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 and public sector organizations trust DXC to deploy services to drive new levels of performance, competitiveness and customer experience across their IT estates.
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 Loss as the “statements of comprehensive loss,” (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 are made throughout to the numbered Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (“Notes”) in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
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 loss attributable to non-controlling interests are presented separately in the statements of comprehensive loss. 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.
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, 2022 (“fiscal 2022”).

DXC TECHNOLOGY COMPANY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
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.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recently issued ASUs effective after September 30, 2022 are not expected to have a material effect on DXC’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 2 – Divestitures
Fiscal 2023 Divestitures
During the first six months of fiscal 2023, the Company sold insignificant businesses that resulted in a loss of $3 million.
In response to the ongoing sanctions against certain industry sectors and parties in Russia due to the impact of the “Russia-Ukraine Conflict”, the Company completed the sale of its primary Russian entity in the first quarter of fiscal 2023. During the second quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company revised its estimate of proceeds from this divestiture based on the evolving conditions in the region.
Planned 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 $294 million as of September 30, 2022), subject to certain adjustments. The closing of the transaction is subject to certain conditions, including receipt of certain regulatory consents. Until these regulatory constraints are satisfied, FDB continues to be reported within ongoing operations. At September 30, 2022, FDB held approximately $473 million in cash which primarily related to customer deposit liabilities.
Fiscal 2022 Divestitures
HPS Sale
On April 1, 2021, DXC completed the sale of its HPS Business to Dedalus for approximately $551 million, resulting in a pre-tax gain on sale of $341 million, net of closing costs for the six months ended September 30, 2021.
Other Divestitures
During the first six months of fiscal 2022, the Company also sold certain insignificant businesses that resulted in a gain of $49 million. This was partially offset by $13 million in sales price adjustments related to prior year dispositions, which resulted from changes in estimated net working capital.

Note 3 – Earnings (Loss) 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:

Receivables Facility
The Company has an accounts receivable sales facility (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified as of September 30, 2022, the “Receivables Facility”) with certain unaffiliated financial institutions for the sale of commercial accounts receivable in the United States. The Receivables Facility was amended on July 29, 2022 extending the termination date to July 28, 2023.
As of September 30, 2022, the total availability under the Receivables Facility was $344 million, and the amount sold to the Purchasers was $377 million, which was derecognized from the Company’s balance sheet. As of September 30, 2022, the Company recorded a $33 million liability within accounts payable because the amount of cash proceeds received by the Company under the Receivables Facility was more than the total availability.
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.
Note 5 – Leases
The Company has operating and finance leases for data centers, corporate offices, and certain equipment.

Note 7 – 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 September 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022 were $801 million and $727 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2022, the related forecasted transactions extend through September 2024.
For the three and six months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, 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 six months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively, the Company had no cash flow hedges for which it was probable that the hedged transaction would not occur. As of September 30, 2022, $17 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 loss and income before income taxes
During the three and six months ended September 30, 2022, the pre-tax gain on derivatives designated for hedge accounting recognized in other comprehensive loss was $7 million and $10 million, respectively, and recognized in income before income taxes was $5 million and $9 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 September 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022 were $1.9 billion and $2.1 billion, respectively.
The following table presents the pretax 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:
As of | ||||||||||||||||||||

Derivatives not designated for hedge accounting: | ||||||||||||||||||||
Foreign currency forward contracts | Other current assets | $ | 38 | $ | 9 | |||||||||||||||
Accrued expenses and other current liabilities | $ | 18 | $ | 15 |
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 September 30, 2022, there were 10 counterparties with concentration of credit risk, and based on gross fair value, the maximum amount of loss that the Company could incur is $38 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 September 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022, DXC had $0.2 billion and $0.3 billion, respectively of foreign currency-denominated debt designated as hedges of net investments in non-U.S. subsidiaries. For the three and six months ended September 30, 2022, the pre-tax gain on foreign currency-denominated debt designated for hedge accounting recognized in other comprehensive loss was $17 million and $33 million, respectively.

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, 2022, it remained more likely than not that the fair value of the GBS reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount.
As of September 30, 2022, 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 September 30, 2022.

Note 14 – Income Taxes
The Company’s effective tax rate (“ETR”) was 48.1% and 24.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively, and 25.6% and 46.0% for the six months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the primary drivers of the ETR were the global mix of income, U.S. tax on foreign income, and the tax impact of business divestitures. For the six months ended September 30, 2022, the primary drivers of the ETR were the global mix of income, tax impact of business divestitures, U.S. tax on foreign income, and a decrease in unrecognized tax benefits due to income tax audit settlements and statute of limitation expirations. For the three months ended September 30, 2021, the primary drivers of the ETR were the global mix of income, and a decrease in unrecognized tax benefits due to income tax audit settlements and statute of limitation expirations. For the six months ended September 30, 2021, the primary drivers of the ETR were the global mix of income, gain on sale of the HPS business, tax rate changes in non-U.S. jurisdictions, and a decrease in unrecognized tax benefits due to income tax audit settlements and statute of limitation expirations.
The majority of our global unremitted foreign earnings have been taxed or would be exempt from U.S. tax upon repatriation. Such earnings and all current foreign earnings are not indefinitely reinvested. The following earnings are considered indefinitely reinvested: approximately $433 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 future strategy and 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 a $27 million tax indemnification receivable related to uncertain tax positions, a $68 million tax indemnification receivable related to other tax payables, and a $112 million 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 Perspecta Inc. (including its successors and permitted assigns, “Perspecta”). The Company generally will be responsible for tax liabilities arising prior to the USPS Separation, and Perspecta is liable to the Company for income tax receivables related to pre-spin-off periods. Income tax liabilities transferred to Perspecta 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 Perspecta related to pre-HPES Merger periods. Pursuant to the tax matters agreement, the Company recorded a $59 million tax indemnification receivable from Perspecta related to other tax payables and a $15 million tax indemnification payable to Perspecta related to income tax and other tax receivables.
In connection with the sale of the 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 the HPS business.
The Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) has examined, or is examining, the Company’s federal income tax returns for fiscal 2009 through the tax year ended October 31, 2018. With respect to CSC’s fiscal 2009 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 settled 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 the U.S. Tax Court, these matters are not fully reserved and would result in a federal and state tax expense of approximately $466 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 with the U.S. Tax Court. We do not expect the U.S. Tax Court matters to be resolved in the next 12 months.
The Company’s fiscal years 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2013 are in the U.S. Tax Court, and consequently these years will remain open until such proceedings have concluded. The statute of limitations on assessments related to a refund claim for fiscal year 2012 is open through February 28, 2025. The Company has agreed to extend the statute of limitations for fiscal years 2014 and 2015 through February 28, 2023 and fiscal and tax return years 2016 through 2020 to September 30, 2024. The statute of limitations is also open on assessments related to certain refund claims for fiscal years 2014 to 2017 through August 15, 2023.
The Company expects to reach resolution with regard to disagreed items for fiscal years 2009 through 2013 no earlier than fiscal 2025, to reach resolution for fiscal years 2014 and 2015 no earlier than fiscal 2024, and to reach resolution for fiscal years 2016 through 2020 no earlier than fiscal 2025.
The Company may settle certain other tax examinations for different amounts than the Company has accrued as uncertain tax positions. Consequently, the Company may need to accrue and ultimately pay additional amounts or pay lower amounts than previously estimated and accrued when positions are settled in the future. For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company’s liability for uncertain tax positions increased by $8 million (excluding interest and penalties and related tax attributes) primarily due to foreign tax benefits. The Company believes the outcomes that are reasonably possible within the next 12 months to result in a reduction in its liability for uncertain tax positions, excluding interest, penalties, and tax carryforwards, would be approximately $15 million.

Note 16 – Stock Incentive Plans
Restricted Stock Units and Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units
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. The Company also grants Performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”), which generally vest over a three-year period. The number of PSUs that ultimately vest is dependent upon the Company’s achievement of certain specified market- and performance-based criteria over the three-year vesting period. The fair value of RSUs and performance-based PSUs is based on the Company’s common stock closing price on the grant date. For PSUs with a market-based condition, DXC uses a Monte Carlo simulation model to value the grants.

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 cost 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.

Former business units of HPE now owned by the Company, and former business units of the Company now owned by Peraton (formerly Perspecta), may be proportionately liable for any recovery by plaintiffs in this matter.
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. In February 2022, the notice period closed. The litigation is currently in discovery.
Oracle America, Inc., et al. v. Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company: On March 22, 2016, Oracle filed a complaint against HPE in the U.S. District Court for 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.
A jury trial was held in May - June 2022, after which a jury awarded Oracle $30 million in damages. A final judgment has yet to be entered, pending the resolution of various post-trial motions. In September 2022, Oracle filed a motion seeking $27 million in attorneys’ fees and prejudgment interest. A hearing on Oracle’s motion is scheduled for December 2022.
In re DXC Technology Company Securities Litigation: Previously disclosed securities litigation matters have been dismissed, with one case remaining, in the Superior Court of the State of California.
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. The action asserts claims under Sections 11, 12 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and is premised on allegedly false and/or misleading statements, and alleged non-disclosure of material facts, regarding the Company’s prospects and expected performance. The putative class of plaintiffs 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.

DXC TECHNOLOGY COMPANY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
The State of California action had been stayed pending the outcome of the substantially similar federal action filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. The federal action was dismissed with prejudice in December 2021. Thereafter, the state court lifted the stay and entered an order permitting additional briefing by the parties. In March 2022, Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint, which the Company moved to dismiss. In August 2022, the Court granted the Company’s motion to dismiss, but permitted Plaintiffs to amend and refile their complaint. In September 2022, Plaintiffs filed a second amended complaint, which the Company has moved to dismiss. A hearing on the Company’s motion is scheduled for January 2023.
The Company believes that the final remaining lawsuit described above is also without merit, and intends to vigorously defend it.
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. For more detail, see Note 14 – “Income Taxes” for further information.
SEC Matter: In December 2019, the Company received a request for voluntary production of information in connection with an informal investigation by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The current focus of the investigation is the Company’s historical reporting related to its non-GAAP adjustment for “transaction, separation, and integration-related costs,” including whether the disclosure the Company previously used to describe the non-GAAP adjustment was sufficiently broad to cover certain expenses the Company included as transaction, separation, and integration-related costs. The non-GAAP costs at issue primarily consist of expenses associated with the business combination that formed DXC in 2017. The Company has cooperated fully with the SEC’s informal investigation, and the new management team appointed beginning in September of 2019 has proactively clarified and expanded the disclosure of the Company’s non-GAAP transaction, separation, and integration-related costs. In addition, the new management team significantly reduced the transaction, separation, and integration-related costs.
The Company intends to continue its voluntary cooperation with the SEC while seeking to resolve the matter. There can be no guarantee that any final resolution will be reached or, if one is reached, as to the timing or final terms of any such resolution. However, in the second quarter of the Company’s fiscal year 2023, the Company accrued $8 million, representing its current estimate of the settlement costs based on its ongoing discussions with the SEC.
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.

For the second quarter of fiscal 2023, our total revenue was $3.6 billion, a decrease of $461 million or 11.4%, as compared to the same period a year ago. The 11.4% decrease against the comparative period includes a 7.4% unfavorable foreign currency exchange rate impact, a 2.5% decline in revenue from the disposition of certain businesses, and a 1.5% decline in organic revenue.
For the first six months of fiscal 2023, our total revenue was $7.3 billion, a decrease of $895 million or 11.0%, as compared to the same period a year ago. The 11.0% decrease against the comparative period includes a 6.7% unfavorable foreign currency exchange rate impact, a 2.2% decline in revenue from the disposition of certain businesses, and a 2.1% decline in organic revenue.
The unfavorable foreign currency exchange rate impact is primarily driven by the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the Euro, British Pound, and Australian Dollar.
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, 2022.

For the first six months of fiscal 2023, GBS revenue was $3.5 billion, a decrease of $289 million or 7.7%, as compared to the same period a year ago. The 7.7% decrease against the comparative period includes a 6.7% unfavorable foreign currency exchange rate impact and a 4.1% decline in revenue from the disposition of certain businesses, partially offset by 3.1% organic revenue growth from additional services provided to new and existing customers.
For the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2023, GBS contract awards were $1.7 billion and $3.4 billion, respectively, as compared to $1.7 billion and $4.1 billion, respectively, in the same periods in fiscal 2022.
Global Infrastructure Services
For the second quarter of fiscal 2023, our GIS revenue was $1.9 billion, a decrease of $301 million or 14.0%, as compared to the same period a year ago.

For the first six months of fiscal 2023, our GIS revenue was $3.8 billion, a decrease of $606 million or 13.7%, as compared to the same period a year ago. The 13.7% decrease against the comparative period includes a 6.6% unfavorable foreign currency exchange rate impact, 0.6% decline in revenue from the disposition of certain businesses, and a 6.5% decline in organic revenue.

Costs of Services
Costs of services, excluding depreciation and amortization and restructuring costs (“COS”), were $2.8 billion and $5.7 billion for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2023, respectively, a decrease of $313 million and $638 million, respectively, as compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year. The decreases were primarily due to a favorable foreign currency exchange rate impact of $237 million and $432 million for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2023, respectively, and lower spend on professional services and contractor-related expenses.
Selling, General and Administrative
Selling, general and administrative expense, excluding depreciation and amortization and restructuring costs (“SG&A”), was $324 million and $673 million for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2023, respectively, a decrease of $46 million and $80 million, respectively, as compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year. The decreases were primarily due to a favorable foreign currency exchange rate impact of $24 million and $37 million for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2023, respectively, and decreases in real estate costs and lower spend on professional services and contractor-related expenses.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation expense was $129 million and $267 million for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2023, respectively, a decrease of $36 million and $56 million, respectively, as compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year. The decreases in depreciation expense were primarily due to lower average net property and equipment balances and favorable foreign currency exchange rate impacts of $10 million and $17 million for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2023, respectively
Amortization expense was $251 million and $502 million for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2023, respectively, a decrease of $32 million and $45 million, respectively, as compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year. The decreases in amortization expense were primarily due to decreases in software amortization, a reduction in transition and transformation contract cost amortization due to contract completions, and favorable foreign currency exchange rate impacts of $14 million and $24 million for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2023, respectively.
39
Restructuring Costs
Restructuring costs represent severance related to workforce optimization programs and expense associated with facilities and data center rationalization.
During fiscal 2023, management approved global cost savings initiatives designed to better align our workforce and facility structures. During the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2023, restructuring costs, net of reversals, were $53 million and $86 million, respectively, a decrease of $92 million and $126 million, respectively, as compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year.
See Note 12 – “Restructuring Costs” for additional information about our restructuring actions.
Debt Extinguishment Costs
There were no debt extinguishment costs recorded for both the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2023.
Debt extinguishment costs were $281 million and $309 million for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2022, respectively, for the partial and full redemption of term loans, senior notes, and extinguishment of debt associated with asset financing.
Loss (gain) on Disposition of Businesses
During the first six months of fiscal 2023, DXC sold insignificant businesses that resulted in a loss of $3 million.
In response to the ongoing sanctions against certain industry sectors and parties in Russia due to the impact of the “Russia-Ukraine Conflict”, DXC completed the sale of its primary Russian entity in the first quarter of fiscal 2023. During the second quarter of fiscal 2023, DXC revised its estimate of proceeds from this divestiture based on the evolving conditions in the region.
During the first six months of fiscal 2022, DXC sold its HPS business for approximately $551 million, resulting in an estimated pre-tax gain on sale of $341 million, net of closing costs. DXC also sold certain insignificant businesses that resulted in a gain of $49 million. This was partially offset by $13 million in sales price adjustments related to prior year dispositions, which resulted from changes in estimated net working capital.
Interest Expense and Interest Income
Interest expense was $44 million and $81 million for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2023, respectively. Interest expense decreased by $17 million and $42 million during the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2023, 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, the Company's refinancing of its high coupon debt in fiscal 2022 and decreases in interest expense from finance leases and borrowings for asset financing.
Interest income was $28 million and $48 million for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2023, respectively. Interest income increased $12 million during both the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2023, as compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year. The increases were primarily driven by higher income from our multicurrency cash pools and money market accounts.
40
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, net, decreased by $34 million and $33 million for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2023, respectively, as compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year. For the second quarter of fiscal 2023, the $34 million decrease against the comparative period was primarily due to a $36 million decrease in the non-service cost components of net periodic pension income attributable to changes in expected returns on assets and other actuarial assumptions, a $7 million favorable foreign currency gain, and a $5 million decrease in other gains from sales of non-operating assets. For the first six months of fiscal 2023, the $33 million decrease against the comparative period was primarily due to a $66 million decrease in the non-service cost components of net periodic pension income attributable to changes in expected returns on assets and other actuarial assumptions, a $10 million favorable foreign currency gain, and a $23 million increase in other gains from sales of non-operating assets.
Taxes
Our effective tax rate (“ETR”) was 48.1% and 24.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively, and 25.6% and 46.0% for the six months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the primary drivers of the ETR were the global mix of income, U.S. tax on foreign income, and the tax impact of business divestitures. For the six months ended September 30, 2022, the primary drivers of the ETR were the global mix of income, tax impact of business divestitures, U.S. tax on foreign income, and a decrease in unrecognized tax benefits due to income tax audit settlements and statute of limitation expirations. For the three months ended September 30, 2021, the primary drivers of the ETR were the global mix of income and a decrease in unrecognized tax benefits due to income tax audit settlements and statute of limitation expirations. For the six months ended September 30, 2021, the primary drivers of the ETR were the global mix of income, gain on sale of the HPS business, tax rate changes in non-U.S. jurisdictions, and a decrease in unrecognized tax benefits due to income tax audit settlements and statute of limitation expirations.
In the U.S., the Inflation Reduction Act (“Act”) was signed into law on August 16, 2022. We do not currently expect the Act to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Earnings Per Share
Diluted EPS for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2023 was $0.12 and $0.55, respectively, an increase of $0.86 and $0.20, respectively, as compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year. The increases in diluted EPS were primarily due to increases in net income attributable to DXC common stockholders of $215 million and $39 million for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2023, respectively.
Diluted EPS for the second quarter of fiscal 2023 includes $0.18 per share of restructuring costs, $0.01 per share of transaction, separation and integration-related costs, $0.36 per share of amortization of acquired intangible assets, $0.03 per share of SEC matter charges, and $0.04 per share of net losses on dispositions.
Diluted EPS for the first six months of fiscal 2023 includes $0.29 per share of restructuring costs, $0.02 per share of transaction, separation and integration-related costs, $0.69 per share of amortization of acquired intangible assets, $0.03 per share of merger related indemnification costs, $0.03 per share of SEC matter charges, and $(0.12) per share of net losses on dispositions.

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 income tax, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income attributable to DXC common stockholders, and non-GAAP EPS, incremental amortization of intangible assets acquired through business combinations, if included, 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 income tax, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income attributable to DXC common stockholders, and non-GAAP EPS is impairment losses, which, if included, 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 are not expected 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 2023 Second Quarter Highlights.”

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and Cash Equivalents and Cash Flows
As of September 30, 2022, our cash and cash equivalents (“cash”) were $2.3 billion, of which $1.1 billion was held outside of the U.S. As of March 31, 2022, our cash was $2.7 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 these 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 $0.5 billion held in a German financial services subsidiary subject to regulatory requirements, and $0.1 billion held by majority owned consolidated subsidiaries where third-parties or public shareholders hold minority interests.

Operating cash flow
Net cash provided by operating activities during the first six months of fiscal 2023 was $375 million as compared to $534 million during the comparable period of the prior fiscal year. The decrease of $159 million was primarily due to a $167 million unfavorable change in working capital due to higher working capital outflows during the first six months of fiscal 2023, partially offset by an increase in net income, net of adjustments of $8 million.

Investing cash flow
Net cash (used in) provided by investing activities during the first six months of fiscal 2023 was $(193) million as compared to $199 million during the comparable period of the prior fiscal year. The change of $392 million was primarily due to a decrease in cash from business dispositions of $462 million and proceeds from short-term investing of $24 million incurred only in the comparable period of fiscal 2022. This was partially offset by a decrease in capital expenditures of $64 million and an increase in proceeds from sale of assets of $22 million,
Financing cash flow
Net cash used in financing activities during the first six months of fiscal 2023 was $513 million as compared to $1,063 million during the comparable period of the prior fiscal year. The $550 million decrease was primarily due to a decrease in payments on capital leases and borrowings for asset financing of $397 million, payments for debt extinguishment cost of $344 million incurred only in the comparable period of fiscal 2022, and an increase in commercial paper borrowings, net of repayments of $29 million. This was partially offset by an increase in share repurchases of $122 million and borrowings on long term debt, net of repayments of $66 million incurred only in the comparable period of fiscal 2022.
Capital Resources
See Note 19 – “Commitments and Contingencies” for disclosure of certain 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:

The $0.4 billion decrease in total debt during the first six months of fiscal 2023 was primarily attributed to the favorable foreign currency exchange rate of U.S. Dollar against the Euro. The decrease in total debt also included decreases in finance leases and borrowings for asset financing attributable to payments exceeding additions, partially offset by an increase in commercial paper borrowings.
During the second quarter of fiscal 2023, we entered into a term loan credit agreement maturing on September 1, 2024, in an aggregate principal amount of $500 million. See Note 10 - “Debt” for additional information.
We were in compliance with all financial covenants associated with our borrowings as of September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021.
Our credit ratings are as follows:
Rating Agency | Long Term Ratings | Short Term Ratings | Outlook | |||||||||||||||||
Fitch | BBB | F-2 | Stable | |||||||||||||||||
Moody’s | Baa2 | P-2 | Stable | |||||||||||||||||
S&P | BBB- | - | Stable |

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.
Our total liquidity of $5.8 billion as of September 30, 2022, includes $2.3 billion of cash and cash equivalents, $3.0 billion of available borrowings under our revolving credit facility, and $500 million of available borrowings under our term loan credit agreement.
Share Repurchases
See Note 15 – “Stockholders’ Equity”.
Dividends
To maintain our financial flexibility, we continue to suspend payment of quarterly dividends for fiscal 2023.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
In the normal course of business, we are party to arrangements that include guarantees, the receivables securitization facility and certain other financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk, such as letters of credit and surety bonds. We also use performance letters of credit to support various risk management insurance policies. No liabilities related to these arrangements are reflected in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. There have been no material changes to our off-balance-sheet arrangements reported under Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, other than as disclosed in Note 4 – “Receivables” and Note 19 – “Commitments and Contingencies”.
Contractual Obligations
There have been no material changes, outside the ordinary course of business, to our contractual obligations since March 31, 2022. For further information see “Contractual Obligations” in Item 7 of Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022.
For our minimum purchase commitments as of September 30, 2022, in connection with our long-term purchase agreements with certain software, hardware, telecommunication, and other service providers, see Note 19 – “Commitments and Contingencies.”
Critical Accounting 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 September 30, 2022, there were no changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates from those described in our fiscal 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K except as mentioned in Note 1 – “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.”

PART II
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
See Note 19 – “Commitments and Contingencies” to the financial statements under the caption “Contingencies” for information regarding legal proceedings in which we are involved.
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. In such case, the trading price for DXC common stock could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment. Past performance may not be a reliable indicator of future financial performance and historical trends should not be used to anticipate results or trends in future periods. Future performance and historical trends may be adversely affected by the aforementioned risks, and other variables and risks and uncertainties not currently known or that are currently expected to be immaterial may also materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations or the price of our common stock in the future. There have been no material changes to the risk factors described in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022.
