired Loans

On a quarterly basis, we evaluate individual finance receivables for impairment in non-homogeneous portfolios and larger balance accounts in homogeneous loan portfolios. A finance receivable is considered impaired when it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement based on our review of the credit quality indicators described above. Impaired finance receivables include both nonaccrual accounts and accounts for which full collection of principal and interest remains probable, but the account’s original terms have been, or are expected to be, significantly modified. If the modification specifies an interest rate equal to or greater than a market rate for a finance receivable with comparable risk, the account is not considered impaired in years subsequent to the modification. Interest income recognized on impaired loans was not significant in the first quarter of 2016 or 2015.

A summary of impaired finance receivables, excluding leveraged leases, and the average recorded investment is provided below:

Allowance for Losses

We maintain an allowance for losses on finance receivables at a level considered adequate to cover inherent losses in the portfolio based on management’s evaluation.  For larger balance accounts specifically identified as impaired, a reserve is established based on comparing the expected future cash flows, discounted at the finance receivable’s effective interest rate, or the fair value of the underlying collateral if the finance receivable is collateral dependent, to its carrying amount. The expected future cash flows

12

consider collateral value; financial performance and liquidity of our borrower; existence and financial strength of guarantors; estimated recovery costs, including legal expenses; and costs associated with the repossession and eventual disposal of collateral.  When there is a range of potential outcomes, we perform multiple discounted cash flow analyses and weight the potential outcomes based on their relative likelihood of occurrence.  The evaluation of our portfolio is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates, including the amount and timing of future cash flows expected to be received on impaired finance receivables and the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, which may differ from actual results.  While our analysis is specific to each individual account, critical factors included in this analysis include industry valuation guides, age and physical condition of the collateral, payment history and existence and financial strength of guarantors.

We also establish an allowance for losses to cover probable but specifically unknown losses existing in the portfolio. This allowance is established as a percentage of non-recourse finance receivables, which have not been identified as requiring specific reserves. The percentage is based on a combination of factors, including historical loss experience, current delinquency and default trends, collateral values and both general economic and specific industry trends. Finance receivables are charged off at the earlier of the date the collateral is repossessed or when no payment has been received for six months, unless management deems the receivable collectible.

Note 10.  Derivative Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

We measure fair value at the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.  We prioritize the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability into a three-tier fair value hierarchy.  This fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority (Level 1) to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority (Level 3) to unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exist, requiring companies to develop their own assumptions.  Observable inputs that do not meet the criteria of Level 1, which include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, are categorized as Level 2.  Level 3 inputs are those that reflect our estimates about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances.  Valuation techniques for assets and liabilities measured using Level 3 inputs may include methodologies such as the market approach, the income approach or the cost approach and may use unobservable inputs such as projections, estimates and management’s interpretation of current market data.  These unobservable inputs are utilized only to the extent that observable inputs are not available or cost effective to obtain.

Assets and Liabilities Recorded at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

We manufacture and sell our products in a number of countries throughout the world, and, therefore, we are exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates. We utilize foreign currency exchange contracts to manage this volatility.  Our foreign currency exchange contracts are measured at fair value using the market method valuation technique.  The inputs to this technique utilize current foreign currency exchange forward market rates published by third-party leading financial news and data providers.  These are observable data that represent the rates that the financial institution uses for contracts entered into at that date; however, they are not based on actual transactions so they are classified as Level 2.  At April 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016, we had foreign currency exchange contracts with notional amounts upon which the contracts were based of $776 million and $706 million, respectively.  At April 2, 2016, the fair value amounts of our foreign currency exchange contracts were not significant.  At January 2, 2016, the fair value amounts of our foreign currency exchange contracts were a $7 million asset and a $28 million liability.

We primarily utilize forward exchange contracts which have maturities of no more than three years.  These contracts qualify as cash flow hedges and are intended to offset the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on forecasted sales, inventory purchases and overhead expenses.  At April 2, 2016, we had a net deferred loss of $3 million in Accumulated other comprehensive loss related to these cash flow hedges.  Net gains and losses recognized in earnings and Accumulated other comprehensive loss on cash flow hedges, including gains and losses related to hedge ineffectiveness, were not significant in the periods presented.

We hedge our net investment position in major currencies and generate foreign currency interest payments that offset other transactional exposures in these currencies. To accomplish this, we borrow directly in foreign currency and designate a portion of foreign currency debt as a hedge of a net investment. We record changes in the fair value of these contracts in other comprehensive income to the extent they are effective as cash flow hedges.  Currency effects on the effective portion of these hedges, which are reflected in the foreign currency translation adjustments within Accumulated other comprehensive loss, were not significant in the periods presented.

Assets Recorded at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

During the periods ended April 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016, the Finance group’s impaired nonaccrual finance receivables of $39 million and $45 million, respectively, were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). Impaired nonaccrual finance receivables represent assets recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis since the measurement of required reserves on our impaired finance receivables is significantly dependent on the fair value of the underlying collateral.  For impaired nonaccrual finance receivables secured by aviation assets, the fair values of collateral are determined primarily based on the use of industry pricing guides. Fair value measurements recorded on impaired finance receivables were not significant for both the three months ended April 2, 2016 and April 4, 2015.

Assets and Liabilities Not Recorded at Fair Value

The carrying value and estimated fair value of our financial instruments that are not reflected in the financial statements at fair value are as follows:

	April 2, 2016				January 2, 2016
(In millions)	Carrying Value		Estimated Fair Value		Carrying Value		Estimated Fair Value
Manufacturing group
Long-term debt, excluding leases	$	(2,972)	$	(3,127)	$	(2,628)	$	(2,744)
Finance group
Finance receivables, excluding leases	860		834		863		820
Debt	(888)		(817)		(913)		(840)

14

Fair value for the Manufacturing group debt is determined using market observable data for similar transactions (Level 2).  At both April 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016, approximately 75% of the fair value of term debt for the Finance group was determined based on discounted cash flow analyses using observable market inputs from debt with similar duration, subordination and credit default expectations (Level 2). Fair value estimates for finance receivables were determined based on internally developed discounted cash flow models primarily utilizing significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), which include estimates of the rate of return, financing cost, capital structure and/or discount rate expectations of current market participants combined with estimated loan cash flows based on credit losses, payment rates and expectations of borrowers’ ability to make payments on a timely basis.

Note 12.  Commitments and Contingencies

We are subject to legal proceedings and other claims arising out of the conduct of our business, including proceedings and claims relating to commercial and financial transactions; government contracts; alleged lack of compliance with applicable laws and regulations; production partners; product liability; patent and trademark infringement; employment disputes; and environmental, safety and health matters.  Some of these legal proceedings and claims seek damages, fines or penalties in substantial amounts or remediation of environmental contamination. As a government contractor, we are subject to audits, reviews and investigations to determine whether our operations are being conducted in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements. Under federal government procurement regulations, certain claims brought by the U.S. Government could result in our suspension or debarment from U.S. Government contracting for a period of time. On the basis of information presently available, we do not believe that existing proceedings and claims will have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

An analysis of our consolidated operating results is set forth below.  A more detailed analysis of our segments’ operating results is provided in the Segment Analysis section on pages 17 to 21. Revenues Revenues increased $128 million, 4%, in the first quarter of 2016, compared with the first quarter of 2015, largely driven by increases in the Industrial, Textron Aviation and Textron Systems segments. ·     Higher Industrial revenues of $80 million, primarily due to higher volume of $62 million, largely in the Fuel Systems and Functional Components product line, and the impact from an acquired business of $37 million. ·     Higher Textron Aviation revenues of $40 million, primarily due to higher Citation jet volume and mix. ·     Higher Textron Systems revenues of $9 million, primarily due to higher volume of $46 million in the Unmanned Systems product line, partially offset by lower volume of $42 million in the Weapons and Sensors product line. Cost of Sales and Selling and Administrative Expense Manufacturing cost of sales and selling and administrative expense together comprise our operating expenses. Cost of sales increased $126 million, 5%, in the first quarter of 2016, compared with the first quarter of 2015, largely due to higher volume at the Industrial and Textron Aviation segments and an increase from acquired businesses. Selling and administrative expense decreased $29 million, 9%, in the first quarter of 2016, compared with the first quarter of 2015, primarily due to lower share-based compensation expense. Backlog

Segment Analysis

We operate in, and report financial information for, the following five business segments: Textron Aviation, Bell, Textron Systems, Industrial and Finance.  Segment profit is an important measure used for evaluating performance and for decision-making purposes.  Segment profit for the manufacturing segments excludes interest expense and certain corporate expenses.  The measurement for the Finance segment includes interest income and expense.

In our discussion of comparative results for the Manufacturing group, changes in revenue and segment profit typically are expressed for our commercial business in terms of volume, pricing, foreign exchange and acquisitions.  Additionally, changes in segment profit may be expressed in terms of mix, inflation and cost performance. Volume changes in revenue represent increases/decreases in the number of units delivered or services provided.  Pricing represents changes in unit pricing.  Foreign exchange is the change resulting from translating foreign-denominated amounts into U.S. dollars at exchange rates that are different from the prior period.  Revenues generated by acquired businesses are reflected in Acquisitions for a twelve-month period. For segment profit, mix represents a change due to the composition of products and/or services sold at different profit margins.  Inflation represents higher material, wages, benefits, pension or other costs.  Performance reflects an increase or decrease in research and development, depreciation, selling and administrative costs, warranty, product liability, quality/scrap, labor efficiency, overhead, product line profitability, start-up, ramp up and cost-reduction initiatives or other manufacturing inputs.

17

Approximately 24% of our 2015 revenues were derived from contracts with the U.S. Government.  For our segments that have significant contracts with the U.S. Government, we typically express changes in segment profit related to the government business in terms of volume, changes in program performance or changes in contract mix. Changes in volume that are described in net sales typically drive corresponding changes in our segment profit based on the profit rate for a particular contract. Changes in program performance typically relate to profit recognition associated with revisions to total estimated costs at completion that reflect improved or deteriorated operating performance or award fee rates. Changes in contract mix refers to changes in operating margin due to a change in the relative volume of contracts with higher or lower fee rates such that the overall average margin rate for the segment changes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources Our financings are conducted through two separate borrowing groups.  The Manufacturing group consists of Textron consolidated with its majority-owned subsidiaries that operate in the Textron Aviation, Bell, Textron Systems and Industrial segments.  The Finance group, which also is the Finance segment, consists of Textron Financial Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries.  We designed this framework to enhance our borrowing power by separating the Finance group.  Our Manufacturing group operations include the development, production and delivery of tangible goods and services, while our Finance group provides financial services.  Due to the fundamental differences between each borrowing group’s activities, investors, rating agencies and analysts use different measures to evaluate each group’s performance.  To support those evaluations, we present balance sheet and cash flow information for each borrowing group within the Consolidated Financial Statements. Key information that is utilized in assessing our liquidity is summarized below:
(Dollars in millions)	April 2, 2016				January 2, 2016
Manufacturing group
Cash and equivalents	$		723		$				946

Finance group
Cash and equivalents	$		55		$				59
Debt	888				913

We believe that our calculations of debt to capital and net debt to capital are useful measures as they provide a summary indication of the level of debt financing (i.e., leverage) that is in place to support our capital structure, as well as to provide an indication of the capacity to add further leverage.  We believe that we will have sufficient cash to meet our future needs, based on our existing cash balances, the cash we expect to generate from our manufacturing operations and other available funding alternatives, as appropriate.

Textron has a senior unsecured revolving credit facility that expires in October 2018 for an aggregate principal amount of $1.0 billion, of which up to $100 million is available for the issuance of letters of credit.  At April 2, 2016, there were no amounts borrowed against the facility.

We also maintain an effective shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission that allows us to issue an unlimited amount of public debt and other securities.  In March 2016, we issued $350 million in 4.0% Notes due March 2026 under this registration statement.

Financing activities	173		21

The first quarter of our fiscal year typically results in net cash outflow from operating activities. Consistent with prior years, we expect positive cash flows from operating activities for the full year.

Cash flows used in operating activities in the first quarter of 2016 primarily related to higher inventory levels of $313 million and incentive and deferred compensation payments of $139 million, partially offset by earnings.  The higher inventory levels in the first quarter of 2016 were largely due to increases at Textron Aviation and Textron Systems to support sales growth. In the first quarter of 2015, cash flows used in operating activities primarily related to higher inventory levels of $327 million and incentive and deferred compensation payments of $152 million, partially offset by earnings.  The decrease in cash flows from operating activities of $81 million in the first quarter of 2016, compared with the first quarter of 2015, was primarily due to a decrease in customer deposits related to performance-based payments on certain military contracts.

During the first quarter of 2016, investing activities reflected aggregate cash payments of $164 million for four business acquisitions, compared with payments of $32 million for acquisitions in the first quarter of 2015. Cash used for investing activities also included capital expenditures of $88 million and $79 million in the first quarter of 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Financing activities in the first quarter of 2016 primarily included proceeds of $345 million from long-term debt, partially offset by $215 million in cash paid to repurchase an aggregate of 6.2 million shares of our outstanding common stock under a 2013 share repurchase authorization.

Finance Group Cash Flows

Cash flows from continuing operations for the Finance group as presented in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows are summarized below:

Financing activities	(29)		(52)

The Finance group’s cash flows from investing activities primarily included collections on finance receivables totaling $68 million and $112 million in the first quarter of 2016 and 2015, respectively, partially offset by finance receivable originations of $55 million and $50 million, respectively.  Cash used for financing activities included payments on long-term and nonrecourse debt of $46 million in the first quarter of 2016, compared with $70 million of payments in the first quarter of 2015.

Investing activities	(225)		(57)
Financing activities	144		(31)

Cash flows used in operating activities in the first quarter of 2016 primarily related to higher inventory levels of $313 million and incentive and deferred compensation payments of $142 million, partially offset by earnings.  The higher inventory levels in the first quarter of 2016 were largely due to increases at Textron Aviation and Textron Systems to support sales growth. In the first quarter of 2015, cash flows used in operating activities primarily related to higher inventory levels of $327 million and incentive and deferred compensation payments of $155 million, partially offset by earnings.  The decrease in cash flows from operating activities of $131 million in the first quarter of 2016, compared with the first quarter of 2015, was primarily due to a decrease in customer deposits related to performance-based payments on certain military contracts.

Investing cash flows included cash used for acquisitions of $164 million and $32 million and capital expenditures of $88 million and $79 million in the first quarter of 2016 and 2015, respectively.  Total cash flows from financing activities in the first quarter of 2016, primarily included proceeds of $362 million from long-term debt, partially offset by $215 million of share repurchases.

Captive Financing and Other Intercompany Transactions

The Finance group finances retail purchases and leases for new and pre-owned aircraft and helicopters manufactured by our Manufacturing group, otherwise known as captive financing.  In the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, cash received from customers or from the sale of receivables is reflected as operating activities when received from third parties.  However, in the cash flow information provided for the separate borrowing groups, cash flows related to captive financing activities are reflected based on the operations of each group.  For example, when product is sold by our Manufacturing group to a customer and is financed by the Finance group, the origination of the finance receivable is recorded within investing activities as a cash outflow in the Finance group’s statement of cash flows.  Meanwhile, in the Manufacturing group’s statement of cash flows, the cash received from the Finance group on the customer’s behalf is recorded within operating cash flows as a cash inflow.  Although cash is transferred between the two borrowing groups, there is no cash transaction reported in the consolidated cash flows at the time of the original financing.  These captive financing activities, along with all significant intercompany transactions, are reclassified or eliminated from the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Reclassification adjustments included in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows are summarized below:

Critical Accounting Estimates

The accounting policies that we believe are most critical to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations are disclosed on pages 31 through 33 in our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K.  The following section provides an update of the year-end disclosure for long-term contracts to include program profit adjustments made during the quarter.

Long-Term Contracts

We make a substantial portion of our sales to government customers pursuant to long-term contracts.  These contracts require development and delivery of products over multiple years and may contain fixed-price purchase options for additional products.  We account for these long-term contracts under the percentage-of-completion method of accounting.  Under this method, we estimate profit as the difference between total estimated revenues and cost of a contract.  The percentage-of-completion method of accounting involves the use of various estimating techniques to project costs at completion and, in some cases, includes estimates of recoveries asserted against the customer for changes in specifications.  Due to the size, length of time and nature of many of our contracts, the estimation of total contract costs and revenues through completion is complicated and subject to many variables relative to the outcome of future events over a period of several years.  We are required to make numerous assumptions and estimates relating to items such as expected engineering requirements, complexity of design and related development costs, product performance, performance of subcontractors, availability and cost of materials, labor productivity and cost, overhead and

23

capital costs, manufacturing efficiencies and the achievement of contract milestones, including product deliveries, technical requirements, or schedule.

At the outset of each contract, we estimate the initial profit booking rate. The initial profit booking rate of each contract considers risks surrounding the ability to achieve the technical requirements (for example, a newly-developed product versus a mature product), schedule (for example, the number and type of milestone events), and costs by contract requirements in the initial estimated costs at completion. Profit booking rates may increase during the performance of the contract if we successfully retire risks surrounding the technical, schedule, and costs aspects of the contract. Likewise, the profit booking rate may decrease if we are not successful in retiring the risks; and, as a result, our estimated costs at completion increase. All of the estimates are subject to change during the performance of the contract and, therefore, may affect the profit booking rate. When adjustments are required, any changes from prior estimates are recognized using the cumulative catch-up method with the impact of the change from inception-to-date recorded in the current period. The aggregate gross amount of all program profit adjustments that are included within segment profit are presented below.

Exhibit 10.1

NOTICE OF GRANT OF STOCK

OPTION AND OPTION AGREEMENT

NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION

Pursuant to the Textron Inc. 2015 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), you (the “optionee”) have been granted a Non-Qualified Stock Option (“Option”), which constitutes the option to buy a specified number of shares of Textron Inc. Common Stock (“Shares”) at a specified fixed price equal to the closing price of a Share on the grant date. This grant is governed by the Non-Qualified Stock Option Terms and Conditions (“Terms and Conditions”) attached hereto and the Plan (available on the Administrator’s website), and is subject to the Stock Option Non-Competition Agreement (the “Non-Competition Agreement”) attached hereto.

The Option granted will become exercisable at the time(s), and subject to the conditions, set forth in the Terms and Conditions.  The Option will expire on the tenth anniversary of the grant date, subject to earlier expiration or termination as provided in the Terms and Conditions.

You must log into your account on the Administrator’s website to view the number of Shares for which the Option was granted (the “Option Shares”), the grant date, and the exercise price, as well as to accept your grant.  (For annual grants, the number of Option Shares is also reflected on your compensation statement.)  If you do not accept your grant prior to the first date any portion of the Option becomes exercisable (or prior to the date your employment terminates for any reason, if earlier), your grant will be forfeited.  Although Textron has completed the steps necessary to grant you this Option, you cannot exercise the Option unless you accept the grant before the deadline.

By your acceptance of this grant, you agree that this Option is governed by the Terms and Conditions attached hereto and the Plan. In addition, you agree that this grant is subject to the Non-Competition Agreement attached hereto, the terms of which are fully incorporated herein. You acknowledge that you have read and understand these documents as they apply to your grant.

NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

(3/2016)

Grant of Option. Pursuant to the Textron Inc. 2015 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), Textron has granted to the optionee the right and option (the “Option”) to purchase a specified number of shares of Common Stock (“Shares”) subject to the Terms and Conditions set forth herein.  (The Shares for which this Option was granted are referred to herein as the “Option Shares.”)  The number of Option Shares and grant date are recorded on the Administrator’s website for the Plan (and, for annual grants, on the optionee’s compensation statement).

Purchase Price. The purchase price (also called the “exercise price”) of the Option Shares shall be the closing price of a Share on the grant date, as reported on the Administrator’s website for the Plan.

Term of Option and Period of Exercise. The Option shall expire ten years from the grant date, subject to earlier expiration or termination as hereinafter provided, and may be exercised with respect to all or a portion of the Option Shares as provided in this Section.  Except as provided in Section 6(c) or (e) (relating to Disability or death) or Section 9 (Change of Control) hereof, the Option may not be exercised before the first anniversary of the grant date.  Beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date, the Option will become exercisable in thirds on the following dates (subject to the Terms and Conditions set forth herein):

·The first third of the Option Shares, on the first anniversary of the grant date;

·The second third of the Option Shares, on the second anniversary of the grant date; and

·The last third of the Option Shares, on the third anniversary of the grant date.

The Option shall not be exercisable for less than 50 Option Shares (or the remaining number of Option Shares if that number is less than 50) or after it has expired or terminated.  The “Expiration Date” for the Option is the earlier of (a) the tenth anniversary of the grant date or (b) the date as of which the Option ceases to be exercisable pursuant to Section 6 (Termination of Employment) hereof.

Exercise of Option.

(a)Subject to the Terms and Conditions set forth herein and the Non-Competition Agreement entered into in consideration of this Option, the Option may be exercised by contacting the Administrator directly via telephone or via the Administrator’s website. During the life of the optionee, an Option shall be exercisable only by the optionee.  If the Option is being exercised pursuant to Section 6(c) or (e) by any person or persons other than the optionee, appropriate proof of the right of such person or persons to exercise the Option must be provided.

Non-Qualified Stock Option

Terms and Conditions

Page 1

(b)The purchase price of the Option Shares shall be paid in full at the time of exercise (1) in cash, (2) by tendering shares of Common Stock then owned by the optionee, (3) by withholding Option Shares (“net share settlement”), or (4) by any other method authorized by Textron at the time of exercise.  Except as provided in Section 6 (Termination of Employment), the Option may not be exercised unless the optionee was an employee of either Textron or a Subsidiary at all times from the grant date through the date exercised. With respect to the Option Shares, the optionee shall have no rights as a shareholder of Textron unless and until shares of Common Stock have been issued to the optionee.

(c)Automatic Exercise.  To the extent that the Option is exercisable and has not yet been exercised, the Option shall be automatically exercised as of the Expiration Date if the following conditions are satisfied: (1) the optionee’s employment with Textron or a Subsidiary has not been terminated for Cause (as defined below); (2) the Option has not terminated by reason of a breach of the optionee’s obligations under the Non-Competition Agreement, and (3) the Fair Market Value of an Option Share as of the Expiration Date exceeds the exercise price thereof by at least $1.00.  If the conditions in the immediately preceding sentence are satisfied, the optionee shall be deemed to have delivered notice of exercise on the Expiration Date, and the exercise price shall be paid through net share settlement, except as otherwise determined by Textron at the time of exercise.

Non-Assignability of Option.  The Option shall not be assignable or transferable by the optionee except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, or as otherwise expressly permitted by the Plan.  Tax withholding with respect to any Option that is transferred or assigned shall be determined by Textron in accordance with applicable law (which may require the optionee to pay taxes with respect to a transferred Option).

Termination of Employment.  Following the optionee’s termination of employment with Textron and its Subsidiaries, the Option shall be exercisable only as follows:

(d)If the optionee’s employment terminates for Cause, all Option(s) held by the optionee shall be terminated and forfeited immediately, without any opportunity to exercise or consideration therefor.

(e)If the optionee’s employment terminates (other than for Cause) after the optionee has become eligible for Retirement, the optionee shall have the right to exercise the Option within 48 months after the termination of employment, to the extent the Option is exercisable (and has not expired) under Section 3 at the time of exercise.

(f)If the optionee’s employment terminates by reason of the optionee’s Disability or death, the optionee (or, in the case of death, the optionee’s Beneficiary) shall have the right to exercise the Option as to all unexercised Option Shares (whether or not the Option was fully exercisable at the time of termination of employment) within 60 months after the termination of employment, but not after the Expiration Date.

Non-Qualified Stock Option

Terms and Conditions

Page 2

(g)If the optionee’s employment terminates under circumstances not described in Section 6(a), (b), or (c), the optionee shall have the right to exercise the Option within three months after the optionee’s termination of employment (or within such longer period, up to 48 months after the optionee’s termination of employment, as determined by the Committee but not after the Expiration Date and, unless otherwise determined by the Committee (to the extent permitted by the Plan), only to the extent the Option is exercisable when the optionee’s employment terminates.

(h)If the optionee dies while the Option is still exercisable under Section 6(b), (c) or (d), the Option may be exercised as to all unexercised Option Shares that either (i) are exercisable as of the optionee’s death or (ii) could have become exercisable under Section 6(b), (c), or (d), as applicable, if the optionee had not died.  The Option shall not be exercised after the Expiration Date prescribed by Section 6(b), (c), or (d), as applicable.

(i)In no event shall the Option be exercisable after the Expiration Date.

No Right to Employment. Nothing in this document shall confer upon the optionee the right to continue in the employment of Textron or a Subsidiary or affect any right which Textron or a Subsidiary may have to terminate the employment of the optionee.

Corporate Changes.  The number and kind of Option Shares and/or the purchase price thereof shall be equitably adjusted at the sole discretion of the Committee in the event of a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation, reclassification, merger, consolidation, separation, extraordinary cash dividend, split-up, spin-off, combination, exchange of Shares, warrants or rights offering to purchase Shares, or any other corporate event or distribution of stock or property of the Company affecting the Common Stock, in order to preserve the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available to the optionee.

Change of Control.

(j)If a Change of Control occurs before the Expiration Date, a successor to Textron shall either assume the Option or replace the Option with either (i) an immediate cash payment for each unexercised and unexpired Option Share (whether then exercisable or not exercisable), equal to the excess (if any) of the fair market value of such Option Share over the exercise price for such Option Share, or (ii) a replacement award that materially preserves the value of the Option and has a vesting schedule (including acceleration events) that is at least as favorable as the schedule in effect as of the Change of Control.  If the Option is not assumed or replaced in accordance with the immediately foregoing sentence, the optionee shall be entitled to exercise the Option (with respect to all unexpired Option Shares, whether then exercisable or not exercisable) immediately before the Change of Control.

(k)If, within two years after a Change of Control (and before the Expiration Date), the optionee’s employment with Textron and its Subsidiaries ends due to involuntary termination without Cause or resignation for Good Reason (as defined below), the Option shall immediately become exercisable as to all unexercised Option Shares.  If the Option becomes exercisable under this Section 9(b), it shall remain exercisable until the Expiration Date.

Terms and Conditions

Definition of Certain Terms. Terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Plan.

Option Subject to Plan. The Option is in all respects subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan as in effect from time to time; provided, however, that termination or amendment of the Plan (except amendments as required by technical corrections of the Internal Revenue Code) shall not, without the consent of the optionee, adversely affect the optionee’s rights under the Option.

Non-Qualified Option. The Option is a “Non-Qualified Option” as defined in the Plan and not an “incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code.  The terms of the Option and this agreement shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with the intent that the Option be exempt from the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.

Clawback. This Option shall be subject to the clawback provision set forth in the Plan and/or any other clawback procedure of Textron, as in effect and as amended from time to time.

(WITH DIVIDEND EQUIVALENTS)

AND RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT

Pursuant to the Textron Inc. 2015 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), you (the “executive”) have been awarded Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”), each of which constitutes the right to receive a share of Common Stock of Textron Inc.

The RSUs awarded include dividend equivalents.  The RSUs will vest at the time, and subject to the conditions, set forth in the Terms and Conditions.

As detailed in the Terms and Conditions, the Shares will generally become issuable to you after each Period of Restriction ends, at the times set forth in the Terms and Conditions, subject to expiration or termination without issuance of Shares as provided in the Terms and Conditions and Non-Competition Agreement.

TEXTRON INC. 2015 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

(3/2016)

Award of RSUs. Pursuant to the Textron Inc. 2015 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), Textron has awarded to the executive Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”), subject to the Terms and Conditions set forth herein.  The number of RSUs granted and the award date are recorded on the Administrator’s website for the Plan (and, for annual grants, on the executive’s compensation statement).

Vesting Schedule. Subject to the Terms and Conditions set forth herein, the RSUs will vest in thirds, and the Period of Restriction for each third will end as follows:

·For the first third, on the third anniversary of the award date;

·For the second third, on the fourth anniversary of the award date; and

·For the last third, on the fifth anniversary of the award date.

Settlement.

(a)        If the RSUs were designated as cash-settled RSUs when they were awarded, each RSU constitutes the right to receive a cash payment equal to the fair market value of one Share.  The fair market value of a Share equals the per-share closing price of Textron’s Common Stock, as reported on the New York Stock Exchange, on the date that the Period of Restriction ends.  As the Period of Restriction for each RSU ends, Textron will pay to the executive the cash amount for such RSU, subject to required tax withholding. Except as otherwise provided in Section 4 (Termination of Employment), such cash payment shall be made within thirty (30) days after the Period of Restriction ends.

(b)        If the RSUs were not designated as cash-settled RSUs when they were awarded, Textron will issue to the executive the number of Shares for which the applicable Period of Restriction has ended, less the number of Shares needed to satisfy required tax withholding.  Except as otherwise provided in Section 4 (Termination of Employment), such Shares shall be delivered within thirty (30) days after the Period of Restriction ends.  Shares may be issued in the form of a certificate or a notification to the executive that the Shares are held in a book-entry account on the executive’s behalf.  Fractional Shares may be paid in cash.

Termination of Employment.  If the executive’s employment with Textron and its Subsidiaries ends for any reason before the end of an applicable Period of Restriction, the executive shall forfeit all RSUs for which the Period of Restriction has not yet ended (and, as a result, shall forfeit all Shares and cash that may otherwise have been delivered or paid pursuant to such RSUs), subject to the following:

Restricted Stock Unit

Terms and Conditions

Page 1

(a)        If the executive’s employment with Textron terminates for Cause, the executive shall forfeit all RSUs for which the Period of Restriction has not yet ended (and, as a result, shall forfeit all Shares and cash that may otherwise have been delivered or paid pursuant to such RSUs).

(b)        If the executive’s employment terminates (other than for Cause) after the executive has become eligible for Retirement, the executive will remain eligible to receive cash or Shares (as applicable) after each applicable Period of Restriction, as if the executive’s employment had not terminated (but subject to forfeiture in accordance with the Non-Competition Agreement); provided, however, that if the executive’s employment terminates within two years after a Change of Control, the payment schedule set forth in subsection (d), below, shall apply.

(c)        If the executive becomes Disabled or dies, the Period of Restriction for all outstanding RSUs shall end immediately.  In such instance, Textron shall issue Shares or make a cash payment, as applicable, to the executive (or, in the case of death, to the executive’s Beneficiary) within 30 days after the executive’s Disability or death or as soon as administratively feasible (i.e., after Textron is notified of the Disability or death).  The amount of the cash payment for a cash-settled RSU shall be determined based on the closing price of Textron’s Common Stock, as reported on the New York Stock Exchange, on the first business day after the executive’s Disability or death. The amount payable (or Shares deliverable) for RSUs shall not be adjusted for any delay caused by time needed to validate the executive’s status as Disabled or dead, or to authenticate a Beneficiary.

(d)       If, within two years after a Change of Control, the executive’s employment ends due to involuntary termination without Cause or resignation for Good Reason, the Period of Restriction for all outstanding RSUs shall end immediately.  In such instance, Textron shall deliver Shares or make a cash payment, as applicable, to the executive (or, in the case of death, to the executive’s Beneficiary) on the Six-Month Pay Date.  If the RSUs are settled in cash, the amount of cash payable on the Six-Month Pay Date shall be determined based on the closing price of Textron’s Common Stock (or the successor thereto) on the last business day of the last calendar month that ends before the Six-Month Pay Date; provided, however, that if it is not feasible to calculate the closing price as of the last business day of such month, the amount of cash shall be determined based on the last price available.

Note: Sale of a business unit usually does not constitute a Change of Control as defined in the Plan.

Change of Control.  If a Change of Control occurs, a successor to Textron shall either assume Textron’s obligations with respect to the RSUs or replace this RSU award with a cash or equity-based award that materially preserves the RSU award’s value and has vesting and payment schedules (including acceleration events) that are no less favorable to the executive than the schedules in effect immediately before the Change of Control. If this RSU award is not assumed or replaced in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the RSUs shall be fully vested, non-forfeitable, and payable; provided that payment shall not be accelerated if accelerating payment would violate a requirement of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.

Corporate Changes.  The number of RSUs awarded to the executive hereunder shall be equitably adjusted at the sole discretion of the Committee in the event of a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation, reclassification,

Restricted Stock Unit

Terms and Conditions

Page 2

merger, consolidation, separation, extraordinary cash dividend, split-up, spin-off, combination, exchange of Shares, warrants or rights offering to purchase Shares, or any other corporate event or distribution of stock or property of the Company affecting the Common Stock, in order to preserve the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available to the executive.

No Right to Employment.  Nothing in these Terms and Conditions shall confer upon the executive the right to continue in the employment of Textron or any Subsidiary or affect any right that Textron or any Subsidiary may have to terminate the employment of the executive.

Non-Assignability of RSUs.  The RSUs shall not be assignable or transferable by the executive, except to the extent expressly permitted by the Plan.  Tax withholding with respect to any RSU that is transferred or assigned shall be determined by Textron in accordance with applicable law (which may require the executive to pay taxes with respect to a transferred RSU).  Any Shares issued under an RSU, once issued to the executive, shall be freely transferable.

Voting.  The executive shall not have voting rights with respect to the Shares underlying RSUs before the Shares are issued (if applicable) to the executive.

Dividend Equivalents.  If (and only if) the executive’s award of RSUs includes dividend equivalents, the award shall entitle the executive to receive an amount equal to any cash dividend declared with respect to the number of Shares represented by those RSUs, but only to the extent that the RSUs have not been issued as Shares, converted to a cash payment amount, or terminated or forfeited before the record date for such dividend.  Dividend equivalents shall be paid at the same rate and same time that dividends on Shares are paid to Textron shareholders.  The dividend equivalents shall be reduced by the amount of any required tax withholding, and the net amount shall be paid in cash to the executive.

Clawback. The RSUs shall be subject to the clawback provision set forth in the Plan and/or any other clawback procedure of Textron, as in effect and as amended from time to time.

Administration. In accordance with the Plan, the Committee may, from time to time, delegate some or all of its authority under the Plan to a subcommittee or to one or more officers or employees of Textron.

Withholding Taxes. All payments and delivery of Shares with respect to RSUs shall be subject to tax withholding.  Textron shall have the right to withhold cash or Shares (as applicable) from any payment or delivery to the extent that Textron determines is necessary to satisfy any Federal, state and local withholding tax requirements.

Section 409A.  The terms and conditions of the RSUs shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with the intent to be exempt from or comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.  For example, the phrase “as soon as practicable” and similar phrases with respect to payment dates shall be interpreted and administered consistent with the intent that, subject to the executive (or Beneficiary) providing all required information, payment shall not be delayed beyond the latest date permitted by Section 409A.  For purposes of Section 409A, each installment in any series of installment payments (or deliveries of Shares) shall be treated as a separate payment.

RSUs Subject to Plan.  The RSUs shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan in all respects.  In the case of RSUs awarded under a long-term incentive plan other than the Textron Inc. 2015 Long-Term Incentive Plan, the term “Plan” as used in these Terms and Conditions shall refer to the plan under which the RSUs were awarded.  Each term that is used but not defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan.

Exhibit 10.3

NOTICE OF AWARD OF PERFORMANCE SHARE

UNITS AND PERFORMANCE SHARE UNIT

AGREEMENT

Pursuant to the Textron Inc. 2015 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), you (the “executive”) have been awarded Performance Share Units (“PSUs”), each of which constitutes the right to receive, if earned pursuant to the terms, a cash payment equal to the fair market value of a share of Common Stock of Textron Inc. (a “Share”). Your number of PSUs will be determined based on a formula tied to performance measures (subject to the discretion of the Committee, to the extent provided in the Plan), and fair market value will be as provided in the Performance Share Unit Terms and Conditions (the “Terms and Conditions”) attached hereto. This award is governed by the Terms and Conditions and the Plan (available on the Administrator’s website), and is subject to the Performance Share Unit Non-Competition Agreement (the “Non-Competition Agreement”) attached hereto.

The Performance Period is the three (3) year period beginning on the first day of the fiscal year in which the PSUs are awarded. Separate performance measures will be established for each fiscal year within the Performance Period, and the performance measures for each fiscal year will apply to one third of the PSUs awarded for the Performance Period. The Committee has discretion to reduce the number of units earned relative to each fiscal year or for all three fiscal years in the Performance Period. Performance measures for each fiscal year in the Performance Period will be established and communicated to you separately from this notice.

Except as otherwise provided in the Terms and Conditions, the cash value of all PSUs will be paid (to the extent earned) during the month of March following the end of the Performance Period. All PSUs, including PSUs earned based on annual performance in the first or second fiscal year of the Performance Period, remain subject to forfeiture until the end of the Performance Period as provided in the Terms and Conditions.

You must log into your account on the Administrator’s website to view the number of units awarded, as well as to accept your award. If you do not accept your award prior to the end of the Performance Period (or prior to the date your employment terminates for any reason, if earlier), your award will be forfeited. Although Textron has completed the steps necessary to grant you this award, you cannot receive any payment under the award unless you accept the award before the deadline.

By your acceptance of this award, you agree that this award is governed by the Terms and Conditions attached hereto and the Plan. In addition, you agree that this award is subject to the Non-Competition Agreement, the terms of which are fully incorporated herein. You acknowledge that you have read and understand these documents as they apply to your awards.

Please be sure to log into your account and accept your award as soon as possible to avoid the risk that your award will be forfeited for non-acceptance.

TEXTRON INC. 2015 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN
PERFORMANCE SHARE UNIT
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(3/2016)

Award of PSUs. Pursuant to the Textron Inc. 2015 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), Textron has awarded to the executive Performance Share Units (“PSUs”), subject to the Terms and Conditions set forth herein. The number of PSUs payable under this award will be determined by Textron based on achievement of predefined performance measures or targets over each fiscal year in the Performance Period.

Settlement.  Each PSU earned by the executive constitutes the right to receive a cash payment equal to the fair market value of one Share.  Except as otherwise provided in Sections 3 (Termination of Employment) or 4 (Change of Control):

(a)The fair market value of a Share equals the average of the per-share closing prices of Textron’s Common Stock, as reported on the New York Stock Exchange, on the first ten trading days immediately following the end of the Performance Period; and

(b)Textron will pay the executive (or the executive’s Beneficiary in the event of the executive’s death prior to payment) the cash amount for the PSUs earned by the executive during the month of March following the end of the Performance Period.

Termination of Employment.  If the executive’s employment with Textron and its Subsidiaries ends for any reason before the end of the Performance Period, the executive shall forfeit all outstanding PSUs (including, but not limited to, PSUs that have already been earned based on performance during a prior fiscal year), subject to the following:

(a)If the executive’s employment with Textron terminates for Cause, the executive shall forfeit all PSUs (including, but not limited to, PSUs that have already been earned based on annual performance during a fiscal year in the Performance Period).

(b)If the executive’s employment terminates (other than for Cause) after the executive has become eligible for Retirement, the executive will remain eligible to earn PSUs (and receive payment for such PSUs) as if the executive’s employment had not terminated (but subject to forfeiture in accordance with the Non-Competition Agreement); provided, however, that if the executive’s employment terminates within two years after a Change of Control, the payment schedule set forth in subsection (d), below, shall apply.

(c)If the executive becomes Disabled or dies before the end of the Performance Period (and while executive is eligible to earn PSUs), Textron will make a cash payment to the executive (or, in the case of death, to the executive’s Beneficiary) within 30 days after the executive’s Disability or death or as soon as administratively feasible (i.e., after Textron is notified of the Disability or death).  Such cash payment shall equal the closing price for a Share, as reported on the New York Stock Exchange, on the first business day after the executive’s Disability or death, times the sum of (1) the PSUs (if any) actually earned for any fiscal year that is completed before the

Performance Share Unit
Terms and Conditions

Page 1

executive’s Disability or death, and (2) a Pro-Rata Portion of the PSUs that the executive would have earned for target performance for the fiscal year of the executive’s Disability or death (unless the Disability or death occurs on the last day of the fiscal year, in which case the number of PSUs awarded would be the number actually earned).  The amount payable shall not be adjusted for any delay caused by time needed to validate the executive’s status as Disabled or dead, or to authenticate a Beneficiary.

(d)If, within two years after a Change of Control, the executive’s employment ends due to involuntary termination without Cause or resignation for Good Reason, the applicable Performance Period for the PSUs shall end immediately.  In such instance, Textron shall make a cash payment to the executive (or, in the case of death, to the executive’s Beneficiary) on the Six-Month Pay Date.  Such cash payment shall equal the fair market value of the maximum number of PSUs that can be earned based on actual performance for any fiscal year in the Performance Period that has ended and target performance for the rest of the Performance Period.  For this purpose, fair market value of a PSU shall equal the per-share closing price of Textron’s Common Stock (or the successor thereto) on the last business day of the last calendar month that ends before the Six-Month Pay Date; provided, however, that if it is not feasible to calculate the closing price as of the last business day of such month, the amount of cash shall be determined based on the last price available.

Note: Sale of a business unit usually does not constitute a Change of Control as defined in the Plan.

Change of Control.  If a Change of Control occurs, a successor to Textron shall either assume Textron’s obligations with respect to the PSUs or replace this PSU award with a cash or equity-based award that materially preserves the PSU award’s value and incentive opportunity, and has vesting and payment schedules (including acceleration events) that are no less favorable to the executive than the schedules in effect immediately before the Change of Control.  If this PSU award is not assumed or replaced in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the PSUs shall be fully vested, non-forfeitable, and payable at the level prescribed by Section 3(d), above (i.e., based on actual performance for any fiscal year that has ended and actual performance for the rest of the Performance Period), based on the Share value as of the Change of Control; provided that payment shall not be accelerated if accelerating payment would violate a requirement of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.

Corporate Changes.  The number of PSUs awarded to the executive hereunder shall be equitably adjusted at the sole discretion of the Committee in the event of a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation, reclassification, merger, consolidation, separation, extraordinary cash dividend, split-up, spin-off, combination, exchange of Shares, warrants, or rights offering to purchase Shares, or any other corporate event or distribution of stock or property of the Company affecting the Common Stock, in order to preserve the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available to the executive.

No Right to Employment.  Nothing in these Terms and Conditions shall confer upon the executive the right to continue in the employment of Textron or any Subsidiary or affect any right that Textron or any Subsidiary may have to terminate the employment of the executive.

Non-Assignability of PSUs.  The PSUs shall not be assignable or transferable by the executive, except to the extent expressly permitted by the Plan.  Tax withholding with respect to any PSU that is

Performance Share Unit
Terms and Conditions

Page 2

transferred or assigned shall be determined by Textron in accordance with applicable law (which may require the executive to pay taxes with respect to a transferred PSU).

Voting and Dividends.  The executive shall not have voting rights or the right to any dividends with respect to the PSUs.

Clawback. The PSUs shall be subject to the clawback provision set forth in the Plan and/or any other clawback procedure of Textron, as in effect and as amended from time to time.

Administration. In accordance with the Plan, the Committee may, from time to time, delegate some or all of its authority under the Plan to a subcommittee or to one or more officers or employees of Textron.

Withholding Taxes. All payments with respect to PSUs shall be subject to tax withholding.  Textron shall have the right to withhold from any payment an amount that Textron determines is necessary to satisfy any Federal, state and local withholding tax requirements.

Section 409A.  The terms and conditions of the PSUs shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with the intent to be exempt from or comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.  For example, the phrase “as soon as practicable” and similar phrases with respect to payment dates shall be interpreted and administered consistent with the intent that, subject to the executive (or Beneficiary) providing all required information, payment shall not be delayed beyond the latest date permitted by Section 409A.  For purposes of Section 409A, each installment in any series of installment payments shall be treated as a separate payment.

PSUs Subject to Plan.  The PSUs shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan in all respects.  In the case of PSUs awarded under a long-term incentive plan other than the Textron Inc. 2015 Long-Term Incentive Plan, the term “Plan” as used in these Terms and Conditions shall refer to the plan under which the PSUs were awarded.  Each term that is used but not defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan.

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

Note 1.  Basis of Presentation

Our Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Textron Inc. (Textron) and its majority-owned subsidiaries.  We have prepared these unaudited consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. for interim financial information.  Accordingly, these interim financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. for complete financial statements.  The consolidated interim financial statements included in this quarterly report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 2, 2016.  In the opinion of management, the interim financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that are necessary for the fair presentation of our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented.  The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Our financings are conducted through two separate borrowing groups.  The Manufacturing group consists of Textron consolidated with its majority-owned subsidiaries that operate in the Textron Aviation, Bell, Textron Systems and Industrial segments. The Finance group, which also is the Finance segment, consists of Textron Financial Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries. We designed this framework to enhance our borrowing power by separating the Finance group. Our Manufacturing group operations include the development, production and delivery of tangible goods and services, while our Finance group provides financial services. Due to the fundamental differences between each borrowing group’s activities, investors, rating agencies and analysts use different measures to evaluate each group’s performance.  To support those evaluations, we present balance sheet and cash flow information for each borrowing group within the Consolidated Financial Statements.  All significant intercompany transactions are eliminated from the Consolidated Financial Statements, including retail financing activities for inventory sold by our Manufacturing group and financed by our Finance group.

Use of Estimates

We prepare our financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  Our estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the effects of changes, if any, are reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Operations in the period that they are determined.

During 2016 and 2015, we changed our estimates of revenues and costs on certain long-term contracts that are accounted for under the percentage-of-completion method of accounting.  These changes in estimates increased income from continuing operations before income taxes in the first quarter of 2016 and 2015 by $29 million and $18 million, respectively, ($19 million and $11 million after tax, or $0.07 and $0.04 per diluted share, respectively).  For the first quarter of 2016 and 2015, the gross favorable program profit adjustments totaled $34 million and $33 million, respectively, and the gross unfavorable program profit adjustments totaled $5 million and $15 million, respectively.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, Leases, that requires all leases with a term greater than 12 months be recognized on the balance sheet, while lease expenses would continue to be recognized in the statement of operations in a manner similar to current accounting guidance.  The new standard is effective for our company at the beginning of fiscal 2019 and early adoption is permitted.  Entities must adopt the standard on a modified retrospective basis whereby it would be applied at the beginning of the earliest comparative year.  We are currently evaluating the impact of adoption on our consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, that outlines a comprehensive five-step revenue recognition model based on the principle that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. In July 2015, the FASB approved a one-year deferral of the effective date of the standard to the beginning of 2018 for public companies, with an option that would permit companies to adopt the standard as early as the original effective date of 2017.  The new standard may be adopted either retrospectively or on a modified retrospective basis whereby it would be applied to new contracts and existing contracts with remaining performance obligations as of the effective date, with a cumulative catch-up adjustment recorded to beginning retained earnings at the effective date for those contracts.  We are currently evaluating the impacts of adoption on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and related disclosures, along with the implementation approach to be used.

Business Acquisitions

Note 2.  Business Acquisitions

In the first quarter of 2016, we paid $164 million in cash and assumed debt of $19 million to acquire four businesses, net of cash acquired and holdbacks.  Our acquisition of Able Engineering and Component Services, Inc. and Able Aerospace, Inc. (Able) represented the largest of these businesses and is included in the Textron Aviation segment.  Able is an industry-leading repair and overhaul business that provides component repairs, component exchanges and replacement parts, among other support and service offerings for commercial rotorcraft and fixed-wing aircraft customers around the world.  We are in the process of allocating the purchase price and valuing the acquired assets and liabilities for these acquisitions.  Based on the preliminary allocation of the aggregate purchase price for these acquisitions, $87 million has been allocated to goodwill, related to expected synergies and the value of the existing workforce, and $59 million to intangible assets.  Of the recorded goodwill, approximately $33 million is deductible for tax purposes.  The intangible assets are primarily related to customer relationships and technologies, which will be amortized over 10 to 18 years.  The operating results of these acquisitions have been included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations since their respective closing dates.

Stock Options Options to purchase our shares have a maximum term of ten years and generally vest ratably over a three-year period. The stock option compensation cost calculated under the fair value approach is recognized over the vesting period of the stock options.  We estimate the fair value of options granted on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.  Expected volatilities are based on implied volatilities from traded options on our common stock, historical volatilities and other factors.  The expected term is based on historical option exercise data, which is adjusted to reflect any anticipated changes in expected behavior. The weighted-average fair value of options granted and the assumptions used in our option-pricing model for such grants are as follows:

Earnings Per Share

Earnings Per Share

Note 5.  Earnings Per Share

We calculate basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) based on net income, which approximates income available to common shareholders for each period.  Basic EPS is calculated using the two-class method, which includes the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period and restricted stock units to be paid in stock that are deemed participating securities as they provide nonforfeitable rights to dividends. Diluted EPS considers the dilutive effect of all potential future common stock, including stock options.

The weighted-average shares outstanding for basic and diluted EPS are as follows:

	Three Months Ended
(In thousands)	April 2, 2016	April 4, 2015
Basic weighted-average shares outstanding	271,660	277,902
Dilutive effect of stock options	1,362	2,175
Diluted weighted-average shares outstanding	273,022	280,077
Stock options to purchase 4 million and 1 million shares of common stock outstanding are excluded from the calculation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the first quarter of 2016 and 2015, respectively, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

Credit Quality Indicators and Nonaccrual Finance Receivables

We internally assess the quality of our finance receivables based on a number of key credit quality indicators and statistics such as delinquency, loan balance to estimated collateral value and the financial strength of individual borrowers and guarantors.  Because many of these indicators are difficult to apply across an entire class of receivables, we evaluate individual loans on a quarterly basis and classify these loans into three categories based on the key credit quality indicators for the individual loan.  These three categories are performing, watchlist and nonaccrual.

We classify finance receivables as nonaccrual if credit quality indicators suggest full collection of principal and interest is doubtful, we automatically classify accounts as nonaccrual once they are contractually delinquent by more than three months unless collection of principal and interest is not doubtful.  Accrual of interest income is suspended for these accounts and all cash collections are generally applied to reduce the net investment balance.  Once we conclude that the collection of all principal and interest is no longer doubtful, we resume the accrual of interest and recognize previously suspended interest income at the time either a) the loan becomes contractually current through payment according to the original terms of the loan, or b) if the loan has been modified, following a period of performance under the terms of the modification. Accounts are classified as watchlist when credit quality indicators have deteriorated as compared with typical underwriting criteria, and we believe collection of full principal and interest is probable but not certain.  All other finance receivables that do not meet the watchlist or nonaccrual categories are classified as performing.

Delinquency

We measure delinquency based on the contractual payment terms of our finance receivables. In determining the delinquency aging category of an account, any/all principal and interest received is applied to the most past-due principal and/or interest amounts due.  If a significant portion of the contractually due payment is delinquent, the entire finance receivable balance is reported in accordance with the most past-due delinquency aging category.

Finance receivables categorized based on the credit quality indicators and by the delinquency aging category are summarized as follows:

(In millions)	April 2, 2016		January 2, 2016
Performing	$	866	$	891
Watchlist	139		130
Nonaccrual	79		84

61-90 days past due	69		42
Over 90 days past due	25		27
60 + days contractual delinquency as a percentage of finance receivables	8.67%		6.24%

Impaired Loans

On a quarterly basis, we evaluate individual finance receivables for impairment in non-homogeneous portfolios and larger balance accounts in homogeneous loan portfolios. A finance receivable is considered impaired when it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement based on our review of the credit quality indicators described above. Impaired finance receivables include both nonaccrual accounts and accounts for which full collection of principal and interest remains probable, but the account’s original terms have been, or are expected to be, significantly modified. If the modification specifies an interest rate equal to or greater than a market rate for a finance receivable with comparable risk, the account is not considered impaired in years subsequent to the modification. Interest income recognized on impaired loans was not significant in the first quarter of 2016 or 2015.

Allowance for Losses

We maintain an allowance for losses on finance receivables at a level considered adequate to cover inherent losses in the portfolio based on management’s evaluation.  For larger balance accounts specifically identified as impaired, a reserve is established based on comparing the expected future cash flows, discounted at the finance receivable’s effective interest rate, or the fair value of the underlying collateral if the finance receivable is collateral dependent, to its carrying amount. The expected future cash flows consider collateral value; financial performance and liquidity of our borrower; existence and financial strength of guarantors; estimated recovery costs, including legal expenses; and costs associated with the repossession and eventual disposal of collateral.  When there is a range of potential outcomes, we perform multiple discounted cash flow analyses and weight the potential outcomes based on their relative likelihood of occurrence.  The evaluation of our portfolio is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates, including the amount and timing of future cash flows expected to be received on impaired finance receivables and the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, which may differ from actual results.  While our analysis is specific to each individual account, critical factors included in this analysis include industry valuation guides, age and physical condition of the collateral, payment history and existence and financial strength of guarantors.

We also establish an allowance for losses to cover probable but specifically unknown losses existing in the portfolio. This allowance is established as a percentage of non-recourse finance receivables, which have not been identified as requiring specific reserves. The percentage is based on a combination of factors, including historical loss experience, current delinquency and default trends, collateral values and both general economic and specific industry trends. Finance receivables are charged off at the earlier of the date the collateral is repossessed or when no payment has been received for six months, unless management deems the receivable collectible.

Derivative Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

Derivative Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

Derivative Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

Note 10.  Derivative Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

We measure fair value at the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.  We prioritize the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability into a three-tier fair value hierarchy.  This fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority (Level 1) to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority (Level 3) to unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exist, requiring companies to develop their own assumptions.  Observable inputs that do not meet the criteria of Level 1, which include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, are categorized as Level 2.  Level 3 inputs are those that reflect our estimates about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances.  Valuation techniques for assets and liabilities measured using Level 3 inputs may include methodologies such as the market approach, the income approach or the cost approach and may use unobservable inputs such as projections, estimates and management’s interpretation of current market data.  These unobservable inputs are utilized only to the extent that observable inputs are not available or cost effective to obtain.

Assets and Liabilities Recorded at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

We manufacture and sell our products in a number of countries throughout the world, and, therefore, we are exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates. We utilize foreign currency exchange contracts to manage this volatility.  Our foreign currency exchange contracts are measured at fair value using the market method valuation technique.  The inputs to this technique utilize current foreign currency exchange forward market rates published by third-party leading financial news and data providers.  These are observable data that represent the rates that the financial institution uses for contracts entered into at that date; however, they are not based on actual transactions so they are classified as Level 2.  At April 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016, we had foreign currency exchange contracts with notional amounts upon which the contracts were based of $776 million and $706 million, respectively.  At April 2, 2016, the fair value amounts of our foreign currency exchange contracts were not significant.  At January 2, 2016, the fair value amounts of our foreign currency exchange contracts were a $7 million asset and a $28 million liability.

We primarily utilize forward exchange contracts which have maturities of no more than three years.  These contracts qualify as cash flow hedges and are intended to offset the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on forecasted sales, inventory purchases and overhead expenses.  At April 2, 2016, we had a net deferred loss of $3 million in Accumulated other comprehensive loss related to these cash flow hedges.  Net gains and losses recognized in earnings and Accumulated other comprehensive loss on cash flow hedges, including gains and losses related to hedge ineffectiveness, were not significant in the periods presented.

We hedge our net investment position in major currencies and generate foreign currency interest payments that offset other transactional exposures in these currencies. To accomplish this, we borrow directly in foreign currency and designate a portion of foreign currency debt as a hedge of a net investment. We record changes in the fair value of these contracts in other comprehensive income to the extent they are effective as cash flow hedges.  Currency effects on the effective portion of these hedges, which are reflected in the foreign currency translation adjustments within Accumulated other comprehensive loss, were not significant in the periods presented.

Assets Recorded at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

During the periods ended April 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016, the Finance group’s impaired nonaccrual finance receivables of $39 million and $45 million, respectively, were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). Impaired nonaccrual finance receivables represent assets recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis since the measurement of required reserves on our impaired finance receivables is significantly dependent on the fair value of the underlying collateral.  For impaired nonaccrual finance receivables secured by aviation assets, the fair values of collateral are determined primarily based on the use of industry pricing guides. Fair value measurements recorded on impaired finance receivables were not significant for both the three months ended April 2, 2016 and April 4, 2015.

Assets and Liabilities Not Recorded at Fair Value

The carrying value and estimated fair value of our financial instruments that are not reflected in the financial statements at fair value are as follows:

	April 2, 2016				January 2, 2016
(In millions)	Carrying Value		Estimated Fair Value		Carrying Value		Estimated Fair Value
Manufacturing group
Long-term debt, excluding leases	$	(2,972)	$	(3,127)	$	(2,628)	$	(2,744)
Finance group
Finance receivables, excluding leases	860		834		863		820
Debt	(888)		(817)		(913)		(840)

Fair value for the Manufacturing group debt is determined using market observable data for similar transactions (Level 2).  At both April 2, 2016 and January 2, 2016, approximately 75% of the fair value of term debt for the Finance group was determined based on discounted cash flow analyses using observable market inputs from debt with similar duration, subordination and credit default expectations (Level 2). Fair value estimates for finance receivables were determined based on internally developed discounted cash flow models primarily utilizing significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), which include estimates of the rate of return, financing cost, capital structure and/or discount rate expectations of current market participants combined with estimated loan cash flows based on credit losses, payment rates and expectations of borrowers’ ability to make payments on a timely basis.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

We prepare our financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  Our estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the effects of changes, if any, are reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Operations in the period that they are determined.

During 2016 and 2015, we changed our estimates of revenues and costs on certain long-term contracts that are accounted for under the percentage-of-completion method of accounting.  These changes in estimates increased income from continuing operations before income taxes in the first quarter of 2016 and 2015 by $29 million and $18 million, respectively, ($19 million and $11 million after tax, or $0.07 and $0.04 per diluted share, respectively).  For the first quarter of 2016 and 2015, the gross favorable program profit adjustments totaled $34 million and $33 million, respectively, and the gross unfavorable program profit adjustments totaled $5 million and $15 million, respectively.

New Accounting Pronouncements

New Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, Leases, that requires all leases with a term greater than 12 months be recognized on the balance sheet, while lease expenses would continue to be recognized in the statement of operations in a manner similar to current accounting guidance.  The new standard is effective for our company at the beginning of fiscal 2019 and early adoption is permitted.  Entities must adopt the standard on a modified retrospective basis whereby it would be applied at the beginning of the earliest comparative year.  We are currently evaluating the impact of adoption on our consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, that outlines a comprehensive five-step revenue recognition model based on the principle that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. In July 2015, the FASB approved a one-year deferral of the effective date of the standard to the beginning of 2018 for public companies, with an option that would permit companies to adopt the standard as early as the original effective date of 2017.  The new standard may be adopted either retrospectively or on a modified retrospective basis whereby it would be applied to new contracts and existing contracts with remaining performance obligations as of the effective date, with a cumulative catch-up adjustment recorded to beginning retained earnings at the effective date for those contracts.  We are currently evaluating the impacts of adoption on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and related disclosures, along with the implementation approach to be used.
