    • Net earnings of $148 million or $3.70 diluted earnings per share
    • Third quarter free cash flow1 of $293 million

    NEWPORT NEWS, Va., Nov. 02, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HII (NYSE:HII) reported third quarter 2023 revenues of $2.8 billion, up 7.2% from the third quarter of 2022, driven primarily by growth at its Mission Technologies and Ingalls Shipbuilding segments.

    Operating income in the third quarter of 2023 was $172 million and operating margin was 6.1%, compared to $131 million and 5.0%, respectively, in the third quarter of 2022. The increases were primarily driven by higher segment operating income1 compared to the prior year, favorable changes to the operating FAS/CAS adjustment, and favorable non-current state income taxes.

    Segment operating income1 in the third quarter of 2023 was $187 million and segment operating margin1 was 6.6%, compared to $166 million and 6.3%, respectively, in the third quarter of 2022. The increases were primarily driven by higher volumes, favorable changes in contract estimates, and improved performance, partially offset by contract incentives on the Columbia-class (SSBN 826) submarine program in the prior year period.

    Net earnings in the quarter were $148 million, compared to $138 million in the third quarter of 2022. Diluted earnings per share in the quarter was $3.70, compared to $3.44 in the third quarter of 2022.

    Net cash provided by operating activities in the quarter was $335 million and free cash flow1 was $293 million, compared to cash used in operating activities of $19 million and free cash flow1 of negative $96 million in the third quarter of 2022.

    New contract awards in the third quarter of 2023 were $5.4 billion, bringing total backlog to approximately $49 billion as of September 30, 2023.

    “It was another outstanding quarter of growth across all three divisions. Our financial results demonstrate our commitment to achieving our goals of steady operational performance, execution on our existing contracts, and strong free cash flow generation,” said Chris Kastner, HII’s president and CEO. "We continue to support our customers' top national defense priorities by delivering quality platforms, technologies and solutions, thereby creating value for all of our stakeholders - our employees, customers, shareholders, suppliers and communities."

    Exhibit B: Non-GAAP Measures Definitions & Reconciliations

    We make reference to “segment operating income,” “segment operating margin,” “shipbuilding revenue,” “shipbuilding operating margin,” "Mission Technologies EBITDA," “Mission Technologies EBITDA margin” and “free cash flow.”

    We internally manage our operations by reference to segment operating income and segment operating margin, which are not recognized measures under GAAP. When analyzing our operating performance, investors should use segment operating income and segment operating margin in addition to, and not as alternatives for, operating income and operating margin or any other performance measure presented in accordance with GAAP. They are measures that we use to evaluate our core operating performance. We believe that segment operating income and segment operating margin reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations that, when viewed with our GAAP results, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. We believe these measures are used by investors and are a useful indicator to measure our performance. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of segment operating income and segment operating margin may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

    Shipbuilding revenue, shipbuilding operating margin, Mission Technologies EBITDA and Mission Technologies EBITDA margin are not measures recognized under GAAP. They are measures that we use to evaluate our core operating performance. When analyzing our operating performance, investors should use shipbuilding revenue, shipbuilding operating margin, Mission Technologies EBITDA and Mission Technologies EBITDA margin in addition to, and not as alternatives for, operating income and operating margin or any other performance measure presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that shipbuilding revenue, shipbuilding operating margin, Mission Technologies EBITDA and Mission Technologies EBITDA margin reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations that, when viewed with our GAAP results, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. We believe these measures are used by investors and are a useful indicator to measure our performance. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of shipbuilding revenue, shipbuilding operating margin, Mission Technologies EBITDA and Mission Technologies EBITDA margin may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

    Free cash flow is not a measure recognized under GAAP. Free cash flow has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for net earnings as a measure of our performance or net cash provided or used by operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. We believe free cash flow is an important measure for our investors because it provides them insight into our current and period-to-period performance and our ability to generate cash from continuing operations. We also use free cash flow as a key operating metric in assessing the performance of our business and as a key performance measure in evaluating management performance and determining incentive compensation. Free cash flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

    In reliance upon Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K, reconciliations of forward-looking GAAP and non-GAAP measures are not provided because of the unreasonable effort associated with providing such reconciliations due to the variability in the occurrence and the amounts of certain components of GAAP and non-GAAP measures. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to future results.

    Segment operating income is defined as operating income for the relevant segment(s) before the Operating FAS/CAS Adjustment and non-current state income taxes.

    Segment operating margin is defined as segment operating income as a percentage of sales and service revenues.

    Shipbuilding revenue is defined as the combined sales and service revenues from our Newport News Shipbuilding segment and Ingalls Shipbuilding segment.

    Shipbuilding operating margin is defined as the combined segment operating income of our Newport News Shipbuilding segment and Ingalls Shipbuilding segment as a percentage of shipbuilding revenue.

    Mission Technologies EBITDA is defined as Mission Technologies segment operating income before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization.

    Mission Technologies EBITDA margin is defined as Mission Technologies EBITDA as a percentage of Mission Technologies revenues.

    Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less capital expenditures net of related grant proceeds.

    Operating FAS/CAS Adjustment is defined as the difference between the service cost component of our pension and other postretirement expense determined in accordance with GAAP (FAS) and our pension and other postretirement expense under U.S. Cost Accounting Standards (CAS).

    Non-current state income taxes are defined as deferred state income taxes, which reflect the change in deferred state tax assets and liabilities and the tax expense or benefit associated with changes in state uncertain tax positions in the relevant period. These amounts are recorded within operating income. Current period state income tax expense is charged to contract costs and included in cost of sales and service revenues in segment operating income.

    Certain of the financial measures we present are adjusted for the Operating FAS/CAS Adjustment and non-current state income taxes to reflect the company’s performance based upon the pension costs and state tax expense charged to our contracts under CAS. We use these adjusted measures as internal measures of operating performance and for performance-based compensation decisions.
