DXC TECHNOLOGY COMPANY

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Business

DXC Technology Company (“DXC,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) helps global companies run their mission critical systems and operations while modernizing IT, optimizing data architectures, and ensuring security and scalability across public, private and hybrid clouds. With decades of driving innovation, the world’s largest companies trust DXC to deploy its enterprise technology stack to deliver new levels of performance, competitiveness and customer experiences.

HPS Sale

On April 1, 2021, DXC completed the sale of its healthcare provider software business (“HPS” or the “HPS Business”) to Dedalus Holding S.p.A. (“Dedalus”). The sale was accomplished by the cash purchase of all equity interests and assets attributable to the HPS Business for €468 million (approximately $551 million), subject to certain adjustments. See Note 4 – “Divestitures” for further information.

HHS Sale

On October 1, 2020, DXC completed the sale of its U.S. State and Local Health and Human Services business (“HHS” or the “HHS Business”) to an affiliate of Veritas Capital Fund Management, L.L.C. (“Veritas Capital”) to form Gainwell Technologies. The sale was accomplished by the cash purchase of all equity interests and assets attributable to the HHS Business together with future services to be provided by the Company for a total enterprise value of $5 billion, subject to net working capital adjustments and assumed liabilities. See Note 4 – “Divestitures” for further information.

FDB Sale

During the third quarter of fiscal 2022, a subsidiary of DXC entered into a purchase agreement to sell (the "FDB Sale") its German financial services subsidiary ("FDB" or the "FDB Business") to the FNZ Group ("FNZ") for €300 million (approximately $340 million), subject to certain adjustments. The closing of the transaction is subject to certain conditions, including receipt of certain regulatory consents. At December 31, 2021, FDB held approximately $670 million in cash which primarily related to customer deposit liabilities.

Basis of Presentation

In order to make this report easier to read, DXC refers throughout to (i) the interim unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as the “financial statements,” (ii) the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as the “statements of operations,” (iii) the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income as the “statements of comprehensive income,” (iv) the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as the “balance sheets,” and (v) the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as the “statements of cash flows.” In addition, references throughout to numbered “Notes” refer to the numbered Notes in these Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, unless otherwise noted.

The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of DXC, its consolidated subsidiaries, and those business entities in which DXC maintains a controlling interest. Investments in business entities in which the Company does not have control, but has the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies, are accounted for by the equity method. Other investments are accounted for by the cost method. Non-controlling interests are presented as a separate component within equity in the balance sheets. Net earnings attributable to the non-controlling interests are presented separately in the statements of operations, and comprehensive income attributable to non-controlling interests is presented separately in the statements of comprehensive income. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Certain amounts reported in the previous year have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

DXC TECHNOLOGY COMPANY

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for quarterly reports and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). Certain disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules. These financial statements should therefore be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021 (“fiscal 2021”).

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements, in accordance with GAAP, requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expense during the reporting period. The Company bases its estimates on assumptions regarding historical experience, currently available information, and anticipated developments that it believes are reasonable and appropriate. However, because the use of estimates involves an inherent degree of uncertainty, actual results could differ from those estimates. The severity, magnitude and duration, as well as the economic consequences of the ongoing coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) crisis, are uncertain, rapidly changing and difficult to predict. Therefore, accounting estimates and assumptions may change over time in response to the COVID-19 crisis and may change materially in future periods. Estimates are used for, but are not limited to, contracts accounted for using the percentage-of-completion method, cash flows used in the evaluation of impairment of goodwill and other long-lived assets, reserves for uncertain tax positions, valuation allowances on deferred tax assets, loss accruals for litigation, and obligations related to our pension plans. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying financial statements contain all adjustments necessary, including those of a normal recurring nature, to fairly present the financial statements. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.

Note 2 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

During the nine months ended December 31, 2021, DXC adopted the following Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board:


Date Issued and ASU	Date Adopted and Method	Description	Impact
December 2019 ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”	April 1, 2021 Multiple Methods	This update is intended to simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. The transition method (retrospective, modified retrospective, or prospective basis) related to the amendments depends on the applicable guidance, and all amendments for which there is no transition guidance specified are applied on a prospective basis.	The Company determined that this standard had no material impact to its condensed consolidated financial statements following adoption.
July 2021 ASU 2021-05, “Leases (Topic 842): Lessors–Certain Leases with Variable Lease Payments”	Second quarter of fiscal 2022 Prospective	The amendments in this update modify lease classification requirements for lessors, providing that lease contracts with variable lease payments that do not depend on a reference index or a rate should be classified as operating leases if they would have been classified as a sales-type or direct financing lease and resulted in the recognition of a selling loss at lease commencement.	Upon adoption, on a prospective basis, customer leases with variable payments that would have resulted in an upfront loss when meeting sales type lease classification are classified as operating leases upon commencement or modification. Associated revenues, cost of services, or depreciation are subsequently recognized over their related lease terms or useful life. Before adopting this standard, leases with similar variable payments were classified as sales-type leases. These similar leases resulted in the recognition of upfront losses upon commencement or modification prior to the adoption, even when the overall economics of the lease arrangements were expected to be profitable.

Other recently issued ASUs that have not yet been adopted are not expected to have a material effect on DXC’s consolidated financial statements.

HPS Sale

On April 1, 2021, DXC completed the sale of its HPS Business to Dedalus for €468 million (approximately $551 million), which includes €10 million (approximately $12 million) related to future services to be provided by the Company. The sale proceeds were used to repay the remainder of two series of 4.45% senior notes due fiscal 2023 for $154 million and $165 million. The HPS Sale resulted in a pre-tax gain on sale of $337 million, net of closing costs.

HHS Sale

On October 1, 2020, DXC completed the sale of its HHS Business to Veritas Capital. The sale was accomplished by the cash purchase of all equity interests and assets attributable to the HHS Business for a total enterprise value of $5.0 billion (including $85 million related to future services to be provided by the Company). As part of the sale of the HHS business, $272 million of repurchased receivables, previously sold under the Milano Receivables Facility (“Milano Facility”) (see Note 6 – “Receivables” to the financial statements), $12 million of prepaid maintenance, and $48 million of software licenses were transferred to the HHS Business. DXC made payment for these assets during the third quarter of fiscal 2021. The repurchase of receivables and payment on prepaid maintenance are reported as operating cash outflows, and the payment for software license is considered an investing cash outflow. The HHS Sale resulted in a pre-tax gain on sale of $2,014 million, net of closing costs. The sale price is subject to adjustment based on changes in actual closing net working capital. Final potential working capital adjustments are pending. Approximately $3.5 billion of the sale proceeds were used to prepay debt.

DXC’s post-divestiture relationship with the HHS Business is governed by the Purchase Agreement, which provides for the allocation of assets, employees, liabilities and obligations (including property, employee benefits, litigation, and tax-related assets and liabilities) between DXC and the HHS Business attributable to periods prior to, at and after the divestment. In addition, DXC and the HHS Business have service and commercial contracts that generally extend through fiscal 2023.

The divestment of the HHS Business, reported as part of the GBS segment, did not meet the requirements for presentation as discontinued operations as it did not represent a strategic shift that would have a major effect on DXC’s operations and financial results and was included in income prior to its divestment.

Note 5 – Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS reflects the incremental shares issuable upon the assumed exercise of stock options and equity awards. The following table reflects the calculation of basic and diluted EPS:


	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended

Receivables Facility

The Company has an accounts receivable sales facility (as amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified as of December 31, 2021, the “Receivables Facility”) with certain unaffiliated financial institutions (the “Purchasers”) for the sale of commercial accounts receivable in the United States. The Receivables Facility has a facility limit of $400 million as of December 31, 2021. Under the Receivables Facility, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries (the “Sellers”) sell accounts receivable to DXC Receivables LLC (“Receivables SPV”), a wholly owned bankruptcy-remote entity, in a true sale. Receivables SPV subsequently sells certain of the receivables in their entirety to the Purchasers pursuant to a receivables purchase agreement. The financial obligations of Receivables SPV to the Purchasers under the Receivables Facility are limited to the assets it owns and non-recourse to the Company. Sales of receivables by Receivables SPV occur continuously and are settled monthly.

The amount available under the Receivables Facility fluctuates over time based on the total amount of eligible receivables generated during the normal course of business after deducting excess concentrations. As of December 31, 2021, the total availability under the Receivables Facility was $400 million, and the amount sold to the Purchasers was $400 million, which was derecognized from the Company’s balance sheet. The Receivables Facility is scheduled to terminate on July 29, 2022, but provides for one or more optional one-year extensions, if agreed to by the Purchasers. The Company uses the proceeds from Receivables SPV’s sale of receivables under the Receivables Facility for general corporate purposes.

The fair value of the sold receivables approximated book value due to the short-term nature, and as a result, no gain or loss on sale of receivables was recorded.

While the Company guarantees certain non-financial performance obligations of the Sellers, the Purchasers bear customer credit risk associated with the receivables sold under the Receivables Facility and have recourse in the event of credit-related customer non-payment solely to the assets of the Receivables SPV.

Milano Receivables Facility

On October 1, 2020, in connection with the consummation of the sale of the HHS Business, and at the direction of the purchaser of the HHS Business, the Milano Facility was terminated. For more information, refer to Note 4 – “Divestitures.”

German Receivables Facility

On October 1, 2019, the Company executed an accounts receivable securitization facility (the “DE Receivables Facility”) with certain unaffiliated financial institutions (the “DE Purchasers”) for the sale of commercial accounts receivable in Germany. On June 30, 2021, the Company terminated the agreement governing the DE Receivables Facility. In connection with the termination of the DE Receivables Facility, the Company repaid all outstanding obligations and fees thereunder.

Under the DE Receivables Facility, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries organized in Germany (the “DE Sellers”) sold accounts receivable to DXC ARFacility Designated Activity Company (“DE Receivables SPV”), a trust-owned bankruptcy-remote entity, in a true sale. DE Receivables SPV subsequently sold certain of the receivables in their entirety to the DE Purchasers pursuant to a receivables purchase agreement. Sales of receivables by DE Receivables SPV occurred continuously and were settled monthly. During the first quarter of fiscal 2021, DE Receivables SPV amended the DE Receivables Facility. Under the terms of the DE Receivables Facility, there was no longer any deferred purchase price (“DPP”) for receivables as the entire purchase price is paid in cash when the receivables are sold to the DE Purchasers. Prior to the Amendment, DPPs were realized by DE Receivables SPV upon the ultimate collection of the underlying receivables sold to the DE Purchasers. Cash receipts on the DPPs were classified as cash flows from investing activities. The DPP balance was $102 million before the Amendment was executed. Upon execution of the Amendment, the Purchasers extinguished the DPP balance and returned title to the applicable underlying receivables to DE Receivables SPV. The DPP extinguishment was classified as a non-cash investing activity. See Note 19 – “Cash Flows” for additional information.

The fair value of money market funds, money market deposit accounts, U.S. Treasury bills with less than three months maturity and time deposits, included in cash and cash equivalents, are based on quoted market prices. The fair value of other debt securities, included in other long-term assets, is based on actual market prices. The fair value of contingent consideration, included in other liabilities, is based on contractually defined targets of financial performance in connection with earn outs and other considerations.

Other Fair Value Disclosures

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments with short-term maturities, primarily accounts receivable, accounts payable, short-term debt, and financial liabilities included in other accrued liabilities, are deemed to approximate their market values due to their short-term nature. If measured at fair value, these financial instruments would be classified as Level 2 or Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.

The Company estimates the fair value of its long-term debt, primarily by using quoted prices obtained from third-party providers such as Bloomberg, and by using an expected present value technique that is based on observable market inputs for instruments with similar terms currently available to the Company. The estimated fair value of the Company’s long-term debt, excluding finance lease liabilities, was $4.0 billion and $4.7 billion as of December 31, 2021 and March 31, 2021, respectively, compared with carrying value of $4.0 billion and $4.4 billion as of December 31, 2021 and March 31, 2021, respectively. Long-term debt, excluding finance lease liabilities, is classified as Level 1 or Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

Non-financial assets such as goodwill, tangible assets, intangible assets, and other contract related long-lived assets are recorded at fair value in the period they are initially recognized, and such fair value may be adjusted in subsequent periods if an event occurs or circumstances change that indicate that the asset may be impaired. The fair value measurements in such instances would be classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. There were no significant impairments recorded during the nine months ended December 31, 2021.

Note 9 – Derivative Instruments

In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to interest rate and foreign exchange rate fluctuations. As part of its risk management strategy, the Company uses derivative instruments, primarily foreign currency forward contracts and interest rate swaps, to hedge certain foreign currency and interest rate exposures. The Company’s objective is to reduce earnings volatility by offsetting gains and losses resulting from these exposures with losses and gains on the derivative contracts used to hedge them. The Company does not use derivative instruments for trading or any speculative purposes.

Derivatives Designated for Hedge Accounting

Cash flow hedges

The Company has designated certain foreign currency forward contracts as cash flow hedges to reduce foreign currency risk related to certain Indian Rupee-denominated intercompany obligations and forecasted transactions. The notional amounts of foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges as of December 31, 2021 and March 31, 2021 were $740 million and $546 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2021, the related forecasted transactions extend through March 2024.

For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, the Company performed an assessment at the inception of the cash flow hedge transactions and determined that all critical terms of the hedging instruments and hedged items matched. The Company performs an assessment of critical terms on an on-going basis throughout the hedging period. During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, the Company had no cash flow hedges for which it was probable that the hedged transaction would not occur. As of December 31, 2021, $12 million of the existing amount of gain related to the cash flow hedge reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss, is expected to be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months.

Amounts recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) and income

During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2021, the pre-tax gain on derivatives designated for hedge accounting recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) was $5 million and $15 million, respectively, and the gain from operations was $2 million and $3 million, respectively.

Derivatives Not Designated for Hedge Accounting

The derivative instruments not designated as hedges for purposes of hedge accounting include certain short-term foreign currency forward contracts. Derivatives that are not designated as hedging instruments are adjusted to fair value through earnings in the financial statement line item to which the derivative relates.

Foreign currency forward contracts

The Company manages the exposure to fluctuations in foreign currencies by using short-term foreign currency forward contracts to hedge certain foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities, including intercompany accounts and forecasted transactions. The net notional amounts of the foreign currency forward contracts outstanding as of December 31, 2021 and March 31, 2021 were $1.5 billion and $2.1 billion, respectively.

The following table presents the pre-tax amounts impacting income related to designated and non-designated foreign currency forward contracts:

Fair Value of Derivative Instruments

All derivative instruments are recorded at fair value. The Company’s accounting treatment for these derivative instruments is based on its hedge designation. The following tables present the fair values of derivative instruments included in the balance sheets:


	Derivative Assets
		As of
(in millions)	Balance Sheet Line Item	December 31, 2021		March 31, 2021
Derivatives designated for hedge accounting:

Foreign currency forward contracts	Other current assets	$	17	$	9


Derivatives not designated for hedge accounting:
Foreign currency forward contracts	Other current assets	$	10	$	3


	Derivative Liabilities
		As of
(in millions)		Balance Sheet Line Item	December 31, 2021		March 31, 2021
Derivatives designated for hedge accounting:

Foreign currency forward contracts		Accrued expenses and other current liabilities	$	1	$	5


Derivatives not designated for hedge accounting:
Foreign currency forward contracts		Accrued expenses and other current liabilities	$	5	$	3

The fair value of foreign currency forward contracts represents the estimated amount required to settle the contracts using current market exchange rates and is based on the period-end foreign currency exchange rates and forward points which are classified as Level 2 inputs.

Other Risks for Derivative Instruments

The Company is exposed to the risk of losses in the event of non-performance by the counterparties to its derivative contracts. The amount subject to credit risk related to derivative instruments is generally limited to the amount, if any, by which a counterparty’s obligations exceed the obligations of the Company with that counterparty. To mitigate counterparty credit risk, the Company regularly reviews its credit exposure and the creditworthiness of the counterparties. With respect to its foreign currency derivatives, as of December 31, 2021, there were nine counterparties with concentration of credit risk, and based on gross fair value, the maximum amount of loss that the Company could incur is $19 million.

The Company also enters into enforceable master netting arrangements with some of its counterparties. However, for financial reporting purposes, it is the Company’s policy not to offset derivative assets and liabilities despite the existence of enforceable master netting arrangements. The potential effect of such netting arrangements on the Company’s balance sheets is not material for the periods presented.

Non-Derivative Financial Instruments Designated for Hedge Accounting

The Company applies hedge accounting for foreign currency-denominated debt used to manage foreign currency exposures on its net investments in certain non-U.S. operations. To qualify for hedge accounting, the hedging instrument must be highly effective at reducing the risk from the exposure being hedged.

Net Investment Hedges

DXC seeks to reduce the impact of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates on its net investments in certain non-U.S. operations with foreign currency-denominated debt. For foreign currency-denominated debt designated as a hedge, the effectiveness of the hedge is assessed based on changes in spot rates. For qualifying net investment hedges, all gains or losses on the hedging instruments are included in currency translation. Gains or losses on individual net investments in non-U.S. operations are reclassified to earnings from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) when such net investments are sold or substantially liquidated.

As of December 31, 2021, DXC had $0.3 billion of foreign currency-denominated debt designated as hedges of net investments in non-U.S. subsidiaries. For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2021, the pre-tax impact of gain (loss) on foreign currency-denominated debt designated for hedge accounting recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) was $5 million and $11 million. As of March 31, 2021, DXC had $0.8 billion of foreign currency-denominated debt designated as hedges of net investments in non-U.S. subsidiaries.

Goodwill Impairment Analyses

The Company tests goodwill for impairment on an annual basis, as of the first day of the second fiscal quarter, and between annual tests if circumstances change, or if an event occurs that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount.

The Company concluded that, as a result of its qualitative assessment performed on July 1, 2021, it remained more likely than not that the fair value of the GBS reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount.

As of December 31, 2021, the Company assessed whether there were events or changes in circumstances that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of any of its reporting units below its carrying amount and require goodwill to be tested for impairment. The Company determined that there have been no such indicators and therefore, it was unnecessary to perform an interim goodwill impairment test as of December 31, 2021.

Senior Notes and Term Loans

During the first quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company used the proceeds from the sale of its HPS business to complete the redemption of the remaining $319 million of the two series of 4.45% senior notes due fiscal 2023. The Company also repurchased $33 million of its 4.125% senior notes due fiscal 2026 using the proceeds from the divestitures of other insignificant businesses and existing cash on hand and the remainder of these notes were subsequently redeemed in full.

Remaining Performance Obligations

Remaining performance obligations represent the aggregate amount of the transaction price in contracts allocated to performance obligations not delivered, or partially undelivered, as of the end of the reporting period. Remaining performance obligation estimates are subject to change and are affected by several factors, including terminations, changes in the scope of contracts, periodic revalidations, adjustments for revenue that have not materialized and adjustments for currency. As of December 31, 2021, approximately $22 billion of revenue is expected to be recognized from remaining performance obligations. We expect to recognize revenue on approximately 14% of these remaining performance obligations in fiscal 2022, with the remainder of the balance recognized thereafter.

Summary of Restructuring Plans

Fiscal 2022 Plan

During fiscal 2022, management approved global cost savings initiatives designed to better align the Company’s workforce and facility structures (the “Fiscal 2022 Plan”). Also included in restructuring costs for the nine months ended December 31, 2021 is $12 million related to amortization of right-of-use assets and interest expense for leased facilities that we have vacated but that are being actively marketed for sublease, or we are in negotiations with the landlord to potentially terminate or modify those leases.

Fiscal 2021 Plan

During fiscal 2021, management approved global cost savings initiatives designed to better align the Company’s workforce and facility structures (the “Fiscal 2021 Plan”). The Fiscal 2021 Plan includes workforce optimization programs and facilities and data center rationalization. Costs incurred to date under the Fiscal 2021 Plan total $544 million, comprising $501 million in employee severance and $43 million of facilities costs.

Fiscal 2020 Plan

During fiscal 2020, management approved cost savings initiatives designed to reduce operating costs by re-balancing its workforce and facilities structures (the “Fiscal 2020 Plan”). The Fiscal 2020 Plan includes workforce optimization programs and facilities and data center rationalization. Costs incurred to date under the Fiscal 2020 Plan total $295 million, comprising $278 million in employee severance and $17 million of facilities costs.

Other Prior Year Plans

In June 2017, management approved a post-HPES Merger restructuring plan to optimize the Company’s operations in response to a continuing business contraction. Other prior year plans focus mainly on optimizing specific aspects of the global workforce, increasing the proportion of work performed in low-cost offshore locations and re-balancing the organizational structure. Additionally, these plans included global facility restructuring, including a global data center restructuring program. Costs incurred to date under other prior year plans total $1,478 million, comprising $1,140 million in employee severance and $338 million of facilities costs.

Acquired Restructuring Liabilities

As a result of the merger of Computer Sciences Corporation (“CSC”) and HPES (“HPES Merger”), DXC acquired restructuring liabilities under restructuring plans that were initiated for HPES under plans approved by the HPE Board of Directors.

Note 15 – Pension and Other Benefit Plans

The Company offers a number of pension and other post-retirement benefit (“OPEB”) plans, life insurance benefits, deferred compensation, and defined contribution plans. Most of the Company’s pension plans are not admitting new participants, except where locally required; therefore, changes to pension liabilities are primarily due to market fluctuations of investments for existing participants and changes in interest rates.

Defined Benefit Plans

The Company sponsors a number of defined benefit and post-retirement medical benefit plans for the benefit of eligible employees. The benefit obligations of the Company’s U.S. pension, U.S. OPEB, and non-U.S. OPEB represent an insignificant portion of the Company’s pension and other post-retirement benefits. As a result, the disclosures below include the Company’s U.S. and non-U.S. pension plans on a global consolidated basis.

Deferred Compensation Plans

Effective as of the HPES Merger, DXC assumed sponsorship of the Computer Sciences Corporation Deferred Compensation Plan, which was renamed the “DXC Technology Company Deferred Compensation Plan” (the “DXC DCP”) and adopted HPE’s Enterprise Services Executive Deferred Compensation Plan (the “ES DCP”). Both plans are non-qualified deferred compensation plans maintained for a select group of management, highly compensated employees and non-employee directors.

The DXC DCP covers eligible employees who participated in CSC’s Deferred Compensation Plan prior to the HPES Merger. The ES DCP covers eligible employees who participated in the HPE Executive Deferred Compensation Plan prior to the HPES Merger. Both plans allow participating employees to defer the receipt of current compensation to a future distribution date or event, above the amounts that may be deferred under DXC’s tax-qualified 401(k) plan and the DXC Technology Matched Asset Plan. Neither plan provides for employer contributions. Starting on April 3, 2017, the ES DCP no longer admits new participants.

Certain management and highly compensated employees are eligible to defer all, or a portion of, their regular salary that exceeds the limitation set forth in Internal Revenue Section 401(a)(17) and all or a portion of their incentive compensation. Non-employee directors are eligible to defer up to 100% of their cash compensation. The liability, which is included in other long-term liabilities in the Company’s balance sheets, amounted to $41 million as of December 31, 2021 and $42 million as of March 31, 2021.

Note 16 – Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate (“ETR”) was 38.6% and 44.2% for the three months ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, and 42.4% and 54.5% for the nine months ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. For the three months ended December 31, 2021, the primary drivers of the ETR were the global mix of income, an increase in unrecognized tax benefits primarily related to deductions taken in prior tax returns and tax rate changes in non-U.S. jurisdictions. For the nine months ended December 31, 2021, the primary drivers of the ETR were the global mix of income, gain on sale of HPS business, tax rate changes in non-U.S. jurisdictions and recording a valuation allowance on certain deferred tax assets in non-U.S. jurisdictions. For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2020, the primary drivers of the ETR were the gain on sale of HHS Business, global mix of income and foreign tax credits.

The majority of our global unremitted foreign earnings have been taxed in the U.S. or would be exempt from U.S. tax upon repatriation. Such earnings and all current foreign earnings are not indefinitely reinvested. The following foreign earnings are considered indefinitely reinvested: approximately $504 million that could be subject to U.S. federal tax when repatriated to the U.S. under section 1.245A-5(b) of the final Treasury regulations; and our accumulated earnings in India as of March 31, 2021. A portion of these indefinitely reinvested earnings may be subject to foreign and U.S. state tax consequences when remitted. The Company will continue to evaluate its position based on its strategic objectives and future cash needs.

In connection with the HPES Merger, the Company entered into a tax matters agreement with HPE. HPE generally will be responsible for tax liabilities arising prior to the HPES Merger, and DXC is liable to HPE for income tax receivables it receives related to pre-HPES Merger periods. Pursuant to the tax matters agreement, the Company recorded $34 million of tax indemnification receivable related to uncertain tax positions, $68 million of tax indemnification receivable related to other tax payables and $123 million of tax indemnification payable related to other tax receivables.

In connection with the spin-off of the Company’s former U.S. public sector business (the “USPS Separation”), the Company entered into a tax matters agreement with Peraton (formerly Perspecta Inc). The Company generally will be responsible for tax liabilities arising prior to the USPS Separation, and Peraton is liable to the Company for income tax receivables related to pre-spin-off periods. Income tax liabilities transferred to Peraton primarily relate to pre-HPES Merger periods, for which the Company is indemnified by HPE pursuant to the tax matters agreement between the Company and HPE. The Company remains liable to HPE for tax receivables transferred to Peraton related to pre-HPES Merger periods. Pursuant to the tax matters agreement, the Company has recorded a tax indemnification receivable from Peraton of $74 million related to other tax payables and a tax indemnification payable to Peraton of $29 million related to income tax and other tax receivables.

In connection with the sale of HPS business, the Company entered into a tax matters agreement with Dedalus. Pursuant to the tax matters agreement, the Company generally will be responsible for tax liabilities arising prior to the sale of HPS business.

The Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) has examined, or is examining, the Company’s federal income tax returns for fiscal 2008 through the tax year ended October 31, 2018. With respect to CSC’s fiscal 2008 through 2017 federal tax returns, the Company participated in settlement negotiations with the IRS Office of Appeals. The IRS examined several issues for these tax years that resulted in various audit adjustments. The Company and the IRS Office of Appeals have an agreement in principle as to various audit adjustments, and we disagree with the IRS’ disallowance of certain losses and deductions resulting from restructuring costs and tax planning strategies in previous years. As we believe we will ultimately prevail on the technical merits of the disagreed items and are challenging them in the IRS Office of Appeals or Tax Court, these matters are not fully reserved and would result in a federal and state tax expense of $456 million (including estimated interest and penalties) for the unreserved portion of these items and related cash cost if we do not prevail. We have received notices of deficiency with respect to fiscal 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2013 and have timely filed petitions in Tax Court with respect to fiscal 2010, 2011 and 2013. We expect to file timely petitions in Tax Court for fiscal 2009 by the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. We do not expect the Tax Court matters to be resolved in the next 12 months.

The Company has agreed to extend the statute of limitations for fiscal years 2008 through 2010 to April 30, 2022, for fiscal years 2014 through fiscal 2017 to October 31, 2022, and for the tax year ended October 31, 2017 to September 30, 2022. The statute of limitations on assessments for fiscal years 2011 through 2013 has expired. However, as previously noted, fiscal years 2011 and 2013 are in Tax Court and consequently these years will remain open until the Tax Court proceedings have concluded.

The Company expects to reach resolution with regard to disagreed items for fiscal years 2009 through 2013 no earlier than fiscal 2025, and to reach resolution for fiscal years 2014 through 2017, within 12 months.

The Company may settle certain other tax examinations or have lapses in statutes of limitations for different amounts than the Company has accrued as uncertain tax positions. Consequently, the Company may need to accrue and ultimately pay additional amounts for tax positions that previously met a more-likely-than-not standard if such positions are not upheld or pay lower amounts than previously estimated and accrued. In the third quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company’s liability for uncertain tax positions increased by $19 million (excluding interest and penalties and related tax attributes) primarily related to deductions taken in prior tax years. The Company believes the outcomes that are reasonably possible within the next 12 months may result in a reduction in liability for uncertain tax positions of $46 million, excluding interest, penalties, and tax carry-forwards.

Note 17 – Stockholders’ Equity

Share Repurchases

On April 3, 2017, DXC announced the establishment of a share repurchase program approved by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) with an initial authorization of $2.0 billion for future repurchases of outstanding shares of DXC common stock. On November 8, 2018, DXC’s Board approved an incremental $2.0 billion share repurchase authorization. An expiration date has not been established for this repurchase plan. Share repurchases may be made from time to time through various means, including in open market purchases, 10b5-1 plans, privately-negotiated transactions, accelerated stock repurchases, block trades and other transactions, in compliance with Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act as well as, to the extent applicable, other federal and state securities laws and other legal requirements. The timing, volume, and nature of share repurchases pursuant to the share repurchase plan are at the discretion of management and may be suspended or discontinued at any time.

The shares repurchased are retired immediately and included in the category of authorized but unissued shares. The excess of purchase price over par value of the common shares is allocated between additional paid-in capital and retained earnings. There was no share repurchase activity during the nine months ended December 31, 2020. The details of shares repurchased during the nine months ended December 31, 2021 are shown below:

Note 18 – Stock Incentive Plans

Equity Plans

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors has broad authority to grant awards and otherwise administer the DXC Employee Equity Plan. The plan became effective March 30, 2017 and will continue in effect for a period of 10 years thereafter, unless terminated earlier by the Board. The Board has the authority to amend the plan in such respects as it deems desirable, subject to approval of DXC’s stockholders for material modifications.

Restricted stock units (“RSUs”) represent the right to receive one share of DXC common stock upon a future settlement date, subject to vesting and other terms and conditions of the award, plus any dividend equivalents accrued during the award period. In general, if the employee’s status as a full-time employee is terminated prior to the vesting of the RSU grant in full, then the RSU grant is automatically canceled on the termination date and any unvested shares and dividend equivalents are forfeited. Certain executives were awarded service-based “career share” RSUs for which the shares are settled on the 10th anniversary following the executive’s separation from service as a full-time employee, provided the executive complies with certain non-competition covenants during that period. The Company also grants Performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”), which generally vest over a period of three years. The number of PSUs that ultimately vest is dependent upon the Company’s achievement of certain specified financial performance criteria over a three-year period. If the specified performance criteria are met, awards are settled for shares of DXC common stock and dividend equivalents upon the filing with the SEC of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the last fiscal year of the performance period. PSU awards include the potential for 25% of the shares granted to be earned after the first and second fiscal years if certain of the Company’s performance targets are met early, subject to vesting based on the participant’s continued employment through the end of the three-year performance period.

Beginning in fiscal 2021, DXC issued awards that are considered to have a market condition. A Monte Carlo simulation model was used for the valuation of the grants. Settlement of shares for these PSU awards will be made at the end of the third fiscal year subject to certain compounded annual growth rates of the stock price and continued employment through the last day of the third fiscal year.

The terms of the DXC Director Equity Plan allow DXC to grant RSU awards to non-employee directors of DXC. Such RSU awards vest in full at the earlier of (i) the first anniversary of the grant date or (ii) the next annual meeting date, and are automatically redeemed for DXC common stock and dividend equivalents either at that time or, if an RSU deferral election form is submitted, upon the date or event elected by the director. Distributions made upon a director’s separation from the Board may occur in either a lump sum or in annual installments over periods of 5, 10, or 15 years, according to the director’s election. In addition, RSUs vest in full upon a change in control of DXC.

The DXC Share Purchase Plan allows DXC’s employees located in the United Kingdom to purchase shares of DXC’s common stock at the fair market value of such shares on the applicable purchase date. There were 7,437 and 21,619 shares purchased under this plan during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2021.

The Board has reserved for issuance shares of DXC common stock, par value $0.01 per share, under each of the plans as detailed below:

Reconciliation of Reportable Segment Profit to Consolidated Total

The Company’s management uses segment profit as the measure for assessing performance of its segments. Segment profit is defined as segment revenues less costs of services, segment selling, general and administrative, depreciation and amortization, and other income (excluding the movement in foreign currency exchange rates on DXC’s foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities and the related economic hedges). The Company does not allocate to its segments certain operating expenses managed at the corporate level. These unallocated costs include certain corporate function costs, stock-based compensation expense, pension and OPEB actuarial and settlement gains and losses, restructuring costs, transaction, separation and integration-related costs and amortization of acquired intangible assets.

Note 21 – Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments

The Company signed long-term purchase agreements with certain software, hardware, telecommunication, and other service providers to obtain favorable pricing and terms for services, and products that are necessary for the operations of business activities. Under the terms of these agreements, the Company is contractually committed to purchase specified minimums over periods ranging from one to five years. If the Company does not meet the specified minimums, the

Company would have an obligation to pay the service provider all, or a portion, of the shortfall. Minimum purchase commitments as of December 31, 2021 were as follows:


Fiscal year	Minimum Purchase Commitment
(in millions)
Remainder of 2022	$	285
2023	968
2024	477
2025	258
2026	259
Thereafter	15
Total	$	2,262

In the normal course of business, the Company may provide certain customers with financial performance guarantees, and at times performance letters of credit or surety bonds. In general, the Company would only be liable for the amounts of these guarantees in the event that non-performance by the Company permits termination of the related contract by the Company’s customers. The Company believes it is in compliance with its performance obligations under all service contracts for which there is a financial performance guarantee, and the ultimate liability, if any, incurred in connection with these guarantees will not have a material adverse effect on its consolidated results of operations or financial position.

The Company also uses stand-by letters of credit, in lieu of cash, to support various risk management insurance policies. These letters of credit represent a contingent liability and the Company would only be liable if it defaults on its payment obligations on these policies. The following table summarizes the expiration of the Company’s financial guarantees and stand-by letters of credit outstanding as of December 31, 2021:


(in millions)	Remainder of Fiscal 2022		Fiscal 2023		Fiscal 2024 and Thereafter		Total
Surety bonds	$	5	$	60	$	13	$	78

The Company generally indemnifies licensees of its proprietary software products against claims brought by third parties alleging infringement of their intellectual property rights, including rights in patents (with or without geographic limitations), copyrights, trademarks, and trade secrets. DXC’s indemnification of its licensees relates to costs arising from court awards, negotiated settlements, and the related legal and internal costs of those licensees. The Company maintains the right, at its own cost, to modify or replace software in order to eliminate any infringement. The Company has not incurred any significant costs related to licensee software indemnification.

Contingencies

Kemper Corporate Services, Inc. v. Computer Sciences Corporation: In October 2015, Kemper Corporate Services, Inc. (“Kemper”) filed a demand for arbitration against CSC with the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), alleging that CSC breached the terms of a 2009 Master Software License and Services Agreement and related Work Orders (the “Agreement”) by failing to complete a software translation and implementation plan by certain contractual deadlines. Kemper claimed breach of contract, seeking approximately $100 million in damages. CSC answered the demand for arbitration denying Kemper’s claims and asserting a counterclaim for unpaid invoices for services rendered by CSC.

A single arbitrator conducted an evidentiary hearing on the merits of the claims and counterclaims in April 2017. In October 2017, the arbitrator issued a partial final award, finding for Kemper on its breach of contract theory, awarding Kemper $84.2 million in compensatory damages plus prejudgment interest, denying Kemper’s claim for rescission as moot, and denying CSC’s counterclaim. Kemper moved to confirm the award in federal district court in Texas.

CSC moved to vacate the award, and in August 2018, the Magistrate Judge issued its Report and Recommendation denying CSC’s vacatur motion. In September 2018, the District Court summarily accepted the Report and Recommendation without further briefing and entered a Final Judgment in the case. The Company promptly filed a notice of appeal to the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. Following the submission of briefs, oral argument was held on September 5, 2019. On January 10, 2020, the Court of Appeals issued a decision denying the Company’s appeal. On January 24, 2020, the Company filed a Petition for Rehearing, seeking review by the entire en banc Court of Appeals. On February 14, 2020, the Court of Appeals denied the Company’s Petition.

The Company has been pursuing coverage for the full scope of the award, interest, and legal fees and expenses, under the Company’s applicable insurance policies. Certain carriers have accepted coverage while others have denied coverage. On February 21, 2020, the Company paid the balance of the judgment, which net of insurance recovery totalled $60 million. The Company has since recovered an additional $12.5 million from its insurance carriers. The Company continues to pursue recovery with its insurance carriers.

Forsyth, et al. v. HP Inc. and Hewlett Packard Enterprise: On August 18, 2016, this purported class and collective action was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, against HP and HPE alleging violations of the Federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act (“ADEA”), the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, California public policy and the California Business and Professions Code. Former business units of HPE now owned by the Company may be proportionately liable for any recovery by plaintiffs in this matter.

Plaintiffs seek to certify a nationwide class action under the ADEA comprised of all U.S. residents employed by defendants who had their employment terminated pursuant to a work force reduction (“WFR”) plan and who were 40 years of age or older at the time of termination. The class seeks to cover those impacted by WFRs on or after December 2014. Plaintiffs also seek to represent a Rule 23 class under California law comprised of all persons 40 years of age or older employed by defendants in the state of California and terminated pursuant to a WFR plan on or after August 18, 2012.

In January 2017, defendants filed a partial motion to dismiss and a motion to compel arbitration of claims by certain named and opt-in plaintiffs who had signed release agreements as part of their WFR packages. In September 2017, the Court denied the partial motion to dismiss without prejudice, but granted defendants’ motions to compel arbitration for those named and opt-in plaintiffs. The Court stayed the entire action pending arbitration for these individuals, and administratively closed the case.

A mediation was held in October 2018 with the 16 named and opt-in plaintiffs who were involved in the case at that time. A settlement was reached, which included seven plaintiffs who were employed by former business units of HPE that are now owned by the Company. In June 2019, a second mediation was held with 145 additional opt-in plaintiffs who were compelled to arbitration pursuant to their release agreements. In December 2019, a settlement was reached with 142 of the opt-in plaintiffs, 35 of whom were employed by former business units of HPE that are now owned by the Company, and for which the Company was liable.

In December 2020, plaintiffs filed a motion for preliminary certification of the collective action, which Defendants opposed. In April 2021, the court granted Plaintiffs’ motion for preliminary certification and lifted the previously imposed stay of the action. In November 2021, notice was sent to putative members of the ADEA collectives regarding participation in the case.

Former business units of the Company now owned by Peraton (formerly Perspecta) may be proportionately liable for any recovery by plaintiffs in this matter.

Oracle America, Inc., et al. v. Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company: On March 22, 2016, Oracle filed a complaint against HPE in the Northern District of California, alleging copyright infringement, interference with contract, intentional interference with prospective economic relations, and unfair competition. The litigation relates in part to former business units of HPE that are now owned by the Company. The Company may be required to indemnify HPE for a portion of any recovery by Oracle in the litigation related to these business units.

Oracle’s claims arise primarily out of HPE’s prior relationship with a third-party maintenance provider named Terix Computer Company, Inc. (“Terix”). Oracle claims that Terix infringed its copyrights while acting as HPE’s subcontractor for certain customers of HPE’s multivendor support business. Oracle claims that HPE is liable for vicarious and contributory infringement arising from the alleged actions of Terix and for direct infringement arising from HPE’s own alleged conduct.

On January 29, 2019, the court granted HPE’s motion for summary judgment and denied Oracle’s motion for summary judgment, resolving the matter in HPE’s favor. Oracle appealed the judgment to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. In August 2020, the court granted Oracle’s appeal in part. The case was then remanded to the District Court for further proceedings.

In January 2021, the District Court entered a scheduling order that provided for summary judgment briefing to be completed by May 2021 and a trial date in November 2021. In June 2021, the Court issued a decision denying HPE’s motion for summary judgment and granting Oracle’s motion for summary judgment on various HPE defenses. In November 2021, the court issued an order continuing the trial to May 2022.

In re DXC Technology Company Securities Litigation: On December 27, 2018, a purported class action lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia against the Company and two of its current officers. The lawsuit asserts claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and is premised on allegedly false and/or misleading statements, and alleged non-disclosure of material facts, regarding the Company’s business, operations, prospects and performance during the proposed class period of February 8, 2018 to November 6, 2018. The Company moved to dismiss the claims in their entirety, and on June 2, 2020, the court granted the Company’s motion, dismissing all claims and entering judgment in the Company’s favor. On July 1, 2020, the plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit. In September 2021, the Court of Appeals heard oral argument on the appeal. In December 2021, the Court of Appeals issued an order denying the plaintiffs’ appeal and affirming the District Court’s dismissal of the lawsuit.

In March 2019, three related shareholder derivative lawsuits were filed in the Eighth Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada, in and for Clark County, against one of the Company’s current officers and a former officer as well as members of the Company’s board of directors, asserting claims for breach of fiduciary duty, waste of corporate assets, and unjust enrichment. By agreement of the parties and order of the court, those lawsuits were consolidated on July 18, 2019, and stayed pending the outcome of the appeal of the Eastern District of Virginia matter. The appeal was denied in December 2021, and the parties subsequently filed a voluntary dismissal of this action without prejudice. This matter is now closed.

On August 20, 2019, a purported class action lawsuit was filed in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Santa Clara, against the Company, directors of the Company, and a former officer of the Company, among other defendants. On September 16, 2019, a substantially similar purported class action lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California against the Company, directors of the Company, and a former officer of the Company, among other defendants. On November 8, 2019, a third purported class action lawsuit was filed in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of San Mateo, against the Company, directors of the Company, and a former officer of the Company, among other defendants. The third lawsuit was voluntarily dismissed by the plaintiff and re-filed in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Santa Clara on November 26, 2019, and thereafter was consolidated with the earlier-filed action in the same court on December 10, 2019. The California lawsuits assert claims under Sections 11, 12 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and are premised on allegedly false and/or misleading statements, and alleged non-disclosure of material facts, regarding the Company’s prospects and expected performance. Plaintiff in the federal action filed an amended complaint on January 8, 2020. The putative class of plaintiffs in these cases includes all persons who acquired shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the offering documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the April 2017 transaction that formed DXC. On July 15, 2020, the Superior Court of California, County of Santa Clara, denied the Company’s motion to stay the state court case but extended the Company’s deadline to seek dismissal of the state action, until after a decision on the Company’s motion to dismiss the federal action. The Company moved to dismiss the state action, and the court continued the motion until after the outcome of the federal action. Following the dismissal of the federal action in December 2021, the court in the state action has entered an order permitting additional briefing on the matter.

On July 27, 2020, the United States District Court for the Northern District of California granted the Company’s motion to dismiss the federal action. The Court’s order permitted plaintiffs to amend and refile their complaint within 60 days, and on September 25, 2020, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint. On November 12, 2020, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint, and on April 30, 2021, the Court granted the Company’s motion to dismiss the amended complaint, while granting plaintiffs leave to again amend and refile their complaint within 30 days. On June 1, 2021, the plaintiffs filed a third amended complaint, which the Company moved to dismiss. A hearing on the Company’s motion was held in October 2021, and in December 2021, the Court granted the Company’s motion to dismiss, this time with prejudice. Plaintiffs’ did not file a notice of appeal prior to the deadline to do so. The federal action is now closed.

On October 2, 2019, a shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed in the Eighth Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada, in and for Clark County, asserting various claims, including for breach of fiduciary duty and unjust enrichment, and challenging certain sales of securities by officers under Rule 10b5-1 plans. The shareholder filed this action after making a demand on the board of directors, alleging breaches of fiduciary duty, corporate waste and disclosure violations, and demanding that the Board take certain actions to evaluate the allegations and respond. The Company’s board of directors analyzed the demand, and has determined to defer its decision on the demand pending developments in the securities and derivative lawsuits described above. The Company moved to dismiss the complaint on the basis that the Board’s decision to defer action was not a refusal of the demand and was within its discretion. The Company’s motion to dismiss was denied on January 22, 2020. By agreement of the parties and order of the court, the case was stayed pending the outcome of the appeal in the Eastern District of Virginia matter. The appeal was denied in December 2021, and the shareholder subsequently filed a voluntary dismissal of this action with prejudice. This matter is now closed.

On March 31, 2020, a group of individual shareholders filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, asserting non-class claims based on allegations substantially similar to those at issue in the earlier-filed putative class action complaints pending in the Northern District of California and Eastern District of Virginia. The plaintiffs assert claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and under Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. On April 29, 2020, the court granted an administrative motion to relate the case with the earlier-filed putative class action pending in the Northern District of California. And on May 13, 2020, the parties filed a stipulation requesting to stay the case subject to resolution of the motions to dismiss in the Northern District of California and Eastern District of Virginia class actions. Following the dismissal with prejudice of the Northern District of California action and the denial of the plaintiffs appeal in the Eastern District of Virginia action, the plaintiffs in this action filed a voluntary dismissal with prejudice. This matter is now closed.

The Company believes that the remaining lawsuits described above are also without merit, and it intends to vigorously defend them.

DXC TECHNOLOGY COMPANY

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)

Tax Examinations: The Company is under IRS examination in the U.S. on its federal income tax returns for certain fiscal years and is in disagreement with the IRS on certain of our tax positions. See Note 16 – “Income Taxes” for further information.

In addition to the matters noted above, the Company is currently subject in the normal course of business to various claims and contingencies arising from, among other things, disputes with customers, vendors, employees, contract counterparties and other parties, as well as securities matters, environmental matters, matters concerning the licensing and use of intellectual property, and inquiries and investigations by regulatory authorities and government agencies. Some of these disputes involve or may involve litigation. The financial statements reflect the treatment of claims and contingencies based on management’s view of the expected outcome. DXC consults with outside legal counsel on issues related to litigation and regulatory compliance and seeks input from other experts and advisors with respect to matters in the ordinary course of business. Although the outcome of these and other matters cannot be predicted with certainty, and the impact of the final resolution of these and other matters on the Company’s results of operations in a particular subsequent reporting period could be material and adverse, management does not believe based on information currently available to the Company, that the resolution of any of the matters currently pending against the Company will have a material adverse effect on the financial position of the Company or the ability of the Company to meet its financial obligations as they become due. Unless otherwise noted, the Company is unable to determine at this time a reasonable estimate of a possible loss or range of losses associated with the foregoing disclosed contingent matters.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Introduction

The purpose of the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is to present information that management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our results of operations and cash flows for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022 and our financial condition as of December 31, 2021. The MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our financial statements and accompanying notes.

The MD&A is organized in the following sections:

•Background

•Results of Operations

•Liquidity and Capital Resources

•Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

•Contractual Obligations

•Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The following discussion includes a comparison of our results of operations and liquidity and capital resources for the third quarters and first nine months of fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021.

Results of Operations

The following table sets forth certain financial data for the third quarters and first nine months of fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021:


	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended
(In millions, except per-share amounts)	December 31, 2021		December 31, 2020		December 31, 2021		December 31, 2020
Revenues	$	4,089	$	4,288	$	12,257	$	13,344

Income, before income taxes	166		1,978		342		1,447
Income tax expense	64		875		145		789
Net income	$	102	$	1,103	$	197	$	658

Diluted earnings per share	$	0.38	$	4.29	$	0.73	$	2.54

Fiscal 2022 Third Quarter Highlights

Financial highlights for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022 include the following:

•Revenues for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022 were $4.1 billion and $12.3 billion, respectively, a decrease of 4.6% and 8.1%, respectively, as compared to the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2021. See "Revenues” caption below for additional information.

•Net income and diluted earnings per share for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 were $102 million and $0.38, respectively. Net income decreased by $1,001 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2022 as compared to the same period of prior fiscal year. The decrease was primarily due to the gain on disposition of the HHS business during the third quarter of fiscal 2021 and a reduction in revenue in the current period partially offset by cost optimization realized in the current period, lower costs after the dispositions of the HPS and HHS businesses, lower transaction, separation and integration-related costs, a reduction in restructuring activities, and decreases in depreciation and amortization. Net income included the cumulative impact of $137 million, reflecting restructuring costs, transaction, separation and integration-related costs, amortization of acquired intangible assets, gains and losses on dispositions, debt extinguishment costs, pension and other post-retirement benefit ("OPEB") actuarial and settlement losses, and a tax adjustment. This compares with net income and diluted earnings per share of $1,103 million and $4.29, respectively, for the third quarter of fiscal 2021.

•Net income and diluted earnings per share for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 were $197 million and $0.73, respectively. Net income decreased by $461 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2022 as compared to the same period of prior fiscal year. In addition to the previously described activity for the third quarter of fiscal 2022, decreases in net income for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 also reflects higher debt extinguishment costs partially offset by the gain on disposition of the HPS business during the first quarter of fiscal 2022. Net income included the cumulative impact of $497 million, reflecting restructuring costs, transaction, separation and integration-related costs, amortization of acquired intangible assets, gains on dispositions, impairment losses, debt extinguishment costs, pension and OPEB actuarial and settlement losses, and a tax adjustment. This compares with net income and diluted earnings per share of $658 million and $2.54, respectively, for the first nine months of fiscal 2021.

•Our cash and cash equivalents were $2.9 billion as of December 31, 2021.

•We generated $1,230 million of cash from operations during the first nine months of fiscal 2022, as compared to $404 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2021. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” caption below for additional information.

Revenues

During the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021, the distribution of our revenues across geographies was as follows:


	Three Months Ended
(in millions)	December 31, 2021		December 31, 2020		Change		Percentage Change
GBS	$	1,946	$	1,921	$	25	1.3	%
GIS	2,143		2,367		(224)		(9.5)	%
Total Revenues	$	4,089	$	4,288	$	(199)	(4.6)	%


	Nine Months Ended
(in millions)	December 31, 2021		December 31, 2020		Change		Percentage Change
GBS	$	5,706	$	6,337	$	(631)	(10.0)	%
GIS	6,551		7,007		(456)		(6.5)	%
Total Revenues	$	12,257	$	13,344	$	(1,087)	(8.1)	%

The decrease in revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2022, compared with fiscal 2021 of the same period, reflects project completions, the dispositions of the HPS business and other insignificant businesses during the first quarter of fiscal 2022, and project terminations. The decrease in revenues was partially offset by additional services provided to new and existing customers, including revenues from software licenses, increased pass-through revenue associated with the resale of hardware and software, and increased run-rate project volumes. The decrease in revenues for first nine months of fiscal 2022 compared with fiscal 2021 of the same period, also reflects the disposition of the HHS business during the third quarter of fiscal 2021. Revenues for the third quarter included an unfavorable foreign currency exchange rate impact of 1.0% and a favorable foreign currency exchange rate impact of 2.1% for the first nine months of fiscal 2022. These impacts were primarily driven by the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the Euro and Australian Dollar during the third quarter of fiscal 2022 and an overall weakening of the U.S. dollar against the British Pound, Canadian Dollar, and Australian Dollar for the first nine months of fiscal 2022.

For the discussion of risks associated with our foreign operations, see Part 1, Item 1A “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021.

As a global company, approximately 71% of our revenues for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 were earned internationally. As a result, the comparison of revenues denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, from period to period, is impacted by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Constant currency revenues are a non-GAAP measure calculated by translating current period activity into U.S. dollars using the comparable prior period’s currency conversion rates. This information is consistent with how management views our revenues and evaluates our operating performance and trends. The table below summarizes our constant currency revenues:


	Three Months Ended
(in millions)	Constant Currency December 31, 2021		December 31, 2020		Change		Percentage Change
GBS	$	1,971	$	1,921	$	50	2.6	%
GIS	2,163		2,367		(204)		(8.6)	%
Total	$	4,134	$	4,288	$	(154)	(3.6)	%


	Nine Months Ended
(in millions)	Constant Currency December 31, 2021		December 31, 2020		Change		Percentage Change
GBS	$	5,606	$	6,337	$	(731)	(11.5)	%
GIS	6,373		7,007		(634)		(9.0)	%
Total	$	11,979	$	13,344	$	(1,365)	(10.2)	%

Global Business Services

Our GBS revenues were $1.9 billion in the third quarter and $5.7 billion in the first nine months of fiscal 2022, an increase of 1.3% for the third quarter and a decrease of 10.0% for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 as compared to the same periods in fiscal 2021. GBS revenue in constant currency increased by 2.6% in the third quarter and decreased 11.5% during the first nine months of fiscal 2022 as compared to the same periods in fiscal 2021. The increase in GBS revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 was primarily due to an increase in run-rate project volumes and additional services provided to new and existing customers, including revenues from software licenses. The increase in revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 was partially offset by the disposition of the HPS business at the beginning of the first quarter of fiscal 2022 and project completions. The decrease in GBS revenues for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 also reflects the disposition of the HHS business during the third quarter fiscal 2021.

For the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, GBS contract awards were $2.5 billion and $6.6 billion, respectively, as compared to $2.7 billion and $8.6 billion in the corresponding periods of fiscal 2021.

Global Infrastructure Services

Our GIS revenues were $2.1 billion in the third quarter and $6.6 billion in the first nine months of fiscal 2022, a decrease of 9.5% and 6.5%, respectively, compared to the same periods in fiscal 2021. GIS revenues in constant currency decreased by 8.6% and 9.0% in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, respectively, as compared to the same periods in fiscal 2021. The decrease in GIS revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 was primarily due to project completions, project terminations, and a decrease in run-rate project volumes. The decrease in GIS revenues was partially offset by increased pass-through revenue associated with the resale of hardware and software and additional services provided to new and existing customers. The decrease in GIS revenues for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 also reflects the dispositions of the HHS business during the third quarter fiscal 2021 and other insignificant businesses.

For the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, GIS contract awards were $2.5 billion and $6.7 billion, respectively, as compared to $2.2 billion and $6.5 billion in the corresponding periods of fiscal 2021.

Costs and Expenses

Our total costs and expenses are shown in the tables below:


	Three Months Ended
	Amount				Percentage of Revenues				Percentage Point Change
(in millions)	December 31, 2021		December 31, 2020		December 31, 2021		December 31, 2020

	Amount				Percentage of Revenues				Percentage Point Change
(in millions)	December 31, 2021		December 31, 2020		December 31, 2021		December 31, 2020
Costs of services (excludes depreciation and amortization and restructuring costs)	$	9,522	$	10,525	77.7	%	78.9	%	(1.2)
Selling, general and administrative (excludes depreciation and amortization and restructuring costs)	1,093		1,595		8.9		12.0		(3.1)

Restructuring costs	248		441		2.0		3.3		(1.3)
Interest expense	161		284		1.3		2.1		(0.8)
Interest income	(51)		(76)		(0.4)		(0.6)		0.2

Total Costs and Expenses	$	11,915	$	11,897	97.2	%	89.2	%	8.0

The 42.0 and 8.0 percentage point increase in total costs and expenses as a percentage of revenue for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022 primarily reflects the gain on disposition of businesses resulting from the sale of the Company’s HHS business that occurred during the third quarter of fiscal 2021.

Costs of Services

Costs of services, excluding depreciation and amortization and restructuring costs (“COS”), was $3.2 billion and $9.5 billion for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, respectively. COS decreased by $154 million and $1,003 million during the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, respectively, as compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year. The decrease in COS for the third quarter of fiscal 2022, compared with fiscal 2021 of the same period, primarily reflects cost optimization savings realized during fiscal 2022 and reduced costs resulting from the dispositions of the HPS business and other insignificant businesses during the first quarter of fiscal 2022. The decrease in COS for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 compared with fiscal 2021 of the same period, also reflects the disposition of the HHS business during the third quarter of fiscal 2021. COS as a percentage of revenues were consistent during the third quarter and decreased 1.2 points during the first nine months of fiscal 2022, as compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year. This point decrease was primarily driven by cost reductions exceeding the associated decline in revenue compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative expense, excluding depreciation and amortization and restructuring costs (“SG&A”), was $340 million and $1,093 million for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, respectively. SG&A decreased by $177 million and $502 million during the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, respectively, as compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year. The decrease in SG&A for the third quarter of fiscal 2022, compared with fiscal 2021 of the same period, reflects lower transaction, separation and integration-related costs, cost optimization savings realized during fiscal 2022, and reduced costs resulting from the dispositions of the HPS business and other insignificant businesses during the first quarter of fiscal 2022. The decrease in SG&A for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 compared with fiscal 2021 of the same period, also reflects the disposition of the HHS business during the third quarter of fiscal 2021

Transaction, separation and integration-related costs of $11 million and $23 million were included in SG&A for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, as compared to $96 million and $307 million for the comparable periods of the prior fiscal year.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation expense was $156 million and $479 million for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, respectively. Depreciation expense decreased by $29 million and $84 million during the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, respectively, as compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year. The net decrease in depreciation expense for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 was primarily due to impairment of undeployed assets in the prior year and asset retirements. The net decrease in depreciation expense for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 was primarily due to asset useful life adjustments in the prior year, a reduction in assets due to impairment of undeployed assets in the prior year, and asset retirements.

Amortization expense was $268 million and $815 million for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, respectively. Amortization expense decreased by $22 million and $114 million during the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, respectively, as compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year. The net decrease in amortization expense for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 was primarily due to asset retirements and a decline in amortization related to transition and transformation contract costs. The net decrease in amortization expense for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 was primarily due to a reduction in customer related intangibles related to the disposition of the HHS business at the beginning of the third quarter of fiscal 2021. See Note 4 – “Divestitures” for additional information.

Restructuring Costs

During fiscal 2022, management approved global cost savings initiatives designed to better align our workforce and facility structures. During the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, restructuring costs, net of reversals, were $36 million and $248 million, respectively, as compared to $104 million and $441 million during the same periods of the prior fiscal year.

For an analysis of changes in our restructuring liabilities by restructuring plans, see Note 14 – “Restructuring Costs” to the financial statements.

Interest Expense and Interest Income

Interest expense was $38 million and $161 million for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, respectively. Interest expense decreased by $44 million and $123 million during the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, respectively, as compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year. These decreases were primarily due to a reduction in bonds and term loans, decreased amounts drawn on our revolving credit facility, and decreases to finance leases and asset financing.

Interest income was $15 million and $51 million for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, respectively. Interest income decreased by $13 million and $25 million during the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, respectively, as compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year. These decreases were primarily driven by lower income from our multicurrency cash pools and money market accounts as well as decreases in lease interest income.

Debt Extinguishment Costs

Debt extinguishment costs were $2 million and $311 million for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, respectively. Debt extinguishment costs for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 include costs related to the decrease in our revolving credit facility limit from $4 billion to $3 billion.

Debt extinguishment costs for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 also includes activity from the first and second quarters of fiscal 2022 consisting of full redemption of our Euro-denominated term loan facility, two series of 4.45% senior notes due fiscal 2023, 4.25% senior notes due fiscal 2025, 2.75% senior notes due fiscal 2025, 4.125% senior notes due fiscal 2026, 4.750% senior notes due fiscal 2028, 7.45% senior notes due fiscal 2030, and extinguishment of debt associated with asset financing. There were no debt extinguishment costs recorded during the same period in fiscal 2021.

Gain on Disposition of Businesses

During the first quarter of fiscal 2022, DXC sold its HPS business for $551 million which resulted in an estimated pre-tax gain on sale of $337 million, net of closing costs for the first nine months of fiscal 2022. Insignificant businesses were also sold during the first quarter of fiscal 2022 that resulted in a gain of $49 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2022. This was partially offset by $13 million in sales price adjustments related to prior year dispositions for the first nine months of fiscal 2022, which resulted from changes in projected closing net working capital.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2021, DXC sold its U.S. State and Local Health and Human Services business for a total enterprise value of $5.0 billion and resulted in an estimated pre-tax gain on sale of $2,041 million, net of closing costs for both the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2021. Insignificant businesses were also sold during the third quarter of fiscal 2021 that resulted in a gain of $5 million. The gain on sale of the U.S. State and Local Health and Human Services business was adjusted during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021 for $27 million.

Other Income, Net

Other income, net, comprises non-service cost components of net periodic pension income, movement in foreign currency exchange rates on our foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities and the related economic hedges, equity earnings of unconsolidated affiliates and other miscellaneous gains and losses.

Other income was $85 million and $290 million for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, respectively. Other income decreased by $42 million and $28 million during the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, respectively, as compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year. These decreases were primarily due to lower net gains on sales of operating and non-operating assets and a decrease in non-service components of net periodic pension income.

Taxes

Our effective tax rate (“ETR”) was 38.6% and 44.2% for the three months ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, and 42.4% and 54.5% for the nine months ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. For the three months ended December 31, 2021, the primary drivers of the ETR were the global mix of income, an increase in unrecognized tax benefits primarily related to deductions taken in prior tax returns and tax rate changes in non-U.S. jurisdictions. For the nine months ended December 31, 2021, the primary drivers of the ETR were the global mix of income, gain on sale of HPS business, tax rate changes in non-U.S. jurisdictions and recording a valuation allowance on certain deferred tax assets in non-U.S. jurisdictions. For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2020, the primary drivers of the ETR were the gain on sale of HHS Business, global mix of income and foreign tax credits.

The United States Congress is currently working to enact a tax reform bill, which would result in significant changes to the U.S. tax system. We expect that if a bill is enacted, it could have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements in future periods. We continue to monitor developments and assess the impact to DXC. The IRS recently published final regulations for U.S. foreign tax credits that will be effective for future periods. The Company is currently assessing the impact of these regulations.

Earnings Per Share

Diluted EPS for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022 was $0.38 and $0.73, respectively. Diluted EPS decreased by $3.91 and $1.81 during the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, respectively, as compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year. Decreases in diluted EPS were due to decreases in net income of $1,001 million and $461 million during the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2022, respectively, over the same periods in the prior fiscal year.

Diluted EPS for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 includes $0.13 per share of restructuring costs, $0.04 per share of transaction, separation and integration-related costs, $0.36 per share of amortization of acquired intangible assets, $0.02 per share of net losses on dispositions, $0.01 per share of debt extinguishment costs, $0.02 per share of pension and OPEB actuarial and settlement losses, and $(0.04) per share of tax adjustments relating to the net revaluation of deferred taxes resulting from changes in non-US jurisdiction tax rates.

Diluted EPS for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 includes $0.78 per share of restructuring costs, $0.07 per share of transaction, separation and integration-related costs, $1.02 per share of amortization of acquired intangible assets, $(0.98) per share of net gains on dispositions, $0.03 per share of impairment losses, $0.92 per share of debt extinguishment costs, $0.02 per share of pension and OPEB actuarial and settlement losses, and $0.07 per share of tax adjustments relating to the net revaluation of deferred taxes resulting from changes in non-US jurisdiction tax rates.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We present non-GAAP financial measures of performance which are derived from the statements of operations of DXC. These non-GAAP financial measures include earnings before interest and taxes (“EBIT”), adjusted EBIT, non-GAAP income before income taxes, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income attributable to DXC common stockholders, and non-GAAP EPS, and constant currency revenues.

We believe EBIT, adjusted EBIT, non-GAAP income before income taxes, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income attributable to DXC common stockholders, and non-GAAP EPS provide investors with useful supplemental information about our operating performance after excluding certain categories of expenses.

We believe constant currency revenues provides investors with useful supplemental information about our revenues after excluding the effect of currency exchange rate fluctuations for currencies other than U.S. dollars in the periods presented. See below for a description of the methodology we use to present constant currency revenues.

One category of expenses excluded from adjusted EBIT, non-GAAP income before tax, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS, incremental amortization of intangible assets acquired through business combinations, may result in a significant difference in period over period amortization expense on a GAAP basis. We exclude amortization of certain acquired intangible assets as these non-cash amounts are inconsistent in amount and frequency and are significantly impacted by the timing and/or size of acquisitions. Although DXC management excludes amortization of acquired intangible assets primarily customer-related intangible assets, from its non-GAAP expenses, we believe that it is important for investors to understand that such intangible assets were recorded as part of purchase accounting and support revenue generation. Any future transactions may result in a change to the acquired intangible asset balances and associated amortization expense.

Another category of expenses excluded from adjusted EBIT, non-GAAP income before tax, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS is impairment losses, which may result in a significant difference in period over period expense on a GAAP basis. We exclude impairment losses as these non-cash amounts, reflect generally an acceleration of what would be multiple periods of expense and do not expect to occur frequently. Further assets such as goodwill may be significantly impacted by market conditions outside of management’s control.

There are limitations to the use of the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this report. One of the limitations is that they do not reflect complete financial results. We compensate for this limitation by providing a reconciliation between our non-GAAP financial measures and the respective most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently than we do, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes between companies. Selected references are made on a “constant currency basis” so that certain financial results can be viewed without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency rates, thereby providing comparisons of operating performance from period to period. Financial results on a “constant currency basis” are non-GAAP measures calculated by translating current period activity into U.S. dollars using the comparable prior period’s currency conversion rates. This approach is used for all results where the functional currency is not the U.S. dollar. Please see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Results of Operations—Fiscal 2022 Third Quarter Highlights.”

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Our non-GAAP adjustments include:

•Restructuring costs – includes costs, net of reversals, related to workforce and real estate optimization and other similar charges.

•Transaction, separation and integration-related (“TSI”) costs – includes costs related to integration, planning, financing and advisory fees and other similar charges associated with mergers, acquisitions, strategic investments, joint ventures, and dispositions and other similar transactions.(1)

•Amortization of acquired intangible assets – includes amortization of intangible assets acquired through business combinations.

•Gains and losses on dispositions – gains and losses related to dispositions of businesses, strategic assets and interests in less than wholly-owned entities.(2)

•Impairment losses – impairment losses on assets classified as long-term on the balance sheet.(3)

•Debt extinguishment costs – costs associated with early retirement, redemption, repayment or repurchase of debt and debt-like items including any breakage, make-whole premium, prepayment penalty or similar costs as well as solicitation and other legal and advisory expenses.(4)

•Pension and OPEB actuarial and settlement gains and losses – pension and OPEB actuarial mark to market adjustments and settlement gains and losses.

•Tax adjustments – discrete tax adjustments to impair or recognize certain deferred tax assets, adjustments for changes in tax legislation and the impact of merger and divestitures. Income tax expense of all other (non-discrete) non-GAAP adjustments is based on the difference in the GAAP annual effective tax rate (AETR) and overall non-GAAP provision (consistent with the GAAP methodology).(5)

(1) TSI-Related Costs include fees and other internal and external expenses associated with legal, accounting, consulting, due diligence, investment banking advisory, and other services, as well as financing fees, retention incentives, and resolution of transaction related claims in connection with, or resulting from, exploring or executing potential, acquisitions, dispositions and strategic investments, whether or not announced or consummated.

The TSI-Related costs for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 include $10 million of costs incurred in connection with activities related to acquisitions and divestitures; and $1 million of expenses related to integration projects from the HPES merger.

The TSI-Related costs for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 include $13 million of costs to execute the strategic alternatives; $4 million legal costs and ($14 million) credit towards Peraton Arbitration settlement, $5 million in expenses related to integration projects resulting from the HPES merger (including costs associated with continuing efforts to separate certain IT systems) and $15 million of costs incurred in connection with activities related to other acquisitions and divestitures.

(2) Gains and losses on dispositions for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 include a $337 million gain on sale of the HPS business, gains of $19 million on other dispositions and ($13 million) of adjustments relating to the sale of the HHS business.

(3) Impairment losses on dispositions for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 includes a $10 million impairment charge of capitalized transition and transformation costs.

(4) Debt extinguishment costs adjustments for the third quarter of fiscal 2022 include $2 million related to the decrease in our revolving credit facility limit.

Debt extinguishment costs adjustments for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 reflects $2 million related to the decrease in our revolving credit facility limit, $18 million to fully redeem two series of our 4.45% senior notes due fiscal 2023, $7 million associated with asset financing, $1 million to fully redeem our Euro-denominated term loan facility, $41 million to fully redeem our 4.25% senior notes due fiscal 2025, $26 million to fully redeem our 2.75% senior notes due fiscal 2025, $58 million to fully redeem our 4.125% senior notes due fiscal 2026, $87 million to fully redeem our 4.750% senior notes due fiscal 2028, and $71 million to fully redeem our 7.45% senior notes due fiscal 2030.

(5) Tax adjustment for the first nine months of fiscal 2022 reflects net revaluation of deferred taxes resulting from changes in non-US jurisdiction tax rates.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Cash Flows

As of December 31, 2021, our cash and cash equivalents (“cash”) were $2.9 billion, of which $1.5 billion was held outside of the U.S. As of March 31, 2021, our cash was $3.0 billion, of which $1.3 billion was held outside of the U.S. We maintain various multi-currency, multi-entity, cross-border, physical and notional cash pool arrangements with various counterparties to manage liquidity efficiently that enable participating subsidiaries to draw on the Company’s pooled resources to meet liquidity needs.

A significant portion of the cash held by our foreign subsidiaries is not expected to be impacted by U.S. federal income tax upon repatriation. However, a portion of this cash may still be subject to foreign and U.S. state income tax consequences upon future remittance. Therefore, if additional funds held outside the U.S. are needed for our operations in the U.S., we plan to repatriate the funds not designated as indefinitely reinvested.

We have $0.1 billion in cash held by foreign subsidiaries used for local operations that is subject to country-specific limitations which may restrict or result in increased costs in the repatriation of these funds. In addition, other practical considerations may limit our use of consolidated cash. This includes cash of $0.7 billion held in a German financial services subsidiary subject to regulatory requirements, and $0.2 billion held by majority owned consolidated subsidiaries where third-parties or public shareholders hold minority interests.

The following table summarizes our cash flow activity:


	Nine Months Ended
(in millions)	December 31, 2021		December 31, 2020		Change
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	1,230	$	404	$	826

Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of year	2,968		3,679
Cash and cash equivalents at the end of period	$	2,919	$	3,919

Operating cash flow

Net cash provided by operating activities during the first nine months of fiscal 2022 was $1,230 million as compared to $404 million during the comparable period of the prior fiscal year. The increase of $826 million was primarily due to an increase in net income, net of adjustments of $1,503 million, partially offset by a $677 million unfavorable change in working capital due to higher working capital outflows during the first nine months of fiscal 2022.

The following table contains certain key working capital metrics:


	Nine Months Ended
		December 31, 2021	December 31, 2020
Days of sales outstanding in accounts receivable		64	64

Days of purchases outstanding in accounts payable		(40)	(38)
Cash conversion cycle		24	26

Investing cash flow

Net cash provided by investing activities during the first nine months of fiscal 2022 was $93 million as compared to $4,500 million during the comparable period of the prior fiscal year. The decrease in net cash provided of $4,407 million was primarily due to a decrease in business dispositions of $4,423 million and a decrease in cash collections related to deferred purchase price receivables of $159 million. This was partially offset by an increase in proceeds from sale of assets of $68 million, a decrease in capital expenditures of $33 million, and proceeds from short-term investing of $24 million.

Financing cash flow

Net cash used in financing activities during the first nine months of fiscal 2022 was $1,460 million as compared to $4,671 million during the comparable period of the prior fiscal year. The $3,211 million decrease in cash used was primarily due to increased net borrowings on long-term debt of $1,998 million, and net draws on commercial paper of $492 million. In addition, net repayments totaling $1,500 million were made during fiscal 2021 on lines of credit that were not drawn against during fiscal 2022 and dividends of $53 million were paid in fiscal 2021, but not paid during fiscal 2022. This was partially offset by share repurchases of $352 million, payments for debt extinguishment costs of $344 million, and an increase in payments on capital leases and borrowings for asset financing of $161 million.

Capital Resources

See Note 21 – “Commitments and Contingencies” for a discussion of the general purpose of guarantees and commitments. The anticipated sources of funds to fulfill such commitments are listed below and under the “Liquidity” subheading.

The following table summarizes our total debt:


	As of
(in millions)	December 31, 2021		March 31, 2021
Short-term debt and current maturities of long-term debt	$	706	$	1,167
Long-term debt, net of current maturities	4,236		4,345
Total debt	$	4,942	$	5,512

The $0.6 billion decrease in total debt during the first nine months of fiscal 2022 was primarily attributed to the retirement of all the remaining $319 million of the 4.45% senior notes due fiscal 2023 using the proceeds from the sale of our HPS Business, and the repurchase of the $33 million of the 4.125% senior notes due fiscal 2026 during the first quarter of fiscal 2022. Approximately $500 million of net finance lease liabilities and borrowings for assets acquired under long-term financing were also repaid during the first nine months of fiscal 2022 using the proceeds from the divestitures of other businesses and existing cash on hand. The decrease was partially offset by the issuance of Euro and U.S. Dollar Senior Notes of which proceeds were used to repay term loans and senior notes as discussed below.

Euro Senior Notes Issuance

During the second quarter of fiscal 2022, we issued (i) €750 million aggregate principal amount of our 0.450% senior notes due fiscal 2028 and (ii) €600 million aggregate principal amount of our 0.950% senior notes due fiscal 2032 (collectively, the “Euro Notes”). The proceeds from the Euro Notes were applied principally to the repayment in full of the €400 million aggregate principal amount of outstanding borrowings under our Euro-denominated term loan facility, the repayment of our U.S. dollar-denominated 4.25% senior notes due fiscal 2025 and the repayment of our Sterling-denominated 2.75% senior notes due fiscal 2025.

U.S. Dollar Senior Notes Issuance

During the second quarter of fiscal 2022, we issued (i) $700 million aggregate principal amount of our 1.80% senior notes due fiscal 2027, and (ii) $650 million aggregate principal amount of our 2.375% senior notes due fiscal 2029 (collectively, the “USD Notes”). The proceeds from the USD Notes were used for the repayment of our remaining 4.125% senior notes due fiscal 2026, our 4.75% senior notes due fiscal 2028 and our 7.45% senior notes due fiscal 2030.

We were in compliance with all financial covenants associated with our borrowings as of December 31, 2021 and March 31, 2021.

Liquidity

We expect our existing cash and cash equivalents, together with cash generated from operations, will be sufficient to meet our normal operating requirements for the next 12 months. We expect to continue using cash generated by operations as a primary source of liquidity; however, should we require funds greater than that generated from our operations to fund discretionary investment activities, such as business acquisitions, we have the ability to raise capital through borrowing under our revolving credit facility, issuance of capital market debt instruments such as commercial paper, term loans, and bonds. In addition, we currently utilize, and will further utilize our cross-currency cash pool for liquidity needs. However, there is no guarantee that we will be able to obtain debt financing, if required, on terms and conditions acceptable to us, if at all, in the future.

Our exposure to operational liquidity risk is primarily from long-term contracts which require significant investment of cash during the initial phases of the contracts. The recovery of these investments is over the life of the contracts and is dependent upon our performance as well as customer acceptance.

The following table summarizes our total liquidity:


	As of
(in millions)	December 31, 2021
Cash and cash equivalents	$	2,919
Available borrowings under our revolving credit facility	3,000

Total liquidity	$	5,919

During November 2021 we amended our revolving credit facility to among other things, decrease available borrowings from $4.0 billion to $3.0 billion.

Share Repurchases

During the first quarter of fiscal 2018, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $2.0 billion of our common stock and during the third quarter of fiscal 2019, our Board of Directors approved an incremental $2.0 billion share repurchase. This program became effective on April 3, 2017 with no end date established. During the nine months ended December 31, 2021, we repurchased 10,617,767 shares of our common stock at an aggregate cost of $363 million. See Note 17 – “Stockholders’ Equity” to the financial statements.

Dividends

To maintain our financial flexibility, we continue to suspend payment of quarterly dividends for fiscal 2022.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. These estimates may change in the future if underlying assumptions or factors change. Accordingly, actual results could differ materially from our estimates under different assumptions, judgments or conditions. We consider the following policies to be critical because of their complexity and the high degree of judgment involved in implementing them: revenue recognition, income taxes, business combinations, defined benefit plans and valuation of assets. We have discussed the selection of our critical accounting policies and the effect of estimates with the audit committee of our board of directors. During the three months ended December 31, 2021, there were no changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates from those described in our fiscal 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K except as mentioned in Note 1 – “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.”

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk affecting DXC, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in Item 7A of Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021. Our exposure to market risk has not changed materially since March 31, 2021.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2021 because of the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting described below.

Control Activities

As previously disclosed during the third quarter of fiscal 2020, Management concluded there was a material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting related to the design and implementation of effective control activities based on the criteria established in the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework. Management identified multiple deficiencies that constitute a material weakness in the aggregate related to the establishment and timely reassessment of policies and procedures for complex transactions and processes and the related impacts for control activities.

As a result, we have concluded that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis and therefore we concluded that the aggregation of these deficiencies represents a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021.

Notwithstanding the identified material weakness, management believes that the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related financial information included in this 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our balance sheets, statements of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows as of and for the periods presented.

Remediation Plan

Management has taken and continues to take significant and comprehensive actions to remediate the material weakness. With the addition of new operations and finance leadership working in concert with the Audit Committee, Management assessed the root cause of the multiple deficiencies that aggregated to the material weakness.

The Audit Committee has been fully engaged and supportive of management’s efforts to remediate the Material Weakness. Beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, the Audit Committee has received a remediation report at each regularly held meeting and had additional informal meetings specifically to review progress on the remediation. Participants have included the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Corporate Controller, SOX Leader and Internal Audit to answer questions and take feedback from the Committee.

The following activities are designed as part of this remediation plan to (1) address the material weakness in the control activities component of the COSO framework and (2) enhance and improve our control activities and processes:

Actions to remediate the material weakness in the controls activities component of COSO:

•We appointed a new Chief Financial Officer during the third quarter of fiscal 2021 with previous experience as a Chief Accounting Officer and substantial experience leading a finance organization through transformation including remediating material weaknesses. Our Chief Financial Officer is leading our remediation efforts and is focused on driving change in our finance organization, control environment and culture.

•We appointed a new Corporate Controller and Principal Accounting Officer during the first quarter of fiscal 2022 with previous experience as a Corporate Controller and Chief Accounting Officer remediating material weaknesses.

•We evaluated our finance organization and have and will augment our finance team with additional professionals with the appropriate levels of accounting, controls, finance oversight and tax experience.

•We hired a dedicated team of controls and process experts to standardize our processes and focus our key controls to address material risks.

•We have increased communication and training to employees regarding internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures.

•We have designed and implemented an enterprise wide process to timely identify, track and appropriately resolve and conclude on complex transactions and disclosures.

Additional enhancements to improve our control activities and processes:

•We have enhanced our financial cadence and discipline including increased reviews of the underlying performance of the business and related balance sheet accounts.

•We have enhanced key enterprise controls including financial operations reviews, working capital reviews, balance sheet reviews and assessment and monitoring of non-routine accounting transactions.

•We have assessed relevant policies focusing on ownership and accountability and reviewed and implemented changes to thresholds to focus on risk.

•We have refined the financial close process so it executes with the appropriate cadence and rigor to reduce the length of time it takes to close.

•We are standardizing processes and rationalizing and strengthening controls to mitigate significant risk, enhance control owner accountability and transparency to address deficiencies in a holistic and timely manner.

While we have made meaningful progress on strengthening our internal controls, we have not fully tested all our remediation actions to verify the effectiveness of their design and operation and therefore concluded that our internal control over financial reporting is not designed or operating effectively as of the quarter ended December 31, 2021.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended December 31, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Our operations and financial results are subject to various risks and uncertainties, which may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations, and the actual outcome of matters as to which forward-looking statements are made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
