cash plus (ii) 58.2 million ordinary shares of Worley, subject to adjustments for changes in working capital and certain other items (the “ECR sale”). As a result of the ECR sale, substantially all ECR-related assets and liabilities were sold (the "Disposal Group"). We determined that the Disposal Group should be reported as discontinued operations in accordance with ASC 210-05, Discontinued Operations because their disposal represents a strategic shift that had a major effect on our operations and financial results. As such, the financial results of the ECR business are reflected in our unaudited Consolidated Statements of Earnings as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Additionally, assets and liabilities of the Disposal Group were reflected as held-for-sale in the Consolidated Balance Sheets through December 27, 2019. As of March 27,October 2, 2020, all of the ECR business to be sold under the terms of the ECR sale hashad been conveyed to Worley and as such, no0 amounts remain held for sale. For further discussion, see Note 7-17- Sale of Energy, Chemicals and Resources ("ECR") Business to the consolidated financial statements.
2.    Use of Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to employ estimates and make assumptions that affect the reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities, the revenues and expenses reported for the periods covered by the accompanying consolidated financial statements, and certain amounts disclosed in these Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Although such estimates and assumptions are based on management’s most recent assessment of the underlying facts and circumstances utilizing the most current information available and past experience including considerations for potential impacts of the continuing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, actual results could differ significantly from those estimates and assumptions. Our estimates, judgments, and assumptions are evaluated periodically and adjusted accordingly.
Please refer to Note 2- Significant Accounting Policies of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 20192020 Form 10-K for a discussion of other significant estimates and assumptions affecting our consolidated financial statements.
3.    Fair Value and Fair Value Measurements
Certain amounts included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented at “fair value.” Fair value is defined as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the date fair value is determined (the “measurement date”). When determining fair value, we consider the principal or most advantageous market in which we would transact, and we consider only those assumptions we believe a typical market participant would consider when pricing an asset or liability. In measuring fair value, we use the following inputs in the order of priority indicated:
Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, such as (i) quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; (ii) quoted prices in markets that have insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (e.g., less active markets); and (iii) model-driven valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated with, observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the fair value measurement.
Please refer to Note 2- Significant Accounting Policies of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 20192020 Form 10-K for a more complete discussion of the various items within the consolidated financial statements measured at fair value and the methods used to determine fair value. Please also refer to Note 7-17- Sale of Energy, Chemicals and Resources for discussion regarding the Company's investment in Worley ordinary shares.shares and Note 19- Commitments and Contingencies and Derivative Financial Instruments for discussion regarding the Company's derivative instruments.
The net carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and payables and short-term debt approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. See Note 12- Borrowings for a discussion of the fair value of long-term debt.

The purchase price allocation is based upon preliminary information and is subject to change when additional information is obtained. Goodwill recognized results from a substantial assembled workforce, which does not qualify for separate recognition, as well as expected future synergies from combining operations. Goodwill of $136.0 million is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The Company will be completing its final assessment of the fair values of the opening balance sheet for this acquisition during the third fiscal quarter of 2020 which could result in adjustments to certain assets and liabilities, including the residual amount allocated to goodwill.

The share repurchase programs do not obligate the Company to purchase any shares. Share repurchases may be executed through various means including, without limitation, accelerated share repurchases, open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions, purchases pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 plans or otherwise. The authorization for the share repurchase programs may be terminated, increased or decreased by the Company’s Board of Directors in its discretion at any time. 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, currency fluctuations, the market price of the Company's common stock, other uses of capital and other factors.

7.  Sale of Energy, Chemicals and Resources ("ECR") Business
On April 26, 2019, Jacobs completed the sale of its ECR business to Worley for a purchase price of $3.4 billion consisting of (i) $2.8 billion in cash plus (ii) 58.2 million ordinary shares of Worley, subject to adjustments for changes in working capital and certain other items (the “ECR sale”). The stock and asset purchase agreement for the ECR sale contained a lock-up on our ability to sell the Worley shares received in the transaction, which expired in the first fiscal quarter of 2020.
Gain on Sale and Deferred Gain
As a result of the ECR sale, the Company recognized a pre-tax gain of $1.0 billion, $935.1 million of which was recognized in fiscal 2019 and $81.9 million of which is included in Net Earnings of the Group from Discontinued Operations on the consolidated statement of earnings for the six months ended March 27, 2020, which is further discussed below.
Upon closing the ECR sale, the Company retained a noncontrolling interest (with significant influence) in People & Places Solutions ("P&PS")-related activities in one international legal entity acquired by Worley. The fair value of the Company’s retained interest in the net assets and liabilities of this entity was estimated at $33.0 million and recorded at closing. For another international legal entity, the closing and transfer of ECR-related assets to Worley were set to occur at a future date. At the time of the ECR sale, the Company allocated proceeds received to these deferred closing items on a relative fair value basis and recognized a deferred gain of $34.4 million. During the second fiscal quarter of 2020, the delayed transfer of the ECR-related assets and liabilities of these two international entities occurred, and as a result, all previously deferred gain amounts were recognized.
In addition to consideration received for the sale of the business, the proceeds received included advanced consideration for the Company to deliver IT application and related hardware assets at a future date (“IT Migration Date”) to Worley upon completion of the interim transition services, described further below. This deliverable of IT assets was

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)
considered to be a separate element of the ECR business sale transaction, and accordingly, we allocated a portion of the proceeds received of $95.3 million on a relative fair value basis to this separate deliverable and recognized deferred income. Upon completion and acceptance of this deliverable by Worley in December 2019, the deferred proceeds were recognized in income, along with expenses associated with any costs incurred and deferred by the Company for this deliverable.
Investment in Worley Stock
As discussed above, the Company received 58.2 million in ordinary shares of Worley. Pursuant to the purchase agreement for the ECR sale, 51.4 million of the shares were considered "restricted" during a lock-up period beginning April 26, 2019 and ending in December 2019. During the lock-up period the Company could not, without Worley's consent, directly or indirectly dispose of the "restricted" shares. The remaining 6.8 million shares not considered "restricted" were sold in the prior year, netting a loss of $4.9 million, which was recognized in miscellaneous income (expense), net. Dividend income and unrealized gains and losses on changes in fair value of Worley shares are recognized in miscellaneous income (expense), net in continuing operations.
The Company's investment in Worley is measured at fair value through net income as it is an equity investment with a readily determinable fair value based on quoted market prices. The 51.4 million ordinary shares that are no longer considered "restricted" are recorded within prepaid expenses and other in the Company's consolidated balance sheets at their estimated fair value, which is 8.$180.9 million as of March 27, 2020. For the three and six month periods ended March 27, 2020, the Company recognized $375.5 million and $270.2 million, respectively in losses associated with share price and currency changes on this investment as well as dividends of $7.7 million. Quoted market prices are available for these securities in an active market and therefore categorized as a Level 1 input.
Transition Service Agreement
Upon closing of the ECR sale, the Company entered into a Transition Services Agreement (the "TSA") with Worley pursuant to which the Company, on an interim basis, provided various services to Worley, including executive consultation, corporate, information technology, and project services. The initial term of the TSA began immediately following closing of the ECR sale on April 26, 2019 and expired in April 2020, although the parties mutually agreed to extend certain of the services for additional time periods beyond the initial term. Pursuant to the terms of the TSA, the Company received payments for the interim services which approximate costs incurred to perform the services. The Company has recognized costs recorded in SG&A expense incurred to perform the TSA, offset by $14.2 million in TSA related income for such services that is reported in miscellaneous income (expense) for the six months ended March 27, 2020 before inclusion of certain incremental outside service support costs agreed to be shared equally by the parties.
Discontinued Operations
As a result of the ECR sale, substantially all ECR-related assets and liabilities were sold (the "Disposal Group"). We determined that the Disposal Group should be reported as discontinued operations in accordance with ASC 210-05, Discontinued Operations because their disposal represent a strategic shift that had a major effect on our operations and financial results. As such, the financial results of the ECR business are reflected in our unaudited Consolidated Statements of Earnings as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Additionally, assets and liabilities of the ECR business were reflected as held-for-sale in the Consolidated Balance Sheets through December 27, 2019. As of the quarter ended March 27, 2020, all of the ECR business under the terms of the sale has been conveyed to Worley and as such, no amounts remain held for sale. Any assets and liabilities of the ECR business that were retained by the Company pursuant to the stock and asset purchase agreement with Worley are included in discontinued operations.

Selling, general and administrative expenses includes an offsetting insurance recovery of $50.0 million for the six months ended March 27, 2020 recorded in connection with the Nui Phao ("NPMC") legal matter described in Note 19- Commitments and Contingencies. Additionally, the three and six month periods ended March 29, 2019 include a charge for the award and recovery of costs, estimated related interest and attorneys' fees related to the NPMC legal matter. The gain on sale of the ECR business of $20.0 million for the three months ended March 27, 2020 primarily relates to the recognition of the deferred gain for the delayed transfer of the ECR-related assets and liabilities of the two international entities discussed above and adjustments for working capital and certain other items in connection with the ECR sale. For the six months ended March 27, 2020, the gain on sale of $81.9 million also includes additional income for the release of a deferred gain upon achievement of the IT Migration Date described above in connection with the delivery to Worley of certain IT application and hardware assets related to the ECR business, as well as adjustments to the purchase price for working capital and certain other items in connection with the ECR sale that have occurred through the first six months of fiscal 2020. The Company’s effective tax rate from discontinued operations for the three months ended March 27, 2020 was (63.2)%. The $11.6 million tax benefit for the current quarter was mainly driven by $9 million of tax benefit attributable to the reallocation of proceeds from the sale of ECR and $5.0 million of tax benefit related to certain non-taxable gains in local jurisdictions.
8.  Segment Information
The Company's 2 operating segments and global lines of business ("LOBs") are as follows: Critical Mission Solutions ("CMS") and People & Places Solutions ("P&PS"); with the previous Energy, Chemicals and Resources ("ECR") LOB reported as discontinued operations. For further information on ECR, refer to Note 7- Sale of Energy, Chemicals and Resources ("ECR") Business.
The Company’s Chair and Chief Executive Officer is the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) and can evaluate the performance of each of these segments and make appropriate resource allocations among each of the segments. For purposes of the Company’s goodwill impairment testing, it has been determined that the Company’s operating segments are also its reporting units based on management’s conclusion that the components comprisingeach of its operating segments share similar economic characteristics and meet the aggregation criteria for reporting units in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)
Under this organization, the sales function is managed by LOB, and accordingly, the associated cost is embedded in the segments and reported to the respective head of each LOB. In addition, a portion of the costs of other support functions (e.g., finance, legal, human resources, and information technology) is allocated to each LOB using methodologies which, we believe, effectively attribute the cost of these support functions to the revenue generating activities of the Company on a rational basis. The cost of the Company’s cash incentive plan, the Leadership Performance Plan ("LPP"), formerly named the Management Incentive Plan, and the expense associated with the Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. 1999 Stock Incentive Plan (“1999 SIP”) have likewise been charged to the LOBs except for those amounts determined to relate to the business as a whole (which amounts remain in other corporate expenses).
Financial information for each LOB is reviewed by the CODM to assess performance and make decisions regarding the allocation of resources. The Company generally does not track assets by LOB, nor does it provide such information to the CODM.
The CODM evaluates the operating performance of our LOBs using segment operating profit, which is defined as margin less “corporate charges” (e.g., the allocated amounts described above). The Company incurs certain Selling, General and Administrative costs (“SG&A”) that relate to its business as a whole which are not allocated to the LOBs.
The following tables present total revenues and segment operating profit from continuing operations for each reportable segment (in thousands) and includes a reconciliation of segment operating profit to total U.S. GAAP operating profit by including certain corporate-level expenses, Restructuring and other charges and transaction and integration costs (in thousands).

Amounts billed, net consist of amounts invoiced to clients in accordance with the terms of our client contracts and are shown net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. We anticipate that substantially all of such billed amounts will be collected over the next twelve months.
Unbilled receivables and other, which represent an unconditional right to payment subject only to the passage of time, are reclassified to amounts billed when they are billed under the terms of the contract. Prior to adoption of ASC 606, receivables related to contractual milestones or achievement of performance-based targets were included in unbilled receivables. These are now included in contract assets. We anticipate that substantially all of such unbilled amounts will be billed and collected over the next twelve months.
Contract assets represent unbilled amounts where the right to payment is subject to more than merely the passage of time and includes performance-based incentives and services provided ahead of agreed contractual milestones. Contract assets are transferred to unbilled receivables when the right to consideration becomes unconditional and are transferred to amounts billed upon invoicing. The increase in contract assets was a result of normal business activity and not materially impacted by any other factors.

10.    Income Taxes
The Company’s effective tax rates from continuing operations for the three months ended April 2, 2021 and March 27, 2020 were 18.5% and 34.6%, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate from continuing operations for the three months ended April 2, 2021 was lower than the corresponding rate in the prior period primarily due to a tax expense of $15.0 million attributable to a nondeductible compensation related charge associated with the PA Consulting acquisition, resulting in a decrease in tax rate as a consequence of an overall pre-tax loss position. The current period expense was offset by a $7.7 million benefit related to a change in the Company’s assertion about indefinite reinvestment of certain foreign unremitted earnings in India. Also, for the three months ended March 27, 2020, the effective tax rate was impacted by amended returns for foreign tax credits and research and development credits, an India withholding tax rate change and an Internal Revenue Code section 179D energy credit. The Company is continuing to accrue taxes related to all other foreign earnings, except for certain entities in Canada.
The Company's effective tax rates from continuing operations for the six months ended April 2, 2021 and March 27, 2020 were 27.4% and 9.5%, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate from continuing operations for the six months ended April 2, 2021 was higher than the corresponding rate in the prior period primarily due to the current PA Consulting compensation expense charge mentioned above and $7.4 million attributable to US foreign inclusions. Also contributing to the higher year to date rate is the absence of prior year favorable benefit of $5.8 million from amended returns for foreign tax credits and research and development credits, a $4.1 million benefit related to an India withholding tax rate change and $7.0 million benefit from an Internal Revenue Code section 179D energy credit for the period ending March 27, 2020. The current year increase was further offset by a $3.6 million excess tax benefit attributable to stock compensation and a $12.1 million benefit related to a change in the Company’s assertion about indefinite reinvestment of certain foreign unremitted earnings in Canada and India.
See Note 17 - Sale of Energy, Chemicals and Resources ("ECR") Business for further information on the Company's discontinued operations reporting for the sale of the ECR business.
The amount of income taxes the Company pays is subject to ongoing audits by tax jurisdictions around the world. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by tax authorities throughout the world, including such major jurisdictions as Australia, Canada, India, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and the United States. Our estimate of the potential outcome of any uncertain tax issue is subject to our assessment of the relevant risks, facts, and circumstances existing at the time. The Company believes that it has adequately provided for reasonably foreseeable outcomes related to these matters. However, future results may include favorable or unfavorable adjustments to our estimated tax liabilities in the period the assessments are made or resolved, which may impact our effective tax rate.

11.    Joint Ventures, VIEs and VIEsOther Investments
As is common to the industry, weWe execute certain contracts jointly with third parties through various forms of joint ventures. Although the joint ventures own and hold the contracts with the clients, the services required by the contracts are typically performed by us and our joint venture partners, or by other subcontractors under subcontracting agreements with the joint ventures. Many of these joint ventures are formed for a specific project. The assets of our joint ventures generally consist almost entirely of cash and receivables (representing amounts due from clients), and the liabilities of our joint ventures generally consist almost entirely of amounts due to the joint venture partners (for services provided by the partners to the joint ventures under their individual subcontracts) and other subcontractors. Many of the joint ventures are deemed to be variable interest entities (“VIE”) because they lack sufficient equity to finance the activities of the joint venture.
The assets of a joint venture are restricted for use to the obligations of the particular joint venture and are not available for general operations of the Company. Our risk of loss on these arrangements is usually shared with our partners. The liability of each partner is usually joint and several, which means that each partner may become liable for the entire risk of loss on the project. Furthermore, on some of our projects, the Company has granted guarantees whichthat may encumber both our contracting subsidiary company and the Company for the entire risk of loss on the project. The Company is unable to estimate the maximum potential amount of future payments that we could be required to make under outstanding performance guarantees related to joint venture projects due to a number of factors, including but not limited to, the nature and extent of any contractual defaults by our joint venture partners, resource availability, potential performance delays caused by the defaults, the location of the projects, and the terms of the related contracts. Refer to Note 19 - Commitments and Contingencies and Derivative Financial Instruments, for further discussion relating to performance guarantees.

The remaining 35% interest is held by PA Consulting employees. PA Consulting is accounted for as a consolidated subsidiary under U.S. GAAP accounting rules. See Note 15- PA Consulting Business Combination for more discussion on the acquisition.
Unconsolidated joint ventures are accounted for under proportionate consolidation or the equity method. Proportionate consolidation is used for joint ventures that include unincorporated legal entities and activities of the joint venture that are construction-related. For those joint ventures accounted for under proportionate consolidation, only the Company’s pro rata share of assets, liabilities, revenue, and costs are included in the Company’s balance sheet and results of operations. For the proportionate consolidated VIEs, the carrying value of assets and liabilities was $96.0$41.6 million and $87.5$44.9 million, respectively, as of March 27, 2020, respectively,April 2, 2021, and $61.1$64.1 million and $63.7$63.0 million, respectively, as of September 27, 2019, respectively.October 2, 2020. For those joint ventures accounted for under the equity method, the Company's investment balances for the joint venture are included in Other Noncurrent Assets: Miscellaneous on the balance sheet and the Company’s pro rata share of net income is included in revenue. In limited cases, there are basis differences between the equity in the joint venture and the Company's investment created when the Company purchased its share of the joint venture. These basis differences are amortized based on an internal allocation to underlying net assets, excluding allocations to goodwill. As of March 27, 2020,April 2, 2021, the Company’s equity method investments exceeded its share of venture net assets by $70.3$35.9 million. Our investments in equity method joint ventures on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 27,April 2, 2021 and October 2, 2020 were $131.4 million and September 27, 2019 were $166.9 million and $157.9$161.3 million, respectively.

As of October 2, 2020, AWE ML was under a contractual operating arrangement with the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) with multiple years remaining under the arrangement. Subsequent to year end, on November 2, 2020, the MoD unexpectedly announced plans to change its current operating agreements with AWE ML that would result in the early termination of the current contract in 2021. During the six months ended April 2, 2021, the Company recorded other-than-temporary impairments on its investment in AWE ML in the amount of $33.2 million, which is included in miscellaneous income (expense), net in the consolidated statement of earnings.
11. Restructuring and Other Charges
During fiscal 2019 and fiscalAt October 2, 2020, the Company implemented certain restructuringheld a cost method investment in C3.ai, Inc. ("C3") of approximately $2.5 million. On December 9, 2020, C3 completed an initial public offering and pre-separation initiatives associatedas a result the Company now carries its investment in C3 at fair value, with mark to market changes reflected in net income as it is an investment in equity securities with a readily determinable fair value based on quoted market prices. In connection with the ECR sale,IPO, the KeyW acquisition,Company became subject to a 180-day lock-up period, which restricts sales of the acquisitionshares, subject to certain conditions that permit partial share sales based on C3's share performance during the lock-up period. The Company sold 153,374 shares in the current quarter, the maximum allowable shares under the lock-up period discussed above, netting a realized gain of John Wood Group's nuclear business$12.5 million. The fair value of the Company's investment at April 2, 2021 was $38.0 million and other related cost reduction initiatives. The restructuring activitiesis included in investment in equity securities in the consolidated balance sheet. Dividend income and related costs were comprised mainlyunrealized gains and losses on changes in fair value and as a result of separationsales of C3 shares are recognized in miscellaneous income (expense), net in the consolidated statement of earnings. Quoted market prices are available for these securities in an active market, however a discount is applied to account for the lock-up period restrictions and lease abandonment programs, whiletherefore the pre-separation activities and costs were mainly related to the engagement of consulting services and internal personnel and other related costs dedicated to the Company’s ECR-business separation.investment is categorized as a Level 2 input.

During the fourth fiscal quarter of 2017, the Company implemented certain restructuring and pre-integration initiatives associated with the impending acquisition of CH2M, which closed on December 15, 2017 (the "CH2M acquisition"). The restructuring activities and related costs were comprised mainly of severance and lease abandonment programs, while the pre-integration activities and costs were mainly related to the engagement of consulting services and internal personnel and other related costs dedicated to the Company’s acquisition integration management efforts. Following the closing of the CH2M acquisition, these activities continued through the second fiscal quarter of 2020 and continue to be comprised mainly of severance, lease abandonment, IT related, consulting and other professional services as well as internal personnel costs.
The activities of the above-mentioned programs are expected to be substantially completed before the end of fiscal 2020.
Collectively, the above-mentioned restructuring activities are referred to as “Restructuring and other charges.”

13.    Revenue Accounting for Contracts
Disaggregation of Revenues
Our revenues are principally derived from contracts to provide a diverse range of technical, professional, and construction services to a large number of industrial, commercial, and governmental clients. We provide a broad range of engineering, design, and architectural services; construction and construction management services; operations and maintenance services; and process, scientific, and systems consulting services. We provide our services through offices and subsidiaries located primarily in North America, South America, Europe, the Middle East, India, Australia, Africa, and Asia. We provide our services under cost-reimbursable and fixed-price contracts. Our contracts are with many different customers in numerous industries. Refer to Note 8- Segment Information for additional information on how we disaggregate our revenues by reportable segment.

Contract liabilities represent amounts billed to clients in excess of revenue recognized to date. Revenue recognized for the three and six months ended March 27, 2020 that was included in the contract liability balance on September 27, 2019 was $66.4 million and $310.5 million, respectively. Revenue recognized for the three and six months ended March 29, 2019 that was included in the contract liability balance on September 28, 2018 was $200.2 million and $410.0 million, respectively.

The Company had approximately $13.0 billion in remaining performance obligations as of March 27, 2020. The Company expects to recognize approximately 49% of our remaining performance obligations into revenue within the next twelve months and the remaining 51% thereafter.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)
Although remaining performance obligations reflect business that is considered to be firm, cancellations, scope adjustments, foreign currency exchange fluctuations or deferrals may occur that impact their volume or the expected timing of their recognition. Remaining performance obligations are adjusted to reflect any known project cancellations, revisions to project scope and cost, foreign currency exchange fluctuations and project deferrals, as appropriate.
14. Leases
On September 28, 2019 the Company adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases ("ASC 842"), along with ASU 2018-01, ASU 2018-10, ASU 2018-11, ASU 2018-20 and ASU 2019-01, which amended and clarified the related guidance. ASC 842 requires lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for most leases. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at contract inception. A lease exists when a contract conveys to the customer the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The definition of a lease embodies two conditions: (1) there is an identified asset in the contract, and (2) the customer has the right to control the use of the identified asset. Lessees are required to classify leases as either finance or operating leases. This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
ASC 842 provided several optional practical expedients for use in transition to and ongoing application of ASC 842. The Company elected to utilize the package of practical expedients in ASC 842-10-65-1(f) that, upon adoption of ASC 842, allows entities to (1) not reassess whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (2) retain the classification of leases (e.g., operating or finance lease) existing as of the date of adoption and (3) not reassess initial direct costs for any existing leases. The Company did not elect the transition practical expedient pertaining to the use of hindsight. The Company elected to utilize the practical expedient in ASC 842-10-15-37 in which the Company has chosen to account for each separate lease component of a contract and its associated non-lease components as a single lease component.
The Company adopted ASC 842 using the modified retrospective method, and accordingly, the new guidance was applied to leases that existed as of September 28, 2019 (the date of initial application) without adjusting the comparative periods presented. As a result, as of September 28, 2019, the Company has recorded total right-of-use ("ROU") assets of $767.0 million, which is comprised of approximately $82.3 million in reclassifications of previously recorded lease incentives and deferred rent, offset by $141.4 million in restructured lease cease-use liability. Additionally, the Company has recorded total current lease liabilities of $180.7 million, and total noncurrent lease liabilities of $810.1 million. The adoption of ASC 842 did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or any impact on the Company’s cash flows.
The Company’s right-of use assets and lease liabilities relate to real estate, project assets used in connection with long-term construction contracts, IT assets and vehicles. The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms of one year to thirteen years. The Company’s lease obligations are primarily for the use of office space and are primarily operating leases. Certain of the Company’s leases contain renewal, extension, or termination options. The Company assesses each option on an individual basis and will only include options reasonably certain of exercise in the lease term. The Company generally considers the base term to be the term provided in the contract. None of the Company’s lease agreements contain material options to purchase the lease property, material residual value guarantees, or material restrictions or covenants.covenants
Long-term project asset and vehicle leases (leases with terms greater than twelve months), along with all real estate and IT asset leases, are recorded on the consolidated balance sheet at the present value of the minimum lease payments not yet paid.paid, net of impairments taken. Because the Company primarily acts as a lessee and the rates implicit in its leases are not readily determinable, the Company generally uses its incremental borrowing rate on the lease

commencement date to calculate the present value of future lease payments. Certain leases include payments that are based solely on an index or rate. These variable lease payments are included in the calculation of the ROUright-of-use ("ROU") asset and lease liability and are initially measured using the index or rate at the lease commencement date. Other variable lease payments, such as payments based on use and for property taxes, insurance, or common area maintenance that are based on actual assessments are excluded from the ROU asset and lease liability and are expensed as incurred. In addition to the present value of the future lease payments, the calculation of the ROU asset also includes any deferred rent, lease pre-payments and initial direct costs of obtaining the lease, such as commissions.
Certain lease contracts contain nonlease components such as maintenance and utilities. The Company has made an accounting policy election, as allowed under ASC 842-10-15-37 and discussed above, to capitalize both the lease component and nonlease components of its contracts as a single lease component for all of its right-of-use assets.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)
Short-term project asset and vehicle leases (project asset and vehicle leases with an initial term of twelve months or less or leases that are cancellable by the lessee and lessor without significant penalties) are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheet and are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The majority of the Company’s short-term leases relate to equipment used on construction projects. These leases are entered into at agreed upon hourly, daily, weekly or monthly rental rates for an unspecified duration and typically have a termination for convenience provision. Such equipment leases are considered short-term in nature unless it is reasonably certain that the equipment will be leased for a term greater than twelve months.

15. PA Consulting Business Combination
Deal Summary, Opening Balance Sheet and Pro Forma Financial Information
On March 2, 2021, Jacobs completed the strategic investment of a 65% interest in PA Consulting, a UK-based leading innovation and transformation consulting firm. The total consideration paid by the Company was $1.7 billion, funded through cash on hand, a new term loan and draws on the Company's existing revolver. Further, in connection with the transaction, an additional $266.6 million had not yet been distributed at April 2, 2021 due to continuing employment requirements. Consequently, this amount represents compensation expense incurred related to the acquisition that is expected to be paid in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, and is reflected in selling, general and administrative expense on the consolidated income statement for the current fiscal quarter. The remaining 35% interest is held by PA Consulting employees, whose redeemable noncontrolling interests had a fair value of $581.1 million on the closing date. PA Consulting is accounted for as a consolidated subsidiary and as a separate operating segment under U.S. GAAP accounting rules. See Note 12- Borrowings for more discussion on the financing for the transaction. The following summarizes the fair values of PA Consulting's assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date (in millions):
Assets
Cash and cash equivalents$134.9 
Receivables165.0 
Property, equipment and improvements, net39.2

Other long term liabilities245.9 
Total Liabilities$595.7
Redeemable Noncontrolling interests581.1 
Net assets acquired$1,701.9 

The purchase price allocation is based upon preliminary information and is subject to change when additional information is obtained. Goodwill recognized results from a substantial assembled workforce, which does not qualify for separate recognition, as well as expected future economic benefits. None of the goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The Company has not completed its final assessment of the fair values of PA Consulting's assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The final purchase price allocation could result in adjustments to certain assets and liabilities, including the residual amount allocated to goodwill. 
Identifiable intangibles are customer relationships, contracts and backlog and trade name and have estimated lives ranging from 9 to 20 years (weighted average life of approximately 12 years).
Fair value measurements relating to PA Consulting are made primarily using Level 3 inputs including discounted cash flow techniques. Fair value is estimated using inputs primarily from the income approach, which include the use of both the multiple period excess earnings method and the relief from royalties method. The significant assumptions used in estimating fair value include (i) the estimated life the asset will contribute to cash flows, such as attrition rate of customers or remaining contractual terms, (ii) profitability and (iii) the estimated discount rate that reflects the level of risk associated with receiving future cash flows. Other personal property assets, such as buildings, furniture, fixtures and equipment, are valued using the cost approach, which is based on estimates of replacement cost.

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest
In connection with the PA Consulting investment, the Company recorded redeemable noncontrolling interests of approximately $581.1 million, representing the interest holders' 35% equity interest in the form of common and preferred shares of PA Consulting, with substantially all of the value associated with these interests allocable to the preferred shares. The preferred shares are entitled to a cumulative compounding 12% dividend based on the outstanding preferred share subscription price. These interest holders have certain option rights to put the common and preferred share interests back to the Company at fair value. Additionally, the Company has an option to call the interests in certain circumstances. Because the interests are redeemable at the option of the holders and not solely within the control of the Company, the Company classified the interests in redeemable noncontrolling interests within its Consolidated Balance Sheet at their acquisition date fair values. Such fair values were estimated based on an assessment of the economic rights and characteristics of each instrument in the capital structure and a market approach analysis, looking at the transaction and the dynamics of that acquisition. Key inputs include the price paid by each independent party and the rights on the instruments acquired. The optional redemption features may become exercisable no earlier than four years from the closing date of the PA Consulting investment.
The Company has concluded these interests are probable of becoming redeemable with these interests measured at the greater of (i) the redemption amount that would be paid if settlement occurred at the balance sheet date, or (ii) the historical value resulting from the original acquisition date fair value plus or minus any earnings or loss attribution amounts, including dividends. The amount of the redemption value in excess of the historical values of the interests is recognized as an increase to redeemable noncontrolling interest and a charge to retained earnings, except for amounts related to preferred shares, which, if are incurred in the future, are reflected as adjustments to net earnings (loss) attributable to Jacobs.
Changes in the redeemable noncontrolling interest during the three months ended April 2, 2021 are as follows (in thousands):
Fair value of redeemable noncontrolling interests at acquisition$581,119 
Cumulative Accrued Preferred Dividend to Preference Shareholders5,844 
Attribution of Preferred Dividend to Common Shareholders(5,844)
Net loss attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interest to Common Shareholders(101,392)
Redeemable Noncontrolling interests redemption value adjustment to Common Shareholders107,238 
Balance at April 2, 2021$586,965 

In addition, certain employees of PA Consulting are expected to receive equity based incentive grants in the future under the terms of the applicable agreements.
Employee Benefit Trust, Defined Contribution Plans and Defined Benefit Plans

PA Consulting is party to an employee benefit trust arrangement, defined contribution plans and defined benefit plans.
PA Consulting is party to an employee benefit trust that is a separately administered discretionary trust for the benefit of employees and are consolidated under US GAAP. At April 2, 2021, the Company held $273.6 million in cash within the employee benefit trust that is restricted from general use and is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the consolidated balance sheet.
The PA Consulting defined benefit plans include UK and Germany based plans. The UK arrangement is a defined benefit plan which has been closed to new participants since 1998 and is expected to wind down in the current fiscal year. Prior to the investment in PA Consulting, PA Consulting completed a pension buy-in transaction for the primary UK defined benefit pension plan where the assets of the plan were invested in a bulk-purchase annuity policy with an insurance company. As such, the UK defined benefit plan is fully funded.

17.     Income TaxesSale of Energy, Chemicals and Resources ("ECR") Business
The Company’s effective tax rates from continuing operations for the three months ended March 27, 2020 and March 29, 2019 were 34.6% and (7.1)%, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rates from continuing operations for the six months ended March 27, 2020 and March 29, 2019 were 9.5% and 7.3%, respectively. The comparatively higher quarterly tax rate was primarily due to a $37.4 million tax benefit in the three months ended March 29, 2019 for remeasurement of the Company's deferred tax liability for unremitted earnings to account for the change in expected manner of recovery due to the ECR divestiture. For the three months ended March 27, 2020, the effective tax rate was impacted by $5.8 million from amended returns for foreign tax credits and research and development credits, a $4.1 million benefit related to an India withholding tax rate change and benefits from an Internal Revenue Code section 179D energy credit. The Company’s effective tax rate from continuing operations for the six months ended March 27, 2020 was impacted by the quarterly tax benefit items noted above as well as impacts from a $3.7 million favorable settlement with the Indian Revenue Services in the first quarter fiscal 2020.
See Note 7- Sale of Energy, Chemicals and Resources ("ECR") Business for further information on the Company's discontinued operations reporting for the sale of the ECR business.
On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”) was enacted in the United States and significantly revised the U.S. corporate income tax laws. Given the significance of the legislation, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (SAB 118), which allowed registrants to record provisional amounts during a one year “measurement period” like that used when accounting for business combinations. As of December 22, 2018, we completed our accounting for the tax effects of the enactment of the Act. For the deferred tax balances, we remeasured the U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the rates at which they are expected to reverse in the future, which is generally 21%. The Company’s revised remeasurement resulted in cumulative charges to income tax expense of $144.4 million for the measurement period. The Act called for a one-time tax on deemed repatriation of foreign earnings. This one-time transition tax was based on our total post-1986 earnings and profits (E&P) of certain of our foreign subsidiaries. We recorded $14.3 million in cumulative transition taxes during the measurement period, although the transition tax was expected to be offset by foreign tax credits in the future, resulting in no additional cash tax liability. In addition, the Company recorded $104.2 million in cumulative valuation expense charges during the measurement period with respect to certain foreign tax credit deferred tax assets as a result of the Act and CH2M integration.
The amount of income taxes the Company pays is subject to ongoing audits by tax jurisdictions around the world. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by tax authorities throughout the world, including such major jurisdictions as Australia, Canada, India, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and the United States. Our estimate of the potential outcome of any uncertain tax issue is subject to our assessment of the relevant risks, facts, and circumstances existing at the time. The Company believes that it has adequately provided for reasonably foreseeable outcomes related to these matters. However, future results may include favorable or unfavorable adjustments to our estimated tax liabilities in the period the assessments are made or resolved, which may impact our effective tax rate.
On April 26, 2019, Jacobs completed the sale of its ECR business to Worley for a purchase price of $3.4 billion consisting of (i) $2.8 billion in cash plus (ii) 58.2 million ordinary shares of Worley, subject to adjustments for changes in working capital and certain other items (the “ECR sale”).
Discontinued Operations

As a result of the ECR sale, substantially all ECR-related assets and liabilities were sold (the "Disposal Group"). We determined that the Disposal Group should be reported as discontinued operations in accordance with ASC 210-05,

As such, the financial results of the ECR business are reflected in our unaudited Consolidated Statements of Earnings Per Shareas discontinued operations for all periods presented.

Share Repurchases
On January 17, 2019, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to $1.0 billion of the Company’s common stock, to expire on January 16, 2022 (the "2019 Repurchase Authorization"). During fiscal 2019, the Company launched accelerated share repurchase programs by advancing a total of $500.0 million to 2 financial institutions in privately negotiated transactions (collectively, the "2019 ASR Programs"). The specific number of shares that the Company repurchased under the 2019 ASR Programs was determined based generally on a discount to the volume-weighted average price per share of the Company's common stock during a calculation period which ended on June 5, 2019 for the first $250.0 million in repurchases and on December 4, 2019 for the second $250.0 million in repurchases. The purchases were recorded as share retirements for purposes of calculating earnings per share.

On January 16, 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized an additional share repurchase program of up to $1.0 billion of the Company’s common stock, to expire on January 15, 2023 (the "2020 Repurchase Authorization"). There have been no repurchases under the 2020 Repurchase Authorization as of March 27, 2020.
The share repurchase programs do not obligate the Company to purchase any shares. Share repurchases may be executed through various means including, without limitation, accelerated share repurchases, open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions, purchases pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 plan or otherwise. The authorization for the share repurchase programs may be terminated, increased or decreased by the Company’s Board of Directors in its discretion at any time. 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, currency fluctuations, the market price of the Company's common stock, other uses of capital and other factors.
Dividend Program
On May 5, 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.19 per sharePeople & Places Solutions ("P&PS")-related activities in one international legal entity acquired by Worley. The fair value of the Company’s common stockretained interest in the net assets and liabilities of this entity was estimated at $33.0 million and recorded at closing. For another international legal entity, the closing and transfer of ECR-related assets to be paidWorley were set to occur at a future date. At the time of the ECR sale, the Company allocated proceeds received to these deferred closing items on June 17, 2020, to shareholdersa relative fair value basis and recognized a deferred gain of record on the close of business on May 20, 2020. Future dividend declarations are subject to review and approval by the Company’s Board of Directors. Dividends paid through$34.4 million. During the second fiscal quarter of 2020, the delayed transfer of the ECR-related assets and liabilities of these two international entities occurred, and as a result, previously deferred gain amounts were recognized.
In addition to consideration received for the preceding fiscal year are as follows:  sale of the business, the proceeds received included advanced consideration for the Company to deliver IT application and related hardware assets at a future date (“IT Migration Date”) to Worley upon completion of the interim transition services, described further below. This deliverable of IT assets was considered to be a separate element of the ECR business sale transaction, and accordingly, we allocated a portion of the proceeds received of $95.3 million on a relative fair value basis to this separate deliverable and recognized deferred income.

During fiscal 2019 and continuing into fiscal 2020, the Company implemented certain restructuring, separation and integration initiatives associated with the ECR sale, the acquisition of KeyW Holding Corporation ("KeyW"), and other related cost reduction initiatives. Additionally, in fiscal 2020, the Company implemented certain restructuring and integration initiatives associated with the acquisition of John Wood Group's nuclear business. The restructuring activities and related costs were comprised mainly of separation and lease abandonment and sublease programs, while the separation and integration activities and costs were mainly related to the engagement of consulting services and internal personnel and other related costs dedicated to the Company’s ECR-business separation and integration of KeyW and the John Wood Group’s nuclear business. The activities of these initiatives are expected to be substantially completed before the end of fiscal 2021.
During the fourth fiscal quarter of 2017, the Company implemented certain restructuring and pre-integration plans associated with the then-pending acquisition of CH2M Hill Companies, Ltd. ("CH2M"), an international provider of engineering, construction and technical services (the "CH2M acquisition"), which closed on December 15, 2017. The restructuring activities and related costs under these plans were comprised mainly of severance and lease abandonment programs, while the integration activities and costs were mainly related to the engagement of professional services and internal personnel and other related costs dedicated to the Company’s integration management efforts. Following the closing of the CH2M acquisition, these activities have continued through fiscal 2020 and are expected to be substantially completed before the end of fiscal 2022.
Collectively, the above-mentioned restructuring activities are referred to as “Restructuring and other charges.”
The following table summarizes the impacts of the Restructuring and other charges by line of business ("LOB") in connection with the CH2M, KeyW, John Wood Group's nuclear business and Buffalo Group acquisitions and the PA Consulting investment, the ECR sale and the Company's fourth quarter fiscal 2020 transformation initiatives relating to real estate and other staffing programs and impairment of the AWE Management Ltd. investment for the three and six months ended April 2, 2021 and the CH2M, KeyW and John Wood Group's nuclear business acquisitions and the ECR sale for the three and six months ended March 27, 2020 (in thousands):

19.     Commitments and Contingencies and Derivative Financial Instruments
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk under its variable rate borrowings and additionally, due to the nature of the Company's international operations, we are at times exposed to foreign currency risk. As such, we sometimes enter into foreign exchange hedging contracts and interest rate hedging contracts in order to limit our exposure to fluctuating foreign currencies and interest rates. The Company did not have outstanding
In fiscal 2020 we entered into interest rate swap agreements with a notional value of $801.5 million as of April 2, 2021 to manage the interest rate exposure on our variable rate loans. Additionally, we entered into a cross-currency swap agreement with a notional value of $127.8 million to manage the interest rate and foreign currency orexposure on our USD borrowings by a European subsidiary. By entering into the swap agreements, the Company converted the LIBOR rate based liability into a fixed rate liability and, for the cross currency swap, our LIBOR rate based borrowing in USD to a fixed rate Euro liability, for periods ranging from three and a half to ten years. Under the interest rate derivatives that would haveswap agreements, the Company receives the one month LIBOR rate and pays monthly a material effectfixed rate ranging from .704% to 1.116% and under the cross currency swap agreement, the Company receives the one month LIBOR rate plus 0.875% in USD and pays monthly a Euro fixed rate of .726% to .746% for the term of the swaps. The swaps were designated as cash-flow hedges in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The fair value of the interest rate and cross currency swaps at April 2, 2021 and October 2, 2020 was $(1.0) million and $(31.5) million, respectively, of which $(13.2) million is included in other deferred liabilities and $12.3 million is included in miscellaneous other assets on ourthe consolidated financial statements or resultsbalance sheets at April 2, 2021. The entire amount was included in other deferred liabilities at October 2, 2020. The unrealized net gain (loss) on these interest rate and cross currency swaps was $9.5 million and $(14.6) million, net of operationstax, and was included in accumulated other comprehensive income as of April 2, 2021 and March 27,October 2, 2020, respectively.

Additionally, the Company held foreign exchange forward contracts in currencies that support our operations, including British Pound, Euro, Australian Dollar and other currencies, with notional values of $447.4 million at April 2, 2021 and $393.7 million at October 2, 2020. The length of these contracts currently ranges from one to 12 months. The fair value of the foreign exchange contracts at April 2, 2021 and October 2, 2020 was $79.2 million and $53.5 million, respectively, which is included in current assets within receivables and contract assets on the consolidated balance sheets and with associated income statement impacts included in miscellaneous income (expense) in the consolidated statements of earnings.

The fair value measurements of these derivatives are being made using Level 2 inputs under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, as the measurements are based on observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets. We are exposed to risk from credit-related losses resulting from nonperformance by counterparties to our financial instruments. We perform credit evaluations of our counterparties under forward exchange and interest rate contracts and expect all counterparties to meet their obligations. We have not experienced credit losses from our counterparties.
Contractual Guarantees and Insurance
In the normal course of business, we make contractual commitments (some of which are supported by separate guarantees) and on occasion we are a party in a litigation or arbitration proceeding. The litigation or arbitration in which we are involved includes personal injury claims, professional liability claims and breach of contract claims. Where we provide a separate guarantee, it is strictly in support of the underlying contractual commitment. Guarantees take various forms including surety bonds required by law, or standby letters of credit ("LOC" and also referred to as “bank guarantees”) or corporate guarantees given to induce a party to enter into a contract with a subsidiary. Standby LOCs are also used as security for advance payments or in various other transactions. The guarantees have various expiration dates ranging from an arbitrary date to completion of our work (e.g., engineering only) to completion of the overall project. We record in the Consolidated Balance Sheets amounts representing our estimated liability relating to such guarantees, litigation and insurance claims. Guarantees are accounted for in accordance with ASC 460-10, Guarantees, at fair value at the inception of the guarantee.
At March 27,April 2, 2021 and October 2, 2020, and September 27, 2019, the Company had issued and outstanding approximately $262.8approximately $263.6 million and and $262.2263.0 million, respectively, in LOCs and $1.97$2.1 billionand $2.0$2.3 billion, respectively, in surety bonds.
We maintain insurance coverage for most insurable aspects of our business and operations. Our insurance programs have varying coverage limits depending upon the type of insurance and include certain conditions and exclusions which insurance companies may raise in response to any claim that is asserted by or against the Company. We have also elected to retain a portion of losses and liabilities that occur through using various deductibles, limits, and retentions under our insurance programs. As a result, we may be subject to a future liability for which we are only partially insured or completely uninsured. We intend to mitigate any such future liability by continuing to exercise prudent business judgment in negotiating the terms and conditions of the contracts which the Company enters with its clients. Our insurers are also subject to business risk and, as a result, one or more of them may be unable to fulfill their insurance obligations due to insolvency or otherwise.
Additionally, as a contractor providing services to the U.S. federal government, we are subject to many types of audits, investigations, and claims by, or on behalf of, the government including with respect to contract performance, pricing, cost allocations, procurement practices, labor practices, and socioeconomic obligations. Furthermore, our income, franchise, and similar tax returns and filings are also subject to audit and investigation by the Internal Revenue Service, most states within the United States, as well as by various government agencies representing jurisdictions outside the United States.
Our Consolidated Balance Sheets include amounts representing our probable estimated liability relating to such claims, guarantees, litigation, audits, and investigations. We perform an analysis to determine the level of reserves to establish for insurance-related claims that are known and have been asserted against us, as well as for insurance-related claims that are believed to have been incurred based on actuarial analysis but have not yet been reported to our claims administrators as of the respective balance sheet dates. We include any adjustments to such insurance reserves in our consolidated results of operations. Insurance recoveries are recorded as assets if recovery is probable and estimated liabilities are not reduced by expected insurance recoveries.
The Company believes, after consultation with counsel, that such guarantees, litigation, U.S. government contract-related audits, investigations and claims, and income tax audits and investigations should not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements, beyond amounts currently accrued.

In 2012, CH2M HILL Australia PtyPTY Limited, a subsidiary of CH2M, entered into a 50/50 integrated joint venture with Australian construction contractor UGL Infrastructure Pty Limited. The joint venture entered into a Consortium Agreement with General Electric and GE Electrical International Inc. The Consortium was awarded a subcontract by JKC Australia LNG Pty Limited ("JKC") for the engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning of a 360 MW Combined Cycle Power Plant for INPEX Operations Australia Pty Limited at Blaydin Point, Darwin, NT, Australia. In January 2017, the Consortium terminated the Subcontract because of JKC’s repudiatory breach and demobilized from the work site. JKC claimed the Consortium abandoned the work and itself purported to terminate the Subcontract. The Consortium and JKC are now in dispute over the termination. In August 2017, the Consortium filed an International Chamber of Commerce arbitration against JKC and is seeking compensatory damages in the amount of approximately $530.0 million for repudiatory breach or, in the alternative, seeking damages for unresolved contract claims and change orders.

On December 22, 2008, a coal fly ash pond at the Kingston Power Plant of the Tennessee Valley Authority ("TVA") was breached, releasing fly ash waste into the Emory River and surrounding community. In February 2009, TVA awarded a contract to the Company to provide project management services associated with the clean-up. All remediation and dredging were completed in August 2013 by other contractors under direct contracts with TVA. The Company did not perform the remediation, and its scope was limited to program management services. Certain employees of the contractors performing the cleanup work on the project filed lawsuits against the Company beginning in August 2013, alleging they were injured due to the Company's failure to protect the plaintiffs from exposure to fly ash, and asserting related personal injuries. There are currently 6 separate cases pending against the Company. The primary case, Greg Adkisson, et al. v. Jacobs Engineering Group Inc., case No. 3:13-CV-505-TAV-HBG, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee, consists of 10 consolidated cases. This case and the related cases involve several hundred plaintiffs that have been filed against the Company bywere employees of the contractors that completed the remediation and dredging work. The cases are at various stages of litigation, and several of the cases are currently stayed pending resolution of other cases. Separately,Additionally, in May 2019, Roane County and the cities of KingKingston and HerrimanHarriman filed a claim against TVA and the Company alleging that they misled the public about risks associated with the released fly ash.

In addition, in November 2019, a resident of Roane County, Margie Delozier, filed a putative class action against TVA and the Company alleging they failed to adequately warn local residents about risks associated with the released fly ash. The Company and TVA filed separate motions to dismiss the Delozier case in April 2020. In February 2021, the Court granted dismissal of the Delozier Complaint with prejudice, with the exception of Plaintiffs’ nuisance cause of action. The Court has granted Plaintiffs’ leave to file an amended Complaint. In February 2020, the Company learned that the district attorney in Roane County recommended that the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation investigate issues pertaining to clean up worker safety at Kingston, with that investigation still pending. There has been no finding of liability against the Company or that any of the alleged illnesses are the result of exposure to fly ash in any of the above matters. The Company disputes the claims asserted in all of the above matters and is vigorously defending these claims. The Company does not expect the resolution of these matters to have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

On October 31, 2019, the Company received a request from the Enforcement Division of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") for the voluntary production of certain information and documents. The information and documents sought by the SEC primarily relate to the operations of a joint venture in Morocco which was at one time partially-owned by the Company (and subsequently divested), including in respect of possible corrupt practices. The Company is fully cooperating with the SEC and is producing the requested information and documents in its possession. The Company does not expect the resolution of this matter to have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
20.     Segment Information
The Company's 3 operating segments and global lines of business ("LOBs") are as follows: Critical Mission Solutions ("CMS") and People & Places Solutions ("P&PS"), along with the addition of a new LOB in the second quarter of fiscal year 2021, PA Consulting, as a result of the recent strategic investment in this business. For further information on the PA Consulting investment, refer to Note 15 - PA ConsultingBusiness Combination.
The Company’s Chair and Chief Executive Officer is the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) and can evaluate the performance of each of these segments and make appropriate resource allocations among each of the segments. For purposes of the Company’s goodwill impairment testing, it has been determined that the Company’s operating segments are also its reporting units based on management’s conclusion that the components comprisingeach of its operating segments share similar economic characteristics and meet the aggregation criteria for reporting units in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other.
Under this organization, the sales function is managed by LOB, and accordingly, the associated cost is embedded in the segments and reported to the respective head of each LOB. In addition, a portion of the costs of other support functions (e.g., finance, legal, human resources, and information technology) is allocated to each LOB using methodologies which, we believe, effectively attribute the cost of these support functions to the revenue generating activities of the Company on a rational basis. The cost of the Company’s cash incentive plan, the Leadership Performance Plan ("LPP"), formerly named the Management Incentive Plan, and the expense associated with the Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. 1999 Stock Incentive Plan (“1999 SIP”) have likewise been charged to the LOBs except for those amounts determined to relate to the business as a whole (which amounts remain in other corporate expenses).
Financial information for each LOB is reviewed by the CODM to assess performance and make decisions regarding the allocation of resources. The Company generally does not track assets by LOB, nor does it provide such information to the CODM.
The CODM evaluates the operating performance of our LOBs using segment operating profit, which is defined as margin less “corporate charges” (e.g., the allocated amounts described above). The Company incurs certain Selling, General and Administrative costs (“SG&A”) that relate to its business as a whole which are not allocated to the LOBs.
The following tables present total revenues and segment operating profit from continuing operations for each reportable segment (in thousands) and includes a reconciliation of segment operating profit to total U.S. GAAP operating profit by including certain corporate-level expenses, Restructuring and other charges (as defined in Note 18 - Restructuring and Other Charges) and transaction and integration costs (in thousands).

Impact of COVID-19 on Our Business
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization characterized the outbreak of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) as a global pandemic and recommended certain containment and mitigation measures. On March 13, 2020, the United States declared a national emergency concerning the outbreak, and the vast majority of states and many

Page 35


municipalities have declared public health emergencies or taken similar actions. Along with these declarations, there have beenwere extraordinary and wide-ranging actions taken by international, federal, state and local public health and governmental authorities to contain and combat the outbreakoutbreaks of COVID-19 in regions across the United States and around the world. These actions includeincluded quarantines and “stay-at-home” or “shelter-in-place” orders, social distancing measures, travel restrictions, school closures and similar mandates for many individuals in order to substantially restrict daily activities and orders for many businesses to curtail or cease normal operations unless their work is critical, essential or life-sustaining. Although certain jurisdictions have taken steps to lift or ease such restrictions to various degrees, some jurisdictions have subsequently reversed such lifting or easing in response to increased cases of COVID-19. In addition, governments and central banks in the United States and other countries in which we operate have enacted fiscal and monetary stimulus and assistance measures to counteract the economic impacts of COVID-19.
As it became clear that the pandemic was unparalleled in the rate of community spread, we took early, decisive action to put people first, help flatten the curve and take care of our clients and communities. In early March 2020, we swiftly restricted travel and established return protocols for both client-related and personal travel. In 10 days, we successfully transitioned more than 85% of our employees to a remote working environment to support physical distancing. Where the essential and mission-critical nature of our work requires us to maintain staff at certain sites or locations, we worked closely with our clients and established project-specific plans designed to ensure the safety of our people and the integrity of our operations. Using technology and optimizing our networks, we continue to offer flexible work scenarios for our people, and to deliver business continuity for and continued collaboration with our clients. Our Executive Leadership Team met daily for the first three months and weekly thereafter, focusing on transparency, agile response and business resiliency; and our global and regional crisis management teams continued to maintain consistent messaging and direct local responses. Our regular global Town Halls, a weekly Chair and CEO email and short, self-produced leadership videos are intended to share open, transparent information to connect and unite our global community.

We are a company operating in a critical infrastructure industry, as defined by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Consistent with international, federal, state and local requirements to date, we currently continue to materially operate. In addition, demand for certain of our services, including those supporting health care relief efforts relating to COVID-19, has increased, and could continue to increase, as a result of COVID-19. Notwithstanding our continued critical operations, it is expected that the COVID-19 has negatively impacted our business, and may have further adverse impacts, on our continued operations.operations, including those listed and discussed in Item 1A, Risk Factors included in our 2020 Form 10-K.

We will continue to actively monitor the situation and may take further actions that alter our business operations as may be necessary or appropriate for the health and safety of employees, contractors, customers, suppliers or others or as required by international, federal, state or local authorities.

Based on current estimates, we expect the impact of COVID-19 to primarily occurcontinue throughout fiscal 2021, although to a lesser degree than what was seen in the third fiscal quarter of 2020, which impact may continue into the fourth fiscal quarter of 2020 or beyond.2020. Although this business disruption is expected to be temporary, significant uncertainty exists concerning the magnitude, duration and impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, including with regard to the effects on our customers and customer demand for our services. Accordingly, actual results for future fiscal periods could differ materially versus current expectations and current results and financial condition discussed herein may not be indicative of future operating results and trends.

Replica™ is Jacobs’ digital twin solution software platform and consists of the following capabilities:
Replica Parametric Design™ (formerly CPES™) provides outputs on construction quantities and costs, life cycle quantities and costs, and estimates of environmental impacts. Rapid process design in Replica Process and the resulting development of the Replica Parametric Designs allows for thorough alternatives analysis and enhanced team communication.  
Replica Preview™ is used for early stage visualization of facility designs. This software rapidly creates scaled three-dimensional designs, which can be placed on Google Earth®. Rapid design development in Replica Parametric Design and visualization with Replica Preview allows for informed analysis of many alternatives and sound decision-making.
Replica Systems Analysis™ (formerly Voyage™) is a very flexible platform that can simulate resource systems dynamically, over time. Examples of modeled systems include water resources, energy, solid waste and traffic. The ability to connect complex systems together in a single interface that is visually intuitive leads to informed team collaboration and creative solutions.
Replica Process™ allows Jacobs' world-renowned expertise in water treatment to be simulated both statically and dynamically over time in Replica Process™ software. Much of the process predictive capabilities in Replica Process are founded on the Jacobs' Pro2D2™ and Source™ software. Informed decisions are founded on the ability of Replica Process to provide details on system performance among many alternatives, very quickly.
Replica Hydraulics™ was designed to simulate all pressurized and gravity flow hydraulics of a system, simultaneously. Replica’s hydraulic blocks were built on accepted engineering practice equations and have been successfully verified on hundreds of projects. The Replica Hydraulics library is the foundation for complete, dynamic water system analysis and can be used exclusively for hydraulic analysis of a system or in conjunction with Replica Process, Replica Controls and/or Replica Air.
Replica Controls™ allows for dynamic simulation of system instrumentation such as flow meters, indicator transmitters, limit switches and stream analyzers as well as the logic objects including PID controllers, sequencers, units controller and alarms. The software's controls capabilities and functionality align with industry design standards and its ability to predict full scale performance is unmatched due to the connectivity with Replica Hydraulics.
Replica Air™ simulates all aspects of compressible fluid (e.g. air) supply system including pipes, valves, diffusers and blowers. The ability to couple Replica Air with Replica Controls in a single simulation allows for the development of unique and robust designs that reduce energy use and life cycle costs.Nordics.
Energy, Chemicals and Resources (ECR)
ECR Disposition
On April 26, 2019, Jacobs completed the sale of its Energy, Chemicals and Resources ("ECR") business to Worley Limited, a company incorporated in Australia ("Worley"), for a purchase price of $3.4 billion consisting of (i) $2.8 billion in cash plus (ii) 58.2 million ordinary shares of Worley, subject to adjustments for changes in working capital and certain other items (the “ECR sale”).

Page 41


As a result of the ECR sale, substantially all ECR-related assets and liabilities were sold (the "Disposal Group"). We determined that the disposal group should be reported as discontinued operations in accordance with ASC 210-05, Discontinued Operations because their disposal represented a strategic shift that had a major effect on our operations and financial results. As such, the assets and liabilities of the ECR business were reflected as held-for-sale in the Consolidated Balance Sheets through DecemberSeptember 27, 2019. As of March 27,the year ended October 2, 2020, all of the ECR business to be sold under the terms of the ECR sale hashad been conveyed to Worley and as such, no amounts remain held for sale. For further discussion see Note 7-17- Sale of Energy, Chemicals and Resources ("ECR") Business to the consolidated financial statements.
Prior to the sale, we served the energy, chemicals and resources sectors, including upstream, midstream and downstream oil, gas, refining, chemicals and mining and minerals industries. We provided integrated delivery of complex projects for our Oil and Gas, Refining, and Petrochemicals clients. Bridging the upstream, midstream and downstream industries, our services encompassed consulting, engineering, procurement, construction, maintenance and project management.

While certain business units of both Critical Mission Solutions, and People & Places Solutions and PA Consulting have experienced, and may continue to experience, an increase in demand for certain of their services regarding new projects that may arise in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, it is still expected that COVID-19 is likely to continue to have an adverse impact on each of Critical Missions Solutions and People & Places Solutions continuing into fiscal 2021, although to a lesser degree than what was seen in the third fiscal quarter of 2020, which may continue into the fourth fiscal quarter and beyond.2020.

The comparatively higher quarterly taxApril 2, 2021 was lower than the corresponding rate wasin the prior period primarily due to a $37.4tax expense of $15.0 million attributable to a nondeductible compensation related charge associated with the PA Consulting acquisition, resulting in a decrease in tax rate as a consequence of an overall pre-tax loss position.

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”) was enacted in the United States and significantly revised the U.S. corporate income tax laws. Given the significance of the legislation, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (SAB 118), which allowed registrants to record provisional amounts during a one year “measurement period” like that used when accounting for business combinations. As of December 22, 2018, we completed our accounting for the tax effects of the enactment of the Act. For the deferred tax balances, we remeasured the U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the rates at which they are expected to reverse in the future, which is generally 21%. The Company’s revised remeasurement resulted in cumulative charges to income tax expense of $144.4 million for the measurement period. The Act called for a one-time tax on deemed repatriation of foreign earnings. This one-time transition tax was based on our total post-1986 earnings and profits (E&P) of certain of our foreign subsidiaries. We recorded $14.3 million in cumulative transition taxes during the measurement period, although the transition tax was expected to be offset by foreign tax credits in the future, resulting in no additional cash tax liability. In addition, the Company recorded $104.2 million in cumulative valuation expense charges during the measurement period with respect to certain foreign tax credit deferred tax assets as a result of the Act and CH2M integration.
The amount of income taxes the Company pays is subject to ongoing audits by tax jurisdictions around the world. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by tax authorities throughout the world, including such major jurisdictions as Australia, Canada, India, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and the United States. Our estimate of the potential outcome of any uncertain tax issue is subject to our assessment of the relevant risks, facts, and circumstances existing at the time. The Company believes that it has adequately provided for reasonably foreseeable outcomes related to these matters. However, future results may include favorable or unfavorable adjustments to our estimated tax liabilities in the period the assessments are made or resolved, which may impact our effective tax rate.

Revenues for the PA Consulting segment for the three and six months ended April 2, 2021 were $98.3 million. Operating profit for the segment for the three and six months ended April 2, 2021 was $27.9 million. There were no comparable periods in the prior year, given the transaction closed on March 2, 2021.
Other Corporate Expenses
Other corporate expenses for the three and six months ended March 27, 2020April 2, 2021 were $63.3 million and $133.7 million an increase of $2.1 million and $5.7 million from $61.2 million and $127.9 million, an increase of $11.3 million and $6.7 million from $49.9 million and $121.1 million for the corresponding periods last year. This increase was due primarily to higher intangible amortization expense from the KeyWPA Consulting investment and the Buffalo Group and John Wood Group nuclear business acquisitions, as well as impacts from companyCompany benefit program enhancements. These increases were partly offset by employee related and other cost reductions across the Company's corporate functions.
Included in other corporate expenses in the above table are costs and expenses which relate to general corporate activities as well as corporate-managed benefit and insurance programs. Such costs and expenses include: (i) those elements of SG&A expenses relating to the business as a whole; (ii) those elements of our incentive compensation plans relating to corporate personnel whose other compensation costs are not allocated to the LOBs; (iii) the amortization of intangible assets acquired as part of purchased business combinations; (iv) the quarterly variances between the Company’s actual costs of certain of its self-insured integrated risk and employee benefit programs and amounts charged to the LOBs; and (v) certain adjustments relating to costs associated with the Company’s international defined benefit pension plans. In addition, other corporate expenses may also include from time to time certain adjustments to contract margins (both positive and negative) associated with projects, as well as other items, where it has been determined in the opinion of management, that such adjustments are not indicative of the performance of the related LOB.
Discontinued Operations
The results from our ECR business formerly reported as a stand-alone segment are reflected in our unaudited consolidated financial statements as discontinued operations for all periods presented. For further information, refer to Note 7- Sale of Energy, Chemicals and Resources ("ECR") Business.
For the three and six months ended March 27, 2020, net earnings attributable to Jacobs from discontinued operations after income taxes were $29.9 million and $107.5 million, respectively, and for the three and six months ended March 29, 2019, net (loss) earnings attributable to discontinued operations after income taxes were $(57.8) million and $1.6 million, respectively. While the ECR business sale closed in April 2019, the Company recognized additional pretax income from discontinued operations of $18.3 million and $129.8 million in the three and six months ended March 27, 2020, primarily for the release of the deferred gain related to the delayed conveyance of the international entities in the three months ended March 27, 2020, and, additionally, for the six months ended March 27, 2020, the deferred gain upon achievement of the IT Migration Date in connection with the delivery to Worley of certain IT application and hardware assets related to the ECR business, as well as adjustment for working capital and certain other items resolved during the year to date period, described in Note 7. Additionally, for the six months ended March 27, 2020, the Company recognized

a reduction to selling, general and administrative expenses in discontinued operations related to an insurance recovery of $50.0 million in connection with the NPMC legal matter.
Restructuring and Other Charges
See Note 11-18- Restructuring and Other Charges for information on the Company’s activity relating to restructuring and other charges.
Backlog Information
We include in backlog the total dollar amount of revenues we expect to record in the future as a result of performing work under contracts that have been awarded to us. Our policy with respect to Operations & Maintenance ("O&M&M") contracts, however, is to include in backlog the amount of revenues we expect to receive for one succeeding year, regardless of the remaining life of the contract. For national government programs (other than national government O&M contracts, which are subject to the same policy applicable to all other O&M contracts), our policy is to include in backlog the full contract award, whether funded or unfunded, excluding option periods. Because of variations in the nature, size, expected duration, funding commitments, and the scope of services required by our contracts, the timing of when backlog will be recognized as revenues can vary greatly between individual contracts.
Consistent with industry practice, substantially all of our contracts are subject to cancellation or termination at the option of the client, including our U.S. government work. While management uses all information available to determine backlog, at any given time our backlog is subject to changes in the scope of services to be provided as well as increases or decreases in costs relating to the contracts included therein. Backlog is not necessarily an indicator of future revenues.
Because certain contracts (e.g., contracts relating to large EPCEngineering, Procurement & Construction ("EPC") projects as well as national government programs) can cause large increases to backlog in the fiscal period in which we recognize the award, and because many of our contracts require us to provide services that span over several fiscal

Page 48


quarters (and sometimes over fiscal years), we evaluate our backlog on a year-over-year basis, rather than on a sequential, quarter-over-quarter basis.
The following table summarizes our backlog at April 2, 2021 and March 27, 2020 and March 29, 2019 (in millions):

The increase in backlog in Critical Mission Solutions (CMS) from March 29, 201927, 2020 was primarily the result of the acquisition of KeyWthe Buffalo Group and John Wood Group's Nuclear consulting, remediation and program management businessconversion of the other robust CMS pipeline.
The increase in backlog in People & Places Solutions (P&PS) from March 29, 201927, 2020 was primarily the result of new awards in the U.K. and U.S. markets.
Backlog in PA Consulting as of April 2, 2021 was $280.0 million. The PA Consulting transaction closed on March 2, 2021.
Consolidated backlog differs from the Company’s remaining performance obligations as defined by ASC 606 primarily because of our national government contracts (other than national government O&M contracts). Our policy is to generally include in backlog the full contract award unless materially large, whether funded or unfunded excluding the option periods while our remaining performance obligations represent a measure of the total dollar value of work to be performed on contracts awarded and in progress. Additionally, the Company includes our proportionate share of backlog related to unconsolidated joint ventures which is not included in our remaining performance obligations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At March 27, 2020,April 2, 2021, our principal sources of liquidity consisted of $1.66 billion$893.3 million in cash and cash equivalents and $679.4 million$1.39 billion of available borrowing capacity under our $2.25 billion revolvingrevolving credit agreement (the "Revolving Credit Facility"). We finance much of our operations and growth through cash generated by our operations.
The amount of cash and cash equivalents at March 27, 2020April 2, 2021 represented an increase of $1.0 billion$30.9 million from $631.1$862.4 million at September 27, 2019,October 2, 2020, the changes ofreasons for which are described below. The Company also holds $273.6 million in restricted cash as of April 2, 2021, relating to the PA Consulting employee benefit trust, the majority which is expected to be paid out in the third fiscal quarter of 2021 and will be recorded in cash from operations.
Our cash flow provided by operations of $350.2 million during the six months ended April 2, 2021 was favorable by $335.3 million in comparison to the cash flow used for operations of $15.0 million for the corresponding prior year period. This improvement was due mainly to lower uses of cash and a slight increase in non-cash add backs in other working capital. The improvement due to lower uses of cash was primarily due to improved receivable collections compared to the previous period, along with an increase in cash from accrued liabilities primarily associated with non-cash accruals of PA Consulting compensation expense and favorability in other deferred liabilities.
Our cash used for investing activities for the six months ended was $1.74 billion, compared to cash used for investing activities of $365.3 million in the corresponding prior year period, the change due primarily to the acquisition of the Buffalo Group in the first fiscal quarter and the investment in PA Consulting and final ECR sale proceeds received in the current quarter and the acquisition of John Wood Group's Nuclear Business in the prior year period of $286.5 million.
Our cash provided by financing activities of $1.67 billion for the six months ended April 2, 2021 resulted mainly from net proceeds from borrowings of $1.78 billion, partly offset by cash used for share repurchases of $24.9 million and$81.9 million in dividends to shareholders and noncontrolling interests. Cash provided by financing activities in the corresponding prior year period was $1.35 billion, due primarily to net proceeds from borrowings of $1.71 billion, offset by cash used for share repurchases of $285.8 million and $63.5 million in dividends to shareholders and noncontrolling interests.

Page 49


Our cash flow provided by operations of $15.0 million during the six-month period ended March 27, 2020 was comparatively favorable to the cash flow used for operations of $55.2 million for the corresponding prior year period. This improvement was due primarily to favorable net earnings adjusted for noncash items compared to the previous period driven by improved operating performance. Partly offsetting this favorable impact was slightly higher uses of cash in working capital, due mainly to higher cash amounts used in accrued liabilities and accounts payable. The higher cash amounts used in accrued liabilities in the current period are primarily related to higher payments in personnel related liabilities and professional services and the current year payment for the Nui Phao legal matter settlement accrued in the prior year. We expect the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting economic conditions may have an adverse impact on cash flow provided from operations beginning in the third quarter of fiscal 2020.
Our cash used for investing activities for the six months ended March 27, 2020 was $365.3 million, compared to cash used for investing of $59.3 million in the prior year, the change due primarily to the current period acquisition of John Wood Group's Nuclear business.
Our cash provided by financing activities of $1.35 billion for the six months ended March 27, 2020 resulted mainly from net proceeds from borrowings of $1.7 billion, partly offset by cash used for share repurchases of $285.8 million, $63.5 million in dividends to shareholders and noncontrolling interest and approximately $5.8 million in stock-based compensation and benefit plan related activity. Cash provided by financing activities in the prior period was $152.6 million, due primarily from net borrowings of $695.6 million, partly offset by cash used for share repurchases of $488.4 million and $56.4 million in dividends to shareholders and noncontrolling interests.
At March 27, 2020,April 2, 2021, the Company had approximately $860.1approximately $134.7 million in cash and cash equivalents held in the U.S. and $795.8 million$758.6 million held outside of the U.S. (primarily in the U.K., the Eurozone, Australia, India, Japan and the United Arab Emirates), which is used primarily for funding operations in those regions. Other than the tax cost of repatriating funds to the U.S. (see Note 15-7- Income Taxes of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2020 Form 10-K), there are no material impediments to repatriating these funds to the U.S.

The Company had
$263.6 million in letters of credit outstanding at April 2, 2021. Of this amount, $1.7 million was issued under the Revolving Credit Facility and $261.9 million was issued under separate, committed and uncommitted letter-of-credit facilities.
InOn March 25, 2020,2, 2021, Jacobs completed the strategic investment of a 65% interest in PA Consulting, a UK-based leading innovation and transformation consulting firm. The total consideration paid by the Company was $1.7 billion, funded through cash on hand, a new term loan and draws on the Company's existing revolver. Further, in connection with the transaction, an additional $266.6 million had not yet been distributed at April 2, 2021 due to continuing employment requirements. Consequently, this amount represents compensation expense incurred related to the acquisition that is expected to be paid in the third quarter of fiscal 2021. The remaining 35% interest is held by PA Consulting employees, whose redeemable noncontrolling interests had a fair value of $581.1 million on the closing date. PA Consulting is accounted for as a consolidated subsidiary and as a separate operating segment under U.S. GAAP accounting rules. See Note 15- PA Consulting Business Combination for more discussion on the investment.
On January 20, 2021, the Company entered into a newan unsecured delayed draw term loan facility (the “2020“2021 Term Loan Facility”) with a syndicate of financial institutions as lenders. The principal balance ofUnder the 20202021 Term Loan Facility, was $1.0 billion asthe Company borrowed an aggregate principal amount of March 27, 2020.$200.0 million and £650.0 million. The terms and other important details are summarizedproceeds of the term loans were used primarily to fund the investment in Note 12- Borrowings.PA Consulting. The 20202021 Term Loan Facility was entered into as partcontains affirmative and negative covenants and events of our strategy to increase the portiondefault customary for financings of our long-term debtthis type that is represented by term loan facilities. Although the Company had intended to use the majority of the proceeds of the 2020 Term Loan Facility to repay outstanding amounts under the Revolving Credit Facility, the Company used proceeds to repay $200 millionare consistent with those included in short-term debt and retained the remaining cash proceeds as a precautionary measure. As a result, the Company maintained a higher level of long-term indebtedness in order to increase its cash position and preserve financial flexibility in light of current uncertainties resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Company had $262.8 million in letters of credit outstanding at March 27, 2020. Of this amount, $2.3 million was issued under the Revolving Credit Facility and $260.5the 2020 Term Loan Facility.
On November 24, 2020, a subsidiary of Jacobs completed the acquisition of Buffalo Group, a leader in advanced cyber and intelligence solutions. The Company paid total consideration of $190.1 million, which was issued under separate, committedcomprised of approximately $182.4 million in cash to the former owners of Buffalo Group and uncommitted letter-of-credit facilities.contingent consideration of $7.7 million which is expected to be settled in fiscal 2022. In conjunction with the acquisition, the Company assumed the Buffalo Group's debt of approximately $7.7 million. The Company repaid all of the assumed Buffalo Group debt by the end of the first fiscal quarter of 2021. The Company has recorded its preliminary purchase price allocation associated with the acquisition, which is summarized in Note 16- Other Business Combinations.
On March 6, 2020, a subsidiary of Jacobs completed the acquisition of John Wood Group's Nuclearnuclear consulting, remediation and program management business for an enterprise value of £241£246 million, or approximately $310.9$317.9 million, less cash acquired of $24.3 million. The Company has recorded its preliminaryfinal purchase accounting processesallocation associated with the acquisitions,acquisition, which areis summarized in Note 5-16- Other Business Combinations.
On June 12, 2019, Jacobs completed the acquisition of The KeyW Holding Corporation (“KeyW”), a U.S. based innovative national security solutions provider to the intelligence, cyber, and counterterrorism communities by acquiring 100% of the outstanding shares of KeyW common stock. The Company paid total consideration of $902.7 million which was comprised of approximately $604.3 million in cash to the former stockholders and certain equity award holders of KeyW and the assumption of KeyW’s debt of $298.4 million. The Company repaid all of KeyW's outstanding debt by the end of the fourth fiscal quarter of 2019.

On April 26, 2019, Jacobs completed the sale of its ECR business to Worley for a purchase price of $3.4 billion consisting of (i) $2.8 billion in cash plus (ii) 58.2 million ordinary shares of Worley, subject to adjustments for changes in working capital and certain other items.Page 50

In addition, as a precautionary measure, we temporarily suspended purchases under the share repurchase plan in March 2020, with such suspension remaining in effect through the third fiscal quarter of 2020. During the fourth fiscal quarter of 2020, we resumed share repurchases on a limited basis. Looking ahead, we have developed contingency plans to reduce costs further if the situation deteriorates beyond or lasts longer than current assumptions and expectations.
We were in compliance with all of our debt covenants at March 27, 2020.April 2, 2021.
Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
We do not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading, speculation or other similar purposes that would expose the Company to market risk. In the normal course of business, our results of operations are exposed to risks associated with fluctuations in interest rates and currency exchange rates.
Interest Rate Risk
Please see the Note 12- Borrowings in Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements appearing under Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated herein by reference, for a discussion of the Revolving Credit Facility, Term Loan Facilities and Note Purchase Agreement.
Our Revolving Credit Facility, 2020 Term Loan FacilityFacilities and certain other debt obligations are subject to variable rate interest which could be adversely affected by an increase in interest rates. As of March 27, 2020,April 2, 2021, we had an aggregate of $2.6$2.99 billion in outstanding borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility and 2020 Term Loan Facility.Facilities. Interest on amounts borrowed under these agreements is subject to adjustment based on the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio (as defined in the credit agreements governing the Revolving Credit Facility and the 2020 Term Loan Facility)Facilities). Depending on the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio, borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and the 2020 Term Loan FacilityFacilities bear interest at a Eurocurrency rate plus a margin of between 0.875% and 1.5%1.625% or a base rate plus a margin of between 0%0.0% and 0.5%.0.625% including applicable margins. Additionally, if our consolidated leverage ratioConsolidated Leverage Ratio exceeds a certain amount, the interest on the Senior Notes may increase by 75 basis points. However, as discussed in Note 19- Commitments and Contingencies and Derivative Financial Instruments, we have entered into swap agreements with an aggregate notional value of $929.3 million to convert the variable rate interest based liabilities associated with a corresponding amount of our debt into fixed interest rate liabilities, leaving $2.06 billion in principal amount subject to variable interest rate risk.
For the six months ended March 27, 2020,April 2, 2021, our weighted average borrowings that are subject to floating rate borrowingsexposure were approximately $1.38 billion.$870.1 million. If floating interest rates had increased by 1.00%, our interest expense for the six months ended March 27, 2020April 2, 2021 would have increased by approximately $7.9$4.3 million.
Foreign Currency Risk
In situations where our operations incur contractthe Company incurs costs in currencies other than theirour functional currency, we attempt to have a portion of the related contract revenues denominated in the same currencies as the costs. In those situations, where revenues and costs are transacted in different currencies, we sometimes enter into foreign exchange contracts to limit our exposure to fluctuating foreign currencies. We follow the provisions of ASC No. 815, Derivatives and Hedging in accounting for our derivative contracts. The Company did not havehas $447.4 million in notional value of exchange rate sensitive instruments at April 2, 2021. See Note 19- March 27, 2020 Commitments and Contingencies and Derivative Financial Instrumentsthat would have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements or results of operations. for discussion.

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are those controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chair and Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Page 51


The Company’s management, with the participation of its Chair and Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined by Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act defined above, as of March 27, 2020,April 2, 2021, the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on that evaluation, the Company’s management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer) concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as of the Evaluation Date, were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chair and Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As permitted by SEC guidance for newly acquired businesses, management’s assessment of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures did not include an assessment of those disclosure controls and procedures of KeyWPA Consulting that are subsumed by internal control over financial reporting. KeyWPA Consulting accounted for approximately 8%20% of total assets as of the Evaluation Date and approximately 3%1% of total revenues of the Company for the six-month periodsix months ended on the Evaluation Date.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting which were identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act during the quarter ended March 27, 2020April 2, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1.    Legal Proceedings.
The information required by this Item 1 is included in the Note 19- Commitments and Contingencies and Derivative Financial Instruments included in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements appearing under Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 1A.    Risk Factors.
Please refer to Item 1A, 1A- Risk Factors in our 20192020 Form 10-K, which is incorporated herein by reference, for a discussion of some of the factors that have affected our business, financial condition, and results of operations in the past and which could affect us in the future. There have been no material changes to those risk factors, except for the information disclosed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that provides factual updates to those risk factors and the inclusion of the additional risk factors set forth below.factors. Before making an investment decision with respect to our common stock, you should carefully consider those risk factors, as well as the financial and business disclosures contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our other current and periodic reports filed with the SEC.
The COVID-19 pandemic, including the measures that international, federal, state and local public health and other governmental authorities implement to address it, may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization characterized the outbreak of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) as a global pandemic and recommended certain containment and mitigation measures. On March 13, 2020, the United States declared a national emergency concerning the outbreak, and the vast majority of states and many municipalities have declared public health emergencies or taken similar actions. Along with these declarations, there have been extraordinary and wide-ranging actions taken by international, federal, state and local public health and governmental authorities to contain and combat the outbreak of COVID-19 in regions across the United States and around the world. These actions include quarantines and “stay-at-home” or “shelter-in-place” orders, social distancing measures, travel restrictions, school closures and similar mandates for many individuals in order to substantially restrict daily activities and orders for many businesses to curtail or cease normal operations unless their work is critical, essential or life-sustaining.

The COVID-19 pandemic may adversely affect certain elements of our business, including, but not limited to, the following:

We may experience reductions in demand for certain of our services and the delay or abandonment of ongoing or anticipated projects due to our clients’, suppliers’ and other third parties’ diminished financial conditions or financial distress, as well as governmental budget constraints. While it is possible that COVID-19 and the resulting actions could result in increases in demand for certain of our services, including as a result of new projects that may arise in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, there can be no assurance that any such increased demand would be sufficient to offset lost or delayed demand.

Government-sponsored liquidity or stimulus programs that are enacted in the United States and in the foreign countries in which we operate in response to the COVID-19 pandemic may not be available to us or our customers or suppliers, and if available, may be insufficient to address the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. For example, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) was enacted in March 2020. In addition to other measures intending to provide economic relief in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the CARES Act contains provisions that authorize federal agencies to pay federal contractors notwithstanding reduced work schedules or shifts, as required to comply with quarantines or other social isolation measures. The exact amounts and circumstances permitting recovery are to be made by each applicable government agency or contracting official and are expected to vary on a contract-by-contract basis. Certain foreign governments are also permitting contracting authorities to revise the terms of government contracts and/or providing various forms of subsidies to compensate companies who maintain their workforce rather than impose layoffs or furloughs. Although we expect to recover a significant portion of these types of expenses on our U.S. government projects where our performance of work was affected by social distancing or similar restrictions due to COVID-19, our discussions with our U.S. government clients are ongoing, and we may not recover the full amount of our fee in addition to the reimbursement of our costs.


Page 53


Our clients may be unable to meet their payment obligations to us in a timely manner, including as a result of deteriorating financial condition or bankruptcy resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting economic impacts. Further, other third parties, such as suppliers, subcontractors, joint venture partners and other outside business partners, may experience significant disruptions in their ability to satisfy their obligations with respect to us, or they may be unable to do so altogether.

Many employers, including us, and governments are requiring all or a significant portion of employees to work from home or not go into their offices. While many of our employees can effectively perform their responsibilities while working remotely, some work is not well-suited for remote work, and that work may not be completed as efficiently as if it were performed on site. Additionally, we may be exposed to unexpected cybersecurity risks and additional information technology-related expenses as a result of these remote working requirements.

Illness, travel restrictions or other workforce disruptions could adversely affect our supply chain, our ability to timely and satisfactorily complete our clients’ projects, our ability to provide services to our clients or our other business processes. Even after the COVID-19 pandemic subsides, we could experience a longer-term impact on our operating expenses, including, for example, due to the need for enhanced health and hygiene requirements or the periodic revival of social distancing or other measures in one or more regions in attempts to counteract future outbreaks.

We have furloughed certain employees and may need to further furlough or reduce the number of employees that we employ. We may experience difficulties associated with hiring additional employees or replacing employees, in particular with respect to roles that require security clearances or other special qualifications that may be limited or difficult to obtain. Increased turnover rates of our employees could increase operating costs and create challenges for us in maintaining high levels of employee awareness of and compliance with our internal procedures and external regulatory compliance requirements, in addition to increasing our recruiting, training and supervisory costs.

In addition to existing travel restrictions implemented in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, jurisdictions may continue to close borders, impose prolonged quarantines and further restrict travel and business activity, which could materially impair our ability to support our operations and clients (both domestic and international), to source supplies through the global supply chain and to identify, pursue and capture new business opportunities, and which could continue to restrict the ability of our employees to access their workplaces. We also face the possibility of increased overhead or other expenses resulting from compliance with any future government orders or other measures enacted in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The COVID-19 pandemic has increased volatility and pricing in the capital markets, and that increased volatility is likely to continue. While we recently entered into a new term loan facility under our revolving credit facility and borrowed an aggregate principal amount of $730,000,000 and our subsidiary Jacobs U.K. borrowed an aggregate principal amount of £250,000,000, we might not be able to access further sources of liquidity on acceptable pricing or borrowing terms if at all. Our credit facilities contain customary covenants restricting, among other things, our ability to incur certain liens and indebtedness. We are also subject to certain financial covenants, including maintenance of a maximum consolidated leverage ratio. A breach of any covenant or our inability to comply with the required financial ratios, whether as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business or otherwise, could result in a default under one or more of our credit facilities and limit our ability to do further borrowing. Any inability to obtain additional liquidity as and when needed, or to maintain compliance with the instruments governing our indebtedness, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We operate in many countries around the world, and certain of those countries’ governments may be unable to effectively mitigate the financial or other impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on their economies and workforces and our operations therein.

The global spread of the COVID-19 pandemic and the responses thereto are complex and rapidly evolving, and the extent to which the pandemic impacts our business, financial condition and results of operations, including the duration and magnitude of such impacts, will depend on numerous evolving factors that we may not be able to accurately predict or assess. COVID-19, and the volatile regional and global economic conditions stemming from the pandemic, as well as reactions to future pandemics or resurgences of COVID-19, could also precipitate or aggravate the other risk factors that we identify in our 2019 Form 10-K, which in turn could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. There may be other adverse consequences to our business, financial condition and results of operations from the spread of COVID-19 that we have not considered or have not become apparent. As a result, we cannot

Page 54


assure you that if COVID-19 continues to spread, it would not have a further adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The authorization for the share repurchase programs may be terminated, increased or decreased by the Company’s Board of Directors in its discretion at any time. 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, currency fluctuations, the market price of the Company's common stock, other uses of capital and other factors.
