Parsons Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
Organization
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP") and pursuant to the interim period reporting requirements of Form 10-Q. They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and, therefore, should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The results of operations and cash flows for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year or for future years.
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes the accounts of Parsons Corporation and its subsidiaries and affiliates which it controls. Interests in joint ventures that are controlled by the Company, or for which the Company is otherwise deemed to be the primary beneficiary, are consolidated. For joint ventures in which the Company does not have a controlling interest, but exerts a significant influence, the Company applies the equity method of accounting (see “Note 14 – Investments in and Advances to Joint Ventures" for further discussion). Intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Certain amounts may not foot due to rounding.
Use of Estimates
In the fourth quarter of 2023, The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740)" ("ASU 2023-09"). ASU 2023-09 enhances the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 addresses investor requests for more transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. ASU 2023-09 also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after

Early
In the fourth quarter of 2023, the FASB Issued ASU 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280)". ASU 2023-07 introduces enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses along with other enhanced segment disclosures. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after
During July 2023, the FASB Issued ASU 2023-03. ASU 2023-03 incorporates, into certain accounting standards, amendments to SEC paragraphs pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 120, SEC Staff Announcement at the March 24, 2022 EITF meeting, and Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 6.B, Accounting Series Release 280—General Revisions of Regulation S-X: Income or Loss Applicable to Common Stock. These rules are effective immediately. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Billed accounts receivable represents amounts billed to clients that have not been collected.

The allowance for doubtful accounts was determined based on consideration of trends in actual and forecasted credit quality of clients, including delinquency and payment history, type of client, such as a government agency or commercial sector client, and general economic conditions and particular industry conditions that may affect a client’s ability to pay.
Transaction Price Allocated to the Remaining Unsatisfied Performance Obligations
The Company’s remaining unsatisfied performance obligations (“RUPO”) as of June 30, 2024 represent a measure of the total dollar value of work to be performed on contracts awarded and in-progress. The Company had $
RUPO will increase with awards of new contracts and decrease as the Company performs work and recognizes revenue on existing contracts. Projects are included within RUPO at such time the project is awarded and agreement on contract terms has been reached. The difference between RUPO and backlog relates to unexercised option years that are included within backlog and the value of Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (“IDIQ”) contracts included in backlog for which delivery orders have not been issued.
RUPO is comprised of: (a) original transaction price, (b) change orders for which written confirmations from our customers have been received, (c) pending change orders for which the Company expects to receive confirmations in the ordinary course of business, and (d) claim amounts that the Company has made against customers for which it has

Capped Call Transactions - Convertible Senior Notes due 2029
In February 2024, in connection with the offering of the 2029 Convertible Notes, the Company entered into capped call transactions (the “Capped Call Transactions”) with certain financial institutions. The Capped Call Transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to the Company’s common stock upon any conversion of the Convertible Senior Notes due 2029 and/or offset any cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of any converted Convertible Senior Notes due 2029, as the case may be. If, however, the market price per share of the Company’s common stock, as measured under the terms of the Capped Call Transactions, exceeds the cap price of the Capped Call Transactions, there would nevertheless be dilution and/or there would not be an offset of such cash payments, in each case, to the extent that such market price exceeds the cap price of the Capped Call Transactions.

Although the Company believes its reserves for its tax positions are reasonable, the final outcome of tax audits could be materially different, both favorably and unfavorably. It is reasonably possible that certain audits may conclude in the next 12 months and that the unrecognized tax benefits the Company has recorded in relation to these tax years may change compared to the liabilities recorded for these periods.
The Company is subject to certain lawsuits, claims and assessments that arise in the ordinary course of business. Additionally, the Company has been named as a defendant in lawsuits alleging personal injuries as a result of contact with asbestos products at various project sites. Management believes that any significant costs relating to these claims will be reimbursed by applicable insurance and, although there can be no assurance that these matters will be resolved favorably, management believes that the ultimate resolution of any of these claims will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. A liability is recorded when it is both probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. When using a range of loss estimate, the Company records the liability using the low end of the range unless some amount within the range of loss appears at that time to be a better estimate than any other amount in the range. The Company records a corresponding receivable for costs covered under its insurance policies. Management judgment is required to determine the outcome and the estimated amount of a loss related to such matters. Management believes that there are
In September 2015, a former Parsons employee filed an action in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Alabama against us as a qui tam relator on behalf of the United States (the “Relator”) alleging violation of the False Claims Act.

On July 1, 2024, a final judgment was filed with the clerk of the Superior Court of the State of California In and For the County of San Mateo with an award of damages in the total amount of approximately $
At this time, the Company is unable to determine the probability of the outcome of the litigation.
Federal government contracts are subject to audits, which are performed for the most part by the Defense Contract Audit Agency (“DCAA”). Audits by the DCAA and other agencies consist of reviews of our overhead rates, operating systems and cost proposals to ensure that we account for such costs in accordance with the Cost Accounting Standards (“CAS”). If the DCAA determines we have not accounted for such costs in accordance with the CAS, the DCAA may disallow these costs. The disallowance of such costs may result in a reduction of revenue and additional liability for the Company. Historically, the Company has not experienced any material disallowed costs as a result of government audits. However, the Company can provide no assurance that the DCAA or other government audits will not result in material disallowances for incurred costs in the future. All audits of costs incurred on work performed through 2018 have been closed, and years thereafter remain open.
Although there can be no assurance that these matters will be resolved favorably, management believes that their ultimate resolution will not have a material adverse impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
The Company’s principal retirement benefit plan is the Parsons Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”), a stock bonus plan, established in 1975 to cover eligible employees of the Company and certain affiliated companies. Contributions of treasury stock to the ESOP are made annually in amounts determined by the Company’s board of directors and are held in trust for the sole benefit of the participants.
A participant’s interest in their ESOP account is redeemable upon certain events, including retirement, death, termination due to permanent disability, a severe financial hardship following termination of employment, certain conflicts of interest following termination of employment, or the exercise of diversification rights. Distributions from the ESOP of participants’ interests are made in the Company’s common stock based on quoted prices of a share of the Company’s common stock on the NYSE. A participant will be able to sell such shares of common stock in the market, subject to any requirements of the federal securities laws.

The Company participates in joint ventures to bid, negotiate and complete specific projects. The Company is required to consolidate these joint ventures if it holds the majority voting interest or if the Company meets the criteria under the consolidation model, as described below.
The Company performs an analysis to determine whether its variable interests give the Company a controlling financial interest in a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) for which the Company is the primary beneficiary and should, therefore, be consolidated. Such analysis requires the Company to assess whether it has the power to direct the activities
22
of the VIE and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE.
The Company analyzed all of its joint ventures and classified them into two groups: (1) joint ventures that must be consolidated because they are either not VIEs and the Company holds the majority voting interest, or because they are VIEs and the Company is the primary beneficiary; and (2) joint ventures that do not need to be consolidated because they are either not VIEs and the Company holds a minority voting interest, or because they are VIEs and the Company is not the primary beneficiary.
Many of the Company’s joint venture agreements provide for capital calls to fund operations, as necessary; however, such funding is infrequent and is not anticipated to be material.
Letters of credit outstanding described in “Note 10 – Debt and Credit Facilities” that relate to project ventures are $
In the table below, aggregated financial information relating to the Company’s joint ventures is provided because their nature, risk and reward characteristics are similar. None of the Company’s current joint ventures that meet the characteristics of a VIE are individually significant to the consolidated financial statements.

Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
The Company accounts for its unconsolidated joint ventures using the equity method of accounting. Under this method, the Company recognizes its proportionate share of the net earnings of these joint ventures as “Equity in (losses) earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures” in the consolidated statements of income. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures is typically limited to the aggregate of the carrying value of the investment and future funding commitments.

The authoritative guidance on fair value measurement defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (referred to as an “exit price”). At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company’s financial instruments include cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and other liabilities. The fair values of these financial instruments approximate their carrying values due to their short-term maturities.
Investments measured at fair value are based on one or more of the following three valuation techniques:
In addition, the guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:
Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets and liabilities;
Level 2 Pricing inputs that include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the instrument; and
Level 3 Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurements and unobservable.
The methods described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Company believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.
Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a quarterly basis are as follows:

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period and income available to shareholders. Diluted EPS includes additional common shares that would have been outstanding if potential common shares with a dilutive effect had been issued using the if-converted method for Convertible Debt and the treasury stock method for all other instruments.
Under the treasury stock method, the weighted average number of shares outstanding is adjusted to reflect the dilutive effects of stock-based awards.
Under the if-converted method:

Repurchased shares of common stock are retired and included in “Repurchases of common stock” in cash flows from financing activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The primary purpose of the Company’s share repurchase program is to reduce the dilutive effect of shares issued under the Company’s ESOP and other stock benefit plans. The timing, amount and manner of share repurchases may depend upon market conditions and economic

circumstances, availability of investment opportunities, the availability and costs of financing, the market price of the Company's common stock, other uses of capital and other factors.

Overview
We are a leading provider of the integrated solutions and services required in today’s complex security environment and a world of digital transformation. We deliver innovative technology-driven solutions to customers worldwide. We have developed significant expertise and differentiated capabilities in key areas of cybersecurity, intelligence, missile defense, C5ISR, space, transportation, water/wastewater and environmental remediation. By combining our talented team of professionals and advanced technology, we solve complex technical challenges to enable a safer, smarter, more secure and more connected world.
We operate in two reporting segments, Federal Solutions and Critical Infrastructure. Our Federal Solutions business provides advanced technical solutions to the U.S. government. Our Critical Infrastructure business provides integrated engineering and management services for complex physical and digital infrastructure to state and local governments and large companies.
Our employees provide services pursuant to contracts that we are awarded by the customer and specific task orders relating to such contracts. These contracts are often multi-year, which provides us backlog and visibility on our revenues for future periods. Many of our contracts and task orders are subject to renewal and rebidding at the end of their term, and some are subject to the exercise of contract options and issuance of task orders by the applicable government
31
entity. In addition to focusing on increasing our revenues through increased contract awards and backlog, we focus our financial performance on margin expansion and cash flow.

The change in new awards from year to year is primarily due to ordinary course fluctuations in our business. The volume of contract awards can fluctuate in any given period due to win rate and the timing and size of the awards issued by our customers.
The decrease in awards for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the corresponding period last year was primarily due to significant awards for the three months ended June 30, 2023 in our Federal Solutions segment from the Federal Aviation Administration and the General Services Administration. The increase in awards for the six months ended June 30, 2024 when compared to the corresponding period last year was primarily due to significant option period awards from a customer in our Federal Solutions segment offset by the awards discussed above for the three months ended June 30, 2023.
Backlog
We define backlog to include the following two components:
Backlog includes (i) unissued task orders and unexercised option years, to the extent their issuance or exercise is probable, as well as (ii) contract awards, to the extent we believe contract execution and funding is probable.
32
The following table summarizes the value of our backlog at the respective dates presented below (in thousands):

Our backlog includes orders under contracts that in some cases extend for several years. For example, the U.S. Congress generally appropriates funds for our U.S. federal government customers on a yearly basis, even though their contracts with us may call for performance that is expected to take a number of years to complete. As a result, our federal contracts typically are only partially funded at any point during their term. All or some of the work to be performed under the contracts may remain unfunded unless and until the U.S. Congress makes subsequent appropriations and the procuring agency allocates funding to the contract.
We expect to recognize $3.8 billion of our funded backlog at June 30, 2024 as revenues in the following twelve months. However, our U.S. federal government customers may cancel their contracts with us at any time through a termination for convenience or may elect to not exercise option periods under such contracts. In the case of a termination for convenience, we would not receive anticipated future revenues, but would generally be permitted to recover all or a portion of our incurred costs and fees for work performed. See “Risk Factors—Risk Relating to Our Business—We may not realize the full value of our backlog, which may result in lower than expected revenue” in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
The changes in backlog in both the Federal Solutions and Critical Infrastructure segments were primarily from ordinary course fluctuations in our business and the impacts related to the Company’s awards discussed above.
Book-to-Bill
Book-to-bill is the ratio of total awards to total revenue recorded in the same period. Our management believes our book-to-bill ratio is a useful indicator of our potential future revenue growth in that it measures the rate at which we are generating new awards compared to the Company’s current revenue. To drive future revenue growth, our goal is for the level of awards in a given period to exceed the revenue booked. A book-to-bill ratio greater than 1.0 indicates that awards generated in a given period exceeded the revenue recognized in the same period, while a book-to-bill ratio of less than 1.0 indicates that awards generated in such period were less than the revenue recognized in such period. The following table sets forth the book-to-bill ratio for the periods presented below:

Factors and Trends Affecting Our Results of Operations
We believe that the financial performance of our business and our future success are dependent upon many factors, including those highlighted in this section. Our operating performance will depend upon many variables, including the success of our growth strategies and the timing and size of investments and expenditures that we choose to undertake, as well as market growth and other factors that are not within our control.
33
Government Spending
Changes in the relative mix of government spending and areas of spending growth, with shifts in priorities on homeland security, intelligence, defense-related programs, infrastructure and urbanization, and continued increased spending on technology and innovation, including cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, connected communities and physical infrastructure, could impact our business and results of operations. Cost-cutting and efficiency initiatives, current and future budget restrictions, spending cuts and other efforts to reduce government spending could cause our government customers to reduce or delay funding or invest appropriated funds on a less consistent basis or not at all, and demand for our solutions or services could diminish. Furthermore, any disruption in the functioning of government agencies, including as a result of government closures and shutdowns, could have a negative impact on our operations and cause us to lose revenue or incur additional costs due to, among other things, our inability to deploy our staff to customer locations or facilities as a result of such disruptions.
Federal Budget Uncertainty
There is uncertainty around the timing, extent, nature and effect of Congressional and other U.S. government actions to address budgetary constraints, caps on the discretionary budget for defense and non-defense departments and agencies, and the ability of Congress to determine how to allocate the available budget authority and pass appropriations bills to fund both U.S. government departments and agencies that are, and those that are not, subject to the caps. Additionally, budget deficits and the growing U.S. national debt increase pressure on the U.S. government to reduce federal spending across all federal agencies, with uncertainty about the size and timing of those reductions. Furthermore, delays in the completion of future U.S. government budgets could in the future delay procurement of the federal government services we provide. A reduction in the amount of, or delays, or cancellations of funding for, services that we are contracted to provide to the U.S. government as a result of any of these impacts or related initiatives, legislation or otherwise could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
Regulations
Increased audit, review, investigation and general scrutiny by government agencies of performance under government contracts and compliance with the terms of those contracts and applicable laws could affect our operating results. Negative publicity and increased scrutiny of government contractors in general, including us, relating to government expenditures for contractor services and incidents involving the mishandling of sensitive or classified information, as well as the increasingly complex requirements of the U.S. Department of Defense and the U.S. Intelligence Community, including those related to cybersecurity, could impact our ability to perform in the markets we serve.
Competitive Markets
The industries we operate in consist of a large number of enterprises ranging from small, niche-oriented companies to multi-billion-dollar corporations that serve many government and commercial customers. We compete on the basis of our technical expertise, technological innovation, our ability to deliver cost-effective multi-faceted services in a timely manner, our reputation and relationships with our customers, qualified and/or security-clearance personnel, and pricing. We believe that we are uniquely positioned to take advantage of the markets in which we operate because of our proven track record, long-term customer relationships, technology innovation, scalable and agile business offerings and world class talent. Our ability to effectively deliver on project engagements and successfully assist our customers affects our ability to win new contracts and drives our financial performance.
Acquired Operations
I.S. Engineers, LLC
On October 31, 2023, the Company entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement to acquire a 100% ownership interest in I.S. Engineers, LLC, a privately-owned company, for $12.2 million, subject to certain adjustments. Headquartered in Texas, I.S. Engineers, LLC provides full-service consulting specializing in transportation engineering, including roads and highways, and program management. The financial results of I.S. Engineers have been included in our consolidated results of operations from October 31, 2023 onward.
Sealing Technologies, Inc.
34
On August 23, 2023, the Company acquired a 100% ownership interest in Sealing Technologies, Inc (“SealingTech”), a privately-owned company, for $179.3 million and up to an additional $25 million in the event an earn out revenue target is exceeded. Headquartered in Maryland, SealingTech expands Parsons’ customer base across the Department of Defense and Intelligence Community, and further enhances the company’s capabilities in defensive cyber operations; integrated mission-solutions powered by artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML); edge computing and edge access modernization; critical infrastructure protection; and secure data management. The financial results of SealingTech have been included in our consolidated results of operations from August 23, 2023 onward.
IPKeys Power Partners
On April 13, 2023, the Company entered into a merger agreement to acquire a 100% ownership interest in IPKeys Power Partners (“IPKeys”), a privately-owned company, for $43.0 million. The merger brings IPKeys' established customer base, expanding Parsons' presence in two rapidly growing end markets: grid modernization and cyber resiliency for critical infrastructure. Headquartered in Tinton Falls, New Jersey, IPKeys is a trusted provider of enterprise software platform solutions that is actively delivering cyber and operational security to hundreds of electric, water, and gas utilities across North America. The financial results of IPKeys have been included in our consolidated results of operations from April 13, 2023 onward.
Seasonality
Our results may be affected by variances as a result of weather conditions and contract award seasonality impacts that we experience across our businesses. The latter issue is typically driven by the U.S. federal government fiscal year-end, September 30. While not certain, it is not uncommon for U.S. government agencies to award task orders or complete other contract actions in the weeks before the end of the U.S. federal government fiscal year in order to avoid the loss of unexpended U.S. federal government fiscal year funds. In addition, we have also historically experienced higher bid and proposal costs in the months leading up to the U.S. federal government fiscal year-end as we pursue new contract opportunities expected to be awarded early in the following U.S. federal government fiscal year as a result of funding appropriated for that U.S. federal government fiscal year. Furthermore, many U.S. state governments with fiscal years ending on June 30 tend to accelerate spending during their first quarter, when new funding becomes available. We may continue to experience this seasonality in future periods, and our results of operations may be affected by it.
Results of Operations
Revenue
Our revenue consists of both services provided by our employees and pass-through fees from subcontractors and other direct costs. Our Federal Solutions segment derives revenue primarily from the U.S. federal government and our Critical Infrastructure segment derives revenue primarily from government and commercial customers.
We enter into the following types of contracts with our customers:
Refer to “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” and “Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the notes to our consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 for a description of our policies on revenue recognition.

The table below presents the percentage of total revenue for each type of contract.

The amount of risk and potential reward varies under each type of contract. Under cost-plus contracts, there is limited financial risk, because we are reimbursed for all allowable costs up to a ceiling. However, profit margins on this type of contract tend to be lower than on time-and-materials and fixed-price contracts. Under time-and-materials contracts, we are reimbursed for the hours worked using the predetermined hourly rates for each labor category. In addition, we are typically reimbursed for other direct contract costs and expenses at cost. We assume financial risk on time-and-materials contracts because our labor costs may exceed the negotiated billing rates. Profit margins on well-managed time-and-materials contracts tend to be higher than profit margins on cost-plus contracts as long as we are able to staff those contracts with people who have an appropriate skill set. Under fixed-price contracts, we are required to deliver the objectives under the contract for a pre-determined price. Compared to time-and-materials and cost-plus contracts, fixed-price contracts generally offer higher profit margin opportunities because we receive the full benefit of any cost savings, but they also generally involve greater financial risk because we bear the risk of any cost overruns. In the aggregate, the contract type mix in our revenue for any given period will affect that period’s profitability. Over time, we have generally experienced a relatively stable contract mix.
The significant change in the contract mix for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the corresponding period last year relates to increased business volume from a significant fixed price contract in our Federal Solutions segment.
Our recognition of profit on long-term contracts requires the use of assumptions related to transaction price and total cost of completion. Estimates are continually evaluated as work progresses and are revised when necessary. When a change in estimated cost or transaction price is determined to have an impact on contract profit, we record a positive or negative adjustment to revenue.
Joint Ventures
We conduct a portion of our business through joint ventures or similar partnership arrangements. For the joint ventures we control, we consolidate all the revenues and expenses in our consolidated statements of income (including revenues and expenses attributable to noncontrolling interests). For the joint ventures we do not control, we recognize equity in (losses) earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures. Our revenues included amounts related to services we provided to our unconsolidated joint ventures for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023 of $50.5 million and $55.4 million, respectively, and $97.3 million and $106.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, respectively.
Operating costs and expenses
Operating costs and expenses primarily include direct costs of contracts and selling, general and administrative expenses. Costs associated with compensation-related expenses for our people and facilities, which includes ESOP contribution expenses, are the most significant component of our operating expenses. Total ESOP contribution expense for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023 was $15.1 million and $14.7 million, respectively, and $30.1 million and $29.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, respectively and is recorded in “Direct cost of contracts” and “Selling, general and administrative expenses.”
Direct costs of contracts consist of direct labor and associated fringe benefits, indirect overhead, subcontractor and materials (“pass-through costs”), travel expenses and other expenses incurred to perform on contracts.
Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) include salaries and wages and fringe benefits of our employees not performing work directly for customers, facility costs and other costs related to these indirect functions.
Other income and expenses
Other income and expenses primarily consist of interest income, interest expense and other income, net.
Interest income primarily consists of interest earned on U.S. government money market funds.
36
Interest expense consists of interest expense incurred under our Senior Notes, Convertible Senior Notes, and Credit Agreement.
Other income, net primarily consists of gain or loss on sale of assets, sublease income and transaction gain or loss related to movements in foreign currency exchange rates.

Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure of our operating performance used by management and our board of directors to assess our financial performance both on a segment and on a consolidated basis. We discuss Adjusted EBITDA because our management uses this measure for business planning purposes, including to manage the business against internal projected results of operations and measure the performance of the business generally. Adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a GAAP measure of our financial performance or liquidity and should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of financial performance or cash flows from operations as measures of liquidity, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) attributable to Parsons Corporation, adjusted to include net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests and to exclude interest expense (net of interest income), provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization and certain other items that we do not consider in our evaluation of ongoing operating performance. These other items include,
37
among other things, impairment of goodwill, intangible and other assets, interest and other expenses recognized on litigation matters, expenses incurred in connection with acquisitions and other non-recurring transaction costs and expenses related to our corporate restructuring initiatives. Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow for management’s discretionary use, as it does not reflect tax payments, debt service requirements, capital expenditures and certain other cash costs that may recur in the future, including, among other things, cash requirements for working capital needs and cash costs to replace assets being depreciated and amortized. Management compensates for these limitations by relying on our GAAP results in addition to using Adjusted EBITDA supplementally. Our measure of Adjusted EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled captions of other companies due to different methods of calculation.
The following table shows Adjusted EBITDA attributable to Parsons Corporation for each of our reportable segments and Adjusted EBITDA attributable to noncontrolling interests (in thousands):

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we paid $495.6 million in cash to repurchase $284.6 million aggregate principal amount of our Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 (the "Repurchase Transaction") concurrently with the offering of 2.625% Convertible Senior Notes due 2029. As a result of the Repurchase Transaction, we incurred a $211.0 million loss on debt extinguishment. The Repurchase Transaction is a partial repurchase of our Convertible Senior Notes due 2025. See “Note 10 – Debt and Credit Facilities,” for a further discussion of this transaction.
Interest income is related to interest earned on investments in government money funds. The increase in interest income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 is from higher cash balances held and increased interest rates compared to the corresponding periods last year.

Interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 is primarily due to debt related to our Convertible Senior Notes and Delayed Draw Term Loan. The increase in interest expense during the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the corresponding periods last year is primarily related to an increase in debt balances. The increase in interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the corresponding period last year is primarily related to an increase in debt balances and a $3.2 million charge from the acceleration of the amortization of debt issuance costs associated with the partial repurchase of the 0.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 discussed above.
The amounts in other income (expense), net for the three months ended June 30, 2024 are primarily related to transaction gains and losses on foreign currency transactions and sublease income and for the six months ended June 30, 2024 are primarily related to transaction gains and losses on foreign currency transactions, sublease income, and a change in the estimated fair value of contingent consideration.

The increase in tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the corresponding period last year was due primarily to the tax impact of an increase in pre-tax income, an increased valuation allowance against deferred tax assets, and an increase in executive compensation subject to Section 162(m), partially offset by the increase in the foreign-derived intangible income (FDII) deduction.

Segment Results
We evaluate segment operating performance using segment revenue and segment Adjusted EBITDA attributable to Parsons Corporation. Adjusted EBITDA attributable to Parsons Corporation is Adjusted EBITDA excluding Adjusted EBITDA attributable to noncontrolling interests. Presented above, in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, is a discussion of our definition of Adjusted EBITDA, how we use this metric, why we present this metric and the material limitations on the usefulness of this metric. See “Note 18—Segments Information” in the notes to the consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q for further discussion regarding our segment Adjusted EBITDA attributable to Parsons Corporation.
The following table shows Adjusted EBITDA attributable to Parsons Corporation for each of our reportable segments and Adjusted EBITDA attributable to noncontrolling interests:

The increase in Federal Solutions revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the corresponding period last year was primarily related to organic growth of 27% and $16.9 million from business acquisitions. Organic growth was due primarily from the ramp up of recent awards and growth on a significant contract. Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2023 included incentive fees on two contracts of approximately $20 million that did not reoccur for the three months ended June 30, 2024.
The increase in Federal Solutions Adjusted EBITDA attributable to Parsons Corporation for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the corresponding period last year was primarily due to the factors impacting revenue discussed above and a reduction in selling general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the corresponding period last year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We currently finance our operations and capital expenditures through a combination of internally generated cash from operations, our Convertible Senior Notes, Delayed Draw Term Loan and periodic borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility.
Generally, cash provided by operating activities has been adequate to fund our operations. Due to fluctuations in our cash flows and growth in our operations, it may be necessary from time to time in the future to borrow under our Credit Agreement to meet cash demands. Our management regularly monitors certain liquidity measures to monitor performance. We calculate our available liquidity as a sum of cash and cash equivalents from our consolidated balance sheet plus the amount available and unutilized on our Credit Agreement.
As of June 30, 2024, we believe we have adequate liquidity and capital resources to fund our operations, support our debt service and our ongoing acquisition strategy for at least the next twelve months based on the liquidity from cash provided by our operating activities, cash and cash equivalents on-hand and our borrowing capacity under our Revolving Credit Facility. Management continually monitors debt maturities to strategically execute optimal terms and ensure appropriate levels of working capital liquidity are maintained for the company.
43
Cash Flows
Cash received from customers, either from the payment of invoices for work performed or for advances in excess of revenue recognized, is our primary source of cash. We generally do not begin work on contracts until funding is appropriated by the customers. Billing timetables and payment terms on our contracts vary based on a number of factors, including whether the contract type is cost-plus, time-and-materials, or fixed-price. We generally bill and collect cash more frequently under cost-plus and time-and-materials contracts, as we are authorized to bill as the costs are incurred or work is performed. In contrast, we may be limited to bill certain fixed-price contracts only when specified milestones, including deliveries, are achieved. A number of our contracts may provide for performance-based payments, which allow us to bill and collect cash prior to completing the work.
Billed accounts receivable represents amounts billed to clients that have not been collected. Unbilled accounts receivable represents amounts where the Company has a present contractual right to bill but an invoice has not been issued to the customer at the period-end date.
Accounts receivable is the principal component of our working capital and includes billed and unbilled amounts. The total amount of our accounts receivable can vary significantly over time but is generally sensitive to revenue levels. We experience delays in collections from time to time from Middle East customers. Net days sales outstanding, which we refer to as Net DSO, is calculated by dividing (i) (accounts receivable plus contract assets) less (contract liabilities plus accounts payable) by (ii) average revenue per day (calculated by dividing trailing twelve months revenue by the number of days in that period). We focus on collecting outstanding receivables to reduce Net DSO and working capital. Net DSO was 60 days at June 30, 2024 down from 76 days at June 30, 2023. Our working capital (current assets less current liabilities) was $1.1 billion at June 30, 2024 and $726.6 million at December 31, 2023.
Our cash and cash equivalents increased by $255.5 million to $528.5 million at June 30, 2024 from $272.9 million at December 31, 2023.

Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities consists primarily of net income adjusted for noncash items, such as: equity in losses (earnings) of unconsolidated joint ventures, contributions of treasury stock, depreciation and amortization of property and equipment and intangible assets, and provisions for doubtful accounts. The timing between the conversion of our billed and unbilled receivables into cash from our customers and disbursements to our employees and vendors is the primary driver of changes in our working capital. Our operating cash flows are primarily affected by our ability to invoice and collect from our clients in a timely manner, our ability to manage our vendor payments and the overall profitability of our contracts.
Net cash provided by operating activities increased $83.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. The primary driver of the increase in cash flows provided by operating activities was an $142.8 million increase in net income after adjusting for non-cash items and debt extinguishment offset by an increase in cash outflows from our working capital accounts of $50.8 million (primarily from accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, contract liabilities, and income taxes partially offset by accounts receivable, contract assets and prepaid expenses and other assets).
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities consists primarily of cash flows associated with capital expenditures, joint ventures and business acquisitions.
Net cash used in investing activities increased $4.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. This change was primarily driven by a $45.5 million increase in investments in unconsolidated joint ventures offset by substantially no payments for acquisitions, net of cash acquired for
44
the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $42.3 million in payments for acquisitions, net of cash acquired for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Financing Activities
Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities is primarily associated with proceeds from debt, the repayment thereof, and distributions to noncontrolling interests.
Net cash provided by financing activities increased $261.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. The change in cash flows from financing activities is primarily driven by net cash inflows from our convertible bond transactions which generated $287.4 million in cash. See “Note 10 – Debt and Credit Facilities,” for a further discussion of these transactions.
Letters of Credit
We have in place several secondary bank credit lines for issuing letters of credit, principally for foreign contracts, to support performance and completion guarantees. Letters of credit commitments outstanding under these bank lines aggregated to $303.6 million as of June 30, 2024. Letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Agreement total $43.0 million as of June 30, 2024.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
See the information set forth in “Note 3—New Accounting Pronouncements” in the notes to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of June 30, 2024, we have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenue or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Interest Rate Risk
We are exposed to interest rate risks related to the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility and Delayed Draw
Term Loan.
As of June 30, 2024, there were no amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. Borrowings under the Credit Facility effective June 2021 bear interest at either the Term SOFR rate plus a margin between 1.0% and 1.625%, or a base rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus a margin of between 0% and 0.625%, both based on the leverage ratio of the Company at the end of each quarter. The rates on June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were both 6.7%.
As of June 30, 2024, there was $350.0 million outstanding under the Delayed Draw Term Loan.
Borrowings under the 2022 Delayed Draw Term Loan Agreement will bear interest at either an adjusted Term
SOFR benchmark rate plus a margin between 0.875% and 1.500% or a base rate plus a margin of between 0%
and 0.500% and will initially bear interest at the middle of this range. The Company will pay a ticking fee on
unused term loan commitments at a rate of 0.175% commencing with the date that is ninety (90) days after the
Closing Date. The interest rate at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were both 6.6%.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk resulting from our operations outside of the U.S. We limit exposure to foreign currency fluctuations in most of our contracts through provisions that require client payments in currencies corresponding to the currency in which costs are incurred. As a result of this natural hedge, we generally do not need to hedge foreign currency cash flows for contract work performed.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Control and Procedures
Our management carried out, as of June 30, 2024, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, an evaluation of 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, as of June 30, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that material information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During the second quarter of 2024, there were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
The information required by this Item 1 is included in “Note 12 – Contingencies” included in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements appearing under Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q which is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
There have been no material changes to our Risk Factors disclosed in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
On August 9, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the Company to acquire a number of shares of Common Stock having an aggregate market value of not greater than $100 million from time to time, commencing on August 12, 2021. The Board amended this authorization in August 2022 to remove the prior expiration date and grant executive leadership the discretion to determine the price for such share repurchases. The Board further amended this authorization in February 2024 to restore the repurchase capacity to $100 million and removed the $25 million quarterly cap on such repurchases.
At the time of the February 2024 authorization, the Company had repurchased shares with an aggregated market value (including fees) of $54.7 million. The aggregate market value of shares of Common Stock the Company is authorized to acquire, from both the August 2021 and February 2024 authorizations, is not greater than $154.7 million.
As of June 30, 2024, the Company has $90 million remaining under the stock repurchase program.
Repurchased shares of common stock are retired and included in “Repurchases of common stock” in cash flows from financing activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The primary purpose of the Company’s share repurchase program is to reduce the dilutive effect of shares issued under the Company’s ESOP and other stock benefit plans. The timing, amount and manner of share repurchases may depend upon market conditions and economic circumstances, availability of investment opportunities, the availability and costs of financing, the market price of the Company's common stock, other uses of capital and other factors.
As of June 30, 2024, the Company has spent $64.7 million (which includes commissions paid of $31.2 thousand)
repurchasing 1,557,529 shares of Common Stock (all of which have been retired) at an average price of $41.54 per share.
The following table presents the Company's purchases of equity securities for the three months ended June 30, 2024.
